An Opera House.—There are seve
ral projects on foot here to erect an

in this City. Between them all, it is to be
hoped that one at least will be success
ful.
The Registry List. —Gen. Green,
tbe accommodating Registry Clerk,
requests us to urge voters to come for
ward and register at once, and not wait
until the close ot the time allowed by
law to register. Comply with the Gen
eral's request.
Satchels. —The ne jilus ultra of a
tastc-lul and convenient satchel, for
gentlemen or ladies, can be found at M.
Cohen’s. They have some admirably
adapted to the wants of school bovs and
girls— the very thing for carrying
books. f
Thkatke — Fifth Week. —The una
bated interest manifested by our citi

Mr. and Mrs. Watkins and their stea

some attractive novelties will be pre
sented. ’ j>-

these approved fertilizers in any desired

The Head Centre, Stephens, has
fizzled out in a very short time. His
career in this country was .neither ns
long nor akbrillktut a# tbni of Kossuth.
We doubt whether he made as much
money as the Hungary patriot. Kossuth
raised quite a handsome little sum here,
upoh which lie has continued to exist
abroad, and occasionally amuse his
leisure by eloquent (eliminations against
the Emperor of Austria. The Irish
should be warned by the impostures
lately practiced upon them to bewure of'
adventurers, who, under the pretence of
hunting the British lion, are only
making game of their own countrymen

New Banks. —The Charleston Courier
says anew National Bank is about to
be established in that city, with a capital
of $300,000, nnd the privilege of
making it $506,000. Assurances have
been received from the Secretary of the
Treasury that the requisite securities
would be allowed to the bank, and most
of tbe stock will be taken at tbe North.
The necessity is very groat lor more
banking facilities here, and it is probable
that if the proper steps were taken, one
could be organized.
New Daily in Atlanta. —Wm. L.
Scruggs, formerly of the Era, is about
to issue anew daily paper iu Atlanta,
to be called the Daily Opinion. He
announces in his prospectus that his
paper will contain the latest telegraphic
reports. It is fortunate for Mr. Scruggs
that the proprietors of the Atlanta pa
pers nre so very unlike the two respec
table dailies of Augusta—else he would
have a bonus, say of a thousand dollars
to pay for the privilege of dividing their
telegraphic expenses.
Remains of Captain Holland.—
The remains of Captain Gill G. Hoi
land, who was killed in the Confederate
service May 7th, 1884, near Mobile,

efficient officer. He was well known
and widely esteemed in this City, where
hj had long resided before the war.
3he funeral will take place at three
o’clock this afternoon, from tbe Ceme
tery Chapel.
After their Money.—Head Centre
Stephens, of Fenian notoriety, now savs
he never intended to commence the war
in Ireland by the Ist of January, and
that he only promised to do so, to keep
up interest in the organization. In
other words, the only way to make bis
confiding countrymen “fork over’ was
to deceive them. They will hardly be
deceived again.
Gen. Tillson.—lt is announced that,
this efficient and popular officer, who
has administered the affairs of the
Freedmen’s Bureau in Georgia with so
mnch skill, under the perplexing cir
cumstances which have surrounded him

plantation in Bryan county, and will
make Georgia his future home. He is

plished gentleman, and experienced
officer.

A Harminizino >Suuukk.—W« have
been informed that Tko proprietors of
the Constitutionalist end Chronicle
.<£•• &nti*el gave AJUQgppr on Fri
day -night ffast, at tme of the City
Hotels, at which several merchants and
others were invited. It is said to have
been a brilliant affair j and that Mr.
Stockton, of the Constitutionalist made,
a very conciliatory speech, in the tdui«el
of which he expressed himself as friend
ly disposed to all the papers,in tbe City
—that he bad no-enmity.toward any of
fheni, and wislidd them all well. We
could very well reciprocate such senti
ments, if Mr. Stockton had backed them
op with action, for actions speak loudor
than words, and are more convincing.
If he had no enmity toward the Daily
Press, or did not desire to crush it out,
why’require us to pay a bonus of SI,OOO
to himself ami Mr. Moore, lor that which
bad cost them no bonus? Thpy did not
have to pay it when they were admitted
to tbe Associated Press. The Charleston
Mercury was uot required; to pay it; and
yet tbe Daily Press was forced to give
it or do without the telegraphic news.
Was this kindness and ! conciliation?
Was it right? Was it legal? Was il
harmoni*iug to give a supper for which
our money doubtless paid, anti not in
vite ns to partake of it? These are
questions which if properly explained
might lead to conciliation and harmony,-
Wo have no enmity to gratify—no re
venge to put in execution. All that we
ask for is justice. Give us that, and
we shall be as harmonious ms possible,-
and join our coteinporaries heartily iu
working for the good of the community.
But what is the use of talking about
harmony and kindly feelings unless they
are put in practice ? That is what we
desire to know.
Yankee Decadence. —A Dr. Allen,
of Lowell, Massachusetts, has expressed
fears that the Yankee race is being run
out of New England. He says that, in
1765, Massachusetts had 222,00(1 popu
lation ; in 1860, it had 1,231,000 in
habitants;. of whom 260,000 were of
foreign birth, not including the children
of foreign parents born in Massachu
setts, the latter amounting in 1860 to
nearly 1.000 more than the entire
American population of the State. The
births of Americans, he says, are ac
tually less in number than the deaths of
Americans, and with each successive
generation, the foreign born population
and their descendants add to their nu
merical supremacy in Massachusetts.
These facts apply to all tbe other New
England States, and he argues that
ultimately the unerring progress of
events will result in what lie calls
‘■running the Yankee out ot New Eng
land.” It is probable that the same
rule holds good for all parts of the
Union, and that at present tbe people
ot foreign birth and. their descendants
are in much greater numbers in the
l ■ cited States than the descendants ot
tbe people who were American citizens
al the time of the adoption of tbe Con
stitution. Immigration has added to
our population and wealth enormously.
—Exchange.
The Chronicle and Sentinel published
the above, with tho following addenda :
Save us from the affliction. Run
them to , but not here, if you
please.
Thus, while the leading journals of
the South are pressing upon the North
the assurance that emigrants from that
section arc desired here, and will be not
only protected, but welcomed and re
ceived on terms of such social equality
as tbeir intelligence and worth deserve
—we find this “old and respectable
paper”—thrusting in the faces of emi
grants from New England taunts of the
above contemptuous and insulting char
acter. While our fields are being aban
doned, and whileour mechanical and mi
ning interests are dormant for want of
capital and labor—this “conservative or
gan” spurning tbe idea of New England
immigration says: '“Run them to
out not here if you please.”
There is no illusion in tbe article
quoted, to Radical and fanatic Yankees
—but all men from New England are
sent to-r at one dish.of the pen of
the “native Georgian,” who counsels
conservatism (?) in the columns ot the
Chronicle <4? Sentinel.
Artkmus Ward —His Life.—Arte

As on infant I attracted a great deal of
attention. The naburs would stand over

did not confine myself to truth in my
small bills, 1 have been gradually grow

a village that had none with a thousand
dollas in my pocket. Mj temperament
