River News.— The Two Boys arrived on Saturday. The Julia St. Clair ar rived last night, and the Two Boys will leave to day. The Hard Titties is still at the wharfi Cohen’s. —One of the most popular places in town, unquestionably, is the boot and shoe store of M. Cohen, oppo site the Augusta Hotel. He has all kinds and sizes. f Edinburgh Ai.e. —We are indebted to Mr. Beavor (of the Old Shades Sa loon, Ellis street), lor a fine snniple of the above Ale, which good judges pro nounce No. 1. Auction Salks. —Attention is di rected to the sale at the Market to-day by Day & Inman, of a house aud lot on Calhoun street, between Washington and Centre. They also sell valuable property in the Mnuge Surrey, includ ing a handsome cottage residence. Bobbins. —While bobbin' round the other day, in search of an item, we bobbed in at the bobbin factory of Mr. H. T. Nelson, on the Canal. He is turning out an excellent article, which has been used and approved by some of our leading factories. Impeachment. —A dispatch from New York, to the editor of the Mobiie A‘J- m veitiser, on the 24th instant, La ter and better advices from Washing ton leave me in no doubt whatever that President Johnson will be impeached and removed. Criminal Law in Maryland.— Which is the most indulgent, to sentence a negro to two years hard labor on a farm, for felony, or a white man to two years hard labor in a State prison ? This is the difference between the treat, ment of black and white criminals iti Maryland which the assumed friends of the negroes try out against. It is the white uian who should complain. M. M. Benjamix. —We welcome to our columns the announcement of a resumption of his old business, at the old stand of Benjamin & Goodrich, by M. M. Benjamin, Agent. He has a large stock of furniture, embracing everything necessary to a complete outfit, which he will sell at the lowest living prices. Mr. Benjamin is too well known as a furniture dealer to need any further endorsement than the simple announcement that he is again in the trade. A Good Idea.—A wedding took place in Raleigh recently among the upper crust ’ ot darkeydom, at which the guests, receiving the usual cards of invitation, were required to pay an en trance fee of five dollars, and alter en tering the charmed precincts, were re quired to expend five dollars more in refreshments. This money was turned over to the bride and groom, who had taken this method of raising money t 0 start on their journey of life. Indian Troubles.—A telegram from Idaho says that General Crook has re turned to Fort Lyon with one hundred prisoners and thirty six horses that be had captured. A great many Indians were killed, though the number is not staled. A big fight is expected soon. The Salt Lake VidtUe contradicts the report of the murder by Indians of a party of New Mexican miners, who were out prospecting. The missing party have returned to the settlements, and report rich deposits of gold as having been discovered by (hem. Market Sales. —Don't forget the sales of valuable property,at the Market Ibis morning. C. V. Walker A Cos., Day A Inman, Maj. Thompson, Gas. Parker, and Sheriff Ley? all have a plate in picture. ,*nd “will speak a piece” on the occasion. Desirable Residence.—Several de sirable pieces of city property are to be sold at the Market to day. Among these the resaleuoe ol Mrs. Rogers, neag thq market, it'worthy-of especial notice. The lot ia unusually large, extending fui ty feet more thaa half way to Rey nolds street, and haying a front of over eighty feet. The Blodgett house, on Telfair street, and the outrage on the Mauge property, will also be sold—both very desirable places. Pleased. —The Baltimore Skii says the Radicals express considerable grati fication at the Outavorable action of the Southern Legislatures on the Con stitutional Amendment proposed by Congress last summer. They say that it is not strong enough, and after the passage of Mr. Sumner’s, or some simi lar resolution, excluding the Southern States from the right of participating in the adoption of Amendments to the Constitution, it is the intention of the majority to submit an amendment of a much more stringent nature. “Hobson’s Choice." —The genera significance put upon this term is that there is but one from which to select, and, therefore, Hobson’s choice is no choice at all. The origin of the term puts a somewhat different meaning upon it—signifying simply to take one’s turn —first come, firstserved. It arose from one Hobson, a livery stable keeper at Cambridge, England, who, to keep his customers front wrangling over a choice of horses, obliged them to take the horse that stood next the stable door, or take none at all. The Use of Sugar. —This sacharine luxury, which has become an indispens able article of daily use, even with the poorest people, was, for many centuries, used only as a medicine. It was origin ally brought from Arabia, and was un known among the Romans before the time of Nero. But little over a century ago it was considered a luxury, even among the rich, and it was not until slave labor developed the rich soil of the West Indies and the Gulf States, that it became an article of daily use among all classes. Rev. W. H. Harrison. — We under stand that this eminent divine is looked upon as the successor ol the late la mented Right Bev. Stephen Elliott, Bishop of this Diocese. The mantle ol the illustrious Prelate could not fall upon one more worthy te wear it, and who would “adorn the office” with more Christian zeal ana fervent piety. The Episcopal Church contains in her mem bership no one better qualified for the position, and we trust that the selection will be made. Paradise Lost. —Tho beautiful Pano rama of the Apocalypse and Paradise Lost is now on exhibition at Concert Hall. It has received the commenda tion of all who have seen it; and is really a splendid work of art. It will he on exhibition this week, and all who admire the beautiful in art, should go and see this painting. Secured seats can be obtained, on application, at J. C- Schreiner & Son’s, Broad street. The business manager is Mr. Warren, a courteous and energetic gentleman. Rogue’s Gallery.—The City Council of Montgomery ha3 authorized the Mar shal to establish a rogue’s gallery in that city, where pictures of notorious thieves shall be on exhibition. We have very little U3e for such an institu tion in our virtuous City, though it might be well to have one, in which to show off the scamps from such places as Montgomery and Atlanla. Recorder’s Court. —There was a very large attendance at this tribunal of justice yesterday moruimr. A gentleman who had violated the 18th section in this way, paid $3 and costs for it, viz : He agreed to bring a load of wood for which he was paid in advance; but tbe purchaser didn't want “goom” wood, and so wouldn’t take it. The woodseller replied that he had no “oakery “wood, and so pro ceeded to deposit what he hud on his customers premises. Customer picked up a stick, walloped the horse, woodseller started to wallop the customer, aud hence the row. A couple of gentlemen who had been each occupying both sides of the pave ment “to oncet,” and got their legs tangled up somehow or another, so that the policeman had to untangle them, were each fined $2.50 and costs. One of them observed that that was “cheap enough.” Well it might be for once, but it wouldn’t do for a common A John Gilpin, for riding over the 17th section, was fined $3 and costs. A colored woman, with a masculine name, who had some fuss with a man who had married her daughter, was up. She wanted to take her daughter home, but the groom was up to stiuff, and had everything fixed up legally, so the “cruel parient” contented herself with hammering him on the head with a brick. Groom took it patiently; and the Recorder found the “cruel parient” $lO aud costs. Another colored case, of 18th section style, was fined sls and costs. And a very highly colored case, of the same character, was fined S4O or ninety days’ work on the streets, A couple of women who had had some fuss with children—one of them choked a child, etc., were up for trial. One was fined $5 aud costs and the other dismissed. That Bonus. —The priaciplo excuse offered by tho “old and respectable’’ dailies, for charging us SI,BOO (or the privilege of uteri*} the telegraphic news with them, was that Mr. Craig bad decided that such a sum would be just. We do not know what Mr. Craig’s de cision in our case may have been, but we do know that he decided very.differ ently in reference to one of the old papers. For some time after the close of the war, the Constitutionalist took .the dispatches exclusively. The Chron iole <f- Sentinel at length applied for them, and the business manager of the Comtilulionalist wrote to Mr. Craig, urging that it had been very expensive for the Constitutionalist to pay for the uews, and that he could not afford to have the advantages of telegraph nevrt shared by another. Mr. Craig .very cooHy replied that he had no doubt that il the Constitutionalist could not afford to share the news with others, that papers tcould be started t cho couUi do it —and the telegraphic reports were furnished to the Chronicle & Sentinel without any bonus. And yet that es tablishment joined in the demand of SI,OOO from us, after a precedent to the contrary had been established in its own case. Vert Clever. —The Tribune has the following summary of young Beimels’ hobnobbing with royalty: “James and Alfred, were two good hoys, who had little ships, and Jame’s ship sailed ever the pond. Alfred was so glad that he asked James to dinner, and they had gingerbread. So James offered to give Alfred his little ship, as a proof that all James’ countrymen were so glad Alfred had given him gucb..a nice dinner. But Alfred wouldn t take the little ship be. cause it was too good for him, and so both boys were glad, and hoped their families would never quarrel. The Hayes Lidkl Case. —The case of Solomon Cohen vs. John E. Hayes, Editor and Proprietor of the Savannah Republican, for libel, was tried on Fri day, in the Superior Court of Savannah. The News says that the Soliaitor Gen eral, Mr. Smith, for the prosecution, aud Hon. Julian Hartridge for the defence, having delivered their arguments on Thursday, the case was closed before the jury on Friday, by Hon. E. J. Har den for the prosecution, and Col. Henry S. Fitch, United States District Attorney, for the defence. At the close of the ar gument of counsel the Court took a recess till 3 o'clock, when Judge FleinJ ing gave the case to the jury. The jury were in deliberation some thirty minutes, whep they returned into Court with a verdict of guilty, with a recommendation of the defendant to the clemency of the Court. Mr. Hartridge, after the rendering of the verdict, made a motion for anew trial, which was overruled by the Court. Mr. H., then gave notice of his intention to take the case up by appeal. What the Ledger Says. —The Weekly Ledger, not Bonner's, but a spicy sheet, published in the pleasant town of Fort Valley, Ga., thus aliudes to our paper: The Daily Press.— This Augusta daily is one of the most welcome and sprightly of our exchanges, and is fur nished to subscribers at the very low price ot $5 a year. We regret to see that its proprietor had to pay the two other City papers a bonus of SI,OOO, for the privilege of publishing the tele graphic news. With the lights before us, this looks like an unjust act. The success of his paper has been such, that Mr. Pughe paid the sum at once, determined to keep the Daily Press up tfi the standard of a live newspaper. Shortly afterward, the proprietors of tho other two papers gave a supper to to their employees and the attaches of the telegraph office, to which no invita lion was given to the proprietor and employees of the Daily Press. This was the "unkindest cut of all.” We wish Mr. Pugbe unbounded success. AUGUSTA MARKET. Monday, Feb. 4—P. M. COTTON—The market is exceeding dull —holders refusing to concede to the views of buyers, who require a cent decline on last week’s prices. Quotations are, there fore, nominal.

Glass & Cos., bankers, and a prom inent stock firm of Cincinnati, have suspended. These two failures have created much excitement. —The homeless boys of London are to he turned into sailors, the Admiralty having provided a training ship for the purpose. —ln Massacbuseets during the year, 231,690 barrels of mackerel were in spected —a decrease of 25,099 barrels since the previous year. —The Empress Eugenie ia becoming visibly older, and has serious appreben sions of growing stout. To prevent this she wulks much and drinks vinegar. —A scaffold forty feet in height, at West Milford, near Paterson, N. J.,.gave way on Fridav last, precipitating several workmen to the ground, killing one and seriously injuring several others. Bji lege apt). TO THE AHfIOCIATBDPREHS. FROM WASHINGTON. Congressional.
