Sweat Zephyr, yon've coma back to-day
A» true M Noah's do»o;
You took my massage far away,
And brought me back her leva.
Ah, ne I if you but know tha blits
Yaa to my soul impart!
00, take her my affecti"o's kiss—
God blest her darling heart.
Sweat Zephyr, linger yet awhile,
And tell to me, once more,
The magic of her wondrous smile,
The witchery of her lore.
Yet go, go swiftly on your way,
And toll her, once again,
That while I feel, through her, love’s sway
I'm happiest of men.
Hist! gentle Zephyr, ere you’re gone,
Tell her she is my pride,
My boast, ambition’s dawn,
Salvation’s holy guide;
That I, like Christians whoe’er claim
A Guardian Angel’s care,
Forever breathe her hallowed name
Within my soul of prayer.
A Hukpred and Fifty Dollars
Worth or AdmiraT!os.—A gentleman
who saw Kistori’s performance of “ Marie
Stuart,” iu Chicago, thus sums up the
affair:
Riston was not a whirlwind to night.
She was a gentle girl from the South,
sweet and weak. Asa matter of course,
I adored her. If I didn’t I should be
tray my ignorance of Italian, which,
between you aud I, I don't understand
in the least. If I say her acting is su
perb, I show at once that I am a thor
rough Italian scholar, and a judge of
jjcod acting. New York has said so,
and shall Chicago say “ nay ?” My
wife admires Ristori. She has shown it
by making me pay for anew bonnet
aud an opera cloak. In other words I
admire Ristori to the extent of $l5O.
Had I been single, I should have ad
mired her in Mane Stuart to the extent
of $1 .50. So much for being married.
I think (contidently speaking) that the
play would have been a great deal bet
ter if the second and fourth acts had
been entirely omitted. Ristori does not
appear in them. When the rest of the
compauy appear with Ristori, one par
dons them—she seems so much the bet
ter. When they appear alone, one goes
to take a drink; that adds -to the ex
pense of the tiling.
What’S Pleasanter than Social
Singing ?—When friends meet and the
lively word and social jest are interim::-
glad with the voice of song, the spirit
throws cffcareatid thought and recreates
itself that it may be better fitted for the
hour of toil. Those who are able to
meet at stated times and spend an hour
in the practice of music, lose much by
neglecting to do so. There is not a
hamb-t or a village, hardly a country
place, where a singing class may not be
formed and music practiced ; and this,
too, not as a task, but as a source of
deep, heartfelt pleasure. The desider
atum for such classes fs simple, home
music, such ns stirs the heart, and causes
its depths to well forth in gladness and
joy, or to sympathize in pensive thought.
And this music should be new, else we
tire by too much repetition ; and various
in kind and subject, else some chords
of the heart are left untouched. What
can supply this desideratum hut period
icals devoted to the cultivction of the
art? And who would forego such ad
vantages when a little exertion would
secure them ?
Kissing the Wrong Man.—The
Petersburg (Va.) Express tells the
follow ing good story :
A modest young gentleman from the
country, while passing aloi g one of our
streets yesterday, met two young ladies
—to him perfect strangers. He evi
dently resembled some handsome and
favorite cousin of theirs, for as soon as
they laid eyes on him, they gave liiin a
very cordial greeting, expressed them
selves as very glad to see “tousin
John,” and extending two pairs of very
tempting lips in token of their sincerity.
It was not until the kisses had been
given and received that the fair ones
discovered their mistake, though the
gentleman in question saw it from the
beginning. Yet was he so overcome
by his unexpected fortune that it was
gome time ere he recovered his pres
ence of mind. It's an ill wind that
blows good to nobody ; what “cousin
John” missed iu this instance somebody
else got.
Just What We Thisk.—The New
York World says:
If the President is capable of yield
ing, it would have been better to have
saved the country from this long tur
moil by yielding long ago. By his vig
orous opposition to Congress he has ex
asperated the Radicals, and educated
the South into stubbornness. At an
earlier stage the South would have sub
mitted more easily, and Congress have
been less exacting. The Prcsideht. can
not justify himself either morally or
logically in keeping everything at logger
heads for so long a period, if the quar
rel is to he settled at last by Congress
having its own way. He should either
not yield at all, or have yielded sooner,
and have avoided all this -gratuitous
mischief.
—Prince Arthur, a younger son of
Queen Victoria, has passed a highly
satisfactory examination before the
Council of Military Education, and will
join the Royal Military Academy in
February.
—The following political argument
appeared recently in a Parkersburg,
West Virginia, paper : ‘‘Vote for
General Karns for Mayor, who was ten
years old before he either wore pants or
shoes.”
—The list of salaries paid the civil
officers of Galveston, Texas, reveals
some curious tacts. The Mayor is paid
only $1,200 per annum ; while the mar
ket cleaner and captain of the night
watch each get SI,BOO.
A cat recently got into the large
cylinder of the Hoe press of the North
British Mail, newspaper. The unfortu
nate puss remained quiet for two revo
lutions, when she fell under it upon the
“forms,” and was “distributed over
them.
—Minnesota contains a multitude of
lakes, which, besides watering every
portion of it, are supposed to exert a
modifying influence on the climate.
They certainly add greatly to the face
of tho country. Nearly half the farm
houses can be built on the banks of
beautiful sheets of water.
. AUGUSTA MARKETS.
AWtWA |
Mff* It should tx kora* <* mind that our I*o
- represent wholesale prices. Smalt Mill, to
Planters and others, art fitted at a shade higher
rafts.
'HKMARICB.
We have to report another quiet week In all de
partment aof bualneM. floods which were detained
by the Interruption of navigation, aoma week* ago,
have been coming In rather In excess of the de
mand. and the market exhibits an easier tone.
The declining tendeucy of Cotton has ad
ded to the depression In general merchandise.
The weather has been so favorable for farming
operation* that few planters have been ill the
market, and business baa bean chiefly confined to
filling small orders for the local trade. The de
mand for fertilisers has been active, and indicates
a large increase over former years. We are pleased
to observe that arrangements are being made by
some dealers to supply planters on time, where
satisfactory acceptances on the coming crop can
be arranged.
iri^A.NCIAI-..
Notwithstanding the large amount received from
the sales of Cotton, money continues exceedingly
scarce. This results, in a great degree, from the
heavy purchase ol Com and Bacon, and other ex
expenditures necessary to repair damage and
dilapidation incident to the war. The unsettled
and unpromising aspect of political affairs con
tinues to deter foreign capital from seeking invest
ment here, and loans can only be effected at very
high rates of interest. We have marked down our
quotations for Stocks and Bonds, for which there is
very little demand. Our last quotations for Gold
were 137 to 130; and for Silver, 130 to 133. There
has been little change during the week, and
transactions have been limited. Our quotations at
the close aro as follows:
Gold, buying 1 38
Gold, selling 1 S9@l 40
Silver, buying 1 30
Silver, selling 1 33
The Banks continue to check on the North at par.
Brokers charge }4 to A*c. off; thirty day bills I>£
per cent, off; sixty day bills off.
PROVISIONS.
BACON.—The receipts of New Bacon halve been
fair, and under the limited inquiry, prices are
easier. We have revised our quotations as follows;
Shoulders, 13#ti>14c ; B. B. Sides, 15c.; Cleur
Bibbed Sides, 15#®16c.; Clear Sides,
Hams, 15@18c.: Hry Salted Meat, Clear Sides,
14H@14^c.; Clear Ribbed, 14^14>sc.
LARD —Is steady at previous quotations—stocks
being about equal to the demand.
FLOUR. —There is a good demand for Flour at
previous quotations. See table.
BUTTER.—The market is well supplied with
Northern and Western brands, and prices are
rather easier. Country Butter has declined, and is
in only moderate request at 25@30c.
EGGS—Continue to come in freely, and have
decliued to 20(a£25c.
RICE-—The supply is about equal to the de
mand, but the recent advance in Charleston, with
the limited production, has caused some improve
ment in prices, and we quote at 12}£@13c.
GRAIN.
CORN.—The demand for Com has somewhat
slackened, and under large receipts, prices are a
shade lower. We quote at depot, $1.45@1.45;
from store, $1.50® 1.55, as to quality.
HAY.—Stocks are quite low, and under a con
tinued demand, prices are stiff, at $2.50(&2 75 for
Northern and Eastern, and I2.00&2 25 for home
cured.
POTATOES—Are in active request, at $6.00@
6.50 per barrel.
OATS.—The supply is in excess of the demand,
and prices are lower. We quote; $1.00(u:1.10.
Some choice lots are held at higher rates, and arc
taken in a small way for seed at $1.20(^1.25.
ClDEß.—Prime Newark City has slightly ad
vanced, and is quoted at $lB. Some grades of
Northern may be had lower.
S CJN DRIES.
APPLES.—-The market is pretty well
aud prices take a wide range. Good Northern
be had at $6 00 to 700 per barrel. Some choice
lots are quoted higher.
BAGGING AND ROPE—Are entirely neglected,
and quotations are nominal.
SAL l\—The demand is over for the season, and
prices are weak. We still quote Livoipool, $2 50.
FERTILIZERS—Trade in artificial manures is
very active, at ti e quotati ons given in our tilde,
to which we reier. Stocks are large, ami a. rivals
are constantly coming in.
MOLASSES.—Stocks of Cuba Molasses have
been increased during the week, uiul are about
equal to the demand. See table.
AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS—Our dealers
are well supplied with the most approved kinds of
fanning tools, which are offered at reasonable
prices.
DRUGS AND MEDICINES.-Stocks are adequate
to the wants of the country, and dealers and physi
cians will do well to avail themselves of this
market in their spring purchases.
DRY GOODS, BOOTS, SHOES, ETC.—We are
pleased to observe increased attention to the
wants of the trade in these branches of business,
and interior dealers will, we believe, find it to their
interest to replenish their stocks here, from time
to time, instead of making heavy purchases in the
larger markets, under the fluctuations in currency,
and the uncertainties of the future.
COTTON.
We left the market quiet at the close of our last
report, at the following quotations: Middling, 3Uc.;
Strict Middling, 30*c.; Good Middling, 31c.
The sales on Saturday were 106 bales. Receipts,
250 bales.
On Monday, the market opened soft, and 308
bales were sold at prices indicating a decline of a
half to one cent. Strict Middlings were quoted at
30c. Receipts, 164 bales.
On Tuesday, the maiket was quiet, with a fair
demand, and sales of 253 bales were reported, at
about 30c. for Middling. Receipts, 145 bales.
On Wednesday, there was a good demand in the
forenoon, with some improvement in prices, but in
the afternoon there was an easier feeling, and we
still quoted Middling at 30c. Sales, 353 bales.
Receipts, 241 bales.
On Thursday, there was an active inquiry in the
morning, but Liverpool and New York advices
caused a depression in the afternoon, and Middling
would not bring over 29>.c.
On Friday, there was a moderate inquiry, and
the day being observed a3 a holiday, we did not
obtain the particulars.
The market opened irregular this morning, and we
give the following as the ruling quotations at the
close:
