BY ALT HR EDO. 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: Mid. to Strict Mid 30 ® Good Mid. to Mid. Fair 31 ® . RECAPITULATION.
