A little care every year in this matter will soon add greatly to the beauty and comfort of the City. Concert Hall. —The pupils of Mad ame Ballot will give an entertainment at Concert Ilali, this evening, for her benefit. It will consist of piano music, duetts, etc., by children ranging from five to twelve years of age and will no doubt be very interesting. We bespeak for Mrs. Ballot, a full bouse.

Spring-Like. —The weather has been delightfully Springlike for the past week, and the trees are putting forth their leaves serf rapidly. Nature, in short, is wearing her most gracious smiles, and treating us to a glimpse of her beauty a little in advance of the season. M ell, it helps the poor and gladdens the hearts ot all. Let us be thankful for it. ImNiktant Telegram. —A cable tel egram was received on Wednesday, by Coleuel Ellis, President of the .lames River and Kanawha Company, from M. E. De Bellot, stating that the Societe Cenerale, of Paris, had agreed to fur nish the maximum capital of $40,000,000 required for the Virginia Canal Com pauy.

English's Patent Tweezer. —We have been presented by the manufac turer’s agent, Mr. H. L. Backus, with a uuique little article, known as ‘‘Eng lish’s combined knife, tweezer, and ear spoon." It combines all these articles in oue, and is also very useful tor ladies iu drawing through the thread on a sewing machine. It is the neatest Yankee notion we have seen, and is bound to come into general use. Whole sale depot at 15 Mclntosh street. Entertainment of the Augusta Benevolent Society. —The dramatic entertainment at Clara's Hull last night for the benefit of the poor of Richmond county, was a brilliant Buccess. The bill presented was Taylor’s Comedy of “Still Water Runs Deep,” and Morton’s capital Farce of “Poor Pillicoddy.” The dramatis persons consisted of ladies and geutlemen of this City; and while, we do not feel authorized to indulge in a critical review of the performance, it is but just to say that all the principal characters were sustained with admira ble tnsto and spirit, and some of the delineations were highly artistic. The audience, which was large and select, evinced their appreciation by hearty and frequent applause. Shooting a Policeman. —About half past seven o’clock last night, Mr. Jones, Proprietor of the Augusta Hotel, called ou Policeman Dewaii to arrest and take off his son, John Jones, who was be having in a most disorderly manner in the Hotel. At the suggestion of Mr. Jones. Mr. Dcwao called another Po liceman, Mr. T. Callahan, to his aid, and they entered the Hotel together. As they approached young Jones he told them to stand back, and com menced shooting a self-cocking re volver, first at one, then the other. The first shot struck Mr. Callahan in the breast, near the region of the heart, and, as was afterwards learned, glanced around unde* the arm. One of the other shots passed between the arm of Dewan and his body. By the time the fourth shot was fired, Mr. Dewan had succeeded in knocking him down and disarming him, when he was taken to the Guard House, where he will be held tor examination. The coolness of these officers under the exciting circumstances of the arrest, elicited the admiration of all who were present. Emigration to Venezuela.—Atten tion is directed to the special notice of Col. A. T. Kudler, who has been ap pointed Agent for the Venezuela Com pany. From the evidence he has sub m.tted to ns, it appears to present a very desirable field for those who have determined to leave our torn and strick en section. Upon the payment of S6B in gold, poor ex-Confederates can secure passage to Venezuela, and a grant to 1.280 acres of land. Shares of stock in the Company will he sold for SIOO, with a land coupon attached, entitling the holder to 160 acres ot land. The sec' lion of country granted to the company is very large—two or three times as large as the State ot Georgia—hence these liberal terms are held out as in ducements. Col. Rudler, who is famil iar with Central America, informs us that the climate of Venezuela is delight ful, and the soil most productive. When companies of 50, 100 or more are made up, vessels will be sent to any port for them. Any other information desired may be obtained of Col. Rudler. ' California Floor. —Last Saturday a firm in Portland, Me., received a lot of California flour, forty days from San Francisco. It came in sacks of fifty and one hundred pounds each, in capi tal order, the flour being put first into cotton sacks, and then these sacks being placed in gunny bags. Portland papers state that flour can be obtained quicker from San Francisco than it can be from Chicago, railroad facilities from the West being so very poor. Steamboat Explosion. —The Mem phis Avalanche, of the 20th, says that the steamboat David White, which lelt New Orleans on Thursday night for Louisville, with 300 passengers and 500 tons ol freight for Nashville and Louis ville, exploded her port boiler on Sun day noon, near Columbia, 225 miles North of that city. The forward part of the boat was literally torn to atdms, and many of the passengers and crew were blown one hundred feet in the air, together with fragments of the boat. The scene is described as heart-rend ing ; the clothes were blown off of some of the officers. Capt. Kinney was hurled one Hun dred feet in the air, and lauded in the river much bruised and scalded. The clerk of the boat reported a loss of sixty-five passengers, many of whose names are unknown, as the books are lost. John Plaster, who was assaulted by some parly or parties unknown, near At lanta, ou Friday, has died of his wounds. Mew Books The Open Polsr Son; A Karrative of a Vay »*« of Dweovafjr, tuiraiils the North Pole, in She UehaoMr I’nited Bute./' by Dr. J. J. Have., New York. Pnbli.hetl by Hurd A Houghton, 401 Broadway. 18*7. We have received from the publishers a copy of thia interesting work. It is a detail of adventures in a region of the globe so little known, that it possesses a novelty as troll as a general interest on account of style. Dr. Hayes is a pleasing writer, and has woven a web of narrative that cannot fail to gratify all who read it. The work itself is got ten up in a style at once handsome and substantial—a style which characterizes all the publications of Messrs. Hurd A Houghton. We advise all who are seek ing for something new, instructive, and interesting In literature, to purchase a copy of "The Open Polar Sea." It is for sale at George A. 0 ites’ Book and Music Store in this City. Hymns in Prose for Children. By Mrs. Bnr bnuld, author of “Lessons for Children," Illustrated. New York : Hurd A Hough ton, 401 Broadway. London : John Mur ray. 1857. This is a handsomely printed, hand somely illustrated, and handsomely bound volume, designed for the instruc tion of children. The authoress takes the position that ‘‘children should be kept from reading verse ’till they are able to relish good verse.” and hence she has arranged the hymns in an easy and rythmical and pleasing style of prose, which cannot fail to please the youthful mind, while the engravings are profuse and attractive. Tho Thirty-third Psalm. Hurd A Hnngh ton Publishers, 401 Broadway, New York, 1866. In this publication we have a very attractive specimen of the Lithographic Art. On each page is one verse of the thirty third Psalm, in a colored orna mental border, constituting altogether a volume suitable for a present, or for a parlor ornament, Mr. Oates has these publications for sale. [communicated.] A CARD. Mayor's Oefice, 1 Augusta, Ga., Feb. 25, 1861. j The undersigned acknowledges the receipt of Thirty Two Dollars, ftom the Messrs. Hanlon, being one half the gross receipts of the entertainment given by these gentlemen at Concert Hall, ou Saturday evening last, for the benefit of the poor of this City. Respectfully, John Foster, A. A Field for Bachelors.—The follow ing circular has been issued by com mand of Gen. Grant: “Hereafter none but unmarried men, who arc not less than five feet five inches in height, will be enlisted into tho Army of the United States for any arm o! the service.” It would seem by this that an abun dance of men are offering themselves for the regular army; and that the mil itary authorities are able to discriminate in a manner impossible to any other country of the world. The "Di.d New York Times says that advices from Rio Jan eiro state that a disturbance had occur red between the emigrants in Brazil from the United States. A party of Northerners attacked and attempted to burn a saw mill belonging to the South erners. To Maimed Soi.niEits —B. A. Thorn ton, Esq., of Columbus, announces in the Suit of that city, that he will give the necessary information and aid to any maimed soldier who may desire to enter either of the Colleges at Athens, Ox ford, Mercer, Oglethrope, or Bowden, under a recent act of the Legislature to educate free of charge this patriotic and unfortunate class. A Freight Gorge. —At last aceonnts, The Virginia and Tennessee Railroad was unable to remove the freight that had accumulated at Bristol, and the President of the East Tennessee and Virginia Road had notified Western shippers that he would receive no more freight for the present. Merchants in upper Georgia and Alabama, are inter ested in this notice, GEORGIA ITEMS. The Greensboro Herald alludes to the .great mortality among the freedmen in that vicinity—especially among chil dren. The young men from Rome, recently imprisoned in Atlanta, received quite an ovatiou from their friends on their release. The number of ears which arrived in Atlanta over the State road last week was 950, with 7,600 tons of freight— the largest business ever done, save perhaps while it was used as a military road by the United States. A gentleman in Hawkinsville, Ga., has just bartered two bushels of peas for a dog. It is not mentioned that he has any peace. The Brunswick Courier says, having still no mails, it goes to press without news —never expects any—don’t want any: The country, the editor says, has gone to the Devil anyhow, and the less our people hear of the transactions ol that mongrel set, yclept Congress, the less they will have to deprecate. Richard Pounds, freedman was killed by another Freedman named Johnson, in Macon, on Friday. They fell into a dispute over a small bill, ist which Pounds attacked Johnson, when the latter shot him.

The Committee reported an amendment taxing all qualities of Cigars five dollars a thousand which was adopted. An amend ment abolishing tho Cotton tax was rejected 65 to ®5. miscellaneous. Washington, Feb. 23. Cooper’s Minority Carolina Murder lie por says it is true that Gens. Thomas Sickles, Wood, and Baird, in their testi mony state that Courts do not administer full and impartial justice where Union men, soldiers, or freedmen, are litigants, and that these are not safe. But they, in answer to direct questions, furnish but one case in Tennessee, one in Mississippi, at Grenada, one in Louisiana, nono in Virginia, except Watson’s case, or North Carolina, Florida, Georgia, or Alabama. All testify explicitly that there is no fault to find with the Gov ernors of the respective States, or high offi cials, or Judges of the Supreme Courts, or intelligent well informed citizens. Geueral Schofield testifies that negroes are arraigned for crimes aud dealt with loniently, rather than harshly. The general feeling of the respectable people of Virginia is pity for the freedmen. The report takes strong ground against the policy and constitution ality of the proposed military governments. Hale, Stanford, Murphy, and Morris, Ministers abroad, and Consols McMath and Perry, iudignantly deny the truth of Mc- Cracken's charge, that they never permit an occasion to pass -to vilify President Johnson and Members of his Cabinet. Washington, Feb. 24.

TheTiovouue Fraud Committee closes its report with “there may be some meritorious officers in New York, Philadelphia, and Brooklyn. Nevertheless frauds are so uni. versal and gigantic, aud the morals of man ufacturers so tainted, and coirfidenee in local officers so shaken, that reorganization is deemed necessary. Washington, Fob. 25—P. M. The following confirmations were made : John M. Byres, Surveyor of Customs at Nashville ; Wm. 0. Smith, ditto at Selma : Gilbert Bogart, Collector of Customs at Washington, N. C.; John Kirkwood, Re ceiver of Money, Little Rock, Ark. FROM NEW YORK. New York, Feb. 24.
