Pcohe’s Augusta Directory is now ready, aud can be had of all Booksellers in the City, and at this office. River News.—The Steamer Express left for Savannah on yesterday, and the Baudy Moore arrived. River 18 feet and rising. Pociie's Augusta Directory is now ready, and can be had ot all Booksellers jn the City, and at this Office. Recorder’s Court.—ln this Court yesterday, an 18th section case was fined $5 and costs. And a couple of gay Lotharioi, of the colored persuasion, who had got into a difficulty about a damsel, and one had challenged the other to mortal combat, and the other had accepted the chal lenge, were bound over to the Superior Court for misdemeanor. Sad Accident.—About four o’clock yesterday evening, Mr. Philip Prcval came to his death under very distressing circumstances. He was employed at the machine works of Macmurphy & Thompson, and while oiling some of the machinery, was caught by some of the wheels and literally torn limb from limb, causing his death immediately. Mr. l’reval was, we learn, a worthy young man, and leaves relatives in the city, to mourn his untimely end. Scientific Lvcture. —We are pleased to learn that the Misses Sedgwick have secured the services of Prof. Geo. W. Rains to deliver a course of Scientific Lectures, accompanied with experi ments, before the pupils of their school. The course will commence on Friday, March loth, at half past twelve o’clock, at the lecture room of the Medical College, and will be continued every Friday, at the same hour. These lec tures will be highly interesting and instructive, and constitute anew and most valuable addition to the superior advantages afforded the pupils at the seminary of which the Misses S. are the principals. A Nice Tea Party.— A party of United States soldiers were arrested yesterday morning soon after midnight, by the city Police, while in the aet of robbing the commissary store in Warren Block. It appears that the watchman on that beat observed suspicious move ments among several soldiers in the rear ot the store before midnight, and on inquiry what so many were doing there at that hour, was told that they were “just having a little fun”. At 12 o’clock the new guard was notified to keep a lookout for the boys in blue, and in a short time several men were observed with chests of tea, mov ing stealthily away, while a stalwart guard, with gun in haud, brought up the rear. O n being halted by the I ol.ee, they pretended they were taking the tea to headqnarters. Thinking it an unreasonable time lor tea-taking at headquarters, the Policeman, whose name was Waters, rapped for help, aud ordered the tea party to halt. The valiant guard, whose name was Jones, took to hu heels, and was fired upon as he ran He was met by Policeman May, who succeeded in disarming him, but in the scuffle Jones escaped. Mean time, the tea toaters were ordered not to stir, and like good soldier, they obeyed order, and were taken in charge and lodged in the Guard House for exanvi nation. The number of soldiers impli cated in this nice little tea-part, was eeven-six of whom were “captured” and Jones is still at large. These reinforcements ‘make twelve soldiers now under confinement for civil offences. Fresh ARRivALa.-Quinn has a fresh lot of books and periodicals. Among them is Hiss Evans' “St, Elmo." the “Child's History of the Utaited States," and a great variety of periodicals. Tbs comic papers far Jbe week are unusu ally rich and amusing. I\li»h*'» Auuj;sta Dtnfecsoar is now ready, and can be bad of all Booksellers In the City, and at this" Office. Let's go FlSHUro.—We have’nt dropped a Hue into the water in ten years; bui'w# cat) truthfully aav, with brother Black, of the Eufaula uVetrs, that it there ever was a time wliea we felt like turning from the cares of busy life aud seeking the dreamy yet happy forgetfulness of the angler, now is that lime. If you want to forget the world aud its care, go a-fiahing. Han is born a gamester, or, to put it mildly, a specu lator. Asa boy he gambles for mar bles or pennies at pitch-and-toss, or risks his top at peg-in the-ring, or gives his tender mind to the tnyteries of *• swapping." Asa man of buniness, he speculates on a grander scale, that’s all. Well, fishing is all a lottery. Thero is a glorious uncertainty about it that ap peals to the gambling instincts of hu manity. The blanks are many, the prizes comparatively few, and the pas time has the rare merit of being at once innoceut and exciting. The angler, while awaiting the result of his subse quent investment loses sight of all his graver ventures. No thought of the sharks, gudgeons, or suckers of the mart crosses his mind as he sits watch bis float or cork—the silent atmosphere that keeps en rapport with the fishy world over which it is suspended. His whole mind is concentrated upon the cork. His rod and line are simply arti ficial combinations of his nervous sys tem. A bite thrills every fibre of his frame, accelerates the circulation of his blood, and even quickens the peristaltic motion of his bowels. Lay your linger gently upon an an gler's pulse wheu engaged in his voca tion. In bis abstraction he will be un conscious of your touch, and the instant the float bobs you will feel the artery bound. In short, there is nothing that so completely enchains and enthralls all the observing faculties as fishing. There is one objection to the sport how ever ; it sometimes, tor example, when a “socdologer" snaps the line at the criti cal moment, leads to the use of unhal lowed interjections. We have known very exemplary persons to ventilate their vexation in a volley of profane expletives on such occasions. Let us hope that when the ministering angels report cases ot this nature in Heaven’s Chancery, the recording angel puts the ejaculations in the same categoiy with uncle Toby'3 oath, and wipes them out with a sympathizing tear. We are sure he does, if he has ever been a fishing ; for to lose a noble trout, cat or perch, after he is fairly hooked, is enough to provoke even an angel. An Enterprising City. —The value of property which the city of Augusta, Maine, gives to the Spragues to estab lish manufactures there is $552,000. The city bonds, amounting to $250,000, have been taken to Boston and New York where their sale will be negotia ted.—Lxcliange. In the City of Augusta, Georgia, the policy has been to charge manufacturing establishments largely for land rents and water rights, and we understand it is under consideration to increase the rates heretofore exacted. We commend the example of her Maine namesake, to the City Fathers of our City, as worthy of consideration. Few places in the country have a Gner water power than this City, and jt used to its full capacity, would soon put anew phase owthe busi ness prospects of the place. Telegraphic Error. —We find the following despatch in the New York Sun: Augusta, Ga.. March 4. Meetinge are being called to consider the recommendations of Gov. Brown. Public opinion is divided ; three fourths of the papers are in favor of the accept ance ; but the majority ot the people are stronzly opposed to it. We presume this despatch should have read three or four papers—instead of three tourths—though that was short of the number, as nearly a dozen papers of the State favor tho recommendation of the Governor, aud we believe that a large majority of the people also em brace it, and are anxious for prompt action. Nrw Order is Charleston. —We find the following general.order in the News of yesterday : H'dq’rs, Dept, of the South, j Charleston, S.

The amendment gave rise to mo earnest debate. The ohief argument in its favor being that suck a vote favoring a convention would make it constitutional. It was opposed principally on account o f opening tbe door for delay and irregularity in restoring tbe States to representation. Tbe debate Indioated that a majority 00a sidored early restoration vital to the finan cial interests of the country, and a matter too important for technical trifling. Mr. Johnson doubted tbe long existenee of the Government with ten States out. Mr. Morton opposed the rebels to say whether they desired a convention. The amendment was defeated.
