Samuel Pinkerton, lute Rector of St. Paul’s Church, Sa vannah, which position he resigned, on account of the illness of his wife. He will, for the present seek the restora tion of her health, in the up-country. Hevvit;’* Globe Hotel. J. A. Pledge, Esq., of the Athens Banner, who visited Augusta last week, thus speaks of this popular house : “ It is one of the best hotels in the State. It has been recentlj renovated and refurnished.

The amusing extravaganza of the “Seven Sisters” was presented for the second time last night, and elicited unbounded applause. It will be pre sented for the third and last time to night. Daring Burglary. We learn that the dining room of one of our citizens was entered yester day morning, and a quantity of silver taken from the table. The thief made his escape, and has not been caught. From his track, it is believed to have been a lad, uot more than fifteen years old. Our citizens should keep their front doors and windows well secured, and have one or two good bull dogs in the back yird. °ur Financial Pro. peels. It is stated that the Secretary of the Treasury expresses the opinion very freely that no further reduction of the rubhc "eed be expected at present j ■"deed, chances are that the debt will lti ' ntrease d within the next three months. Crop Prosper., „. h. New \ -j r k Commercial publishes upward of two columns of reports on crop prospects, comprising one hundred nnd ten accounts, from different loeali. ics, North and South, ail of which, with or five exceptions, unite in repre ■ ting the prospect as being most encouraging, for both cereals and fruit.

From Kerry, also, ie exodus has been very great j and near y all the southern counties have suffered more or less from the same cause. The great emigration has «i itady crippled farming operations 111 of Ireland to a serious extent. Dr»rallng (he Grave* eg Jlr and .fire. Nnowdru. The pupil* of the Augusta Free School inaugurated the beautiful tribute of decorating with flowers the graves of Mr. and Mrs. Snowden, whoso long anj so arceptably presided over that insti tution. At 5 o’clock the pupils left the school, accompanied by Mr. Martin V. Calvin, Principal; Miss Florida Calvin, Assis tant in Ui* Male Department, and Miss Ellen Thomas, Assistant in the Female Department—all proceeded by Judge J. B. Bishop, John J. Cohen, and B. B. Russell, Esq., of the Board of Man ager*, and Rev. Mr. Cuthbert, pastorjof First Baptist Church. At the Cemetery the children formed iu order rouud the graves. Prayer was then offered by Mr. Cuthbert. Rev. James S. Lamar was introduced by Judge Bishop, and delivered a beautiful and eloquent address, which was attentively listened to by the children and visitors, of whom there were very many. It is contemplated to make these visits annually. It is a very tasteful and deserved tribute to the memory of those who devoted so many years to the inter ests of that institution. The children wer» neatly attired, and their bright and happy faces and orderly deport ment attracted universal attention, Promenade Concert. The Concert last uight at Masonic Hall, for the benefit of the Church of the Atonement, was a most pleasant and successlul affair. It was attended by the beauty and fashion of the City, and was an occasion of genuine enjoy ment. The tableaux were in admirable taste, and consisted of the following subjects: . 1. Needle and Pin Money. 2. Sile of the Circassian Slave. 3. Past, Present, and Future. 4. Garrack Deciding betweeu Trag edy and Cotnmedy. 5. Game ol Life. 6. Saturday Night. 8. The Siesta. They were interspersed with over tures, songs, choruses, and duets, by amateur performers, among whjch were a number of choice musical gems. A Postoffice dispensed missives of the most varied and amusing character, “from grave to gay, from lively to severe and in an adjoining room the tables groaned beneath a profusion of refreshments. Everything was admirably arranged, and reflected the highest credit upon the taste of all concerued. • ‘‘Heart YVliiwpcrt; Or Echoes of Sonar.’’—t roiii the Hu. p of the Sou 111. I have now ready for the press, a volume of poems, under the above title. The work will also include my first volume—making a book of some five hundred pages, nicely bound in cloth, and gilt, and accompanied by an en graving of the writer. A list of subscribers has been fur nished me from abroad, and 1 will be truly grateful it my friends in this City will assist in swelling the list of sub. seribera. Those who wish to do so, by giving their names and post office address, will have them sent to the publisher, and the book will be sent them > upon receipt of price, as soon as it is issued,- The Editor of this paper will receive and furnish me with the names of those who wish to subscribe. Caukie Bell Sinclair, Augusta, Ga., May, 1867. Living- for Other*. A writer truthfully observes that the world is crazy for show. There is not one person in a thousand who dares fall back on his real, simple self for power to get through the world, and exact enjoyment as he goes along. There is too much living in the eyes of other people. There is no end to the aping, the mimicry, the false airs, and tie superficial airs. It requires rare courage, we admit, to live up to one’s enlightened convictions in these days. Unless you consent to join in the gene ral cheat, there is no room for you among the great mob of pretenders. If a man dares to live within his means and is resolute in his purpose not to appear more than he really is, Jet him be applauded. There is something fresh and invigorating in such an ex ample, and we should honor and uphold such a man with all the energy in our power. The Southern Banner. James A. Sledge, Esq., for fourteen years proprietor of the Athens Banner, has temporarily retired from the man agement of the paper, for the purpose of settling up the mass of business that has accumulated on his books since he took charge of it. Mr. Thomas D. Williams has charge of the paper, and it has been changed to a semi-weekly. Our best wishes are tendered to the old and the new conductor of the paper. lonian Increasing. The London Illustrated News of May 4, says, that the births registered in London during the week ending April 27, were 2,385 children—l,24o boys, 1,145 girls. In the corresponding weeks of ten years, the increase was 2,097 weekly. The deaths registered in London during the week were 1,280. It was the 17th week of the year, and the average number of deaths for the week was 1,404. The births registered in London and twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom, for the week ending April 27, were 4,766 ; deaths, 2,768, —lt is said that the town of Cam bridge, Vermont, contained a population of only 1.800, sent to market during the 1866, 540,000 pounds ot butter, valued at over $200,000. More than sixty tuns of maple made in the same town in March and April of 1867. v To the People of Georgia. sl’bere seems to be a prevalent mis understanding either of the powers of Ike Executive, or of what the Legisla ture has done, to supply provisions to those needing them. I receive daily communications, more numerous than I can possibly answer separately, giving information of destitution, and appealing (or relief from it. This destitution is of two kinds : First, that prevailing among men of property— possessed of lands and live stock— who have hired laborers and set their crops, without having secured a suffi cient supply of provision* to feed their laborers and tneir beasts of burden, and are now, in the midst of the crop season, arrested, tor lack of food ; secondly, that which arises from the utter destitution of property, and ina bility to labor. Those ot my readers who understand the Constitution of tho State, know full well that the Treasury of the State is under the control of the Legislature ; they know that it is ordained by the Constitution that '‘No money thall be drawn from the Treasury of this State except by appropriaten made by law They are aware that when an appro priatiou is made by law for a specific purpose, it can be used only for that purpose. These are plain truths. Let those who have not considered them before, take note of them now. The last Legislature appropriated one hun dred dollars (no more) “to purchase corn to give bread to such indigent widows and otphans of deceased sol diers, and disabled soldiers of this State, who, by reason of their extreme pooerty and inability to labor, need the same.'' Nothing can be clearer than That the class of farmers and planters, whose provisions have given out, mid way the crop, do not come within the description given iD the act. How ever much, therefore, I may sympathize with them (and no man does so more freely), it is maniteat I cannot relieve them. Appeals to mo only harrow my feelings without the possibility ot bring ing relief to the sufferers. ho, too, the provisions donated by the noble charita ble associations of the more fortunate States, are dedicated to the feeding of needy men,'women, and children, who have neither property ot any kind, nor the capacity to labor for the means of subsistence. It would be a violation of the trust to distribute them among property holders, in aid of agriculture. cannot be done. Deplorable, there fore, as this state of things is, I have no power to give relief. In this suggestion, I trust I shall be pardoned for making a suggestion. We are an impoverished people; a large amount of property wiped out, and what remains, depreciated in present value by the ravages of war. On the restora tion of peacte, we had to begin life anew, and to begin it with a very inadequate supply of bread—the staff of life. Two crops gathered since the cessation of hostilities, have been decidedly short— inadequate to the wants of our people. Last year the suffering was great, this year it is far greater. All that the State Government and the United Mates Government and the ever memo rable charities of benevolent individu als have done, will fall short of lull relief. Fellow citizens, how long shall this continue? Believe me, it will continue and grow more stringent until there -shall be raised, on the soil of Georgia, iu one year, enough of bread to feed all her people. Us this result, there is no hope this year, next year, nor within ten years, unless those who till the‘soil, plant in cereals and other articles of food a sufficient breadth of land, to secure this result with mode rately uupropitious seasons. This is a prompting of interest, it is the dictate of patriotism. This once accomplished, we can make a fair start, and wilh the blessings of God, can take care ot our selves. But this, I fear, is not being done ; I greatly fear there is too much land devoted to Colton, Cotton, COTTON. There would be hope for the State, if thousands of acres ot Cotton were now ploughed up, and the ground devoted to corn. There is yet time for it. The present cry for bread among substantial farmers, admonishes all to do this- Again, in regard to the second class, those who are provided fi r by voluntary contributions, and by State appropri ations. The inquiry comes to me daily, why do not the supplies come forward? I answer to all. The voluntary contri butions which come to me are distrib uted with all possible dispatch, and as they come in quantities 100 small for each shipment to be distributed all over the State, counties are classified, (the must destitute and suffering being first attended to) and supplied in order. Concerning the State supply—it must not be overlooked that to the appropri ation of the SIOO,OOO, the Legislature put his proviso, “ that no part of the same shall be expended until the Gov ernor shall become satisfied that a suffi ciency of corn will not be contributed from voluntary sources.” Many of your representatives believed enough would be so contributed; I owed to them the duty of waiting to see the result. lam satisfied the expenditure will be necessary. My operations are in progress—l doubt not the corn will be distributed at the most eligible time of the season. The appropriation to pay freight on corn “ donated,” is only $20,000. This will be insufficient to pay all the freight which will accrue on corn voluntarily contributed. I feel it to be my duty first to applv it to height on consign ments to H. C. Hornady, the agent named in the appropriation act, and toother agents directed to report to me. and to myself as the Executive of the .Slate. County authorities sending out agents and receiving and distributing corn by their own volition, do not come within the provision of that section. I heartily wish I could buy corn and pay freight for all. But I trust the extent of my powers and the means at my command will be now fully under stood, and that no unfounded expec tations will be entertained. Charles J. Jenkins. —A house in the suburbs of Spring field, Mass., which formerly bore a questionable character, has recently been purchased and occupied by a worthy deacon ; and a few days ago, a young man, who wasn’t aware of the change in proprietorship, rapped quietly at the back door. The deacon, with whom he was well acquainted, an swered the rap in person, and the fellow was not a little taken back at meeting him there. He finally stam mered out, ‘‘ls this the way to the poor house?’ “Yes." replied-the deacon, with emphasis, “yoit’re on the direct road I” President John Screven publishes in the Savannah papers a strong and con vincing appeal to the people of that city for a subscription for extending his road from Thomasville to Bainbridge, thirty five miles. —The Viceroy of Egypt is the richest msn in the world. He owns a fourth of the entire soil of the oountry. Let All Bvifaudi Amen J The following beautiful prayer was made by a Jewish Rabbi, Rev. Dr. Lillientbal, at an Israelitish Sabbath School Festival in Cincinnati, cele brating the return of the Jews, and the restoration of their worship under Judas Maccabaeus, and will not fail to meet with a hearty response from every Christian heart- But bow many parenU accompany their children to the Sabbath School and cooperate, with the teacher in imparting the knowledge of “Christ and him crucified” to these tender ones, who are the heritage of God and the dower of His Church 1 Could parents “lead them in the way they should go,” and not shirk the weighty duties imposed upon them, by foisting upon others what should he doue by themselves, what interesting Sabbath Schools we would have in our midst : “Father in Heaven ! we, the parents of these children, are leading them before the throne of Thy eternal grace and mercy, to entrust them to Thy paternal care and love. As thou hast been with us, so be Thou with them, and accept the prayers of their innocent hearts I As Thou hast permitted us to understand and comprehend the princi ples of truth, justice, liberty, and uni versal charity, go grant them Thy spirit, that they may learn to appreciate their valne 1 As thou hast guarded us like a true and faithful shepherd, so lead them to the path that they may find favor in Thine eyes, and be an honor to us, to society, and our coun try. Teach them to shnn error, to abhor vice, and to live a life that promises a rich harvest of joy and blessing. Give them the spirit of the Maccabees, that they set principle over frail and momentary advantages, and the glorious time we are celebrating to-day may be renewed by them and with them. They love Thee, O, God 1 these children ; they love Thee, and wish to obey Thy word and command. Grant them, therefore, their supplica tion ; grant prayers which the fathers and mothers, for the joyful future of their children, are sending up to Thee ; for in Thee we put our trust, we and our children, for ever and ever. Amen.” A Lucky Editor. Brother Dwinell, of the Rome Courier, has been presented with a genteel coat and vest, by a liberal and appreciative dealer of tbat city. We have always had a fancy for Rome — thought it a progressive and promising place—and this evidence of the ap precia'ion of the press, increases our fancy for the place. Bn tEdcgtnpl). FROM WASHINGTON. miscellaneous. Washington, May 22. All necessary rules and forms in bankruptcy have been adopted, and a manuel of some four hundred pages prepared by Clinton Rice, Secretary of the Commission of Justices, and by their order will be issued on Thursday. No delay or difficulty is apprehended in putting the law into effect on the first ol June. All the registers have been nominated and in case District Judges do not confirm the nominations, they are empowered to fill vacancies with suitable persons. The rules and forms cover a pamphlet of seventy five pages. The appointment of the Assistant Treasurer for New Orleans is not yet made. Bancroft is in the city, preparatory to his departure for his Prussian mis sion. He has had an interview with the President and Secretaries of State and Navy. The Treasury Agent reports that the Citv National Bank, of New Orleans, during the recent run, paid out six hundred and ten thousand dollars in two days. Its deposits were six hun dred and twenty thousand dollars. It is stated in high financial circles, that the next monthly statement will show a slight increase in the public ueut, owing to the payment us twenty five millions interest, and light revenue. Receipts for June will be heavier, as the income tax is then due. Statements of a probable meeting of Congress in July, to meet the Treasury difficulties are mere speculations. No Treasury officer has suggested it, or expects a meeting for such purpose, and the Treasury will require no relief. FROM NEW JERSEY. * Atlantic City, May 22.
