Foster Blodyet. At a regular meeting of Mechanic fin Company, held at their Hall, on Monday evening, June 3, the following officer* were elected for the ensuing year: President— Fohtk* Blodgett. Vice Pretrident— Peter Haxsberger. Captain—Enw. Boulikiao. lit Lieut.—Kent Buell. 3ud Lieut.—Gao. Rubt. Pipemau—Stehikx Frank. Aaat. Pipeman—J. Darts. r~ Treasurer—ff*. Fix. Secretary—Louis Sculler. The President, on taking the chair, delivered the following address: Firemen of M Mechmic” Independent Fire Company: The compliment of a unanimous re election to the Presidency of your Com pany, which you have tendered me, i* one which I heartily appreciate, and for which I return yon my sinoerest acknowledgements. For rears we have been associated, and I can truly state that no circum stance has ev£r occurred to mar in the slightest degree the harmony which should always distinguish organisations like ours. Speaking for myself, I (eel that I hut speak for every member of “ Mechanic ” when I say, that all recol lections which animate us are of the most pleasureable character, and that in old age, when no longer able to perform the duties of charity, In which we are now united, we can recur to our past with feelings of pride. I accept the position to which I have been chosen, and I assure you that my best energies shall be exerted in your 'behalf, as well as in the behalf of all kindred organizations of our city. No petty feeling of envy stirs the bosom of an Augusta Fireman. Honor due to one is shared by all. The spirit of generous rivalry which excites our brothers to “ deeds of high emprise,” in the cause of humanity, is laudable in the extreme. No city in the Union can boast of a more devoted band; no wreaths are greener, or fresher, than those which encircle their brows. With this expression of my feelings at your kindness, it might be proper that I should stop. Knowing each other as we do, the accumulation of words •night be regarded as unnecessary, but I cannot resist the opportunity of de claring my gratification at tho unanimi ty which characterizes you, whom 1 may properly designate as the representative mechanics of Augusta. You have pro ven yourselves my friends amidst the beating of the storm raging around us. You are true and tried, as tempered steel; while those in whom timidity has usurped the place of reason are en deavoring to burrow in places of refuge, you come out in the glorious sunlight, and utter no sentiment of doubtful im port. You have not falsified your past record, hut, as ever, you stand forward with the determination to do, and the courage to avow. Let us never forget that there is a crown for the courageous —contempt for the cur. And while all who know you are fa miliar with your inestimable services as firemen, your conduct as citizens is equally deserving of praise. And as time passes on, I am convinced still more of the truth of the opinion I have ever entertained, that the best citizens generally are those who, aside from their daily pursuits, are united in volun tary labors of love and charity. That feeling of sympathy which urges them to the performance of good works towards a particular class of suffering, also opens their hearts to the relief of all the distressed of every character. The sordid accumulations of wealth may, possibly, in time briug a sort of pleasure to the possessor, but there is no delight so transcendant as that of doing good. As citizens, it in a great measure depends upon ourselves whether our future shall be happy aud prosperous or clouded and burdensome. We have to shake off the prejudices and opinions of the past as the lion shakes the dew drops from his mane. The voices of lamentation and repining mast cease, and our highest ambition must be for the good of our whole country, or we are hut entering upon the threshold of new disasters. Famous among the na tions of the earth have been the people of America ; and whether it be the home of our nativity, or the home of our adoption, the South has been hitherto honored and envied. Let not that en ergy which has always distinguished the American citizen become weakened now, but rather let him renew his vows of fealty to his country and gird his loins with new ardor for the race'of prosperity. We have a glorious country, upon which nature has showered with a liberal hand her choicest favors. We have every incentive to industry, to suc cess, to a glowing future—let us not waste our opportunities, hut arouse from our threatened apathy, and achieve the glittering prize it is in our power to grasp. Success is not accomplished without labor. Fortune comes not to the laggard. My earnest efforts shall be in aid of the redemption of our land from the evils by which it is environed. My humble abilities shall not be irittered away in captious criticism, or in snarl ing at that which I cannot avoid. I regard it as the highest duty of every good citizen—a duty which cannot be too greatly estimated, or too often im pressed upon the minds of all with whom he may come in coutact—to assist in allaying the feelings of bitterness which he may find to exist, and in the restoration of our people,to their former affiliations. Passion has had its day— let us noiv act in accordance with the dictates of reason. So only can we emerge Irom thegloom which surrounds and overshadows us, to the brightness of anew born day. In such a work your services can he of the greatest avail. Most oi you be long to a class which has more to lose by a disorganized state ot society than any other. The agriculturist can always find employment and renumeration, for the soil pay* no respect to men’s political opinions ; and the merchant pursues a business which to a greater or less ex tent must coutinue; but the mechanic, whose avocation it is to execute the im provements of the age, discovers his greatest reward in peace, for then only can the spirit of progress oblainduedevel opment. With business paralyzed and euergy prostrated, the mechanic knows his “occupation’s gone.” Let us not lose confidence in our selves. Let us piofit by the sorrowful ex periences of the past, and while banded together for the protection of the lives of our fellow beings from the ravages of fire, also struggle to quench the flame of discord, and preserve the life of our country. No nobler employment can • engage yonr services. No holier reward can he won than that which we shall be entitled to receive. Independently pur -1 suing the course pointed out by patriot ism—regarding as the “ idle wind ” the carping of disappointed political Mu tants, and the mouthing* of thoee who can only exist by pandering to unsound opinion*—wc can deserve well ol our country, no matter how small may be our influence, or bow lowly our station. On motion of Wm. O. Bohler, the daily paper* of oor city were requested to publish the list of officers elected, to gether with the address of the President, and that a committee of three be ap pointed to procure a copy of the address, and furnish it to the different papers. Wm. O. Bohler, A. J. Smith and J. Prager were appointed aaid committee. Louis SofHU.au, • Secretary. Alteration at Cancers Hall. We are more than ordinarily pleased to learn that this “ Old Drury ” is determined to keep up with the limes. A combination of prominent citizens has been formed for the purpose of altering and reconstructing this old established ‘‘home of the drama.” That Augusta requires some place of resort for the legitimate amusement of her citizens—where all the modern attributes of construction, elegance, and beauty that should represent in her public gatherings the refinement and good taste that is part and parcel of her growth—is apparent to the most casual ooserver, and those who question the success of un institution of this kind, carried on in the proper spirit and with consistent enterprise, show at once but little faith in the future of our beautiful City. With this essential object before those that are interested, they intend to make the “Old Augusta” a first class Theatre, replete with all the accessories of modern art as applied to decoration, ventilation, illumination, scenery, stage, and other conveniences. Wfe congratu late I. P. Girardev, Esq., on his public spirit, and the advantages obtained by the experience of H. M. Akeroyd, the architeot employed, for the regeneration of this time-honored temple of the Muses. County Court. The only case tried on yesterday was that of Peter Elder vs. Henry Moore, being an action for wages, verdict for the Plaintiff for $48.80, being a part of the amount claimed. Recorder’s Court. There was an unusual attendance be fore this tribunal on yesterday. There were five cases of Negroes, for violating the 18th section, four of which were fined $5 and costs; and one, (or resisting an officer, fined $lO and 20 days in the streets. Three whites were also up for tampering with the same section, two of whom were fined $lO each aud costs, and one $5. California Wheat. We noticed at the store of J. M. Clark & Sons on yesterday, a sample of beautiful white wheat, from Cali fornia, which is being ground at the Augusta Mills. This looks like anew era in the course of trade. Respited. We learn that Governor Jenkins has granted a respite to the negro boy, Carter Heard, who has been confined in the jail of Fulton county, under sentence of death for the murder of young Ham mond. Confidence (jinine. We learn that a gentleman from the country received a check on Branch, Sons & Cos., on yesterday, from a stranger stopping at one of our hotels, for SSO. It was signed J. Baggs, and on presenting it at the counter of the above firm, the unsuspecting victim was informed that no such a man as J, Baggs had any account there. Return ing to the hotel, Mr. Baggs was not to be found, and nobody about the hotel knew anything about him. Attempt at Burglary. A daring attempt was made on Monday night to enter the Banking House of Messrs. Branch, Sons & Cos., in this city. The burglars succeeded first in getting into the rear of the premises through an adjoining lot, from which also they forced the cellar door, and got into the cellar under the banking house. From here they commenced boring through the fiodr, and had made a number of holes, when for some reason, known only to them, the work was abandoned- Had they got into the banking house, the tedious and very difficult work of forcing the vault con(ronted them, before any spoils of value would have been available. Address of Hon. Foster Blodgett. At the request of the members of “Mechanic Independent Fire Company,” 2d Division, we publish the address of Hon. Foster Blodgett, delivered on the occasion of his unanimous refilection as President of that Company, on Monday night. We commend the address to the careful perusal not only of the Firemeu of our city, but of all liberal minded and progressive citizens. It evinces a just appreciation of energy, and industry j which are to be the prime agencies in the work of restoring the country to a condition of prosperity. Extinguishing Fireworks. The city authorities of Boston have resolved to prohibit the use of all kinds of fireworks on the coming Fourth of July, aud thereby save the sixty thou sand Hollars usually appropriated for that Chinese element of the annual cel ebrations. This is a wise and econom ical reform in a custom more hon ored iu the breach than the observance, and one that might very properly be imitated in ull our cities, where a large amount of both public and private money is annually thrown away in the childish display of fireworks, and the useless explosion oi patriotic gun powder. Bg Cclegrapt). FROM CHARLKSTOir rr*user, Trenheln A Cos. A special dispatch to the Charleston Courier, under date of New York, Jane 3d, says: Letters from Liverpool any that the suspension of Fraser, Treu boim & Cos., was not iu consequence of irreparable lotses, but by a serious lock op of their capital pending the suits against them in the English Courts. There is a clear surplus of assets over their liabilities, and the payment of creditors iu full is confidently predicted. FROM WASHINGTON. Miscellaneous. Washington, June 4, The West Point Board of Visitors has organized. Rev. Francis Vintou, of New York, President; E. H. Augaraar, of Louisiana. Secretary. The Radicals carried the city by twenty-five hundred majority, aud have a majority of the City Council. Mr. Davis will reside daring the sum mer at Niagara, a beautiful little vil lage, one*'of the oldest in Canada, on lake Ontario. A fine residence has been fitted up for his accommodation. The Judiciary Committee has ad journed to the 26th of June. The early reassembling is for the purpose of re porting to Congress, should it assemble in July. A final vote to impeach the President was lost by a vote of four to five, ayes, Boutwell, Thomas, William*, Lawrence, nays; Wilson, Woolbridge, Eldridge, Marshall and Churchill. A resolution declaring that the Presi dent had committed acts worthy the con demnation of the people, was passed —7 ayes to 2 nays. Eldridge and Mar shall, nays. On the first vote of ce'usnre, Boutwell and Thomas voted negatively, but finally changed their votes. The Navy Department has advices from the Asiatic squadron—health good - No piracies are reported in the Chinese setts since September. The death ol Capt John P. Bank head, at Aden, near the mouth of the Red Sea, is confirmed. The deceased was a son of the late Gen. James Batik head, of South Carolina. Internal revenue receipts to day $1,899,000. , On account of the unexpectedly large receipts, of a miscellaneous character, from the Internal revenue, toward the close of last month, and small requisi tions from other departments, the debt statement for May will show* not only a very large currency balance, but con siderable reduction of the debt. Internal Revenue, to-day, one million twenty-five thousand dollars. The monthly debt statement will be published to morrow. Attorney General Stauberry has re turned from New York Sheridan’s action of yesterday has produced a profound sensation iu politi cal circles. It is confidently expected that the President will, on -his return from Raleigh, take the rains. It is sated that Durant has declined the Governorship of Louisiana. Attorney General Stauberry will shortly issue a Supplemental Opinion, based upon abstracts lrotn Stale laws, in answer to many questions regarding particular points. Advices irom Col. Parker, a member of Grant’s staff, who went West to investigate the Fort Kearney massacre, corroborates the reports of Indian hos tilities. It is stated unofficially that Sherman will take the field. Judge King, of Missouri, and Frazer, of Tennessee, have been impeached by their respective State Senates. FROM RALEIGH. Raleigh, N. C., June 3. The ceremonies at the City Cemetery commenced at noon tu-day, in connec tion with the dedication of the mouu ment erected to the father of the Presi dent. It is a simple shaft, on red limestone, ten feet high, with an orna mental cap. The inscription is as follows: “In memory of Jacob John son, an honest man, beloved and respected by all who knew him. Born ease caused by an over effort in saving the life of a friend.” The President and party accompanied by Governor Worth, General Sickles, and others, having reached the ceme tery in carriages, were conducted to a platform near to the monument. A very large number of spectators was present, all apparently deeply interested in the ceremonies. After preliminary religions exercises, Hon. D. L. Swain, L.L.D., President of the State Univer sity, delivered an address, in which he traced the history of Raleigh, and iu this connection alluded to Jacob John son, who by a deed of noble daring, saved the lives, from drowning, of Hen dersou and Calluin, at'the ultimate cost of his own —passing away eventually, a martyr to humanity. The following obituary notice, written by Col. Hender son, the editor of the Raleigh Star, is copied irom that paper of the 12th of January, 1812: “Died in this city on Saturday last, Jacob Johnson, who had for many years occupied an hutnDle but useful station. He was city constable, sexton, and porter to the State Bank. In his last illness he was visited by the principal inhabitants ot the city, by all of whom he was esteemed for his hon esty, sobriety, industry, and humane, friendly disposition. Among all by whom he was known and esteemed, none lament him more, except, perhaps, his own relations, than the publisher of this paper; for he owes his life, on a certain particular occasion, to the bold ness and humanity of Mr. Johnson,” The orator, among other things, al luded to the fact that three natives oi the State—Jackson, Polk, uad Johnson —have passed from obscurity and pov erty, in North Carolina, to comparative opulence and eminence in Tenneeeee, and hence to the higheet poiut of honor in the Union and the world. Dr. Bwan oonclnded M follow*: Lioa“Of the history of the son of Jacob Johnson, who commenced life nnder ; such comparatively unfavorable ana pices, this is not the time to apeak. Tbs companion of hie boyhood, I-eorf ides Polk, whose character I have attempted to portray, has passed the portal of the grave. The President of the U nited States is before you, scarcely more time worn than the Lieutenant General seemed at our last interview. His career in life thus far is one of the most remarkable in any age or nation. His country and the world have decided between the two representative men of the two parties which divided North Carolina and the South, that he who achieved successes, if not more pure and patriotic, was as brave, as disin terested, and wiser, than his compeer. The mementoes of past services are before yon. The crossed swords may be suspended as a memento of the past, and a warning for the future. The blood oi the noblest heroes on both sides of the conflict will soon form a union in the veins of the descendants of those who met in deadly strife on well fought fields. The most patriotic hearts, North aud South, East and West, already beat in unison. The time has arrived when patriotism, not less than Christianity, requires the forgiveness of all that we cannot forget; the crossed swords on the monument, surmounted by the stripes and stars, form an appro priate memorial association for the Confederate and Union dead, and 110 strife should be impressed above their graves, bnt patriotic and generous emulation to do most to promote har mony and restore the more perfect union designed by the constitution of oor common country. The ceremonies were closed with the benediction. Two colored girls laid large bunches of the choicest flowers on the grave of Jacob Johnson. The President, accompanied by Secre tary Seward, Post Master General Ran dall, and others of the party, were escorted to the Capitol, to day, at 2 o’clock, by Governor Worth, and Major General Sickles and Staff, and a number of prominent military officers and civilians, including the Mavor of Raleigh. The reception took place in the hall of the House of Commons. The visitors, after saluting the President, were in troduced severally to Secretary Seward, Post Master General Randall, aud Gen Sickles. The deaf mutes from the State Asylum were among the many who paid their respects. Whites and blacks were all treated with the same courtesy. The greeting received by the President from all persons was warm and cheerful. Old as well as young congratulated him on his visit to his native town, aud every body appear to be happy. This afternoon the President and party attended the State dinner at the Yarborough House. The entertain ment was in elegant style. No toasts were drank nor speeches made. The President, in company with Secretary Seward, Postmaster General Randall and others, this afternoon visited the several State chartitable institutions in the vicinity. They leave to-morrow to attend the commencement at Chapel Hill. FROM NEW ORLEANS. Nkw Orleans, June 3. Jacob Baker proposes to the creditors of the Bank of Commerce to form a joint stock company with a capital half a million, to build houses and stores, the stock to be paid for in checks on tho Bank of Commerce. He proposes to turn over to the company all the real estate and personal property as well as its Bank interest. By order of the President, through the Secretary of War, General Sheridan has restored the old Levee Commission ers, in compliance with a petition from Gov. Wells. Sheridan in obeying the order, denounces Wells in strong terms, and removes him, appointing Thos. J. Durant in his place. Sheridan also removed the Street Commissioner, and appointed William Baker in his place. Sheridan’s removal ot Gov. Wells is commented on favorably by the press and appears to be regarded favorably by the people. Baker the newly ap-. pointed Street Commissioner is one of the registrars, first district. FROM NEW^YORK. New York, June 3. Fraser, Trenholm & Co.’s circular announcing the suspension expresses the hope of an early resumption. FROM MOBILE. Mobile, May 4—P.M. The following order was read by Mayor Ilartou to the Board of Aldermen and Common Council this morning : Division Headquarters, } Third Military District, > Atlanta, Ga., May 31st. ) Special Order, No. 34. Iu pursuance of the recommendation of General Swayne, commanding the District of Alabama touching the recent disturbances in Mobile, and for reason therein given, the offices of City Tax Collector, City Treasurer, Board of Aldermen and Common Council of the city of Mobile, are hereby vacated by the removal ot the present incumbents. The new appointees will be inaugurated immediately- after the promulgation of this order. FROM RICHMOND. Richmond, June 4—P. M. Chief Justice Chase arrived here to-day, and leaves for Raleigh, North.

Senator Wade, with an excursion party, accompanied by Geo. Sherman, have arrived here—weather delightful. The perty is supplied with rifles lo ' amuse themselves shooting antelopes from the cars, which are plentiful along the track. FROM BOSTON- Boston, June 3. Lucius Marlins Sargent, the well known author, died to day, aged eighty one years. FROM MEXICO. Surrender of Maximilian. Nkw Orleans, June 3. A telegram from Galveston Bays that a letter from Queretaro (date not given)) says Maximiliun and his principal offi cers gave up their swords to Escobedo himself. The entire army of Maximilian, with artillery and ammunition wagons, surrendered. The following chiefs are prisoners: Maximilian, Mejia, Castillo, Carsanans, Guzon, Mereno, Alveria, Maximo Campas, and Miramon. The latter was captured on the streets of the City shortly after the surrender. Men dez alone is missing. Over two hundred subaltern officers were also captured with Maximo Campas, and reported by a private letter as having been shot on the 16th. Maximilian had a severe attack of dysentery on the evening of the 15th, and a physician was sent him by Esco bedo. Private correspondence from San Luis says he has recovered, and is expected in that city, and probably crossed over into the United States. A report says the Austrians removed Lopez and sold Fort Lacruse with three thousand men. This is denied in the official reports ot Escobedo, who an nounces the death of Colonel Louis Cavalo, of Labuca, and Colonel Miguel Palcapalcions. THE MARKETS. Financial. Nkw York, Jane 3.
