Itluvical Festival.
The second entertainment for th«j
benefit of the Baptist Church, was given
at Masonic Hull on Friday night. The
coucert was a rare musical treat. The
Young Men’s Amateur Club, and the
Harmonic Vereiu contributed n number
of splendid pieces. The solos by Mrs.
TANARUS., Miss M., and Miss 8., were received
with great enthusiasm, and evoked
showers of boquets. The solo of Mr.
J., and the amusing episode by Dr. H.,
at the conclusion, caused much amuse
ment.
The supper room lost few of its at
tractions by the liberal patronage it had
received for two days, and many of its
choicest delicacies were left to be dis
posed of at auction.
We congratulate those who had
charge of these entertainments on
the requisite taste displayed in the whole
arrangements, and we trust the church
derived material aid from the innocent
and pleasant diversion which they have
afforded.
Pentrcost.
This Hebrew festival is celebrated on
the fifteenth day after the 2nd day of
the Passover, and is observed by all
Hebrew communities, this year on the
9th and 10th of June. The festival is
instituted to call to mind the memorable
day on which God descended upon
Mount Sinai, and dcliveaed the great
code ot the Ten Commandments to
Moses, the foundation of all other laws.
It is customary for religious Jews to
assemble on the first day of this festival
for the purpose of reading the Penta
teuch and other parts ol the Old Testa
ment, chanting psalms, studying a part
of the Mishna, and giving thanks to God
for the gift of his Holy Law.
The Synagogues are on this festival
gracefully adorned with leafy branches
and wreathes of flowers, in honor of
the law of Moses.
The three days preceeding of this
festival are called “ Sheloses Yemei
Hagbala,” the three days of bordering
the Mount previous to Moses receiving
the decalogue.

Washington, June B—P.8 —P. M.
The President received the first inti
mation of Wells’ removal, through the
newspapers. The President considers
these removals unauthorized by the law.
Benjamin F. Flanders, whom Sheri
dan has appointed Governor of Louis
iana, arrived there twenty years ago,
from New Hampshire. He commenced
his career as Clerk in the Charity Hos
pital. He was Secretary to Mayor
Grossman, an ardent Know Nothing,
Secretary of tho Opelousas Railroad,
and violently opposed to cooperation
during the incipiency of the rebellion,
and Federal Treasury Agent for several
years. Sheridan appears unsupported
here. His prompt action defeats the
plans of Schernor’s and Shock’s conser
vation movement. Some changes of
District Commanders are regarded as
certain.
A July meeting of Congress is now
considered almost probable.
NEW ORLEANS.
New Orleans. June B—P.M.8—P.M.
About 10} o'clock Governor Flanders,
accompanied by General Forsyth, ap
peared at the Executive office, and
entered upon his dnties as Governor of
Louisiana, without any ceremony what
ever. He stated that his efforts should
be, to the best of his ability, exerted
for the public good.
Brevet Brig. Gen. John W. Forsyth,
of Sheridan’s staff, called at the
executive office in the Mechanic’s
Institute, to-day, and told Gov. Wells
that ho bore a written communication
to him from the General commanding,
which was found to be as follows:
Headquaktkus sth Mu.itahy Dirt., )
New Orleans, La., June 7. )
Mr. J. Madison Wells, Ex Governor of
Louisiana :
Snt: Gov. Flanders has just informed
me that had he made an official demand
on you for the records of the office
which you have heretofore held as Gov
ernor of Louisiana, and that you have
declined to turn them over to him, dis
puting the right to remove from office
by me, which right you have acknowl
edged and urged on me up to the time
of your removal. I therefore send
Brevet Brig. Gen. John W. Forsyth,
ot my staff, to notify you that he is sent
by me to eject you from the Govern
ment room forcibly, unless you consider
this notification as ejectment.
(Signed) P. H. Shakidan,
Maj. Gen. U. S. Comd’g. sth Mil. Dist
After reading the communication,
Governor Wells stated to General For
syth :
Sir—l surrender the office I hold only
to the sword, and called up Judge
Ryan, of the Parish of Rapides, to hoar
witness of what he said. Without
making any response whatever, Geueral
Forsyth withdrew. The new appointee,
Mr. Flanders, will therefore take imme
diate possession of the Executive ollicc.
Ex-Governor Wells has consulted with
eminent counsel, as to tho proper course
to pursue at lav.

A Herald special from Paris yester
day says the Imperial party had a very
narrow escape, the ball passing in aline
between two of the distinguished pet
sonages, and wounding a lady standing
In the street. A horse ridden by a groom
in waiting was wounded in the head
immediately after the discharge, and
blood sported on the Imperial uniforms.
The assassin attempted a second shot,
when the pistol burated. He is a Pole,
coming trom Belgium, and without
accomplices in Paris. The polioe saved
his life from the enraged populace.
A magnificent ball was given at the
Russian Embassy the same evening-
The Czar, with his sons, and the Empe
ror and Empress of France were pres

party were congratulated on their
escape.
The yacht Henrietta, from Europe,
coming up with the Santiago de Cuba,
was towed into the Horse Shoe in this

The money market was firm most of
the day at 6a7 per cent.; but the de
mand was less pressing. Discount
market dull, and firmer; business
paper ranges from 7 to 8.
The Express says the bank statement
on Monday will show a decrease of
$2,500,000 ill loans; $5,500,000 in de
posits; $2,500,000 in legal tenders, and
an increase of $1,000,000 in specie.
These fignre* are not as unfavorable as
was generally anticipated. The dis
bursements from the Treasury Depart,
inent will be heavy during the balance
of the month. On Monday the Sub-
Treasurer will commence to pay out
$10,000,000 for the redemption of com
pound interest notes, maturing on the

RRMARIW.
Businemi has been dull In all departments of
trade during the week, with very little change in
any leading articles. The reports of the growing
wheat crop are exceedingly favorable, and have
had the effect of depressing prices of flour and
grain. The weather for several days has been
cloudy, with some rein, and unfavorable for the
wheat harvest. Cotton and Cora are making fair
progress, and the agricultural interests of the
country sre rather promising Stands of cotton
have not been good, in some localities, and we
hear of considerable lend planted in cotton which
has been ploughed up and put in corn. Many of
our planters have had great difficulty in getting
corn and bacon, and some have been obliged to
abandon their crops.
Cotton continued steady during the early part
of the week, but for two or three days the advices
from Liverpool have imparted a downward ten
dency to the market.
Nothing definite has transpired In reference to
the failure of Messrs. Fraser, Trenholm A Cos., or
the extent to which it will Involve their corres
pondents here. The effect is seriously felt in the
fact that it has caused most of our buyers to with
draw from the market.
The receipts of cotton for the last week at all the
porta were, according to our mail - dates, 8,737
bales. Total receipts since September, 1,727 876
bales. Stock on hand, 250,690 bales Stock on
band in Liverpool on the 7th, 853,000 bales, of
which 463,000 were American.
FINANCIAL.
There has been but little change in Gold or Sil
ver during the week, and the demand has been
only moderate. We quote as follows:
Gold, buying 1
Gold, selling 1 37
Silver, buying 1 28
Silver, selling 1 32
The Banks check on the North at pur, and buy
at \ to >4O. off ; thirty day bills 1 ,‘a per cent, off;
sixty day bills off. Movements in Stocks and
Bonds have not been to any extent, but sales during
the week have been made of Augusta City Bonds,
old, at 70; new, 65; Georgia Railroad Stock, has
improved, and is in demand at 70.
PROVISIONS.
BACON.—Stocks are very much reduced under
light receipts, and the market continues quiet, at
the ruling rates of the last month. We quote Shoul
ders. 11?4@12c ; B. B. Sides, Clear
Ribbed Sides, 14 to Clear Sides, 15c.
liani6 take a wide range, from 16 to 20 cents.
FLOUR.—Stocks are moderate, and under the
approach of t ie season for the new crop, prices
for Western and Baltimore Flour are rather easy.
We quote Western Superfine, sll to sl3; Extra,
sl4 to sls; Fancy, $18; Baltimore Flour is scarce
except a few small lots of the finer grades in the
hands of grocers for retail, which are sold at sl7 to
$lB. The City Mills supply most of the local trade,
and they have not reduced their prices
LARl).—This article is in fair request at un
changed rates. We quote Prime Leaf in barrels,
15@16c.; half-barrels, 16@17c.; Pressed, 13@14c.
BUITER. —The market is well supplied with
Northern and Western brands, and prices are un
changed. Country Butter is dull at 25c.

prices are stiff, at 2 40 to 2 50.

12L'al3>sc.
MEAL.—City-ground bolted Meal is in demand
at 1 65. Country meal, unbolted, 1 55.

stocks are not large, prices are weak. We quote
Yellow and Mixed, #1 53 to $1 55; White, $1 55 to
$1 60. Sales have been made at a shade lower
rates, and large lots would hardly bring the inside
figures.
WHEAT.—The new crop is beginning to make
its appearance, and one or two lots have been
shipped to New York. Extensive arrangements
are being made for a large business, and our deal
ers are prepared to pay liberal prices. The mar
ket has not fairly opened, and reliable quotations
can not, therefore, be given, but $2 50 to 3 00 can
be obtained for early delivery. It is believed that
when the season fairly opens prices will go consid
erably lower.
OATS.—The demand is limited, and prices are
lower—sl 05<Sil 10.

to 18c; American, 16 so lß%c.
TOBACCO.—There is a good inquiry for new
Tobacco, and stocks are very light. All grades of
sound bright are in fair demand, and command
good prices. Smoking Tobacco is dull, tho trade
being confined chiefly to a few' well established
brands, for the quotations of which we refer to our
table.
POTATOES.—The market is well supplied with
new Potatoes, which are in fair demand at $5 per
barrel.
COTTON.
We left the market at the close of our last re
view with a good demand, and 725 bales were
sold at 24 to 25c. for Middling. Receipts 10 hales.
On Monday the market was quiet, and holders
very firm. Only 32 bales were sold, at 25c for
Middling. Receipts 10 bales.
On Tuesday there was a good demand, and 254
bales were sold at the prices of the day previous.
Receipts 23 bales.
On Wednesday the market opened active at very
full prices, but advices from abroad caused a fall

25 bales.
On Thursday the market was weaker, and 154
bales were sold at 24 * to 25c. for Middling.
On Friday the market was dull, and sales could
not l>e effected to any extent, without a decline of
about one cent from the highest point of the week,
which holders w ere not generally disposed to con
cede Sales 53 bales. Receipts 67 bales. The
market is too dull and unsettled to admit of relia
ble quotations.
