New Street.
Toll is now collected on the corpora
tion side of the Summerville Plank
Hoad, which very greatly inconveniences
the citizens in the suburbs of the city,
and particularly those of Woodlawn and
Harrisonville ; hut our city authorities,
with commendable zeal and regard for
the public welfare, hnve.determir.ed to
open anew street through “the Harper
Farm,” in the upper portion of the city,
to he called Harper street, which will
afford persons going to and from the
section mentioned an opporftinity of
passing to and fro without having to pay
tor the right. This prompt action on
the part of the city authorities is worthy
of the highest praise.
Printer.’ Pic Nile.
The Fourth of July is expected to be
a gala day with the craftsmen of this
locality. They have made extensive
arrangements to celebrate this day with
all becoming hilarity to their families
and themselves- Printers, as a gene
ral thing, seldom anticipate getting hut
two days in the year for holiday—Christ
mas and Fourth of July. The present
excursion it a novelty in its way, and
we hope to see the boys enjoy them
selves in a happy manner. Their desti
nation will he Berzelia, a beautiful site
on the Georgia Railroad, about twenty
miles from Augusta. The train will
leave at seven o’clock in the morning,
and all are requested to be prompt with
their little forms.
By the way, we would suggest that if
any large hearted merchant, or any
other man, wishes to be remembered
hereafter by the ernft he has an oppor
tunity to extend his kindness to-day to
any one of the boys.
Itcgtatration In Baldwin County.
The Board of Registration, says the
Federal Union, kept their books open
in this city five days last week, for the
purpose of registering the voters of this
county, with the following result: Total
number registered, 1,366. Whites. 450;
blaeks, 916; thus giving the blacks a
majority of 566. We learn the Board
will give those who have not registered
another opportunity to do so in August
next. We charge the white men of
■Baldwin Connty to wake up to their
duty to themselves and their children,
and not lot that opportunity pass with
out registering.
The Board goes to Washington county
this .week.
I.tvely.
In our strolls City yester
dav we were pleased to see in many
places much more life manifested than
has been done for some weeks past,
and in fact unusual for this time of year.
We were glad to see th(s, aud could not
fail to note the fact that the tnen who
were doing the best business were those
who advertised most freely; while those
who begrudge spending a penny for
printers’ ink, were doing little or
nothing, Make a note of this business
men, and govern yourselves accord
ingly.
A Curious Custom.
In Kafirland. a man is not allowed to
speak to his wife’s mother, nor can she
live in the same hut with him. If
they meet on the road, one covers his
face with a shield, and the other with
her hands, and thus they separate. Some
of our married men with troublesome
mother-in-laws talk of petitioning the
Legislature for some such law as exists
in Kafirland. It is thought to be u
great improvement over civilized cus
toms.
Texas Courtesy.
Courtesy in Texas must he a rare ar
ticle. The Jimplecute furnishes the fol
lowing illustration : “A young lady of
rare beauty and accomplishments, from
a city not a thousand miles away, has
been on a visit here for several days. A
few evenings since no less than eighteen
of our gallant gentlemen called, ex
pecting each to have the pleasure of her
company. In the crowd was two dry
goods establishments, one entire gro
cery store, a railroad gentleman, one
limb of the law (that used to be), one
loafer, and one capitalist. After this,
who can doubt the gallantry and cour
teous conduct of our young gentlemen ?"
Good for Elberton.
During the sweltering weather we
have had, are having, and are about to
have, it is a delightful reflection, (says
the Elberton Gazette), that we have a
man among us who is thoughtful and
provident and energetic to provide a
means whereby we may recover the
elasticity of mind and muscle of which
oppressive heat has deprived us- Robert
Hester is the inan, and the frequent use
of his bracing, invigorating, health
preserving and life restoring Bath, is
the means. He has, at much expense,
fitted up a luxurious bathing house, of
mammoth size, the water in which is
pure and constantly running. It is
spring water. Ihe bath basin is large
and deep enough to afford a good swim,
the most healthful and strength promo
ting exercise we know of. It is, in
additiou to all this, a place where those
who are so unfortunate as never to have
acquired the art of swimming, can,
without danger, learn how to swim, and
thus be able, in emergency, to save not
only their own, but the lives of others.
His charge for the privilege of bathing
is so extremely moderate as not to be
remunerative. Let all who wish to
preserve health and prolong life make
frequent use of Master Robert’s bath.

Can be obtained in any quantity, by
applying at the Daily Dues* Office.
Odd fellow*’ Address.
In another column will be teen a
special notice to the Odd Fellow mem
bership of this city. The Rev. Mr. Key
will address the Fraternity on Thursday
next, aud the public are invited to at
tend.
Improvement.
We published a suggestion yesterday
concerning the devoting of one day in
each week for (he destruction of flies,
but Dr. W. H. Tull has anticipated the
matter, and advertises a better remedy
for the riddance of this annoying insect.
Lecture of Fatber Hyau.
The Kev. A. J. Ryan lectured to a
large and appreciative audience last
night, at the Catholic Church.
The Reverend gentleman began by
saying that when he accepted the
invitation he expected to lecture in
some public hall, and that he would
have selected some literary or historical
subject, but as it was agreed that he
should lecture in the Church he would
select a religious subject—one which
would be more pleasing to him, and
perhaps do more good to his hearers,
which subject he announced as “Char
ily.”
The lecturer reviewed the history of
Charity from the foundation of the
Church of Rome up to the present time,
aud spoke feelingly and beautifully of
the great Christian Charily of the good
St Vincent de Paul, who was the first
founder of an asylum for foundlings in
France, in 1600. He also portrayed in
golden colors the labors of the Sisters of
Charity, and wished there were more
such in the world.
The lecture was a complete success,
and we wish the Reverend Father can
he prevailed on to deliver another be
fore he leaves the City.
Progressive.
From the Atlantic seaboard to Sac
ramento, by the railroad route, is three
thousand one hundred and twenty nine
miles, of which one thousand eight
hundred and eighty seven have been
completed and now in successful opera
tion, having but one thousand two hun
dred and fifty two miles yet to be built.
It is confidently asserted that the gap
will be filled up within two years.
How it is Accepted.
A correspondent of the Mobile Times,
writing from Camden, YVilcox county,
one of the most populous and wealthy
regions in Mississippi, says: “I was
particularly struck with the frankness
and wholeness of heart with which these
people accept the terms of the recon
struction bill, anxious to comply with
every clause in full, and utterly ignoring
themselves in the desire for preferment
or aggrandizement.”
Hon. B. 11. Hill.
The Atlanta New Era thinks that the
letters of Hon. B. H. Hill are doing
much to deter the great work of recon
struction among those unacquainted
with the honorable gentleman’s glaring
inconsistencies as a politician. But
among those acquainted with his utter
want of success in all his political un
dertakings, they excite only a feeling of
regret, that so able a lawyer sinks into
such a poor, dwarfish politician !
Cotton. .
The tallest patch of Cotton we have
ever seen, or, for that matter, anybody
else, says the Elberton (Ga.) Gazette, is
growing on a lot in the immediate
neighborhood of our office. It is emi
nently beautiful, and shows what culti
vation will do. It is the property of
our townsman, John James, and owes
its vigorous growth to liis vigilant super
intendencc, the skill of old Uncle Ed
mond, and the blessing of Almighty
God upon their united efforts.
Heroic Act.
The following act of heroic conduct,
from the Hartford (Conn.) Times, gives
an illustration of the adventure of a
brave man to prevent a most frightful
accident at the East Bridgeport bridge
on Friday, 23d Jane. The draw had
been open to let a schooner pass ; the
ball was down and the bridge some fif
teen leet out of place when the train
came in sight, and pushed along at the
usual speed, the engineer not seeing the
signal and knowing nothing about it till
within twenty feet of the draw. By the
greatest exertion of the draw tender,
Dennis Colgan, the bridge was swung
into place, but as the train strikes the
draw at a strong curve on the west side,
a train coming on it from that direction,
would inevitably swing it open unless it
was locked. Knowing this, Colgan ran
across the bridge in the lace of the ad
vancing train, and, in spite of the cries
of the spectators, dropped in front of
the engine, and succeeded in locking
the bridge with about an inch of the bar*
and sliding to the platform below. So
narrow was his escape in performing
this heroic deed that all thought he had
been crushed to death beneath the
wheels of the car.

Foreign Intelligence.
Paris, July Ist.—Prizes were distri
buted yesterday. Napoleon said to the
people that the Kings have come here
to crown the ideas of peace and concil : .
ation. France is proud to be great,
prosperous and free, and not unnerved
by her material joys. Being thoughtful
she can see the national fibres vibrate
for the honor of France, but this noble
susceptibility should not create fear for
the world’s repose, as we here prove our
anxiety for peace. This Exposition
marks an era of harmony and progress,
and the triumph of grand moral princi
ples, which, with justice, can alone
establish thrones. The speech was fol

John Setze,
AG EXT,
WOULD CALL ATTENTION TO HIS
select and elegaut stock of
NEW SPRIG DRY GOODS
Embracing everything usually kept in a
first class Dry Goods Store, which he is
now receiving, and will be constantly add
ing to during the season.
Having been sclocted with great care,
among tho assortment will be found all
that is new and desirable in style, superior
in quality, and reasonable in price.
Determined that no establishment shall
excel us in REAL and SUBSTANTIAL
INDUCEMENTS TO CUSTOMERS, h®
would respectfully invite a careful exami
nation of his Goods and prices, from all in
search of BARGAINS, before purebasin
elsewhere.
PREFERRING AN
“Active I'euny to a Slow Sliill lug,”
l
and believing that his interest and that cl*
his customers are mutual, bis prices snail
be so regulated that thoie who buy once
will be glad to call agaiu, and secure as
before.
