JAMES MILLER.
In the city of Augusta the visitor’s at¬
tention is attracted by an old style build¬
ing on one of the most conspicuous cor
ners. This is the famous dry goods etn
porium of that superb old merchant, Mr.
James Miller—a man who has transact¬
ed business there with our people for
over half a century, and whose honor is
proverbial. He has around him none
of the tinsel and glare of a modern estab¬
lishment, but still clings to the modest
and quaint style of yore, that proclaims
an era when shoddy goods and humbug
gery were unknown. His stock is one
of the largest, finest and most stylish in
the State, lie has but one quality of
merchandise and one prjoo. A child can
buy of him just as cheap as the expert.
This old merchant is an honor to our
State. He is the one remaining link of
a class of tradesmen that are now almost
extinct. Messrs, Wicker and Pilcher,
his salesmen, arc two gilt-edged young
men.
J. PHILLIPS.
This is one of the most successful mer¬
chants that ever did business in our
county. From a small beginning he
has established a line of three stores,
reaching through one of the best belts of
this section. When he did business at
Millstone, Mr. Phillips' reputation be¬
came so extensive that he soon found it
necessary to open another house at the
Glade,and now he has established a third
at Sandy Cross. If he keeps on at the
present rate, in a few years he will have
a store every five miles from the Broad
river to Athens. Mr. Phillips is a born
merchant. He knows how to buy goods,
how to sell them, and, what is best, how
to please his side customers. None of his
stores is a show. They are all first
class establishments, filled to oyerflowing
with the choicest goods, and his prices
render it a waste of time for our people
to go farther'in quest of low prices.
SMITH & WILLINGHAM.
As usual, this firm is well stocked for
Court-week. They have just painted up
their store and laid in a supply of new
goods, both seasonable, useful and oma
mental. Besides an immense stock of
all manner of groceries and plantation
supplies, they have a splendid line of
fancy goods, such as candies, crackers,
nuts, cheese, sardines, oysters, salmon,
and other good things of life. They
have a fine stock of dress goods, milli¬
nery, notions, hats, boots, shoes, saddles,
bridles, whips, etc., and one of the lar¬
gest and cheapest lots of prockery and
glassware edged firm—as in the honest, county. This is a gilt
clever and relia¬
ble as can be, who do a splendid busi¬
ness in an easy, quiet nianner, If you
want one of the best cigars you ever test¬
ed, try their new brand. They have also
a fine lot of chewing and smoking to¬
bacco.
LYNCH ct- FLANIGEN.
One of the most beautiful sights in
Athens is the China Palace of these gen¬
tlemen. It is an immense establishment,
filled to overflowing with glassware, Ma¬
jolica, French china, lamps, plated
vvare, cutlery, clocks and a thousand use
ful articles and novelties in the house¬
keeper’s line. You can spend a day
most pleasantly and profitably inspect¬
ing their stock. If our ladies would vis
it them they lighten would find many new in¬
ventions to their arduous labors.
This firm is a pair of the most agreeable,
courteous gentlemen we ever met. 4
customer always feels better after quit
ing their presence. By the way, they
have some rare novelties in the way ot
banging baskets and flower jars.
GEORGE R. LOMBARD & CO.
This firm has been a patron of the
•Echo since its first issue, but until our
recent visit to Augusta we had no idea of
its dimensions, We inspected their
works, and were surprised tosee so large
an establishment. They have all the
latest patterns first-class and machinery for turn¬
ing out work, and one of the
finest corps of machinists in the South.
They are prepared line, to do all manner of
work in their from the most compli¬
cated machinery to the simplest repair¬
ing. Our people must patronize this
firm. It is reliable and works at most
reasonable prices. Mr. Lombardis a ge¬
nial, pleasant gentleman, who superin¬
tends every branch of his business in
person.

lady U, for is noted they are for
sure to do that. Miss Leckie
her stylish and beautiful goods, and re
! wives a large patronage from this coun-
1 ty. Many ladies send her their orders,
a °d they are better suited than were they
; to buy in person. Miss Annie Knox is
still with this establishment, and will
ta ke great pleasure in serving her many
friends. We recently paid a visit to this
j store, and the array of beautiful fall and
winter millinery goods bedazzled our
eyes. They are really worth a visit to
j Augusta tosee.
j I T. MARKWALTER.
This old and reliable monumental
builder and sculptor has a card in this
| issue of the Echo to which we invite
special attention. Evidences ot Ins skill
are found iu every nook and corner of
this and adjacent States. He has now in
stock sculptures from Italy and other art
; centres of Europe, besides a large lot cut
by the best workmen to be found in
America. Mr. Markwalter is too well
and favorably known to the people ot
Georgia to need commendation at our
hands. We will only say, give him a
call and see specimens of work and get
prices before ordering elsewhere,
GEO. A. BAILIE.
This is one of the most genial men in
Augusta. We love to invade his estab-
1 shment, for a cordial reception is su:e
to be our portion. Mr. Bailie has a tru¬
ly magnificent stock of goods in bis line.
Two large floors are covered with the
most beautiful carpets, rugs, mats, etc.
His prices, too, are so very low that the
poorest can afford to buy. His grocery
department is the place for our readers
to purchase all the delicacies of the sea¬
son. Don’t forget Geo. A. Bailie when
you want anything in the carpet or gro¬
cery line. His prices few houses iu the
State can touch.
A. R. ROBERTSON.
This famous dealer in monuments and
tombstones has a card in our paper, tq
which we invite special attention. He
has done a great deal of work in this
county, and never fails to give satisfac¬
tion. His prices, too, are so very reason¬
able, that a patron once secured is re¬
tained. You must give him a call when
in Athens, and a visit to his works will
well repay you for the trouble. He su¬
perintends himself, the putting up of monuments
which is a great advantage cus¬

we arc conferring a blessing

liable druggists, and is pronounced by
all who have tested it as one of the grands
est preparations of the 19 th century.
is no humbug, but a valuable medicine,
that should be in every household.
PENDLETON & BRO.
This is one of the most enterprising
firms in Georgia. A few months ago
shops they had the misfortune to lose their
by fire, with a large lot of orders
on hard hand, but in two weeks they were
at work. They have now equipped
their establishment with new machinery,
and are ready to serve the public in the
satisfactory style of yore. They deserve
patronage, and we hope our readers will
remember them. The Messrs, l^endleton
are gilt-edged gentlemen.
Torn to Pieces by & Tiger,
We clip from the New York Clipper’s
record of circuses the following account
of the death of Herr Lengel, who, it will
be remembered, once came to Athens
with Ames’ circus and rode through the
city upon a cage of tigers, with two of
the beast by his side. His terrible en¬
ding but adds another chapter to the
misfortunes which seefn to attend circus
men this year,
The action of the remaining tiger, in
attacking the dead body of its mate af¬
ter the fatal assault had been made, is
the second instant of the kind on record.
These animals often form such an at
tachment for a man as to fight for him.
If we mistake not, it was one of these
very Brazilian lions that onced saved
Herr Lengel’s life by responding to his
call and-entering ^through a door, which
he managed to throw open while strug
ling with g lion, The Brazilian apb
nnil, though smaller, is a match for the
African lion, and tar more courageous.
G. A. Courtney, proprietor of the Zool¬
ogical Circus bearing his name, wrote
to the dipper from San Domingo,W. I
as
Last night at 11 o’clock the well
known lioir tamer, Herr Elijah Ren gel,
of Philadelphia, Pa., entered the den of
Brazilian tigers attached to this circus,
and had nearly* concluded his perform
mance with them when he made a false
step, and one of the tigers caught him
by the head and neck, and ip less thau
five seconds, he was torn to pieces. His
jugular vein was cut, bis ear on the right
side completely eaten off and his body
was a mass of flesh and bones, The
tent nod was the densely packed with people,
scene thut followed it is impossi
ble to describe.
I he guard and also a few private in¬
dividuals commenced firing with revol¬
vers and rifles at the tiger, and soon kill¬
ed it, thereby enabling the attaches to
drag the body of Lengel through the
compartment. tiger The remaining liyinc
atjOnce fell upon the dead animal,
10 the presence or the audience, and
tore it into fragments. No pen can des¬
cribe the horror of this scene.
Mr. Lengel s remains were burried to
day ( 16 ) at 1 o’clock, and were followed
to the grave by the whole company
