Owning his own store, and buying for cash, Mr. My era is enabled to sell very low. Few houses in the State can compete with him j n p r j ce8> ]j e keeps no shoddy stock. His goods are all fresh and ly first-class. It is needless to tell our people been to give him a call, for many have bought. waiting for his opening before they He has now goods for the mil lion. Give him a call and you are sure to be pleased. He is proud of his Ogle¬ thorpe trade and keeps his nicest goods to lay before our people. 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. THOMPSON, HEINDEL & CO. deS’^rbuiMtagmaterWiL They » own a number of saw mills in the heart of the finest timber belt in Geor gia, have their own railroads leading to same, and a manufactory for sash, doors, blinds, etc., that is the pride of Augusta, line. They are prepared to fill orders for any manner of work, from a crystal palace to a church door. They have an immense stock of builders’ hardware, besides glass, paints and other goods in their line, inis is 4 grand tinn, and we prices before orde.ing iil<t tlsewhere. e A 0 J hem for — J. J. LOGUE. This enterprising gentleman has one of the finest ci rpet stores in Augustg. He has on hard samples of every kiud and style of carpet, that can be seen through his exhibitor, and purch,users can order just what they want. Mr. Logue’s expenses are but nominal, com pared with many the advantage dealers, and of he this gives his customers greatly reduced prices, Give him a call when in Angiista. Yon are sure to be well received and leave delighted with your visit. He lias also on hand a full sto£k of other goods in his litre. MISS L. J. LECKIE. This lady has a card in the Echo to ^ readerH^ It is needless ^use for us to advise our 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¬ tomers. HILL’S HEPATIC PANACEA. It is against our rule to call local at¬ tention to a patent medicine, but in vio¬ lating believe it in this instance we we arc conferring a blessing suffering humanity. The above paration is manufactured by Dr. W, H. Barrett, of Augusta, one of onr most 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 ^ The Henpecked Husband The henpecked man is most general ly married, but there are instances on ,T,e^iilf el6 mc “ bei “ B harrassed * You flan alwus tell one of these kind ov men, esphshily if they are in the company ov their wives.
