A.

The price hat since increased somewhat, but there are still sets to be bad at very moderate priees compared with the ooel to tbe Government. There is no donbt that several members sold their sets outright, or allowed persona connected with or dependant npon them to make sales and pocket the prior. Is it in order to aak what the members from Georgia did with their copies? We have a few physicians and surgeons in this Bute, but if any of them have been the reoipients of this very valuable work—one, too, that would have been ao acceptable to them—we have not beard of it.

This old, honored and able organ of tbe Bap tists of Georgia and the cotton-growiDg regions, as heretofore annonneed, has passed into the hands of several new proprietors, who will ope- rate under the firm name of Jas. P. Harrison A Oo. in a general business of publication snd printing. Mr. Harrison hts displayed signal ability in this department heretofore, and we are confident will prove a valuable leader iu tbo w enterprise. Hev. D. E. Butler and Dr. J. Lawton, also of the fi-m, are associated with Rev. Dr. Shaver in the editorial direotion of the Index. Both are fine writers and highly intelli gent gentlemen. The return of Dr. Bhavor to the poiilion of editorial chief will delight all the readers of the Index. Under its new aus pices, we anticipate a career of great vigor and nsefulnesa for the Index, and are oonfident wilt maintain a very influential and promi nent position among tbe religions journals of the day. “Cham.” A correspondent of the London Wine Trade Review, writing from Champagne, after a oare- ful examination of the most trustworthy ao- oonnts from all quarters, says that two-thirds of the champagne orop has been annihilated, and that the loss may be still greater in consequence of tbe dangerous contingencies of the remain ing months preceding the vintage. In conse quence of this state of affairs, the Wine Trade Review says that wines in bottle as well as wines in wood have increased largely in price. That journal is oertainly not well informed of tho oapaoitles of this country for making up defioienoes In tbs champagne grape orop, or it wonld not havo ventured to prediot a rise in prioe on aooount of the failure of tha grape in Franoe. There was an enormous orop of apples in New Jersey last year, and there need be no inorease in the prioe of champagne in this country aa long as the older of that orop remains un consumed. Tit Cam op Ms. I. N.

A telegram of tha 28th lost, to tin Atlanta Constitution of yesterday says: "It Is impoasible this afternoon to get a cor net report of the deaths from cholera to day, but the disease is as bad. If not worse, than it was yesterday. Many that use the greatest precaution* are taken with it, and it prevails in •very part of tho city." The Union and Ameri can of Wednesday say* there were forty-four deaths from the disease for twenty-fonr hour* ending at 5 o'clock.

Tbe Gouty F*Ir-FIr*t Bay. The reader will find full particulars of this noble demonstration of tha farm prodnots and borne industry of the people of Bibb, In its ap propriate plaoe in onr oolnmns. Tbe day was all that conld be desired, snd the exhibition a sneoeas in every sense of the word. 'Bnoh vegetables have never been surpassed in any market or climate. And tte array of flow ers waa also qnlte profase, and arranged with consummate taste. To-morrow, we trust, will even evinoe Increased interest in tbe Exposition by onr country friends, who ought all to be here. How gratefnl are these triumphs of peaoe. *Ai far aa the people of the Northern btates are concerned, without distinction of party,they have bnt one wish for tbe South, and that is a hearty and strong wish for Its prosperity. They hope, snd they believe, that tbe ‘Southern ques tion' has entered for the last time into national polities. They desire for tto future to dtal with the Southern people without any reference to politio*. to bny of them and eell to them, and to work with them as they dr. with each other, on the basis of mutual good will, and ‘he prac tical relatione of common oittatnship. If the the Southern people wtU devote themselves in politics to tbe task of securing good govern ment for their Btates and minor districts, tbs people of tbe North will give them their sym pathy. and will rejoloe in whatever suooess they may attain. It is a task the people of sU the States most soon undertake in earnest, and the present is an excellent season, everywhere, to begin.” Thus the New York Timas. Fine words but- ter no parsnips, however. This Is all very ■weet and satisfactory, bnt It won’t wash—at least H never has. When the Time3 says the North will give the South ils sympathy, and will rejoioe at onr success in securing good State governments, wo think of Louisiana and won der if the Times has forgotten that illustration of Northern sympathy and rejoioing. The Times moat certainly think the people of the Sonth have neither sense not memory when it endeavor to foroe anoh flapdoodle down their throats. A Sad Beexavzvxst.—We find the following in the last Milledgeville Union andReoorder: Death of Da. Rich aid H. Hahbis.—Intelli gence haajnatbeou reoeiTed that Dr. Richard n Harris, non of Judge Iverson L. Harris, died on the 4th loot., at Columbia. Louisiana. Dr. Harris waa in bia S5th year; he settled in Oatonla pariah in 1S60—and, having reoeived a military education, was elected to the oommana of a oompany in the celebrated 11th LonUiana Regiment of Col. Marks—and participated in toe battler of Belmont and Shiloh. Thus with in the spaoe of 18 months are aged parents Ctlled on to mourn another gallant eon. The sympathise, not only of hU immediate friends and neighbors, but of the people of the State by whom he U so well known and highly regarded, are with Judge and Mrs. Harris in this nd hour. Truly have they been- eorely afflicted. W* offer onr sincere oondclenoe. Tbe Aaaexotleu ef Hawaii. The Washington Republican states that in tha oosimnmoatioo* of A. 1C. Paooook, rear- admiral comm an ding tha North Paoifle fleet, to tha Navy Department respecting hia reeent viatt to Honolulu, he eeyl there waa maeh ex citement and discusvion on tha part of tbs naturalized citizens and foreign population of the kingdom in relation to the preeent embar rassed condition and future prospects of the Sandwich Islands. Ha eontinnaa: “It U believed by many who have studied well the subject that under existing oircum- stanoes the revenue, derived from all available sources will be insufficient to oontlnne the Gov ernment aoeeeesf ally for a longer period '*■" two or three yean, although a rigid retrench ment in public improvements, end a reduction of many salaried officers incidental to tbe king, dom, may possibly prolong tha national exis tence beyond that time. AH ihtwHng man in Honolulu have arrived at the oonolnsion that something decisive must be speedily done to avoid incurring a foieign debt, whdoh would ultimately piece the islands at the mercy of that Government whose oi tissue shell hold the elaim As a remedy a small party advocate simply a 'reciprocity treaty* with the United States. This party seems sanguine that suoh a treaty oan be projected. Simple and direct annexa tion is advocated by quite a respectable party.; but a still larger and more influential party ad vocates a reciprocity treaty, and (aa an induoe- ment for the United States to grant it) are dis cussing the propriety of oeding to tte United Sistes forever Pearl river end adjaoent laud*. This would give a Sue, oommodions harbor, provided tbe entranoe thereto shall be deepened and improved, which, in my opinion, oan be done at a prioe exceedingly smell in comparison with tbe importance to tbe United a ales of bolding forever tbe only harbor of these <aland. which oan well be defended, and where vessels will be entirely out of reach of bombardment from ‘.be see. The possession of this harbor and adjacent lands, not less than ten miles square in extent, would give us virtually the oontro! cf the island, aud wonld put the United s ate* m a favorable position to decide at onoe npen tbe course which the Government may find it expedient to punas in case of suob eventualities aa will probably Boon arise, aud whloh will assuredly bring np for final dis position tbe question of the ultimate posses sion of those islands. I regard the present discussion as the openion of that question. Pearl river is situated about eight mile* west of Honolulu. To enable engineen to make a correot estimate of the oost of deepening and improving the entranoe, I will eauae an accurate survey to be made, in order that the Navy Department may be in poaseaaion of the necessary information in the event of the above proposition being made to tbe Government of tbe United States Tbe propriety of sending a commission to Washington to nrge one or the other of these propositions as may be deeided npon is also being diaenssed, and I have no donbt that tbe nrgency of the situation wtU in a short time foroe a decision on the part of those moving in tbe matter. The discussions and Huggcsiions np to this time are oonflned to the leading oitizens aud business men of tha oom- rnnnity who have taken the initiative. The action whioh tbe Government may be indnoed to take in response to these suggestions, and the imperative necessity of the situation, has not yet boon developed, althongh ihere is no donbt that tbe advisors of the Sing are alive to and deeply engrossed with the question. I shall closely watch the sitnation snd hold myself free lo forward snch views as the Government of the United Statea may deaid* upon.” The Wrong* of the atargeou. A correspondent of the Biohmond Dispatch who is luxuriating at Old Point Comfort, and pnrsning his investigations into tha habits and flavor of thennmeronacraatnraawhiah the green seas do inhabit in that region, has something to tell about tha sturgeon whloh la new at least to us. Saith ha i And, now, I want to tell you a thing about tbe sturgeon, whloh is new to me: People who see that fish make its groat leaps out of tha water i Link he is very j illy and haviDg a high old time. It is a geest mistake. He is trying to disengage from his gills and body the lampreys and other eels which eat into hia flesh. The sturgeon has no teeth; he has a funnel-shaped month beneath his head, and a nose forward of that, with which he stirs np the mud and geta his food, whloh ha socks in with his mouth. So ha has no means of defenoo when attacked, bnt must “run for it.” His rows of plates are some protection; but the tender flash along hia belly ia maeh coveted by ,uj. Inn. and voracious wretches as eels. The eel is especially tona or the eggs of the sturgeon, and will tunnel a way by tbe analorfice and enter tbe body of tbe poor vietim in pursuit of bis favorite food. Could there be a more excruciating torture! To be absolutely eaten alive! It is enough to raise a crusade against eels amongst all generous and humane people, the more especially when we consider what ex cellent food for man the sturgeon is! I oonld give you a most interesting chapter on the amrgeon, bnt I forbear, and I bear tha reader say “thank God!” I will say, however, that the stnrgeon is really tbe best and most useful of all fish in the Richmond market, and he is not appreciated beoinse he is for ao long a season in such abundanoe. Sturgeon is good any way, but for salad it bas no superior. In olden times it was a royal disb, and was served with great pomp in anoient Greece and Rome. There are many varieties of stnrgeon; one, that is fonnd in the Caspian sea, known aa tbe sterlet, which grows only to the length of two or three feet, is reported to be the moat delioate and palatable of all the varieties. The United States Fish Commissioner, Mr. Baird, is endeavoring to propagate it in this oountry. It wonld Sourish in Jamas river. The Chinese Court oo Parade, It seems that the Mikado of Japan is not the only Oriental potentate who has forsaken tho ancient Bednsion of his august rank. The Em peror of China has actually shown himself to the vulgar world outside of the Dragon Palace. JBa lately paid to the tombs of his anosttora the annual visit which Is exacted of every oocupant of the imperial throne. On coming forth from the palace, he asked where the all people were. The streets, according to custom, were as de serted as tb030 of Coventry when Lady Godiva took her famous horseback exeroise; even the lattices and doors were scaled with stripe of pa. per. The Son of Heaven, when told that no common eye was permitted to look npon the form of the Emperor of China, replied rather irreverently, that be did not see why the people should not see him.— Accordingly, when ho returned from the ancestral tombs, after several days’ ab sence, the Imperial show was witnessed by all who chose to look. An English correspond ent of a Shanghai journal, who stood in line most loyally several hours to gaze upon the person of “the Solitary Man," describes the Emperor as looking about forty years of age, rather than nineteen, as be is reputed to be. He bad a dissipated look, a long, pointed faee, with a worn expression. Tbe Empress Dowager and Empress Mother aeeompanied him, each borne in chair* on man’s shoulder*. Tha pro cession was a mob of offloiala and spearmen, and was oonoluded with eighteen oarta covered with yellow cloth containing the Imperial eon- oubines. Tha exhibition, though significant, was disappointing to the foreign spectators. .

Tharp, addressing the Baptiste through the Christian Index, says: I wish the people to give interest bearing notes, a* the most pmetical way for the endow ment ot the University. It oan be dona on the Peter Penoe plan; bnt that wonld require too much time aud labor. It oould be done if a sufficient number of our friend* would endow each a professorship. That ia tha nearest way, and the shortest route; but to that there are two objection*. First, few are able; and aeoend, pait of that few are unwilling. Most of that olaas ot man are old, and their estates are encumbered, and they are under outaide pressure. _ . ... The most practical way, therefore, ia to giro notes due some time in the future, pay tha interest annually, and pay principal at maturi ty That will furnish endowment, pay current expenses, snd find at same time safe invest ment. If enough of our friends would do this, we could soon dispense with all tuition; and by reducing board, famishing education to all the poor at minimum cost. Thar* are plenty of them able to give on these terms. God, who makes his people his depositary, does not allow one act of giving to bankrupt them. He will famish the means of giving to those who seek hia giory by giving. Let us therefore give these “time notes" in abundanoe; pay inter** promptly to tha Treasurer; pay principal when due, end we ahall make our dear old Institution all we wish her to be. Bar. E. W.

Bxlfast, ilz , June 1C—This morning a farmer, his wife and two ohildren, living 18 miles from here, were found dead in bed. The murdered min’s brother, John T. Gordon, has been arrested on snspioion. John GordoB, a man seventy years old, had recently oooveyed to hia son Almon M. hia farm, worth $5,000, taking back a mortgage for life for tbe support of himself and wife. The other son, John T., was dissatisfied with the arrange- ment, and probably thought that by the death of his brother and family the property wonld fall to him. This ia the only motive thns far assigned. At the time of tbo murder tbe old people were absent on a visit. The inmates of the honse were the murdered man, Almon M. aged 25; Emma A , hia wife, aged 22; their children, Ira B , aged 6; a little girl, aged 17 months; Anna, a niece, aged 9; John, 7,tbe broth- er, and a hired man. Abont 3 o'olock a. sl, the latter was awakened by the shrieks of a little boy, and he immediately discovered that the house was on fire. He informed the neigh- bora, and the flames were extinguished without much damage. The bodies of tbe father, mother and infant who occupiod the same bed, were soon found, maDgled, and so scorched as to be hardly recognizable. The little boy, who slept in the crib in the same room, waa severely wounded, but may survive. Tbe bloody deed waa evidently oommitled with an axe whioh was found on the premises. Tbe wounds of tho three murdered persons were inflicted upon the head, and most have oiused instant death. Tbe brother, John T., arrested on suspicion, is twenty-eight years old, a farm laborer and un married. He maintains sullen indifference, refusing to answer any question, bnt saying at the proper time be will defend himself. Tbe coroner held the inquest this afternoon. Tbe prisoner will probably be arraigned before the polios oourt in this oily to-morrow. Tbe Sort of Material Which la Being Uses! In Making Army officers. New York Herald West Point Letter ] Tha first impression made on the mind of tbe visitor who listens to the recitals of the osdets ia that he hu made a mistake in entering the elan room; that it U not an Amerioan, bnt an English oompany assembled, and the first is that the osdets secretly worship a Josh set np somewhere in the Aeadamy, and that Josh Lord Dnndreary. Wait and watch while a candidate for adminion into the Amerioan army aa an officer rises, and let your ear drink in the words that flow from hia drilled and regulated lips as he recites. Ha itapa forward to the blackboard as if treading upon eggs, with the jerky, twisty gait that only colons of the first families have, and whioh ia seen to perfeotion in tbe walk of English officers of tho nobility aa known to the wanS’liiTutiTy'T'e!^ ln"\!ia ^an&V’Ee begins a “haw, ah” almost indistinot drawl, very fash- ionable, and, considering the circumstances, very funny; continues in a strain of slurred English, and ends his piece of explanatory an- swer in broken words. This is the model oadet, the oadet “in form,” the oadet most admired, who elioita from tbe ladies the conclusive judg ment, “How uioe!” obtains approving nodB from the “grave and reverend seignora" of the faculty, and on whom, in a vacant, helpless way, tha Congressmen of the Board of Visitors smile. Of oourse all the oadets are not so fa- vored. There are some who prefer to be Amer ican in everything, hut I greatly fear they are in the minority. The cadet who acts as adju tant at the evening parades is always a high priest of Josh Dundreary. He ia very impres sive when he reads ont the orders, inas much as nobody oomprehendshim. The ladies delight in him, though, and think him most en- giging when least understood. Perhaps they are right. It is a mistake, though, for these young men to think that the ridionlons drawl whioh Mr. Solhern makes so fanny on the stage is soldierly or admirable. The English snobs who affect that kind of inanity are not allowed to praotioe it muoh in their army. A oadet at Sandhurst or an officer in the field who would “haw-haw,” and dilate his words in that fash- ion, wonld be very likely to hear a disapproval of it in very plain Eoglish from his superiors. Bnobbery Is pleasing to weak-minded young women and to the snob family in general; bnt it ia very muoh out of plaoe in an army, espe cially the aimy cf the United States. Hew theVleoneiellvf. Baltimore American Letter.] There are very few houses in this oily in which from ten to twenty families do not re side, nor are there any bouses, in the now Mo tion of the oity especially, which cover less than tbe half of a square, though moat of them take in the whole front, from corner to corner. The lower story, and very frequently the two lower stories, are taken for business, and the three or four upper stories are let out to families. Many of these families take more rooms than they re quire, whioh they furnish and let out to stu dents and others, at ao muoh per month. Thns it is that almost every housekeeper haa furnish ed rooms to rent. Many of these ocoupants of rooms oontract with the landlady to furnish them with the usual German breakfast, consist ing of a cup of ooffee and a roil of bread. Tbe rest of their meals are taken at the restanxants and cafes. The only bnilding somewhat in the style of the Viennese houses in Baltimore, is that in the course of erection on the corner of Charles and Centre streets," whioh is to be rent ed in suites of rooms to families. It, however, is to have a restaurant connected with it, and will probably lead to the introdnotion of the “Vienna flat” into Baltimore. Among the poorer cIosms, there are some houses contain, ing from eight hundred to three thousand peo ple. New York Gossip. Tbe latest story touohing the Bowen-Beeeber- Tilton scandal is, that Bowen will print a pam phlet, designed to exculpate him from all tha ohargea that have been brought against him. His fnands say he haa been rapnaented as a base vilifler, and that it it hia duty to prove ha is nothing of the kind. So it aeema tha end ia not yet. Thomas Nast, it ia asserted, haa had a very liberal offer from the publishers of the Grsphio to eonnaet himself with that paper as soon aa ha returns home. Tha Harpers are vary un willing to lose him, and they will, therefore, in all probability, advanoe hia salary. Then the Graphic will inorease its terms, and the Harper* will add something thereto. Thus, between the two, Neat may be enabled to seoare tba vary handsome salary to which hia ability entitles Mm. A number of fashionable women have entered inte * league against men who part their hair in the middle—solemnly asseverating that they will not have any inch In their train of admir ers, or in their list of friends. Parting the hair in the middle is a Billy fashion; but, if man wish to be silly, they should have tha same privilege to be that women have. The men, I suppose, will now meet in oonclave, and declare that they will not oonatenanoe tbe women who wear ehtgnona.—Chicago Jribune Letter, Thx Bkzchzr- Bowxn -Tilton Scandal.—A special dispatch to the Chicago Tribune saya it is stated by authority that Plymouth Church do** not intend to call Mr. Henry O. Bowen to aeoonnt for anything he may have said reflect- ing on Mr. Beecher; that it will not investigate the charges against Mr. Beecher, and that hXGwt Mr. Beecher, Mr. Bowen, nor Mr. Til ton will take any farther notioe of the eeandaL Henri Ward Brxchxb preached a Univer- aaliat sermon at his Brooklyn church, Sunday.
