Theatre.
In consequence of the Campbell Min-1
strels, there was no audience at the j
Theatre last night. The splendid bill— j
“School for Scandal,” “Marseilles'
Bj’um,” and the farce of “Slasher and i
Crasher,” —will be offered ag tin Monday \
night.
It is a standing reproach to the libe- |
ralityand taste of lovers of amusement!
in a city like this, that such a company j
as Mr. Maugham's, should play to emp- 1
ty benches night after night, as they I
have done so often for two weeks, while |
other amusements of far less merit will j
fill a hall in inclement weather. Tell i
it not in Gath or elsewhere—but it is so. i
We mean to cast no reflection on the ■
Campbells—they are deservedly popu-!
lar—but simply to express surprise and j
regret that while there are so many ad
mireis of that class of amusement, there !
are so few among us who appreciate the ;
drama.
Theatre.
Mr. Maugham respectfully intimates
to the public, that be has arranged with
Mr. Peel, for the Minstrel band to per
form this and to-morrow evenings, (B’ri
day and Saturday.) and that in conse
quence, the representation of the great
comedy the School for Scandal will not
take place until next Monday, Bth Feb
ruary. o
Peel’s Campbell Minstrels.
Mat Peel’s Campbell Minstrels had
a large house last night, which they
kept in a fine humor with their rich
songs, burlesques and witticisms. Peel
is a favorite in Augusta, and all other
attractions have to stand aside when he
cames among us. They appear again
to-night, at Concert Hall.
Thorburn’s Garden Seed
V. LaTaste, at the new Drug Store
opposite, has placed on our table a pack
age of garden seeds just received from
Thorburn’s celebrated Seed establish
ment. The papers are very large, and
put up in a tasteful style, which is one
of the essential accomplishments of a
successful druggist.

Puff! Puff! Puff!
■ Heaven bless the man who invented
sleep,” said Saxcho Pam.a. Heaven
bless the man that invented cigars, say
we. Fits Boodle, in his “Confessions,"
pronounces a good cigar just the thing
“after a hard day’s sport, or a day spent
in doors; after a good dinner or a bad
one ; at night when you are tired, or in
the morning when you are fresh ; of a
cold winter day, or of a scorching sum
mer afternoon—or at any moment you
may choose to think upon.” Fits Boo
dle was right, and was no doubt a man
of taste.
Speaking of cigars reminds us that
Messrs. B. Douglas & Co., under the
Newton House, presented us, this
morning, with a box which we have
sampled, and arc prepared to pronounce
good. Besides many excellent brands of
cigars, they keep and are prepared to
sell, on reasonable terms, a fine stock of
liquors. Mr. Wolfe, the Augusta part
ner, is a clever and courteous gentleman,
and we commend him and his establish
ment to the favorable notice of our rea
ders.
Merchant's Exchange,
The time for the meeting of the Mer
chant's Exchange has been changed to
11 o’clock in the morning, instead of 10
o'clock.
Tire Kaolin Fruit Cnn.
Wo have been shown a new fruit can
manufactured by the Porcelain Manu
iacturing Company, of this city, at their
works in Edgefield District. It is de
signed to be used with Dayton’s Ex
hauster, recently introduced into the
State, and furnished by \V. H. Goon
p-icir, in Augusta, and by dealers in all
parts of the country.
This can has decided advantages over
any that we have seen. It is mnch
larger and cheaper, it is not translucent,
and, therefore, fruit will retain its nat
ural color ; it may be heated without
danger of breaking like glass ; it is not
corrosive, and is very neat inits appear
ance. The top is so arranged as to be
sealed by means of the Exhauster the
process of which is very simple, and is
luliy explained in the circuits accom
panying it.
The trouble, and danger of loss, has
been quite discouraging to those who
have put up fruit by many of the plans j
in use. The method now presented j
promises to remedy those evils and is
worthy of attention.

The Three New States.
There are now three new Territories
knocking at the door of the Capitol
' for admission into the Union—Kansas,
1 Minnesota and Oregon. The Constitu
tion of the last mentioned was laid be
fore the House of Kepresentatives by I
her delegate, General Lane, on Monday,
aud Mr. Douglas made an earnest en
j deavor to bring up that of Minnesota,
: with a view to admitting her to the
family circle, but without success—cer
! tain Southern Senators being desirous
i to hitch Kansas on to the new comer,
Pis if to make the admission of the one,
'i with the odious Lecompton Constitu
tion, a condition for the admisston of
, the other. Now. this proposition to
j couple Kansas with Minnesota, has the
: appearance of another unworthy ‘dodge’
! or ‘juggle,’ and we trust it will be oppos
-1 ed accordingly. What lias Minnesota !
,! to do with Kansas, or Kansas with Min
jnesota? If Minnesota is legally quali- j
lied for admission, admit her upon those
qualifications. If she is not legally
qualified, exclude her until she is ‘le
> gal.’ But fair play demands that she
, come iu, or be kept out, on her own
merits. The same rule should be ob
served in regard to Kansas.
Be the result of these present party
. and sectional complications what they
may, however, we may reasonably con
clude that the three new States are
t bound to come into the Union before
. Congress adjourns thus multiplying
] the members of the Confederacy to
| thirty-four. So far as Oregon and Min
! neseta are concerned, the question of
] freedom or slavery, happily, is not rais
-1 ied -nature and ‘circumstances’ having
,■ settled it in favor of the former. Kan
-1! sag alone is in trouble—but the hour of
j her deliverance draws nigh. —New York

e A Populous Town.
3 _ Oxford precinct, in Johnston county,
Kansas, which, at the previous election,
returned seventeen hundred Y-otes for
the pro-slavery candidates for members
of the Legislature, at the recent can
e vass, returned two thousand two hun
_ dred votes for the Democratic State
ticket, showing au increase of five hun

tio of voters is the same in Oxford pre
j cinct (says the N. Y. Herald) that it is
in this city, the town has a population
e of over twenty thousand ; yet Governor
i Walker says there are not four hundred
-inhabitants in the whole county.
Col. Frank Anderson.
I j A Pensacola correspondent informs us
, that Col. Anderson with his command
J arrived there on the morning of the
| 1 31st, from Key West, in charge of the
; United States Marshal. They came on
r; the mail steamer Atlantic, on their way
j! to New Orleans. On their arrival at
I Key West, Com. Paulding a
■ complaint of some sort and had them
i tried before the Circuit Court, the de
, cision of which was to send them to
New Orleans in custody of the Marshal.

Looking after tlie Coppers.
II The old adage says—“ Look after the
] the coppers—the dollars will take care
; of themselves.” One of our neighbors
. 1 in Water street, had a bill due to him
|in Hanover street for some fifteen dol
’! iars, and mentioning the fact in the
:! presence of a lady, she proposed to col
,; iect it for him. He said she might, and
1 j told her if she would bring it to him in
I j copper she should have a quarter part
i-of it. She procured a wheelbarrow,
f j took the fifteen hundred coppers on it
!in a box, and started with her load.—
She attracted much attention, but took
, no notice of those who stared at her. —
. She was oblivious to every circumstance
but that of looking after her coppers,
and wheeled the entire distance, receiv
ing, as she deserved, when she arrived
!at Water street, the sum she had so
j manfully earned.— Gazette.

Digging for tl»e Kidd Treasure.
i We learn from the Syracuse Standard
'that this mania is pervading that town.
The Standard says. :
A company of men are digging for
i gold in one of the hi! linear our ci.y, and
we lire collecting the particulars in rela
tion to the affair. The digging is now
progressing with all the mystery of
superstition, and the persons engaged
in searching confidently expect soon to
realize their expectations. The treasure
was disc vered by divining rods and
other instruments known only to the
initiated, and is supposed to be watched
over ty a guardian spirit that instantan
eously removes it beyond the reach of
the persons searching for it, if the spell
is broken by a loud word uttered within
ja magic circle. The treasure has al
ready been touched by a “crow-bar,”
but an involuntary exclamation by one
of the party caused the gold to be in
stantly removed by the guardian spirit,
underneath the earth, to another place
not far distant. On accountof some in
advertence on the part of the members
of the company, the gold has already
been moved four times, but now the
men have resolved to keep their months
shut and prevent intruders from coining
within the magic circle, and are confi
dent of soon reaching anti seizing the
treasure.

Aaron Burr.
Some controversy has recently taken
place witlijrefereucc to the final disposi
tion of a mass of Aaron Burr's papers. A
correspondent of the Evening Post, wri
tihg from Hartford, says that in 1810
Mr. H , an autograph hunter of that ci
ty, found on board a vessel in jthe liar
i hor several large sacks of papeis which
! bad belonged to Aaron Burr, and many
l of which bore his signature. The lot
j had been purchased in New York, and
I was consigned to afirm of paper makers.
Mr. H. stopped them in transitu , exani
amined them, took what he wanted,and
finally let them passto the paper mill.
Most of these papers were of a business
character, but a few were from or to fe
male correspondents They tiled lit
tle or no light, however,on Burr's char
acter.
From the N. Y. 7'ribune.
Mr. Buchanan persists in his infatua
tion. He declared that the Lecompton
Constitution must and should go
through Congress.
A caucus of Democratic Senators will
be held to-day in the Vice Presidents
room, at which a resolution will be in
troduced approving the course of the
Administration in regard to Kansas.—
The object is to drive Douglas out of
the paity. I understand that be is
ready to go.
The States has received no patronage
from the Administration, and declined
the binding for the Departments, be
cause it was hampered with the condi-!
i tion of Wendell's doing the work and
| dividing the spoils. The Star gets an
| advertisement worth $15,000.

, Rfmarks.—The increased sales of the last two
weeks has thrown a more cheerful aspect over
our business circles. Trade is improving, and
there is a greater disposition to enter upon the
business of the opening season. We look for a
healthy, but not heavy spring business.
Bacon.—The receipts of bacon are increasing,
and the supj ly Is fully equal to the irnmedi-.te
demand. We quote hams 12% ; sides 11 ; hog
round 10% cents. The general impression that
prices must decline, confines sales to small lots.
Flock —The stock on the market is very large,
and the article is dull ut $5 for country superfine,
to $7 for family. Sales cannot be made iu large
qu ntities at these prices.
Wheat.—There is but very little doing in
Wheat. Sales have been made at 95 to $1 05.
but we quote as 1 05 for Red, to $1 15 for White.
•Corn.—Dull, and prices nominal—say 00 t 065
cents in sacks.
Oats.—There is less demand lor Oats, and we
quote 53 to 65 cents.
Eggs.—The supply on the market is very large.
Several hundred dozen sold yestorday at 10c.
Lard —The market is well supplied, and the
demand moderate, atlO to 10% cents.
Butter.—Country brings 20 cents. Goshen
22 to 25 cent'. Supply ample.
Cekesb—Supply light, prices unchanged.
Molasses.—The stock of this article is fair, and
prices are rather irregular. Our quotations are
as near as any we could give.
Sugar.—We have no change to report in sugar.
.See our 1 prices current.”
Guano.—There is an ample supply of pure
Peruvian Guano in market, ut 3% cents, cash,
to 4 cents on time.
Potatoes.—There is a demand for planting po
tatoes, ai d a good article usually brings $4.
Lots have been sold from the wnarf, and on con
signment, at lower figures.
Feathers,—There is a good supply in market,
with limited demand at 37 to 40 cents.
Salt.—The sales are limited, and a mcr.chan
chantiblo article is quoted ai sl.

JOYFUL NKWS TO
Rheumatic Sufferers.
Oh, the amount of Buffering that has beon cmlur
ed, ami the thousands of deaths that have
occurred for the want of a proper and
timely remedy for this dreadful dig
ease which Is invariably found In
LYNCH’S ANTI-RHEUMATIC POWDERS.
rpHE only sure and radical cure yet
JL discovered. See circular and the following
CERTIFICATES :
I do hereby certify that, after suffering for
thirty-three years with the most excruciating
■ pain from Chronic Rheumatism, and finding no
ix-rmaneut relief from any of the many prescrip
tions given me by different physicians. I am
now entirely well, not only of Rheumatism it
self, but likewise of its effects. This cure was
effected by a preparation styled Lynch’s Auti-
Rbeumatic Powders Os these powders I took
two dozen, and buv ‘not had anv svmptoms of
my old pains for thr ' -years. The effect upon
me was like magic Within three days after j
had takeu the first powder, my pains disappear
ed, and I have been entirely clear of them up to
the present time.
To all suffering from Rheumatism I do hearti
ly recommend these powders, confidently be
lieving that you have only to give them a trial
to secure a lasting cure.
Most respectfully, Joinr Ijxch.
Eatonton, April 22, 1855.
I have no hesitation in saying, that after hav
ing sullered for upwards of thirty years with
Rheumatism in the most dreadftil form—first ic
my toes, then my thumbs, wrists and knees, and
lastly, most excruciatingly in my Deck, I took
i two or three dozen ot Lynch’s Anti Rheumatic
i Powders, and notwithstanding lam old and my
i constitution much shattered. 1 have received the
i greatest benefit imaginable; my relief from
i suffering and pain, I cannot attribute to any thing
i but the powders, lor 1 have tried everything
i in vaiu, that friends could suggest or physicians
i prescribe. I would, therefore, earnestly re
i commend them to every sufferer of this dread
i ful disease, let him be old or young.
Rob’t Myrictc,
i Eatonton, April 2, 1855.
i lam happy to state, for the benefit of those
i who are afflicted with Rheumatism, that a per
i feet cure has been affected in the person of a ne
• ftro man of mine by Lynch’s Anti Rheumatic
I Powders, the said boy having suffered with it
incessantly for twenty years, lost at. least ou«
, third of his time until he took the above pow
, ders. Since which time, now nearly two years
