LOCAL MATTERS.
Fire.
At 7 o’clock last night an alarm of
fire was caused by the burning of a sta
ble between Ellis and Greene streets,
above Centre, belonging to the estate of
William Harper. The stable was con
tiguous to wooden buildings, to which the
fire was spreading, and the residence of
Mr. Gross was in imminent danger, but
in fifteen minutes from the moment of
the alarm, the firemen had extinguish
ed the flames. Their promptness pre
vented a serious conflagration.
Blind Tom, tile Pianist.
The manager of this wonderful musi
•al prodigy has consented to remain un
til Wednesday next, when he will posi
tively leave for a tour in the towns and
cities of South Carolina. We have
heard but one opinion expressed by;
those who have visited his Soirees here'
—that of astonishment andaawe. The
music as it rolls from the piano at his
touch, seems like a voice from another
world —so utterly incapable is he of mu
sical tuition, and so perfect is his recol
lection and executian of pieces that he
has once heard. No arbitrary rules con
trol him, and while he plat-s the most
difficult tunes, he often adds the most
novel and touching variations and
play; several pieces of his own compo
sition.
Among these, are what the rain, and
the birds say to him, in which he has
set to music the pattering of the rain
on the roof, and the varied notes of the
birds, as he hears them in the woods.
He delights in all the harmonies of na
ture-loves to be in the woods among ]
the singing birds and the chirping squir-j
rels, and yet on ail subjects, save mu-i
sic, is idiotic. He is worth - seeing, as
one of tlie strangest of nature's phe
nomena.
Theatre*
The bill at Concert Hall to night isan
attractive one to lovers of comedy.—
Mr. and Mrs. Florence, who have ac
quired a wide reputation in this coun
try and Europe, make their first and
only appearance, and will he sustained
by the entire company.
Euphonious Encomiums.
Augusta is not as large, perhaps, as |
some other American cities, but it is a I
question with ns whether any of them
contain more "purlieus;” and more eu
phonious designations for these purlieus
We append such of them as we wot of,
■commencing with the upper part of the
•city, and going down ; Dublin, Canaan,
Poverty Range, Pig Tail, Holland,
Shakerag, and Pincbgut.

The Struggle Cowing in IMGO.
The Southern Citizen , in the course of a ’
■ reply to objections urged against that,
. paper, that it was too Southern, says : 1
“ Everything that has befallen us|
since our first number was issued, con
firms us in the belief that parties in
this country, arc fast resolving into
two— the party of the North and the
i party of tlie South ; that tlie North Is
I concentrating its forces and choosing its
ground ; and that the day is coming
1 (say in the year 1860) when neither the
National Democracy, nor any other
combination of national politics, will be j
able to save these Southern States from
falling under the preponderant power,
and so becoming and remaining thence
forth a tributary province.
The issue is not Slavery or Anti-Slave
ry. There is no danger whatever to our
institution. Nobody at the North cares
about Negroes. On the contrary*, once
j the political and commercial supremacy
jis assured, tlie more negroes - .ve have,
the better we shall please our Northern
brethren, because we shall make more
produce for them to trade upon. In the
meantime, ‘ Slavery ’ answers for a cry
I and a watchword.”

From Havana.
The New Orleans papers contain dates
from Havana, by the steamship Phila
delphia, to tlie 26th ult.
Tlie quotations for sugar, at the la
test reports, were, for inferior to ordi
nary white, 10 1-4 a 10 3-4 reals ; for
good to superior, 11 all 8-4; vacum
pan, 11 all 1-2 ; superior ditto, 11 3-2
al3 1-1; for inferior to ordinary ca.zuclm,
6 a 0 1-6; good to superior, 0 1-2 ati
3-4 ; for inferior to ordinary crushed,
7 1-4 a 7 3-4 ; good, 8 a 8 1-2 ; superior,!
834 a9 ; very finest, 9 1-4 a 9 1-2: In
oil.i r sorts there was w thing doing.
For second and third qualities of cof
fee, the quotations are from $lO a sll
per quintal.
Exchange on New Orleans C a 4 per
cent premium.
The season is one of unusual gaiety
in Havana, and the carnival had been
celebrated with unusual sumptuousness
Great drought has been prevailing at
Matanzas during last month. A rial
per keg has been charged for water,
and it could only with difficulty be pro
cured at that price. There had been!
heavy rain in Havana lately, however,
and it was believed to have been pretty
general.

One item in the wardrobe of the!
Princess Royal of England on her mar |
ri:\gc should attract the attention of l
American women and be adopted by j
them. A part of her ‘fit out’ was 321
pair of boots, which are described as
useful and solid. Some of them, in
tended for rough walking, were provi
ded with treble soles.
Though an innovation of a custom
which has prevailed with the fair sex I
since 1633, this would be a change de
voutly wished, and suggestive of intel
lectual advancement us well as pruden
tial regard for the health of the body,
•([ually as becoming as symmetry of
form, ruddy cheeks, or flowing tresses.
The pit-a-pat glide of a damsel in slip
pers is as bewitching, we' know, as the
kip of a fawn, but like a crape shawl,
liould yield to tlie season, the most
fastidious ogler preferring the rough 1
'rampof boots in midwinter, though a
less bounding swell in crinoline. In
leed, we are gratified to say. that hero
bouts the example of the Princes Roy
11 was anticipated. Roots arc fashiona

Items of Gossip.
The following story is told as having j
really occurred in Richmond on the day ,
subsequent to the uncovering of Craw
ford's equestrian statue of Washington : i
Two blacks passing through the park
felt to criticising the work. “I tell you, j
sir, God A’mighty killed do man dat !
made dat boss ; de Lord aint gwine to
’low sieh tings—its too liateral. God
was jealous obhim.”
_ We doubt whether tlie marble is des
tined ever to receive a higher compli
ment. Mrs. Crawford is now in Rich
mond : ’tis said she hurst into tears
when the statute was uncovered on the
22d inst.
A printer who was recently filling’ bv
his sweetheart, went to the'office anil
tried to commit suicide with the ‘shoot
ing slick,’ but the thing wouldn’t go
off. ’file ‘devil’ wished to pacify him,
and told him to peep into tlie sanctum,
where the editor was writing duns to
; delinquent subscribers. He says that
picture of despair ‘reconciled him to
j liis fate.’
Kaasns Don’t Pay.
Verily, this doctrine of non-interven
tion seems to be now practically under
stood to be that the affairs of the Ter
ritories belong to all outsiders, individ
ually and collectively; and popular
sovereignty implies that the people of
the Territories are to be controlled by
the States, through their Representa
tives in tlie aggregate, and by each
State, through its Governor, Legislature,
and Conventions, individually ; and
that this control extends to all future
, time. We had all better attend more
, to the affairs of our own people, and less
jto those of our neighbors. This Kansas
j embroglio don't pay. So says the Aus-
I tin (Texas) Intelligencer.

The. Cheapest Illuminating Gas ever Discmeral.
HAVING purchased tbe Patent-right I
for the State of Georgia, and Edgefield Pis- j
tnct, S. C., for making Illuminating
GAS FROM WOOD AND WATER, j
by Choate & Tyler’s process, we are prepared to '■
sell individual or public rights for the use of 1
said Patent.
Among the many advantages these works have !
over all others, are the following ; |;
Ist. The abundance and cheapness of the ma
terial from which the Gas is made, viz : i
PINE WOOD AND WATER.
2d. The durability of the works when com- ’
pared with others.
3d. Thosimplicity of the apparatus and process
Any negro may be taught to make the Gas '
perfectly in a very short time.
Gas manufactured under this patent has been j
in uninterrupted use at Kirkpatrick Leitner’s j'
at Berzelia, on the Georgia Railroad, since I
July last, where it may bo seen. They have a 1
very superior light for one fourth tiik price of 1 '
Gas made from Rosin Oil.
Any communications addressed to either of the j
undersigned, at Augusta, will meet with prompt I
attention. j.
