Visitors to our City.
Our city presents a very lively ap
pearance. The trains on yesterday and
to-day, brought down large delegations
from the up country, composed of stock
holders and their families, and many
fine looking young men, supposed to lie
in the wild hunt after families. We
wish them all a pleasant and successful
sojourn among us. Our citizens and
city belles arc always glad to see their
country cousins, and will, we know,
show them around gallantly.
Wo learn that there will he a hop at
tl: • Plan ter-; Hotel on Wednesday night,
of which the said young men, on the
wild hunt, will make a note, and gov
ern themselves accordingly.
Young Mo*’* Bible Class.
A Bible Class, for young men, was or
ganized last night, at the Young Men’s

of the Association.

Railroad Convention*
This body convened to-day, at 11
o’clock in the Masonic Hall, lion. John
P. King, President, Dr. J. Milligan,
Cashier Georgia Railroad and Banking
Company, and Mr. M. Boiscl.uk, Book
Keeper, in the stand, lhc Convention
was called to order by John P. King,
when Mr. Boisclair called the roll ot
stockholders.
The Committee on Proxies were ap
pointed .vhen the Convention adjourned
till 3 o’clock, P. M.
The number of stockholders present
was about seventy.
Richmond Superior Court.
Yesterday was consumed in the trial
of the case of the State vs. H. Roe,
charged with the offence of assault with
intent to murder. The Jury returned
the following verdict at a late hour:
■ •We, the Jury, find the defendant
guilty of stabbing, hut recommend him
to the ligiitest punishment the Court
tan consistentlv impose,."
Ikerosene Oil.
The attention of the reader is direc
ted to the advertisement of Mr. Robert,
agent for the sale of Kerosene Oil. It
is proper to say that the oil sold by him
differs materally from that which oc
casioned the sad accident on .Saturday.
His off will not ignite—the other will,
as we have tested. Whethsr the same
danger exists from the gas of each, we
cannot say.—lt is well known that the
gas used by all gas companies, will ex
plode if brought in contact with fire in
, a room where it has been allowed to
escape.
The Kerosene is unquestionably a
cheap light, and we refer those who
wish to satisfy themselves of its explo
sive qualities to Mr. Robert. We do
not wish to advise anybody in the mat
er.

A Camp Incident.
Mr. Editor: While you are giving to
the public many of tire little incidents
which occurred during the late “En
eampment” of the Volunteer Corps
upon the Sand Hills, I will obtrude my
self upon you by giving one, which oc
casioned some little merriment among
those who participated in it.
A few moments of ten, the attack was
made upon the Camp by the Montgome
, ry Guards and Irish Volunteers, k Lieu
tenant, who had the post of “Officer of
the Guard,” had his force, (consisting
of about twenty men), drawn up in or
der to repel any attack that might be
made upon the Eastern line, (that por
tion of Camp having been assigned to
his protective care.) Every one was on
the alert. The attention of the Lieu
tenant was called to some one approach-
ing the line in a stealthy manner. At |
this moment one of the Artillery’s pie- j
ces boomed forth the alarm, the signal!,
that the camp was assailed. The com-;!
* 'V
rnaml was given to advance toward the ,
supposed enemy, and when, within pro
per distance, drawn up in a line of
battle—the enemy weic challenged—no
response being given, the order to charge i
was given, and right gallantly did the
“faithful few” perform their duty.—
The charge was made and the fee
was conquered. But oh! to our sur
prise and regret, instead of finding the
enemy—wo found ourselves in posses
sion of two badly frightened negroes.
We, however, carried out our instruc
tions, and placed our prisoners in con
finement until the enemy were in our
possession—when we again gave them
their liberty. D.
The Burial of David Davidson,
We cheerfully give place to the fol
lowing communication from an Israelite
in this city in reference to the burial
of this unfortunate man, who shot him
-1 self last week. At the same time we
would remark, that it was far from our
1 purpose to misrepresent the course pur
' sued toward Mr. Davidson, as the ex
pression “refused to bury him,” was
designed to refer to the usual burial
’ service, and not to the mere act of bu
rying:
i Mr. Editor: —Your issue of the 7th
■ inst., contains an editorial headed “The
Suicide of Yesterday,” which, without
1 qualification, must create an erroneous
impression in the community, preju
dicial to the Israelites of Augusta.—
’ You state—“ln accordance with their
■ usage the Israelites of the city refused
1 to bury him.” This is an error. The
Israelites have no such usage, they did
’ not refuse to bury, nor did they refuse
' to pay the burial expenses ; they simply
declined to read the burial service, the
1 tenets of their religion (as those of
’ many Christian denominations) denying
those rites, to one who commits “self
slaughter."
The Israelites of the city appropria
-1 ted a spot, in that portion of the ceme
s tary allotted to them, for the burial of
‘ the person alluded to, and in which he
’ was accordingly interred; this fact, of
c j itself, is sufficient to controvert the
j! assertion made in your editorial.

The weather during Saturday night

JfT Dr. Sanford’s lnvigora
v tor.—The n ost skeptical people can be con
r vinced by trial that all the family medicines are
not humbug, and that among the thousand of
butter-fly life there arc a few of great merit and
, undoubted worth. Os these, Dr. SANFORD’S
' IN VIGOR ATOR or LIVER REMEDY stands first
and foremost among the remedies of the day
that can be relied on as a medicine that is all it
c is recommended by its proprietors. It adver
’ tises itself on every trial, for there are none who
0 use it i-ut toll their friends to do so, and so it
goes from mouth to mouth till all the people of
l ' the Union have learned the good of this truly
valuable medicine. It is recommended with tes
*' timonials to prove its virtue for thecure of liver
J : complaints of every kind, from Ihe worst Dys
pepsia to a common Headache, and is particular
!l ly adapted to Jaundice, Deranged Stomach, Bow
el Complaints, arid Diseases of Children.
One or two doses are said to cure a cold with
scarce a failure. It is worth a trial for this
alone. It i-j particularly adapted to the use of
1 ladies of sedentary habits. Some ladies of the
highest standing in society luve given their cer
tificates of its efficacy, and we say to all who are
ailing, try one bottle, and you will never be
with leld Jt* - m
Ur. Sanford’s Liver In
: vlgorator is the name of a medicine iuvalu
o able to invalids or those troubled with Liver
D. Complaint, Jaundice or General Debility, with
derangement of the system or loss of appetite.
s - It has one peculiarity, not common to most
medicines, that is, the Doctor only recommends
7; it for the cure of Liver Complaint, or such dis
eases as arise from a disordered Liver, and how
r ‘. well it bears the recommendations given is
[>- known to all who use it. We never have known
a medicine of any kind to perform such a :<;iis!i
- h. ing cures as has been by the IXVIGORATOR. It
ir stems to strengthen and invigorate the whole
• body, increasing the vital energy, and giving a
. flow of health to many whose ills were con.-:d
ered incurable. Wo can recommend it know
ingly as a family medicine, for it has been our
rr> best friend in many an hour of sickness. We
[wish all to try this remedy and s tlsfy them
selves York Gazelle. _
