Slate of the Cliurrhrs In Augusta.
During the last few moViths we have
made frequent allusion to the religious
mectiugs in the city, and noted largo
accessions to the churches. While the
iate revival has perhaps created less ex
citement and been less extensive than in
many cities, there is reason to believe
that a very deep and very general inte
rest lias pervaded our community, and
it gives us much pleasure to present the
following statement, showing the con
dition and progress of the different
churches, which we have obtained from
reliable sources.
Baptist Church.—Rev. J. E. Ryehson,
Pastor. The number of accessions since
January 1, 1858, is 71, of which 44 were

which all save two or three reported in
the St, James chffrch, have been added
since January 1,1858. The total num
ber of communicants is 1,032.
Wc shall at all times be very thank
fulfor imformation in any way relating
to the interests or progress of the
churches of this city.
Presbyterian Church.
The regular services in the Presbyte
rian Church are four for every week.

o’clock, A. M., and at 5, P. SI. The
other two on Wednesday and Saturday
afternoons, at 5, I’. M.
There is, also, connected with this
church, a city mission, for the benefit
of the population remote from thu
principal place of worship, for the
blacks, tic. The present missionary is

Axson, of Savannah.

Aiiguslu Suhhath Schools.
We some time since proposed to get
some information in reference to the
city Sabbath Schools. The Superinten
dents, or those having any information
to give us in reference to the size and
condition of the Schools, with the num
ber of teachers, will confer a favor by
handing it in.
Service at the Churches.
We present in another place the regu
lar service in the Presbyterian church.
We would like to publish similar notice
of the services in all the city churches,
witli any other information in reference
to them that they will furnish. It is
our desire to give the D'uqHitch as much
local as well as general interest as possi
ble. It would be very little trouble for
the proper person, connected with each
of the churches, to give us a statement
of the Sabbath Service for our paper
every Saturday morning. For our re
porters to collect it would involve con
siderable trouble. .
The Rev. S. E. Axson, (Presbyte
rian City Missionary of Augusta) will
preach to-morrow morning, at 101-2
o’clock in Hamburg, in the church
building formerly occupied by Rev. R.
C. Ketcham.
The Weather.
For the past three or four days we
have been favored witli genial showers,
which must prove very beneficial to
gardens and crops. The weather has
been more like April, than that usually
experienced in June.
Gm u Corn.
The Editor had green corn on his ta
ble for dinner'onThursday, from a plant
ing, after the severe frosts of April, in
his own garden. We are a little ahead
of our neighbors, so far as we have yet
discovered If any heat if. let them
send on their nubbins. --Georgia Citizen ,

. BEL CLINTON:
OR,
THE PRETTY BRUNETTE.
The village clock had struck five in
the afternoon as a young girl walked
out of a neat cottage in the village of
I Ihe jessamine and houey-suckle cluster
ed around the piazza—the air was laiden
I witli the perfume of flowers. It was
i the spring time, and all was fresh and
s green.
’ The young girl that was walking in
the garden was Bel Clinton, the beauty
of the village. Her long black hair
. h,ln S in clustering curls around her
j neck the rose in all its beauty was
3 seen in her cheeks.
3 She was dressed for a walk, and would
_ go to the gate, and look anxiously up
i the street, as if expecting some one to
- c °me and accompany her; becoming ira
. patient, she walked up the street, and
1 meeting a young lady, she said, I have
B been waiting this hour for you.
“My dear liei, I am very sorry that I
t kept you waiting, but I met our friend
i i’bil, and made him promise to meet us
on the common.”
, As she spoke these words, you
- could see that she was very much
3 pleased that she could tell she had
1 seen the handsome Phil Walkor, and
Bel had not. Bel appeared not to no
i ticeit, but she saw that smile of tri-j
• umph, as it flitted across her friend’s
i face. She had for some time noticed a
f change in her friend, and thought she
- would ask her why it was, but just as
she made up her mind to ask her, they
. turned a corner, and met Phil Walker.!
, He was the handsomest young man in
; the village, and one of the most taien
: ted lawyers at the bar.
Hewallkod up by the side of Bel.—j
Annie Davis was very much surprised
- and hurt to see his attentions to Bel.—j
I 'lliey walked on some distance in si
lence, each one apparently absorbed in 1
. their own thoughts. Annie became j
- very much fatigued, and seated herself
i on one of the benches on the common.
i She expected Phil and Bel to seat them-}
F selves; hut he asked Bel to walk around j
with him, as he had something to tell j
• her. He asked Bel if she had heard
! that he expected to go to the city to
i live. She told him she had not; he
said, “Bel, I wish you would answer)
that question I asked you last night.”
“Phil, 1 will the day you leave ; when!
t do you expect to leave?"
“In about a week.”
“What is the cause of your leaving us
: so suddenly ? ”
“I have been thinking about it for
5 the last three months,—a young man
f cannot live in such a retired place as
1 this, and enjoy life.”
“Phil you know your mother never
would consent to your going to the
city.”
“I have her consent; do you think!
that mother is all that binds me to
this place?"
“No, its being the home of your boy
hood.”
“No, Bel, that is not it, you cau
guess if you would."
“Oh, Phil! Annie will think we have
run away, let’s join her and go home.”
“Bel, will you not tell me the time
■ until the day I leave.”
“No, that is time enough ; you are
i too impatient; you should be more pa
tient when you expect to hear such
1 good news.”
By this time they had come up to
where Annie wassitting. She was in bet
ter spirits than they left her. Nothing
' of importance occurred on their walkj
home. Phil and Bel walked home with
Annie—her home was the home of the
wealthy; it was a large brick building,
furnished in the handsomest style. As
Phil and Bel turned away, they heard
a sigh, and on looking back, saw Annie
sitting on the marble steps, with her
face bowed down. When she saw she
was seen, she waved her handkerchief)
to them to make them think she was in
high spirits.
, I “Phil, have you noticed what a
j change there is in Annie of late,” asked 1
'I Bel.
| “Yes, hut I cannot imagine the cause; I
she is such a great friend of yours I
think you ought to know.”
; 111 think, Phil, you are the cause;
ever since she was introduced, she has
| been low spirited. She was speaking!
of giving me a birth day party ; she said
| you should not be there. I do not know
| what to do to make her change her
jmind.”
! “You must not say a word, I will call
,! on her to-night, and she will think if
! she invites me I will make love to her.;
1 1 will succeed. ”
By this time they had arrived at Bel’s
residence, and, bidding her good-night,
jhe walked briskly up the street, whis- j
ding the tune of “Gentle Annie.”
, | That evening, Annie sat at her room i
, ! window in a very ill humor. Tea was j
■ over, and all the family were sitting in \
| the back parlor, except Annie; she ex
cused herself under pretence of having '
a headache. She was walking the floor,
! in deep thought, when she stopped be- j
i fore the large mirror; it reflected back
I a handsomely dressed lady, not beauti
i fill, out good looking. Annie was vain,
, and thought herself beautiful. She
gazed into the glass for some time, then;
she said to herself, “I cannot see what
there is about Bel that he admires so
much ; that swarthy complexion, and
my clear rosy face, always wreathed in
smiles—that sad and downcast look,
and my brlghtand laughing blue eyes.”
. Something whispered in her ear—“ Bel
has a most lovely disposition “so
have I, ” thought she. “Bel is poor and
I am rich ; I mud and toil! win his affec
tions.” Vain girl, already is his heart
another's, and never will it change.
“I know he is at Bel’s; I will dress
myself iu that blue silk he admires so
much, and walkover there;” and calling
to her maid, she bid her bring it out, as
it was his favorite color.
“ Miss Annie, do you expect to see
Mr. Walker? if you do, you had better
wear that white diess and your pearls.
, I heard him tell Miss Bel to always wear
, white.”
“Well I will wear the white. Oh!;
[ Mary, do hurry, I will be too late, and;
. don’t pull my hair so.”
“Now, Miss Annie, just look into the
glass, you look beautiful.”
Annie looked into the glass,, and 1
thought she was beautiful.
“No, Mary, I will only wear this
white rose in my hair, and my pearls.;
Mary do you think that I look better
than Bel ?”
“Miss Annie, you are better looking
any day than Miss Bel. I heard up
J town, to-day, that Mr. Walker had said
you were beautiful.”
“Who is that ringing the bell ? run
down, Mary, and tell them I am out.”
“ Yes, Madam.”
“ Who can it be ? it U a gentleman’s
walk ; stupid tiling, she has asked him
in the parlor ; perhaps it is some one.to
! see Pa.”
“ Oh ! Miss Annie, it is Mr. Walker.”
“Mr. Walker! he has not been here
before in two months; lie cannot love
Bel or he would hot have come here to
I night, he would have gone there, as he
| only stays in the village a week. He
i shall he here at the party.”
j Annie ran down the stairs ; she could
! not believe it was him, but, on entering
| the parlor, she saw him looking at a
] book of poetry.
j “Phil, what was that you were look
ing at when I came in ?”
“Only a piece of poetery.”
“You must be iu love, if you read
j poetry.”
“Earnestly speaking, Miss Annie, I
i am in love.”
“ Who would believe it, that Mr.
Phil Walker is in love ; who is the ob
ject of your affections?”
“Miss Annie that is not a fair ques
tion.”
She expecled him all the evening to
tell her who he was in love with
“Miss Annie do sing me a song; sing
Gentle Annie.”
She immediately complied with his
request, thinking music might have an
effect on him and prompt him to tell
her who he loved; but music had no
such an effect upon Phil Walker, he
praised her singing and left her more in
love than ever.
After leaving Annie, he called on Bel
to tell her of his success.
“Phil, whenever I wish to gain any
thing, I will employ you.”
“ She really thinks that I love her ;
she spoke of you in not very favorable
terms; she is afraid that I will like
you better than herself; she has no idea
that it is all settled."
When she finds it out, she will he so
disappointed; I feel sorry forher, but I
cannot make you love her. You would
not if you could, would you?
No, but I never tried to win your as-;
feetion.
I can say that much for you Bel, but
I cannot f r Miss Annie.
Hush, Phil, you are vain; Annie’s on
ly faith is that she loves you.
Bel went to the Hail door with him,
and kissing a good-night, he hastened
up the street and Bel up to her room
to think over all he had said to her.
j She took his minature off her neck to
j gaize into those dark, and loving eyes.
| She wept to think how happy she
| was in his love, and how many a girl’s
heart was sad because he love them not.
i They had loved when children.
Annie's slumbers were more quiet
than they had been for many nights, a
smile would flit across her face as she
j dreamed that Phil knelt at her feet.—
j She awoke next morning pleased even
;to think it was a dream. She hastily
j dressed and hurried to Bel’s, to tell her
the news. Isel did not tell her that he
1 called there after leaving her, she only
said I think he must be in love with
you. Annie was pleased to hear Bel
j say tills, she felt confident that if he
| loved Bel he had not told her of it.
Bel, we must begin to think about
that party ; what day is this, 7th day
) of June, the 15th is your birth day and
the 18tli is mine, is it not ?
“ Yes, what day shall it be on, yours
; or mine.”
| “ Yours of course, as I promised to
j give it to you, and yours comes first.
; Shall it he a large or small company ?”
“ Ju st as you please, Annie, hut I
think as you have so many acquaint
ances, you hail better invite them ali.”
“ If you leave it to me I will have a
large party and among the invited shall
: be Phil ”
“ I suppose you have changed your
j mind since yesterday.”
Yes, I think Phil is in love with
me ; I had better ask him.”
‘Good-by, I must go home, mother
will think I have ran away ; I have not
seen her this morning, and she must
know our arrangements.”
° 0 c o * o e
The 15th day is at hand, and before
the sun had gilded the forest with his
first rays, all was bustle and confusion
at the luansiou of Mr. Davis for the
evening. Cakes of every discription
and size were to be seeu put out to dry
the icing or decorate them for the even
ing. And where was Annie ; in her
room admiring, prehaps, for the fiftieth
time, her dress, and contemplating the
conquest of Phil, so deeply was she en
gaged in thought that she did not hear
his familiar foot-steps as he passed on
his way to Bel’s.
j No ear heard the afliectionate words
j that passed between this loving couple,
j He had come to tell her he would leave
! the village the next morning at five
o'clock, and did not expect he could at
| tend the party. After he left, she ran
up to her room with a heavy heart to
think that she was so soon to part with
1 1 him ; he would write, but that would
j not be like hearing his loved voice, and
how long it would be before she would
see him. She wept until she feel asleep,
and when she awoke she saw that it was
time to dress.
She dressed herself and went down
into the back parlor, where her father
was reading the newspaper. She waited
until she thought her father was through
reading ; she then asked him to walk
over to Annie’s with her. On their
way, her father began to talk of Phil.
He said young Walker had paid a visit
to him yesterday, telling him that lie
expected to leave the village in a short
time as there was an opening in the city
: forayouug lawyer. He is one of the finest
, young men I know,and if you are going
to marry him why is it that you will not
set some time. lam pleased with your
choice, I have seen this ever since you
were children ; now Bel, it is not right
; to treat him so badly ; tell him at once
, the time—and get married ; he has
waited long enough for you.
“ My dear Pa, you are too kind, I
love Phil, dearly, but I cannot leave
you for him.”
“Mychild, you must not think of
me. I can go to the city with you.”
At this stage of the conversation be
tween Father and child they met Phil
coming towards them. As soon as they
had exchanged salutations, the old man
said to Phil.
“ Phil, I give my daughter to you,she
will tell you when it is to be. And
slippling her hand from his arm he
he placed it on Phil’s, and hurried across
the street.”
“ What is the meaning of this, said
the astonished girl."
“ Nothing, only I arranged it with
Uucle, that I should not come in time,
and he could give you a good talk as you
came along about keeping me in sus
pense.”
By this time they had arrived at
Annie’s; the whole house was illumin
ated, only a few had arrived, as it was [
early. But soon the saloons were crow- j
ded with a gay, and brilliant assembly.;
Through this crowd wandered two
young men, arm in arm. The taller
one with brown waving hair, and dark
eyes, rich, young, and handsome, was
William Harvy—he was very wild.—
His companion, two years his junior,
was Phil Walker, a small young man,
with laughing black eyes. # Pausing in
their prominade a short distance from a j
party of young girls, all in animated j
conversation,
‘‘There is Miss Bel, said Harvy, I have
not seen her before since my return. I
must go up and speak to her, but there
is Annie Davis, I cannot go.”
“ Harvy, faint heart never won a fair j
lady—said Phil—come on.”
“Well, I will, she is looking this way, j
she is as beautiful as ever. Phil why is
it that you don’t marry her, I know you
love her, and it is returned. Does the
old mau object ?’’
“ No, Harvy, that is not it, she will}
not have me.”
“ Hush, Phil, all engaged persons are j
priviledged, to tell fibs.”
“Do you know all the girls, if you !
do not, I will introduce you to my in-1
tended, the first one."
By this time they had come up to I
were the girls were sitting.
“ Mr. Harvy, Miss Clinton.”
“ Phil Walker ! I always thought I
you would marry Annie.”
“ No, she is for you.”
Phil offered Bel his arm, and they j
walked awaj. Annie did not care for j
Phil, now she had young Harvy.
Bel and Phil walked into the gar
den to arrange the time, Annie and Har
vy, into the summer house.
“For Heaven’s sake, Annie, said Har
vy, cease this trifling. My happiness
depends upon a word from you; you
have sent me abroad once, but absence
has not conquered my love for you.”
Spell-bound with amazement at the
renewal of the old suit, Annie listened
to the passionate avowal of his love, till
tears of happiness filled her eyes, and i
she wept upon his bosom.
“ Well, Annie, dearest Annie, you'
have not spoken, what is my auswerf”
Raising her face from its resting '
place, she whispered, “I am yours.”
Bel stayed ail night with her, and j
kissing a good night, she said I am so
happy Bell, we will both be married on
the same day, the 7th of July—l heard
you tell Phil so. ”
“ Who are you going to marry An
nie ?”
“ My own dear William, he, and I
settled that old quarrel to-night.”
They fell asleep with their arms
around each other, and dreamed they
were happy in love.
“ o o o o a «
The wedding day is at hand, the glo
rious sun is set in the West, the brides
are at the alter; what a contrast there
is between them. Bel dressed in a plain
travelling dress, Annie’s is a white bro
caded silk with white lace over. The
manly countenance of Phil is Bad. The
face of the reckless young Harvy is
bloated with dissipation.
i The ceremony being over,Bel started
on the cars for the city, and Annie on
> her bridal tour, both happy in their
j choise.
o e a a « <j e
i Twenty-five years after, we find that
> Phil has retired from business, and he
i and Bel live at the old home in atilu
-1 ence—Annie has reformed her husband,
1 and is the pattern of wives. Young
1 Phil Walker, and Bel Harvy, have been
, married two years, and have a lovely
3 little daughter the idol of the Grand
parents. All are happy. Mattie,

Sir : I have used your Pills in my general and
hospital practice ever since you made them, and
cannot hesitate to say they are the host eathar
tic we employ. Their regulating action on the
liver is quick and decided, consequently they are
an admirable remedy for d range < cuts of tin t
organ. Indeed. 1 have seldom fouud a case of
bilious disease so obstinate that it did not readily
yield to them. Fraternally, yours,

commenced hiking your pills, which soon cured
her, by expelling large quantiti s of worms

her and our two chi.drcn of bloody dysentery.

Honored Sir--I should be ungrateful for the
relief your skill has brought me it I did not re
port my case to you. A cold settled in my
limbs and brought on excruciating ueural.de
pains, which ended in chronic rheumatism.
Notwithstanding I bad the best of physician*
the disease grew worse and worse, until, by the
advice of your excellent agent in Baltimore, Dr.
Mackenzie. I tried your pills. Their effects were
slow, but sure. 13y persevering in the use of
them I am now entirely well.

Dor Dropsy, Plethora, or kindred Complaints,
requiring an active purge, they are an excellent
remedy.
For Costiveness or Constipation, and a: - , a Din
ner Pill, they are agreeable and effectual.
Pits, Suppr ssiou, Paralysis. Inflamma! on,
and even Deafness, and Partial Blindness, have
bees cured by the alterative action of the. <> pills.
Most ot the pills in market contain Mercury,
which, although a valuable remedy in skilful
hands, is dangerous in a public pill, from the
dreadful consequen es that frequently follow its
incautious use These contain no mercury or
mineral substance whatever.

We need not speak to the public of its virtues.
Throughout every town, and almost every ham

known. Nay, few are the families in any civ i

personal experience of its effects ; and fewer yet

among them some living trophy of its victory
over the subtle aud dangerous diseases of the
throat and lungs. While it is the most power
ful antidote yet known to man for the formida
ble aud dangerous diseases of the pulmonary 1
organs, it is also the pleasantest and safest rem
edy that can be employed lor infants and young ■
persons. Parents should have it in store against
the insidious enemy that steals upon them un- ■
prepared. We have abundant grounds 10 be
lieve the Cherry Pectoral saves more lives by
the consumptions it prevents than those itcures.
Keep it by you. aud euro your colds whi e they I

know the dreadful fatality of lung disorders, l
