The people of our city are the most patient, submissive and amiable souls in the world, or they would not consent to pay the water tax for the j present irregular and inadequate supply. The water works of the city are at best, * b H t little better than a nuisance. To day we have a pitiful supply, and to- IPmorrow we don’t; and yet we continue to pay hydrant tax, while our servants “tote” water from the street-pumps, or poach on a neighbor's premises for an accasional bucket-full. And yet, say a word about a new system of water works, in a crowd at the street-corner, and these good-natured souls who pay for what they do not get, will inconti nently thrust their hands into their pockets, clinch their purees and walk away, exclaiming—“it will raise our taxes —never ll do.” Now, we think we can safely assert that no city in the country is less bur dened with taxes than Augusta. There are few that are not better suppliedj with water. And yet we have an abun-1 dance running to waste at our very i doors, which, at small expense, could j be made available for use. It is estima- i ted that a reservoir could be erected and j ' mains could be put into the principle streets in the city for about $50,000, which would give us a constant supply j from the Canal. AVill some of our citizens suggest a better plan ? AVe would be pleased to hear from the numerous Council- Committees, who, for eight or ten years, j have been making surveys, and estima-! ting the cost of supplying the city with j water. The city is deeply interested in j this matter. It is believed that the se curity it would afford against the rav , ages of those disastrous fires which \ might always be stopped by our fire- j y. men, if we had a supply of water—and j W against the damage from dust, which is the pest of our merchants as well as of private families, would make it a source of actual gain to the city, not to mention the luxury of being permitted to breathe air unmixed with impalpable dust, and of having our sidewalks and gutters washed sweet and clean every j •day.!

Dedicated to Vigilant Engine and Hose C«ccs6iny Kg. 3. of Avgusta, Ga. f 0. come around, my hearty bucks, We need uo longer play— The order’s come to limber up, But we’ll a moment stay ! Come close around the engine, row. And help lue chorus f-ing. And till the word is take her home,’* Well make the welkin ring. Chorus—For we know no sorrow. We fear no danger ; And while we are together, We’re jolly fellows all! We love to linger round the spot Where we’ve the tire king slain, And see around the bright eyes glance More dazzling than the flame, k We love the smile of thanks they give, That they 're from danger free ; O. what can be more glorious Than the fireman’s victory ! For we knew, kc. Yeu’ve known us long enough to know That we no danger shun— But meet all foes as readily * As butterflies the sun ! Wherever dutv calls us on. In shine, or rain, or snow, You find that we are quickly there, Prepared to meet the foe. For we know, kc. But now the order’s come, my boys, To man the rope all round For all our friends we’ll give three chee * Before we leave the ground ; And for our volunteers we’ll give Three more and a “ tigah 1” Then start up for the engine house, And try a fireman's fare ! For we know, Ac. Polygamy vs. the Book of Mormon. | —The Utah correspondence of the New ! York Times developes some curious facts j in relation to Polygamy among the Mormons. It appears that the Book of 1 Mormon, the standard authority among that people, expressly forbids and de- 1 nounces Polygamy and Concubinage ; I and that in establishing the system of ! many 'wives in his community,; Brig- 1 ham Young has directly contravened an explicit command. A Western editor says : ‘-It is sup- i posed that angels do not wear dresses, i Our fashionable ladies are getting more and more angelic every year.” Sally Spikes’ Present, Ami what Slic* d!<l with It! The ripple that appears on the surface of a small body of water, after a stone has been cast into it does not more cer tainly reach every part of it. than do the fashions which spring up in our commercial centres, extend, by slow de grees, from city to town, from town to village, and from village to hamlet.— The Miss Flora McFlimseys of Fifth Avenue have their admirers and copy ists among the Polly Ann Wigginses and Sally Spikeses of I’iny AVuods ; and if the Miss Flora can boast a precedence, by reason of proximity ta the great centers of modern invention, the Miss Pollysand MissSaliys, have this advan tage : they pay less for their fashions and enjoy much more what they do get. Os all those modern inventions which the Genius of Fashion has conceived to captivate her votaries, none, perhaps, exceeds in breadth of popularity, the Hoop Skirt. Although its advent Amongst us dates hack hut a few months yet to what an extent it has already spread ! AVithered age ; ancient mai denhood ; artless girlhood, aye, and pratting infancy, offer incense on the Altar of Crinoline. The “ young’un ” that sports a hoop of Flour barrel di mensions, and the elegant young Lady who has just finished a course at Mad am Fuliere’s, and wears a skirt that would hive the “Philistine of Gath,” all bow in adoration at the shrine of Crinoline. Color makes no difference ; for Dinah fresh from the Cotton patch, with more self-importance, and extrav agant conceit than belong to her young mistress, sports her unobtrusive but unyielding grape vine. Uncle Billy Spikes, as he was famil iarly called in his Deestrek, came to town a few Saturdays ago, with a load of TFu ttrmillions, a basket of peaches, a bucket of honey, six pounds of bees-wax. and a little of the old ’Oman’s truck. Find ing a ready market for his products, he set out at once, as hesaid, “ter git sum thin nice for his gal. for she and Mose McMillun was agwine tu git married jnexSundy moru’n at the Rocky Spring i cherch. and he lowd, how as Sal was (entituld to er present frum her old Dad sis it want no more an a fine tuthcomb.” | Uncle Billy entered one store and an other until he exhausted his own strength as well as the patience of the merchants. He looked at one thing an another, asked the price of every ar ticle and “ eluded he would’nt trade.” As he was leaving the last store, his jeye caught a glimpse of a “Patent- Extension, with self-adjusting Bustle attached,” swinging near the ceiling. That was something he had’nt seen, so he let off in this style : | “ Now, Squire what du you call that [ar fixin’ up thar, es I must be so quisi | five to ax yerThe merchant, we | suppose, intended to impress the old J man with a sense of its novelty as well ;is its importance, so lie told him it was a Crinoline. Uncle Billy nodded his j head and began to think all to himself. [He “caliated” he had seen the article : used before, and as Mose ajid Sal would | have to ride to the meeting House, he [couldn’t see any better way to spend i his money, and concluded to buy “ one on ’em, at four dollars cash a large ; sum, to be sure, for a poor man to spend on a wedding present, hut lie “lowd Low as Mose wild soon takehis gal off’n his hands, and ’twus but simpul jestis to the poor crittur, enny how.” Uncle Billy paid down the cash for his hoss tackle’ and marched off with it under I his arm, to the wagon. He got home j about sun down ; and asAlose was down in the orchard where Sal was drying i peaches, the old man, together with the j old ’oman and the hoss gear, were soon jin pursuit of the happy couple. Yon jder (Sim’s Dad, said Sal. “Yes, (re ’ turned the old raau) and gess Gal, what I I hort yu. Taint nun of yer thrip kali ! ker, nur homespun nuther.” “My sakes (said Sal) what kin it be—du tell me, Dad, or I’ll git a fit—is it sum gluvs, er Sam smelling water, er sum j stockius, er some gingy cake, er sum what; do tell me, Dad, for I’m er jeeehin all over to see it.’’ The old man slowly hoisted his old blue jeans I coat tail, and produced the present to J the excited and impatient lovers. He [ told them what it was and all about its uses. He said it was a “ Critter line ,” ’ and besides helping the looks of horses in harness, it would “keep off n the flies frum a peckin at ’em.” He told Mose to come round early Sunday mor i ning and hitch Blossom to the “chicken waggin,’ put on the “Critter-line," and drive Sal to church ; while be and the [“old ’on:an wud wtirry along with the little Bull in the Sliingul waggin.” Sunday came, and with it Mose bright and early. AVe will not attempt to de scribe the outfit of our hero and bero rine ae they appeared on the eventful morning, set apart for iheir bridal so [ lemnities ; that would make our story as long f.* Lige Dad’s ball of twine that I his dog swallowed, and Lige trod on some deys after; which (the twine) I “never did kept from a cqmlu’: an not i withstaudin’ the dog run pow’ful fur, ! hilt on ter him.” It is sufficient to say that they were arrayed In the habiliments proper on i such occasions and in such settlements, j When Mose came to put on the Critter \ line , he was puzzled sorely where to be : gin, and where to stop. The old man soon settled the “diffikility" by direct ing Mose to tiethe "little eend” around !the crillur's. neck, as that “wud give the big eend a-diance to flop off n the flies frum its tore back.” This ‘ldiffikilty arranged, the wedding Party set out for the meeting house at P.ocky Springs. It is proper to say that Uncle Billy was a leading man in the ektslreck, nnd had a great many friends. And his j “only darter” was going to be married, iit may he well imagined that a large crowd had assembled at the Church to witness the interesting ceremony. Be fore the cortege reached the Church, il had gathered on its march a great num ber., riders oil horse hack, foot atten dants, and occupaats of little vehicles like the old man’s Bull and Sliingul cart. j Being at a friend's house in the neigh | borhood, we accepted an invitation from [ his accomplished and beautiful daugh j ters to accompany them to the Church, ’and be an eye witness of a genuine j“ Country wedding." Os course our I crowd was among the most eager antic ! ipants of the arrival of the Bridal par ity. Pretty soon after we got down, the j vehicle containing Mose and his intend jed moved slowly out of the woods ami j came directly up to the horse rack,' about ten feet from the platform where we stood with the young ladies. Slow ly, solemnly and with great dignity, Mose told Blossom ter icur ! And Blos som i curd ter onct. Reader did you ever see an old Roostor’s tail just after a drenching rain? You have* Well you know just hew we looked. The I girls at our side looked with downcast | eyes at each other and really seemed to j feel more ludicrous in their position ’ than did Sally behind the new fashion : ed fly not. “Hello thar,” said .Jim Jenkins, “what is that on yer hoss, I I Mose "? “Go ter li—ll, Jim Jenkins, ■sand speck when yer spokin ter," re ■ iplied the unterrified Moses. “Mose. 11 yer ain’t gwine sanein, is yer,” said Bill • | Jones—“takeoff yer hoss kiver, Mose,” i [said Wes Blunt, “fur it mout rain, and jdurnedmi lites, es it dus, es that ar 11 cussed tiring don’t dry up so tite roun : j Blossum’s neck it’l choke the critter to ] death.” These and similar expressions ;! greeted Mose from his intimate asso s dates as lie was “lightin” from the wa - gou. But Mose had’nt time or temper i for a light, so he took Sally by the hand i and led her in the Church. After a while we heard a great noise just out i side of the church as if a team was I moving off rapidly. It increased, and , pretty soon a crowd rushed for the door. > AVhen we got in sight, we could just t see a little bit of Cotton cloth flapping 5 in the breeze, and moving at the rate ’ of ten miles an hour. Nobody knows . how' Blossom “cum to run away, sich a 1 steady hoss as every body knowd him to ■ be.” But certain it was, he had run ■ away, and nobody could tell how it . happened. But AYes Blunt says, “he • heerd Tim Simpson say, lie heered one . of the niggers on Squire Jones’ settle t ment say, he knowd whar tlier wasches : nut burs closter ther cheich, and he f j (Wes) suspecks, hut don’t know, es it ; i ain’t likely that sum of the boys put , j one under Blossuin’s tail while Mose . ! wa3 a gettin’ spliced in the meetin r house.” t Wes further says, he “fouu” some of the “hoss tackil'’ on a crab-apple tree, . about six miles from the cliercli on the i Monday morning after the “scrape,” . and that lie “tuk hit home wid him to t keep fur a reelic of Mose McMullin’s 1 j bridal down at the Rocky Spring Cherch . ihaltur.” Arrivals at Cotoosn Springs—Aug. 17. • : Leroy Napier, Son, Macon.
