LOCAL MATTERS.
Pastoral.
We are pleased to learn that Rev.
Dr. Wilson, pastor of the Presbyterian
Church, is expected home this week, i
when he will resume his pastoral duties.
Removals. —Kinchley & Sanches have
removed to the late 6tand of T. W.
Fleming & Co., on Reynold street,
opposite Dye & Richard's Warehouse.
Howard Association— Charleston.
Among the contributions noticed in
the Charleston papers of Monday, we
see announced “nine packages of cloth
ing, sent by the citizens of Augusta,
Ga., and delivered by Adams Express
Company free of charge.” This is
praiseworthy on the part of the donors,
and highly commendable in Adams Ex
press Company, who are always, and at
any moment willing to hear their
share, where suffering requires their
services. At the same time, it does not
speak well of our citizens or city We
have been so far free from all disease,
and there stands our sister city, Charles
ton, laboring under one of the most
severe and violent attacks of Yellow
Fever, 6he has ever experienced—spar
ing neither the native nor the stranger
in its ravages, and what has Augusta
done in the way of assistance? sent a
few pacages of clothing, bestowed by
charitable and philanthropic hearts—
perhaps some of them the widow's,
mite. Has the city done anything ?
Have our citizens made a move in this
direction? If their feelings can be
touched in prosperous times, we take l
the liberty of calling their attention to
what Columbia has done, and done
promptly. It is a city not half the
size of Augusta, but see what she has
done. We take the following from the
Columbia papers of Saturday last:
The workmen in Messrs. Alexander J
Jt Co's. Foundry also deserve the right
eous meed of “ well done ’’ All honor!
to these sons of industry—their hearts
are never closed to the appeals of suffer-!
ing humanity.
The contributions made here are us
follows :
From the City Council : : : : SIOOO,OO
“ Ward No 1, (including
$44 from Mr. Alexan
der’s Foundry) :: : : 216,58
“ Ward No. 2 :::::: : 272,00
“ The officers and work
men on the new Stale
Capital ::::::: : 690,50
“ Ward No. 3 ::::::: 264,00
$2442,08
Since writing the above we are pleased
to learn that the Young Men’s Christian
Association had this matter under con
sideration at their meeting last night,
and we believe steps were taken fur a
committee to confer with the city au
thorities for the purpose of immediate
action.

Dawson & Skinner. —These gentle
men, it will be seen by their advertise
ment, keep on hand a large and well as
sorted stock of Goods in the Groceiy line.
But this is not all, their articles are of
the best quality, and as a Family Gro
cery it is well patronized by our citizens.
We would advise planters and others in
need of anything in their line, to send
their orders to them direct —they will be
promptly, carefully and faithfully filled.
R. H. May.—Those in want of Car
riages, Barouches, Buggys, Carryalls,
&c., would do well to give this gentle
man a call at his old stand corner of
Jackson and Ellis streets. He has been ;
long engaged in iiis line of business in j
this city, and keeps always on hand a I
good assortment, and manufactures to
order, at short notice. Our planters;
and others will lose nothing by giving
a look over his present fall stock.
W. H. Byrd.— It will be seen that
this gentleinun has now on hand a large
lot of Seasoned Lumber, of all descrip
tions. Those in want of the article will
find him at the Georgia Depot.
John Cashin.—This gentleman ad
vertises for sale a lot of Choice West
India Molasses, on consignment.
The Comet.
Our citizens had. last evening, a fine
view of the Comet. When first seen,
there were a few fleeting clouds, and but
a small portion of the tail could bo seen,
but soon after the clouds dispersed and
apparently, to the naked eye, about for
ty yards were visible. As we have every
indication for another fair evening,
those wishing to take a view will no
doubt be gratified by casting their eyes
upwards in a westerly direction, be
tween seven and eight o’clock.
Tike Wentlier,
We are at the present writing in the
enjoyment of cool, bracing, delightful
weather. The walk of our citizens is
quickened, and everything wears the
appearance of approaching winter.—
The Health of the city never was bet

chants are busy receiving and disposing
of their goods, and go in what direction
you please, you will hear the sound of
the Masons Trowel or the Carpenters
Hammer. Our citizens wear pleasant
countenances, and so far, everything
looks and promises well for the futuie.

Labor the Coiulltlo:> of Success.
The fiat of God, “dust thou art and
t to dust shalt thou return,” enunciates a
, law of man's being no more inexorable
than that which prescribes the means
! both of his existence and of his eleva
. tion. ‘ ‘Thou shalt eat bread in the sweat
, of thy face.” It was an era in the
history of the race, sadly eventful and
. deeply significant, when man, accursed
t of his Maker, went foith from the
t spontaneous abundance of Eden to gain
his bread and retrieve his fortune, with
the issues of his destiny in his own
hands. It involved a double penalty—
exclusion from the tree of knouledge as
well as the tree of life—a doom of ig
* norance as well as of death. It taught a
two fold lesson ; that privilege is often
the means of man's undoing, and that
labor is the condition of regaining the
forfeited Paradise; the price, not of
: bread only, but of virtue and of knowl
’ edge. Though primitive in its origin,
' forming as it does, apart of the penalty
I of transgression, labor was imposed upon
! man for his good, as the only means of
i reinstating him ; and hereby becomes
|an important part also of the remedial
’ J dispensation ; distinguishing the condi
tion of man from that of a higher order
i of beings who, though fallen like him,
have never been subjected to redeeming
' and purifying toil. It shows how
I “ mercy seasons justice” in the divine
j administration, and stands as a living
1 verification of the Scripture assertion:
| “ God scourgeth every son whom he re-
J ceiveth.”
)r It does not require the light of reve
' ] lation, however, to reveal the existence
’j of this stern yet merciful law. Long
' since it found its way into the writings
1 of heathen sages. “The gods,” say
' they, “have ordained sweat of virtue,”
, leaving little room for the favoritism to
i the poets ascribed to nature in the old
-j adage: l’oda neuelur, non fit. Thiscon
. diiion of human probation is of univer
sal application, and is eminently true of
nations as well as of individuals. God
and nature alike “are no respectei sos
persons. “There is no royal road to
geometry,” neither does fate interpose
between any aspiring soul and the goal
of distinction, or the temple of fame an
impassable gulf or an insuperable bar-
rier. In the great drama of life, whe
' thcr kings or subjects, natives or indi
• viduals are the players, all alike are in
i vited to enter the lists, and without
I risk of failure, may stake their fortune
; upon the issue of the contest. This is
especially true in regard to the aspirant
foi literary fame. The tree of knowl
edge is no longer interdicted to man.
No longer stand the cherubim
To guard the tree of life ;
- No tinning swords prohibits him,
Who would assay the strife,
t I
' The tree of knowledge stands revealed,
i' Arrayed in fadeless Rowers
The fatal edict is repealed,
Go, tread the sacred bowers.
I With freedom pluck celestial fruit,
‘; 'lint Adam might rot eat:
The right to pluck, nuue dure dispute,
' Redumption is cuuiplotu.
Nor is this true of him alone who
1 would intwine a wreath of literary
! laurels. In ail the pursuits of life, in
- art or science, politics or religiou, the
1 cabinet or the field— opening to hu
man aspiration an avenue to honor or
distinction —everywhere upon the arena
. of life, man, individually or collective
ly, is the artificer of his own fortune.
All substantially encounter the same
obstacles and receive the same encour
agement. Upon his pathway shines no
‘ star of changless benignty, flushes no
i meteor of malignant fate. In the
t light of history streaming down the
, vistal futurity, man may cast his horo-
I scope successfully and enter a confident
. voyage upon life’s turbulent waters.
, | Tiue, circumstances may exert a potent
i influence in awakening the dormant
' j faculties—in checking or accelerating
'! their development. Dame Fortune
s may seem capricious, distributing her
' i gifts with great partiality ; hut she is
easily woed and won by heroic endur
i anee, invincible courage and unconquer
j able will, and he who these
e j elements of character, may not only
II smile at her caprices, but challenge her
s frowns, regarding the sterner aspects of
b | life as unpleasant yet necessary auxili
_ i aries of success. So true is it, that ad
,! versity does not prove a successful ob
! stacle in the road to distinction, wealth,
or the accomplishment of any great
purpose, that we may well deem it the
essential condition of attaining them.
‘ We are apt to contemplate men only
! in their greatness, as if it were the gift
t of nature or the boon of Providence,
; and to forget the means by which they
were elevated to distinction.
The eloquence of Demosthenese, so
much admired in its latest finish, was
• neither native or spontaneous in him,
' but attained only by years of self im
i posed privation and toil. Hissed from
the Bema, and slung with the mortifi
cation of defeat, he retires to a solitary
! cave ; there for seven long years, a vol
untary recluse, he wages war with na
tine and submits his generous soul to
the sweetest discipline. He then comes
i forth a victor over nature, armed with
i that power of persuasion and mastery
of passion, by which he rouses his slum
bering, infatuated countrymen to manly
resistance to the encroachments of ty
■ | runny, till the tierce democracy of Ath
i: ens exclaim with one voice :
I I ‘Lend us to Phillip’s lord,
Let us conquer him or die.”
i Trained in the school of early hard
ship and suffering, Napoleon acquired
that energy and decision which alone
could prepare him for those stirring
. eventful scenesin which he subsequent
, ly played so important a part, and
, which enabled him, scorning the oppo
sition that vanquishes less hardy spir
jits, amid “Alpine snows and Arabian
jsands,’’ the smiles of friends or the
J machinations of enemies, to drive suc
cessfully to the goal of iiis ambition
tile throne of France and of the Caisars.
We need not multiply emamples; tho’
I to quote all the names that have risen
1 to eminence from the humble walks of
’ life against the-severest opposition,

Shingle Machine,
Now on exhibition at WM. 11. GOODRICH'S CARPENTER SHOP, Rei/nolds-street,
Augusta, Ga., where it can be seen in operation, from the hours of 8 A. M.
to 1 P. M, and from 2 to 6 P. M.
THE principle embraced in this Machine corresponds exactly with the old and
well known process of splitting and dressing by hand labor, working directly with the grain
in the timber. It produces an article not liable to warp or check from exposure. This Machine
was patented January sth, 1856. and has already obtained a celebrity possessed by none other. ’
The whole Machine can be built for one-third the cost of at y other, and will rive and shave from
the bolt from 8,000 to 15,000 Shingles per day. For this purpose it only requires a iwo-Horse
I'ower to work it; at the same time you can make any required length, and it is adjustable to "
any required thickness or taper ; it is simple, cheap and durable, any ordinary mechanic can
make it, and a boy may work it.
To Shingle Healers, Lumbermen. Capitalists and Speculators, this Machine is a safe, sure and
profitable investment. We invite all to call and see it in operation. Any further information can
be had by calling on the Patentee or his Agents, one of whom will always be found with the Ma
chine, or at the Giobo Hotel.

Augusta, September 8, 1858.
Mr. S. M. King —lu compliance with your re
quest, I take pleasure in reporting my experience
in the use of one of your Shingle Machines. My
machine is located about seventeen miles below
Augusta, near the Augusta and Savannah Rail
Road ; the material used is cypress ; power, a
small portable engine, on wheels, which can be
conveniently moved from place to place by a
pair of mules or horses. The machine works
admirably, fully up to all you claimed for it, and
far beyond my expectation. This machine is op
erated by one white man, (having no experience
in the use of machinery) and common planta
tion negroes, it turns out from 7,000 to 1*2,000
Sh ngles per day (often workinghours) depend
ing entirely upon the supply.ng of wood to the
machine. Your ob’t serv’t,
L. HOPKINS.

Mr. S. M. K’xc— Dear Sir : Your Patent Shin
gle Machine has been in operation at my shop
. for two months, and I have watched it closely.
To make Shingles, it far surpasses any machine
I have seen It does its work well, and can, in
my opinion, be made to turn out from ten to fif
teen thousand per day. Its simplicity and its
durability I do not think can bo excelled.

no other at any price, if I could get the one above
alluded to. This machine can easily be attached

MR. & MRS. D. F. GRIFFIN tender
their thanks to the patrons of the Augus

age bestowed upon it for the past four years, and
they hope by a strict personal attention to their
duties as teachers, to merit a continuance of the
same.
At the urgent solicitation of many of tlieir
patrons and friends, they have been induced to
change their institution from a mixed to a fe
ma’e school exclusively.
Having been engaged in the business of teach
ing for the last fourteen years, ten of which have
i been spent in Augusta audit 3 vicinity, they flat
J ter themselves that, by experience and energy,
| they will be able to make this a school of the
first order.
No labor or expense will be spared in giving
, their pupils as good, thorough, and practical an
, education as cun be acquired iu the best female i
, seminaries.
The Course of Studies embraces all the branch- ‘
es required in a complete English education .and
a thorough preparation for any class in College.
Prof. F. B. MARCHY will take charge of the
classes in the French and Italian Languages.
The school rooms are large, convenient, and
easy of access.
This institution is furnished with a very com
plete set of Geographical aud Astronomical Maps,
Charts, Globes, kc. Also, Chemical and Philo
sophical Apparatus fully sufficient to illustrate
those studies.

Mr. James L. Coleman— Dear Sir : I have seen
the Shingle Machine of Mr.S. M. King in opera
tion, and from what I saw of its performance, I 1
can safely say that it is the best Shingle Machine ,
r ever saw, doing its work in the best possible
manner, and being the simplest machine of die
kind in use. I think it peculiarly adapted to the
successful manufacture of shingles or heading in 1
the Southern States, where negroes are the most *
available operitors ; aud if properly attended, I 1
believe it will cut 12 000 Shingles per day.

of the many kinds of Shingle Machines I have \
