I Mess!s. Demlng & Bay Hr,,,,. PLEASE NOT READ THU FOLLOWING. I 1 I We do not much affect dry goods, our j Hnelinations are altogether towards gro- I ■cries. but we have unmistakable signs I [Bhat a very large number of our lady I [Bicquaintances, are to a wonderful ex- ! Bent, dependent for their every day and j [Bo to-meeting pleasures, upon the re- i Bailers of silks, muslins, embroideries, ! ■kc. Fine stores, rich goods, and hand-' clerks, are sources of happiness, : Hjn many an hour, to our fair friends— j Biuite as rational happiness, we admit, as Bmy derived from tobacco and spirits. I Now we imagine we shall place a ■weighty obligation upon the ladies of ■Augusta an< * neighboring country ■for miles around, by informing them ■that they can find the aforementioned Btore, goods, and clerks, in all perfec ■tion at 254 Broad street, corner under ■the Globe Hotel. [ There Messrs. L. C. Deming and C. P. ■Day, have exhibited the taste, for which ■both have acquired an enviable reputa tion, in fitting up an establishment, ■which for neatness and order, is unsur ■passed in this or any other city. No ■unsightly boxes and ill arranged shelves ■offend the eye, while a very exten- Hsive and well assorted stock of the best ■fabrics, and latest fashions, at hand and ■arriving, invites the immediate atten tion of shoppers. We say it upon the ■authority of a lady, in whom wc have ■ the greatest confidence that the quality ■ and prices of their goods cannot fail to ■ please, while attentive salesmen in the ■ persons of Messrs. Whiting, Hazkltine ■ and Wetiiebsbee, are more than willing ■to exhibit their wares to all who will ■ favor them with a call. — Prepare lo Pin ker. We observed a crowd gathered near ■ the Post Office corner, and upon ap- I pro,idling it, we discovered its origin to ■be a stump orator selling tin whistles. — I Whistles appeared to be iu active de I mand from the rapid manner in which ■ he disposed of them at twenty cents ■ each. We suppose each purchaser pro ■ ceeded straightway to ‘‘ted his whistle.” I We trust that this mania for whistling ■ may have no effect in the disruption of I marital ties, as it did with the hoosier’s ■ wife iu Indiana. We mentioned the arrest yesterday of I some negroes caught gambling. The I vice is quite common among us, and is I a favorite way of spending the Sabbath I with darkeys and others. We are as ■ sured that if the police will take a re ■ eonnoisance in the purlieus of the city, I some quiet Sunday morning, they can I bag considerable game of that sort. If ■ the authorities on the other side of the I river feel inclined for sport, they can ■ not go amiss. The sacred soil of Caro ■ olina is constantly desecrated by idol ■ ators worshipping the Goddess es chance. Revolutionary Relics in German ■ town.—The Germantown (Pa.) Tele- I graph says : ‘‘An old wall in front of the Menon- I ist Church, on Main street, was torn I down sometime ago, to make room for I an iron railing. It was in a little offset I in this wall that a mar, named Hans P. I Royer took his position on the day of I the battle of Germantown, watching I for an opportunity to fire at the British. I It so happened that General Agnew I shortly came riding up the street, upon I a sprightly horse, at the head of a body I of soldiers. When arrived within fifty I yardsof the wall, Hans took deliberate I aim at the bright star fupon his breast I and fired. The General fell off his horse I mortally wounded, and a company of I rifienier.frushing up to the wall.discharg | ed a volley at the retreating Hans, but he escaped unscathed, although he had only runabout a hundred (yards when fired upon, and the bullets whistled by him thick and fast. General Agnew who was respected for his kindness and gentlemanly conduct, died in a few hours after receiving the fatal wound. Royer, who was notan enlisted sol diet died about the year 1-327, iu our poor house. “ The remains of Gen. Agnew lie in the lower oemetery. Some years ago a carriage drove up to the residence of one of our most prominent citizens, aud in quiry was made for information as to the resting place of his bones, the in mates of the carriage—two ladies and a gentleman—>l*eing the grand children of the General, with a view to erection of a monument over cheat . They were shown the unmarked spot where .the re mains lay buried. They went away,but never returned, and no monument has keen reared to point out the place known only to a few individuals in ad vanced life, where the body of this brave aud accomplished man is inhum ed.” The Testimony. —lt is very generally Relieved by the friends of the late Philip Barton Key in this city, that there does not exist a tl tie of legal evidence of the truth of the charge that he had crimi nal intercourse with Mrs. Sickles; the confession of the fact obtained from her, by some means as yet hidden from the Public, not being such testimony as can be received by a Court of Justice. It is very evident to us already, that the end 1 °* the affair is notyet.— Washington Star. Last Honrs of the Pnstninster-Uenernl. The Hon. Horatio King, First Assist ant Postmaster-General, in an eulogium of Governor Brown, at a meeting of the Department yesterday, said : “ I saw Gov. Brown for the last time !on Wednesday forenoon, the day after he was attacked. He was taken with a severe chill on the Monday night pre vious, and this was followed by a high er fever, resulting in pleuria-pneumonia, at 3 o clock on Tuesday morning. The disease had been cheeked when I called, and he was comparatively comfortable. He had sent for me to inquire about the business of the Department, and was especially anxious to know what | Congress was doing in regard to the . Post Office bills before it. I gave hijn as brief and favorable account thereof as possible, for the physician charged me to occupy his attention but a few moments ; and I left him in the fond hope that ne would soon recover. But, alas ! congestion had already settled upon one of his lungs, and at about 2 o’clock of the same day the other was attacked, from which time until his death his condition became almost hope less. He sent for me again the next day, and also for his Third Assistant, who, unknown to him, then laid upon | the bed of death ; but his physician i had left such explicit ordeis for him to he kept quiet, that I declined to go into his room, excusing myself by an en couraging note, which appeared to satis fy him. With occasional interruption ■ from severe suffering, reviving for a ; moment the hopes of his family and friends, he continued to sink until death came to his relief. There is no doubt that his great concern relative to the Post Office Department, in the prosperi ty of which, from the day he took charge of it, he has felt the most lively interest, operated seriously against his recovery. In response to one of his at tending physicians on this subject, du ring one of the intervals of partial re lief, he said with much emphasis: "Yes, doctor, /have trouble." His inter view with the President, whom he re cognized and conversed with some time last night, is represented to have been most solemn and affecting. He took leave of his family with all that warmth of affection he always, in so remarkable a manner, displayed towards those he so dearly loved. His devoted wife and affectior.a to step-daughter watched oyer him evevy moment to the last, and kind friends were ever ready to assist.” —— -*♦*- Three Murders in One Parish.— The parish of Lake Providence, La., was the theatre last week of three dreadful tragedies, two of which resulted in al most immediate death, and the other, it is believed, will soon do so. The first took place on Mr. David Hay’s plantation, when a young man, named Wm. Watkins, being left in charge during Mr. H.’s absence in Ar kansas. attempted the correction of a disobedient negro, who turned upon his young master with a piece of rail, with which he crushed his skull, causing in stantaneous death. The murderer con cealed the body in the ginhouse, under a heap of cotton seed, but the trickling of blood through the flooring led to its discovery a short time afterwards. He was tracked to the river and some dis tance along its banks below, but at last accounts had not been captured. Wat kins leaves a mother and other relatives to mourn his sad fate. The other two took place in the town of. Lake Providence, the parties to botli being Irishmen at work on the levee. In the first, a man named James Fox was killed by a stab in the back from a hand unknown. In the second, a man, name not given, was shot in the abdo men, by one Stewart Maguire, who shortly afterwards fled.—JV. 0. Pic. The New Postmaster-General.—Hon. Joseph Holt, the new Postmaster-Gen eral, is a Kentuckian, and a man of fine business talents. As Commissioner of Patents, he has displayed superior ex ecutive ability, and his elevation to a seat in the Cabinet will be hailed by his many friends with satisfaction. Mr. Holt was educated for the profession of the law, and after his admission to the bar, he practised successfully for some years in Mississippi. Returning to Louisville, he resided there until his ap -1 pointment as Commissioner of Patents. He has always been a consistent mem ber of the Democratic party, but has never been an extremist in his opinions, nor identified with the advocacy of sec tional views. His mind has been well vnltured, and it is said he is, when he chooses to speak in public, a very effec tive orator. His appointment is, un doubtedly, due to the President’s knowl edge of his executive abilities and zeal in the discharge of any duties which may be devolved upon him. He succeeds to the Post Office Department, at a time when its affairs are seriously embarrass ed, and it will require all his energy and zeal to overcome the difficulties which he will encounter.— New York Sun. ft • —mu i i_jj _ OFFICIAL DRAWINGS OF THE Sparta Academy Lottery.

WEEKLY HE VIEW.| REMARKS.—There has been a fair amount of business doing this week in most departments i of trade. The weather has been more favorable than usual, and our streets are getting into tol-1 erable condition again. Wo have few changes, to report ip the Grocery and Provision trade,and the transactions in those departments have been to a limited extent. Fewer visitors are seen in our streets, as the planters are taking advantage t of this favorable weather to bring up their op erations now unusually behind. The season for planting i 3 at hand, and finds them mostly un prepared. Crops will be uncommonly late in i planting. COTTON—As wo anticipated at the close of; our last weekly report, tbe transactions of the j week show a steady improvement m prices. j Compared with our last, the advance on Middling Fair is }£c., on other grades the improvement is | not so marked The continued falling off in re- 1 ceipts, and the prospect of peace in Europe con tiuuing at least for a time, has created confidence \ and ha 3 quickened the demand. The increase of. , receipts has fallen off since the first of February, ■ j about which time it had reached its highest point, nearly 136,000 bales, and the probability is that the excess will continue to decrease more rapidly a > the season advances, consequently the highest estimates of the crop which we notice in ■ our exchanges is 3,800.000. Os course all such , estimates are bul guess work, and if we may be j , allowed the same privilege, we should put the , crop at a still lower figure, say 3.000,000. Either j amount is insufficient, if no commercial or polit ical crisis arises, to supply the demand, or t» j overstock the markets, consequently there is no . fear of any material decline in prices.
