Mgr bis & Co., for several bottle of “Paiktr London Club Sauce,” aud it sample of the "Club House Oin.” The latter we have not triad, but the sauce we pi©—; uounce a most savory article,surpassing in richness and delicacy of flavor the most popular sauces of the day. It bad its origin, as its name indicates, in the epicurean clubs of England, and for all purposes where piquant sauces arc used it will be found most agreeable. It claims also to possess anti dyspeptic properties. A Nwd Oealh. An interesting daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. V. Keener, (whose funeral takes place this afternoon) came to her death under very distressing and some what remarkable circumstances. A few days ago she pierced her foot with a aplinter, causing at the time, but alight pain ; in a day or two inflama tion ensued, and on yesterday she died of tetanus. Last Friday she was at school, and full of life and hope as the gayest of her companions. A sad and startling illustration of the uncertainty oi life. Augusta Ah It I*. FLOURING HILLS. The milling interest of this city is one of the most important sources of her revenue, and has added much to her wealth and commercial greatness and prosperity. Ten years ago Flour had to be imported here —now we ex port large quantities of the best giades to all parts of the Union, and to foreign markets. Grits likewise, had to be im ported from Charleston at high prices now we ship a large amount of it to Florida, Alabama, and other places.— The quality of the Flour made at our mills has never been excelled—scarcely ©quailed—and commands the highest rates in Northern markets. They make their Flour from the best of selected wheat. GRANITE MII.LS, These mills were erected of solid granite in the year 1818, hv our ener getic and indomitable fellow citizen Jambs 8. Coleman. The building is 2 1-2 stoiies high and presents ft handsome appearance. They have 6 stones which arc propelled by an overshot wheel, and they arc capable of turning out ISO barrels of Flour per day. They have three grades of Flour-«operfme-extra and extra family—of which they can scarcely supply the extensive demand Tiny have likewise seconds, wheat, bran, he., for which they readily find purchasers. These mills are now owned toy Messrs. Lewis & Ali.en, whose posi tion as merchants and as men of perse rernncc. integrity and worth, ranks veiy high in our community. They have within the past year erected a large brick warehouse, one story high and 180 feet in length, for the purpose of storing wheat. &c. Their business is a faeavv one, and they ship daily large quantities of their flour to various parts of our State and to other States CARMICHAEL MILLS. Tins is ft brick mill situated at the foot of the Canal Basin, and near the Summerville plank Roads. 3 12 stories high, and 140 feet in length. They have ample accommodations for storing wheat, corn, kc. In one room they bave six Linns capable o holding 10,- 000 bushels of wheat, and they are so arranged that the contents of one Binn can he changed and carried to another with the most perfect ease. This pro tects the wheat and saves it from be coming heated. They have storage for 40.000 bushels of wheat. 10,000 of bran, aud 5.000 of corn. The machinery is worked by 2 overshot wheels, and the general arrangements of the mill are in fine order. We hope that the proper authorities will have the deposit of mud in the basin removed, for at pres «nt it does not heighten the effect of the basin any. These mills are capable turning out 125 barrels of flour per ■day or 250 bushels meal. Their Super line Flour is made from Red Wheat, their Extra Family from Prime White, -and their Extra from good White Wheat. They manufacture a supeiior article of grits (bolted! for which there is en extensive demand, not only from tbe city, hut from adjoining Slates —. They have constantly on bawd a supply •f meal, crack’d corn, shorts, fine feed, bran. &c , of most excellent qnali.y The buildings are spacious and well vcn. tilated. and cost about $40,000. Messrs. Carmichael, k Co., are thorough go and enterprising men, and deserve the immense patronage which is bestow ed on their mills. PARAGON MILLS. This is the appropriate title which Messrs. Baker & Usher have given to their mills erected on Marbury street, between the second and third levels of the Canal, at a cost of $30,000 It i* -•f brick, 3 1-2 stories high, and has all the modem improvements for manufac j turing with dispatch. They have 4 •tones in constant operation, being pro- • lulled by 5 small wheels, aad capable dA turning out 300 barrels of flour per ■day. They have ample room to store -40,000 bushels of wheat, and their facil ■ ities for grinding are unsurpassed—plen ty of water and easy of ac&m Their 4padeß of flonr—superfine, extra and family—maintain a high position d* the market, and are eagerly sought' *•»>' by buyers. We might say ih it' Messrs Baker & Use sit are clever and pelite geu’leinen as wfII as an euergetic jmuivhauts. 1 The annual income derived from the |l «ale of Flour at these three mills will ! not fall far short of one million dollars.

For the benefit of our Babtist readers, we publish the following extract from a communication in the Mscon (Ga) Christian Index, of April 12th, signed James P. Boyce, Greenville, 8. C. The South Carolina railroad will per mit delegates to return free, provided thirty or more pass over the road, pay ing full fare on their way to the con vention. The Cliarlo'.t: and South Carolina, the • Northeastern, and the Charleston and Savannah railroads will return dele gales free, upon the payment of one fare. Owing to the refusal of the Wil i mington and Manchester railroad, . those from beyond Columbia towards the South and South-west, will find it best to take tickets at Augusta to Wel don, via Columbia, checking baggage . through to the Charlotte junction, its : there is only one through train, they . should leave Augusta on Wednesday I I morning ; and Montgomery and Cbat ! i tanooga on Tuesday morning ; and At 1, lanta and Savannah on Tuesday night, "] in order to reach Richmond, on Tlutrs ■; day afternoon. John W. White.—Wo excedingly dig.; • like to put this gentleman’s name in! onr paper now, when time has almost . obliterated bis last career in this city , from public memory—but we are so fre qucntly inquired of, by letter and other wise, iu reference to the sad affair, his present whereabouts, etc , that we can more easily answer—that we know i nothing of him- whether living or not i —it living, what he is doing, or on what part of the globe ho roams. Nor . do we believe anything is known about him in this city or section of country.~ He is cut off from his family aud friends and is probably an exile in a foreign ! j land.- -Chattanooga Gazette. A tremendous excitement is prevail ing in Fannin county, Texas, on ac count of the existence there of a branch of the Northern Methodist’church, and the promulgation of sentiments of such : a character as to prove they are inimical ! to ouf social institutions, and as such, not to be trusted in the State, on ac count of the aorrupting tendency of their teaching upon our servants.— Huntsville (Texas) hern i —, . 1 Miss Caroline McLain. 18 years of age . committed suicide in Jefferson Mich on the 16th ult., by swallowing strych- 5 nine. The act was attribated to r e lig- , jous ania. Southern Convention at Vlekoburg. To the People of the .Slaixholdiny Stales : _ F ellow Citizens : A committee, con sisting of J. D B. Deßow, of Louisiana, Hon John A. Quitman, of Mississippi, ,1100. Guy M. P.ryan, of Texas, Hon. W. L. 4 ancey, of Alabama, and Major W. H. Chase, of Florida, was appointed at j tlie late Southern Convention in Mont goniery, to invite the people of tbe Southern States to be represented at an adjourned meeting of the Convention in Vicksburg, Miss., hu the 9th of May next. The lamented death of Gen Quitman, cheated, soon after, a vae»ncy in the committee, which was filled with the name of Gen. J. J. Mcßae. The committee cannot believe Hint an argument is necessary to demonstrate to tbe people of the slaveholding States the importance of Union among them selves, and of mutual good understand -1 ing in the origination and discussion of questions essential to their security and repose. Os this nnturearo the questions which come annually liefore the Convention, ;tnd whatever diversity of opinion exists in legard to some of them, it cat.not be doubted that the light which the dis cussions elicit, and the conflict of mind and miud which they induce, exercise an influence most salutary, and keep alive a spirit favorable to patriotism. The presence annually at the Conven tion of a large number of men of posi tion and character from every section of the South, and of a large represen tation from the masses of the people, not under the restraints of party, and in no wise obligated to do its behests, and the free interchange of opinion which takes place among them, is itself an important feature of the Convention, and, in the absence of every other, should insure its perpetuity. It is only from such assemblies that, in periods of great public peril, the hopes of the patriot can lie realized—as the colonial history of the country evinced. There iR no name honored in the councils, or revered in the hearts of the South, from the earliest period of its history to the present, that may not be claimed as authority for everything that is sought by the Convention ; From such patiiotic sources have eoine warnings of danger, against which the | Convention would provide, aud appeals I for action to which the Convention ! wyuld respond : and if any of these are | now to be found in conflict with it or interposing discouragements, common place, yet sincere men, may find it diffi cult to understand the peculiar influence in establishing the security and repose of the South, which has been exercised by the "recent tiiurnphs of Black Re publicanism in every free State of the | North, and its seeming secured majori ties in the El< etorial College. : Fellow citizens of the South, let us not be lulled into sleep and dreams of ; security, which experience teaches can ; | only prove to be illusory, for opposition to slavery has entered into the head 1 and heart of thepeopleof theNorth.and can alono b. 1 mot by wisdom and firm- ness on the part of the South. The power which threatened us in its infancy and weakness unless met and re buked, is not likely to take a Rtep back ward iu the hour of its highest triumph, whateve; to the contrary it may be the interest or the want of nerve in politic- j ians to teach. There is much for the convention, however, to do beyond the discussion of political questions, important as are these, for within its purview comes everything that relates to the intellee-! tiial, moral, educational aTid industrial development of the South. To create things. The executives of the several States and the various municipal bodies of the South, are earnestly requested to send such delegates as will l>est rep resent the opinions of the body of the people.

M \N%, Kdltnr. I Jl Tliiß is the title of a WEEKLY paper, - devoted to Agriculture. Literatuke i and Art, which I design to publish in Augusta, Geo. It will he in quarto form i of eight pages, folio size—euch issue to contain forty columns of matter. It wall he in general style similar to, ami in size somewhat larger than the New : York Ledger. It will ho published on good book paper, and will be in me chanical execution in the best style of the typographical art. In utility, it will be all that the best agricultural science and practical knowledge of the South can furnish. A weekly visitor to the homos of Southern planters and farmers, it will be more useful and ac ceptable to them than any monthly journal of equal me.it. In mental attractions it will be all that a spirit of enterprise on my part, and a laudable emulation on tho i»rt of others, can evoke from Southern intel lect and cultivation. Too long the Southern people have j been content to look to Northern peri j i odicals for instruction in agricultural l ! I matters, and to Northern literary pa- , * pers for mental recreation. There is, however, a growing spirit of indepen- j: | dence and of self reliance at at the] South. Our people are awaking to the ! conviction that we have the elements j ] of success in the experience, knowledge i and scientific investigation of thedwel- | | lers in our own Southern homes. The t [i truth is gleaming upon us, that we have 1 . literary resources of onr own worthy to 1 be fostered—that among Southern wri- i 5 terg should be divided Eome portion'd' that vast stream of Southern money i that flows perpetually northward to j ■ sustain Northern literature. My aim is to establish a paper that will be a vehicle of information useful to Southern planters and farmers, and a j repcsitory of Southern thought, iuiagi ! nation and taste, in the realms of Lite- ! rature and Art; and to obtain for it ! such an extent qf patronage and success as will justify the most liberal compen sation to all its contributors. Able and experienced Editors are engaged, and , steps are in progress to secure eontribu-1 tions from the most pleasing Southern I, ; writers, of Imth sexes. Much talent |< will be brought to light, and furnish some agreeable surprises to Southern!, | people. [‘ ‘-Full many a gem, of pnrest ray serene,” will flash before their admiring eye*, ij and cans.- a generous glow of pride in Southern genius. t The Agricultural Editor will be Dr. Daniel Let., the distinguished Professor BY W, B.
