CITY TOPICS.
There at at present 25 inmates in the
Hospital.
The horses Basil Duke and Sand Hill
have not arrived, as stated in yester
day morning’s Chronicle.
Yesterday the Planters’ Union Agen
cy received from Mr. J. M. Dye, Jr., of
Burke county, five bales of new cotton,
classed middling.
No doubt all of the churches will be
well attended to-day. To hear the
word of God is to strengthen us and
make us prosper, and, when so little
trouble i8 required, all should pay
tribute to Him this one day out of the
seven.
Mr. M. A. Stovall, well and popularly
known to our citizens, has established
a coal office, and lie desires the pat
ronage of the public. He is a thorough
gentleman, of fine business qualifica
tions, and has the best coal in the
market. We bespeak for him a liberal
patronage.
The Piedmont and Arlington Life
Insurance Company is one of the best
established in the State. Reliable and
prompt in the payment Of policies, it
has acquired a fine reputation, and its
business is second to none in the
South. It would be to the advantage
of all who wish to purchase policies to
consult this company.
Mr. H. Wessels of Aiken, S. C., will
soon establish a poultry farm near the
outskirts of that town for the purpose
of raising chickens, ducks and geese
for the trade. He is now about to
make a large pond for the benefit of
the web footed fowls. We saw a few
days since a fiock of forty young ducks,
belonging to this gentleman, waddling
in a lively manner on one of the streets
of Aikeh.
Trials of Insurrectionists.
A speedy trial and conviction (if
guilty) of the negro insurrectionists is
follow their most unaccountably
stupid plot to massacre the whites.
Yesterday the trials of the Burke
county negroes commenced at Waynes
boro, but up to this writing none have
been finished. It was deemed fit and
prudent to have a military guard
around the court house, and a com
pany has been detailed for that purpose.
Proposed Concert at Aiken.
It is probable that arrangements will
be made at an early day for a concert
to be given at Aiken by the Aiken Glee
Club in conjunction with the Arion
Quartette Club, of Augusta. One of the
leading features of tbe anniversary ball
of the Palmetto Rifle Club Tuesday night
hist which we failed to mention at the
time was the fine singing and instru
mental music of the Glee Club of Aiken,
under the leadership of Mr. King. This
club hds been practicing but a few
weeksbnd from the progress already
made it is but safe to judge that they
will succeed as rapidly in the future
We hope the Arion Club, of this city, of
which Air. Charles H. Smith is leader,
will soon complete arrangements, and
Xr a concert at Aiken they will then
give another at Augusta.

THE ROME BONDS.
Some Misstatements Corrected —What
tlie Augusta Bondholders Inteud
Doing—-Beggars Wanting to he
Choosers—What Rome May Expect-
She Proclaims Her Own Doom,
For cool pauper impudence wo will
put Rome, Ga., against the world and
give heavy odds. It beat that of the
beggar boy who would not accept a
vest because there was no watch pocket
in it. Some two years ago or more,
Rome, Ga., then in the enjoyment of that
pride a fond mother feels when her
first born is able to twaddle on its feet,
after weeks of laborious training, or, to
compare more admirably, the exulta
tion of a young boy when he doDs his
first pair of breeches and struts about,
swelled to enormous dimensions by
vanity at the thought of his two-legged
dress—such was Rome, Georgia, not,
however, until after Augusta had
propped her on her legs ; not until Au
gusta had furnished her with her
breeches, or, more plainly speaking,
not until Augusta had furnished her
with money to advance her interests
and improvements and foster her en
terprises. But, let us see what she was
before she received aid from Augusta.
A SUPPLIANT BEGGAR.
She came to us for assistance, as a:i
abject and suppliant beggar, craving
the financial crumbs which fell from
the pockets of our moneyed citizens.
With the eloquence of her most dis
tinguished citizens did sho piteously
plead for assistance, and exhibit for
our inspection a map of her status
then, her locomotion being impeded
by want of linances to get up steam.
And then for our inspection she pre
sented a map of her future, a great
railway centre, prosperous and con
trolling a vast amount of trade. Her
coffers yearly receiving large additional
revenues, her water works the wonder
and admiration of those Northern
mountaineers and plantation negroes.
Factories abounding on all sides—pro
vided she could move the hearts of
our citizens to extend to her a few
hundred thousand dollars worth of
charity.
WITH HER BREECHES ON.
When all of these facts were
set forth by Rome, Augusta res
ponded fully and freely. Some
two hundred thousand dollars
worth of bonds were placed in the mar
ker, and they sold well at first. It is
stated that Augusta bought the Rome
bonds for fifty cents on the dollar.
Such is not true, as not a dollar’s worth
of those bonds were sold for less than
seventy per cent., and some of them
sold for seventy-five per cent. Of the
North Georgia Railroad bonds SIOO,OOO
worth were placed in the market and
sold for 70 cents. The Memphis Branch
bonds brought 70 cents, and the Rome
water-works bonds sold at 70 and 75
cents on the dollar. So the statement
that the Augusta bondholders obtained
their bonds for 50 per cent, is untrue.
They bought them in good faith and
with a view to promoting the prosperity
of Rome, and they have been treated
with the utmost ingratitude. Rome may
possibly not have netted the 70 cents
paid by Augfista, but that is no concern
of ours. Augusta is out that much
money, and she proposes to get it
back.

UNEQUALED IMPUDENCE.
Now comes the sequel of being chari
table. Rome used her moaey advanta
geously it is to be presumed (unless it
was stolen from her, which may be the
case), and then with the greatest sar g
from imaginable, condescends to in
form Augusta that she has come to the
conclusion that she cannot pay her
bonded indebtedness in full, and that it
would be a matter of the greatest con
venience to her if Augusta would
demand only partial payment. Here is
where her proclivities for improving on
the general system of begging showed
themselves. To call it impudence
\ would be an insult to the pauper pro
fession; to call it stealing would be to
disgrace the scientific robbers’ profes
sion, and to call it plain begging, whicti
had formerly been the case, would be
to insult high-toned and majestic
Kume; therefore a modest request is
the only alternate left by which to de
nominate it. When a beggar in
quires, “Please, man ain’t had nothin’
to eat to-day; can’t you give me a little
wittles; father’s dead; mother’s sick;
aunt, she’s been had the distemper, or
something else, for two years, and we
are starving;” and you offer liiqi some
cold meat and bread; would you not be
astonished if he should turn up his
nose ? Well, a professional will do j ust
such as that, and politely inform you
he’s accustomed to warm meals. Rome
is something like the beggar, only
not quite so independent; she’s
avaricious; takes what you give,
benefits by it, and then be
gins to reflect that it might have
been better, turns up her nose at what
she has done, and swears by the crowd
of evil counsellors who surround her
that she has been defrauded, in not
receiving the best the market affords.
AGAIN CRAVING CHARITY.
However, before finally declaring her
final intentions, she appears the sec
ond time as a beseeching pauper and
asks Augusta to relieve her of fuL
payment of her bonds, which Augusta
did, to firmly establish Rome on a
sound basis, and in lieu of
full payment, Augusta agreed to take
75 cents on the dollar, with interest,
and finally she proffered to accept 70
cents. This proposition the citizens of
Romo considered and rejected at the
ballot box, only about 250 voters out of
GOO voting. They thought all they had
to do was to reject the compromise, and
Augusta would show more clemency.—
Really, we believe they thought they
could escape payment of the whole
amount. After rejection of the last offer
some of the prominent demagogue,
so-called, leaders, come forward and
propose to pay fifty per cent, in five
years, without interest. Candidly, gen
tlemen, this is really bordering on im
pudence. Judge Wright makes a propo
sition somewhat similar to this, and, as
he has the presumption to make it, no
doubt he imagines there is a proba
bility of its acceptance.
WHAT AUGUSTA WILL DO.
A reporter of the Constitutionalist
talked with some of the principal bond
holders aud they say they will now sue
and make Rome pay every dollar the
bonds call for and the 30 cents they
would have relieved her from will now go
as lawyers’ fees. They will sue in the
United States Courts and in less than
two years they propose to sell Rome
under the Shriff’s hammer if she is not
able to pay the full amount. Rome
officials may depend upon a late de
cision of the Supreme Court for
assistance, and as a means of shirking
any unpleasant results. The decision
referred to does not hold an official re
sponsible, nor can he be committed for
contempt after his term of office ex
pires, after such time the court not
iiaving any jurisdiction. In such an
event as the above being resorted to a
writ of mandamus will be sued out and
a receiver will be asked for, and he will
take charge of Rome, collect taxes,
&c., just the same as the receiver of a
railroad, and the bondholders expect
in two years time at least to either have
their money or have the sheriff auc
tioneering off Rome. 9
EVIL COUNSELORS.
Some attribute the stand taken by
Rome to evil counseling, and although
undoubtedly there are good men in
official positions and leaders of the
people, they are not strong enough for j
the others" who, to become popular, I

sacrifice the city and its interests and go
with the clamorous mob. It is something
like the negro insurrection. They act
without weighing the consequences,
which will eventually ruin the city, and
they go into the thing blindfolded. Un
doubtedly the credit of Rome is ruined,
her real estate depreciated, and she
will be treated with contempt hereaf
ter. She loses more than double the
amount at stake by her dishonest ac
tions, and her credit is eternally ruin
ed. A capitalist wli not and cau not
invest in bonds of a city who
will repudiate them as soon as she is
benefitted by them. Persons will not in
vest in real estate in a city whose repu
tation is gone by her dishonest prac
tices. People will not settle in her
midst, as their property will decrease
in value, and may at any time be sold
for taxes, which will consume the
major portion of it, and never again
can Rome borrow money. Her credit is
gone, and the only way to redeem it is
to come forward and promptly ac
knowledge what she has done,
and pay the full bonded debt.
The Augusta bondholders ask no
compromise now, nor will they
accept any. They are taking the thing
quietly, and will sue as coupons fall
duo, and what they proposed to ex
empt Rome from they will now give as
lawyers’ fees. There is not the slight
est doubt of their recovering the full
amount. There are about $200,000
worth of bonds held here, all of which
will be sued on. And now who will
lose by the operation ?
Tournament at Beech Island.
Quite a novel entertainment took
place in front of Dr. Cook’s residence,
on Beech Island, Friday last, being a
tournament, which was witnessed by a
large party of ladies and gentlemen.
Of course the gentlemen taking part
were all anxious to win prizes, which
also entitled them to crown the queens
of love and beauty. The contest was a
close one, and some of the desperate
charges on wooden posts, imaginary
human heads, and the skull cleav
ing would have done credit to
the most valiant of John Morgan’s
warriors.* The judges declared the
winners to be Dr. P. H. Eve, he win
ning the first prize ; P. E. Twiggs, of
Sand Hills, second prize ; H. M. Cook,
third prize, and G. T. Bryan, of Au
gusta, fourth prize.
The most pleasant part of the pro
gramme next took place, which was
the coronation of the ladies at the resi
dence of Mr. Paul Hammond.
\Ve have read the raving3 of poets
about the beauty of ladies, comparing
them to the downy side of a crimson
tinted peach, those whose beautiful
countenances rivalled the gorgeous and
lovely rays of the setting sun, or terra
ces of snow shedding myriads of varied
colors, like the picturesque scene, re
flected from the crystal on an iceberg
exposed to the sunshine, and other
comparisons too numerous to mention;
but the queens of beauty whom
the knights of the sword and
lace, crowned on this occasion would
brilliantly surpass anything of th 9 kind
or any reality we have ever before
seen. Dr. Eve crowned Miss Annie
Hammond, Mr. Twiggs Miss Maria
Hammond, Mr. Cook Miss Bessie Fitz
simmons, and Mr. Bryan Miss Blanche
Walton. After the crowning there was
a delightful entertainment, musieale,
after which the party wended their
ways homeward, all highly delighted
with the day’s sport.

Worth. Noting.
Mr. Whitney exhibited at tho Au
gusta cotton exchange yesterday, three
cotton stalks, sent him by R. J. Butler
who cut them off his farms near Ham
burg, S. C. Oue of the stalks, a single
stem, contained about 27 bolls, had
suffered neither from rust or drouth,
while the second stalk grown on a farm
adjacent to the first, was much larger
and contained only two or three bolls,
while others were just begiuing to peep
forth. The third stalk, grown ou
the same farm, was completely eaten
up with rust. Tho first stalk had not
suffered from drouth, although grown
very near the second, and a small
shower of rain had probably increased
the yield on the farm thirty per cent.,
at least. The second farm had suffered
very much from drouth, and in spots
all over the farm rust had ruined the
crop. Thus it will be seen that a farm
of two hundred acres or less will in
parts produce a splendid crop, while in
other parts the yield will amount to
nothing. In spots rust and drouth
partially destroy a cotton field, while
directly adjacent neither of these de
stroyers will interfere.
-
Pardoned.
Yesterday the Governor pardoned
the young negro, Harris, convicted of
homicide in this city some time ago,
and sentenced to a term in the peniten
tiary. Our readers will recollect that
some time ago a negro man, who was
convicted of a crime and sentenced to
tho penitentiary, tried to burn the jail
before he had been transferred to the
penitentiary. He set fire to the ceiling
of his cell, and one of the iron rods be
came loosened, which he used as a
weapon, and defied the police to enter
his cell, and he was finally killed. Har
ris was in the cell with him, and was
the one who gave the alarm, and noti
fied t the jailor of what was going on,
and on this account the Governor
granted him a pardon.

Sandersville, Ga., August 28.
i
While the excitement consequent on
the recent attempted outbreak has
subsided, the town still presents a war
like appearance. The Washington
Rifles are in charge of dj;: prisoners,
and strict military discipline is kept
up, reveille, guard mounting, and dress
parade taking place as regularly as in
time of actual hostilities, The uniform
of the command is that oner prescribed
for the infantry of the Confederate
States, grey coats, faced witjii blue, and
blue pants, and in the easel of the offi
cers with the badge of rink in the
shape of bars upon the collar and gold
iace embroidery upon the sjeeves. The
hats are black felt, looped up at one
side with the letters W. R. f Forty-five
men are present for duty, Kud, as may
naturally be supposed, the duty has
been severe, but is borne With great
alacrity and cheerfulness. I To-day the
Washington Dragoons are Jmlered out
to relieve the Rifles to some extent,
though both commands will remain
under arms. The cavalry! I have not
seen as yet, but havtj inspected
the infantry, and mad<j the ac
quaintance of the officers, Cap

Lieutenant Watkins, who I*beiieve also
saw service, and Lieutenant Hopkins.
There are some G 5 or 70 prisoners here,
so many, in fact, that the ;|iil is inade
quate to hold them, atid a number are
kept at the court house. |)uring the
day they are allowed to sit or lie about
in the court house enclosure, under the
eyes of sentries, it being necessary, for
sanitary reasons, to give* them the
fresh air and a reasonable degree of
exercise they obtain by beiCg marched
to and from the jail and 11 ept in the
open air. They are sufficiently fed and
cared for, and treated with humanity in
every respect. In fact, woi* ied and ex
asperated as the whites hsjve been by
the alarms and of the past
week or ten days, there is bo bitterness
manifested towards the blocks. They
are looked on, with the (Exception of
some few leaders, as pej-v, deluded
wretches, more entitled to icommisera
tion than hatred, and thei impression
and hope seems general thnt the great
mass of them will be discha rged by the
grand jury, which meets next Monday,
reserving the ringleaders fir trial and
punishment. Ou behalf ol the State,
John W. Robinson, Esq., tjie Solicitor
General of this Circuit, Colonel Wyliy,
his law partner and editor if the Sau
dersville Herald, and Robtf L. Rogers,
Esq., are busy in gettlig up tes

a number of cases, so:|ie fourteen
or fifteen. Colonel J. I|. Gilmore,
Mayor of Sandersville and* State Sena
tor for this the 20th District, his law
partner, S. G. Jordan, Esq.iand oue or
two lawyers from a distance, will act.
It was reported that a a number of
Northern attorneys had bjen retained
for the defense, but this ii a mistake
and seems to owe its origii| to the igno
rance of the negroes, who.mpon seeing
Mr. White, correspondentt>f the New
York Tribune in town, started the re
port that Grant had sent id lawyer to
help them and they were a& to be turn
ed loose instanter. J
I have seen all the prisoners, and
there are a number of bau characters
among them if faces are any indica
tion, as a rule, the poor
wretches are the ordinary • ype of easy,
good natured, foolish creatures we see
.around us every day, and *t would re
quire some evidence to satyify me that
they ever had any idea of! attempting
violence. There arc othemof whom so
much cannot be said. Thvlarge num
ber of prisoners here is <lui to the fact
that they have been sent it from tlie
neighboring counties and | have been
coming in pretty much al| the week.
Candy Harris was brough’* up for my
inspection, and came forward w 7 ith a
smile and bow as if strong in the
consciousness of innocence. This
ho sternly protested. He t old me in
answer to my questions: he could
read a little but could not yrite; never
had learned; that he was | preacher;
a “Baptis’ preacher, not ;$ hard shell
Baptis’, but a Missionary Baptis’, sail,”
and he smiled vigorously; h? had never
belonged to a military cojnpany and
had nothing to do with one | he was not
afraid of being found guicty of any
offense; he hadn’t done aulthirg and
he believed the “ledge would do him
jus’” (justice); he had beeil preaching
a long time for others, b*t had not
been praying more for himself, in par
ticular, lately than usual! he “jus’
prayed for all men, siuners> { jus’ as be
fore.” He is a dark brown ilegro, near
ly black, and has not an look by
any means, and struck me shrewder
than he looks, though totally uneduca
ted, unless an ability to spe| out a few
words and some vague idfas of law,
politics, liberty, the Civil .flights bill,
etc., be education. The Expense of
keeping so many prisoner!, tlie sup
port of the military, ami the still
heavier expenditures to co?ne iu the
shape of court costs, etc., w’il ruu the
biil up to from SIO,OOO to 5,000, and
it is but fair the State shcQld, at the
next session, assume the burden,which
would otherwise be $lO p‘>r head for
every white man, woman aud child iu
this county. As the offense charged is
one of the three crimes “ against the
State’’known to our law, k here is, I
fancy, no question but the
will at once make an appropriation
sufficient to cover all chargls iu its di
rection aud prosecution, tfov. Smith

speech to the people, and qa < ~ greatly
endeared himself by coining among
them iu the heat of the excitj ment aud

that our friends will thank us for
bringing before their notice articles
which have no superior among the
many that fill our markets. We refer
to the celebrated Dr. Price’s Cream

tracts. We have used them, and can
confidently recommend them to the
community as the beat article in do
mestic use. They are the leading arti
cles of their kind in America, and
should be on the shelf of every well
regulated family grocer. Place them In
your list, and when you next order
give them a trial. The Baking Powder
cans are as large as other kinds, con

is pure and light, and as two teaspoon

At the Cotton Exchange there has been
quite an active busine s in Cotton on spot,
and prices have improved, the advance
since Monday being %c. Dealings were
chiefly for spinning ac ount, and included
about 6,835 bales, which was fully three
fourths of the week’s sales. The improve
ment is apparently attributable to the
improvement at Liverpool and the un
favorable accounts of the crop of India
c >tton and the available supply has grad
ually diminished, but the receipts at the
ports show a gain of the entire movement
for the year, and shows that the total re
ceipts at the ports were 3,482,829 bales,
which, added to Southern consumption and
overland movement direct to points of
consumption will aggregate very closely
to 3,820,090 bales, which is fully 409,000 bales
less than estimate made last October. Ac
counts of growing crops are generally favor
able, there has been less rain and floods of
Mississippi have so far subsided that no
danger is anticipate!! from this source.
From some sections there are reports of
rust and rot, and in some counties
the bollworrn has appearee, but
from general estimates and average
reports, prospect “indicate J satisfactory
results. For future delivery lias been buoy
ant feeling in early months with quite ac
tive business. The total sales of the
week were 98,482 bales, of which 88,200
were on contracts, and 10,282 for immediate
delivery, of which 2,699 were f r export,
6,832 for spinning, and 748 for speculation.
