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. All the new Novels caiTbo found .at (Jeo. A.

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. Montgomery 87 New Orleans,La . 83 Norfolk, Vi> 76 Punta llassa, Fla. 79 Savannah, Ga B2 St. Marks 87 Wilmington, N.C, 76 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 Nashville Clear.

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. CHURCHES TO-DAY.

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.

THE NEGRO INSURRECTION. Tlie Military Still Under —Many Prisoners in Jail —Courijbel for the State a::d the Bafemje—-“Grant’s Lawyer”—Candy Harrbj “Praying for All”—Expenses of th<{ Outbreak —Gov. Smith’s Popularity. [Special Corresp. Constitutionalist.] 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 tain Peacock, a stout old P'Confed. ;” 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 timony, aud for the j defense in 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.

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.
