Bishop Gross arrived in town yester day and is the guest of the pastor of St. Patrick’s. Matt. O’Brien has placed on our table No. 1 of a neat little advertising paper entitled the Georgia Railroad Journal. There was a rumor that a negro had committed suicide by cutting his throat, last evening, near the Union Depot, but enquiry failed to verify the rumor. We regret to learn of the serious illness of Mr. John W. Marshall, for sometime past, assistant operator in the office of the Southern and Atlantic Telegraph Company in this city. His sister has arrived from Savannah, his home, and she will give him that care and attention which only affection for the loved one can. Fruits of All Kinds. E. A. Massa, Jackson street, has just received a large lot of luscious Florida orauges of fine flavor ; also a lot of Northern apples, of anew variety and the first of the kind ever shipped to this market. He also has a large lot of bananas and malaga grapes, the lat ter of the finest quality. Duprez & Benedict. We had a call yesterday from Mr. Laine, Agent of the above famous min strel troupe. He informs us that the troupe, as now organized, is better than when last here, so from this fact, all may know what to expect. The pressall over the country pronounce Durez & Benedict’s as the best traveling, aud no doubt they are. They will be here on Saturday 16th, and next week the sale of reserved seats will commence Go early if you would secure a good seat. “ Brudder ” Turner. It requires considerable courage to publicly acknowledge an error, but we have to appear in that role. We stated recently, that Hon. J. B. Deveaux, of Jones county, was the loudest voiced man in Georgia, but after listening to Rev. H. M. Turner, L. L. D., in his “ nigger ! nigger ! nigger !” speech, it must be admitted Mr. Deveaux cannot hold a candle to Dr. Turner. It is sur prising how a man can raise his voice when there is a scheme to advocate, in which there is a prospective placer. Epizootic. This disease, which raged so a few years ago at the North, and wjiich seems to have again appeared there, has also made its appearance here. Quite a number of the horses in the public stables have it, though it seems to be of a very mild type. None of the animals as yet are sick enough to be relieved from work, and some are get ting over it. We trust, and have no doubt, the disease will give very little trouble if persons are careful not to over drive or work the animal that shows symp toms. With attention, most horses in this climate seem to recover in about eight or ten days. The Jewish Fast. The Day of Atonement or “Yom Kipur,” commenced last evening at sunset, and will end at sunset this evening. It is a very sacred festival with our Hebrew population, and the fast is literally observed by both sexes after they have attained the age of thirteen years, and food and water are not partaken for the space of twenty four hours, the entire day being de voted to fasting, prayer, atonement and repentance. It is customary among the Israelites, before the Day of Atonement, to make reparation to those whom they may have injured, and ask pardon of those whom they may have offended, believing that a transgression of the divine command will be forgiven by true repentance; but one against his fellowmen can only be atoned for by receiving lius pardon. At the Synagogue on Telfair street, Rabbi Levison conducted the services last evening, which consisted of impres sive penitential prayers and confes sions The Psalms of David, replete with supplications for mercy and par don were chanted by the choir, accom don, were e and the eloquent Jsrael, were read in Hebrew. THE COLORED CONVENTION. “Boss” Turner and Jeff Long Winc ing—Explanation of Turner’s New' Company with $1,000,000 Capital- Thanks to Judge Johnson Quali fied —The Federal Office-Holders Overhauled—Jeff Long Still Waving the Bloody Shirt —“Compliments” to the Constitutionalist. At 9:40 a. m. yesterday, President Long rapped upon the desk in the County Court room and called the con vention to order. An elderly man was called upon to open the proceedings by prayer, which he did in a most feeling manner, totally avoiding any allusion to politics. At this period of the proceedings, about two-thirds of the delegates were in their seats, and an air of listlessness prevailed, as “Boss” Turner was ab sent. In the lobby, but few persons were present,among whom were several whites, and they appeared to be only drawn thither by a spirit of curiosity. The minutes were read and after some discussion adopted. Delegate White offered a motion, that all speeches be restricted to five minutes. He, in common with the ma jority of the delegates w r as tired of list ning to LONG WINDED SPEECHES, but wanted the work accomplished so that the convention might soon ad journ. After a slight discussion the fifteen minute rule was adopted. Delegate Belcher called up the regu lar order of business, stating that in his opinion it was the vote of thanks to Judge Johnson and Mr. Akerman. De bate arose, and Mr. Belcher amended his action by moving that tfre resolutions be taken from the table and adopted. Carried. The Secretary read the resolutions. Hon. Mr. Deveaux, of Jones county, withdrew his opposition to the resolu tions, but should vote “nay” on their final adoption. E. R. Deveaux lauded the action of Mr. Akerman for his courageous ac tion in defending the colored prisoners at Sandersville. It was a matter of re gret that any delegate had given forth to the world that there was opposition from a single man to these resolutions of thanks. He opposed that portion of the resolutions which thanked Judge Johnson, especially in the shape they came before the convention. If the resolutions were adopted as a whole the convention would be looked upon as COMPOSED OF MEN OF SMALL CALIBRE and lacking in intelligence. He offered an amendment, qualifying the resolu tion, to the effect that it was a matter of regret that he charged the jury that no acts of violence had been committed against the colored people. The previous question was called, and the amendment was adopted. The original resolutions were called up and adopted, Mr. Belcher disclaiming their parentage. Delegate Turner now put in an ap pearance. Delegate Belcher called up the reso lutions relative to LUKEWARM REPUBLICANS. Delegate White protested against any outside matter being brought be fore the convention. The call for the convention was simply to protest against the charge that the colored men of Georgia were -banded together against the interests of the whites. Do nothing but what the convention was called together to do. SLIGHTLY SARCASTIC. Hon. Mr. Deveaux (sotto voce ) — “That’s a reflection upon the intelli gence of the convention.” He then offered the following resolutions: Whereas, One of the main objects of the Convention, judging from its deliberations of yesterday, is to beslaver with uudis tinguishing adulation certain men for sim ple performance of their duty; and, VVlmreas, The movers of these resolu tions seem actuated by the sole motive of bestowing windy ana unmerited compli ments in cases where men have acted solely in accordance with the simple convictions of right; and, Whereas, Numerous worthy and distin guished men of our own acquaintance, un mentioued in these resolutions, have equal claims to honesty and sincerity of pur pose, the course of and a strict adherence to the promptings of duty, action which they have hitherto pursued. Be it Resolved, That the thanks of this convention are hereby extended to Hon. ltobert Toombs, whose fidelity to his prin ciples no one will question, and whose per tinacity in their advocacy all will concede; to Hon. Ben Hill, whose feats as a political acrobat are the wonder of an admiring country, and whose consistency in follow ing out a course of conduct he seems to have adopted to lend the influence of his talents and eloquence in advocating and elucidating every side of every public question we are so well acquainted with; to that Christian soldier and statesman, Gen. John B. Gordon, who has been equally an ornament in the Senate and in the field, and whose speeches have indisputably proved to Northern audiences and the Northern press the existence of a spirit of fraternal feeling and brotherly love be tween the two races in the South, which can find a parallel only in the millennium of the future; and last, but not least, to Gov. J. E. Brown, w T hose profound sincerity, freedom from dissimulation and inflexible adher ence to principle, uninfluenced by even the strongest promptings of interest, have won the acclamations of both parlies and all classes of people. Delegate E. R. Deveaux moved the adoption of the resolutions, especially the one relative to Bob Toombs and added that REV. MR. TURNER COULD GO OUT TO LIBERIA as chaplain and quell the insurrection there. The resolutions were referred to the Committee on Resolutions and Address. The matter of lukewarm Republi cans was brought up again by Delegate Belcher, who, in a speech of considera ble power ard eloquence, called atten tion to the • ABUSES under which the colored people suffer ed in having men appointed to Federal office who were former enemies of the colored people, especially,naming Brim berry and the so-called Siamese twins —the brothers Clark. Such men were a disgrace to any party, who are good Republicans in Washington and almost decline to hold conversation with a colored man in the South. Delegate Turner tried to choke off the charges made by Mr. Belcher, on the ground that it was political matter. The convention however voted to give Mr. Belcher an extra ten minutes. Af ter Mr. Belcher had finished, Turner rose again and the President an nounced: “The gentleman from Bibb,” but someone saying, “he is from Chat ham,” the President added: “Well our brother moves around so much he is almost like a carpet-bagger.” “Boss” Turner did not want any po litical discussion. The President’s gavel was used pretty frqply as delegates in terrupted the speaker with questions. He, (Turner) added, that he had been misrepresented by the Constitutional ist because it stated he said oath makers’ had made affidavits with pis tols at their heads, when he simply said, he if had been told so.” Delegate Pledger called attention to the abuses of the Federal officials in Northeastern Georgia, who made friv olous arrests simply to get extortionate fees. He implored the delegates to show their manhood by passing the re solutions of censure, so that the Gen eral Government might understand that the colored men wanted proper leaders. At this juncture of affairs, the lobbies were crowded, mostly with colored men, who appeared to be en rapport with the speaker's charges, judging from the applause which they gave. Delegate Turner moved to indefinite ly postpone the whole matter, but no one seconded the motion. Delegate Pledger resumed, and said such men as Jack Brown were pressing forward for public advancement, and had even offered the speaker the posi tion of storekeeper— Delegate Turner (interruptihg)— “For God’s sake desist.” Mr. Pledger sat down. Hon. Mr. Deveaux ARRAIGNED THE ADMINISTRATION for the manner in which the interest of the Republican party was sacrificed; no black man could get a position except one on a par with a scullion. The previous question on taking the resolutions of censure from the table was passed, and the convention declin ed to take them from the table. Delegate J. H. Deveaux offered a resolution that the matter of the FEDERAL OFFICE-HOLDERS be referred to the State Central Com mittee, where it properly belonged. Car ried. Delegate Turner drew the attention of the Convention to an editorial in the Constitutionalist which referred to him. He disclaimed being a turbulent character; had never advocated dis turbances, but had worked for the elevation of his race and was going to Africa, and will ask the State of Geor gia to iucorporte a company with a million of dollars capital for emigra tion purposes. Was only seeking the moral and intellectual elevation of his race, and did not intend to wofk against the white man. Out of the thousands of speeches the speaker made, no such turbulent spirit could be found in them. President Long then left the chair, and, taking the floor, said it was a sur-. prise to him, a native Georgian and a slave up to the war, that he should be attacked in the editorial columns of the Constitutionalist. Had been trusted by his master during the war, and was left in possession of a stock of goods worth ten thousand dollars. Had tend ed sick Confederate soldiers, and had never shown a spirit of hate towards a white man. The colored man could not be driven from the land, but with the cross in one baud and the bible in the other, would stay in the South. He wandered into the usual stale argu ment about Ku Klux, etc. He advised the colored men, in a body, to leave all the so-called insurrectionist counties. [“Hurrah for Jeff Long!” cried many voices.] Had nothing to say about the African emigration scheme, but thought the colored men should go somewhere where ho would be protected in his rights. If the people of Georgia do not act different, the BLACK LABOR WILL LEAV E THE STATE. In two years from now, unless things change, the COTTON WAREHOUSES WOULD LOOK THIN. “God bles3 the white people, and may they do better ! ” said the speaker in conclusion. Hon. J. B. Deveaux offered a resolu tion protesting against the treatment extended toward Hon. Tunis G. Camp bell—a political persecution—and re commending measures to aid him in his defence. Delegate Belcher said it was a DISGRACE TO THE EXECUTIVE of the State of Georgia to assist in the persecution of the old man Camp bell, and proved that the only reason why Gov. Smith did not act as a ty rant was because the laws restrained him. The following resolution was offered and tabled : Whereas, An editorial appears in to-days issue of the Constitutionalist charging Hons.J. F. Long and H. M. Turner of enter taining and fomenting bad feeling against the whites. Resolved, That in view of the personal ex planations elicited from those gentlemen by that charge, we respectfully request that that error be corrected. COMMITTEE ON OUTRAGES. A report was made from the commit tee appointed to examine into the alleg ed insurrection, which was accom panied by a number of affidavits, that were read. The report was one of a character which for its basis commenc ed by arranging the Bourbon Demo cracy, and was of the usual bloody shirt order, murders, Klu-Kiux outrages etc., and giving a li3t of the arms distribut ed by order of Governor Smith to the militia organizations, to show what a small amount of arms had been issued to colored men. The report was adopted. AFTER THE NEWSPAPERS. Delegate Turner took exception to certain remarks of some of the dele gates from Bibb county, who wanted it noted that colored men were drawn as jurors in 4heir county. “Boss” Tur ner thought it strange to defend a county which contained such a bitter paper as the Macon Telegraph. Gov. Smith should be made to tremble in his chair ; it was no time for laughter, but the subject matter was one to draw the closest attention of every colored man. EDUCATIONAL. Delegate W. J. White offered the fol lowing resolution : Whereas, There was at the last session ofour State Legislature an effort made, through the recommendation and solicita tion of Gov. Smith and State School Com missioner Gustavus Orr, to repeal the law which was passed by the legislators of 1872, making an appropriation of SB,OOO per annum to the Atlanta University, an educa tional institution established for the especial benelit of the colored youth of our State, and when, as it is well known, that this said appropriation was made and so accepted by the colored people of the State to satisfy the demands of said colored citi zens to an equal participation in the bene fits accruing from the donation of lands made to the State by the United States Government for educational purposes; and Whereas, The Governor of the State did, by turning over the entire proceeds from said public lands to the State University at Athens, Ga., an institution established and used exclusively for white students, into which colored students are not and will not be admitted; and whereas, through the effort to get the law making this appropri ation repealed at the last meeting of the General Assembly, failed to meet the ap proval of the said body, yet it is known that it is contemplated to make another effort next year to have this law repealed; therefore be it Resolved, That it is the sense of this Con vention that the said appropriation having been made by the State as a settlement of the question invdfved in the landscrip mat ter, and which settlement was accepted in good faith by the colored citizens of Geor gia, it would be an act of injustice and bad faith on the part of the State Legislature. Resolved, further, That we earnestly re quest the General Assembly not to repeal said law, as it would not only deprive the colored citizens of the just share of State funds for educational uurpo os, but will also increase the feeling of uneasiness, dis content and mistrust that recent events have so extensively produced among our people. Resolved, further, That a certified copy of this preamble and resolutions be furnished by the Secretary of this Convention to the Governor of the State, the State School Commissioners and tho Chairman of the Committees on Education of the Senate and House of Representatives. Adopted. REPORT ON ADDRESS AND RESOLUTIONS. Delegate Turner, from the Commit tee on Resolutions, made a lengthy re port. The report stated that a report having been raised on the 20th of Au gust that the colored people of Middle Georgia were banded together for in surrectionary purposes, that not a sin gle first-class white man on the witness stand sustained such a report; deny ing the charge in toto, condemning the incarceration of seventy-nine colored men tried in Washington county, and two hundred in other counties, calling for the punishment of the authors of the report, denouncing the so-called in surrectionary report as a conspiracy against the colored people, praising Judge Johnson, claiming equal rights with white men, calling for protection through the laws of the State, and re commending the colored people to leave the insurrectionary districts. The report was adopted. GENEROUS SUBSCRIPTIONS. A statement was made that a sub scription for funds to defray expenses resulted in $1 being subscribed by the Post Office and 40 cents by the Revenue Office of Augusta. CARRY THE NEWS TO TURNER. E. R. Deveaux asked Brother Turner if he had heard lately from Liberia, which brought out a long-Rinded speech from the great emigratoi. and he said he was tired of hearing the cry of “nigger ! nigger ! nigger !” He spent half an hour in ventilatfng his peculiar notions. The report establishing an Emigra tion Society was adopted, and J. B. Deveaux was appointed 'resident. A vote of thanks was parsed to Mayor Estes, Judge Snead, the o fficers and the Augusta reporters, and on motion, the convention adjourned sine die after prayer by “Boss” Turner. TIIE AUGUSTA EXCHANGE. Meeting To-day—What is Being Done —lncreasing Interest in the Work. One of the most important institu tions of our city is the Augusta Cot ton Exchange, and one of the principal and most interesting features of the Exchange is the daily call Of stocks, bonds, wheat, cotton for future de livery and various other things important to the commercial world. It is a well known fact that, in all large cities, this daily call at the Exchange is really the principal stimulus of the commercial centres, and it is eagerly watched each day by all—merchant and farmer, and every one who has a sur plus dollar to invest:—as in any branch -of trade, in fact more so, because it is one of the controlling influences, and each day an opportunity is afforded whereby the exact value of every bond, railroad stock, wheat, cotton, etc., can be 3een, and the various waverings will readily inform those interested of the most desirable investments. Then a man need not be afraid to invest, as he is fully posted and knows how the markets run, if he lives a hundred miles from here, as well as he would if he were present at each daily call.— Then again, it is a centre of at traction for our merchants, where each day an exchange of ideas can take place and business discussed, all of which, either directly or indirect ly, interests the public. * Then, again, it gives tone to the city, attracts the attention of persons of importance to the city, brings them here periodically, and with them their trade ; and, finally, the city will have an immense commer cial notoriety all over the country. Of course, all this tends to swell our business, and increase our importance. It is to be hoped, therefore, that the new feature established by the Ex change will meet with a hearty sup port. To-day, a meeting of the Ex change will take place at 12:45 p. m., and all are requested to bp present, as important business will be'ffirought be fore the meeting. Among other mat ters, a reduction of tho initiation fee for the present will be discussed, as a great many are desirous of becoming members, but are probably deterred from so doing on account of the price of initiation. As the new members will take an active part in toe daily call, they are of course desirable, aud will add much to the importance of the move. Certainly a great amount of good may be expected. State Fair. 5 The Georgia Railroad has placed a night train on, to accommodate those who wish to attend the State Fair. Those leaving by this train arrive in Macon in the morning, spend the day there, aud taking the night train, arrive in Au gusta early in the morning.

Preaching by the presiding elder at 11 a. m. to-day. No service tq night. From the World’s Dispenserv Printing Office and Bindery. Buffalo, N. Y., we have received “The People’s Common Sense Medical Advisor, in plain Eng i-th; or, Med icine Simplified,” by R. V. Pierce, M D., Counsellor-in-Chief of the Board of Physi cians and Surgeons in the World’s Dispen sary. Whoever helps humanity in its struggle with its inherent weaknesses aud diseases, to bear or cure, is its benefactor. Ignorance is not only of itself a cause of disease and mortality, but it i§i the enemy of every effort to cure or mitigate. Nothing will so speedily remove this cause as knowl edge—an elementary one, at Least—of the diseases to which we are heir, as well as those superinduced by our own impru dence. Dr. Pierce has rendered, in our judgment, a benefactor’s service, both to the afflicted and to the profession, in his diagnosis of the diseases treated of, and in the presentation of the philosophic princi &les involved in thpir cause and removal. .e is sparing of remedies, and usually pre scribes such as are safe in unskilled hands. Asa book merely of abstract k nowledge, it is exceedingly readable and interesting, especially the following subjects: Cerebral Physiology. Human Temperaments, Pseu do-Hygiene, the Nursing of the Sick, Sleep, Food, Ventilation, etc. In one chapter, on another subject, so delicate in its nature that it is shut up beyond the domain of warning to all but physicians* so accursed in its results in modern society, he is most explicit, and alike true to God,'to virtue, to life, and to society, shows the truth as pre sented in the teachings of Scripture—that life begins with conception--with great force, to which is added faithful warnings.

Remarks. For the past week, business has been only tolerable, the earlier part of the week being dull. To-day and yesterday, there was a change, however, and quite an improve ment was notable. Cotton is coming in ve-y freely, and money may be said to be just coming into active circulation. The New York financial market has experienced a relief, gold being easier, and foreign ex change being in demand, and therefore ex porters are moving cotton freely. The state of our local market at present is very healthy, and merchants are doing a careful business. They have nut extensive stocks, but enough to fully meet the demand. Meats continue very firm aud during the week have advanced. For Bacon, the demand has been good, and the market is firm, with no advance to-day. The Grain market is very active. Wheat firmer, lots of choice white are taken freely on arrival at quotations. None but the best is sought for, and for un sound there is n omarket. Corn is dull but firm, at present prices. Oats are linn and unchanged. There is a limited supply of Wheat Bran and Corn Meal, aud prices are unchanged. Financial. In financial circles, business has been ac tive. Money is easy, with a full supply for cotton demands. EXCHANGE. New York exchange buying at % to % off, and selling at par. Charleston exchange buying at y to % off, and selling at par. There has been a good demand for New York exchange. CALL AT THE AUGUSTA EXCHANGE —1 P. M. Financial—New York Exchange, % bid.
