MINOR LOCALS.
The excursion to Thomson to-day
promises to be a very successful affair.
The police report a dull business, and
say the difference is marked as com
pared with a year ago.
A. V. Spradling, the vender of patent
medicines, who fell out of a wagon two
weeks since, died at the Hospital on
Friday night, and has been buried in
the poor house lot.
The building business is not very
brisk. Anew dwelling is projected on
Broad street to cost §IO,OOO and anoth
er on Greene street to cost about
§5,000.
The beautiful weather of yesterday,
had the effect to bring out many of the
fair sex to promenade our spacious
streets. Their refining presence en
livened the scene, and the visits paid
by them to retail merchants were very
welcome.
There teas an attempt at suicide on
Friday eveniDg. A negro named Wil
liam Crosby, about 40 years of age,
who i3 married but childless, employed
around the Georgia Railroad as a cart
man attempted to commit suicide by
cutting his throat with a razor. The
wiS done while under the influence
of liquor and the unfortunate man is
still alive.
New Post Office.
Workmen! have nearly cleared the
ground on the corner of Eliis and Mc-
Intosh streets, the site for the new
Post Office, aud it is expected that
the foundation will be commenced in
about ten days, and the building com
pleted and ready for occupancy by
February, 1876.
Bids have already been received from
several contractors, and it is thought
the building will be erected for a sum
in the neighborhood of §15,000.
According to the plans of A. Mac
murphy, the architect, made for Dr.
W. H. Doughty, the owner of the prop
erty, the building will extend ninety
feet on Ellis street, with a frontage on
Mclntosh street of thirty-five feet. It
will be of brick, two stories high, with
tinned roof. The facing brick will be
of the best pressed, of Augusta manu
facture.
The lower story will be fifteen feet
high, the interior being fitted in a most
convenient manner for Post Office pur
poses, with separate windows for
stamps, ladies, gentlemen, and money
orders. There will be six hundred
boxes of two sizes, fitted with the im
proved Yale locks; and thirty drawers
for the newspapers and large estab
lishments having a heavy correspond
ence. The windows will be of the best
French plate. The Postmaster will
have a private- office twelve by four
teen feet.
The second story will not be as high
as the lower story by a foot, and
be fitted for offices, etc.; it will be
reached from the street by a flight of
iron steps on the outside of the build
ing. This story will have basins, bath
rooms, and water closets.
The whole building will be finished
with all modern improvements, lighted
with gas, and particular attention paid
to ventilation. Although notj as pre
tentious in style as many post offices in
other cities of the same size as Augusta,
none will surpass it in convenience and
comfort.
Augusta Exchange.
Pursuant to notice, a special meeting
was held at noon, yesterday, of the
members of the Exchange, Vice-Presi
dent Alexander in \he chair.
A resolution was adopted fixing the
initiation fee at §25 until November Ist;
after that date to be §IOO, as hereto
fore.
On motion of Mr. Read, it was
Resolved, That the regular contract of
this Exchange be made to conform in ail

retary shall call for bids or offers on spe

Notes of the Colored Convention.
A mistake was made in giving the
titles of Delegate Turner. It appears
that distinguished but somewhat noisy
individual is a Doctor of Divinity in ad
dition to being a Doctor of Laws ; so
his official title read thus : Rev. H. M.
Turner, D. D. LLD. Why he isn’t of
ficially dubbed Bachelor of Arts does
not appear but judging from his
past history, he is entitled to it.
It was remarked what a knowledge
of parliamentary usages and laws was
evinced by the delegates. Few assem
blages of white men of the same size
could produce so many of its members
conversant with intricate questions of
law and order regulating deliberative
assemblages. However, JeffLoDgwas
too sharp for them, for when a vote
was taken on any question in which
Jeff had a personal interest, he would
declare “ carried,” so quick before “ di
vision ” could be called, that the dele
gates had no show.
A large number of the delegates
were dubbed “Rev.,” and they were,
judging from their sleek appearance,
on good terms with the boarding house
keepers.
Shiny hats, good clothes and a
liberal display of jewelry was the rule
among the orators, while the common
herd who simply voted and did no
talking, looked as though with them,
it was a struggle for an existence.
“We will strip the State of labor, so
that you will see the cotton warehouses
empty in two years,” was the remark
made by one of the prominent orators
after the convention.
The disturbing effect of the conven
tion will keep many thousands of dol
lars out of the pockets of the ignorant
colored laborers, who leave their work
to attend caucuses. Already in our city
wo notice knots of colored laborers
discussing the situation, and the words
“Convention,” “Africa,” “Emigration-”
etc., are heard as the debate waxes hot.
A New Song.
Through the courtesy of the Au
gusta Music House, we have received a
new and attractive song, composed by
a young lady well known in our city.
It’s title—“ There’s a beautiful song”—
suggests the disposition of the fair and
talented composer; while the melody
that interprets the poetry of the roses
is in admirable unison with the higher
order of popular ballad music.
This song is destined to general favor
because of its plaintive, teaching mod
erations, and ere long the popularity of
it will be established.
