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 respects to the form used in New York. Difference in grades to be settled by offi cial quotations of this exchange. That after the call ot regular contracts, the Sec retary shall call for bids or offers on spe cial contracts, with such limitation as may be desired. Adjourned. THE CHURCHES TO-DAY.

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. WEBB LODGE NO. 166. F. A. M.
