Mr. Arrnond.the agent, has furnished us with a copy of a book he is now dis posing of with immense success. It is a “Standard Pronouncing Dictionary,” an English publication, made up of the best results of all other first-class phi lological works. It commends itself to our approval because, in a short com pass, portable form, and, at a ridicu lously low price, every word employed in the language is conveniently at hand. E. M. Millek paints signs to suit the times. It Personal. Among the many pleasant gentlemen who honor us with a visit once in a while, we count William M. Lawton, Esq., of Charleston, aud now a mer chant of Liverpool, England, but re gret to learn he leaves for his new home again the 10th of November. Mr. Lawton has been the agent of the Direct Trade Union (Patrons of Hus bandry) of Georgia for over a year, and will hereafter do business on his own account, and represent Southern inter ests generally iu Liverpool. No more worthy gentleman or man, competent to speak for the commercial or agri cultural classes of the South, can be found than our friend Lawton, and he has our best wishes for success. Col. G. W. Torrence, a veteran of the Mexican war aud an officer of the old Louisiana Mounted Volunteers, met for the first time since that war, Gen. T. AY. Sweeney, U. S.

Second Day’s Proceedings. The Association at 9a. m., yesterday, Moderator Rev, W. L. Kil patrick, presiding, W. J. Rogers opened the proceedings with prayer. The following resolutions were re ported and adopted, on the death of n. b. moore*: , Resolved, That Hephzibah Associa tion in conveution assembled do regret to learn of the death of brother N. B. Moore. > Resolved, That in expressing this testimonial of esteem and love tor the memory of the departed, that we do mingle our sorrow aud suffering with that of the family, assuring them ana citizens in the loss of one who wore so well the Christian character that we partake of their sorrow and grief. Resolved, Asa further token of es teem that this Association do suspend business at 1 o’clock and meet at 4p. ui., that the friends and members of this body may pay the last tribute to the noble dead. Resolved, That a copy of the resolutions be handed the Constitutionalist. Chroni cle and Sentinel ad Christian Index, and they be requested to publish the same. Rev. W. EL Davis then reported from the Committee Circulars aud Letters, stating, iu substance, that there was great destitution within the limits of the Association; that it was a subject of mortification and surprise the churches do not meet outside of the city of Augusta oftenor than once a month. The question naturally arises, who is to blame? The churches are not censurable, because they are not able to pay; neither are the pastors. A suggestion has been made to have for pastors those who can teach school. The Association has been singularly blessed by God in its labor, but the destitute neighborhoods should be helped. The report recommended a committee of five to consider the sub ject matter. The Moderator appointed the fol lowing as the committee recommended in the report: M. P. Cain, J. J. Davis, R. Jordan, J. A. Carswell, H. L. Buttle. COMMITTEE REPORTS. The following reports were made : On deceased ministers ; on deaths of Revs. Thomas Granberry and L. F. McMoxrell ; Education ; Home Mis sions. THE CHRISTIAN INDEX. Dr. D. E. Butler made a very ener getic appeal for the Christian Index. It was the duty of all Georgina Baptists to subscribe and support such a worthy enterprise. The trouble was too much attention was given to supporting pa pers published in far off localities in stead of supporting home productions. The Index was a fine paper, lie said, and ought to be liberally sustained. MERCER UNIVERSITY. A lengthy and most interesting ad dress was made by Rev. A. J. Battle, D. D., Pt-esident of Mercer University, presenting the claims of that institu tion. It was organized forty years ago with prayer, and the patronage and prayers of the Baptists should be showered on this college. Since the removal of the institution to Macon, it seemed as though it took anew lease of life and prosperity, The trustees have put up buildings that will last for centuries, and intend to keep pace with any institution of the kind in the South. FOREIGN MISSIONS. Rev. W, H. Davis and Rev. M. B. Wharton made a strong appeal in be half of the foreign missionary work of the Church; it was a cause that Bap tists love, and ought to be liberally helped. SUNDAY SCHOOLS. Rev. Dr. Wharton then addressed the assembly on behalf of the State Sunday School work, and subscriptions for winch cause be sent to John H. James, of Atlanta. FEMALE COLLEGE. The Committee on Queries, from the Bottsford Chureli, reported favorably on the erection on the proposed female college. DENOMINATIONAL LINES. In a discussion on the report of the Committee on Sabbath Schools, recom mending Union Sunday, pending the motion to adopt the x*eport of the com mittee on Sunday School, Dr. E. R. Carswell moved to strike out that part of the report in which we say ‘'wo do not ignore” the good resulting from the labors of the “Union Sunday School Convention.” Dr. Carswell sail, as a Baptist association, we were here to attend to the interest of that Associa tion, and not to attend to the business of other institutions, even to the ex tent of a negative endorsement. He believed so far as the general subject was concerned in Baptists sending their children to Baptist Sunday schools, and impressing their hearts, conscien ces and intellects with the grand truths of Christianity, as held by Bap tists. Allother denominations, whether avowing this principle or not, usually acted upon, and, as Baptists, we should in this respect, emulate their example. TEMPERANCE. The Cormnitt&o on Temperance re ported that the Baptist Church had taken high ground on this most impor tant subject, aud recommended in creased effort to carry on the work. After the transaction of some other routine business, at 1 p. m., the Asso ciation adjourned. AFTERNOON SESSION. At 4p. m. the Association met, and was opened with prayer by Rev. W. T. Holmes. On motion, Messrs. A. J. Holmes, J. F. Casson, F. H. Powell, H, Williams and L F. Adkins were appointed a com mittee to choose delegates to the Bap tist Convention of Georgia, and re ported the following names: W. H. Davis, W. L. Kilpatrick, E. R. Cars well, G. W. Evans, A. M. Rodgers, J. O. C. Black, M. B. Wharton,W. J. Rodgers, J. T. Robert, W. T. Holmes. SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION. Rev. J. H. Kilpatrick, by request, made au explanation relative to repre sentation in the Southern Baptist Con vention, and contrasted the system with that of the Georgia State Conven tion. If the Hephzibah Association wanted representation in the Southern Baptist Convention, funds must, be sent direct through the Treasurer of the Association instead of through the State Conveution. Rev. J. T. Robert thought it best to have the subject arranged through a committee of investigation instead of the immediate appointment of dele gates. Dr. E. R. Carswell wanted no postponement of the matter, because it would be more prudent to have dele gates appointed direct from the Asso ciation, to head off any movement lookJ ing to a union of the Southern Baptist Convention with the Northern Baptist Convention. The hour of adjournment having ar rived at 5 p. m., the Association ad journed to 9 a. m. Monday. Remember the little paint shop around, the corner, opposite the post office, and get a sign. It Merchants and others in need of Bunk Books aud Stationery should buy them at the Live Book Store. X am selling at Bottom Prices. Give me a trial before buying elsewhere. A. F. Pendleton. oct24rsuwef3 An Interesting Session. The present session of the Hephzi bah Association is a most interesting one, aud largely attended by our Bap tists friends. Every branch of the ohurch organization is reported upon as being in a healthy condition, al though some portions of the church within the limits of the Association suffer from “ hard times.” The routine proceedings of the second day of the session can be found in another column. The very handsome appear ance of the Fix*st Baptist Church, in which this Association holds its ses sions, was the universal theme of praise, more especially the frescoing, which is of an elaborate character and not surpassed by any other church iu the State. A fine spirit prevailed in the Association, judging from the promptness with which over SSOO was raised for Home Missions. MEETING OF CITIZENS. Nomination of Major Allen for Mayor -Speeches by W. Fred. Eve. H. G. Wright, James Barrett, M P. Fos ter, Dr. M. J. Jones, M. P. Carroll. Salem Dutclier, S. Warren Mays and Others—Resolutions Adopted, Etc. In accordance with the published call, a number of citizens assembled last evening in the Superior Court room. The largest portion of those assembled kept in rear portion of the room. About three hundred persons were present. At 7:30 o’clock, M. J. Jones proposed M. A. Stovall for chairman, and Okas. Harper for Secretary*. The “ayes were rather feeble. The chairman proceeded to the platform and took the chair, and stated that the object of the meeting was well known as set forth in the call, which he read. W. Fred. Eve, Esq., moved that a committee of five be appointed to pre pare business for the meeting. The motion being put. three or four voices answered “aye!” The Chairman named the following gentlemen:* John Phinizy, Salem Duteher, Martin V. Calvin, Louis A. Dugas, Jr., and Josiali Mosher. Mr. Phinizy declined, but the Chair man urged him to stick. Mr. Phinizy still urged his desire to be ex cused/but eventually reluctantly con sented to act. There was some ap plause at this point, in which Eugene Yerdery was quite prominent. The committee retired, and there were loud calls for “Wright!” “Wright!” “Wright!” H. G. Wright then came forward, and in address of a rew minutes, said, in substance, that Mayor Estes had been to the city what Foster Blodgett was when iu office. Those who are opposed to Mr. Estes should band togethei*. This movement will eventually' cause Mr. Estes’ overthrow. Cries for “Barrett” were then made. James Barrett said, although he was not a citizen of Augusta, he would say that it was time to overthrow this man and hurl him from public office. “He has wilfully deceived you about the canal. If you do not hurl him from office ho will eventually demand the houses of the citizens.” Cries were thou made for “Foster.” M. P. Foster said, he shared the sen timents of Mr. Wright. There were older men than they who wore interested iu this movement, and he would rather hear from them. The call was general, and he should not hesitate to express himself. There was gross mismanage ment somewhere, and it ought to be placed on the shoulders it belonged. Had no personal feeling in the matter, and there should be no bitterness in it. It becomes the citizens to speak their sentiments freely aud stop at nothing. Every man should be hurled from office who gave out the original contract. Officials had no right to give out a con tract which lias proved an imposition on the people. (Cries of Harris.) General Harris said he was a citizen of Richmond county’, but not of the city of Augusta, aud asked to be ex cused. (Cries for Myers.) Henry Myers said he was not a pub lic speaker, and therefore asked to be excused from making au address. He favored the movement. Dr. M. J. Jones said when he spoke it stirred up a bitter feeling. He hoped the meeting would prove a success Had been curbed; in fact was “bridled” (“Cut loose the bridle,” cried a voice.) The Mayor and his police had beat me. Tuey lied when they’ said they beat me by two votes. They said “Jones kno.v’dsomething; I don’t know anything.” In less than forty days he would know something. The man who bought votes against him would be beat himself. M. P. Carroll, Esq., said men older than himself should come forward aud ventilate matters. Was ignorant of the present state of the affairs of the city. Was opposed to the present in cumbent for two reasons. ' Knew nothing derogatory to the character of Mayor Estes. To keep Mr. Estes fur ther in public office was against the character of American institutions. Was a Democrat, and opposed to Mr. Estes having the office any longer. Mr. Estes has shown himself incapable of performing the duties of Mayor of such a city as Augusta. He had a city counsellor to draw up papers of a kind to hold the contractor, and has shown mismanage ment. Did not charge any dishonesty or peculation in the discharge of his duties. There should be some scheme on foot to reduce the taxation ; the tax rate was SIOO a head, and $2,000,000 in the aggregate. It was perfectly fearful when it was looked at. Put in nomination a good citizen for Mayor who will be heartily supported. There should be no crimination or re crimination in the discussion of this matter. Do not charge a man with dishonesty unless you can support such a charge by figures and facts. Cast no imputations upon any man unless you can prove it, and then thrust it down his throat until he is choked. Salem Duteher from tho committee, said lie was instructed to make the following report: Under the present administration of the city government of Augusta, tax ation has been greatly increased aud onerous burdens imposed upon citi zens of all classes without any corres ponding benefits, being received, and in particular, the management of the canal enlargement lias been character ized by the grossest extravagance and iucompetency. Iu view of these, facts it is the duty of the citizens of Augusta to protest against any further increase ot the bonded debt of the city. Against the increase of taxation made by the present administration, and against the extravagance which has characterized the ad ministration of Mayor Estes, and to favor the election of some man to the mayoralty pledged to economy, re trenchment, investigation and reform. We call therefore upon ail the citi zens of Augusta, the property owners who are burdened with taxes, and all the laboring men who have been de prived of employment, to aid in the overthrow of an administration which has burthened capital and crushed la bor, and as expressive of the sense of this meeting, recommend the adop tion of tho following resolutions: Resolved, That tho people of Augusta are entitled to a full, detailed and com plete statement of the financial condition of this city; and that experience has shown that the present Mayor either can not or will not furnish such information. Resolved, That, judging the tree by its fruit, i lie administration of tho present Mayor of Augusta is an emphatic failure, and that the nest interests of the city de mand that he shall not be permitted to continue that management for the future whicli has characterized his official course in the past. Resolved, That tho chairman appoint a committee of two from each ward to pre pare an address to the citizens of Augusta. Resolved, That this meeting proceed to the nomination of some citizen for the Mayoralty, ou the broad platform of econ omy, retrenchment, investigation and le form. Mr. Foster said the idea occurred to him that it would be well to have presented to the citizens some argu ments to convince them of the objects of the meeting. He mov ed to include iu the address the name of every member of Council who aided Mr. Estes. [Slight applause.J Salem Duteher said the meeting was not a Ward meeting,iiut in the interest of tho entire city. Did not therefore favor the idea of bringing Ward poli tics into the question. Mr. Foster said Mr. Duteher mistook his intention. He did not want to make Ward nominations, but simply include with Mr. Estes all his coadjutors. He offered to amend the address. S. Warren Mays defended a portion of the Council, especially the action of Dr. Ford. Some confusion ensued at this point, and several gentlemen surrounded Mr. Foster, making suggestions. Mr. Foster still urged his amendment to include those who favored Mr. Estes action. The Chairman put the matter to a vote, and the “ noes ” being much the loudest, a voice cried out “ divis ion,” and considerable laughter ensued. The Chair decided the amendment was lost. Mr. Foster said it was apparent there was strenuous opposition, and he would therefore withdraw his amend ment. The Chairman then put the question on tho report, and the “ ayes ” appear ed quite strong, with a few “ noes.” The Chairman said, a nomination for Mayor was now in order. “Major Al len,” t ied many voices.) M. V. Calvin then moved that Major J. V. H. Allen be placed in nomination for Mayor. The motion was carried amid much applause. Loud calls were made for Major Allen. S. F. Webb moved that a committee be appointed t,o wait on Major Allen and introduce him to the meeting. The chairman announced as the committee, M. V. Calvin, H. G. Wright, L. A. Dugas, Jr., S. F. Webb anti M. P. Foster. The committee then retired. Loud calls were made for Duteher, Duncan, Yerdery, but no one re sponded. The chairman announced the follow ing committees under the resolutions : First Ward, Win. H. Howard, W. J. Rutherford; Second Ward, Henry My ers, Salem Duteher; Third Ward, Jas. Gargan, Zack McCord; Fourth Ward, George W. Conway, Barney Doris. The crowd continued to call for Eve, Duncan, Mays and Yerdery, dwelling particularly strong on the name of the latter. After a lull, the crowd commenced to cry for Gen. Stovall, who arose and said he had a bad sore throat and a cold, and asked to be excused as he was not a public speaker. “Well, you are a public fighter,” cried a voice iu tho rear part of the hall. The crowd amused themselves by crying for a number of persons, but no one re sponded. About 9 o’clock, the committeo re turned and reported they could not find Major Alien, but a person author ized to speak for Major Allen said ho would accept the nomination tendered. The meeting then adjourned. Every business man should have a good sign. E. M. Miller paints them. It Tlie New Christian Cliurclx. The beautiful new edifice of the Christian Church, ou the comer of Greene aud Mclntosh streets, will, it is thought, bo finished in throo weeks. It is by far the most beautiful church edifice in this city ; the cross ou its lofty steeple is one of the prominent objects to be seen as a person ap proaches the city iu any direction. The building is of brick with stone trim mings. The auditorium is 100x40 feet, accommodating 700 persons iu the main floor aud 150 in the gallery. The main entrance on Greene street, is flanked by two side entrances; there is an entrance on Mclntosh street and ouo from tho lecture room. The windows are in stained glass of Cathedral stylo with a large one ar ranged in the shape of a St. Catherine’s wheel in the front portion of the build ing. iu the rear of the pulpit is a very large and beautiful stained glass win dow with a life-sized picture of the Savior and John the Baptist standing in the river Jordan in the act of bap tism. The gas fixtures are very elegant. The organ loft is on the east side of the auditorium, opposite the Mclntosh street, entrance, and some fears have been expressed that tho construction of the loft is faulty; however, the matter will be soon settled, when Mr. Gardner, of New York, erects the organ. The lecture rooms can seat 250 per sons, iu walnut settees, of an im proved pattern, with reversible backs, for the convenience of the Sunday School ceremonies. Both lecture room and auditorium will be heated by furnaces of improved kind. The main tower, in which is to be liuug a bell weighing 3,000 pounds, is on tho right front corner of the building ; it is 189 feet high exclusive of tho rod, surmounted by a gilt cross fourteen feet high. On the opposite front cor ner is the ventilating tower —a modern invention by which the warmth of the rooms is at all times under the absolute control of the sexton — is 100 feet high. On the same lot and immediatly east of the lecture room, with a frontage on Greene street is the parsonage containing seven rooms with all the modern improvements. The house is of pressed brick similar to tho church with gran ite and iron coping, including buttresses. The whole will be sur rounded by au elegant and massive iron railing on a stone foundation. The entire cost is about SIOG,OOO. D. B. Woodruff, architect; W. H. Goodrich, carpenter; T. O. Brown, brick and stone masomy.

All Goods Warranted. oct2i-lt Chambers’ Encyclopaedia is the Book of all books, as it is a library within it self, aud the best authority extant, and the most convenient, reliable and use- j ful compends of knowledge iu exis tence. No description can possibly convey any adequate conception of the ; scope of this literally colossal work, and is eminently worth subscribing for. : oct24-l The Maintenance of Health. —The maintenance of health is often more j difficult than its recovery. Vitiated j conditions of the atmosphere, un- ' healthy occupations, extremes of heal; or cold, and constant exposure to j rough weather, are all so many provoi j cations of disease. There is but one J sure way of effectually guarding the j system when thus subjected to influ- j ences, prejudicial to health, and that. I is to establish, by judicious tonic and \ alterative medication, vigor of the body j and regularity of its functions. The j properties of an invigomnt aud cor- I rective are happily combined in Hos j tetter’s Stomach Bitters, which, at the ! same time that it infuses unwonted ! vitality into the system, overcomes all , tendency of the stomach, liver, bowels ; and urinary organs to deviate from regularity in the discharge of functions ! upon which the welfare of the entire j physical organization is dependent. Health cannot bo more effectually j maintained than by using the Bitters, ■! ocl9-eodlw. Discovered.— Dr. Price has, after a | long series of experiments, discovered anew process of extracting tho subtle flavor from every delicious fruit and aromatic. In his Flavoring Extracts the characteristic taste and freshness * of the real fruit is preserved, and by hß?process so highly concentrated that but a small quantity is required to im; part their peculiar flavor to any article iu which they may be used. Ladies that wish something superior in the j way of flavoring extracts or baking power should purchase Dr. Price’s, for we can assure them that they have no equals.
