S. A. Powell & Cos. will soou open a dry goods store at No. 212 Broad street. In consequence of the raiu, the Rich mond Rifle Club postponed their shoot ing until this morning. The sudden change of the weather yesterday, made overcoats and fires a desirable luxury. It was reported that yesterday after noon that a little girl fell into the river, but was fished out by a negro. D. P. Foulds, of Louisville, Ky., the well known music publisher, has sent us a copy of the “Ivlauber Polka,” arranged for the piano by Paul L. Dreher. A darkey undertook to hold a calf by the tail,-but the calf kicked him under the chin, which made him let go tail-holt, and got loose. The rush for Florida has set in along with winter. Eighty passengers ar rived at Fernandina by one steamer, and a single train brought into Jack sonville over a hundred strangers. When a man has been courting a girl for about fourteen years, and finds her sitting at the piano singing, ‘-Darling, I am growing old,” he should consider his opportunities and the shortness of life. We noticed at the Georgia Railroad depot a mammoth pumpkin, weighing 75 pounds, which was raised near At lanta. It was sent here for J. A. Rob ert, the general ticket agent of the Georgia Railroad. Balzac says that Parisian ladies have a genius for graceful walking, and seem to imprint in the fold of their robe the mold of their tiny feet When an Eng lish or German lady attempts this step, he states, “they have the air of a grena dier marching en evant to attack a redoute.” Why shall the advertising be all on the side of the supplier? Many and many a person has come to cur office to inquire where he can find, or how he can get, some little or great thing, say ing that he has inquired everywhere for it. Sometimes we ask them why they do not look in their newspaper for*it; for just what they want is ad vertised there in plain sight, day after day, or now and then a day. Often we assure them that two or three lines in the paper, making known their wants, and telling where they may be ad-' dressed, will in a few days, sometimes in a day, bring to their door, in every variety, just what they have spent much time and money in vain inquiries about. We have repeatedly received hearty thanks for putting people upon this, to them, new and cheap way of supplying peculiar wants. The time has come when wise, prudent and wide awake people are making fortunes by advertising promptly their wants. Election of School Trustees. To-day, the election for School Trus tees occur in the different wards of the city and districts of the county. There appeals to be no competition in the matter, and it is not unlikely that the present Board will be re-elected. No complaint has been made against the present members, and Madame Rumor has not whispered the names of auy new candidates. We know of one gen tleman who was asked to become a candidate in one of the city wards, but he declined, saying he was going to support the gentleman who occupies the position. Valuable Property for Sale. According to an advertisement in this day’s paper, the valuable property of the late N. B. Moore is offered for sale. The farm near Augusta is a most valuable one. It is a model in every respect, for Mr. Moore was not onlv a thriftv man, but one who knew how to make tillage a perfect system. We venture to say that no tract of land in the South has been more high ly cultivated, and if there is another farm as neatly equipped and kept in as thorough order we have not seen it or heard of it. There will be great competition for this property. It was the source of much revenue to its late owner and his grass culture was un surpassed, beating cotton out of sight. We trust that it may fali into the hands of somebody who will take the „ ltne pride in it that Mr. Moore did. THE COURTS. Superior Court, nox, william gibson, presiding. Court Officers. —Sheriff, C. H. Sibley ; Clerk, S. H. Crump ; Bailiffs, Erwin Hicks, T. C. Dortic, li. W. Rugg and M. i T. Deween. November *. The case of Alphestus Tilley, charged j with voluntary manslaughter, was ' brought to close about 2p. m. Judge | Twiggs, for the prisoner, made an ad ! dress of over an hour claiming that his client did no more than he was au thorized to do under the law. He was in fear of his life, and acted on that ground in self-defence. Judge McLaws, for the prosecution, followed in an able address. Judge Gibson charged the jury in a brief manner, leaning consid erably towards the theory of the de fence, that Tilley was in fear of his life. The jurv were out about two hours, and came in with a verdict acquitting the prisoner. The cases of Carter Smith, indicted for assault with intent to murder, aud John D. Hays, charged with murder, was continued until the adjourned term. Next week, the civil calendar will be taken up. Augusta Jockey Club Races. The races on the 21th bid fair to prove of great interest. Several horses, are now at the track iu training; two ar rived this morning from Detroit, and daily arrivals inay safely be expected until the commencement of the races, assurances having been received from several prominent racing men that they will surely be on hand with their stables of flyers to take a hand. There is no doubt but that there will be plenty of fine and fast horses at the meeting, and it is to be hoped that the Club and citizens generally will aid by coming forward with the funds to* pay the purses. A large crowd of visitors is expected and the finest races in this part of Georgia since the war, are look ed for. The following are the entries—two year old slakes, mile dash: NOMINATIONS. 1.

A regular meeting of the Board of Managers of the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children was held at the rooms of the society, No. BGO Broadway, yesterday afternoon. Cue of the worst cases reported was that of a little boy, seven years old, named Frank Hudson. At the exami nation iu this case, four witnesses tes tified that the boy’s father beat him unmercifully with a cane, threw him down on the stone pavement, severely cutting his face, and injuring his left eye in such a manner as to disfigure him for life, and finally threw him into a barrel of water, nearly drowning him. The inhuman parent was arrested and hold for trial, and the child was sent to the Roman Catholic Protectory. The Secretary called the attention of the Board to the fact that a number of complaints had been made to the sof ciety of the employment of children o tender age at some of the theatres iu this city as acrobatic aud trapeze per formers. and that it was the opinion of many of our most eminent physicians that such practices are cruel aud in jurious to the health of the children. It, was further stated that iu many of the theatres there was nothing used to guard against accidents, as required by law. The matter was referred to a committee, with full power. A letter was road, contradicting a statement made in one of the weekly papers to the effect that children of Catholics had been sent to the Five Points Mission. In contradiction of that statement extracts from the re cords were read, showing that such children had been sent to the Roman Catholic Protectory, and not to the Five Points Mission. The records of the society are open to the inspection of the public. Amusements. The company who perform, under the title of “Salsbury’s Troubadours,” ap peared at the Opera House last night. The performance commenced with the farce, “Sailing Under False Colors,” and it was performed with great spirit. The extravagancies of Martha Bunn, Nellie McHenry, and Sam Winkler, Oliver Wren, kept the house in a roar of laughter. Then followed “Patch work,” patterned after the perform ance of the Yokes Family. The plot is as follows: “Some servants, at 7:30 a. in., amuse themselves by imitating a masquerade which had taken place in their master’s house the night be fore—taking possession of the dresses used on that occasion, they dress themselves according to their several fancies, and proceed to act, sing and dance in accord with their natural in clination, but with duo regard for dra matic properties.” There are but six characters in the piece, and it was a lively performance, there not being a dull moment from the beginning to the close. Salsbury’s performance was very pleasurable, es pecially his imitations of Booth, Joe Jefferson, J. W. Wallack, Char lotte Cushman and other stage celebrities. Gertie Granville and Nel lie McHenry danced and sung with great acceptability. The take-off on the Teak Family was very funuy, but the “local hits” of the Centennial Quartette might have been left out sometimes The complimentary reference to Mayor Estes was received with shouts of ap plause, or, in the vernacular, “brought down the house.” To-night, the Trou badours appear iu the comedy of “ Little Mother ” and “ Patchwork.” They deserve a better house than they had last night. Corned Beef. Mr. Lawrence, at the Lower Market, has our thauks for a splendid specimen of corned beef. We know of nothing more toothsome at this season, es pecially when it comes from an artist like Mr. Lawrence. Serenade. The Augusta Brass Band, uuder the leadership of Edward Hett, were out serenading last night, and favored some of our citizens with very fine music. Among those called on were Mayor Estes, Col. Thos. Barrett, Chief Srnythe and Assistant Chief Robie, of the Fire Department, and Captain R. J. Wilson. Schools in Paris • The great majority of boys in Pails are boarders in a school or lycee. The lycee is a State establishment. Some in Paris, the greater number, take boarders, some do not; two especially are in the latter class, the Lycee Fon tanes, in the Rue Caumartin, close to the St. Lazaire Railway Station, and the Lycee- Charlemagne, in the Rue St. Antoine. But in all of them, whether they take boarders or not, there is twice a day a class of two hours’ dura tion, which is presided over by Univer sity professors, and which is attended by the boarders of the lycee, or those of private schools. These classes iu ciude In their curriculum of education, Greek, Latin, mathematics, the modern languages, &c. They are divided in a number of forms, through which the boy is expected to pass successively. The lycees of Paris being only nine in number, and all therboys who want to get an education having to attend them, it follows that each form includes by far too large a number of bo}’s for the Professor to do justice to them; each of them Includes, In fact, aboutsixty boys. But I will leave aside to-day that part of the subject, which uould require a great many explanations, and will re turn to it some other day. I only wish to call your attention to the physical part of our system of education. It is the same both in private schools and lycees, so that I may describe the one or the other, with the only exception that the boys boarding in schools have to walk over to the lycee four times a day, whatever may be the state of the weather. Boys get up in all our schools at 5:30, both Winter and Summer. They sleep in large dormitories, including usually some forty to fifty beds—l know of some even larger ones; each bed is about half a yard to a yard dis tant from the neighboring one, and is not surrounded by curtains. Each dormitory is under the charge of one maitre d’etude, or usher, usually called in schools the pion ; the class maitres d'etude belong to is a sham for most of our schools. Exactly as 5:30 strikes, a porter comes to the door of the dormi tory and rings a large bell; in lycees a man with a drum comes and beats that. Boys are allowed half an hour to wash and dress; in many schools they are still obliged to come down in the court yard to wash. It was always the case when I was at school in Paris, and I remember many a time when we had to break the ice in winter to get a little water. It is the only time during the day that a boy approaches a lavatory. At 6 they go into what are called the studies, long rooms with desks. Each boy is expected then to prepare his lessons for the classes at the lycee. This study continues till 8 o’clock. Then breakfast. The breakfast in French schools usually consists of a kind of soup. Do not fancy it is any thing like what you call soup in Eng land; no, it is merely a kind of greasy water, iu which are soaked a few pieces of bread, and to which is added a piece of bread without any butter or any thing else. On the whole the breakfast may be said to consist merely of bread alone, as the soup is so bad none of the boys ever taste it; at least so it was in my school days, and some young friends of mine tell me it is the same to-day. After, and even during breakfast, as you are not ex pected to eat your bread in the refec tory, there is a recreation of Half an hour’s duration; then you are off to the lycee. After returning from college, you go back agaiu to study for one or two "hours, as the case may be; then comes the dinner, usually composed of one dish of meat and one of vegetables, no dessert except on Thursdays and Sundays; on Friday, fish and vegeta bles; drink in abundance—namely, wine mixed with water. In most schools, and they are all about the same as to price of boarding. It is such an abom inable drink—the wiue being so bad that the boys drink only water. After dinner, recreation lasting one hour, then oif to the lycee again. On coining back, lunch, a mere morsel of bread, half an hour’s recreation, then study again till 8 o’clock, when supper is served, usually consisting of cold meat or vegetables. Then to bed at 8:30. Such is the life led by our boys at school. During the whole day. from 5:30 in the morning to 8:30 at night, they are constantly at work, excepting two hours’ recreation, and by reckoning the time employed by the meals aQd the walk to the lycee, three hours and a half at the outside. At any rate, you will say, they make it up during recre ation hours by violent exercises and games. Not in the least. In most schools they have no room. In lycees the court yards are large enough, but then remember they accommodate 1,200 boarders each. Besides, our boys won’t play. I remember the time, in my first school days, that such games were still going on during play hours; but they gradually disappeared even before I left school, and that has been constant ly going on. Our precocious boys, I hear, spend now their play hours loung ing by groups in a corner of the court yard, discussing, at twelve years of age, the merits of some horse In the next race, or the abili y and the talent of this or that actor or actress. On Thursday there is a half-holiday ; it is employed in a promenade. The boys go out two by two, forming a long procession, or three by three in clerical schools - they say out of three there is always a sneak, hence the custom —under the guidance of an usher ; and they walk about the streets of Paris. In the first years of my school life we used to be taken either to a public garden or to the fields in the neighborhood of Paris, and left free to disport ourselves ; but this practice has been discontinued, and the promenade is merely now a walk through the streets or along the quays, and such tiring work it is that I know many a boy who courts punish ment in order to escape it. But, you will say, do not the schoolmaster and his family take their meals or mix with the boys? Never ; and this I consider one of the greatest drawbacks of our system. —[English Paper. Beautiful Monuments. Passing by the extensive marble works of Theodore Markwalter, at No. 121 Broad street, our attention was at tracted to a beautiful monument of Italian marble. On inquiry, we ascer tained it is to be placed over the grave of the late W. J. Vason. The base is of granite, and the top of the structure is fourteen feet from the ground. The shaft is ornamented with drapery, and two vases of flowers, cut iu a most artistic manner, rest at the base. Avery beautiful head stone has just been finished, and is to be placed, next week, over the grave of Mrs. S. Marcus, in the Hebrew Cemetery. It is of pure Carrara marble, and a hand appears coming out of a cloud, pointiug up ward. Three urns rest on top of the stone, one covered with drapery. Mr. Markwalter showed us designs for two monuments, which will be put in hand soon. One is for No. 3 Engine, and represents a fire plug with hose and pipe attached, while a fire cap with the figure “3” on its front, is placed on top of the monument. The other de sign is for a plain spire monument of the lonic order, to be erected over the grave of Governor Cumming. There has been considerable com plaint lately of irregularity of the “heavy mail” from the North; tbe con sequence is, that we do not get our New York papers with any degree of promptness. We do not, however, at tribute any blame to the Augusta Post Office. “Heal Thyself.”— The IV le’e Com mon Sense Medical Adviser, a book of about 900 pages, illustrated v; th over 250 engravings aud colored plates and sold at the exceedingly low price of $i 50, tells you how to cure Catarrh, “Liver complaint,” Dyspepsia, or Indigestion, Sick, Bilious, and other Headaches, Scrofula Bronchial, Throat and Lung Diseases: ill diseases peculiar to women, and most o.her chronic as -well as acute disorders.

Great Popularity,— Dr. Puce’s Cream Baking Powder and True' Flavoring Extracts, Nectarine, Rose, Lemon, etc., have been before the public many years, and have gained for themselves, on their own merits, an extensive sale. Their great popularity is mainly due to the scrupulous manner in which they are prepared, the using of the purest and best materials, with special refer ence to their healthfulness. We never tire of using them, for they are always the same. Articles in which they are used have no disagreeable odor or sickly taste, but are always enjoyable. nov2-tuthsasuf D|agging Out Existence.— The ner vous, weekly invalid does not enjoy life, but merely “ drags out existence,” as the phrase is. Unfitted for the ac tive pursuits of life, and incapable of partaking of its pleasures to which health alone can give a zest; disin clined to social intercourse and a prey to melancholy, the valetudinarian is in deed an object of pity. Yet there is nothing in all this that cannot be rem edied by that genial alterative tonic and nervine, Hostetter’s Stomach Bit ters, which supplies sufficient stamina, braces the nervous system and over comes those bodily irregularities to which nervous weakness is most fre quently attributable. Diseases of the kidney and bladder, imperfect diges tion and uterine troubles are fertile sources debility Their eradication, however, becomes a matter of certain ty when Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters are systematically used for that pur pose. The Bitters likewise annihilate and prevent fever and ague and other debilitating febrile complaints of a ma larial nature. nov2-eodcf Dyspepsia. —Americans are articully subject to this disease and its effects; such as Sour Stomach, Sick Headache, Habitual Costiveuess, Heartburn, Wa ter-brash, coming up of the food, coat ed tongue, disagreeable taste iu the mouth, Palpitation of the Heart, and all diseases of the Stomach and Liver.

In view of the many prophesies of a class of “ croakers,” who are always foretelling something unpleasant, it is satisfactory to note tiie situation of affairs. True it is, that the volume of business transacted has not been large, in comparison with that of last year. A retrospect of the week shows a better feeling at the close than at the be ginning. Business men. for some time, have been taking in all their light canvas, and when the “Judgment Day.” (November 4th), predicted by tho croaking prophet*, came, every preparation had been made to meet it, and the commercial ships weather ed the gale. Stocks have been kept down to a point commensurate with a demand based on safe credits, and with but two exceptions, all paper maturing has been promptly met. Agents from the great commercial centres have been anxious to sell, but the trade have not been anxious to buy. In Cotton, there has been a very good de mand, at slightly easier prices. It appears to be the belief of the majority that it has reached not far from its lowest point; hence,tactors are not as quite free sellers as they were last week. The stock on hand has increased 10,000 bales, as shown by the count this evening. [From the New York Bulletin, Nov. 2d ] 'i ho absorbing feature during the week under reviews has been the progress and culmination of the October “squeeze.” This “corner" has, to a certain extent, proven the most successful one undertaken for years, and for the last six days of the month the contest was narrowed down to a few of the must powerful operators, who have fought each other hour by hour and fraction by fraction to the bitter end. There also appeared to be a tittle personal feeling now' and then shown toward the close, and we have received hints of broken faith, causing a somewhat sharper tono to the strife than was necessary, all circum stances considered. That portion of the trade who were not from ne cessity forced into the speculative move ment have found business almost com pletely paralyzed, especially so on the sales of actual cotton. The most impera tive wants have in a few cases compelled small purchases for spinning, but buyers who could hold off were not very likely to handle cotton at lf 4 c. per pound more than it wis offered at one week ahead, and the principal demand has been for speculative u-e The necessities of tho “ shorts ” and the delay iu anticipated arrivals from the South have resulted in the bringing into this market of cotton from almost any point at which it could be reached, and the gross receipts have included parcels from Baltimore, Philadelphia and Boston. The final deliveries were very liberal, indeed unusually so, but everything offered was taken and held off the market, for the time being at least, and quite a number of oper ators unable to secure stock were compelled to settle under the rule. There appeared to be an idea prevalent at the close that while the rate had been materially advanced during the month— from 1213-16 up to 14%c—and the “squeeze” perfect and general, the actual profit was an extremely doubtful issue between the opposing interests, the free deliveries to spec.dative operators who did not want the cotton and c.mld onlv sell at a decline, be ing considered an offset to the advance in rates. An extension of operations into the present month and another corner for No vember were among the probabilities hint ed at, t hough at the present writing all op erators appear to be taking a sort of breathing spell after the recent severe struggle. The running count of stock nt this port lias run up pretty full du ing the week, but the amount of this available cannot be determined for some time with any degree of accuracy. A portion is quite sure to remain locked up on speculative operations, and there is also a claim that very considerable amounts will also go abroad. Exporters have re ceived some on direct operations in a spec ulative way, and, it is said, will also be come the possessors of a good many lots which they agreed to take off the hands of such “bulls” asjmiglit be loaded up, the rate to be fixed a large fraction below the nomi nal value of “spots.” Tills theory is well supported by strong indications of com paratively free shipments at an early day, and the fact that scarcely anything lias been bought from sample. 8o thoroughly have the local issues monopolized attention, tho general influ ences in the absence of anything positively startling were seldom referred to. T lie re ceipts at the ports have run pretty full, and stocks show an accumulation both on the seaboard and in the interior, while the weather, as reported from most points, was favorable, and picking progressing very well. There was, however, rather less inclination to talk “bearish” than a month ago, and while the change of opinion was not radical, a great many operators com mence to think that cotton may possibly have reached a good fair selling value. This is based on the bo ief that a market can now be found for all goods, anti that the old surplus is sufficiently out of the way to afford an outlet for fresh produc tion, without further shrinking values.
