MINOR LOCALS.
The beautiful weather continues.
The Augusta Jockey Club meet on
Monday.
Gazelle Steam Fire Engine Company
were out for parade yesterday.
The Planters Hotel will be officially
re-opened about next Thursday.
Wm. E. Bendell, a quarrelsome indi
vidual, was fined 35 and costs, by the
Recorder, yesterday.
Company A, Oglethorpe Infantry,
hold a street parade, in full uniform, at
three o’clock on Monday afternoon.
Where is Major Morrison? A sub
scriber complains that the crossing on
the west side of Reynolds and Mclntosh
street is almost impassable.
There will be a meeting of the “Rich
mond Rifle Club” on to-morrow evening
at the Hall of Company A, to arrange
matters connected with their new
range.
The understanding about the Chis
tian church dedication is, that Rev. J.
S. Lamar the former pastor will preach
the last sermon in the old building on
Reynolds street in December, and the
new church will be dedicated on the
first Sunday in January.
“As to opening oysters,” said Old
Hurricane, “ why, nothing’s easier, if
you only know how.” “ And how’s
how ?” inquired Straight. “ Scotch
snuff,” answered Old Hurricane, very
sententiously ; “ Scotch snuff; bring a
little of it ever so near their noses and
they’ll sneeze their lids off.”
Rats that live in granaries are said
by a professional rat-catcher not to be
poisonous, while those that feed on
refuse meat inflict painful wounds.
This is another argument in favor of
the vegetarian theory, and every pious
family should keep a granary.
James Wylie has played seven
thousand nine hundred and forty-four
games of checkers in a year ! Thirty
two were lost, four hundred and nine
ty-five drawn; the balance were all
victory. This may be called decidedly
home occupation. But John Kenny,
the celebrated shirt maker, has won a
greater victory than that. His perfect
fitting shirts are all the rage, and Mr.
Kenny’s patterns are ahead of all
others. Give him a call and be satis
fied.
A telegram arrived in this city last
evening, which stated that a special train
of six cars, filled with race horses, will
leave Charlotte, N. C., this morning for
Augusta, to attend the races this week.
The stables of Barton & Meddinger, L.
A. Hitchcock, W. R. Babcock, Burch &
Walker, Major Thos. G. Bacon, and
others, are represented by these horses.
Mr. Eldridge R. Bellam is to be uni
ted in Marriage to Miss Mattie W. How
ard, at the First Baptist Church, on the
23d inst.; also we hear it reported that
Mr. E. Gaines Tidwell, the popular and
efficient prescription clerk at Dr. Tay
lor’s drug store, is to launch off Tues
day night.— Atlanta Herald.
Such notices as the above are what
we call progressive journalism ad nau
seam. It is time enough to note the
fact of marriage. But when journals
get to announcing the names of private
individuals, it is, to say the least, very
questionable taste, and should be
stopped.
Our Ordinary had better begin to
brush up his licenses for cupid is going
to do some promiscuous shooting
around here soon, if old dame rumor
don’t lie again. Young men don’t stay
at their dulcina’s houses ’til twelve
o’clock at night only on business.—

There are several cases of the same
disease in Augusta.
Mr. Heard’s Funeral.
Yesterday morning, the funeral of
Stephen D. Hear and took place from his
late residence, No. 177 Telfair street.
Webb and Social Lodges, F. and A. M.,
attended in a body, numbering about
one hundred, and were fit representa
tives of that noble fraternity. A large
number of the friends of the late Mr.
Heard attended the religious services,
which were conducted by the Rev. Dr.
Wharton, of the First Baptist Church.
At 11 o’clock the funeral procession
formed, while “Big Steve” tolled sol
emnly. The following gentlemen acted
as pall-bearers : Judge Gibson, Past
Master, Hon. Charles Estes, Past Mas
ter, Otis G. Lynch, B. B. Russell, Wm.
Hardeman, Dr. I. P. Garvin, Worship
ful Master John S. Davidson, of Webb
Lodge, and Josiah Mosher.
On the top of the coffin rested gifts
of beautiful flowers, while around the
edge was a border of geranium leaves.
The procession proceeded to the ceme
tery, where the concluding ceremonies,
according to Masonic usage, were most
solemnly performed under the direction
of Samuel F. Webb, Esq., S. W., of
Social Lodge, No. 1, F. and A. M. It
was originally intended that Judge
Gould should conduct the concluding
services, but while he was able to at
tend the funeral, his health would not
permit his officiating.
True as Gospel.
We copy from the Edgefield Adver
tiser the following complimentary no
tice of a well known Augusta printer:
We were much pleased to see in Edge
field a few days back, and In our office, our
esteemed friend, Mr. E. H. Pughe, of Au
gusta. As our people already know, Mr.
Pughe is at the head of one of the largest
and finest book and job printing establish
ments in the South—on Jackson street,
Augusta. From this concern may be had,
at shortest notice and in unsurpassable
style, ledgers, cash, day, letter, copying,
receipt, memorandum and all other kinds
of blank books. Mr. Pughe is an English
man and a practical printer, and brings
in’o business life in America all the level
headed sagacity and tenacity of John Bull.
Ia addition to the business referred
to above, Mr. Pughe has assumed the
business management of this paper,
by the retirement of H. C. Stevenson.
No one in the State is better calculated
“to fill the bill,” and our paper has
been fortunate in securing his very
valuable experience.
Runaway.
An old gentleman, driving a pair of
horses attached to a phaeton, came
near meeting with an accident yester
day in Campbell street. The horses
became frightened, and started on a
dead run up Campbell street. By the
prompt action of a stalwart colored
man, who ran into the street and
stopped the horses, an accident was
averted.
Broad Street Notes.
Of the many haudsoma stores that
grace Broad street, none offer any
greater attractions to passers-by than
the jewelry store of F. A. Brahe & Cos.,
on the southwest corner of Broad and
Mclntosh streets. The display in the
windows offer a study for an artist.
The blending of color and the grouping
of many objects of art in these win
dows, draw a great deal of attention;
and the interest is heightened by a
visit to the interior of the store,
where can be found a stock rich,
rare and reasonable in price. This
house is one of the oldest in Augusta.
F. A. Brahe came to Augusta in 1832
as watchmaker for Clark & Cos. In
1842, he established a business of his
own, which he carried on till 1868,
when he admitted G. G. Leonhardt and
H. A. Brahe as partners into the busi
ness, under the name of F. A. Brahe &
Cos. From this time, the business was
conducted by the resident partners,
Mr. F. A. Brahe having retired to Ger
many, until the death of Mr. Leon
hardt, when the entire business went
into the hands of the surviving part
ner, H. A. Brahe, under whose name
the business is now carried on.
Among the many beautiful articles,
we observed a large amount of sterling
silver ware, some of it in sets of sixty
five pieces, and valued at 3350. The
stock of silver plated ware is very ex
tensive, and in fact every article inci
dental to the business, can be found at
this ,store.
By the steamer “Russia,” H.A. Brahe
& Cos. have just received a large stock
of English watches, ranging in price
from 3130 to 3350. These watches are
their own importation. The firm has
also ordered a largo amount of fancy
goods from Germany, which Vill be en
tered through our new Custom House.
In all well regulated communities,
where intelligence is the rule, one of
the most important adjuncts is a well
ordered periodical and newspaper
store, where can always be found the
latest novel or newspaper. Of the
many stores on Broad street, none have
earned a name which it is better en
titled to, than the establishment of A.
F. Pendleton (successor to Quinn &
Pendleton), designated as “the live
book store of Augusta.” This store
was established just after the close of
the late war by Mr. D. Quinn. Several
years ago, Mr. A. F. Pendleton became
a partner with Mr. Quinn, and about
the first of September last, he pur
chased Mr, Quinn’s entire interest,
thereby becoming sole proprietor.
Here can be found, in addition to news
papers and periodicals, blank books
and general stationery, school and col
lege text books, and a variety of fancy
goods. The proprietor is a gentleman
of intelligence, and having a corps of
assistants, it is not strange to note Is
doing a fine business.
Augusta Exchange.
One of the liveliest meetings that
has ever taken place in the history of
the Augusta Exchange, came off yes
terday. For some time past, consider
able dissatisfaction has been expressed
by some members, on account of the
style of reporting the call of stocks at
1 p. m., daily. It culminated at a special
meeting hastily called yesterday for
the prompt correction of the evil com
plained of. An acrimonious debate
took place between two of the mem
bers, one gentleman attacking the style
of quoting stocks, and the other gen
tleman as warmly defending it.
Oil was poured on the troubled
waters by the action of C. H. Phinizy,
Esq., who offered the following resolu
tion, which was almost unanimously
adopted:
That only the actual sales of bonds and
stocks and prices of which they are offered
for sale be furnished the press lor publica
tion.”
Amusements.
The Berger-Russell troupe gained
fresh laurels at the matinee and even
ing performances yesterday. Miss
Anna Berger had fortunately recovered
from her indisposition of the night
previous, and her solos on the cornet
were very fine indeed. She is a lady of
extraordinary talent, and always re
ceives deserved applause. Professor
Anderson as a leader is thorough in his
line, and is ably assisted by Fred. Ber
ger, Henry Berger and Misses Haddock
Etta Morgan and Jennie Titus. The
brass instrumentalization of these la
dies is remarkable, and must be heard
to be appreciated. The charming An
nio Morgan, with her beautiful singing,
received several encores, each song
being of a character to delight the au
dience. Asa ballad singer, she should
be ranked among the very best. Sol
Smith Russell gave an entire change
of programme, and shouts of laugh
ter and applause greeted him.—
His impersonations of the “ Old Maid
in Love,” and the “School Boy’s Com
position on a' Hoss,” were perfect
master pieces of satire. The matinee
performance was attended by the
largest audience that was over gather
ered in the Opera House.
Personal.
Rev. Father Butler, the Pastor of the
Jesuit Church of the Sacred Heart,
honored us with a call yesterday. Ho
is looking well after his peiila on the
sea.

Port Royal Naval Station.
Naval Constructor Isaiah Hanscom,
U. S. N., has just visited Port Royal
with a view to making arrangements
for the accommodation of a large num
ber of war vessels. Capt. Hanscom is
attached, in a confidential way, to the
Navy Department at Washington, and
remarkod to a gentloman yesterday
that there would no doubt bo nearly
twenty vessels of war ordered to ren
dezvous at Port Royal within two
weeks.
By making Port Royal a Naval Sta
tion, and using Southern coal in the
United States steamers, which can be
obtained of the best quality in North
Georgia, Eastern Alabama and Tennes
see, it will create new avenues of indus
try, and incidentally benefit this part
of the South. Mr. Robeson, Secretary
of the Navy, has promised to have the
matter examined into, and if the qual
ity of coal is passed on’favorably by a
Board of Engineers; will order a sup
ply of it to be sent to Port Royal at
onoe.

Tho Coming Election.
Thero seems to be very little interest
as to candidates for Members of Council
in three.of the Wards of the city, viz :
First, Second and Third, though it may
bo the workings are quiet in those
Wards. In the Fourth Ward, some
eight or nine names are announced in
our columns this morning, as fyllows :
M. E. Hill, C. Y. Walker, E. 111. Pughe,
G. W. Conway, J. H. Parker, M. J.
Jones, W. H. Foster, B. Doris, with
others not yet brought out. The inter
ests of the Fourth Ward ate greater
than any other in the city, cm account
of the large territory compiled in its
limits. It demands men who wlii be
representative, working assiduously for
the best interests of tho Ward, irre
spective of cliques or parties. Let the
voters see to it that none but men who
will do their whole duty and pay strict
attention to their sworn duties shall be
sent to tho Council Chamber as repre
sentatives of the glorious old Fourth.

Negro Shot.
Yesterday afternoon a negro named
Miller stole a bag full of cotton and
corn in the lower part of the c*ity. The
thief was making off with his plunder
when the owner also a negro came up
and demanded a surrender of the stolen
property. Miller not only i’ofused to
surrender, but assaulted the owner,
who in self defence shot him in the leg.
Assistance being procured tho thief
was arrested and placed in jail.
Wlio’s tlie Judge S'
We learn from parties who were at
the West Point Depot at the upward
passage of the train on Saturday last,
that Cres&e Combs, of this county, con
victed of the murder of Manse Newell,
colored, and sentenced to the; peniten
tiary for three years, was on board,
heavily ironed and in charge of an
officer. — \Newnan Herald. T i
We would like to get the name
of the Judge who passed sentence in
above case for murder. We know
this—that under the law of Georgia
the punishment for murder can be but
in two ways—death or imprisonment
for life.

INCREDULITY.
HOW potent is this trait of the human
mind. The Bible refers to it and
says: “Were an angel to come down from
heaven, ye would not believe.” It is the
cause of much injury. We are disposed to
doubt the sincerity of our best friends, and
so lar is it indulged, that it often leads to
misanthropy.
This Is particularly applicable to the vir
tues of many truly valuable remedial
agents, however strong they mav be en
dorsed.
Reader, if you have Dyspepsia, Fever
and Ague, Sick Headache, Torpid Liver,
Bilious Colic, Kidney Disease, Flatulence,
Constipation of the Bowels or General De- •
bility, and hesitate to use Dr. Tutt’s Liveii
Pills, write to him and he will furnish you
with hundreds of certificates from the
most reliable men and women in the coun
try, who have been cured by them, of whom
you can make direct inquiry. It will cost
you but a postage stamp. The proprietor
solicits the investigation of all who need a
truly valuable medicine.
