Frank Andrews, of this city, a very young and intelligent tinsmith, has patented a portable Sand Pump, in vented for the purpose of pumping sand and dirt from bored wells, and also for cleaning dug wells of all kinds. Many bored wells fill up with sand, and by having this small pump to draw up the sand and clean the well, it will avoid the expense and trouble of having another well bored. This pump will clean to any depth. It is a most valu able invention. Yesterday’s Races. The extra races at the Fair Grounds yesterday were well atended and gave great satisfaction. The weather was all that could be desired, and Messrs. Barton & Medinger under whose di rection the races were held, are en titled to praise for their excellent man agement.

We have, from time to time, com mended Prof, Derry’s recent work. The following high and merited tribute from the pen of one of our most vener ated and distinguished citizens is, most cheerfully, made public: I have carefully examined Prof. Joseph T. Derry’s “History of the United States for Schools and Academies,” and can truly say that It is remarkably well adapted to the purpose for which it is intended, and the best with which I am acquainted. I therefore cheerfully recommend it to parents. L. A. Dugas, M. D., LLD. Arrested For Arson. After the fire in Jerry Bunch’s kitch en, on Friday night, Chief of Police, Christian, was satisfied the premises had been fired by incendiaries, and he ordered the arrest of two negro women who answer to the names of Maria Red and Kittie Pascol. It appears from the statement of Mrs. Bunch that she discovered the fire before the flames had a chance to get under way. The women, it is sus pected, set the place on fire in order to prevent the marriage of Mattie Ed wards, the cook employed by Mrs. Bunh, to a “ cullud gemmen,” whom they, were both in love with. Chief Christian discovered some of the weddiDg finery in the quarters of the woman Red. The two incendaries have been Committed to jail by direc tion of County Judge Snead, and the matter will be judicially examined into next Thursday. Under the law, this case is arson in the first degree, the punishment for which is death. The. women partially confessed their crime. Amusements. The world-renowned troupe of Ja panese Jugglers [will be here on the 2d, 3d and 4th of December, and the magnificent posters announcing the event, draw general attention. The Atlanta Herald thus speaks of them: • The Royal Troupe of Japanese Jugglers aud Balancers will give a grand matinee for the benefit of the ladies and litt’e folks. We can assure our readers, both from per sonal observation and the notices given this troupe hy our exchanges, that it is the very best that ever traveled in this coun try. The feats of balancing are simply marvellous, and the juggling of Gangero almost makes us doubt our own eyesight. For instance, he takes a common spinning top, throws it into the air, and makes it alight on a silk thread that is stretched across the stage. Tho top, spinning with incredible speed, balances itself on the thread, spins down its whole length and back again to Gangero’s hand. The feats with the bamboo are just as wonderful, and will not be believed by those who do not see them. We guarantee that all who take their children to the dlatinee this afternoon will be more than pleased, and the little ones will be filled with wonder and with joy for a month to come. It is a show that we commend heartily and without reserve, and withal one that w e may not see the like of for years to come. To undertake the enumeration of the special attractions would be a work of supererogation. The box balancing, box pyramid, screen balanc ing, slide rope and top spinning, and in fact the wnole performance is one array of startling and wonderful feats. The balanc ing and equipoisation of this troupe are past the realization of the human mind. You see it, then you rub your eyes and look again, and behold, something still more wonderful. MUNICIPAL. Club Meetings in the First and Third Wards—The Ballot in the Fourth Ward —Hon. Charles Estes Accepts the Nomination for Mayor. First Ward. The Club met at Gazelle Engine House, at 7 o’clock, Hon. Jno. U. Meyer, President, in the Chair. The Chairman stated the object of the meeting to be the nomination of members of Council from that ward. The first business in order, however, was the election of officers of the Club for the ensuing year. On motion, the old officers were re elected by acclamation. H. Clay Foster, Esq., moved that the present members of Council from the First Ward—Messrs. John U. Meyer, George R. Sibley and Jas. F. Thompson —be nominated by acclamation. Objection was made to this, and Mr. Foster stating that he desired every one to have an opportunity to express his preference, withdrew the motion and moved that the meeting proceed to ballot, which motion was adopted. Henry Jones, Esq., moved that none but registered voters be allowed to vote. Adopted. The meeting then proceeded to ballot. The following were the ticket: First. For Mayor—Charles Estes. For Council- John U. Meyer, George R. Sibley, James F. Thompson. Second. For Council—George R. Sib ley, W. J. Rutherford, H. L. Leon. Many scratches were made, how ever. The following was the result of the ballot: George R. Sibley 158 Jas. F. Thompson 156 John U. Meyer 134 W. J. Rutherford 82 H. L. Leon 82 Scattering 8 Messrs. Sibley, Thompson and Meyer were declared the nominees of the First Ward Democratic Club. Over one hundred and fifty votes were cast for Chas. Estes for Mayor, being a large majority over the total number. This seemed, by common con sent, to be the course adopted in pre ference to appointing delegates to a convention. On motion of J. L. Maxwell, the meeting adjourned. Third Ward. Vigilant Engine House was the scene of considerable liveliness last evening on the occasion of the called meeting of the Third Ward Democratic Club. At 7:30 p. m., Hon. R. H. May called the meeting to order. He hoped the Third Ward would set an example to others, and that every voter would have an opportunity of giving a full expression to his opinion by speech or by casting his vote. He then announced the regular business was in order. Counsellor A. Brandt moved that the present officers of the Club be re elected by acclamation. T. It. Vaughan offered as an amend ment that new men be chosen. He as one of the officers had served for five years. The amendment was lost, and the original motion was carried. Mr. May then thanked the Club for the kind expression of confidence, and said he intended to act with justice and impartiality. Counsellor Brandt moved, that it “was the sense of this meeting of voters of the Third Ward that Hon. Charles Estes was the choice of the Ward for Mayor.” A. N. Cox objected. He was strongly to Mr. Estes. A. D’Antignac wanted a committee appointed to make a choice. Counsellor Brandt did not agree with either Mr. Cox or Mr. D’Antignac. The voters present, he said, had better transact their own business without the intervention of a committee. The Chairman put the motion of Mr. Brandt, and it was evidently carried by a large majority. A division was called for; the regis try list was insisted upon, and immedi ately produced by the chairman. John S. Davidson, Esq., suggested that the only way to get a proper sense of the meeting was by a viva voce vote by calling the names upon the Registry list. This was put as a motion and carried. A motion to adjourn was lost. George C. Oates was designated to call the roll, and he bad reached the fourteenth name, when Mr. Cox said it consumed time and it was useless to continue. A. D’Antignac said he would with draw the motion for a division, but afterwards changed his mind. The calling proceeded, and twenty four votes in favor oE Mr. Estes had been recorded, when the first “no” was recorded. Forty votes had polled for Mr. Estes, when the list showed six “ noes”; and so it run up to sixty-two in favor of Mr. Estes, to eight against him. The figures went, up to niuety two to thirteen, until the last name was called, when the Chairman an nounced the vote to be: For Mr. Estes, one hundred and fourteen; against him, nineteen. It was moved that the meeting pro ceed to ballot for members of Council. The Chair announced that J. T. Mil ler declined to be considered a candi date. A motion to adjourn was put and lost. T. R. Vaughan offered resolutions favoring the opening of the polls on Monday, to give expression by ballot of the choice of the Ward for members of Council. He said the object he had in offering the resolutions was to save time and “to protect the interests of those whose family connections pre vented their attendance at the meet ing.” Many voices cried out, the polls and let us vote.” After some little confusion and several motions and amendments, it was finally resolved to take an imme diate ballot, the polls to remain open until 11 p. m. The Chairman appointed James L. Gow, George W. Bouchillon and George C. Oates as tellers, and the ballot pro ceeded. At 11 o’clock the polls closed and the result of the ballot was: Whole number of votes cast 218 W. B. Young received 179 Wra. Bennett received 172 A. Philip received 163 goattering 66 MAYOR ESTES ACOETTS. About ten o’clock last evening, our representative met Hon. Charles Estes, and asked him, what action he was taking with reference to a renomina tion. Said Mr. Estes: “As the First and Third Wards, by a majority of the voters of those wards, have al most unanimously by ballot selected me as a candidate, and in view of the irregular proceedings in the meetings of the Clubs in the Second and Fourth Wards, I have determined to stand as a candidate for the Mayorality, on next Wednesday.” Mr. Estes further said; lam fully satisfied that a large majority of the voters in the Second and Fourth Wards favor my election.” THE VOTE IN THE FOURTH WARD. The polls in the Fourth Ward opened at ten a. m. and closed at 4 p. m. yes terday. ’ j A canvass of the votes showed : Whole number of votes cast 360 M. E. Hill received 322 Dr. W. H. Foster received 294 C. V. Walker received 224 W. H. Parker received 131 J. F. Armstrong received 19 Scattering 34 It is understood that the Fourth Ward voters, or at least the minority portion, will open polls at the Upper Market House on Monday, to receive ' ballots for members of Council.

A large and very harmonious special meeting of the Augusta Exchange was held at 1 p. m. yesterday. George R. Sibley, Esq., the President, on taking the chair, said he felt it his duty to call attention to a paragraph copied into the Constitution mast news paper from the Covington News. The statement of the Covington, journal was, that a very exciting aud almost pugilistic affair took place during a re cent meeting of the Exchange. Mr. Sib ley branded the statement as untrue in every particular. He also added that he thought newspapers should en deavor to assist all enterprises which advanced the interests of the city of Augusta, and not publish articles tend ing to detract from their usefulness. The minutes of the last meeting were read and confirmed. Colonel M. P. Stovall offered the fol lowing resolutions : 1. Resolved, That any member who shall bid upon, or *ffer for sale, any security and afterwards fail to receive and pay for, or decline the security bought or sold by him in accordance with the rules of this Ex change, shall upon proof thereof be imme diately posted and expelled. ; 2. Resolved, That it shall be the duty of the Secretary to report for publication the prices bid and asked for any and ail securi ties embraced in the daily call of the Ex change, iwhen the difference between the price bid and asked does not exdfced five dollars a share on stocks or 1! ve dollars per one hundred on bonds of such security, and when the difference is wider, no report shall be made of the price bid or asked. 3. Resolved, That a copy of these resolu tions be furnished the Augusta papers for publication. On motion of L. L. Zulowsky, Esq., the resolutions were voted on separate ly and passed. Major Branch moved that three members be appointed by the Chair to revise the rules governing the ; sales of stocks or bonds. Carried. The President appointed ’Messrs. Branch, Barrett and Curry ,u3 such committee. . ’ . j- The meeting then adjourned..). Words are women, deeds are men.— George Herbert. The Freedman’s Bank. For some weeks past., the Augusta Savings Institution has been crowded with depositors of the Freedman’s Savings and Trust Company, Mr. Bean having already received claims on the broken bank amounting to nearly fifty thousand dollars, while the pass books aro still being handed in. Tne colored people had begun to be a progressive and saving people, and this terrible swindle is to be the more re gretted as an ignorant class of people once imposed upon, are the slowest to have their confidence restored. There were but few of the freedmen here who did not lose all Jtheir hard-saved earn ings, and the Augusta Branch proved a rich mine for plunder, for when we consider that the Augusta Savings In stitution alone has forwarded this large quantity of books, and that other banks, the Express Office and private individuals have also been sending them, it proves that this vicinity was drained of amount of money. We trust that the colored people will discover that it 'was the misfortune in their selection, not lack of honesty in the land, which proved their first confidence such a miserable failure, and that again bending their energies to advancement, they will hereafter deposit their earnings with banks whose responsibility is un doubted and whose officers are known to them. The Oglethorpe Echo claims that they have seen a beet raised in that vicinity, which weighed fourteen pounds. We have some in this city that will kick the beam at two hun dred. BUSINESS NOTICES.

At the Cotton Exohange, market on spot has declined %c during the week; at one time quite a good business for consump tion was done, and fair business for export, but a quiet market in Liverpool, a decline in gold, and more than all large receipts at ports, have caused the marked fal ing off fn trade, and close is dull and weak. The same influences have combined to depress futures, but latterly they ruled iirmer. some decrease in receipts at ports at close, as well as report of failure of operator un derstood to be short, have encouraged holders somewhat.

They com manded the admiration of the true and the brave in every land. But how few admire a line head enveloped in grey hair and whiskers!—very few. We all love admira tion, and nothing in our appearance ie more calculated to secure it than pretty hair. If old age, sickness or sorrow has robbed you of it, you can regain it by the use of Dr. Tutt's Hair Dye. Its populari ty is so great that it can be found on the shelves of every druggist in the land. octiS-suwedfr&cly IIV CR EDULIT Y. HOW potent is this trait of the humaD mind. The liible refers to it and says: “Were an angel to come down from heaven, ye would not believe.” It is the cause of much injury. Wo are disposed to doubt the sincerity of our best friends, and so far is it indulged, that i, often leads to misanthropy. This is particularly applicable to the vir tues of many truly valuable remedial agents, however strong they may be en dorsed. Header, 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 Liver Pills, write to him and he will furnish you with hundreds of certificates from the most reliable men and women in thd coun try, who have been cured by them, of whom you can mako direct inquiry. It will cost you but a postage stamp. The proprietor solicits the investigation of all who need a truly valuable modicino. COAL! CAHABA, COAL CHEFK and ANTHRA CITE COALS lor sale at Lowest Prices.
