Presentation,
A most pleasant affair came off last
evening at the hall of Richmond Lodge,
No. 43, I. O. G. T. The lodge having
voted a gold medal to the member
bringing into the organization the
largest number of members during the
quarter ending October 31, the presen
tation occurred last evening. Ged
(lings Lamb, recording secretary, on
behalf of the Lodge, presented the
medal to Mrs. A. M. Verdery, and a re
ply on her behalf was made by [Mason
Bridges. The medal is in the shape of
a Maltese cross. In the centre is a
heart, anchor and cross, and suitable
inscriptions surround them.
New Book.
Infelice. A novel By Augusta Evans
Wilson.
After a silence of several fyears, the
author of “Beulah,” “St. Elmo” and
“Vashti” comes before the public in a
new work entitled as above. The
thousands of her admirers will not fail
to secure this latest production of her
matured genius. We are told that the
orders for this novel are so enormous
at the North and South that it is with
difficulty printers and binders can sup
ply the demand. The volume before
us is an elegant specimen from the
publishing house of Carleton & Cos. We
are indebted to Mr. Pendleton for our
copy, and at his counter the book is
now ready for sale.
Horrible Outrage.
About 5 o’clock on Sunday afternoon,
Mackie Merriwether living in Edge
field, S. C., was walking along a road a
few hundred yards from his house, and
was near the store of Reese and Shaw,
when be observed two negroes rapidly
approaching him. Mr. Merriwether
suspected something hostile was in
tended, as he has been threatened for
wounding a negro in the melee, which
occurred between the whites and blacks
a year ago in Edgefield. As the negroes
came up to him, he stepped to one side
and attempted, to defend himself with
a small stick he carried, but one of the
negroes stabbed him several times, and
Mr. Merriwether was left weltering in
his blood. A short time after, a gentle
man who came along the road, discover
ed Mr. Merriwether’s condition and
gave the alarm. Some of the citizens
turned out to search for the assassin,
but were met by a crowd of about thirty
negroes armed with guns and other
weapons, who swore no arrest should
be made. A o the blacks were numeri
cally stronger than the other party, the
murderous negro made good his
escape.
The First Ward Baptist Church con
gregation will have a parlor concert and
festival on Thursday evening at the

MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS.
Meeting at the City Hall Last Evening
—Only Two Wards Represented—Dr.
L. D. Ford Nominated for Mayor—
Dr. Jones Moves an Address to the
People—Suppressed Correspondence
—Political Gossip.
A report having gained currency
yesterday, that a meeting of persons
opposed to Mr. Estes would meet at
the City Hall, at eight o’clock p. m.,
our representative proceeded to the
Superior Court Room, which was found
lighted up and ready. At half-past
seven p. m., there were eight persons
in the room together with the two
“locals” of the city papers. At eight
p. m. twenty-four persons were pres
ent, by actual count, and in a few
minutes, a number of the published
delegates appeared, and, with those
who came with them, swelled the total
number in the room to about seventy
five.
John Phinizy, Esq., moved that Gen.
Stovall act as chairman, and it was
agreed to.
Dr. E. W. Harker was nominated and
selected for Secretary.
The chairman, in taking the chair,
said that it was a time-honored custom
of the Democratic party to send dele
gates to a convention to nominate a
Mayor. Two Wards had, however,
failed to send delegates, but he believed
the delegates present had authority to
nominate a Mayor.
Mr. S. Warren Mays moved that
the roll of delegates be called. Car
ried.
The roll was called and the following
gentlemen answered:
Second Ward— John Phinizy, M. S.
Kean, W. H. Chew, E. W. Harker, J. P.
Bondurant, S. Warren Mays, Salem
Dutcher, Joseph Graham, Evans Heg
gie.
Fourth Ward—Gen. M. A. Stovall,
M. Hyams, C. H. Johannsen, P. Glea
son, P. M. Mulherin, A. A. Beall, John
Byrne, J. O’Hara, Dr. M. J. Jones, M.
McDermott.
Mr. Dutcher moved that the conven
tion of delegates present, receive the
names of gentlemen to be placed in
nomination for Mayor. Cariied.
Mr. Phinizy nominated Dr. L. D. Ford
for Mayor.
The Chairman after a silence of a
few minutes duration, asked if there
were any other names to be placed in
nomination, and there being no re
sponse, he put the question, and Dr.
Ford was unanimously placed in nomi
nation.
Mr. Hyams moved to adjourn, but
the motion was not seconded.
Dr. Jones then moved that a Com
mittee of Four be appointed to pre
pare a suitable address to the people.
Gen. Stovall asked : “Two from each
ward ?”
Mr. Webb replied : “Yes; that is un
derstood ?”
Gen. Stovall—“Do I understand two
from each ward in the city ?”
Dr. Jones —“No; two from each ward
represented in the Convention.”
The Chairman then announced the
committee as follows:
Second Ward—John Phinizy, Salem
Dutcher.
Fourth Ward—P. M. Mulherin, C. H.
Johannsen.
Mr. Webb moved that the chairman
of the meeting be chairman of the
committee. Carried.
Mr. Dutcher then addressed the
convention. He said he regretted i
to notice that two wards had failed to
send delegates. Two wards of the city
were represented, however, and it was
a mere technicality or a failure of the
machinery, that accounted for the ab
sence of delegates from the first and
third wards. He trusted that represen
tatives of the first and third wards
would be invited to join in the present
movement. He further said, that this
convention did not arrogate to itself
the power to dictate to the other wards,
and he hoped a cordial invitation would
be extended to them to co-operate as
friends, neighbors and citizens.
On motion, at 8:30 p. m. the meeting
adjourned.
SUPPRESSED CORRESPONDENCE.
A report was current that some cor
respondence had taken place between
the gentlemen who met at the City Hall
last evening and the officers of the First
and Third Ward Democratic Clubs.
After some trouble, we obtained the
following copies of letters :
Don. Robert May, President of Democratic
Club of the Third Ward:
Sir : In accordance with the custom pur
sued by the Democratic Club, of the several
Wards of the city of Augusta, we authorized
by the Democracy of our respective Wards
have appointed delegates to meet delegates
of the First and Third Wards in convention
for the purpose of nominating a Demo
cratic candididate for Mayor of Augusta.
We respectfully request that you notify the
delegates from the Third Ward to meet the
delegates of the other Wards at the City
Hall at 8 o’clock this evening November
•29th, 1875.
B. Doris,
President of Fourth Ward Club.
Sterling C. Eve.
Vice-President and Chairman.
B. Doris, President Fourth Ward ; Sterling
C. Eve, Vice President and Chairman:
Gentlemen— Tour communication was
handed me by R. H. May, President of the
Third Ward Club, requesting him to notify
delegates from the Third Ward to meet
delegates from your Wards, this evening,
at eight o’clock, at the City Hall, to nomi
nate candidates for Mayor. It becomes my
duty to inform you that the Democrats of
the Third Ward, on the evening of the 22d
inst., decided that they preferred voting
directly for their choice to represent them
as Mayor and nominated Hon. Charles
Estes by a large majority, for Mayor, con
sequently no delegates were elected or ap
pointed.
I trust the above will bo satisfactory.
By order of Rob’t H. May, President.
G. W. Bouchillon,
Secretary of the Third Ward Club
GOSSIP AROUND TOWN.
From a careful survey of the politi
cal situation, and conversation with
gentlemen favorable to the nomi
nation of Hon. Charles Estes and
those in the opposition, we are of
opinion that Mr. Estes appears to
have the hearty support of the ma
jority of those who have the interests
of the city at heart. It is true the
gentlemen who oppose Mr. Estes are de
termined in their opposition, but there
does not appear to be any well settled
plan in their movements, but we pre
sume the plan for the campaign and
grounds of opposition to Mr. Estes
will appear in the address voted last
night, which will be found in another
column.
MINOR LOCALS.
The Washington Light Artillery have
received the two caissons from the
Augusta Arsenal, referred to several
days since.
The schooner Jordan has arrived at
Port Royal with a load of guano from
Baltimore for General M. A. Stovall.
The concluding races to-day, will
commence at two o’clock p. m., sharp.
They will be very fine, and the low
price of admission should ensure a
large number of spectators.
The pastors of the Methodist Epis
copal Churches of this city, will leave
this morning for the North Georgia
Conference, which meets at Griffin.
There were no cases before the Re
corder’s Court yesterday. We cannot
understand how we are to fill our local
columns, if the police keep the city in
such an orderly condition. No mur
der, drunkeness or disorder, reported
iu the city for twenty-four hours.
It is understood, the time of the fast
mail train on the Georgia Railroad is
to be reduced one hour next week.
The trip will be made between Augusta
and Atlanta in seven hours instead of
eight as at present. The road is always
adopting improvements favoring the
interests of the traveling publio.
Charity begins at home, but after
you’ve attended to your home, don’t
forget the thousands in this city unable
to attend to theirs. Open your hearts
and your purses, for “the poor ye have
always with you.”
A small girl in Macon cut her finger,
a few days ago, and her fond mother
ordered John to run quickly to a cer
tain street and bring a doctor. “If
one ain’t in,” were the orders, “ leave
word and go to the next.” John obeyed
orders, and twenty-one doctors called
in the course of aD hour.
“ From what you know of him, would
you believe him under oath ? ” “ That
depends on circumstances. If he was
so much intoxicated that he did not
know what he was saying, I would ; if
not, I wouldn’t.”
The first grand hop of the Oglethorpe
Social Club occurs on Wednesday. It
will be a recherche affair, judging by
the past record of the club and the
names of the gentlemen having the
direction of the matter. The matrons
of the club will attend.
Yesterday morning, between nine
and ten o’clock, one of the “flyers”
from the Fair Grounds, attached to a
sulky, while going at a rapid rate
through Greene street, swerved to one
side, near the City Hall, and smashed
the sulky against a fence. The
driver escaped without injury.
One of the numerous class of “intel
ligent compositors,” changed a word
in the report of the Augusta Exchange
on Saturday which made nonsense out
of the first resloution. It should read :
1. Resolved, That any member who shall
bid upon, or offer for sale, any security and
afterwards fail to receive and pay for, or
deliver the security bought or sold by him
in accordance with the rules of this Ex
change, shall upon proof thereof be im
mediately posted and expelled.
There is a man in the Hospital who
is suffering from an old wound received
in discharge of his duty as a Confede
rate soldier. He is represented to be
in very destitute circumstances. His
record as a gallant soldier is undispu
ted, and his case is one which appeals
stroDgly to the charitable.
THE COURTS.
November 25, 1875.
CITY COURT.
The case of John H. Parker vs. W.
B. Joppliog was decided by a verdict of
$266.43 for the plaintiff, with interest
and costs.
The case of (garnishment) Joseph
Lawson vs. H. Morrison was decided
for the plaintiff.
COUNTY COURT.
A negro named Miller, a tramp, who
was caught stealing corn from Hunter
Wimberly, another colored man, and
was shot by the latter, was tried and
found guilty of simple larceny. Judge
Snead sentenced him to one year in the
city chain-gang.
George Harris alias Taylor Harris, a
negro charged with cheating and
swindling, was discharged for want of
evidence.
Christian Church.
The beautifui stained glass window
representing the baptism of our Saviour
by St. John, has been taken out of the
window at the rear of the platform and
returned to the manufacturers. A lady,
whose voice is potent in the affairs of
the church, objected to any picture of
our Saviour representing him in human
form ; hence, the^change.
It is probable the organ will be lo
cated on the ground floor at the right
of the platform, and the gallery destin
ed for the organ will be set apart for the
uses of the Sunday-school library. No
selection of an organ has been made
yet, but in all likelihood, the same gen
erous purse that has erected in this city
one of the finest churches in the State,
will contribute the organ. Every per
son of taste cannot fail to be pleased at
the change of the location of the organ 1
It has been ascertained that incipient
chorea or St. Vitus’ dance is increasing
among school girls, and it may be
traced by nervous twitching of the
hands and the muscles of the face.
Also, chronic headaches, fainting fits
and epileptic hysterical seizures, are
more numerous than they should be,
and more especially among the young
girls approaching womanhood. The
cause is undoubtedly over-study and
anxiety of mind, produced by inability
to master the allotted studies. The
diseases of the school room, it is also
thought, might possibly be alleviated
by change or construction and better
attention to oolor, and by reducing the
number of hours required for study.
That was a profound philosopher who
compared advertising to a growing
crop. He said, “The farmer plants his
seed, and while he is sleeping the corn
is growing. So with advertising ; while
you are sleeping or eating, your ad
vertisement is being read by thou
sands of persons who never saw you
nor heard of your business, nor ever
would but for your advertising.”
Sudden Death.
Just before daybreak yesterday, the
wife of Solomon L. Bassford, and iscovered
that her husband was cold and ap
parently dead. She gave the alarm and
every means were at once taken to
resuscitate him but without avail. Mr.
Bassford is the well known brick
maker, and resided in Mclntosh street
near the ice house. It was reported
that the deceased took poison but the
Coroner’s inquest thoroughly dispelled
this unfounded report. Thu Coroner
impannelled a jury yesterday,'•omposed
of the following gentlemen: C. A.
Robbe, J. G. Marsh, D. A. Philpot, F.
W. Haley, S. S. Parmalee, W. J.
Rutherford, W. W. Bansley, J. M.
Richards, James McCann, Richard
Kelly, D. H. Denning, P. L, Cohen.
After an examination of the body and
listening to the evidence of several
witnesses, on the report of Dr. Sterling
E. Eve, the jury found that Mr.
Bassford died of apoplexy. The de
ceased served in Company I, Rich
mond Huzzars during the late war, and
was known as a most gallant soldier.
He will be buried with Masonic honors
by Webb Lodge, No. 166 F. & A. M.
members of which will find a notice of
a called meeting in another column.
The Veteran Cavalry Association will
also turn out to attend his funeral,
which will take place at ten o’clock
this morning.
Correspondence.
Augusta, Ga., Nov. 29,1875.
Dr. Lewis D. Ford :
Dear Sir : As President of the Dem
ocratic Municipal Convention, I take
pleasure in informing you that at the
meeting of that body to-night., at the
City Hall, you were unanimously nom
inated as the regular Democratic can
didate for Mayor of Augusta, at the
election on Wednesday next. Your
well known aversion to politics almost
inspires me with some apprehension
that you may not be willing to accept
the position thus tendered you; but
when we contemplate the : present
alarming condition, financial and
otherwise, of our city, and realize
that it is only by the sacri
fice of personal prepossessions to the
public good that we can once
more enter on the era of good and
economical government, which once so
eminently distinguished Augusta, I
am sure you cannot but consent to
serve. In your case, sir, the golden prin
ciple of the Madisonian doctrine is fully
verified. The office has emphatically
sought the man, and not tho man the
office.
Your acceptance of the nomination
tendered you will be hailed with heart
felt satisfaction by your fellow-citizens,
and, awaitiDg your reply, I am,
Yours, respectfully,
M. A. Stovall,
President.
Augusta, Ga., November 29th, 1875.
General M. A. Stovall, President Demo
cratic Nominating Convention:
General : Your communication of
this date, takes me by surprise.
I accord fully with your representa
tion of the necessity of a thorough in
vestigation of our Municipal affairs.
Conscious of not having sought this
nomination, either directly or indirect
ly, I yield to the argument of the Madi
sonian dictum, quoted by you, and
hailiDg with pleasure any step in a re
turn to the sound usages of the pure
days of the Republic. I accept the
nomination.
Respectfully, your obedient servant
and fellow citizen, Lewis D. Ford.
The Jockey Club Races.

The Mayoralty.
As the question of the eligibility of
a Mayor for more terms than flvo has
again been mooted, we reproduce from
the files of the Chronicle & Sentinel of
December Ist, 1874, the following com
munication :
Editors Chronicle & Sen'inel:
The question of eligibility of the Mayor
of Augusta having been frequently dis
cussed in this community, and always set
tled by the 4th section of the original char
ter of the city,! it may not be out of place
to state here that that section, so far as it
concerns the eligibility of the Mayor, has
been repealed The passage of the 4th sec
tion of the charter of 1798 referred to reads
as follows:
“ But no person shall be eligible to serve
as Intendant for more than five years in
any term of seven years.”— City Code,
page 5.
By the act of December 19th, 1817, the
appellation of Intendant was changed
to that of Mayor.— City Code, page XIX,
2d, Ed.
By the act of December 28th, 1835, the
charter was amended, and the second sec
tion is as follows:
“And be it enacted by the authority afore
said, That so much of the 4th section of
the act incorporating said city, nassed on
the 31st day of January, 1798, as limits the
eligibility of the Intendant or Mayor of
said city, be, and the same is hereby, re
pealed.”—City Code, page 207.
It is probable that this change was made
to accommodate the case of Ron. Wm.
Hale, who held the office for several years
longer than the term allowed by the origi
nal charter. Duzenbubry.

Cut This Out—-It May Save Your
Life.— There is no person living but
what suffers more or less with Lung
Disease, Coughs, Colds or Consump

pay 75 cents for a bottle of medicine
that would cure them. Dr. A. Boschee’s
German Syrup has lately been intro
duced in this country from Germany,
and its wondrous cures astonishes
every one that try it. If you doubt
what we say in print, cut this out and
take it to your Druggist—F. A. Beall
and Barrett & Land—and get a sam
ple bottle for 10 cents and try it, or a
regular size for 75 cents.

Popular.— So popular have Dr.
Price’s True Flavoring Extracts and
Cream Baking Powder become that but
few kitchens can be found where they
are not used, and their introduction io
any household is the advent of new
pleasures at the table and higher de
light in the lighter edibles supplied by
the careful house-keeper. Dr. Price
has succeeded in both these important
domestic necessities, in producing ar
ticles hitherto unequalled. His fla
vorings are peculiarly delicious, and so
highly concentrated that it takes but
a small quantity to impart the natural
flavor of the fruit. His Cream Baking
Powder should be bought only in cans,
as loose powder is largely adulterated,
and often sold as Dr. Price’s when it

physical energies are overtasked or
flag through weakness or disease, they
need prompt reinforcement. Renewed
vigor is most speedily supplied through
the medium of tonic stimulant, and
among medicinal resources of that
class, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters as
suredly deserve a pre-eminent place.
Weakness, whether constitutional or
arising from disease or over-fatigue,
cannot be bettor compensated for than
by a resort to this prime strengthening
cordial. The enfeebled invalid, the
convalescent and the aged and infirm
find that it is an unfailing source of
vigor and comfort. Its combined tonic
and alterative properties also consti
tute it an invaluable remedy for indi
gestion, weakness of the organs of
urination, constipation, torpidity of the
liver, and many other irregularities
and disabilities, and render it an in
valuable protection against malaria, as
well as disorders of the stomach and
bowels. nov3o-tuthsa&c
Everything depends upon the healthy
condition of the liver. You might as
well expect a watch to keep good .time
with the spring out of its proper posi
tion as to expect to feel active and en
ergetic with a torpid liver. The cele
brated Home Stomach Bitters will
awaken your dormant energies and
arouse an inactive liver. Suppose you
try them. nov3o-wefr&c

‘ THE BOYS IN GREY.”
WE were wont to admire the boys who
wore the grey, though it was not for
the grey alone, but for the noble, chival
rous hearts that beat under it. They com
manded the admiration of the true and the
brave in every land. But how few admire
a lino head enveloped in grey hair and
whiskers!—very few. We all love admira
tion, and nothing in our appearance is
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 bo found on the
shelves of every druggist in the land.
