MINOR LOCALS.
Yesterday was a raw day.
Gen. Stephen D. Lee is in our city,
stopping at the Planters’ Hotel.
New Orleans boasts a policeman
named Garlick. He must be good on a
scent.
And no man arose and said at the
Council meeting yesterday: “I
test.”
St. George’s Society meet this even
ing, in their hall, overPughe’s printing
office.
There was no Recorder’s Court yes
terday, there being no business to
come before it.
Mayor Estes entertained some of his
friends in a handsome manner yester
day after the adjournment of Council.
Cotton movements yesterday : eigh
teen hundred and twenty-seven bales
received, one thousand and eighty-six
bales sold.
A noisy individual, who had not re
covered from the excitement of the
election, drew a pistol on Broad street,
yesterday, and caused a “ scattering ”
of the crowd that had assembled. On
being told a policeman was approach
ing, he became more scared than the
crowd, and Iguominiously ran away.
The express locomotive “George T.
Jackson,” No. 9 of the Port Royal Rail
road, has just returned to the road,
having been repaired. It looks very
handsome and shiny, having been re
painted, and made to look almost like
anew machine.
Will some benefactor of the human
race set the fashion in Augusta of fry
ing potatoes in the Saratoga style J .
The formula directs that you should
peel good sized potatoes and slice them
as even as possible ; drop them into ice
water ; have a kettle of lard, as for fried
cakes, and very hot; put a few at a
time into a towel, shake them about to
dry them, and then drop them into the
hot lard ; stir them occasionally, and
when of a light brown take them out
with a skimmer. If properly done they
will not be at all greasy, but crisp with
out and mealy within.
The bonnets of the day are as eccen
tric as all other articles of toilet. The
most peculiar combinations of colors
are in use; for mstance, on the brim
of a green or a plum-colored felt bon
net is a sky-blue ostrich feather.
There is no limit to the fanciful styles
now used, even for children. Cloth,
velvet, poplin, plain serge, and Scotch
plaid are all trimmed. Cardinal gros
grain ribbon is the fashionable fancy
for trimming the lace caps worn by lit
tle girls. These caps are close cottage
shape, and are worn over a quilted
silk lining the color of tho trimming.
A Louisville, Ky. paper*in an article
headed “What we want in Louisville,”
says:
1. Five thousand live Yankees and as
many more foreigners to come to Louis
ville and make their fortunes by starting
Sii all factories. „ , . _ ~
2 Steam Power Factories. —To enable
skillful and industrious artisans of small
means to rent power, and produce their
handiwork without the necessity of invest
ing a small fortune in dead capital.
3 Applications to the Secretary of the M.
and ML Exchange reveal the facts that we
nave establishments in our midst, both
large and small, which require additional
• -apital; also that capital is seeking invest
ment. Who can suggest the best plan to
bring the two parties into confidential com
munication without undue exposure of the
private interests of the business man?
There is sound common sense in
these suggestions, and a movement in
the same direction should be made in
Augusta.
The Edgefield Advertiser thus speaks
of one of the prominent Broad street
temples of fashion and its tasteful di
rjunoing and a tasteful lady Is Mrs.
Brum Clark, of Augusta. Are you

MEETING OF COUNCIL.
Last Meeting of the Old Board—Mayor
Estes Highly Complimented.—Reso
lutions of Confidence Passed by the
Old Board—The Mayor’s Inaugural
—Organization of the New Council.
At noon yesterday, the old Council
met at the City Hall. A large number
of citizens were in attendance.
There were present, Mayor Estes,
and Messrs. Myer, Thompson, Sibley,
Barrett, Evans, Pournelle, Philip, Ben
nett and Hill.
Mr. Blorne, the Clerk, read the min
utes of the last two meetings—one a
regular end the other a called meeting
—and they were confirmed.
Mr. Barrett said he had a resolution
to offer, but before it was read he
should request Mayor Estes to retire.
Mr. Philip thereupon was called to the
chair, and Mayor Estes retired.
The following resolution, introduced
by Mr. Barrett, was then read and
unanimously adopted :
Whereas, another term of service of Hon.
Charles Estes, as Mayor of Augusta, has
just expired, it is appropriate that we, his
associates in Council, should express our
sentiments in regard to his official careor;
i herefore, be it
Resolved, by tiie City Council of Augusta,
that in Hon. Charles Estes, this oity has
had a faithful and zealous publ*c officer,
one who has, we feel confident, discharged
the duties of his position with a high con
scientious regard for the best interest of
the city, and with a fidelity which has won
the approval ot his fellow-citizens.
Resolved, That we tender to him our sin
cere thanks for the ability and impartiality
with which he has presided over the delib
erations of this body, and extend to him
our best wishes for his present and future
prosperity in public and in private life.
Resolved, That this preamble and these
resolutions be entered on the minutes of
< ’ouncil, and a copy be furnished to Mayor
Estes.
Mr. Beonett moved that a committee
of one from each Ward be appointed to
wait on Mr. Estes and escort him to
the chair. The following gentlemen
were appointed: Messrs. Barrett, Myer,
Bennett and Hill. The committee then
retired and returned in a few minutes
with Mayor Estes, who was received
with much applause, as he entered the
chamber. The very complimentary
resolutions just adopted were then
read to him. Mayor Estes replied in a
low tone of voice, and was evidently
much impressed by the character of
the vote of confidence just passed. He
said, that he returned his thanks, feel
ing well assured the resolutions meant
all they said. He thanked the mem
bers of Council for this expression of
their esteem, and he had the same kind
feelings towards them as they had ex
pressed towards him in the resolutions.
|Applause.] He then resumed the
chair.
Mr. Blorae then read the election re
turns made by the managers ol the
election, held December Ist, and they
were confirmed. The following gentle
men then came forward by wards and
were sworn into office as members of
Council: G. R. Sibley, J. F. Thompson,
J. U. Myer, First Ward ; J. K. Evans,
Edward O’Donnell and John B. Pour
nell, Second Ward ; Alexander Philip,
W. B. Young and William Bennett,
Third Ward ; C. Y. Walker, M. E. Hill
and W. H. Foster, Fourth Ward.
Mr. Philip then swore in Mayor Estes,
and he read the following inaugural:
Genii men of the City Council:
By the partiality of our fellow-citizens,
the welfare of the city has been entrusted
to our care for the next twelvo months. Let
us so act as to show that their trust has
been wisely bestowed.
For this confidence so oft reposed in my
self, and those so long associated with me,
I return my heartfelt thanks.
With the aid of your experience and wis
dom, and that harmony I confidently ex
pect in the management of the interests of
tho city, I will not doubt that we will be
able to’satisfy all good citizens.
Owing to the regular and continued de
cline in real and personal property, com
mencing with the panic of 1873, the taxable
property of the city fell off last year about
$1,000,000, and no doubt there will be a still
further falling off ou the next digest. You
will, therefore, recognize at once the neces
sity of tho strictest economy possible in
city expenditures, consistent with the
maintenance of good order, and in view of
a sound financial policy.
It behooves you to make only such ex
penditures as’a prudent business man
would make in his own affairs. Let us re
trench wherever a due regard to the city’s
interests will permit.
During the fiscal year, $122,000 of city
bonds fall due; $3,000, issued in 1866, ma
ture May Ist, 1876; and $119,000. issued in
1860, mature December Ist, 1876. It will
become your duty to raise the money to
pay them in cash when due.
This is the month for enacting ordinances
for salaries, and fixing specific taxes; also,
providing what subjects shall be included
in the digest of 1876, for ad valorem taxa
tion. I beg that you will give these mat
ters early and serious attention.
Having made a very full statement of the
work and expenditures on the canal en
largement at the last regular meeting,
there is nothing more to be said on that
subject now, only that the work is pio
gressing in its regular order and quite as
satisfactorily as could be expected. The
weather has been such for a portion of the
month that little could be done. Henc.
not a large amount of stone could be laid
in the dam.
Our Fire Department, under its able
chief and officers, and with its fine body of
men, is as ever, all that could be wished or
asked for. One company is very much in
need of anew engine house, but I fear it
will be impossible to accommodate them
with it the current year.
The Police Department, under its able
and experienced Chief, his Lieutenants and
officers, and with its faithful corps of pri
vates, have at no period of the city’s histo
ry been more justly entitled to the very
highest praise for effh ieuev and general
good conduct than during the year just
closed. So long as they maintain the sanie
high character for these qualities, the city
will have just cause to be proud of its
police.
In conclusion, gentlemen, permit me to
say that our fellow-citizens justly expect
from us earnest attention to our duties,
with an economical and faithful adminis
tration of the city government.
Trusting to the All-Wise Ruler to direct
us for the best interests of all our people, I
pronounce Council organized and ready
for business,
Respectfully submitted.
Chas. Estes, Mayor.
Mayor Estes declared the Council
ready for business.
Mr. Sibley moved that the rules of
the last Council govern the present.
Carried.
Mr. Pournell moved that the Mayor
appoint the usual committees at his
leisure. Carried.
Mr. Philip moved to adjourn. Car
ried.
-
The newspapers have recently men
tioned several instances where men
have shot their wives in fits of jea
lousy. Every school boy who has seen
his sweetheart give the biggest and
reddest apple to that other fellow, and
has turned pale at the agonizing spec
tacle, knows what jealousy is—he
knows that the man in whose soul the
green-eyed monster has fastened its
red-hot fangs feels that he has got the
toothache all over him; and feeling
thus —feeling too mean to live—why
doesn’t the jealous husband shoot him
self instead of his wife ? Asa married
man he is made up of two halves, and
in nine cases out of ten he had better
shoot the half that holds the gun.
Amusements,
The Adelaide Phillipps’ Italian Opera
Troupe will be here on the 15th inst.,
and George C. Oates will commence
selling tickets on the 10th. The com
pany is a fine one, and has met with a
handsome patronage. Of a recent per
formance in [Washington, D. C., the
Chronicle of that city says :
“II Trovatore” was presented last even
ing by the Adelaide Phillipps’ Grand Italian
Opera Company at Ford’s Opera House, to
a large and exceedingly discriminating
audience. The role of Azucena was assumed
by Miss Adelaide Phillipps, and that of
Leonora by Miss Yiolette Colville, while
Manrico and Connt di Luna were respective
ly filled by Signors Buganini and Taglia
pietra. It is not too much to say that the
cast was in every particular a most satis
factory one, while iu many respects it far
excelled that put forward by any previous
management in this city. Azucena certainly
never had a better interpretation than it
received at the hands of Miss Phil
lipps last evening. She was in excellent
voice, and gave the impassioned music of
the part in an extremely sympathetic man
ner, eliciting frequent and rapturous ap
planse. Her acting was also a very satis
factory delineation of the character of the
gypsy of the opera. The baiitone of the
evening, Tagliapietra, as on Tuesday night,
won another triumph. He has a voice of
wonderful compass and sweetness, and his
singing and acting are full of magnetism-
There is little wonder, then, that ho should
have carried the audience by storm as he
did, and earn the reputation of being the
best baritone that ever visited this city.
Signor Buganini’s was Manrico was accept
ably sung, but his acting scarcely compares
with the quality of his vocal organ. Asa
tenor, he will scarcely take rank with
some who have won distinction on the
operatic stage, but he can safely be pro
nounced up to the average. Signor Bac
celii, the Ferrando, was not in as good
voice as he might have been, but went
through his part very agreeably. Alto
gether, the rendition may safely be pro
nounced a most praiseworthy one. Miss
Adelaide Phillipps is certainly entitled to a
great deal of credit for the efforts made by
her to provide a high order of operatic en
tertainment for the American public, and
all lovers of music will rejoice to know that
they are likely to be crowded by success.
The Royal Japs, commenced their
engagement at the Opera House last
evening. Considering the inclement
weather they had a good audience.
The music was furnished by Profesors
Wiegand and Sofge, and was excel
lent. There are but four members of
the troupe, Gangero, Yarae Kikue,
Tomey, and a diminutive individual
answering to the name of Que, but we
suspect should be denominated Mrs.
Que. The programme was as follows :
Box Balancing, Yarae Kikue and Que ;
Box Pyramid, Tomey ; Screen Balanc
ing, Que ; Box and Bottle, Gangero ;
Slide Rope, Que ; Top Smimiing, Gau
gero ; Mammoth Screen, Yarae Kikue
and Que; Box Pyramid, Gangero;
Bamboo Pole, Gangero and Que ; Box
Pyramid, Tomey ; Ball Juggling Gan
gero.
The best portions of the performance
appeared to be the wonderful top
spinning, ball juggling, and bamboo
pole balancing. Just imagine a pole
twenty feet long balanced on Gangero’s
shoulder, while little Quo “shinned” up
to the top of tho pole, and performed
a number of difficult feats. Nothing
ever before exhibited in this country
approaches the performances of this
troupe in their peculiar line. There
will be an entire change of programme
this evening.
Lady Washington Tea Party.
We are very much gratified to learn
that the ladies of the Episcopal Church
have a special treat in store for our
citizens, iu the shape of a Lady Wash
ington Tea Party. The material of
which the party is to be made is that
which represents the sweetest and
handsomest of our young ladies, and
the most attractive of our matrons.
The dresses will be in the style of Cen
tennial days and will afford us an op
portunity to realize how the belles and
madames looked in “ the days which
tried men’s souls.” The refreshments,
howevever, will bo of a far more recent
date, and, from our knowledge of the
ladies having that department in
charge, wo confidently predict that the
most complete success will attend their
efforts. The different States compos
ing tho “Confederation” will be rep
resented by the ladies engaged in this
laudable undertaking, and we hope
that the cause which commands their
good deeds will meet with such sub
stantial appreciation as shall make
their hearts rejoice. We shall refer to
the subject more at length when the
plans have been fully developed.
Augusta’s “City of the Dead.”
Augusta certainly has the right to
boast of having one of the most beau
tiful and best-kept cemeteries In the
Southern. States. No better or more
beautiful spot could be selected for a
quiet stroll, to view the beauties of
nature, or for those who desire to
retire from tho busy ecjnes, and the
rush and bustle of city life, to seek for
a few hours a quiet, silent spot for
revery and repose. Mr. W. A. Brazeal,
the present keeper, deserves praise for
his efficiency in the position he holds,
for his ready and prompt attention to
all visitors, and more especially
for the great pride he takes in making
the whole place present at all
times the neatest possible appearance.
The walks and drives are as level, as
neat and as trim and smooth, almost,
as a lady’s parlor, and the shrubbery
and sections left to his care it seems
his greatest pride to keep as neat as
neat can be; in fact, he seems to feel
perfectly at home, from morn till night,
amongst the flowers and shrubbery,
and the quiet abode of the dead.
Mr. Brazeal informs us the old tail,
scrubby pines, in the ancient part of the
yard, which are sadly out of place,
very trashy and unsightly, are gradu
ally being removed, and soon there will
not be even “one left to tell the tale.”
There are many beautiful, well kept
sections, tombstones and monuments
which deserve notice, and we are sorry
we have not the space at this time
to do so. It would not be out of place,
however, to njention that the cemetery
watchman, Feo Wilson, has proved
himself to be a very efficient officer,
from the fact that such a thing as
robbing graves and sections of flowers
and shrubbery has entirely ceased. It
would seem to a casual observer that
these men are “tho right men in the
right place.”

It will be seen by the above figures
that the Georgia Railroad holds its
own as a sound security for investors.
The Augusta Exchange is becoming
a very important adjunct iu develop
ing the resources of Augusta, and
putting before the country statistics of
value. The new return, of stock
sales issued for the first time,
will prove of great value to
foreign investors. Messrs. George R.
Sibley, President, and C. F. Wilmans,
Honorary Secretary, are men of great
energy, and with the aid and counsel
of the Directors and other officers, are
doing a good work in systematizing the
transaction of business. We trust the
time is not far distant when this
energetic institution will appoint the
necessary committees and aid in the
development of our canal power, and
spread officially before the manufac
turing interests of the North and else
where, the great advantages the city
offers to manufacturers, especially of
cotton goods.
————
A $20,000,000 Dast.
In the November crop report of the
State Department of Agriculture, in
speaking of tho cotton crop of the
State, the omission of a dash (—) after
the figures “ $20,000,000,” on the second
page, makes the Commissioner say
that the crop “ will cost the producers
$20,000,000 more than it will bring on
the home market.” It should have
been “ will cost the producers $20,000,-
000—more than it will bring on the
home market.”
A considerable number of papers
that have copied or commented on the
report, have been led into the same er
ror.—Atlanta Constitution.
—-
Some say that it is no uso for them
to advertise ; that they have been in
tho same place in business all their
lives, and everybody knows them. Such
people forget to take into considera
tion that our country i3 increasing in
population nearly forty per cent, every
ten years, and no matter how old the
place may bo, there are constant chan
ges taking place ; some move to other
parts, and strangers fill their places.
In this age of the world, unless the
name of a business is kept constantly
before the public, some new firm may
start up, and by liberal advertising,
iu a very short time take the place of
the older ones, and the latter rust out,
as it were, and be forgotten.

The Course of Cotton.
[New York Bulletin, November 30 ]
The market has <’e eloped no very stir
ring features during the week, the general
volume of business proving small and the
tone slack. The gain has been almost
entirely in favor of tho buying interest,
especially marked on contracts maturing
at an early date, without attracting much
of an increase of demand. Indeed, we think,
if anything, there has been some loss of
faith iu cotton, tending, in a measure, to
cheek the call for actual supplies, and to
prevent purchases of futures as an invest
ment ; yet, at the rates ruling, the prospect
of a shrinkage are not considered suffici
ently encouraging to warrant “short”
sales to any extent, or to induce a decided
pressure. This is undoubtedly due in a
great measure to the continued oversold
condition of the market, and tho natural
timidity of tho “bears,” and many or
the trade are of opinion that, under
other circumstances, the weight of the re
ceipts of tho ports, and tho slow state of
the consumptive business, would prove
sufficient to cause a more serious break.
Taken altogether, tho “bullish ” feeling is
not strong at the moment, and while their
opponents are fairly confident, they await
a more positive support before operating
freely on their convictions.
The movement of “spots” lias been some
what irregular, but not very liberal, and to
dispose of supplies dealers have been com
pelled to gradually modify their views.
On home aecouut tho demand has merely
covered the ordinary small parcels re
quired by spinuers to carry them through
some immediate pr ssing want, and was
quite uncertain in character. From buyers
on foreign orders tho call was, like last
week, confined to special lots and princi
pally for shipment to the Continent. Ex
porters generally were receiving a full sup
ply on co tract; indeed, rather more, it
was hinted than they cared to han
dle, but deliveries in this way do
not always afford an oppoatunity
to satisfy the requirements as to certain
grades, and hence the special inquiry as
noted. Values have given way about %c.
per pound for the period covered by this
review, and at tho close of the week did not
show any signs of recovery. Holders have
been somewhat more liberal In their offer
ings, and while at no time was the pressure
to realize of a decided character, there was
throughout rather mote cotton available
than the wants of the market required.—
Parcels to arrive from the South, too, have
been offered with some little freedom and
at comoarativelv liberal terms, but were
not much wanted. A fair business was
done free on board at Southern ports early
in the week, but afterward became dull,
though full r,tes were still asked, and the
amount offered was not largo.
For future delivery, the market has been
somewhat flttul, but, on the whole, weak,
and values have averaged lower. The
heavy tone was most decided on the near
by months, and this was due to the disap
pearance of all indications of a Novemtjer
corner, with some pressure brought to
boar upon December. The issue of short
notices was pretty full; Indeed, rather in
excess of calculations, and though they
were stopped and generally supposed to go
where they would ultimately result In
shipping so much cotton out of the mar
ket, a surplus still remained, and the effect
was weakening. Among other influ
ences were the continued free ar
rivals at the ports, the absence of vitality
at Liverpool, and a not altoghther en
couraging outlook on the general goods
market. Stocks at this point, too, have
kept up well, and though it is known that
the running count covers a considerable
amount on shipboard not cleared, this is in
a me 1 sure considered as neutralized by the
slow sale of spots, with a probability that
there is a gradual addition to the amount
of cotton remaining in first hands unsold.
The operations during the week have been
largely confined to manipulations on con
tracts already outstanding, and there has
probably been no Increase of either the
“boar” or the “bull” interest. •

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 far is it indulged, that iL 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.
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 Liver
Pills, write to him and lie 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 direet inquiry. It will cost
you but a postage stamp. The proprietor
solicits the investigation of all who need a
truly valuable medicine.
HOW AWFULLY CULPABLE
"t TUST be those afflicted w ith Consump
ItJL tion, Bronchitis, Asthma, or any dis
ease of the Lungs, Throat or Chest, who
neglect to use Dr. Tutt’s Expectorant
after reading the following letter, written
by one of the most estimable ladies in the
South:
Savannah, Ga., April 28, 1872.
Dr. Tutt In gratitude for the benefit
received by the use of your Expectorant, I
do cheerfully add my testimony to its won
derful power in curing deep-seated coughs.
For several years I suffered dreadfully with
a cough, attended wrh great difficulty of
breathing. I was induced to try your Ex
pectorant, and it gave almost immediate
relief. I took six bottles, and am now per
fectly restored. It is about five months
since I began its use. and I nave not had aD
attack since, it has been a great blessing
to me; I cannot afford to be without it and
heartily recommend it to all who have,lung
or throat disease. Very respeel fully,

OYSTER SHELL LIME
The Cheapest and Best Fertilizer in
Use in Georgia.
NOTHING in tne way of a Fertilizer and
Renovator of old soils has been found
equal to PURE OYSTER SHELL LIME.
It is not only for one year, but its good
effects are seen and continues for eight to
ten years. Lime is greatly beneficial to all
Grain Crops, applied as a top dressing, and
also to Potatoes and all root crops, and
should be applied in quantities not less
than sto 30 bushels per acre. For Compost
Heaps it is invaluable, and to the planters
of Georgia this plan of using Lime is speci
ally recommended to bring up our State to
the front rank in Agricultural matters. The
cheapness of our OYSTER SHELL LIME
will recommend it to ever y farmer who has
used fertilizers largely for the past few
years. Its value is greatly enhanced by its
long years of service, acting as it does for
years after its application has been forgot
ten. Iu soils abounding in vegetable sub
stances the mauurial quality in Lime is
more fully recognized. Nitrogen abounds
in all soils of common fertility, but little of
it is available—Lime unlocks this store
house of Nitrogen and renders it readily
available for plant food. A splendid and
econo i ical compost fertilizer maybe made
by thoroughly mixing one bushel of salt
and three of Lime, and let the mixture
stand six to eight weeks bofsre using. This
is specially adapted to using in drills for
Turnips. The cheapness and facility of
procuring this wonderful renovato“of the
soil ought to make it one of the first objects
of the farmer (who desires to improve his
land) to obtain it. Nothing in the way of a
fertilizer or renovator has been found equal
to it, as proved by the increased yield of
crops and permanent improve nent of the
soil at a cost less, by far, than any other
manure. We are prepared to furnish PURE
OYSTER SHELL LIME in any quantity
at $lO per ton of 2,000 pounds, free of cart
age, on cars in Port Royal, S. C.

“THE BOYS IN GREY.”
WE were wont to admire the boys who
V T 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 fine 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 von olf 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.
