To-Night's Grand Festival.
At the Lady Washington Tea Party

cuting for any article.
The lady managers of the tea party
having invited our military to take part,
Oglethorpe Infantry Company B, held
a meeting last evening, and unani
mously voted to attend ithe festival in
full uniform. The presence of such a
splendid body of military men in their
handsome uniforms will add greatly to
the eclat of the occasion. We trust
other military companies will follow
Company B’s noble example.
Personal.
We had the pleasure of meeting, on
yesterday, the very popular and
courteous conductor on the Athens

Many years ago, Prof. Longfellow
contemplated making a collection of
representative Christmas literature.
He gathered much material for such a
publication, but did nothing more
toward it, until, loarning that another
was at work in the same field, he gen
erously placed his gleanings at the
service of the latter, Mr. Philip Gates,
of New York. His book, “Christmas
in Song and Story,” will be published
immediately by James Cockroft & Cos.,
in a large red-line quarto, with a hun
dred illustrations by Foster, Dore and
others. The poems selected number
about fifty, from a wide range of
poets, led by Milton, and these are
supplemented by some Christmas
sketches in prose, including the
“Christmas Carol,” and pieces by
Irving, Auerbach and Andersen. Thack
eray’s “The end of the Play,” concludes
the volume.
Take Care ol‘ the Children.
A mother writing in the Household,
says that she made her little one’s
night dress of cotton flannel, with legs
to them, so that if he got uncovered he
should not take cold. Observing that
he lost flesh and grew cold toward
morning, she called in a physician. She
continues :
“He said that cotton flannel was not
the material for children, for when it
gets wet it clings to them and is as sold
as ice. He also denounced the idea of
makiDg legs to the dresses; said that
the limbs should not be separated; but
should come together. His directions
were to make a night dress of flanuel
long enough to lay on the floor half a
yard, just like a big bag; run a string
in the bottom of this, and when the
child goes to bed tie it up. In this way
the legs can not get out, and there is
perfect freedom of motion. We did so
at once, and It worked like a charm.
No more lying awake nights and won
dering what the trouble is. The little
fellow sleeps soundly, and wakes Iu the
morning refreshed and with a good ap
petite.” K .
“Anything to Beat Grant!”
When our neighbor, E. R. Schneider,
sent in several colored “ puesons ” last
eveniug, with a generous supply of
stewed oysters, we felt, after reading
about seventy-five pages of telegraph
manifold, containing a portion of the
President’s message, that such an in
terruption was one could allow at
any hour of the day or night. The
bivalves were delicious, and we were
going to add, our force of thirty per
sons, from the editor-in-chief to the
“ devil,” enjoyed them, when lo! and
behold, in steps the “devil,” who,
by the way, ain’t a bit like Me
phisto, but, on the contrary, looks like
the intelligent sort of a youth found
in the “amen corner,” and declines to
eat “the biled Eysters but likes ’em
raw.” So we leave the “devil” out,
and say, Schneider’s delicious oysters
cannot be beat. This timely supply of
rations is “a revival” which to our
mind, beats the best efforts of Moody
and Sankey, and reminds one of ante
bellum days, when all]hands had a gen
erous supper on the night when the
President’s Message was received. Our
employers, at whose expense the oys
ters were furnished, will please accept
our thanks; George, bring in another
stew ! _
The Melon Trade.
A gentleman of this city hands us
the following statistics of the amount
of shipments of watermelons during
the past summer:
Over the Central Railroad from Au
gusta, Allen’s Station, Hollywood,
and Mcßean’s, to Savannah 90,950

plantation of Pollard & Cos.
Amusements.
The Savannah News speaks of the I
Holman Opera Troupe thus :
A fine audience greeted the Holman Eng- j
lish Opera Troupe last evening, on the oc- j
casiou of their first appearance here this
season. The popular opera, “Girofie- 1
Girofla,” was presented, and was received
throughout with manifestations of ap- j
proval. Miss Sallie and Miss Julia Holman !
were excellent in their respective roles, and
their appearance on the stage was the sig
nal for applause. They had fair support,
and afforded the audience a most agreeable
evening. To-night, the last of the com
pany, will be given the favorite opera, Mad.
Angot’s Daughter, a production replete
with delightful musical gems aud amusing
selections. Those who have not already
secured tickets should do so without delay,
and not let the weather deter them from
attending, as we can assure them of a
pleasant evening.
A bold departure has been made by
this company, in advertising that our
Opera House will be thoroughly cleaned,
so that ladies need have no fear of having
their clothes injured. No one will com
plain at this announcement. After play
ing their Augusta engagement, they go
to San Francisco, under Mr. Haverley’s
management, to fill an engagement of
ten weeks. •
Haverley’s Minstrels appeared before
a fine audience last evening at the
Opera House. The fame of this supe
rior troupe is so well established, that
it is scarcely necessary to say their en
tertainment was in every particular
oue that gave entire satisfaction. We
were disappointed at the few ladies
present, because the troupe is com
posed of a class of burnt cork artists,
that have talent enough to please,
without descending to vulgarity and
low wit. There is not a feature of
their performance that would offend
the most fastidious. The handsome
agent, Harry Clapham, and who is not
above taking tickets at the door, is one
of those gentlemen whom people are
glad to meet. Frillman, the basso, a
new addition, has a voice of great com
pass, and was deservedly encored.
Milt. Barlow and George Wilson,
the best end men in the United
States, were as usual, par excellence.
Edward French, the baujoist, and
Primrose and West, the cloggists, were
encored several times. The song,
“When the Moon is Out To-night,” was
sung by Thomas B. Dixou, the tenor,
and Henry W. Roe, the baritone, ren
dered the song, “The Day when You’ll
Forget Me,” in an artistic manner.
Mr. Roe has a voice of extreme flexi
bility.
The whole company is superior, and
the vocal and instrumental efforts can
not be excelled by any Ethiopian com
pany on the road.

Cavalry Survivors’ Association.
The regular monthly meeting of the
Cavalry Survivors’ Association, was
held last night at the rooms of the
Association on Campbell street, when
resolutions of respect to the memory
of Mr. Solomon a recently
deceased comrade, were adopted.
The Association will probably have a
sociable or entertainment during the
coming holidays. A special meeting
will be held next Tuesday night to fur
ther consider the matter and perfect
the arrangements for the affair.
This organization, but recently form
ed, already has a large membership of
survivors of the Confederate cavalry,
living in and near Augusta, and its in
fluence for good is felt in a marked de
gree.
Admitted to the Bar.
The following young gentlemen have
been examined and admitted to prac
tice law in the courts of this State.
George W. Warren, W. E. Jackson, Jr.,
and D. F. Myers. The examiners were
Major Cumming, J. C. C. Black, Esq.,
F. H. Miller, Esq., and Davenport Jack
son, Esq. It was a rigid ordeal to pass,
but the young gentlemen passed a fine
examination.
Fashionable Gossip.
Riding habits are now trimmed with
gold and silver braid, with buttons to
match.
Anew evening dress for the ladies is
made to button on the shoulders. It
is without sleeves, and has arm-holes
open to the waist.
Vails fastened at the back of the hat
and tied loosely around the neck, are
quite popular.
Soft hats for gentlemen are displac
ing the hard stove pipes.
FOR THE CAMPAIGN OF 1876.
The Augusta Constitutionalist.
The Proprietors would announce that the i
Augusta Constitutionalist will take a
leading part in the coming Presidential
and Gubernatorial Campaigns of 1876.
Next year an election will be held for
President and Vice-President of the United
States. * In Georgia a Governor and other
State officers, memb ts of Congress and
members of the Legislature are to be
chosen.
It is already known that the Presidential
contest will be the most exciting, and cer
tainly the most important which has oc
curred since 1860. Upon a truthful press
the people must almost wholly rely for
accurate information, in order to act intel
ligently and in eoncert. To our immediate
section, it is of the first importance that its
voice should be heard by the country at
large, its necessities known aud the legisla
tion it needs in Congress, and the future
policy of the Government, through its
Executive, made perfectly clear.
The Constitutionalist has a stiong
corps of editors and correspondents em
ployed, and will devote a largo amount of
its space to the Presidential and the Btate
campaign.
But it will not be altogether political—it
will then, as now, publish each morning in
its Daily, every other day in its Tri-
Weekly, and its Weekly, the very latest
news received up to three o’clock on the
morning of publication. This will include
telegraphic dispatches from all portions of
the United States, dispatches by cable
from the Old World, the markets at home
and from Europe, a daily resume of Geor
gia and South Carolina local news, the
decisions of the Supreme Court of Georgia,
and, lastly, the local news of the city of
Augusta.

To the Editor of the Constitutionalist:
Dear Sir—Being a stranger in this
city, and knowing your willingness to
expose any imposture, I beg to call
your attention to the following :
I arrived in this city this morning,
and, iu my capacity as Agent of the
“ Holman Opera Company,” sent for
the bill-poster—one J. F. Heuisler. The
true character of this man had been
told me by several of my brother
agents, but, believing in the bid adage,
“ Speak of a man as you find him,” I
made up my mind to treat him as a
gentleman. He came to see me, and
made a very uujust demand l'or a pre
posterous number of admission tickets,
besides the regular price of bill-post
ing. I tried to reason with him. but to
no avail; be making the remark that
he could do as he pleased, as he had
full control of all the bill-boards in
the city, aud that if I did
not choose to come to his terms,
he would do all he could to in
jure my company, the reputation of
which it is unnecessary for me to pass
any remarks upon. I came to the con
clusion that I would not be swindled,
and consequently will not cover the
walls with my large posters, knowing
that you will use your best endeavors
for the success of the Holmans, and
that the time has come that. a merito
rious entertainment will always meet a
welcome in Augusta. Trusting that
you will give the above spa’.-e iu the
columns of your valuable paper, I re
main, very respectfully, yours,
Ernest Stanley,
Agent Holman English Opera Cos.
Particulars of Fetuer’s Arrest,
On Sunday morning James Fetner,
the engineer at whose door is laid the
responsibility of the recent accident on
the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta
Railroad, by which was entailed a great
loss of life and property, was brought
td this city on the Air-Line t ain. He
got on the train at Atlanta, and, it hav
ing been ascertained who he was, the
conductor, A. J. Vickers, and the bag
gage master, H. Sidebottom, took him
under arrest, tied him, and brought
him to this city, in order to
obtain the reward which had
been offered for him. Fetner made
no resistance, but stated that he was
willing to go, since he was then on his
way to Columbia to give himself up.
Arriving in this city, his captors at
tempted to put him on the Columbia
train, but acting under the advice of
friends, he flatly refused to go, and
Deputy Sheriff Farrow was sent for.
Tho officer hamffcuffed him iu the of
fice of the Central Hotel and carried
him to jail, where he now remains. A
telegram was sent to Gov. Chamber
lain, apprising him of tho arrest and
confinement, and he will no doubt at
once make a requisition upon Gov.
Brogdeu for the prisoner. Fetner was
drunk at the time of his arrest.
There was quite a company of rail
road men*in the office of the hotel
when the man was hand-cuffed, and
their murmurings were very audible.
They were very free in their denuncia
tions of the conductor and baggage
master for having “gone back on a
railroad man,” and these found few to
take their parts. Fetner is unques
tionably a guilty man and should bo
punished, but when you look at it in the
light of railroad men having captured
an unresisting railroad man, for money,
the affair does not show so very well
for the captors. —[Charlotte Observer.
Evolution and Religion.— Tho Cath
olic Telegraph, at New York, comment
ing on Professor Proctor’s ch singe of
base, claims that “evolution,” in any
but the most sweeping sense, is entirely
compatible with the Catholic faith. It
points out that St.. Augustine taught
the development of life from the inor
ganic, and that tho fathers were nearly
all agreed that the creative days were
vast periods, of which our days are
only the faintest types. Even man, so
far as he is an animal, may be safely
viewed as a product of evolution. All
thesejquestions, the editor claims, be
longs to science, and not to religion.
He insists only that the soul be re
served for au Immediate act of the
Creator.
Suicide of a Minister’s Daughter.—
Miriam, the youngest daughter of the
Rev. Thomas Hanford, pastor of the
First Baptist Church of Hamilton,
Ohio, committed suicide by drowning
on Saturday. She left home for school
as usual, aud the first known of the af
fair was a note left for her father at a
grocery store. It is stated that she
had maturely considered the matter,
and was determined to put an end to
her existence. The body was recover
ed. No cause but temporary insanity
is assigned.

It is a pity that the poet Childs

Sketches of Officers Elect.
Mr. Kerr, the Speaker, was a most
active member of the Forty-Second
Congress. Ho is tall, thin and very
spare. His face is thin and angular.
His eyes glow from under strong pro
jecting eyebrows. He wears a sort of
lap-robe beard of a sandy color. He
is considerably bald, with a thick lower
growth of sandy hair. His dress is of
rusty black, which flaps and clings to
him like wet garments huug up to dry.
He has a voice as clear as a bugle,
aud, while he cannot be classed as an
orator in the popular sense of the
word, his friends ought to thank God
for it. The day of froth and flowers is
gone iu Congress. The era of cut and
thrust, of sledgehammer effects, has
dawned. Asa speaker suited to the
demands of modern times, Kerr made
a place for himself in Congress that has
not been surpassed by the presence of
any other member upon hi3 side of the
House. He possessed dauntless cour
age, and his power of logic made him a
most powerful antagonist. His loug
figure would swing to and fro, his arms
swing iu the air in the most wonderful
manner at times, but the substance of
his remarks always overcomes his un
gracefulness in capturing interest.
Georgo M. Adams, the Clerk, was
born in Knox county, Kentucky, De
cember 20,1837; was educated at Cen
tre College, Danville, Kentucky; stud
ied law; was Clerk of the Circuit Court
of Knox county from 1859 to 1861; he
raised a company in August, 1861, aud
entered the Union army as captaiu in
the Seventh Kentucky Volunteers; in
August, 1861, he was appointed pay
master of volunteers, and served in
that capacity until the close of the war;
I was elected to the Fortieth, Forty-first
| and Forty-second Congresses, aud was
i re-elected to the Forty-third Congress
as a Democrat, receiving 9,684 votes
against 8,199 votes for Wood, Republi
can.
Mr. John G. Thompson, the new Ser
geant-at-Arms, is a prominent citizen
of Ohio; has been Chairman of the
Democratic State Committee for a
number of years, and is in the prime of
life, and is an active, energetic man, of
popular and agreeable manners.
Mr. Fitzhugh, the doorkeeper, is a
citizen of Texas, aud is well known in
that section. He was Sergeant-at-
Arms to the Confederate Congress. He
will have the disposition of more
patronage than any of the ocher officers,
having some very good places iu his
gift.
Captain James M. Stouart, the Post
master of the House of Representa
tives, is a native of Alexandria, Va.
He emigrated to St. Louis when quite a
young man, aud accompanied General
Price in the New Mexican expedition
during the Mexican war. He afterwards
located himself at Tuolumne county,
Cal., aud served as sheriff until the
breaking out of the late war, when he
left California and rode on horseback
through Mexico to the Rio Grande, and
w'as, on his arrival at Richmond,
chosen captain of one of the Alexandria
companies in the Confederate service.
At the close of the war he returned to
Alexandria, and was soon elected City
Sergeant by a vote substantially unani
mous. He resigned before the close of
his term, and has since been engaged
in settling up the business. No man
has ever been so popular iu his native
town as he. He is over six feet in
height and well built iu proportion.
Rev. Mr. Townsend, the Chaplain, is
a popular divine of Washington City,
formerly from Connecticut. He is the
rector of the Protestant Episcopal
Church of the Incarnation.

OYSTER SHELL LIME.
The Cheapest and Best Fertilizer in
Use in Georgia.
VTOTHfNG in the way of a Fertilizer and
JLN 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. Litne 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 every 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. In 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 ical compost fertilizer may be 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 renovator 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 anrl permanent improvement 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.
We also have a Compound for Prevent
ing Hot iu Grapes for sale at SSO per ton.

“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 tine 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
hail - . 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.
