Christmas Tree.
Elsewhere to-day we print a notice from
the ladies of the parish of the Sacred Heart
announcing that they will open a Bazar in
connection with a Christmas Tree, on Broad
street, between Kollock and Marbury, Tues
day evening, December 19th. This will be
a fine opportunity ior enjoyment, especially
for the little people, and everybody should
go and take their little ones.
Hebrew Sunday School Fair.
As will be seen from our advertising col
umns, the fair of the above Sunday School
will be opened next Tuesday evening. The
ladies in charge have taken great trouble to
make the fair a success and their efforts
should certainly be rewarded. Lunch and
dinner can be had at very small prices and
will be served by the fairest of the fair. On
Thursday evening a representation of
Mother Goose’s melodies will be given and
the young folks should be taken to wit
ness it.
Fire at the Lunatic Asylum.
Early Friday night the laundry room of
the Lunatic Asylum at Milledgeville caught
fire accidentally. The flames were soon
commumceted to the machine and wood
works and at the time our informant left the
place, 11 p. m., Friday, the fire was still
burning, but was thought to bo under con
trol. Extra efforts were then being made
to keep the fire from the gas house of the
Asylum.
It is thought the loss will be quite heavy.
There was no insurance upon any of the
buildings in agencies in this city so far as
we could learn.
Real Estate Agency.
Mr. M. Hyams certainly conferred a ben
efit upon a large number of people when
lie opened his real estate agency, a fact
which is amply attested by the liberal pa
tronage he receives. He is not afraid to
advertise, and his business has been increas
ing day by day. We are glad to note his
scccess. He has given general satisfaction
to his patrons, all of whom commend him
for his energy in transacting business. The
secret of his success is that he gives his
whole personal attention and makes real
estate a specialty and does not engage in any
other kind of business, which is a great ad
vantage to real estate owners who place
their property in his hands for sale or to
rent.
Yellow Fever in Augusta.
During the proceedings of the State
Board of Health on Friday, which has been
in session in Savannah the past week, Dr-
Logan, of Atlanta, said that reliable infor
mation had been received of the prevalence
during the summer of yellow fever in both
Augusta and Macon, and suggested that the
board should take some action in regard
thereto. He had heard from good authority
that Augusta had narrowly escaped an epi
demic of the fever, and it was important
that the board should be fully advised upon
the subject. It was resolved, on motion,
that Dr. Campbell, of this city, be requested
to prepare a paper enlightening the board
in regard to the existence and character of
the fever here, and also that a leading phy
sician of Macon be called upon for the
same information.
A Radical Appointed.
The Columbus Enquirer is justly indig
nant over the fact that Governor Smith has
re-appointed K. S. Mott, of that place, as
one of the four Trustees of the Lunatic
Asylum. Col. Mott is a leading Radical of
the State. He is Markham’s right bower.
He was a delegate to the Convention
that nominated Hayes and Wheeler. He
voted for them. He has voted for Grant
every time he was a candidate, and boldly
sustains him in all his bayonet proceedings.
He is a full-fledged Radical, and has never
raised his voice against the acts and doings
of the military despot now crushing the
South. Yet Governor Smith selects this
man from 200,000 Georgians for a position
of honor and trust. Asa Georgian, as a
Democrat, we protest." And yet the Gov
ernor of a Democratic State warms a polit
ical viper into life, and calmly makes ar
rangements to be elected United States Sen
ator ! Cheek.
The Blackville Fire—The Insurance—
Prompt Payment.
We are reliably informed that the fire at
Blackville, on Thursday last, was not so
disastrous as at first supposed. It is now
ascertained that the k>3s will not much ex
ceed $16,000, onj which there was an insur
ance of about SIO,OOO, the major portion of
which was insured in offices in Charleston
and Columbia. Some $1,600 was, however,
in the popular and promptly paying office
of Mr. C. W. Harris, of this city, and was,
we understand, adjusted by that gentleman
yesterday. Such promptness deserves no
tice, and parties desiring insurance should j
govern themselves accordingly.
Last week Mr. Harris also piid $20,000
on life policies in the gEtna Life Insurance
Company, for which he is General Agent
for Georgia and South Carolina, SIO,OOO
of which was on the life of the late Col. Z.
H. Clark, of Oglethorpe county, and
SIO,OOO on the life of the late Jonathan
Collins, of Macon.
Admitted to the Bar.
On yesterday Henry Cranston, Esq., was
examined in open Court for admission to
the Bar. The committee appointed to con
duct the examination consisted of John S.
Davidson, Esq., F. T. Lockhart, Esq., H.
Clay Foster, Esq., and the Solicitor-Gene
ral. The applicant indicated by his answers
a thorough knowledge of those legal sub
jects upon which the law requires an ex
amination, and convinced all who were
present that he was well prepared. At the
conclusion of the examination by the com
mittee, Judge Gibson stated that while he
was satisfied he would propound two ques
tions, and facetiously asked what was the
first duty of a lawyer after his client had
fully stated his case? The answer came
promptly, “To arrange for * proper fee.”
“And the next duty ?” “To fully prepare
his case and do ail you can to win it."
We wish Mr. Cranston much success in
his chosen profession, and believe that with
a continuance of that application already
shown upon his part, he will win fame and
fortune.

Georgia Railroad and Banking Cos.. 1
Augusta, Ga., December 12, 1876. J
At a meeting of the Board of Directors
of this company, held this day, the Hon.
David E. Butler, after a few appropriate
and becoming remarks, submitted the fol
lowing :
Ihe committee to whom was assigned
the duty of preparing a suitable expres
sion of the feelings of this Board ia refer
ees to the death of Dr. Elijah £. Jones,
submit the following report:
When the death or Dr. Elijah E. Jones
was announced to us, it was received with
sadness and sorrow. His long service on
t “i ß . Koa r d v lll9 ever active interests in the
affairs or tbecompanv, his wise counsels
aud safe judgment have contributed very
greatly to the prosperity and healthy oon
ditionj of its business. He was one of the
earliest stockholders, being present at the
first annual convention, in 1835, and was
first elected a Director in May. 1837. With
but few exceptions he has been present at
every succeeding convention of the stock
holders, and at every annual election has
been made a Director, including the meet
ing in May, of the present year. Except
the President, Hon. John P. King, and Mr.
J. W. Davies, Dr. Jones has attended more
meetings of the stockholders and Direc
tors of this company than any other mem
ber of the Board.
By this punctuality and constant atten
t on to the duties of his position he became
ramiliar with the daily history of the com
pany’s affairs, its policy and management.
Thus qualified, and possessing a mind
quick to perceive and prompt to determine,
he made one of our best Directors, aud
safest advisors. Our prosperity in the past
and freedom from embarrassment, while
so many railroads in the country are in
financial troubles, is due, in part at least,
to his strict observance of those great rules
in life, viz;
Promptness and faithfulness to every
obligation, and economy in every depart
ment of the company’s affairs. Asa man,
Dr. Jones was kind, genial, firm aud true
to his friends. He was successful in both
his profession and business. Ilia relation
ships in liie were cordial and lasting., and
eilaed only with his life.
He died at the advanced age of 82 years,
at his home, on the 3d clay of November,
1876, honored byhisfellow-citizensof every
class and condition and ioved by his friends.
His services oa this Board extended
through a period of thirty-nine years, and
therefore justly demands from us some fit
testimonial of our high regard for ids
memory as a man, citizen and efficient offi
cer ; therefore be it
Resolved, Ist, That by the death of Dr.
Elijah E. Jones, of Madison, Morgan
county, Georgia, the Georgia Railroad and
Banking Company has lost a wise, prudent
and devoted friend and Director.
2d, That this report be recorded in the
minutes on a page set apart for that pur
pose, as the best tken of our appreciation
of his long and valuable services.
3d, That a copy of this report bo fur
nished to his family, with whom we sym
pathize, ana now share with them in this,
their sad bereavement.

“We call attention to the advertise
ment of Simmons’ Liver Regulator, which
appears in the paper to-day. This stand
ard remedy does not deserve to be classed
with the many ‘patent’ nostrums so liberal
ly advertised throughout the country, it
is one of the very best preparations of its
kind in use ; and is recommended by the
regular practitioners of medicine. It has
a large sale in this city, and can be found
in all our drug stores. A bottle or package
should be found in every family, as its ju
dicious use is almost certain to prevent a
Bilious attack, if taken when the symp
tom first show themselves.”
The Seven Springs iron and Alum
Mass.— Testimony from Bishop Pierce:
I take pleasure in commending the Sev*-n
Springs “Iron and Alum Mass” to all who
may need a simple and efficient remedy for
the ordinary ills to which flesh is heir to.
To some of tny friends it has been invalua
ble as a tonic and restorative. I know one
case of remarkable recovery from chronic
dyspepsia, it is a “panacea ’ for sick head
ache, both to cure when it comes, and to
prevent if taken in time. One great virtue
is, it is not bad to take, not often true of
physic. Respectfully,
G. F. Pierce, Sparta, Ga.
Further comment on the virtues of this
valuable medicine would seem unnecessary.
The above testimony from Bishop Pierce
expresses the sentiments of thousands of
others who have used this simple medi
cine. There are various other diseases in
which this Mass is used, with the same
satisfactory results, and especially in Fe
male Complaints. This Mass can be had
at the Drug Stores of Jas. H. Alexander,
Broad Street. Augusta, Ga., Fleming Bros.,
and from Druggists generally. Every
family should use this Mass. octltl
Joy to the World! Woman ia Free!
Among the many modern discoveries
looking to the happiness and amelioration
of the human race, none is entitled to
higher consideration than the renowned
remedy—Dr. J. Bradfiold’s Female Kegu
ulator, Woman's Best Friend. By It woman
is emancipated from numberless ills pecu
liar to her sex. Before its magic power all
irregularities of the womb vanish, it cures
whites. It cures suppression of the menses.
It removes uterine obstructions. It cures
constipation and strengthens the system.
It braces the nerves and purifies the blood,
it never falls as thousands of women will
testify. This valuable medicine is pre
pared and sold by L. H. Bradtield, Drug
gi-t, Atlanta, Ga. Price SI.OO per bottle. All
respectable drug meu keep it.
Sound and Well.
Atlanta, Ga., December 29,1868.
Dr. J. Bradjltld:
Dear Sib: I take pleasure in stating
that, sometime previous to the late war, I
used, with the utmost success, on a ser
vant girl, your Female Regulator, pre
pared then at Bradtleld's Drug Store, West
Point, Ga. She had been suffering severely
from suppressed menstruation, and this
medicine soon restored her to health. She
is to-day living in Atlanta sound and well.
I will state farther, that I know of its be
ing used with equal success In other oases.
I do not hesitate to endorse your prepara
tion for the purpose for which you recom
mend it.
Yours truly,
John 0. Whitner.
