drinking gull ids. powder gourds, dar

gourds, soap gourds, m snort all va
rieties ol big and little gourus—in
Admits during the ensuing autumn,
witli perhaps an accompanying sup
per, nt which ail the drinking—well
water, of course—shall be from
gourds; the collection ofs;»eciment
to remain for permanent examina
tion at some suitable place for the
benefit of citizens and strangers
alike.
In this movement there is to W
■o thought of politics, no new or o'd
south, nothing bu good humor und
a thsiie to revive the plmisunr mem
oiies of (lie.past, to Pitjjy the present
und to benefit the future.

Another delegation of straight-
eut Virginia Republicans called ut
tho White Houso on Friday and
had a long and ournest interview
with President Garfield. They
protested against Maliouo being

advocated the' claims of the

lie President to rocoj^llwlWi

Virginia that upholds truly tho Re
publican party, ami expressed
their ilctenuinbd opposition to Re-

element. They requested tho re
moval of Collector J. I) Brady (Re-
adjustor) from tho internal revenue
district of Petersburg, and also the
removal ot Colonel J). G. l’otts.

place. The President replied that

(which is being drawn 1141 by Mesara

the corporators will bo given, for-
tho purpose of erecting another
mammoth cotton mill on the hanks
(ifTh# ‘AVghsbi canal*’ • ^
This new enterprise Is to lie
known ns the “King Manufactu
ring Company,” minted in honor of
Hon. John P. King, one of Augus
ta’s oldest ami most, worthy citi
zens. Tho sum of oue million dol-.
lars will ho raised tor that purpose.
Some of our own beat known
capitalists, we learn, are deeply in
terested as well aa largo moneyed
parties from other piaee*. No
place hus ns yet been determined
upon for a site, hut the many*eligi
ble locations all along the canal
from the locks to tho city will be
no barrier on that point.
• It is unnecessary to speculate up-
ou tho groat advantages Augnsta
will derive from this movement.
They urc patent to all. The name

Judge Treat of the United States
court at St, Louis, has decided that
the Singer sewing machine patents
liuving expired, anybody has the
right to manufacture Singer ma
chines. The suit was for a violation
of the Smgef trade mark, and the
Judge further decided that the plain
tiff cannot cieate a monopoly for the
pructic.il extension of 11 patent be
yond its legal term under the guise
ol a t mde-inark. The vaiious sew
ing machine patents have been an
enormous tux upon the people, and
their expiration cannot fail to reduce
the price of the machines, which
have become a nect-ssity in every
household. The inventors were long
since umplv rewarded for their me
chanical skill employed in the manu
facture of these machines.
The Camming Clarion moralizes
us follows: “It costs four dollars per
ton to wagon guano from I lie Air
Line. Three dollars perTon of thb
could be suved if Forsvtlr county had
a railroad. This would make a sav-
of 4’J,100 a year on guano, freights
alone. One dollar per hale on 5,000
of cotton would make 45,000, and
43,000 is a*low estimate for itniiuul
wagon freights on inerchandis:

are over ten thousand dollars a yeur

do uot build a railroad at once?”
A conespoiTUence dated April 21,
to the Constitution from bmyrna,
says : “ Last night the usual stillness
of tho night and quietudu of ,our
town and vicinity, were most awfully
disturbed by the suddou and territlo
fep ir, of a “bumb shell,” exploding
immediately near the recidenoe of
Mrs. Lovelews. Her eon, Mr. Bunk •
Mugbee, while burning off u new
ground near the house, piled 'brush’
ou an old stump, und in his rounds
of chunking up, while in the act of
mending the Are” on (he stamp, the
explosion of a large‘shell* occurred,
and from the midst of the smoulder*
ing fire and ashes fragments of shell,
brands ol fire and hot ushes flew in
every direction prodneing a 'lie down*
effect upou everyone who heard it ss
well as upon Mr. Magbee; who was
fortunately Lite only sufferer. Though
he escaped injury from ihe flyiug
fragments of shell, yet he sustained
very serious injuries I rout the hot
embers and flames, burning him ajl
over one side the fuce, neck und
hand, from which his sufferings were
great. At present writing he is un
der the skillful management of Dr.
\V. C.Connally, and we learn resting
well.”
Buffalo Bill played against Baki

that “the public knows 11 good thing

Thera is suid to-He great scarcity
of corn and fodder in many pluces at

people like that can get rich. Too
