thoroughly enjoyed the trip and fully con
curred with our views, recently expressed,
in regard to the energy and vim of the con

Bad News top Ire Consumers.
There is every prospect that during the
coming summer consumers of ice will be
compelled to pay a higher price for this ne
cessity than during any season since the
ice famine of 1871. To make up for the
two years of poor business, all the compa
nies of importance have entered Into an ar
raagemc-nt, it is -aid, to maintain uniform
prices at paying figures. In the event of
their being able to maintain the combina
tion, it will cost hotels and other wholesale
p consumers twenty five cents per cwt -|’am
■ dies will probably have to pay seventy
cents per week AT-o York Star,

Interested from the first, to the last of the
entertainment.

we thank Prof. Cromwell for Ids Art En
tertainments, the mostfiostreetive and
truthful views of points of interest,
in the old world, ever exhibited in this
city.

Our young friend Mr. R. L. Gamble, Jr.,
who has recently graduated with the
highest bonorsof a law student, and located
himself in Louisville for the parpose of
practising his profession, made hla first
appearance In the Superior Court of this
Circuit, at Wrightflvlllo, his Honor Judge
Johnson presiding. Mr. Gamble was asso
ciated with Gen. Carswell in a case of
assault and false Imprisonment, and In his
argument for the defence acquitted himself
very handsomely. His remarks to the jury
and court were characteristic of a highly
intellectual and well informed young
lawyer, and though brief, they were de
livered with a deal of force aud eloquence,
very explicit and to the point. The jury
brought in a verdict of not guilty. -

Oliver Dou<l Byron.
The great spusational drama entitled
“ Across the Continent,” will be performed
at Girardey's Opera House next Tuesday
evening, Oliver Bond Byron, the popular
actor, assuming the principal character.
The Havannah Advertiser, of yesterday, s iys
in regard to the performance of this play in
Savannah:
“ The great, sensational drama entitled
‘ Across the Continent,’ with Oliver Doud
Byron as the chief figure in the plot, was
most acceptably rendered last evening to a
full house. The play is at once novel, and
abounds lu startling scenes an t situations.
Sensational in the strictest sense, it yet
combines much that is true to life, and
throughout points the moral. The last was
extremely good and many of the characters
remarkably correct. The company is well
selected, and the entertainment they offer
cannot, fail to please.”
iHias Patterson’* Readings.
Miss Jeauie Patterson has postponed her
readings and recitations to next Tuesday
evening. The entertainment will takeplace
at Masonic Hall, and will commence at 8
o’clock.
Miss Patterson is one of the South’s most
accomplished daughters, and her noble
efforts to support a family dependent upon
her exertions alone, should meet with lib
eral encouragement from our people- But
aside from the fact that the fair reader Is a
Southern girl, reduced to poverty by the
disastrous results of the war, aud now
struggling like a true woman for a compe
tency not only for herself but those who
are near and dear to her, her entertainments
are really meritorious and worthy of the
patronage of the most cultivated mind.
We feel assured that all who were present
at. Miss Patterson’s readings in this city,
some time since, will support us in this
assertion. We bespeak a crowded bouse
far her, next 'Tuesday evening.
The Propagation of Shad.
One of the Government agents sent out
to promote and encourage the propagation
of shad and other fish in the livers of the
Union, was in our city yesterday, his ob
ject being to increase the number of shad
in the Savannah liver. He claims, we
learn, that he can by a process which he
explained to several gentlemen, hatch out
over a million of shad from the roe of one
fish, in ten minutes. By this process he ex
pects to fully stock the Savannah river with
valuab’e fish in a short time. He went
down to Sand Bar Ferry with a fisher
man, yesterday, for the purpose of demon
strating the process by practical experi
ment.
If the process is as easy as the agent con
tends it is, there Is nothing to prevent the
Savannah river from teeming with shad in
a short time.

Palm Sunday.
This is the day known in the Ca tholic
and Episcopal Churches, as Palm Sunday,
in commemoration of thp strewing of palms
before our Saviour on his entry Into Jeru
salem. The Holy Writ says :
“ And a very great multitude spread
their garments in the way ; others cut
down branches from the trees and strewed
them in the way.
11 Aud the multitudes that weut before
and that followed, cried, saying: Hosanna
to the God of David : Blessed >s he that
cometh in the name of the l ord :
Hosanna in the highest.”
In the Catholic churches the day is ob
served with great solemnity. During High
Mass, palms, or green branches, are dis
tributed from the Sanctuary railing to the
congregation, who then leave the church,
together with the celebrant and acolytes,
and form in procession outside, the doors of
the church being closed. The doors are
again opened in answer to the summons of
the priest and the people enter the church
with palms In their hands, the priest head
ing the procession and chanting the appro
priate services. 'Hie priest then goes to
the altar and concludes the Mass.
The week following Palm Sunday and
preceding Easter Sunday, Is a week of
especial devotion and preparation, being
the close of the Lenten season. The
Tenure are sung each night daring the
week. Good Friday is observed the same
as Sunday, being a holy day of obligation.

Ayer s Ague Cure,
For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &0.,
and indeed all tlio affections which arise
from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic
poisons.
tgx No one remedy is louder
called for by the necessities of
BB * the American people than a
M Hu sure and safe cure for Fever
HI J c ' ll|| l Ague. Such we are now
j f/mr enabled to offer, with a perfect
JS certainty that it will eradicate
* the disease, and with assur
ance, founded on proof, that no harm can arise
from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the com
murfitics where it prevails. Prevention is better
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk which
he must run in violent attacks of this baleful dis
temper. This “Cure” expels the miasmatic
poison of Fever and Ague from the system,
and prevents the development of the disease, if
taken on the first approach of its premonitory
symptoms. It is not only the beet remedy ever
yet discovered for this class of complaints, but
also the cheapest. The large quantity we sup
ply for a dollar brings it within the reach of
everybody; and in bilious districts, where
Fever and Ague prevails, everybody should
have it, and use it freely, both for cure and pro
tection. It is hoped thiaprice will place if within
the reach of all—the as well as the rich.
A great superiority ot this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy‘and certain
cure of Interrnittents is, that it contains no Qui
nine or mineral; consequently it produces no
quinism nr other injurious effects whatever upon
the constitution. Those cured by it are left a3
healthy as if they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of dis
orders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asth
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the Spleen,
Hysterics, Pair*in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis,
and derangement of the Stomach, all of which,
when originating In this cause, put on the in
termittent type,, or become periodical. This
“Cure” expels the poison from the blood, and
consequently cures them all alike. It is an in
valuable protection to immigrants and persons
travelling or temporarily residing in the mala
rious districts. If taken occasionally or daily
while'exposed to the infection, that will bo ex
creted from the system, and cannot accumulate
in sufficient quantity to ripen into disease.
Hence it is even more valuable for protection
than cure; and few will ever suffer from Inter*
mittents if they avail themselves of the protec
tion this remedy affordß.
For TAver Complaints, arising from torpid
ity of tbe Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stim
ulating the Liver into healthy activity, and pro
ducing many truly remarkable cures, where
other medicines fail.

Ayer’s Cathartic Pills,
For the relief aud
cure of all derange-
AtLhZ, ments in the stom
jmtP ach, liver, and bow
els. They are a mild
t, / aperient, and an
excellent purgative.
Being purely vege
table, they contain
" no mercury or rnlne
ral whatever. Much
w . serious sickness and
suffering is prevent
ed by their timely
use; and every family should have them on hand
for their protection and relief, when required.
Long experience has proved them to be the saf
est, surest, and best of all the Pills with which
the market abounds. By their occasional use,
the blood is purified, the corruptions of the sys
tem expelled, obstructions removed, and Che
whole machinery of life restored to its healthy
activity. Internal organs which become clogged
and sluggish are cleansed by Ayer’s Pills, and
stimulated into action. Thus incipient disease
is changed into health, the value of which change,
when reckoned on the vast multitudes who enjoy
it, can hardly be computed. Their sugar coatuig
makes them pleasant to take, and preserves their
virtue:! unimpaired for any length of time, so
that they are ever fresh, and perfectly reliable.
Although searching, thev are mild, and operate
without disturbance to tlio constitution, or diet, or
occupation.
Full directions are given on the wrapper to
each box, how to use them as a Family l'nysic,
and for the following complaints, which these
Pills rapidly cure:
For or lutUg-eitloa. LRtleii*
ueM, languor and Loss of Apiicilto,they
should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom
ach, and restore its healthy tone aud action.
For JLtver Couiplaiat and its various symp
toms, Bilious Hcailaclie, Sick Head*
ache, Jaundice or Green Sickness, BiJ
ions Colic and Bilious Fevers, they should
be judiciously taken for each case, to correct the
diseased action or remove tbe obstructions which
cause it.
For Bywatery or Tiiui-iTioca, but one
mild dose is generally required.
For Eiitamaiu'iit, wont, Gravel, Pal
pitation of the Heart, Pain in the
Mitle, Back and X.oins, they should be contin
uously taken, as required, to change the diseased
action of the system. With such change those
complaints disappear.
For Dronsy and Dropsical Swellings,
thev should be taken in large and frequent doses
to produce the effect of a drastic purge.
For Suppression, a large dose should be
taken, as it produces the desired effect by sym
pathy.
A“s a Dinner Pill, take one or two Pills to
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels, restores the appetite, and invigorates the
< system. Hence it is often advantageous where
no serious derangement exists. One who feels
tolerably well, often finds that a dose of these
Pills makes him feel decidedly better, from their
cleansing and renovating effect on the digestive
apparatus.
