Fatal Accident at the Augusta Fac
tory.
Yesterday evening a little girl twelve
years old in attempting to slide down
the bannister of the staircase leading
from the fourth story of the Augusta
Factory building, fell to the lower
floor and was crushed to death. We
did not learn the namo of the child.
Rev. David Wills, D. D.
This distinguished divine, in response
to a request from the young men of
Crawfordville, will deliver a locture in
that place next Monday evening, the
2Gth, on “ The Elements of Power.”
Wo think a lecture in Augusta from
Dr. Wills would be quite a treat to our
people. We understand he has recent
ly prepared a powerful and most in
teresting lecture on “ Uncle Tom With
out a Cabin,” which is to be delivered
in Philadelphia. Let us try to have
it hero also. Who will move first in
the matter ?
Augusta as a Port of Delivery.
Roswell King, Esq., Secretary of the
Augusta Exchange, yesterday wrote to
the Secretary of the Treasury, Hon. B.
F. Bristow, in behalf of the committee
of ten of the Augusta Exchange, ask
ing what steps wore necessary to again
make Augusta an active port of de
livery. The act making Augusta a
port of delivery, passed just previous
to the war, has not been repealed, but
sinco the war it has never been used as
such. Mr. Thomas W. Fleming was
the first Collector of Customs at this
point.
Native Art.
Mr. Frank Simmons, of this city, has
recently exhibted some specimens of
crayon portraiture which display won
derful fidelity to nature and a true
gepius for art. His copies of photo
graphic pictures aro every way admir
able. In the photographic picture
there is nearly always somo stiffness.
In Mr. Simmons’ copy, the likeness to
the subject is preserved, but graco and
vitality added. We hope so promising
and excellent a native artist will meet
with abundant patronage and encour
agement.
We republish the above notice In a
correct form, the compositor and proof
reader having made nonsense of it
yesterday.
Haverly’s Minstrels.
They were hero again last night. A
largo audience wenf out to seo them,
and their performance was better than
it was the first night they were with us
last week. This is enough said. They
go hence to Atlanta, and we aro sure
the rollicking Atlantians will greatly
enjoy the singing, and sayings and
doings of the minstrels.

Atlanta, Ga., October 19,1874.
Gentlemen : I have received your
letter of the 16th, requesting mo to
deliver an address on the political
questions of tho day in Augusta* “ be
tween this and 3d of November.” A
request so numerously signed by gen
tlemen of such high character, repre
senting all business pursuits, I do not
feel at liberty, under existing circum
stances, to decline. Providenco permit
ting, I will deliver the address. I sug
gest tho day or night of Monday next,
the 26th, or any other day or night of
that week you may prefer.
With high regard, I am yours very
truly, Benj. H. Hill.
Messrs. Hull, Black, Barnes, Snead,
Cohen, Wright and others.
Federal Troops in Hamburg.
Yesterday morning a detachment of
Federal troops arrived in Hamburg,
S. C., from Charleston, on the regular
night train of the South Carolina Rail
road. The detachment consists of
thirty-six enlisted men, of Company H,
First United States Artillery, acting as
infantry, under command of Captain
and Brevet Major, W. L. Haskin, who
is the only commissioned officer pres
ent.
Capt. Haskins, a very gentlemanly
officer, has no Idea how long he is to
remain in Hamburg with his command.
The company has been stationed at the
Citadel in Charleston for some time
past. It is probable it will remain in
Hamburg until after tho Novembe r
election.
Criminal Recklessness.
Somebody has been engaged of late
in killing, with slings and cap pistols,
pigeons on a vacant lot in the rear of
Mrs. DoLaigle’s residence, cornar of
Greene and Monument streets. And in
shooting and throwing at the pigeons,
serious results have moro than once
come near taking place. Balls aimed
at the birds havo twice broken
the window glass in Mrs. De-
Laigle’s houso, and on one occa
sion a ball, evidently from a sling,
crashed through a window-pane and
came near hitting a lady in .tho house.
Wo aro glad to be able to say that the
guilty parties havo been “spotted,” and
it is not probable that any moro of this
criminal recklessness will be displayed
in that quarter at any rate. Such out
rageous conduct should bo stopped
and tho perpetrators dealt with “ac
cording to law.”
“Oglethorpe B.”
As will be seen from our special dis
patch from Atlanta, tho Oglethorpe B
boys have carried the day in Atlanta,
at the State Fair. Three cheers for
them! Now, if tlio Augusta firemen
can win in their contest, (and wo believe
they can and will), our city will be
doubly distinguished. Let us givo the
Oglethorges a rousing welcome on
their return. They havo worked hard
for their laurels and have no doubt
fairly won them.
The Prince of Wales’ Last.
His Royal Highness has been detect
ed in many an act which has startled
the Queen. The last of which is said
to be the ordering of $20,000 worth of
tickets for the Public Library of Ken
tucky. Her Majesty, it ia stated, did
not object to his buying liberally, but
in tho present condition of the Prince’s
finances, she thought §20,000 worth
was too much for him to invest. It is
assorted that ho insistod on sending his
order to Governor Bramletto, assuring
his royal mother that ho knew what he
was about, for that as $2,500,000 was to
be distributed to the ticket holders on
November 30, and in such gifts as
$250,000, &c,, he would have a splendid
chance at one of these splendid prizes,
and thus, easily pay his debts.

Fair Notes.
We see, from the Constitution, that,
in the Home Industry Department,
Miss Meta McLaws, one of Augusta’s
most charming and accomplished young
ladies, exhibits a very beautiful silk
quilt.
Mrs. L. F. Jack exhibits an exquisi
tely embroidered silk sack, and also a
very beautiful embroidered merino
sack.
Mrs. J. M. Clark exhibits a very much
admired embroidered flannel.
Mrs. N. K. Butler exhibits some very
beautiful pillow slips.
Mrs. Jenkins exhibits a very lovely
and exquisitely made Afghan.
The above named are all Augusta
ladies.
The Constitution of Wednesday also
says:
“ Oglethorpe Infantry Company B.
from Augusta, reached here yesterday
morning, and were escorted to the
armory of the Governor’s Guards,
where they were quartered and attend
ed. Capt. J. O. Clarke and thirty-seven
rank and file present a soldierly ap
pearance.”
Well Worth Reading.
Who is there that does not desire to
be always exempted from indigestion—
to have a good appetite, a painless
stomach, a clear head, a regular pulse,
a healthy complexion ? If this meets
the eye of any who are not thus bless
ed, let them try Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters. We guarantee that this de
lightful tonic will restore any stomach,
however weak, to a healthy condition ;
that it will bring back the truant ap
petite, and give permanent vigor to
the whole system. The feeble and
emaciated, suffering from dyspepsia
or indigestion in any form, aro advised,
for tho sake of their own bodily and
mental comfort, to try it. Ladies of the
most delicate constitutions testify to
its harmless and its restorative proper
ties. Physicians everywhere, disgusted
with the adulterated liquors of com
merce, prescribe it as tho safest and
most reliable of all stomachics.

Fairbanks’ Scales. — Although manu
facturers generally complain, and with
reason, it is necessary to say that there
are exceptional cases of very excellent
trade. During tho present month,
Fairbanks & Cos. have received more
orders for scales of all sizes than in
any previous corresponding period of
the year.
Their connections have now extend
ed to tho Island of Java, from which
far-eastern spot they have this week
received a commission to mako large
scales with Asiatic and Spanish
weights. This, like similar orders to
their factories, came through the Brit
ish metropolis, and passed by the great
European scale makers. Their scales
are becoming more and more the
standards of tho world, and tho won
der is that many other manufacturing
departments in metal goods do not
keep up with the Fairbanks’ Scales in
foreign and homo markets.
