The guests and members last night,

the enjoyment of the evening, and in
the mazy dance wiled away the time
pleasantly, until the we sma hours of

WASHINGTON’S BIRTHDAY.
Celebration Yesterday—Parade of the
Military-The Best Drilled Man-
Tournament of the Richmond Hus
sars.
Yesterday, the 22d, Washington’s
birthday, was celebrated by a parade
of the Augusta Independent Volun
teer Battalion and the Richmond Hus
sars, in the afternoon, when the prize
drill for the gun presented by Lieut.
Col. T. G. Barrett, to be awarded to
the best drilled man in the Battalion,
took place at the Parade Ground.
THE PARADE.
About 2 o’clock p. m., the battalion
formed in front of the Central Hotel,
in the following order:

nor, 40 men, rank and file—left.
The battalion, under command of
Lieut. Col. T. G. Barrett, with Adjt.
Geo. P. Butler and Sergt. Maj. George
N. Garvin of the staff, moved down
Broad street, through Elbert, to the
Parade Ground, with the field band of
Oglethorpe Infantry, Cos. A, in front.
DRILLING FOR THE GUN.
At tho Parade Ground, after a few
movements and a short rest, a detail of
ten men, with an officer from each
company, was made to drill for the
gun, presented by Lieut. Col. Barrett
for the best drilled man.
JUDGES.
Tho following gentlemen were an
nounced as the judges: Gen. C. A.
Evans, Col. E. V. Sharpe, (at one time
Lieutenant Colonel of the battalion be
fore the war), Maj. W. H. Ross, of Ma
con, Capt. J. B. Cumming of the Rich
mond Hussars, and Lieut. B. O. Miller,
of Oglethorpe Infantry, Cos. A.
THE DRILL.
A square was formed and a guard
established, of which none but
the judges, ’officers and men drilling
were allowed.
Ten minutes was the time allowed to
the detail from each company—in
which they went through the manuel
—including loading and firing and the
evolutions under Upton’s tactics.
The following were the details, with
the officers who drilled them—drilling
in the order of seniority of company
commanders:
Oglethorpe Infantry, Cos. A, Lieut. C.
E. Coffin commanding.
Sergt. F. L. Neufville, Sergt. L. T.

After drilling the appointed time, the
Judges decided to reduce the number
drilling to ten, one-fourth of the whole
number (40), and drill them again, when
they chose the following men : Ogle
thorpe Infantry, Cos. A—Sergt. Neuf
ville, W. P. Cole ; Irish Volunteers—T.
D. McDermott, P. D. Horkin ; Ogle
thorpe Infantry, Cos. B.—Sergt. B. Fitz
simmons, J. L. Oakman; Clinch Rifles—
Sergt. E. M. Fitzsimmons, Sergt. M.G.
Oakman, Glover Tompkins.
THE WINNER.
The squad was drilled about fifteen
minutes, when, after consideration, it
was decided that Sergt. M. G. Oakman,
of the Clinch Rifles, had proved him
self the best drilled man and entitled
to the prize.
The announcement was received with
cheers by the comrades of the gallant
young soldier, and, upon the dismissal
of the squad, he was taken upon the
shoulders of some of them and carried
out of the lines, where he was con
gratulated by a number of his friends.
PRESENTATION.
The Battalion was then again form
ed, when Mr. Oakman was called to the
front. Col. Barrett, with the gun in
hand, a handsome nickel plated Spring
field rifle, advanced to Mr. Oakman,
and in a few remarks, presented it to
him as the best drilled man in the Au
gusta Independent Vofunteer Battal
ion. He hoped the recipient would be
as successful in life as in winning this
gun.
Mr. Oakman bowed his acknowledg
ments, and handing the gun he for
merly used to a marker, received the
new gun from the hands of Col. Bar
rett, and with grateful emotions in his
mind, returned to his place in the
ranks.
CHEERS.
Before the presentation Oglethorpe
Infantry, Cos. B, gave three cheers for
the Clinch Rifles. The other compa
nies afterward followed suit, the Clinch
Rifles returning the cheers of each in
turn. ,
The Battalion then performed seve
ral manoeuvres on the ground previous
to returning up town.
THE RICHMOND HUSSARS.
This company, with about thirty
rank and file under command of Capt.
J. B. Cumming, firmed at the Bell
Tower at half past two o’clock, and
proceeded down Greene street, through
Elbert street to the Parade Ground,
peaching it soon after the Battalion.
While the drilling of the infantry
was taking place on another part of
the ground, this company engaged in
a tournament at the southern end, to
decide who should wear the white
plume for the next month —it being
contended for monthly.
The members showed great .profi
ciency in horsemanship and sabre ex
ercise, as evidenced by thescores made.
WINNER OF THE WHITE PLUME.
The plume was won by Sergt. O A.
Fleming, for Mr. W. M. Dunbar, for
whom he rode, making 51 points. He
mad<*so points in the ride for himself.
Mr. Dunbar wore the white plume last
month, and now has it for another
month.
A RUNAWAY AND ALMOST AN ACCIDENT.
While the tournament was in pro
gress the horse rode by Mr. Jos.
Thomas, son of Captain J. Jefferson
Thomas, ran away, and coming at a
rapid rate around the lower side, next
to the cemetary, continued up the
Watkins street fence, and caused a
stampede of spectators. A little girl,
daughter of Mr. Killingsworth Mc-
Gowan, in attempting to get out of the
way fell over a scantling lying on the
ground, striking the side of her face
on it, and also causing her nose to
bleed. She soon recovered herself,
however, two physicians being present
and assisting her, when it was found
she was hurt but little.
A lady, who was near the little girl,
was so frightened in attempting to get
out of the way of the horse, that it was
sometime before she regained her com
posure.
Tho horse, with his rider, jumped
the fence at the corner of Elbert and
Watkins streets, when the young man
was thrown to the ground, but not
seriously hurt, as he was soon on his
feet, while the animal ran up the street,
but afterward was caught. Mr. Thomas
struggled bravely to control his horse,
and managed to guide him until he
reached the corner, where he jumped
and threw him.
AMOVING OFF.
The battalion moved off after ma
noeuvering on the ground, taking up
the line of march through Elbert
street to Greene, up to" Campbell,
thence to and down Broad street to
the Central Hotel.
The Richmond Hussars followed the
battalion from the Parade Ground and
came up Broad street.
DRESS PARADE—SPECIAL ORDERS READ.
In front of the Central Hotel, the
battalion formed with the Richmond
Hussars on the right, fronting south,
when dress parade took place, and the
following special orders were read :
Hdqrs. Ind. Vol. Bat. of Augusta, )

It is earnestly desired and proper

The parade was then dismissed.
SPECTATORS.
There was a very large number of
spectators present at the Parade
Ground to witness the drill, the
majority of whom were ladies, many
of them in carriages, while the doors
and windows of adjacent residences
were crowded with lookers-on. There
has probably not been so large a
crowd at a parade of military in this
city since the war.

THE RACES.
Last Day of the Spring* Meeting—The
Trotting Race—Frank J. Wins
Easily in Three Straight Heats.
Yesterday, the last day of the races,
the weather was beautiful, showing the
wisdom of postponing the races from
Saturday on account of the rain,
though there were not quite as many
spectators present as last week.
In the sale of pools by Mr. Medinger,
previous to the race, Frank J. was the
favorite.
EntriesJ. A. Batchelor enters and. g.
Frank J.
Lewis Jones enters b. g. Gen. Hood.
W. W. Ogden enters s. m. Lady Pat
terson.
The drivers were instructed that this
was a trotting race, mile heats, best
three in five—to harness—run under
the rules of the American Turf Associ
•ation. The horses were assigned their
positions—Frank J. Ist, Gen Hood 2d,
Lady Patterson 3d.
first heat.
After two efforts the horses got off
well upon the third attempt, with
Frank J. in the lead, which he kept
throughout. Lady Patterson followed,
but on the second quarter the distance
between the two was increased, with
Gen. Hood close up on the latter. On
tho third quarter the mare broke, and
Gen. Hood caught up with her, but
c . ming around the turn she had re
covered some of the distance lost, and
on the home stretch crept up on Frank
Gen. Hood in close proximity.
They came under the string with
Frank J. Ist, Lady Patterson 2d and
Gen. Hood 3d. Time, 2:44.
second heat.
A fine start was made, when Frank
J. took the lead again. On the first
half mile Lady Patterson broke two or
three times; and was passed by Gen.
Hood, who, on tho third-quarter crept
up on Frank J., while the distance be
tween him and the mare was increased,
though on tho home stretch she set
tled down to her work, but could not
regain her first position, and Frank J.
came home first, Gen. Hood second,
Lady Patterson third—there hardly
being a length between them. Time,
2:42%.
third heat.
After several trials a shirt was made,
Frank J. taking the lead and winning
the heat and race. Lady Patterson
was next, followed by Gen. Hood. On
the third-quarter the mare got almost
even with Frank J., but on the home
stretch she lost what she had gained,
and came in second best, Gen. Hood
third. Time, 2:43.
Gen. Hoodiwas rather lame in one
leg before the start, but trotted very
well, considering that fact.
Between the second and third heats,
a ccck fight took place in front of the
Judges' Stand, on which a considera
ble number of bets were made.
* After the last heat was run, another
cock fight was made up and fought.
There was also a great deal bet on this
fight and great interest taken in both.
The great Nevada bonanza bubble
has burst. An exchange says th 6
crash in mining stocks was fearful.
The whole population was interested,
not a woman or child in the State but
what had “ invested,” and the tele
grams from California street announc
ing decline and ruin, produced the ex
citement of a universal disaster. Men
blubbered as they read the bulletin
boards. An assemblyman was quarter
of a million “ out ” on Ophir, but the
most pitiable cases were those who
had mortgaged their little properties
to get tho means of speculation, and
who now saw it all’swept away. There
was a general cursing of Sharon, Sena
tor elect, perhaps because Sharon was
not involved in the downfall. The
magnitude of the crash may be judged
from the fact that on the sth, Ophir,
which time touched §3OO a share,
was selling at §6l, and consolidated
Virginia, which touched §715, at §385.
Living on excitement is very expen
sive living.
The stamp of civilization—The post
age stamp.
Assisting Nature.
It is of no pse attempting to force
nature. She won’t stand it, and rebels.
She must be coaxed, as it were, not
driven. For instance, in attempting to
overcome constipation or indigestion,
violent, or what physicians call, by way
of euphony, “heroic” treatment, is sure
to defeat the purpose in view, which is,
or should be, to permanently remedy
the evil. The use of drastic cathartics
is especially to be deprecated, for al
though they temporarily overcome cos
tiveness, yet the intestines are so
weakened and inflamed by them as to
be rendered unfit to perform the elec
tive function properly. How much
better to assist nature in such a case
with such a mild and salutary aperient
as Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which
strengthen at the same time that they
relieve the bowels. Not only is this
result achieved by their U3e, but the
activity of the torpid liver is restored,
the stomach invigorated, and the en
tire system greatly benefited.

THE EVIDENCE presented In the statements of the rospeetablo and intelligent plant
ers of the surrounding counties will satisfy Southern men that this CONCENTRA
TED CHEMICAL FERTILIZER may claim to be equal, if not superior to any in the
market; that being composed of a base of raw-bone, decomposed with Sulphuric Acid,
and a combination of Chemicals, it is devoid of the enormous amount of inert matter
which all Phosphate Rock preparations must contain; and that it presents the best
guarantee of a largo profitable return, as testilicd to by all who have used it. We refer
to our Pamphlets for this evidence, as it is too voluminous for our advertisement. The
preparation Is varied in composition to meet the coaditi jn of the two great classes of
our soils:
Our C. FERTILIZER-adapted to Clay Soils.
Our G. FERTILIZER adapted to Sandy Soils.
