Fira in Atlanta.
An extensive fire occurred on White
hall street, in Atlanta, just after 12
o’clock Tuesday night, which burned
out G. W. Jack’s candy manufactory j
and Paul Jones’ liquor store. The jew- j
elry store of George Sharpe was threat- <
ed, and a large part of his silverware
was moved to another store, but a
great deal of it was stolen. In a cloth
ing store near by, a large part of the
stock was injured by water.
The total loss is estimated by the
News at $135,000. A press dispatch
makes the loss $130,000, and the insur
ance $48,000.

since by Mrs. J. W. Clark. It was j
first won by Mr. John M. Cook, to be j
held for one year as the best drilled
man, but he having resigned his mem
bership and surrendered’the medal to
the company, it will again be contended
for by the members next Friday.
A Wrong Impression.
Asa reporter was going down Greene
street, about half-past three o’clock
yesterday morning, thinking only of
his bed, he heard a voice away up the
street, apparently proceeding from the
“look out” of the Bell Tower, and
turning to look back, he saw a light
through the trees. With his heart in
his throat, and in nervous anticipation
of getting in an item ahead of the other
* paper, he impatiently waited for Big
Steve to strike the alarm for au up
town district. But vainly did he wait,
though wondering all the while why
someone did not cry fire, and cause
the Bell Tower man to sound an alarm.
At last that reporter was reluctantly
compelled to come to the conclusion
that it was the moon that was on the
wane, and sorrowfully he wended his
way homeward, musing on the liability
of mankind to make mistakes.

Prof. King is known in Augusta as a
man of genius and energy, and capable
of giving the best kind of amusement
u ' his spectators, which has been well
attested in the past. The prices of ad
mission dre 50 and 25 cents.

ST. PATRICK’S DAY.
Celebration in Augusta.
In every city and town “in this
broad land of ours ” there are Irish
men who keep sacred the memory of
Ireland’s Patron Saint, St. Patrick, and
celebrate his birthday, the 17th of
March being generally considered as
the day on which he was born.
The day was duly celebrated by the
Irishmen of Augusta yesterday, with
the usual eclat ands uccess that char
acterizes them in ail they undertake.
The procession was formed by 9 o’clock
in the morning, on Telfair street, be
tween Jackson and Mclntosh, by Maj.
William Craig as Marshal of the Day,
with Messrs. John F. Armstrong and
John D. Sheahan as aids. The follow
ing organizations participated, taking
position in the order named ;
Irish Volunteers ; the Societies of St.
Vincent de Paul of both Catholic par
ishes ; Society of the Angels, composed
of boys ; the Total Abstinence and Ben
eficial Society and the Hibernian So
ciety.
The procession proceeded on the line
of march as previously published,
through Jackson, Greene, Marbury,
Broad and Elbert streets, then up
Greene and through Mclntosh streets,
to St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, on
Telfair street.
At the Church, a very large number
of personSj besides the members of the
different participating organizations,
were present. After they were seated,
a military High Mass was celebrated
by Rev. Father Prendergast, Pastor of
St. Patrick’s Church, all present ap
pearing to be deeply interested
throughout the ceremonies.
Upon the conclusion of the religious
services the procession was again form
ed and proceeded to Girardey’s Opeia
House, where an oration by Hon.
George T. Barnes was to be delivered.
The house was crowded, most of the
audience being ladies and children, the
gentlemen gallantly according them
seats and taking standing room for
themselves.
Seated cn the stage were a number
of prominent citizens, with the officers
of the various organizations present.
Maj. Geo. T. Barnes, the orator of the
day, was introduced by Hon. Patrick
Walsh, and then delivered an eloquent
and interesting address regarding St.
Patrick, in whose honor and in memo
ry of whom the day was celebrated.
It was impossible to obtain a copy of
the address for publication, or we would
have taken pleasure in presenting it
in print this morning. It was received
with marked interest throughout its
delivery by all present.
At the conclusion of Maj. Barnes’
address, the procession was again
formed on Broad street, about 12:30
o’clock, and then marched through
Jackson street to the point from
whence it started, where all where dis
missed. Gardner’s Brass Band was in
the lead in the procession throughout
tiie parade.
The fronts of a number of stqres,
and especially many dry goods houses,
in the city were decorated with long
streamers of green, the national color
of Ireland, while nearly every man and
boy in the procession had a “ sprig of
green” in his hat. Several small
yrchins, neatly dressed, wore green
sashes. Withal, the day was cele
brated in a manner that sustained the
reputation of our Irish citizens for
making a success of whatever they un
dertake.
A Communication on Civil Rights.
We received the following communi
cation through the post office, yester
day evening, which we publish verba
tim et literatim et punctuatim. The
name of the writer was not given,
though it is apparently from a colored
man:
Mr Editor of the Constitusionlist I
red a small article in the cronicle this
morning stating about our theator
made by someone or tow colored citi
zens of'this city, the suggestion did
not amount to one straw, and it was
altogether contrary to law and our
good citizens says that they is our best
friends and are willing to piotect the
colored man according to law, so I
hope that the proprieter wiil fix a
place down stairs among our selves
and let the gallery be for those ho de
sire it I dont desire to infringe on any
of our white friends or good citizens
all we ask is what the law requires
and not those seats in the gallary I
hope those two colored men will ask
for the law next time and abide by it
and not those seats in the gallary with
respect I. am your umble servant

Th3 Little Furnace.
The Little Briggs Furnace continues
to attract great attention—housewives
being especially interested in it as it is
an invention that is calculated to be of
great benefit to them. With but little
trouble and three cents worth of coal
they an ordinary meal in a
very few minutes. It is probable that
many persons who have left their or
ders for the Little Furnace will find
that they can dispense with one of their
servants and serve a meal themselves
with but little inconvenience, and the
novelty of the affair will make it of in
terest to them.
Capt. Frank Smyth, at whose store,
No. 51 Jackson street, the furnace is
on exhibition, has invented a light and
durable oven, in which bread or meat
of any kind can be baked on this fur
nace. It will prove of great advantage
to those who use the furnace. 1
Weighty. —The reasons for adding
j marble dust, alum, starch, flour, &c.,
: to baking powders, are to make them
weighty, and thus add to profit. It
would be well for house-keepers to
know that Dr. Price’s Cream Baking
Powder is free from these adulterants,
hence the purest and most economical.
As two teaspoonfuls go as far as three
teaspoonfuls of the heavy kinds, and
as baking powders are _ used by tea
spoonfuls and not by weight, the sav
ing in this direction is no small item.
Dr. Price’s Baking Powder and his
True Flavoring Extracts are beyond
all question the best and most perfect
of anything in the market. To insure
certainty buy Dr. Price’s Powder only
in cans. mhlß-tuthsasu

Action of the Standing Committee
of the Diocese of Georgia in the
Matter of the Bishops Elect of
Southern Ohio and Illinois.
The committee consented to the con
secration of the Rev. Dr. Jagger in the
following form :
Resolved , While we entirely disap
prove of the “Cheney letter,” we,
nevertheless, in view of Dr. Jaggar’s
letter of explanation, “ disavowing em
phatically the interpretation put upon
certain phrases in that letter” and
stating that “ the ground of his action
was sympathy with one peculiarly tried,
and not approval of his course,” do
give our consent to his consecration.
The committee refused to consent in
the ease of the Rev. Dr. De Koven, as
follows :
Whereas, Information has reached
the Standing Committee of the Diocese
of Georgia, through the official state
ment of the Convention of the Diocese
of Illinois, that Dr. James De Koven,
whose papers are now before us for
confirmation to the holy office of
Bishop, received but a bare majority
of the votes cast, to say nothing of the
charge of the illegality of his election ;
and,
Whereas, Respect is due to the large
and unprecedented minority of the
Diocese of Illinois still in persistent op
pasition to him, and,
Whereas, Doubts surrounding the
doctrine held by the Bishop elect are
known to us, and we maintain that the
church should have the benefit of. any
doubt in regard to error of religion
alleged against a candidate for any ;
holy office, and,
YVhereas, We believe that a Bishop 1
of a Diocese, particularly one against
whom these errors in religion have
been charged, should command a more
geueral approval than has been the
case in the present instance ; and
Whereas, It is not possible for us, in
view of the evidence which has reach
ed us, to give testimony without pub
licity or affection in the presence of Al
mighty God, that the Bishop elect of
Illinois is not, so far as we are inform
ed, justly liable to evil report for error
in religion ; therefore, be it
Resolved, That we, the Standing
Committee of the Diocese of Georgia,
regretting the necessity that exists for
so doing, are nevertheless constrained
to withhold our consent to his conse
cration, and we hereby decline to sign
his testimonials.
Real Estate and Taxes.
Mr. Editor : I do not propose at this
time to offer any further illustrations
of the value of real estate in this city
as an investment, except in a geueral
way. I think my former communica
tion and it Jack Plane’s ” sufficient for
the present. If any more are required
scores of them cau be furnished. That
there is real estate held in this city
that is not remunerative to the owners,
I have not the least doubt; and the
same can be said with equal truth of
any other class of property, not even
excepting bonds. The merchant who
introduces a class of goods that are not
in demand certainly will not be able to
sell them to au advantage; still that
does not prove that a majority of our
merchants are not receiving remunera
tive profits on their ventures ; neither
should the broker, who offers Macon
and Brunswick or Rome city bonds (ex
clusively) for sale, complain that ttys
is a poor place to sell bonds in. Of
course not. As well might the man
who buys a dilapidated property in
some unfavorable location for $4,000
and who then expends $3,000 more in
improving it expect to receive more
than three per cent, net from his invest
ment. If he had purchased the lot
without the improvement for SSOO or
SI,OOO and then built his $3,000 house
upon it he might reasonably expect a
good return, and would, undoubtedly,
get it. Or, in other words, it requires
judgment, sagacity and a knowledge of
the wants of £a community to insure
success in purchasing or improving
real estate as well as in any other one
of the commercial pursuits.
A flue house in Bruytonville would
not very likely be in much demand by
rent-paying tenants, while the reverse
would be the case if the same house
was centrally located on Walker and
Telfair streets, and the first cost in
either case would be the same, except,
perhaps, a trifle more for the ground
to build on.
A man may build a house for his own
use and incorporate into the plan his
own peculiar or whimsical ideas, with
an expensive finish, and in time a
change in his circumstances may place
the property on the market. Some
one ill-advised buys it as an invest
ment, usually paying more thafi it is
really worth, though, perhaps, consid
erably less than the original cost, and
finds it ill-suited for a tenement house,
and the consequence is that, while his
taxes, insurance and repair expenses
are not reduced, he is obliged to take
the same gross rental as his neghbor
across the wn” r^pe^y
cost more than unc nail as much money.
Taxes at any rate are troublesome,
and like gas companies’ bills usually
complained of. We enter our protest
here in Augusta against gas at $5 per
thousand, and they complain in New
Fork City about gas at $2.75. and it is
the same way with taxes. I have been
a citizen of Augusta for nearly twenty
years, and I have never known any
considerable amount of the city’s debt
contracted except by the authority of a
large majority of the legal voters of
the city, and there is a very homely,
(although none the less truthful) say
ing “He that will dance must pay the
fiddler” and he ought to. We have
contracted the debt, (and I do not be
lieve we regret the improvements yet)
and we ought to provide for its pay
ment.
We are told that a high rate of tax
ation prevents improvements. Well,
perhaps so, but there never has been a
larger number of new buildings built
in any two years during the past thir
ty than there has been within the last
two years. Still, taxes are no higher
now than they were two years ago.
The merchants, mechanics and labor
ing men of the city pay a large share
of the tax, either directly or indirectly,
and all that we ask, Mr. Editor, is to
give us plenty of trade and work,
and we will pay the tax without a mur
mur, and enable the City Fathers to
place our bonds on a par with real es
tate as an investment.

An Important Fact.—The voluntary
testimony of thousands establishes be
yond all doubt a fact of vital impor
tance to the sick and debilitated, viz.,
that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is an
absolute specific for remittent and in
termittent fever, dyspepsia, constipa
tion, biliousness, mental depression,
sleeplessness, chronic diarrhoea, and all
diseases of the stomach, liver and
bowels. The unmedicated stimulants
usually prescribed - in these cases only
aggravate the symptoms, instead of re
moving them. The Bitters, on the con
trary, act as a correo ive and invigo
rant, without producing the unpleasant
and dangerous consequences of the old
school practice. The action is mild and
sooting to the irritated stomach and
bowels, promoting digestion and pre
venting flatulence, nausea, headache
and all intestinal irregularities. A
wineglassful before maals greatly as
sists digestion. The convalescent may
use them with great benefit, as a means
of restoring strength ar:d cheerfulness.

course, has to leave profit with each, thus
making yery “ dear goods.”

make a “ specialty ” of them in my busi

They are bought from the IMPORTER,
direct from CHINA and JAPAN, thus get
ting them from first hands, with only

mission added to cost in China.
I would say to the public they can rely on
the quality of my TEAS, and the price will
be LOW, because there is only ONE instead
of several profits, as is generally the case.
Retailers furnished in chests, at as low
rates as the same quality can be bought in
large cities.
One Dollar Will Buy
Two pound i of good Green or Black Tea.
four and a half pounds of good Rio Coffee,

in.D CHLMiCvAL J ihR LUjIZ&R may claim to be equal, if not superior to any in tiia
market; that being con posed 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 liock preparations must coutain; and that it presents the tost
guarantee of a large profitable return, as testified to by all who have used it. We refer
to our Pamphlets for this evidence, as it is too voluminous for our advertisement The
