a portrait and sketch of Gen. John B.
Gcrdon, besides a large amount of fine
literary matter, and is withal a fine

We are glad to welcome back to our
sanctum the Evening Commonwealth,
of Atlanta, which is one of the spright
liest little papers in the country. The
Commonwealth has these good hits at
the Can-Can:
The people of Atlanta paid §BOO, last
night, to see the Can-Can, while §IBO
are all they could raise for the benefit
of the poor, made homeless by the
storm.
This morning, columns of abuse are
heaped upon the heads of those who
compose the troupe, and the guardians
of the public virtue give vent to a tor
rent of indignation which will,/we fear,
have little effect upon those youthful
minds who saw these same censors
occupying front seats and remaining
until after the fall of the curtain end
ing the last act.
As for ourselves, we went there ex
pecting better acting, but were not dis
appointed as to the character of the
actors or of the play. And after hav
ing witnessed the performance in all
its disgusting details, we have to-day,
if possible, a higher appreciation of
female purity than ever before, and
likewise a more thorough contempt for
an audience, the conscience of which
is so pharasaical and lecherous, as only
to have their indignation awakened
after the performance was over.

returning thanks for the remittance of

most opportunely. It would do the
donors’ hearts real good to see how
thankful the unfortunate are for these
substantial expressions of Augusta’s
sympathy and humanity. Next to the

MEETING OF COLORED MEN.
In pursuance of the notice published
in our local columns Sunday morning,
a number of prominent colored men

noon at the Cc.u,J (ovlored) Baptist
Church, for the purpose of devising
means for affording aid to the sufferers
by the tornado.

M. E. Church in America, was made
Chairman and Rev. A. A. Johnson, Sec-
retary. .
Remarks were made by several of
those present on the subject before the
meeting. One colored man remarked
that the tornado was a providential
means of bringing together in harmony
the white and colored races, who had
been kept apart by politics.
A committee of five colored men was
appointed from each ward in the city,
Summerville and the 123d District, to
solicit contributions in aid of the suf
ferers. These committees are to report
to a central committee, composed of
the pastors of the various colored
churches, who will turn over the
amounts collected to the Citizens’ Re
lief Committee for distribution.

the Citizens’ Relief Committee, was
present by request, and read extracts
from letters received by the committee,
acknowledging the relief sent to differ
ent localities, showing that it was dis
tributed irrespective of color or condi
tion, but mainly with a view of reliev
ing the greatest amount of human suf
fering.
All of the colored people present ex-*
hibited a commendable desire to for
ward the good work of relieving suf
fering.
We have received the following re

The Female Minstrels. A Mistaken
Impression.
It appeal's that the Can-Can troupe
which exhibited in Atlanta last week is
not the one which is to exhibit here to
morrow night.
'the agent of Madame Cifrito’s troupe
applied to Maj. Girardey for the Opera
House, but that gentleman, after find
ing out the character of the company,
refused them the use of the hall, and
they passed through Augusta last Fri
day, en route North, via Columbia.
Major Girardey received a day or
two since a dispatch from the manager
of Madame Rentz’s Minstrels, stating
that the “Cerito Show” was disgrace
ful and disgusting, and would ruin his
business (Maj. G.’s house), and also
stating thatdf the Cerito troupe played
here he would be compelled to cancel
his dates at this point.
The manager, M. D. Leavitt, *f the
Rentz’s Ministrels, offered to forfeit
SSOO to Major Girardey his exhibi
tion proves to be different from what
he has represented it. The Manager
stated previously to Major Girardey
that the other troupe were visiting
cities in advance and ruining his busi
ness.
The Macon papers, it is said, speak
in very fair terms of the Rentz troupe.

The Best Protection. —The best
safeguards against epidemic disease
are thorough digestion and firm nerves.
It is because they assure the regular
performance of the digestive process,
and invigorate the nervous system,
that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters are
such a sovereign protective against
the influences which beget intermit
tent maladies, and those which direct
ly affect the stomach and bowels. If
the nerves are healthfully tranquil, the
assimilation of food perfect, as they
are sure to be under the influence of
this standard tonic and nervine, mala
ria may be defied, and if, in the ab
sence of the most reliable of medical
safeguards, the system has fallen a
prey to disease of an intermittent or
remittent type, the Bitters will, if per
sisted in, eradicate every vestige of
the malady. Biliousness, constipation
and dyspepsia yield with equal cer
tainty to the operation of this potent
vegetable alterative.

It Is a Fact that many grocers sell
Dr. Price’s Baking Powders at the
same price they do tho cheaper kinds,
and as they have to pay more for it,
make less money, hence they never sell
it unless the purchaser demands it.
They place it ought of sight, and urge
the customers to take the common
kinds because they are more profitable.
Let consumers become acquainted with
fact that it is only necessary to
mix one part flour to two parts Dr.
Price’s Cream Baking Powder to make
a powder as perfect in its results as
other kinds, and there are few who
would pay the same price for the adul
terated articles as for Dr. Price’s, not
when flour costs less than six cents
per pound. Dr. Price’s powder is not
sold in bulk. mh3o-tuthsasu. ,

THE EVIDENCE presented in tho statements of the respectable and intelligent plant
ers of the surrounding counties will satisfy Southern men th it this CONCEN L'RA
i’ED 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 or 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 testified to bv all who have used it. We refer
to our Pamphlets for this evidence, as it is too voluminous for our advertisement Tho
preparation is varied in composition to meet the condition of the two great clashes of
our soils:
Our C. FERTILIZER adapted to Clay Soils.
Our G. FERTILIZER adapted to Sandy Soils.
