CITY TOPICS.
Thermometer yesterday afternoon,
82 degrees.
Not a single case to report in the Re
corder’s or County Court yesterday.
Robberies and burglaries are now at
a discount. The time that has elapsed
since we had a lirst-class burglary to
report may be counted by weeks in
stead of days.
For more than two weeks our re
porters had almost a perfect bonanza
of local items in lireman’s celebration,
tho fest, the parade, barbecue, etc.,
but now the calm succeeds the storm
and they have comparatively nothing.
Mrs. Jarley, of wax works fame, has
arrived at Waynesboro, and will hold
forth on next Tuesday night, at eight
o’clock, in Masonic Hall in that place.
Her friends aud acquaintances in Au
gusta are cordially invited to be pres
ent and enjoy her company.
There is to be another excursion to
Port Royal harbor, June Bth, to visit
the United States fleet, under the man
agement of Messrs. Cuuningham and
Wells.
Strawberries are becoming so plenti
ful that they can be obtained at 12}£c.
per quart.
Harper’s Monthly and Oodey’s Lady’s
Book, for June, at Quinn & Pendleton’s.
Also, the Constitutionalists, on sale
daily at their store, 224 Broad street.
We learn from practical fishermen
that the shad season has about closed.
Sturgeon are running well, and cat fish
with trout and speckle perch are com
mencing to bite finely.
A Runaway.
The horse of Mr. E. G. Mosher, at
tached to his buggy, was hitched to a
post on Ellis street opposite the post
office, yesterday morning, but becom
ing frightened at some object, broke
away, almost tearing the post down,
ane running off pretty well, smashed
the vehicle. The horse was eventually
caught and brought under control, but
the buggy needs considerable repairs.
Good Templars Festival.
The ladies of Richmond Lodge, No.
43,1. O. G. TANARUS., we are informed, intend
giving to the members of the Lodge a
strawberry festival, at Masonic Hal!,
on next Tuesday night. All Good Tem
plars and friends are invited to partic
ipate in the enjoyment of the occasion.
The small sum of fifty cents for ad
mission will entitle you to every pleas
ure, including ice cream aud straw
berries, ad lib., and the sweetest strains
of soul-entrancing music, furnished by
an excellent band. We feel fully as
sured that all will gladly participate in
so worthy a cause as the one repre
sented by these ladies, and doubt not
that an evening of pleasure and ple
thoric purse will be the results of the
festival.
Invited to Athens.
Chief Frank Smyth, of the Augusta
Fire Department, has received a cor
dial invitation from tho Athens Fire
"Department,through their worthy Chief
Engineer, extended to the officers and
members of the Augusta Fire Depart
ment to attend the annual parade of
the Athens Firo Department on Mon
day next. Chief Frank Symtk will ac
knowledge in behalf of the Augusta
Fire Department, the receipt of the in
vitation. It is a matter of regret that
none of our companies could attend,
but their circumstances are such justat
this time that they must husband their
resources, on account of the expenses
attendant upon the late Augusta par
ade. Our firemen, however, generally
wish their brother firemen of Athens
the greatest success, and extend to
them a brotherly greeting.
THE CLINCH RIFLES.
Christening the Punch Bowl—Toasts
and Songs—A Fine Time at the Drill
Room Last Night.
The Clinch Rifles met at their rooms
on Broad street, below Mclntosh, last
night, in full force, for the purpose of
christening the large puneh bowl won
at the Schutzenfest for the best com
pany shot. It will be remembered that
the bowl was won by the shot of Mark
er Thomas Jones.
There was a very large attendance
of the members and invited guests at
the rooms of the] company, and every
one seemed pleased with the occasion.
The bowl was christened “Little
Tommy ” by Mr. B. Hopfgarten, of the
Schutzen Club, amid applause from
the spectators.
Toasts.
A magnificent basket boquet, pre
sented by Miss Lilia Platt, was sus
pended from the chandlier in the cen
tre of the room. The first toast of the
evening, offered by Capt. Frank G.
Ford, was, “South Carolina, her past,
present and future.” Ma;j. W. T. Gary
responded iu a most eloquent manner.
We give his response as nearly as
possible in his own words :
This tribute, of the citizen soldiery of
Augusta, to the good people of the
State of my nativity, fills my heart with
emotions which are shared by many
who are here to-night.
The hearts of Georgians beat in uni
son with those of the brave but op
pressed Carolinians.
In the past, South Carolina, like a
sentinel upon the watch tower of liber
ty, has warned us of the dangers which
we were not able to avert. Her fidelity
has brought upon her those ills which
now greviously oppress her, but which
she has the heroism to bear with forti
tude. For many years her office-hold
ers have brought disgrace u£on them
selves, ami infamy upon the Govern
ment which has sustained them. But
by their acts, they could not
tarnish the reputation of the State,
which they did not assist to make.
The Palmetto emblazoned upon her
escutchery was made illustrious by her
sons. Proudly has it floated above the
touch of those who sought to defile it.
Dam spiro spero spes will shine forth
with the first gleam of the sunlight of
liberty which shall flash upon her ban
ners. Brave men never dispair. The
spirit which actuated her Sumter, her
Marion, her Calhoun and her Pickens,
her Butler and her Hampton, will again
place her sons in the front ranks of
American heroes and statesmen. And
until that day shall come “whatsoever
things are pure, whatsoever things are
lovely, whatsoever things are of good
report,” you may expect to hear from
the good people of South Carolina.
Other Toasts.
After a short interval, Dr. D. S. Ford
being called on, gave as the second
toast, “The City Soldiery of Augusta,
the Clinch Rifles and with
South Carolina.” This was heartily re
sponded to by all present.
a The Next Toast
was offered by Ensign James D. Cole to
Miss Lilia Platt, the champion of the
Clinch Rifles, and to the lady honorary
members of the company. A most
hearty respunso was echoed in tho
hearts of every one present to this
toast.
Music Hath Charms, &c.
Afterward a short interval ensued,
during which those present en
gaged in pleasant conversation.
Songs
were called for, aud Ensign J. D. Cole,
responding, sang remarkably well, the
guests joining in the chorus. Other
songs were also sung by different mem
bers present, the guests joining in on
the closing lines. The rendition of the
“Musquitoe” (we do not profess to be a
“spelling bee” for the purpose of spell
ing the name of this buzzing insect,
which disturbs our rest at night) made
those present think Mr. Charley I. Mc-
Laughlin was the main root of all the
evil of fifty mosquitoes. And he will
not be allowed to rest until he makes
another midnight buzz.
Mr. Hammond being called on, re
sponded by reading the words of a
correspondent of a Virginia paper iu
reference to the Clinch Rifles, iu which
Capt. F. G. Ford was-highly compli
mented.
The evening passed off pleasantly,
and a general good feeling was inau
gurated between the members of the
several companies composing the bat
talion. We take now the liberty of
saying “Long live the Clinch” and
“ Long live little Tommy.”
FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE PORT
ROYAL RAILROAD.
A Freight Train Runs off and Mor
tally Wounds a Section-Master and
a Negro,
Yesterday as the way-freight train
was coming to Augusta from Port
Royal, aud when coming down the
Belle Dock grade, this side of Allendale,
a pole car, which had been taken on at
that station, ran off the track, the
wheels breaking all to pieces and the
ear broken completely up. On the car
at the time of the accident were Sec
tion Master Clifford Garvin, T. H.
Bramlette, a young man by the name
of Garvin, and three negroes. Section
Master Garvin aud a negro named
Williams were mortally wounded. Mr.
Garvin was hurt in the back and body.
The wounded were left in charge of
some field hands near by. When the
freight traiu arrived at a telegraph
station this side, the road master was
telegraphed to send down assistance.
The Excursion Season.
On next Saturday, the 29th inst., the
excursiou to Savannah, under the
auspices of the congregation of St.
Patrick’s Church, will leave Augusta
for Savannah. This will be a most de
lightful trip to one of the most beau
tiful cities ou this continent. Many
lovely scenes are there, and, among
others, our Catholic friends will be
able to see the new Cathedral now in
course of erection and about one-lialf
completed.
Another grand excursion to Port
Royal harbor will be given on the Bth
of June, under the management of
Messrs. Cuningham & Wells. All who
have not seen the United States men
of-war in Poit Royal harbor will be
able to do so on this occasion. The
price for the round trip is very low,
aud seekers after pleasure would do
well to grasp this chance of enjoying
themselves at a trifling cost iu money.
What John Bull Pays fob His Li
quor.—Mr. Dawson Burns sends to the
London Times a really remarkable
statement as to the amount of money
which the people of the United King
dom spend on their drink. They
bought last year 20,205,306 gallons of
alcohol in distilled spirits, 2,592,660 in
foreign wines, 54,699,320 in malt liquors,
and 650,000 in cider, perry and British
wines, the amounts given being in alco
hol, not in liquor. For this quautity,
all of which, except perhaps the alco
hol iu malt liquor, may be taken to be
either mere waste of luxury, they paid
iu 1874:
For ardent spirits £41,574,134
For foreign wines 12,963,288
For malt liquor ! ... 72,932,436
For cider, perry and British
wine 1,000,000
£128,469,858

AN ANGLO VIRGINIAN IN GEOR
GIA.
IVhat Mr. St. Andrew Has to Say of
Men and Matters in Augusta.
[Editorial correspondence of the Farmville
Mercury.]
Augusta. Ga.. May 4,1875.
Just as Virginians proudly trace their
descent from the noblest blood of Old
England, so the gallant Georgians ex
ult in their Old Dominion ancestry.
To be a Virginian is to be honored in
Georgia, and to be an Anglo-Virginian
is to heartily be made a welcome guest.
Old Virginia is indeed largely repre
sented in Augusta. Messrs. Thomas
Branch, Sons & Cos. and Messrs. Scott
& Cos. stand among the first business
houses in this town. It is said that
Thomas Branch, Sons & Cos. own more
than half a million of Georgia proper
ties, and the other firms are also weal
thy. The Hon. Thomas P. Branch is
President of the Planters Bank and a
great railroad magnate. Major Mel.
Branch and Mr. W. A. Branch are also
first class gentlemen. I received a
most kindly reception from all the
brothers.
Mr. Newberry, Cashier of tho Plant
ers’ Bank, is a Petersburg mau who
has gained a high position. One of
the leading merchants—to whom I was
indebted to Col. A. S. Buford for an in
troduction—is W. J. Blair, Esq., of
Blair, Smith & Cos., who fermeriy re
sided in Danville. Mr. Blair is a whole
souled gentleman and was very pleas
ed to see me. J. D. Carter, Esq., the
city editor of the Const it at ionalist, is
the son of Dr. Carter, of Boydton.—
Carter is a live newspaper man, and
made a great hit by his report of the
cyclone, which for fullness and accura
cy could not have been beaten by any
New York daily. Mr. Carter is a son
of Virginia of whom the Old Dominion
may well feel proud. I saw many
other Virginians occupying prominent
positions in Augusta, but have not
space for all their names.
Shortly after my arrival Mr. Harris,
the active and able agent of the Fartn
villo Insurance aud Banking Company,
courteously waited on me, aud stated
that President W. D. Rico had kindly
written to him requesting him to show
me all needful attention. For this
spontaneous and unexpected kindness
I thank Mr. Rice, and am pleased to
say that Mr. Harris did all in his
power to make rny stay in Augusta
agreeable.
Down here I got at once among a
crowd of Anglo-Georgians, and found
them all the best fellows in the world.
Last evening, by special invitation, I
addressed these English fellow-citizens,
and the meeting resulted iu the forma
tion of a society in Augusta with some
fifty members at starting. At the
Globe Hotel the gentlemanly steward,
Mr. Charles Waller, was formerly pro
prietor of his Lordship’s Larder, iu
London, aud looks to the life as I re
member the attaches of that celebrated
restaurant. Mr. Washbourne, clerk
at the same hotel, is to all appearance
fresh from Westbounia, although I
believe he hails from ancient Glouces
ter. He is also a tip-top fellow. The
chief of the English settlers—iu fact
the Henry Bowler, of Augusta—is E. H.
Pughe, in physique, manners and bon
hommie as fine a specimen of an Eng
lishman as I have ever met. Messrs.
Bligh, Hammond, Nelson, and rnauy
other settlors stand high as business
men, aud are socially as genial and
kindly as Bowler or Bugg. Meeting so
many generous hearted Virginians and
Britishers has made my visit to this
placo exceedingly gratifying and long
to bo remembered.
The editor of the Constitutionalist is
one of the celebrated men of the age—
Col. Randall, author of Maryland, My
Maryland, a war lyric as well known iu
Europe as in America. Recognizing a
chivalrous gentleman, genial compan
ion aud accomplished writer, I count
myself fortunate in having made the
acquaintance of the distinguished Col
onel.
Dr. Moses, a leading banker of Au
gusta, finding I was from Farmville,
showed me marked kindness. The
Doctor says he was for more than a
year stationed iu Farmville during
the war—living at the Randolph House
—and he inquired about everybody iu
town. I judge the Doctor was as pop
ular in Prince Edward as he certainly
is in Georgia.
On Monday evening my friend Ham
mond invited me to see the Clinch Ri
fles under drill. The company I saw
commanded by Captain Ford, a splen
did officer, is decidedly the best drilled
volunteer corps I have seen in the
United States. The drill was most se
vere, but every man with the exception
of a recruit or two, scarcely noticeable,
was fully up to duty. The Clinch Rifles
are a crack corps, possessing an excel
lent Club Room for the use of the mem
bers. The name of the company is de
rived from Colonel Clinch, its first com
mander, whose slogan of war “Charge
Again,” forms the watchward of the
corps. No one can doubt that the
brave men who compose the Rifles
would in the future as iu the past,
“charge again” and again, at the call of
duty.
By the way, I was proud to lbarn
that among the British settlers in Au
gusta are two of the gallant six hun
dred whose glorious charge at Bala
clava stands among the proudest of
heroic achievements.
Augusta is a flue city, full of life and
energy. Its manufacturing facilities
are such as to make it ere long a very
great industrial community. Its water
power advantages are enormous. Its
business houses are rich and prosper
ous. Altogether it has a bright future.
St. A.
A Southern Summer Resort.
Greenville, S. C., has lately become a
summer resort for citizens of this—
as well as other Southern States. A
number of our Augusta people spent
the summer there last year, choosing
that place because it is situated in a
mountainous, healthy part of the
State. From parties lately visiting
Greenville we learn that great prepara
tions are making for the accommoda
tion of summer visitors, a large num
ber being expected during the season.
The Mansion House was purchased in
January last by Calnan & Roath for
$40,000, and they have now thoroughly
repaired aud renovated it preparatory
to tho reception of summer visitors.
The whole outfit is new and first class.
A fine band is engaged and a ball will
take place every week. We understand
that a large number of Augusta people
will “summer it” at Greenville. Mr.
D. Quinn, of the firm of Quinn & Pen
dleton of this city, has lately returned
from an extended tour of the mountain
regions of Georgia and South Caro
lina, and he is of the opinion that our
Southern simmer resorts are fully
equai to those of the North.
St. George’s Society.— There will be
a meeting in the room over Mr.
Schueider’s store at 8 o’clock of mem
bers of the above Society, to-morrow
(Monday) evening, May 24, (Queen
Victoria’s Birthday), for the purpose of
oragnization, and adopting a constitu
tion and by-laws.
All. Englishmen, their sons and
grandsons, male or female descent, are
respectfully invited to attend.

THE GEORGIA RAILROAD.
8. K. Johnson foi’ Superintendent.
Mr. Editor : I am glad to see Gene
ral Mcßae has declined the position of
Superintendent of the Georgia Rail
road, if it will be the means of retaining
Mr. S, K: Johnson a i\ t place. The
removal of Mr. John n. after so many
years of faithful*}**^, „ - ,3 the railroad,
was unjust to that - *: <; I There
is 00 better railroa 1 w t 4 of his age in
Georgia. He ispi -[■ 1 \ud efficient in
the discharge of at3’ ies, holding in
dividuals strictly to (tuty, yet retaining
their respect and confidence, a rare
combination in officials but indispensa
ble to success. He is young, energetic,
competent, honest, faithful and am
bitious, emphatically a rising railroad
man, aud would, in my judgment, give
more general satisfaction than any
man the Diiectors could select. He is
popular with the people along the road,
commanding their respect and friend
ship, managing so as to make every
body the friend instead of the enemy
of the road. Again, Mr. Johnson, who
would be wortli more than any other
man to the road, I have no doubt,
would give his best services for a great
deal less salary than was tendered to
Gen. Mcßae. All things considered, he
is the best man for the place. Let,
merit be rewarded and justice done.
Friend to Georgia Railroad.
The Schiller Disaster—George G.
Leonhardt.
Messrs. Editors : In an account of
the wreck of the steamship Schiller,
published in one of our city papers, I
saw a brief sketch of our unfortunate
fellow-citizen, Geo. G. Leonhardt, who
with his wife and child perished in that
awful disaster. One important fact with
regard to him was omitted. From the
first months of the late war to the final
overthrow of the Confederacy, Mr.
Leonhardt marched under the Southern
Cross, aud no more gallant soldier ever
risked his life in upholding the honor
and the rights of the South. He was
a member of Oglethorpe Infantry, Com
pany A, and ever possessed the love
and esteem of his comrades. Obliging,
kind and generous, perfectly unselfish,
faithful iu the performance of all a sol
dier’s duties, courageous and heroic in
the day of battle, he was a general fa
vorite. There is not a soldier who knew
him, who would hesitate to corroborate
what I have said of him.
During the latter part of the war,
while on a short visit home, he was
married to a lovely young lady, the
daughter of Mr. F. A. Brahe, formerly
a merchaut of our city. When Mr:
Leonhardt, with his wife and little
daughter, left home for a visit to his
wife’s relatives in Germany they, both
remarked to their friends that they
would have to count this as their bridal
tiip, for it was the first they had ever
taken together.
Ah ! little did they dream of its awful
termination.
It is terrible that a whole family
should thus perish in the merci
less waves. But there is comfort in
the thought that their agony was brief;
and t hat as they were lovely and pleas
ant in their lives, so in their death they
were not divided. J. T. D.
A Brain-Destroying Malady. —That
insomuia, or inability to sleep, has be
come very prevalent of late years, is
sufficiently evidenced by the fact that
numberless remedies have been intro
duced within the last decade specially
intended for its cure, and that new se
datives are continually croppiug up.
But no medicinal agent has so widely
and clearly established its claims as a
genuine soporific as Hostetter’s Stom
ach Bitters. That it removes this brain
destroying inability far more effect
ually tbau the bromides, chlorals
and valerianates iu use, is not to be
wondered at when we consider that
such drugs act only on the brain,
which is not the source of the evil,
while the Bitters rectify the alimentary
disturbances which originate it. It is
admitted by physicians that dyspepsia
and non-assimilation of the food pro
duce sleeplessness. The Bitters over
come these obstacles to repose as well
as those urinary troubles which are
also said to interfere with it. A wine
glassful or two of this wholesome se
dative invigorant at bed time rarely fails
to produce tranquil repose.
iny2o-thsatu&c
Extract From the Pod. —Dr. Price’s
Vanilla Flavor is extracted from the
Vanilla Pod, obtained from Mexico.
This popular flavor, as made by Dr.
Price, embodies all of the delicate aro
ma of this agreeable fruit, and is free
from the strong, rank taste of those ex
tracts in the market sold as Vanilla,
which are made from the cheap Tou
qua or Snuff Bean. If something pure
and nice is wanted to flavor cakes, pies
or pudding, get Dr. Price’s True Flav
oring Extracts, which aro equal to his
noted Cream Baking Powder.

Ague Conquerer— No Quinine, no
Arsenic, no Poisons. —This is strong
language, as Physicians and Chemists
have for years tried to compound a
preparation that would entirely cure
Fever and Ague without the use of
strong medicines such as Quinine. Ar
senic and other poisons injurious to
the system. There is no case of Fever
and Ague, Intermittent or Bilious Fe
vers, Congestive Chills, Night Sweats,
Liver Complaints, &c., i hat this remedy

It purifies the Blood, Liver, Spleens,

THE SMITH COTTON PRESS.
A Valuable Press for the Planter.
M e issue this morning a supplement
to our regular Sunday edition contain
ing matter that will prove of great in
terest at this time and during the sum
mer to planters and farmers through
out the South. We give, first, the
plan of David Dickson, the great Geor
gia planter, for planting and cultiva
ting the staple product of the South
cotton ; but the main feature that will
attract the attention of the planting
community is the introduction of a
press that will easily and compactly
put the staple in shape to be sent to
market/and the publication of letters
of commendation of the Smith Cotton
and Hay Press received from promi
nent men in this aud other sections of
the South engaged in planting.
This press is the invention of Mr.
Wm. M. Smith, of Augusta, Ga., aud
though but a short time before the
public has met with marked favor.
This is evidenced by the large number
sold.
Ihe territory embraced within the
States of Georgia and South Carolina
has been disposed of under the patent
to Messrs. Pollaid & Cos.
The general agents for the sale of
the press in these two States and por
tions of Tennessee and Alabama are
Printup, Bro. and Pollard, of Augusta.
If we should judge alone from the
testimonials of planters who have used
the Smith Press, (and this testimony is
the most reliable that can be furnished
in any section), we should say it was a
valuable invention anil would prove of
vast benefit to the planting interest
throughout the country in packing cot
ton and hay, but from personal obser
vation and examination we can say
that Georgia genius has produced a
press, so simple in construction and
powerful in its operation and pressure,
that we cannot see how it can be im
proved on. We some time ago gave a
description of its various parts and the
manner of its working.
We would at this time particularly
refer to the letter of Hon. Thos. P.
Saffold, one of the most prominent
planters of Middle Georgia, who has
“no hesitancy in saying that as a power
to pack cotton it | the Smith Press] is
far superior to either a Cox Press, in
gersoll Press, Wright’s Screw or the
old wooden screw, because it is as
cheap, as durable and more easily man
aged.”
The press has been greatly improved
since it was first introduced, the whole
being simple hi construction, and the
various parts more perfectly and con
veniently arranged, while the original
principle of obtaining the lever power
is retained. There is even an improve
ment upon it since last season.
The general agents at Augusta are
prepared to till all orders from this
State or South Carolina immediately
upon their receipt. Messrs. Pollard &
Cos., are also engaged in the manufac
ture of the celebrated Neblett & Good
rich Cotton Gin, which is advertised in
the supplement and referred to below.
A Fine Gin.
In titis connection we would call at
tention to another marked feature in
our supplement, that of the Neblett &
Goodiich Cotton Gin—Printup, Bro. &
Pollard, General Agents—which is said
to be one of tho best now on the mar
-1 ket. The main advantages claimed for
it by many planters who have used the
gin are, light draught., rapid ginning,
cleaning the seed well, and good sam
ple. i'he testimonials of planters speak
for themselves. The agents have a
number of other letters from thosejwho
have used both the gin and the press,
but which are not published for want of
room. All speak as favorably of the
gin and press as those given in print.
When you speak of sheep killing
dogs of course you mean dogs that are
killing sheep.
