Anew article for table use is told of

One thing is noticeable among the
very young gentlemen and ladies with
whom street-car excursions from the
East towards Summerville are quite
popular just now—a great deal of care,
seems to be deemed necessary *bn the
part of the very young gentlemen to
prevent their fair charges from falling

We do not assert that the following
remark of somebody is applicable to,
Augusta: Fishing parties are among
the daily occurrences now, and the
queerest thing about it is that some of
the fishermen purchase their fish iu the
city and carry them to the country to
be cooked on the banks of the creeks.
While they doubtless return home with
the proverbial dampness incident to
such sportsmen, they are provided
against the hunger said to accom
pany it.
We understand that the only fish
erman with the picnicing party up
the raging canal yesterday caught one
fish, as the result of four hours’ ex
haustive application, enough mod
erate swearing and much mud. It is
due to the truth of history to add that
when the fish was caught it became an
exceedingly difficult matter to deter
mine which was more astonished—the
fish or the fisher, with the advantage
perhaps in favor of the fisher.

Augusta Boat Club—Preparations for
Lively Dipping of Oars.
A special meeting of the Augusta
Boat Club was held at the office of
Messrs. John M. Clark & Cos. last eve
ning, President W. H. Cranston pre
sidiig, ind Mr.feam'uel Weisiger acting
Purser. 6 It was the first meeting in
some time, but very well attended.
The unconfirmed minutes were read
and adopted.
Mr. J. Warnock Echols made appli
cation and was unanimously elected a
member.
On motion of Mr. Weisiger it was re
solvedg that regular fines and dues be
coljectid from the first of last April, all
finfcs tmd dues previous to that date
since the close of the last boating to be
rescinded.
Under reports from officers, Mr. J.
W. Clark, Captain, stated that a yawl
boat was gone from the Club’s boat
house, but whether to the bottom of
the boat house or elsewhere in the
canal he couldn’t say. The remaining
boats were all light and the other pro
perty df the Club in good condition and
repair.
An invitation, received by President
Cranston for the Club, was presented
from the St. John Rowing Club, of
New Orleans, to attend the grand re
gatta to be held on Lake Pontchartrain
under their auspices, on Monday, the
19th of J uly prox. The regatta is open
to the members of all regular organ
ized amateur rowing clubs in all South
ern cities. The races will be four, as
follows: First race—single scull shells,
individual entries ; second race—pair
oared or double scull shells, club entry;
third race—four-oared gigs, club entry;
fourth race—four-oared shells, club
entry. The announced prizes are : for
the first race, valued at not less than
850; for the second, at not less than
8100; for the third, at not less than
8150 ; and for the fourth, at
not less than 8250. Should there
bo one or more visiting clubs
entered, prizes of greater value will be
offered. All the races will be free, but
an entrance fee or forfeit of 825 for
each boat will be required at the time
of entering, as an evidence of good*
faith, to be returned if the boat entered
draws into line. The distances for sin
gle sculls will be one mile, half mile to
a stake buoy and return ; for pair oars
or double sculls, one mile and a half,
three quarters of a mile to a stake buoy
and return; for four-oared gigs and
four-oared shells, two miles, one mile
to a stake buoy and return. All en
tries must be sent on or before July
10th to the St. Johu Rowing Club. Am
ateurs only will be permitted to enter.
Individuals or crews entering must for
ward a statement with their entry, con
taiuiug their name or names; name
and location of Club to which they be
long ; name of boat and class, dimen
sions and builder, and their colors.
The laws of boat racing established by
the National Association of Amateur
Oarsmen will bo observed at the re
gatta, and the definition of an amateur
established by that Association will gov
ern the qualifications of competitors.
To visiting clubs, the St. Johu specially
says : “It is the desire of the St. John
Rowing Club in organizing tliis regatta
to encourage similar contests iu the
future, and to popularize rowing in the
South. Rowing clubs of other cities
are, therefore, earnestly invited to par
ticipate. Every exertion will be used
to make the regatta a grand success.
The boat house of the St. John Rowing
Club, capable of affording ample ac
commodation, is tendered to visiting
clubs for training purposes and storage
of boats. Suitable provision will be
made for the accommodation of vis
itors, and no pains will be spared in
making their stay in New Orleans
agreeable.”
On motion of Mr. Weisiger, the
thanks of the Augusta Club were re
turned to the New Orleans amateur
oarsmen for the invitation, and the
Secretary was instructed to acknow
ledge its receipt and convey the regrets
of the Club that it is impossible for au
Augusta crew to be present.
Under new business, Mr. Clark sug
gested that it would be well to get the
crews of the club out and at practice
now, as this was the season of ample
leisure and nothing to do.
Mr. Peter G. Burum, Vice President,
moved that the Captain be requested
to make up two select crews to row on
the lake iu July, who shall be required
to practise at least twice a week, and
as much oftener as they please; and,
further, to arrange for the regular
practice twice a week of two crews of
the club.
The motion prevailed unanimously,
and Friday, the 16th of July, was de
termined by vote as the day for the
sport.
Mr. E. H. Walton, under suspension
of the rules, was by acclamation unan
imously elected Purser.
A revised roll of the members is to
be furnished the Captain for his use, at
once.
By a unanimous fising vote, all the
members of the Club who possibly can
were requested to attend at. the boat
house when the crews are ordered out
so as to fill up all vacancies that may
happen in the regular details and thus
insure practice.
It was detemined that practice shall
begin at 5 o’clock this afternoon, at
which hour promptly the members of
the Club are desired to be at the boat
house.
President Cranston expressed gratifi
cation at the earnest spirit and lively
interest maufested by the Club.
On motion, the Club took an adjourn
ment to the regular meeting in July.
Hymenial.
A pleasiug and beautiful ceremony
was celebrated yesterday morning in
tffe marriage of Mr. D. F. Cargill, form
erly of Columbus, Ga., but for several
years past well and favorably known
as being connected with Major W. F.
Alexander, of this city, in the cotton
business, to Miss Annie Lou, youngest
daughter of one of Augusta’s old citi
zens, Mr. E. H. Rogers. The newly
made couple departed via the Macon
and Augusta train for a visit to rela
tives and friends in Macon and Colum
bus. The best wishes and “God bless
you” of mauy friends went with them.
May a life, long and full of united
happiness, be theirs.
In Macon at noon on Wednesday, the
2d inst., at the residence of the bride’s
mother, Dr. Hersehel V. Johnson, of
Hawkinsville, son of ex-Governor John
son, was married to Miss Carrie Bello
Roberts, by Rev. Arminius Wright, of
the Methodist Church. Miss Roberts
is the youngest sister of our friend,
Mr. F. S. Roberts, of the Constitu
tionalist office, who enjoyed a jaunt
to the Central City to be present on
the happy occasion. May the lives of
these just joined in the hallowed
presence of home and loving friends
flow on, like two crystal brooks united
and mingling musically forever.

HO ! FOR THE BRICK YARD !
A Vnliayt Charge Upon the Light
Brigade'of Vagrants.
It is natural to have drones in bee
hives, and nature wo presume is equal
ly responsible for vagrants in society.
But the bees pitilessly sting, destroy
and turn out the drones, and mankind,
actuated doubtless by a similar in
stinct of self-preservation, are united
against vagrants. The law has been
framed to banish these unworthy char
acters from the social bee-hive, and iu
our community Judge Snead is invest
ed with the responsibility of enforcing
it. Yesterday he was called upon to
do this in quite an unusual number of
cases, and his docket now bears the
subjoined record of the day’s casual
ties r 1
State vs. John Brunson alias Bouncer,
colored .vagrancy. Guilty and sentenced
to a year on the county chaiu gang.
State vs. Anna Brown, colored, va

Guilty and sentenced tp a year’s prac

Besides these cases, may add the
following for the next most popular
misdemeanor:
State vs. William Boyce, colored, lar
ceny. Guilty and sentenced to six
months in the county chain gang.
State vs. Laura Simmons, colored,
larceny. Guilty and given a year at
brick-making.
State vs. Armistead Archer, colored,
larceny. Guilty and checked off for
twelve months.
State vs. Jesse Berrien, colored, lar
ceny. Guilty aud awarded ninety days.
All these candidates to learn the
useful art of brick manufacture were
expressed to Mr. HalaLian, and this
morning are doubtless mixing mud for
their own and the county’s good. The
aggregate terms of service of these
eleven convicts amount to nine years
and nine months’ work of one person
on the county chain gang.
A Pic-Nic on the Canal.
The staunch little boat, “Jerry,” left
the Basin at 9 o’clock yesterday morn
ing with no less than fifty-four persons
on board, the guests of Mayor Estes
nominally but in reality, each and all,
with an air of freedom which plainly
said each had determined upon a
field day, a day of freedom and a day
of relief from the cares of the office,
counting-room and house keeping. We
had more ladies ou board than men,
and among the party were a number or
children. Preceding the “Jerry” was
another boat carrying a band of music,
the baskets and several members of
the excursion crowded out of her.
After a pleasant run of seven miles
upon the placid waters of the Augusta
Canal, we, at 10 o’clock, arrived at the
Locks and immediately went ashore.
The party soon ascended the left bank
and gained the platform, but just as
tiie music was about to strike up a
glorious shower of rain came ou, which
cooled the atmosphere aud obscured
the sun, aud as pleasant as our sur
roundings were, they were from that
timo throughout the day far more so.
The rain lasted fully half an hour, our
company witnessing it fall far out over
the Savannah River and hills of South
Carolina from the verandahs of the
residences, offices and “headquarters”
arouud the Locks. We have had no
rain in so long that every one was
gratified beyond measure at seeing one.
When it had passed over we came
forth from shelter and inspected the
vast works erected, and now being built
to get control of the water which lias
bounded over the falls for six thousand
years and make it contribute to the
happiness of man. Tho writer was
struck with tho ponderous and massive
works of solid masonry which have
been constructed within the last seven
or eight mont’s. The same old block
and tackle used in building Solomon’s
Temple and in the construction of the
Pyramids of Egypt, we found here at
work lifting massive stones aud placing
them in position.
Once more upon the platform, the
music sounded, and the dance was
opened by the old “Virginia Reel,”
forty persons being engaged in it. For
full one hour tho reel held the couples
upon the floor, and so soon as it was
finished tho welcomo news flew around
the benches, “Dinner is ready.” It was
spread upon the bridge over the gates
to the canal; and such a dinner
as it was! The matrons accom
panying thoir lords and children
had made a direct effort to return com
pensation for the pleasure they had af
forded them iu taking this glorious
rido upon the water. After the ladies
left the table the men walked up and
wore in turn helped to the greatest
abundance of as nice a dinner as one
sees in years.
After dinner, the dance, whist, eucher
and strolls up and down the bank, oc
cupied the party until near sundown,
when we again boarded the boats and
started homeward. In addition to tho
regular string band on board, we had
several fine male and female voices
and the run down to the city was
made still more pleasant by them.
We reached the city just at dark, as
fresh as when starting, and all express
ing the hope that the time would soon
come when another excursion would be
gotten up.
Upon leaving the landing three cheers
and a vote of thanks were given to our
glorious Mayor, who is not only the
best municipal officer in the South, but
sociably a splendid man.
Hussar's Target.
The target at which the Hussars fired
on Tuesday, was on display in front of
Messrs. Wilson & Dunbar’s yester
day afternoon. Out of forty-eight
active members (fifty-four were pres
ent in uniform) who fired with the
pistol, three shots each, aud sixty sin
gle shots for the lady honorary mem
bers, eleven made centre shots.
Secretary Boyles adorned the board
with three humorously sketched plac
ards, showing his own shot iu an ima
ginary spot in the air on the right and
another member’s in a similar place on
the left; but the chief featureof the ar
tist’s woi’k was the figure of a slain Sand
Hill cow (which looked like a drowned
Tom cat) that bad been killed by three
shots from a sergeant of thd corps.
It is presumed that the cow when
struck was mildly chewing its cud in
distant Summerville.
Tlie Clinch Rifles.
The Charleston Neivs and Courier of
yesterday says: Ou Monday last tlie
Clinch Rifles, of Augusta, the company
who made such a handsome contribu
tion to the Easter Fair of the W. L. 1.,
had a grand parade and flag presenta
tion. The flag was the gift of the lady
honorary members of the corps, who
were represented by Maj. W. T. Gary,
the handsome and gallant, son of Edge
field, who has lately made his home in
Augusta. Maj. Gary made a clever
and well-timed speech, as he always
does, and was loudy applauded. After
the presentation ceremonies, the com
pany had a prize target excursion and
picnic.
BOLD ROBBERY.
Residence on the Band Hills Invaded
at Night.
During Wednesday night the resi
dence of Mr, Porter Fleming, in Sum
merville, was entered and robbed. On
awaking about 6 o’clock yesterday
morning, the owner discovered the per
petration of tho biiigiitry, but found,
as wo learn, no dun to the criminals.
After Mr. FleniiiV and his wife had
retired Wednesday night., and at some
hour before dawn, unknown persons
approached the window of their sleep
ing apartment on tho verandah, ele
vated the sash, entered aud after com
mitting a deliberate rilling of the room
departed at their leisure without dis
turbing any one, unnoticed and unin
terrupted. It was tlie custom of Mrs.
Fleming to place her silverware in a
basket at night, and take it
to Ivor private chamber for safe
keeping, and this had been done
on the evening referred to; but the
basket aud all the silverware it held
wore stolen, a dozen new sheets and a
number of table cloths in a drawer
were taken, and Mr. Fleming’s boots,
pants and other clothing, of which lie
bad disrobed himself for sleep, were
car tied off. Tho silver *poens aud
forks in tlie stolen silverware bear
family initials that may lead to their
recovery and the detection of the rob
bers.
Augusta to New York, via Port Royal.
The Port Royal and New York Steam
ship Line, by their advertisement in an
other column, offer better inducements
to all who may desire to visit New York
on business or pleasure in a reduction
of the fare to 830 from Augusta to New
York and return. The steamers Mont
gomery and Huntsville are well known
to our people, having been regular
liners between New York and Savannah
for several years. These vessels are
strictly first-class, cotrmmuded by able
aud experienced gentlemen, so that
passengers may feel secure iu not only
being in the hands of a careful and
competent commander, but will also
have all the accommodations of a first
class hotel.
We can recommend the line to our
people ; and at the low cost of fare, we
have no doubt many will avail them
selves of the opportunity for a pleasant
and cheap excursion to tlie North.

LOCUSTS AB FOOD.
Practical Test of tlie Matter Out West.
(Warrensburg (Mo.) Nows.)
Yesterday afternoon Messrs. Riley
and Straight determined to test the
cooked locust question in regard to its
adaptability as food for the human
stomach. Getting wind of the affair,
aud being always iu haste to indulge
in free feeding, we made bold to in
trude ourself on our scientific friends.
We found a bounteous table spread,
surrounded by tho gentlemen named,
accompanied by Mrs. Straight and Miss
Maltby. Without, much waste of cere
mony there were five persons seated,
and we were helped to soup, which
plainly showed its locust origin and
tasted like chicken soup—and it was
good ; after seasoning was added, we
could distinguish a delicate mushroom
flavor—and it was better. Then came
batter cakes, through which locusts
were well mixed. The soup had ban
ished silly prejudice and sharpened our
appetite for this next lesson, and bat
teicakes quickly disappeared also.
Baked locusts were then tried (plain
hoppers, without grease or condiment),
and either with or without accompani
ments it was pronounced an excellent
dish.
The meal was closed with dessert a
la John tho Baptist—baked locusts and
honey—aud, if wo know anything, we
cuu testify that that distinguished
Scripture character thrived on his rude
diet in tlie wilderness of Judea.
We believe this is the first attempt
at putting this insect to its best use,
aud the result is not only highly satis
factory to those brave enough to make
the attempt, but should this insect
make his visit oftener and c ause great
er destruction, future generations wifi
hail its presence with joy. It will be ju
bilee year, like manna iu tho wilderness
or quails in the desert—food without
money and without price.
Now, dear reader, you may shrug
your shoulders aud smile, but hence
forth we shall esteem grasshoppers as
a luxury to be classed with oysters,
truffles, mushrooms, etc.
As soon as arrangements can be
made, an assortment of locusts will be
sent to St. Louis, for a trial by the sci
entific researchers of that city.

Vanderbilt’s Kiglity-Firat Birtli-Day.
[New York Bun, May 29.)
Commodore Vanderbilt was eighty
one yearS old yesterday. He spent the
day in his Fourth street office, taking
his usual drive in the afternoon. A
Sun reporter visited him in the even
ing, to inquire about a favorable timo
for selling a few thousands in New
York Central.
“This,” said tho Commodore, slowly
and solemnly, as he entered tho draw
ing room, “is my birth-day.”
“Indeed,” said the reporter. “Do
you think the preferred stock—”
“To-day,” the Commodore interrupt
ed, “I am oighty-one years old ; I am
stronger —”
“Oh,” said the reporter, stronger.
Then it’s a good timo to hold?'’
“I am just as strong,” the Comtno
dare replied, “as I was this day forty
years ago. I don’t feel a day older. I
don’t think I am any older,” and ho
straightened his back and his neck-tie.
“Is there any prospect of an imme
diate rise ?”
“ I have uot'gone into the late supper
business,” the Commodore answered,
apparently not catching the drift of the
question, “ aud I have always been a
very temperate man. But how did you
And out that this was my birthday ?”
“You hinted at the fact yourself,”
tlie reporter replied ; “ will the Erie
troubles ”
“,The Erie troubles will not prevent
me from beginning my eighty-second
year with a young heart aud a clear
conscience. The newspapers have said
a gqod many hard things of me, but I
am still alive.”
“ And with the prospect of seeing a
good many more birth day anniversa

Read What the “ Medical Savans’’ Say
of the Celebrated Waters.
Dk. Noel, tlie late Resident Physician—
“ I regret at this time that I cannot give the
profession and the public the results of two
years’ close attention, for 1 have given
more than ordinary attention to this sub
ject, as two years ago, an invalid and con
sumptive, so pronounced by six physicians
of Baltimore, I sought these Springs as a
dernier resort, and returned in four months
a convalescent. I have, therefore, good
cause to stndy well tho action of the waters.
Consumption—l have seen it arrested in its
first stage. 1 have seen softening of the
tubercles arrested. I have seen the Con
secutive Bionchiti- arrested. I have seen
patient* gain in llesli and health.
Bronchitis— Oatarr hal—Su ppurative— and
Rheumatic Bronchitis I have seen cured,
and cured permanently.
Scrofula— Glandular Enlargements, Scrof
ulous Ulcers, Scrofulous Eruptions. Scrof
ulous Discharges from Ears and Eyes, A&,
I have seen yield most rapidly, and perma
nent cures result.”
Dr. Cartwright— “ In truth I know of no
waters in Euro]>e or America so rich in
medical substances as that of Rockbridge
Springs.”
Dr. T. Gaildaed Thomas, professor of
Obstetrics, College of Physicians and Sur
geons, New York —“ I would state that I re
gard it*as one of the most efficient astrin
gent and tonic Mineral Waters which I have
ever employed.”
Dk. Thomas Addis Emmet, Surgeon in
charge Woman’s. State Hospital, New York
—“I know of no Mineral Water so effica
cious” ******* I have used both
the water and dried preparation, or salts,
in private practice and in the Woman Hos
pital, for several years, to my great satis
faction.” mylß-tuthsat2m
