CITY TOPICS.
There are now twenty-six members
in the Augusta Boat Club.
Anybody wanting to help out the ve
locipede tournament can drop in at
Wilson & Dunbar’s.
Quite a lively interest in aquatic
sports has revived in Augusta boating
circles.
• And now a velocipede tournament is
on the tapis for the small boys, and
Wilson bo here. Let the Matt O’B.,

Mrs. Jarley is surely advancing on
this town, and has enlisted not a few
of Augusta’s fairest daughters in her
byhalf.
The quietness of the City Hall Park
is only disturbed now by the splash of
the fountains and the chirrups of little
chickens.
We have been requested not to men
tion in print who is the donor of that
splendid punch bowl to the Hussars,
and we Gray-ciously accede to this
wish.
Voluntary meeting and Bible read
ing by Y. M. C. A. to-night at 8 o’clock.
Meeting to be opened by Mr. F. T.
Lockhart.
St. George’s Society met last night,
sixteen members were present and
signed the constitution, and a treasury
was liberally started.
The officers of the Washington Light
Artillery having received their com
missions, the next thing to look for
is the arrival of the big guns and the
powder.
The average temperatures of last
week and the one previous were almost
exactly the same, that of the former
being 76 degrees, and that of the latter
76.7 degrees : and the highest tempera
ture for both weeks was 91 degrees.
While some dealers are looking for a
half cent advance per pound on ba
con, cotton is dull and drooping—and
that’s not encouraging for those who
raise cotton to buy bacon and buy ba

A convention of loafers is called for
4 o’clock this afternoon at the usual
place on Broad street. Members will
come fully armed and equipped with
flue cut, Havanas (made in Augusta)
and white pine for whittling. Profes
sional free lunch eaters will be given
front seats.

Rt. Rev. Wm. H. Gross, Bishop of the
Diocese of Savannah, will preach in
Waynesboro on Monday, Tuesday and

Washington Light Artillery.
The commissions for the officers elect
ed Monday night by the Washington
Light Artillery, were received from the
Governor yesterday. An election for
noncommissioned officers will doubt
less be held very soon and the complete
re-organization of this gallant corps
perfected.
Mrs. Jarley.
We are reliably informed that this
famous English lady, accompanied by
her full retinue, will reaeh the city next
Monday, and on the evening of that day
hold a private reception at a prominent
residence on Greene street, at which a
few special friends are expected. This
entirely private affair is to be prepara
tory to her first public appearance in
Augusta at an early day.
Cotton Exchange.
The Augusta Cotton Exchange is
progressing admirably under the ener
getic direction of Captain C. F. Wil
mans, the recently elected Honorary
Secretary, When that gentleman as
sumed the position he now so ably fills
there were forty members, and this
number has been increased to fifty
seven. Yesterday three new members
were elected: Mr. S. M. Whitney, of
Franklin & Whitney; Mr. W. A. Gar
rett, of Garrett & Latimer; and Mr.
John U. Meyer.
A Handsome Affair.
Yesterday morning that punch bowl
and ladle, whose expected arrival had
been mentioned in the Constitutiona
list, was received by express and pre
sented by the generous donor to the
Hussars. The punch bowl is of sterl
ing silver, inlaid with gold, and is sup
ported by a silver column which like
the extenor of the bowl is tastefully
chased in leaves, clustering grapes and
vines, and rests upon a broad square
frosted eilver basis, on each of the four
corners of which is the silver figure of
a girl with a silver wine bowl on her
head.
The design is beautifully appropriate,
the work elegantly exocuted and artisti
cally finished, and the bowl itself one
of the handsomest affairs of tho kind—
if not the very finest—ever brought to
Augusta. It is worthy to be christened
with champagne punch, and the Hus
sars are the cavaliers to do it.
An Inquiry About Stamps.
To the Postmaster ’ of the Augusta Post
Office, Augusta, Oa.:
Dear Sib —l have sought for and
sent for two-cent stamps and two-cent
stamped wrappers, time and again.
Are there such things in existence, au
thorized by our Government ? If not,
then pardon my ignorance and the
inquiry. I thought such had been au
thorized by the Government. If not let
the trusting multitude be informed. I
thought that there were two-cent
stamps and two-cent stamped newspa
per wrappers—have thought so since
May last gone; tried, but never could
find one in the Augusta Post Office.
Perhaps I am uninformed and igno
rant, but upon you I rely, in my sim
plicity, for information. Nemo.

PULLING ON THE CANAL.
Three Crews of th Augusta Boat
Club Dashing Water.
Promptly at five o’clock yesterday
afternoon a number of the members
of Boat Club met at their
; boat-house on the canal.,, to inaugurate
! their proposed practice for the season.
It had been nearly a year since their
oars had been wet, but the gentlemen
zealously and earnestly entered into
the sport of the afternoon and 3oon
had three boats floating on the bosom
of the canal.
The first to touch the water was the
jaunty paper shell, the “Lady Emma,”
which was manned by the following
evenly balanced crew: H. C. Cashin,
stroke; C. E. Clark, No. 3; Henry
Cranston, No. 2 ; E. H. Walton, bow.
Handling their oars nicely and giv
ing fairest promise of swift work, the
crew of the “ Lady Emma ” shot their
light craft out on the canal, and soon
were far away on the course to Lake
Olmstead.
The paper shell, ' Lady Warren,”
was next launched, and this goodly
crew manned her : Samuel C. Weisiger,
stroke; S. G. Simmons, No. 3; H. T.
Campfield, No. 2; G. E. Whitney, bow.
Steadily and evenly gliding away in
the yet rippling wake of the preceed
ing shell, the “ Lady Warren ” grace
fully obeyed the firm strokes of her
crew, whose strong arms and regular
licks at once showed familiarity and
skill at such exercise.
For some who were there the launch
ing and manning of the “ Rebecca ”
was the interesting event of the after
noon, as she is the first boat ever own
ed by the Club and was to be manned
by a picked crew, that is, a crew pick
ed up on the spot. This crew was as
follows : W. J. Cranston, stroke ; J. W
Clark, No. 3 ; C. T. Fargo, No. 2 ; P. G.
Burum, how; A. M. Ateur, cox
swain. The craft did not belie
her name, “ Rebecca ” being familiarly
associated with the act of drawing
water, but the way that boat took water
when about the middle of the canal
demonstrated to some on board of her,
that “ Rebecca” was just about as good
at drawing water from a canal as
from a well, if pot better. She had
been so long unused that her bot
tom had sprung, and she leaked
so liberally that it was a tight
question between making shore
or a swim for her crew, and when the
latter landed it may be remarked that
the gentle waves were splashing with
uncomfortable fondness about the seats
they were occupying. So the “Rebec
ca” was reswung in tho boat house and
the picked crew condemned (fortunate
ly perhaps) to continue dry on land.
The crews of the “Lady Emma” and
of the “Lady Warren” enjoyed each a
splendid pull up the caual and to the
head of the lake, three miles and back.
The practice for the announced races
on the 16th of July thus opened aus
piciously and most satisfactorily. The
crews that will pull on the occasion will
be regularly made up next week and
begin steady work.
FUN FOR THE LITTLE FOLKS.
A Velocipede Touruamentto be Given
on Greene Street.
The lords and ladies of creation are
requested to give place for a moment,
and let the merry little folks have a
glorious frolic and bushels of fun of
their own.
Under the kindly auspices of Col.
Richard J. Wilson and Mr. Matt
O’Brien, a velocipede tournament is
being engineered to come off on to-day
week, Saturday, 12th in.st., in which
the juveniles of our city from four to
thirteen years old are to be invited to
participate, and for whom indeed the
pleasant affair is being gotten up.
It is proposed that the entertainment
shall take place on the sidewalk on the
southside of Greene street in front of
the City Hall, thus affording an ample
and nice place for ladies and other
spectators in the park there, while the
level walk gives a fine area for the
bicycle performers. These latter are to
be arranged in classes according to
ages, and for each class a prize is
to be offered. Col. Wilson has
already presented a handsome sil
silver cup for the occasion, and Mr.
Matt O’Brien a choice silver vase.—
Other prizes will be provided, aud will
be so distributed as to bring out the
individual merits of all the riders who
may enter, as well as to touch up
sharply their aspirations for bicycle
fame and glory.
Grown folks have been feasting at
’cues and target excursions and straw
berry festivals and evening prome
nades, and we are sure the kindly and
thoughtful suggestions of Col. Wilson
and Mr. O’Brien in behalf of the future
fathers and mothers of the land will
meet with prompt and hearty re
sponse from all bosoms.
The tournament will take place on
Saturday, the weekly holiday of the
little folks, and will, bring them rar*
happiness and pleasure. In the mean
time, ample time is given, in the week
to elapse before the day arrives, for the
selection and preparation of the fancy
costumes that will be worn on the oc
casion, as well as for good practice on
the velocipede by all.
As Good as New. —The above ex
pression is peculiarly applicable to the
individual whose system has been reno
vated by Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters.
If any man or woman in this commu
nity has a friend suffering from the
various pangs which indigestion, ner
vous disease, weak t back or kidney
trouble can inflict, the most rational
advice he or she can give is—“ Procure
the Bitters at once, and use them regu
larly.” If this advice is heeded, we
guarantee that in a shirt time the in
valid will feel “as good as new,” so
marked and so rapid will be the change
for the better wrought by this peerless
invigorant, nervine and diuretic. It not
only re-establishes digestion and stimu
lates the organs of urination into
healthful activity, but expels by the
natural outlets of the body those acrid
elements in tbe secretions which, when
absorbed into the blood, produce rheu
matism, gout and neuralgia. More
over, its gentle though effectual action
admirably fits it for the use of females
in delicate health, who require a tonic
stimulant and corrective. jei-thsatu&c

The President’s Views on General
Sherman's Book.
fSpgcial Dispatch -to the Baltimore Sun.}
Washington, June I.— The President
said to-day that he had been reading
the book of General Sherman with
much interest, and he thought it was a
very good book. So far as he had pro
gressed iu the reading, he did not think
the work properly subject to as much
criticism as he had expected from what
he had heard of it. There were a great
many statements in it which no doubt
appeared extraordinary, but the por
tions of the book which he had perused
did not exhibit as many inaccuracies
as he had lo6ked for. There were no
doubt a great many people who would
assume to give different versions of
the events narrated by General Sher
man, and this was naturally to be ex
pected, as a work of the kind was cer
tain to tread upon some one’s toes.
The President, of course, reserves his
opinion of the work as a whole until
he has finished its perusal, but the fa
vorable manner in which he now speaks
of it will be somewhat of a surprise to
those who have imagined that he would
feel personally agrieved by some of its
comments. The fact seems to be that
the President is convinced that it is
beyond the pow9r of General Sherman
or of any one else to take from him
the laurels with which he has been
decked. .
The editor of the Piedmont Virginian
does not beat around the bush. Last
week he was compelled, owing to the
delinquency of subscribers and adver
tisers, to issue his paper on a half
sheet. His explanation is characteris
tic and will probably induce those who
should support him to come to time.
We append it as a specimen of what a
journalist can say when he gets real
mad;
“Owing to the meanness of our pat
rons in not paying us money enough to
buy paper, we are compelled to issue a
half sheet this week. We present this
on account of our prompt paying
friends. As to our delinquents, they
can go to the so far as we care.”

FINANCE AND TRADE.
WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE AUGUS
TA MARKETS.
Constitutionalist Office, i
6 O’CLOCK P. M. June 4,1875. $
In the dullest part of the year, business
is necessarily dull, uo extraordinary events
transpiring or conditions arising to infuse
into commerce unnatural activity and ex
citement.
Cotton has wagged along, with a slight
decline of %in higher grades early in the
week, and a decidedly drooping tendency.
Groceries, plantation supplies and dry
goods have not been inactive, and yet small
transactions only have Laker, place. An
advance of %c, per pound is looked for by
some dealers in bacon for June. Avery
satisfactory cash trade is being done in
bacon now.
The markets are not flat or despondent,
being sustained by a free and healthy tone,
but little is doing in accordance with the
regular experience of trade, at this season.
Amongst securities it will be observed
that Georgia State B’s new bonds have ad
vanced under a demand from 102, as quoted
last week, to lOialOo, while in railroad
bonds Port Royal first mortgage gold 7’s
endorsed by Georgia railroad have pushed
up from 81a82 to 81a83. Central railroad
stock has depreciated from 57%a58, as
quoted last week, to 50, aud the stock of
tbe Atlanta and West Point has advanced
from 70 to 72%. Gas is getting on happily,
it seems, the stock of the i Augusta
Gas Company 25 at par having step
ped up from 42 to 43, while the stocks
of Augusta Factories stand dull at last
week’s figures.
Financial. .
Little paper has been afloat during tho
week, and very light transactions have oc
curred in securities. A few slight varia
tions may be noted in quotations.
Money is still plentiful, but only obtain

As for the week previous, cotton has con

the market being easy with small demand
and slight offerings. An uncertain declino
of % in the early part of the week in high

its end, and the market closed yesterday
dull and drooping, with receipts for the

access'on to stocks, no depression is any
where noticeable. The holidays ob-erved

price. The under current of confidence in
cotton at the present range of values,which
has sus'ained the market during a long pe
riod of small deliveries and liberal imports
still prevails. It must be admitted that the
prolonged dullness and increasing stocks
are severely testing the strength of the
market. On the 15th of April last the stock
here stood at 873,640 bales, and in order to
exhibit clearly the difficulties holders have
had to contend against, we give the weekly
movement and price of mi< idling uplands
for the six weeks commencing that date:
Deliveries. Tot’l
Week ending Trade. Exp’t. St’ck. Mid.
Ap. 15 54,580 10,782 873,640 8
Ap. 22 50,230 8,631 887,920 7 15-16
Ap. 29 52,420 9,153 892,950 7 15-10
May 6 50,810 7,900 951,130 7%
May 13 52,300 6,427 961,110 7%
May 20 36.660 6,531 988,300 7%
The average deliveries to the trade dur
ing these six weeks have been only 49,500
and for export 8,288 bales, and the stock has
gone on increasing until it now reaches the
large total of 988,800 bales. It may bo ta
ken for granted tJiat the stock has now
reached the maximum point for the season.
Last year the maximum (1,003,910 bales)
was not reached until the week ending 16th
July. For some time to come, therefore,
we have the prospect of declining stocks
this a against increasing stocks last year,
and the comparison will doubtless be a
Source of strength to holders. During the
next two weeks wo will be c ounting against
an aggregate import for the same two
two weeks last year of 275,452 bales,
and an increase in stock of 175,29 u
bales. In the meantime th■> confidence
in an amelioration oi the present depressing
state of things lies mainly in the expecta
tion ot an early revival in the trade de
mand. No speculative movement ot con
sequence seems to oe expected in the face
of such a large stock, but as the trade
have roiuoed their surplus supplies very
considerably during the past six weeks, a
healthy demand from that quarter is look
ed for. Should, however, there tie no in
crease of business forthcoming after this
week the disappointment among holders
will be very great, and although opinion is
still against any material decline in prices,
yet the situation would become very try
ing and some decline might have to be sub
mitted to.
The receipts at Bombay, which have
exercised an important influence this so i
son, were last week heavier than generally
expected, and have had a depressing effect
on this market. This week they again
promise to be full, but if, as latest tele
grams seem to indicate, the monsoon bui sts
this season earlier than usual, the ship
ments from Bombay in June are likely to
be much smaller than in June of last year.
The continental war cloud, to which we
referred in our last report, has apparently
passed away, but it now appears that the
situation was at one time considered so
very grave* so fraught with danger to the
peace of Europe, that the Governments of
England, Russia, Austria and Italy ten
dered their good offices in order to bring
about a pacific solution. But this threat
ened danger arose so unexpectedly that
many are yet afraid it may as suddenly re
appear. and for this reason we can hardly
say that confidence has been completely
restored. Moreover, if we consider that in
Fiance ad Germany we have two nations
jealously watching each other, and each
arming to the teeth, the future of continen
tal polities is not altogether reassuring.
We estimate the visible supply of the
world in stocks and afloatrat 2,720,140 bales,
agaipst 2,824, 300 bales this date of 1874, and
2,629,020 bales this date of 1873.
The stock of cotton held by English spin
ners we now estimate at 167,000 bales,
against 256,000 last year, and 188,000 the
year before at same date.
