CITY 'TOPICS.
Twenty-five patients are in the City
Hospital now.
The boats will leave at 5 and 8:30
this morning for the Locks.
July is to open with an Odd Fellows,
pic-nic at the Platz.
Our amateur oarsmen met at their
Boat House yesterday afternoon.
The Charleston military will, we learn,
stop at the Augusta Hotel during their
visit to celebate the Fourth.
The annual examination of Hough
ton Institute opened quite satifactorily
yesterday.
The body of the negro, Henry Daniels,
was turned over to his wife Sunday
morning for burial.
Seventeen dogs were captured yester
day by the canine-catchers, for which
the catchers got $8.50.
The new hall of Oglethorpe Infantry
Company A, in Warren Block, is to be
christened in the pleasant old way next
Saturday night.
A petition for the pardon of the little
negro boy, Joe Harris, who was sen
tenced to a year in the penitentiary,
was signed by the county officers yes
terday and forwarded to Gov. Smith.
At the Arsenal, on the Sand Hills,
the highest tempereture recorded this
Summer is 97 degrees, the same regis
tered at the Signal Office in the city.
The observations are regularly taken
there by Sergt. Thompson.
Let the Fourth be observed as a gen
eral holiday, and the young men of our
city relieved by their employers from
attendance at the stores by closing up
all places of business.
Joe Johnson, a negro boy, was yes
terday sent to,the county chain gang
for twelve months by the County
Court for the popular offence of va
grancy.
The ’cue at the Locks to-day will be
an entirely legal affair. The meats will
be cooked according to law, and cham
pagne imprisoned by rules of court.
But as it is known no imbibing is ever
done by the bar, the rules of court will
doubtless be suspended. We trust
nothing will happen necessitating a re
sort to the Code.
Closing Up.
It is a good suggestion that all places
of business in Augusta be closed on
the occasion of the approaching Fourth
of July celebration. This will allow
the clerks to turn out with their milita
ry companies. Business is dull and we
presume proprietors will not hesitate
to unite in the matter.
Window Open.
As the policeman who went on duty
at 12 o’clock last night was making the
first round on his beat on Broad west
of Jackson and examining the windows
of the stores along the south side of
Broad, he found the front window of
Messrs. Urquhart & Smith’s hardware
establishment, 276 Broad, to yield to
his touch. The bar was unfastened.
Effort was made to hunt up Mr. Smith,
one of the proprietors, but without
success, and the store was watched ali
night.
Lusus Naturce
Mr. John S. Lyons, who resides near
the Presbyterian Church, brought to
the Constitutionalist office yesterday
a hen-egg, around the small end of
which was a formation in the shape of
a ring that was detached from the shell
except at the extremity which was
joined to the egg. It was a perfectly
developed egg in every respect, in
quality of shell and in shape, with this
curious addition.
Odd Fellows’ Picnic.
The members of Washington and
Miller Lodges of the Independent Or
der of Odd Fellows will enjoy a picnic
at the Schutzenplatz on next Thursday,
the first of July. While there will
be no barbecue, a table will be spread
and those present handsomely enter
tained. A most pleasant time may be
anticipated.
Up the Canal To-Day.
The pic-nic at the Locks tendered
the Augusta bar by Judge Gibson and
the officers of court will doubtless
pleasantly signalize this day. Two
boats will go up, the first leaving the
basic at 5 o’clock and the second at
8:30 o’clock this morning. For those
who may make tiie trip on the earlier
boat, a magnificent breakfast will be
spread at the Locks upon arrival.
“First Love.”
We had the pleasure yesterday after
noon of looking at a thorough-bred
colt just Drought over by Major W. T.
Gary from his Edgefield plantation. It
is a lovely blood-bay filly, docile and
intelligent, with a clear eye and hair as
soft and glossy as silk. She has been
named “First Love,” and with her fine
points the course of this “First Love”
will doubtless run stnoothe. The beauty
is a niece of the celebrated racer “Long
fellow,” and is in the charge of Mr.
Thomas Murray, who will train her to
run as a two-year old in next season’s
races. As yet she has never had a sad
dle on.
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.
A New Lecture Room to be Built —The
Edifice to be Reconstructed—The
Pastor Granted Four Months’ Leave
of Absence.
After services last Sunday morning
there was held a meeting of the con
gregation of the Greene Street First
Baptist Church.
A resolution was adopted granting
leave of absence for four months to
the pastor, Rev. M. B. Wharton, D. D.,
who will travel for his health till Octo
ber, visiting the Virginia Springs and
other Summer watering-places.
Of the SIO,OOO appropriated by a vote
; of the congregation to erect anew lec
ture room and remodel the interior of
the church, $7,500 have already been
raised. Anew lecture room is to be
built on the site of the present one,
larger in size and superior in style to
it. The interior of the church, embrac
ing ceiling, gallery, pulpit and pews,
will be entirely changed and refitted,
the contract for the work having alrea
dy been given out.
The edifice will be closed during the
next four months in Dr. Wharton’s ab
sence, for the completion of these al
terations, and will be reopened in Octo
ber with a sacred concert to be given
under the auspices of the ladies who
have already accumulated a handsome
fund toward paying for the new organ
that is to be added to the church. A
meeting was held at 10 o’clock yester
day morning by the ladies in reference
to the matter.
The Dogs and the Weather.
We heard it asserted yesterday that
dogs never go mad in this climate, and
that ail apprehensions about hydro
phobia among canines here are mere
humbug. Whether this be true or not,
we can’t say, knowing nothing of the
matter, but we can testify to one thing
and that is that we never saw a mad
dog in the quarter of a century we
have passed south of Mason and Dix
on’s line.
In the opinion of our friend, hydro
phobia doesn’t attack dogs iu this lat
itude. Certain it is that when the ther
mometer stood at forty degrees below
zero during Dr. Kane’s Arctic explora
tions, some of the dogs he had along
went mad and had to be killed.
Commenting upon the annual advent
of the dog-slaughtering time, the New
York Herald recently remarked as fol
lows:
For yet another season the great
canine and canicular problems are be
fore the public. Bergh will begin to
rage, and the dog star will be men
tioned ; muzzles will come into the
foreground ; learned veterinarians will
be brought forward to prove that hy
drophobia is a delusion, and that it
would be better for society if there were
none of it; and, finally, the aldermen
will ordain that all loose dogs shall be
impounded and otherwise legally dealt
with, and in turn will be denounced
for ignorance and barbarity. We re
gard it as a very satisfactory igno
rance, however, which iu the doubt
and apprehension that naturall sur
round the disease of hydrophobia
in dogs and men results in giving us
the certainty of not encountering, iu
every few miles of our streets, from
ten to fifty wretched and ownerless
curs. It is clear enough legally, we
suppose, that the owner of a dog which
bites a person is responsible in dam
ages ; but who is responsible where the
owner is not found ? Presumably it
must be the city, which, by its negli
gence, permits these curs to roam the
streets. And the only way the city
has to protect itself is to clear the
streets of these useless and mischiev
ous creatures.
A Petition for Pardon.
The timely discovery of the negro,
Henry Daniels’, project to burn down
the jail and escape Saturday night was
due to disclosures made by the little
boy, Joe Harris, who occupied the cell
with him. Joe was convicted of invol
untary manslaughter at the last term
of Richmond Superior Court and sen
tenced to one year’s incarceration in
the penitentiary.
Iu consideration of his action in giv
ing information of Daniels’ diabolical
purpose to do what he could towards
burning down the jail and escaping, a
petition to the Governor for the par
don of Joe Harris was yesterday fixed
up by Messrs. Barnes & Gumming
and signed by the county officers. A
copy of the evidence in the case was
attached to the petition, which was for
warded by mail last night to the Chief
Magistrate of the State.
Harris is about eleven years old, and
besides his tender age there are cir
cumstances attending the killiug that
relieve it of much of the dark hue of
crime. We are sure the exercise of
Executive clemency in this case will,
under the facts and in view of Harris’
action in disclosing the desperadoe’s
project, meet with the universal ap
proval of our people.
The Richland Rifle Club of Columbia.
We had the pleasure of meeting at
the Planter’s yesterday, two of the offi
cers of the Richland Rifle Club of Co
lumbia, South Carolina. These were
Lieutenant W. C. Swaffield and Lieu
tenant W. R. Cathcart, who had come
over to secure quarters for the riflemen
on the occasion of their approaching
visit to Augusta on the Fourth. The
Club will have some sixty muskets
along, besides guests who will swell the
number of Columbia visitors to one
hundred. They will come by special
train, and stop at the Central Hotel.
The Rifles are composed of splendid
material, counting in their ranks the
very best young men of the gallant
city of Columbia. The United States
post band stationed there will accom
pany the volunteers.
The Morning Stars.
The Morning Star Benevolent So
ciety, composed of young colored boys,
enjoyed an excursion to Millet Station,
on the Port Royal Railroad, yesterday,
and a fine pic-nic. Four hundred per
sons were along, and not a single fuss
or the slightest disturbance marred the
pleasure of the occasion, and this, too,
in the face of the fact that a similar af
fair has hardly ever taken place from
Augusta without much cracking of
skulls and indulgence in hard words
among the darkies.
The crowd was large, four coaches
being filled, but everything was well
managed, the best order preserved and
everybody pleased.
McVoy’s Powdered Kalye.
We have been presented with a sam
ple of the above named article, which
the manufacturer offers as a detergent,
superior to soap and all alkali prepara
tions, and more economical. We have
given it a trial and are favorably im
pressed with its cleansing properties. In
the washing of type, cleaning of paint,
scouring of floors, etc., it acts like a
charm: it is claimed to be, and is,
equally efficacious iu the laundry; read
ily loosening the dirit from all kinds of
garments, and removing it with as lit
tle or less labor than the ordinary pro
cess. It is also a disenfectant and par
ticularly obnoxious to bed bugs and
such like vermin when used according
to directions. Roberts & Cos., have it
for sale. See advertisement in another
column.
Made a Doctor of Divinity.
The Washington and Leo University,
of Virginia, has conferred the degree of
Doctor of Divinity upon Rev. M. B.
Wharton, the accomplished pastor of
the First Baptist Church.
Independent Battalion.
The officers of the Independent Bat
tilion held a large meeting Saturday
evening, fourteen out of eighteen offi
cers of the line being in attendance.
Lieutenant Colonel Barrett presided.
Committees reported and the ar
rangements for the ’cue on the ap
proaching July holiday were shown to
be progressing in lovely style.
The manner of the reception to be
tendered our Charleston visitors was
discussed at length. On motion of
Captain Clark, of the Oglethorpe In
fantry Company B, the resolution
adopted at the last meeting of the offi
cers to call out the whole battalion and
receive the Charleston companies in
full military array on their arrival Sun
day evening, the Fourth of July, was
reconsidered. This was done in respect
for the character of that day.
Adjutant Geo. P. Butler moved that
the Lieutenat-Colonel commanding and
the Captains of the four companies of
the corps be appointed a committee of
reception to proceed to the depot in citi
zens’ dress, there receive the Charles
ton companies on arrival and thence
escort them to the collation to be pre
pared for their refreshment in the new
hall of the Oglethorpe Infantry Com
pany A, in Warren Block. This resolu
tion was adopted.
It has been determined to have tar
get practice on the occasion at the
platz for prizes to be offered by the
battalion for the Charleston volunteers.
The shooting will be under direction of
a committee, composed of Captain Dan
iels, of Oglethorpe Infantry Company
A; Captain O’Connor, of the Irish Vol
unteers ; Captain Clark, of Oglethorpe
lufantry Company B; and Captain Ford,
of the Clinch Rifles.
A salute of twelve guns will be fired
by the Washington Light Artillery on
the morning of the celebration, and at
noon at the platz a full national salute.
The Hussars and the Washington Light
Artillery will be invited to join the bat
talion on the occasion in full force.
This article was set up for our last
issue, but wa3 unavoidably left over
till this morning.
Two at Once.
Two excursions left Augusta for
Charleston Saturday evening, one over
the line of the South Carolina Railroad
and the other over the Port Royal, and
the trains returned all right yesterday
morning. About two hundred persons
went down over the Carolina road,
while five or six hundred rode on the
Port Royal line. This difference iu pa
tronage is doubtless attributable to the
fact that the fare on the former was
two dollars and on the latter only one
dollar.
A Curious Fact.
A gentleman mentioned to the writer
yesterday a fact that he had observed
since 1840, namely, that it always rains
on the 21st of June. He assured us
that he had not seen it miss but once
in thirty-five years. The days are then
the longest in the whole year, but we
don’t know that this has anything to
do with the rainy phenomenon.
Impounding Cattle.
Mr. Editor : I was an eye witness a
few days ago to the impounding of
cows iu “Hamburg,” and the brutality
with which they were treated, being beat
up with bricks in trying to put them in
a small pen on the river bank. The
cattle belong to citizens of our town
who had not paid the license on them.
Now, why do our bridge keepers let
such cattle pass without toll being paid
on the same? When the owners go
and get them out they have to pay 15
cents to get them back if they drive
them. This is a profitable revenue lost
by Augusta and gained by Hamburg
and should be seen about by our
City Fathers.
“ Cow Owner.”
Reasons Why.— The reasons why Dr.
Price’s True Flavoring Extracts, Lem
on, Vanilla, etc., are superior to all oth
ers is because they aro prepared from
the choicest selected fruits and aromat
ics, without coloring or poisonous oils,
that all the flavoring principles are
retained unchanged by chemical action,
highly concentrated, requiring less to
flavor, that there is no deception in bot
tles as they hold one-half more
than those sold for the same size.
That they are in every particular like
his celebrated Cream Baking Powder—
perfect. je29-tuthsasu.
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., that this remedy
will not cure at once and permanently.
It purifies the Blood, Liver, Spleens,
and all secretory organs.so effectually
that the chills will not return during
the season, even when persons have
had them for years. Sold by F. A.

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
BAAIf AGFNfTS wanted to sell “The Peo-
BUUA /VliLii 1 o pj e ’ a Common Sense
Medical Adviser.” It is the cheapest book
ever published; 885 pages, over 251 illustra
tions, $1.50. Thousands buy it at sight
who could not be induced to purchase the
high-priced b oks treating of Domestic
Medicine. Unlike other books sold through
agents this work is thoroughly advertised
throughout North America. This fact,
together with the large size, elegant ap
pearance, and many new features of the
book, causes it to sell more rapidly thau
any work ever published in tiiis country.
Thus i of my agents who have had experi
ence in selling nooks, say that in all their
previous canvassing they never met with
such such success or made so large wages,
as since commencing the salo of my work.

of the Celebrated Waters.
Dr, Noel, the late Resident Physician—
“l regret at this time ttiat I cannot give the
profession and the public tne results of two
years’ c ; ose 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 study well the action of the waters.
Consumption—l have seen it arrested in Us
first stage. I have seen softening of the
tubercles arrested. 1 have seen the Con
secutive Bionehiti- arrested. I have seen
patients gain in flesh and health.
Bronchitis—^ Catarrhal—Suppurative—and
Rheumatic Bronchitis I have seen cured,
and cured permanently.
Scrofula— Glandular Enlargements, Scrof
ulous Ulcers, Scrofulous Eruptions, Scrof
ulous Dischafges front Ears and Eyes, Ac.,
I have seen yield most rapid, y, and perma
nent cures result.”
Dr. Cartwright—“ In truth I know of no
waters in Europe or America so rich in
medical substances as that of Rockbridge
Springs.”
Dr. f. Gajllard Thomas, Professor of
Obstetrics. College of Physicians and Sur
geons, New York—” 1 would state that I re
gard it as one of the most efficient astrin

ever employed.”
