85 degrees.
Quietness reigned supreme at the
police office yesterday.
The lamps on the streets did not
burn very brightly last night.
There was a halo around the moon
last night, which was in its first quar
ter.
John U. Meyer, Esq., will act as
Mayor pro tern. duriDg the absence of

The receipts of cotton yesterday were
only 3 bales, and sales 4 bales. Re
ceipts of the week 195 bales.
The morning prayer meetings held at
8:30 a. m., at the hall of the Y. M. C. A.,
have been well attended.
There will be a business meeting of
the First Baptist Church this afternoon
at 4 o’clock, at the Masonic Hall.
A full report of the Augusta mar
kets for the week, prepared with care,
appears this morning in our columns.
The well kept team of the “ Gazelle ”
was out yesterday afternoon with the
beautiful steamer of that company to
keep it in trim for running to fires.
The tine steamer of the “Georgia”
was again out on Broad street for trial
yesterday afternoon, and appeared to
work finely in testing the new air
chamber.
The Douglass Infantry (col.) turned
out in full uniform yesterday afternoon
to attend the funeral of a deceased
member, George Kelly, and attracted a
large number of colored spectators.
A considerable number of persons
stopped yesterday to view the life size
painting of a fine steer on the wall of
the new meat house at the old stand of
the Georgia State Lottery, executed in
one day by Mr. E. H. Miller.
Splendid drapes.
Mr. W. K. Nelson has our thanks
for a basket of Wilder, Delaware and
Concord grapes. They ate perfect
beauties and of delicious flavor. Mr.
Nelson seems to have great success
as a horticulturist.
Almost a Fire.
We learn that yesterday some time
previous to the hour of noon a wooden
building nearly in the rear of the street
car stables accidentally caught fire, but
the flames were subdued before auy
general alarm ensued. Citizen Fire
Company, No. 8 was promptly on hand
and stretched their hose, but fortu
nately their services were not needed.
There was but slight damage.
Recovering.
Mr. Satterlie, who had one of his legs
badly crushed some months ago by
rocks at the Canal Locks, has, we are
glad to learn, become able to be out.
At one time it was thought necessary
to amputate the injured limb, but he
would not consent. Mr. Satterlie was
connected with the contractors in the
enlargement of the Augusta Canal.
Again Postponed.
Jas. Kelley, who is charged with
shooting at Autony Hutchinson in the
round house of the Georgia Railroad
(both employes of the road) last Wed
nesday morning, was a second time
brought before Justice E. D. Wingard

nation was again postponed until Mon
day.
Stop Thief.
Yesterday morning, between the
hours of two and four, someone of the
night prowlers entered a room on the
premises of Mr. F. H. Siuger, upper
part of Broad street, and purloined
therefrom anew pair of very flne black
cassimere pantaloons and an umbrella;
from the pockets of a coat hanging in
close proximity to the pants, was ex
tracted a flne linen handkerchief, a
breastpin and three pieces of gold, out
of which, the owner, Mr. C. M. Roberts,
designed having made a set of studs.
In view of the fact that two persons
were sleeping in the room at the time
of" the robbery, it would seem that the
intruder was an adept at the business,
but why he did not take the coat as well
as its contents, puzzles the owner to ac
count for. A pair of suspenders near
lv new, attached to the pants, were left
on the lot. The entrance was made
through an open window, on the ground
floor opening on a very narrow alley
wav ’ That window will in the future
be ciosed ere the occupants of the room
reeten Uiemselves to the embrace ot
Momheua. After the horse is stolen,
jock the stable door.
New Books.
A Double Wedding; or, How She Was
Won, by Mrs. C. A. Warfield, author of
“The Household of Bouverie,” is pub
lished by T. B. Peterson & Brothers,
Philadelphia, and we predict for it as
great a popularity and as large a sale
as her previous work, “The Household
of Bouverie,” which has been pronounc
ed by all the best writers and critics in
the country to be one of the best and
most remarkable works ever written.
It has the great merit of arousing curi
osity and keeping it alert, from the first
to the last line. There is great power
of language in it, manifested not only
in the descriptive portions, and in rare
images, but in the happy epithet that
often tells the whole story. The plot
is skilfully conducted, and there is an
earnestness in the style that is charm
ing. From the first to the last chapter,
the reader’s interest in the story never
for a moment flags. His curiosity,
which is excited at the very commence
ment of the tale, though gratified, lit
tle by little, as the story progresses, is
not completely satisfied, uutil the cur
tain is about to drop at the close of the
book. There is in it a blending of heart
and intellect really wonderful, and its
delineations of character are vivid,
clear, powerful, and exquisite. None
but a woman could have written it—
none but a woman of the highest order
could give such sketches of character.
Mrs. Warfield is a southern woman and
stands in the front rank of female no
velists in America. She is far su
perior iu culture, genuine power and
true talent to the author of Beulah,
and her story thrills you as the eye of
the Ancient Mariner fascinated the
wedding guest.
Eglantine. A Novel By Eliza Tabor. Har
per Bros.
Miss Tabor has written quite a num
ber of romances, all of which are ex
cellent. She has a thorough knowledge
of the world and conveys it in the most
picturesque and earnest language. Her
art is all her own, showing creative
faculties of a very high order. We
have read her “Hope Meredith,” “St.
Olaves,” “Jeanie’s Quiet Life,” and
“Meta’s Faith,” and can truthfully de
clare that they are amongst the best
books of the kind in our lighter litera
ture. They are taken up with avidity
and laid down with reluctance. In
“Eglantine,” her latest production, we
find all the happiest characteristics of
her former works.
“The Way We Live Now.” By Anthony
Trollope. Harper Bros.
The mere announcement of anew
book by Anthony Trollope is sufficient
to beget an eager demand of the novel
reading community. In the work be
fore us we find the peculiar style of the
author, his intimate acquaintance with
English life, especially that genteel so
ciety which hovers around broad acres,
political dominion and the clerical fold
of cathedral towns. Mr. Trollope is
perfectly self-possessed. He has a
purpose to fulfill in his books and
never loses sight of it. He may arrange
his characters too much with the preci
sion of puppets but they are instinct with
real and breathing life, such as we
know and see around us under different
lorms and in a different civilization.
The lovers of an intense French school
of fiction will not take kindly to him
perhaps; but he can never fail to de
light all who appreciate subdued force
and self-collected talents in symmetri
cal display. In “The Way We Live
Now” he takes the reader deliberately
by the hand, wanders with him through
the complications of a life-drama, and
dismisses him eventually with a bless
ing. Until the last word is spoken we
cannot break the subtle spell and would
not if we could. The book is beauti
fully bound and handsomely illus
trated.
Sermons Out op Church. By the Author
of “John Halifax. Harper Bros.
Any one who has followed Miss Mu
lock from “John Halifax” to “The
Woman’s Kingdom”—from her first to
her last remarkable fiction, need not
be told that when she chose to break
her enchanter’s waud and convey moral
lessons in the form of an essay, it
would be only another proof of her
pure womanhood and surpassing genius
for inculculating divine truths by a
simpler, if not quite so effective,
medium. In her present volume she
discourses upon these subjects: “What
is Self Sacrifice?” “Our Often Infir
mities.” “How to Train Up a Parent in
the Way He Should Go.” “Benevo
lence or Beneficence ?” “My Brother’s
Keeper.” “Gather Up the Fragments.”
Many a male preacher might win repu
tation by delivering in the church any
thing half so good, in the way of a ser
mon, as this highly endowed and great -
souled woman has given to the world
from her writing desk as a pulpit out
side the sanctuary, of brick and mor
tar, but inside the unhedged taberna
cle of the Master of Life and Death.
Messrs. Quinn & Pendleton have our
thanks for copies of these publications.
Honor to Whom Honor is Due.

A Large Amount of Bonds Sold.
We learn that SBO,OOO worth of bonds
issued by the Augusta Factory Com
pany have already been sold at par by
Mr. W. E. Jackson, President of the
company. It will be recollected that
the stockholders, at a late meeting, au
thorized the issuance of $300,000 worth
of bonds, bearing 8 per cent, interest, for
the purpose of establishing a commer

A Medical Conundrum.
[Communicated.]
Mr. Editor I’m a poor man. Like
all poor men, I have a heap of child
ren ; and children will get sick. I don’t
like sickness, medicine or doctors. A
few nights ago I had a sick child, and
went to a drug store for some medi
cine, asking the druggist the dose. He
told me he could not give me the dose,
because he had entered into an ar
rangement with the physicians which
precluded him from prescribing, &c.
Mr. Editor, is this right ? Am I to go
to a doctor every time I want to take a
dose of medicine, and pay him from
two to ten dollars to tell me how to
take it ? Mechanic.

We Don’t Care. —Some dealers say:
Yes, we know that Dr. Price’s Flavor
ing Extracts and Cream Baking Pow
der are the best, but we don’t care if
others are made of saw-dust or arsenic
so long as they suit our customers and
afford us a better profit, we shall sell
them. The public should know these
things, and know too the reasons why
adulterated baking powders and flavor
ing extracts are recommended by such
dealers when Dr. Price’s are asked for.
It is because Dr. Price’s cost more, and
as tbey sell them at about the same
price as others, it does not give so good
a profit. We should look to the qual
ity of articles that enLT into our daily

The Key-Note of Health. —The
health and vigor of the several organs
of the body depend upon the simple
condition that the functions which per
tain to each shall be regularly and
actively performed. If vitality is slug
gish or deficient, this condition is not
properly fulfilled, and as a conse
quence disease is soon inaugurated.
Prevent it by a timely use of Hostet
tor’s Stomach Bitters, which rouse the
vital energies when dormant and en
dow the feeble frame with needful
stamina. At the same time that the
Bitters infuse new strength into the
system, they correct those functional
irregularities and local weaknesses
which sap the vital power. Dyspepsia,
bladder and kidney complaints, gout,
rheumatism, fever and ague, bilious

eases are invariably overcome by the
operation of this standard alterative

FINANCE AND TRADE.
WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE AU
GUSTA MARKETS.
Constitutionalist Office, I
6 o’clock P. M., August 6, 1875. S
There was some improvement this week
in the tone of trade, especially in meats and
grain, which experienced daily a very
good demand, while stocks are hot large.
Bagging and ties are looking up quite
briskly, the demand, having so far in
creased as to cause lots to be taken im
mediately from the manufacturers while
prices are somewhat higher than last week.
We have had some little rain in ttiis im
mediate section, but it has not caused any
favorable reports regarding the crops,which
are reported in a bad way along the line of
the Georgia Railroad 'J he Cotton market
has shown but little change from last week
in tone or price.
It is well for our readers to bear in mind
that we give wholesale quotations entirely.
Financial.
There has been no general demand this
week for Securities. We learn, however,
that Mr. W. E. Jackson has up to this time
disposed of SBO,OOO at par of the bonds
lately issued by the Augusta Factory
Company. Otherwise there has been little
disposition to invest in any kind of prop
erty. Gold and Silver are reported very
dull. Exchange on New York and other
cities is unchanged.
