CITY TOPICS.
Another scarcity of local items yes
terday.
The river measured 6 feet 2 inches
at the bridge yesterday.
Thermometer at the signal office yes
terday afternoon, 77 degrees.
Light rain about noon yesterday with
cool and pleasant weather throughout
• the day.
The police office was very quiet yes
terday and Recorder Sheron had little
or nothing to do.
A number of side drains have been
constructed to connect with the new
Jackson street sewer.
The instruments for the Schuetzen
Musical Corps, seventeen in number,
arrived day before yesterday.
We are informed that there is plenty
of money in the banks, in fact, more
than they want, subject to demand
when good security is offered.
Our efficient Tax Collector, John A.
Bohler, Esq., has received orders from
the Comptroller General of the State
ordering him to proceed to collect the
State taxes at once.
The Augusta Exchange yesterday
received a notice that the New York
Cotton Exchange will be closed until 11
o’clock, this morning, in respect to the
memory of a deceased member, John
Fox, Esq.
From a prominent merchant of Au
gusta who has lately made a tour of
the lower counties of Georgia and a
part of South Carolina we learn that
the crops in that section are nearly
ruined by the drought, and that the
late rains have done them but little
good.
Personal.
Mr. J. W. Taliaferro, who went to
Portsmouth with the Third Georgia re
unionists, is now in New York viewing
the sights of Broadway. Upon his re
turn home he will have a fine story to
tell about the Empire City.
Returned.
The Georgia Infantry (colored), which
went to Columbia to participate in the
parade of the colored military com
panies of that city, returned home yes- j
terday morning about six o’clock. They ;
speak in high terms of the treatment |
received by them at the hands of the
citizens, both white and colored, of the
capital of the Old Palmetto State.—
They say long may it wave.
Almost a Fire.
Yesterday evening about 6 o’clock
smoke was discovered issuing from the
roof of the kitchen on the premises of
Mr. W. H. Goodrich. The cry of fire was
raised by several small boys, when
some of the employees at Mr. Good
rich’s shop rushed out with a Babcock
fire extinguisher and succeeded in con
quering the flames without the assist
ance of the Fire Department. Vigilant
No. 3 was on hand promptly, but their
services were not needed. No general
alarm was given.
Camp Meeting.
We understand that a very large
number of persons will go to camp
meeting at the Methodist Richmond
Camp Ground, situated about sevqn
miles from Augusta, next Sunday. A
very large number of horses aud ve
hicles have been already engaged to
carry visitors to the grounds on that
day.
Messrs. Heggie Bros, will provide a
fine spring wagon and splendid team of
four horses, by which they cau convey
fourteen persons to the camp ground
at $1.50 each, going and returning.
The wagon will be ready to start at 8
o’clock Sunday morning, and return to
the city immediately after the after
noon service.
Salutes.
Federal and national salutes were
fired at the Augusta Arsenal yesterday
in respect to the memory of ex-Presi
dent Andrew Johnson—l3 guns at sun
rise and a national salute of 37 guns at
sunset. It is customary to thus honor
the memory of high officials of the
United States Government upon their
pppaaQ
There was considerable surprise ex
pressed yesterday by parties hearing
Salutes who did not know the ob
ject of the flrffig.
Wesley Monumental Cliurch.
The Savannah News furnishes the
following description of the Wesley
Monumental Church, now in course of
construction in that city : “The front
will be 70 feet, depth 127; the turret on
the southeast corner 135 feet high, to
be lighted by five windows 3x16 feet of
stained glass, a rose window five feet
in diameter will add to its ornamenta
tion. The tower will be 186 feet high,
of which 88 feet will be brick, 86 feet
wood, and 12 (the steeple) of galvanized
iron. There will be large windows in
the tower and three rose windows. The
front will be 82 feet from the ground,
and will be covered with slate, and will
be thoroughly lighted. The entrance
will be through double doors, six feet
wide and twelve feet high, at an eleva
tion of four steps from the pavement
to a gothic porch. The basement will
be 86x56 feet 4 inches, and 13 feet high.
The upper floors, or church proper,
will be graced with galleries running the
entire length of the sides. The galle
ries are supported upon five iron col
umns each, which will rest upon the
same number of columns in the base
ment. In the body of the Church there
are to be six isles, and 164 pews. There
a”e to be five entrances to the building
ard five stairways. Iu the construc
tion of the building it is estimated over
600.000 brick will be used.
The Third Georgia.
Col. Claiborne Snead has returned
from the Third Georgia reunion, look
ing very much as if ho had been living
on the fat of the land of Virginia du
ring the past week. The Third Geor
gia, or rather its remnants left from
hard fighting in the Old Dominion, has
made a name for itself, and fully
pro /ed the assertion that Virginia hos
pita'ity is the best in the world, by
holding their annual reunion iu this
“Mother of States.”
Tlie Commissioners.
The Commissioners will meet at the
City Hall this morning at 11 o’clock
for the purpose of considering and per
fecting their report regarding the treat
ment of the county convicts at Halla
han’s brick yard. The report will be
presented to Judge Claiborne Snead, of
the Couuty Court, for action. The evi
dence taken covers fully ninety pages
of legal cap paper. The report of the
Commissioners will consume about 12
pages. _
Accident.
Mr. W. A. Tanner, foreman of the
Georgia Railroad tin shop, had the
fingers of his right hand badly crushed
last Monday while grinding a scraper
on the grind stone in the machine shop
of the road. Many days must pass be
fore Mr. Tanner recovers the use of his
hand. He will, however, in the mean
time, superintend the work in his shop.
Augusta Excliauge.
The rooms of the Augusta Exchange
are kept iu the best order by Mr. H. B.
Campbell, the deputy clerk acting in
the absence of Mr. C. F. Wilmans. The
papers and reports received are put in
their places with a regularity that is
worthy of the praise that has been be
stowed upon Mr. Campbell.
•
That Presbyterian Calf.
Mr. Editor: My attention has just
been called to a paragraph in Sunday’s
issue of your paper, under the head of
“City Topics,” in which the very im
portant announcement is made that
“the beautiful grounds surrounding the
Presbyterian Church iu Augusta are
not used as a calf pasture now.”
Iu the Chronicle and Sentinel of the
same date the/e appeared a communi
cation upon the same subject, aud of
similar purport.
The coiucidence is somewhat remark
able, and, when taken in connection
with the fact that this is not the first
time this matter has been noticed iu
both of our city papers simultaneously,
it is almost startling. If the party who
writes, and who suggests these kind
criticisms, has “no sinister purpose ,” the
Presbyterian Church and her Trustees
(though they may erroneously think
themselves capable of managing their
own affairs) have reason to be grateful
for the interest manifested in their
property. But if the motive of this
critic is”deeper than appears upon the
surface—in other words, if ho wishes
to attack any one, it is suggested that
a more manly course might be adopted.
Respectfully,
YVm. C. Sibley,
Chairman Trustees First Presbyterian
Church, Augusta.
Augusta, August 11,1875.
The Green Line Monster.
Mr. Editor: Why should the Geor
gia Railroad and Western and Atlautic
Railroad be controlled by the Nashville
and Chattanooga Railroad? (or what
is called the Green Line.) The Western
and Atlantic and Georgia Railroads
charge only 27 cents for grain off of
the Nashville and Chattanooga Rail
road, and 33 cents for grain off of the
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
Railroad. Merchant.

A Triumph over Humbug. —The con
[ stant gain in popularity of the national
remedy and preventive, Hostetter’s
Stomach Bitters, and the rapid decline
of the fermented and nauseous rubbish
feebly bolstered up by a false tem
perance cry, exemplifies a grand
triumph of genuine merit over rampant
humbug, at which honest folks rejoice.
And well they may; for each accession
of popularity to a remedy which cures
and prevents intermittent and remit
tent fevers, dyspepsia, constipation,
liver complaint, urinary troubles,
uterine weakness and general debility,
widens the field of its beneficent opera
tions and is a direct gain to humanity,
while every falling off iu public favor
of a pernicious compound, powerless
for good but powerful for evil, is a bles
sing quite as unmistakable, but for a
reason very different. Let humbug for
once hide its diminished head. Would
it were always as unsuccessful as iu the
present instance. au!2-thsatu&c
Full Measure. —While Dr. Price’s
True Flavoring Extracts are full meas
ure, other extracts are short nearly
one-half what they are said to contain,
arranged to look large to deceive the
consumer. The most of the so-called
two ounce flavoring extracts hold but
one and one-quarter ounces, the four
ounce less than three ounces, while Dr.
Price’s are full measure just as repre
sented, strong and pure. One trial will
prove that the bottles hold one-half
more than others purporting to be the
same size, and the extracts are of the
strongest and most natural flavor.

Ague Conquerer —No Quinine, no

Fever and Ague without the use of
strong medicines such as Quinine. Ar
senic aud other poisons injurious to
the system. There is no case of Fever

will not cure at once and permanently.
It purifies the Blood, Liver, Spleens,

Good, effective remedies prove them
selves. If a certain preparation is
offered as a sure remedy for rheuma
tism and a dozen or hundred trials are
made without avail, of course our faith
recoils from the so-called remedy. If a
person, suffering from rheumatism, is
advised to try the celebrated Home
>mach Bitters for a cure he may be
skeptical at first, but as sure as he
gives them a fair trial his skepticism
■ vanishes. This preparation proves its
own claims. augß-suwe&c

Attached, and owing to recent improvements in this Evener, the laps when ready for
the card, only vary one-quarter of an ounce to the yard. The cost of picking by thin

safer from lire than the card room.
