CITY TOPICS.
Thermometer 85 degrees yesterday
afternoon.
Light rain yesterday evening at
dark.
No eases of importance in the Record
er’s Court yesterday.
Our weekly review of the Augusta
markets will be found elsewhere.
The Count}' Board of Education
meets at the City Hall at 11 o’clock to
day.
The city chain gang was yesterday
engaged iu cleaning out the drains on
Greene street, between Washington and
Jackson streets.
The Church of The Atonement.
The Rector having returned, there
will be the usual services at the above
church on next Sunday.
Board of Education.
The regular meeting of the Board of
Education of Richmond county will be
held at the City Hall this morning. As
several members are absent, it is earn
estly desired that all now at home in
the county will be sure to attend the
meeting, so as to assure a quorum, oth
erwise the teachers may be put to con
siderable trouble by being compelled to
wait a month longer for their salaries.
Spring Chickens.
About the finest dish that we know
of for breakfast, at this season, is fried
chicken. It is one that will attract any
one; and our neighbor, Mr. W. H.
Reid, opposite the Constitutionalist
office, appreciating this fact, yesterday
furnished us with a fine specimen of
the fowls he is now offering at very low
prices, knowing we have a great taste
for them. The quotations published iu
our weekly review show the prices at
which he sells at wholesale rates.
The Courts.
In the County Court yesterday, be
fore Judge Snead, Charley Haynes, col
ored, was sent to the city chain gang
for using a portion of the clothing of a
gentleman to wear to a ball without
that gentleman’s consent. He will serve
six months in return for indulging in
that freak.
Fanny Thomas was arraigned upon
a charge of stealing a gown and was
ably defended. Quite a number of
wituesses were examined, and after a
trial occupying a number of hours dur
ing the day, she was acquitted and dis
charged. There were many colored
persons present at the trial, which was
held in the Superior Court room, and a
number of witnesses examined to prove
the previous good character of the
girt.
Serenade.
It is said “music hath charms,” and wo
are witness to the fact that the saying is
true, for the reason that we are often
blessed with serenades that soothe the
cares of life and cause us to more cheer
fully perform the duties devolving up
on us at night. The most pleasing part
of these serenades is that they come
when we need them most. These re
flections are induced by a splendid ser
enade we received last night from the
Amateur String Band, composed of
young men of this city, under the lead
ership of Mr. G. YV. Chapman. It is
composed of six pieces, and is well
practiced having been organized but
nine months. YVe hope to receive many
visits from the club in the future.
From the manner in which the mem
bers performed their respective parts,
we are convinced that they have worked
well and will henceforth obtain the lau
rels they so richly deserve.
Old Recollections.
Ms. Editor: How sad to part with
old and familiar things. You, together
with, many of our citizens, doubtless
remember the old song, the chorus of
which is as follows:
“Oh, laws a-massa, what a pain I’ve got,
Take me down to the doctor shop—
Give me something, I don’t care what,
To cure this awful pain I’ve got.”
But alas, the song will have to be
changed ! And in fact, I’m inclined to
think we will miss it altogether from
our streets, for the reason that the
physicians have assumed control of all
applications for medical advice, and
the druggists of necessity will be forced
to refer the victim of green water
melon first to the physicians, and be
fore the patient can go through this
formality die he must. Pity ’tis so, but
so it is. John Pill.

THE COMMISSIONERS.
Action of Judge Snead, of the County
Court, Regarding the Report of the
Commissioners.
At a session of the County Court,
Judge Claiborne Snead presiding, held
yesterday, the following order in re
sponse to the recommendation made in
the report of the commission to inves
tigate the treatment to which the coun
ty convicts were subjected by the par
ties having them in charge, was issued
to take effect at once:
Richmond County Court for County
purposes, August 13th, 1875 :
The Commissioners appointed to en
quire into the condition and manage
ment of the county convicts having
presented their report; it is ordered
that the same be entered on the min
utes of this court, and that the evi
dence accompanying said report be
filed in the clerk’s office. It is further
ordered that Joseph E. Burch, Com
missioner of the Poor of Richmond
county, in addition to his ordinary
and regular duties, shall inspect the
county convicts, see that the
conditions of the contract of the hirer
as to furnishing food, clothing, shelter
and necessary medical attention is
strictly complied with; and further that
the convicts are not subjected to any
unnecessary or cruel punishment, and
in all things they are treated with hu
manity. He shall report the result of
his investigations from time to time to
the Judge of this court.
And the said Joseph E. Burch, Com
missioner as aforesaid, shall be respect
ed and obeyed in the exercise of the
authority and in the discharge of the
duties hereby conferred.
Claiborne Snead,
County Judge.
“ He Just Wanted to See Him Once
More.”
fFor the Ccnstitutionalist.l
He came from one of the upper coun
ties, and this was the reason of his
being here. The old man had wagoned
his way to “Augusty for forty years,”
but he was growing old and infirm,
and he thought it was about time to
let his pet boy learn to take upon him
self the cares of the family. So he
gave him an order on his factor for a
wagon load of plantation supplies and
a draft for twenty dollars for his be
loved one to spend in aDy way that
pleased him best. The wagon had been
loaded and the young man had received
the money, and was now standing in that
classic region known as Schneider’s
corner. There he stood in all the pride
of his young manhood, his auburn locks
fanned by the gentle evening breezes,
as he reclined against the wall which
lias supported many a weak-kneed dis
ciple of Bacchus. His attention was
attracted by the work going on in Jack
son street," and, turning to inquire
concerning it, his eyes fell on
one of the accommodating gen
tlemen whom the city keeps
to furnish information for strangers.
Our friend from the country asked
“what’s that they’re doing thar?” The
city gent promptly responded, “we’ve
been laying some new pavements, and
the old briek being in the way, the
Mayor is having them buried out of
sight, so that they will not incommode
the travelling public, blocking up the
streets.”
“Well, I swan,” says the stalwart
yeoman, “that is a shame.” “Why, we
can’t get brick enough up with us to
build our chimneys, and the old man
wants a few now to build a chimney to
my room, for I,” (and here he blushed
vividly) “am going to get married this
Fall. I wonder if I can buy a few
cheap?” The gentleman of gratuitous
iuformation said he thought it highly
probable that he could if he would see
the Mayor, and, looking around, pointed
him out down near the Opera House,
having done which, he quietly recreated
into the store to see how the matter
would end. Our country friend ap
proached His Honoi and stated his
busiuess, at the same time repeating
the information our city friend had
given him.
His Honor saw through the joke and
politely informed him that he had been
sold, and that the men were laying a
large sewer to drain the vicinity of that
corner. The look on the yeoman’s face
was dreadful to contemplate. He
turned abruptly and made for the
corner, inquiring of every one ho saw
for the “kind” friend who had furnished
him the information, saying, between
his closed teeth, “I only want to see
him once more, and if his best friend
knows him when I get through with
him, then I don’t want a cent.”
He is gone home now, but we advise
the “information gent” to keep a sharp
lookout this Fall, for if the yeoman
meets him when he brings in his cotton
we will not be responsible for the con
sequences.

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.

A Triumph over Humbug. —The con-

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 in 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 in the
present instance. aul2-thsatu&c

FINANCE AND TRADE.
WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE AU
GUSTA MARKETS.
Constitutionalist Office, I
6 o’clock P. M., August, 13 1875. J
Remarks.
The general aspect of trade for the week
closing to-day, has not been very cheering
as compared with last week, quietness
reigning throughout—though prices of all
leading articles of Produce were firm with
demand fair. Comparison with the same
season last year shows a falling off in the
amount of Bacon and other ‘-taple articles
sold to planters or farmers, but this is at
tributed to economy on their part rather
than to the fact that they are produced at
home. The supply now here is equal to
the demand. The stock of Western Flour,
however, is light, the prices of City Mills
for sometime being low, thus render
ing it uncertain as to any advant
age being obtained in laying West
ern down here. Wheat has also ruled
lower than in Western markets, but our
prices for both articles are now approxi
mating those of the West, an advancing
tendency ruling this week. In finances
nothing of importance occurred excep the
continued sa?e of the New Augusta Factory
bonds menti ined below.
The weather has shown a decided change
—showers falling almost every day in this
neighborhood—at times being very heavy—
ana we are now experiencing almost the
opposite extreme from the drought pre
vailing a few weeks since. The tempera
ture is also lower and we are having cool
nights with line breezes on many days.
Financial,
The word most applicable to the situa
tion this week in finances—is quiet—with
out any qualification. The only transac
tions of importance reported to us as oc
curring daring the week are the sales of
ab >ut $50,000 woitii of the New Augusta
Factory Bonds at par—making a total so
far of sl3o,ooo—all at par.
But few changes in quotations of securi
ties. Georgia 7s. Smith’s issue, are ad
vanced to 100. and 0., C. and A. R. R., first

Too Much Cot hi Again.
We are now daily pubi filing the returns
made to the tax receivei of Georgia of the
number of acres of lane planted in cotton,
corn, etc., in tne severa counties. We re
gret to see that these * Turns do not sus
tain the statements mac r { in the Spring to
the effeet that a much la ifeer area had been
planted in corn and a s 4ftller area in cot
ton. So far the retur :fe from the most
important counties <I? not _ seem to
show much change frc*|a previous years.
There is still generally I at little difference
between the areas in coi J and in cotton, in
some counties one and In some the other
preponderating. It is p Tin that the Gran
gers have not yet acc.o plisheJ a reform
greatly needed, and to \ lich their organi
zation has no doubt coni huted. It is a hard
matter to turn a people Tom their settled
customs, even when i ]ie advantage of a
change can be shown t<K a demonstration.
It is doubtful whether &ven, the best of
seasons would have ghlfli us <a plenty .of
corn in Southern and Middle Georgia, and
it is almost certain the* under the disad
vantages of such a seas|n as we have ex
perienced, corn must a£:ain be scarce and
high, while cotton maj; be lower than it
has been for years. Till is a sad and la
mentable state of affaj s, but the truth
cannot be concealed.— Ut umbus Enquirer.
