CITY TOPICS. Let us have another boat race, by way of variety. Our Aiken, S. C., friends are to have a moonlight picnic next. By what method are divorces offsett? By the tie-back, of course. Next. The matrimonial market is dull and nominal. Supply and demand equal and neither buoyant. Mr. Schneider received a large turtle weighing 187 pounds from Florida yes terday. Steamer Bosa landed at the wharf, at the foot of the lower bridge, yester day morning. She leaves for Savan nah this a. m. The Medical College building is be ing benefitted with a brown colored coat of plaster, and will shortly present a handsome appearance. Borne wants to pay only fifty cents on the dollar on her bonds, and with refreshing coolness adds, “ that is bet ter than none,” and thinks the Augus ta bond-holders too clamorous. Oue hundred and seventy-one thou sand dollars worth of the Augusta Factory bonds have been sold at par, leaving a balance of 829,000 to be dis posed of. They are in demand. The average Augusta mosquito weighs less than a pouud. One man is the greatest abundance for supper for half a dozen of them. They are greedy, however. Tney make toothpicks with your boues, and if your hair is auburn, they weave it into the latest style of ladies’ silk clocks. The New York Herald says Booth has nearly recovered, and as it is not his sword arm th*it was injured, he will be himself again shortly and will be able to fulfill his Southeru tour engagement with manager Ford. So we will see Hamlet’s ghost yet. A couple of the members of the Bifle Club, of Team No. 3, made the bulls eye wink yesterday at a distance of 300 yarils. Any information concerning the whereabouts of the bullets tired from their guus at the distance of 500 yards at the target will be thankfully receiv ed, as they want the lead. The walls of the powder mill fail to record the whereabouts of the last. Our regular weekly market review and reports are very complete and con tain full and correct quotations. Trade was rather dull this week, but it is bound to brighten up in a few days. Cotton picking will be general by the 10th or 15th of September, when all branches of business and trade will be good. That ill feeling did exist between the Clinch Rifles and Company B is a fact that cannot be disputed, but such can not exist long between gentlemen, oc casioned by a little rivalry, and as a natural consequence the two companies are now very harmonious, and we hope will remain so. It is currently rumored that the spirit of Captain Burns has traversed the realms of space and flown (we hope) to a better world. That last Waynes boro affair, or negro insurrection was too much for him. He couldn’t stand the pressure. It is not recorded who his heir is. For the benefit of all concerned, we will state that the fighting editor so sojourns in Kamschatka. We will take great pleasure in forwarding all com munications intended for him, and we would add that no one around these quarters ever interferes with his busi ness. Merchants, look out for counterfeit bills of the denomination of 820 on the Merchants’ Bank of New York, sup posed to be in circulation in this sec tion of the country. The signatures of the Treasurer of the United States and of the Register of the Treasury are said to be genuine, but those of the bank officers are forgeries. The Her ald says they are iu circulation in At lanta. Escape of a Convict. Daniel Desmond, a convict who has been working at Hallahan’s, escaped yesterday, and he so far has failed to give his address, which the police are anxious to know. Desmond was sent up for twelve months at the last term of the Superior Court for shooting at a fellow citizen with barbarous intentions. He didn’t shoot with barbarous inten tions but with a pistol, the same being actuated by barbarous intentions This explanation is necessary, for smart Aleck” of blackberry fame.

Editor Constitutionalist : — A com munication appeared in this day’s Chronicle, and Sentinel, signed “Mer chant and Manufacturer,” requesting the attention of our City Fathers to the fact of the city ordinance affecting drummers. In repiy to “Merchant and Manufac turer,” I believe that any merchant has the right to demand of a drummer his license, if he suspects that he is selling without oue. It is not, however, to be expected that when merchants and pri vate citizens, after having paid all taxes, are expected to act as private detectives. In all cities wore any tax is imposed on travelling salesmen, it is the duty of the police to see that this part of the city ordinance is carried out, aud in Savannah, Charleston, Bichmond and other cities were this ordinance is en forced, a considerable increase to the city treasury has been made. Drummers among themselves laugh how they can come to Augusta, stay two and three days, sell, aud iu some cases it would be better to say peddle goods, and depart withont adding one cent to the treasury of the city, aud yet we are constantly hearing the cry from the Mayor down, “The city wants money.” Why then this supinenes3 on the part of our city officials ? Is there to be no protection for the taxpayer? Drummers are now on hand, and for the next three months their numbers will be legion. Let it no more be said they can come and go and be exempt from taxation. Merchant. Personal. We had the pleasure of a visit yes terday from Mr. George W. Norman, traveling agent and correspondent of the New Orleans Morning Star aud Catholic Messenger. Mr. Norman speaks to the public this morning through our advertising columns. He will call on our citizens in the interests of his pa per. He is a very agreeable gentleman and a good representative of his paper, which is a very tine one, edited by Father liyan. Maj. H. J. Jones, of the Macon Tele graph, passed through the city yester day en route home, looking as childlike and bland as though he had just step ped into life, and as hale aud hearty as ever. Where is the sentiment of the great moral engines now? The Cincinnati Enquirer says : “A refreshing revival season; three murderers amble airily away ou their auriculars and the St. Louis Republican endeavors to rebuke it by an allusion to “Mr. Gabriel’s un rivaled solo on the trombone.” Tal rnage and his deacons are sadly needed in the West.

It may well be doubted if there was ever a medicine iu substantiation of whose merits such a mass of unsolicited testimony has ac cumulated. An examination of this testimony establishes a fact of the last importance to the sick and debilitated, as well as those who are exposed to unfavorable influence of climate namely, that the Bitters are an un equalled tonic, and active an thorough specific for every disorder of the di gestive, biliary and execretory organs, a reliable means of regulating the dis charge of the most important func tioDs of the body, and a supreme pro tective against intermittent and remit tent fevers, and all other diseases to which malaria gives birth. aug2stuthsa&c Take Notice. —Strictly Pure White Lead, Linseed Oils, Turpentine.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE AU GUSTA MARKETS. Constitutionalist Office, [ 6 o’clock P. M., August 27, 1875. 1 Remarks. The general alarm all over the country in regard to the crops has had a very had effect on trade, which this week, was no better in general, and scarcely as good as that of last week. As the Financial Chronicle says financial stagnation is the most serious symptom of the existing ease of the money market. There is an abun dance of idle capital. The stagnation of the monetary situation is not caused by any lack of loanable funds. It takes its ori gin from the activity with which the pro duction powers of modern society operate to increase material wealth, but these very operative powers are what now so much tetod to maae the market stagnant. An abundance of idle capital, with a dull sea son and a general stampede among far mers, all create the plethora, not only in the money market but in all other markets. The avenues for the employment of capital have been closed or nearly so, for quite a while. How long this will continue with other causes mentioned it is impossible to foresee, not until the cotton season is fully opened, at least, will there be much of a change. The general uneasiness in regard to the crop is subsiding, and although undoubt edly the crop has been damaged, the yield will be a very fair one iu this section, and the damage need not in the least depress tile markets or render trade so stagnant, especially as there is an increase iu this section of 17 per cent, in the acreage of corn and 25 per cent, iu the acreage of other grain, while there is a decrease of 5 per cent, in the acreage of cotton This, of course, applies to counties having direct communication and trading with Augusta, in other parts of the State there is a very fair average crop. The flour market con tinues to bo firm, notwithstanding reports of large Western crops, probably owing to the fact of a heavy expoLting season being anticipated, and ttie high rates of freight on wheat from the West, which gives our home mills a good margin. The grain mar ket is firm, with a tendency to advance, .md corn is in fair demand, ihe prevailing opinion still seems to be that a good por tion of the crop has been destroyed, which is ready not the case. Generally speaking, corn is dull in all Western mar kets. The meat market remains the same as last week—firm, with a tendency to ad vance, and the demand is fair, while the supply is fully ample. There has been some ittle activity in the market this week, and quite a brisk trade was hone for two or three days, but the general tone is quiet. The provision market rules steady and quiet, with no changes, and, in accord with other markets, is stagnant. The dry goods market, of course, is dull, as is always the case between seasons. Merchants have not laid in the Fall stocks yet, with one or two exceptions, and there is a feeling of uneasiness in regard to trade. Some mer chants think there will be a brisk trade, while others think it will be comparatively light. Most of them •will lay in light stocks tor the present. Tone—very quiet and dull, with quotations about the same. Most of our merchants anticipate a light Fall trade, but we think a fine Fall busi ness may be expected, which wid give buoyancy not to one maiket or trade alone but’its results will be general, and will be lelt alike by the merchant, manufacturer, producer, the retail dealer, and the artisan. If our expectations prove true, of course a very healthy tone will be developed among £.ll classes, and the lethargy aud continued dullness of everything for the past few years will be replaced by a refreshing ac tivity in every line of business. Financial. This market has experienced the dullest week it lias had for a number of years. Nothing at all is doing with the exception of sales of the new bonds of Augusta Cot ton Factory. Total sold, $171,000 at par, leaving undisposed of $29,000, and these will probably be taken during the coming week. EXCHANGE. New York exchange scarce, buying at %a 3-16 premium, and selling at %.
