YEN NOR'S VIEWS FOR APRIL.
THE POLITICAL CANVASS.
We have waited to the last moment
that we might be able to give our read
ers the latest from the primaries, but
are disappointed in being able to give
anything posiiive or definite. Boynton,
however, evidently has a majority of
instructed delegates oyer Bacon,but not
of the whole convention. Boynton’s
most favorable chance, therefore, to get
the nomination will be on the first bal
lot, which cannot be accomplished if the
two-thirds rule should be adopted.—
The chances are very favorable for a
lock ip the convention, which will al
most certainly defeat both Boynton aDd
Bacon, and result in the nomination of
a new candidate altogether.

— A colored preacher held forth in
town a few Sundays since, in a sermon
in which he aired his knowledge of ap
cion t, geography tq a considerable ex
tent. He said that'Ghrist was born on
the island of Parish, in the Red Sea, —
This new version completely rubs out
the s:ory of Bethlehem and the manger.
—On the 29th ult., the happy
marriage of Mr. John B. Carter, Jr., of
Augusta, and Miss FJewellyu Battle, of
Warrenton. was celebrated in the latter
place. The young people left immedi
ately on a bridal tour to Florida. The
Citizen joins other friends in wishing
the young people a long, a useful and a
happy life.
—The Estey Organ Company has just
received a number of beautiful, sweet-
toned pianos and organs, which they
are offering to the musical public on
the most liberal terms. Remember,
that there is no article of musical mer
chandise which you cannot get, of the
best quality and at the lowest price —
Address C. H. Taylor, agent, 621
Broad street, Augusta, Ga.
—Henry Jonas has moved his barber
shop into Gray’s new building, where he
is'fixed up in the neatest style, and is
now convenient to the s'reet. Henry
is a tonsorial professor, and sends his
customers away fixed up in the latest'
styles of 1 he art,. Henry will also run
a nice bath room in connection wrh his
barOer shop, and will shortly be pre
pared to give you a hot or cold b^tfk.
— To-day we present to our readers
tho advertisement of George A. Bai ie.
742 Broad street, Masonic Building,
Augusta, Oa. Mr. Bailie is closing out
his large stock of beautiful eurtanis,
carpets, mattings, etc,, to make room
for his spring goods, and is offering ex
tra inducements to customers. You
should take advantage of such chances
as this, aud order what you need and
save money. Now is vour time, so
don’t delay to go or send an order at

—There ; s another Richmond in the
field. This week Dr Duncan steps to
the front with an advertisement in which
he announces the opening of his drug
store, in which he has a fine stock of
select medicines, and which he offers to
the public at Augusta and Savannah
retail prices. Prescriptions will be
carefully compounded, and all mistakes
guarded against with a wa'ohful eye.—
The doctor solicits a liberal share of
the publio patronage, and guarantees
satisfaction wherever reason and eare
can give it. Read his advertisement,
and give the doctor a trial.
Yennor forecasts the character of the
weather for April as follows : April
enters on Sunday with a March storm,
and the same day of the week is likely
to oontinue stormy through the month.
The 5th and 6th will likely prove
stormy in the/lake regions and lower
provinces, /Newfoundland, probably,
coming in mt. heavy gales. The 10th
and 12th m-e probably dates of severe
frosts. /These were experienced in
1882. ffhe 20th ami 21st stormy and
wet in/a majority of sections. The
month will end cold and stormy, and
May day may be ushered in with snow
and sleet in Northern and Western
sections, and cold rains at others.—
There will probably be some unusual
terms of warmlh during the month ; but
altogether it will partake of its average
character, and be of a favorable de
scription.

storeroom in the- near future. The
house will be two stories, the lower
story will be used as A store by Mr. Mo.
and will be divided into departments
for dry goods, groceries, etc. , The up
per story will be \sed for offioes for
professional gentlemen and rooms for
young men. Such a building will add
much to the appearance ot our town,
add we shall be glad to sec the founda
tion laid. The building of one or two
other handsome briok stores, we under
stand, are contemplated.
nowjHjaxdHTgl^iise
has been opened in lown by one of our
most responsible oitizens, M. B. Gray,
who offers to furnish as good board as
can be had in the place for less monev
than any other boarding house. Try
him and you will certainly be plo&sed.
—When in Augusta this week, we
had the good fortune to fall into the
hands of mine host, L. B. Lewis, pro
prietor of the Augusta Hotel, who has
the faculty of making his guests feel
perfectly at home. Mr. Lewis is ‘ - a
born hotel keener,” and by his atten
tion to the wants of his guests is fast
becoming the most popular hotel man
in the city. The clerks, Mr George
W. Evans and Mr. Wynne are two as
polite gentlemen as can be found in the
nation, who are evei on the alert to
see that the guests of the house lack
nothing. The table is supplied with
everything the market and, the season
afford. The diningroom servants are
the most polite and prompt we ever
saw in any hotel. When you are
seated at the table your orders are ta
ken and instantly filled, and you are
not compelled to wait for your meals.—
Bob Turner, the head waiter, seems to
see everybody in the room at once. We
have said nothing but facts of the
Augusta Hotel, and when you visit the
city try it.
-^rtVrHfools-day was taken advantV

of the beaux received the tiniest,
sweetest looking little notes imagin

when the contents proved to be noth.-

young gentleman,VGteen’s Cut, paid
a quarter of a (lohar^ach for a couple
of express packages'of sawdust, ani
declares he will g?t ev$n if he lives to
see another first day of April. Our
young typo friend, R. L. H., received
the following lines, which if not very
pretty are rather suggestive :

—Mr. A. H. Miller is again in
charge of the Singer Sewing Machine
Company’s offioe in this place and
under the energetie supervision of Mr.
Miller the sales of this celebrated m&
chine is rapidly increasing—he having
sold six in one week in this oounty.
The Singer is simple in its construction,
runs lightly, and is a general favorite
with the ladies, and it seems ultimately
destined to drive every other make of
sewing machine out of tbe market.—
This together with the amount of busi
ness transacted by the company at
this place, renders Waynesboro an im
portant suburban offioe to the oompany,
requiring tbe serviees of an agent with
energy, capaoity and business tact, all
of which, in onr judgment they have
found in Mr. Miller. •
