Day of Fasting and Pbayer.—ln anticipa
tion /if the advent of that dreadful scourge, the
cholera, President Johnson has recommended i
the 17th day of May as an appropriate day for
the observance of a special fast. Several of the 1
Governors of tlie Southern States have moved i
in accordance witti this recommendation. We
trust that Governor Jenkins will issue a suita
ble proclamation for Georgia, in unison with
tlie chief magistrates of other States. i
Georgia Ice House. —That clever and effi
cient officer ot the Georgia Fire Company, Mr.
Charlie Dodd, lately an attache of the South
ern Express, has opened a cooling institution
on Ellis street, opposite Concert Hall, in which
( he is associated with Mr. Boyec, under the
name of Boyce A Dodd, and has christened his
refrigerator the Georgia Ice House, in compli
ment we presume to the Georgia Fire Com
pany v They have ice for the million.

New Goons.—Mr. A. ITontaut, the veteran
jeweler, next door lo the Augusta Hotel, has
returned home with a stock of new goods,
which he is now offering to the public on rea
sonable terms.
The Valparaiso Outrage. —We are glad to
see, says the N. Y. News, that most of our eo
temporaries have a word of execrqtioa for the
barbarous act ot the Spanish Admiral Nunez in
bombarding Valparaiso. The World, especially,
speaks most forcibly upon the subject. It would
have been more seemly, however, had these
papers expressed a like horror for the barbari
ties practiced during the late war upon helpless
Southern cities, which at least possessed the
"claim upon them of being inhabited by citizens
ot the same race. Sympathy for Chili is all very
well; but sympathy, like charity, should begin
at home.
Remains of Capt. Thor. H. Clay—lt will
Pbe seen by our special dispatch, says the Louis
! ville Courier, from Atlanta that the remains of
! Capt. Thos. H. Olay, who was on Gen. Buck
' uer's staff, have been disinterred and are on
their way to Kentucky to be placed by the side
of those of his father, iu the State Cemetery.
No truer gentleman or more gallant soldier
than Capt. Clay gave his life for the “ lost
cause.”
Starting Newspapers. —At a dinner party
in New York, on Tuesday night, Mr. Greeley
stated that since the commencement of the Tri
bune in 1841, something like five hundred daily
iiewspapc# have been started in the city of
New York, of which not more than five survive.
Sic Semper. —A Portland steamer was found
to be going astray, on a recent trip from Bos
ton, owing to deviations of her compass. The
deviation, it was found, was caused by thu steel
hoop-skirt of a young lady who was in the pi
lot house, and on her retiring the' compass re
sumed its proper position.
For a man or woman to plead head, or tooth i
or uide ache, for neglecting duty on the Sab- I
hath, when they are running; all about in the
mud and rain, on Monday and Saturday, is the
highest degree of holy swindling!
Said a crazy woman, of a penurious, stingy
man, an officer of the church, wo regret to say,
“ I)o you see that man f You could blow his
soul through a humming bird’s quill into a
mosquito’s eye, and the mosquito wouldn’t ,
■wink!”
Mui.tijm in Pakvo.— Here is the pithiest ser
mon ever, preached: “ Our ingress in life is
naked and bare; our progress through life is
trouble and care; our egress out of it we know
not where; but, doing well here, we shall do
well there.”

Death or Dk. E. D. Fenner.— We were
pained to learn hist evening of the death of Dr.
Erasmus D. Fenner, one of our oldest and most
estimable citizens and a distinguished light in
his profession. He died of typhoid fever after
a very protracted illness.— N. O. Bulletin.
D. C. Ballard, of Mobile, has reached the
penitentiary in Nashville, under sentence of
eight years’ imprisonment, by a military com
mission, for stealing Government cotton.
Major Ilainhrick, who is playing so high a
game at Alexandria, was a Virginia tailor, who
went North, and was bit by a mad-dog. He
has a brother who fought gallantly for the Con
federacy.
A heathen tciuple has been purchased at
Pekin, China, the idojs removed, and amission
ery hospital commenced.
President Lincoln died on the fourth anni
versary of the day on which he issued his proc
lamation calling for 75,000 volunteers—-April
16, 1801.
■ Lucky Man.—General Grant was presented
with se?en hundred and eighty boxes of cigars
in one day.
“OUT of Bouts” expresses the feelings of
many that cannot be otherwise described. Lan
guor, weakness, enervation, listlftssuess, sleepy
ness, melancholy, want of appetite Ac., compose
a class of ailments greater than all others com
bined. It is exactly for these indescribable
complaints that Plantation Bitters are prepared,
it Is for the relief of these same complaints they
have become so famous. Hence it is that they
are so extensively used by clergymen, mer
chants, ladies, and persons of sedentary habits.
They are as pleasant to the taste as they are
beneficial to the, stomach. The* extent of their
sale is almost incredible.

Enekything in Season. — That grey hairs
are honorable in old age is a proverbial matter ;
but are they so in youth ? Mrs. 8. A. Allan’s
World’s Hair Restorer and Zylobalsamum, or
Hair Dressing, are suited to both young and
old; they restore grey hair to its youthful
color, giving the roots the natural nourishment.
They renew, preserve and increase the growth.
Every Druggist sells them. ts
The Confederate Dead at Gettysburg.
- ~ Ma J° r H. M. Mi Her, of North Carolina, chief
Waybill Clerk of the Southern Express Com
- pany, returned from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania,
on Thursday, bringing with him the remains of
o olonel H - K. Burgwin, of the Twenty-sixth
North Carolina regiment, who fell at the head
of his column, half way up the heights, in that
awful contest of July, 1863. Major Miller had
no difficulty in finding the burial spot, having
been one of the number who interred the body.
The graves of hundreds of Confederate dead
who fell, and constitute the heights of Gettys
burg, the Golgotha, of the war, had been plough
ed over, and tlie headboafds scattered around,
hut the grave of Colonel Burgwyn had been
sacredly protected by the gentleman on whose
grounds he was buried. The coffin, upon open
t ing, was found to he full of water. The sea
- tures of the dead were as distinct in outline as
t the day upon which hi died, but the flesh fell
from the boue at the slightest touch, and the
remains had to be transferred piecemeal to tlie
coffin prepared to receive them.
Major Miller speaks in the most compliment
ary terms of the treatment lie received at the
hnads of the citizens of Gettysburg and vicinity.
| I llc was entertaied at the private residence of
Jesse Walters, Esq., and was not permitted to
pay for any item of expense that his visit in
, burred. He found tlie citizens out-and-out
Johnson men, Rnd they spoke confidently of
the ultimate triumph of his policy over Radical
men and measures.
The Southern Express Company, with the
liberality that is characteristic of its officers,
. uot only gave Major Miller a furlough from his
duties to enable him to fulfill his mournful
mission, but awarded tlie corpse free transpor
tation to North Carolina, and all expenses paid
by them.— Richmond Examiner.
Jefferson Davis. —There is one man, says i
the Richmond Examiner , who is not dead,
though he is entombed. He is buried alive in (
Fortress Monroe, and there he will soon die, t
unless heaven interposes and releases him. He ,
is reserved for the last and crowning vengeance 1
of liate. Upon his devoted head is to fall all
the wrath that the whole South evoked. He is
to he the propitiation for onr sins. We know
that every Southern man of the right jjeart i
would rather suffer in his own person than that 1
a hair of Jefferson Davis’ head should be hurt. *
Every one feels tlie cruel injustice of holding the ‘
Confederate President to account when all
others equally committed to secession have ,
been freed and pardoned or paroled. The fol- j
lowing brief note will elicit, we doubt not, a 1
proper response from those holy men whom it 1
chiefly concerns, and we take the liberty ol sug- 1
gesting the 10th of May, memorable by the
death of Jackson, consecrated to services for ,
Southern slain, as a fit occasion to appeal to ,
heaven in prayer for him wholingersin gloomy 1
confinement at Fortress Monroe: . f
Mr. Pollard :
Dear Sir: In our extremity of need let us '
draw near unto God. 1
Please request some of the clergy in your i
city to name a day on which we, the people of
the South, shall offer up prayer and supplica- ]
tion to God in behalf of our former President, J
Jefferson Davis. Respectfully, '
A Southern Woman.
May 1, 1866. ‘
In a Nutshell.— The New York Times, r
whoso tone grows more and more decided, un
der the head of “The Way the People Under
stand it,” thus expresses itself: “ The South
ern States claimed, and tlie North denied, the
right to secede from the Union. Both believed f
they were right, and appealed to the arbitra- I
ment of war. The North conquered. Tlie 5
South accepted the result. Why, then, do we
maintain that States which we said could not '
get out of the Union are out of it t"
The Milwaukee Netos is equally pithy. It c
says that tlie Central Directory cares nothing
now for measures calculated lo benefit the <
country, or lighten tlie burdens of the people. 11
The one great thought, above all others, is how 1
they shall perpetuate their power and benefit
themselves. The busines to be done now is to
arrange plans for carrying the next Congress
and the next President. The programme
which has been laid down by the Central
Directory, and which they will call upon the 1
people to endorse, is stated to be as follows :
I. To exclude tlie Southern States from rep
resentation till after the Presidential campaign.
11. To exclude the entire Southern vote for
President and Vice President, upon the prece
dent established by Congress in the last elec
tion.
HI. It'the Southern and Northern Democrat
ic vote together should elect a President, to be
prepared to resist that election by a new rebel
lion.
IV. To nominate none but thoroughly Radi- 1
cal candidates ; to avoid all doubtful men, and
especially men ol' “ Democratic antecedents,”
and to go before the country on negro suffrage, S
negro superiority, Southern territorializatiou
and Radical centralization.
The Return of Mb. George. Peabody.—
The arrival of Mr. George Peabody to this coun
try on hoard the steamer Scotia is announced.
Mr. Peabody a short time since, it will be re
membered, made a donation of $2,250,000 to the
poor of London, which munificent gift received
the special acknowledgement of Queen Victoria.
On reaching New York he repaired to the Bre
voort House, where he remained till the fol
lowing day, and then departed lor his native
town, Danvers, Massachusetts. Mr. Peabody
is over seventy years of age. He commenced
business in Georgetown, D. 0., in 181”. In 1815
the house was removed to Baltimore, and in
1837 Mr. Peabody made his permanent resi
dence in England. Among his noted gifts was
a check for 820,000, given in 1852, to l>e ex
pended in tile founding of a town library, and
instituted in Danvers. The gift, was subsequent
ly increased to SOO,OOO. in 1857 he gave $300,-
000 to tound a scientific and literary institute at
Baltimore, with a pledge to increase the sum to
§500,000. —Richmond Whir/. <
A Genuine Case of Cholera in New
York.— There is talk of a case of genuine 1
cholera right in the city of New York. The
victim was a woman, Mrs. Jenkins by name,
and the place Ninety-third street, near Third
avenue. The death occurred Wednesday night,
and as the symptoms arc said to have been well
marked, the people in the neighborhood feel
rather uncomfortable. The police emptied six
barrels of disinfectants 011 the premises while*
the post-mortem examination was going on.
Gen. Frank Blair. —The reason why Gen.
Frank Blair was rejected by the Senate as Col
lector of Internal Revenue for the Dist rict of
St. Louis, has not transpired. Much surprise is
expressed at the result, among others by Lieut.
Gen. Grant, who says that to him the country is
indebted more than to any other man that Mis
souri was prevented froth seceding. He spoke
with earnestness of the important military ser
vices Gen. (then Col.) Blair at that time and has
since tendered the country.— N. Y.. Times.
The Chick am aug a.— The steamer Chieka
mauga, formerly the blockade runner Edith,
which was sunk iu Cape Fear river by the Con
federates.during tlie attack on Fort Fisher, lias
been raised, and has arrived at Norfolk. She is
a double-screw iron propeller. A 12-pounder
Parrott gnu is still on boaid. Her speed from
1 Wilmiugton to Norfolk averaged seven knots
> with only one engine.

Arrival of the Queen—All Healthy.—
f The. British steamer, “The Queen,” arrived at
- New York on Wednesday, from Liverpool via
- Queenstown, with twelve hundred and eight
' steerage passengers, the heaviest load of liu
- inanity that lias entered the port this season,
t The captain reports a clean bill of health ; had
• no sigkness whatsoever during the voyage.
1■ ' ■
r Promoted.— We learn tiiat General James 11.
Lane, of Nortli Carolina, tiaa been tendered the
position of Professor of Mathematics and Su
, perintendent of thu Nortli Carolina College at
r Mount Pleasant. The General is now teaching
at Concord.
Strong-Headed VVowan.— Miss Fanny M
’ Dayton, in whose head William H. Russ put
’> three balls last December, in Brooklyn, in a fit
E of madness produced by love, has entirely re
-1 covered. However, hard-hearded girls are not
an uncommon thing.
The old Capitol building aijd grounds at
Washington were put up at auction recently.
The only offer made was $6,000, and as- the
s limit was $24,000, the property was withdrawn.

COTTON.—Since our last weekly report advices of
li d. to Id. advance in the Liverpool market have been
received, which have given more stability to bur mar
ket. During Monday there was what-may he called a
lair demand, at. prices ranging from 26c. to 29c. for
Middling to Good Middling, closing unsettled and ex
cited, in consequence of an advance in foreign markets.
This morning thejnquiry was less, the market for the
week, however, closing at an advance of two cents per
pound on ail grades. The late news from England
has intimidated buyers, leaving lint a Aioderate de
mand at the advancing prices, while holders are firm
in consequence of the improved condition of Northern
and Liverpool markets. Reports of the prospective
crop are unfavorable, and should such rumors proveto
be correct, the old crop must necessarily rise ih the
market, and closely approximate its former high price.
Hence, the tenacity of holders, and their reluctance to
sell at present low prices.
GENERAL MARKET.—Some few articles have
declined, while others have advanced, but tlie great i
bulk of goods remain unchanged from last week’s
review. ,
DRY GOODS —Have declined about 5 per cent, in
Northern markets, hut this decline lias not affected
the local market as yet.
DOMESTICS.—Augusta Factory goods have de
clined. We quote %at yard, 4-4 at 20c. %■'
yard, and drills at 22c.—a falling oft' of one. cent ail
round since last week.
FLOUR.—Augusta Granite Mill flour of difforent
brand* is sold as follows: Extra family, SIS ; family,
sl6; extra superfine, sl3 50, and superfine sl2. North
ern flour of inferior quality is sold at lower rates.
tilt AIN AND FORAGE. -There is a rikkl demand
for white and yellow com at an advance of three •or
four cents. White is readily sold at $1 00 %3 bushel, i
and yellow at $1 45.

inand. Hhoulders readily command 10c. iter pound ;

on the market of all descriptions.

*******
[ From the Rev. W. D. Seigfried, Pastor of Twelfth
Baptist Church, Philadelphia.]
Gentlemen : I have recently been laboring under the
distressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a
S rostration of the nervous system. Numerous reine
ies were recommended by friends, and some of them
tested, hut without relief. Your Hoofland’s German
Bitters were recommended by persons who had tried
them, and whose favorable mention of these Bitters
induced me to try them. I must confess that I lmd an
aversionito Patent Medicines from the “thousand and
one” quack “ Bitters,” whose only aim seems to be to
palm oil'sweeten and drugged liquor upon the commu
nity in a sly way, and the tendency of which, I fear, is
to make many a confirmed drunkard. Upon learning
that yours was really a medicinal preparation, I took
it with happy effect. Its action, not only upon the
stomacl , but upon the nervous system, was prompt
and gratifying. I feel that I have derived great and
permanent benefit from the use of a few buttles.
Very respectfully, yours,

[From the Rev. E. D. Fendall, Assistant Editor Chris
tian Chronicle, Philadelphia. |
I have derived decided benefit from the use of Hoof
land’s German Bitters, and feel it my privilege to re
commend them as a most valuable tonic, to all who are
Buffering from general debility or from diseases arising
from derangement of oi the liver.
Yours, truly, E. D. Kendall.
[From Ifev. D. Merrige, Pastor of the Passyunk Bap
tist Church, Philadelphia.]
Fromlthe many respectable recommendations given
to Dr. I oofland’s German Bitters, I was induced to
give the n a trial. After using several bottles 1 found
them to be a good remedy for debility, and a most ex
cellent amic for the stomach.
D. Mkrrigk.
[From Rev. Wm. Smith, formerly Pastor of the Vin
centAn and Millville (N. J.) Baptist Churches.]
ILivig used in my family a number of bottles of
your Inland’s German Bitters, I have to say that I
regard Bun as an excellent medicine, specially adapt
ed to lßove the diseases they are recommend for.

THE KIDNEYS.
Tlie kidneys are two in nuraher. situated at the up
per part of the loin, surrounded by fat and consisting
of three parts, viz: The Anterior, the Interior, and
the Exterior.
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tissues
or vei.is, which serve as a deposit for the urine and
convey it to the exterior. The exterior is a conductor
also, terminating in a single tube and called the Ure
ter. The ureters arc connected with the bladder.
The bladder is composed of various coverings or
tissues, divided into parts, viz: the Upper, the Lower,
the Nervous, and the Mucous. The upperexpels, the
lower retains. Many have a desire to urinate without
tlie ability, others urinate without the ability to retain.
This frequently occurs in children.
To cure these affections we must bring into action
tlie muscles, which are engaged in their various func
tions. If they are neglected, Gravel or Dropsy may
ensue.
The reader must also be made aware, that however
slight may be the attack, it is sure to affect his bodily
health and Acntal powers: as our flesh and blood are
supported from these sources.
GOUT, OH RHEUMATISM.
Pain occurring in the loins is indicative of the above
diseases. They occur in persons disposed to acid
stomach and chalky concretions.
THE GRAVEL. •
The gravel ensues from neglect or improper treat
ment of tlie kidneys. The organs being weak, the
water is not expelled from the Nadder, but allowed to
remain : it becomes feverish and sediment forms. It
is from this deposit that the stone is formed and gravel
ensues.
DROPSY
is a collection of water in some parts o?flie body, and
bears different names, according to the parts affected,
viz: when generally diffused over the body, it is called
Anasarca; when of the abdomen, Ascites; when of
the chest, Hydrothorax.
TREATMENT.
Helmbold’s highly concentrated compound Extract
Muchu is decidedly'one of the best remedies for dis
eases ol the bladder, kidneys, gravel, dropsical swell
ings, rheumatism, and gouty affections. Under this
head we have arranged Dysuria, or difficulty and pain
in passing water,. scanty secretion or small and fre
quent discharges of water, Strangury or stopping of
water, Hematuria or bloody urine, Gout and Rheu
matism of the kidneys, without any change in quan
tity, but increase of color or dark water. It was al
ways highly recommended, by the late Dr. Physick,
in these affections.
This medicine increases the power of digestion and
excites the absorbents into healthy exercise, by which
the watery or calcareous depositions and all unnatural
enlargements, as well as pain and inflammation, are
reduced, and is taken by
MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN.
Directions for use and diet accompany.
Pnti.adeLPiuA, Pa., Feb. 25, 1857.
11. T. nEUtßonn, Druggist.
l)-ar Sir: I have been a sufferer, for upwards of
twenty years, with gravel, bladdct and kidney affec-'
tions,‘during which time I have used various medici
nal preparations, and been under the treatment of the
most eminent physicians, experiencing hut little re
lief.
Having Heeti vour preparations extensively adver
tised, I consulted with my family physician' in regard
to using your Extract Buchu.
1 did this because I had used all kinds of adver
tised remedies, and had found them worthless, and
some quite injurious: in fact, I despaired of ever get
ting well, and determined to use no remedies hereafter
unless I knew of the ingredients. It was this that
prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised
that it was composed of buchu, cubehs and juniper
be up.i es, it occurred to me and my physician as an ex
cellent combination, and, with his advice, after an ex
amination of the article, and consulting again with
the druggist, I concluded to try it. I commenced its
use about eight months ago, at which time 1 was con
fined to my room. From the first bottle I was aston
islied and gratified at the beneficial effect, and after
using it three weeks was able to walk out. I felt
much like writing you a full statement of my case at
that time, hut thought my improvement might only
tie temporary, and thcrelore concluded to defer and see
if it would effect a perfect cure, knowing then it
would lie of greater value to you and more satisfactory
to me.
lam now able to report that a cure is effected a)ter
usiwj the remedy for fire months.
I hare not used any now for Hirer months, and feet as
well in all respects as / ever did.
Vour Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste
and odor, a nice tonic and invigorator of the system, I
do not mean to lie without it whenever occasion may
require its use in sucli affections.
