Masonic Hall.—Wo are glad to be able to
announce to the citizens of Augusta and vicini
ty, that the Rev. G. W. Samson, of Columbian
College, the distinguished and eminent divine,
will deliver a course of three lectures in this
city, on Friday, Saturday and Monday night,
for the benefit of the First Baptist Church. The
subjects of his lecture will be his travels iu the
East. Dr. Samson has the reputation of being
one of the most eloquent and instructive lec
turers iu the United States.
Dr. Samson has been devoting his entire
vacation In traveling through the South, deliv
ering lectures for the purposes of rebuilding
and repairing churches aud institutions of learn
ing, and has met with decided success. His
own reputation added to the noble purposes for
which he labors, will doubtless insure him a
warm reception here. It is not often our peo
ple havo an opportunity of enjoying such a
literary treat, and they will, we trust, avail
themselves of it. An able scholar and an inter
esting and instructive lecturer, ho is devoting
himself with Christian zeal in obliterating the
hideous track which ruthless invaders have
made through the religious and literary institu
tions of the South.

Harper’s Magazine. —M. Markey, the pop
ular news dealer, sends us Harper’s Magazine
lor September. The hot shot poured into this
periodical by the Southern press is beginning
to tell on its morals. In the present number
we find a very diverting sketch of Wilmington
during tk® blockade—very pungent and very
personal.
Cotton Planters’ Convention.— Delegates
attending the Cotton Planters’ Convention at
Macon, on the Cth oi September, will be passed
free over the Central arilroad and its branches
on their return to their respective homes.—
Other roads, we hope, will extend the same
liberality.
Important Arrests— Officer Waring Rus
sell, of Savannah, has succeeded in arresting
several desperate negroes. Among them is the
murderer of Mr. Seckinger, who, our readers
will remember, was killed last week in the
vicinity of Savannah.
Recorder’s Court.— Four or five cases of
minor offences were disposed of, which added
to the treasury some eight or ten dollars.
Our city is peculiarly free of rows and such
like.

The Orescent Monthly.
Messrs. William Evelyn & Co. havo publish
ed the following circular, from which it will be
seen that the publication of the Crescent Month
ly is speedily to be resumed. This will be
gratifying intelligence to the many friends of
that excellent periodical:
The serious illness of Mr. Evelyn, editor and

and to secure the permanoucy of the work.
Upon its merits alone the Crescent Monthly

the true friends of literature, North and South,
are solicited to use their personal influence in
extending its circulation.

Tint Prisoners Lately Sent to Toimr- ,
GAS —IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT. —TllO AbbO- <
Title Banner, of Friday last, contains the fol- .
lowing: “it nffords us much pleasure to an- ]
nouuce that a late dispatch from Washington, ■
received by tho Hon. A. Burt, one of the coun- |
sel of Messrs. Stowers, Keyes and Byrum, ,
states that the recent removal of these pris
oners from Charleston was made without the
knowledge or sanction of the President. Upon
the matter being brought to his attention, tho
President immediately directed that an order
should bo issued for thoir removal to Fort Dela
ware. As there will here be no couflict betwcon
the civil and military we may an
ticipate a. speedy discharge of tho prisoners on
habeas corpus. Wo aro glad to see that the facts
of tho case thus entirely vindicate the character
of the President and relieve him from any im
putation of bad faith in the matter, and we con
gratulate the prisoners’ counsel upon the pros
pect of soon realizing in their behalf the suc
cess to which their eminent sorvices so fully
entitle them.”
Sow Turnips.— Wc find the following good
advice in a country excliango : The scarcity of
grain this winter will evidently be great, as a
result of the great drought this summer. This
may be remedied in part, it each farmer will sow
several acres of his best laud in turnips. They
make excellent food for stock, and will furnish
substance to a large class of persons who may
not be able to obtain other food. Don’t neglect
this. The matter is important enough to claim
the immediate attention of every farmer. Five
hundred bushels of turnips fed to stock are
equal to three hundred and fifty bushels of corn.
Cut down tho withered com stalks, manure
careflilly, and sow rutabagas. The yield will
provide amply for the deficiency in grain, if
carefully managed. Try, it, and upon our word
you will be repaid for your labor.
Gbneral Miles Made a Colonel or Ne
gro Troops. — A telegram from Fortress Mon
roe says : Major General Nelson Miles, com
manding at Fortress Monroe, has been ap
pointed a [colonel in the regular army and
assigned to the command of the Fortieth
United States Infantry. The regiment is one
of many which, being organized, consists of
colored troops, and will be immediately re
cruited. General Miles is now in Washington,
tint has not yet accepted his appointment.
The Red, White and Blub .—The Washing
ton Chronicle tyiys “ a great exeltemen t at a fair
in St. Louis, last week, was caused by the offer
of a rebel sympathizer to donble his bid for a
bouquet tied with red, white uud bine ribbon,
if the blue could be taken off. The auctioneer
removed the blue ribban, and some ardent
Union men present were with difficulty re
strained from lynching him.”
The Collector of Philadelphia. W. I •
Johnson, the recently appointed Collector of
Customs at Philadelphia, called upon Colonel
Thomas, the present incumbent of that office,
with his credentials, on Wednesday, when the
latter coolly informed him that the validity of
his appointment was doubtful, and that he
(Colonel Thomas) could not relinquish the
office until he had consulted with his counsellor
at law.

Important Proclamation by the President of
the United States.
Washington, August 17.
The following has been issued:
By'Jhe President of the United States of Ameri
ca :
A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, A war is existing in the Republic
of Mexico, aggravated by foreign military in
tervention ; and whereas, the United States, in
accordance with their settled habits and policy,
are a neutral power in regard to the war which
thus affects the Republic of Mexico; and
whereas, it has become known that one of the
belligerents in the said war, namely, the Prince
Maximilian, who asserts himself to be Empe
ror in Mexico, has issued a decree in regard to
the Port of Matamoros, and other Mexican
ports which are in the occupation and posses
sion of another of the said belligerents, namely,
the United States of Mexico, which decree is in
the following words :
“ The port of Matamoras and all those of the
northern frontier which have withdrawn from
their obedience to the Government are closed to
foreign and coasting traffic during such time as
the empire of the law shall not be therein rein
stated.
“Article If. Merchandise proceeding from
said ports on arriving at any other where the
excise of the empire is collected, shall pay the
duties on importation, introduction and con
sumption, and on satisfactory proof of contra
vention shall be irremissibly confiscated. Our
Minister of the Treasury is charged with the
punctual execution of this decree.
“ Given at Mexico, the 9th day of July, 1866.”
And whereas , The decree thus recited, by de
claring a belligerent blockade |unsupported by
competent military or naval force, is in viola
tion of the neutral rights of the United States,
as defined by the law of nations as well as of
the treaties existing between the United States
of America and the aforesaid United States of
Mexico:
Now, therefore, I, Andrew Johnson, President
of the United States, do hereby proclaim aud
declare that the aforesaid decree is held, and
will lie held by the United States, to be abso
lutely null and void, as against the Government
and citizens of the United States ; aud that any
attempt which Bliall be made to enforce the
same against the Government or citizens of the
United States will be disallowed.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my
hand, and caused the seal of the United States
to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington, the 17th day
of August, in the year of our Lord, 1866, and
of tho Independence of the United States of
America the ninety-first.

The Presidential Trip to Chicago.
Since my dispatch a few days ago, the pro
gramme for the Presidential trip to Chicago
has been altered by omitting Saratoga from the
list of stopping places. The railroad time
table for the trip, as now arranged, takes the
party from this city iu the 7.30 morning train
on Tuesday, August 28, arriving at Pbiladel
at, 1.30 o’cloek, p. m. The party remain in that
city until 3 o’clock the next morning, Wednes
day, when they leave for New York, arrivin'* at
the latter place at noon. Thursday, August
30, leave New York via Hudson river steamer
in the morning, and arrive in Albany in tho
evening. Friday, August 31, leave Aibauy in
the morning tor Auburn, via Schenectady,
Utica and Syracuse. Saturday, September 1,
leave Auburn for Niagra Falls via Geneva, Ca
nandiagua, Rochester, Brockport, Albion and
Lockport. Rornain at Niagra Falls on Sunday
and leave there on Sunday morning, September
3, for Buffalo, where they halt for three hours,
and then proceed to Cleveland via Erie and
Dunkirk, arriving at Cleveland in the evoniug.
Tuesday, September 4, leave Cleveland in the
morning for Detroit via Toledo and Monroe
ville, stopping three hours at Toledo. Wed
nesday, September 5, leave Detroit via Ann
Harbor, Jackson, Marshall, Kalamazoo and
Michigan City, and arriving at Chicago at about
eight o’cloek in the ovening. Mr. Seward is
the only member of the Cabinet that has posi
tively arranged to accompany the President;
but there is a probability that Postmaster Gen
eral Randall and Secretary McCulloch may be
of the company. The magnificent passenger
car built for Mr. Lincoln is to convey the Pres
idential party through the trip. How long Mr.
Johnson will remain in Chicago is not deter
mined, but not over two days probably. He
has been urged to visit Madison, Wisconsin,
after he gets through at Chicago, and he will,
no doubt, accept the invitation. Returning to
Washington, it is understood the President will
come via Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Columbus
and Pittsburg. It is also understood that on
the trip from New York to Aibauy the party
will stop at West Point, where there will be a
military review aud a collation served up.—
Goneral McCallum, who formerly had charge
of the military railroads, is to have the conduct
of the transportation, and 11. A. Chadwick,
Esq., of Willard’s Hotel, is to take charge of
the provisioning aud quartering of the party
along the route. The ladies of the White
House and of Mr. Seward’s family are to be of
the company.
Corn—Curious Calculations.—A New
England Jolmuy cake—taking the old fashion
ed dimensions—is 10 inches long, 0 iuchcs
Wide, Mild l/*j iuoliog in.tliicknofl''. SuppoßljjM i
the entire crop of llliuol,. for 18(55, was ground i
into meal, converted into Johnny cake, allow- (.
iug one quart of meal to each cake, and the
Johnny cakes were laid up in the form of a
solid wall, 20 feet high and 20 feet wide, so .
that three carriages could go abreast thereon, 1
this wall would reach from Cairo to Dunleith.
It would surround the city of London, cover
ing 110 square miles with a wall 00 feet high
and 60 feet wide of solid bread.
This immeuso crop would put a Johnny cake *
in the hands of every man, woman and child—
savage and civilized —upon the face of tho
habitable globe. It would feed the planet for
two days. It would require a crib 8 feet high
by 8 feet wide, allowing 2% feet to the bushel,
3,278 miles in length, reaching from Passama-
quoddy bay to San Francisco, and a good share „
of the distance back. If it were converted into *■
whisky, computing three gallons to a bushel. It
would form an inland sea sufficient to float the
entiro navies of the world. No man need to 8
starve to death in Illinois.
If all the kernels of this extraordinary crop
were strung on a wire, allowing two and a half
grains to an inch, lepgthwise, there being
67,200 in a bushel, this wire would reach to the
nioon 250 times, forming a cable four inches in a
diameter.
Now, if this gigantic cable could bo twisted
about the necks of speculators, parasites, mo
nopolists, middle men, and all others who r
swindle the honest farmer and producer, and (
the two ends fastened, one to the earth and the
othor to her attending satellite, and these plan- ‘
ets commence revolving in different directions, I
the future avails of corn crops would be most '
likely to find their way into the pcckela of .
those who honestly earned them.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES.
From "Washington.
STANTON’S REMOVAL PROBABLE.
THE SOLDIERS AND SAILORS CONVEN
TION.
HAMILTON RELIEVED AS GOVERNOR
OF TEXAS.
Washington, August 21.
The rumor of Stanton’s removal has been re
vived. It Is probably true. A strong pressure
has been brought to bear against him.
The Missouri Convention delegation urge
the appointment of Gen. Frank Blair, but Gen.
Steedman will probably be the successor.
The call for a Convention of soldiers and
sailors, who endorse the President’s policy, to
meet at Cleveland, September 17th, has been
issued, signed and endorsed by Major General
Frank P. Blair, Rosseur, Custar, McCook,
Steedman, Sol Meredith, Dix, Slocum, Sickles,
and nearly one hundred general officers of the
late Federal army and as many more subordi
nate officers.
The address declares it to be a duty of each
State, os well as their right*, to a participation
in the Government, and that the signers of the
call believe that the South is sincere in its dec
larations, and they are unwilling that her peo
ple shall be held in vassalage, and that they
cannot be denied representation in Congress
without a plain violation of the Constitution.
The address is concluded in saying when the
restoration of Union and preservation of our
form of Government are in issue, however
much we regret to sever cherished political as
sociations and to co-operate with former ene
mies, we must prefer to act with those who
have been wrong and now right, rather than
those who were right and are now wrong.
The President has officially announced to
Hamilton that he is relieved of his position as
Provisional Governor of Texas, the affairs of
that State having been remitted to the constitu
tional authorities, chosen by the people thereof.

COTTON.—During the past week there has been
very little Inquiry in our market. A few sales have
been made to shippers but not sufficient to create any
thing like activity in the market. The news from
Europe, while it confirms hopes of a permanent peace,
has had no effect on the cotton market beyond impart
ing a degree of flrmn es s on the part of holders.
The accounts from all parts of the country report
the prospect for the incoming crop as very poor in
deed, many planters are discouraged and say that their
crops will hardly pay the expense still to be incurred
In picking, baling and sending to market.
Holders of cotton are firm at the following quota
tions:
Middling 28c.
Strict Middling 29c.
Good Middling 30c.
At tho foregoing figur es buyers, of course, pay the
cotton tax.
DRY GOODS.—The stock, as usual, at this season
is light and but little doing. Our merchants, generally
are absent,'at the North, purchasing tbelr fall sup
plies.
DOMESTICS.—Augusta Factory and all domestics
are in very good demand. Yarns are much sought
after.
BAGGING AND ROPE are still in good demand
and we have a still further advance of l@2c. on last
weeks figures to note.
GROCERIES.—There has been some improvement
In the trade over that of the week previous. The
market Is well supplied with Bacon, and it is somewhat
dull of sale, with a slight decline from last weeks quo
tations. Flour Is dull, with no change. Good Butter
is in demand and scarce. Corn Is quiet at 'last weeks
figures.
TOBACCO.—The stocks are getting light and prices
are somewhat stiffening; Medium is scarce and In
demand.
