day. Sim is well adapted to the navigation of
tlie Savannah river, being a passenger and
freight boat. The agent, for this city is Captain
James M. Dye. Our contracted space forbids

fully in our next.
Personal.—Colonel K. A. Nesbit, formerly „
of the Third Georgia Regiment, passed through
our city last night on his way home from Penn

,Mr. lilair, one of the contractors for building
llie City Railroad arrived last evening. Mr.
Kennedy proceeded him two days. Operations

Attractive. —The advertisement of Messrs.
Horton it Walton is peculiarly attractive ; the
list of articles is complete arid the reputation ot
the llrni is sueli that no guarantee is necessary.
To say that Horton it Walton sells this or
that, is equivalent to saying it is first class.
When a customer in (lie country wishes the
“ best,” all he has to do is to write to this old
firm and his wants are supplied.
There is a letter in the Savannah Post Office
for Mrs. Kavaoaugh, Augusta, Ga., and the
Postmaster there advertised it yesterday morn

odiec. As the Savannah papers did not reach
here till last night, wc think tlie notice a teeth
laic.

buggy is fine) and a two seated wagon, for sale

Music in Public Schools. — A desire has
been constantly increasing in (lie public mind
lor i iie past twenty years to have music intro
duced into our schools as a branch of educa
tion, and the attempt to do this iu some cities
has been made ; but we are convinced, says the
Philadelphia Star, from the reports of various
visiting school committees of different places,
that the experiment has not been as satilactory
as desired. Phis arises from the fact the want
of a proper system of instruction for schools
and large classes had not been considered, and
the course of instruction generally adopted
has consisted principally of song aud tune
siugiug, instead of a cosfbe of thorough ruill
nicutal study and practice. Thousands can
testify that singing by ear for years has never
taught them those principles by which they
could sing the simplest piece of music by note.
Therefore, to make the teaching of music a
success in our schools, the proper kind of text
book should be introduced, from which the
whole theory of vocal music could be taught,
and that committed to memory out of school
aud recited the same as any other lesson, so as
secure the proper instruction to the scholar,
and give the more time for practice during the
regular music lesson. The music lesson should
consist of studious and persevering practice of
the rudiments, with, perhaps, the singing of
one or two pieces at the end of thq lesson.—
Such a course would as surely impart to tlie
scholars during the years they spend in school
a thorough knowledge of the elements of vocal
music, as the proper study of grammar would
suable them to write aud speak correctly.
The Pulpit.—By the “ pulpit ”we mean the
substantive—the place from which the preacher
addresses the congregation ; aud in calling
attention to the jiulpit we do so in order to
object to its present style. The pulpit of to
day. although not so objectionable as it was in
the earlier portion of the century, is utterly
opposed to the common-sense views of the
times.
Our prenchers are “ boxed up ’’—they cer
tainly must feel isolated from the people. The
pulpit is elevated from three to six feet above
the beads of tlie audience, and the man of
God, with his message, is surrounded by a
partition of wood work or cloth and railings,
which, in effect, cut him off from the sinners
whom he addresses. lie may preach the
soundest theology—he may be ever so orthodox
and speak with the tongue of men and of
angels ; but, hidden behind this screen i f wood
and cloth, lie will, in a great measure, lail iu
his imporlaut mission.
To us there is something comicai iu the
“boxed up” pulpit. It reminds us of the
little den from which sprang the jumping jack
that frightened and pleased us in infancy, and
sometimes calls up to our minds’ eye the
modern “oyster stand,” behind which some
cuffee waits to minister to our temporal appe
tites.
It is true all our churches are not provided
with such pulpits. The Catholic Church of
this city is free from this (to us) evil—there the
priest has “ ample room and verge enough ” to
speak and act with freedom, and this, to our
luiud, was one-half the charm of Father Ryan’s
oratory when he essayed to speak or preach in
the Catholic Church here.
\Ve heard Bishop Elliott when he preached
the funeral sermou of Bishop l’olk in Saint
Paul’s Church iu 1801, and will never forget the
impression made upon the audience, anil our
observation at the time that the Bishop was not
“cramped ” by a pulpit.
Recently at Athens, when Bishop Pierce pre
sented the prizes to the successful contestants
of the Sophomore class of the State University,
we could but notice the superiority of the
orator on the platform to the preacher behind
the desk- his lorm was iu lull view, and the
slightest movement of the body, the fainlest ac
tion, being observable, and suited to the word,
help to carry home the truth. A week since
we listened to the Rev. Dr. Wilson, one after
noon, when he stood in front of, instead of in,
his pulpit, and although his words were few
and bis exhortations simple, we J’elt, in view
ol the naturalness of the delivery, that tlie
speaker was one ol us, and like unto us, and
the query arose iu our mind: Do not these
preachers feel more, at ease, tcel more freedom
out of their pulpits than in them ? We certain
ly listened with more profit and pleasure.
It seems to us that, iu the cage of a pul pit, a
luiuisLer mutt feel “cribbed, cabined and con
lined,” and that, ex necessitate, his delivery
must be faulty, then why not discard the pulpit,
and get nearer tlie people.
A New York journal says: “ The revolution
in music will put an effectual stop to the influx
of tenth rate singers from Europe who have
been presented to us as artists >y unscrupulous
managers. True musical or damatic ginius
always finds a welcome here, and managers
who endeavor to plaee everything before their
patrons in proper style need not dread failure.
With the brilliant array of novelties before the
public this season by tlie various managers,
Ibere is every reason to expect that it will
eclipse all former ones, both in calibre of artists
and completeness of arrangements.”
Public Sales.—We publish to day, and will
in future, once a week, a summary ol the pith
lie sales:
On the first Tuesday in September, (the day
after to-morrow) the City Sheriff will sell, at

Clergymens’ Salaries.— A few fortunate
clergymen of fashionable churches have hand
some incomes. The majority receive mere
pittances for their services, lienee they are
always dependent, and never free of utterance.
Aud yet, as the Church Union suggests, the life
iusurauce system offers a remedy for the evil,
that the poorest congregation can afford. By
taking a paid-up policy for teu years iu some
reliable company and the payment of a small
sum annually, a clergyman can retire teu years
hence worth ten thousand dollars—enough
even in these times to keep the wolf from the
door and to enable him to be, in a measure, “ a
man of independent mind.”
Another Shell Explosion.—A white man
was taken to the Roper Hospital last night,
who had been badly injured by the explosiou

Preachers Who Rust and Rot Out.
The Christian says :
“ Five preachers rust and rot out with lazi
ness and lust, where one really wears out with
earnest, wise, and well-directed toil. We meet
them, sometimes, flat-chested, flabby-iunscled,
dyspeptic, tobaceo-staincd, smoke-clouded,
pale-faced, helpless, disconsolate, mtsrepresen
tatives ol Him who went about doing good,
and unworthy successors of the strong-limlied,
hardy fishermen of Galilee, who forsook Umir
nets‘and followed Christ, who walked iu4bc
guidance of the counsel of the Lord, who
preached in the might of a divine uimointing,
and who saw thousands converted in a siugle
day.
“It is not preaching that kills preachers. It
is something else. It is dyspepsia acquired in
eo’legc or in school, where ignorant students
arc allowed to attend to their minds and ne
glect their stomachs till both are wrecked for
life. It is burning gas aud kerosene in close
rooms at midnight, when they ougut to be in
bed, and sleeping iu the. morning when they
ought to be lip and out of doors. It is sitting
down in the study with a cigar and a pen, and
trying to cudgel out a dry theory for a Sunday
essay, instead of walking abroad among the
poor, the sick, the tempted, the busy and the
tired, giving each a gracious word, and fetch
ing back a half dozen sermons bubbling up
within the heart. It is being hired aud tied to
talk the same thing over and over, month after
month, to a dull and sleepy congregation, who
seek the life and freshness out ol a preacher’s
soul, instead of leaping out for a raid among
the powers of darkness, and meeting the world
ly, the wicked, the neglected, aud the proiaue,
and pouring lroiu a burning soul inspired by
the Holy Ghost, tlie glad words of peace and
blessing into the .assemblies of those whose
hearing ears and hungry hearts and tearful eyes
will bear you glad witness that the labor is uot
in valu in the Lord.
“It is in lolling idly in parlors, being dined
and wined by rich brethren, and led on mince
pies and plum pudding by the dear sisters who
think • nothing is too good for the ministers,’
until, sick and weary of sueli a life, a sensible
man would long for tlie luxuries of bran bread
aud cold potatoes, instead of being temperate
iu all|ltiiiigs, abstemious, active, vigorous, ear
nest, and alive. It is in spending hours ami
hours writing dry essays which no one else
will ever read, rather than in studying the liv
ing world until it dwells richly within the heart,
and the pouring it out to thirsty souls like the
gush of living fountains. It is in standing up
half choked with a stiff cravat aud close collar,
bending the neck aud cramping every vocal or
gan in the effort to read a prosy sermon, (ill
the face is livid aud the brain paralyzed, in
stead r of standing erect, free and clear, and
talking earnest common sense anil good gospel
to persons who need it, aud love it, and long to
hear it poured forth. It is in having too much
of mail, and that of a poor quality, and too
little of God within Lhe soul ; too much of hu
man weakness and too little of divine power ;
100 much of sectarian feeling, and too little of
broad, all-embracing Christian love; too much
of narrow craft and timorous distrust, and too
little of that heroic lailli that moves the moun
tains, and plucks up the sycamore trees, and
defies foes, and smiles at dangers, and laughs
at impossibilities, and leans forever on the arm
of God.
“ Lord give lae sueli a faitli as this,
And then what e’er may come
I’ll lastc e’en hero tlie hallowed bliss
Os an eternal home.”
“ May the God of all grace enable those whom
he. hath counted faithful, putting them'into tlie
ministry, to fulfill their course with joy, keep
ing their bodies under, being temperate in all
things, abstaining from (lcsldy lusts that war
against tlie soul, and being always ready to
speak a word in season as they go about doing
good. The harvest is great,, tlie work urgent,
the laborers few, the time short, and the Lord
at hand. Let us then labor with all the zeal of
earnest, self-denying souls, to whom mighty
responsibilities have been committed. Let us
be diligent, that we may lie found of him iu
peace, without spot aud Blameless.”
Concueti: Pavement.—As the subject of
pavements is now interesting many of our citi
zens, tbc foliowirg from the New York Even
ing Post may prove interesting :
“ Many people stop In the City Hail park to
watch tile work going on of preparing to lay a
concrete walk across the park from Park Row,
near the head of Beckman street, to Broadway.
The walk laid a year ago irotu the fame point
toward the head of Murray street, which is as
hard as stone and impervious to water, has
{riven so much satisfaction that t lie corporation
made the contract lor another walk. The first
is coarse gravel. This is followed with a
layer of coarse gravel and sharp sand, mixed
thorough with pine tar. Its durability is said
to equal that of stone; it is always level and
smooth, never cracks, and is not affected by
change of temperature, or by frost, or washed
away by heavy rains. YVe understand this con
crete has recently been laid in Brooklyn, for
privato walks and carriage ways, to the amount
of five thousand dollars, and gives the highest
satisfaction, and a contract has just been made
to lay it through the entire track Qf a )iorbe
railroad in that city. In Syracuse thirty miles
of sidewalk are laid with it. It costs about
fifteen cents a square loot, about half tiie price
ot our ordinary flagging in New York. But it
shows for itself, alter a wear of a year, in the
park, and is just as smooth and perfect now as
when first put down.”
Episcopat. Chubcii on Divobcb.—At the

completely in accordance witli the views set

Resolved , That the deputies representing this
diocese in the next geuuritl convention be in

Augusta, Ga., Saturday Noon, i
August 31st, 1807. S
The trade In groceries has been very fair for the
week under consideration, and the increased demand
lor raam) leading articles has stimulated prices. *
Cj^^HiN. —The past week has been very quiet
pales have been effected, viz : 216 bales
for Buyers are very cautious, and spinnors
iu this country and Europe are only purchasing for
immediate consumption,as the impression is univer
sal, notwithstanding the recent unfavorable accounts,
that the crop will be compare l ively a largo one. The
Liverpool market Is reported as quiet, hut steady,
with uplands at 10 The New York market is
heavy at 27c.
There liavo been very few bales of new cotton re
cuived up to date in this State or South Carolina.
The cotton picking operations In this latitude have
been materially interfered with by the ruins which
havu continued through the month.
In estimating the probable crop this season, the
figures vary, as usual, widely. Some set it down at
two millions, others at two aud a half millions, while
a few estimates reach three millions. These estimates
are colored to some extent by the Interest of the par
ties making them, but whether the crop lie large or
small, the prospect for any material increaso In open
ing prices in Liverpool is not very flattering.
Tiie receipts for the past week have been 355 hales.
The stock on hand is 1,823 bales.
Bacon—The stock is very good and of superior
quality, with increased demand there has been an ad
vance of lie. Ip US, and we quote: Western shoulders
15X ; B B sides, 17X ; C. It. sides, 18; clear sides, 19;
and hams, 20(322 cents.
Buttir—Goshen is bringing 45 cents, and good
country, 30(3)35 cents.
Corn—There is very little call for corn and our quo
tations arc nominal, viz; $1 25(3)1 35.
Oats are flat at 00@05.
Wheat is scarce and in very good domand; the
price Is advancing. Wc quote: white, $1 90(3)2 20;
red, $1 75(32.

demand for wheat and turnip culture: Peruvian #IOO

cific, #80; Baugh’s Raw Booe, #7O.
A cable telegram of yesterday says : In Paris the
apprehensions of war in Europe excite the Bourse anil
Rentes arc declining.
The New York Dry Goods market is rather more |
quiet than wh« generally expected, buyers exhibiting
a good degree of caution and care in their purchases.
Prices of all prime brands of goods are, however, very
steady, and in a few instances stocks of goods arc
small, and assortments in jobbers hands rather more
limited
Os the Boston market, the Shippiny Lift of that
city ropoits:
There is a little better feeling in the Dry Goods
market, knt the business of the week has fallen short
of expectation, particularly in Woolens. The fact is,
the fill! trade has not yet set in os was expected, and
although jobbers have lieen doing rather more tho
past two weeks, mill there is not the activity which
should preva'l at this season. We are glad to seo
several Western houses represented here, and hope
that this branch of our trade will bo stronger than it
has been for the past few years.
But few changes havu taken place in Cotton fabrics.
The demand shows some improvement, and low
grades of Brown and Bleached Cottons are a shado
higher, while for heavy goods there is no improve
ment. Ail desirable fine Brown and Bleached goods
are sold closely up to production, and the tendency of
the market is to higher figures.
