Tax on Butchers’ Sales.— lt is stated in
paragraph 31, upon pa.ee 11, of series 3, No. 4,
that “ butchers whose sales do not exceed
*I,OOO annually, an' l butchers who sell butch
ers’ meat exclusively 'W themselves, or agents
traveling from place to place, are subject to a
special tax of five dollars.” This is erroneous.
Butchers who sell butchers’ meal exclusively
by themselves, or agents traveling from place
to place, and not from any shop or stand, arc
required to pay live dollars only. (Sec. 70,
par. 36.) No special tax whatever is imposed
upon a butcher whose annual sales do not ex
ceed *I,OOO, whether he sells from a shop or
stand, or traveling from place to place (sec
tion 80); but. if ids sales are made traveling from
place to place, they must be of “ butchers’
meat exclusively,” or lie will be liable as a ped
dler uuder section 79, par. 33.
Sheriff’s Sale.—Will lie sold, by John D.
Smith, Sheriff of Richmond county, on the (
first. Tuesday in October next, between the
usual hours of sale, at the lower market house,
in the city of Augusta, Richmond county, one
house on leased land, on the Ilarrisouville
road, between the Tuiknctt Springs road and
the corporate limits of the city of Augusta;
bounded north by lot of Epsom Gardner,
south by a vacant lot, east by the Ilarrisoo
ville road, and west by a vacant lot. Said pro
perty levied on by virtue of a fi. fa. issuing
from the Justices’ Court, 120ili District, G. M.,
in favor of Frank Shrimpner vs. Solomon Har
ris. Also, the lease ot the lot upon which
said house is located.
For September.-—We have received from
the publishers, Macon, Ca., the monthly part of
Burke's Weekly, for the above month. It is
improving with each number —the present one
being in advance, decidedly, of any of itn pre
decessors. The publishers will have a new and
very handsome illustrated cover for the October
number. “Jack Dobell,” the story of Fannin
Massacre, and the “ Marooners’ Island” are
continued, and will interest grown people, so
well are they told.
We hone the greatest success for this enter
prise, for most certainly it deserves nothing
less. Messrs. B. & Co. will achieve it, too, if
possible.
Sentenced. —In the County Court, yester
day, John Cook was sentenced to four months
on the chain gang, or two months and thirty
dollars fine. John Cook had stolen ft coat
from his namesake’s store.
Janies Stevens, colored, had a similar sen
tence for stealing brass.
The Christian Church.—There will be a
series of met tings licit! in the Christian
Church, Rev. J. S. Lamar, commencing this
morning, at nine o'clock. Rev. T. W. Harris,
lormerly of the Methodist eomuiuuion, will
preach to-night, at half-past seven o’clock, and
to-morrow night, at the same hour.
A New Floor. —The Justices of the Inferior
Court are having laid in the County Clerk’s
office a plank floor, which will be much more
comfortable than the damp stones which Gen.
MoLaws has been compelled to place his feet
upon in all 60i ts of weather.
A Free Ride.— Some of thc“ Boys in Blue” |
borrowed Bohler’s buggy, which 6tood behind
bis horse, in front of the old Eagle and Phoenix,
on Wednesday night. John blew a bugle
blast, and happily recovered his property.
m The Columbia and Augusta Railroad. —
Chancellor Carroll rendered a decision in this
case, the PJuenix learns, on Tuesday last, in
favor of this company, and dismissed the bill
filed by the South Carolina Railroad Company.
Wagons in Town.— We noticed a great
many country wagons in town yesterday.
Thanks to Judge Levy for the reconstruction
of the roads.
Deserters Captured. —Yesterday four de
serters, who had been arrested by a squad of
United States soldiers, were committed to the
custody of the Chief of Police for safe keeping.
A Cure for Chills.—AbuJ; two years since,
says the Columbus Enquirer, we stated that a
citizen of this vicinity bad told us that he had
broken and cured a-spell of chills and fever by
the use of pure apple vinegar—drinking about
a wincglassful nt a time at intervals before the
time for the return of the chill.
The Rome Courier reports cures by the same
course in itß neighborhood. It says that a lady
friend has known this recipe to be used in many
cases, and has never known it to fail in curing
chills and fever: “Take a wineglasslul of the
best apple vinegar for nine mornings in this
way : Take it three successive days, then omit
it three days, and so on, until the vinegar has
been taken nine inorniugs in all. The vinegar
must be a first rate article of apple vinegar.”
The Prettiest Girls. — John G. Saxo hag
just returned front Europe, and among other
good things which he “gets off” for the Alba
ny Argus is this- "Aureate, I will only say
that, without pretending to make a general
comparison, I saw more pretty girls in Dublin
than in London ; and many more in London
than in Paris. The sweetest voice I ever heard
in conversation came from a German woman
who sold beer and biscuits in the suburbs of
Gotha, with smiles benignant cnougli to turn
cakes aqd ale into ambrosia and nectar. I 6aw
a good deal of the peasantry of many coun
tries, and thought the Irish the most, and the
Roman the least, attractive of all I had the
privilege to study.”
A Washington special says Blackburn, who
returned to the United States after the issue of
the amnesty proclamation, has gone to New
Orleans. The Soldiers’ Union, it is said,
threatens to prosecute him for his alleged con
spiracy to murder their friends, by sending in
fected clothing t<\them during the war.
Much public indignation has been cansed in
Boston by the recent attempt of the State con
stables to confiscate the spirits used by the
Natural History Society. It was witli the ut
most difficulty that Agassiz convinced the State
constables that the spirits were not used for
drinking porposes.
Death of a Prominent Floridian. —The
Ocala (Fla.) Banner, of the 21st instant, an
nounces tlie death of General Win. A. Owens,
a well known and prominent citizen of that ,
section of Florida.
W ho Suffers ?—One of our fire engines was
damaged to the tune of a dozen or two dollars .

The London News, of the 11th of September, J
speaking editorially of the conflict between (
President Johnson and the Congress ol the |
United States, says :
It is, ol course, extremely difficult even to
guess at, the probabilities of Mr. Jolmsou’s j
course. Divided as his motives seem to be be- |
tween self-will and fear, it is impossible to do ,
more than guess either at. the expectations on j
which his conduct is based, or nt the future ac
tions to which they may lead. But in the issue :
of the amnesty proclamation there is probably !
a direct attempt to use his constitutional power J
lo nullify the disfranchising clause of the recon- *
structiou act. _ <
The Independance learns the following from *
Tcrvueren, on the date of the 7th September: (
Dr. Balkans leaves to-day for Ghcel. The
physical and moral state ot the Empress Char- 1
iot.te is so sensibly ameliorated that the con- 1
tinned presence of this distinguished praeti- 1
l.ioner is no longer considered necessary. The «i
LVmeess bus recovered, it is said, all her pres- <
enec of miud. Alter Monday Dr. Bulkens will l
resume the direction of the establishment at (
Glieel, hut lie. will return from time to time to i
Tcrvueren to superintend the progress of the j
cure, ft is stated that the Empress has not yet
learned ol the death of lier consort.
The London Telegraph remarks that there
are no allusions to foreign politics In the speech
of the King of Prussia, consequently nothing
that can positively offend the most sensitive
opponents of German unity. But sharp •ritics
can hardly overlook the significance of a reserve
so marked. While all this means peace, it no
less plainly means unity.
The London Times observes that some gen
era] plan ot German union has become an im
perious necessity ; but as yet the conception of
a plausible scheme for that purpose battles the
creative facilities of Count Bismarck himself.—
A military and commercial compact is all that
North anil South Germany eontemphUc for the
present, and the King thinks himself justified
in characterizing the task which he lays before
the Diet as a work of peace.
A correspondent of the Dublin Freeman's
Journal, writing from Londonderry, Ireland,
on the 10th inst., states that a most suspicions
craft was observed off Bunerava on the coast
Ihe previous evening. She looked to lie about
tiOO or 700 tons burden, was bark rigged, paint
ed black, with white ports. When first seen
■die was close to the mouth of Lough Swilly,
and warned the coast guards from coming
alongside.
A man named William Harbison, charged
with Fenianisin, died in Belfast (Ireland) jail.
At the Bradford (England) Borough Court, a
man of the name of John Lawler was charged
by Sergeant Hopkin with interfering with him
in the discharge of his duty. Ilopkin was en
deavoring to remove some men who were crea
ting a disturbance in a passage in Ivegate.,
when the prisoner interfered, and was so trou
blesome that Hopkin had to obtain the assist
ance of Mr. George Hartley, ex-relieving offi
cer, and the prisoner was taken into custody.
A card was found in Lawler’s possession,
which bore a representation ot James Stephens,
surrounded by portraits of Mnleahy, J. O’Con
nor, T. C. Cory, J. O’Leary, W. F. Roautree,
O’Donovan (Rossa), and'C. J. Kickham. In
the centre of the card was the letter “ C,” hav
i ing at the top the words “ The Irish Republic,”
'and underneath “The Irish Fenian Executive.”
There were some other emblems nnd portraits
on the card. The pugnacious Fenian was
fined 55., and 7s. expenses, or fen days’ im
prisonment in default.
A Berlin journal affirms that an attempt was
made to assassinate the Emperor of Russia, at
Nicolaien, by two men disguised in female at
tire, but that they were arrested, and the mat
ter was hushed up. A short time since there
was a rumor in Paris to this effect, but no con
firmation arriving, it was not credited.
A telegram from Constantinople announces
that the. Turkish troops are concentrating on
the borders of the Principalities, owing to the
agitation in Servia. The Porte has given a
negative reply to the demands made by the
Foreign Embassies relative to Crete. The Pall
Mall Gazette says it is stated that France has
sent a very pressing summons to Turkey to
suspend hostilities in Crete.

OBSEQUIES OF A VICTIM OF THE MANCHESTER
DISTURBANCE.
Manchester, Monday, September 23. —The
funeral of Policeman Brett, who was killed by
the mob on Friday, took place yesterday. The
citizens of Manchester showed their sympathy
for the deceased aud their respect for law and
order by attending the funeral in large num
bers.
The police continue to make arrests of par
ties implicated In the riot, as fast as they can be
identified, and twenty or thirty persons are
now in jail awaiting examination.
TnE Saratoga Murder.— Saratoga, A r . Y.,
September 21.—William J. Kirlly, the billiard
marker at the Union Hotel, Saratoga, who shot
and killed J. Theodore Jones, a deputy county
jail keeper of Hudsou, New Jersey, on the
25th of August last, was on Thursday last put
upon his trial on an indictment for murder, in
the Court of Oyer and Terminer at Ballston.—
The case wo* given to the jury on Friday. The
jury, Which hau b.een out all night, came in
this morning with a verdict of manslaughter in
the second degree.
“ One of the Beauties.”—At Swampscott,
Mass., on Thursday last, one of the State con
stabulary force attempted to seize some liquor
from a military encampment. This roused the
“ loyal ” Massachusetts “ boys in blue," and
they “ seized ” the constable, reconstructed
him with tar and feathers and rode him on a
rail, exhibiting in that way what they called
“ one ol the beauties ” of the prohibitory law.
This was “ loyal.”
Ell Kimberly, of Gnilford, Connecticut, was
kicked by a rooster on Saturday last, and was
so b idly hurt that he is in danger of lock

the knee.
The original Bill Arp killed a deer last week
that weighed 200 pounds nett. Who can beat

“John Brown,” the Reputed Lover of the
Queen.
THE LATEST REPORTS ABOUT HIM.
Referring to the Queen’s visit to Floors Cas
tle, the Edinburgh correspondent of the Inver
ness Advertiser says:
It was observed on several occasions that
John appeared somewhat ofHcious in the dis
charge-of bis duty toward Her Majesty. For
instance, when the royal train arrived at Kelso,
John was the first to approach the carriage
which contained the Queeu, and, but for the
interveution of the Duke and Duchess of Rox
burglie, the Duke of Bucoleueh and other dis
tinguished company on the platform, the stal
wart highlander would have conducted his sov
ereign across the platform and through the
triumphal arch to the royal carriage at the out
side of the railroad station. This he was pre
vented from doing by the Duchess of Rox
burghe, who all but pressed him to one side in
order to approach the Queen on alighting from
the royal saloon. John, who was dressed in
full highland costume, seemed immensely
proud bl his position; and it was certainly
amusing in the extreme to see him now and
again, with a broad grin, bowing his acknowl
edgements for the cheers raised for her Majes
ty, some of which he probably thought were
intended for himself. On the occasion of the
visit to Melrose, John accompanied the royal
visitors into the abbey, and seemed anxious to
obtain a good view of the architectural beau
ties with which it abounds. On returning to
the carriage, in advance of the Queen, he fouud
that his Balmoral bonnet had fallen from the
hack seat over to that which her Majesty was
again about to occnpy; lie lifted it up with the
point of her Majesty’s parasol, then took off
the Queen’s black shawl, and then threw It over
him, and on her Majesty again reaching the
carriage he assisted her into her seat, and plac
ed the shawl over her skouldcrs with great
care. “ Welcome to the Borders—John
Brown,” and “God save the Queen —John
Brown,” were the words which, surrounded
with floral decorations, were displayed over a
shop in otic of the principal streets in Kelso.—
They were words that astonished many of the
passers by. But the simple explanation of the
matter is this—that the John Brown, whose
name wss painted under the mottos, was no
other than the depent man who kept the shop,
and who never dreamt of a joke when he sur
rounded his signboard with these words ot
welcome and good will towards his sovereign.
Shipment op Cotton —We are informed
that arrangements have been perfected by
which cotton may be transported from Mem
phis to New York, and other Eastern cities, via
Charleston, with but one transfer, Deing car
ried from Memphis to Atlanta, 447 miles, and
Atlanta to Charleston, 308 miles, thence per
steamer to New York. The time occupied in
the transit being but six days ! We further
learn that a rate of freight has been agreed
upon which will successfully compete with any
other route between Memphis and New York ;
and it is believed and hoped that a large trade,
which hitherto has gone over the Western
route, will be carried this season through Geor
gia. A low tariff on merchandise has also been
established, it being designed to induce ship
ments by this line from New York to the West,
and thus restore to this line a business it en
joyed prior to the late war. The cotton tariff
from Memphis, Atlanta and Charleston has
been made at the same pro rata as the New York
rates, thus giving the merchants of those cities
the full benfit of the lowest through rates.
One other admirable feature in couuection
with this liue is contemplated, which, if it can
be introduced, may be the means of both less
ening the lime and expense of shipment be
tween Memphis and New York. We allude to
the sending of freight between Memphis and
Charleston without breaking the hulk at this
point. —Atlanta Intelligencer.
Fanny Janaushek.— Mr. Maretzek hav
ing brought the opera to a state of perfec
tion in which it may be trusted to go pros
perously and satisfactorily with but the or
dinary attention due to a finely systema
tized business, is now preparing for the in
troduction, at the Academy of Music, of
Mdlle. Fanny Janaushek, the German Ris
ton, and one of the most beautiful women
on the stage. Bhe is expected to arrive
from Europe this week, together with a
complete company of auxilairy artists. Her
repertoire is very similar to that of Rachel
and Ristori, but comprises several flue roles
never undertaken by the lamented Jewess,
nor by the eminent Italian tragedienne.
Jnnaushek’s name is hardly known hi this
country, but the Europeans generally place
her at the head of living tragediennes. Her
presence at the Academy this winter will
be a feature of the season, as resplendent as
it lias been unanticipated.

Kuaßjrißi.r> W'tiuvjit a Sheriff.— ICHtfefleld
is without a sheriff. As is well known, Wra.
Spires, Esq., the incumbent of three years past,
resigned some months ago. As yet the military
authorities have appointed no one in his place.
Edgefield is a very large district, but we are
happy to say that there are extremely few men
in it who could—and still fewer who would—
perform the solemn rite of swallowing the Iron
clad oath. Os the aborigines, none !
Saturday last was return day preceding the
fall term of the court of common pleas and
general sessions for Edgefield district. There
being no sheriff, of course no writs were issued
or served. The court will sit ou Monday, the
7tli proximo. Judge Aldrich of Barnwell, will
preside. We take it for granted but little will
be done ; and fear that the upshot of this sheriff
less aud rudderless condition will he the forc
ing of every body into the military or provost
eourt. — Advertiser.
The following example cf what good fanning
will accomplish, was recently related by Dr, ,
Loring, President of the New England Agri- ]
cultural Society : S
He knew a man in Massachusetts, who, in (
1825, bought twenty acres of land, lie has ap- t
plied to it all the accurate knowledge that he
could get. There is no month in the year that
something does not bloom on his farm ; there
is something green there always ; and be al- 1
ways lifts someting to send to mnrket. Yon
walk through it and find everything going on
just ns regularly, accurately aud carefully as the
cotton goes through the loom. He has man- I
aged bis affairs with prudence, accuracy and 1
care, and haa made from his farm of twenty <
acres $250,000 in forty years.
A Remarkable Case of Longevity.—Died,
in this county, on the 16th instant, in the fami- '
ly of Thomas H. Hill, a negro woman (an im- ,
ported native African) by the name of Clara, at
the age of 104 years. She often walked five '
miles, to this city, in an hour and a half, to see '
her daughter and acquaintances. She never j
lost her eye-siget, and could thrend a needle '
and do all ordinary kinds of sewing. Also
could spin the finest kinds of thread, and was
always at work, although she had been excused
from labor for many years by her owners.
[Macon Journal $ Messenger. ,
Senator Wade, in a late speech, gave his au
dience the benefit of the following remark,
which will be found highly flattering to the
people of Kentucky, who gave the Federal ar
my over eighty thousand of her best fighting
sons:
Compare negro voting 7 'etmessee with “ rebel
cursed Kentucky." In the latter they have
elected a full ticket of traitors to Congress,
but not one devil of tbem will ever get a seat
there.
Death of a Georgian in Texas.—The nu
merous friends and relatives of Dr. John R.
Robson, formerly of this State, will he pained
to learn of his death by yellow fever. The sad
event took place at LaGrange, Texas, on the
I2th inst, a dispatch to that effect having been
received in this city yesterday from the wife of
the deceased. Dr. Robsou was the brother of
our esteemed fellow-citizens of that name, with
whom we heartily sympathize in their bereave
ment. — Intelligencer, 25 th.
The Cotton Crop.—One month since it was
thought the cotton crop in this section would
not. exceed that of last year, bnt the past month
has been fine for cotton, and it is now thought
that 10,000 bales will be shipped against 3,400
last year. J f fh.e Prop does turn out as well as
now thought, greenbacks will be more plenti
ful than any time since the surrender. Who
objects ?— Borne Commei cial.
Sap Occurrence.—lt is with great pain and
sympathy we announce the death, on Monday
last, of Miss Mattie Qiiphant, daughter of Mr.
N. C. Oliphant, of this town. The unfortunate
young lady was thrown violently from a buggy
on Saturday last, the horse baviDg taken fright,
and being unmanageable, ran away and over
turned the buggy, inflicting such injuries as
caused her death. — Carolina Spartan.
Homicide.—We learn, in a quarrel between
John Burgess and William MAuidln, on the 6th
inst., the latter was killed by a blow on the head
with a rock by the former. The fatal occur
reuce took place near Enoree Factory, in this
district. It is said that Mauldin was pursuing
Burgess with an open knife.— Carolina Spartan.

V. COTTON PRESS.
opinion^ of tiie PEOPLE :
MESSRS. LITTLE & MARSHALL:
Gentlemen : I used, during the past season, one of “ INGERSOLL’S PORTABLE COT
TON PRESSES,” purchased of you last September. I have always been prejudiced in favor of
the “Screw Press,” and nothing but dire necessity induced me try any other. 1 take pleasure,
however, in adding my testimony in favor of its entire adaptation to the wants of a Cotton Plan
tation. It lias surpassed my most sanguine expectations. 1 have packed with but two hauds,
yet I preier four—two at each lever. My bales all weighed over 500 lbs. The first lot I sent to
market averaged 50- lbs. My impression is that 500 lbs. is about the capacity of tlie Press, and
a greater number of pounds subject the follow-bloek to too much risk, unless the sides of the
cotton box was increased. It would add greatly to the value of the Press if the cotton box was
ten inches longer, in haste, 1 am, very respectfully, yonr obedient servant, &<\,
B. W. LAWTON.
P. S.—l took my Press down and carried it some four miles to pack the crop of u neighbor,
who failed to have a “Screw” built; he was so much pleased that he has determined to aban
don the “Screw” and purchase “Ingersoll’s Press.” B. W. L.

Gentlemen: 1 have just received your letter ol February 14th—upon my return to this <
place, after an absence of two months—and this reply may be too late for your “ Descriptive •
Circular of Ingersoll’s Cotton Press.”
The Press I used in packing my cotton last year worked admirably, packing with case from .
00 to 525 lbs. Witli good active bauds to woik it, I am satisfied that from eighteen to twenty
bales might readily be packed In a day.
This Press combines the advantages of lightness and consequent portability and simplicity
(being easily managed by any one of ordinary intelligence). Great compressing force, with lit- j
tie motive power, and “last, but not least,” it is worked entirely by hand, thus saving for the
farm horses the hard labor imposed upon them by the use of the ordinary “ Screw.”
Respeetiully, &e., yours, E. M. LAW.
