There were singers, both male and female, in some abundance, but that which gives volume, solemnity aud inspiration to sacred song was wanting. An organ worthy of the church and worthy of the choir was still in the vocative, when certain pious aud devoted members of the church undertook to supply the deficiency through the medium of contribu tions. A sufficient sum was raised to com mence building the instrument, ft is now finished and, lrom the description in the New York Tablet, we should say that Augusta arid Catholic Church arc to be blessed with something really grand in the way of an organ. The Tahiti B' l .V» = Jardinc & i?° n have just completed a magnif icent organ for .‘be Church of the Holy Re deemer, in Augusta. This instrument will he one of the. largest org.-fus in the South, and from its tone it certainly will be one of the best; lor we have rarely heard each a happy blending of powei, variety and sweetness. It has many new and useful mechanical improve monte, introduced by Messrs. Jardine, among which is a very ingenious arrangement bv which the performer can change the combina tions by merely pressing a knob while playing; also, a diminuendo and eresendo pedal, pro ducing the most beautiful effects, ihe diapa sons fully sustain Jardine’s reputation in this reap act, and the pedal trombone is magnificent. The in'mitable Vox Celestis, a copy of the one in the celebrated organ in the Madelaine, in Paris and Introduced in this country by the Messrs. Jardine, is one of the most thrilling ef fects we ever heard. The ease is of the Ro manesque design, and, with its rich decorations, is perfectly unique. It In® been tested by some of our first organists, who pronounce it one of the best of the many noble Organs that are the pride of our city. Illustrated Papers.—Notwithstanding the great city of New York is so overwhelmingly Democratic, every illustrated paper published there is a campaign document for Gen. Grant. There is some slight pretence to independent caricature or artistic effect, but, in the main, Graut has the larger share of favorable wood cuts. Wc suppose these papers have been the recipients of some slight tokens of esteem from the Radical party, and lienee their partial bias. Undeniably, there is a great and subtle in fluence in their pictorial essays, and it is re markable that the Democrats did not think it worth while to employ so considerable an auxiliary. Os all these papers, Harper's Weekly is most Intensely mongrel and most venomously 101 l and anti-Southern. Its latest master-piece re presents Thad Stevens’ body lying in state at the Capitol. Everything is black. The coffin js black, the floor is black, Ihe guards are black. Even Abe Lincoln’s statue in stone is black—.'he only white spot being a slight sus picion of flaxonlsm on the tip of his nose. Any one wouiu suppose from the complexion of the wood cuts apd the political essays of this journal, that the Messrs. Harper are gen tlemen of African descent. We believe there are several young unmarried Harpers of both sexes. Suppose some of our Sambos or Di nahs try their fortunes with these trooly 101 l brethren. How they can marry among white folks after their everlasting issue of Thomas Nasty pictures, is a perpetual wonder to all who have yet to learn the hypocrisy of your first-class abolitionist or loyalist. Even old Thad Stevens neglected to wed Mrs. Smith, his housekeeper, and we presume the youthful Harpers will sternly deny to Ethiopia wliat their weekly illustrations might well leat Ethiopia to amorously expect. John Merryman <fc Cos. -As merchants of eminent standing and gentlemen of the first class, Messrs. John Merryman & Cos. are known all ovC r the country. With credentials of the best and worthiest kind, they appeal fora con tinuation of th - *t Southern pationage nnc been bestowed upd them for years. c but direct attention to their advertisement in this day’s issue in order to ?ccure the ear o e people, for when John Merryman & Cos. pre sent their claims they are sure to be recognize and appreciated, without any flattery of ye 0- cal. But we know them, and speak feelingly- Let onr agricultural friends give heed and take notice. If they want good, fertilizers, and they sorely do, Merryman <fc Cos. will give them the amplest satisfaction. Jennings & Smith.— Messrs. Jennings & Smith announce that they are prepared to transact business in their line, as Cotton Fac tors and General Commission Merchants.— Everybody knows the irrepressible “Jeff.” He’s an institution, and so is the firm of Jen nings & Smith. Nectar and >'Sich.”—Mr. Bessraan pro claims to lovers of, and dealers in, the best of whisky, that he can offer inducements of a su perior kind. See bis advertisement. D. R. Wright & Co.—This is one of the very oldest, as it is one of the most reputable of Augusta firms. The dry goods business is honorably aud faithfully represented by Wright & Cos., whose maxims of commercial success are sound and profitable to themselves and their patrons. Wright <fc Cos. have adopted for their motto “ cash brings hotter bargains than credit.” Acting upon this rule of conduct, they are enabled to purchase goods at tho lowest market rates North, and sell them in the South as cheap as the New York jobbers. They de sire to make it worth the while of country mer chants to save their money and time in going remotely to aud fro in search of articles which cau be purchased at equally great bargains nearer home. We trust our friends will take these facts into consideration and give Messrs. Wright & Cos. a share of their patronage. City Court. —In this court yesterday five, appeal eases were disposed of by verdicts of special juries, one attachment case dlsmisssed and one appeal case settled. The petit jury was discharged. The following persons received naturaliza tion papers from the court: Timothy Callahan, David Cohen, Timothy Lyons, Patrick Carrol) and Jeremiah O’Hara. The court has adjourned until 10 o’clock, Friday morning. Tuesday, iu the case of Joseph B. Ramsey, false Imprisonment, the jury returned a verdict of guilty. W. R. McLaws, Esq., counsel for the defendant, gave notice that he would move for anew trial. I)r. Couturier’s Entertainment. —A very good house greeted Dr. Couturier and liis ama teur assistants, last evening. The music was charming, both vocal and instrumental. The Doctor’s recitations were, of course, admirable. We feel assured that his many frieuds iu neighboring cities would be delighted to have him give similar entertainments. Good read ing is one of the rarest gifts of the gods and, as the Doctor possesses this gift in an eminent degree, he should not hide it under a. bushel, but rather allow it to have full exercise for the delight and instruction of his fellow country men. Sold. —A freedman bought of our frieud C. B. Day, at one of his auction entertainments, a large book. Cuffec thought it was a family bible and eagerly bid sixty-five cents upon it and made it his own. Happening to inquire of a white gentbeman the value of the afore said Bible, great was the purchaser’s conster nation when told that its value was about nominal, and, instead of a Bible—a family Bible—ho had become the lucky owner of an old report of some forgotten Secretary of the Navy! He is one of the voters, however, and ’rahs, wc presume for Grant and Colfax. Plumb & Leitnek.— Not to know Plumb & Leitner, within a radius of five hundred miles, is to argue oneself unknown. They keep constantly on hand the best of medicines, drugs, garden seeds and a thousand other tilings too numerous to particularize. Our city friends know how to liud them. II any country friends have forgotten, w r e beg them to look out for the sign of the Golden Mortar on Broad street, next door to Platt Brothers. Capricious. —The weather has been very un settled during the last ten days. Copious rains have fallen, and exhibitions of sunshine have been a little mixed with clouds. Turnips, sweet potatoes, grasses, corn, etc., are un doubtedly bettered by the lavors of Jupiter Pluvius; but we are not so sure that his visita tions are wholly acceptable to old King Cotton. Pictorial. — Many of our exchanges have embellished their columns with wood cuts of Seymour and Blair. Blair’s likeness is, at. best, tolerable; lint Seymour’s is little better than a caricature. ills manly and relined countenance is seriously marred by the engraver. Try it again, Messieurs. Auction. —Charlie Day, the irrepressible, will bold forth to-day, at 9>£, a. in., in front of the store of 8. K. Dick, and have something of interest to say about what he offers to bidders, at, their own price. Badges. —Mr. Russell, the popular jeweller’ lias a large supply and varied assortment of political badges. Freight Trains Fired Into.— Mr. John M. Gouldrick, engineering the Butler freight train, going out from Macon on Tuesday night, last, was fired at by no unknown and concealed party, while the train was in rapid motion, at a point, just beyond the further bridge of the Southwestern Railroad, across the Tobesolkeo creek, about five and a half miles from this city. Three of the shots took effect in the tender of the engine. The Eufaiila up freight train, which passed an hour or less afterwards, in charge of Mr. Obadiaii Warner, was also fired at near~thc point above mentioned. The snots wore evidently aimed at the engineers ; lint for tunately neither one of them was hurt. The object of the villains was to kill the engineers and sack the trains. The up and down freight trains on the road pass eacli other at Seago’s, a sow miles beyond tho creek, and Mr. Gonldrlek, when ho got to Seago’a, told Mr. Warner, of tho up train, what had occurred, but Mr. W. determined to make the run, and, putting on a full head of steam, ho came through like a streak, but not without receiving a volley. Comment, is unnecessary. | Macon Telegraph , 27 th. The Devil to Pay.—A certain individual now in this city, than whom no one has played a more prominent part in the negro-Radical usurpation scheme, threatens to exposo the enormities of his party. He claims to have it in black and white that Gordon beat Bullock 6,000 votes for Governor; that he has sacrificed hia honor and self-respect in the service of the Radical parly ; that instead of being rewarded according to his deserts, by those whom he lilted to power, lie ha* been given the cold shoulder anil incontinently shelved ; that he is determined to stand it no longer, nnd finally, that if the He-Cow does not do something for him. and do it “ right quick,” lie intends to throw such a bomb shell into his pen as will turn his horns tailwinds. f Atlanta Constitution. If the man is honest and cares for a return of self-respect, he should speak out, reward or no reward. Be honest, man, and don’t wait for black mail. Dbatii of Mk. Sheffield.— We aro deeply pained in announcing the death of the above named gentleman, which occurrod about five o’clock yesterday afternoon. A quiet, peaceable and upright citizen, his death will be lamented by all Who knew him. He fell at the hands of a gang of negro robbers and assassins, who came to the city armed nnd prepared for such hellish work. Before he died, Mr. Sheffield stated on oath before Justice Burnett, that two of the negroes who were taken before him yes terday were the perpetrators of the crime. He even identified a pocket-book which one of the black fiends had in his hand when he protended to be getting tho monoy for a piece of tobacco wh'eh Mr. 8. had handed him from tho window. We’ are Informed that there is not a doubt ol tho truilt of two of these negfoca now in jail, and the third was evidently oue of the party. A darker more brutal and damnable crime was never before perpetrated in this community. Three of tho demons engaged »u it are still at large. —Macon Telegraph , 21th. Shooting Affair in llawkinsville. On Saturday last, as we are informed, ft white man named Clarke and a negro man got into a quarrel at Hawkinsville, Pulaski county, and the negro drew his pistol and shot C arke. He missed Mr. Clarke, but his ball struck Mr. Pat, Mitchell, Jr., on the head, Just over the ear, in dieting a very serious, it not mortal, wound. The negro then fled, and was immediately pur sued and fired upon fltleeu or twenty times only one shot taking effect in his shoulder. He reached the woods, however, and has protably effected his escape.—Mown Telegraph. BY TELEGRAPH. ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES. ’ W ashington. Washington, August 27—Noon. It has transpired that McCulloch has ordered to he paid a five hundred gold note, and issued an equivalent for a thousand dollar seven-thirty bond, both heretofore pronounced spurious and duplicates. Schofield will not act on Judge Underwood’s suggestions regarding the Virginia judiciary. Washington, August 27 P. M. Senator Fowler, of Tenuessec, in a card de nies complicity in the ring against Rollins as charged by the New York Tribune. Customs for the week ending 22d, nearly 1-1,000,000. Revenue to-day, $523,000. It is stated that McCulloch lias determined to make the issue between himself and Rollins general. No treasury or revenue appointments will be made unless acceptable to McCulloch. Revenue Commissioner Rolliua has instruct ed certain detectives, employed by him under the new law, to perlonu the duties of super visors when circumstances have arisen, or arise, requiring supervisors. ISTew York. New York, August 27. Eight bricklayers were indicted for conspira cy, as a test suit of the right of striking crafts men to prevent others from working. The jury brought in a verdict of guilty. Y irginia. Alexandria, August 27. Iu the horse case, pending in tho Circuit Court, Judge Thomas, in obedience to Stone man, entered an order dismissing the case at plaintiff’s co6t. The case will be carried upon a mandamus to compel Thomas to try the case, thus testing Stoneman’s authority. IN or Mi Carolina. Raleigh, August 27. Hon. David L. Swain, L.L. D., late President of our University, died to-day, at his residence at Chapel Hill, at 1), a. in. A great and good man has fallen. Some weeks ago lie and Pro fessor Fetter were thrown from a wagon, and Mr. 8. seriously injured, though no bones were broken. Ilis death is attributed to the injury, though on yesterday he was cheerful and in dulged in hopes of recovery. Ilis death will be sincerely lamented. This city has been quiet since the departure of the Legislature on Monday last. We arc looking for a warm Presidential can vass. Both parties are moving energetically. Most of the white United States troops are being removed from the State, or more regi ments of negro troops are being concentrated in the State. This is seriously deprecated as an unwise and hazardous arrangement. The peo ple have confidence in the white United States troops because of their superior discipline and capacity for control. We anticipate no trouble at the election, but from the misconduct of the black voters. The whites will not disturb them in the exercise of the suffrage, nor will they provoke discord, but they will not yield any just rights. Newbern, August 27. Messrs. Whitford, Dill <ft Cos., agents of Mur ray’s New York Steamship Line, received to day, from Mr. Wallace Ames, ol Mosely Hall, Lenoir county, the first bale of new cotton. Mr. Ames gave us (he first blossom, and lie now sends the first bale, weighing 500 pouuds. The quality of the cotton is middling. It will be shipped to New York by the first steamer. South. Carolina. Columbia, August 27. Tho Attorney General’s opinion on the bill closing the operations of the Bank of the State declares the State liable for all obligations of Hie bank, and says the Legislature can dis pose ol the assets as it sees fit. Georgia. Savannah, August 27. The heaviest rain storm known for years pre vailed this morning. Tt is feared it will dam age Hie cotton crop. Atlanta, August 27. In the Senate the bill postponing the election in tho city of Savannah until the second Tues day In December passed—33 to 7. It increased the ballot boxes to three. Campbell (negro) opposed postponement. He said If tlie ballot boxes were in one building the negroes would have no chance to vote, and if' |nnt allowed to vote they will light. He warned Senators how they act. In the House a long and warm discussion took plneo on the elibilulily of negroes mem bers and the right of negroes to hold office. Tumlin, (Democrat) said the question is of vital importance to both races in Georgia. Wc are here consuming the people’s money and the action of the Legislature clogged untiHbe ques tion was settled. A motion to reconsider the minority report tood —yeas, 85 ; nays, 53. Scott (Pern.) made a speech on amotion to adopt a substitute declaring all negro mem bers ineligible, lie said this government was formed by Anglo-Saxons. The Mipcriorityand supremacy of this race has never ended on this continent, and this Is the question to decide the negroes an ignorant and servile race. A ma jority of colored members could neither read nor write, and did not know what constitution and laws were. The Supreme Court of the United States, which interpreted the constitu tion of every Stnte of the original thirteen, re cognized Africans ns a separate race. Wash ington fought to establish a white man’s gov ernment. No change of administration can mako a negro equal, socially or politically.— Tho right to ho sued gives no political rights. Tho emancipation proclamation simply de clares negroes free persons of color. Wc don’t deny this, hut do deny their right to sit hern and make laws for the white race and laws of Congress. The reconstruction laws give ne groes no right to hold office. He read from a epeeeii by ex Gov. Brown, who says our con stitution does not center on negroes the right to hold office, but simply to vote. lie said if the Constitution of the United States nor the Shcrman-Shcliaberger bill did not confer on the negro the right to hold office, whence did tho Georgia Convention get the right to confer it upon them ? Adjourned. I-zonisiana. New Orleans, August 27. Yesterday resolutions were offered in the House similar to those of the Senate Tuesday, calling for a committee of inquiry into the charges affecting the official integrity of the Governor. Certain members of the Legislature, in the House, refused to receive the resolutions, a suspension of the rules being necessary for their reception. To-day, under a suspension of the rules for tho purpose, McMillan, leading Radical of the House, introduced a preamble aud resolution, of which the following is the substance: WnERBAS, A Representative of the Tenth District, parish of New Orleans, W. Pope No bles, on the 26th inst., asked leave to introduce a resolution of inquiry into certain assumed rumors touching the official integrity of the Governor ; and Whereas, The Times newspaper, to which said member is or has been attached, this morn ing gives publicity to a resolution sought to bo introduced, and unfounded charges therein contained, Resolved, That acommittee of three be ap pointed to investigate this action of the mem ber from the Tenth District, and if, in the opinion of the said committee, he was prompt ed by malice and a desire to promote the interests of his political party by this unwar ranted proceeding, that the said committe lie, and is hereby, instructed to present a resolu tion expelling said member from this body. The yeas and nays were called ior on the resolution, whieh was lost—26 yeas, 38 nays. The Democrats, without exception, voting in favor of the committee of inquiry. Marine News. Savannah, August 27.
