The Opera.— Sig. Briguoli and Ml’le Durand
have reason, we think, to congratulate them
selves upon the grand success attending their
appearance at Concert Hall last evening. An
audience unsurpassed for brilliancy, beauty,
and elegance, testified by repeated applause the
earnest appreciation and remarkable pleasure
which they felt at the splendid rendition of the
various selections. Brignoli won all hearts by
his delightful and graceful manners, as well as
by the thrilliug tones of a voice unequalled for
sweetness, strength, and touching melody. The
reputation which had preceded him was such
as to create in the minds of the music loving
public a desire to hear an expectation of no or
dinary character, and we intend no common
place compliment in asserting that even more
than was looked for became a reality, and that
he will bear with him from Augusta a most
substantial testimonial of the appreciation ol
our citizens. Those who listened to the ex
quisite music of his voice in that soul stirring
song of “ Good Bye Sweetheart,” which he
sang with more than usual power, will never
cease to remember its delightful music and the
cultivated singer who gave it. Mile. Durand is
a Prima Donna of far more than usual attrac
tions, and in every selection in which her sweet
voice was heard, impressed her listeners with
the opinion that discrimination between her
efforts was almost, impossible. The entire pro
gramme, participated in by Locatelii, Sarte,
and Petrillf, was most delightfully selected and
ably carried out bv each and every one of the
artistes engaged. Our citizens have seldom
attended a more pleasing entertainment, and as
they are offered to-night, one equally attractive,
we have no doubt the Hall will again be crowd
ed. The comic Opera of Don Pasquale, with
the great “ Miserere ” from Trovatore will be
given, and we certainly advise all who have not
arranged to attend to do so immediately. Let
the farewell be worthy of the troupe.
Close of the Catholic Fair.—The Macon
Telegraph , ot yesterday, says 'hat the Catholic
Fair terminated on Saturday night last at an
advanced hour. The closing scene was one of
much interest,owing to the anxiety and energy
manifested by the friends of rival aspirants for
the fountain, Star and Chair. It will be re
membered that the Fountain was to be given
to the most popular railroad president; the
Star to the most popular policeman, and the
easy Chair to the most popular minister. As
the hour (or closing the polls drew nigh, the
interest evinced was intense, the friends of the
rivals doing fill that could bedono to secure the
prizes for their favorites. The following are
the number of votes cast, together with the
names of those voted for :
For the Fountain—Mr. Wadley, of the Cen
tral Railroad, 103; Mr. Holt, of the Southwest
ern, 136.
For the Star—Col. Cummins, Chief of Police,
§3; Capt. Simpson, 15 ; Mr. Whippier, 81.
For the Chair—Father Ryan, 38; Bishop
Beckwith, 6; Rev. Mr. Willis, 1.
The highest" number of votes won the arti
cles, and they were accordingly given as above.
Bankrupt Question.— The Charleston News
of yesterday says : “An interesting question
was argued iu the United Slates Court in the
matter of A. T. Stewart & Cos. vs. L. Drucker. It
arose upon the return of A. T. Stewart to a
rule to show cause why further proceedings
should uot bo stayed until the question of dis
charge of the bankrupt was determined. It
was contended by Messrs. Pressley, Lord A
Inglesby, counsel lor Messrs. Stewart & Cos.,
that inasmuch as a discharge might be no re
lease of their debt, they had a right to go and
prove such facts. Mr. Asher D. Cohen, coun
sel lor Mr. L. Drucker, argued that whether
the discharge released the debt or not, their
claim was provable, and all action thereon
must be stayed until discharge was or was not
granted. Alter that had been decided, whether
their debt was discharged or not could come
up when the case was regularly called. The
judgment of the court was reserved.”
The Market House.—lt Is lawlul In times
of peace to prepare for war ; equally is it pro
per iu the season of Summer to prepare for
Winter. Tbo moral of this la that a greater
nuisance, during the cold days of Winter, than
the Augusta market house we do not know. —
Let the wind blow keen and steady from the
Northwest into that funnel of a market house,
and those who go there to purchase or those
who are compelled to remain and sell are of all
men most miserable. How they escape catarrh,
pneumonia and other fatal diseases, we do not
understand. Would it not be well for the
butchers, who are most interested, to petition
Council to remedy this evil by having the north
end of the market protected in some way from
the rude assaults of the wintry blast ?
Northern Watering Places. The New
York World says : “ As to the watering places,
Newport promises to be as popular ns ever.
Eighty-two cottages have been rented there
for the coming season—a larger number by
half than were let at the same time last year.
Some ot the hotels are already preparing for
visitors. One interesting question to transient
visitors at this famous watering place is that
of fares on the steamboat lines, which certain
ly ought to be reduced.”
Assault and Battbbt.— Yesterday morn
ing Millie Williams (colored), procured a war
rant for the arrest ot Emanuel Terry, also col
ored, charged with an assault on her person.
The case was tried before Justice Olin, who
fined the defendant $lO and costs.
Strike.—The car drivers on Second Avenue,
New York, have struck for higher wages, and
no cars have run on the avenue for several
days, all efforts of the company to procure
*ther drivers proving unsuccessful.
Meeting or Council.—The City Council
met last night on the steps ot the City Hall.
There were present: Alderman Clark, Clerk of
Council, Chief of Police, Keeper of the City
Hall, and the two reporters for the press ot the
city.
Alderman Clark stated the object of the
meeting in a clear and forcible style.
The reporter for the Chronicle made a speech
of some length, reverting to the many and per
plexing difficulties connected with the press.
His remarks were listened to with the m'ost
profound attention, ahd the speaker was high
lyNpplauded.
On motion, Council then adjourned to meet
again when called together. The illuminators
were extinguished and the auditory retired in
good order.
A Mtstert. —From a letter to the Macon
Journal $ Messenger , dated at Alexander,
Burke county, April 17th, we find the fol
lowing :
“A Major York, superintendent of the Lamar
plantation, above Wavnesboro, baa mysteri
ously disappeared. The negroes upon the
plantation report that he has run away, and
this opinion has been acquiesced in by the
neighborhood. But from recent demonstra
tions, grave apprehensions are entertained
that he has been foolly dealt with by the ne
groes. Mr. Lamar, who is now in Augusta,
has beeu notified of the facts, who will take
the matter in hand.”
The Streets. —We desire to call particular
attention to the advertisement in this morn
ing’s paper from Alderman Allen, of the Com
mittee on Streets and Drains. He gives fair
warning to the public that the Ordinance rela
tive to throwing trash and other substances in
the streets after 9 o’clock in the morning will
be rigidly enforced.
Destructive Fire at Murfreesboro,
Tenn.—On Friday last the town of Murfrees
boro, Tenn., was scourged by a most disastrous
fire, which burned fifteen business houses, en
tailing a loss of from $75,000 to SIOO,OOO, and
during the progress of which one mau was
killed and two others severely injured by fall
ing timbers.
A Flourishing Newspaper.— lt is stated
that the capital 6tock of the Louisville Courier-
Journal is $300,000, $151,000 of which is owned
by W. N. Holdeman, and $74,000 and $75,000,
respectively, by l6ham Henderson and Henry
Watterson. The stock is worth a premium, bnt
there is none on the market.
Fighting.— The usual quiet and good order
of Bridge Row was yesterday disturbed by a
fight between two colored women. Consider
able hair pulling was done, but no material
damage to the belligerents. The police hove
in sight and the parties made off without ar
rest.
Real Estate.— The valuation of real estate
in Rome, G#., this year, amounts to $1,152,800,
an Increase of $256,625 over last year, and con
tracts for the erection of new buildings have
been let out for about SIOO,OOO.
Personal.— We had the pleasure of a call
yesterday from the urgent of Mrs. O’Donovan,
and are authorized to state that a meeting of
her friends will be held at the Planters’ Hotel,
this evening, at 8 o’clock.
Rain. —We had a delightful rain on Monday
night, which continued at intervals to a late
hour Tuesday morning. The amount of good
done in this section, to the gardens and farms,
by this fail of rain, is incalculable.
Assignee’s Sale —On the 3d of June next,
the banking house of the City BaDk will be
sold, together with a lot of stocks, bonds, <Ssc.

How it Feels to be Blown Up.
The recent sad accident to the Austrian
frigate Radetzky has sharpened up the memory
of an old Drue, who was on board the Danish
sbip ol the line Christian VIII, on the sth day
of April, 184'.), when she exploded. Fortunately
lie was not killed, and has just giveu in the
Vienna Press, in all earnestness, his experiences
and sensations at the time. The old sailor’s
imagination appears to be one of the best. In
the first moment, he says, “ hearing and seeing
both went away, though both came back again
very soon, and I comprehended the whole affair.
I constantly went higher. Not far from me I
saw our foremast flying aronnd me in a very
dangerous manner. Above me every thing was
concealed in the thick powder smoke, which
shut out the son; but below me the land lay
spread out before my dizzy sight in the varie
gated beauty of Spring. The Baltic glistened
like silver in the fresh breeze; but of the
glorious battle ship there was nothing left but
a blazing crater, and upon the frigate Gesion
floated the flag oi the enemy.
“ o, my poor Denmark, how much hast thou
lost! I calculated—this is a remarkable physio
logical fact while I am flying in the air—the
loss at one and a half million rigsdalers ! In
the meantime my movement upward became
slower from second to second, and at last it
appeared as if I was suspended perfectly 6till
for a moment in the ether. An indescribable
feeling of comfort permeated my breast, and
confidence in the future of my dearly loved
fartberlaud entered my soul. But this did not
last long. I sank slowly again to the earth, the
the foremast and all other wrecks around sank
with me. Only a monster cloud of powder
smoke remaiued in the air. Altogether dif
ferent was my frame of mind as I approached
with the rapidity of fifteen leet. in a second. In
ascending, I did not feel at all unhappy, but iu
descending, ou the contrary, I experienced an
oppressive feariuluess which is hardly describ
ablc.
“ 1 now saw before my eye death, upon which
I never once thought. The period of my child
hood sprang fresh in my memory; I thought
of my mother and of my sweatbearts, and with
closed eyes, in maddened speed, I came down
head foremost. The clear and pure water was
beaten into spray as I dove down like a bomb.
I sank slowly, but deeper—ever deeper. Under
neath there prevailed a greenish twilight.—
Finally I reached the dead point; and it ap
peared as if I was again lilted up by the water.
My breath was almost exhausted ; yet I exerted
my luugs to the utmost, and was at last re
warded with life. Even quicker I asceuded,
and at last I came out in the air like a cork. —
Powerful arms seized hold of me, raised me
into the boat, and led me as a prisoner of war
into arrest.”
Two friends, one an Englishman and the
other a Frenchman, chanced to meet at the Pa-»
ris Exposition.
“What! yon are in France, ray dear Wil
liam ?” said the latter, “ I am delighted to see
you. How do you do?”
“Not very will. 1 have been married since
I saw yon last.”
“That’s good.”
“No it isn’t, for my wife was a shrew.”
“ I am sorry ; that’s bad.”
“ Not altogether, tor she brought me a dowry
of ten thousand pounds sterling.”
“Ten thousand pounds! That’s good. It
consoles yon—”
“No It dosen’t, for I invested the money in
herds of cattle, and they all died of the disease
that has just been raging in England.”
“ That’s bad.”
“ Not at all, for the skins Ijronght me more
than I paid for the cattle.”
“Then you are indemnified.”
“No, not altogether; for 1 bought a fine
house with the money, and it has just been
burned.,’
“ Oh, what a misfortune.”
“ Not so great a one either, for my wife was
in it, and ale, was burned in the house.”
The Hon. Jefferson Davis.—A letter re
ceived from this distinguished and beloved
Southerner, dated London, March 17tb, con
veys us, says the New Orleans Picayune , the
pleasing information that bis health is excellent,
and that he intends to return this Spring to the
conntrv which loves him so well. He says:
“It has been my purpose to retnrn this
Spring to what was my home, and if permitted
to do so, without injury or embarrassment to
my friends, to engage in some business which
may yield a support.”
Now, continues the Picayune, that we are
about to reorganize onr efforts to build a rail
road to the Pacific, we can place at tbe bead of
it the man who, as a soldier of tbe United
States, has already made a topographical recon
noissance of tbe route, and, as the head of an
effort to organize a nation, and carry through
a revolution, has shown such powers of
administration as no other living man has
eqnaled.

THE APPETITE FOB TOBACCO
DESTROYED!
LEAVE OFF CHEWING AND SMOKING THE
POISONOUS WEED, TOBACCO..
ORTON’S PREPARATION.
ESTABLISHED 1866.
One box of Orton’s Preparation is warranted to
destroy the appetite for Tobacco, in any person, no
matter how strong the ha bit may be. If it fails in
any case the money will be refunded.. It is perfectly
safe -and harmless in all cases. It is almostimpos
sible to break off the use of Tobacco, by the mere
exercise of the will. Some thing is needed to assist
nature in overcoming aha bit so firmly rooted With
the heip of the Trepara don, there is not the least
trouble. Hundreds have ased it who are willing tn
hea< witneer to >he fact, that. Orton’s Preparation
completely destroys the inpetite for Tobacco, and
leaves the person as free from any desire for it, as
before he commenced its use. Tbe Preparation acts
directly upon the same gi ands and secretions affect
ed by tobacco, and through these upon the blood, tho
roughly cleaning the poi son of Toiiacco from the
system ana thus allaying the unnatural cravings for
Tobacco. No more hanker ing for Tobacco after using
Orton's Preparation. Re collect it is warranted.
The time taken to allay all desire for T'obucco by
the use of the Preparation varies slightly in different
person.;, tho average time being about Five days.
