A Pleasant Sukprise and Handsome
Testimonial. —The present popular Chief
of the Augusta Fire Department, Captain
Wm. Bryson, was, on Friday night, made
the recipient of an elegant, serviceable and
costly testimonial of the high appreciation
in -which he is held by the members of Citi
zen Fire Company, No. 8, to whom he sus
tained the relation of commanding officer
previous to his promotion as Chief of the
City Fire Department. The presentation
took place at the hall of No. 8, and was a
complete surprise to Chief Bryson, he hav
ing been summoned there, as he conceived
at the time, for the purpose of consultation
will reference to the completion of ar
rangements for the contemplated picnic of
the company. The handsome and appro
priate gift consists of a firemen's trumpet,
hat and belt.
The presentation address was made by
Capt. P. Armstrong, as follows:
Chief Engineer Bryson:
Sir : I have the pleasing duty to perform
of presenting to you, in behalf of Citizen
No. 8, this beautiful trumpet, hat and belt,
as a slight token of our esteem and appre
ciation of you, and of what you have done
for our company while uhder your com
mand.
Sir, you have stood by our company
upon all occasions, and have given a great
deal of your time and thoughts to its ef
ficient organization ; under you it flourish
ed and was (and is to-day) one of the best
companies in the Department; and, if lam
not greatly mistaken, it will remain so, if
from no other cause than the recollections
of the past.
The recent election for Chief was proof
enough of our attachment to you. We
voted for you unanimously, and did all
that, was in our power, otherwise, to have
you placed in the highest position in the
Fire Department of the city of Augusta.
We succeeded; and, sir, we consider it no
small honor to Citizen, No. 8, to have you
elected from our company. You have been
called to a high, uoblc and responsible po
sition, which 1 am sure you will till With
honor to yourself and the Fire Department
of our beautiful city. Our citizens can
sleep in peace and security, assured that
themselves and their property are safe
while under your control and that of the
self-sacrificing firemen under your com
mand.
Take, then, this trumpet, sir; and when
we hear its clarion sound, we will rally
promptly to storm our arch-enemy, fire,
and subdue it with the waters of the roll
ing Savannah. In conclusion, I beg to as
sure you’that you shall always have the
support and good wishes of every indivi
dual member of your old company.
At the close of his remarks Capt. Arm
strong handed the trumpet to Chief Engi
neer Bryson, who responded in the follow
ing terms :
Capt. Armstrong and Members of Cititen,
Ho. 8 :
You certainly have taken me by surprise,
as I had no idea, on entering the hall this
evening, that I was to be made the recipient
ol' such a beautiful present as this trumpet,
hat and belt. It is impossible for me to
find words to convey to you an idea of my
feelings on this occasion; but rest assured,
I feel rejoiced to know that I am held in
such high esteem and respect, by such no
ble, self-sacrificing and gallent men as com
pose Citizen, No 8. Gentlemen, it shall al
ways be my aim and object to act in the
future as in the past; and I trust that my
deportment as Chief Engineer of the Au
gusta Fire Department shall be such as
not only to merit your confidence, and
respect, but, also, to convince every
member of the Department that I will
act with justice and impartiality. 1 am
not egotistical enough to take all the
credit of building up your company. It is
true that while Captain of your company
I felt it to be a duty incumbent upon me to
do all that was in my power to promote
the interest and welfare of the company.
This 1 tried to do, and many of you came
to the rescue and stood by me, and did all
in your power to assist me.
And, gentlemen, I am happy we have the
satisfaction of knowing that our lalxirs
have lieen crowned with success, and that
Citizen, No. 8, to-night stands second to
no company of the Department.
I accept, then, this beautiful present and
think it needless to say that it will be
cherished as the apple of my eye; and in
after years, whenever my eye rests upon it,
I will bring to mind the many happy times
and pleasant associations 1 had while a
member of Citizen, No. 8.
I again thank you, and sincerely hope
that your future career, as individuals and
as an organization, may lie bright, prosper
ous and happy.
The presentation concluded, Chief Engi
neer Bryson invited the company to par
take of refreshments, which invitation was
cheerfully accepted, and our up-town “ Citi
zens” acquitted themselves, as they ever
do in contests with anything fiery—coming
out masters of the situation.
The trumpet is of silver, of the medalion
patlern, with a gold-plated mouth-piece,
and is exquisitely ornamented with emboss
ed work of the most tasty design and per
fect execution. Attached is a magnificent
plaited silver band and tassel, braided in
the most attractive and finished style. The
inscription on the trumpet is :
Presented to
Wm. Bryson,
Chief of A. F. D.,
By Citizen Fire Company,
No. 8.
The hat and belt are of fine workman
ship and durable material, appropriately
ornamented with gilt flourishes and letters.
This magnificent present reflects no less
credit on those who conceived and execu
ted the purpqpe than it does upon the wor
thy recipient. Coining, as it does, from a
company with which he has been so inti
mately associated, this gift is particularly
significant es their love and confidence.
The articles were on exhibition yester
day at the jewelry establishment of Messrs.
A. Prontaut & Son, and were the admira
tion of the large number of citizens who
examined them. The curious will have an
opportunity of seeing the trumpet, hat and
belt at the same establishment for a few
days longer.

Escaped Convict Arrested.—Yester
day afternoon an escaped negro convict,
Jesse Williams, was picked up on the
bridge by policeman Christman. The
prisoner made a desperate effort to break
arrest, attempting to use a knife to free
himself from his captor. A couple of color
ed men went to the assistance of the police
man, and one of them rendered valuable ser
vice in gnawing his hand until the prisoner
was forced to release? the knife in his grasp,
without accomplishing his- desperate pur
pose. Thus deprived of his weapon, police
man Christman, assisted by the colored
men who had so promptly aided the cap
ture, marched his prisoner to police head
quarters, from whence he was returned to
jail to serve out his unexpired term, after
enjoying a freedom of more than a year’s
duration.
The Case of Belcher and His Assist
ant. —In accordance,with postponement
on Friday afternoon, the case of Revenue
Assessor Belcher and his Assistant, Mr. E.
A. Cory, was brought up before United
States Commissioner Jacob R. Davis yes
terday. The warrant sworn out by Mr. F.
T. Loftin alleges the refusal of Belcher to
obey the order of the Revenue Commission
er,' in adjusting claims of the plaintiff, and
the destruction by Cory of an abstract in
Belcher’s office, evidence of Loftin’s claim.
Mr. John S. Davidson appeared for prosecu
t ion and J. C._C. Black, Esq., for defense. On
motion of prosecuting attorney, in conse
quence ot absence of witnesses, the further
hearing of the ease was -postponed until
Monday morning, at 10 o’clock.
PrsTOL Stolen.—A colored delegate from
Warren county, George Pascal-, visited this
city on Friday night, and was enticed to
accept the hospitalities of a negro travel
ers’ rest. • While-asleep in the house, two
old offenders, John Taylor and Bob Chris
tian, the latter but a few weeks returned
from service on the Macon and Brunswick
Road for former rascality, succeeded in re
lieving him of his pistol. The victim ap
plied to Justice Ells for a warrant, which
was granted, the rogues arrested and tried
yesterday afternoon. They were found
guilty and sentenced to the chain gang—
Taylor for twelve mouths and his accom
plice for nine months. •
Difference in Locality— An Eastern
editor says that a man in New York got,
himself into trouble by marrying two
wives. A Western editor replies by assur
ing his cotemporary that a good many men
had done the same thing by marrying one.
A Northern editor says that quite a num
ber of his acquaintances found trouble
enough by barely promising to marry,
without going any further. A Southern
editor says that a friend of his was both
ered enough when lie was simply found in
company with another man’s wife.
New Flour. —We have been compli
mented by Messrs. Jno. M. Clarke & Cos.
with a sack of elegant new flour, ground at
their well known and popular Augusta
Mills, from wheat grown in this vicinity
by Mr. Peter Sherron. The Augusta Mills
are always fully abreast with the foremost
in sending new flour into market, and have
outstripped their usual enterprise this sea
son, by sending it in about ten days earlier
than any has appeared for the past few
years. .
Bargains in Dry’ Good§. —Messrs. Gray
Turley, with a full and complete stock
in all lines of their trade, have set
apart the present week to furnish bargains
in dry goods to all who may desire to fur
nish themselves ivith seasonable goods.
Those interested in saving money, and at
the same time satisfying* their wants and
necessities, would do well to act on the
suggestion.
City Court. —This court met yesterday
morning pursuant to adjournment. The
hearing of motions Yvas postponed, and
Yvill be determined in vacation. Court
then adjourned to the fourth Monday in
August.
Auction Sales To-Morroyv. —At the

good opportunity to make seasonable pur
chases at low prices.

Cutting. —A difficulty occurred at the
American Hotel on yesterday between two
men traveling with Col. Ames’ company,
(not connected with them) in which one of
them named Murphy was badly cut with a
razor. —Atlanta Intelligencer, 28lh.
Crop* in South Carolina.
Newberry District.'— The dewberry
Herald, of the 26th instant, says:
The weather continues cool* fires are
constantly necessary, and there have been
but few days this Spring (?) warm enough
without the aid of fire. The effect such
remarkable weather is having uponcottisg
and corn is post serious. The very heavy
washing rains also have done no little in
jury of late. Both adverse circumstances
have in many cases almost destroyed the
prospect for cotton at least, and we hear of
many farmers who are plowing up their
cotton fields for the purpose of putting in
corn, not only in this district but in others,
and we trust that wherever replanting has
to be done, that corn and peas have the
preference.
Spartanburg District.— The Carolina
Spartan, of the 27th instant, says:.
We learn that a destructive storm passed
through the western part of this district
several days ago, demolishing fences, blow
ing down trees and several out-liouses, and
washing the lands, greatly to the damage
of the growing crops. The storm, in
width, covered a belt of about a quarter of
a mile, which is distinctly traced by the
fallen timbers, nearly all of which then
standing in its track now lie on the ground.
Darlington District.^—The Darlington
Democrat, of the 26th inst., says :
The weather is still cool and unfovorable
—cotton is much injured, and cannot long
survive such a season. On last Saturday
we had aheavy wind which almost amount
ed to a tornado. The weather looks dark,
and planters look blue.
Clarendon District. —The Clarendon
Press, of the 24tli instant, says :
Corn hud the provision crops generally,
as far as we are able to ascertain, are look
ing finely, and if our farmers had only acted
a little more cautiously and planted more
largely in this respect, our hopes would
have been buoyant with prospects of a
bountiful supply of provisions the coming
year, but unfortunately, they have overbur
dened the land with cotton, and the result
is seemingly a failure, for, owing to the
cool weather, it has been so much injured
that the planter many places has been
compelled to plow it up and are now pre
paring for the second solving.
Sumter District. —The Sumter Watch
man, of the 26th instant, says :
The cool weather continued almost with
out change until the present; has seriously
injured the young cotton plant, and the
prospect, just now, is anything but promis
ing. Com, though small for the season,
shows itself in muclj better prospect.
Edgefield District. —The Edgefield
Advertiser, of the 26th instant, says :
Great gloom has prevailed over the en
tire district for two or three weeks past,
because of the signally cold and nnpro
pitious weather, unprecedented iii the mem
ories of our oldest inhabitants. From all
sections comes the dolorous news thqt the
cotton plant has the sore shin, is yellow
and sickly, has been and still is dying out
rapidly. Many have plowed and hoed in
defatigably to keep the plant alive, but the
cold wind of Sunday night last gave a
quietus to many a promising stalk. Had
it not lx:en for the fertilizers the entire
plant would have probably died out. —
Slowly the weather is becoming warmer,
and we hope the shriveled leaves may yet
revive under the influence of a genial sun.
Many of our farmers are swearing against
the weather, but we have heard of one—
and the world does not call him a good
man—who summoned his freedmen on Sun
day afternoon last, bade them cease singing
psalms, and exhorted them to go imme
diately to hard-down prayinjf for warm
weather. And it will not be forgotten
that Monday, the following day, was.the
warmest and sunniest we have had this
season!
The Crops. —We have passed over a large
portion of this immediate section within
the past ten days, and have seen much to
encourage us' in regarcMo agricultural pros
poets. In Baker and Mitchell counties, as
well as in the portions of Decatur we have
visited, the corn is growing finely, is per
fectly clean, and much of it is waist-high.
The cotton is small, for the season, and in
some instances, the stand is bad, yet we
have seen no cause to apprehend disaster to
this important crop. Indeed, we are. dis
posed to regard the cotton-plant as doing
well. Some of these fields look very beauti
ful, the plant averaging from four to six
inches ih height, aud squares are daily
multiplying, and hardly a sprig of grass to
be seen anywhere. The negroes in Baker
and Mitchell are active, reliable and obedi
ent. We heard of no complaint, but of
much commendation of their conduct. Iu
this country they are not doing so well.
The caterpillar, it Is supposed, has ap
peared in some places, but it has done no
damage as yet, and it is to be hoped that
its early appearauce is a favorable indica
tion.— Bainhridge Argus.
Crops in Meriwether. — correspond
ent of the Macon Telegraph reports from
Meriwether county:
“The Spring has-been unfavorable to
cotton. Mornings are still quite cool, yet
the weed looks tolerably well, the stand is
generally good—the high prices are stimu
lating our people to extraordinary efforts
to make the staple, and a larger area is
planted this year than last. Still, corn
enough Is planted, which looks well, with
a moderate yield, to meet the wants of the
people.”
Crops in Lowndes.— We have heard
some rumors of caterpillar making its ap
pearance not far from this locality. But
we have no definite information upon which
to rely.. We are inclined to think that the
worm that has made its appearance is not
the real cotton caterpillar. Corn crops ure
promising. Not so much can be said of
cotton. We have had much cold; after
every raiu we have had cold.
[ Valdosta Times , 26 th.
Disastrous Storm.— Quite a destructive
tornado occurred in the Northeastern part
of Franklin county, on the evening of the
13th inst. Several residences were blown
down, and in ope instance the foundation
sills were lifted from their places, while the
furniture in the house was carried away
and principally destroyed. The out build
ings of several farms w r ere razeed to the
ground, as well as a considerable amount"
of fencing. Qne farm, owned by a Mr.
Thomas, was left without a single panel of
fence standing. Such a destruction of tim
ber, as was occasioned by the storm, where
it principally raged, has been witnessed by
but few of our oldest citizens. The fruit
trees, the lofty pine and the giant oak of
the forest, all alike yielded at the touch Os
mighty storm, as it raged in its fury. This
tornado seems to have begun its work of
destruction near the Red Hollow road, a
few miles from the residence of Col. Knox,
and extended fn a Northeast direction,
uutil it reached the Tugalo river, about
half a mile above Stribbling’s Ferry, be
yond which point we have heard nothing
of its effects —Athens Banner.
Important Dedtsion in Bankruptcy.—
At Columbus, Dexter B. Thompson, bank
rupted, and died shortly after. His widow
claimed dower in the lands of the bankrupt
estate.
Judge Lawson Black, the Register in
Bankruptcy, decided that she was not en
titled to dower, as the lands had passed
out of the possession of the bankrupt, and
their legal title was in the assignee at
bankrupt’s death.
The widow’s attorney then claimed a
year’s allowance for her out of the estate.
The Register allowed this claim—because
by the laws of Georgia.a widow is allowed
a year’s support, and her claim takes pre
cedence of all debts due by .the deceased ex
cept costs.
The decision will lie argued in June be
fore Judge Erskine, by Benning for the
widow, arid Moses, Guerard aud Downing,
for creditors.
Bad Casualty.— We regret to learn, by
dispatches seat to. this city yesterday to his
brother, that Mr. Alexander CHUUian, out
on a collecting tour for the house oLMeesrs.
Lengnick & Sell, of our city, was rua over
by the railway care at Opelika, Alabama,
and in a short time expired from the i«u

To the' Honorable Judges of the Superior

Dear Sirs : In view of the fact that the
rules of the Court, established by the.
Judges in convention many years since,
jppe defective iu various particulars, and on

Wind and Hail. —A terrible whirlwind,
accompanied by rain and hail, passed over
portions of this count}' on last Saturday
afternoon. We were at the residence of
Mr. Josiali G. Jones, on the Chattahoochee
river, at the time of the storm, and wit
nessed some of its devastations. Mr.
Jones’ gin house was blown down, one man
and mule being under it, but were protect
ed by the cog-wheel, wh'ch was of sufficient
strength to prevent a portion of the build
ing from falling to the ground. Another
man was pulled from under the house by
his mule, which becoming heightened at
the cracking noise of the falling building,
rushed out, the man holding the bridle to
prevent his getting loose from him, and
was thus saved from instant death, as that
portion of the building which was over
him fell to the ground. Quite a number of
other hands were running to get under the
gin house when it fell. A number of trees
were prostrated, doing considerable dam
age to the crops aud fences.
The hail was not observable at Mr.
Jones’, but a few miles distant we were in
formed that Mr. Simpson Lewis sustained
serious injury, both from wind and hail.
His corn was beaten to shreds by the hail
stones, trees were blown down, and por
tions of his fence taken up and carried a
considerable distance by the careering
whirl-wind. —Bainhridge Argus, 29th.
Brutal Murder. —A negro girl living
on the farm of Mr. George Morris, about
seven miles from Barnwell village, was
murdered, by her father, Nelson Sanders,
on th 4 23d inst. Upon examination, the
body was found covered with bruises and
scars from head to foot. There were two
large scars on her head. From what we
could learn,4t«ppeai« she was tortured to
death. The father was found guilty of the
murder, by the jury of inquest, and will,
no doubt, receive the punishment he de
serves.—Barnwell Sentinel, 29th.

Fire. —A large fire occurred last night
about 10 o’clock, ft broke out iu A. L.
Knight & Co.’s fruit packing store, under
Davis’ Hall, aud lasted about an hour aud
a half. The conflagration was fast, fierce
and destructive. It canght and burned
Mr. Gardner’s house, where Mrs. White
takes boarders, the cottage where Mr.
Davis lives, aud a small hut alongside of
the hall. We understand the loss to Mr.
Davis is complete, he having no insurance.
His loss ranges from $40,000 to $60,000,
and makes a huge hole iu his fortune. We
offer him and the other losers a very sin
cere sympathy. Mr. Gardner’s building
cost about $6,500. Insurance was instruct
ed a few days ago, but it is not known
whether it was perfected.

■ Resolutions of thanks to officers of the
qonvention, New Orleans Chamber of Com-
Sierce, the citizens of New Orleans lor
beral hospitalities, the various railroad
aad steamboat lines, and the Western
Union Telegraph Company for courtesies
extended. A brief Speech of thanks in be
half of the Northwestern delegation for
hospitable reception, extending a cordial
invitation to the Southern and Southwest
ern men to the West and Northwest.
The convention adjourned sine die , hav-.
ing been entirely harmonious and success
ful in its objects, and as to character, the
representatives being composed entirely of
active members of commercial, manufac
turing, shipping and agricultural interests.
New Orleans, May 29.—A dispatch
from Jeffersonville, Texas, says that the
proceedings of the military commission en
gaged in the trial of citizens charged with
me murder of George W. Smith, have so
far been confined to the examination of
Major Curtis, in command of the po.st at
the time of the killing, Lieut. Dubois, and
the two freedmen who escaped. The evi
dence of the officers and freedmen conflicts
badly. The officers both swear that all
parties engaged were disguised; the ne
groes swear exactly the opposite. Testi
mony of the two negroes also conflicts. A
large crowd is in attendance, and great in
terest manifested. Over one hundred wit
nesses are summoned to appear June 7th.
