On motion of Mr. S. D. Linton, the Presi

Mr. S. D. Liuton proposed Mr. U. C.
Easterling as a member of the Club, who
was admitted to membership for the en
suing year.
The President announced that being the
annual meeting of the Club, the election
of officers for the ensuing year was in
order, and desired that in view of his past
services ns President of the Club, his name
should not again be put in nomination.
The members of the Club, however, seem
ed too well satisfied with Col. Harris as
presiding officer to permit him to retire to
the rauks, and with one accord endorsed

regular meeting of the Club, by which time
it could be ascertained who would attend.
On motion, the appointment of delegates
t<* the State Fair was postponed to the
next regular meeting.
The meeting then adjourned to the next
regular meeting, the place of assemblage
to be determined by future notice.
NeODO Drowned. —On Friday night,
about 12 o’clock, an old mulatto man,
named Charley Searles, and a cripple, was
drowned at the head ot Walker’s Bar, Bor
9 miles down the river, while attempting
to get aboard of the steamer Carrie. The
unfortunate man weut down the river on
Thursday, to assist in the recovery of the
body of Capt. Leon’s little son, aud was re
turning in a batcaq, wbeu he- hailed the
passing steamer, which slacked up, and he
attempted to get aboard. Before he got
aboard, however, the steamer moved off,
• and he was drowued by having his bateau
thrown in contact with the wheel of the
steamer. The body has not yet been re
covered.
Recorder’s Court. —ln the Recorder’s
Court, yesterday morning, John Brock was
arraigned lor violation of the peddling or
dinance—selling pinchbeck jewelry without
obtaining license. Found guilty, and fined
*5 and cost, or ten days on the chain gang.
Steamer Aground. —The steamer Carrie
went aground on Friday night, on Bugs’s
Bar, about eight or nine miles down the
Savannah river, with a heavy cargo for this
city. Lighters were dispatched to her aid
yesterday afternoon.
Injunction Dissolved.— Judge Gibson,
yesterday, announced his decision, dissolv
ing, conditionally, the injunction on the
Daily Press establishment. We annex the
( decision:
Benjamin Conley, cl. al., vs. E. 11. Pughe.
Motion to dissolve injunction.
I have lieen greatly aided in my decis
ion of this cause by the viery able and
learned manner in which the counsel, both
for complainauts and respondent, have con
ducted the same;. and to the reconcilement
of the apparent conflict between the par
ties, and ascertainment of the real equities
and justice of the parties, I am greatly in
debted to the able and accurate report of
Col. A. C. Holt, the Master in Chancery.
That a partnership of some sort, and lor
some purposes, existed between the com
plainants and the respondent, I. think
there can lie but little doubt. A joint use
of individual property and mutual enjoy
ment of its advantages and profits may
constitute a partnership; written or parol
contracts certainly will. If, then, a part
nership did exist lietween complainants
and respondent, the law attaches thereto
certain responsibilities and liabilities —one
is’the liability of partnership assets to the
payment of its indebtedness, and an
other is the right of either partner to
have an accounting and settlement with
joint partners for moneys contributed or
profits arising therefrom. I know of no
principle of law that will exempt from
liability to debts of a co-partnership (con
tracted for the advantage and interest of
the same) the stock of said co-partnership ;
and moneys contributed by individual
members stand upon the same ground ol
law and justice.
The report of the Master in Chancery
showing, thou, that individual liabilities
are outstanding and unpaid against said
co-partnership, amounting to five thousand
one hundred and seventy 89-100 ($5,170 89)
dollars, and that assets amounting to over
twenty thousand dollars are now in the
hands of respondent, which amount of in
debtedness appears in exhibit “ I” of said
report. It is ordered that said injunction
lie dissolved upon respondent's filing with
the Clerk of the Superior Court, or his de
puty, bond with good and sufficient se
curity to fully pay off and discharge said
indebtedness, and to relieve all of said
complainants from the same and save them
harmless therefrom.
And it further appearing from said re
port that several of said complainants have
contributed moneys at several times to
said partnership, It is further ordered, that
said respondent do, before said injunction
is dissolved, give bond in the nominal sum
of five thousand dollars, to pay to said
complainants whatever may be finally re
covered against him in said cause, by rea
son of said advances, or of profits arising
from said co-partnership.
In the present condition of this case, and
from the full showing made in the Master’s
report of the standing of each of said par
ties, and the condition of the co-partner
ship, I can see no particular necessity for
requiring bonds from the complainauts in
this cause. Wm. Gibson,
J udge.
TnosE Fountains. —They are up, those
fountains are—and looking very pretty,
especially the mermaids and the dolphins
on the east side of the Greene street en
trance of the City Park, and despite old
fogy strictures, these same mermaids will
soon lie spouting equal to Anna Dickinson,
or Muse Anthony, or any other woman that
discards the latest fashions. This fountain
is beautifully proportioned, and when the
water is “turned on,’’ will lie the more
adtaired of the two.
611 the west side of the park is placed
“ Neptune," who, with his trident, looks as
majestic as though he was in Ids own
briny element and not dependent for his
elevated position to the uplifted tails of
these huge dolphins, that look (at present)
like fish out of water. His is a fishy emi
nence, hut as he is a god of temperate
habits, we presume lie can stand it. Long
may he wave.
The standing committee on the foun
tains—we don’t refer to the Neptune ami
the mermaids, but to the Aldermen—will
pardoimuy lack of enthusiasm exhibited
in this paragraph, when we assure them we
never coufd spread ourselves on a cold
water subject, not having a call in that
direction. And our readers will not thank
us for a detailed fiegcpiDtion, as they in
tend to go to see for themsel yes. Dan voyage
A Man Killed' in South Carolina. —
We are advised that on Tuesday last, a
man named John Holley was fatally
wounded near Aiken, S. C. The particu
lars, as they reach us, are, that on Tuesday,
the said John Holley and au employee
named Malloy, had gone.to Aiken to pur
chase supplies. After their purchases
had been com pipp'd, Maloy deposited a
bundle of goods in the tiift of Holley
to be transported to his home. The par
ties left tfie toWJ), as we understand, and
when on the road Maloy requested Hol
ley to nliow him to ride in his csrt. —
Holley declined in consequence of the
heavy road, which so incensed Malloy
Hint he drew his pistol and fatally wound
ed Holley, who was carried to his home,
and has since died. Malloy is remembered
as a man of herculean proportions, who
formerly was a dray driver in this city.
At the time of the killing he was employed
by bis victim. The officers of the law from
South Carolina were in the pity yesterday
in pursuit of the murderer.
The Month Lengthened by a Negro
Magistrate. —A day or two since, a case
came up in Hamburg, S. C., before Prince
Rivers, the wooly-headed legislator who
has been selected to dispense with magis
terial justice iu that community. One of
parties to the suit not being ready for trial,
desired the ebony officer to postpone a
bearing until the thirty-first of September. I
Running his lingers through liis matted
wool, the sable Justiee gathered an alma
nac, which he thumbed to his satisfaction,
aud then anuouuced that a hearing of the
case would be postponed until the thirty
first instant. A loud guffaw saluted this
announcement, when the dignified legisla
tor justified his decision by informing the
audience that he was correct, because he
had been examining an almanac for 18(59.
Our informant did not stale whether light
has yet penetrated the woolly-headed magis
trate.
A Valuable Work. —The September
number of the Carolina Farmer is received.
It fully sustains its reputation as one of
the best agricultural journals of the coun
try. The next (October) number will close
the monthly series; and on the Ist of No
vember it will appear as an eight-page
agricultural and family ’ weekly. In its
new form it will give twice as much agri
cultural matter as at present, besides a
great variety of miscellaneous and general
reading. The price will remain at $3 per
year, jn advance. Address, Wm. H. Ber

Cotton jn Arkansas. —A Helena dis
patch, of Saturday, says:
The cotton-picking season has fairly com
menced. Cotton-pickers are in demand.
Experienced house servants, white, of good
character, and field hands, can obtain im
mediate employment at good wages in this
county. The former are much sought
after.
The drought and blight have blasted the
hopes of the planters hereabouts.
Many gentlemen from the country were
in town to-day, and all assert that the cot
ton prospects have been greatly overrated.
Where a bale to the acre was expected to be
made a month ago, half, or three-quarters
of a bale will only be made. The gathered
crop hereabouts will lie far less than that
of last year.
An Earthquake—Shock Felt in J ek
fbrson County, Tennessee—The Knox
ville Herald, of the 7th, relates the follow
ing. It says:
“ About 9 o’clock on Sunday evening, the
sth iust., the citizens of Dandridge, in Jef
ferson county, were startled by experienc
ing a well-defined shock ol an earthquake,
lasting nearly a minute. The shock was
accompanied by a load rambling noise, oc
casioning much alarm among the people.
Window panes were brokeD, and we learn
from a prominent citizen of Dandridge that
lamp chimneys fell and were smashed to
pieces. Beyond these slight effects, no oth
er ill results of the earthquake occurred.”
A Case of Poisoning. —Mr. J. W. Smith,
a citizen ol this county, near Rocky Plains,
was very severely poisoned, on the 21st
ult., in quite a singular manner. He makes
his tea in a common iron tea kettle, and on
the eveni Dg of the 21st ult. made his tea
as usual, and happening himself to take
the first tea ponred from the kettle. He
states that he had taken bnt a few swal
lows of the tea, when he became very sick.
Two of his neighbors came in, and on ex
amining the kettle, found a large worm,
known as the thousand legged worm, had
crawled into the spout of the kettle, and
poison extracted from it, in making the tea,
produced the injurious effects. Dr. T. W.
Simms, being called in, by ids skill and
timely efforts, relieved the patient of his
suffering.— Covington Examiner.
Immigration. —Five white babies were
born in Grifflu last Sunday, besides quite a
number of pure niggers, and some of the
molasses persuasion; and last Sunday was
a bad day for “ Ixirniug” too. We suppose
on a favorable day we might safely count
on at least a score of little emigrants. Talk
about Chinese ! why the very atmosphere is
redolent of young babyhood. None of the
new comers have as yet declared their poli
tics, but they liellow so much like calves,
that it is feared they will be for Bullock.—
Their noble mothers are trying to get them
“ feted into silence.”— Griffin Star.

From J. O'. Galieher, Esq.,
(Firm of Richards & Bro., Auguste, Ga.)
Dr. J. i lf. Poster: Having been a sufferer
from a eerioos malady in the head for several
years, and failing to obtain aDy relief for it
through the usual means employed by the gen
eral practitioner ol medicine, whose efforts it
had so often baffled, I placed myself under yoor
admirable system ol treatment, through the ad
vice of my physician (in whose jndgiueut I re
posed great confidence.) 1 have been follow
ing your treatment hut ten day only, and the
relief has been so substantial, the head so
much improved, and the general change 60
marked, that I lender you this testimonial in
the hopes that you will soon make a second
visit to Auguste, and that others may have the
advantage of your successful practice and skill.
Hoping you may decide upou an early return,
1 remain, yours truly,
J. G. GALLEUER.

Dr. J. J/. foster :
Dear Sib : Having beeu relieved by you of
a partial deufuetts of some years’ standing, I
take "pleasure lrl’tmvlng yon refer to me. I had
suffered considerable annoyance from my deaf
ness, be&ides having noises iu the ear, which
were particularly disagreeable. A few days
ago 1 vas operated upon by you with flatter
ing success. You did uot cause me the least
pain whatsoever and 1 can now hear ai perfect
ly as ever.
Tendering you roy thanks aud gratitude, I
am, yours truly, JAMES M. BALL.
From Hon. A. A. Gaulding,
Late Judge of Spalding County Court—Member

Atlanta, Ga., July 28, 1569.
Dr. J. M. Foster :
Dear Sir : Having been afflicted with a very
aunoyiug Throat and Bronchial difficulty (that
induced a constant cough), of some years’
standing, 1 placed myself under your system ol
treatment, and I am happy to announce a very
marked improvement after but little more than
a week’s attention, and from present favorable
indications, I think a perfect core will he the
result. A. A. GAULDING.
Prom N. P. Hotchkia, Esq.,
(AUDITOR OF THE W. AND A. R. R.)
Dr. J. M. Foster: Observing that -your
patients report to you by letter their improve
ment, I wish to state that yon have very ranch
benefited my wife, who had been cjuite deaf lor
twenty years. She has been under yonr treat
ment but a few days, and can now bear the

rain upon the roof—something she could not
do for a long time past.
