F. A. Brahe & Co.—We refer our read
ers to the advertisement of Messrs. Brahe
& Cos., who have the most imposing, if not
the most splendidly appointed, jewelry es
tablishment in all this region. Their stock
of silver and plated ware is gorgeous and
magnificent; and we should say that one
of the greatest pleasures of wealth must
consist in the ability to purchase and pos
sess those miracles of beauty and useful
ness which repose on the shelves of Brahe
& Cos. The prevailing style is known as
the Pompeian ; it is copied from the origi
nal antique, aud has a charm about it su
perior to the more modern devices. In the
jewelry department, Brahe & Cos. are re
splendent. They have taken pains to im
port the latest sensations and their display
is both full and dazzling. Many novelties
in the way of ear rings, bracelets, breast
pins, etc., can be found among their curi
osities of gold and gems. Messrs. Brahe
& Cos. have also an admirable lot of fancy
and ornamental goods. Inn word, from a
personal examination, we should, say that
though this firm may be equalled iq the
superb character and variety of its goods,
it cannot be excelled in the South.
The AStna Life Insurance Company.
—Elsewhere in our columns will he found
the advertisement of this corporation, to
which wc direct special attention. It com
mends itself in one respect, from having
been the first, after the close of the war, to
renew its Southern policies which had
lapsed during the progress of hostilities.
For fair and equitable dealing, economical
and prudent management, linked with
prompt payment of losses and reliability,
this company enjoys a widely acknowl
edged prominence.
We have been informed by the manager
of the interests of this company in Au
gusta, Mr. C. W. Harris, that the corpora
tion is nojv investigating the propriety of
Southern investments, wUji a itiew, securi
ties and rates of interest justifying, to in
vest $500,000 to 11,000,000 during the ensu
ing year. Meeting this purpose with an en
couraging patronage will turn the scale
directly in favor of this section, which our
people will do well to take into considera
tion. Active, reliable and experienced
traveling agents can secure employment in
Georgia and South Carolina, on application
to Mr. Harris.
A Burglar Trapped. —A negro burglar,
of some considerable parts, named Hamp
ton Mouzon, hailing from South Carolina,
was before Justice Ells yesterday. On last
Saturday night, 25th ult., lie forced his
way through the window of the residence
of a widow lady, Mrs. Hampton, on Tel
fair street, and stole several articles of bed
ding and wearing apparel. lie was sus
pected, a search warrant was issued, and
the missing goods were found in his house,
together with a handsome toilet case and
silver powder box, which he acknowl
edged to have stolen from another lady in
the city, entering her house, last Sunday
night, in the same manner as he did that
of Mrs. Hampton. On his trial, the prose
cutors declined to prosecute this scoundrel
for burglary, one of them being just on the
eve of removal from the city. He was
allowed to plead guilty to a charge of
larceny from the house, under which Jus
tice Ells very properly gave him the full
benefit of the law, sentencing him to twelve
months’ hard labor on the public works.
The Charleston Courier. —This ven
erable and esteemed cotemporary reaches
us in an enlarged form, an addition of
space equivalent to seven columns of its
former size. The Courier, as is well known,
is the oldest journal in our sister State, and
its merits take full rank with its age. We
need not say more of a journal which has
so constantly enjoyed the highest degree of
appreciation throughout the South, to the
development of the varied resources of
wldcl) it has so faithfully contributed.
May onr cotemporary continne to receive
the reward due to the tact, energy and ex
cellence which its well freighted columns
fudicate.
Three Hundred and One. —Citizens of
and visitors to Augusta, who desire to
save greenbacks, and at the same time
secure the latest, most elegant and beauti
ful styles of the season for dress and ser
vice, must keep their eyes open for “301,”
otherwise the popular “Fredericksburg
Store,” which is now filled with one of the
most magnificent stocks of dry goods to be
found in the city. In addition, constant
purchases are being made by the senior
member of the firm in the Northern mar
kets, supplying all the modem novelties.
That Bee Hive.— We take pleasure iu
directing attention to the advertisement of
Mr. George Weber, surmounted with a bee
hive, fit emblem of the establishment it is
designed to illustrate. With ample expe
rience and a faithful devotion to the wants
of all who favor him with their patronage,
combined with the very choice and elegant
stock with which he is provided, we com
mend Mr. Weber to our readers, city and
country, as worthy of ft liberal share of
public patronage.
Fine Rain. —Glorious showers yesterday
afternoon and last night. No dust. Pros
pect of an elevated river, now much de
sired by planters and steamboat njen. Let
con?e.
Consolidation and Strength.— The
popular and reliable insurance companies
of Virginia, the Piedmont aud Arlington,
have efiected a consolidation, thus matur
ing a strength which makes assurance
doubly sure, and gives to policy holders
largely increased advantages in the pro
spective, as to certainty and amount of divi
dends and the creation of a better reserve
fund. See advertisement.
Recorder's Court. —Yesterday morn
ing, Harry Salisbury was arraigned for
violation of the 18th section, plead guilty,
and was fined $5 and cost, or ten days on
the chain gang.
Ezekiel and Rosa Williams were ar
raigned on the same charge, and dismissed
on payment of cost.
Right Side Up.—A New York special
to the Mobile Advertiser says: “ The house
of Hoyt & Gardner, so well known by
many Southerners, stood pluckily all day
Friday. They have passed the crisis clear,
and stand better than ever.”
Liverpool Freights. —The attention of
shippers is directed to the advertisement of
Messrs. Roach & Cos., of Charleston, con--
cerning the bark Annie Torry, now loading
at that port lor Liverpool, and which will
have quick dispatch.

Richmond Academy.
This old and cherished institution was
re-opened on the Ist ultimo, under Colonel
G. W. Rains, assisted by Major West and
General Rains. The most perfect arrange
ments have been made for a hundred aud
fifty scholars, and those desirous of patron
izing the Academy are urged to be prompt
in entering their sous.
The Board of Trustees, deeply impressed
with the value and importance of educa
lion, and . desirous of enlarging and ex
panding the Academy in its sphere of use
fulness, have appointed twenty beneficiary
students. This, we learn, makes the entire
number of scholars at present in attend
ance over seventy; but this is but a small
proportion of our youth, aud it is to be
hoped that a greater number will be added
to the school. No city or country can ever
become truly great until it educates its
sons and trains its own intellect.
The Academy was founded and endowed
for the express purpose of becoming the
seat of learning of Richmond county. At
the close of the war the Trustees reorgan
ized the school and placed it upon the high
est footing. For two years it lias been in
successful operation and with a liberal
patronage would flourish and do the city
infinite good and lasting honor. *
One-Half the Stoky Not Told.— As
the Queen of Sheba, attracted by the re
ports of the grandeur aud glory of King
Solomon, found on visiting him in his
royal city of Jerusalem, that not half the
story of his surpassing splendors had been
told, so would any one visiting, for the
first time, Prontaut’s great jewelry and
silver store in Augusta, finding that noth
ing he had heard of it previously had giveu
him aoy idea of its surpassing grandeur.—
He would stand in mute amazement and
admiration. For every clime in the world
has given up the richest of its gems, jewels
and precious metals to adorn and enrich
Prontaut’s. Prontaut has, all the year
round, a card in the Advertiser. He has no
superior in the line of jewelry, gold aud
silver ware, precious stones and objects de
vertu. His establishment is widely aud
worthily popular, and he is largely and de
servedly patronized.
Proutaut’s is under the Augusta Hotel.

Move diseases are the result of a derange
ment of the Liver than from any other

part of the system sympathizes with it, and
general prostration and decline is the result.

RAILROAD MEETING IN ATHENS.
Athens, October 2.
The following report was adopted by the
Athens Railroad Convention to-day:
1 .Resolved, That we hail with the liveliest
interest the extension of the Georgia Rail
road, as now proposed, from Alliens to
Rabun Gap, and consider it in every point
of view more desirable that said extension
be a constituent part of the Georgia Rail
road, and under the control and manage
ment of the President and Directors of
that corporation, than to be an independent
aud separate company, even if we had the
capital to do so, because it can be con
structed with more economy and at less
outlay of capital; and when constructed
it can be operated more efficiently and
more profitably, both for the stockholders
and the people.
2. Resolved, That it is the interest and
duty of the people along the line of the ex
tension to grant the right of way frefcly
and without charge, and in every way in
their power afford all the facilities they can
in building and operating the road.
3. Resolved, That we recommend the In
teudant and Wardens of the town of
Athens to call a meeting of the citizens to
consider the propriety of pledging for this
enterprise the sum of dollars, and the
property holders of the town to subscribe
liberally for stock and urge the same course
upon the citizens of Clark, Jackson, Madi
son, Franklin, Banks, Hall, White, Haber
sham and Rabun especially, and gener
ally upon all Northeast Cjeqrgia and the
counties below Athens on the line of the
Georgia Railroad.
4. Resolved, That while we thus pledge
ourselves, and recommend the people to do
likewise, we must, in a large degree, look
to the Georgia Railroad and Banking Com
pany and the city of Augusta and her peo
ple to furnish the means for this important
enterprise, assured that when once this
steam connection with the great cities of
the West aud its teeming populations is
put in operation, they and we, one and all,
will enjoy advantages even surpassing
those of the rapidly expanding city of At
lanta.
5. Resolved, That committees be appoint
ed by the Chair, after our adjournment and
at his leisure, in all the counties above
named in the third resolution, to co-ope
rate with the President and Directors of
the Georgia Railroad and Banking Com
pany in carrying out such plans and policy
as said President and Directors may adopt
touching the right of way, the subscrip
tion of stock, and all other matters and
things needful a»<l proper in the premises.
