The laying of the corner stone of their new house of worship is an event which, if we are to judge from the deep and general in terest exhibited in the arrangements for the occasion, is to furnish fresh strength to the faithful adherence for which they have been signalized in the past in their devotion to the principles and observances of their faith. The procession in honor of the occasion was formed about 3 o’clock, under direc tion of Chief Marshal J. J. Cohen, at the Bell Tower. Constituting the procession were members of the Congregation, the Sabbath School scholars and teachers, members of the Lodge B’nai Berith, the Mayor and Members of the City Council under escort of a committee of members of the Congregation, members of Social and Webb Masonic Lodges, and members of Washington and Miller Lodges of Odd Fellows. Preceded by a Wand of music, the proces sion, under command of Chief Marshal Cohen, moved up Greene to Jackson street, thence to Broad and down to Centre, thence to Telfair and to the building site of the Synagogue, on the latter street, making quite an attractive and imposing display along its line of march. Th” procession reached the site of the Synagogue about 4 o’clock. The grounds were covered with spectators, eager to witness the impressive ceremonies, and every available point of observation on the adjacent walls, fences and roofs of houses were called into requisition by the large ■assemblage present. Preceded by the Mayor and Members of the City Council, under escort of the com mittee, the several Lodges and Societies In the procession were conducted to a spa cious platform erected at the northeast corner of the building, convenient to the point at. which the corner stone was to be laid, where they were seated. 7n opening the services, the Rev. A. Pevun. Minister of the Congregation, oflfcr t 1 a very feeling and appropriate prayer, alluding therein to that year of salvation, f W.'wher.-itf the land of religions liberty was discovered, and to the happy event of the day. At this juncture, the ceremonies inci dental so the laying of the corner stone transpired in the following order: The Grand Master, Christopher F. Lewis, called upon Grand Treasurer, Thos.G. Bar rett, directing him to deposit in its place the sealed box in his possession, containing the coin, treasures and copies of the seve ral city papers. This done, the Archi tect., D H. Denning, placed the stone in its tied, and reported to the Grand Master that it awaited his examination, inspection and approval. Approaching the stone, the Grand Master called upon Deputy Grand Master Thos. H. Stafford, Senior Grand Warden Otis G. Lynch, and Junior Grand Warden James Murphy, respectively, to present the proper emblems of their several offices, with the Masonic lessons peculiar to each. Receiving them sin gly, the Grand Master applied them to the several surfaces of the stone, after which he impressively announced: “ I have tried and proved this stone by Plumb, Square and Level, and pronounce it to be WEI.I, FORMED, TRUE AN* TRUSTY.” The gold and silver vessels containing the cor»j. wine and oil were then passed to the Grand Master, who, in accordance with ancient ceremony, poured the contents upon the stone, pronouncing the usual in vocation. The Grand Master then, con cluding the ceremony, addressed the architect, delivering to him the emblems of his profession as a mark of fitness for the superintendence and direction of the work. Tun Masonic ceremonial concluded, the gentleman selected to deliver the address, Rev. I. M. Wise, of Cincinnati, appeared, and addressed the assembly for about forty minutes. The eloquent speaker selected the text, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the cor ner.” He very happily illustrated that the Jewish creed, rejected and scorned by the ancients three thousand years ago—their belief iu the Unity of God—still lives, while they and their dogmas and images are buried in the past—their existence dead as their language; while that of the Jew stlil lives, the language in which the Law was proclaimed on Mt. Sinai—iu which the Iwrd David sang his songs eighteen cen turies since—still is the language of the Jews, as unchangeable and undying as their faith in their God. He alluded to the fact that la the erection of this building to the ouc God; all could worship, and sec tarianism could not dwell—it had no place there—and the faith of Israel was that which had been rejected, but now was the head of the “ corner stone.” We regret the lack of facilities offered on the occasion by the Committee for the reporters, thus compelling us to give but a poor synopsis of the happy effort of the eloquent Divine. The address concluded, the Societies were again formed and marched in procession to their several halls, the audience dispersing amid a general expressi on of satisfaction. Visitors Excluded. —lt is indeed grati fying to know that such a general and sincere interest is manifested by our citi zens in the progress of Girardey’s new Opera House. This exhibition of interest in this much-needed improvement of our city is particularly gratifying to the public spirited proprietor of this building, who is pushing it to completion as rapidly as possible. Notwithstanding the high ap preciation in which Major Glrardey holds the interest manifested in the early and successful completion of his enterprise, be has been necessitated, in justice and pro tection to the artists engaged in painting the scenery; etc., to exclude visitors from the building for the present. This will be considered perfectly reasonable by alf who understand the annoyance experienced by workmen subjected to the perplexing pre sence of a continual crowd of visitor*. The Old Firemen of New York to Visit the South.—-The New York Sun says: “ The New York Firemen’s Associa tion, composed of the old officers and mem bers of our once famons volunteer depart ment, have received an urgent request to visit the Sonth during the coming season, and are promised a superb ovation. At the close of the war the firemen of the South made an appeal to their brethren of the North for aid, nearly everything they had having been destroyed. The New York Firemen’s Association responded to the appeal, and gave a splendid hose car riage to Hose Company No 1, of Colum bia, S. C. Onr citizens may remember the melancholy loss of the steamer Andalusia, with their beautiful gift ou board, together with a foil set of fire equipments for each member; yet, nothing daunted, they had another carriage built and presented to the Columbia company, at an outlay of near SIO,OOO. Many of the Southern firemen have been on a visit here, and have urged the New York firemen to visit the South.” Lecture—“ Womln is Not an Angel.” —Capt. Benj. Robinson, to whom we have elsewhere referred, advertises that he will deliver a lecture at Masonic Hall to-night, on the subject announced in the caption of this paragraph. Capt. R. comes well en dorsed, and will doubtless afford those who may attend his lecture an entertainment worthy of patronage. He has recently de livered this lecture in Wilmington, of which the Star says : The subject—“ Woman is not an Augel ” —was well handled, aud his flights of oratory, scathing sarcasm and bitter in vective, intermingled with touching pa thos, as the talented speaker alluded to woman in her sacred, social sphere, where her tender influence and example has al ways been, aud will continue to be,-felt for good, was highly appreciated by the audi ence, as was evinced in the frequent bursts of applause with which his remarks were greeted. Capt. Robinson will visit and lecture in a number of our sister cities of the South, and wc bespeak for him wherever he goes large and appreciative audiences.

The agency for Wliaun’s Superphosphate, the great fertilizer for all crops, is in the hands of this firm. Closing of the Theatre in Charles ton.—The dpurier, of yesterday, reports that the managers of the Metropolitan Theatre Company have determined to close the Hibernian Hall in consequence of the slim attendance during the past three nights. The audiences in attendance night .ly, they state, will pot pay the expenses, and in view of this fact they have thrown np their engagement, which was for three weeks. A Rake Chance to Sec hue Diamonds.— The opportunity is seldom presented in Augusta to purchase at auction the class of jewelry advertised to be sold, without reserve, by Messrs. Bignon & Crump. Their sale of diamond jewelry takes place at 12 o’clock, m., to-day, and will afford an unusual opportunity to those of our citi zens who desire to secure a genuine article ut a moderate price. Attractive to Deai.kks.— Messrs. C. E. Mustin & Cos., from their large and com plete stock of china, glass and crockery, advertise to duplicate any and ad bills bought in New York or Charleston, at the same price, without one cent extra for freight.

Mathewson, agent, who will refund the amount charged in advance of last year’s price to such of his patrons as have purchased from him during the present season.

Fresh and Tender. —John P. Foster advertises his usual Saturday morning and evening display of the finest meats. His stall will be loaded down with choice spe cimens of the “ very best.” Governor Holden’s Pijoslamation.— Governor Holden has issued his proclama tion declaring four counties, viz: Jones, Lenoir, Orange and Chatham, in a state of insurrection, and threatening them with the State militia. Ilis proclamation is a bitter partisan appeal, calculated to em bolden the criminals of the Loyal League, of which he is Grand President, and likely to exasperate those citizens who have banded together for self-protection in parts of the State whore such organisations are regarded as necessary to safety. Under the flimsey veil of pretended impartiality the Governor has acquitted his party friends of all blame, and cast upon his p#,rty enemies all the responsibility of re cent disorders ftlld violence. His procla mation is in strict accordance with the bit ter partisanships which have brought about the said condition of affairs in these coun ties, and is more likely to hasten than hin der any further violence, and may lead to open violence if his threats are carried into execution. — Wilmington Journal.

St. Lours, October 28. — Private dis patches say the steamer Stonewall was burned forty-five miles above Cairo. Os the crew and passengers, numbering 160, but 43 were saved. Dispatches from Salt Lake indicate a serious schism in the Mormon Church. Stenhouse, editor of the Salt Lake Tele graph, and for many years Brigham Young’s most staunch supporter, heads the defec tion. His daughter is one of Brigham Young’s sons’ (Joseph) wives. Later. —The details of the loss of the steamer Stonewall, state that the vessel left St. Louis Tuesday evening, for New Or leans, heavily laden with passengers, horses, mules, hay and other freight. She was burned to the water’s edge. Effort was made to land, but the boat was so heavily laden that she could not reach nearer than one hundred yards of the shore. Great confusion and terror prevailed.— About two hundred cabin and deck pas sengers were aboard, a large number be ing women and children. The flames spread rapidly, and scores of men jumped into the water, and attempted to swim ashore; nearly all were lost. The pilot, engineer, striker, carpenter and forty-four passengers are known to be saved. The captain, clerks, and other officers, and many passengers, were lost. All the books and papers of the boat were lost, as were all the cattle and other freight Many per sons died after reaching the shore, from exposure. All the women and children were lost, nearly, if not all, being burned to death. The conduct of the passengers and officers is said to have been heroic.— Such an appalling scene has not been wit nessed on the Mississippi in many years. The saved were kindly cared for by the of ficers of the Belle Memphis, and were car ried to Bt. Louis. An interview with the assistant en gineer of the Stonewall gets the following: “The alarm was given at 6:30, aud in ten minutes the boat was in a sheet of flame. Every person had deserted her. All that were lost were drowned, and none were burned. Os eleven women on board but three were saved. But one yawl was seen, and that was taken possession of by some deck passengers. The last seen of Capt. Scott he was floating down the stream on a log. The people at Neeley’s saw the light and hastened to assist. One man rescued sixteen persons with a skiff, and, had it not have been for this help, all would have been lost.” A gentleman from Paducah, Ky., swam ashore with a lady, and at her entreaties returned to save her child. In swimming ashore, he was grasped by a drowning man and was compelled tp shake him oft - . One man was taken from the wreck so badly burned that he died on reaching the shore. Capt. Landy, of Shreveport, La.,- was saved. There were 39 cabin passengers and crew. All the ladies on board were lost but one, Fulkerson, the pilot, and the carpenter were the only ones of the crew saved. Another statement is, that the fire origi nated from a candle which the deck pas sengers had near some hay, while playing cards. The steamer was run on the gravel bar, the pilot supposing that the passen gers cpuld wade ashore on the bar, but at the end runs a slough, and here the larger number were drowned. Out of two hun dred and fifty passengers and the crew, only thirteen are known to have been saved. VIRGINIA. Richmond, October 28. —C01. Jno. Burke, Inspector of Internal Revenue, aud J. P.
