Opening of Girardey’s Opera House.—
From the subjoined correspondence, it will
be seen that through the liberal tender of
Major I. P. Glrardey and the generous ac
ceptance of the Augusta Benevolent So
ciety, the formal opening of the new Opera
House is to be inaugurated in the presenta
tion of an entertainment befitting the occa
sion, under the auspices of that Society.—
We are advised that all the preliminaries
have been arranged, a highly Interesting
play selected, the cast of characters ar
ranged and in rehersal by members of the
Society, with a view to make the occasion
worthy of the Important event which it is
to signalize in the history of Augusta, and
reflective of credit upon those who have so
cheerfully contributed their time and talent
to furnish our citizens with the most chaste
and refined entertainment, the pecuniary
proceeds of which will be devoted to purely
benevolent objects within our own city.
It is at present purposed to render this
dedicatory entertainment on or about the
18th iustant. Iu the event, however, of
any postponement beyond the 18th which
may lie necessary, we trust that no en
gagements which may have been made by
Maj. Glrardey with theatrical managers
will be urged to the defeat of the pro
gramme here indicated, but that the for
tuuate manager who has secured the Opera
House for the 22d Instant will, if necessary,
postpone the presentation of his entertain
ment for at least a single night.

Not So BaisLy Hurt.—The Macon Tele
graph, of yesterday, in the report of the
Mayor’s Court, says:
“ Capt. J. A. Simpson and M. M- Hall
were fined S2O each for the fight they had
on Saturday last. Both parties appeared
in court and neither were hurt anything
like as bad as we had been led to suppose,
from what we had heard of the affair
awhile after it occurred. Both will be all
right in a day or two.”
A Chance for Dealers.— On Friday
morning, Messrs. Day & Dick will offer, at
their auction rooms, a large stock of variety
goods, new and fresh, and of the latest
styles, frolfi which merchants will have an
opportunity to replenish their stocks at the
most favorable prices. Their usual daily
auction sales will take place this morning.
A Ferret Fastened—An Informer
Informed On. —Ralph Knight, a some
what notorious colors rascal, recently
employed to some advantage by the city
police In discovering negro thieves and
burglars* has at last allowed his inherent
’rascality to crop out to such an extent as
to result in the running of his bead in a
noose so often thrown by him around his
brethren in color and crime. He was ar
rested yesterday, on a warrant by
Justice Lyons, at the instance of Jesse Per
kinsou, a colored man from Laurens, 8. C.,
charging him with larceny after trust dele
gated.
It appears that Ralph and a couple of
associate negro sharpers discovered that
this country darkey had s2l, which he de
signed to Invest in bacen. They wanted
the greenbacks, And proposed to furnish the
meat at a low price for cash. Not sus
pecting their purpose, the country darkey
accompanied them to a back street, where
he invested his confidence and his money
in the insinuating Ralph, who was to fur
nish the meat. Os course, the temptation
was too great for the tender susceptibilities
of Ralph, who desired to act as banker for
the countryman; he vamosed with the de
posit, but failed to bring forward the
quantity of bacon paid for. Under the
warrant issued, he was arrested yesterday
morning by constable Shackelford, carried
before Justice Lyons, wheu he waived an
examination and was held to ball in the
sum of S4OO for his appearance for trial at
the January term of the Superior Court. -
A New Paper at Madison.— We have
received the prospectus of anew paper to
be established at Madison, Ga., by Dr.
Theo. Hunter, on the first of January. It
is to contain forty columns of matter, de
voted to literature, science and the arts.
Some of the best writers in the South will,
it is said, contribute to this journal. It is
to be called The Sunny Home, and will be
published as a monthly from January to
March, 1870, when it will be changed to a
weekly. Every subscriber sending in his
name between now and the Ist January
next, and the amount of subscription for
one year, as soon as he receives the first
number of the paper will receive, as a pre
mium, some one of the following articles:
A shawl, pair of blankets, quilt, silver
plated castor, pattern of French and Ger
man fancy goods, or an elegantly bound
copy of Byron or Milton in gilt. One
copy, one year, $2 50.
Closing the Market House. —We are
glad to learn that our City Fathers seriously
contemplate closing the upper entrauce of
the Lower Market.- This should be done
promptly. During the protracted dry
season just past much meat had to be
thrown away on account of the accumula
tions of dust and much eaten that was
really unfit for the table. Very soon the
Northwest blast will be upon us, aud there
is no place this side of the North Pole so
uucomfortable od a Winter morning as the
Lower Market. For the sake of buyers and
sellers, and for the good of all, wc beg that
a proper protection be promptly built at
the upper entrance of the Lower Market.—
The cost will not be great; the benefits will
bo immense. Will our City Fathers be
pleased to make a practical move in this
matter.
Rain at Last.— After a drought of five or
six weeks, in consequence of which the
surface of oar streets had become calcined
to the lightest dust imaginable,-and serious
apprehensions were indulged In several
quarters lu this section as to a supply of
water for man and beast, we were yester
day blessed with a' refreshing rain which
continued to fall gently but continuously
throughout the day. No event of recent
occurrence in this locality has caused such
general rejoicing or awakened eqfual univer
**i gratitude to that called forth by this
rain. **■

Row in a Bar-Room—One Man Shot.—
About nine o’clock Monday night, at the
bar-toom of RiChaid Frain, opposite the
Unfon Depot, a difficulty occurred between
J. A. O’Hara and Waiter Frain, in the pro
gress of which the latter received a pistol
shot wound in the thigh. Frain is said to
have shot himself in attempting to draw
his weapon, as O’Hara did not exhibit a
pistol. Frain’s wound is not considered
dangerous.
Ladies’ Furs —Mr. Christopher Gray
announces through our advertising col
umns this morning, that he is opening a
very large and extensive stock of ladies’
and misses’ furs, at prices so extremely low
as to induce all in want of such to pur
chase. Having bought them under very
peculiar circumstances, Mr. Gray is en
abled to offer such inducements.
A Wood Thief Sent Up—Yesterday
morning, Henry Thomas (colored) was ar
raigned before Justice Ells, charged with
stealing wood from Mr. John Galvan. He
was convicted, and sentenced to thirty
days on the public works. This negro was
recognized as an old offender, who has
heretofore sailed into court for his thieving
depredations under the alias oi Alfred Skin
ner. ________
River News. —The steamer Katie, in
consequence of assistance of lighters, was
enabled to get off Bugg’s Bar and reach her
wharf about 12, m., yesterday, with a full
cargo of freight from Savannah.
Notwithstanding the rain, yesterday, the
river did not indicate any rise at a late
hour in the afternoon.
For One Fare. —All persons who desire
to attend the South Carolina State Fair, at
Columbia, commencing to-day, will be
passed and returned over the South
Carolina Railroad for a single fare. All
articles designed for exhibition will be
carried over this line without charge.
Improving. —There were eleven unterri
fled voters who appeared at the registry
office yesterday, and swore themselves into
the right of suffrage at the next municipal
election.
A Good Hand on “ Fits.”— The Atlanta
Constitution says: "
“ We notice that our friend, W. A. Ram
sey, has opened a ready-made clothing store
in Augusta. If there is any subject that he
is perfectly at home on, it is that of ready
made clothing. He is a capital hand on
‘ fits.’ ”
An Atlanta Policeman Killed.—The
Era gives the following concerning the
killing of an Atlanta policeman:
“ A lamentable affair occurred in the
neighborhood of the Rolling Mill, at a
very early hour on Sunday morning, which
resulted in the death of Policeman Dan.
Rogan at the hands of William Johnson, a
man who is employed in the Rolling Mill.
We are unable to ascertain the particulars
in regard to the unfortunate affair, as there
seems to have been no witnesses to it—or
none that have yet turned up. There is
some mystery connected with it which has
not yet been divulged, and may not be.—
Rogan was on duty in the Fourth Ward
until about three o’clock op Supday morn
ing. He then went to the passenger depot,
where he was seen half an hour later, after
which time nothing more was heard of him
until Ed. Murphy was awakened and in
formed that Dan. Rogan had been killed as
above stated in Johnson’s house. Murphy
found Rogan lying on the floor of the
house, with his baton in his left hand, and
his right hand badly hart. Two bullet
holes were in his body, and he was quite
dead. The wounds on his right hand were
caused in the struggle in which Johnson
wrested his pistol from him. He was shot
with his own pistol.”
Negro Shot a** Fair Grounds.— Late
yesterday evening one of the fire engines,
driven by a negro man, halted in the main
entrance to the Grounds, and upon being
ordered by Col, Stewart, one of the Direc
tors, to move, refused, and after some fur
ther orders to get out of the way, struck
Col. 8., who promptly replied by settling a
“blue whistler” in the driver, but with
what amount of injury is unknown.

CHRISTOPHER GRAY
Begs to make known to his friends and the general public, that he has now on
hand, and making constant additions, one of the Largest, Most Varied and Best Select*
ed Stocks of DRY GOODS, for the Pall and Winter Trade of 1809, that has eve* been
offered in this vicinity.
The stock will always be found to consist of a Pull Line of all Goods to be met
with in a First Class Dry Goods House, and I pledge myself that the high reputation
the house has already attained shall be more than sustained.
Residing permanently in New York, and purchasing solely from the Manufacturers
and Agents, exclusively lor cash, with an experience extending over twenty-five years
in the Dry Goods Market, as buyer and retailer, lam confident of being able to offer
Goods, both in Styles and at Prices, which must in truth compete with any house in the
South.
An examination of Stock and Prices, by customers, cannot fail to convince them of
the truth of what I state.
