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.
