WEDNESDAY... OCTOBER 22, 1873.
MINOR TOPICS.
The San Francisco anti-Chinese pa[>ers ad
vocate forcing the Chinese to live in a quarter
liy themselves, instead of allowing them to
ovemn the whole city, as they are doing at
present. Such an isolation, the papers say. is
essential to the health an l business interests
of the city.
By a strange coincidence, the first Austrian
regiment of artillery the other day. in parading
before King Victor Emmanuel, afforded his
Majesty a near view of the very guns that were
pointed directly at him ari l his suite in the
battle of Cnstozza. upon liis showing himself
on a hillock in the battle field. Tlic regiment
retains the same guns in use.
When a rnan come* home and tries to bolt
his door with a sweet potato, pokes the fire
with the eiiout of a coffee pot. attempts to
wind up the clock with his bootjack, tries to cut
kindling wood for his morning fire with a paper
knife, takes a cold potato in hand to light him
to bed. and prefers sleeping in bis hat and
hoofs, you may reaso ably infer that he has
keen making the acquaintance of some very
friendly people.
The Treasury Department is sending ont cir
culars calling the attention of importers, ex
change dealers, and the public generally, to an
• act to establish the Custom House value of
the sovereign or pound sterling of Great
Briuin, and to fix the par of exchange." passed
in March last, and to b* proclaimed on the first
day of January next. The value of the pound
is fixed at *4 86 65-100.
Don I’iatt writes from London: “English
men here, who had opportunities of knowing,
tell ns that Minister Adams was laughed at
over London as a man who always seemed to
be smelling something bad; while Motley, our
great historian, was regarded as one much
given to English lords, and rather haughty to
his unhappy countrymen because of their hum
ble origin. Old Kcverdv Johnson, on the con
trary. was regarded with admiration, and he is
a gentleman.”
Boston continues to feel tbo effects of the
monetary stringency, and mercantile opera
tions are conducted on a limited scale. Prices
for cash, are, therefore, somewhat weak,
though not more so than might reasonably he
expected, and no permanent reductions in
leading articles are likely to result from the
panic. A hopeful feeling prevails that the
present depression will he hut temporary, and
that, as the financial situation is steadiiy im
proving. trade will soon revive and resume its
former active condition.
The New York Evening Pott says: “Colonel
Childs, President of the Carolina National
Bank at Colombia, M. C., has been in the city
several days trying to raise currenoy for the
purpose of moving tlio cotton crop, hut his
mission here, as well as in Philadelphia and
Boston, has been a failure. He proposes to
make arrangements, if | ossihle, to have gold
brought here from England, believing that the
English merchants and manufacturers will, as
soon as they appreciate the difficulty undor
which the Southern people labor, send money
•ver for the cotton.”
Whether or not the spider is to be classed
among those pests that are capableof inflicting
falal iujiirieH upon man. ha* never hoen hither
to ocmcluttiTely Mettled. Latliew are firmly con
vinced that the Hpidor i« deadly, but they al«o
entertain the Marne conviction in regard to the
harmloMM, necennary mouwe and the cheerful
June hug. Occasionally a red spot i« exhibited
on a fair arm. and the spider in charged with
having been the cauwe of it; but, mo far &m thin
prove® anything, it proveM that the injury in
flicted by a Hpider in very far from being fatal.
The question, however, haw just been finally
Mottled by the death of a man in Illinois who
wan killed by a spider- one of the heavy iron
variety--wielded by his wife, with whom he
wa« engaged in a heated argument.
Our workmen demand the eight hour law,
as they have the undoubted right to do ; but
what would they think if they wore compelled
to work for fourteen or fifteen bourn daily, as
many of the English railway servante are
compelled to do ? Recently a switch-tender on
the Northeastern Kailv ay was arrested and
tried for tlio offense of being drunk on his
post. The offense was a grave ono. and the
company requested that tlio man should be
severely punished, llut it appeared that the
company, which was thus virtuously anxious
for the exemplary punishment of the man.
had compelled him to work fourteen hours and
a half daily. Os course ho deserved punish
ment for jeopardizing the lives of hundreds of
travelers by his drunkenness; hut what pun
ishment did the company deserve which had
so inhumanly overtaxed the poor wretch’s pow
ers of endurance ?
Lexington (Va. ) Gazette: *‘Oov. Letcher
the other day related a very interesting inci
dent of the war while in Kemper’s room at the
hotel. Ho said that, in one of the battles be
low Richmond, four flag hearers hid been shot
down, and a call was made for a volunteer to
carry the colors. A strippling took the torn
standard. In a few minutes the staff wa
snapped by a shot. The boy sat down, un
loosed a shoe string, and tied it. He started in
front again. Another bullet splintered the
staff. It was then fastened by the other shoe
string. He had hardly shook the folds out a
second time, when down fell the flag, struck
by a hall. The shoe strings had given out.

oov. Letcher said: ‘When they brought me
he boy, with the shattered staff pat died up
with shoe stringajaud shirt-tail, I made him an

fount?. He was killed in battle.”
The Hon. Amasa Walker haH written a letter
upon the resumption of specie payment, in
which he cogmiends tlio plan proposed by Hena
or Sumner, in 1871. which was aH follows : 1.
That tlio Secretary of the Treasury should ho
directed to prepare compound interest notes,
payable in three years, bearing interest like
those issued during tbo war, at f> |#r cent., of
denominations suitable for circulation. Five
millions of those were to ho dated the first of
each month, and paid out for all dues of the
Government, except those payable in gold. ‘J.
They were to be convertible at the end of two
yearn into 10-40 5 per cent, bondx, at the option
of tlio holder, and to be a legal tondor. 3.
Greenbacks were to be canceled as they came
into the National Trcanury an fast as the com
pound interest notes wore issued. By this pro
cess the present circulatory notos of the Treas
ury would all be taken in and destroyed, anti
their place bo occupied by the new issue.
In Lako Maggiore lie the islands belonging
to the Borromean family, among which is
■'lsola Bella,” an enchanted ground well
worthy of (its name. Two hundred years ago
the island was a barren rock; to-day, thanks to
the freak of a spendthrift nobleman, it is “a
joy for ever." Ten terraces, built in massive
stone piers, rise out of the water; earth of suf
ficient depth to grow the largest trees was
brought there, and these many years it has
been a little forest of luxurious vegetation
from every clime. There flourish the camphor
and the indie rubber trees, the bread fruit and
the banana, the black bamboo and the Ameri
can aloe, the cedar of Lebanon, the magnolia,
the date-palm laden with fruit, and camellias
fifteen feet high. Every step brings one into
contact with new beauties, whiie statues and
wondrous works in stone mingle everywhere
with the living green, ivies, honeysuckles,
trumpet creepers, and a wealth of ferus and
creeping plants.
Hair-springs, says a writer m the Vietoria
Miigtizitu. .-re made in the factory, of finest
English steel, which comes upon (spools like
thread. To the naked eye it is as round as a
hair, but under the microscope it becomes a
flat steel ribbon. This ribbon is inserted be
tween the jaws of a fine gauge, and the dial
hand shows its diameter lo be two twenty-five
hundredths of an inch. A hair plucked from a
mans head measures three twenty-five hull- j
dredths me from the head of a little gill at a
neighboring benali. two twenty-five hundredths.
Actually, however, the finest hair is twice as
thick as the steel ribbon, for the hair com j
presses one-half between the metallic iawsofj
the gauge. A hair-spring weighs only one- I
fifteen-thousandth of a pound troy. In a !
straight line it is a foot long. With a pair of j
tweeters we draw one out in spiral form until
it is six inches long ; but it springs hack into
place, not bent a particle from its true coiling. !
Since the year I9IS. when gold was first dis
covered in California, that Stato lias produced
au aggregate of J 1.350.700,000 worth of the
precious metal. In the year named the yield
was #3.000.1100. and ill 1353. the year in which
the greatest yield occurred, the product was
$63,000,000. Between ISfiS and 1572 the aver
age annual yield was $60.1\>0.000. with no ap
preciable evidence of reduction. In Nevada,
the two great mines kuoivn as the Belcher and
the Crown Point, situated in the Comstock
lode yielded up to September Ist of this ye»r.
over $36,000,000 in gold, with a clear profit to
the stockholders in dividends of more than
J 14.000.000. The Belcher mine commenced to
yield in 1 SOS and the Crown Point in 1 369. Lur
ing last April aud May these mines produced
au average of $31,000 per day.
It is urged in defense of Jay Cooke A Co.'s
large ventures m the Northern Pacific Railroad
enterprise that the unfavorable reports of the
Vienna experts did not determine the decision
of the German capitalists who sent then, as
was shown by au offer made by those capital-
ists to Jay'Cooke A Cos., after the reports had
been duly submitted aud considered. The
strongest point in the reports was. that the
warnings of anew road of such magnitude, in
*ueh a region, would not for a long time be
sufficient to pay the interest on its bonds. In
reply it is urged that but for the United States
subsidy the case would have been tbe same
with all the other Pacific railroads; and now- it
is announced on pretty good authority that the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company will ask
Cos Ogress a* us next session to do to them as
suri-t autiaUy as it d;d to the other Pacific rail
road companies, by endorsing tbe bonds, and
thus making the Cmted States responsible for
jiaymeul of both principal and interest.
THE PORT ROYAL RAILROAD.
A flood Exhibit.
The regular quarterly meeting of the
Board of Directors of the Port Royal
Railroad was held at the office of the
company, in this city, yesterday morning.
The report of the Secretary and
Treasurer was read and received.
The report is a gratifying one and the
business done since the completion of
the roatl exceeds the most sanguine ex
pectations. Asa matter of course, the
business so far has been almost alto
gether local. Even with this, however,
the report shows that the gross earnings
of the road for the past four months
have been $62,000, while the total ex
penses, including repairing of breaks,
have been SOB,OOO. It will thus be seen
that the road has been nearly self-sus
taining, with nothing in the main but
local traffic and passengers to depend
upon. When communication is estab
lished between Port Royal and Liver
pool by steamers, the directors are confi
dent that the receipts of the road will
be at least $400,000 the first year after
that is accomplished. As we stated some
time since, the Dominion Line of steam
ers, one of the finest between the United
States and Europe, has already been se
cured to run between Port Royal and
Liverpool,and the first vessel of the line
will reach the former place early in No
vember.
When this communication is fully es
tablished and the fact made known gen
erally, there is no doubt but that the
Port Royal Railroad will become one of
the most important lines in the country.
A connecting link between the Great
West and the best port on the South
Atlantic coas’, the trade over it must
rapidly increase. Its officers are ener
getic, progressive men, and will spare
no trouble to improve the business of
the road. The exhibit made at this early
date since its full completion is hard to
surpass, especially when all the circum
stances are taken into consideration.
Don’t Blow Down the Chimney.—
The great majority of the kerosine acci
dents are undoubtedly caused by care
lessness. We are told by a gentleman
who is well informed on the subject
that it is exceedingly dangerous to put
out the flame of a kerosine lamp by
blowing down the chimney. The space
between the oil and the top of the lamp
is filled with gas, to which there is great
danger of the fire being communicated
if a puff of air is forced suddenly down
the chimney. While the light may be
put out ninety-nine times in this manner
with impunity, the hundredth may prove
fatal. The proper way to extinguish the
flame is to turn down the wick very low,
and then blow out the small light from
below the chimney. This advice, if fol
lowed, may save many accidents.
European Goods Bodoht in Savan

Savannah by a Committee of the Cham
ber of Commerce, of the amount and
kind of European goods annually sold

A Racing Anecdote.— The Syracuse
Courier is responsible for the following
anecdote: We came across an item in
the history of our rising young men,
which we hasten to embalm and put on
record. The story we heard yesterday
relates to a former crier of the courts in
this county, who is celebrated for his
forensic abilities. It so happened that
during a term of County Court there
were to be three days’ races, which the
presiding Judge was very anxious to at
tend. Ho accordingly, on the forenoon
of the day previous, when the hour
of adjournment arrived, directed our
friend to adjourn the Court. The
crier turned to the Judge and asked to
what time he would adjourn. The
Judge whispered to adjourn till after
the races, supposing the crier would
take the hint and fix the date beyond
that on which the races would terminate,
but, instead, lie answered it iu this way,
“Hear ye 1 hear ye! This court will
stand adjourned so that the Judge can
attend the races?” The effect on the
Judge can be imagined when we state
that he threw a book at the crier,
hitting him a stinging blow on the back
of the neck. Thereafter ho was very
definite in fixing the time to which the
crier should adjourn.
The Great Southern Railroad
Company.— Tlio agent of the Georgia
branch of the Great Southern Railroad
Company recently passed through
Hinesville, Liberty county, and had the
usual mortgages recorded in the coun
ties through which the proposed road
will run. The Hinesville Gazette
gathers the following interesting infor
mation in reference to the enterprise:
The company is composed entirely of
Northern men—Charles Osborne,of New
York, being the President. To obtain
the necessary funds, money to the
amount of four millions has been bor
rowed, for tbe security of which mort
gages have been given on the entire
road, with all its stock, &c.
The road is to start from Millen, No.
711, Central Railroad, and run in an air
line to .Tesup aud from thence to Jack
sonville, Florida. It will pass through
the following counties in Georgia:
Burke, Balloon, Tattnall, Liberty, Ap
pling, Wayne, Charlton and Camden.
The point at which it is to cross the Al
tarnaha will be a short distance above
Doctortown, but below the mouth of
Beard's creek.
Painful Accident.— The McDuffie
Journal, of Wednesday, says: We re
gret to state that J. H. Casey, Esq., of
this place, met with a serious accident
last week, which came very near proving
fatal. Tuesday last Mr. C., together
with several other gentlemen from Thom
son, went down near Berzelia on “a
camp hunt,” and remained several days.
In the 'chase Thursday morning, aud
while nearly at full speed, Mr. Casey's
horse stumbled and fell, throwing Mr.
C. to tbe ground aud rolling completely
over him. The horse was very large,
and heavy enough to have instantly
crushed his rider to death, and how Mr.
|C. escaped with such comparatively
' slight injury is unaccountable, though
’ it is thought that the saddle, which had
! a high pommel, alone saved him. As it
was, Mr. Casey received a painful frac
-1 ture of the right shoulder.
Another Destructive Fire— The Cen
tral Georffian, of the loth, says : “We
regret to learn that the steam saw mill,
grist mill and gin house of G. AY. Fea
eock, Esq., seven miles south of this
citv, was destroyed on Monday evening
last by fire.- Besides the building, live
bales of cotton, five hundred bushels of
cotton seed were likewise lost. The
rocks of the grist mill were burst by
the heat; the gin and the screw, besides
the lumber, were eonsnmed. We are
glad to hear, however, that the engine
was not much injured but that Mr. Pea
cock will lie able to resume sawing in a
week or ten days.”
A Liberal Contribution. The
Schuetzen Club of Augusta on yester
dav contributed the liberal sum of one
hundred and fifteen dollars for the yel
low fever sufferers—ninety for Memphis
aud twenty-five for Shreveport. The
amount for Memphis was forwarded im
mediately by Mr. H. A. Brahe, Secre
taire of the Schnetzen Club, to the Ger
man Brnderhood of that city, and that
for Shreveport to the Howard Associa
tion. This action certainly reflects
great credit upon the Club.
COTTON.
The Business of the Past Week,
While the cotton market in Augusta
during the commercial week, ending
last evening, has been weak and irregu
lar, the sales have been comparatively
large.
Ou Saturday the market was weak and
lower, with but few buyers operating in
consequence of the scarcity of currency
and the full rates asked by sellers, who
were holding at 15} to 15} for full style
of Liverpool middling, but where cash
was offered 15 cents was accepted for
the same grade.
Monday the continued absence of
money and the depressing accounts
from New York caused a further de
pression, and Liverpool middling was
quoted at 15 cents, with a weak closing
market.
Tuesday, the market opening at 15
cents, with a fair demand, ruled dull
and irregular at 14} to 15 for Liverpool
middling.
Wednesday the market was more
unsettled and prices lower, Liverpool
middling being quoted at 14} to 14j.
The demand was fair, but confined to
two or three buyers, who, to fill orders,
bought freely on the basis of the last
named figures, though in some in
stances sellers, who were anxious to dis
pose of their cotton, freely accepted 14}
At the close the market was quoted
nominal and weak at 14} to 14}.
Thursday a dullness pervaded the
market, notwithstanding the large sales.
Liverpool middling was quoted nomi
nally at 14}, and New York middling at
15. The Augusta Exchange having
made the classifications in this market
correspond with those of Charieston and
Savannah, the quotations yesterday were
made ou the basis of low middling and
New York middling. The market ruled
steady at 14} to 14} for the former, and
15 cents for the laiter grade. We heard
of one transaction where one hundred
and forty bales were sold for 13} cents
in gold—cash.
The receipts for the week were 6,653
bales, showing a decrease in corrparison
with the same week of last year of 796
bales. The sales were 4,747 bales, show
ing a decrease when compared with the
corresponding week of last year of 2,206
bales. The receipt* to date the present
season foot up 2‘2,0‘2‘2 bales; last year, to
October 18, 35,629 bales, showing a de
crease this season of 13,607 bales. The
receipts of 1872-3 exceeded 1871-2, to
this date, 13,727 bales. The shipments
during the week have been 5,592 bales;
same week last yeal , 6,781 bales. Esti
mated stock on hau and, 6,403 bales.
Wall Street All Right.
New York, October 18.—Wall street
markets olosed in a quiet manner, with
gold steady and stocks firm. The gene
ral oatlook in commercial circles is also
cheering, and a decided improvement
towards final and full recovery. Confi
dence has been made during the week.
The outlook for the coming week is,
therefore, enconmging.

COTTON REVIEW.
The want of currency hae interfered mate
rially with the cotton movement in Augusta
during the current commercial week, and pur
chases have been oonfined to a few parties
The market ha« been weak and irregular and
prices declining, owing both to this fact and
the receipt of unfavorable New York adviced.
The receipts have been quite heavy, reaching
on ono day 1,373 bales.
The Augusta Exchange, by resolution passed
Thursday afternoon, changed the classifications
of cotton to accord with the Savannah and
Charieston markets, the basis of our quotations
having hitherto been Liverpool Middling, while
in those markets it was New York Middling.
Below will he found a resume of the week’s
bo-mess:
Saturday. 11 —The market to-day has been
weak and lower with but few buyers operat
ing. they being competed to hold off in conse
quence of the scarcity of money and the full
rates asked by sellers, who were holding at
15}f®15} for Liverpool Middling: hut where
ca“h was offered, 15c. was accepted for the
same grade. The close was dull and depressed.
■Sales, 332 bales: receipts. 1,121.
Monday. 13.—The absence of currency con
tinues to seriously affect the cotton market,
and from which cause in connection with de
piessing accounts from New York a further
decline was felt yesterday, notwithstanding
the sales were quite heavy amounting in all to
955 bales. We quote Liverpool Middling at 15.
with a weak closing market. Keceipte. 683.
Tuesday. 14. —Ihe opening market was
quoted at 15 cents with a fair demand, but
soon after influenced by adverse New York ac
counts it became doll and irregular, and so
ruled throughout the day at 14}<fcl5 cents for
Liverpool Middling, and closed in that con
dition. Money was mo' e easy to-day in cot
ton circles and no difficulty was experienced in
making payments. Sales,*623; receipts, 1,273
bales.
Wednesday, 15.—The market to-day has
been mis e unsettled and prices lower. Liver
pool Middling being quoted at 14};fil4}. The
demand was fair but confined to two or three
buyers, who. to fill orders, bought freely on
the basis of the above nartied figures, though
in some instances sellers, were anxious to
dispose of their cotton, f eely accepted 14}.
At the close wo quote the market nominal and
weak at 14}@14}. Sales 958, and receipts,
1,193 bales.
Thursday, 16.—Notwithstanding the large
sales to-day a dullness pervaded the market,
which was felt on both sides in reference to
prices—Liverpool Middling being quoted nomi
nally at 141, and New Y'ork Middling at 15.
Market closed quiet and weak. Difficulty is
still experienced in money matters, but it. is
not so great as same days since. Receipts,
1,37 3 ; sales, 974.
Note —The Exchange having determined to
adopt New York Middling as the grade upon
which to base quotations, we will, in future,
quote that grade only.
Friday, 17.—The market to-day has been
steady, with a moderate demand. We quote
Middling. 15c; Low Middling, 14}<®14}. Sales,
905; receipts, 1,010.

REVIEW OF THE NSW YORK MARKET.
The market for cotton on spot and to arrive
has sold a very low figures. The decline
in gold and scarcity of currency has had a de
pressing influence, and spinners have pur- j
chased rather cautiously, though the movement j
in this direction has been fa r, au i compara- J
tively cash buyers have to take advan
tage! and in such cases conc*«»iou were read
ily Rirde. In forww i deliveries the dealings
have bean only moderate. rates b*ve con i
tinned to decline, especially on bovember and !
December deliveries. Total sale* so» the week j
were 125.01 k) bales, of which 107,6*1' were for |
future delivery, aud 11.425 for immediate de- :
livery, as follows: 7.510 for export; 4.837 for
spinners, aud 72 for speculation; included were
2,136 baies to arrive.
Naval Stores, after ruling quite firm, closed
with a declining tendency.
