Ono result, says the New Tone Sun. of put ting the worst claseof peoplo in Federal offices in the South is that general complaints are be ing made about money lost while passing through Southern mails. The meat is covered completely, in a porce lain bowl, with very hot water, and oil is then poured upon tho water. The air is thus ex cluded. and the coagulation of the albumen in the external part of tho meat doubtless aids in preserving it. “A woman can't keep a secret, hey!" ex claimed the wife of s man who had just ex pro sed his convictions on that subject : ‘ Why. Mary Sikes told mo two days ago that she s going to be married next 'unday, and I havn t even tolu you of it yet!" A commission appointed by the French Min ister of Public Works having reported favor ably upon the great scheme for connecting Engla and and France by submarine tunnel. French coal owners in the north of France are beginning to discuss the probable effect of the woik upon their trade, and are afraid that the tunnel would greatly increase the deliveries of English coal upon the northern French mar kets. The new mod . of collecting on the Hudson River Uailroad. which went into force some time ago as far up tho road as Spuyten Duval, has been extended to Poughkeepsie. Wednes day collectors meet all through trains at that depot and proceed north and south with tin m. j The conductors on these trains now simply go 1 through the cars and punch the tickets, while | the collector follows and takes them up, (lot. Thomas A. Scott having resigned the Presidency of tho Atlantic and Pacific Uailroad. the new Directors have elected Andrew Peirce 1 President and General Manager: D. I’. Garri- . son. of St Louis, Vice-President, and Clinton J(. Fisk, Treasurer. Col. Scott's reason for re- I signing grew out of tho conditions enforced j upon him by hi election to the Presidency of the Pennsylvania Uailroad—namely, to confine himself as much as [mumble to the administra tion of the latter road. Tho Saratoga correspondent of the New York Sun says that from tho best information the money lost, or won in the pools sold there j on the races during the two meetings ju-t closed will not fall much short of a million do!- j lars Five per cent, of all money paid for tickets in the French pools rebates to the as-' social ion. and th three per cent, commission I charged in the silling pools is divided he-j tween the association and Doc. Underwood, who is probably the best and most famous pool auctioneer in the world. To cut down the record onc-quarter of a second in a four mile rac- is an exceedingly delicate operation, calling for scientific accu- ] racy in every detail. Lot tts consider what ! quarter seconds are. 1 , Lexington's time 7:19} there arc exactly 1.75 ft quarter seconds. In a mile there are exactly 1.7(10 yards.— Therefore ono yard difference in tho track would account for a difference of a quarter second in the lime. The line actually run by a racer in passing other horses and getting posi tion often makes a greater difference. How is it that girls can always tell a mar ried man from a single one ? The fact is in disputable. Blackwood says that " tho fact of matrimony or bachelo ship m written ho legi bly in a mao's appearance that no ingenuity can conceal it. Everywhere there ia some in explicable instinct Ilia! ti ll us whether an individual (whose name, fortune aird circum stances aro totally unknown) ho or lie not a married man. Whether it is a certain sub dued look, such an that which characterizes the lions of a menagerie, and distinguishes them from the lords of tho desert, wo cannot tell; but tlie truth is so, we positively affirm.” lion. Marshall Jewell, late Minister to Rns sia, an 1 tho recently appointed successor to Mr. (Ire-swell, as Postmaster General, has gone to Washington to enter upon tho duties of his office In connection with this ovent, the following statistics may ho interesting : In tho decade from IHiil to 1874, tho number of letters transmitted by the United States mails, lias increased from 335,000,100 in 1804, to 900,01)0,000 in 1871 a greater increase than has ever taken place in any country during tho same long'll of time. In the first five years of the decade, the rate of increase was 50 per coni., and for the last five years it was 8') per cent. The cost or handling 502,000,000 letters in 1861, was $ 33,(193, MM), and the cost of 900,- 000,0000 for tho year ending June 30, 1874, was about. $34,000,000. This shows that an in crease of 80 per cent, in tho amount of busi ness has increased the expenditures of the department 44 per oelit, In 1808, tho annual deficit was $6,437,000; in 1873, it was $6,180,000. Tho Hocrotaiy of tho Immigration Board at New York estimates a falling off of about fifty per cent, llii year from last. Immigrants have been so large a factor in tho growth and progress of this country, t liar the reason for this decrease becomes an interesting problem. A partial explanation may bo found in last year's panic. Perhaps half tho foreign horn that roadi our shores in ordinary years, do so on passage money advanced by friends who have preceded them. Last Fall and Winter thousands of industrious naturalized citizons were thrown out of employment for months. They found il difficult enough to support them selves and families, without saving anything o help friends ami relatives across tho briny deep. Aside from this explanation for tho sudden decrease this year, it must bo confessed ■ that the condition of the poorest classes in (treat Britain and Ireland is ameliorating every year, while in this country it daily becomes worse. If this double process continues at tho present rate for (he coming decade, America will possess no attractions for tho foreigner, and all immigration will cease. Under a rooont decision of \ttorney-Gcnoral Williams, a 1 i*i>.7-i-l acros of public land, grant ed to several railroad companies, revert to the Government- by the conditions on which the grants were made. In this opinion the Attor nev-Gonoral reverses tlie rulings that formerly prevailed in the I.and Office, to the effect that land once granted to railroad companies could not revert to tho Government except by some special legislation on the part of Congress, The lands referred to lie in Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Texas and Michigan. They will now he open to settlement, subject to tho usual conditions of tho General Land Office. The taste of the Parisians shows itself in tho very smallest things. A student of shop win dows -especially if he comes from America— will find lus ideas considerably enlarged, and his taste improved as ho walks along the streets. Ho has been accustomed to dirty win dows, and a promiscuous collection of stale fruit, peaches in fly-blown bottles, preserves in coarse jars, with game, brooms, raw meat, veg etables, all jumbled together without order, as if they had been thrown from a pitchfork. Over the water the w indows arc clean and wide. In them are groups of game, arranged as Land seer would have loved to paint them. Syrups and jellies are in decorated glasses; a grotto of rock work, with a tiny fountain, keeps fresh the tisli; on the other side are fruits in pyra mids and artistic array, piled up with an eve to contrast Nowhere is there a trace of dirt or grease; the odor of the store is fresh and pure everything is inviting, flushing repulsive. A Parisian who saw our bloody meat counters would tliiuk that an American ate like a wild beast. And it must he confessed that there would ho some reason for tho impression.— Italtimor* GaietU'. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Kn ;uirrr. a he has ‘ seen the "quinine douche" recommended by ‘ -is Ju n-fuil used to the great relief of the sufferer. This is what Appleton's Journal < said about it : “A valuable contribution to the discussion on tho germ-theory of disease is 1 made by Professor Biuz, of Bonn. On invos- , tigating into tho nature and true cause of the j hay fever, he discovered vegetable organisms i iu the nasal secretions, which wore never j present save during an attack of the disease 1 By using a neutral solution of sulphate of j quinine, applied with a asal douche, tho ani- ; malenhe were completely destroyed. In addi tion to the scientific value *f this fact, the simplicity of the remedy will commend it To , those who arc afflicted with this annoying com plaint." General Gram has been absent from the ' seat of Government since the adjournra- nt of Congress, in June. and he now announces his j intention to remain at Long Branch until about the first of October, f It is well that lie does i not read the papers this Summer, or he would get some advice that is more pertinent than ; palatable. The Etuning Post. for instance, suggests that it would be seemly in the Piesi dent to pay more att union to hi> duties. It cannot perceive that tho conduct of tho Chief Kxecutivo and some of his Cabinet, iu letting the public business go to the dogs, while they are off frolicking around the cou; try, ' attains fully to the measure of a just regard for the i unties which their public positions place upon I them. The Post characterizes as "a very un fortunate condition of affairs" the necessity tlic Secretary of the Treasury is under to make the journey to Long Branch or some other junk eting place, whenever he wishes to consult tho * President in matters of public moment. The Boston Adsertiser. desiring to place as little re- | striction as possible upon the horse-racing, frolicking, aid the oilier diversions of the Bummer capital that accord so fully with the , natural tastes of the President, proposes he i shall return to Washington at least once a fort night during the recess of Congress for the purpose of holding Cabinet meetings. The Post supplements the suggestion with the re mark that this observance by the President of of his official duties "would not lead a foreign Minister—a stranger in this country—to ask where the seat of the Federal Government is. It would tend to reduce to tolerable propor tions the evils of 'absenteeism' which, as a system, is growing altogether too large for de cency or safety.” But why should these pa pers lecture the President ?

The Convention then adjourned to meet in Augusta on the fourth Wednes day in February, 1875. An Interesting Law Suit.— The At lanta News, of Thursday, says : A few days since Dr. E. J. Palmer brought suit in Justice Walker’s court against one Heath for services rendered iu a recent attack of sickness. Mr. Heath thought the bill exorbitant, and hence the suit. The trail developed the fact that Dr. Palmer did not have a diploma, but a certificate from one of the profes sors of the Jeffersonian University, stating that the doctor did graduate iu that school in 1838. The attorney for tlie defense admitted that the doctor was a graduate of the school he claims for his Alma Mater, but moved a non-suit on the ground that he was not practicing medicine in con formity with the laws of the State of Georgia, and the law requiring all phy sicians to possess diplomas from Geor gia schools, legally charactered, or a license from one of the two examining boards. Tho court held that the motion was a good one, and dismissed the suit at the doctor’s cost. If it is not, it may as well be under stood, for such is the law, that physi cians who are not exempt by virtue of having been in practice in Georgia since July, 1847, or since 18(11, must, unless they have graduated since the 7th Feb ruary, 1874, have certificates of qualifi cation from the board of the school to which they belong. Otherwise, they are subject to indictment, and, if found guilty, to 8500 find and six months’ labor in the chain gang. The very moment any person, no matter who, white or black, male or female, crosses the threshold of a sick person’s cham ber to administer physic, or do any other thing connected with the healing art for any kind of reward, the law is infracted and the penalty attaches. We imagine our solicitors w ill have a liv y time some of these days gathering the runaway violators of the law up. We have thought proper to say this much. Dr. Palmer’s case is|a straw,and it shows which wav the wind blows. Interesting to Ladies. —A fashion corr. spo nleut, writing from Paris, says that the polonaise is to be definitely abandoned as a part of indoor costume, or of a silk suit, and is only to be worn in heavy materials, such as velvet and cloth. In velvet the polonaises are to be male very long and looped slightly at one side, the looping to be caught up with a b ickle and bow of ribbon. Bon nets are to be worn rather larger, and trimmed with a profusion of i jwers; a wreath, placed inside the brim instead of around the crown, will be the most marked innovation. The qr lion of strings or no strings has b. , left in abeyance and probably will be settled later in the season by the fair wearers themselves. Some effort has been made here to introduce boots of buff and g y lipen to be worn with dresses of je same shade, but the effect is bad, r ,and the articles unbecoming. Natural flow ers are much worn at one side of the waist, and arranged in the following manner : A small bouquet is placed in a tiny glass holder containing a few drops of water, which is then concealed in the folds of the sash. Jes So. —The Columbus Enquirer says : “The Mayor's is one of the public courts of the country, and a good many subscribers pay for a newspaper to learn all that is transpiring in such courts. Men get drunk, commit flagrant viola tions of the law. are tried publicly, and then beg reporters to leave their names out of the published record. We have hitherto complied with these requests the tirst offense, but we are getting weary of them. Why do not men have respect for themselves, obey the laws, and give no cause for an arrest ? The newspaper should be a conservator of morals, and we find that the violators of our city ordinances, if they have any respect for themselves, fear more the newspaper publication than tl*ey do the punishment imposed by law. This is true, and reporters prevent disorders when they give to the world the pro ceedings of our courts. They do good for society. Let any one stay in an of fice two weeks and he will become utter ly weary of this begging of. Why can’t the parties be orderly as gentlemen shonld ? If i! ey go on with open eyes they deserve punishment.” Local and Business Notices. A:: Entebpkisdi-g Savannah Fium.— In the proper column will be fouud the card of Messrs. L. J.

Weekly Review of Augusta .Market. Augusta, Ga.. Friday Afternoon, 1 August 2s. 1874. j The Situation of Trade. With a sigh of relief, our mercantile com munity bids August and the las: month of Sum mer good-bye. it has been mai l:ed through out with excessive dullness, embarrassment, unrelieved by scarcely one realized hope. Here as well as in all other markets of the Southern States profits upou sales have uot reached expenses of hou-es. Every branch of mercantile business, manufactures, transporta tion, together with every species of handicraft, have languished for want of patronage. The only matter for congratulation is that this lethargy and stagnation has not increased indi vidual indebtedness, for the main reason, hardly any one had enough credit to get ac commodations. We enter the first of September, tlie first mouth of our business season, with buoyant hopes for the immediate future. This is based upon the general condition of the country, which is. plauters as a general rule, have kept out of extraordinary debt during the past planting season. Hardly one can be named who has overdrawn the gross aggregate value of his cottou, while others have not drawn over fifty per cent . and the great body who have demanded advances at all have not taken over twenty-five. There are this year more who have not borrowed any money at all than any year since the war. The grain crop being a large one. the foreign demand for that costly article will he small the coming year. The general situation of the country, therefore, au gurs that the next will be a far better year than the past. We will enter upon the mer cantile year with assets far overbalanc ng lia bilities. with full granaries, a fair cotton crop, and less debts than are usuually overhanging us all. For this state of affairs we owe thanks to the planters, who have almost totally revo lutionized the system which they pursued of planting all cotton and no com until it brought the whole State of Georgia to the very verge of bankruptcy, and threatened to involve everything in one common min. They pur sued this folly until their factors and merchants had nothing left to advance them, and left the direct alternative, make bread at home or do without it. And this year they have made an earnest effort to do so, aud it is indeed gratify ing to know that they have succeeded in se curing enough to supply their demands until a new crop is made. Os course these remarks are intended to apply to the whole State, and not to isolated individuals aud localities. Review of the Week. The money market is as stagnant as it can well be. The hanks uniformly report that they are drained quite as dry as prudence will ad mit. They have extended, and are not ex tending to-day any accommodations which can be avoided, allowing almost every opportunity to pass to make loans upon the very host paper in town. It is supposed that they will procure enough to move the cotton crop when tho time comes, but even here difficulties are antici pated. But money for this specific purpose will of course como from some source or other, for cotton is demanded by the whole world, and there is money in this world, and a plenty of it. The Dry Goods Trade. During the week representatives from nearly all of our groat houses have gone North to pur chase Fall and Winter stocks. Whilst antici pating a fine season, facilities for rapid transit are now so perfeet that the extent of immediate purchases will be determined strictly by the amount of supply and the indications of the future for each given article. Full supplies •vill only be bought iu a few specific articles not subjected to extraordinary fluctuations. By reference to tlie quotations below it will ho seen that prices of nearly every grade of cotton goods have been lowered. They are in sympathy with tlie new crop of cotton, aud still further reductions, whilst not wholly expect ed, would create no surprise. The Augusta manufactuied grades are without change, but tho market is totally without animation. Gold and Silver, In the important, although almost wholly ob solete matter of coin, the Augusta market is a standing committee of ono. and consistently makes the same uniform report from week to week, month to month, as follows; Gold. —Buying, 108 ; selling at 110. Silver.— buying, 102 ; selling at 105. New York Exchange— J prem. Stocks and Bonds. As is always tho case when Stocks and Bonds are prostrated by the misfortunes of a country, many people are found with money to invest in them. It is no exception now* and hence there is a daily demand for the better grades of these Securities. During the week the Georgia Railroad Slock has declined from 81 to 80@80A. Central declined from 65 to 60@62; Georgia Railroad Bonds from 95 to 90(&92. and the Maeou and Augusta, endorsed by the Geor gia Bonds, from 90 to 88. Tho balance remain as quoted last week. Atlanta 7’s have gone ofi from 77 to 70. In Augusta Factory Stock the extraordinary reduc tion of from 170 to 150 is noted. The Stock of the Merchants and Planters Bank is reduced by striking off the outside figure in last week’s quotation, which was 92} to 95. We have no other changes to make under this head.

The Cotton Market. It is now virtually the first day of September, and yet ten bales of new cotton would cover the receipts of tho now crop to date. Tho sea son is fully two weeks late, with indications that planters will hold hack the hulk of the crop much later than when under pressure of debt.

Bacon.—During the week Bacon has been more or less excited in all the markets in the United States. Jui Baltimore and Louisville an advance of fully 1 cent Las been established, whilst in Augusta the response has not gone beyond }. and barely that. With no confidence in the present rates, onr merchants have al lowed their stocks to nearly rnn out. preferring to step entirely out to dealing in an article promising no profit if not a positive loss. Au gusta usually sells more Bacon in one day than the gross amount now in town. We quote: Clear Sides, 14}: Clear Ribbed Sides, 14} : Shoul ders. 11}.

Hucksters insist tiiat articles in their line are very scarce, and that producers demand the highest prices. Green Moats at the Butcher’s stall remain the same, hut Chickens have ad vanced, so that 35 and 40 cents is demanded for frying s ze. This is. perhaps, tlio difficult di vision of our market to review, for the reason that hardly the dealers are agreed, but as the following is nearly correct: Apples—green, per bushol, 75; Butter, por lb., 30(635; Beeswax, per lb., 25; Beans, per bushel, §3 00; Beef—loin, per lb., 15; Roast, per lb., 15; choice Steaks, per lb., 15; Cabbage, per dozen. 23 50; Canteloupes, 10; Chickoirs—Spring, 35(6.40 ; grown, 50; Ducks, 30; Eggs, per dozen, 25; Green Corn, per doz., 20; Honey, strained, per lb., 20; Irish Pota toes, per bushel, 22 50; Mutton, per pound, 15; Milk, per gallon, 40; Onions, dry, per bushel, 23 00; Pork, per boghead, 8; Peaches, per dozen, 10; Tomatoes, per bushel, §1; Veal, per pound, 20: Watermelons. 10@25.

COTTON REVIEW. The New York Cotton market has been rather more active than the previous week, and values are } higher. This improvement, however, may be attributed to manipulation of speculation by Bulls, who were confident that bhort interest was quite large aud liberal buying to cover im parted strong tone to market. So far as the movement in spot Cotton is concerned, there has been no improvement to speak of, as ex porters have not been in market, and the call from spinners has been confined to small lots, which were actually needed to keep them run ning. Liverpool advices have somewhat fa vored an upward movement, bnt the advance was influenced by speculators, who take advan tage of every little circumstance either to Bull or Bear the market, as best suits their interest. Total sales of the week were 166,664 hales, of which 158,000 were on contracts aud 8,604 for immediate delivery, chiefly to spinners. Naval stores took a slight upward turn in consequence of fire at Wilmington. Memphis, Angust 29, p. m.—Cotton quiet and weak—Low Middling, 15}®15}: net re ceipts, 184; shipments, 478; stock, 6,087. rS «-w A(1 vorliNomont«.
