fgftmicie-ans gnuiiytl WEDNESDAY... .OOTOBEB I4 WH. MINOR TOPICS. i Thar* is * paragraph going th* rtroadi which •aya that a shower of pismires reasntiy f*U npon SC Look. Th* envy and rage that this information will stir up in the breast of the riral oity of Chicago are things which this pen has not th* hardihood to undertake to de acribe. oT>anter seems to be getting “desperately short in Wisconsin. In choosing delegates to the Republican State Convention, the Bepobli cana of one loan instructed them to vote against all attempts either to secure an in dorsement of Senator Carpenter or to make him a candidate of t' e party for re-election. In another town, wht-re there were fifteen dele gatee chosen, nine were pledged to oppose Carpenter every time. Another victim. . Mr. W.*E. Arthur, of the Sixth Kentucky District, distinguished him self in the last Congress principally by pocket ing lus back pay. His couetitneuta intimated pretty strongly that they sent him to Washing ton for better purposes, and he his declined to be a candidate for re-election. He has many companions in his misery, and if other con stituents do their duty, he will have many more. At Chicago, on the side tracks of the Micki oan Southern, I'ittebnrg and Fort Wayne, and hock Island Kail ways'; Just south of the south era limits of that city, theie are said to be more than five miles of unemployed freight cars, which have et od there for more than a month. There will probably be fall employ ment, however, for tbsse “active voida” ore long, as the canal and river transportation will soon be at an end, when the grain wdl have to take to the railroads; so what is lost now by enforced idleness, it is reasonable to assume, will be made up as the reason moves on. We sometimes have remarked Hie queer con junction of names in the marriage list of Amer ican papers. In the West they seem to make it a business to hunt such names out and make rhymes upon them. Abroad, too, the marriage relation finds at Ur very beginning frequently an appropriate association. For instance, on an average there are 769 mar riages per week in Paris aid about 35 separa tions. Among the former occur some curious coincidences, which to b* appreciated may be thus translated: Mile. Death is united to M. Departed; M. Drum to Mile. Trumpet; Mile. Oaiter to M. l’antaleou. and M. Boaster to Mile. Boiler. Speech by a colored statesman of Month Carolina: “Mists Chunnan, I can't help cus sin', buterbeilmi ef things ain't milt, and the Kippnkhkanparty is gwine to de devil. Dar's Gnvtier Moses a-raisin’ bonds and pothecarin ov’em an den giftin'money, and puttin’ of it -in his picket. I don't liko this pothecary biz neas nohow, an' 'special when it comes to mun ny natters. Now Otlvner Moseß heap better ship pothecaryin dem bonds, an’ leave ’em in As safe, whar dey won't do nobody any harm; an' I repeats, I can't help cussin', buteibedam ef things ain't mixt, and de ltippublikan party is gwine to the devil pretty fast enough.” The New Orleans Picayune explains Auditor Clinton’s recently published statement that “in the two years' administration of Governor Kellogg the bonded debt of the State has been reduced nearly half a million, and the floating debt 4J.250,000," and that “tho present year's taxes are thirty two per cent, less than for tho three previous years," by sating that tho “re duction" of the bonded debt has been at best only a kind of funding ; that instead of a de crease of tho floating debt it has been increased $570,000 by tho issue of fraudulent bonds to the North Louisiana Railroad, and that the re duction of taxes was accomplished tty simply repudiating forty per cent, of the legal and valid debt of the Htate. A lunatic has just died in an asylum in Fiance whose distemper had a very singular origin. His name was Justin. He was a wax figure maker and had an exhibition of wax works at Montiotigo. He fell iu love with ono of his figures. It was that of a girl. Ho called her Elias. Be sat for hours contemplating the figure until it became to him a living reality. He loved Eliza and neglocte# his wife’. His business left him in the shadow of his in fatuation. His family starved, One day his wife, in a fit of rage and desperation and jeal ously. destroyed the figure of Eliza. Justin tried to kill his wife with a broomstick, and would have succeeded liad not tho neighbors interfered. The man after this became dan gerous, mid was put in a lunatic asylum, where he continued to love Eliza for five years and then died. Pygmalion over again, A couple of citizens of Bridgeport, Connecti cut, attempted to make a voyage to New Lon don in mi open boat drawn by a kite of large props miens. Tho wind being high, they made great speed, but tho water beiug also rough they oame very near being swamped twice. Apprehensive that they might not escape a third and more serious mishap, they abandoned their voyage mid returned home. Frequent attempts, both on water and on land, have been made to use the kite as a propelling power, but the very instability of the wind makes alt such experiments futile. If the wind could bo relied on to remain steady to one course as long as needed and to change to an other when the course lay in a different direc tion, something practicable might be accom plished. But as it " blowetli where it listetli" it is as foolhardy to go to soa in an open boat with a kite for a motive power, as it was for tho three wise men of Gotham to go to sea iu tbowl. Colorado lias found the right man, and if it will only put him iu the right pace all will he right in Colorado. Ho anrouuccs himself as a candidate for Congress in tho following pithy paragraph : “I promise to have a switch put in at tho county seat iu fifteen minutes after my election ; I promise to unravel the Boeclier mystery; I pledge myself to produce rain whenever needed, thereby avoiding the neces sity of irrigation ; I will banish the grasshop pers from our land, and render this Eldorado of the West a Garden of Eden ; I will work for nothing and board myself. Have pity on an orphan forty-two years old, and elect tho un designed to a Beat in Congress. Fluke M&- gildor." Fluke’s promises to his constituents are marked by the average honesty, and his opportunities for redoemiug thorn are doubt less as good a-* candidates' generally are. He ia a promising political! and Colorado ought to try him. All Government clerks are advised to take warning by the example of John D. Wilson, who entered tho Pension Office as a clerk in 1832, and stayed there forty-two years, with bat sevouteon days loavo of absence during the whole 6f that time. Ho began by adjust ing the revolutionary pension claims and did an enormous amount of important work, in volving nearly all the responsibility of the pen sion bureau, and at clerk’s wages. He posses sed aiul exhibited all the qualities that combine to make a successful business man or mer chant, and yet having sought and accepted a clerk's position under the Goverumeut in liis youth he was buried in the clerkship for life. The bureau was his coffin, until anew one was made for lnm a few weeks ago when he de parted this life, a poor man, leaving a poor family. Ho got into the rut of public work wfiau a young man. and was hopelessly a Gov ernment clerk for life. It was little better than a State prison. A story reached us from Detroit of a sad eyed boy “with dirt on his chin and a tear on his nose." vrlio went into a Detroit police sta tion. and, having stated that he was a Home less Waif, asked humbly to be sent into the State Reform School. Wouldn't he prefer to go to the Workhouse? Ouo! he hail a brother in the Reform School, and he would like to be with liis dear brother. Still, he didu't want to •go out and steal something to qualify himself “ for the school. This touched the heart of a gentleman present, who, after consulting the Sergeant, eaid: “I guess we can fix it. my dear boy. lam going to leave my wallet on the desk, and the Sergeant and I will go up stairs. If you take the wallet it will be steal ing. and then you be sent to the Reform Scool. as you wish." So the wallet was deposit ed on the desk, the men went up stairs, and when they came down, not only was the prop erty gone, hut “the boy, O where was he ?" Alas! he had bettered his distractions and vamoosed the ranch of justice, leaving the owner of the pocket-book a wiser man by about $6 worth. Singularly enough, the boy hssn’i yet come back to be sentenced and sent to the school. Fora fend of the old-fashioned Kentucky sort commend ns to Breathitt county in that State, where the Littles and the Cockrells are turning cremation up side down in an attempt al mutual extermination. It began by a raid on a watermelon patch that was compromised I by the payment of fifteen dollars, from which j it may be inferred that nobody by the name of Tilton had anything to do with it. But either i because the injured party wanted more, or be cause the memory of his stolen watermelons rankledVithin him, a quarrel arose, and a Cockrell -was killed. Soon another quarrel, and another Cockrell was dispatched to the land of shadows in company with a Jett, one of a family allied to the Cockrfells. So far the Littles, who must make lively neighbors, had come off unhurt, but this time Jerry Little, the njaster spirit of the clan, was the recipient of a fabulous number of buckshot He was obstinate enough to recover and enterprising enough to organize a force of fnen. and is now making things warm for the Cockrells and Jetts. The mountain passes are guarded by armed pickets, and people are shot promptly on sight. The county rests under such a reign of terror, if our informant speaks truly, that doctors dare not visit the houses of wounded men, and tho letter giving these particulars was carried out of the county by a friend of the writer, to be mailed beyond reach of harm. All the parties to the vendetta “are Democrats,” says the writer, “and all members of the same religious denomination." These facts will doubtless restrain President Grant in any pur pose he may hare formed of sending Federal troops to the scene of this w atermelon war. THB ELECTION, Official* Returns of Richmond County. The managers of the city polls and the precincts in the country, met at the City Hall yesterday at 12 o’clock, and consolidated the returns of the election for members of the Legislature.

Death of Col. James Gardner.— Col. James Gardner, for many years editor and proprietor of the Augusta Constitutionalist, died at 6 o’clock, yesterday morning, at his residence, near the city, of inflammation of the bowels, after an illness of about four weeks. Col. Gardner was born in this city in the early part of the year 1813, and was consequently in the sixty-second year of his age at the time of his death. He stndied law with Judge Wm. T. Gonld, and was early in life admitted to the bar. In 1840 he was elected Solicitor- General of the Jndicial Circuit in which Richmond connty was embraced. On the 12th of June, 1845, CoL Gardner purchased the Constitutionalist from Mr. P. C. Gieti, and assumed control as editor. This position he filled uninter ruptedly for twenty years, during which period he was the acknowledged leading Democratic editor in Georgia. He wielded a powerful influence in the poli tics of the State, and when the Demo cratic Gubernatorial Nominating Con vention assembled in 1857 he was by far the most prominent man in the State for the position. His name was pnt forward in the Convention and ballotted for during a considerable length of time. He received a majority on every ballot, but the two-thirds rule having been adopted by tho Convention, it became apparent that he could not be nomina ted, and Joseph E. Brown was, there- selected as a compromise candi date. Daring the war Col. Gardner was an ardent defender of Southern rights. Soon after its close he went to New York and entered into business with Mr. Hoyt, under the .firm name of Hoyt & Gardner. In 1871 the copartnership was dissolved, and Col. Gardner again assr.med control of the Constitutionalist, then owned by Stockton & Cos., as its editor. He continued in this position until the suspension of the Constitution alist, in 1873. In June, 1871, he re sumed the practice of law, and entered into copartnership with Judge Hook, which was dissolved previous to the sus pension of the Constitutionalist. After the suspension Col. Gardner devoted himself to planting. Nearly a month since he was taken sick, and from that time was confined to his residence. For several days before bis death he appear ed to be conscious that liis end was drawing near, and faced the conviction with the fortitude which he possess'ed in an eminent degree. Col. Gardner was a brilliant writer, and, when in the full vigo of big intel lectual power, was known North and South as one of the ablest editors of the day. He possessed the confidence and esteem of a host of friends, and goes down to liis grave regretted by the entire community. Police Statistics.—We have been furnished by Sergeant Wheeler, of the police force, with the following statis tics of the number of arrests made by the police force of the city of Augusta for the year ending October Ist, 1874:, and crimes committed : Violation of the Ist section 38tli chap ter of the City Code, 5; violation of the 9th section 38th chapter of the City Code, 17; violation of 18th section 38th chapter of the City Code, 1,339; simple larceny, 209; gambling, 21; vagrancy, 83; suspicious characters, 71; burglary at night, 14; indecency, 5; malicious mischief, 8; crazy, 7; highway robbery, 1; deserters from U.

The work is under tho superintendence of Mr. Barrick. Several frame buildings, neat and sub stantial, are nearly completed on Walker street, between Centre and Washington. A brick dwelling is iu course of con struction on tho corner of Walker and Centre streets—-Mr. Barrick, contractor. A brick dwelling is in process of erec tion on Greene, street, near Elbert—Mr. Rutherford, contractor. The erection of a brick dwelling is soon to be commenced on Telfair street, near Centre. Several wooden houses on Broad street—south side—near the Upper Mar ket, are receiving great improvements. A neat and substantial cottage has just been completed on Greene street— north side—above Cumming. Several neat cottages have recently been erected on Elbert street, near Wat kins. A number of. small houses are in course of construction in tho suburbs of the ci*y. The Enforcement Act.— We stated some time since that Mr. Simeon Mor ris, of Thomson, McDuffie connty, had been arrested and brought to the city at the instance of one Jas. W. Tucker, on the charge of violating the Enforce ment Act, and gave bond .before United States Commissioner W. M. Moore. Yes terday Mr. Ootavus Morris, charged with the same offense, came voluntarily" to the city, and will give bond before the Commissioner for his apfpearance at tho next term of the United States Court. Mr. Jos. W. Judkins, the United States Deputy Marshal, has shown great kindness towards the accused par ties, who fully appreciate the courtesy. We understand that Mr. Tucker is de sirous of dropping the prosecution. Ose-Legged Breeches.—A. one-leg ged soldier, walking up the Bowery, was accosted by a clothing merchant with the usual “Sell you sometings to-day?” Entering the store, the veteran was in vited to inspect the large stock, but hav ing looked through the array* of. coats and vests and trowsers, he turned to go, saying that he saw nothing there that, would suit him. “Yell, vat you vants?” “I want a pair of one-legged panta loons.” “Vas dat all ? Yaeob, bring me one of dem one-legged gray‘pants on dat pile in de corner.” In a few min utes Jacob returned, and reported that the hist pair had been sold. Meanwhile, the partner next door, whp had been listening through the thin partition, had mapped out a plan of campaign against the one-legged cripple. “Yohn,” he whispered to an attendant, “Cut me off de leg of one of dem gray pants. Send him up, quick !” By the time this had been done the soldier had hobbled out of the first store only to be inveigled into the sec ond. Again he went through the in spection of odds and 'ends, -and again demanded one-legged trowsers, hinting that he didn’t believe the trader had them. “Not haf one legged pants! Eadder Moses, vot you takes me for ? Yohn, bring me one of dem one-legged j gray pants in dat pile in de hack qf de i shtore.” The newly-altered trowsers were produced, and the waggish soldier i gave himself up as lost. Bnt as he j spread them before him, he became con scious, as did the dealer, of so. ething wrong. “Mein Gott! Fadder A ] ah am ! Yohn, you haf ruin me ! You I if cut off de wrong leg!” The Duke of Liecester is dead. The two mile single scull race on Charles river, for the championship of New England, between Thomas C. Bnt ler and F. A. Plaisted, -was won easily by the latter by four lengths. Time, 15 minutes 45) seconds. In the Baltimore Circuit Court at Towsontown yesterday, in the case of Samuel McDonald, on trial for the mur der Berry Amos, the jury, after being out since Friday afternoon, brought in a verdict of not guilty. At Bridgeport, Ct., the coroner’s jury concluded the inquest on the body of Ellen Luces, which was found in a small stream of water on the 3d, and rendered a verdict that the deceased came to her death at. the hands of Jas. E. Latetin : who was seen with her previous to the mnrder, and who was arrested shortly .after. Local and Business Woticos. MERCANTILE PRINTING AND BINDING.

The Best Season. —The Fall season has commenced in earnest, not only for general merchandise, but especially for tickets for the next and last Grand Gift Concert of the PublicXibrary of Ken tucky. As the 30th of November (the day of the drawing) approaches, the de mand for tickets swells, and swells till it rushes on like a mountain torrent, and threatens to exhaust the supply long before the day of the drawing. Every body knows this is the last Concert, and that the scheme offered is more inviting than any ever offered in the world be fore; that there is 82,500,000 to be di vided among the ticket-holders in 20,000 prizes, and that there is one prize to every five tickets. This makes a very busy season. Tickets for sale at the Augusta Hotel, Augusta, Ga. Dyspepsia or Indigestion Head ache, Pam in the Shoulders, Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Billious Attacks, Palpitation of the Heart, Pain in the region of the Kidneys, Tightness of the Chest, Despondency and Gloom, and Forebodings of Evil, 'are all the off springs of Dyspepsia. For these com plaints Dr. Ten’s Liver Pills have no equal. A single dose will convince any one. “The Life of the Flesh is the Blood.” —This is an admitted fact. It is obvious that when the blood becomes corrupt the whole system is corrupt also, and those organs which are weaker from functional derangement will suffer most. The large majority of female diseases proceed frpm this cause. The trne poli cy is to direct the remedy to-the source of the disease. It is in this way that Dr. Tutt’s Sarsaparilla and Queen’s Delight acts. Its specific effect is on the blood. It purifies, vitalizes it, ex pelling all distemper from the system. sep22-tuthsa&w BUILDING UP THE WEAK. FEEBLE CONSHTUTIONS CANNOT BE physicked into health and strength. Invigora tio:i io be permanent and complete must be effected by establishing a regular and harmo nious action of the various bodily organs. Dosing will not accomplish this; but Hostet ter’s Stomach Bitters will. That admirable tonic and corrective regulates at the same time that it strengthens tho stomach, liver and bowels, and while imparting vigor to the entire physique, purifies and enriches the blood. A good appetite, tranquil sleep, sound digestion, and a regular habit of body—four grand essen tials of health—are promoted by its use. It vitalizes, tranquilizes and equalizes. By a successful chemical combinatiou of tonic, ape rient and anti-bilious vegetable ingredients, held in solution and diffused through the sys tem by a wholesome and agreeable stimulant, It is enabled to' beneficially affect the' various abdominal organs at one and the same time. ocß-thatuAw The bar room remedy for all ailments is rum bitters, surcharged with fusel oil, a deadly element, rendered more active by the pungent astringents with which it is combined. If your stomach is weak and liver or bowels disordered, strengthen and regulate them with Vinegar Bitters, a purely vegetable alterative and ape-, rient, free from alcohol and capable of infusing new vitality into yonrexhausted system. sep2s-df&w4w Special Notices.

NO ONE QUESTIONS THE FACT THAT MORE cases of whites, Suppressed and irregular mei ses and uterine obstructions, of every kind, are being da cured by Dr. J.

Ga., Fbipat Afternoon, 1 October 9, 1874. j The Coarse and Situation of Trade. The week has fused without any ‘‘dramatic sitnatipns" in any particular article except Bacon and Bulk Meats. They have been on the down grade, and continue so at the mo ment of making up oar weekly review. The amount of transactions in everything has been greater than the corresponding week, particularly so in Provisionsand Dry Goods. We report trade active and the demand for all leading articles steady, and that in the majori ty of sales the cash has been paid Stocks of western produce, with the excep tion of grain, are now much heavier than a week ago. Cotton has been pooling into this market in a steady stream, a large per cent of it turned into money and in turn passed ovtr onr counters for merchandise. Our Fall trade, when we compare it with the dull Summer, has been so far quite satisfac tory. Working upou small margins our mer chants have folly held all the trade which is naturally there. The stocks of general New York and Balti more groceries. Coffees and Sugars have been increased, and there is plenty on hand to sup ply presentßDd prospective demand. Competi tion is so great that our market offers extra ordinary attractions in almost every stand ird article. Our lines of communication are now so perfect and transit so rapid, that • quick sales and small profits" is an expression which means something more than it used to. Financial Review of the Week. By the statements published yesterday it will be seen that our Banks ho’d less surplus money than was supposed, less than the easy condition of the general market would lead one to think they held. Our merchants report orally in their financial condition a great deal more satisfactory than four weeks ago. But it would seem that very little of the large amount of currency which has been received from the sales of Cotton has so far found its way into our banking institutions. Rates of Interest. The rates of intereet now charged are: Short dates 13 to 15 percent, perannum. Long 18. First class paper is the only kind m re quest. In order to obtain money good collat erals are imperatively demanded, and will be until money is a great deal easier than at pres ent. Stocks and Bonds. There is very little money as yet seeking in vestment in Stocks and Bonds. The market for everything during the week has scarcely lisen more than nominal. We make several important changes_in the quotations following. The Dry Goods Situation. Trade has greatly improved eince our last report. The partial stopping of Northern mills has had a direct effect upon Cotton Goods in that it has made them stronger. They have remained very steady since last w eek, and al though firm at tho quotations no advance has been established. Dealers anticipate a rise in prints, brown and bleached goods, and hence are refusing to make any great concessions no matter what may be the quantities asked for. They now have more confidence than any time during the last eight weeks. Thanks to high protective tariffs, consumers in this country have not the privilege of buying English goods at living rates, or else, as low as calicoes and sheetings are now they would be lower still, or at least would be held down at the present rates. The stocks held in Augusta are ample to supply the demand. The Fall and Winter trade for gents clothing has not opened hardly. The weather continues so pleasant that people have not thrown off their Summer clothes alto gether. ... Gold, Silver and New York Exchange. Gold. —Buying, 108 ; selling at 110.

The old crop has passed so far under the shadow of the new that holders in all the great markets are ex ceedingly anxious to unload.

The market for cotton on spot has been pressed withjmucli irregularity in values. Du ring the early part of the week trado was ex ceedingly dull, and prices gradually reduced. Towards the close,business from importers im proved and a partial recovery occurred in prices. Specu’ative dealings have not been very liberal, particularly in Spring months. Prospective shipments from Southern ports had a hardening tendency in the early months, which closed up quite firm at 15 5-32 for Octo ber and November and 16 11-16 for December.
