The good people who got up the demonstra
tion in favor of the Mayor spelled his name
wrong on the canvass, and carried it all over
town that way. “Elect me every two weeks,”
said Demosthenes to his fellow-Athenians,
“atd put me up on a golden throne in the
middle of the Hellespont and feed me on
whales; bat don't, my Hellenic fellow-citizens,
don't spell my name inaccurately."
At the Liverpool Court of Passage, lately, a
servant claimed damages for libel against a
former mistress for stating, in answer to an
inquiry about the servant’s character, that
“she was neither strictly honest nor strictly
sober.” It was urged in defense that this was
a privileged communication, the portion com
plained of being a specific answer to a specific
question with reference to the character of a
domestic servant. The Court so held, and
uon-snited the plaintiff.
Says the Cleveland Flaindealer: “Skeptics
are beginning to believe in total depravity af
ter reading the shameless lying and nucalled
for slanders scattered through the Lender.” —
There was a time when such utterances as this
were pervaded by the repellent smell of pistols
and the fragrant odor of coffee, lint the editor
of to-day, great as is his proverbial antipathy
to ail the invigorating cordials of the gilded
saloon, would almost as soon drink with a
man twice as to fight with him once.
'Die Baroness Bunlet t-Coutts has not, like
most of her sex, that antipathy to the Free
masons which is generated by the secrecy of
their proceedings. Klie has, on the contrary,
recognized the charitaldo disposition of the
craft, and is going to work with them for the
common good. In return for a present of
“chairs of order” to the lodge which hears her
name she is to he invited to a banquet; and
this will he the first occasion in England on
which a lady has been present when lodge fur
niture as such will he used. Perhaps we shall
next be hearing o f her admission to a lodge.
Judge Myrick, of the Kan Francisco Probate
Court, has decided, in the case of Mrs. King,
that Sew York law is good in California, and
that the plaintiff is made a widow by her hus
band's life imprisonment, and is consequently
entitled to inherit under her father’s will. It
is a rather queer corollary of the decision that
Mrs. King propones to use the SIO,OOO she will
get in procuring anew trial for her husband,
in the hope to resurrect him. And this, too,
when she was laboring for a divorce when he
murdered O’Neill. As tho old London porter
said, “Bum erectors is wimmen!”
The New York Bapid Transit Commissioners
have before them sixty-seven above ground
plans ami eleven under ground or tnunel
plans, in all seventy-eight, the estimated cost
running from SIOO,OOO to SOOO,OOO per mile. Of
course each one of these plans is the host, and
as not less than two [lersous are interested in
each scheme, tho Commissioners are driven to
the vorge of lunacy by ono hundred and fifty
six voices, all eagerly explaining and expound-
ing; each and all eager fur the plum of official
endorsement. It would be impossible to de
scribe those proiiosed roads in detail. Inge
nuity is seemingly exhausted. Some havo one
rail, some two; somo run through tubes. In
one case tho cars aro suspended from the rails,
and in another there is a movable platform.
There aro one legged, two-legged and three
logged roads. They are of iron and stone, and
they aro to ho driven by movable and station
ary eugiuos, and by no engines at all, but by
gravity or by compressed air.
That is rather a good joke on tho Indian
captives in Florida, the refusal of their wives
to join them. Tho big chiefs who are in limbo
for indulging in tho diversion of murdering
the whites made a piteous appeal for their
dusky mates and little ones, and tho army
officer in charge endorsed their request favor
ably. Gen. Sheridan, in forwarding llie re
quest, said the talk of the chiefs about their
wires and children was “ rnero Indian twad
dle, bat, nevertheless (tho General had just
taken a wife, he it remembered), he would
recommend that their request bo grantel,
since they would never rest until they had
them.” The requisite order for the removal
of tho wives and children from tho Indian Ter
ritory to Florida was issuod, hut now Agent
Haworth telegraphs that the Sioux and Co
manche women are nnwilling to go, and wants
to know if he must forcibly remove them
l’orh&ps, despairing of tlioir husbands’ release,
thoy havo made other domestic arrangements.
Tho question tho Government must now de
cide is shall they he forced to go in compliance
with the requost of husbands No. 1 ?
Reports from tho West givoß estimates of
tho amount of damage by the recent storms
ami inundations in various localities. While
at this tirno such estimates aro little better
than guess work, they indicate certainly that
serious losses havo fallen upon individuals
and corporations, but whether any vory "great
impression lias been made upon tho aggregate
production of the country is a matter to be
ascertained hereafter It Booms that in the
inundated regions so far heard from tho acre
age of cultivation was largely above that of
last year, ami while there are estimates fixing
tho damage at from twenty-five to fifty per
cent., there aro localities whore tlio graiii will
turn out an average crop as compared witli
last year. This is illustrated in the Ohio valley,
where the actual damage is shown to be heavy,
and where the crops were superabundant. In
tho Wabash valley, in Indiana, the losses have
been more largely mixed, and the damage to
property of all kinds is loosely estimated at
#12,000,000. About the same average applies
to damage to crops as in tho Ohio valley, ox
cept in such isolated cases as tho swooping
away of an entire crop by tho breaking of tho
Wabasli and Erie canal.

YOUNG MEN’S CHRISTIAN ASSO
CIATION.
According to previous notice, those
who had signified their willingness to
join the Association in this place, met
at the Court House Wednesday after
noon for organization.
After the adoption of a constitution
for the government of the Association,
an election for officers to serve for the
remainder of this year was entered in
to, resulting as follows :
President—Lovick Pierce, Jr.
Vice-Presidents—W. D. Seymour and
James A. Harley.
Recording and Corresponding Secre
tary—E. S. Wilsou.
Treasurer—J. Clureuee Simmons.
About forty-five have already enrolled
their names as members, aud the list
will doubtless be largely increased at
the next meetiug.
It was resolved that a meeting be held
at the Court House ou Friday eveuing
next, at 8 o'clock, for business aud de
votional purposes, at which time the
Standing Committees will be announced
by the President, aud the Association
will be fully in working condition. As
this meetiug will be mainly for devotion
al purposes, the public generally are
invited to atteud.
The Association also resolved to hold
au open air meetiug iu front of the
Court House at a quarter to six o’clock.
Our people are going into the work
heartily, and we may reasonably hope
that great good will result from it.
The objects sought by this Associa
tion are the moral, social, mental aud
spiritual improvement of young men—
putting all church members actively to
work for the accomplishment of this de
sirable end. j
Coming into existence under such
favorable auspices, we confidently ex
pect a good report from the “Young
Meu’s Christian Association of Sparta. ’’
Good Meetings.
A delegation from the Young Men’s
Christian Association of Augusta visit
ed our town last Monday and held seve
ral meetiugs, which were largely attend
ed and greatly enjoyed by the Christian
people of the* community. The delega
tion was composed of Messrs. Black,
Wallace, Branch, Lane, Warren, Law
and Irvine, accompanied by the Rev.
Dr. Irvine, pastor of the Presbvterian
Church, of Augusta; also, by Messrs.
Pottle, Walker and Hubert, of the War
reuton Association, and Messrs. Holley
man and Blount, of Waynesboro Asso
ciation. Meetings were held in all the
churches during their stay, and an open
air meetiug near the Court House at 6
o’clock on Monday afternoon. Every
body was delighted with their manner
of conducting the meetings, and there
is reasou to believe that their visit has
been not only enjoyable to Christians,
but profitable to the community at large.
This visit has resulted in the organi
zation of au Association of like character
in Sparta, under the most favorable and
encouraging auspices.
The churches have no stronger
auxiliary than the Young Men’s Chris
tian Association. The enlistment of the
lay members as active workers for the
Master’s Cause is something that has
long been felt ; and the united, har
monious working of all professed fol
lowers of Christ, for the salvation of
souls, is something that must rejoice
the heart of every honest, true be
liever.

If Col. H. H. Jones, of the Telegraph

ber of the Board of Trustees of the

on those who brought it about. Cob
Jones deserved the position, not because
he is a “newspaper man,” but because
he is a gentleman of talent and culture,
who has labored assidiously to promote
the interests of the institution. He is
ten times more lit for the position than
a good many of those who are now upon
the Board.
A he ivy influence will be brought to
bear upon the next Legislature to make

The capacity of that asylum would ac

nor ought not, to contain both races.
Let the State provide for the colored
insane of Georgia by erecting buildings
suitable for the purpose. It is but jus
tice to that unfortunate class, and will
relieve the several counties of a heavy
tax. —Thomatville Times.
We take this method to warn our
brethren of the country press against
two strolling vagabonds named Pritch
ard and Lee. These fellows are the
very lowest type of vagabonds and are
totally unworthy of any kind of charity

They are making their way towards to

well known to both the fraternity and
the public to make any caution concern
ing him necessary. Look out for them.

who was being ridden across Greene

We claim that Mr. Green Dozier, the
father of our esteemed friend Colonel
E. J. Dozier, of the firm of Dozier, Wal
ton & Cos., of Augusta, is the champion
farmer of Georgia. Mr. Dozier has
made good crops as a farmer since 1811,
and has owned and farmed the place he
now occupies since 1813. In other
words, he is eighty-three years of age
and has made sixty-four crops, sixty
two of them having been made on the
same plantation, which is to-day in bet
ter condition than when he purchased in
1813. During his entire life, as a farm
er, M* Dozier has never purchased a
bushel of corn nor one pound of bacon
or flour, nor has he ever been in debt.
His life and record as a Christian gen
tleman and in all the social relationships
of life is without a blemish. Can the
State produce another of whom this
much cau be said. —McDuffie Journal.
From tables prepared by the Depart
ment of Agriculture, it appears that the
average price of farm labor with board
in the United States is sl2 40 per month,
being a decline of nearly twenty per
cent, since 1869. Part of this difference,
however, is found in the disproportion
in numbers of laborers of the bigger and
lower classes in efficiency and money
value. The calculations are based on
the numbers given respectively in the
census of 1860 and 1870, and in the lat
ter the slaves of the former period, who
had no place in that enumeration, are
included as farm laborers, increasing
the proportion of low-priced labor and
reducing the average. The average
price of labor, with board, in the South
ern States is $lO 17; in the Western,
sl3 66; in the Middle, sl6 81; in the
Eastern, $lB 58; on the Pacific coast,
S2B 12; and in the Territories, $lB 25.
The Atlanta Herald gives some figures
which show that its city has not attain
ed its late growth and prosperity with
out having to pay for it. It saw the
necessity of railroad and other improve
ments, and aided them liberally, incur
ring thereby a large debt. The Herald
says : “With a population of 33,000, we
havo a debt of nearly $2,000,000, or
about S6O to every man, woman and child
in the city. The value of our taxable
property is about $13,000,000, fourteen
per cent, of which is pledged for the
debt of the city. The interest account
of Atlanta grows $460 every twenty-four
hours. Every hour of the day or night
that slips by add sl9 to their interest
account. It costs ns over sl9 an hour,
or $460 a day to carry the debt with
which we are saddled. During the last
year this debt was increased by $425,-
(X)0. As to what we have to show for
this immense debt, we need not discuss
at present. While much, very much of
the money that goes to make it up has
been wasted, it has given ns much that
is valuable.
Colonel T. J. Smith writes to the Ma
con Telegraph: Iu canvassing various
counties—McDuffie and Columbia on
the Georgia Railroad, Telfair, Appling
and Montgomery on the Macon and
Brunswick Railroad, Sumter, Lee and
Webster on the Southwestern Railroad,
Cobb aud Cherokee, and many middle
counties of Georgia, iu the interest of the
Grange organization—it gave me a good
opportunity to see a great many crops,
aud those in the former oouuties on the
Georgia Railroad, Macon aud Brunswick
Railroad, and Southwestern Railroad,
are seriously damaged from the recent
drouth and burning sun. The corn crop
is materially cut off, whilst many were
liberal in their views that cotton could
still make a good crop, though the best
judges were of opinion all the early cot
ton is seriously cut off, and this opinion
struck me as most in accordance with all
I witnessed. In Middle Georgia the
crops are better. Occasional neighbor
hoods seriously cut off, whilst those
that were favored with partial rains and
the upper counties have better pros
pects. In fact, the more northern conn
ties have fine crops. The rains this
season have been partial, not a general
rain has fallen all Hammer.
Crop Reports.
Cotton appears to be well fruited.
Corn looks healthy in most places, but
the early corn will make now without
much more rain. Late and bottom corn
look well. Peas and potatoes promise a
good yield. Economy has been the al
most universal motto of our farmers.
God grant that these noble tillers of the
soil may be blessed with abundant
yields, and receive good prices for their
cotton —Covington Enterprise.
From Mr. A. M. Wolihln and Mr.
Morris Southeimer, who traveled over
the greater portion of Colquitt county
last week, we learn that the corn and
cotton crops are serionslv cut off by the
dronght. There had been no rain to do
any good for many weeks, and streams,
lakes, ponds and creeks, that were never
known to be dry before had ceased to
afford enough water for stock; but the
rains were beginning to fall abont in
spots, and no great suffering appre
hended. —Albany Hews.
The Quitman Reporter says: The
crops in Brooks county, we find upon
visiting the country, and talking with
some of our most practical and reliable
farmers, are not anything like as good
as we supposed and reported them to be
a short time since. We find that not
only; corn has been injured by the
drought, but cotton has been shed
ding both leaves and fruit to a fear
ful extent; and it is estimated by ex
pe -ienced planters that the chief pro
duct of our section will be cut short at
least one half. The sweet potato crop
will be unusually small, owing to the
fact that we had no rain until it was too
late to set ont vines, which is the most
popular mode of planting among onr
farmers.

WILL YOU BELIEVE IT I
WOMAN’S BEST FRIEND.—TO RELIEVE THE
aching heart of woman and bring joy where sorrow
reigned supreme is a mission before which the
smiles of kings dwindle into utter insignificance.
To do this is the peculiar province of Dr. J. Brad
field’s Female Regulator; which, from the number
less cures it has accomplished, is appropriately styled
Wcni3u’s Best Friend. The distressing complaint
known as the “ whites,” and the various Regular
ities of the womb, to which woman is subject, dis
appear like magic before a single bottle of this won
derful compound. It is prepared by L. H. Brad
field, Druggist, Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1 50 per
bottle by respectable Drug men everywhere. Physi
cians prescribe it. Its action is prompt, sure and
decisive.
Now in Perfect Health.

Weekly Review of Augusta Market.
Augusta, Ga., Friday Aftkkiioon, )
August 13,1876. f
General Remarks.
The condition of trade in Augusta during the
past week has been duller even than that of
the two or three weeks immediately preceding.
Beyond the ordinary home demand there has
really not been enough business to warrant
any change in quotations, so the figures to our
resume, with one or two Blight exceptions, re
main as last week. The fact is city and country
merchants are “laying on their oars” and wait
ing for the advent of the new cotton crop,
which will instill life into all branches of com
merce in this section. The old king is monarch
yet, and hie white locks are destined to wear
the crown for many years to come. As long as
our farmers devote their entire energies to the
production of this staple, depending upon the
West for provisions, must the eyes of the
Somth be turned principally to this product.
The failure of the cotton crop practically
means disaster and ruin not only to the pro
ducer but to the mercantile community.
Id the provision line but little has been done
during "the week, and our quotations are un
changed except in the matter of Western flour,
which has advanced slightly. There is no ex-,
citemeut in the market, however. The stock
is light and holders are firm at quotations.
Bacon is scarce aud firm with a fair demand.
Wheat, which last week seemed destined to
run up to higher figures than any reached this
season, has halted. As the advance was brought
about by reports in regard to the Western
floods, so it was checked, later advices having
shown that the disasters were not half so bad
as people at first expected. From the present
stand-point there seems to be no prospect of
any further advance. Asa matter of interest
we place before our readers the following from
the New York Produce Exchange Weekly, of
August 6, showing the visible supply of gram,
comprising stocks in granary at the principal
points of accumulation at iake and seaboard
ports, in transit on the 1 see, by rail, and on

New York Dry Goods Market.
[ Atm York Bulletin.]
The trade movement was spasmodic, and
during the earlier part of the week the market
was depressed by unfavorable reports con
cerning the damage done to the crops in the
West b\ stormy weather. Before the close of
the week confidence had been measurably re
stored, and advices from leading merchants in
larger Western distributing points were of are
assuring character. There was, however, an
absence of snap to tho demand for dry goods,
and operations were conducted in a hand-to
mouth manner, which was somewhat disap
pointing to holders of merchandise, who were
led to anticipate a brisk movement with the
opening of August. There is not apparently
any substantial reason for despondency in re
gard to the Fall trade. Buyers have become
tired of purchasing goods months in advance
of their probable requirements for which there
is now 1 no occasion, as transportation facilities
have been so greatly improved rosidont buyers
have become more numerous, and the tele
graph is an invaluable agent for the speedy re
plenishment of broken assortments. There is
every reason to believe that carried over stocks
of winter goods are exceptionably light in the
hands of both jobbers and retailers throughout
the country, henoe a moderately large and en
tirely healthy autumn trade seems highly pro
bable. There was in addition to a moderate
demand for strictly staple fabrics an improved
movement in nearly all descriptions of autumn
goods, and the commission houses effected
considerable saleß of worsted dress goods
woolen and worsted shawls, liuseys, felt skirts,
lioisery, shirts and drawers, Cardigan jackets,
Ac., prices for which were established by the
leading agents. Prints and ginghams were
also in better demand, although individual se
lections were comparatively small. Cotton
goods moved slowly from agents' hands, and
but few descriptions were really active. Cot
ton flannels, corset jeans and satteens, plaid
chevoits and a few leading makes of brown
and bleached cottons were severally in steady
request by jobbers, but the general market
rnled quiet and featureless. Prices were on
the whole fairly sustained, but concessions
were mado on a few makes of ticking in order
to stimulate their movement, which had the
desired effect. Tho supply of cotton goods i
still large—probably excessive of several de
scriptions—despite the curtailed production,
and although it is not our province to give ad
vice ta manufacturers, it may be well for them
to consider the expediency of still further re
ducing tho supply ih order to give steadiness
to the market, and thus enable their agents to
obtain a paying price for manufactured goods.
There was a steady doiaud for heavy standard,
four-yard and fine brown sheetings, sales of
which to city and out-of-town jobbers reached
a considerable aggregate amount. Wide sheet
ings remained quiet with agents and jobbers.
Bleached sheetings and shirtings continued
quiet, apart from a few of the most popular
makos, which met with moderate sales. There
was also a small export demand for shirtings,
but tho general movement was unsatisfactory
and the supply is largely in excess of the cur
rent demand. Davol 4-4 was reduced to 13jo.
Cotton flannels were still active in agents’
hands, and the sales of the week, combined
with liberal deliveries on account of former
orders, reached an important amount. Several
of the leading makos are sold up to receipts
by the agents. Corset jeans and satteons—
The best colored makes moved steady and in
considerable parcels, and fhe supply of such
barely keeps pace with the demand. Dyed
ducks were taken more freely by tho Western
and California trade, to whom some fair par
cels were disposed of. The Bengal rattan
si ipeg were in undiminished request. Colored
cottons ruled quiet, except Cheviots., which
continued iu good demand. Tickings moved
slowly, and concessions were made on some
makes in order to reduce accumulations. Den
ims remainod inactive, and there was no move
ment of importance in either stripes, apron
cheeks or cottonades. Boiled jaceonets were
in limited request, and flat'fold oambrios and
silesias ruled quiet. Grain bags were distri
buted in considerable amounts by jobbers and
closed steady in price. Print cloths were very
lightly dealt in. and the sales of the week were
unusually small. Quotations were almost nom
inal, some holders demanding sjc for extra
G4’s. but no transactions were reported above
s}c—3o days. The strike at Fall River continues,
but indications of a Hpeedy settlement are not
lacking; in the meantime all the mills are
closed. There was considerable activity ill the
calico market, but individual purchases were
exceptionally light, and tho aggregate distri
bution failed to realize the expectations of
holders. The new styles thrown on the mar
ket during the week included Oriental fancies
at B}c anu robes at 9c, Wasliiagton fancies at
B}c, 'Sprague’s fancies at 8c and Freeman’s
fancies at 7}c. all of whioh wore favorably re
ceived by the trade. Pacific, Manchester,
Hamilton, Richmond, DunneU’s, Bristol,
American, Coclieco, Southbridge, Hartel's,
Gloucester, Merrimac, Oriental and Washing
ton prints are all held at B}c, Allen’s and
Sprague’s at Bc, and Gamer's at 7Jo, while the
price of Arnold’s will be definitely made in a
few days. The Bristol plaid prints, styles 761,
757, 758, 767 and 706 are sold to arrive, and
Southbridge fancies, styles 174, 175. 177. 180.
184, 185. 188. 193, 194, 196, have been closed
out, and are in course of their second print
ing, the whole of which style, 180, has already
been engaged. Ginghams—The current pro
duction of leading standard makeH ifi fail color
ings has been taken by the trade on receipt,
and many styles are sold to arrive, including
the new green plaids manufactured by the
Renfrew Cos., which are ve r y choice goods.
The Lancaster and Amoskeag fancies are also
closely sold up to the receipts by the agents.
Dress goods have been decidedly more active
iu first harfls, and the jobbing movement has
shown increased animation. The Pacific Mills
productions, which were opened during tho
week, embrace ail the popular staple styles, as
well as numerous new candidates for public fa
vor. The printed Argyles, in imitation of
woven dress goods (in self-colored plaids. Ac.)
have made a hit, and are already selling freely
by the leading jobbers. The Pacific woven
fabrics present the same points of excellence
which distinguished thorn in former seasons,
and which lias done much towards populariz
ing American dress goods. The Manchester
Mills fabrics are in every way desirable, and
have been placed on the market at attractive
prices, which cannot fail to meet the approba
tion of the trade. The Washington Mills have
surpassed their former efforts in the manufac
ture of dress goods, and this season show a
really snrperior line of self-colored plaids, in
addition to a full choice of alpacas, poplins,
cretonnes. Ac. Scheppersßrothers’dress fab
rics and Hamilton reps have been hitherto re
ferred to in terms of recommendation, and
have mot with liberal sales.
