Cfjromcle and &ntfmdL Wr.iNESL>AY, FEBRUARY 28, 1877. THE RKMJI-T. Haw i.ocal Politicians Hoped Against (tape. Yesterday mor mug every one in Au gusta, man, woman and child, stood anxiously waiting (or the news from the “round lettered State, the land of the far West and home of the mountains.” Wild ramora at different times would flit to aod fro that Mr. Snooks bad a special which intimated that one of the infamous eight would go right; that the vote of Oregon would be thrown out and the election go in to the House. Q'oups of gentlemen were gathered about the street corners between four and five o’clock, each one feeling that probably at that hour the doom of the nation was being spoken in infamous accents by the bigoted eight and a death knell seemed to sound in every ear, twining its mournful octocbrod around the soul as when the monastery bill rang ont the sad fate of Constance. The general opinion indeed was that the whole affair was prejudged and yet there could be found many upon the streets who cherished hope while the final decision was withheld. At five o’clock the dispatch from Washington conveying the intelligence that nothing remained to hang doubt or hope upon, was the finishing touch to the confirm ed skeptics, and a sad shook to the “hopers against hope.” Thus the af ternoon passed away, and when the sun burst out from behind the clouds and the sky was illnmined with the dying rays of the day, it did seem as though brighter "ws would come. How the affair tormina ed onr dispatcher this |morning too plaimy tell, and the average man of Augusta-towu will not be sur prised when he reads it. But directly it matters little to uh. The county of 2,500 Tildeu majority can afford to wait, and we opine that be it Hayes or Tilden, the Bell Tower will stand as firmly in its moorings; the fountains will jet as gladly in the sunlight; “the raging kanaht” bound as boisterously around the revolving tnrbines; the monuments and cenotaphs loom up from the trees as beantifully in the moonlight; the Hand Hills and old Bcholtz preserve their dignified summits, and the staid muddy'old Isnndigna, as before, will roll noiselessly and majestically to the sea. A IJYKI.Y RUNAWAY. tk* Mhotrt and f>laatron C areer of a Frightened iei m. Yesterday morning a team of horses on Broad street, becoming frightened at tbe cars passing through Washington street, dashed off down Broad in the direction of the fountain. Tbe wagon soon became uncoupled, and the hind wheels with the body and the driver scattered around promiscuously. The horses now made a bolt for the sidewalk aod, parting on a tree in front of the Monumental Haloon, were thrown vio lently upon the sidewalk, the bay hav ing its leg badly skinued and its left eye kuocked completely ont. Tbe other horse and the wagon were not hnrt at all, but tbe harness was considerably broken. BETWEEN THE BIMPKKH. A Train llantl I* Cranked Between Two Cars. One of the most dangerous occupa tions in which n railroad man bus to serve is the coupling of oars by tbe bumpers now in use, and it is strange indeed that some self-coupling method has not been invented to obviate the dangers with which such men are con stantly threatened. Yesterday afternoon Bill Worreys, a colored employee m the Georgia Bail road yard, was mashed between two ears which he wm cutting loose, and badly hurt in the ahdomoD. He was taken up from the ground and carried home to his residenoe, a short distance from the scene of the accident. A HOOD SHOT. The Uoinfi of An One Armed Sport mu an. Yesterday morning we were informed that Mr. Elias Bell, an one armed ex ('on federate warrior, at Thompson’s station, on the Central Boad, killed at one shot six lurge turkey gobblers, ag gregating ninety three pounds. Mr. Bell, notwithstanding the loss of his arm, is a skillful huntsman and a crack shot in that section of his country. Ifoiled in the Attempt. The prisoners eon fined in the Aiken jail made an effort on Friday night to escape and hut for the vigilauce of Sheriff Holley and his assistants, would have been successful. They removed au iron rim from the bucket used for carry ing water to them, and with a fi e which was concealed, mude a saw, and passed it from one ell to tbe other. With this instrument they cut through the boards on the inside of the cells, and removed the brick. It was an easy mutter then to drop on the guard below, overpower and murder him. This they say was their plan. L< tno man say dreams are not prophetic. This was revealed to A apt. Brown in that way. He related it to the Hlieriff, who wont immediately to the jail, uud discovered the plot just in time to foil it. It ia hard to imagine a more hardened sot of criminals. One of them, Lucius Thomas, says he felt that he was working against the Lord in at tempting to escape, and therefore he <waa unsuccessful. City Bail. Our attention- has been called to the new aud complete map of the oity of Augusta, recently gotten out by Mr. Wm. Phillips, C. E. The map appears to be aocuratein every detail, giving the city wards, fire districts aod carefully locating every water pipe, fire plug, pump aud fire cistern in the city. The map ia a marvel of neatness and accu racy, and every citizen should hare one upon his wall, A inert*'ho lotto, 1a Working lain Kaslaud. [/.. J. Jenning* Lust London Kaffir.] The cotton trade, in my opinion, is passing from England, not temporarily, but permanently, and no ofie who is en gaged ia it yet realises that fact. And what baapriviaced the revolution* The great aud silent advance made in cotton manufacture on your side of the Atlan tic. I need not tell you that hitherto England has held practically a monop oly in this branch of industry, Site sup plied tbe world. But now wherever a piece of English cotton can enter a mar ket another piece of American ootton is to be seen side by aide with it—always aa good, eon etimee bettor in quality, aud lower iu price. This last fggt j# one for which I ires quite unprepared when I began to make inquiries into the sub ject. But a fact it is: and it is fatal, to the recovery of English trade.

An exciting episode occurred at the Winter quarters of Howes’ Great Lon don Circus and Hanger’s English Mena gerie yesterday morning. As was stated in the' Chronicle and Hentinel, some time since, tbe animals in the menagerie are fed once every day on raw beef. This event has daily attracted large crowds of onr citizens, enrions to witness tbe in teresting spectacle. Yesterday the feed ing took place abont 11 o’clock, and as nsual there were a number of people present—principally ladies and children. The beef was distributed to the ani mals by Mr. Julius Barton, the assistant keeper. In going the ronnds Mr. Bar ton finally reached the cage containing the fine, beautiful but treacherous look ing Texas panthers. Apparently raven ons with hanger, these fierce creatures jumped wildly from side to side of the cage, which shook fearfully under the tremendons bounds. Placing tbe tray with tbe meat on the ground m front of the cage, Mr. Barton stack his pitch fork into a large piece of meat, and poshed it between two of the bars. One of tbe panthers IciMtantly t.rawped Tbe beef with teeth and claws, and pall ed with all bis might upon it. The piece was rather larger than usual, or it got crosswise the bars. Tbe panther palled hard, growling fiercely the while, and the meat gradually squeezed into the cage. Bat the tremendons strain had been too much for one of the bars. Dr. J. E. Wash ington, who was among tbe spectators, •aw the bar suddenly give way, start from its socket at tbe bottom on the cage, and bend inwards in such a man ner that tbe panther could force its way out. In a moment he called to tbe keeper, who was bending down for tbe purpose of picking up another piece of meat to give to one of the other pan- ; there, “Look out, Barton, that panther is abont to get out.” Barton, however, 1 who was busily engaged, did not hear him, and in an instant almost the pan ther had forced its way out, jumped on the ground beside tbe keeper and Grasped a Piece of Meat. A wild scene of terror and confusion immediately ensued. Women and chil dren screamed and ran in every direc tion, strong men turned pale, and the animals in the cage, looked on in won derment. As soon as the panther touched tbe ground Mr. Bartou realized the sit uation, and with admirable presence of mind and a cool bravery possessed by few, threw himself upon the back of tbe animal, put bis bands around its throat and endeavored to choke it into subjec tion. But the ferocious beast having now tasted liberty and—beef, was not to be so easily subdued. Tnrning over it engaged in a fierce tussle with Mr. Bar ton. By a liberal use of teeth and claws it finally compelled the keeper to release it, and it then started for tbe opposite side of the shed. Mr. Barton, who had sprung to his feet, followed quickly and grasped the animal by the tail before it hud proceeded many steps. The panther, surprised by this novel method of attack, dashed through the shrinking crowd of people in the inclosure, scattering them right and left. Mr. Barton held on manfully to the heist’s caudal appendage, notwith standing its struggles to get loose, until it ran under a wagon, when he was com pelled to let go. Almost immediately, however, the animal came out again, and was once more tackled by Mr. Bar ton. A second time the panther rushed through tbe crowd, making no attempt to molest any one, being too closely pressed by Mr. Barton, who clung to its tail with a firm grip. This time the panther ran out into the yard next to Ellis street, in rear of the shed where the cages are kept, dragging Mr. Barton over the ground after it. The now fu rious beast proceeded rapidly to the end of the yard, and Tried to Climb a Tree Close to the brick wall. In this at tempt, however, it was foiled by Mr. Barton, wbo held on tenaciously to its tail. By this time Mr. Geo. Arsteing stall, the keeper of the elephants, and Mr. Driseo, the chief keeper of the ani mals, who had been endeavoring to cap ture the truant, managed to get a rope around its neck and thus choke it into subjection. It was then dragged to the cage, which was quickly made secure after the panther’s escape, and prepara tions made to restore it to its old home. The other four panthers, after persistent efforts by tbe attendants, in the way of beating and punching, were made to go into the end of the cage farthest from the door They were then barrioaded at that end by placing boards through the bars. This done the door was opened aud the captured panther thrust into the cage. After it was put in it resisted for some time all efforts to remove the ropes which bound it, and it was not until it was choked nearly to death that this oould be accomplished. It was then fonnd that the panther was almost lifeless, and prompt measures had to be resorted to in order to restore it. Copi ous drenohings of cold water aud hard rubbing finall" “brought it arouud” all right, aud the auimsl ouoe more paced its oage a wiser if not a better panther. When tbe panther first sprang from its cage one of the others attempted to follow it, and succeeded it getting its head and shoulders through the open ing, but the prompt action of the at tendants, who belabored it over the head, forced it back. Tbe fact that the raw meat was with in its grasp wbeu it first reached the ground in all probability prevented the panther from seizing a child from among the number who were in tbe orowd of spectators. As it was every body except Mr. Barton escaped with nothing more serious than a bad scare. Mr. Barton was somewhat braised in his anaounter with th p sniipsl. He oertain ly displayed remarkable presence of mind, coolness aud bravery throughout the whole affair. Among the spectators of the escape and encounter were Several members of the Pay sou Opera Troupe. -a- THE SHADOW BEFORE. 1 tidbcKii ji£ the Tyranny of the Brazen l *urper—Hay e* Promisee to Sustain Cham berlain* Slea/n# aufi 4al*d—The Worst Feature of (jlrantiaip tp pe Ejclipifd—Tbe Pe#ilji ot the West Uncontrollable— A Strong JJpyepient for a New Election— Washington In a Blaze of Pgry.

ACHING HEADS AND UNEAST NERVES Are often soothed by Hostetler’s Stom ach Bitters, because that searching cor rective completely removes the causes of brain and nerve excitement, which are to be fonnd in derangement of tbe stom ach, aod of its associate organs, tbe liver and bowels. It is a truth which cannot be too earnestly insisted upon, that the effect of mere sedatives and narcotics, like bromide of potassium, valerian, chloral hydrate and opinm, is less appreciable the longer they are used, and that they can never perma nently relieve nervous excitability, be cause they cannot remedy the weakness and organic derangement which lies at its roots. Hostetter’s Bittters, however, can and does cure nervous maladies, for the reason already stated. Sick head aches, restlessness at night, vertigo, mental heaviness, and depression of spirits, as well as the despeptic condi tion of the stomach, and torpidity of the liver and bowels, which give rise to them, are entirely obviated by this be nign alterative tonic. feb!B-o6wl CONSUMPTIVES, TAKE NOTICE. Every moment of delay makes your cure more hopeless, and much depends on your judicious choice of a remedy. The amount of testimony in favor of Dr. Scbenck’s Pnlmonic Syrup, as a cure for Consumption, far exceeds all that can be brought to support the pre tensions of any other medicine. See Dr. Schenck’s Almanac, containing the cer tificates of many persons of the highest respectabi ity, who have been restored to health, after being pronounced incur able by physicians of acknowledged ability. Schenck’s Pnlmonic Syrup alone has cured many, as the evidenoes will show; bat the cure is often promot ed by the employment of two other remedies which Dr. Scbenck provides for the purpose. These additional remedies are Scheuck’s Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills. By tbe timely use of these medicines, according to direc tions, Dr. Schenck certifies that most any case of Consumption may be oared.
