SMITH’S BILE BEANS is a sin e cure for biliousness and liver I complaint. Price, 25 cents per bottle. Free Advice- Gratuitous advice generally avails nothing, however, we will venture: keep your premises free of all kinds of filth and rubbish and use lime and carbolic acid freely. Killed by Lightning. On Monday at noon, during a se vere thunder storm, lightning struck the house of Morgan Walton, on the Martinez place in this county, killing Walton instantly.

Very little damage done to the house, one plate shivered. The rest of the family unharmed. A Rrmindrr- Our ofllc? is on Main street, over iW. S. L'l/.enby's store.

Crops in many places in this coun ty present a poor appearance, especially cotton. It has looked bad all the year, owing to the coolness of the weather and much rain in many places. Sandy and upland corn gen erally is somewhat damaged by too much rain. Some of our farmers will hardly get out of the grass this season until frost shall stop the raging monster. A petition is being signed up by the citizens of this county to have tha stock law repealed in Richmond county at the next session of the Gen eral Assembly. Mr. Fleming, of Au gusta, promises to put forth efforts willingly and manfully in that direc tion should he be elected Rev. Sain Jones says when he gors to bed at night, he goes there to rest nnd sleep and refresh himself. He don’t lie down to study and ponder over the past ills of life, nor give way to anticipating misfortunes in the fu ture. That, will do very well for Mr. Jones, but when a man’s crop is en veloped in grass and it is still raining, if he can go to bed and sleep without devoting iu. hour or two to contem plation, he is not much account. It is our nature and it seems like we can’t help meditating a little upon probab e failures; not of great wealth, but of daily bread. Your Augusta correspondent’s items are read with much interest. — • •- Our Augusta Letter. WIT, MUSIC AM) TALIAT BROUGHT TO THE FRONT New Railroads —An Interest ing Case Before the Superior Courts —Base Ball, Etc. The commencement season has opened in earnest, as we have already had several, and several more are yet to come. Comparing the last three, namely St. Patricks, Sacred Heart and Tubman High School which were, held last week, I would say, St Patricks for wit, Sacred Heart for Music and Tubman High School for talent. The Tubman High School had the largest crowd that lias ever ! been in the Opera House, competent judges estimating the crowd at fifteen hundred, but I think seventeen hundred would come nearer the mark. The recitation of Miss Minnie I Miller was pronounced by all to be one of the finest efforts of the season. I The singing of Miss Tillie O’Brien, of the Sacred Heart Academy, was gran 1 and her voice is worth a fortune to her. She has rich full soprana voice. The valedictory delivered by Mr. P. J. Hughes, of the St. Patricks, was the finest undoubtedly that has been delivered here this year. He will yet make his mark. He has a brilliant future before him. The Houghton Institute Com- I rneficernent wih be held at the Opera ! House July 6th. It will draw a crowd as large as that at the Tubman . exhibition. A play written by the Principal of the School, Prof. Sliecut, entitled “Seaside Mystery,” will be produced. The commencements of this school are always deservedly popular owing to the efforts of Prof. Shecut to please the public.

The new railroads ninuing iiitrr Augusta are being punhed an rapidly I as possible ami are how in a fair wny to an early compl- tion. These great, additions will be of great benefit hr our growing city in various ways It will add cash and population for principal benefits Quite an interesting case came up before Judge Roney Monday t’bili, that of J. M. AY niton, executor of Mia Emily Tubman vs. The City Cmmcil < f Augusta. The question is, Who shall be trustee to administer the will of Richard H. Tubman who gave nil Ins property in trust to Augusta for the erection of a poor bouse and for the support of the poor of this county. There are four claimants the city" Council of Augusta, represented by Hon. <l. S. Davidson, City Attornei, the Trustees of the Richmond Acade my, represented by Mr. F. H. Miller the Executors of the estate repr< stint ed by Maj. J. B. Cummings Aud Jm’gtf Eve as County Commissioner repre sented by C. H. Cohen and M. F. Webb. Judge Boney after hearing argument reserved his decision. Tl <r verdict will settle the question id is thought. Our base ball club is going )»er cei tibly down and great fears ins" entertained that the club will have t«r give up the ghost. It is rumored it is on its hist, legs, caused by the re cent. heavy defeats of the team ami a want of cash in the treasury occasion ed thereby. It is hoped that she will not have to give up. so long ns l she has got this far. The stock holders have paid well for the sport in this city, but the citizens do not seem to appreciate their efforts, thnt? is, they do not patronize the game aw they should. 'They have sold Henry Kappel, the best player ju the teiine t<> Charleston for six hundred dollars. He is a gentleman and has won the' respect of the people of t his city. Hh has played honest, faithful ball for this city, and they have never htid a 1 better player. The Clwonide is mistaken when it says his release was wise, it is one of the worst things they could have done. We have to put old Bill Harbridge in the box to pitch for us. That is our worst weak spot And the managers appear to’ have no desire to remedy it A large crowd of young ladies and gentlnien went to Beaufort last" Satur day on the special train. They were tendered a german at, the Hea Island Hotel nnd had quite an enjoyable iiin<. Brother Gibson, of the Evening News, must be smitten with some of the Augusta delegation. The Legialatire race is getting red hot. 'The candidates have only two more days to work and they “are making hay while the sun shines.” '1 he Fifth Ward has been chosen us by mutual conient as thebattle ground.- Every night the candidate can be seen with his usual smile and “how dye do” meandering in that direc tion. The race has altered very little if any. AU of the candidates are" “going in” good humoredly and there is no “mud slinging”in thecampaign. The race will be a dose one. Rain! rain! rain! we have been having in abundance. .Sunday even ing it poured in blinding sheets for nearly four hours and nearly deluged the town. It rained off and on all day Monday, and shows no sign of cessation The death rate this year has been greater in this city than for man ,« many years past. We have hsu thirty deaths in this city this week, sixteen colored and fourteen white, and besides we have several more days of the month to count in yet. There is no epidemic but it is nearly every kind of disease, principally minor causes. Gordon’s friends in this city are* jubilant, over his great victory Hatur-- day. The Bacon men are considera bly down-hearted and seem to have given up the race. A perceptible' falling off of the Chronicle’s ardor is noticed. Reports of Gordon's great sweep are headed “Unheard of condi tion of affairs. Gordon gets in his* little batch of counties,” etc. Davipr VOL IV, NO. 40.
