There was a man in our town, F lie was so wonderous wise, lie thought his business would run Itself s And he didn't advertise. Well, business was dull at first, t lint, belter times came, and its queer, fine day w ith a rti^h he sold a:l his stulf, t tiut tlie Sheriff was auctioneer. -Ex. , Fickle Weather. ? Yesterday the weather was variable. In the morning we lu d i.ail-ilozeu showers, between j' which the sun shone out. In the afternoon j thedrylng winds and bright sun did much toll dry the ground. Quite a large crowd of citizens assembled i on the Public .Squhic last Monday, which m made it present much the appearance of al busy Sale Day. Numbers of farmers from ev-j ery section of the county were here. Tneetn-I 1 (grating party of colored p.ople and their! friends swelled the crowd. Our merchants j ] ?J tk. noinion tt't.rp tlie ret-lmenls *?f 111!-1 merous favors, un<l nearly everybody seemed I j In a good humor with themselves and the | rest of mankind. Very little drunkenness', wa< observed, and unusual good order pre-:J vailed throughout the day. at the close of J which the crowd quietly dispersed. Commoi>ork qtintard an 1 hlsaccompuny- j Ing friend* of the splendid new merchant; steamer "City of Columbia." which will runp between N?w York and Charleston, were re- j ceivcd by the city aiuhoi itii s and citizens of] Columbia at the Grand Central Hotel, last j Friday afternoon afternoon, where a superb j d'uner was served, at the close of which up-j ] proprlate speeches of welcome were made, j i ancl acknowledgements were tendered. j j Jeff Davis'book, entitled: "The Kise and ! Fall of the Confederate Government" Is fin- * ished, and will be put to press at once. Noti' only Southern people, but many others, willM l>e glad to sec it. In his hurry to get it ready (' for the press, he omitted the chapter on the I propriety and expediency of a man's leaving; his wife and children in one State, to ^o to 1 live in the house with a widow in a distant State.

The heiuht of the river at Augusta In 1R40, was 37 feet and l'? Indies. In the freshet of 1S52 It went as liiah as 37.05 feet, in lStil i feet, and in 18C5 3t>.ll feet. It takes 30 feet to! cover tlie entire city, though several localities | are several feet under water at 31 fret, and this j depth brings it through Broad street its entire i length. The height of the river recently was 80 feet 6 Inches. Last hcnday was a beautiful spring-like day, and the number of worshippers at our different church** was greater than has been In attendance on Divine service for perhaps | two months. The promenaders on Main street thronged the sidewalks for the greater part of the day, and In the afternoon it seemed as If I all the well-dressed darkies in town were out i for an airing. Some persons ihink that John F. Hobbs is 1 to get a Federal appointment lor the course] which he is pursuing. A decent party cer-J tninly has become very much reduced when j It has to resort to such measures to gain a re-1 crult. As a matter of fact, there are a num-1 ber of consistent Republicans who are more entitled to the patronage of tho party than a raw recruit. Lest an erroneous Idea rests abroad, it may j be well to state that the Master, while de- J barred by his office from practicing in the Court of Common Pleas, is aHowed to practice I in tbe Courts ot (Jeneial Sessions. So if any | of Master Ronham's friends and clients need his services on the criminal side of the Court . he can still attend lo them.

On their return from the West with mules. Mr. John Devlin and Mr. Walllntjford got off the freight train on the Air-Line Railroad and took passive on the express train. Twenty minutes afterward there was a smash up. In which a number of mules were killed and some pasH'iipe/s wounded.
