Nra Riv DISTURBANCE OX THE MISSISSIPPI.
-A rli-irjau'h dated Memphis, October 8,
says t.. ? AT ' ~~,
A seriou* disturbance occurred on Cat Is
latid, UTHO^ -EV? miles below here, on Sat
urday. About lilly negroes armed themselves
nrid'starti-d out, n.s soine say, with the deter
minalion t* slaughter all whites. They first
encountered H-ury and Ike Turner, and com
menced tiring on them. The latter returned
the lire with revolver? killing Bill Dixon, the
negro leadei, and another, and lundim?
three others. The negroid then fled. Henry
Turner wa9 slightly wounded in the head.
The whites in .the neighborhood then arm
ed and went in pursuit ; but after the death
of their leader, the negroes scattered through
the country. Parties are now here in search
of some-of the ringleader.
CAPITAL ADVICE/-The Petersburg Index,
of Weduesday, says :
In the event that the eli ?tions held on yes
L-i Jay di-close radical maj iritieH, an attempt
will at ouce be made to play a bluff game,
und tn intimidate the Southern States into
the adop ion of the constitutional amendment.
Self ?ivied friends will whisper that it is bet
ter to yieid tliis one time, as if all the COD
celions we made'luit year had not taught
their own lessons. To all thia b't-a-e1" aud
the suggestions of the tempter, lot na oppose
a ?..vd?0?iiHi;ience, a quiet discharge of the
duties of lit?, and a finn, unwavering resolve
11 do uotbi-o' thar is mean, cowar Hy and dis
grace^!. Then nei'd be no fear ot the adop
tion of 'hi* amendrnet. If ail the Northern
States wera to be temporarily lid astray by'
posion and excitement, the States,, sduply by
a p >licv of .* masterly inactivity," can def. af.
tut amendment until tbebaiance of the Norb
ert) States shall, like Oregon, expunge the
ratifica 'on; b istily gfr'?ji under paci?n anti
excitement. In another iWWG we ?hall take

"WHITE MAN KILLED UY A NEGRO.-On
Tuesday night of list week, in the neighlior
hood ot Salubrity, several wb?*.e men called
upon Cato Cath< un, a freedman, aa wo learu

was ascertained was in bis pnsaosMon. Upon

WHAT DOW IT MEAN 7-The New O-'lein?
Time*, of the '2 I, siy* ; We have some r ifi;
er startling intelligence from the seat of Gov
ernment, and frofjj a source **hi.:h leave* not
a douht o' its itotbentk-ity. When the Fir.-1
United States Colored Infantry were m asl er-1
ed Ou', of service, ? large number of them re- ;
niaine<l in and around Washington. These
ex soldiers have kept np their organization
under the name of " Lincoln Reserve Gulps,"
of which one CAP:. Daniel K. Jenkins is com
dander of the fiwt battalion. On the even
ing of September 4. a secret meeting a.s
field, at which ?boat lOO of tues: men signed
A resolution offering their services to Gov.
Wells, of Louisiana, to aid in hi-? struggle
" for liberty and justice." Capt. Jenkin?; wa?
instructed to write Gov. Wells to this effect,
stating that the "Lincoln Reserves", were
i( well armed and disciplined, and would serve
without remuneration"-exempting, we sup
'pose, what they could conti .scute, ala Butler.
What does this proposition indicate ? Do
the radical politicians intend {jetting up an
other riot iii New Orleans? Are. the K loyal
Louisianians" and Northern political leaders
not satisfied with the blood they have caused
to be spilled in our streets ? Do they wish to
add to the unfortunate caiamity they brought
upon ofir people by further tumult and disor
der? Certainly this looks as if there was%
.tome foul plot hatching.

Not a Legal Tender.
In the Court of Common Pleas for York Dis
trict, Judge Aldrich presiding, an important case
was tried, as we learn from the Enquirer, of ]
Thursday. It was briefly ibis : The Sheriff, in a
ccrtiin cate, refused to accept United States legal
tender notes in discbarge of an esecutioa against
the defendants, and a rule was if?acd against him.
Thecise W'S ably argued by counsel on ?ach
sido', and Judge aldrich decided, unhcsitatiuglv,
that the Uuited States Treasury notes purporting
to bo a legal tender are not n Irgul tender for
dcbts*ofany description, writing upon Contracts
made either previous to or since the passv.gc of the
currency Act inj digress. Uo Conceived, that the
Constitution of the United Stntos, as Will as the
laws of this .Suto, forbade any such conclusion.
This is an important decision to the pooplo of |
tbis State, and as notico of appoal has boin given,
tho action of tho higher court will be looked for
ward to with interest.

Our Trip to Augusta.
Ten dnys ago, wo betook ourselves to Augusta
to be pre=ent at the-performances of Max Stra
kosch'a Italian Opera Troupe. As this was thc
first Opera we had attended for six tremendous
years, it may be easily understood how wo bocame
considerably demented -with pleasurable excite
ment. Six tremendous years ! In which South
ern people have been. learning sad lessons in tho
school of Experience, inexorable toachor whoso
face is as stern as that of Death.
As wo sat and listened to the strains of Norma
and. Lucrezia Borgia, wo forgot for a while tho
grim reality of tho present, and wandorod in im
agination among tho idle and happy diya when
wo lcd a Bohemian life nil ulong the line from
Edgefield to Berlin. Thanks to our little trip for
that momentary resurrection, if for nothing else.
Tbsre are not many thincs that have the power
of reproducing the prim rose path of youth, and
therefore wo are grateful for the* briefest glimpses.
Bat we must not let our theme grow too seri
ous nor must wo let our readers longer harbor
the thought that we are going to bore them with
an account of the Italian Opera. Wc have no
idea of such a thing. The performances wore in
admirable style as regards singing, acting and or
chestral execution ; as regards scenery, necessary
external accessories, space for an amplitude of
supernumeraries, thc distance that londs enchant
ment, ?c., Ac, ibo Augusta thcatro affords no
facilities whatever. It is a building utterly un
worthy of thc etty.
But though wo may not describo the Operatic
performances critically und technically, because
wo think it would interest very t)w, still we ven
ture with perfect safety upon thc appearance and
dress of the ladies who graced the audiences. Our
first vivid impression was that these fair ones bad
come wiih the intention of adjourning, after thc
performance should be over, to a fancy ball. They
fairly neked with raiubow tinted fineries. When
we lowered our eyes to a level with their heads,
glancing across the fluttering perspective, we
might have imagined we beheld a botanical garder
in full bloom. Huge roses and jap?nicas and
jessamines and hyacinths and marguerites and
fuchsias ornament profusely half thc heads in
the throng; not piled, bo it remembered, like
Pelion upon Ossa, right straight up above the fore
head, as was thc fashion a year ago, but diffused
all over tho head, even falling in wreaths under
tbe-chiu. Crimson and green, yellow aud purple,
white, blsek, brown ? velvets, silks, tissues, laces ;
and beaven knows wli.it other lovely combinations
of huos t.nd textures, rioted as a carnival before
oui delighted vision. Away with tho old saying
of "Itauty unadorned, adorned tho most;" there
is not b word of truth in it. And sinco we arc on
thc rabbet of female adornment, let us tell the
Indies of those dear old parts that they are not up
to tho height of the argument ns resards bonnets.
The little patches, square, oblong, "oval, of silk,
Ince, straw, volvot, ornamented with dowers, feath
ers, ribbons, bugle bends, and gilt agraffes, which
we saw lately in Augusta, are decidedly tho most
beautiful articles of dress we ever saw, or ever
expect to Bee. An old orthodox bonnet, with a
regular shape and a regular crown, looks now ts
our enlightened eyes like a head-dress made for
an elephant.
But where did we set up our rest while we so
journed in the fair city ? At thc
AUGUSTA HOTEL,
Ono of the most pleasing feature? of which is thc
au tuber of familiar faces that meet one's eye in
every, direction. Th'i3 Hotel seems to be tho
grand rendezvous for EdgeGeld.peuple. And sure
wo are thoy coud not find a better place. Mr. S.
M. JONES, the proprietor, is an elderly gentleman
of quiet demeanor, but of great energy, enterprise
and liberality. Col. GEO. H. JONES, tho gallant
leader of the 22nd Georgia Regt, during tho late
war, seems to havo tho general superintendence
of the establishment, and from his great popu
larity, uuiform courtesying many noble quali
ties cs gentleman and hott, cannot fail to give
endri satisfaction to thc gue?ts of thc hou;e. Mr.
-JONES, son o? tho proprietor, a young
gentleman of most plensin;; manners and address,
also adds very much, by h?3 refined ar.d polite
attcutions, to the comfort and pleasure cf visitors.
Independent of tho intrinsic excellencies which
commend the Augusta Hotel to those who deidre
comfortable quarters, good cheer, and the best
attention, its ?nniefliafe proximity to thc commer
cial portion of the oily is a high recommendation
to tho man of business. As for ourselves, and
our party, ive shall not soon forget the eonifort,
hospitality and liber?lity of the Augusta Hotel.
And where did we buy our dry goods? At
GRAY, MULLARKY A CO'S.
Yes, we buve"been living witnesses of tho glory
of GRAY, MULLARKY ? Co. And hove had
lively experience of their high and cavalier lib
erality. Their immense Dry Good:; Establishment
is a miracle of taste and completeness. One
might spend a month in it, and keep up a vigor
ous pulling and hauling all that time, and still
not see tho half of its rich contents. Nor would
ono month, or twelve months, exhaust thc un
affected courtesy of its proprietors and clerks.
In fact we are undeniably in love with all the
GRAYS and MUI.LARKYS and TURLEYS and Knx
NKYS and BAILIES and SrnvESSES-whole-souled
sons of Erin. They have taught us lately a truth
of which wo never had much doubt: that tho
Irish are the most genial apo) most generous of
all people. As for GRAY, MI'LLARKV A Co., we
\>cg them to accept tho assurance that atoll times
and pince.? In tho future, wo shall feel it our bound
en duty to diligently exult their horn.
And where did we see thc riebest and most
beautiful Carpetings, Curtains, Shades, and all
manner of Upholstery ? At
JAMES G. BAILIE ? BRO'S.
Their goods of this sort are magnificent. They
conducted us through their largo* establishment,
and we almost imagined ourselves in a Bazaar in
Str.mboul. On thu first floor is their largo and
varied stock of G.rocorios, Wines, Liquors and
Sundries. Abovo this, is their gorgruits Carpet
and Curtain Room, where every thing is spread
or hung so as to bo socn to tho greatest advan
tage Behind this u.e two rooms, in ono of which
sempstresses wore working upon curtains of dam
ask and lace, whilo in the ether a grand Brussells
Carpet was being cut out and made. Go to BAI
LIE'S and look around, even if you do not want
to buy. To soc such grand things ls well worth
the trouble And pray take the trouble also to
read the advertisement of JAB. G. BA;UK A E^Q.
in anothor column.
And also that of
MRS. TWEEDY,
At whose shop we saw Bonnets, Hats, Caps, Frin
ges, Buttons, and Millinery Articles in general,
such as we never saw before. If any one wants
a bonnet of perfect lovolinc?:s, or fringes and but
tons of exquisite beauty and novelty, let ulm or
her repair straightway to Mrs. TWEEDT'S. And
what abo bas made undor her own eye, ls quite as
tasteful as what she imports.
And wbero did wei soe, or imagine wo saw, a
sudden burst of sunbenras? *t

And whe.ro did wo find tho most choice Books

This courteous and obliging gentleman holds forth
a fow doors above the Augusta Hotel, and an
hour in Augusta cannot be more pleasantly or
profitably spent than in looking over his attrac

the large supplies ot illustrated and embellished
literature that QUINN now has on hand, every
trune may be gratified. For those who want a
Comic Paper to beguile 'he journey homewards,
QUINN'S is the place pttr excellence.
-And now we must cease. And without the half
hoing told. Wo have said nothing about the de
lightful drives through the beautiful Sand Hills,
and nothing about the Cemetery which is so lovely,
and which does so much credit to the city; and
nothing about the sugary- glories of Mrs. Fred

lous glories of Schneiders, or the musical and
literary glories ol Sohreinor's or Oates's. Never

enough to form five regiments of angels, must
have visited the temple of fashion kept by H. F.
RUSSELL k Co. under the Augusta Hotel. We
know all abouL it, for wo infested the parlor win
dows to gu rc at tho lovely stream; we saw it
flowing in, and we saw it flowing out. Nor wore
we surprised, for H. F. RUSSELL k Co. havo one
of tho most brilliant Dry Goods Establishments
in tho whole South. Read what they say for
themselves in another column.
PARISIAN STYLE.-Handsome young men

Clothing Store and Tailoring Establishment of
KENNY k QUAY, NO. 2.13 Broad Street, Augusta,
under the Central Hotel, where all the GRAYS
most do congregate. It is a bran new concern,
scarcely yet swept and garnished. G KAY is tho
youngest brother of the G KAYS, while KENNY
but who that used to deal with Horu k NEWBY,
and non.i, WISE k Co., docs not know KENNY?
They have as splendid an assortment of Ready
Mada Clothing, Broad Cloths, Cassimcres, Velvet,
Silk and Woolen Vosting.', Dressing Gowns,

Underclothing, Socks, Toilet Article*, and Mascu

Atlantic; and as cheap an assortment too os ever
came over that samo ocean. KENNY k GRAY are
among tho.-o whole-souled sons of the Emerald
Isle spoken of elsewhere ; but no brogue will bo
found in their advertisement in another part of
to-day's Ad cert i ter.
"THE NIMBLE PENNY IS BETTER THAN
THE SLOW SHILLING."-Wo do not know
who said that first. ? It sounds, however, very
much as if it carno out of old Ben Franklin's
famous and mean boqk, "Poor Riehard." But
that's neither hero nor there. I. SIMON k BROTUER,
the popular and fashionublo Clothing Merchants
of Augusta, are the. men who say it at present*
And when they say it, they mean something good
hy it. Just road their advertisement-anew ? ne
just rccoivod by ns. It ia a specimen of tho
eur lota frlicita*. And at first glance, their adver
tisements would always seem to. bo written by
' false prophets, but wbon you read carefully, you
find nothing but strict truth. Do you wish to re
plenish your wardrobes ? If so, repair-immedi
ately to the brothers SIMON.
GROCERIES FOR THE MILLION.-Oho of
the most prominent and popular, us well as one
of the oldest, Grocery Establishments in tho City
of Augusta, is that of JOHN M. CLARK k SONS,
278 Broad Street, old stand of Estes k Clark.

JENNINGS, WARD k SMITH.-By a look
at our advertising columns, it will bo seen tbatan
important new Commission and Waretiovuo firm
has been founded in Augusta. Wo have only to
say that tho JENNISOS of this firm is tho " JKKK"
whom all Edgcfiold pooplo know and like.
Tho business of this establishment will, we aro
well assured, be conducted with fidelitv and the
highest Integrity and reliability; and we will bo
much mistaken if it does not occupy in a very
short timo the position of ono of tho woll-rooog
nized institutions of tho city.
McCALLA k TATE.-Attention is called to
the honest and straightforward card of MCCALLA

Uii i on Meeting at DI ou ota i ti Creek.
MR. EDiT0R^T*have noticed some int.resting
meetings in the paper, and great revival ii fluenco
in different sections of the District. Bat I have
not seen any that came np to 'ours at Mountain
Creek. It was one of the best raoetings l ever
witnossed iu my life. Some *of the oldest men
about there says the same. It- lasted Seventeen
days, and eighty whites, and twenty colored
were added to the Church, (including ono or two
days meeting sicco that time) making just one
hundred members. Surely " tho God of Jacob
>was with us." It was a union meeting of Baptists
and Methodists. Both denominations met day
after day, and in the bonds of love and affection,
" poured out their complaints" together. Until
thc mercies of God were showered upon the peo
ple. "How pleasant and delightful for brethren
to dwell together in unity."
Among the many converts, tbore were several
young men, tho most promising of tho country,
who wero rcgulsr soldiers, for the defence of their
country, and who now have become soldiers of
tho cross of Christ. It is a pleasing thing to see
the youths of this ChUtiun land, coming (as it
were) in ono great phalanx, to combat aguinst
" the world, thc flesh, and the devil."
I also attpoded a meeting at Bethel of six days,
which resulted in eleven accessions to tho Church.
A gracious timo it was.
There have been various protracted meetings for
the lust two months in different portions of the
District, and all that I have attended were favored
with revival influences. I have witnessed nearly
ono hundred and fifty accessions during that time.
' " Oh that mon would Praise tho Lord tor bis
wonderful works among the children of men."
" Our prayer to God, for Israel is that they might
be saved." May all good Christians contiaue to
pray for the advancement of " the blessed King
dom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen."

A New and Grand Epoch in Medicine.
DR. MAOGIEL is thc founder of a new Medical
System ! Tho qnantitarians, whose vast interna*
doses enfeeble thc stomach and paralyze the bow
els, must give precedence to the mau who restores
health und appetite, with from one to two of his
extraordinary Pills, and cure.? the most virulent
sores with a box or so of his wonderful and all
healing Balve. These two great sp?cifies of the
Doctqr are fast superseding all tho stereotyped
nostrums of thc day. Extraordinary cures by
Maggiol's Pills and Stive have opened t o eye.?
of rho public to tho inefficiency of the (so-called;
remedies, of others, and upon which people have
so long blindly depended. Maggiel's Pills arc
not of the class that ore swallowed by the dozen,
and of which every box full taken creates an ab
soluto necessity for aaothor. Ono or two of Mag
giel'a bills sudioos to plaoe tho bowels in perfect
order, tono the stomach, or?ate an appetite, and
render tho spirits light and buoyant! There is
no griping, and no rchcMon in- the form of con
stipation. If tho liver is affected, its functions
arc restored ; and if Ibo nervous system is feeble,
it is invigorated. This last quality makes the
medicines very desirable for the wants of delicate
females. Ulcerous and eruptivo diseases au lite
rally extinguished by the disinfectant power of
Moggi'el's Salvo. Io fact, it is h?rc announced
that Mnggiel's Millions, Dyspeptic anti
