The imouuts though small to each indi vidual subscriber are very large Ju the aggregate to us. We seldom call attention to these matters iu our columns, preforing to send out regular statements, under cover by mail to each subscriber. Hut as so many delinquents are on our books, and as it takes a great deal »of money to run a newspaper we must earnestly urge a prompt settlement of all ccouuts. At the approaching term or* Court the following important case yill be tried, in which a long array of able counsel are engaged. The case is entitled the Atlantic, Western & Nar row Gauge liailroad, versus the Au gusta, Edgefield 6c Newberry Narrow Guage Railroad. These roads cross each other in eleven places in an area of ten miles in Aiken County. The question at issue is who is eptitled to the rigiit ofaway. Roth roads are now enjoined from work by order of Judge Aldrich. The ease will be tried before Judge Witherspoon, and involves the existence of one or the other of the roads. The counsel for the plaintiff are Messrs. Weils, Orr, and Morgan of ^reenville, and M. L. Bonham, of kbbeville. For defendants, Hender- >n Bros., of Aiken, and W. TGary, of i Augusta. i n. about u debt oi : Lewla was sh< ! WiilUu*. B »t j Lewis had f^r j rnontiis iu tbe j ; srravf;b''i ease ‘»J .

We think tho earthquake did more for the churches than the preachers could do in a whole year. One who had not been to church in a long while prom ised God that if she was spared untiil the next day she would join the church and she kept her word. A great many have confessed that it was the earthquake that put them to think ing. Ath Snndav In August, Revs Mr. Horton %v.. H.

Two of our Sunday-School scholars were among them, Misses Leela and Laura Brown. Several more of our school joined tiie Montmoreuci Church, I don’t know how many. I will say in conclusion that I hope that the earthquake did as much to ward moralizing the people in other parts of the country as it did hero. Red Branch — A Card.

It speaks well for the credit of our local institutions that within the last few days, a block of the stock of one of our leading Savings Banks sold at the high premium of 150, its par value being 100. We allude to the stock of the Augusta Savings Bank, the inter ests of which have always been most closely guarded, and which is perhaps one oi the most prosperously managed banks in the South. Besides a paid up capital stock, which is invested in City of Augusta Bonds, and a large and steadily accumulating surplus, the stockholders of this Bank are in dividually liable, and depositors can feel that their money is secure beyond a doubt. Parties .who want to save their means for a good investment, or persons who want to get interest ou money, cannot put it to a better use an i advantage than by depo- t ngBit v ith theAugusta Savings Bank,which pays five per cent interest which it compounds semi-annually. Be sides its admirable officers, the Finance Committee of the Bank is composed of Mr. E. J. O’Conner, Chairman, Messrs. W. B. Young ana E. R. Derry, and no more efficient com iniitee can be found. We doubt if the stock of any Savings Institution in tiie South is at a higher premium than ;>ur own Augusta Savings Bank.— Auyustu Chronicle.
