Oximn.—Several communications are omitted this week on account of our editor-in-chief not being present to pass upon them. This we deem justice to all parties. On* contributors and communicants are 'requested to get their matter in the office by of before Monday. This will be apt to Insure Its publication In the succeeding issue. The following are the latest Charles ton cotton quotations: Good ordinary....» 91 3 Low middling 10 3 8 Middling 10 6 8 Good middling 11 7 8 When yoU vlel* Augusta, go to Quinn’s Book-store t at this popular house you will And everything that is to be bad In a first class book and sta tionery Btofe. Give, him a call-^you can’t help liking him. Thk niU to Anvk&ris A—A very suc cessful merchant in a large New Bog* land city once remarked : “I always advertise most when times are dull. In busy seasons It Is only necessary to keep my name before the public ; I am sure to get my share of the spontane ous traffic. But when business is light then I fulminate my broadsides of spe cial bargains, and then is just the time when special bargains are sought for.” . —- James Stognkr.—In another column you will flqd the advertisement of this gentleman, who offers special Induce ments to those wishiug anything in his line. Among other things he Is agent for tbe celebrated Centennial Gin, which Is acknowledged by all to he tbe beet In use. We take pleasure In re commending this gentleman to the notice of our farmers. They could not do better anywhere not spend their money to greater advantage than with him. Dh. J. : . fi. MikHotis—We take great pleasure in cailiug the attention of our readers to tbe card of this young gentleman, who as we have pre viously stated, graduated at Philadel phia some time since. We know Mr. Milhouse personally and can assure our readers, that he is a young' man of Ocuji Bora FarauntB.—It will be seen by reference to the advertise ment elsewhere that Mr. J. E. Stead man, of BiackVille, pas been appelated agent for the sale of this celebrated fertiliser. Mtv Steadman Is Well known throughout thU whole section of country, and tbe company have act ed wisely in their selection. We oan safely recommend this fertllixer to ou£, fanners, knowing that Mr. Steadman would not recommend and offer for sale an inferior at tide. Visit t» AMftttsUL Weep eat several doyk Very pleas, antly in Augusta last week, and from what we saw, ws will venture to say that, In proportion to its ail*, Augusta does as much or more business than any dty In the South. In other words it is a solid town on a solid basis ; It is none of your mushroom concerns, which grow Up rapidly at obe time only to sink more rapid still at anoth. er. It is one of thos® towbs which have grown slowly and sUrely for many years past. While there, we met mahy of the merchants and leading men of the city, and taking them upon the whole, they are tbe moat courteous abd gen- tlemebly class of men It h«s ever been our pleasure to meet. We will not soon forget the kind attention paid us while In their city. We saw many thisgs which would Interest our readers, but as time and space forbid us from enlarging On the many objects of interest and attrac tion in this enterprising city we there fore desist from sayiig more at pres ent.
