Of Congress denying to the foreigner
the privileges Of citizenship, until he

SHARP PRACTICE following is about

SHARP PRAcrIcE-The following is about
as sharp an operation as We ever recollect
Of reading:
Not long since Capt. WEIGH and others of
Madison, Ind. purchased the Scoto No. =
for SC. OOO The writings were all drawn,
duly signed and fixed, but no money advanc.
ed. Pending the consummation of this sale
they bargained with the owners of the w.
A. Eaves to buy her too, and sell or swap
the Scioto to them. The owners of the
Eaves wanted the ScioLo, and agreed to
give their boat and $4,000 for the latter, it
being stipulated in the trade that the Scioto
should be in good repair and running trim.
The trade was duly made. but the Scioto
was not exactly in good order, and Captain
Welch put something like 5000 worth of
repairs on her. and she was then accepted
ell right. Now Capt. Welch has Just sold
the w. A. Eaves for $4,000, after running
her few weeks, to Captain Vanwinkle. for
the White river trade. By this steamboat
speculation, sale, swap and exchange, he
has. without investing single dollar, except
the money in fixing up the Scioto, retired
from the river with over IS 900 sure in his
pocket-right sharp steamboat trade, all
in . week or two.-Mo. Rep.

Of sharp shooting between coquette and

The lover, not TO be out done, replied as
follows:
The charge, dear girl, is easily forgiven

RETURNED 10 SLAvERY.-G. w. Brasher, of
this vicinity. has at work upon his farm
negro man who has had two years expert
ence Of a life in some of the Northern States
and Canada. The negro is named Lewis
He ran away more than two years ago and
recently of his own accord returned to the
service Of Mr.. Brasher. He says that in the
States Of Michigan and Ohio men would
employ him. but when he would ask them
for pay they would tell him to begone, or
they would write to his master. In Canada
he was paid for his work, bnt it was 80 lit
tie that his earnings and stealings could
hardly support life. When he came back
he told his master that he wanted to receive
a good whipping, and serve him the rest Of
his days. He preferred to come back to
slavery and risk being taken down South
and sold and put on cotton plantation
than to enjoy negro liberty in Ohio, Mich
igan or Canada What q nice nut is this

A. A. CLARK e. SON,

A. A. CLARA & SON,
Aungnss9hs @S0PgaRe
EpEG to return their sincere thanks to the citi-
ND zens If Edgefrld for their very liberal pat
ronage for the last five years, and to inform them
that they are still prepared to furnish PIANOS
from TuB VERY BEST MAKERS AT LOWER PRICES
than can bc got elsewhere
Our attention has recently been called to the ad-
vcrtiSement Of dealer who seems desirous of as
suming the guardianship of the public by telling
them not to buy OF "pedlars or agents "-but Of
ham! AS we have had no store in Augu.ts for
two years, and have been selling all the time in
the District, we presume it is intended for U.S. and
in this connection will give our reasons for discon-
tinuing our store there. They are these;
1st We are at no expense, having no store rent
clerk hire, nor heavy board to pay, and can there
fore sell lower tn IN any other house.
2ndly We can sell more by it. And there is
where the shoe pinches. In the last five years we
have sold more Pianos in this District than all eth
er houses in Augusta and Charleston, and We are
willing that our claims to public patronage should
be decided by any one that VIC have sold. Can
the proprietor OF the Emporium " say as much?
We sell no Pianos that can be bought back in q
gear or so at half price!
We give our own and the makers written guar
antee that the Pianos are perfect in every respect
anil are ready at any time to come up to them.
We see every Piano put up at home and attend
to them year free OF charge.
IN conclusion, we would say that we are still
buying and vel ing on our own responsibility from
the makers we always dealt with, viz Jacob
Chickering; lIalbert, Davis & Co.; A. W. Ladd &
Co., and others.
We sell at the manufacturers RETAIL PRICES,
and any one buying from us may res. assured that
they are getting as good as the best and as cheap
as the cheapest; snd that they are getting them
fresh from, the manu- factory.
az Orders addressed to us at Augusta, Ga,
will meet with prompt attention.
s5y- We still continue to TUNE and REPAIR
PIANOS, and will tend to calls in any part Of
the District.
