Winter Goods are attracting the attehaon

AUGUSTA ADVERTISEMENTS.

We touched at Augusta on our return
from New York, and found it full Of busi

self proudly, as IF conscious of being one
of the fairest jewels in the crown of free

brightness, gaiety, fashion, beauty, taste,
Augusta certainly has no equal in the
Southern Atlantic States. Her business
MN are people who do not slumber nor
sleep at their work. Let us call few of
them to your minds.

A REMINIsENCE OF CAPTAIN COL
VOCORESS.
Norwich Bulletin of June 18th. I

Norwich Bulletin of June l5th.l
-. The brave old tar, Captain ColvocOresses,
who was brutally murdered at Bridgeport,
Monday night, was during the latter part
of the late war, in command of the little
sloop-of war St. Mary's, which comprised
nearly all the effective force of the usually
powerful Pacific Squadron He chaneed
to be on duty in Valparaiso, when that
port was menaced by powerful Spanish
squadron under the command of Admiral
Pinzon, and was exceedingly active in his
efforts to protect the rights and property
of American cicizens. For HE success,
Of we'll as for famous correspondence with
the Spanish Admiral, be will be long
remembered there. Somewhat inexplicab.
fy, he sailed in one morning from a short
cruise outside, and anchored the St Mary's
directly in front of the business portion of
the city, and between it and the iron clad
ships of the Spanisrd Piuzon saw the
aukwardness of the situation, and in
Enthusiastically arrogant note informed
him that be had better move his corvette,
IS he intended to lombard the place, and
would not be answerable for any damages
that might result. This aroused the ire
Of the Greek, and be fastened to inform
the Spanish Admiral, in language that was
> model of explicitness and force, that the
st Mary's was anchored to his perfect
satisfaction, and would remain where she
was, adding further:
"ln the event of q bombardment of the
city, beg you, sir, to have a care that
none Of your shot touch the hull OF the St.
Marys. am perfectly aware of the
weakness OF my corvette in comparison
With the powerful squadron of her most
eatnoilc Majesty now blockading the port,
but beg, sir, to remind you that the Gag
that floats at her peak represents, 5000
guns on the sea.

TIE Chicago Inter- Ocean appears this
week in an entire new dress and printed
upon much larger sheet. This proof of
success, after an existence Of less than nine
months, is something unexampled in jom-
nalistic enterprise. 1t was started in March
last as representative Republican news
paper of the great Northwest, and perhaps
no one thing demonstrates the success with
which it has borne that character more
than the fact that its subscription list has
grown to such proportions that its proprie-
tor is compelled TO discard the four-cylin-
der Hoe press on which it has been printed
for an eight-cylinder machine. The Inter
Ocean has been an effective exponent Of
Republican principles during the recent
campaign. and it is evidently only at the
beginning of long and prosperous career.

POSTAL IELGERAPEs.

The proposition to place the telegraph in
the same relation to the postoffice depart
ment as the ordinary means Of transmit
ting intelligence, is one clearly demanded
by the progress of the age, and the require
ments of business. We cannot conceive Of
any legitimate opposition to this measure.
Every argument brought against it might
he urged with equal weight against mails
being carried by steamboats, or rail-cars.
The enemies Of the proposed measure are
those interested in maintaining most grew
GUS monopoly. The masses Of the peo-
pie, and oil men who are doing legitimate
business, must favor cheap telegraph.
Tho bugbear Of the opposition is the
control Of he telegraph By gopaanent.
But that is not essential to the Postal
Telegraph. The plan brought to the at
tehtion Of Congress by the Hon. Gardner
Hubbard, of Massachusetts, and which is
especially favored now, does not do this.
1t simply contracts with telegraph COM
pany to copy messages at certain rates, the
government using its present postal organi-
zation to deliver them. 1t follows the
analogy Of the present system in every
thing but the mode of transmission. The
government furnishes room in each large
0 flee and uses its carriers, and thus mate
rally cheapens the cost of messages.

The construction Of a ship canal "below
the Mississippi river, will be the subject of
q conference which Governor Smith, Of
Georgia, has invited the Governors Of
Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri and
other States to participate in at some future
day in Atlanta. Certain rivers will consti-
tute four-flths of the entire distance,
which, it is said, will be three hundred
miles shorter than by any other route, and
over which a ton OF freight can be trans
ported from st. Louis to the Atlantic for
four dollars and Lightweight cents.
Government aid is to be sought for the
scheme, in furtherance of which bill was
at the last session introduced in the House
of Representatives and referred to the
Committee on Commerce and fayorably
considered there. There are other schemes,
all based on the necessity for better facili-
ties for transporting the inland commerce
of the country, and for government inter-
position and aid. The agitation Of the
question will sooner or later result in some
thing tangible; for it is not prcsumablo
that so many millions of people, tens of
millions Of commerce, and other tens Of
millions invested in lands and otherwise,
will remain quiet without market and
remunerating prices. 1t is the coming
question which will find an answer-rather
will answer itself.

TUESDAY EVE'G, NOV. 20, 1872.
PREVENTING GERMAN ENIGs ALTON
TO AMERICA.

The rigorous measures lately taken by
the Emperor of Germany to stem the tide
Of emigration from his dominion, in pro-
hibtins the railroad companies from trans
porting emgrant passengers unless full
rates are paid for both them and their bag
gage, are attracting general comment.
The principal reason Of the decree appears
to be based on the fact that the emigration
embraces large numbers Of young men
anxious TO avoid the military service Of the
empire,
1t is probable, however, that instead Of
checking the tide of emigration, as intend
ed, tho stringent measures adopted by the
Emperor will serve rather to increase it !;
all the more for the reason that the peace Of
Europe is by no means secure, and that
there is no telling at what moment n levy
may be made upon the young and enter
prsing subjects of the warlike old monarch,
10 make them food for powder.
1t is also stated that the Emperor intends
hereafter to enforce, no matter at how re.
mote period, the full penalties Of tho con.
scription law against oil persons who may
return TO their native country. This, how
ever, does not seem probable. We believe
the principle Of the right of the people of
Prussia to select their own nationality, was
fully conceded a year or two ago by the
German government as well as by that OF
Great Britain, in treaties between those
countries end the United States.
1t is somewhat noticeable fact that the
decree appears to have been issued at a
time when Bismarck was Frustrated by
illness, and compelled, for the time being, to
relinquish the direction of public affairs.
Late accounts report him as being measur-
ably restored to health, and it is not inn
possible that the remonstranees which this
sagacious and far-seeing statesman will be
pretty sure TO address to his royal master
concerning the matter may lead TO the
abrogaton Of his short-sighted and narrow
policy.
