A New Feature I'm Augusta.

The Germans have become II power in
Augusta. And in our opinion it is hap
py for city when the Germans do be-
come power therein. They have or
ganized Shooting Club, bought a fine
tract.of land about mile from the city,
beautified it, built large and fine edifice
upon it; and on Monday last formally
opened It as Schuctzen Pldtz-Shooting
Ground. 1t seems to have been quite an
interesting gala occasion-two of the Fire
Companies fraternizing very cordially.
There were banner presentations, and
rifle presentations, and speeches, and
fluctuations, and meat, and wine, and
woman, and song, and the dance. The
President of the Club is that popular,
vastly, and splendid-bass-singing gentle
man, Mr.. Charles Spaeth. Mrs. Spaeth
presented a handsome green kilt, ex-
quisite1y embroidered in silver, to be
worn by the Ensign of the Club.
So, every spring now, we can HE tc
Augusta to the German .Schuetsen-FeSt
We love the Germans, and congratulate
our friends of Augusta upon thus keep
ing up the manly sports and beautiful
social traits of their Fatherland.

A New Novel.

LORD HOPES CHOICE, Mrs. Ann S.
Stephens new novel, has just been pub
lished by T. B. Peterson & Brothers,
Philadelphia, Pa, and will meet with a
very large sale, for Mrs. Stephens stands
among the first of our American novel
lists, always teaching good moral, and
writing in fascinating manner. The
scenes and characters in "Lord Hopes
Choice'' are mostly English, the parties
coming from their home to New York
under assumed names, on account of
family difficulties. Lady Hope, or Mrs.
Hurst, as she chooses to call herself,
leaves England and flies to this country,
because she knows her husband has
transferred his affections to their child's
coyerness, handsome and highly ac.
complished lady, aemed Rachel Gloss.
Lady Hope brings her daughter Clara
then but two Years old-with her; and,
in order to make her concealment more
secure, gives the child into the care Of
Elizabeth Yates, an old, faithful, family
servant, and her foster mother. The
Yates's are very poor, and live in a tene-
ment house AS soon as Lady Hepe
leaves England, her husband and the
governess follow-he hoping to be able,
without difficulty. to obtain divorce
from his wife. He loses no time in dis
covering her place Of concealment, and
socks her consent to the divorce by
threatening to take their daughter. Mrs.
Hurst struggles for her child, and dies
in her attempt, rather than see this ac-
complished. During the confusion of
this scene, the child, frightened, crawls
through. the darkness into the street,
where she is picked up hours after by
old Mrs. Yates, the foster-mother, and
carried to her own homo. A few days
previous to this, Mrs. Hurst, fearing
events would develop rapidly, gave a
box of malachite, Of great value, con-
tanning the farnily:diamOnds, and money
to large amount, to Mrs. Yates, with
instructions for their disposal in case OF
her death. That night, a som of Mrs
Yates was seen coming out Of Mrs.
Hurst's house, and rs soon as the murder
was discovered, this fact. being known,
together with the acknowledgment OF
the box in their possession, the crime
was tried. The mother, III order to save
her son. falsely swc;rs ~ having COM
mitted the murder herself, and for which
she is sentenced for life to hard labor.
Lord Hope, fearing he might be impli-
Gated in the murder Of his wife, secretly
lnarrics the geveruess Rachel Gloss, and
leaves for his estates in England, taking
with him his daughter Clara, etc. but
we must leave the rest for the reader to
find out. 1t will prove to be immensely
popular.

Homestead Decision.

A very important decision (says the
Sumter Neacs) was made in the Common
Pleas for Sumter County at the late
Term, in the case of Kirby VS.. Woods:
The plaintiff was represented by j. j.
Fleming, Esq, and the defendant by
Messrs. Richardson q Son. The matter
came up under fsuleagainst the Sheriff,
on motion of plaintiff, and the argument
was heard on the motion to make the
Rule absolute, ii. e.) requiring the sher
ift' to sell in October next, defendants
homestead. The Judge Hon. j. T. Greene,
granted the motion, and signed the or
der to that effect; thus ruling in accord
ance with the decision of the U. S. Su-
preme Court, that the Homestead law is
no defence or protection against debts con-
tracted prior to the passage Of such Act'
There remains therefore no protection
for such debtors, except in the provisions
of the Bankrupt laws. of the United States

. Now Orleans shining is one thousand

at New Orleans, shipping is one thousand
miles further from Europe than it would
be at Savannah. Besides, the rates Of
ship insurance from the Gulf Ports are
nearly double those charged from the
South Atlantic Ports. The other al
water route is partly natural and partly
artificial,-by the great lakes and the
Hudson River, and the canals of Ohio,
Inniana. Illinois, and New, York.
There are two points where Il compara-
lively small amount Of canallmg will
connect the Mississippi waters with those
of the Atlantic, viz: where the Allegany
range Separates the James River from
the Kanawha, and where it separates the
Tennessee from the rivers of Alabama
and Georgia. Both of these schemes are
old; one, or perhaps both, being attfibu-
ted to the immortal Washington (About
thirty years ago, a question was asitated
in reference to connecting the waters Of
thc Tennessee and the Saro,anah RireTs.)
The survey and estimates for the Atlantic
and Great Western Canal have BEEN
made in pursuance of an act of Congress
passed two years ago. At the same ses-
sion, an appropriation was. made for
re e.survey Of the Muscle Shoals in the
Tennessee River. XII this surveying
was completed last summer: and the
report to the Secretary of War shows
that the scheme is entirely practicable;
that the length of canalling required will
be less than the Erie Canal, main line;
and that the cost of construction Will be
less than the Erie canal enlarged, main
line. One hundred feet wildcat the water
surface, and six feet of water, with luck
chambers sixty feet broad and three hum
dred feet long between mitre-sills, are
the proposed dimensions Of this canal
The Lake shore and Michigan Southern,
one of the best managed Railroads in
America, is obliged to charge one 'sundred
dollars for freight carriage, where the
Erie Canal charges sirty-Se0en dollars
This difference is. still greater in the
South. This comparison, instituted from
sworn official returns, sets atsrest the
/ question, whether it is worth while at all
to build canals at this period of time.
The Erie Canal, by building up Central
New York, made the New York Central
Railroad, double-track, possible, and the
business of that road at this day far ex-
ceeds the most sanguine anticipations OF
| its founders, while the traffic on the
canal has grown side by side with it
from 1, 100000 of tons in 1887, to nearly
$500, 900 tons in 1871.
The mineral resources Of Georgia, Ten
nessee and Alabama are truly wonderful
Coal and iron. lime and copper, seem to
be inexhaustible. These added to the
grain and meat supplies make the con-
Meeting of the Western and the South
Atlantic waters scheme Of National
importance.
The foregoing is hardly 1.-THE of Maj.
McFarland's elaborate address, but it is
enough for our purposes. BY canal, the
freight Oh a bushel Of corn from st.
Louis to Savannah would be about il
cents; by rail, about 40 cents Whatever
makes meat and bread cheaper in Geor.
gia, would make them cheaper here.
NAV therefore write in favor of this
great Canal project, and yet cling to the
idea of
HOME IMPROVEMENT.
