Cotton, I
AM)
Exchange, I»rulvCT.
rfVHE subscriber has taken an office in
JL the building lately occupied by
Messrs Stewart & Hargraves, on the north
side of Broad-street, opposite to the Post-
Office—where he ofltis his services in
tile above business, and hopes, by strict
personal attention, to obtain the patron
age of his friends and the public.
The great facilities afforded by brokers
in commercial operations generally,render
it remarkable that the merchants of Au
gusta and the planters have long sustain
ed the inconvenience of having none, and
particularly a Cotton Broker. In almost
every other cotton mart the business is
principally done by brokers ; and hence
the ease, certainty and dispatch with
which it is executed. The same system
is perfectly practicable here. The mer
chant, by applying at ihe office of the sub
scriber, may hereafter save himself the
trouble of sampling his cotton and looking
up a purchaser;—the planter need be no
longer involved in doubt and difficulty to
ascertain the true state of the market,
nor subject himself to the caprice of the
wary speculator—and the purchaser will
at all times know where to resort for cot
ton the market price.
Office Regulations relative to
Cotton.
1st 1 In order to give time for sampling,
citizens offering cotton are requested to
eave the ware-house receipts by eight
o’clock, a. m.—ls left later than nine, sales

If more convenient, the receipts may he
enclosed in a letter of instructions, and
dropped in the letter box the night pre
vious.
2d. Colton will be sampled and ‘receiv
ed from wagons till ten o’clock, a. m.—
if offered after that hour, sales cannot be
realized till next day.
3d. Warehouse expenses will invariably
be deducted from the account sales.
4th. Sales will commence ajt ten o’clock
and close at twelve, a. m.
sth. Persons choosing to limit and lim
iting higher than the market, will have
their receipts returned them on paying
6J cents fora bag entry and sampling.
6th. Commissions on sales, 25 cents a
bale
Orders from the country, en
closing the warehouse receipts, will be
promptly executed.
Stock Exchange and
Brokerage,
In their Various liranehes,
Will be attended to at all limes during of
fice hours, which will be from eight o’-
clock a. m. till two o’clock r. m. and from
