Feb. 28 -'m 1 26 TO DKIGGISTS AN 1> I>EA LERS IN MEDICINE. 50" DR WISTAU’b BALSAM OF WILD j CHERRY, the celebrated and infallible remedy 1 for the cure of Consumption, Asthma, and Liter- j Complaint was discovered some six or seven years , ago, in the city of Philadelphia, the residence ot j one of the most distinguished Physicians that ever lived. Since that time it has, by its own merits, been rapidly, surely and safely working its way through the opposition of quacks and counterfeit ers, until, by its true value and intrinsic ex cellence, it has gained for itself a most enviable popularity, and established itself in the confidence of an intelligent and enlrghted public from one end of the continent to the ollu-r. Ihe testimony of thousands who have been relieved and cured j by this valuable article, will show that it stands unrivalled—at the head of all other medicines for the cure of diseases for which it is recommended, The genuine Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cher ry is now for sale by duly appointed agents, and all respectable dealers in medicines, in all large cities and all important towns throughout the United States, Canadas and British provinces. Beware of the Syrups and oth>*r preparations of Wild ('berry, which are only imitations. Be careful and get the genuine and original Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry, signed 1. Bulls, on the w rapper. For sale in Augusta, wholesale and retail, by II V VILAND, RISLEV A CO., and also by THOM AS BARRETT A CO., and Dealers in j Medicines generally in Georgia.

COTTON—During the past week our Cotton market has exhibited much the same appearance as noticed since the arrival of I lie Sarah Sands. It whs generally supposed the advices per Cam bria wo .Id somewhat settle it, hut since they have been received, loners and sellers are nearly as wide apart in their views as ever, and the conse quence is that, the offering stock is light and " ill continue so until holders can get their a-king rales. During the past week there has been an improved inquiry, and all the lois placed on the market tor sale have been greadily snatched up at prices ranging from 1) to 10 rents for ordinary mid mid dlmg—buyer- would willingly p<V 10 cents for round and I<>l for fair in square bales, hut there is litlle of this or the finer descriptions off-ring, and holders refuse to show their sam ples of fair in square bales un 1-r li'l cents.— The high rates of f ireign and coastw ise freights causes buyers to be more indiff-rent about purchas ing than they ot terwi-e w mid be, while on ihe «-her hand, the light receipts at this point, ami the r.i|>id falling off in tlce receipts al till the ports (be ing this week 11.913 bales)gives holders morecon fi fence in the article, and they seem di-p»-el to hold on and await a change for lit- better, which n majority of th«-m think vv ill soon lake place, as it is now rendered cert tin. beyond all doubt. I bat this year’s crop will fall short of last bv some "oto 2’*0.000 hales.

APALACHICOLA, FEB 23.— Cotton.—' The receipts during the past week amount to 1,818 hales, and the exports tn 2,819, leaving >he stock on hand, including all on shipboard not cleared 43.026 bales, against 26,747 bales, same lime last ) ear. The evening previous to the close of our last weekly review, vve received bv an arrival from New Orleans, very late accounts front that place, adv ising of a heavy advance in freights and a cor responding decline jn cotton. This news not com ing to hand till late on Monday, vve were unat.le to note its i ff cl upon our rnaiket in our review of jhe next morning. As soon as it was made public, masters immediately advanced theira-king pric s to Id. for Liverpool, and the effect of this advance upon our principal staples was immedrately seen, prices giving way «to »c. During all of Tuesday, buyers absented llicni-elves from the market and the transactions were very limited, amounting to only 40 bales. Wednesday, the demand was but j slightly increased, the sales of the day so >lnig up 31i Gales Un Thursday there was a more geite i ral attendance of buyers in the market, and dn i ring the day !‘* 13 bales were d> posed of. The "Sarah s»ands” accounts by telegraph reache I us on Friday morning, previous to which however, .-ales were effected to the extent of 4 or 5 (* biles, and subsequently during the day some iOO bales im>re were disposed of ma ing a iota! f>r the day of 7.7 bales. The sales early in the morning vveie made mostly by one party who it is supposed was in po session of the accounts, from hisgieat anxie ty to sell and willingness tn ac. ej I con i ier.ihly lower rates, tl a i he had refused the day previous. The s ties after the news on Friday were generally at about ic. decline lr< in the day previous. On Saturday ihire was a fair amount of business trans acted, ihe operations of the day amounting to 653 biles, and the decline of ic. fully establt-hed.— Yesterday 436 hah s were dispojed ofal Saturday’s prices. Onr market is now about where it was after the lilt of Dec. accounts. The sales of the week amount to 3.3 0 bales, buyers lor all quarters participating in the trans actions; much the largest portion however, has been taken un foreign account. We alter onr quotations to conform as nearly as possible to the present state of the market, and b ii-ve they may be relied upon as substantially c> rrect. I. IV Klt roo 1. C LASS iFI CAT JO.V.
