Weather and Crops. The “Oldest Inhabitant” recollects no such season as we have had in Middle Florida for several weeks —we might say months past. The “drought” which usually comes in May, this year came not at all. In lieu thereof the whole spring was so far as respects rain highly seasonable. And when summer came, in stcap of a diminution we have an increase of wet. There has been scarcely a dry day for a month past —the last week averaged two hard showers a day. Our friends abroad will inquire what is the effect of all this on the crops? 1 n regar dto corn, the venerable gentleman above mentioned says, he has never seen a finer com crop. And really what we have observed in several coun ties convinces us that he is right. Os Cotton the general report is, (except where the grass has been utterly unmanage- t able,) that it is extravagantly fiourising—far J two much so, for the satisfaction of sagacious | planters. “Too much weed and too few bolls,” j even should there be no caterpiller, which i every one confidently fears, it is not thought the yield of Cotton will be large. But in re gard to Corn there can be no mistake—an abundant harvest seems certain.— Tallahassee (Florida ) Journal , I.2 th inst. Wistar’s Balsan of Wild Cherry. Scarcely a day elapses in which we do not re- ‘ ceive some new testimonial in favor of Wistar’s | Balsam. The subjoined was sent us yesterday by j an entire stranger, who could have been influenced by no selfish motives. New Hampton, April, 6, 1846. Mr. Fowle:—Dear Sir-Having beentroublcd about four years with pains in my side and stomach, and j after trying various remedies but to no effect, I tried the Balsam of Wild Cherry, which gave me immediate relief, and I can hereby assure the pub lic, that in my opinion, it is the best medicine for Lung and Consumptive complaints which has ever been introduced to the public, and I judge from my own experience.

Every plant and flower in the universe teaches us by its simple power in the cure of diseases —that none of God’s creations are in vain. As numerous and various as the products of the vegetable king dom, are the diseases to which man is subject— and surely we may believe that in the great cabi net ot Nature which is opened to us, every one of these ills may find its balm. Let hundreds then who have given themselves up to despair still hope. In Sands’ Sarsaparilla has been discovered a certain remedy for many diseases which have hith erto baffled all skill, In cases of Scrofula, Chronic Rheumatism, obstinate Ulcers, and diseases which hrise from an impure state of the Wood, it never fails. For further particulars and conclusive evidence •of its superior value and efficacy, see pamphlets, which may be obtained from agents, gratis. Prepared and sold, wholesale and retail, by A. B. A D.

MOBILE, 'July 1 1' market dur ing the past week has been very firm but *he trans actions have been on a more, iitjftifed scale than the week preceeding. During the early part of the week the views of holders were above those of purchasers, and in anticipation of daily later for <Mgn advices, neither party Was disposed to yield. The non-arrival of these advices until Sunday had the effect ot keeping the market in a quiet state during the first four days of our commercial week, though the limited sales made were at prices to cent above our last last week’s figures. On Sunday Liverpool accounts by the Caledonia to the 19th ult. came to hand, showing an improvement of Jd in cotton, and a further decline in breadstuff* since the sailing of the steamer of the 4th alt. There had also been an improvement in the monetary af fairs of England, and the growing crops were pro mising. These favorable circumstances had im- Earted confidence to the commercial community ighly favorable to business and trade. The sales of cotton in Liverpool for the week ending the 18th ult. amounted to 36,460 bales, at an advance of Jd on American descriptions, and the stock on hand was estimated at 501,0<J0 baies, against 723,000 same time last year. This favorable news confirm ed the pretensions of holders in our market, and buyers came forward yesterday and took about 1200 bales, at the figures given below, which are about 3 cent advance from those given last week. Good middlings are principally in demand and readily command 10 cents. The sales of the week amount to 3500 bales, in daily transactions as fol lows: Wednesday GOO, Thursday 1000, Frida’y UK), Saturday 400, Monday 200 and Tuesday 1200.

Gardner, editor of the Southern Shield, Eufaula, Ala. I Another Life saved by the Cordial, after I Physician’s slcill had failed to benefit. Dr. Woodruff —Dear Sir: I take great plea sure in testifying to the efficiency of your Dysen terey Cordial from testing its virtues" in my own family. Mrs. Gardner was last summer most vio lently attacked with that disease, and after a!! emi nent medical skill had been battled in its efforts to remove the disease or afford relief, and apprehen sions began to be felt by myself, that she would not survive much longer, under the intense agony ijj which she was laboring, I had recourse to your in valuable Cordial, and before she had taken one bottle of it, relief was obtained; and after taking two, was eutirely cured. I feel sure that lam in debted to it, for'her life. Y'ou can use this as vou rhay see proper. BENJ. GARDNER. Eufaula, Ala. July 15, 1847. WORMS I WORMS I! WORMS! T!

Flournoy, Editor of the Columbus Enquirer, says in regard to it; Having made trial of the Razor Strop Paste for some 5 or 6 months, I am satisfied that it is all that a stiff bearded man can require to put his dull razor in complete order. When I purchased a box of this Paste I had no faith in its superior qualities, but experience has convinced me that it is entitled to all the celebrity it has obtained; the article is a first rate thing and no mistake.

Through Ticket from Charleston to Baltimore for Fourteen Dollars , meals included. THE Chesapeake Bay Company, in conjunc tion with the Wilmington and Petersburg Rail Road Companies, having reduced their seve ral fares one-third, from former rates, Travellers going North, can now reach Baltimore for 514, and New Y'ork for 520, by taking the Bay Line of Boats, arriving at the latter city as early as by any other Line, and with greater ease and comfort, as the following Schedule will show. SCHEDULE. From Charleston to Baltimore, by the well known route, via Wilmington, Weldon, Petersburg, City- Point, Old Point Comfort, Norfolk, and by the Ches apeake Bay to Baltimore. Leave Charleston in one of the Wilmington and Raleigh Rail Roan Company’s splendid Steamers at quarter past 3 P. M. daily, arriving at Wilming ton at 7 A. M. next morning. Leave Wilmington at 9 A.

Fare from Petersburg to Baltimore supper included, $4. iln the putting forth of the above Schedule,we have been guided and admonished by the knowledge we have of what other lines have already suffered in giving the Traveller false information respecting their Schedule time, and have, to the best of our I knowledge and belief, made an average time of the i arrival and departure between Charleston and Baltimore, by the Bay Route, for the last two months, during which period there has not been a single failure, by the Boat, to arrive at Baltimore in time to take the Morning Train for Philadelphia and the several Routes going North, South, Last, and West. The Bay Company have been in exlstance up ward of Twenty Y'ears.and through this long period, their Boats, built expresslly for the route, have suc cessfully run without loss of Lite or Property— this fact alone should, and we believe will, be satis factory to the Travelling Public, that the Chesa peak Bay Route is one of the safest in the whole Union. We were prepared and fully expected to meet with strong opposition from the Monopoly Line, but had hoped that the warfare would have been con ducted in a business like and honorable way, and that their Cards would have contained none of that misrepresentation and false inuendoes with which | they afe filled againsj the Bay Line. However, we care not, knowing that we have the cheapest and most pleasant route; pledging ourvclves to convey the travelling public by our scheldule,we are willing to abide the issue and leave the result to their choice. Any further information will be cheerfully given and tickets can be had, by application to the under signed at the Charleston Hotel. WM. STRINGER, Agent for the Chesapeake Bay Company.
