Death Scene at Palme's opera.
An excited soprarw on somebody calling,
To lift op her lexer, about whom she is squalling—
Now clasping her hands and tearing her hair,
And taking an octave ol horrid despair;
Then screaming for vengence on somebody’s head,
Who has killed Benedetli uncommonly dead.
Last, all of a sudden, a howl and a stagger—
A very wild shriek and a pearl bandied dagger
To rid her of life and all its sad shocks’s—
And she dies with a smile at the beaux in the boxes.

I.ATKST DATES FROM LIVERPOOI JULY 4.
LATEST DATES FROM HAVltff JUNE 30.
SAVANNAH. July 23.— Cotton. —Arrived since
16th inst. 1008 bales Upland (140 per Rail-Road,
and 507 from Augusta and landings on the river.)
The exports for same period have been 2353 Up
lands and 503 bales Sea Island—leaving a stock on
hand and on ship-board, of 8244 bales Upland, and
516 bales Sea Islands, against 4941 bales bales Up
land, and 193 bales Sea Islands, at the same time
last year.
There has been rather more activity in the mar
ket this week, the sales amounting to 855 bales, as
follows: 27 at lot; 152 at 10$; 28 at lOg; 137 at 103;
103 at 11; 305 at 11$; 43 at 11^ —also 50 bales at 18 :
a 25 cents.
The accounts of the Britannia, (steamer of the
4th,) were received yesterday morning, which show
a heavy fall in the prices of Grain and provisions,
and an advance of $ a £d. per lb. on Cotton. The
stock of Cotton is too light in this market, and the
business too limited to enable us to make quotations.
Cam.— The sales of the week amount to about
2550 bushels at 75 a 80c. The market is well sup
plied, and since the receipt of the steamer’s ac
counts, we doubt if 70c. could be obtained for any
considerable quantity.
Flour. —The sales been small—choice lots
of Georgia have been sold at $7 per bbl.
.Hate— Is retailing from Store $1 per 100 lbs.
Sa/t. —We have no sales to notice.
Krckange. —Sterling, nominal; Sight Cheeks on
the Northern cities, £ per ct. prem ; 30 Day Bills,
perct. dis.; 60 Day Bills, 1$ dis.
Freights. —To Liverpool, nominal; to New York,
|c. per lb. for square and round bales, $1,50 per
tierce for Rice; to Boston, 9-16 for square, and |c.
for round bales; to Philadelphia, £c. for square and
round bales.
CHARLESTON, July sk—€V'o».—*There has
been more activity in the Cotton market since our
last, than for some weeks past, which is doubtless
to be attributed to the favorable accounts received
since our former publication from across the water.
On Saturday last there was not a solitary transac
tion in the article. On Monday purchasers took
between 3 and 40Q bales, at about the prices paid
during the previous week. On Tuesday the tele
graphic accounts per the Britannia came to hand,
and during the day near 700 bales were sold, and
at the close of business prices were report
ed Je. up on all qualities. The private advices
were received on Wednesday, and during that day
feme disposition was evinced on the part of buy
ers to extend their operations, but the talk of an ad
vance in the rate of freight to Liverpool, taken in
connection with the high rates required on the part
of holders, confined the operations to some 450 bales;
on Tuesday, however, notwithstanding this position
of affairs, buyers entered the market and took a
little over 1000 bales, and factory obtained prices
that they were not able to get on the preceding day.
The business of yesterday was on a much more
extensive scale, as the sales foot up fully 2000 bales;
and the transactions towards the close of the week
show a positive advance of a $ to j[c. on prices cur
rent just prior to the receipt of the steamers ac
counts. vVe subjoin the following quotations as a
fair index of the market at the close of operations
—vie : Inferior.—; ordinary to good ordinary, 10A
all; middling to good middling, 11J a mid
dling fair, 11$; f a > r an d fully fair 12 a 12$; and good
fair I2£c. The sales since our last reach 3500
bales, as follows .49 bales at 10; 27 at 10 j; 373 at
10$; 114 at ICg; 5G6 at 10|; 141 at II; 184 at 11 J,
353 at 11$; 156 at llg; 535 at 11J; 97 at Ilf; 1232
at. 11$; 15 at 11£; 93 at 12; and 566 bales at 12,$c
Eer lb. The receipts comprise 862 bales. We
ave no transactions to report in any of the descrip
tions classed under the head of Long Cotton.
Corn. —The market has been very unsettled
throughout the week, with hut a very moderate
demand from the trade. The transactions have been
confined solely to Country and Georgia descriptions.
The market opened at prices ranging from 75 to 80
cts , with and without the bags, and dropped to 70 a
68c. per bushel; and closed yesterday nominally at
65 a 68c. The receipts per Rail Road reach 5400
bushels.
Flour —The market is very unsettled, and prices
fluctuate almost daily. About 150 barrels country,
common and choice brands, at auction and at private
sale, at prices ranging from to ss.s per barrel.
Baltimore in small lots at 6£ and $7; and about 150
barrels Western at prices ranging from 6$ to $G£
per barrel.
Freights. —We have an advance to report on onr
former quotation to Liverpool, as a vessel has been
taken up for that port at for Cotton in square
bugs. A full cargo has been engaged for Havre
•1 !c. and lsc. forspuare and round bags. There
is nothing up for Boston. We quote Cotton in
square bags to New York a |c. and dull. No Rice
offering.
NEW YORK. July 21. P. M.—Coftow.-Sales 2500
bales, prices of yesterday, steady. The sales are
a .large proportion of them for shipment.
Flour is better, especially fresh ground, though
only in demand. There are numerous buyers of
fresh Genesee at $5,25, but no sellers. Good Mich
igan and Ohio $5,12, Southern, but very little
h*ere.
Wheat, 2000 bushels good new North Carolina
sold at !12£ cts.; Corn is rather better, say 56 a
6Sc.; other grains as before.
Provisions very quiet, prices unchanged; Pork
$12,50 and sls.
Cotton is shipping to Liverpool at 7-16 d lb, with
»ome engagements at £d lb.
Exchange, but little movement.

of the present month 1 have had four hundred and
eighty-three cases of this distressing complaint, and
out of this large number I have failed only in four
cases, and I can safely say the failure is on their
own side, and not mine. This medicine is now
found in all parts of this and the adjoining States,
where it is recommended by the most respectable
families, and the best recommendation is, it is prov
ing itself to be an infallible remedy for Fever and
Ague. It is my own discovery, and is one of the
best medicines ever invented for this dreadful dis
ease—curing in twelve hours. Prepared and sold

mer for more than two years, and the latter for up
wards of one year last past. I have kept an accu
rate account of the product, waste and cost of oper
ating each description of Mule, and the result is
decidedly in favor of Smith’s,
I have no hesitation in saying the Smith’s Mule
will turn off more work per spindle than, any other
now in use ; that it requires less trouble to keep it in
order, and may be kept in repair at less expense.

"COTTON GINS ! COTTON GINS!!
THE SUBSCRIBER would respectfully in
form his friends and the public that he con
tinues to Manufacture In Augusta, his celebra
ted COTTON GINS, which although not so
highly pvffed in news paper advertisements as some
others, do their work equally as good, if not better,
i He is willing to put his Gins in comparison with
any others made in the United States, and will war
> rant all Gins sent from his shop to work and wear
| well.
As regards certificates, he could fill columns
! with them, but would prefer that those in want of
a good Gin should call on him personally, or by let
ter, in which case satisfactory and numerous re
ferences can be given.
He has been engaged in the business some rears,
and has never heard a complaint of work turned out
! of bis shop, from which circumstance he has come to
j the conclusion that bis Gins have given general
I satisfaction, since their manufacture has been un
i dor his sole superintendence.

; can leave the shop, or an approved endorsed note.
