CHARLijCs i’U.N, Aug 14 —Co ton. —The opera
tions in Upland at the close of the previous week
had been entirely suspended, owing partly t > the
advance which took place just after the receipt of :
the Hibernia's advices, but more particularly to the
still higher claims urged by sellers; and it can hard
ly be Said that they were resumed on Saturday last,
as the sales were limited to sorne9B bales; on Mon
day, however, purchasers yielded to a certain ex
tent to circumstances which they could not control, ,
and during the day Ike transactions teached fully
£OO hales, \\ ith an upward tendency in prices on
some classifications, but on Tuesday, and the two
succeeding days, there was a manifest disposition
on the part of purchasers to hold off, under the belief
(hat as the week advanced sellers would become
more tractable, and the sales in these threa days
we relight in this however thfcy. were mistaken.
Yesterday a fair business was done, and the week
closes with a wider margin in prices, for it will be
seen on reference to our quotations, that the midding
fair, and fairaud fully fair grades, are }c. higher than
tl 6 -e given in our report of the 7th iust. The receipts
ot tae week reach 1138 bales; and the sales in t ic
corresponding period are 2330 bales, as follows:—29
hues at IO5; 86 at 11; 143 at Up, 99 at Ilk 130 at
1 U; 200 at 1 !|; 271 at 12; 73 at 12k 213 at 12*; 58 at
I2|;680 at 12|; 92 at 12f ; 88 at 12|; 21 at 12J; and
131 bales at 13c. We havfe no transactions to record
in any of the descriptions of Long'Cctton.
Rice. —On Saturday last several parcels were
contracted for at $54 per hundred, since which time
nothing has been done* Our quotations for the
present must be considered altogether nominal.
The growing crop has been injured by a recent
freshet, which has overrun the Rice field in the'
vicinity of Ashepoo, Combahee, and other water
'courses, but it will be some weeks yet, before the
extent of the injury can be ascertained. Received
this week 698 tierces. Since the above was written,
We have been informed that a parcel of 66 tierces,
fresh beat, of good quality, was sold at $6 per hun
dred.
Com.-—-The receipts per Rail Road reach this
week 3383 bushels. We have heard of no trans
actions of any magnitude; but would refer to our
quotations for the state of the market, as to prices.
‘There is an ample supply on the market
Flour ,—The stock on sale is light, but ills at the
same time fully equal to the demand. The trans
actions of the week have been limited to small par
cels of country at prices ranging from $44 to >6,
and as high as $64 per bbl., according to quality.
Suit.— 'Fhe receipts of the week comprise 2600
racks, the bulk of which has been disposed of at
$1 15persack.
Freights. — We quote as formerly to Liverpool
viz : Cotton square bags 7-16ths a 4d. Nothing uj ,

TEXAS AGENCY.
THE UNDERSIGNED having connected
himself with the firm of WEBB, DAVIS &,
CO., of the City of Austin, as General Agents, has
opened anOtfice in the City of Galveston,(Texas,) un
der the style of A1 ERS, WEEB A CO., which, in
connectiop with the Office at Austin, will attend to
business in all parts of the State.
They w ill purchase and sell Real Estate, gene
rally, in any part of Texas ;
To the locution or sale of Land Claims ;
To the examination of Land Titles, and give writ
ten opinions as to their validity, when required ;
To the procuring of Patents from the General
Land Office, or Other documents which maybe re
quired to perfect Titles to Lands :
To the payment of Taxes upon Lands, or other
property, of non-residents or absentees;
I o the prosecution ol Claims on the late Repub
lic, recent State of T exas, for Money or Lands)
lothe settlement Os Accounts with the different
Departments of the Government;
To the collection of Foreign Debts v and to all other
business which comes within the purvieu of a
General Agency.
The Senior member of this branch of the firm,
has long been known as an active and vigilant Col
lector of Jhjbts, particularly such as have been
considered by others doubtful, or lost. He has also
been largely engaged in Land matters in various
parts of the country, and knows as well Us most
men what is necessary to be done in procuring good
Titles. ,
The Junior member of the Firm, (Mr. Upshur)
has, lor several years, been connected with the
General Land Office—and, in the performance of
the peculiar duties which devolved on him, he ac
quired as perfect a knowledge of the condition of
the land in the State as perhaps any man in it—
and is, therefore, eminently qualified for the trans
action of such business as will require the posses
sion of that description of knowledge.
The other members are practising Lawyers.
One of them has, for several years, been a practi
tioner in Texas, and has devoted much of his time
to the investigation of the Land Titles of the coun
try. He is, therefore, prepared to give opinions
which may arise respecting such Titles.
In all cases, Communications addressed to the
Firm must be post-paid, otherwise they will not bo
taken from the office; and where business is di
rected to he done, which will require the advance
inent of money, the money must accompany the in
structions.
The charges will be moderate; but as it is in
tended that business confided to the Firm shall be
transacted with the utmost promptness, even should
it require the constant attention of each of its mem
bers, it is hoped that none except those who in
tend to be equally prompt in the payment of fees,
will call upon it. DAVTD AYERS.

MOONt EAGI E TRIPOLI.
A REMARKABLE mineral, pronounced by j
■il. geologists to be a great rarity in nature, and
known to them by the name of Tripoli, has lately
been discovered in this country*, although but in one 1
bed, of very narrow-limits,nil owned by the ‘'Mount i
Eagle Manufacturing Company,” incorporated for
: the sole purpose of its manufacture.
The article is excellent for burnishing and clean- !
ing all finished metallic and glass surfaces, such as j
gold, silver, hr ar>s, Britannia and steel ware, win- !
dow glass, &c. Nothing has ever yet been discov- ;
ered equal to the pure Tripoli, and the common I

ever saw.* The genuine article is for sale by the
exclusive agent for Augusta. WM. HAINES.

EH RYE -0 COTT ON gins.
TTAIIE SUBSCRIBER respectfully informs
JL his friends and the public, that he continues to
manufacture, at
WYNNESBORO’, COLUMBIA COUNTY,
his celebrated COTTON GINS, which, by the ad
dition of a lute improvement, (Oil and Water Box
es, which far surpass Templeton Rad’s patent
boxes,) will rim from TEN. to FIFTEEN DAYS
perfectly free from heat, with one oiling w*ith Lard
and Tallow. Purchasers TAay test a Gin by pick
ing ten bales of cotton with it. and if it does not
please, may return it. My prices are Two Dollars
and Fifty Cents per saw for the FIRE-PROOF
GINS, a.nd Two Dollars and Twenty-five Cents for
the ANTI FRICTION, delivered at the residence )
of the purchaser. A Fire-Proof Gin may be seen
at the warehouse of Andres, Spears &, Wootten,
Augusta.
OLD GINS repaired at the shortest notice.
THOMAS WYNNE.
CERTIFICATES ; '
Augusta, August 5, 1847.—-We, the undersigned,
having examined a sample of Cotton said to be gin
ned by Mr. Thomas Wynne's Fire-Proof Cotton
(Jins, consider it as w'ell ginned as any cotton w'e
have seen in this market, and with a longer staple.
We have also examined the Oil and Water Boxes,
I and think them a great improvement, as the oil acts
and re-acts while running, which will keep them
free from heat, if well used.

Lard, free from heat.
Henry T. Hammock, jF. W. Finch,
Wm. S. Smith, j Jas. C. Adams,
Warren county, Feb. B th, 1847, —I do hereby cer
tify that I bought a4l saw Improved Cotton Gin
from Thos. Wynne. 1 have ginned from eight
hundred to one thousand pounds of clean cotton per
day, and I would recommend all persons in want of
a first-rate Gin to purchase of said Wynne. I got
the highest market prices in Augusta.
Nathaniel Persons,
Warm comity, Feb. Bth, 1847.—1d0 hereby certij
fy that I have one of Mr. Thomas Wynne's Anti
friction Cotton Gins, 51 saws. I have ginned three
heavy bales per day. I have ginned three crops
with it, and think it better this last than the first
crop—taking out the moats and freeing the cotton
' from nap. I have always been able to get the
> highest price in the Augusta market. I recom
mend persons who want to purchase a first-rate I
Gin to call on Mr. Wynne before they' purchase, as
1 I think they will be well‘pleased with the said
Wynne’s Gins when tried.
Thomas Persons.
Wilkes county, March 21, 1847. —I certify that I
purchased last year a Cotton Gin of Thos. Wymne,
of Columbia county, and ginned my laat crop of
cotton with it, and I can say' that it is as good as the
best Gin I ever used. My cotton last year was
worse managed than it has been for many years
previous, owing to my plantation being a distance
from where I live, and that attention was not paid
to the cotton that should have been. Notwithstand
ing, my cotton when carried to Augusta was sought
for by all the cotton buyers, owing to the neatness
of the cotton and freedom from nap and moats. I
believe there is no gins in the State from which
a better sample of cotton can be shown, Carver
. Gins not excepted.

NOTICE TO COTTON PLANTERS.
I WILL say to the cotton planters of Georgia and
South Carolina, I have taken the shop formerly
occupied by S. H. Crenshaw, for the purpose of
manufacturing COTTON GINS, and would also
inform them that! have engaged Mr. Crenshaw,
who will superintend the manufacturing of them.—
My gins shall be made of the best materials, and I
can say with propriety they are the cheapest gins
sold in the Southern States, taking the workman
ship in consideration. I will warrant my gins to
make cotton equal to any made on any other gins
in the Southern States, giving the true staple of |
the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and
clear of moats. My gins will he delivered at the |
purchaser’s residence free of charge and warrant
ed to give ample satisfaction.
All orders addressed to the subscriber will meet
with prompt attention; repairing done in good style
and at short notice. All old gins of 10 inch saws I
will repair and put them on improved principles,
and also warrant them to make as good cotton as
; any ot the improved gins, and at a much less cost
than a new gin. J. D. HAMMACK.
Crawfordville, Ga., May 4.
I will say to the planters who may favor Mr.
Hamniack with their patronage I will exert all the
ability I have in superintending the shop; and every
gin sent from the shop shall be in complete order,
and warranted to be the cheapest gins ever offered
to the public; and from my long experience in the
business, I know the gins cannot be surpassed, al
though agents froni other shops have resorted to
the contemptible practice of slandering me and
; saying my gins have prostrated me, though it is not
true. In full confirmation 6f what I say, I offer a
few certificates from gentlemen who have used my
gins, and could furnish many more of this kind, if
required. S. R. CRENSHAW.
Dear Sir: I have used the Gin bought of you for
two yeafs, and I very cheerfully recommend it to
the Cotton planters ot Oglethorpe and other coun
ties of Georgia. It turns oft' sufficiently fast to
make good Cotton—it being 50 saws—will throw
out about 800 lbs. of lint a day. The quality of the
Cotton has, in Augusta, ranged half cent higher at
each of my sales than other sales of those days,
; and it has been pronounced by those considered
competent to judsre, as in no way inferior to the
) Cava Gin. Yours, very respectfully.
E. MERIWETHER.
April 24th, 1847.
Oglethorpe Co., April 22,1847
I have used for the last three years a machine
that was made by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawford
ville. I consider it one of the best Gin? I have
ever seen Two small mules will gin. with a great
deal 6f ease, three bales per day, and 1 do not
think there is a gin in Georgia that can excel it in
! making fine cotton. In fact, Mr. Crenshaw has
| sold a great many gins in this county and Elbert,
and I think that every man who has purchased is
| perfectly satisfied. All of his gins which have been
1 sold in this county , and they are not a few run light,
pick fast, and what is better than all, when the cot
ton is carried to market it sells for the very hisrhest
price C. S. MERIWETHER.
Crawfordville, May 4, 1847.
Mr. J. D. Hammack —l certify that I bought of
S. R. Crenshaw, last year, a forty-five saw anti
friction Cotton Gin, which performs Well and makes
as good cotton as the Carver Gin, in mv opinion.
P. G. RHOME.
This is to certify that I purchased one of Mr. S.
R. Crenshaw's improved anti-friction Cotton Gins
last year, and find it to be superior to any Gin I
j have ever used. 1 think it superior to the Carver
; Gins. It makes superior cotton, giving the true
i staple of the article, and gins 900 lbs. of clean cot
ton per day, and runs very light.
