June 13 6m 215 — Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry It is not often that we find amongst the Medical Faculty sufficient candor to accord any merit i whatever to “Patent Medicines” as it conflicts with their interest so to do—but below we give an exception; OPINION OF A REGULAR PHYSICIAN. Exeter, Me., Sept. 30, 1845. This certifies that I have recommended the use of Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry for diseases of the lungs, for two years past, and many bottles, to my knowledge have been used by my patients, all with beneficial results. In two cases where it was thought confirmed consumption had taken place, the Wild Cherry effected a cure. E. BOYDEN, Physician at Exeter Corner. None genuine unless signed I, BUTTS on the wrapper. For sale in Augusta, wholesale and retail, by HA VILAND, RISLEY A CO .and also by THOM AS BARRETT & CO., and Dealers in Medicines I generally in Augusta. Ahg 24 t 3— Sand’s Sarsaparilla. Loss of Appetite, Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Heart burn, Gastritis or Inflammation of the Stomach, all proceed from the same cause, being an unhealthy secretion of gastric juice and bile. The salivan glands no longer send forth a healthy flow, and the Liver issues acridbile. Then follow* acidity of the stomach, eructation Os Nvind, distress of eating, op- i pression of the precordia, headache and nausea, 1 tremulCffs sensations, and a Variety of other pecu liar feeling? known Only to the Sufferer. For these and kindred diseases a new '-vVfcetiy ha* dawned upon the world, haring for it'cbjcet the relief of suf fering humanity. SANDS’ SARSAPARILLA, an entirely vegetable composition, is in its opera tion peculiar, entering into the circulation, thus coming in contact with the germ or cause of dis- | ease, and displacing unhealthy secretions by ex tending its influence to every part of the body, and causing a general reaction, when health succeeds debility and disease. For further particulars and conclusive evidence of its superior value and efficacy, see pamphlets Which may be obtained of agents, gratis. Prepared and sold, wholesale and retail, A. B. A b.

CHARLESTON, Aug. 25. —Cotton and Rire.~— i 1 here has been no inquiry for either article since <wr re port of .he 21st. and we have consequently no transactions to report. MOBILE, Aug. 21.— Cotton —The receipts of the week reach only 146 bales, and the exports 4.747, as follows; to Liverpool 2727, New York 910, Boston 430, Providence 627, and Philadelphia 53 leaving the stock on hand last evening 32,060 bales against 6,509 same period last season. In our last review we left the market quiet, but firm with a large business doing for so late a period in the season. We have again to report a fair amount ot sales with a uniformly steady market. 1 lie quantity on sale moderate, but amply full for all demand. On Saturday 800 bales were sold, Monday 300, Tuesday 400,'Wednesday 4,00, Thurs day 12 a 1300, and on Friday 4 a 500—summing up ( /ti all lor the week 35 a 3700 bales. The purchases 1 haye been made pretty equally for the French. 1 English and northern markets. We make no change in our quotations, remarking, however, the continuance ot a very firm market. \ bale of the new crop of cotton reached this city on Thursday, the 19th, by the steamer Creole from Montgomery, consigned to Mr. James Walsh. ! It was evident from its appearance that it had been hurriedly prepared for market, and was badlv pack- | ed and ginned, weighing oniy 396 pounds. It class- i ed as good middling to middling fair, and sold yes terday for 13 cents—a fancy price. The first bale was received last year on the 18tb, and sold for 10 cents. LIVERPOOI. CLASSIFICATION. Good and fine nominal. Good fair nominal.

Advices pour in upon us from all parts ol the State of so conflicting and contradictory a nature as to render it a matter of total impossibility to arrive at a correct or satis factory conclusion. In some places the plant is re presented as fine and flourishing, in others injured passed recovery, by the weather and the dreaded scourges of planters, the boll and army worm. A few weeks more will tell the tale. ' Should the worm continue to extend its ravages, as it did last ; year, it would be useless to speculate on the con sequences.
