Trial of Lieut- Col Fremont- The Court Martial for the trial of Lieut. Col. Fremont met at Washington on Tuesday last, and after organizing, adjourned Until next day. The National Intelligencer contains fuU reports of each day’s proceedings, but we arc compelled to substitute for them the follow ing concise statement of the correspondent of the Baltimore Sun: The charges against Lieut. Col. Fremont grow entirely out of the conflicting jurisdic tion between Commodore Stockton and Gen eral Kearny. Lieut. Col. Fremont was placed in such a position that he must necessarily ac knowledge the authority either of one or the other commander, and, if obeying one, incur the charge of insubordination from the other; he declined a decision of the question, and left it to the two commanders to settle their differences without his aid. For refusing obedience to the orders of Gen eral Kearny on an occasion which occurred at Los Angelos, on the 14th of January, 1817, Lieut. Col. Fremont was charged by General Kearny with insubordination. Lt. Col. Fre mont offers to prove, in his defence, that it was not incumbent upon him to decide the question of authority between the two com manders; and he further offers to prove that Gen. Kearny’s motives in this prosecution arc malicious, as shown by General Kearny’s con duct towards him for G months and 21 days, and in a march of 8,000 miles in California. Lieut. Col. Fremont, having waived all ob jection to the publieati n of the testimony, as it is taken from day to day, reporters are per mitted to take notes of the trial. Magnetic Telegraph. We stated a few days since, (says the Now Orleans Picayune,) that the line from Mobile to this city, would be completed in a few days. It appears, however, that our statement is cor rect only so far as it relates to the completion ■of the posts and the heavy masts at tire Itigo lets, but some weeks may elapse before the line will be completed. The wires arc put up from Mobile westward to the Pascagoula river. The posts are mostly erected through the whole length of the line, frova hence to Peters burg, with the branches to Charleston and Savannah —in ail some thirteen hundred miles —and the wires are being put up through the Carolinas, towards Charleston. The registers and batteries arc put up in Charleston, Colum bia, Camden, Fayetteville and Raleigh, and i the operators are in readiness at those places. If an additional supply of the iron cord is re ceived here from New York in season, the line may be put in operation from here to Mo bile soon after the first of December. When it is remembered that all this has been done since June last, and during such a summer as that just past, we arc not disposed to show any impatience, though it Is so desirable to see this great work consummated. The New Orleans Delta, says—“ Col. Jeffer son Davis, we regret to find, is still indisposed. Hisjwound still keeps him a cripple,and several attacks of fevar during the summer have kept him feeble. lie will shortly proceed to Wash ington, however, to attend his senatorial du ties. The travel, is in hoped, will improve his health.” Lieutenant Lonjpstrcct. The following account of the gallantry of thft young Georgian, we find in the Charles ton Mercury, extracted from a letter from an officer of the 2nd? Dragoons, to a gentleman in Charleston: “The South Carolina Regiment behaved with distinguished gallantry atChapultepec. In the former they suffered terribly, losing onc third of their number, and very severely also in the latter, so that now, out of the nine hun dred men, who composed the Regiment when it left Charleston, it can muster but about eighty or ninety. I should say,though,that sick ness at Puebla had reduced them more than half before we left that city. S. Sumter was wounded at Churubusco, but is rapidly regain ing his health. I take great pleasure in rela ting an account of an exploit of our friend Longstrcct, who highly distinguished himself nt the tote du j)ont at Churubusco. This work was very strong, and its guns were served by the deserters from our army, who fought with the energy of despair, whilst a hail storm of musket balls poured upon our columns from all parts of the parapet, from the fortified church near by, and from the banks of the ca nal. This terrific fire drove back a regiment in confusion upon the Bth Infantry, (Long street’s,) and it also began to waver, when L. seized the regimental colors, and accompanied by another officer, (Captain Bomford) rushed forward, calling upon the brave men to follow their standard. The men cheered by this courageous act, rushed with a shout upon the Ute du pout. Longstreet, still bearing the colors, ran in advance of all to the very ditch of the work; it was full of water, but he plunged in, crossed it, and diming the embankment, planted his standard on the fort, which his bold act had caused all to fly from, save the deserters, who fearing, if they ran, they would be shot by the Mexicans, stood their ground to the last, and all of them (about eighty) •Wore made prisoners, L. was badly wounded in approaching the city on the 13th, but ho is recovering rapidly. Hill was in the storming party at Chapultepoc, but came off unhurt.— Thomas, Brown, Judd, and Austine arc safe and well. I was completely worn down be fore we entered the city. For the last month, in fact, ever since we left Puebla, it would not bo an exaggeration to say, that we have been constantly in the saddle.” Special Notices. uDr. J. A.

Jayne- —Dear Sir .—-Our Mr. Jones has been in a very bail state of health for more than a year ; he has had the benefit of the best medical advice our country affords, and also visited your city during last summer, but found no relief. On the 15th of April last, we purchased half dozen bottles of your TONIC VERMIFUGE, and half a dozen bottles of SANATIVE PILLS. Through carelessness in packing the articles in a drygoods | box, one half the Vermifuge was broken. Mr. Jones commenced with the Pills, and after taking a few doses, felt a decided improvement. The three bottles of Vermifuge, which came safe to hand, brought from him, he thinks, not less than one thousand worms, and perhaps many more. He is now in belter health than he has been in for years, and we hope a few more bottles of your Ver mifuge and Pills, will clfect a permanent cure. All our physicians have entirely mistaken his ease, Prof. Samuel Jackson, of yonr city, at the head. Mr. Jones is most anxious to get more of your Pills and Vermifuge as soon as possible.

Mr. Seth W, Fowle, Boston ; Dear Sir: —I perceive by all the newspapers, that you arc the General Agent of that very use ful and highly popular Medicine culled Wistar’s Balsam ol Wild Cherry. Allow me to inform you, sir, that I have used that medicine in my r family with decided success. Last fall my wife was quite sick ; had a very bad cough. 1 consulted a physi cian who visited her and prescribed some medi cine, which did not remove her cough. At last he ordered Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry. 1 immediately procured a bottle of your agent in this place, Mr. Daniel W. Defy ; she took it, and it eared her cough entirely. During the winter I had a fever myself, which left me very weak and feeble ; I had a severe cough, which troubled me some time. I had recourse to your Balsam again, and found it highly beneficial; 1 was obliged, how ever, to take two bottles before 1 was entirely well. All who have bad colds, severe coughs, or diseased lungs, I would advise to try DR. WISTAR’S BAL SAM OF WILD CHERRY at once.

Nov- 10- REMARKS.—Our planters have been favored with the most propitious weather for gathering their crops, and those vs bo were wishing for a late fall have it. as we have not, np to this time, had sufficient frost to stop the growth of the plant. The yield, however, will not be as good as was expected under these circumstances, the long spell of dry weather having been detrimental to the maturing of the weed, and we have heard much com plaint that the late bolls, from whU h much was expect ed, are drying up on the stalks without filling out, for the want of the necessary supply of sap. P.y a reference to our tables it will be seen, that although there has been an increase receipt at tlio Gulf ports, there has been a ma terial falling off at the Atlantic ports, particularly at Charleston and Savannah.

I 6,349 1,589 Total .237,044 193,063 COTTON.—This has been the dullest week wc have ever had to record in this market at this season of the year. No one seems disposed to buy, and at present prices there are hut few sellers. The total sales of the week sum up only 462 bales, of which 121 were sold on the 3d : 12 at 7J, 44 at 7J, G7 at 7£, and 21 at 7f, On the 4th, 130 bales : 49 at 7», 12 at 7j}, 38 at 7.*, 8 at 7|, and 4 at 7|. On the sth, 135 bales: 11 at 7J, Bat 7s, 36 at 7jj 59 at 7.V, and 21 at 7*. On the 6th, 30 bales: 3at7, Cat 7J, 16 at 7g,4 at 71, and 14 at 7|. On the Bth, 23 bales : 6at 61, 6at 7£, 7at 71, and 4at 7|, Yesterday only 13 bales were reported to us, 12 at 7j, and 1 at 7j, The advices per French steamer came to hand per Telegraph on Sunday evening, but it was only a day or two later i from the Liverpool market, and as the British steamer \yas daily looked for, the few purchasers 111 .market with- j drew, or were offering such prices as holders would not accept. The telegraphic advices per British steamer came to band on Monday evening; they were very unsat sfacto ry and obviously incorrect in quoting the higher grades ofTTplands, so that both buyers and sellers yesterday withdrew from the market, and the only transactions from warehouses were the 13 bales noticed above. In the present state of the market, it is impossible to give anything like correct quotations, so we omit them alto gether, with the remark that 7 cents was the highest price we heard offered yesterday for fair, in square bales. The receipts have fallen off’ during the past week and this we must look for until prices take a turn for the better. Suwe the almve was in type we received a slip from our correspondent the Charleston Courier office, in which we find the following letter from Liverpool: “LIVERPOOL, Oct. 18.—The intensity of the money pressure and panic has farther increased since the de parture of the last steamer, and farther commercial fail ures have added to the gloom and difficulty. The stop page of the “Royal Bank of Liverpool,” to-day, has cre ated an extraordinary sensation, and for the moment, paralized the local business of the port. The ultimate solvency of this institution is beyond all question, but the failure must create great temporary embarrassment at this time of pressure. The quantity of Cotton press ing on the market has continued greatly to exceed tfe demand, and at the close of the past week prices had far ther sunk about Id per lb., but chiefly in the lower quali ties. The quotations then were for fair Up’and and Mo bile sjd and fair Orleans 6d; middlings a 5R and ordina ry 4.t; but these rates were not obtainable in quantity, and no doubt lower prices were submitted to for cash in some instances. “ The sales for the week ended 15th inst., amounted to 91,700 bales, of which 3,990 were on speculation, and 1900 for export; on Saturday, the 16lh inst., the business was about 2,000 bales, while to-day only about 1200 have been sold, and those |d per lit. below the above quota tions. Great gloom pervades the manufacturing dis tricts, and each week adds to the number of mills short time, or that are closed altogether. “ The Corn markets arc of course influenced unfa vorably by the extraordinary stringency in money mat ters. Fresh sweet Flour is quoted 2is 6d to 26s 6d, the latter being the highest rate for the best Western Canal, and Indian Corn lias declined about 3s per quarter, the top quotation lieing 32s for very prime, while the general business is at from 27 to 30s per quarter for fair merchant able parcels. Sour flour 19s to 225, and Indian Corn Meal 14s per hbl. Occasional forced sales are made for cash below these quotations. BROWN, SHIPLEY & CO.” GROCERIES Towards the close of the week there was a little more demand for Groceries by wholesale, and a fair business was transacted by wholesale dealers. In the retail way, the business has been light. There is at present an abundant supply of all descriptions of Groceries—in fact we do not know that we ever saw the stocks of our markets more full /«• better assorted, and every arrival continues to add to it. DRY GOODS.—The business this week has been confined principally to the retail trade. We hope before long to inform our readers of the establishment of one or two large jobbing houses in this city. The subject, we understand, is under serious consideration, and if carried into effect w ill be by men who not only have the means, but Hie judgment to enable them to compete w ith Mer chants in that line, nut only in Charleston, but in New York. With two or three such houses, our Merchants would be able to stop much trade that now necessarily centers at other points. In the Grocery line, Augusta has no successful competition, and we cannot see why the same cannot be made to bear in the Dry Goods line. HARDWARE, &,c.—ln the Hardware line, Augusta affurds a good market. We have several large houses engaged in this business, who always keep on hand large and well selected assortments, of their own importations. CORN.—Supply of this article still light. There has been a little more enquiry this week, but nearly all brought to market is in wagons and on the cob, w hich sells at 45 cents |»er bushel. Wc contiue to quote 45 a 50, the latter price for that put up in bags. BAGGING.—There continues to be a good demand for this article, but the sales are confined to supplying country orders which are generally filled at prices rang ing from 18 to 19 cents. Bale Rope is still scarce, and re tailing from stores at 0\ a 10 cents. FLOUR.—The demand is still confined to city wants. Supply on hand good, and sales making in small lots at prices ranging from s4.j to ss| per bid—the latter price difficult to obtain unless for something very superior. SALT.—Some additions have been made to the stock on hand, but as the supply is still light, and in few’ hands, we have no change to notice in prices. Wc have heard of the sale this week of about 1,500 sacks, deliv erable at the wharf and at the South Carolina Rail Road depot, at prices ranging from $1,60 to $1,62 per sack. Loose Salt still continues to be retailed from store at 45 a 50 cents per bushel, and sack at $1,75. BACON.—We have no large sales to report this week, nor have we any change to notice in prices. Our quo tations will give a fair index of the market. With SUGAR, MOLASSES and COFFEE, the mar ket is well supplied. Sales this week of about 50C bags Cofffee, in lots, at prices ranging from 84 to 85 cents per jH*imd. EXCHANGE.—We have no change to notice this week In the rates. But little Northern Exchange offering. The Banks continue to check on New York at J percent premium for Sight checks. FREIGHTS—The river is still low, but as wc have several light draft boats now on the river, they find no difficulty in reaching the wharf with their low boats. Little or no down freight offering, and we have no change to notice in the rates, either by River or Railroad. SAVANNAH IMPORTS, NOV. 6, Per Br. ship A ram in ta, from Liverpool—llo tons Salt.
