Cotton,Stock,
AND
Exchange. IVcokeT.
THE subscaiber has taken an office in
the building lately occupied by
Messrs Stewart & Hargraves, on the north
side of Broad-street, opposite ts the Post-
Office—where he offers bis services in
the above business, and hopes, by strict
personal attention, to obtain the patron
age of his friends and the public.
The great facilities afforded by brokers
in commercial operations generally, render
it remarkable that the merchants of Au
gusta and the planters have long sustain
ed the inconvenience of having none, and
particularly a Cotton Broker. In almost
every other cotton mart the business is
principally done by brokers; and hence
the ease, certainty and dispatch with
which it is executed. The same system
is perfectly practicable here. The mer
chant, by applying at the office of the sub
scriber, may hereafter save himself the
trouble of sampling his cotton and looking
up a purchaser t —the planter need be no
longer involved in doubt and diffioulty to
ascertain the true state of the market,
nor subject himself to the caprice of the
wary speculator—and the purchaser will
at all times know where to resort for cot
ton the market price.
Office Regulations relative to
Cotton.
Ist* In order to give time for sampling,
citizens offering cotton are requested to
eave the ware-house receipts by eight
o’clock, a. m.—ls left later than nine, sales

enclosed in a letter of instructions, and
dropped in the letter box the night pre
vious.
2d. Cotton will be sampled and 'receiv
ed from wagons till ten o’clock, a- m.—
if offered after that hour, sales cannot be
realized till next day.
3d. Warehouse expenses will invariably
be deducted from the account sales.
4th. Sales will commence at ten o’clock
and close at twelve, a, m.
sth. Persons choosing to limit and lim.
ding higher than the market, will have
their receipts returned them on paying
6£ cents fur a bag entry andsampling.
6th. Commissions on sales, 35 cents a
bale
Orders from the country, m
elosing the warehouse receipts, will be
promptly executed.
Stock Exchange and
Brokerage,
In their Various Branches,
Will be attended to at all limes during of
4ce hours, which will be from eight o’-
Vock a. m. till two o’clock a m. and from

late a most scandalous, false, and infamous
report of me, slating that I was shot at a
corn crib, in Franklin County, and that
I am now dead and incapable of Comply

all whom it may concern, that J can at
any time and plkCe present a living con
tradiction to that report, awl convince
the piopagHtor, by such argument, as
will make him confess that 1 am as much
or more alive than he is; and by a pro.
cess of reasoning directed immediutel’ to
the seat of understanding, | can heat ti In
to his head, that I am sound wind and limb,
and hope to find a sufficient store of food,
without any resort to my neighbors corn
cnbs, as always to enable me to give the
h.» to such reports personally, and to en
joy a life long 1 enough to fulfill any en
gagements in which I may be a parly.
