THE HIVE It.
AftCf a week of threatening, we were, on Sun
day evening last, visited with a fine shower of
rain, accompanied with* considerable lightning,
which has not only had a beneficial effect in our
atmosphere, but has laid the dust lit our streets,
and caused the river to rise about two feet. At
present, it is a low boating river, but as there is still
a little prospect of more rain, should we be so
favored, steam boats will have a good river to
roach the city. — Constitutionalist of yesterday,
a rtriAV in the state house.
Milledorville, Nov. 0, 1835.
An affray occurred in the State House this
morning, in the passage nearly opposite the
Central Bank, between War. N. Brsuor and
Sfencer Riley. Various reports arc current
respecting it, from which we gather, as most pro
bable, that Riley made the first assault with a
light bamboo cane, and was shot by Bishop with
n pistol—the ball striking him on the chin, glan
cing downward, and passing.out near the throat,
without doing any material injury. It is said
that Z. W. Hargrove, the candidate for Judge,
seeing Riley likely to get the best of it, took part
with Bishop, and that before they were parted a
number were striking Riley with sticks.
THE report.
We publish today, a portion of the very able
and interesting Report of the Committee appoint
ed at a public meeting ol the citizens of Charles
ton, on the subject of the Southern and Western
Rail Road, and earnestly recommend it to the
serious attention of the people of this State, who,
if we may be allowed to judge from their inactivi
ty on the subject of this most important project
seem to feel no interest whatever in it. The Re
port, we understand, is from the pen of Gen. R.
Y. Hayne, Chairman of the Committee. We
shall endeavor to publish the remainder of the
Report, with the resolutions adopted at the meet
ing, and the documents appended, in our next.
The City Council of Charleston have placed
the sum of $5,000 at the disposal of the Commit
tee, for the purpose of defraying the expenses ol
sending off’Engineers, to bo employed in explo
ration, &c. —and we learn that no doubt is enter
tained in Charleston, that a very large appropria
tion will be made at the ensuing session of the
South Carolina Legislature, probably to the a
mount of $2,000,000. —We should be gratified tc
see this public spirited example emulated by tin
people of our own city and Slate.
THE LADIES COMPANION,
The October No. of this beautiful & elegant pe
nodical is received, and is, as usual, rich in excel
lent and costly embellishments, and Interesting
and well written literary matter. The contents
as will be seen by the tabic in our advertising
columns, are highly varied, and include some ter
or twelve valuable original productions, while till
others, also, exhibit taste and judgment irt tin
selection. The embellishments consist of ar
exquisitely beautiful steel-plate engraving, hi
Durand, of a “View on the Delaware,” abou
twenty miles from Easton, Pa. accompanied in
an interesting literary discription—a plate o
Embroidery—two pages of Music—and aver;
appropriate rich and beautiful engraved title pag
to the third Volume, of which llris is the last No
and is accompanied by an Index also. Consider
ing the great number of its embellishments, am
their exceeding costliness and beauty, it is sup
prising that this work can be afforded at so lot
a price as three dollars per annum, as indeed i
surely could not, but for the very large number c
jls subscribers,
THE KNICKERBOCKER,
Or J\i'ew York .Monthly .Magazine.
The October No. of this excellent and popular
periodical fully sustains the elevated character
of the work, and js one of the largest wo hate
seen—containing upward of 100 pages. The
contents (a table of which may be seen in our
> advertising columns) are most of them highly
interesting, and admirably written—and from
, some of the most popular writers in this country
. and Europe. Indeed, wo believe there is no
■ Monthly Magazine in onreountry, that has sue
’ ccedcd in acquiring the aid of so many able and
t distinguished pens; and wo earnestly hope it ■
t may be rewarded by as continual and liberal an
| increase of patronage as it richly deserves.—We
should not forget to remark, that it is always well
r printed, with excellent type, and handsomely
covered and put up with such care, as to be
P uniformly received in the best order—a couside
, ration of no liitle interest and value to suhscri
-1 hers, and an example worthy of closer imitation
' by most others.

FOR THE AUGUSTA CHRONICLE.
Mr. Editor .- —Will you please to direct tho
attention of your rielghhor’s correspondent, Uou
i Short, to the tho account published in the Union
f papers, of Gov. Lumpkin’s farewell dinner I It
deserves immortality from his pen. An assem
blage, which, “for talent, numbers and respectabi
lity, has never been surpassed”— think-, of that,
Master Short! “Never surpassed for numbers” !
Lord George Gordon’s mob, of some 80,000, was
a fool to il. Never surpassed for talent! ! Aliy.
AVood, of Mclntosh, presided!—and,
four Judges of ihc Superior Court * were mem
bers of tho committee, who invited His Excellen
cy to (he frolic. Was such an “assemblage” evor
• before congregated, on this mundane spfiore ?
But, look at tho toasts—more particularly that
of a matt) who, whatever lie his patty, is a mon
of decided talents, and high character—Wm. W.
Gordon, of Savannah:
“ John Forsyth —The firm champion of South]}
ern rights—the true representative of Southern
feeling. His advocacy of Martin Van llurcn, for
the Presidency, satisfies us that all is right.”
Georgians! it is a native of your soil who
speaks. You arc to bo “satisfied” with the qua
lifications of a Presidential candidate, only because
John Forsyth advocates him! ! Understand your
duty, hereafter, and vote as you are commanded.
DICK LONG.
* N. B.—Not a thousand years ago, State
Rights Judges were abused, most vociferously, for
taking part in politics. I suppose Union Judges
are to he judged by another standard.
We arc requested to stale lb t tho Steam Pack

St. Augustine, this trip, being unable to go to Ha

are in possession, not being of a nature calculated
to give 'more stability to our market, or to equal
ize the views ot buyers and sellers, business
i through the Week has dragged on rathor heavily ;
though, owing to the small stock on sale, as cot
ton has been arriving very slowly, and to tho cir

complete tho cargoes of several vessels partly

tho extent of about 4590 bales, and in some in

attention has been called to tho fact, and ilis one
ot considerable importance, that tho cotton re
ceived this season is superior in quality to what
it has been for several years past, the staplo being
remarkably Ibftg and line. VVr regret, however,
tho necessity of being compelled lo state, that
Ihc accounts that are daily received from all the
cotton growing districts in which wo are more
immediately interested, arc of such a character as
to leave very little room to doubt but that tho
quantity grown (his season will fall short of the
crop of tho last, in consequence of tho frosts that
fell about tho first of tho month, and which were
so severe ns to destroy bolls already formed. The
quotations we have adopted, uro probably us near

Liverpool Market, Oct. 3.
The market is gelling daily worse, mid the
1 eagerness to sell increases with tho decline, which
is 4d per Hi. since last Friday—l am convinced,
horn sales I have seen made to doy, whatever the
Brokers may say. Uplands uro now 7d to 10jd.

Oct. 2.—Evening—So groat has been the anx
iety to sell to-day, with many of tho holders, that
ft has produced quite u panic in the market. Fair
Uplands are down to 8 to B.Jd.
Liverpool, Oct. B.—Our Colts# market last
week was in a still worse state than it hud been
any previous week since it broke ground down
wards, in short vve had n pause, particularly on
Friday last, Several of the chief holders, as wo
i have described in former circulars, felt themselves
i called upon, for the sake of the jiroperty in their
possession, to practice forbearance, and, though
they wore not able to prevent the market from
falling, they, by the course they pursued, at nil
i events checked tho evil. Had two or three of
those who endeavored lo nurse tho market into a
more healthful slate joined tho anxious sellers
and pressed their Cotton forward, much as our
prices are reduced, they must now have been
considerably lower—and, for tho sake of selling
a very moderate quantity by forcing, (for aftel all
they could have sold but little) they would have ]
, reduced tho value of the remainder of the stock.
They had to choose in the midst of difficulties,
1 and decided on that evil which appeared tho
i least. One thins is hut 100 clearly proved by the
t turn which our market look, namely that the
prices given for Cotton in America Wore much
too high from first to last, tho result of which is
- fearful. The sales last week were 10,910 hales,
, I including 6,110 Upland, 7} a llj; 6350 Or
r loons, 7 a lit}, 10, 13/; 2120 Tennessee and
Mobile, 7j a 11:(, of which 1100 American were
1 taken for Export.
Tho import of all sorts of cotton into the
Kingdom since the first January amounts to
913.000 hales, against 84,700 received up lo tha
same time last year and of American separately
we have received 679,003 against 080,000 hales.
The Stuck in the Forts a* estimated on tho Ist
Inst, amount to about 320,000, against 360,000
bales, and of American separately, »c appeared
to have 283,000 against 198,000, the estimated
Stock on the Ut October, 1839,
On Saturday last, though some very low sales
were made on that day, the feeling seemed to un
dergo sonic eliangofor tho better, and which has
more clearly developed itself within the last three
days. The general opinion appears to bo, that
we have at length touched the lowest point, and
sales in consequence have, been made at J to j
advance on the business of last week, and in
several instances even more has been obtained on
some of the farced business transacted.
The sales of cotton for tho last 4 days about
15.000 hales, of wliieh about 12 to 1500 arc for
export, and a few hundred hales on speculation.
Yesterday the quantity of cotton offered was 100
large.

have been 1416 hales Louisiana, and 1026 Ba

' TO THE EM HiaC
IN of the recent death of Mr.
Fiir.jrKHieiv A. Cowles, of the linn of P.
A. & F. A. COWLES, it becomes necessary,
that tho business of the above lirm should bo
immediately closed. Tho subscriber, Mr. Philip
A. Cowles, (surviving partner of the lato firm,)
would therefore respectfully solicit tho attention
of that portion of lire business community, who’
are desirous of catering into the Mercantile busi
ness, in any part of this State, to tho Establish
ment where ho now resides, and where the busi
ness of the late firm has boon transacted since its
first establishment, and of which ho holds in his
possession a lease. Tho following are the prin
cipal and Land Lots comprised in tho
lease, viz:—One largo and commodious House,
which for tire last six years has been occupied as
a Hotel; it is a well known stand, and has al
ways been liberally patronized. A largo Storo
stands adjoining, sufficiently spacious to contain
a # 12,000 slock of goods—a smaller building
with a good tiro place and chimney, formerly oc
cupied as a sleeping room—one large House in
rear of the dwelling House, with two apartments,
one in which the cooking for tho family is done,
and tire other tan bo used as a Storo House.
These buildings stand on a square containing two
acres. Contained in tho same lease, is a largo
Earn, situated a short distance from Hie House;
on a 1 square of laud, mid is sufficiently largo
to accommodate 20 Horses. Tho above lease,
will remain in full force until tho Ist. day of
August next, at which time the property will bo
sold. In the lease, the subscriber reserved to
himself the privilege of purchasing tho premises
at the highest price ollercd by others. In con
sideration of which, the subscriber is to pay tho
sum of one bundled and fifty dollars per year.
This stand possesses many truly desirable advan
tages over most Southern Up-Country Stan do,
in its facilities for obtaining Condo, and in mak
ing immediate shipments of Colton to Savannah
and Charleston, a quality so essentially necessary
to the success of dealers In Colton, an article,
Ithe price of Which is continually changing, that
no business man can fail, justly It) appreciate it;
Tho subscriber having business at the North,
I early in April next, which must be attended to,
, offers the above business stands, with a transfer
, of the lease of the premises with all the privileges
therein contained, upon the same terms specified
in tho cohveyancc to him, loiji liter with a part,
or all of a Nine I iionsaini Dollar stock cT CRSoiJB,
which were purchased with great care, of the
Manufacturers and at the New York Auction
Rooms, with particular reference to tho Southern
market.
To any person or persons, wishing to obtain
a goad stand for tho Southern brininess, in all
its branches, he would only say, call and look.
