AUGUSTA:
VvIsDXESDAY, OCTOBER 5> 1838.
“Be just, and fear nut."
THE ELECTION.
We are much gratified in placing before our
readers the following result of the elections, which
were held in this city, and at the different pre
cincts, on Monday last.
A portion of both political patties placed be
fore the people of this county, a ticket compo
sed of the friends of each parly, the avowed ob
ject of which was stated to be, the election of an
efficient Delegation, to represent Richrilond in
the next Legislature. This ticket, composed of
Gen. V. Walkbii, for Senator, and Messrs.
Rnonr.s, Jenkins, and Miller, for Reprcscnla
tutives, (the two former of whom are Union
men, and the two latter Slate Rights men) has
succeeded by very large majorities. An opposition
ticket was nominated by a few individuals of the
Union party, opposed to the above ticket, on
which was placed the names of two of the gen
tlemen who composed said ticket,' and also the
names of Messrs. Sen lev and Stallings, the
result of which may be easily ascertained by re
ference to the number of votes received by the
latter gentlemen. A most decided opposition
was manifested towards the ticket which succeed
ed, and also to those known to be in favor of it.
The day previous to the election, tickets were
circulated throughout the county, headed “U
--nion Ticket, opposeii to the TRAITOR
GLASCOCK,” merely because he took an inter
est in the success of the first mentioned ticket,
and was supported by the State Rights party for
Congress. 'File epithets of “ Dictator,'’ &c. was
applied to Gen. G. and other leading men of the
Union party, who used their influence in favor of
that ticket, but it would not do, their endeavors
to excite the prejudices of the people were una
vailing.
The success of the Stale Rights Congicssional
Ticket, in Richmond, though a surprise, must be
truly gratifying to the party. Before the election
took place, its success was not supposed possible.
The success of Gen. Glascock is to be attribu
ted to the support given him by the Slate Rights
party, for we have no hesitation in stating that
his name was stricken from the tickets of more
than half the Union men—indeed, as wo said
before, tickets were printed by one of the Union
presses of this city, calling him a " Traitor,
,qd omitting his name as a candidate on the
Uongressional ticket; besides which, they endea
vored to impress upon the minds of the country
people that ho had deserted his party, and had
“ sold them to their opponents.”—We knew his
conduct in the last Congress did not please a ma
jority of the Union men, and we think no furthci
proof of it can now be required. We,arc mucht
pleased to find that he received so decided a sup
port from the Slate Rights party, for his conduct
dias proved him worthy of it; and his own party
have shamefully deserted him, for doing what he
conceived to be his duty as a Southern man, and
the representative of Southern people!

GEN. COFFEE’S DEATH.
In this morning’s paper we publish an account
of the death of Gen. Coffee, one of the candi
dates for Congress, on the Union ticket, which
was received in a slip from the office of the
Georgia Journal, on Saturday morning, through
the hands of a gentleman of this city. It was
reprinted by us, and forwarded to several of the
adjoining counties on the day following. On
Monday morning, the Constitutionalist warned
the Union men, against being influenced by the
intelligence, and stated that no news of the kind
had been received at their office, though the
Federal Union was received, from Milledgeville,
on Sunday evening, two days after this slip
reached as. We received the Federal Union,
also, on Sunday evening; ( dated the 4t/i in
stant, and received here on the 2nd,) and, if
after being apprised of Gen. C’s death, which we
have every reason to believe he must have been,
the editor of that paper neglected to inform his
readers of the fact, he well deserves the reproof
which he receives from the Editor of the Senti
nel, in the following paragraph, which we copy
from that paper of yesterday ;
“The Constitutionalist of yesterday morning,
in remarking upon the reported death of Gen.
Coffee, attempts to cast reflections upon the
I Chronicle and Sentinel, for publishing extras on !
Saturday last, announcing that fact. Mr. Guieu
i admits that the package of Extras was received
from the Journal oflico by a respectable gentle
man, and it was on the authority of one of these
extras that we announced the fact. lie asserts
that the Federal Union received here on Sunday
contains not a word on the subject of Gen. Cof
fee’s death. ' Did Mr. Guieu look at the dale of
that paper 1 It is dated October 4th, although
. it must have been printed on Saturday ths Ist
inst. in order to have reached here on Sunday
night! ! Now, if the Editor of the Federal Uni
on would falsify the dale ofhis own paper, might
he not deem it policy to suppress the truth, even
3 if he knew ill The regular publication day of the
I Federal Union, we believe, is Tuesday ; and our
I opinion is that the Editor of that paper knew the
I fact of Gen. Coffee’s death, and yet published his
3 paper three days before its proper lime, saying not
S a word on the subject, for the purpose of leaving |
3 ihc impression that this report was not true, be
-5 cause it might affect the election. If we are mis-
I taken, we shall be sorry for it; but the impression
is so strong upon our blind, that wo cannot help
expressing it.”

THE NEW YORK MIRROR.
We copy the following very favorable notice of
this excellent work from the New York Evening
I Star of the 22d ult. Those who may wish to
j subscribe for the Mibbor, can do so by applying
3 at the Bookstore of Wm. J. Hobby, Esq. in this
* city, who is at present as acting Agent for the
i proprietor:
j “ The New York Mirror for the present week
3 —the thirteenth number of a new volume- —is
adorned with Inman’s portrait of the popular au
thor of “Fanny,” [Fitz Greene Halleck,]
’ from the burin of Parker. The resemblance is
strikingly correct, and the many admirers of Hal
le ck will thank the Editors for one of the best
1 heads ever engiavcd in this, or any other coun
-3 try. The portrait is accompanied by a graceful
and discriminating notice of the writings of the
, hard, from the pen of William C. Biiyant.
i Another number of N. P. Willis’s delightful
) “ LoiteTings of Travel,” also enriches the im
| pression befoie us. Thomas Haynes Bayley
has contributed two exquisite little poems, and
Charles E. Horn has arranged some very pret
, ty lines, written by George P. Morris, to a
r melody of Dr. Hugh McLean. There is a po
. cm by Mrs. Sioouhney, on the death of Zkbli-J
na Thorne, at Trenton Falls, and some “ City I
Lyrics,” which possess sufficient merit to be of
, Halleck’s production. Samuel L. Knapp has)
. a paper on the forecast of genius. William |
Dunlap has some reminiscenscs on painting and
the Drama. J. Price has an intensely interesting
passage from the French of Rolzac, and there is
a tale by Mis. Emerson, which should be rend
by every body. The Rev. Dr. Schuoeder has
■ contributed a column of short Sermons for Sun
■ day reading. Then follows a characteristic anec
dote of the late Charles Gilfert; a descrip
tion of Highland scenery by Biiantz Mayer;
Original Analysis ; Ada Byron and Lord King;
Beau Bmmmell; Skirlcy Park ; American and
English Travelling ; Jerusalem ; Slanders of the
Public Press; Opera Glasses; Changes in Fash
ion ; Mind your own Business; Subjects for
Engravings ; the Literary Nolices of the Week ;
the Drama, &c. &c., the whole forming a diversi
fied lileraiy banquet, highly honorable to the lit
erature and fine arts of the country.
Wc always take great pleasure in noticing the (
Mirror, because we think it one of the very best I
of our periodicals, and because we know it is eve- 1
ry way deserving of all the support it can possi- *
, lily receive. At five dollars a year it is decidedly ,
the cheapest work of the kind extant, when the i
elegant manner in which it is produced is taken ‘
into consideration. In the course of the year ,
there arc fifty pieces of popular music given I
which, while they occupy only one half o.f the *
last page, form, in the course of twelvemonths, a (
collection of valuable melodies that could not bo |
be purchased at the print shops for less than three
times the amount of the whole subscription. In
this peculiar feature ihe Mirror resembles no oth- j
er periodical either in England or America. Then
each A r olume contains four or five valuable quar
to steel engravings, generally painted and engra
ved, expressly for’il, which, we believe, is also an
advantage which no other woik possesses—besides I
four hundred and sixteen imperial pages of close- 1
ly printed letter press, mostly original, and gencr- !
ally from the best pens in the United States; and |
all for five dollars a year! Wc have said this
much as an act of justice towards the enterpri- 1
sing proprietors of the Mirror, and to show that
full value is rendered for the amount received, I
1 which is the true secrefwhy the the New York]
1 Mirror is one of the most interesting nnd flourish j
, ing of the American periodicals. Mr. Willis’s
• “Loiterings of Travel,” now in the course of pub- .
licilioa,we understand, will he continued through
out the present volume, which will soon be ren
dered still more interesting by a series of papers |
from abroad, by Theodore S. Fay, and some
. j rambling sketches by William Uox. We i
! should not omit to mention that the number he- :
.! sere us—plate, music and literary content*, ate !
i ' all original, and all given in good taste, and in ,
i' the best possible manner.”

LATEST DATE FROM LIVERPOOL, AIM U .ST
LATEST HATE FROM HAVRE, AUGUST 17
Havre Market, Aug. 17.
Cotton —During the nine days (including two
holydaya which have elapsed since our last report,)
I the transactions in this anicle have been exten
sive, the sales having amounted to 7481 halos, as
follows:—3B37 hales Louisiana, at 145 f to 157 f I
00c; 2110 do Mobile, at 12If to 170 f; 554 do
Upland, 132 f .50c ; to IB7f 50c; &c. &c. The
supplies received per contra have been 3345 hales,
viz: 3260 United Stales, and 85 .Guadalonpe.——
In a few instances some advance has been ohtnin
. cd on the finer qualities of United Slates short
staple; hut in general, the above transactions h »ve
taken place only at well supported prices.
Macon Market, Sept. 20.
Cotton. —A good demand still exists for the
article, but at rather lower rates than lust week.
The quantity arrived to market is daily increas
ing which meet with ready salt? from* wagons, at
10 a 16} cents. The quantity of which is some
what better than that received a week hack. The
weather for the past fortnight, will no doubt im
prove the quality much.—J/roaenpTr.
Charleston Market, Oct. 1.
Cotton . —We now close our annual statement
of the import and export of Cotton for the last
twelve months ending on yesterday. The re
ceipts have been 16,500 hales of Long Cottons
of every description, and 227,058 bales of Up
lands. The'Export has been 15878 hales of
Long Cottons, and
and the stock on shipboard and in stores on last
evening was 900 hales of. Long Cottons, and
3091 hales of Uplands. The sales have been of
the new crop 93 bales at 20; 39, 194; and 22
19 cents; of the old crop 15 bales at 19; 49,
17 ‘ 26, lf»4; 60, 16; 31, 154; 77, 14; 112,
| 14}; 34, 134; and 11, 13 cents. On reviewing
our remaining stock, we found in store, of Up
lands, 4852 hales of the old crop, and 463 hales
|ol the new. The weather has been favorable,
| hut from the Cholera raging within the city for
I the last month, and the low stale of the Rivers
within our State, there has been but a small quan
lily of the new crop received. The principal |
j part that has come into market is Georgia Cot- j
I bms hy the Rail Road. The season for picking j
has been very favorable, and our Planters no |
doubt have not lost the opportunity. There is a ,
good inquiry for new Uplands, but purchasers |
have not as yet freely come into market; prices i
they think range rather highland until we have
a good supply to operate upoty, priron must re
main nominal. Wo offer no.quotation at pres
ent, but refer our readers to the sales reported.
The crops in this State promise to be very favo
rable to the Agriculturists.
Flour. —The demand for the last week has
hociiTather limited. A lot of Howard-st. recei- I
ved during the week, was sold to arrive 104, and j
which was alluded to in our last report. Holders
are firm, and no sales made under our quotations.
Stock light.
Groceries. —There is hut little doing in Coffee,
Sugar, or Molasses. A small lot of the latter is
now going on board for Boston. The principal
transactions at present arc to the Grocers, as our •
country trade has not opened.— Mercury»
Philad cttua Market/ Sept. 27.
Coffee —The Market has been almost at u
stand, and prices slea y, until Friday, when, 1073
hags common to goou Rio were offered, and all
sold hy public sale at about £ cent per lb advance
on previous sales; 187 bags sold at 114, 720 at
114, and 23 at 124 c. cash to 90 days. By pri
vate contract a few hundred bags Rio at 11 4 to
124 ; 9 hhds 5 tierces, and 60 hags porlo Rico at
134, about 150 hags Havana terms, not reported.
Cotton —The demand has been moderate, the
week’s sales only amouting to 330 hale. In the
fore part of the week prices recoiled a trifle, hut
the late accounts from Europe hive induced hol
ders to become firmer in their demands, and pric
es arc now about the same as at the close of our
last report.— Bicknella * Reporter.
New-Youk Market, Sept. 27.
Cotton —Sales this day of 109 bales New Or
leans fair, at 17 cents, 3 months, 100 Mobiles,
17J, good, for cash; 300 North Carolina*, 16 to
17 cents.
Mobile Market, Sept. 23.
Cotton —Received this week, of the new crop;
300 bales; old 7, together, 307 bales. —Expoitcd
none. The stock in port and on shipboard not
cleared, 690 hales, 398 of which was new crop.
There is nothing whatever to report in our mar
ket, —not a hale sold this week. This is said to
he owing to the prices at which holders have fix
ed for what is on sale, and from which they do
not appear willing to recede; purchasers, consid
jer them as from 1 a 2 cents above its value. No
strictly prime, we believe, lias as yet came for
-1 waiyl of this years growth.—Accounts from the
| interior of the State are flattering, and all the an
ticipated damage appears to have been premature.
Our planters this year will reap a golden harvest.
—Mobile Shipping and Commercial List.
New Orleans Market, Sept. 2 A.
Cotton —Arrived since the 16th instant, 2810
hales of Louisiana and Mississippi Colton, of
which 2747 are of the new crop. Cleared in the
same time, 403 hales ; making an addition to
stock of 2413 hales, and leaving on hand, inclu
sive of all on ship hoard not cleared on the 22nd
instant, a stock of 7266 bales. The transactions
of the week comprise about 1200 hales, buyers
for the North having again been the exclusive
operators. For the last two or three days there
has not been muchLjloing, buyers evincing no
eagerness to purchase unless when the quality
of the Cotton comes fully up to good fair. This
neglect on their part, however, appears to have
no influence on the views of holders. In some
instances, parcels have realized a fraction moie
than the same description of Cotton brought last
1 week, hut the difference is vory trifling. Prices
have ranged from 184 n cents, embracing
qualities from middling fair to really good fair.
Moat of the new crop that has arrived lately, is
said to ho inferior in quality to that which came
in first, attributable entirely, wc presume, to the
wet weather, as the country for more than twen
ty days has been inundated by heavy, and almost I
incessant rains. Wo particularize the following,
sales, viz: 20 bales nt HU, 275 at 185,69 at 19
79 at 184, 17 at 19g, 9at I Os, 150 at 184, 288
at 13}, 25 at 194,50 at 19.54 at 18}, 18 at 18}

Sugar —The market, ffr both New Orleans
and Havana, remains in iff'- name, if not a more
inanimate, situation than previously, though nom
inally hold at the same rales, Should not a
belter demand spring up, than has lately been CX-
- porienccd, there will still he some of the present |
1 stock on hand when the new crop begins to make \
r its appearance in market. The high price the |
, article has borne all along originating in consc
i qucnce of the shortness of last season’s crop, has, *
i no doubt, greatly curtailed the amount consumed,
! nnd has also caused the introduction of so large a
. quantity of foreign Sugar*, that it has kept all
. kinds dull.— Levi/ 1 * Price Current,

the Ist of October, Mauia Dawson Atkinson,
youngest daughter of Dawson and Maria Atkin

terminated an unnatural war, and secured pacific
relations between the United States and the
mother country. Ho landed in Virginia during
the years 1783-4, when hut a short time could

S,] HE eagerness with which ROWAND’S
TONIC MIX PURE has been sought for
from the first moment that it was scut forth to the
general use of tha community, affords the most
unequivocal assurance of its surpassing excellence
and importance. It is now regarded by those
who have hail opportunities to decide upon its
merils, as an inestimable public blessing; and in
dispensable to the health, comfort and prosperity
of tire iiiliabilnnis of many portions of our coun
try. In proof ol which, the Proprietor can exhibit
communications from various newly sollled Ter
ritories and Colonies, signed by numbers of tire
citizens, entreating that they may be supplied be
times and in quantities adequate to their necessi
ties. Without au exception in any age or coun
try, no medicine has spead with such rapidity
and gained such distinguished reputation, within
the period of the few years that it has been used
in the tioatment and cure of Fever and Ague,
and general Debility,—one hundred thousand
•eases of Fever and Ague being annually cured by
its employment. Its value then being so univer
sally acknowledged, I think there can be but one
equally universal.feeling of contempt ami repre
hension towards those who, regardless of the suf
fering they occasion, endeavor to deprive the af
flicted of the most certain means of relief and
comfort. Such a course has been pursued by A.
Beebe and J. W. Sellick, of Erie, Pennsylvania,
who having been detected and exposed in au at
tempt to foist off'a counterfeit of Howard's Tonic
Mixture, have since endeavoured to deceive the
public by publishing a receit which they daringly
pronounce the same as the original genuine medi
cine. I have had repeated occasion to declare
that the composition of the medicine has never
been revealed to any individual whatever, and
such is Ihc delicate composition of the medicine
that it will over defy the attem; ts of analysis;
therefore the statement made by A. Beebe, viz;
that it bad been analysed by u chemist of New
York, and that its composition is such as given by
him is equally as (iilse, audacious,and impudent
as any other part of bis conduct towards the
Genuine Rinvaud’s Tonic Mixture.
