“THE COTTON CULTIVATOR.”
“ This is the name of a newly invented ma
chine, for cultivating cotton in the early part of
the season, and while the plant is small, a mode!
of which was shown to us yesterday by the agent
of the purchaser of the patent right for South Car
olina. It ploughs the cotton on both sides of the
row, and thins it out at the same time ! It will
do the labour of from four to six hands, and can
lie drawn by one horse and managed by one man
We cannot undertake to describe it, although it is
a very simple thing in its construction, but do not
hesitate to give it as our opinion, that it will an
swer the purpose for which it is intended, in level
lands, free from stumps and roots. It is highly
Worth the attention of Cotton Planters, and its
worth will no doubt be thoroughly tested and ap
preciated by the intelligent farmers of South Car
olina, to which State the Agent was going with
it.” —Sentinel of yesterday.
GEN. GLASCOCK.
The Constitutionalist of Monday, says: “Gen.
Glascock, it will be observed, has obtained an
’overwhelming vote, having been supported by both
parties; but we are assured his political .princi
ples are unchanged and unchangahle ; that he is
Still the devoted friend of Gen. Jackson, and the
Warm supporter of his administration, and will
vote for the Van Buren Electoral Ticket.”
“ .Assured his political principles are unchan
ged ?' —-since when ? — before you covertly warn
ed the Union men against him, and to vole a
gninst him, as untrue to his party and principles,
and guilty of tergiversation, (in your notice of
the withdrawal of Col. Howard,) or after ?
If the former, why, after assailing him for a
change of principles, do you now declare them
“ unchanged,” without admitting that you deeply
wronged him, and apologizing for that olfenco :
And if the latter, why, after assailing him for the
position he then occupied, do you now, triumph
antly, as it were, declare that position “ un
changed and unchangahle,” and invite that confi
dence in him, which you before endeavored to
destroy, and intimated that he was entirely un
worthy oft
How do you reconcile all this, Mr. Guir.v ?
Remember, that no osc has charged him with
changing his principles but yourself, and your
party friends—none else denounced him as a
11 traitor.” Why then this flourish over the vote
. given to him, as though others had made such
\ charges—they who have given him this “ over
j whelming vole,” while many of his party friends
I dropped him at the polls, and were urged to do so
by you 1
Is not this renewal of the question, about his
“ principles,” which none have urged but your
selves, a repetition of the insult, tending as it
docs, to induce a suspicion that it has been and
is still open against him, in a quarter whore it
has never been entertained ? Who, in that quar
ter, has said that ho is not “ the devoted friend
. of Gen, Jackson and his administration,” or that
, he -mil not “ vote for the V. n Duron Elec
■ toral Ticket 1” If, however, after so tho
roughly opposing the vile course of the traitor
Pinckney, he votes to sustain those who sup
ported it, and to elect to the Presidency a man
whose principles on that great and all-absorbing
■ question arc in direct conflict with his own, that
is a matter for himself to reconcile, not us. If
his principles on that question are unchanged
since we supported him, wo have every reason
still to be gratified in the couisc we pursued ; and
if they shall not always be so, the only disgrace,
or just cause of regret, will bo his, not ours.
THE WILLIAM GIBBONS.
The Charleston Mercury of Monday last, says ■
“ Great anxiety prevails in our city respecting
this Steam Boat, which left New York on Satur
day the Bth inst. and has not been heard of since.
Passengers who left New York Tuesday after
noon mention that she had not put back. The
mail of yesterday brings no intelligence concern
ing her. Many of our fellow citizens wore ex
pected in the Gibbons ; and painful apprehensions
are entertained lest she may have met with some
fatal casualty in the late stormy weather. The
Georgia, and the Water Witch, Pilot Boats, sup
plied with provisions, were sent out yesterday, in
search of her, and we hope we shall have good
news belore our next. We learn that the line
brigs Gen. Marion, Delano, and Cordelia,
SiiEßwouu, will be despatched to-day is quest of
the JVm. Gibbons, A request was also made to
the Collector, for the Revenue Cutter Dexter,
Oapt. Rudolph, now lying in our harbor, which
was promptly met, but on appplication to her
commander, it was found that she was unfit for
sea, heing'partially dismantled.”
CHARLESTON ELECTION.
Mr. Legaiie is undoubtedly elected to Con
gress in opposition to the vile traitor, Pickney.
In addition to the Returns mentioned in our last,
those of one only of the two Parishes then to be
hoard from have since been received,which, added
to the others, give Mr. Leoare a majority of 68
voles. In the Parish to be heard from, (St. James
Santee,) it is thought that the polls wore not
opened, and admitted on all hands, if they wore,
that the votes there would increase the above ma
jority, and in all probability to the entire amount
of them, which would bo about 20, and there
fore if unanimous the other way, could not alter
the final result.— lo triumphs I This is the most
gratifying result of all the elections, that either has
or could have happened—the most favorable to
Southern institutions. And may such ever be
the fate of all traitors.
Will the Charleston papers have the kindness
to inform us whether the defeated candidate owed
his majority in the city, mainly to Union men or
Nullificrs, Southerners or Northerners I
“ THE LANO-STEALERS.M
It will be seen by reference to the following ar
ticle from the New Orleans Bee, that the Com
missioners appointed to investigate the frauds of
of the Laml-stealors upon the Creek Indians, and
the causes of the Crock war, have entered upon
their duties. We cordially wish them success,
but fear, with the Bee, that they will not meet
such as is desirable. The fraud to lie inves
tigated is one of no common order, and will requi c
a daring and determined spirit to dovclopo it, and
those concerned in it, to the public, even if it he
discovered. It is believed, that the Land-stcalcrs,
and those concerned with them, directly and in
directly, are composed of many, very many, of
the most wealthy, talented, distinguished, and
powerful men of the country, and of both politi -
cal parlies; and that they are not confined to
this State and Alabama, hut extend to Washing
ton City, and the public Offices there; that the
profits of the company have been so immense, as
to enable them lo bribe down all opposition or
difficulty, in any and every quarter, however
high; that they have forestalled party opposi
tion, by including popular and influential men, of
both parties; and also that of the Press and the
Bench of Justice, by including Editors, Judges,
&c.; that they designed also to forestall that of
the Supremo Court, by cfl'ccting, through their
party influence, the election of two at least of the
three Judges, from-among the members of their
company; that lo lull the suspicions and preju
dices of the Nullificrs, one of these was to lie a
Nullifies and to bo recommended by the Union
members of the company, to the Union parly, on
the grounds of Judicial impartiality, and the pro
priety of securing the confidence of both parties
in the new Court and its decisions ; and that the
Nullifier who attended in Mifledgcville from Co
lumbus, as a candidate for Judge, while the sub
ject of the Court was under discussion in the.
Legislature, and who was talked of as the Judge
(and the only individual as such,) whom the
Union party Were willing to give to their oppo
nents, was the actual nominee of that compa
ny, and would have been elected through their
influence. That ho is a member of that com
pany, has since transpired beyond all doubt; and
that ite was the very last man of all others, whom
the Nullificrs Would have chosen to represent
them in that Court, is equally unquestionable.
Wo, and other Nullificrs, protested against his
election on our account, and gold the Union
men cither to let our party choose for itself, if it
were lo take its share of the responsibility, or lo
elect, as they had the power to do, all Union
i men. For our own part, wo felt that the election
-of such a man would ho a disgrace to our party ;
s and it will he recollected that we. strongly pro
) tested in our paper against the pretended liberali
ty of giving the Nulliflurs one of the J udgos, uu
j less they were permitted to choose and nominate
. him.
t It is also believed, that the conduct of the Gov
.l ernor toward Gen. Bailee, and his appointment
t of Gen. Sanfoiiii, was brought about by the in
- flucncc of this company of Land-stcalcrs —Gen.
1 Bailey having taken a inoie determined and
t zealous interest in opposing them and thwarting
• their measures, and in getting up the memorial
- to Congress, undei which these Commissioners
r were appointed, than any oilier man ; and his oc
- cupnney of such a station in the Creek country,
i as commander of the Georgia forces, would have
; afforded him a favorable opportunity of watching
t and detecting their manouvres; while Gen. San
s so itn had already been there as Creek agent, and
I had probably learned all or more in that station
II than ho could do in the military one; and was
1 therefore perhaps the only man from whom they
> had at least nothing more to fear in that com
mand.—We must not be understood as insinua
ting that either the Governor or the Union party
lias any thing to do with this company, or has in
, the slightest degree connived at or knowingly aid
ed its views and purposes; but it is easy to per
ceive that the influential Union men who arc
members of that company, might urge various
B party arguments, and bring a powerful party in
fluence to hear upon cither, without letting them
know the secret, selfish, and iniquitous motives
s that actuated them.—lt is also believed, that the
j members and secret agents qf this infamous
company wore continually around the Governor’
. Gen. Scott, and all other influential officers who
, wore engaged in the Creek war and might by
j chance discover any of their iniquities, to watch
0 their movements, pul them upon the wrong scent
, if they should endeavor to discover them, and
C not only blind them to the true causes of the
, war, and members of tho company, but indicate
others to them, and prejudice them against all
, men who might otherwise influence them against
r the company, and aid them in detecting its acts
r find individuals. May not similar arts ho prac
tised upon the Commissioners, appointed against
them ; and is it not probable that their influence
was exerted upon Gen. Jackson, in his appoint
. ment of the Commissioners, in the same way ns
. it is supposed lo have been exorcised upon the
Governor, and the Union party, in the appoint
ment of Gen. Sanford, and the nomination of
Judges of the Supreme Court I—By the bye,
1 who are these Commissioners, and why have not
i their names yet been made public ?—We should
, like to sec them: And how happened it that
, Gen. Glascock was (if we arc correctly informed
and impressed,) the only member of tho Georgia
Delegation in Congress who voted for the inves
tigation asked by tho memorial I We should
like to know on what grounds the others voted
. against it, so that we might be tho better prepar
i cd to judge whether any socrct influence was ex
i cried upon them.
! From the Mew Orleans Bee,
“We learn from the Pensacola Gazette, that the
! Commissioners appointed by the United States
to investigate the frauds committed upon the
Creeks by tlio “ land stealers,” and to enquire in
to the causes of tho late Indian hostilities, have
entered upon their duties. No doubt seems now
to bo entertained that the most nefarious and un
principled frauds over put in practice in the world,
have been employed to cheat the Indians out of
their lands. If the daring villiany of certain per
sons connected with tho matter, whose names arc
known, but who it would not yet be proper lo
name in the newspapers, could be Fully developed,
the rending world would be amazed, not so much
at the want of principle in these persons, as at
their hardihood and defiance of public opinion.—
It is much to be feared however, that the coin
mission appointed to look into this {natter will
accomplish little or nothing. *ll will be compell
ed to prosecute its enquiries in opposition to lire
influence and power of a combination of men
who have already shown that there is no crime
to which they will not resort, (or (he purpose of
covering over their vast wickedness and frauds.
They are strong enough to break through the
web of the law whenever it suits their interest to
do so. We fear there is no hope hut in the di
rect action of Oongioss on the subject, and,it is be
lieved that if the investigations of these commis
sioners, should fail to elicit the truth, (lie Presi
dent will make it one of the special subjects of
bis annual message to Congress. It were better
that the whole surplus revenue of the government
1 should be expended in the investigation, than
that so foul a slain as that which may now be
said to rest upon the whole nation should not be
wiped out by holding up the real perpetrators of
these frauds to merited punishment and scorn.”
FROM THE COXSnTi TIOV A I.IST.
“ 07)" The Chronicle and Sentinel are con
stantly on the watch for opportunities to attack
tlie Constitutionalist. Every circumstance, how
ever innocent it may be, is tortured into various
shapes, in order to present it under the worst as- '
peet. There is a rancor now and then expressed
in those two papers which cannot ho mistaken. (1)
We Jo not reciprocate such had feelings towards
our neighbors. For the evils they wish should
hefal us, we wish them prosperity in their avoca
tions, with the exception of the prosperity of the
party to which they arc attached. (2) Tho last
Chronicle declares that the “Traitor Glascock’s
Tickets” (3) were printed at ties office. How were j
the editors made acquainted with the fact? 7 'he '
editors of the Chronicle anil Sentinel knew (4)
these tickets were printed without the knowledge
and sanction of the editors of the Constitution
alist. The person who printed them communi
cated the circumstances to one of the editors of
the Chronicle. Why then did not the Chronicle
■ state all the circumstances 1 (5) No; this would
not have answered the hostile feelings of the. ed
itors. By merely stating that the tickets were
printed at this office, the inference would he
drawn that it was done by the direction of the
editors; and the editors of tlie Chronicle know ;
i full well that there frequently issue from the press |
of an office, printed papers which have never been
submitted lo tho approbation of the editors. The
• editors of the Constitutionalist never saw one
i of the tickets in question; and if permission
i had been asked lo print them, it should certainly
have been refused. We do not ask the favor of
tho Chronicle to publish this explanation. (0) It
1 sos very little consequence to us, tta the comrmt
i nity in which we all reside, know how to ap
i | prreiate tho motives by which its members are
. ' guided.
We must say in behalf of tlie person who
printed the ticket, that on Tuesday morning, (7)
■ the day after the election, and after the appear
iance of the Sentinel, he informed the editors of
, the Chronicle and Sentinel, of his having printed
the ticket without our knowledge, and requested
them not to notice tho circumstance; and this
■ chcumstanco came to our knowledge only after
t we had prepared an article, and given it lo the
compositor, in which .we exculpated this office
from issuing the ticket in question. But after we
■ were made acquainted with th circumstance, we
I had lo shape our denial in a dift'erciit manner. (8)
, The printer of the ticket expressed much regret
' at having done so, and at having rendered us lia
ble to the misrepresentations (9) and attacks of the
i editors of tho Chronicle and Sentinel, from whom
. any other but generous feelings and justice can bo
expected towards tho Constitutionalist. We have
’ done with this subject: we shall leave the field to
! our adversaries : they arc better skilled than wo
; arc in such a contest.”
(I) This is untrue. Our readers know well
I that we have seldom, very seldom, commented on
i the course of the Constitutionalist, though cer
i lainly not for want of abundant cause to do it
frequently. As to‘torturing’every or any circum
stance from its natural and proper shape, wo deny
. it, and defy the proof; and Mr. Giueu knows
, that we pursue a rule of publishing what wo com
, ment on, which gives our readers an opportunity
ofjudging for themselves, and would expose such
conduct on the very face of it. The ‘rancor’ spo.
, ken of we equally deny, and should like to know
, any paper that manifests more rancor than the
Constitutionalist, in its conduct toward the Nul
, lifters.
, (2.) We do not deal in professions, or might
, reply to this. It were very easy for us to say all
that Mr. Giiiku has done, and even more. If our
acts do not shew that whatever may bo the zeal
| with which wo advocate our principles and o
piuions, we have no personal enmity or ill-will
against any one, and are incapable of wilful in
justice, then there is little use in saying so, for the
public, very properly, have no respect for mere
professions.
(3.) We did not say the “Traitor Glascock’s
tickets,” but “ The ‘Traitor Glascock’ Tickets,”
as Mr. Guieo well knows—meaning tho tickets
so called, and not to style Gen. Glascock a traitor
ourselves, as Mr. G's alteration of our language
indicates.
(4) Wo did not know it—we were only told so.
(5) Because, sir, as he doubtless told you, that
person requested us not to do so.—We were told
(not confidentially,) the da* before the election,
by a person not connected rvifh the Constitution
, alist office, that they were printed there; but
bearing afterward that the editors of that paper
declared that they were not, wo merely stated on
the Wednesday after, in some remarks on the
election, that they “were printed by one of the
Union presses,” satisfied as we were, that neither
the Sentinel Office or our own, had printed them,
and that tho act was perfectly consistent with the
enmity manifested toward .Ccn. Glascock by a
portion of tho Union party at the lime of the
election, and by tho Constitutionalist itself, in its
notice of Col. Howard’s withdrawal, as formerly
shewn by us. That “one of the Union presses” had
printed them, vve fell confident, and believed it lo
be the Constitutionalist, but as flic editors of that
paper denied it, and we had no positive proof of the
fuel, and might possibly be mistaken, hut felt sure
it was one of them, wo merely so declared it.
On the day that We did so, the journeyman who
printed them asked us how wo came to know
they were so printed, and we gave him the rea
sons already Staled; He then voluntarily told us
that they were printed there, and lie printed them,
but without the knowledge of the editors, and
that ho had communicated the fuel in confidence,
to tho person who had first mentioned it lo us.
and who had violated that confidence in doing
ho; and he requested us not say any thing more
about it, or more than wo could properly avoid-
We promised him that wo would say no more on
tlie subject than wo might lie compelled lo say in
self-defence; and there the matter would have
ended, hut that tho Courier afteiwards insinua
ted that tlie Tickets were printed by one of the
Stale Rights presses, and tho Constitutionalist
also declared that it “ printed tickets with the
name of Gen. Glascock at the head of the Con
gressional candidates, and none others;” and that
“if tickets were printed al their office it was
done without their knowledge or sanction:”' —Self-
defence required that we should deny the fact in
sinuated by the Courier i but, mindful of our
promise to the Journeyman of the Constitution
alist, instead of fully vindicating ourselves, aswc
might have done, we merely denied the printing
of them by cither one of Ibe Stale Rights presses,
and again asserted that they were printed by “one
of the Union presses.” In reply to this, the Cou
rier very justly asked, “if the Chronicle knows,
where “the Tickets ” wore printed, why does it
not say—and, conscious that justice to it re
quired that we should say so, explicitly, ami that
not to do so would biing discredit on our own
veracity, we merely declared, of necessity, that
“ they were printed at the Constitutionalist Of
cc,” leaving the editors to make their own explan
ation of the matter,after hearing from their journey
| mail, as wc felt assured they would, vvlul hail
passed between him and us, and determining to
publish that explanation, even without comment,
if it should be just lo us, and manifest a proper
sense of our forbearance. Whether it is so, may
be seen by reference to the article, above.
(0) Nor do w c publish it as a “ favor,” but,
aswc publish all articles that wc comment on, or
that reply to us, from a sense of justice, self-re
spect, and impartiality, that our readers may ace
both sides, and be able to judge for themselves bc
i tween the two, and censure whichever they think
in tho wrong. Having never once dealt other
wise by the Constitutionalist,if wc have ever cither
“tortured” its “circumstances” or meanings, or
manifested any “rancor” toward it, tho bane and
antidote have always gone together, and tho
wrong must have recoiled against ourselves,
rather than injured it. Did it ever once deal thus
iUi'iwuwniaiMiiii a i' t
c[by us !—and if not, was it that its own “ tortu-!
( rings” and “ rancor” against us, might not bo
11 properly seen and judged of by ils readers 1
(7) .Velas, sir; it was on Wednesday mor
if ning, after our first declaration, of that morning,
d that they were printed by one of the Union pros
l* scs. This, that person will not deny ; and the \
s . j
reader will perceive, by reference to our remarks'
e under No. (5) that the misstatement is an im-
D porlant one.
8 (8) So, then, you knew, when you declared
) that you “ did print tickets, huT with the name j
it Gen. Glascock at the head of the Congressional (
* candidates; and none others,” and that “It such I
8 tickets were printed at your office, it was done !
a 1
e without your knowledge or sanction —that these
e “ Traitor Glascock” Tickets were printed at your
0 office !—and a pretty comment it is, truly,on your
insinuations against our motives and feelings!
U Sir, if yon fell wholly guiltless in this matter,
u why, instead of concealing it from the public,
under tho declaration that “If Such tickets were
( printed at our office, it was done without our
knowledge or sanction,” did you not candidly say
y “ such tickets were printed at this office, but it
g was done without our knowledge or sanction,”
and state the circumstances mentioned in your
y article above? This, voluntarily done, would
1 have honorably exculpated you, and saved you
, from that subsequent, reluctant, but necessary do
sigmition of your office by us, which has forced
it from you, while your own accidental exposure
of your cflncelamcnt of (lie fact, when known lo
you, justly subjects you to suspicion. Thus, sir,
j you shamefully assail us and our motives for no
il cessarily doing that in self-defence, which this act
r of concealment forced upon us. A pretty judge
lof motives, you arc, truly—a most immaculate,
just, and perfect moral Censor! You talk of
II “ torturing,’’ sir. Pray what was this: “If
_ such tickets were printed at this office,” &c. ?
And of "rancor,” too, after forcing us by this con*
coalmen! of tho truth, into a position where we
were compelled, either lo designate your office,
after the question of the Courier, or subject the
, veracity of our assertion to just suspicion; and
„ then, because we did not choose tho latter, assail
ua and our motives and feelings. You ask, i
“ Why did not tho Chronicle slate all the cir- I
cumstancus ?” after concealing those circumstan
ces yomself ; and chaigo us with hostility for not
t doing so, though you might have been satisfied, by
I out uniform custom, that we would assuredly pub
lish your reply 1 Sir, why did you not stale those
circumHlancosyoursolfj acknowledging as you do,
that they were known to you as much as to us.
Wo hostile to you? no, sir; hut wc will Dot,
j on dial account permit you, dr any man hreath
j mg', to unjustly assail our motives with impuni
, ty ? Do unto us, sir, as you would that wo
r should do unto you, and you will never meet 1
with an unkind or harsh word from us; and
»
. when you again raise a stone to cast at us, bo
i sure, ere you do so, that you arc without fault ? 1
> (9) This charge of “ misrepresentation” is not
i only wholly false, hut -wholly unfounded, and we
challenge you, sir, cither to prove that charge, or I
I stand convicted, in default, not only of “ misrop- !
, rcseiitatiuii,” “ rancor,” mid “ hostility,” but al- |
so of wilful falsity. ,
You admit that tlie Tickets were printed at i
. your office, but deny that it was done with your J
knowledge. After your admitted concealment of
i that fact when kifdwir to you, and violent assault I

Coitdris —Arrived since our last, 452 hales of
Upland. Cleared to the same time, 173 bales.
()u shipboard not cleared, 007 hales. Tho sales
have been 679 bales ofthe new crop, as follows;
200, 20, 257, 19.; ; 36, 19J ; 50, 19j ; 89, 10J ;
10, 19; 24, 1 ; and 26, IB.J cents. Uplands
ofthe old crop, 11,20; 44. 18;'2, 16; 52, 14};
15, 14 J; 11, 14, and 39, 13 | cents. Our mar
ket has assumed rather a firmer attitude from the
small quantity of the new crop coining in, and
there being a good inquiry for the Havre as well
as the home mamifiicturies. The principal en
quiry is for square bales, that arc prime, which
readily obtains our highest rates of reported sales.
To assume quotations generally for any descrip
tion of Cotton wc think premature.
Flour. —There has none been received since
our last, and it is now retailing at higher rales
than our last quotation, but whether solos to any
oxtc.it could be made at those rates, should wc
have a supply, is doubtful.
Groceries. —The low rates of tho rivers and
tlie general health of the City has retarded our
Country trade. Tho transactions are altogether
limited. Coffee wc have heard of the sale of
Cuba, fair, from 13 a 13J cents. Sugars, a few
bhds. prime Jamaica brought sll, and at auction
10 hhds. and 3 tierces inferior $8 j a 8;J. Molas

ate, ami prices remain without essential variations.
'The weeks sales scarcely icach 400 hales, Upland

nossee 15 cents per lb.— WckntWs Reporter.
Mon ilk Market, Or I. 8.
Cotton —Amount of new Cotton received up
to this time is about 800 bales, the quality of
which wc are pleased to say is better than that
which had came to hand this lime last Jear. Last
year the first few bales brought to market sold us
high as 19c: Ibis year they have been sold as
high as 22e. These prices however arc no ciiter
ion ofthe market,either as regards, the rates or
quality—vve mention a merely as matter of re
cord. Tho prospects of the crop coming in are
at this time fair. There is nothing certain yet us
to its probable amount. An early frost, which
from present appearances may occur, would make
a material difference in the extent. Different es
timates htivn been made on the probable increase,
in the event of no premature frosts of this years’
crop over that of last year, varying from 37,000 to
50,000 halos—At all events, vve may advise our
planters to embrace the earliest opportunities of
sending their Colton to mdrl'.Gti Present prices
offer a handsome rclurri for ilia labor and expense
for raising and preparing the raw material for the
trade. Wo,cannot at this mdrnedt give a table ol
classifications with corresponding prices, but as
yet there has been no qualities received below
fair, and we have bouid of no sales where the
rates have not been ill ot above 18c, Very hide
choice has conic lo hand. The prices at which
operations have been effected within the last few
days, have been 18 a 20e, ami a fair demand. —
Tlie receipts of Colton since (he Ist inst. have
been 514 hales, '/’lie stock remaining on hand on
the Ist insl. was 04 bales. There have been no
exports, so that the present stock is 60J bales.

ing an adition lo stock of 0902 hales, and leaving
on hand, inclusive of all on shipboard not cleared
on the 22 I inst. a stock of 15,004 .hales. From
our last, until about the middle of the week, the
market was quite inactive, buyers operating vr?\
sparingly, and the prii.as of good mnml i had
receded fully one cent; on 00011 cotton don .
owing to their being so rare, the decline, Imw ” 1

considerably improved and a fair luisinc s ha

L vcrpool accounts to the 21th August, <*l a fa
vorable complexion, were received hero on Thurs
day, hut it i- thought tlie only riled produced by

earlier than umal. The total sales of the week,
amount lo upwards of 4000 hales.

I In this city, on Friday morning last, Mr. Sirr

On Saturday morning, Mr. Jarvis Haliatui.'
At Hath, Richmond County, Georgia, of Con
' sumption, on the morning of the 12th inst., Mrs,
Anoki.a D wiiiiit, wifa of the Rev. Theodore M.
, Dwight, aged 29 years. Her bereaved husband
„ and child have in her death sustained a loss
~ which this world can never repair. Uut faith
, points the bleeding hearts of her weeping friends,
In that Eternal Host on high—the rich inheritance
I of the Mossed, and whispers “peace, bo still.”
Intolhnt rest and upon the full fruition of that
inheritance, none who krifew her pious life, or
C witnessed her lovely death, can for a moment
, doubt that she has joyfully entered. In her long
! protracted sulfcrings, whielmbe boro with uncom
plaining resignation, and in her peaceful departure,
were exhibited in an eminent degree, the sioeetiiett
rather than lire dazzling splendour of Christian
Triumph. Death having, through the power of
sactifying grace, lost his sting, brought no rorrf
to her redeemed spirit.
“Her end was full of peace,'
Debiting her uniform piety serene;
4 ’Twas rather the deep humble calm of faith;
Than her high triumph : resembling moru
The unnoticed setting of a clear day’s sun,
Than his admired departure in a blaze
Os glory bursting from a cloudy course.”
Though Iter many dear friends whom she left
for a little season in this “ vale of tears,” weep'
under the stroke of the chastening rod, and III*
though the church to which she belonged mourns
i over the wider breach in her little company, yet
■ wo weep not—neither mourn for her. The len
dercst affection cannot for a moment wish her back
again in this wilderness of sin. Site has gone
a little before us to her eternal homo to enjoy
forever, without a fail,between, the full glories of
the lamb:
“Happy Spirit! thoii hast tied
Where no grief cap entrance find,
Dulled to rest the aching head,
Soothed the anguished of the mind;
A.II is tranquil and sererie,'
('aim and undisturbed repose.
There no clo'tid can intervene.
There no angry tempest blows,
Every tear is wiped away,
Sighs no more shall heave the breast,
Night is lost in endless day,
Sorrow in eternal rest!”
