It will bo seen by reference to the Election Re turns from 53 counties—giving the average vote in each county for the two Electoral Tickets— that Col. Dawson has, so far, a majority of 3011 over Gen. Stanford, and the White Ticket a ma jority of 2097 over the Van Buren Ticket.— A letter from a highly intelligent member of the Legislature, dated “ Milledgeville, 12th Nov.” says: ” I believe it is now acknowledged on all hands, that the White Ticket and Dawson will be elected.” In addition to the returns in the table, it is re ported that the White Ticket has a majority, in Henry county, of 200—and in Newton, at the precincts, 50—total 250. And that the Van Huron Ticket has a majority, in Cuss, of 75 —Cobb, 70 DeKalb, 63—and Twiggs B—total 216.

TEMPERANCE SOCIETY. “A Temperate Man” is right. Our columns arc always open to the members of the Temper ance Society; and why should they attack others, for not doing that which they neglect to do them selves I We, at least, are not indifferent to the Temperance cause ; and believe that we are as zealous and consistent friends of it as any, even in the Society ; but wo decidedly differ from the Sociely, in much of its policy and mode of sup porting it. This difference has been openly ex pressed, (by leave) in a general meeting of the the Society, at Athens, and freely discussed there; and though its members failed to shake our hon est opinions, we have refrained from urging them n our paper, because we dispaired of inducing a change of that policy and mode till lime had sat isfied their advocates of their error, as wc are sat isfied it will ultimately do; and we could not con sent to make them instruments of mere dissension in the cause, without the hope of effecting any change. Since, however, the subject lias Bins been brought before us,and the lime has already perhaps become more propitious to a dispassionate discus sion, we shall probably lay them before our read ers as early as wc have leisure. At present wo have not room to say more. RAIL-ROAD CONVENTION. The Convention recommended by the Georgia Delegation in the late Knoxville Convention, as sembled at Macon on Monday, the 7th inst. and adjourned sine die on Wednesday evening, the 9th, after a session of three days. The counties represented in it were Bibb, Baldwin, Cass, Clark, Chatham, Cherokee; Crawford, Campbell, Cobb, DeKalb, Fayette, Floyd, Greene, Glynn, Gwinnett, Habersham, Hancock, Houston, Hen ry, Lumpkin, Mclntosh, Monroe, Morgan, Mus cogee, Newton, Pike, Pulaski, Putnam, Rich- , mond, Rabun, Sumter, Twiggs, Talbot, Tallin- , ferro, Upson, Washington, Wayne, and Walker —33. The Georgia Hail Hoad and Banking Company, and the Monroe Hail Bond Compa ny, were also represented—the former, by O. H- , Prince, Esq. and the latter, by Messrs. L. L. Griffin, A. H. Chappell, .(as. A. Nihbet, T. G. Holt, H. G. Lamar, and S. T. Bailf.t. The whole number of Delegates was 107. The Convention met in the Methodist Church. Judge Jas. M. Wayne, of Savannah, (under the ( nomination of Asuuiit Hull, Esq. of Clark,) was unanimously elected President, and Messrs. | C. A. Higgins, and O. Gregory, of Macon, j Secretaries. ( On motion of Judge Clatton, a committee was , appointed, of one from each county and Rail Road Company, to consider and report on all do cuments and resolutions presented to the meeting, and referred thereto ; consisting of Messrs. A. S. ■ Clayton of Clark, W. Poo of Bibb, J. A. Cutbbert i of Baldwin, Win. Hardin of Cass, S. B. Park- | man of Chatham, Samuel Thompson of Chero kee, Henry Crowell of Crawford, E. B. Thomp son of Campbell, J. B. Brooks of Cobb, R. Cone of DeKalb, J. D. Stcll of Fayette, J, H. Lump kin of Floyd, F. H. Cone of Greene, J. S. Wil- , son of Gwinnett, T. B. King of Glynn, J.

On the next day, on motion of F. H. Cone, 1 Esq. the committee of 40, was instructed to “cn- ‘ 1 i quire and report what system of Internal Improve- \ ment, by Rail Roads, Canals, or navigable rivers, < will best subserve the great interests of the State 1 On motion of Col. A. H. Chappell, the same committee was instructed to “ enquire and report , what means of legislation or otherwise, are best i calculated to bring about a harmonious and effi cient co-operation of the various sections and interests of the State, in constructing a ays- j I torn of Rail Roads, connecting the commercial ! cities of Georgia with the Tennessee river.” I And a committee was appointed to draft Rules government of the Convention. On Wednesday, Judge Clatton, from the committee of 40, made the Report which will bo seen in another column, and 500 copies were or dered to be printed. Mr. Sneed of Talbot, moved to strike out that part of the first Resolution which recommends the Legislature to construct the main trunk of the road at the expense of the Stale ; which was re jected. The Convention was addressed by Messrs. Clatton, Spalding, BranrEN, Glascock, and others, on the subject of the Report, and Internal 1 Improvement generally; and the Report was a -1 dopted with but two dissenting voices. ! Such is an abridgement of the proceedings in I the Macon papers: The Milledgeville correspon dent of the Constitutionalist, says: *• The Report was amended by adding another branch to the th roe recommended in the report, to pass through Milledgeville. With this amendment the report and resolutions were unanimously adopted by the Convention.” FOB THE AUGUSTA CHRONICLE. Messrs. Pemberton: —Some of the mem bers of the Richmond County Temperance So ciety, have expressed much regret that the con ductors of the Press are indifferent on the all important subject of the promotion of Temper ance ; but, I will do you, and others, the justice to say, that I believe your columns are always open to the friends of the cause, and that you will never refuse them an opportunity of appeal ing to this community, in behalf of virtue and morality. And lam afraid those who have so expressed themselves, are glad of such an excusc for their own indifference and want of energy in a cause in which they profess so much zeal. I therefore ask you to oblige me by insetting the following article, which I have written in a hasty manner, with the view of drawing attention to one or two subjects connected with the cause of temperance. The discussions which have taken place, at differelit Meetings of the Temperance Society, lately held in this city, have been of an exceed ingly interesting character, and I believe have done mucli good. They have also served to stimulate the friends of the cause, to eYcrt them selves in its favor. If the Society was to hold monthly Meetings, for the purpose of temperate ly discussing the different objects of its forma tion, ami invite the citizens generally to attend their meetings, I think it would lend greatly to increase the number of its members. But the members of the Society will hardly expect the public to feel an interest in its prosperity, when they are themselves dead to every thing like ex ertion in its behalf. I am afraid there are members of the Sociely, who express theirffclves with great warmth in its favor, but when they have an opportunity of real ly assisting the progress of temperance, let it pass them, merely because such opportunity of furthering its cause, may, possibly, in a very slight degree, affect their interest. Only keep the interest of the Sociely apart from theirs, or the possibility of prejudicing it, and their zeal is very great I Are there not members of the Temperance So ciely, who, after pledging themselves to “discour age the use of Ardent Spirits,” traffic in the ar ticle to a great extent, and make a living for themselves, by dealing out this source of death and desolation to others ? If not, I wish to be corrected. But if there are such members, I would ask, where is that consistency in their lives and conduct, which should ever characterize the acts, as well as the professions of all truly conscientious men 1 If the Society was really formed for the purpose of promoting the cause of temperance & morality why are not its members “ up and doing,” when they have so fine a field for action 1 Why do they not endeavor to influence the legislature of the State to pass a law prohibiting the granting of retail Licenses to the extent wc now have them, and which all will allow is a gross evil ! If they could succeed in raising the pric? of li censes, so that it would amount to a prohibition, or nearly so, they would confer a much greater benefit upon this community than they have yet done. Are there not, also, members of the Society who as holders of Real Estate to a great amount, never refuse to rent or lease their stores, even if they know the applicant will open a new Grog Shop ? I have asked the above questions for the pur pose of calling the attention of (he Society to subjects which ought to interest its members. The number of Grog Shops in Augusta,are in my opinion, a disgrace to the community ; and, they certainly could not exist, if they were not liber ally patronised. And is not the number almost daily increasing! Have wc not many more of those evils than when the Temperance Society was first formed; and if so, in what way has it effected a moral reformation—and where is the evidence of it! A TEMPERATE MAN. From the Charleston Courier, 14 th inst, PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. In Pennsylvania tlio contest seems to have been a close one: The Philadelphia Commercial Herald of the 9th inst. a Whig paper, gives re turns from all hut nine counties, and furnishes ; estimates for those yet to he heard from, and claims for Harrison a majority, in the whole State of 2279 votes. The Philadelphia Inquirer of the Same dale, also a Whig paper, gives re turns from all hut seven counties, and claims a Harrison majority, in the entire Slate, of hut j 3118 voles. Several of the estimates in the Her- j ahl arc shewn to be erroneous by actual returns | in the Inquirer —thus the former estimates the j Harrison majority in Perry at 100, when the i Inquirer shows it has actually given a Van Be- 1 rkn majority of 600, so tin? Van Buren ma- ; jorily is estimated by the former paper, at 1300 ; in Monroe, Pike and Wayne, while the actual | result in the Inquirin’ swells the Van Bun en majority to 2500. Wc have received no Van I Buiien paper from Philadelphia as late as the j above date. The Wing papers claim to have] succeeded in electing a majority of Delegates to the Slate Convention. In Connecticut both parties claim the victory— I New Haven and Hartford are said, by the Whig papers, to have given considerable majorities for ] HAr.nisoN.but the*N. Y. Evening Post, of the Bth inst. gives returns more favorable to Van ; Buren, and pronounces the State safe for that I gentleman. In Maryland there seems to bo no doubt of the I success of Harrison —Baltimore has given a | Van Buren majority of but 108. Ohio. An endorsement on the margin of the , Wheeling 7'imceof Saturday says, “six town-! ships in Guernsey county, Ohio, just heard from ; give Harrison 291 majority. The Whig ma [ jorily in Ohio will he greatly increased.” j The Virginia returns nrealso beginning to come in, and there appears to boa Whig gam in some of the counties but no opinion can bo hazarded [ of lire result from the materials bclore us.

The sales have bean 6544 bales of Upland of the new crop, as follows: 100 191; 372, 19; 1878, 184 ; 129, 18ft; 1828, 184; 649,181; 1016, 18}; 601, 18; 15, 17}; and 74, 17} cents.

The market has given way since our last report about } cent on Uplands; the choicest in market will not command over 19 cents: the demand is however good, and present prices may probably hold for some time.

Cotton —Received this week, 1980 hales, and exported 743 hales—leaving on hand and on shipboard not cleared, the stork of 4219 hales.— Throughout the week there has been an active enquiry, and transactions have been ns large as the quantity on sale would admit. At the close of last week, it was computed the slock on sale did not exceed 150 halos, which with 1930 received, makes 2130 hales brought into market; —of this there remains only about 300 hales unsold. The transactions have been parily fur foreign export, and a part for Eastern manufacturers. Prices have advanced on common qualities, we think, full } cent; and on other descriptions } cent.— This is attributed solely to the smallness of the stock, and competition amongst buyers. The op erations of the week amout to about 1830 hales, at prices ranging from 15 to 19 cents; ihese are the extremes, the pricipal sales being at 18} a 18ft. The quality will rale as middling fair, fair; good fair, and good, agreeable to the Liverpool classification.— Register. New Orleans Market, Nov. 5. Colton —Arrived since the 28th ullWio 18,423 bales. Cleared in the same lime 3765 bales; making an addition to stock, of 14,660 hales, and leaving on hand, inclusive of all on shipboard, not cleared on the 3d instant, a slock of 55,232 bales. We have to report a continuance of the same animated and extensive demand noticed in our last, and several preceding numbers. Oflhc whole amount received since the commencement of last month, there now remains hut a very tri fling portion of it unsold. In ihe transactions of the present week, a decided preference, as usual, has been given to the better qualities, though hol ders have succeeded in finding purchasers for all descriptions. Wc do not make any change in our quotations, but remark that the sales have generally been at lull prices. Liverpool accounts to the 16th September have been in town since the first of the week, extracts from which wo give. Tile total operations from our last to this lime, amount to about 16,000 hales. The price at which some of the larger sales were made, have not transpired; but wc subjoin a considerable list, viz ; of Louisiana and Mississippi, 154 bales at 19,82 at 17, 149 at 17}, 70 at 20, 592 at IBj, 363 at 18}, 344 at 18,J. 145 at 17}, 134 at 17}, 133 at 18}, 106 at 19}.

Liverpool Market, Get. 1. Cotton. —The good demand, at the dale of our ■ last circular, of 241 b ull„ was continued on Mon ; day, 261 h, and prices a shade higher were obtain : cd that day, but since the demand hart not been 1 so active as before, and more freely supplied ; and ! though a fair extent of business has been done, the improvement oflhc early part of the week is lost, prices being about as they were 24tli ult, with scarcely so linn a market as at that lime, and more difficulty in effecting sales at the cur j rent rates. The business for ihe week, ended last evening, amounted lo 22,300 hales, of which 7960 were Upland, at 8} a 12; 8160 Orleans at ! 7} a 13} ; 7100 Alabama and Mobile, at 7} a 12, 1 per lb. The import in the same lime was, 42,000 | imles, making the supply into Liverpool since the I first January 865,000, again-t 814,000 in the first nine months of last year. In the supply from the United Slates the increase is 20,000 bales. : The slock in that port is estimated at 256,000 hales, against 280,000 at the same period last year. | The stock of American is about 167,000 hales, i or 30,000 less Ilian at that time. Get. 8. — Cotton. —During the whole of the present week our market has been quiet, and the j sales amount to 11,200 hales, as f0110w5:—4255 ! Upland 8} a lift, lOd a Is, 3100 Orleans, 8} a | lift, 2550 Tennessee and Mobile 8 a 12, 20 12}, dec. Arc. of which speculators look 1200 Ameri- • can and 150 Surat, and export buyers took 100 American, 100 Surat and 160 Bengal. From 3 the little disposition shown on the part of the hol ; ders to force their slocks forward, there is no 1 change in price beyond the usual difference be tween a brisk and a dull market; indeed wo may I fairly call the market steady, r Fho stock of Cotton in tiro ports of the king dom, as estimated on tlio Ist instant, was, of all t kinds, 322,000 bales, against 319,000 at the same lime last year, and 260,000 on the Ist of October, 1834. And of American separately in the porta, 178,810 bales, against 222,500 on the Ist Oc tober 1835, and 198,470 Ist of October. 1834. 1 Tims it will be seen that the total slock shows ' a trifling increase, hut that American is about ' 44,000 hales less, and East India about 45,000 ’ bales more, than at the same period lastycar. The imports and outgoings this week will not materially alter the foregoing comparative esti , mate. What may lie Ihe difference of slock held in the interior, wc have no chance of uscertain [ ing, but there is little hazard in estimating it as larger than it was at this time last year. The i trade goes on unchecked in the manufacturing districts—4ooo hales East India, and 100 clean do. and 200 stained Sea Island, arc declared for public sale on Friday next. : i—llj__ DIBO, On (ho 4th instant, in Burke County, Ga,, George W.
