Act* XXIT. 15.—** 1 Im*" hope towards God,

The ancient Sudducee* explicitly denied the
resurrection of the dead, and the future fife,
wnether of angel or spirit ” The false leach
era against whom Paul warned Timothy, ex-
r lamed it away, saying, *'lt is past already.

it may be well here to remark, that this doc

wnom i shall see for myself, and mine eyes

be consumed within me.”
David, in the 49th Psalm, kings. “ God will
redeem my aoul from the power of the grave,
for he shall receive me.”
Isaiah, rapt by the Spirit of Inspiration, fore
tells the renewal of prosperous times for the
people of is love, and the Zion ol his God, iti
glowing language not capable of being under
stood, if there be no resurrection of the dead.
The prospects of Israel were almost "clean
gone forever"—perished as vegetation in the
continued fyosts oft winter; but they should see
• life from the dead.” "Thy dead men shall
ffvsi together with my dead body shall they
arise: awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust,
for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the
earth shall cast out the dead.”
Ezekiel’* vision iii the valley of bleached
bones, and its application, teach ns the same
thing: while Darnel expressly declares, that
“ Many of them :hat sleep in the duet of the
earth shall awake, some co everlasting life, and
some to shame and everlasting contempt ”
Hence wo Gad the more intelligent and pious
Jews, sweetly resting in the belief of a general
resurrection When Jesus was comforting
Martha at the death of Lazarus, and assuring
her of his resuscitation, though he had laid lour
days in the tomb, she said unto the Lord *• I
know he shall rise agaiu in the resurrection, at
the last dav,” as if it were a current sentiment,
even before "life and immortality were brought
to bght” by the full .ospel dispensation. Pau!
tells us, that by • lai th women received their
dead to life again ” Alluding, perhaps, to
these devoted si-ters, as also to the dhunamite
worthy . of Elisha’s acquaintance, and others.
But the New Testament pins this subject
into a broad blaze of light. When the Great
Teacher is showing the seekers of popular fa
vor how tn make a feast, he enforces his court
selsby assuring them, that thus * they should
be recompensed at the resurrection of the just ”
But bear him anawer the Sadducees when
they think to perplex him with questions con
cerning the resurrection of persons who had
been several times married : "Ye do err: not
knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
For in the resurrection, they neither marry,
nor are given in marriage ; but are as the an
gels of God. But as touching the resurrection
of Ute dead, have ye not read that which was
spoken unto you by God, saying lam the God
oi Abrah m and the God of Isaac, and the
God of Jacob ? God is not the God of the dead,
but of the lining.” And when the multitude
heard this, they were awtonished at his doe
trine Thia was regarded as a complete dis
comfiture of the Sadducees.
John records two declarations of Jeans,
which are as explicit and full as we could wish
" The hour is coining, in which all that are
in the grave shall hear his voice, aod shall come
forth: they that have done good unto the re
surrection of life, and they mat have done evil,
unto the resurrection of damnation.” ** lam
the resurrection and the life ; he that believeth
tn me. thongh he were deed, yet shall he live;
and he that liveth and believeth in me. shall
never die.”
Speaking of himself and of his own body, he
said, "Destroy this temple an 1 in three days I
will raise it up again.” He was as good a. his
word : for on he first day of the week succee
ding t. rncifirion, he tore the gateways of the
Crave i ay, and triumphed over dea h and
im that has the power of death, and proclaim
ed liberty to the captives of the charmd house
aod deliverance to those who all their life time
were subject to the bondage of fear. '* Now
is Christ risen from the dead, and become the
first fruits of them that slept." "Asin Adam
all die. so in Christ shall all be made alive ”
Upon the truth of this doctrine, the Apos
tles made all their statements rest. They
preached it in Jerusalem, at Corinth, in Anti
och and at Rome ; among peasatrs to the com
mon people, and before the wise qpd philoso
phic ul Athens it was the thenafi of Peter,
and us Paul; pf James and of John. Nay, all
the twelve, plibticly and privately, testified
wherever they went, that Jesus was alive a
gain though he had once been slaiu ; and that
they were personally ready, and compeienl to
attest the same. Hence, Paul a language in
my text. Henee, the Holy Spirit directs him,
in the sixth of Hebrews, to class this doctrine
with the gospel system. But more convincing
ly than all perhaps, al least more full and glow
in*. is the exceedingly beautiful passage known
as 1 Cor. 15. Argumentaton, revelation, and
eloquence are here combined in a most brilliant
oonvucing and persuasive manner, perfectly
unanswerable " Now is Christ risen from
the dead, aud become the first fruits of them
that slept.” " This corruptible must pm on
incorrupuon, and thio mortal must put on im
mortality. So when this corruptible shall have
pnt on incorritpiion, and this mortal shall have
put on immortality. then shall be brought to
pa-etbe saying that is written. Death is swallow
ed up in vic’ory. O death, where is <hy sting f
O grave, whare i* thy victory t The sling < f
death is sin: and the strength of sin is the
law. But thanks be to God, which giveth u»
the victory, through our Lord Jeans Christ ”
To oeny this doctrine, thru, is to deny the
plainest teachings of the Bible. To doubt it,
wtu eall in question the veracity of Christ, and
charge holy men of God. who wrote by inspira
tion, as designing hypocrites. It would make
the Bcriplures a tissue of falsehoods, and God
a liar.
That the subject has in it much of mystery—
much that ws cannot, here lolly undervtand, I
will not deny : but at the same time will in
eiet. that the doctrine of ageneral resurrection,
both of the good and tho evil is worthy of oil
actrftotioo In answer to all objections to this
piHKiou, let me ask you to consider.
Ist. The power that is pledged to arouse
the sleeping leuontaifibe grave, and vocalise
the sob-mu charnel house. He who will cause
the arch-angel s trump to sound so long and
loud.as io reverberate in all the caves of earth,
aod grot’oes of the uuta homable sea.—Ho who
will call around his judgment throne, all the
deacandau e of Adam each dressed anew lias
'* Allpotesr Iwthia heuMa and oa Mrtk.” Nay.
he is •• God ovvr all. blessed forever.** Jeho
vah Jesus, whom John calls " the true God
aud eternal Life.” basdeclared His purpose to
empty the tombs, and destroy both Death and
the Grave I He shall fulfilthe l.nguage ofllo
seat *1 will ransom them from the power of the
Grave! I willredeem them from death: O death.
I will be thy plagues ; O grave, I will be thy
destruction.
Tu those who offer any objections, then I
say in Paul's language belore Agrippa. "Why
should it be thought a thing incredible with
you. that God should raise the dead I” Wuh
God all things are possible.'*
But to meet a few objections more specifical
ly, let me present a brief argument
2d. From Us snefogiss of nntan, in confir
mation Os what has been already advanced
Jesus is recorded by John, to have said, “Er
eept a graiu of wheat fall to the ground and
die, itabideth alone; but if it die it bringeth
forth fruit.” "So also,” saith Paul, is the
resurrection of tbs dead, it is sown io cor
ruption,it is raised inincorruption. It is sown
in ai-honor, it is rawed in glory ; it is sown iu
v.caknoa.it is raised in power t it n sown a

There iaa naiurxl body, and there is a vpiiitiial

Each spring time, when we see the face of
narnie renewed with verdure, aud budding
beauties, let us recal the language of I atah.
and apply it to these decay ug frames—** Thy
dew u a- the oew el herbs ; and the earth shall

r cb Idreo of the resurrec ion.
Now concerning angels, let us observe, they
have bodies, hut such a. tn now .se impede
• their motions, or Tetter their aspirations. They
> canflv or walk: they can talk w.th men, or sing
in vocal strains. I’hey can •• minister to the
heirs of salvation ” in a thousand ways, and
when bidden, can attest both iheir real presence,
’ nnd the divinity of their mission, as in the
history of Abraham, of Lot. of Manoah, Zach
arias, of John, of the Shepherds at Bethlehem,
and of the agony in Gethsemane Palpably
and visibly will they have to do with the final
advent of Christ; with a rising world; a bur
ning sphere; and the general gathering for
the judgment of the great day. They have
agile forms, shining habiliments, and glistening
countenances. “So also is the resurrection
of the dead?'
Yea, more, the inspired Apostle assures the
Philippian*, that our Lord Jesus Christ “shall
chance our vile body, that it may be fashioned
like unto his own glorious body, according to the
workins whereby he is able even to subdue all
untn himself If this be so. then the Christ
ian's resurrection body shall be one that scorns
bars* and bolts, and walls—the confinement of
space, the wastes of nature, “ the wreck of
matterand the crush of worlds.”
In the language of Dr. Dick, “ Being sash
ioned like unte Christ's glorious body, its beauty
will be exquisite, its symmetry perfect, its as
pect bright and refulgent, and its motions vig
orous and nimble. Ila sensitive organs will
be refined and improved, and their sphere of
operations extended. New senses and facul
ties of perception, and new powers of mo
tion fitted to transport it with rapidity from one
portion of space to another, will in all proba
bility, be superadded to the powers with which
it is now invested.”
Doubtless, we see through a glass, darkly;
but presently we shall •* see as we are seen, and
know as we are known.” •* It doth not yet
appear what we shall be, but wc know that
when he shall appear, we shall be like him. for
we shall see him as he is.” “When Christ
I who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also
appear with him in glory.”
All this, it will be observed, is predicated of
those who sleep in Joans.” How the bodies
of the wicked shall differ, if at all, from those
of the righteous, we cannot tell; but “there
shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the
just and unjust. 19
This leads me to speak of the order of the
resurrection, and of its specific object The
Scriptures seem to warrant this statement.
Upon the fulfillment of prophetic declarations,
and of the Divine purposes concerning the
earth as the theatre of human probation, the
Son of Man shall come in the clouds with
power and great glory, with his holy angels;
and at the arch angel’s trumpet sound, the
living sons of men shall first be “ changed, in
a moment, in the twinkling of an eye;” and
then the graves shall give up their occupants
he sea shall restore their dead; and the whole
multitude shall then be brought before the
Omniscient Jesus, whom every eye shall see
and by whom every soul, reinvested with a
corporeal form, shall be jndged ; an- either
rewarded, or punished forever and ever. “ We
must ail appear before the judgement seat of
Christ; that every one may receive the things
done in his body, according to that he hath
done, whether it be good or bad ”
In view of ibis doctrine, let Christians look
calmly at death, and joyfully into the grave;
assured that, as Jesus lives, they shall live also.
Death aud the Tomb shall ere long, be de
stroyed. and everlasting life, in an incorrupti
ble and glorious body, shall be theirs.
But the Christless! —Ah me! The grave
will soon be theirs, and then— lVhat then!
“ There shall be a resurrection of the dead,
both of the just and unjust.” They that have
done good—believed in Jesus, treasured his
merits, loved his word, and ! ived to his glory,—
they shall come fonh in that day. to the resur
rection of file and bliss; and they that have
done evil—rejected the offers of mercy; nay.
neglected the great salvation, —ta the resur
rection of damnation.

Wesley and Whitfield.
Few characters could be more eompl< tely
the converse, and in the church's exigences,
more happily the siipplimont of one auo lier.
than were those of George Whitfield and John
Wesley; and had their views been identical,
and their labors all along coincident their large
services to th> gospel might have repealed Paul
and Barnabas. Whitfield was soul, and Wes
ley wu system. Whitfield was a aim mer
cloud which buret al morning or noon in frag
rant exhilaration over an ample tract, aud took
the rest of the day to gather again. Wesley was
the polished conduit in the midst of the gar
den, through which the living water glided in
pearly brightness and perennial music, the
same vivid stream from day to day As era
preaching paroxysm. Whitfield lav pantiug on
hie couch, spent breathless and deathlike;
after his morning sermon in the foundry, Wes
ley would mount his pony and trot and chat
and gather aimpies till he reached some country
hamlet, where be would bait bis charger, and
talk through a little sermon with the villa
gers, and remount his pony and trot away a
gain. Iu his erial poise. Whitfield's eagle eye
urank lusire from the source of light, and loved
to look down on men in assembled myriads ;
Wesley’s falcon glance did not sweep so far
but it searched more keenly and marked more
minutely where it pierced. A master of as
semblies. Whitfield was no match for an isola
ted man ; seldom coping with the multitude,
but strong in astute sagacity and personal
ascendancy, Wesley could conquer any num
her. one by one. All force and impetus,
Whitfield was like the powderblast io the quar
ry, and by one explosive sermon, would shake
a district, and detach materials for other men’s
long work; dell, neat and painstaking.
Wesley loved to split and trim eacn fragment
into uniform plinths and polished stones. Or,
taken otherwise, Whitfield was the bargeman
or the wagoner who brought the timber of the
house, and Wesley was the architect who set
it up. Whitfield had no patience for ecclesias
tical policy, no aptitude for pastoral details ;
wi h a beaver-like propensity for building,
Wesley was always constructing societies, and
with a king like craft of ruling, was most at
home when presiding over a class or a confe
rence. it was their infelicity that they did not
always work together; it was the happiness ol
the age and the furtherance of the gospel that
they lived alongside of one another. Ten
years older than hie pupil, Wesley was a year
or two later of attaining the joy and freedom of
gospel forgiveness. It was whilst listening to
Luther's Preface to the Romans, where he des
uribes the change which God*works in the heart
through faith in Christ, that he felt his own heart
strangely warmed; and finding that he trust ed
in Christ alone for salvation, "an assurance was
given him that Christ had taken away his sms
and saved him from the law of sin and deaih "
And though in his subsequent piety a subtle
analyst may detect a trace of that mysticism
which was his first religion, even as to his
second reign n. Moravianism, he was
indebted for some details of hi* eventual
church-order; no candid reader will deny that
"righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy
Ghost,” had now become the religion of the
Methodist; and for the half century of hia übi
quitous career, hia piety retained this trnly
evangelic type.
A cool observer, who met him towards the
close, records, "Bo fine an old man I never
saw. The happiness ofhls Hand beamed forth
in bis countenance. Every look showed how
fully he enjoyed ‘the gay remembrance of a
life well spent;’ and wherever he went, he
diffused a portion of bis own feheity. Easy
and affable tn his demeanor, he accommodated
himeeli to every sort of company, and showed
how happily the most finished courtesy may
be blended with the moat perfect piety. In
his conversation, we might be at a loss whether
to admire, most, his fine classical taste, his ex
tensive knowledge of men and things, or bis
overflowing goodness of heart. While the
grave and serious were charmed with his wis
dom, his sportive salliee of innocent mirth de
lighted even the young and thoughtless; and
both saw. in hia uninterrupted cheerfulness, the
excellency of true Religion.” To a degree
sea reel v paralleled, hia piety had supplanted
those strong instincts—the love of worldly dis
tinction. the love of money, and the love of
ease. The answer wnich he gave to his broth
er, when refusing to vindicate himself from a
newspaper calumny, ‘Brother, when Ide so
led tv God my ea»e. my time, my life, did I
exeep’ my reputation? was no casual sally, bit
’he system of his conduct. From the moment
that the Fellow of Lincoln went into the high
way and hedges aud commenced itinerant
preaching, he bade farewell to earthly fame.
And perhaps no Englianman, since the days
of Bernard Gilpin, have iven so much away.
When his income was thirty pounds a year, be
lived on twenty-eighi. and saved two for chari
ty. Next year be had sixty pounds, and still
living on twenty-eight, be had thirty two to
spend A fourth year raised his income to a
hundred and twenty pounds, and steadfast to
his plan, the poor got ninety two In the year
1775. the accountant-general sent him a copy
of the excise order for the return of plate:
"Rev. Sir, —As the commissioners cannot
doubt but you nave plate, for which you have
hitherto neglected to make an entry,”etc.; to
«hich he wrote this memorable an-wer:—
“Sir,—l have two silver tea-spoons at London,
aud two at Bristol This is all the plate which
I have at present, and I shall not buy any more
while so many around me want oread. I am.
air. your most bumble ser ant, John Wesley.”
And though it is calculated that he must have
given more than twenty thousand pounds away,
all his property when he died, consisted of hrs
clothes, bis books and a carriage. Perhaps
fike a bait burnished by motion, ms perpetual
activity helped to keep him thus brightly clear
from worldly pelf: and when we remember its
great pervading motive, there is something
sublime io Ibis good man's industry. Rising
ovary morning al fonr. travelling every year

diligence, which, launched on by a holy
and joyful impulse, has ever afterwards the

ship ho is not entitled to rank high.
Clear as h» occasional expositions are, there
are seldom eotnpreheaaton in his views, or
grendear in bw thoughts, or iaapireuon in his
* practical ap eah: and though his direct and ’
•itnple style is sometimes terse it is often mea
gre and very seldom racy. His voluminou
journals are little better than a turnpike logs,
miles, towns and sermon texts; whilst their
authoritative tone and self centering details
give the record aud air of arrogance and ego
tism which, we doubt not would disappear,
could we view the venerable writer lace to
face.
Assuredly his power was in his presence.
Such fascination resided in his saintly mien,
there was such intention in the twinkle of his
mild but brilliant eye, and such a dissolving in
fluence in his lively, benevolent and instructive
talk, that enemies often left him admirers and
devotees. And should any regard the Wesley
an system as the mere embodiment of Mr.
Wesley’s mind, it is a singular triumph of
worth and firmness. Never has a theological
idiosyncracy perpetuated itself in a church so
large and stable.
But though every pin and cord of the Meth
odist tabernacle bears traces of the fingers, con
cinate and active, which reared it, the foun
der’s most remarkable memorial is his living
monument. Wesley has not passed away;
for, if embalmed in the connection, he is
re-imbodied in the members. Never did a
i leader so stamp his impress on his followers.
The covenanters were not such fac-similies of
Knox; nor were the imperial guards such
I enthusiastic copies of their little corporal, as
are the modern Methodists, the perfect trans
migration of their venerated father. Exact,
orderly, aud active; dissident but not dissen
ters ; connections! but catholic; carrying
i warmth, and yet loving southerly exposures;
* obliging without effort, and liberal on system;
' serene, contented and hopeful, if we except the
master-spirits, whose type is usually their own ;
the most of pious methodists are cast from
Wesley’s neat and cheerful mould. That
, goodness must have been attractive as well as
very imitable, which has survived in a million
of living effigies

Savannah, (in Georgia) August 10th, 1776.
“A Dec aiation being received from the Honora
ble John Hancock, Eq , by which it appeared that
the Continental Congress, in the name, and by the
authority of their constituents, had declared that the
United Colonies of North America are, and of right
ought to be, Free and Independent States, and ab
solved from ail allegiance to the British Crown, his
Excellency the President, and the Honorable the
Council met in the Ceuncil Chamber, and read the
Declaration.
They then proceeded to the square before the As
sembly House and read it to a great concourse of
people, when the grenadier and light infantry com
panies fired a general volley. After this they pro
ceeded in the following procession to the Liberty
Pole. The grenadiers in front—the Provost M r
shall, on horse back, with his sword drawn—the
Secretary, with the Declaration —His Excellency the
President—the Honorable the Council and gentle
men attending—then the light infantry and the rest
of the militia of the town and district of Savannah.
At the Liberty Pole they were met by the Georgia
Bit (allion, who, after rea ing nf the Declaration,
discharged their field pieces, and fired in platoons.
Ujion this they proceeded to the battery, at the Trus
tees gardens, where the Declaration was read for the
, last time, and the cannon of the battery discharged.
His Excellency and Council, Col. Lachlan Mclntosh
and other gentlemen, with the militia, dined under
* the cedar trees, aod cheerfully drank to the United,

The quotalions are : Fair Orleans, 6jd.; Fair Mo

LIVERPOOL, March B.—Our Cotton market
continued very dull last week, the trade purchasing
to only a limited extent, and prices were jth per
lb. lower; lu the arrival of the steamer this week
there was a better marke', but toward the close the
hrmness has been loot, and prices are fully | to | per
th under those current on 22 J ult Sales far the
fortnight 63.560 bales, of which the trade have taken
39,690 bales, and exporters 5,770 bales. The import
is 43,734 bales. — Richardson, Brothers Co.
Havrb March Ith —Our Cotton market has re
-1 a peed into a very dud state. Yesterday the sahs
were only 600 bales* today they do not exceed 100
bales—the accounts from the United States by the
Europa, and those from Liverpool up to yesterday,
'taving produced a bad effect among u*. V Orleans
tree ordinaire, equal to middling fair, is worth 97f. a
97f. 5- Our present Block is 65,000 bales.
SAVANNAH, March 27—Cotton.—Arrivedainca

Islands. (1,595 from Augusta, 1,833 per Railrosd,
996 from Danen, and 11 per waguns.) The exports
for the same period have been 8.841 bales Upland,

bales Upland aod 115 do. Sea Inland; to Philadelphia
317 bales Upland; to Baltimore 48 do Upland, and
to Utarkesion 213 bales Upland, and 8 bales Sea
Island— teaving i n hsnd and on ship-board not clear
ed, a stock of 45,270 bales Upland and 3,091 do Sea
Island, against 38,753 bales Uplaud and 3,181 do Sea
Island at same time lest year.
The market has been inactive throughout the week,
the consequence of several causes. The advance
noticed in our last weekly report was entirely owing
to the reports about the chorines* of the crop and pur
chasers were unwill ng to go beyond the prices then
quoted. The factors being unwilling to sell at those
prices there bas been but a trifling business done.
On Wednesday the salee were 336 bales, Thursday
167; Friday 264; Saturday 180: Monday 106 and
yesterday 293 bales. The news by the Niagara
loan I iverpool was announced per telegraph Sa
turday evening, and the operations up to that time,
bad been at our last quotations. Since this news was
at hand there bas been an endeavor U» buy at lower
rates, but holders seem so little inclined to yield any
concession, that we renew our quotations of las
week, w»th the remark that they represent the ex
treme prices, an wnne sales have been made below
our figures—the market closes unsettled : ordinary,

CHARLESTON, March 29 -Cotton— When wo
closed our inquiri.is, preparatory to cur publication of
22d inst.,and indeed one or two days prior to this date,
the Cotton market was very much depressed. Prices
in the early pirt of the week had improved about }c.
from the lowest point, in consequence of the receipt of
favorable advices from the New York market, which
buyers subsequently refused to give, and it was to
sustain this improvement that holders struggled to the
close of the week, with only partial success. Pair
and Fully Fair at the time were quoted, it will be
recollected, nt ll| a 12c. The congest between the
buyer and seller continued at the opening of the cur
rent week, and as neither party would yield, business
was almost suspended during Friday and Saturday
1 last—the transaction!* on the former day having been
limited to about 400 bales, andon the latter to 150
bales—the accounts by tho Niagara, however, came
to the atd of purchasers, and sellers immediately
submitted to reduced limits.
The advices reached us on Sunday last, and du
ring Mon lay 1200 bales were sold at irregular p>i
ces, but the market sustained a decline of } to jc.
on previous asking prices. These reduced rates
paved the way to a more general demand on Tues
day, and the first sales were made at about the re
duction submitted to on the preceding day, but as
tho day advanced prices became more stringent—
sales 2100 bales A good deal of activity prevailed
on Wednesday, and upwards of 3300 bales changed
hands, and at the close of the market prices were in
favor of holders. Yesterday was a very quiet day.
the operations thus far having relieved the wants of
factors, there was very little Cotton offering ; besides
which, buyers had been disappointed in the receipt
of the foreign letters, which failed to come to hand,
and the sales were limited to some 4ttO bales.
The opinions of the trails were rather conflicting,
at the close of the week, as regards prices; the sub
joined quotations, however, embrace the views of a
majority of dealers, as giving a fair exponent of the
state of the market at the close of business. The
transactions of the week amount, in the aggregate,
to 7627 bales, nnd the receipts, in the same time,
comprise 3882 bales. The sales were as follows ;
87 bales at 10}; 45 at 10 3 16; 16 at 10} ; 57 at
10|; 78 al 104; 1442 at 1Of; 38 at 10 13 16; 639 at

11 9-16; 275 at 11 g; 19 at Ilf; 50 at Ilf; and 53
bales at 12 cents.
Ordinary to good ordinary 10} to 10}; middling to
good middling lOf all}; middling fair 11} all};
and fair and fully fair 11 j a 11} cents. The n arket
has been quiet during the week for Long Cottons the
sales having been limited to about 300 bales of ail
qualities. The sales show a slight reduction in favor
of bayers.
Corn. —We are still without any arrivals from
North Carolina ; our quotations, however, give a fair
index of the market. About 1000 bushels Maryland,
received since our last, sold at 56 cts. cosh. There
have been no transactions in country Com, and pre
sent prices are nominal. We quote 54 a 60c.
Teas.— The transactions since our last have been
limited to the sale of a cargo of near 3000 bushels,
received the previous week, at 80c.
Hay.— Aoout 100 bales Eastern of com men quality
brought 80c., 200 bales North River received yester
day have not been sold.
Flour.— The Flour market continues in a very
languid and depr seed state. The transactions have
been confined almost solely to Baltimore at prices
ranging horn sto 85} per bbl. The only sale of any
consequence was a lot of 300 bbls, which were sold
at ss} per barrel.
Salt. — There is none afloat. We quote nominally
70 a 75c. per sack. There is a heavy supply on the
market.
Bacon.— The market continues to be very much
neglected, the transactions h iving been confined to
small lots for immediate consumption. Our quotations
will give a fair value for the article : Hams, 5 a lie.;
Shoulders. 3} a 5; Sides, 5} a 6f.
Lard.— Nothing has been done in Lard.
Bagging and Rope.— *l hese articles continue to
be very much neglected.
Sugars.— The market continues to be very much
neglected. The trade are amply supplied and hence
the stagnation. The supply is large, and price 4 for
Muscovados and Louisiana, which constitute the
stock, are on the decline. The transactions of the
week, so far as we have been able to learn, have
I been limited to 50 hhds. of die latter, of good quality,
at 4}c. We quote prime from sto s|c ; and a very
chioce article mishl bring 6c. We quote Muscova
dos from 4{ too|, and a strictly choice lot would pro
bably reach a po>nt above our outside figure.
p Coffee. — There is no demand for any description
of Coffee, and prices are very much depressed, and
altogether nominal for the present. Some 9 bbls.
r and 12 bags Cuba sold at 12c.
Molasses. — This article has also been very much
} neglected. The trade is fully supplied for the pre
, sent, and two or three cargoes Cube, received re
cently, have gone info store. We quote this des
t cription 16j a 17c., and nominal; and quotations for
New-Orle ns are also nominal, as there have been
‘ no sales this week. Two cargoes Cuba, deliverable
in Savannah, have been sold to arrive at 18fc.
Domestic Liquors— Some SCO bbls. N. Orleans
’ Whiskey, prt to arrive, have been sold at 25 cents;
, and 50 bbls Northern Whiskey al 30 cts.
Provisions. — There was a site of 100 bbls. No. 1
‘ Mess Beefat s9f per bbl.
r Exchanges. — Bills on England and France nomi-
nal. Checks on New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore
’ and Boston, par.
Freights. — Ths Freight market continues very
I dull. We quote for Liverpool |d. for square and f d
I for round bags and Sea Island. A vessel is loading
I for Havre at &e. for square bags cotton, and 33 for
( Rice. The coastwise rates are the same as those cur
-5 rent at the -.lose of the preceding week, viz :To New
, York 25c. per 100 lbs. for cotton, and 75c. per bbl.
for Rice; and to Boston, 37|c. for the former, and
. «u per tierce for Rice.

* added victims to its conquest. Nu walk of life is
1 sacred from its blighting influence. No age is ex-

whoso good deeds prepared him fur the enjoyments

its fangs upon his vitals, and tearing him from a

- on days well spent.
Is there no help for the afflicted 1 No preventive

POPULAR MEDICINES.
CO If SU MPTION CURED DAILY
By Dr. flatting’* Compound
SYRUP OF NAPHTHA
THE MEDICAL FACULTY, as well as
the public, are struck with wonder at the nu
merous cures made daily by this extraordinary medi
cine, and it is now acknowledged by many of our most
eminent physicians to be a certain and speedy cur«?
for tubercular consumption in its worst stages. It
lias been recommended by that eminent physician,
Dr. Mok. and is constantly used in the Marino Hos
pital at Savannah, ba., by Dr. Arnold, the senior
physician of the hospital. The London 1 ancet,
London Medical Journal, Braithwaite’s Retrospect,
and all other of tho London Medical Journals, have
spoken in praise many times of the surprising effects
of Dr. Hastings’ Preparation. It Ims been thorough
ly Hied, not only in the Hospital under the charge »f
Dr. Hastings, io London, but also by all the first phy
sicians of England, a-.d all have fully endorsed it as
an unrivalled remedy io Consumption, and nil other
diseases of the lungs. The following area few of
ths opinions expressed by the Medical Faculty ol
England. Dr. Williamson, of Manchester, thus
writes: “ Under its influence I have seen the eras
ciated being, on whose brow death had seemed to
wave set his seal, acquire invigoration and strength—
and exchange his early mornings of intense suffering
and distressing cough for the sound which
alone accompanies sound health.”
DR. WARE, of Liverpool, says: “I regard Has
tings’ Syrup of Naphtha as one of the first medical
discoveries of any age, and consider its agency in
curing consumption as established beyond all doubt
or question.” A single bottle «ill prove its efficacy
All the proprietor asks is the trial of one bottle, the
action of which will prove to the patient the virtue of
this rr.edLine. Coughs, colds, bronchitis, decline,
asthma, night sweats, and spitting of blood, are
cured in a surprisingly short spare of time; the se
verest colds having yielded to the treatment of the
Naphtha Syrup in the short space of forty-eight
hours. To enumerate all the cures perfoi med by this
medicine would occupy a volume. The agent can
show hundreds of certificates. Purchase a bottle,
and use it— you will then need no certificate, it wi I
recommend itself. Price One Dollar per bottle —or
six bottles for $5.
All the above popular Medicines are for sale at
New York wholesale and retail prices, by HAVI

Married ladies, in delicate situations, find great relief
from constantly wearing this Plaster.
'J he application of the Plaster between the shoul

S3OOO REWARD!!!
REUBEN RICH’S PATENT CENTER VENT
WAITER WHEELS.
FOR FACTORIES, SAW AND GRIST MILLS, COTTON GINS, AND EVERY
other purpose to which a Water Wheel can be applied. (Made entirely of Iron, with Iron Gates.)
AGAINST TURBINE. HOTCHKISS AND ALL OTHER WHEELS.
I WILL GIVE SSOO reward to any person who
will produce a patent WATER WHEEL that
will do as much business with the same quantity of
water under any given head, from three to thirty feet.
1 will give SSOO to any person who will produce a
Breast Wheel under a head of eight feet or less, tha’
shall equal it in power and saving of waler.
I will give the same amount to any one who will
produce un overshot or undershot, that will last with
my Wheel, and not cost more money sooner or later;
or
I will give the same reward to any man who will I
produce an overshot, undershot, or Breast Wheel, that J
will run as steady as my Wheel; or,
I will give SSOO to any one who will produce a I
Wheel of any sort or kind, patented or not, that will I
combine, to the same extent, cheapness, durability
power, speed or simplicity, so easily applied in all
riluations, and so universally applicable to all pur
poses and every locution.
Or, I will give SSOO to any one who will produce a
Hotchkiss Wheel that does not. consume fifty percent
more water to do the same Sawing or Grinding.
This Wheel (one of the greutent inventions of the
age!) combines every quality that is desired in a Wa
ler Wheel. It is adapted to every head and fall,
from two feet to any height,—is equal, in economy of
water, to any Breast or Over-shot Wheel, under a
high head of waler, and superior under a low <>r
medium head, —is more durable, less likely to get
out of order,—and is infinitely cheaper. It is also
incomparably more, steady in its motion, —sufficient-
ly so. indeed, us to require no Governor, even with
Cotton Factories making the finest fabrics!
It has many other advantages over the Breast and
Over-shot Wheel. The first is in being so compact
that it can be applied where there k not room for
these Wheels, the largest size being but 5 feet in di
ameter. The second is, that being much quicker in
its motion, the intermediate gearing required in the
Over-shot to get up speed, is with this Wheel wholly
dispensed with. Third, that the higher the head, the
smaller the Wheel. Under a head of 35 feetaWheel
16 inches diameter, venting 18 inches of water, is
equal to a power of 15 Horses.
It is superior to the Tub or Flutter Wheel, for it
does not require more than one fourth to one third
the water, and is more durable, and not much if any
more expensive.
It is likewise superior to any of the Re-action
Wheels, now in use in the South, for it keeps in or
der a much greater length of time, and uses not more
than about one half the water !
It is superior to Wooden Wheels of all kinds; runs
under backwater, and secures the entire head and
fall.
For Cotton Gins it is the only Wheel; with a small
quantity of water, and under any head, the Gin can
be driven. (It is well known that a Water Gin will
turn out better Cotton and more of it in a day.)
On tide water, these Wheels can be run 12 io 18
tnarsout of 24, and cost but little, compared with any
other.
In level countries they can be used where there is a
good supply of waler, and a head of only 2 or 3 feet;

OGLEBY’S COTTON GINS.
STILL IMPROVING I
WE STILL CONTINUE to manu&ture
Cotton Gins of the very finest order. For sev
eral years past we have been able to sell all the fine
Friction Roller Gins at $3 per saw, which we could
make, without the aid of a travelling agent. H e
have made the gins, and the gins, or rather the cot
ton ginned by them, have sold others as fast as we
couln make them. We have not been content in be
ing able to sell, but it bus been our aim to continue to
improve. Each year the demand has increased, and
as our fine gins have been used, we think we can af
firm the planter has realized increased profits. It
I has been truly said that the finest article of cotton
ever offered in tbe Savannah market has been raised
Hancock county. The crops of several individ
uals have been esteemed of this character. Some
have had offers for lheir entire crop, to begroun, at
Che highest prices, and in every instance our gins
have been used to produce this fine article. When
cotton is low j cent, perib. in price tells in a moderate
crop. We think we can safely affirm that in every
instances where planters have managed their crops
neatly and ginned on our gins, they have received
the very highest market value —in many instances |
cent, over the highest market price.
It has been said by some persons, interested in
essening the character of our gins, that they do not
stand as high in Hancock county as they have done.
We saould think this a great mistake, from tbe fact
of an increased demand in the county. We know
many opposed buying at first on account of the price,
but we are assured from the increased sale and from
gratuitous commendations of our gins, that tbe far
mers are beginning to view it good economy to buy of
us. W'e are also seldom able to sell a common gin,
which we make as low as other gin-makers. Our
last year’s gins have given even greater satisfaction
than any we have ever made before. We will deliver
to purchasers, ats3 per saw, our fine Friction-Roller
Gins ; or common kind from $2 t 052.50, as in qua (
ity. All communications will be immediately an
swered. G. T. OGLEBY & BROTHER.

The cotton ginned by them, as to quality, has met our
most sanguine expectations, and has in every instance
come up to what he has promised.
As we have been enabled to realize prices higher
than from common gins, we think it is economy to
buy his fine gins.

IMPROVED COTTON GINS.
OWING to the almost unparalleled satisfaction
which lheir GINS have given, particularly
those of last year, the subscribers are induced to call
die attention of the planters of Georgia, Alabama and
I South Carolina to their
FACTORY IN NEWTON COUNTY,
!and request a continuance of their patronage. No
better guarantee of the excellence of their Gins is
needed than their wide circulation, and the expressed
; satisfaction of some of the most experienced and ex
tensive planters and Cotton buyers of Georgia. As
to the workmanship, material and performance of
j their Gins, they are willing to back many of their
purchasers in saying that there are none superior in
J the United States.
’ Their Gins are on the improved plan, possessing
several essential improvements this year over those
of the last season. Every exertion is made by expe
rienced and skillful mechanics to render them conve-
3 nient and durable. Their travelling agents, who will
be constantly passing through the various sections of
, the country, are authorized to sell on the most accom
modating terms.
The Gins will be delivered at the purchaser’s resi
dence free of charge, and its performance warranted,
if the directions which accompany each Gin are fol
- lowed.
All orders directed to the subscribers at Cov
r ington, Ga., will be promptly attended to

j IMPROVED COTTON GINS
! AND PATENT THRESHING MACHINES.
THE SUBSCRIBER would inform the Plant
ers of Georgia, that he continues to manufac
ture COTTON GINS on his improved plan, at hia
Factory m Morgan county. His Gins are well known
and universally approved throughout Georgia, and a
portion of South Carolina. They are made of the best
materials, and no expense will be spared to make
them durable and convenient. The very large sales
he has made for the last few years is sufficient gua
rantee of the excellence of his work. His Gins will
be sold on the moat liberal terms, and delivered at the
purchasers’ residence, and warranted to perform well,
if used according to directions.
He is also manufacturing
PATENT THRESHING MACHINES,
on a plan entirely new in the Southern country, and
far superior to any now in use; they will do about
three times the work of the common Thresher, and
thresh the straw much cleaner. They are run with
common Gin Gearing, or with horse power, for
threshing in the field. With good attention, they will
thresh 20 bushels of Wheat or 25 bushels of Oats per
hour, and are not subject to get out of repair. Con
tracts may be made with my travelling or local Agents
for my Gins or Threshers, or by ordering them direct
from me. JOSEPH WINSHIP.
