The Pointe C upee Echo of the Uih last, says that tha cotton crop in that parish will be better this year ths n for several years past. The same pa per says that the corn and cane crop bad suffered from the long drought. Several sugar plasters in Po nte Coupee, were to commence grind ing in • few Jay*. Later fruui Texas, the arrival of the steamship Louisiana, Capt. Forbes, we have Galves'on papers to tha 10th inst, with corresponding later dates from o;her parts of Texas. The San Antonio Ledger announces the death of the Hon. John H Rollins, U. 8. Indian Agent for Texas. He died at San An’oaio ou the 25th nit. The Ledger says that the San Antonio and Mexican Gulf Railroad is in a fairway of he ir g commenced, and under lavoisble auspices. The Comm ssioners met on the first Monday of the pretent month, and as’ertained that up wards of $400,000 of stock in c>sh subscrip tions had already been obtained. A meeting of the stockholders was called for the fi st day in October, to elect directors under the charter, it having been declared by one of the by laws, that the company should to organized and the work proceeded with when a cash I subscription had been obtained Amounting to ; $300,000. The Galveston Civilian of the 7:h inst, thus speaks of the crops: Our last accounts from the interior embrace no news of particular interest. Cotton pick ing is going on with great animation and sue cess. The season hrs proved remarkably fa l vorable for picking, and the amounts reported to be gathered daily by different hands are al most incredible. Five, six, and in one case, nearly 900 pounds of teed cotton are reported, on good authority, to have been taken out in a day by single hands. The crop is short, it is true, but nearly all of it will be saved in the very beet condition. The yield of the State promises to exceed that of last year, from the increased quantity of land in cultivation, though the average product per acre will proba bly be loss. One of our intelligent citizens has just returned from a tour through the inte rior counties, extending some 1500 miles by the route traveled; and he informs us that he every where raw the most substantial eviden ces of comfort and prosperity among the peo ple. The of the country is rapidly chang tug. As an instance, we are told that there is, at one place, a continuous fence and corn fields for eight miles in extent along the road, where four years ago the Indians held almost sole possession.— N. O Pic. From the New Orleans Picayune, I3thinst. Later from the Itlo Grande, The steamship Yacht, Capt. Thompson, ar rived this morning from the Rio Grande. She brought *8,658 in specie on freight. By thia arrival we have a copy of the Rio Bravo of tha Bth inst., published at Brownsville. It appears that the revolutionary forces aro again in mo tion. The Rio Bravo says r We hear, on the a;rival of a special courier last night, that a detachment of the troops of Col. Carvajal, two days ago, entered the city of Reynosa, and demanded of ths Government forces its immediate surren'er. After some hesitation, the demand was compiled w ith, end one cannon and a considerable supply of am munition, provisions, and small arms, fell into the hands of the victors. This was a bloodless triumph, and shows conclus veiy that the peo ple every where are in favor of this revolutionary movement. The Government troops meet with cold looks or hard knocks wherever they turn. At the latest moment the Rio Bravo learned that Gen. Canales had arrived at Mata moros with a considerable body of men. Gen. Avalos went out to meet him, whether as friend or foe is not yet known. The Rio Bravo says: We learn from a gentleman who arrived on Monday evening, on the U. S. steamer Corvette, that Col. Carvajal has received large reinforce ments of efficient troops, and is now in a situa tion to attack any point he may chouse to assail with a perfect certainty of success. We may look for further operations shortly. Gen. Ava los is busily engaged in strengthening his forti fications at Matamoros, and the city looks al most as warlike as when Gen. Taylor entered it in 1846. The following circular instructions have been sent to the officers of the customs at Browns ville: Ccstom-Hovse, Point Isabel, ? Collector’s Office, Sept. 26. ) Sib—The recent reported revolution in the neighboring Republic of Mexico, and the pro bable con u ion which will arise in the business and trade on the Rio Grande, impose upon the officers of the customs of this collection district additional most important and delicate duties. In view, therefore, of the important events which are now transpiring on the Rio Grande, you aro hereby instructed to use imeased vigi lance for the due protection of the revenue, and to report all violations of the laws of the Uni ted Slates, by steamers or in lividuals, forthwith to this office. You are especially requested and instructed to discountenance and prevent, to the exeint of your ability, any invasion ci tl e Republic of Mexico, by armed expeiitions from the United Slates, and to sustain the present Constituted authorities cf that Republic. Very respectfully, your obedient servant. John S. Rhea, Co lector. Another circular ins'ruc s the officers at Brownsville to promptly seize and detain all vessels engaged in the transportation of men an*' supplies, or arms and ammunition intended for the revolutionists, or for the use of b dies of men invading the Republic of Mexico from the United States. The Rio Bravo, in an article under the head '• Who will lead.” says that Gov. Canales, acting Governor of Tamaulipas, was marching on Ma tamoros under pretext of putting down tha re volution, but in fact to head it. The Rio Bravo adds : Should Canales become the head of this out break, it will inspire every good man with dis trust. He has been engaged in so many little squabbles with the Federal Government, which have all ended in his discomfiture and disgrace— he has acted with so much perfidy, and want both of honor and courge, that no sensible man would put the least confidence in any thing un der his control. His own countrymen cannot he'p despising him—the Amer cans detest him as one of the basest of mankind. His foul sac rifice of the gallant Texians under Jordan is not yet and never will be forgotten. From the Charletlon Courier—Uy Telegraph. Baltimore Oct. 18 —The s'eamship Illinois has arrived at New York from Chagrea, bring ing dates from San Francisco to tbe 15 11 ult.

It is thought that but one or two of the four rescuers will be held for trial—one of them is a colored man. About twenty of the citizens of Syracuse who ate interested in the case arrived here this morning. The affair does not create much excitement, and there are but few spectators in Court. St. Louit Oct 17.—We have advices from tbe treaty grounds near Fort Laramie to the 28th ult., by the arrival of Major Chelton and Colonel Cooper, of lhe Army They bring news of the conclusion of tho treaty with the Western Indiana. The necessary presents haJ all come to hand and bad been diatrib ied among the vaiious tribes.

Go-ern ment of a fugitive slave named Jerry, at Syra cuse, is progressing here, but nothing has yet transpired to indicate what the result will be. They were brought down on Wednesday from Syracuse, to be examined here. There is great excitement both here and a: Syracuse, and the court house is crowded to overflow.

Revolution in Chile. — The French brig Marie Louise, from Callao, arrived at Panama, on the 2d inst. She reports that wheu she left, on the 20th of Sept, the steamer Chili had just arrived from Valparaiso, bringing information that a revolution had broken out in Chili, and that many of the troops had declared in favor of Gen. Santa Cruz, for President; that , Ccquimbo and other cities were in possession of the now party, and that every thing through out the republic was in a disorganized state ’ Gen Santa Cruz was the unsuccessful cau ’ didato for the presidency at the late election, 1 Sencr Don Moutt being chosen by ala ge ’ majority. The latter is a civillian, and it bains ’ the firs: time that the army candidate has bson beaton, trouble was anticipated when it was known that ha was elected. Thie anticipation, it appears, has been more than realized. From California. — By this arrival we have San Francisco papers ol the 15th of Septem ber. nine caye later than our previous advices. The intelligence generally is not of the average interest or importance. The Saa Francisco Herald of the latest date, iu its summary pre pared for the steamer, rays: The leading event of interest, and one which has been the chief topic of discussion in po lities! cinicles during the past fortnight, is the election of Stateaudcounty officers,which was held <>n tho 3d inst. In this county, the Whigs obtained an average majority of 095 for Stats officers. For county officers the honors are about equally divided. The returusfrom sev eral of the frontier counties have not yet been received, and there is still a doubt as to there »ull for Governor. The vote is very close; both parties claim tho victory, and the official returus can alone decide the question. The remainder of the Democratic State ticket, in cluding Messrs. E C. Markle and McCorkle, for Congress, ate elected. The Legislature will be Democratic io both branches, and will no doubt elec! a Democrat to the U. 8. Senate immediately after organizing. Ths voto throughout the State is small. A most important step has beea taken by the inhabitants of the Southern counties, de sirous of dividing the state and forming a Ter ritorial government for that portion. Two addresses have been issued to secure concert of ac ion, and a conven ion of delegates has been called to assemble in Santa Barbara on the third Monday in Oc ober. Delegates have already boon appointed to atteud from Santa Clara, San Diego, and other counties. All the members of the Leg's'ature recently elect ed from that section at the state are pledged to urge a division of the ensuing session. Crime has moat sensibly diminished through out the slate, and no execution hts taken place, either here or in the interior, siece the sailing of tho last steamer. The Indians in the southern part of the State are quiet; those in the North, in Trinidad and Klamath coun ties, are becoming somewhat troublesome. The gold diggings continue to yield rich re turns to the labors nf the miners. 3he auri ferous q-iarz veins are being extensively worked, ar.d generally wi’h great success. The amount shipped by *he steamer Panama, which leaves tc-day, $1,700,000, exhibits no falling oil in the production of gold in our state. In the dry diggings, miners are on'y waring for the rainy season, to take out large amounts of gold. San Francisco has recovered from the two great confl igra'.iuns cf May and June, and has been rebuilt in far better style than before Numerous fireproof brick and s.one buildings have been erec ed. and many others have been commenced. Altogether, the condition of af fairs in our state is highly sa isfas ory. Anotherfi sat Mevpaz lit.— The Marysville Herald records another largo fire in that city, which look place on the 10th of Sept.

Hssat te proceed in a few days to the Cosunines river and Lawson’s ranch, on the Sacramento, for the purpose of treating wi h deputations of tho hostile tribes in that reigion, who were th* cause of tho state troops being called into requiaion. Alta California says: With the exception of these tribes, all the Indians South of Pitt river have agreed to tho cim« proposed by Dr. Wezoucrsft, and ho has every confidence that they will adhere to the stipulations, and if not molested five no further trouble to ths whites Dr W. thinks that before tse expiration of the year. th»r > will be as many os 80.000 Indians upon the reser rations already mads, a large number having already commenced their occupation.

The second reservation is on Feather River, and conaiata of a narrow strip of land about aix miles broad by twenty in length, and upon which there are now the representatives of twenty two different tribes. The third reservation is on the Sacramento rivar, to the north of Hutter’s claim, extending back about three miles, and up the river fifteen miles. This will probably be occupied by, from 250* to 3600 Indians from the coast range andall in the Sacramento valley, from Stone creek to Feather r.ver, and from tbe mouth of the Yuba.

Abbott ; Lawrence was still in Ireland, at thelastdates, I meeting everywhere the most cordial greeting. ) The London Times is not Hind to the cordiality of the American Minister’s reception, and in an > article in the issue of September 30, holds tho following language : 1 A certain little poem relates how a certain 1 personage one day took a w alk to see how his snug little farm, the earth, went on. Though it is unnecessary to travel so far for a precedent or a justification of the tour which the American Minister is making in Ireland, there is one point in common between the two visits—viz t that Ireland to all practical purposes, belongs to that power whose Minister it is now entertaining. Mr. Abbott Lawrence gives way to a very natu ral instinct when he makes a pilgrimage to the hearths and the altars that teed the population of tho United States. The American who stands on the quays at New York, sees a vast human tide pouring in at the rate ofa thousand a day, to swell the numbers, the wealth, and tho power of his country. Ho sees that it was the direst necessity which drove them from tho land of their fathers, and he recognizes in that neces sity tho providential means by which the vast continent of North America shall be added to the dominion of men. lie hears tha sad tale of the ininigrants, and secs it too generally confiitued by their miserable aspect. Hisown political sympathies will naturally be with the supposed victims of tyrannical laws and ariitocratic extortion. On further acquain tance with these hapless refugees, his interest cannot but increase, for he finds affectionate and hopeful, genial and witty, industrious and inde pendent—in fact, the rude elements of which great nations are made. Hence the desire to see that strange region of the earth where such a people was produced and could not stay—an island, the misfortunes of which are destined to fstni so couspicous a feature in American atory. The terrible incidents of tho last six years—not to go further back—will be the domestic traditions of half llw American people, and the dreadful scenes of fever and ol famine which have so often shocked our readers, will pass from father to son for many generations on the banks of the Mississippi, or the shores of the Pacific. It is this nursery of American citizens, this seed plot of transatlantic States, this great human pre serve, that Mr. Lawrence is now exploring, as we think, with as natural a curiosity as if he had sought, with the crowd, the ancient seats of science and art, and were measuring the acropo lis of Athens, or the forum of Rome. His Excellency has too much respect for this country, and too just a sense of his position, to let the Irish see how an American cannot but regard them. He knows very well that they are all his own fellow citizens in embryo, and that every Gelt will one day renounce the sceptres and coronets of the older world, It is better for all parties, perhaps, that it should be so, little as ws may like to seo our society, our laws, and our soverign, the object of worse than indiffer ence. Mr. Abbott Lawrence says nothing ol all Shis. The Irish flick to an American Minister aa to an angel from Hoavcn, for if he is curious to see the place the Irish come front, they are equal y curious to see a man from A merlca —the goal of all their hopes and expectations. They have set their face towards America, and as men on a march seo chiefly those who are before them, on tho spot which they will the next mo ment tread themselves, so the New World is every year more vivid, and the Old World more faint, In the Irish imagination. Hence it is that Mr. Lawrence finds himself received with almost the honors of royalty. Railway directors and corporaions give him special trains, banquets, and addresses, and every city prepares an ova tion. • » • » • It is scarcely possible to suppose Mr. Abbott Lawrence blind to what passes before his eyes, and wo can only admire the dexterous politeness with which he expresses his sympathy and his hopes for the Irish, with scarce a hint at their flight from the land of their fathers to the coun try of which ho is the representative. We have ourselves (remarks the Commercial Advertiser) admired the adroitness with which our Minister has responded to tho many compli mentary demonstrations made on his account. He has indeed ahown consummate tact and skill, and he deserves all the commendations the Times bestows upon him. But the Times is not frank nor honest in the article, a portion of which we have quoted, or it would have assigned another reason why tho Irish people so joyfully wclc?med the American Minister —it would have mentioned the unbounded benevolence of Amer can people when Ireland perished of hunger, and the gratitude of the Irish people for America's prompt and munificent aid. The New York Commercial has been shown a complete list of the dry goods houses which have failed or asked aid from their creditors in New York, Philadelphia. Baltimore and Bos ton, since the Ist of July la-t. The whole number it only fourteen. This affords strong evidence of the general strength of this class of our merchants. The True Friesds or the Cov.vtrt.— We find in the Albany Express the names of more than five thousand cit’zens of the city of New York who pledge themselves that at the ensuing election they will support no candi date who is io favor of further agitation ofthe slavery question in Congress, or who is known or believed to be hostile to tbe peace measures pas-ed by the last Congress, or who is in favor of re t pening the q res ions involved in them for renewed agitation. This is a broad and solid platform, upon which may unite ad the friends of the Const tutioo, of whatever party, throughout the country. — Nat. Intel.

As Emerald Muse. —The Overland Chroa icle contains the following account of an emerald mine in Egypt : ‘lt appears that tho existence of an emerald mine on Mount Za barab. situate on an isle in tbe Red Bea, bee long been known. It had been worked by the Pacha of Egypt, but the operations had been stopped in the latter years of the reign of Mehemet Ali. A short time ago an English company obtaiaed permission to earry on tho digging, which promises to yield them im mense wealth. Recently their engineer dis covered at a great depth traces of a great gallery, bearing about it evidence of extreme antiquity. Here ha found ancient instruments and utensils, and a stone with hieroglyphic inscription on it in a great measure destroyed. It appears that in his time Belzoni had given it as his opinion that this mine had been work ed by the ancient Egyptians,and this discovery establishes the soundness of hie remark. The configurator the gallery, and the nature ard shape of the tools found in it, it is said, ex hibit great skill in tho art of enginee-ing. From the inscription on the stone, so far as it can be read, it is believed that the laboring in the mi no ot Zsbarah had commenced in the reign of the great Sesoatris, (living about 1650 before Christ,) whom antiquity describes aa combining tho character of a conqueror with that ofa prince of vast enterprise in tbe arts of peace.

There was residing in Morris County, a Mrs. Troupe, the widow of a half-pay British captain. She was a freqent visitor at ths house of Mrs. T-, and on one of these occasions, I etfore she had passed the usual compliments, she exclaim ed, — “ Well, what do you think, Mrs. T. t—l have been to see Lady Washington!" Have you indeed I” said her f riend. “ Then tell me all about how you found her ladyahi”, how she appeared, and what she said," “ Well,! will honestly tell you," replied Mrs. Troupe, “ that 1 never was so ashamed in all the days of my life. You see, Madam, and Madam , and Madam and myself, thought we would visit Lady Washington, and as She was said to bo so grand a lady, we thought we must put on our beat bibs and bands So we dressed ourselves in our moat elegant ruffles and silks, and were introduced to her la dyship.

There we wete, without* stitch of work and tilling in etale, but General Washing ton’s lady, with her own hands, was knitting stockings for her husband ani herself. And that was not all. In the course of the afternoon she took accasion to say, in a manner that we could not be offended at, that at thia timeit was very important that Ametlcan ladies should be patterns of industry to their country women, because the separation from tho mother country will dry up the sources whence many of our comforts are derived. Wc must become inde pendent by our determination to do without what we cannot make tor missives. While our husbanla and brothers ate examples of patrio tism, we should be patterns of industry.** Electro Maonbtic Pbistiro Paxes.—An ingenious printer of Illinois, Mr. F. A. C.

His paper works upon a reel, and Is con tinuous, liko a telegraph coil. The paper ia car ried over the typo on a cylinder, and when one side is worked, the paper is reversed, and the other printed with a most perfect register, and ts they come from the press, the sheets are clip ped apart by an ingenious contrivance.

Os the articles added to our department since my last letter, most honorable notice has been taken by the daily journals. Indeed, for the last four weeks thete has been an erident effort on the part of the leading papers, and of the Times especially, to treat our part of the Exhibition with marked consideration, noticing in full, not only the contributions recently added, but what ever of merit and ingenuity was observed among our heretofore much abused productions. It is not the quality of our race on either side of the Atlantic to be overstocked with humility. When we were best abused, we were not in clined to cultivate any extraordinary amount of self-abasement. And now that we arc most indiscriminately praised, whatever may be the motives of our encomiasts, I very much doubt the salutary effect which will be produced upon us, abroad or at home. Among our new contributions no single one has excited more attention, or been received with more favor, than the Maynard lock and primer, of which I have spoken before. I took occasion to show its operation to one of the editors of the Time’, who was so struck with its ingenuity, simplicity, efficiency, and reduc tion of cost, that it was immediately noticed in that paper, and as a consequence in many others. Through the influence of Col. Reid 1 succeeded in calling the attention of the Government to its merits, and it is now at the Board of Ordanco Department, awaiting the meeting of the com mittee on smell arms to tost its practicability. The gold plate just sent from the house of Mess. Ball, Thompkins & Black, ot New Vork, and during the last week only exhibited, has ex cited much attention from its tasteful design, accomplished workmanship, and above all, ex traordisary auriferous coler. This service of date,a present from the Mayor and others of Sew York, toE. K. Collins, Esq , is said to be twsnty-three carats fine—a most unusual maxi mum lor beating gold, and accounted for by the superior malleability of the California metal. Mr. Bigelow, of Boston, has given us an im portant accession of strength in the shape of some specimens cf Brussels carpet, woven upon lower looms. Although various attempts have seen made to adapt the power loom to carpet weaving in England, thete has never been any machine perfected for that object. Tns loom upon which there carpets were woven has been some time in use, and upwards of eight hundred hands are now employed in their manufacture.

As many colors can be used in weaving as in the ordinary Brussels carpet, ar:d the specimens show an even, regular thread, tar surpassing the productions of the hand loom. By the decision of the Executive Committee, I was obliged to forego the satisfaction of exhib iting that meritorious specimen of art, the apoth eosis of Washington, which was received among our recent contributions. I greatly regret this, but it was not to be avoided. Indeed it was not until the picture was unpacked, stretched, and framed, that 1 learned the Executive Committee feared dissatisfaction would be given by its ex hibition to other foreigners who had been pre cluded from the same privilege. lam happy in being able to say, however, that it has been seen and appreciated by tome of the connoisseurs in the fine arts in London. Mr. Ashcroft’s invention for preventing steam b oiler explosions has attracted much not.ee from engineers and other practical scientific men here. '1 he experiments he is making have satis factorily settled tho correct application of the principle ho claims. Orders have been given for its introduction into several new steamers now fitting for sea. Among tho members of the Jury upon musi cal, instruments was M. Thalberg, the unrivalled pianist, whose compositions have given him pre eminent renown all over the world. 1 feel under personal obligations to him for the fairness with which he insisted that every one of onr instru ments, especially piano fortes, should be tried. In the violins of Gcmunder also, he was of most special service to us, trying each one himself, and returning once and arain to pass upon the merit of aCremoni. with which he was greatly delighted. Should Thalberg carry out his inten tion of visiting the United States another year, our citizens will have an opportunity of enjoying a feast In music to which they have rarely been treated. To the movln* machinery department of the Exhibition, where from the beginning our show has been of the smallest, there has recently been added from one of our Western States, by a Western nan, one of the most ingenious ma chines in the World ; I refer to the stave ma chine of Mr. Wells, of Milwaukie. This very complicated but effective piece of machinery ac complishes the work of six men, taking the timber from block and producing staves of the requisite size and shape far more perfectly than they are ever mads by hand. It is exciting much interest among those who daily visit that part of the Exhibition. Ice Housss.—TWr Editor t Will you or some one of yoxir numerous subscribers be kind encugh to inform me through the columns of your valuable journal, the best and cheapest method cf building a small Zee House, suitable for two or more families during the hot weather that we usually enjoy here among the hills of Vermont? Whether there ought to be a tight floor, and if so, whether the floor should be elevs ted much above ground? —alse, whether there should be a hole for ventilation, one or morel By answering the above you will greatly oblige Yoors, Ctbus Hill. Williamsville, Newfane, Vt., Sept. 27. Ice houses are now built above ground. The o’d method of sinking them low in tho earth is not good, for the earth in winter is warmer than the air vnd melts the ice more. A floor ought to cover the bottom of the house, and straw ought to be placed on the floor, for no part of the ice should come in contact with the earth. A hole tor ventilation is now urually made in the top. The sides should be shielded with tan bark or someth.ng of that nature, and this is done by filling in the bark between the cutside boarding and the ceiling. It is well to have several families concerned in one ice house, for if they live near each other they can all be accommodated, as the house m-.y te opened in the morning for all and then closed for the day.— Ed.

BaisioW) Sec, Crawfordville, Ga, , COMMERCIAL. , AUGUSTA MARKET Weekly Report .Tvbsdat, P- Mj COTTON.—The market during the early part of the week closed to-day, was in quite a depressed condition, and prices very low, with little or no de mand. In this stato it continued* throughout Wed nesday, Thursday and Friday. Saturday there was a better feeling apparent, and yesterday the appear ance of a few buyers with northern orders gave quite an animated tone to ths market, and prices rallied a shade. To-day the prices cf yesterday hove been sustained, and a moderite business transacted. Wo quote Middling Fair 7f, and Fair 7| cents, at which the market closes steady without animation. REMARKS. —The depression in the Cotton mar ket and the heavy decline in prices for the last few weeks, have not been without an effect upon the I general business, all of which has felt its influence ' to a greater or less extent, and but a moderate busi ness has engaged dealers. GROCERIES.—Jn the leading articles of Groce ries, Sugar, Coffee, Molasses, Salt, &c., we have no ' change to note in prices, tbcughjin some, in conse quence of the continued low state of the river, the stocks are becoming light. Thia is true of Sult and Cuba Molasses, yet the supply is equal to the de mand. Our quotaticns will afford a fair index of lha prices of all leading articles. BAGGING AND ROPE.—The demand for these articles is limited to the contracted notions of planters, as to the extent of their crops, hence the trad j in Bag ging and Rope is only moderate. Prices are with out change, and holders are very willing sellers. GRAIN.—The introduction of the new crop has reduced the price of Corn and we now quote 75 a 65cts. Wheat continues to command 81,CO to s>l/25, according to q uality. The latter rate only for a very choice artiole of white. There is some Rye in the market, which commands SI,OO. ( EXCHANGE —Checks on the North command | per cent, premium. FREIGHTS —The River confnues very lew but the rates for fre : ght hrve undergone no change. LIVERPOOL.

The advices from Bombay, just received, are considered favorable, but not so from Calcutta. Money Market. — Theie is no change in the value of money, which is obtainable on moderate terms. Consols have further advanced from 96f to {. Cotton Market. — Throughout the week the trade have bought very sparingly, but a fair export de mand has given some steadiness; still prices have rather given way, and middling qualities are near id lower, while ordinary and inferior are much ne glected. The sales of the week are 33,689 bales, including 7,850 bales for export, and 2,900 an f pec ulation. The sales to day are 5,000 bales without change. We quote Fair Orleans 5| to6d; raddling sd.

Uur »:ear friend was the subject of religious im pressions from Lis earliest childhood professed Christ at 14, preached his first sermon at 17, and, after enjoying the advantages of a regular education, (being a graduate of Columbia College, I). C.) aa- Fumed the pastoral office at the age of 21, in his na tive county, Hakfax, Va. Hie early and uncommon promise scon spread through the surrounding coun try. He was invited, in January, 1846, to visit the Market Street Baptist Church, of this place—at the expiration of a few weeks he was unanimously called to i s pastoregc, al! the duties of which he faithfully andconscien’iously discharged until his resignation, in June, 1849. During this time the Church had in creased in num* ers one third, and I er standing had been greatly e’evated in the community. After sup plying the pulpit of the first B-otist Church in h icb mood, Va., for six months, be received and accepted a call to the church in Augusta. Ga., which position be occupied at the time of hie death. During his annual visit to tie friends in Virginia, ths see-s cf disease were rapidly developed, and, be fore his friends were aware of bis danger, he had ceased from among men. There arc mere facts; but what of the character—the inner sanctuary 7 Here the pen falters and the heart overflows with tender est recollections. His was indeed a character of beau tiful proportions —Gentle and kind as an infant, yet firm and unswerving in the r ght, he towed to no thing bnt the majesty cf truth, and used no means to accomplish any end but those justified by the highest integrity. He knew no artifice—he only knew wbat was right, and did it; cr if (as human) he erred in judgment, his ear waa ever ojen to the reasoning of friendship. Slightly reserved in hia manner, his at tachments were gradually farmed —everafter,he was the warm, ardent, enthusiastic friend, ready to sym pathize both in sorrow and in joy. But the great end and object cf his life was to do good thus to fol’ow Chriat. Ths writer has often heard him say, while expcstulat.ng with him on bis imprudent labor —“ let me rather wear out thin rust out—l would do my work quick'y. with all my might, and go heme to rest.” Indeed this was Lis prevailing wish —to ac complish a great deal in a short time, and enter early into his reward. The pulpit was his own appropri ate sphere, Here ail bodily ills were forgotten, and he warmed and glowed with hit subject. Beth preacher and hearer were carried out of themselves, and seemed for a while co breathe a purer, holier atmosphere Macy, many can testify to the power acd charm of tba'. seraphicehquence which first won item to think on eternal th ngs. In his pastoral vis its, his care was particularly manifested for the lowly and the suffering. In their hearts, there are monu ments to his memory. Bat we must pause, and leave to abler pens the tatk of portraying a character at once so cot-ie and co pure. We are bereft indeed. Friend of my heart, farewell - we can but weep with that !on»ly mourner, who best knew and most keenly feels his loss. Her prop has been removed —weak and defenceless, she trembles beneath the blast—this earth baa for her no other hop* nor joy. But look —Gcd ia thy friend—and he, tby hut-band, who so willingly and peacefully yielded up his spirit, (thus falling asleep in Jesus,) beckons thee on to higher Lopes and joys. His end was perfect peace—his heart was staid on Gcd. Todtis aged p«rents, severe, ndeed. wi'l be the iheck—while the large and influ ential church, ever which he presided, who fully ap preciated the worth r.nd talents of oar dear friend, will stare largely in the general sorrow, AUGUSTA PRICES CURRENT. = BAGGING.—Gunny.. r Kentucky ‘ none, ft Dundee* ••• ••••♦•• •* Ha 13 f BACON.—Hams per lb. 12ft a 14 1 Shoulders---••• •••• u 10 a 11 Sides “ 12| a 13 * Hog round • M —a ■ BUTTER.—Goshen “ 25 a 30 j Country “ 10 a 25 BEESWAX.— “ 18 a 20 BRICKS— per 1,000 550 a 600 CHEESE.—Northern.-. .per lb. 9 a 11 English Dairy-••••• u 11 a 12| COFFEE.—Rio “ 9| a 11 Laguira «< lOj a Hi Java « 13 a 14| DOMESTIC GOODS.—Yarns 80 a 90 | Shirting per yard 6 a 7 i “ « 5J a 7 1“« 8 a 8 5- " 9j a 10 6- “ «• 11 a 14 Osnaburgs « 9ft a 10| i FEATHERS- per lb., dill, 30 a 32 i PISH. —Mackerel, No. 1 per bbl. 13 00 a 14 50 1 No. 2 “ 11 00 a 11 50 No. 3 “ 7 00 a 8 00 No. 4 “ 5 50 a 6 00 Herrings. -per box —a 1 00 FLOUR.—Country. ••• per bbl. nene.
