j, Hon. B. H. Ovar.er -.—Dear Sir .-—Yoa are the
d nominee of the Temperance Society of this State
!- for Govemcr, and you have accepted the srme. I
> am a Temperance man, ar.d fully calculated to vote
for you. But, sir, allow so old man, and at this
. tima bowed down with a puinfai affliction, to state
to you, and through you to the Society who ap
f pointed yon, a few matters for reflection. Several
paruons are named by the Whigs ae candidates
, X will name one only, Jenkins—who has more
, claims than all the rut, and a good Temperance
1 man himself. Your nomination hes assisted to
, cmbarrai-s him, as it is quite sure, Tiay very eure,
if yon both are candidates that neither will he
o'cc'od. Thus far, it is not known whether
Je veins will accept tinder the circumstances, fVeil,
toy tiiit is to ; is it not prudent for ono to with
draw! Jenkins's an old experienced man, has
the confidence of his party, and many Z/emxrati
alto. We want a man of exp-erience, the strongest
in the State. The approaching period ia ominous
of critical and important erenii. There are the
wars of E'lrype, the particularsitnation of Spain in
r gird to this country, our own country strifes—
abolitionists, stalking among na in broad day, pro
pagaliny their creed openly, to all classes —within
our own borders, dijficuUUe will be found— ah yes,
svjicient to require tho most experienced amongst
ns. Therefore, Jenk ins is the man, fully able, is
competent to the nnder’akicg. Now, ailow me to
suggest: You resign in his favor, (or withdraw.)
He may be more willing to come out as a candi
date at once, in that 6vent; and yoa will have the
magnanimity of showing wha*. you really are, and
that on the most important occasion that may ever
occur again, in a lifetime. This act would not he
forgotten by your lriends, and your name would,
by a little dtlay, receive a growth of unusual inte
rest, —by another election you may succeed ; but
at this period it is unreasenable to expect, what
ever may be your qualifieatiore. I do not doubt
yonr qualifications ; but why clog? and endanger
the name cf a good temperance man, when you
will not be yourself I You must not be
lieve all that is told you—your friends hope, hence
they tell you it is so. Instance my oum county,
Greene, called by seme tho banner county, last year
had threo candidates, a full ticket, for the Legis
lature, and only electel one man! Temperance
men are as liable to be mistaken as others. Yon
should loose nothing by thus declining; if yon
have expended money, it should be restored to
you by the Society; I feel bound to pay my quota
at laaet. If the Committee who act with you will
not consent to release you, justice would say you
should take it in yonr own hands, and act as yonr
judgment dictates. lam no politician—l have no
rights but what the constitution of my country
gives all honest men. I desire to speak the truth;
if I have done so, in this first attempt ever made
for the pnblic eye, you are in duty bound to re
flect, at loss!, as it is done by a friend, in good faith.
Very respectfully, yours,
Thomas Cunninsham.

In theve counties wo visited 8,118 families, sup
plied 1,560 of them by sale and gift, farnißhed
1,267 poor children with a copy of the New Testa
ment, and pnt into circulation 8,600 volumes.
Since my last Annual Report to the American
Bible Society, in May, 1854, twenty counties have
b :en thoroughly explored and supplied under my
special supervision; by which I mean that I have
raised the funds, purchased books, employed Col
porteurs, sent them out under written instructions,
and received their monthly reports.
In these twenty counties wo visited 80.262 fami
lies, found 8,272 families destitute, and supplied
them by sale and gift, gave 4,671 poor children a
copy of tho N3w Testament, and put into circula
tion 10,953 volumes.
Gince my appoint meat as State Agent, in Jan
uary, 1832, seventy-five counties havo been explored.
In the>.o, we visited 75,750 families, found desti
tute and supplied 16,1700 f them, gave 18,645 poor
c' iidren a copy of tho New Testament, and pnt
into circulation 45,820 volumes.
While engage! in this glorious end blessed
work, I havo acted upon tho motto of your enor
gotio society, 41 We will not cease to labor until every
oounty and family in Georgia are supplied with the
previous word of G'hL,”
And now, may I not bo omboldoned, by your
past generosity, to ask for aid during the present
year ? There aro many destitute places yet unvis
ited, in counties too poor, or too much pressed by
hard times, to help thomaolves to any considerable
extent. And shall I f-il to supply them for this
reason ! Must tho work, aliea yin progress, bo
abandoned I Shall the poor, in theso less favored
portions of our boloved IStato, bo neglected and
allowed to perish, because “tho times aro hard?”
I trust not. Nay, I confidently believe that the
good people of Augusta, hitherto signally liberal
will romombor your motto, and heartily co-operate
with us in our humble endeavors to put it in prac
tice. Wo havo abundant reason to thank God for
our success, and to work up to the prayer, bo often
in our mouths, “ Thy kingdom come .”
Respectfully, your obedient servant,
G. J. Peabck,
State Agent of the A. B. S.
It was recently stated that the brig Hickman, of
Boston, bad been fired iuto three times, on the
Spanish coast, bronghl-to, ai d hor papers examin
ed. A communication in the St. Johns (N. B.)
News, signed 4< A Passeugor,” who says ho was on
tho bark Thalie, a Britiah vessel, gives another
version of the affair. He says the vessel on which
he was a passenger was in the vicinity when the
Spanish cruiser appeared. Hia vessel—tho Thalia
—immediately hoisted hor colors and fell to the
100 of the cruisor, this bsing, he says, a customary
mark of courtosy towards a mau of war. The
compliment thus paid was politoly answered, and
the Thalia permitted to pass on. The writer then
adds:
“Tho Hickman, of Boaton, next onme within hail
of the Spaniard, and instead of doing as t we did,
hoisted his banting, that it might bs seen that he
belonged to a civihxed country, he doggedly at
tempted to move away, not disposed to teil his
country. The Boaniard (not knowing but the
schooner might be a pirate, or a filibuster,") fired
a blank shot across his bow to bring him to his
senses. This had no effect. A second shot was
fired across the stern of the sohooncr, and as these
two hints did not produce any effect, the Spaniard
pitched a ball towards the hull ol the Hickman.—
This brought the schooner np. Tho vessil was
overhauled, and suffered to depart after the officer
who went on board found out she was a legitimate
trader.”

Gkoxgia Cxshmkb* Wool.—Wobbw yestorday,
in tho Agricultural Bureau of the Patant Office,
saya the Washington 6tor ot Wednesday a beauti
fnl sample of the wool of tho Angora goat, from
Mr. Richard Peters of Atlanta, Georgia. This
specimen is very flue indeed, being some ton inch
es long as soft and glossy as silk, and pare white
in color. Tho goat* from which this wool came,
are the produce of an importation made by I>r.
James 15. Davis, of Columbia, S. C., in 184*—seven
ferns es and two males. The flock is now owned
by Mr. Peters, and numbers, perhaps, sixty. Dr.
Davis is now about embarking for Persia to obtain
more. The yield of the fleece, in this country, is
from lour to four-and-a-half pounds annually—
The experiment of introducing these goats into
the United S.atea, hss been entirely sucoesfal, the
yield here being much greater than in Asia Minor,
whore it ranges from one to four pounds. The only
embarrassment to their rapid increase among us
thus far, is the fuot that the males born in the flock
greatly out number the females.
The ships Lawrence Brown, Capt. Pierce, and
the Champion, Captain Jenkins, for Havre, were
cleared on Priiay, by Messrs. Geo. A. Hopley A

To first had 417 bales of Baa Islaid and 2804 bales
of Up'and Cotton, and $3 tierces of Rice, weigh

Cp'aad Cotton, and 89 tierces of Rico, weighing
1,481,644 pounds, and valued at $165,289.

UraraxssiNO Sticins or a i'snans —A widow
from Louisville, Ky., with cue child, stopped at
the Mansion House, in Buffalo, N. Y., on fnday
last, and the next morning the unfortunate woman
was found dying from the effects of laudanum.—
She expired a few moments after being discovered.
She had been a respectable woman, but had made
a false r.ep in life, and was so fallowed and perse
cuted by those who had led her on to, and par
ticipa’ed in her crime, that, after trying to get two
or three respectable situations, and being foiled
by bor persecutors, she destroyed herself.
Ei.-4v.th os Slavebt. —Koseath scarcely writes
a single letter to a New York journal in which he
does not harp upon the “curse of slavery.’ When
he was in the United States he war perfectly mum
on that subject. His philanthropy arises from the
fret that the South would not lionize him, and de
clined puting money in his purse.

diately di-patched to San J nan del Sad, Nicaiagna,
for the protection of American residents there,

Wo mentioned in the summary of news by the
past steamer, that letters bad boon received at San
Francisco, from Mr. Melggs. The San Francisco
Herald publishes ono of them, as follows:
Talcahuano, Chile, Jan. 27, 1855. !
John Nugent, Esq. — Deab Sib: On my arrival
at this place, on the 18th inst., 1 calied upon
Charles Minturn, E*q., and was much surprised
to learn from him that my departuro had caused
an extraordinary excitement, and that my name
had been handled with much serverity. At first I
deemed it unnecessary to say one word in reply,
either byway ol juFt iioation or defence. 1 have
to day, however, received from Valparaiso, n file
of tho Alta California, from 7th to 15th October
last, and a torn portion of a papaj: which 1 take,
from tho type, to be the Hearld of the 16th Octo
ber.
In all of these papers I find charges against me
which aro wholly untrue, and which I will prove
to be so by respectable parsons now residing at
San Francisco. I intended giving you a short his
tory of my sporationß by the steamer which leaves
Valparaiso on the Ist February, but in couse
quenco of some row arrangsments the steamer
wuich takes this leavo in one hour, having Ibis
moment arrived from the South—l mutherefore
defer particulars until next mail. Suffice it for
the present to say, that if one half of the charges,
as preferred in the Alta, havo really boon made,
there are some in San Francisco who are not so
honest as I had supposed them to bo. It is usual
to ask a suspension of public opinion until after
an investigation. I shall not resort to this mode,
but will now say lor tho benefit of those who havo
been my frionds, that for all acts of mine, I, alone,
am responsible.
No living soul besides myself knew the cause of
my leaving California. Komo I find, by tho papers,
have availed thomselves of my failure to say they
havo lost largely by me. My brother, who is with
me a 4 present, will arrange his own matters on his
return'to Sun Fran isco, which will not bo very
long hence.—ln regard to the amount of money
taken by rae from Ban Francisco, allow me to say
that in my letter to Messrs. Gcdeffroy, Billem
Co., which I presume they received after my de
part ur •, I stated the true amount within five hun
dred dollars more or less. I presume they will
snow yon that portion of the letter.
I regret having left. Ido not like this country,
and wore it not for my wife and family, (who are
as yet perfectly ignorant of aDy charges of wror g
against me,) I would return by this stoamer and
tako all tho chances. When 1 shall havo reached
a ccut try where I may settle, I shall proposo to
my creditors to renew the balance after my assets
left shall have been exhausted and will cheerfully
devote tho balance of my life for their benefit.
Shall leave here on tho Ist of March.

The Rimac was built in the United States, and

and owing, it is taid, to the dense fog, was wrecked

Immediately upon the arrival of Flor s, the

permitted to remain m Peru, and begged his
passport, should Flores not leave in the following

The present victorious army of Castilla has be

of auoth*>r one of those “severe and bloody rev -
rations,” before this unfoi lunate country becomes
quieted.
A number of arrests have baen made at Guaya

The Boston Advertiser has the following news
from a commercial house in Canton, under date of
February 12, it being the latest date from that city:
“ During the past month every thing has re
mained quiet in our immediate vicinity, and tho
natives appear to have acquired more co. fidence
in their Government and its ability to proteot
thorn. Tho blockading fleet at Whampoa still
maintains its position, however, and no supplies
eau reach the city by native vessels, the Manda- 1
Tins’ force being insufficient to force a passage. 1
Dissensions among tho rebel lenders are said to 1
have prevented any serious attack upon Canton, 1
and tLe action of both parries has heretofore been J
confined to burning the villages and devastating I
the country in the neighborhood of Whampoa, *
while tho quantities of teas, cassia, silks, &c. cf- 1
sered for sale at the headquarters of tho rebels, |
prove that their aggressions uoon the property of '
their countrymen have been very extensive. At *
Shanghai tho French forces have been repulsed in 1
au attempt to storm the city, and the Triads still '
continue in possession, notwithstanding the re- I
pealed efforts made to dislodge them. It was re- 1
ported that tho French Admiral would await the <
arrival of reinforcements before renewing his siege f
operations.”
Tho Friend of China of February 15 says that on ?
the 23d March nine junks arrived i?' tho harbor .
us liong K »ng crammed full of Fokien men j
dressed a* imperial soldiers, reported as number- ,
ing two thousand, from Amoy, where they bad .
boon enlisted at $4 a month, and destined for the
defence of Canton. They were ordered away, as
it would be a bicach of neutrality to permit them *
to land, and they proceeded to tho westward. It |
is not known where they had gone, and there was ,
reason to apprehend that they might fall in with a
number of junks under the rebel flag anohored .it r
Ecmo distune': in the bay. It is thought they .
would be unable to reach Canton by wator. «
The U. 3. sur7eyiug ships Vincennes, F. Cooper,

the Powhattan ai Japan.
Tne Friend of China publishes in Chinese a no
tice addressed to their excolieucies tho representa
tives of the western nations, of which it givoa the
subjoined free version. After telling the intention
to proceed on Canton shortly, of the treachery of
tho Manchousand tho determination to extermin
ate tho whole of' them, tho Rebel Chief goes on to
say, speaking of various southern and central
provinces under revolt:
4 AN havo submitted to our arms but Canton, and
this place we will lmve soon. But the merchants
of your nation behave very improperly, and oiten
carry gans end gunpowder in their lorchas under
rice, which they soil to our vicious enemies. Now,
I entreat your Excellencies to prohibit these lorchas
from convoying ctunon, gunpowder, or even rice
to Canton to sell to the oppressive Mandarins ; and
do not permit your steamships to carry tho abom
inable Tartar soldiers forward and backward.
When we get Canton wo will trade with your peo
ple and give them advantages.
“I further entreat you to give notice to your
n orchauts to remove their goods from Canton
within throe days from your roce'pt of this (edict.)
English, French, and Americans can remain until
the end of this (Chinese) year, (“Saturday next.)
From that day no boat nor loroha may pa*s in any
part of the river of Canton, and all foreigners
must (temporarily) abront themselves.”
Tho Friend of China remark* rs follows upon
the want of information upon the progress of tho
revolution in tho North:
“From Nanking no definite tidings have been
received for some timo. Taa-ping Wang and fol
lowers still hold that city, aud the patriot armies
still overrun the Central and Northern provinces.
Tho reports of the Pekin Gazette havo so frequent
ly been proved to be fabrications of the Imperial
ists, designed to conceal their reverses, that no
reliance can be placed upon their contents. We
are absolutely in tho dark as to the roal posture of
matters in tho neighborhood of Pekin and Nanking.
There is, however, the significant fact that a rival
Emperor has held for nearly two years his Imperial
Court in the old capital of the Ming dynasty, and
that his armies, dispersed in different directions,
arc giving full employment to the Manchou Gov
ernment in every quarter.”

Tax Late Mcb at Paekville, Mo.— Further
Particulars. —The telegraph has already given an
account of the destruction by a mob of the office
of the Parkville (Mo.) Luminary, published by
George S. Park and W. J. Patterson. It appears
the editors* though not abolitionists, did not com
ment upon the emigration from the North o! Kan
sas in terms suitable to the mob, and hence the
destruction of their office, accompanied by other
indignities. The Bt. Louis Intelligencer, after re
ferring to the proceedings of a meeting of those
mobltea, says:
They procoodcd to the office, tore the press from
the building, mounted it with a cap labelled “Bos
lou Aid,” marched it deliberately through the
streets of tho town, an l tossed it into the liieson
ri river. They had determined not only to wreak
their vengeance on the muto wheels and levers of
the printing press, but to givo the owners thereof
a taste of their wra*h, also.
They dragged Mr. Patterson, one of the editors
of the Luminary, into the street, forred him to
witness the destruction of his property, and then
prepared to tar, feather and ride him on a rail.—
Bat a guardian and protecting angel was sent to
sate the unresisting man from the mortifying dis
grace and degraded punishment ready to be in
flicted on him by the enraged populace. Hia de
voted wife dung to him to the last—“stack to him
like a leech,” as a brutal eye witness and narrator
of the scene expresses it—and endeavored to de
fend him, by her feeble strength, from the fnry of
the crowd. She succeeded. Her frail form was
an eff otual shield, and saved her hatband from
the inflictions of a personal outrage supposed to
be lit only for villains.
But While be wa - spared the disgrace of tar and
feathers, ha was given to understand that he could
remain ro longer in Parkvilie. The mob resolved
itseif into a committee, and resolved that if he and
his ooileegue, Mr. Par'-, were fonnd in the county
at the end of three weeks, they shouW follow their
press sod find a grave in the waves of t he Missouri.
Mr. Park was absent at the time, and is, perhaps,
indeb ea to that fact tor his exemption from the
same humiliation visited on his associate.
Another account states that while Patterson’s
wife was clinging to him, end beseeching the mob
to spare him, they took a vote as to whether they
would tar and feather him, and a small ma jority
decided to le'.Jh'm off. Among the resolutierß adop
ted by them was one, that Park or Patterson must
leave the State, but if they went to Kansas, they
(the mob) pledged themselves to go there and
hang them wherever they found them.
Another resolution was to this effect:
“That we will suffer no one belonging to the
Nothern Methodist Church to preach in Platt
county, after this date, under penalty of tar and
feathers for the first offence, and a hemp rope for
the second."

ffardan »« Royal Family of Usual*.
We extract the following interesting acoount of
murders in the Royai Family of Russia, from the
Philadelphia Ledger:
The first surmise, on the announcement of the
death of the Cz*r, was that he had fallen a victim
to some conspiracy. There would seem, however,
to be no groan s for die suspicion ; yet the almost
universal suspicion of murder was not extras,dina
ry, when it is considered how many of the r'->rh! i
hue of Russia have died forcible deaths. What
with the dissensions among the mperial f>m ly
and what with tho conspiracies on the p-rt o' iha
nobility to remote an obnoxious Czar, no dynae'v
of ciT.fedrriucas h«s ever Buffered *> mac'’ froa
the etoel and card since tho days of the Kamats
Cse-ers. TiHeyrsua » fan-ion? definition us the
chtrsrtar of the F.r.ȣian Government, tbet it was
a “despotism tempered by assassination,” was as
true as it was witty, or was witty be can so
cf i s truth. During the earlier period of the
Czariam, nearly every emperor dostroved some
rival or was himself destroyed. Even in the last
c-ntnry, the murder of a Hessian prince almost
univ:really attended or preceded the accession - i
a new monarch to tho throne. The bloody drama
was opened by a father killing his own son, »nd
closed by » son consenting to the murder of his
father. ..
Tne incident to which we first allude w.-s the
secret execution of Aiexis, only eon of Peter the
Great, by order of his father, a. D. 1719. The
prince was hostile to the new measures introduced
by tho Cnr, favoring tbe old Boyar party, which
adhered to tee ancient usages and customs of his
country. For this Peter resolve! to disinherit
him. Alsxia, knowing what this meant, fled
abroad, but beieg discovered, was dragged back
to Ru-eia, compelled to renounce the succession,
tried dv secret judges, and barbarously put to
death.
The next great tragedy which occurred in the
Romanoff family was the murder of Peter the
Third, by direction oi his wi ©, who immediately
ascended the throne as Catherine the Second. This
woman, celebrated no less for her profligate life
tnan for her political geniu®, was the grandmother
of Nicholas. Her instrnrcent in the as aasination
of her husband was Prince Alexis Orleff, one ot
her paramours, a man of gigantic stature, who sub
sequently unblushmgly paraded himself through
Europe, and was viewed with terror and curiosity
every where a- the person who, when the Emperor
resitted, had throttled the unhappy prince with
his own hand. A brother oi this monster wont to
Italy, where a princess of tbe Romanoff liue re
sided, whom Catharine feared, in consequence of
her belter title to the throne, and having inveigled
the poor girl into a mock * carriage, trapped her
on board of a Ru ssian frigate, and carried her a
prisoner to Cronstadt. The miserable victim of
this atrocious perfidy was drowned in her cell sub
sequently by an inundation of the Neva.
The patricide to which we allude was the mur
der of Paul btovJfirst, father of Nicholas, with the
knowledge Mf' sgt the conrdvence of Alexander,
the the late Czar. Paul was set up
on at night, in.hischamber, and nssa-smated after a
protracted struggle, in which he fought with des
perate resolution, though unarmed and in his shirt.
At the period of this bloody tragedy, Nicholas
was an infant. Bat his elder brother, Alexander,
was a young man, and was, it is generally believed,
aware of what was about to occur. Remorse for
the act is said to have embitted the closing days cf
Alexander. It is asserted by some historiau that
even this Prir.ce fell a victim to a violent death.—
It is certain that he died suddenly, when on a tour
in tbe Crimea; and as he nad become quite un
popular with a large party in his dominions, it is
not impossible that he was poisoned. In all those
cases of assassination, it was at first given out that
the Czar died of appoplexy, nor did the traih ap
pear uutil the lapse of years had rendered harm
itss the publication of the facts. In a despotism
like Russia, when a prinoe is to bo deposed, there
is generally no course left but to take his life. Ho
cannot safely be asked to abdicate, for he would
be a bold man who could thus “ bell the cutand
while ho lives, eveu after badioation, thore is al
ways danger of revolution in his favor. Hence

A Fearful Tragedy.— The London Times If ye
before its readers the particulars of a horrible affair
which recently occurred near the Dutch settlement
of Transvaal, at the Capo of Good Hope :
“In the case at the Cape cf Good Hope the Cass re
Indians had murdered, in October last, under cir
cumstance* of g r oat barbarity, ten or twelve men
and women of the Dutch settlement. Immedi
ately Gen. Pretorious raised an army of five hun
dred men, and, accompanied by Commander Gene
ral PotgiettoT, on an expedition to re
vango the blood of the victims. After an absence
of several weeks they reached some remarkable
subterranean csverns, half a mile in length and
from three to five hundred feet in width, where
the Caffres had entrenched themselves. Upon his
arrival at this spot Gen. Pretorious attempted to
blast the rocks above the caverns, and thus crush
s he savages beneath the ruins. The peculiar cha
racter of the stone, however, rendered this scheme
impracticable, and he thon stationed bis men
around the mouths of the caves, aud built up walis
in front of them. After a fjw days many of the
women aud children were driven by hunger and
thirst from their hiding places, and were allowed
to escape; but every man who came forth was shot
dead by their rifles. Oa the 17th of November,
at the close of a siege of three weoks, the besiegers,
seeing no signs of life, entered the caverns, and
tho silence within, together with the horrible odor
arising from ti:e bodicß of the dead, told how
cfLotually their obj-ct had accomplished.
Moro than nino huudred Csffres had been shot
down at the mouths of tho caverns, aud a muoh
greater number had perished by a'ow degrees,
suffering all tho horrors of starvation in the gloomy
recesses within. n
Swiss Paupers and Criminals. —Mr. Fay, the
American Minister to Switzerland, writeato Mayor
Wood, of New York, that the authorities of the
Swiss Confederation have adopted means to pre
vent in future the exportation of paupers aud
criminals to this country. Mr. Fay says;
I believe a largo majority of the Cantons have
given an assurauoe not to repeat, and I hope, with
the zealous co operation of tho Federal Council, to
terminate this evil entirely. With regard to the
820 emigrants whose emharcation for Now Orleans
and New York, were prevented fur a period by
Mr. GouDdie, Consul of United States at X a rich, I
have authentic and certain information that they
wore not paupers, but respectable tiavelers, each
one with a considerable sum of money, furnished
v. ith letters of oredit, and waited for in America
by friends ready to receive thorn and give them
immediate employment.
The evil complained of has undoubtedly existed,
but I havo been for some timo doing everything
in my powei to terminate, and I meet tho reacy
and activo aid of the Federal Government of Swit
zerland. For the honor of the little Republic to
which 1 am accredited, I wish this known.
Baptist State Contention.— This body assem
bled in this place last Friday and adjonrnod Mon
day aftsmoon. Representatives from all parts of
the State were here assembled, and the Convention
presented a fine collection cf the first talents and
the most learned ministers of the Baptist Church
of Georgia. From 150 to 200 delegates wore pre
sent. During a portion of the time the churches
of the different denominations were occupied by
their ministers, arid on Sabbath thero were nine
sermons delivered in the various houses of worship,
to largo and attentive congregations. The most
important character present, ami the one who en
gaged the most attention, was Rev. Mr. Graves,
the “Iron Wheel Man,” of Nashville, the editor cf
the Tennessee Baptist. On Monday night, some
Os the delegates remaining over sfter the adjourn
ment, addressed a crowded audience at the Bantist
Church, on tho subject of a new translation of the
Scriptures. Many arguments were advanced in
support of a new vert ion, in which Rev. Mr.
Graues also took a part in a concluding speech ;
after which tho mee ing adjourned. As the sub
ject was new to ns we listened to the discussion
with interest. We do not think, however, the
last speaker exercised that charity towards the
other aerorninations which the “old translation”
of King J terns teaches. —Nett nan Bamter.

GROCERIES. —The grocery market has been rather
quiet during t e wetk, the transactions being confined
pr cc pnlly to the fll ing cf sma 1 country orders, which
hasuffirded a fiiir business for the season. We note a
slight advance in Rio Oofifee and Balt, and an advance in
New Orleans Mo'as'es, (new crop) Rice, N. O. Whisky
andg.uart's n fined Sugars. In other descript'ons 0/
goods we note no change, and would ref r to quotations
PROVISIONS.—The st ck of Bacon is oc the increase]
The active dou and however, sustains prices, and tome
descriptions, (Sides,) have advanced during the we.k.—
Hams are rather dsll. Lard has undergone no change—
a very choice article will command our highest ftfures in
gm-.1l lots. 8 lour remains as lost quoted.
GRAIN.—Corn has again advanced, and we now quote
$126©1.87; a favorable change in the season would,
however, produce a decline, we think, while without a
change prices will go still higher. In othor desorptions
of grain we note no change.
EXCHANGE.—The Banks supply cheoks on the North
at per cent. prem.
FRU9HTB.—The river continues very low aud can
only be navigated by boat ■ of the lightest draught, and
they not with full loads, freights remain the same as
previousy quoted.
