and which left Hempstead yesterday, arrived here

G M>d Middling, weight 430 pounds. It lias been

The Civilian, of the 23th, says :
The Telegraph mention the arrival of four more
bales of new cotton at Horn-ton Hereafter new
cotton will be the rule, not the exceptional! receipts.
The old crop seems to have been pretty well ex
hausted , and the receipts have fa len below any
point we hai anticipated The amount last week
whs only 267 ba es; this week it will be still lees
| The receipts of the beason thus far have been less

up to 120,(MX) baba. At tbe present rate Ibis esti

The Galveston News, of the 29th, says :
A citizen of Galveston, just returned from a trip
through Anderson, Houston, Leon and some other

crop is splendid—uever better, if as good. No ap
pearance anywhere yet of the worm, or anything to

considerable sickness in the above counties, chills

A British Railroad to the Pacific. —The
Washington correspondent of Forney’s Press
writes :
Extraordinary intelligence has reached here to
she effect that the British government have had
an overland route surveyed from their possessions
in the Rocky mountains to a certain point in Cana
da, by which they will be able to construct a rail
road overthur own territory on thin continent ,
uniting the Pacific with the Atlantic. The proposed
route is much shorter than that of our government,
and as the Britinh government stands ready to
secure a certain fixed rate of interest to all who
may choose to invest in this great enterprise, its
feasibility is beyond doubt. 1 have this mfcrrna
tion from the highest authority.

The Pbilomatheftn Collegiate Institute at
Woodstock, (.a.
Mr. Editor : —Having been, during the past
week, an attendant upon the examination of classes
and other exercises of the Rev Mr Reid s school—
the Philomathean Collegiate Institute—it would be
gratifying to me to know, that through youragen
cy, others who are interested in this institution
should hear from the annual exercises, which are
always interesting and entertaining. I take plea
sure in saying that the examinations of the various
classes were highly creditable, not only to the pu
pils, but a!*o to tbe Teachers, I have never wit
nessed an examination oonducted so as to give all
the pupils a fair Chance to show what proficiency
they had made, more than on this occasion. And
not lees worthy of notice were the other exercises
of tee school. The speeches, both select and origi
nal, were highly gratifying to the friends of the
institution. The vast multiude who had assembled
with such pleasing anticipations, wa*, next in or
der, entertained by a neat and able address, about
thirty minutes in length, from John C. Ried, Esq.,
j of Lexington, Ga , to tbe Polemic Society of the
institution; and for a few momenta by some appro
priate closing remarks from the Rev. Mr. Boggs, of
j Washington, Ga , which were also quite interesting
and instructive.
Here ia a school which baa grown up under the
exertions of Mr. Reid and hie energetic Board of
Trustees, and claims one of tbe highest stations
among the schools of the State. It has grown up
quietly and smoothly, in tbe pleasant village of
Woodstock, which is freed from the sale of ardent
spirits, and many of the ruling vices of other locali
ties, and is a healthy and retired spot. The in
atructora are the Rev. John W. Reid and his eon,
James M. Reid, a late graduate of Oglethorpe Uni
versity, of whom it would not be saying too much,
that for earnest interest in their vocation, for learn
ing and industry, they cannot be surpassed by any
board of instructors in the State. The situation
and management of this school ought to insure for
it a large share of the public patronage. Surely
there can be no point which offers greater attrac
tions, or has more advantages than this for prepar
mg youth for usefulness. Spectator.

Mr. Editor : —Perhaps it may riot be generally
known that cider is a good yeast for bread, and it
may be of some service to the public to publish it
in your valuable paper.
Take a few ripe, sound apples, and wash them
and press out the cider ; immediately put it in a jug
or bottle, and as soon as it gets in a fall state of fer
mentation, wet up a parcel of corn meal, (the meal
should be of white corn, and rather coarse,) beat it
into a stiff batter, pour it on a clean white-pine
board in small cakes, and dry it in the tun Use a
bit about the size of a silver dollar to a quart of
flour, a lump of lard the size of a walnut, aud a
morsel of salt; let the dough be well kneeded, make
your biscuits out with the hand, and you will have a
very sweet, healthy bread.

rimnll-Pox in Chattooga County.
Trion Factory, Ga., Aug. 2, 1858.
Editor Chkon. Al Sent Between the middle
and last of June, a stranger came here on a visit to
his aunt, and in a few days was taken sick and
broke out with the small pox. The physician who
attended him, however, denied that the disease was
smell-pox, and insisted that it was not contagious.
Between the 7th and 17th of July the disease
spread, and numbered seven cases in all. 1 then
moved all those who had taken it about a mile from
the Factory. It was confined to two f unifies, of
fourteen persons, and by the 26th all fourteen had
it. These were all removed from the Factory, and
on the 30th and 31st July four more cases broke out
at the Factory, in three different families. These
were immediately moved out, and we now have no
symptoms of any now cases. Fopr-fiftha of the
ca?es are light, and not worse than chicken pox.—
Some of the patients are well, and all are doing
well Ido not think we shall have another case at
the Factory.
Jos. Gleen, of Summerville, visited the Hospital
on the 18th July, and to-day I was in Summerville,
and Dr. Bailey stated to mo that Mr. Glenn had
broken out with the disease. He had left town and
gone three or four miles below, to a plantation of
Jesse Glenn's. lam using every effort to stop the
spread of the disease, >md hope I shall succeed. —
We have had no death from it, and no case that is
considered dangerous. Yours, Alc.

Mr. Editor :—I have just returned from a stroll
in the vicinity of this village, along the banks of a
little brook which passes through a diminutive val
ley, on its road to the Oconee. The valley is filled
with Indiau Corn of a growth that would satisfy the
Bainbridge Georgian, that upper Georgia has
something more attrsetive to farmers, than the
“red, worn out hills,” he Speaks so contemptuously
of. Our farmers have finished their field-work and are
all boasting of their corn crops, more especially on
the “red, worn out hills,” which are better than the
bottom lands this year. It has stopped raining and
no doubts are now entertained ot raising an enor
inous crop.

Discovery ok an Organization ok Thieves
and Murderers in Texas.—The ludianola (Texas)
Courier says :—We learn that considerable excite

discovery of a band ot thieves and murderers. We i
learn that a man named Bryant Wardick, whose 1
name was published in the list given in confession i
by Mitchell and Wanen, was killed by a party last
week, and others were being pursued. There seems
to be no doubt about the existence of an organized
gan* of robbers, whose operations extend through
a number of counties in North, Middle and Western
Texas, and the people of several counties are orga
nizing to exterminate them. A business letter from
a gentleipan iu Goliad to one of our citizens, dated
July 21st, contains the following paragraph which
we are permitted tp extract.: “This PQupty is all in
arms against a gang of horse thieves and murderers
who have been discovered amongst ps. Qnepf the
gang has been shot and four hung. They are the
gang who murdered the Mexicans for the past two

Rumored Landing of Africans—Savannah,
July 31.—1 tis rumored here, and perhaps oily a
rumor, that the bark E. A. Rawlins has landed 450
Africans sokliowhere on the coast.
The above despatch appeared in the Augusta pa
pers of yesterday, and perhaps it may bfe expected
that we should make some allusion to the subjeet.—
We heard a number of rumors on the street Satur
day-one that, the Rawlins had landed 750 slaves on
the coast ol J'exae —but have no inf-rmatiou as to
thp coprectneas of any of them. The Rawlins is be
low, iu baliact, apdVp frear without papers but we
have seen no evidence of her having landed Slaves
here, iu Texas, or at any other point. The rumo.
probably has no better foundation than her arrival
in ballast and without papers, on her first appear
ance since she was held up some months ago by our
Collector, under suspicion ot fitting out as a r.laver.
We heard an additional rumor yesterday, to wit
that the bark intend to surrender to the Collector,
pay the fine of SSOO for being without papers, ana
