The American MlateCer In < Hina—lniercel-
Ihr Dencrlpilen el an Interview with the
I ommldonrr-.
The American Minister to Chinn, Hon. Mr.
Ward, had an interview at Wooeunn on the 2d of
Jane, with the Imperial Commiaiionere. Thetffi
cial call war made with that pomp which is neces
sary in China to command attention. A letter to
the New York Journal of Commerce thus de
scribee it:
The grand Imperial Commieeionen, who negotia
ted the three treaties, the American, French, and
English, the last year, at Tien-tetn, and who were
to conclude them upon the arrival of the respective
Ministers of theee different governments, had long
been in (shanghai or the neighborhood, npon whom
Mr. Ward arranged to make his first official call in
the afternoon of Thursday, June 2d. Our Minister,
to vigor of intellect and groat strength, prompti
tade end decision of character, ados the utmost
simplicity of manners, as a strong-minded man can
well afford to do, the pomp and parade of oriental
diplomacy being held at their true veiue, while at
the same time he is not ignorant of his position or
nnwiliing to meet the conditions it imposed, Ac
cordingly arra gements were made to appear before
the two imperial Commieaioners, the two highest
t fiicials in Ibe Empire, and other dignitaries to be
present on the occasion, in a style corresponding in
some degree with Chinese ideas of official dignity.
Eighty marines from the Powhatan and Missis
sippi, under the command of Captain Taylor and
Lieutenant Keed, were designated as the escort,
with the fine band from the Powhatan, while all the
effiesrs of both ships who were not on duty,’ were
required to join the procession, together with the
Americans resident in the city, or temporarily
there. The hand, mostly Germane, with their braes
instruments glittering in the son, took the lead;
then came the large company of marines, dressed
in bine, with caps tied under their chins, and arms
polished to the whiteness of silver, while every foot
seemed to neve by a common will which anima
ted all, the Minuter and hia suit followed, and then
the officers of the ehipe and American residents and
o’bers, all in palanquin* berue on the shoulders of
coolies, some carried by two and others by four,
according to the weight or taste of the occupant, or
the courage and bone and muscle of the bearers
The coolies were dressed for the occasion, and
humble as la their vocation and poor their usual
dress, at the preeenlation they looked manly and
even attractive in the strange and fantastic garb
they wore. They were shoeless, but not snns
rulollet, al wearing blue calico pants and a white
frock bordered with an inch of flaming red, while
their beads were coveted with white straw hate
rising to a point, and resembling a dish cover, to
the top of which red silk was tied in skeins, and
spi rting in the wind, or moved by the jolts, grace
tall covered the wbule cap.
We approached the wail, the crowds still increas
ing we entered the gate and plunged into a solid
ruses of buanaLity, about five feet and a half deep
frem top to bottom, and ten feet wide on each side
of the streets, and at least two miles long. Such a
sight con Lardy be pictured and conceived The
streets are quite narrow, paved, but dirty, the re
, eni rains also making them quite el ppery. Seve
ral canals pass through the city, containing much
tilth and stagnant water, while in one place a heap
of foul matter had been piled up for manure, near
ly as high as the bouses, and covering a large
square. A rooming to Chinese fashion, few of the
houss-e are above one story high, all joined together
nieolid blocks, with the front rooms used for stores
and workshops. Occasionally narrow strips of
board painted red and covered wi'L gilt Chinese
characters, suspended by the doors of the shops,
served to give a little taste and variety to the scene;
while not a tree, nor a plant, nor a garden, or a plot
of ttie narrowest dimensions, could be seen. No
thing was to be seen but solid masses of men, wo
men and children without hats, without bonre'.e,
without shoes, anil almost and often quite naked,
treading upon each other, pressing upon each other,
overtopping each other, reaching from the side oi
the street back to ibe side of tbe houses, filling up
all tbe space under the projecting roofs, and then
Ihe rooms used tor stores and workshops lying back,
while at the corners of the streets we turned the
rye could reach the same solid human fiesh filling
Ihs enure street lor a long distance.
There was no movement; there was no out cry ;
not a voice was beard, nor was the expression of
excitement, or admiration, or dislike, seen on a
<ingl countenance. The most perfect order pre
vailed, and the most stolid indifference. Such pas
sionless faces in tbe adult disgusted one, while the
little children, held by the hand or carried in tbe
arms, wbo m America would have been on the yut
ritv at bearing such strand and seeing such an 1m
posing procession, were equally apathetic, never
laughing, never orylng, nor even apparently won
dering All looked like two tiers of consolidated
human flesh, each two miles long, from the upper
siirlai e of which innumerable beaus were thrust up,
like those ot frogs in a pool or puddle. How they
could live was a grave question, and when they
could live not lt-as so. Degradation and im
mortality must be the necessary result, wmch are
the well known characteristics ot this immense
port on ot the human race. I could but thank
Heaven lor the broad domain ol our own country,
which tor innumerable ages will forbid the sane
density of population and the same brutal life.
Turning streets, crossing bridges, and ever meet
ing ibe same dub and disgusting aspect, at length,
when we had matched about two miles, the walls
arose on tbe other side of the city, as an unearthly
st, le of music suddenly bursting upon the ear an
nounced that we bad reached the Governors
yainun, or palace, where the reception was to Lake
place Entering a miserable gate, we proceeded
through a narrow court into a sorry building, cov
ering considerable ground, but only one story high,
and cut up into var.ons apartments, connected by
narrow and dark passages, through which two
indivi luals could not walk abreast. There was a
small attendance of sub officials and servants, and
no military. The nurrow, dark passages through
which we passed into the leceptiou room, awaken
od a suspicion that they were playing a ruse, and
about to conduct us down into the cellar or up into
the garret, till we were relieved by the thought
that in China garret and cellar there are not. En
tering at length the reception room, about JO feet
squat*, with doors opening in front into a small
court, ai.d without windows in the rear or on either
side, and all of the plainest workmanship, with
strips ot paper covered with gilt Chinese characters
suspended here and there on the walls we stood In
the presence of the I jiperiai Ministers.
In the back iff the room an elevation oi one or
two extended from aide to side like a small stage,
with one or two large chairs placed back of a table
in the irout. Close to the stage on the floor below,
were live arm chairs, in which the Commissioners,
Mr. Ward, and other officials, were seated, while
Mr Ward's suite, the American oftioers and oiti
xens, were seated in a line on chairs around the rest
ot the room Mr. Ward was received by the Com
missioners with many smiles and bowings, and con
ducted to the central chair, one of the Comm.is
seiners being on eaoh side, the Tartar on the right
and Ihe Chinese on the left, tbe two other chairs
being occupied by the tcu tai, or Governor of the
city and Ihe other by tbe Governor General of
three adjoining provinces. Mr. MartiD, Ward's in
terpreter, occupied a chair immediately in front,
through whom Ur. VV ard and tbe Imperial Minis
ters were able to keep up a brisk conversation, the
Ministers being in euch good burnor as often to be
guilty of au uudiguitied laugh.
The first Commissioner is said to be nearly 70
years old, wears a quiet countenance, and appears
to be in full intellectual vigor. The second Com
missioner is a Mancbu or Tartar ; his stout torin
and rouud face, and large head, indicating bis race.
He is 60 years old, and full of good nature and talk,
lie seemed to be better informed in georgraphy
and about the Western nations, than the Chinese
Commissioner. Kwei tsing. the Governor-General,
is slender in form,of sharp features, and wears a
pair of immense spectacles He seemed to have
the most active intelligence of the whole, listening
to every word, freely mingling iu the conversation
and his face indicating emotion and activity of
thought. He holds in his hand the absolute power
of life aud death over nearly one hundred million*
of people, or three times the population ol the
I'nited States ! His salary is fiill.UlKl.
Noon after tbe formalities of introduction, and
when all had been seated, cups of almond tea were
served, which was quite agreeable, and then com
mon tea, of a superior quality, tbe tea leaves being
placed Iu the cup aud hot water poured upon them,
the quantity in each cup being sufficient for three
or four libations Alter this the Commissioners
withdrew, with Mr. Ward, into another part of the
yamuu, for privatecousultation, leaving, however,
Wang to entertain us, who was iu tine spirits, aud,
Ihrougu the interpreter, kept up a spirited conver
sation, asking questions, aud, iu turn, cheerfully
answering them. It betrayed singular iguoracr-e,
however, or else was an attempt at deception, when
he asserted that Japan was n dependence of China ;
aud when asked if the Emperor had a Minieter
there, escaped by saying Japan was not thought of
sufficient unpornu.ee to he entitled to one. He also
aumitted Uie Japauese paid no tribute.
At the end of an hour we were summoned to
dinner, in a much larger and better hall iu the yit
mun. aud separated by passages, rooms and courts,
where a long table was set in European style, so
far as the Chinese could doit, anukuives, forks and
obop sticks at each p.ate, that every one might
consult his own taste or skill in his style of eating.
Mr. Ward occupied the centre of oue side of the
table, with the Commissioners on his right and left,
as iH-iore The conversation, again, was spirited
aud pleasant between our Minister and the Chinese
t ‘ommissioners, the first and eldest of whom betrayed
surprising Iguorauce ot geogiaphy and the form of
the earth, inquiring whether Mr. Ward came to
China by the way of India, and how Russia was
situated in relation to Amerioa Mr Ward explain
ed,—when the second Commissioner, the Mancbu,
an 11 mortified by the ignorance of hia Imperial
a<aocia'e, seized nervously an orange, and turning
i round, eiprec-aed hia idea of the form and motion

being seived only cn the most important occasions,
and as a mark of the highest honor. Shark shi s

instead of ckenuc, and was pi oceeded satisfactorily
with several unknown articles, when my e bow
neighbor cried out in horror, “Bote tcotc meat!’
which ustantly cloeed all further masticatory ope
rations. The characteristic of Chinese dishes is
tnngiiittp.
Torse great Ministers cf State are remarkable
for the simplicity of their dress, nothing but their
Manuarian cays, with their buttons, and the feath
ere sticking out in the rear, indicating they are
more than common men. I had the honor to bow
te the Prince Minister, and he returned it. as
though I was hi* equal, if not more. Thus we met
and parted, the sun b-ing ready to go down i and.
mounting our palauqume, we marched agai.
through the solid mass of human flesh, through
which a road seemed to have been cut, like a
canal through a stretch of marsh and quagmire
Two days after, Hon Mr. Ward gave the Imperial
Commissioners a reception in return, at Messrs.
Heard & Co.'s, which was as liberal and elegant
on his part as itwases honorable to them They
came iu great torce, if not in a tasteful display, and
retired with apparedtly the best feeling towards our
Minister, who has obtained a strong ir.duence over
them by securing their confidence and respect.
Toads and Bits —Toads are very useful animals
to the farmer and gsrdener, and it is a pity that
they are not equally so to the bee-keeper. The
meectivorous propensities that incline them to
swa lew beetles metis, and caterpillars, unfortu
nately lead them to eat bees; and not the big tat
drones alone—those fussy o.d fellows, that, liks
-ome biped animals of a higher order, make a great
diu and do little—but the industrious little workeis,
that come home laden with honey or poleu, are
taken in, and no queetions asked. His toadsbip
sits quite still, and w henever a poor little bee comes
witbm reach of Ids long, dexifcle tongue, there is a
quitk snap, and preeto, the bee is gone.
Not content with catching bees on cloverheads,
ana among the flowers ana grass, toady becomes
‘impatient. be marches up to the beehive, and wee
betide the poor, wearied bee that drops short of
the alighting board when he is by. We once had
two hives placed close to the ground, and wish
alighting boards that were easily accessible to the
toad, it he chose to jump a little. One morning
there were two middle sise ones seated on one ot
the alighting boards, Uke sentries, on each side of
ihe entrance, nd they exacted toll from every bee
that attempted to enter, and the toll was like that
levied by the old robber barons of the Kkine . it
was ail they bad. and themselves, too.
The other hive had a great, fat. over-grown
old fellow . playing the part of King Crane. Tbe
way he took down a bee showed that be was an
adept at the business. There he sat, squatted on
the board, with head close to the entrance, and his
big goggle eyes sparkling Misi Bee kligbts. The
great mouth is opeued. the tongue thrust out, and
as quickly drawn back, and with it the gatherer of
hooey. Dome minutes were devoted to the study
of this trait in tbe toad s character, and then they
found themselves taking an involuntary High: over
a fence. The hives ware raised after that, and
toads less encouraged to stay in that vicinity

fun Mrxico. —The Arizona carrsspondent of
the bt. Louis Kepubhcan, writirg from Tubac, on
the IT Lh uit , says that an exprees from Magdalena
says independence is about to be declared in Sono

the bead of affairs. Large supplies of cannon had
been received and 3,U00 men enlisted.
Tbe Island sfttss Juan.
By tb* treaty which settled the Oregon boundary
dispute between the United States and Great Brit
ain, the 42th parreliel of north latitude was made
the line westward to the middle of the Gulf of
Georgia, thence southward, with tbe main channel
to the Straits of Fnca, and through the middle of
those Straits to the Pacific Ocean. Bat it so hap
pens, according to an authority before us, that be
tween tbe point where the line leaves the 19th par
allel and the point where it enters the Straits of
Fuca, there is the Archipelago de Haro, through
which several large charnels run, the two main ones
being tbe Rosario Strait and Canal de Haro. The
former is the one most need by vessels going from
! the ocean to tne mouth of Fraser river, but the
I latter is the wider, though obstructed by some smali
j islets. Both are wide channels, deep encugb for
the largest ships. Between them lie a dozen islands,
fje chief of which are San Jaan, Lopez and Orcas
Island', and altogether they may include about 200
square miles of iana, or 128,000 acres. San Joan
Island is tbe most valuable, and has about 70,000
acres, much of it good soil covered with fine grass.
The British assert tha* the Rrsario Strait is the
main channel’ meant by the treaty, and the Ameri
cans say the Canal de Haro is meant.”
Both parties having joint possession of San Jaan.
acispute has arisen concerning tbs title, which will
have to be settled by the two governments inter
ested.
An account of this controversy reached ns by
the last California steamer, and yesterday we pub
lished a despatch from Washington, which, if enti
tied to credit, indicates that our Government has
already taken the matter in hand, and settled it, so
far as the United States are concerned. It consid
ers our title to Sin i uan as beyond controversy,
and announces, in advance, its intention to submit
to no compromise. Such is the telegraphic ac
counts.
We hope there is some mistake about this matter,
ana that our Government has not been guilty of the
fohy indicated. We pretend to know nothing of
the merits of the question, but we regard it as most
unbecoming, upon the very origin of a dispute
between two great nations, for one of them to come
forward, in advance of ail negotiation, from the
mere desire to bully, or for popular effect, and take
a stand, with the declaration that she will not be
driven from it. We should learn something from
the sore experience of the pest—at ieast we should
shnn a course that once brought upon us an inglo
rious retreat During the Oregon dispute, some
years ago, which we al! recollect. Mr. Polk was
guilty of the indiscretion oi declaring in his annual
mereage to Congress, that our title to the whole of
that Territory up to 64’ 40', was “clear and un
questionable, ’ and that we should maintain it at
the point of tbe sword No matter what may have
been bis individual opinion, the declaration was a
most unfortunate one for the Chief Magistrate, as
subsequent events most conclusively establish.—
We began by asserting an indisputable right to 54 u
40 , but ended by cheerfully subscribing to a settle
ment on 49', in which five and a half degrees of
latitute of this same p operty to which we had so
clettr a title, was acknowledged to be the property
of Great Britain!
Let us learn wisdom from this lesson, and not
agam disgrace ourßeiveein the eyes of the world by
a grandiloquent boast, to be followed by au ingio
rioue “let down.” If disputes arise, let us enter,
like a sober, manly nation, upon negotiations for
their settlement, without arrogance, boast or bully
ing, and then maintain what is right to the end of
the chapter. —Savannah Republican.
A Hindi Ucpabliruu’s Opinion of Dougins.
Ti.e Republic—the organ of the Black Republi
cans at Washington—gives its opinion, briefly but
clearly, of Douglas'last effort for the Presidency.
We fully agree with our cotemporary that, in bis
efforts to swindle both sections of the Union of their
votes, the little demagogue has failed of both, and
will iiud himself, in the end, ‘'e tling down between
two chair3.”
Here it the Republic's opinion, and we consider
it a very sensib e one:
“Tut Douglas Doctrine. —The only thing like
a consistent theory that we can eliminate from tbe
late disquisition of Judge Douglas on tbe subject
of “Popular Sovereignty in the Territories,” is this :
“The Constitution ts'.ablishes slavery in tbe Ter
ritories, but subject to tbe power of the peop e to
control it through their Territorial Legislatures.
Hence, in the absence of any legislation on the sub
ject by the Territorial Legislature, a slaveholder
would have a constilutional right to take bis slaves
into the Territory and hold them there. But this
would be a mere abstract right, without any reme
dy for it* infringement; for he holds that the courts
can afford no protection to slave property until the
Territorial Legislature shall pass laws “providing
remedies, aud imposing penalties, and conferring
jurisdiction upon the courts, to hear and determine
cases as they may arise.” The mere refusal of the
Legislature, therefore, to pass laws providing such
remedies, nnd conferring such jurisdiction on the
courts, will operate as a practical exclusion of
slavery, although the constitutional right to hold
slaves will exist.
” If this is not a fair statement of the doctrine
advocated by Judge Douglas, we shall be greatly
obliged to auy one who shall point out its error. It
is a doctrine which will not be likely to find much
favor either in the North or in tbe South.
“ The North will never accept a doctrine, which
admits that the Coistitntion establishes slavery
anywhere, in any sense whatever, or recognises its
existence anywhere, except as a Stale institution,
existing in a State “ under the laws thereof,”
wholly independent of Federal authority.
“The South will be as little disposed to accept a
doctrine, which, while it admits their constitutional
right to take slaves into the Territories, denies any
power to enforce and protect that right,
“ The distinguished Senator will probably find
himself, in the end, “ Bitting down between two
chairs.”
From California— Seizure of the Island of
Sau Juan by the V. S.—English Resistchce , dj-e.—
Tbe overland mail from California, with dates from
San Francisco to the 12tb of August, has arrived at
St. Louis. Business generally was. inactive and
prices unchanged.
N. P. Wilkins, Esq., District Attorney for Sutter
county, nnd a candidate for the Legislature, was
shot by Judge Stay, of Yuba oounty, whose daugh
ter Wilkins bad seduced.
Senator Broderick addressed a public meeting at
Sacramento on the 9th ult., aud made a full expose
of the bargain and Bale arrangements at the last
Senatorial eleotion.
Later dates from Utah state that a convention
held in Carson Valley had framed a constitution for
a Provisional Government, and declares that Car
sou Valley Is independent of Utah. It gives tbe
name of Nevada to the territory.
We also have Victoria dates to the 6th of August.
The island of San Juan, between Vancouver and
the main land, is claimed by our goverument as a
part of Washington Territory, and has been occu
pied by sixty United States troops, under direction
of Gen Harney. Gov. Douglas has issued a protest
claiming the iriand for the British crown. He lias
also dispatched some armed English vessels to the
island, with 20(1 sappers and miners.
The United Slates vessels Massachusetts, Jeffer
son Davis, Sbubrick ami Active, aud the British
ve-tels Tribune, Sattellite and Plumper were
either anchored off'the island, or iu the immediate
vicinity.
It was unofficially stated at Victoria, that the
matter would be compromised by the joint occu
pancy of tho island until the British and American
governments are advised of the existing state of
affairs.
The Fraser river raining news is encouraging.
Seventy-tive thousand dollars worth of gold had
reached Victoria within a fortnight.
Advices from Oregon state that tbe Poloee In
diacs were harrassing Lieut. Mullen’s wagon road
expedition, destroying mile posts, and burning
grass on all the camping grounds.
The Los Angelos Vineyard of the 15th gives ac
counts.- a battle between fifty troops uuder Maj.
AnuLtead, with four hundred Mohave Indians, on
the Ith of August, in which about titty India os were
killed.
The Seizure of the Island of San Juan —A
despatch dated Washington, Sept. 3d, says :—Gen.
Harney has fully advised the Department of his
Sroceedinga in taking possession of the Island of
uan A reply will be sent by to-morrow’s steam
er. From what has recently transpired here, it is
believed that there can be no compromise by our
government, as it is fully satisfied that the island ie
the clear property of the United States.
Frightening the Girls —A wav up in the north
ern part ot Vermont, says the Knickerbocker, s a
primitive sort of little village, called “The Centre.”
Here, not long since, the :ustic youth of the vioinity
congregated for a “dance, '* “and dance they did,"’
said our informant, “with an uuction unknown to
our city belles and beaux.”
One interesting young man having “imbibed”
rather too freely became “fatigued” in the course
of the evening, and wisely concluded to “retire” for
a short rest.
A door ajar near the dance ha’l revealed, in
vitingly a glimpse ot a comtoi table bed, of w ieh
he took possession with a piospect of an undisturb
ed “snooze. ’
It so happened, howbeit, that this was the ladies
withdrawing room, and uo c-ooner had he closed
his eyes than a pair of blooming damsels came in
iroin the hall, and began adjusting their disordered
ringlets, the dim light of the tallow caxrale not
disc'osing the tenant of the bed. The girls had
tongues, like moat of their sex, which ran on this
wise:
“What a uice dance we’re having ! Have you
heard anybody say anything about me, Jane?’
“La, yes, Sally ! Jim Brown says he never see
you look so ha mi so uie as you do tonight. Have
you heard anybody say auythiog about me ?”
“About you ? why, sartic , I heard Joe Flint tell
Sam Jones that you was the prettiest dressed girl
in the room.”
Whereupon the dear things chuckled, “fixed up”
little more, and made off towards the ball-room.
They had hardly reached the door when our half
conscious friend raised himself upon his e bow, and
quite intelligibly, though slowly inquired :
“Ha’ you heard anybody say anything about me,
girls ?”
“Phansy their pheelinks,’ at that juncture 1 They
tied with an explosive scream.
Canine Sagacity.—There may be seen at almost
every hour in the day a white poodle dog, at the
house of the Cohocksuik Hose Company. He has
around his neuk a collar bearing the name ot Co
bocksink. This dog is only about two months old,
and is a great favorite with the members of the
Company and the many friends thereof. The ani
mal seems almost endowed with reasoning faculties,
and has been taught to communicate an alarm of
fire by the ringing of the teiegraphio bell at the
nearest station box. When night sets in, this
faithful animal proceeds to the telegraphic pole,
and coils himselt at the foot thereof, apparently
as etp, but in reality proving that all animated
things are not asleep that have their eyes shut. Iu
case ot an alarm striking on the bell, he listens very
at;entively, and, as quick as meditation, he starts
for the Hose House, aud barks for a minute-or so.
He then barks to indicate the striking of the bell;
for instance, should tbe alarm come from box forty
one, the animal barks four times in rapid succession,
then stops a moment and barks one time ; thus tbe
members of the company are apprised that tbe fire
is nearest to box 41, or tiia f the alarm comes from
this number. Such remarkable canine sagacity we
have ee.dom heard of.— Argus.
Improvements in Gas Manufacture.— Some
improvements in the manufacture of gas are de
scribed in the London papers. Tne principal fea
ture consists in the use of camphor and ssolved in
naptha, in the manufacture of gas from oils or
grease. The at\: aratus used coc-ists oi a retort, as
heretofore, healed externally The oil or grease,
iu a fluid state, is fed into the retort by means of a
tunnel or a pipe bent into two coils or hoop like
bends. Tne products rising from the retort by
a descending pipe be lew the surface of red hot
melted metal contained in a ctoee vessel, and rise
up through such metal, ai.d the gas passes away
for use. When gas is made from coal it flows into
a purifying apparatus to be purified. When puri
fying by liquid®, the gas is conveyed in a pipe to
nearly the bottom of the vessel, and there escapee
into the fluid contained in the vessel. The gas,
however, is not permitted to ascend directly through
the liquid, but by reason of there being a number of
discs, at intervals apart .affixed to tire descending
part, the gas is deflected off toward? the sides, then
towards the pipe, aud then towards the sides of
the vessel, and so on until the gas arrives at the
upper part of tue vessel, from which it is conducted
by a suitable outlet pipe. To give greater
bril iancy *.o the gas betore ts.reaching the burn
er. it is caused to passs through camphorated etner.
A Good Idea.—There is in Ohio a State farm es
tablished for the reionnation of juvenile offenders.
The farm is carried on upon a large scale, and the
vagrant boys of the cities, wno would otherwise be
inmates of prisons, are there taught to support
toemselves at a business which never tails to yield,
a gcod return to labor. It is said that the employ
ment of farming is so congenial to the active habits
of the boys, that they take great delight in it, and
oease to regard the establishment as a place of re
straint upon them, and seldom break any of its
niiee. There are eighty boys in it at present. The
system Las its different grades of honor and its j
badges, and when a boy has reached the hignest |
grade, and worn for a specific time, and with appro- |
the highest badge, he ie honorably dismissed 1
to his home and parents, and has a passport into ■
aEy career of usefulness which he may choose ; his
transgressions are not remembered against him.
An establishment of this kind appears to us to be the
beet ot aiLkinds ot retormatory schools, and might
be adopted in every State with advantage.

September is usually the most critical month for cot
ton, as the brightest prospects, encouraged by a favor
able summer, may be blasted by the disasters incident
to the season. Thus far, daring the month, the weather
has been unfavorable, there having teea already too
much rain, and a fair prospect exists of a cont .nuance of
wet weather. In some places this has caused shedding
of bolls, but not generally to an extent sufficient materi
ally to affect the total crop, though in some particular
cases it may be disastrous. Tnere is some of the new
crop coming in every day, and a moderate demand ex
ists for it, though old cotton is preferret by buyers a; a
higher rate oa account of the loss in weight in the bales
fresh y picked and packed. The quality of new cotton
is uot so good as it was last year, either in color or sta
ple. It was picked, most of it, before it was fully ripe,
and prepa.ed in a great hurry, wl Lout the usual precau
tions to mate it saleable ; it has not, therefore, sold so
reaaily as would have been the case nad more paios been
taken with its preparation. We observed some samp es
of which the staple was so badly cut by the saws of the
gin that it serionsiy affected the.price, and in most all
that we have noticed there is an amount of trash unusual
in the first receipts, and which indicates that the quali
ty of the crop wLI be inferior to that of last year. It
should be observed, however, that the pickisgs thus f*r
nave been made during wet weather, and the later pick
ings may prove better.
I here is ano.her consideration which it may n.tbe
amiss to note, as bearing upon the growing crop. There
is every indication cf an early fail. The unusually ceol
weather throughout the month of August, the general
course cf the winds for weeks past, while with many
be*ter skilled in natural science than ourselves, the re
peated appearance of the Northern Light, combine to
favor the conclusion that we shall be visited by froat
some weeks ear*ier than in seasons that are past. Should
these apprehensions be realized, we may yet have to
submit to a materi 1 reduction of the crop-
Prices are somewhat unsettled, and tne demand being
iight, it i3 difficult to arrive at any accurate conclusions
a out quotations. A sale was made on Tuesday of
about 100 bales, all new crop, at li4c., classing very
nearly, if not quite, Good Middling. There was also
some enquiry yesterday, resulting in sales of about 100
bags,thej w ere mixed lots ranging from Middling to
Middling Fair. Tne market seems to be fairly quoted
at 118114 c. for Good Middling. We hope to see a
brisker and belter defined market another week.
Rice —The weather since our last report has been on
favorable to the harvest, and proved a senous incon
venience as well as delay to the operations incident to
the season. It is more than probaole that we shall Lear
of some damage caused by the excessive rains, to sueh
as had been cut and was lying on the fields. The crop
is not in as great a state of forwardness as last year,
though the preent prospect for a yield is as favorable,
aLi ihe quality will probably oe beiter.
Ragging —The enquiry for Guni?y is very limited.—
are supplying planters at l3jc., and large lots
can be bought at 13c.
Bacon —a firmer feeling is apparent this week, and
prices are a shade higher, wuh a good demand. We quote
Shoulders ed ati i Ribbed Sides 10£ 810}c.
Coffee— Stock moderate, and prices for common to
prime Rio range from lißl2c. A cargo cf 5,000 bags
cleared at Kio de Janeiro for this port, and will soon be
oti the mars el.
Flour —Demand limited, with a supply of both old
and new. Prices are unsettled and in favor ot the buy
er. We quote Superfine $5.500-6.25 ; Rxtra $6-86.75;
•Family s7oB.
Molassis— Cuba is selling at 2*>c.
Hides —Very dall at I3c.
Hope —Very dull; we quote hand made 7jßßc, ma
chine made e4884c.
Mugars —1 here have been no large transactions since
our last report. The aiv&nce in other markets has
g ven this an upward tendency, and holders are firm ; a
few hlida N. O. sold at e&c.
Sail —bales of about 4uoo sacks were made during the
weea, in lot> at 75c.
Exchange —There are no time bills offering at the
banks a9 theie is no produce moving to make any, and
tbe supply of sight is also remarkably limited. Holders
of good tiuie bills could negotiate easily at interest off,
and probably at even slightly better rates, while some
ot our banas are giving 4 per cent, prem.um for sight
bills merely to keep a supply for their customers at the
same rale. The supply of exchange held by oi_r banks
at the beginning ot the summer was abundant for ail our
ordinary wants, but as rates appreciated in other cities
waile our banks continued to check at 4 per cent prem.,
it of course created a heavy demand here which run the
balances rapidly down. Savannah is the only city south
of Richmond that has continued to check at so low a rate
as i, at which regular customers cau obtain moderate
sums. lu .Sterling there is little or no. Ling doing; we
quote at 109481094.
Freights —Mofoieign freights offering, and no ships up
for loreigu ports. All the cotton offering for New Yora
is taken at 75c a bale by the steamers, and the sail ves
sels get not: ing cf consequence.
CHARLESTON, Sept. B.—[Mercury.]—Cotton—Re
ceived the past week 23j5 bales— v con esponding week
last year, 993 bales ) Exported in the same time to
foreign ports, bales , coastwise 327 bales —making
the total exports • f ihe week 327 bales; and leaving on
hanuastockot 18.305 bales, inclusive of d914 bales on
shipboard not cleared, against a stock of 10,798 bales,
and 917 bales on shipboard same time last year.
On Friday, the first day of the week now under re
view, quite an active demand prevailed, caused, accord
ing to all appearances, by the more yielding dtspos tion
o holders to meet purchasers at additional concessions,
aDd thesa.es reached upwards of 1 COO bales, at 8811}—
pnct s for the lower grades ruling very irregu.ar, and
entirely nominal, wuilethc quotations for Middling to
Good Middling came within tho margin of 1128114 c.—
During the four succeeding days—Saturday, Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday—the market again relapsed
in a quiet state—tbe entire sales having amounted in
that time to only 317 bales, prices having ruled easier,
and in avor of buyers. The enquiry yesterday was
somewhut beiter, and 373 biles chaugad hands—making
the aggrega e sales of the week 1700 bales. The market
last evening closed in ra her an unsettled state, at the
following qu tations: Strict Middling 1148112, Good
Middling 1148112, Middling Fair 11J812. The lower
grades non. inal.
Rice— The general aspect of the market, during the
past week, has not change and in any material point, the
bulk of ihe sales rangiug at from $3483}.
Corn —Tennessee mixed, in bags, by railroad, at Psc
per nushel of 56 tbs., bags included.
Wheat —We continue without a market, the receipts
being light and no demand; quotations, in consequence,
are entirely nominal.
Flour —The market for this article continues Unim
proved, and in fully the same depressed condition as re
ported lor some time past; the demand is still confined
to bakers and city dealers on.y, and extending to but
small lots, lor which ho ders continue comparatively
firm at our former quotations, at ss}B6 for Super and
Extra brands. With the arrival of 1700 barrels the past

only to a moderate extent, amounting to about 30 hhds.
fair Cuba Muscovado, at from 6}87c., and some 45 hhds
New Orleans Fair to Prime at from “4884 c.
Molasses and Coffee—Both articles, with but a mode
rate stock in first hands, remain neglected.
Bacon— There has been a fair demand during the past
week for prime and choice Bides and Shoulders, both
getting scarce, particularly the latter—Sides command
ing freely 10} and Shoulders 9}c. Inferior meat, how
ever. is entirely neglected, and prices nominal.
Sail— A cargo of 2800 sacks arrived yesterday, ants
bulk broke at 95c. per sack, in lots of 100 sacks and up
wards.
Bagging and Bale Rope —The demand for both con
tinues to be confined chiefly to factors, to execute orders
for the interior. We quote Gunny Cloth at 138134 c.,
aud Rope from 84811 c., including Western, Northern
and Manilla.
Exchanges —With some more Sterling bills on the mar
ket than lor some time past, the rates, both at the banks
aud out doors, have ranged from 94810 per cent prem.
No francs offering. Domestic bills are very scaree and
the rates nominal.
Freights— The asking rates to Liverpool for disengaged
room have advanced to 13*32d. for square bales. Thus
far, however, we have not heard of any shipments hav
ing been made over 2d- The coastwise rates continue
iu a most unsettled and depress! and state, both by steam

less to say anything aboiit the Madison Spring, it is so

that we deem it a waste o f time ; but as this notice may
s'rike the eye of someone not acquainted with the
beauties, climate, waters, * ure and bracing air, variety,

over any other Watering pli ce in the Southern country,
and we would most cordially invite your attention this
way. For most all the diseat es which the human fami

We have a Band of Music, inferior to none, Sacred,

And if we do you no goo-i, we’ll charge you no pay.

Dr. Little's * nodyne Cough Drops
A veto and certain cure for Coaghs, Colds, Asthma , Pain
in the Breast ; also. Croup, Whooping Coughs ,
Colds, etc., amongst Children,
This is a pleasant remeoy to take, producing immedi
ate relief, and in nine out of ten cases a prompt cure. >t
exercises the most controlling influence over Coughs aud
Irritation of the Lungs of any remedy known—often
stopping the most violent in a few hours, or at most in a
davortwo Many cases thought to be decidedly con
sumptive, have been promptly cured by using a lew
bottles, and the wearing Little’s Strengthening Plaaters
on the Che st. As aa anodyne expectorant, without as
trmgiug the bowels, it stands paramount to all cough
mixtures.
DOLLAR VERMIFUGE
Prepared aud put up in bottles and vials only by W.
G. Little. In using, nothing else is required to relieve
children of worms; aud. besides being one of the best
and cheapest ever offered to :he public, its frequent use
in families will save much trouble and expense, as well
as the lives of many children; for eight cut ot ten of
every ten cases geuerally require it.
DR. LITTLE’S FRENCH MIXTURE.
This is prepared from a French Recipe (in the forms of
Nos. 1 aud 2; thv 1 first for the acute, and No. 2 for the
chronic stage,) that has been much improved upon in
this country * and from its unexampled success is likely
to supersede every other remedy for the cure of the dis
eases of the Kidneys and Bladder, Gonorrheal, Blenror
heal, and I.u?orrheal or Fluor Albas Affections. This
extensive compound combines properties totally diffe
rent iu taste aud character from anything to be fraud in
the United States Pharmacopea or in private practice ;
and in poiut cl safety aud efficiency is not rivaled in
America.
DR. LITTLE’S RINGWORM AND TETTER
OINTMENT.
Hundreds of cases of Chronic Tetters, Scald Head,
aud diseases of the* skin generally, have been cured by
this remedy, and since the introduction of the No. 2 pre
paration (being strouger) scarcely a case has been found
that it will not effectually eradicate in a short time.
the cure of Cancerous Sores and U cers, it is applied in
the form of Plasters, and is almost infallible.
Physicians are referred to the 13th page of Dr. Little's
pamphlet, to the catalogue sos medicine of the Materia
Medica, that he uses in eompuuding Lis different reuse
dies, and asked to say if-they are not the chief reliance
of the p ofession, as he himself has practised medicine
extensively for mere than ten years, before retiring to
the drug business.
In more than two hundred places in Georgia, and in
all the Southern States, they are to be had; and as
there are scamps about who are counterfeiting his reme
dies by palming off their own or something else, by using
the same or similar names, (for no patent is wauted or
secured amid the absurd pateuts of the day,) let all be
cautioned to look well tor the signature of the proprietor,
and also his name blowu into the glass of each bottle.

THE LIVER
IA VItiORAT olt
PREPARED BY DR. SANFORD.
Compounded entirely from Gums,
IS one of the best purgatives and Liver Medicines now
before the public, that acts as a Cathartic, easier,
milder, and more effectual than ar y other medicine
known. It is not on y a Cathartic, but a Liver remedy,
acting first on the Liver to jectit morbid matter, then
on the stomach and bowels to carry off that matter, thus
accomplishing t wo purposes effectually, withont auy of
the painful feelings experienced in the operations of
most Cathartics. It strengthens the system at the same
time that it purges it; aud when taken daily in moder
afe doses, will strengthen and build it up with unusual
rP t” ty
Fhe LIVER is of the •’principal regulators of the
human body; and when it Qj performs its functions well
tt.e powers of the system Pi are fully developed. The
stomach is almost entirelydependen ton the healthy
action of the Liver for the w proper performance of its
functions when the stem ffi ach is at fault, the bowels
are at fault, and the whole “ system suffers in conse
quence of one organ—the J Liver—having ceased to
do its duty. For the diseas es of that organ, one of the
proprietors has made it J his study, in a practice of
more than twenty years, Qr. to find soma remedy where
with to counteract the pH many derangements to
which it is liable.
To prove that this re raody is at last found, any
persons troubled with Liv*-V er complaint in any
ofitßforin3,hasbuttotry a^/bottle and conviction is
certain.
These Gums remove all n morbid or bad matter from
the system, supplying in their place a healthy flow
of bile, invigorating the stomach, causing food to
digest well, purifying the blood, giving tone and
health to the whole ma /\ chinery, removing the
cause of the disease—e* M fecting a radical cure.
One dose after eating is sufficient to relieve the
stomach and prev nt the food from rising aud sour
ing.
Only one dose taken Qr bcfo:e retiring prevents
nightmare. pH
Only one dose taken at night loosens the bowels
gently, aud cures costiv ness
Onedosetakenafter each i meal wi! 1 cure Dyspepsia.
|y One dose of two tea sp onfula will always re

One bottle taken for fe male obstruction removes
the cause of the disease, ‘land makes a perfect cure.
Only one dose ately relievesCboiic,whiie
One dope often repeated is a sure cure for Chol
era Morbus, and a pre ff \ ventive of Cholera.
One dose taken often will prevent the reeurence
of Bilious Attacks while it relieves all painful feel
ings. Lj
fWOnly one bottle i; r ‘ needed to throw or tof the
system tLe effects of medi cine after a long sickness.
One bottle taken for PI J ann dice removes all
yellowness or unnatural color from the skin.
One dose taken a snort w tune before eating gives
vigor to the appetite and ri_ makes food digest well.
One doseofteu repeated cures Chronic Diarrbsc
in its worst forms, while l_ Summer and bowal com

One or two doses cures M attacks caused by worms,
whiie for worms in child -J run. there is no surer, saf

absorbents. (JJ
We take pleasure in recommending this medicine as a
preventative for Fever and Ague, Chill Fever, and all
Fevers of a Bilious Type. It operates with certainty,
and thousands are willing to testify to its wonderful
virtues.
All who use it are giving their unanimous testimony
n its favor.

THE LIVER IVMORATOR is a scientific Medical
discovery, and is cLily v'orking cures, almost too great
to believe. It cures as it by mapic, even the first dose
giving relief, and seldom more than one bottle is re
quired to cure any kind of Liver Complaint, from the
worst Jaundice or D.vspei>sia to a common Headache, all
of which are the result of a diseased Liver.

BALM OF SAVANNAH!
FOR
Cleansing, Nourishing & Beautifying
THE HAIE.
IN presenting the BALM OF SAVANNAH to the
public, the proprietor does so without any of tbe
heai ation attending the intr. duct ion of a -.ew and un
tried article, lor it has now been fifteen years before the
public, and each year Las added to its popularity The
demand for it having increased so far beyond my pre
vious facilit for its manufacture, the proprietor has re
cently compl ted arrangements for producing it c.n a
more extensive scale, and at the same time adding to its
former excellence, by the resuit of a long practical ex
perience in its use.
The following vouchers are gentlemen well known,
and can be attested :
Savannah, August 3, 1858.
J. M. Haywood, Agent—Dear Sir: I cheerfully
comply with my promise, to g.ve you my opinion oi the
merits of your E-lm ot Savannah. Alter using it for
some two yerrs, Ira prepared to .speak from experience,
and do not hesitate to pronounce it the best prepara
tion for the hair that I have ever used. For several
years I had suffered from dandruff, which, at times, es
pecia ly during bad health, threatened to destroy my
hair I tried many remedies, which had been recom
mended tome, without benefit, until I made a triql of
your Balm, which not only removed the dandruff, but
kept my head free from it. at tbe name time st.mulating
the growth of the hair and imparting to it a heal! by ap
I have recommended it to tr y friends simi
iariy afflicted, who, in every ins'an ce, ex: eritneed sicii
for b nefit3 from its use. I esteem it a plea a.t ano
convenient article for dress ng the hair, possessing most
la the virtues claimed for the popular cosmetics of the
day, with none of their deleterious quant es I feel con
fident that it only needs to be known to the public to
become universally popular.
Very respectfully yours,
W. T Thompson,
Editor of Savanuah Morning News.
To ALL WHOM JT MAY CONCERN :
The object of this is to state that I have, for some
months, used Mr. Haywood’s Hair Tonic—known as
the Balm of -avanna —r. • have found it incomparably
superior to any other artic eof the kind. Its ute twice
a week is quite sufficient, not only to disengage the
danoruff, Ac , from the ba.r, but to prevent its formation
in any applicable quantity. It maintains tbe b>ir too,
in that moist an.: pleasant condition, which so many
other specifics pretend to do, but almost always fail—in
so far as my experience goes. J. L. Locke,
Late Editor of the Savannah Repubdcan.
May 26, 1858.
Mr. J. M Haywood, Agent ’• It gives me pleasure to
certify to the uaequaJed qualities of your Balm of Sa
vannah. It is the best tonic for the hair, as well as the
most effectual exterminator of dandruff I have ever tried.
My hair has been inclined t - fall out sirce my attack of
Yellow Fever in 1854, and among all the preventives 1
have tried, the Balm of Savannah has been the most
successful. This much I say most cheerfully.
