We hope the cotton planters of this state, and our readers in the south and south west, will not feel we are wearying them with tho repetition of a thrice told tale, when we again admonish them of the im portance of a home market. We are rea dy, however, to hazard incurring even this unpleasant imputation, for the purpose of impressing on them a regard to what is do ing in other parts of the world towards sup plying foreign markets with their great sta ple- East-India cotton is now most formi dably competing with American in Eng land. The recent accounts show an im mense increase of importation thence into Liverpool, notwithstanding the demand of other and more accessible markets in Chi na. Besides, there are Texas and Jamaica almost as near to Great-Britain as wc are, and Egypt and Brazil not a great way far ther off in these days—all of which are growing cotton and devoting great attention, time and labor to its cultivation and im provements. Does any American doubt that a British Ministry will at any time dis criminate against United States, and in fa vor of either of these countries as soon as it can supply the British market ? What, then, is the part of wisdom with the cotton planters of this country ? Clear ly, to contribute, as far as in them lies, to the establishment, on stable and permanent grounds, of a great Manufacturing System at home. Nashville Whig. Poultry. —lt is scarcely credible how valuable is the poultry in the United States. B ‘the census of 1840, it was returned at ■512,176 70. New York contributes $2,- which is more than the value of lie, half tile value of its sheep, the value ofits neat cattle, and five times in; e than tho value of ail the horses and n 14!os of the State. These facts are deriv. ‘d from a publication of the Harpers, call ed ! ii - American Poultry Book.” MISCELLANEOUS. TAKING THE VEIL. The imposing ceremony of taking the white veil was yesterday performed at the Carmelite Nunnery on Aisquith street, in chapel attached to the institution, which witnessed by a large concourse of •’ tutors. The candidate for the veil, iss Courtney, of Charles cotirdv, Mary land, attended by Miss Ellen Louisa Jen kins, of this city, in the capacity of brides maid entered the chapel about 9 o’clock, b dressed in pure white, with embroi dered veils thrown loosely over their heads, ■:; kmg th :r -seats directly in front of the al t-\ am-tiig th-i audience. The sacrament 1 -;h lass was then performed by the 11 , ir. Glidea, and also administered to t’ Hep! cant for holy orders. The Rev •rneit Archbishop Eccleston now entered, arrayed in tin pontificals of his station, when tho curtains behind the grating of the cloisters were drawn, and about twenty sisters all dressed in white with heavy black veils thrown over their heads and shoulders, each bearing in her hand a ligh ted taper, were perceived walking two and two towards the door leading in the chapel. The candidate for the veil was then re ceived by the reverend mother, a lighted taper wreathed with flowers placed in her hand, and conducted within the precincts of the nunnery, the sisters with their lighted ram rs following, which was visible to the i.udienco through the gratings. The Arch bishop then read a passage of scripture, pro claiming the reward of those who forsake the world and all the ties of kindred to fol low Christ, as the authority of the Church for the dedication which was about to be performed, and delivered an eloquent ad dress, directed principally to the young no vitate. She then approached the railings, and the Archbishop questioned her as fol lowers:—‘My child, what do you demand?’ : > which she answered, “The mercy of God, md the holy habit of religion?” Q. “Is it of your own free will that you demand the holy habit of religion ?” A. “Yes, it is ” Q. “My child have you a firm inten tion to persevere in religion to the end of your life, and do you hope to have suffi cient strength to carry constantly the sweet yoke of our Lord Jesus Christ solely for the iove and fear of God, “ I hope to be able so to do.” I he novice then arose, and retired, con ducted by the superioress and assistants, to put off her secular dress, and returned in a few moments arrayed in the religious habit of the order. She then knelt down, and her secular veil being removed by the assistants, she was girded with a cincture by the superioress, and received the veil of the church, previously prostrating herself before the altar. She was then raised and saluted by the superioress, after which she saluted all the sisters present, when they retired in the precise order in which thev had entered, chanting the same low and solemn hymn which had been heard throughout the greater part of the ceremo ny. Iho extreme beauty of the novice, the solemnity of the ceremony, and her firm and unfaltering carriage and manner, rendered the scene of unusual interest. Baltimore Sun. The following anecdote exhibiting a spe cimen of sharp practice in a lawyer, illus. trates forcibly the advanlage of employing a member of the profession who is wide a wake: Some weeks ago a sailor was arrested by the United States authorities on a charge of larceny at sea, and as usual when the next a i Grand Jury was cmpannelled, this case came before them. That body had one witness under examination, and while thus engaged tho officer in attendance upon them left his post for a single moment.— During his absence another witness was called for, and the lawyer engaged by the culprit, who was close at hand witli his cli ent, opened the door of the Grand Jury room and pushed him in, as the witness whose ex amination had just concluded passed out, said with imperturable gravity, “ This is the next witness, gentlemen.” With such testimony the (2 rand Jury of course ignored the bill, much to the astonishment of the complaining party, for it was a gross and palpable case of larceny ; but his astonish ment was increased when he found himself sued for false imprisonment. The trial pameon in the Court of Common Pleas, and then the mystery which enshrouded the proceedings of the Grand Jury was unrav el led amid the uproarious laughter of the bench, bar, jury, and audience. The plain tiff lost his suit, hut he had the satisfaction of putting his captain to a round sum of ex pense in costs, instead of going, as he richly deserved, to Blackwell’s Island for theft. N. Y.

I continue the WARE-HOUSE AND COMMISSION BUSINESS at my old stand, known as the VU,r- ! ter-proof Warehouse. Detached as it is from oth- j er buildings, its location renders it nearly as se cure from tire, as if it was tire-proof The floors { have been elevated above the high water mark of the great freshet of May, 1840. Planters will thus be secured from the possi bility of loss and damage by freshets, j I avail myself of the present, occasion, to re j turn my thanks to my friends and patrons, for their liberal support during the past season. I solicit from them and the public generally, a con tinuance of this confidence, and assure them that in return for their patronage, I will use my best personal efforts to promote and protect their in terests, committed to my charge. In addition to this assurance, 1 pledge myself that I will in no case purchase a bale of cotton, directly or indi rectly. I will attend personally to the sale and forwarding of cotton to Savannah or Charleston; also, to the sale of Bacon, Flour, &c. &c., and to tho receiving and forwarding of goods to the up country. Having a fine wharf attached to my Warehouse, no wharfage will be charged on Cotton consigned to my care, either for sale or to tie forwarded to Savannah or Charleston. My commissions for selling cotton, will be 25 cents per bale, and 12. j cents for forwarding. I will also attend to the buying of goods per order. Very respectfullv, yours, &c. G. WALKER.

TOMI KINS, M-Vfjy Extract of a letter, from a highly respectable Planter, in the State of Louisiana, and resi dent in New-Orleans, under date, September 28, 1841. There was several Bilious attacks on my plan tation last summer, and I never knew an instance in which your Pilis did not answer every pur pose, when given in the first commencement of the disease ; and there lias also been six or sev en different cases ol Chills and Fever, and your Pills have cured every case without the slight est disposition to a return of the Chills; and I think your Pills the best remedy for the com plaints they are recommended to cure than any medicine I have ever used. Every family should always have these Pills on hand. 1 have no doubt that your Pills have saved me $l5O Doc tor bills this season. My overseer had a daughter who had the Dropsy, and she has experienced great, relief from the use of one box of the Pilis. I also gave one box to my brother-in-law, who had taken al most every tiling for Dyspepsia, and they have so far relieved him that he thinks one box more would cure him entirely ; he says they are tho ueet Pills to cleanse the blood that be knows of. Yours, very respectfully, T. H. ANSON. Iff Price 25 cents per box, with full Direc tions, for sale by M. P. Callaway & Cos. Wash ington ; Messrs. A. Swift & co. Fiber ton ; YVm. If.
