COLTJM B IT S: Friday Morning, Sot. 1| 18S8. LARGEST CITY CIRC CITATION. The report of the Liverpool Chamber of Com merce, iu relation to the packing of Cotton, will be found in another column. Vote of Alabama, Tko Montgomery Advertiser of yesterday morning, gives the official vote of Alabama.— Buchanan's majority is 18,189. ——■ —♦ ■ • ■ ■ To Correnpomleuts. We most respectfully desire that all commu nications intended for the Daily Sun be writ ten with pen and ink, and not with a pencil.— We cannot avoid errors when the pencil wri ting is so easily defaced or obliterated. And then too, only write on one side of the paper. The Weather. A drizzling rain commenced about twelve o’clock on Wednesday night, and continued all the day yesterday, and up to the time of going to press, the clouds looked darkly lower ing and auspicious of a bountiful supply of rain. We beseech the clerk of the weather to send enough of “dampness” to put and keep our river in a navigable condition for the resi due of the business season. To Our City Subscribers. We will be under obligations to city subscri bers to the Sun, if they will promptly report any failures or dclinquences on the part of our carriers in furnishing them with their papers. The list of our carriers in the city being large, it is possible, that some person may be neglected, and as we desire to please all, we shull find a proper remedy, if we are notified of the short comings of our carriers. American Nomination—A Tie. The nomination between Messrs. Hughes & Mahaffey for City Marshal, which was held at the “Sunny South” liar Hoorn yesterday evening resulted in a tie—each candidate re ceiving 118 votes. We are informed the candidates have agreed to try it over again at the same place on Sat urday evening next. Polls open from 4to 8 o’clock. Steamer Cusacta. This steamer, commanded by Captain Stub blefield, left Apalachicola, on the 13th instant, heavily freighted with merchandise for this place, and made good her way to Gilmore Shoals, where she now awaits a rise in the ri ver to enable her to reach our port. We have been sorely exercised by not receiv ing that barrel of Oysters shipped to us by our old friend, J. L. Wyman, of the Apalachicola Advertiser. Wo hope someone has enjoyed those bivalves, although a low river denied us the pleasure of partaking of them. Friend Wyman must have deserted bis post at “the pump,” or else we would have received the shipment. Our disappointment is so great that wo hardly know whether to excuse him or not! Whenever “that pump” becomes in working order, we “shall have no serious ob jections if” that invoice is promptly duplica ted T No tlx Verrons. Betting on Elections We porceivo by the Presentments of the Grand Jury of Richmond county, Georgia, that election wagers are included in the various evils presented by the Inquest, and they rec ommend that the General Assembly of Georgia make such stringent enactments as will effec tually prevent that species of gambling. The Buckites, now that they have won all the boots, bats, clothing, money, etc., that the Know Nothings could ante up, have no objec tions for the law to suppress betting on spavined presidential racers, to go, with full force and virtue, into immediate effect, for at least the term of four years! For the sorrow wo feel for the misfortunes of our friends of the Enquirer and Montgomery Mail, we most sincerely wish that it had have become a statute some twelve moons ago. Bank of Hamburg* We were shown yesterday, a counterfeit Fifty Dollar Bill, on the Bank of Hamburg, S. ('. It was dated Nov. 1851—No. 510. Letter A. We were also preseut when it was examined by a competent judge, who pronounced the bill spurious. On the genuine bill of this bank, there is not to bo found on the left end of tlie note the word “Fifty ” as it is on the counterfeit. Prom the general appearance of it, the bill lias passed through many hands, and it was well calculated to deceive thoso not fully posted in the art of detection. The bill, wc understand, was sent from ouo of the lower counties of Alabama, to this city. Thf Brig F. xcel. This vessel which sailed some time since from New York for Savannah, from violent weather became unseaworthy and bud to put into Philadelphia for repairs. A large portion of her cargo was for this city, and from a letter from the Central Hail Hoad Agent at Savaunah, requesting a copy of invoice from a merchant here, who had mer chandize on the Brig, wo infer her cargo is badly damaged. Wc trust our merchants had a full insurance on their goods. Shot by Accident. We find in the Wilmington (N. C.) Journal that a most painful accident bofel Mr. Wtu. Montague, aged eighteen or nineteen years, and son of Mr. Putriek Montague, of Long Creek, New Hanover county, on the 13th inst. Being in a boat in the crook, he shot a robin which fell ii& sort of a lagoon, and after he had reloaded his gun with duck shot, he pro ceeded to wade to got his bird, and while wad ing the lagoon or swamp, his foot slipped and the breech of his gun, which he had placed on the log to steady himself, slipped until the cock struck the log and the contents of both barrels lodged in bis left side. From the proximity of the muzzle of the gun to his breast, the wound was a terrible one. There nre but lit tle hopes entertained of his recovery. From the many accidents occurring from the careless use of fire arms, too much care and precau tion cannot be obaerved and exercised. Another Insurrection Defeated. Mr. Graves, Postmaster at Jiallettsviile, La vaca county, Texas, writes to. the Galveston Civilian, of the 9th iustaat, stating that a plot had been discovered of an intended rising iu tiiat neighlKirhood, on the 31 st of October. The citizens immediately met together at the resi dence of Mr. J. E. Martin, and examined his negroes and some others. They learned that Mr. Davidson and two other men were at the head of the insurrection; that the place of rendezvous was a point called Pecan Mott, on the dividing ridge between Hallettsvillo and the Gaudalupe; and that the negroes on the Guadalupe would meet them there. They were to visit the residences of their masters, kill them, and take all the arms and ammuni tion they could get, and fight their way to Mexico. Davidson has been arrested, and has made a confession implicating a man nam ed Mobley. Cotton Packing. The following statement on behalf of tho Liverpool Americau Chamber of Commerce and the Cotton Brokers’Association, respecting the evils arising from the false packing of cotton, appears in the Liverpool Times of ihe 29th October: Liverpool, Oct. 23. To the Chamber of Commerce of New Orleans, Mobile, Charleston and Savannah, and to all concerned in tho cotton trade of the United States; “The magnitude and importance of the com merce of Great Britain with the United States in the article of cotton, is sufficiently known, and to those who are acquainted with the de tails of the trade it is a matter of satisfaction that the machinery by which the distribution of so enormous a quantity of material is effec ted has, up to this time, worked so smoothly, owing to the honorable character of all con cerned, from the planter to the manufacturer. But in order to sustain the character of the trade, and to retain the mutual confidence which has hitherto existed, it is essential that every sample of cotton offered in the market should fairly represent the quality of the bulk from which it is taken, us every deviation from this rulo tends to create a distrust. Os late, however, so many instances of care less packing have occurred, causing a discrep ancy between the sample and the bulk, that serious loss has been sustained, both by the manufacturer and the merchant, and it has become a duty to call the attention, not only of the American planters and factors, whose reputation is thereby injured, but also of the trade generally, to the preseut growing in crease in the proportion of irregular and falso packed bales, and to invite their serious con sideration of the evils which must inevitably follow the continuance of the practice, and to solicit their assistance in checking it. Inmost cases, the irregular packing is only discovered when the bale has reached its ulti mate destination and is opened by the manu facturer, and the trouble, cost and inconveni ence of re-packing and returning the bale, and the trouble and difficulties which attend a pro secution of his claim have frequently induced him to bear the loss in silence. Similar rea sons have prevailed with the merchant to suf fer the loss resulting from such cotton, return ed by the manufacturer, rather than resort to the tedious and often useless process of seeking redress against the planter abroad. It is on this account that so few instances have occurred iu which the real offender has borne the consequences of his neglect, and, presuming on this forbearance, the evil com plained of has, from carelessness or otherwise, increased to sucli an extent that, in a large proportion of shipments arriving iu Liverpool, instances of fulse or irregular packing are dis covered, and occasionally whole parcels, con sisting of 20, 50 and even 100 lbs. are found mixed in the bale and sometimes plated: in other words the outer layer, from which the sample is taken, is more or less superior iu quality to the interior of the bale. It is hopeil that all parties will see the ur gent necessity of promptly co-operating to stop and remove this serious and increasing evil, which will otherwise disorganize the trade, and destroy that mutual trust and confidence with out which such an extensive and important branch of commerce cannot be carried on. THOMAS SELLAR, I’rcs. Amer. Chamber of Com. THOMAS lIAIGII, l’res. Cotton Brokers’ Ass’n.” New Territorial Application. Auother Territory, we learn, is about to be organized by a portion of its inhabitants. On the Ist of September, an election was held at various points in the Gadsden Purchase for del egates to tho Territorial Legislature of New Mexico, and a delegate to Congress. The lat ter, it is expected, will present to Congress a petition for the seperationof the Gadsden Pur chase from the northern part of New Mexico, and the erection of an independent Territorial Government. To this post, Mr. It. P. Cook was chosen. How much of New Mexico they desire to have included with the new Territory, we are not informed; but the advocates of the separation says that the country is naturally divided, by that intervention of deserts and mountains, into two States or government ju - risdictions. The Gadsden Purchase, or Arri zonia, as tho residents sometimes style it, con tains a total population of perhaps a thousand persons, of which one-half are Indians, and a third Mexicans of a very low class. The rest nro Americans and Germans. The principal village is Tucson (Tooksone), which aspires to be the capital of the new State. There is a fort iu the vicinity of the place, with a small garrison of United States troops. Firo in Augusta- A fire occurred yesterday, about eleven o'clock a. m., in a stable on the North side of Ellis street, in the rear of the United States Hotel. A horse, carriage and someone or two other vehicles, provender, Ac., with the stable, were burnt up. The origin of the fire is unknown, but supposed to be result of care lessness. The property belonged to Mrs. W. W. Montgomery. If it had not boen for the timely service ren dered by C. A. l’latt & Co.’s steam engine, to which is attached long hose, the damage would doubtless have been very groat. On many oc casions, l’latt’s engine has, in a similar way, rendered invaluable service to our community; and regret that there are not many more such engines in the hands of equally enterprising citizens among us.— Constitutionalist , 19 th. Beautiftil Marble. We noticed, among the many beautiful spe cimens of the natural productions of Alubaum, exhibited at our late Stnte Fair, one of the handsomest articles of white marble we have seen. It was taken from the Quarry of Dr. Edward Gantt, of Syllacoga, in Talladega county. This geutleman, we are informed, is engaged extensively in the manufacture of marble, and we would recommend those who desire to purchase, to examine the speci men, and give him a call.— Montr/omen/ Jour nal. Missouri. Returns, full aud partial, have been received from twenty-seven counties in this State, which foot up: Fillmore 15,256 Buchanan 13,128 Fillmore’s majority 2,128 This includes Linn county, which gives Bu chanan a majority of 17—a Democratic loss; Lafayette, (partial) which gives Fillmore a ma jority of 522; and Halls, which gives a major ity of 137 for Fillmore. These twenty-seven counties, in August last, gave for Governor : Ewing 18,400 , Polk and Benton 20,030.’ This shows that Buchanan docs not receive the united vote of Benton and Polk, but that Fillmore gets the largest share of the voto cast for Benton.— Louisville Cou rier. , Luxurious Rnil Road Cars, The Detroit Advertiser says the cars on the Illinois Central Railroad, for comfort and con venience, excel those of any other road iu the West. One of them contains six sthte rooms, cacli room having two seats with cushioned back, long enough for a person to lie upon.— The backs of the seats are hung with hinges at the upper edge, so that they may be turned up at pleasure, thus forming two single berths, one over the other, where persons may sleep with all the comfort imaginable. In one end of the car is a small wash room, with marble wash bowls, looking glassos, etc. On the op posite side of the car from the state room is a row of seats with revolving backs, similar to barber’s chairs, so arranged that the occupant may sit straight or recline in any easy attitude at pleasure. The other five cars have each two or three similar state rooms. Widows. We think it is “Sam Slick” (Judge llalibur ton, of Nova Scotia) who draws this rnpid sketch of Widows. He is almost a successful rival of the Senior Weller: “Widows are the very mischief. There’s nothing like ’em. If they make up their minds to marry, it’s done. I knew one that was terribly afraid of thunder and lightning; and every time a storm came on she would run into Mr. Smith’s house (Smith was awidower), aud clasp.her little bonds, aud fly around like a hen with her head cut off, till the man was half distracted for fear she would be killed; and the consequence was, she was Mrs. John Smith before three thunder storms rattled over her beau. How many they had arter that, I don’t eazackiey know myself!” Personal Difficulty. The Greensborough Times understands that an altercation took place on Monday in tlic streets of Raleigh, between Hon. Kenneth Ray nerand Mr. Holden of the Standard. It seems that Mr. Rayner, pending the Presidential election made a speech in Philadelphia, and that Mr. Holden had made some very strong restrictions upon his remarks. It was sup posed that Mr. Rayner was armed, but he showed no weapons, except his cane, with which he struck Mr. Holden several blows.— By the intervention of mutual friends, the parties were finally induced to separate. — They were afterwards bound over to keep the peace in a sum of $ 1,000. Judge Douglas’ Marriage. A Washington correspondent of the New York Herald, says: Judge Douglas is expected here about the middle of next week. Shortly after his arrival —I believe the day is not yet fixed —he is to be united to the very embodiment of youth, beauty and accomplishment; indeed, she has been considered the belle’ of the city for some , time. Miss. Coutts, for that is her name, is from one of the oldest families in Virginia.— The knot is to be tied iu this city, iu the holy Catholic church—for she is a Catholic—and the highest dignitaries of the land will assist at the gala. Important Decision. The Secretary of the Interior has reversed the decision of the late Commissioner of Pen sions in regardto what constitutes a warrant en titling soldiers to bounty land. The decision of tho Secretary will entitle regulars and others who have been eugaged in any of the conflicts with the Indians ou the Pacific, New Mexico, and on the plains, to warrants under the recent acts of Congress. The Secretary takes the ground that Congress in ten'led to provide for all cases where the circumstances actually con stituted what might, with propriety, be styled war, in which life was imminently imperilled. Old Buck Taking a Wife. It is rumored that Mr. Buchanan does not intend to undertake the occupancy of the White House alone. He feels the necessity of a help meet, and is said to have made arrangements for a joint tenancy with an accomplished Sou thern widow who has already had the advan tage of four year’s experience in that position. Death from Coal Gas. A man named George McDonald, captain of a canal boat, and his boy, aged twelve years, named Kdward Porter, were suffocated to death on Friday last, at Lambertvillc, N. J., by gas fruu burning coal. Ou retiring for the night they placed the stove near tho door of the cabin, and secured the latches and doors above so tightly us to exclude ventilation. In the morning the boy was found dead, and the man insensible, and continued so until Sunday eve ning, when he died. The jury of inquest ren dered a verdict of death by suffocation. Another Step Forward. The passenger trains on the Memphis and Charleston Rail Road now extend their trips to Corinth, the junction with the MobileandOhio Railroad. Tiius the road progresses steadily forward, auk every month lessens tho extent cf the gap betweeu the western and eastern divisions of the road. Tho track laying will be pushed forward from both ends with all en ergy, and tho connection through will, in all probability, be completed by March, according to the Memphis Bulletin. “Feed My Lambs.” There was point iu the quaint remark of a plain farmer to a somewhat transcendental preacher, “Take care, sir. you do not put the hay so high in the rack the lambs can not reaeh it.” - —— Verdict of a Negro Inquest. “We, do uuderscribed darkies, boin’ a Ivru ners Juray ob disgust, to sit on the body ob ile liiggar Sambo, now dead and gone before us. bad been sttin’onde said nigger aforesaid did on de night ob de fusteenth ol’ Juvember, onme to his deaf by failin’ from de said fiber, vrhar we find he was subsequently drowned, and afterwards was washed on de iber side, whar we spose lie froze to del'” Hog Packing.

Queen Victoria.is reported to be in an inter esting condition. The report that the Bunk of East Tennessee had suspended turns out to be untrue. The table service, lamps, and out-fit of the staterooms affine of the new Collins steamer Adriatic, cost $25,090. E. Z. C. Ju,dsou, (Ned Buntline) is about to resume the publication of “ Ilia Own” in New York. N Mrs. Julia Dean Ilayne i again playing in San Francisco—the new baby having gut a fair start in the world. The Baltimore American says there were seventy-eight men wounded in the riot in that city on Tuesday, the 4th inst., of whom four teen w ill die. A Warm discussion is going on between the lierald and Uommecial Advertiser, of Montre al, respecting the annexation of Canada to the United States. The New York Mirror contradicts the report published in its columns of the sale by Edwin Forrest ol his “Forthiil Estate” to Bishop Hughes, lor a nunnery. The loss of life from snake bites in Sciuue, India, has become so serious the Government has taken measures for the destruction ot these reptiles. The Yallabusha (Miss.) .Sentinel says there is at present a larger emigration among the citizens of that county to the States of Arkan sas and Texas than ever was before known. President Walker, of Nicaragua, has ap pointed Fermiu Ferrer tho new Minister from that Government to the United States. This gentleman is a native ot Nicaragua. A Greytowu correspondent ot the Paris Con stitutionnei deimunccs Air. Soule's purchase in Niouiugua us a mere gift from Walker—it is worth at least S2UO,UUU, whereas Mr. Suuie only gave <550,000 for it. The Petersburg Democrat iearns that ffi is more than probable that the Governor of Vir ginia will call an extra session of iho Legisla ture this winter. The meeting, it says, will be tailed before the Ist of January. It was said ol a lady who had just completed her fourth decade, aud who played very mildly ou her piano, while she never aiiuueu to lie-r age except in a whisper, that she was forte up on her piano, but piano upuu her forty. From an editorial in the Central Presbyteri an, we learn that there are now thirty-five Presbyterian churches iu Virginia wiUiout pas tors, aud a considerable nurnuer oi them witn large and influential congregations, able and anxious to procure the services of ministers. An old lady of Pennsylvania had and unac countable aversion to rye, and never ale it in any form. # “Till of late,” she said, “they have got to making it into whiskey, and i nud that i can now aud then worry down a little. Aiuuug the “election incidents” was one of an attempt to collect a debt, which shows some ingenuity. A gentleman had a demand against ’’another, which he was unable to collect.— ixutWiug him to be an ardent politician, he got another person to induce min to bet oil the resuit of the election, offering such a bet that was quickly taken. The money was placed in the hands of another citizen ; and the creditor sent an officer and secured the money by a trustee process. Washington Loved His Mother. Immediately after the organization of the present government, Washington repaired to Fredericksburg, to pay his humble duty to his mother, preparatory to his departure to New York. An affecting scene ensued. The son feelingly remarked the ravages tottering dis ease had made upon the aged frame of his mother, and thus addressed her : “The people, madam, have beeu pleased with the most flattering unanimity, to elect me to the chief magistracy of the United States, but before I can assume the functions of that office, I have come to bid you an affectionate farewell. So soon as the publie business, which must necessarily be encountered iu ar ranging anew government, can bu disposed of, I shall hasten to Virginia and”—Hero the mother interrupted him. “You will soe me no more. My great age, aud the disease that is fast approaching my vitals, warn me that I shall not be long iu this world. I trust iu God, 1 am somewhat prepared for a better.— But. go, George, fulfill the high destinies which heaven appears to assign you ; go, my soil, and may that heaven’s and your mother's blegs ing be with you always.” The President was deeply affected. His head rested upon the shoulder of his parent, whose aged arm feebly, yet fondly encircled his neck. The brow, ou which fame had wreathed tho purest laurel virtue ever gave to created man relaxed from its lofty hearing. That look which could have awed a Roman Senator in its Fabrican day, was bent in filial tenderness upon the time worm features of this venerable matron. The great man wept. A thousand recollec tions crowded . upon his mind, as memory, tracing scenes long past, carried him back to his paternal mansion, and the days of youth ; and there the center of attraction was his mo ther, whose care, instruction and discipline 4 hud prepared him to reach the topmost of lauda ble ambition ; yet how were his glories forgot ten while be gazed upou her from whom wast ed by time and malady, he must soon part to meet no mure. The matron’s predictions were true. The disease which had so long preyed upon her frame, completed its triumph, aud she expired at the ago of eighty-five, confiding in the promise of iunuotaiity to the humble believer. Remember his story, little children. Wash ington, you know, was a great man. AVo shall never expect to soe any little boy become a great man who does not love his mother. Legal Ignorance. An European correspondent ol’ the New York Tribune writes: “An authentic anecdote about Francis Joseph is so characteristic of that Emperor that I cannot withhold it from your readers. At the late flying interview be tween the King of Prussia and Emperor of Aus tria, at Topilitz, in Bohemia, Frederick AVil liam introduce Baron lliinboldt to Francis Jo seph. The Emperor upon this asked the King who Baron Humboldt was, since he had never heard his name before. The King of Prussia was quite astonished at such a display of im perial ignorance, and emphatically replied, •lie is the greatest man since the deluge.’” ♦ - - Married, by the Rev.

To thoso who are not aware that each parti cular hair on the head is a hollow tube, through which the fluids circulate which con vey nourishment, and impart its peculiar shade of color, it seems incomprehensible how resto ratives can produce a renovating influence. While preparations of this nature were entrus ted to quacks, and ignorant manufacturers of perfumes and cosmetics, much and irreparable mischief was inflicted on many a credulous and deluded sufferer. But when scientific men like Professor Wood, bring the lights of physiology and chemistry to bear upon tl><- treatment of such specialities, the result is the complete success which the certificates of thou sands relieved sufferers hear testimony to.
