L4HOBIT CITY CIKCCL.AXIOM.
TsttiUy Morning) lept* 8* 1857.
We notice in some of our exchanges
that tho bills of the Bauk of West Ten
nessee are discredited at Memphis, and j
also that the Agricultural Bunk of Ten- I
nessee, at Brownsville, had failed.
Dead. -
Mr. Samuel Hendricks, the well known
and gentletnanly advertising agent for
Eldred’e Circus, died at Harrisburg, Pal,
on the 27th wit.
Apalachicola Cotton Statement.
From the annual statement of the Apa
lachicola cotton market, it appears that
the total receipts at that port for the
year ending on the Ist inst., were 80,341
bales, against 08,085 bales to the same
time last yenr, being a falling off of 10,344
bales. The exports for the samo period
were 77,805 bales, against 90,713 bales
to same time last year. The actual stock
on baud on the Ist was 24 bales, to which
add the 2,472 bales destroyed and the ex
cess of receipts over exports is accounted
for.
801 l Worms.
Tbo Dallas (Ala.) liazette of the 4tb
inst., says: “We have been informed by
several planters that the boll worms have
appeared, and are worse than they have
been since 1848. These destructive in
sects appearing at the close of a bad sea
son, pretty well finish the crop. We be
lieve there will be an early frost from the
signs of the weather; if so, the Dallas
planters will hardly pay expenses.”
The Wetumpku Dispatch has been told
that tho boll worm is doing considerable
injury to tho cotton of several of the
planters of that vicinity. Mr. I. N. Nor
ris picked 20 or 30 bolls at random, from
two or three plants, and found that every
one of them was completely destroyed.
Heavy Sugar House Failure.
A dispatch from Baltimore, of the 4th
inst., stutes that the extensivo sugar im
porting house of Withington & Eastman,
of that city, had failed lor a large amount.
Other heavy failures may be looked for
in a short time, in houses of like char
acter, for there has been heavy specula
tive operations in sugar of late, in antici
pation of further advances on the already
exorbitant prices. We would advise oiir
merchants to touch the article lightly
and buy ot ly enough to supply present
demands, for in addition to tho largo sup
plies on hand—the largest ever known—
tho crop of Louisiana promises to be
large, the price is obliged to come down
at least one-fourth during the present
season.
Col. B A. Lockridge.
Col. Lockridge, late of the Nicaraguan
nrmy, publish's ft card in the New Or
leans Delta, of the 2d inst., withdrawing
his connection from the enterprise ot
Americanizing Nicaragua. Tho Colonel
has tteeu one of the most active and devo
ted friends of the Nicaraguan cause, and
has spared neither himself nor his nidus
to further its interests. lie is now, how
ever, compelled, in order to attend to his
privnte affairs, to forego any active con
nection with the cause. But his whole
heart, he suys, is with it still.
Dud lieai- Vicksburg.
Wo learn from the New Orleans Delta
that a duel took place opposite Vicksburg
at 4 o’clock on Thursday evening, betw, en
8. 8. Calhoun and E. J. Bowers, both ot
Canton, Mississippi. Tho former was shot
through the left leg, just above the knee,
while tho latter e-eaped with a shot
through tho lej of his pantaloons. The
wenp.'n* wire rifles, and stance sixty yards,
and only one round tired. The duel orig

ed yesterday, on the steamer Fairchild,
from Memphis, and is putting up at the
City Hotel. Hescrmsin excellent health
after his tour of six weeks through the
South ; is much engrossed in correspon
dence ; and keeps his counsels and his
plans (very judiciously) locked in his own
bosom. Cols. Bruno and Rogers, and
other Nicaragua officers, are now in tho
city. General Walker, wo understand,
does not intend, for some time to come,
to leave the city.
The Atlantic Telegraph.
Captain Hudson, commanding tho U. 8.
steamer Niagara, in communicating to the
Navy Dcp irtmeut the particulars iu ro
gnrd to the accident to the telegraph ca
ble, says iie has every reason to believe,
from what has thus far beou experienced
in wire-laying, that, under ordinary cir
oumstauces of weather and with machine
ry adapted to the purpose—for such as
they had on board requires altering and ‘
improving—umy be laid iu safety on the J
track marked for it in the Atlantic Ocean.
He says that at the time the cable parted
tbe company’s chief eugineer, Charles T.
Bright, and his men were attending the
brakes to lessen the speed of the cable
until it was finally carried away, which
made all hands throughout the day like a
household or family which had lost their
dearest friends, for the officers and tuen
had become deeply interested in the suc
cess of the enterprise.
Executed.
Chesly Boatwright, convicted of the
murder of Evans, some time since, suf
fered the extreme penalty of the law at
Camden, S. C., in the jail yard, on Friday
last, a vcy large concourse of people
being present, lie was baptiied a few
days previous to his execution by Rev.
Thomas Davis, of the Episoopal Church,
and reoeived the sacrament on Thursday
night. He expressed himself ready and
willing to die, and after the drop fell he
scarcely moved a muscle. He warned
the cr..wd against drunkenness and bad
oompany, and attributed his present con
v> their influence.
Arrival of tk Worth Amarlea.
The steamship North America arrived
at Bt. John’s on the 6th inst., with advi
ces from Liverpool to the 26th ult., four
days later than the Vanderbilt’s news.
The Liverpool cotton market was ac
tive, and prices had advanced jjd. The
sales on Monday and Tuesday reached
31,000 bales.
Breadstuff's had declined, and buyers
are still demanding a further decline.
Sugar had advanced 6d,

Commercial failures are reported in
Liverpool.
The differences between tbe Turin and
Naples Parliament have been prorogued.
Fires In New Orleans.
A dispatch from New Orleans, on the
4th inst., Btate that two fires occurred in
that city on Friday morning, causing con
siderable destruction to property. The
first occurred on Magazine street, des
troying the house of Malony & Brothers
—loss about $40,000 ; the second fire was
in St. Charles street, and the loss about
$20,000. The first was mostly covered
by insurance, and the last insured for
about half the loss.
Official Vote of Missouri.
A dispatch from St. Louis states that
the result of the election for Governor of
Missouri, which was held in the early
part of last month, and upon which there
has been so much speculation caused by
the contradictory reports received, lias
at length been determined by the official
report—R. M. Stewart, Democrat, being
elected over James S. Rollins, Emanci
pationist, by three hundred and thirty
four majority. The official vote stands:
For Stewart 47,975
For Rollins 47,641
Stewart's majority 334
New York Money Panic.
The money panic, which was last week
kept within the precin its of Wall street,
ye-tenlay assumed the more threatening
phase of a bank excitement. The Bank
of the Mechanics’ Association closed its
doors at an oarly hour, or rather shut up
the inside shop, while the door on Wall
street was the sceuu of a large gathering
of dealers, bill-holders, and news mon
gers The concern failed on being dis
credited at the Clearing House. It bad
been previously robbed of about $70,000
and the affair is now undergoing a police
examination. The bill holders are secur
ed nt Albany by tbe usual pledge of New
York State Sticks. The event gave rho
to a great number of rumors about other
Bauks, from the Bank of Commerce with
its ten millions capital and new marble
building opposite the Post Office, in Nas
-at street, down to the Citizons', with
$400,000 capital, and its humble shop on
the corner of Canal street and the Bowe
ry. Our reporters found no one running,
in the sense spoken of, at any point. Tbe
Citizens, Nassau, Ocean, &c , stood cnlra,
and the chief concern nt the Commerce,
.Metropolitan and American Exchange ap
peared to be felt fully by tbe merchants
or tbeir confidentials to effect a small dis
count. There was an unusual stir through
Wall street, and a good many anxious fa
ces in tho crowd that thronged the side
walk. Messrs. Bebee &Cos , the Bullion
Brokers, stopped payment, aud several
mercantile failures were announced. But
beyond the unfortunate Association of
Mechanics, no Bank has bursted, and the
impression appeared to be at tho close
of the day, that no further trouble of this
exciting nature is to be apprehended.—

Serious Affray at Old Point.
Tho Richmond Dispatch says:
On Monday last the steamer Coffee,
chartered by the Mechanical Guards, of
Norfolk, Va., left that port on an excur
sion, and from the low price of tickets
took a number of rowdies along. Upon
arriving nt Old Point, a sentry on shore
declined taking the rope of the steamer,
for whioh he was badly beaten when the
rowdies got ashore. The steamer then
left. A short time after the Glen Cove,
chartered by the Juniors of Norfolk, ar
rived at Old Point, on an excursion to
the Cupes, and several of the passengers
stopped at the Point in uniform. A few
moments after, an officer with fifteen dra
goons from the fort, came on them, and
commenced slashing and cutting them.—
Mr. Wynne was severely out on the head,
! face and arms ; Mr. Nottington received
: a cut on the head, and Dr. Finch narrow
i ly escaped having his head split open.—
After this the officer arrested Mr. D. S.
Cherry, a well known citizen of Norfolk,
as having been ono of the parties con
nected with the assault on the sentry. A
friend explained who Mr. C. was, and he
was released. The Norfolk papers call
loudly for an investigation of this affair
by the proper authorities.
Texas “ Fun.”
The Palestine Advocate says that on
the 15th ult., about nine miles north-east
j of that place, Mr. Archibald Briggs killed
a Mr. Brown. The circumstances were
about ns follows: Brown induced tho
wife of Briggs to forsake her husband
and live with him. This arrangement
was made with the consent of all con
cerned, and the parties left. After the
expiration of two or three days. Brown
visited Briggs and informed him that
| “he could take his wife back, he was
tired of his bargain,” or words to that j
effect. This appears to have been a little !
too much for tbe sensitive nature of
Briggs, and we are told that he seized
his shot gun, remarking, “ Brown, you
have had your fun, now I’ll have mine,”
took deliberate aim at him and fired,
killing him almost instantly.
Declines.
A dispatch from Washington says that
Beverley Tucker has written a letter to
the President declining the Liverpool
Consulate. He assigns a number of rea
sons for this course ; among others, that
tbe pay is inadequate; that a gentleman
holding the position is expected to enter- I
tain every American who calls upon him;
that out of the salary he receives—which
is seven thousand dollars—three thou
sand dollars is requirsd for clerk hire,
leaving but little over four to live upon,

Fashions.
Paris, Aug. 6, 1857.
Our ar'jats in the millinery department’
have cr.iuparatito repose; tbe summer
toilette s are ail completed, and the autumn
fashions have not yet been displayed.—
The heat of our summers is generally over
t>v the 15th of this month ; and warmer
‘attire is necessary for the end of the
month. Taffetas, woollen fabrics, thicker
and richer silks replace the muslins, bare
ges, silk gauzes, &c. Beautiful costumes
have been devised by Madame Petit, 4
Place Vendome, for the early autumnal
temperature. Chine silks will be again
adopted both for walking and dinner
dress. Madame Petit fashions the full
dress chine with three flounces, on which
there is a wreath of chine flowers, woven
in silk, and forming a border to a band
composed of black and white squares.—
There are other robes in the same style,
but without flounces, and having side or
naments of a contrasting color. Plain
silks of anew description, will be much
worn, and the flounces will be replaced by
a double skirt, the upper one ornamented
at the sides, and decorated either with a
deep hem at tbe edges or with a rich
fringe. For evening costume, lace will
replace the fringe. The latest moire an
tique are sprinkled with detached bou
quets, on running wreaths on the watered
ground. Broad silk stripes are mixed
with small flowers on a plain ground.—
Fancy buttons, lace, and guipure are the
usual trimmiugs for robes as well as for
outer garments. The autumn modes are
as richly trimmed, and as heavily laden
with ornameuts as were the last winter’s
fashions.
We thought that the excessive luxury
displayed by our fine ladies would have
produced, ere this, a reaction, and that
simplicity in dress would again distin
guish tbe French woman of bon-ton ; but
everything indicates, on the contrary, for
the coming season, an unusual display
of extravagrnce. Jewels will form a part
of every toilette. Sarrazin, 19 Boulevard
St. Denit, displays a collection of buttons
and small ornaments for the decoration of
demi toilette, unrivaled in taste, richness
and elegance. There are enamelled clasps
that attach the velvet side ornaments to
the two edges of the silk skirt; tho same
jewels decorate the corsage and sleeves of
the robe. The buttons which fasten the
muslin under sleeves arc costly bijoux and
have become a necessary addition to a
well dressed woman’s attire. Tbe shawl
mantelet is the outer garment preferred
for the month of September, and black
silk the material generally employed.—
The shawl is surrounded by a double row
of ruches ; there is an interval of six
inches between the ruebes, which are very
full, and about tbe width of a No. 12 rib
bon ; at the back of tbe neck there is a
si all pointed hood trimmed with the
ruche, and finished with a black velvet
bow. Striped or checked fancy silk
“bawls are much worn. Plain, black silk
jackets, with the skirt reaching to the
knee, and without ornament, will be a
costume very frequently adopted this au
tumn ; this garment is styled a pardessus.
Grey silk dresses are trimmed with black
velvet bauds; sleeves are enormously wide
at the bottom, generally cut sqaare, and
open to the bend of the arm. Light
dresses have the sleeves formed of a puff
of tbe size of a short sleeve, from which
falls a deep flouuce, slightly gathered,
covering the elbow and forming a point; a
band is put between the puff and flounce.
Whito cauzous will continue to be worn as
a dinner toilette, during the cooler weath
er ; some are of the embroidered muslin,
others of lace or organdie. The following
is a youthful aud becoming pattern; it is
composed of plain muslin; around the
throat, there is a puffing with double
hemmed and fluted head. The lappets
are trimmed with the same puffings,
and the braces, before and behind, are
likewise puffings. The sleeves are straight,
with three puffings leugthwise or at the
edge of the sleeve, which is terminated
by a deeply hemmed frill; all these puf
fings have ribbons run through them.
For the autumn, taffetas silk will be
mixed with crape, tulTe or straw for bon
nets. White crape may be assorted with
lilac grot dt Naples; the sides oftbecrowu
are of silk. On the front there is a band
of silk, crossed by a narrow vunilyked
blonde, made into a ruche with a double
head; in the centre of the ruche is sewed
a small roll of silk. The curtain, of
crape, bordered with a bias lilac band,
two and a half inches wide, and crossed
by a blonde ruche. The inside of tbe
bonnet is decorated with small daisies and
dark violets ; outside of tbo bouuet, a bou
quet of three tulips and long grass.
Naval.
The Charleston navy yard, says the Bos
ton Courier, presents a very busy appear
ance at the present time—the strong ar
ray of vessels of-war at that station giv
ing employment to a large number of
workraeu. Tbe vessels in port are as fol
lows : ships of the-line, Ohio and Vermont
—the former a receiving ship and the lat
ter an ordinary ; first-class steam frigates,
Merrimac and Roanoke—the former fit
ting for the Pacific station and tbe latter
in dock undergoing repairs; the sloop of
war Cyane at anchor in the stream ; brig
Dolphin, dismantled, nad store-ship Re
lease, in the same condition.
The Portsmouth navy yard is also live
ly with the operations of workmen. The
large force which has been engaged upon
the ship-of-the line Frauklin have been
transferred to the frigate Constitution,
which has been successfully bauled up,
through the dry dock, on shore, and is
undergoing a thorough overhauling.
Most of the planking will be removed,
and tbe copper will be entirely taken off.
“Old Ironsides” has always ranked well
as a fast sailer, and is considered a hand
some model for a man-of-wxr, even at tbe
present day. But little remains of the
cherished old frame which has brought so
much honor to the United States navy.—
A few timbers and a piece of the keel of
tho old ship are all, besides the model,
which warraut tho name.
A few more repairs, and all but the
model will be goue ; but her name will he
cherished and preserved as long as the
achievements of her old commauders are
remembered. The sloop-of-war Vandalia
is lying under the shears to be remasted
and fitted out for sea. The frigate San
tee is awaiting further orders. The ehip
of-tbe-line Franklin will probably be
launched next scasou. Commandant Pick
ering, who has been a very gentlemanly
and popular officer at the yard for sever
al years, will leave for anew station in a
few weeks, and the yard will be put un
der the charge of Commandant Berrien.
Commandant Pope will be retainel for
several months longer nt Washington.
Praiseworthy Act.
The Abbeville Banner informs us that
Hon. J. F. Marshall, of that District, has,
at his own expense, erected a monument
over the grave of Lieut. F. W. Sellick, of
the Palmetto Regiment, who was the first
to plant the American oolora on the city
walls, after the battle of Gareude Helen

Another Rev. Kallocli.
The Nevf Jersey papers are showing up
the Rev. Win. B. Sutherland, of Trenton,
who is guilty of seducing the daughter
(only fifteen years of age) of a member of
his church. Sutherland made a pretext
to get the girl to his house in the ab
sence of bis wife, when he drew her into
a chamber aud there succeeded in over
coming fier. It is very remarkable that
as the youug victim of this man’s seduc
tions was leaving the house she encoun
tered Sutherland’s wife, who was just nt
that moment returning home after an ab
sence of some days. The wife noticed the
flushed and excited appearance of the
girl’s countenance, and asked'the cause,
why she had been crying, &c., to which
evasive answers were returned, nnd tbe
outraged child hastened home to the
house of her parents. On Thursday she
related to her mother the particulars of
the shame that had been practised on
her, aud the mother immediately waited
upon one of the deacons of Sutherland’s
church, and related the circumstances,
whereupon an investigation was entered
upon.
The father of the child, on learning the
story went in pursuit of Sutherland, but
he made his escape and has not since been
heard of.
This scandalous act of Sutherland is
not the first which has been laid at his
door during his ministry in Burlington.
On the 21st July, but little over a
month ago, a hired girl in his family
named Teresa Gilbert, about twenty-three
years of age, made oath before Alderman
Brown, of that city, that he had at
tempted to seduce her.
TUe Physical Powers of England.
The physical power which England de
rives from the transformation of the latent
power of its coal into active force is
scarcely conceivable by unscientific minds.
Professor Rogers of the United States
furnishes us with the following estimates:
Each acre of a coal seam, four feet in
thickness, nnd yielding one ynrd net of
pure fuel, is equivalent to about 6,000
tuns; nnd possesses, therefore, a reserve
of mechanical strength in its fuel equal
to the life-labor of more than 1,600 men.
Each square mile of one such single coal
bed, contains 3,000,000 of tuns of fuel;
equivalent to 1,000,000 of men laboring
through twenty years of their ripe
strength. Assuming, for calculation, that
10,000,000 of tuns, out of the present
annual products of the British coal mines,
namely 65,000,000, are applied to the
production of mechanical power, then
England annually summons to her aid an
army of 3,300,000 fresh men, pledged to
exert their fullest strength through 20
years. Her actual annual expenditure of
power, then, is represeuUd by 66,000,000
of able bodied laborers. The latent
strength resident in the whole coal pro
duct of tho kingdom may, by the same
process, be calculated at more than 400,-
000,000 of strong men, or more than
double the number of tbe adult males
now upon the globe.— Mechanic’s Mag.
A Fact Not Generally Known.
It is a curious fact, not generally
known, that, at the last “Great World’s
Fair” in London, wheat raised in Floyd
county, Georgia, took the second premi
um, among the vast number of samples
of this cereal from all quarters of the
globe.
The following are the facts of the case :
Wm. Wood, of this county, sold his crop
of wheat to some gentlemen in Southern
Georgia, and the purcaaser, struck with
the exceeding fine quality of the article,
sent several bushels of it to the “Great
Fair of all the World,” then soon to come
off at London. There the sample attract
ed very general attention, and secured
the second highest premium, since whioh
time the demand for Southern wheat, for
home consumption at the North, and for
general exportation, has been steadily
and rapidly increasing. Tbe large pro
portion of gluten contained in wheat
grown here, coupled with an early har
vesting, which enables the farmer to get |
his crop into market sooner by some
weeks than bis Northern competitors,
has caused the very large demand, of late
years, for our grain.— Rom* Southerner,

Facts cannot be questioned, wheu the peo
ple of any country bear testimony in mass, as in
I the case of Dr. J. Uostetter’b Stomach Hitters,
j Not only have we the individual evidence of the
land, but almost every paper iu tbe Union is com
menting upon tbe great benefit derived from the
use of these celebrated Bitters; besides various di
plomas awarded them, among which is one from
the Ohio Mechanic’s Institute, at their Thirteenth
Annual Exhibition, at Cincinnati, where the Com
mittee was composed chiefly of physicians in the
city. These ure weighty facts that cannot help
but convince the most credulous that it is at least
worthy of trial. For Dyspepsia in any form these

in this case, is no misnomer, we have the testimo
