COI.TTMBTTS: LARGEST CITV CIRCULATION. Monday Morning, Aug. 143, IHSH. Sco reading matter on every page. Kail Komis In Ohio. The report, of the Stale Commissioners of Ohio shows that there were two 2,834 miles of rail road completed in that State, at a cost of $25,000,000, upon which there is a debt, funded and refunded, of $66,000,000. The assessed valuation of the taxable property of Chicago, last spring, was about $30,000,000, while the amount re corded upon bonds and mortgages which it was pledged to secure, was over SIOO,- 000,000. Texas IT. S. Senator. The Tyler (Texas) Reporter of the 22d ult., says that Gov. Runnels lias appoint ed Col. Matt Ward, of Cass, a United States Senator, to till the vacancy occa sioned by the deulh of the lamented Henderson. - - -♦ Hank Lawi In lowa. According to the proclamation of the Governor of lowa, the official vote on I ho Bank Laws was as follows: “For State Bank Law, 41,688 : against 8,697. For General Ranking Law, 30,319; against 10,847. ♦ Fatal Accident. From our Tennessee exchanges, we learn that Miss Charlotte Ellis, daughter of Mr. Ellis, of the firm of Ellis & Ament, of Nashville, while riding on horseback, at Ron Aqua Springs, in Hickman coun ty, on the 13lh, was thrown and killed almost instantly. ———*■ The Horne Tamer. The Loudon Atbemuum says that the - publication of Mr. Rarey's pamphlet in England will not lose him a single pupil, as it is evident that his art may be more easily leArned from the living master than from any book of instructions. I'aluful Accident. The Clarksville (Tenu.) Jelfersonian learns that a young man named Henry Adams, residing near Woodlawn, in that county, accidently had his arm up to the elbow absolutely torn to shreds in a threshing machine on Monday evening week. Amputation was of course neces sary. Accidently Killed. The Selma Reporter of the 18th inst., regrets to learn that a Mr. Marcey, near Perryville, l’erry county, Ala., was ac cidentally killed a few days since by the falling of a cotton screw. He is repre sented as having been a very clover and industrious man. Mobile and Ohio Kail Hoad. A letter has been written by Judge Brown, President of the Mobile aud Ohio Rail Road, which expresses confi dence of his ability to procure all the iron needed for the rail road. He writes that tho payment of the English debt with the sterling bonds ut 75 cents, lias been arranged. The debt amounts to SBOO,OOO. Prospect of Cotton. From tho best information we have been able to gather, we have come to tlje coucluoiou lliat without some further dis aster, the yield of the growing crop will be a fair one, and may bo set down at fully 8,300,000 bales, it is truu we hear occasional complaints of rust. Wo do not believe, however, this disaster is to so considerable an extent in this section (though tho complaints hero are as heavy as elsewhere) as to seriously ntlect the average yield. Wo have come to this conclusion from several excursions into tho country recently. Most of the Cotton we saw is well boiled, aud continues to form and bloom. Tho exceptions to this were very few, aud those not of a serious character. Hon. U. C. Yancey. The Atlanta Intelligencer of tho 21st inst., says : “Our esteemed fellow towns man, the Hon. Uenjamiu C. Yancey, left this city ou Thursday night at 12 o’clock for New York, from whence ho and his excellent family will sail iu the course of next week for Soutli America, to repair to his post as Minister of tho Argentine Coufoderafiou, the capital of which is Santa Fe, about 200 miles up tlie river from Buenos Ayres. We hope the Colonel may enjoy the | time spent in connexion with tho ap pointment from our Government. That he will discharge laithfully tho duties of his station, is what all know who are nc quaintod with him. At tho close of his term of oifioe we shall gladly welcome him back to our city, to mingle aguin with us as in times past Laying • Corner Stone. The cercmouy of layiug the corner atone of the new St. Patrick’s Cathedral iu New Y’ork, was performed on Suuday by Archbisnop Hughes. One hundred and three persons—including two Prot estants—have responded to a circular of i the Archbishop sent to a limited number, subscribing SI,OOO each in cash, or in four quarterly payments, to the buildiug of the church. Contributions to a large amount were deposited on the foundation stone. The buildiug, it is estimated, will cost $1,000,000 aud iu point of siie and splendor will excel any ecclesiastical structure on this continent. It will not be so long as some of the Urge European cathedrals, hut it is broader than most of the French, and higher thau a majority of English cathedrals. The plan is a Latin cross 828 feet long, and 176 feet wide. The first church erected by the Catholics in that city, was the old St. Peter’s in Barclay street, seventy-five years ago. There are now twenty-eight Catholic churches in the city, seventy aix in the diocese aud tbe arch-diocese tiz hundred and thirty six churches, aud a Catholic population of 876,000. The Hog Cholera. The Petersburg (Ind.) Reporter says that in Pike county the hog cholera is prevailing with fatal effect. Many of the heavy and most extensive hog raisers will have to buy pork for their own use > the coming fall. Tho pork raisers of the West, like the cotton raisers of the South, have cried, ( “Wolf! wolf!” so often when there was no wolf, that “all the world and the bal ance of mankind” pay but little attention I to the unfavorable accounts which are circulated of the diseases prevalent among 1 the hogs, or disastrous to the cotton crop. Last yeur, we recollect distinctly that the cry in many portions of the West was that the hogs were dying by thousands with the cholera, and that the hog crop ; would be very short—not enough hardly for home consumption; whereas there were more hogs raised last year aud slaughtered than there had been for any j one of the previous ten years. It was the same way with the cotton crop. South- | ern planters were crying “short crop,” ! and, to hear some of them talk, one not j acquainted with the custom would have I i believed that not more than the fourth of a crop would be made. Well, the crop was short, it is true ; but nothing like as short ns somo endeavored to make it ap pear it would be. The result of so many false alarms is, that people are beginning i to pay no attention to such reports, and when the crops are renlly short, they do not command as good a price us they otherwise would, for nobody believes they are short until they have real, practical demonstration of the fact. That there may be cholera among the hogs of the West to u certain extent, wc do not pre tend to doubt, but that it exists to the extent indicated by the Reporter, we do not believe, nor will we believe until we have better evidence of the fact than mere newspaper reports. A Sensible Princes*. If one half the anecdotes which arc re lated of the new Princess Royal of Prussia be true, she is remarkably sensi ble for a princess, and Prince Frederick William lias got a very clever sort of a wife. We first find her setting the fash ’ ionable ladies a very excellent example by wearing thick boots, and now we find i her ordering her household with more seuse of propriety than we thought a young princess could exercise. To a will of her own she appears to add a great deal of the good sense and amiabil ity of her royal mother. The last anec dote we have seen of her highness, is tho following, related by a Berlin corres pondent, which, if it be true, displays as much sense as is usually exercised by American house-wives : The chambermaids, whose proper bus iness it is to clean the rooms, discharge the duties of their position in silk dresses. The daughter of the richest sovereign in the world decided to put. a stop to this extravagance. One fine morning she had all the female servants summoned to her presence, and delivered what may be considered a highly successful maiden speech. iSlio began by telling them the expense of their dresses must evidently exceed the rate of tlieir wages. She add ed that as their wages were not to be raised, it would be very fortunate for them if they were allowed to assume cot ton articles of clothing. “In ordey to prevent every misunderstanding,” the Princess continued, “1 shall not only per mit but order you to do so.” Cuba. llccent accounts represent the net rev enue of Cuba for the last year, after paying all the expenses, civil and milita ry, of tlie administration of the Govern ment, us amounting to fire million of dollars. This sum goes into the treasury of Spain, and is so much pecuniary profit from tlie possession of that island. While Cuba continues to yield such an income to hankvupt Spain, and at the same time | afford her so much profit from the slave trade, is it likely that she will part witli it for any trifling consideration ? She will no more think of it than did Eng ; land of parting with her beloved posses sion on this side of the Atlantic, until she was forecd to do so by the Colonists themselves. If Uncle Sum ever gets pos- I session of the “gem of the Antilles,” he j will have to do so by conquest, or by a ’ revolution of the Cubans themselves. As I neither otio of those is at all probable, j we may look upon any probability of the annexation of Cuba as exceedingly re mote. Our Government is too intensely Northern at this juncture to admit of any hope of a speedy annexation. Mortality ami Ilealtli of Memphis. Tho Memphis Appeal of the 17th inst., says: “There were sixteen deaths in this city last week—five less than tlie week before. The diseases were : Bili | ous fever, 1; spasms, 1; brain fever, 1; | marasmus, 1 ; congestive chills, 1 ; fever, 1 ; whooping cough, 1 ; iutlamatiou of the bowels, 1; ditto of stomach, 1; con sumption, 2 ; chronic diurahiva, 1 ; effects of heat, 1 ; accident, I—one drowned and ono killed by locomotive—diseases not reported, 1. Os the deceased, there were children under 6 years, 9; adults from 6to 50 years, 6 ; age unknown, 2. There ! wore males, 10; females, 8: sex not re- i I ported, 8. This table is a very gratify- [ ing proof of the very healthy condition of Memphis at tbe present time. With personal care and prudence, and a wise ami active municipal attention to the con- j dition of our streets, and to tho use of rational and efficient guards against the j introduction of contagious diseases, we ! may look with considerable confidence for a continuance of an average healthy season.” Lawrence, Stone dt Cos*. Lftabtll tiles. At a meeting of the creditors of Law- I rence. Stone & Cos., held on Wednesday | the 10th inst., additional claims against the concern were allowed, to the amount of $35,000, making tbe whole amount of their liabilities thus far allowed by tbe creditors $3,100,000. How much their i effects will pay towards this amount it is I not stated. ARRIVAL OF THE ARABIA. New York, Aug. 20.—The steamship Arabia has arrived. She brought no packages of newspapers. Her news has been anticipated from St. John’s. The Agamemnon (of the cable fleet) ar rived at Valencia on the sth August The shares in the Atlantic Telegraph Company rose immediately from £350 to j £BSO. t ■ A dispatch from Valencia, on the 6th, says that on the day the Niagara and 1 Agamemnon parted in mid-ocean the electric communication by the cable was lost for an hour and a half. The Aga memnon stopped and the injury was re paired. On Friday she encountered a gale, which lasted three days. All hopes for the success of the expedition was lost; but on Wednesday the storm mode- J rated, shallow water was reached, and ; she anchored safely. Dates from Havre are toAugust 6th.— ! Cotton was buoyaut, and was quoted at 102 fruncs. Return of Minister Foray til. Washington. Aug. 20.—1 tis announc ed that Mr. Forsyth will return from Mexico in the sloop of war Plymouth. The Otlicer* of tbe Niagara. Washington, Aug. 20.—The officers of the steam frigate Niagara (recently em ployed in laying the Atlantic cable) have been allowed leave of absence for three months. Yellw Fever. Charleston, Aug. 20.—Capt. Joseph Hamilton, of New Vork, for many years a shipmaster at this port, died to day of yellow fever. The Bank lteturib. The returns for July indicate a steady contraction of “bills in circulation.”— Tbe decrease since May has reached near a million of dollars, and the present vol ume of our Rank issues has never, within our observation, been so low. The late suspension und consequent depression of business and speculation, drove home from the South-west a large quantity of those bills. As there is but little pro duce coming to tbe market, the Banks have not the usual facility of issuing aud keeping out their bills ; and hence, also, the low range of their exchange lines.— The Ranks which continued specie pay ments through the suspension period, and drew in for safety their circulation, have not again expanded since resump tion. These causes have concurred in producing the limited amount of our pa per currency. The discount lines have remained quite stationary for some months. Tbe specie reserves have con tinued to increase, and were never pre viously so large, and exceed the propor tion of one third to circulation. The de posits, as the discounts, are about the same. No one can doubt the present great strength of our Ranks. The revival of home trade and credit is slow, aud their opportunity for extended operations, will for a time be limited. It would natural ly be inferred that money on ordinary loans would be abundant, on tbe pre sumption that the Banks had no other outlet for the employment of their means. Rut it is precisely under such circum stances, aud at this period of the year, that they exact the highest rates. At other periods, wheu money has flowed iuto circulation through the sale of the incoming crops, and when there are out side supply and competition, their con trol of the loan market is not so com plete, and, therefore, not so despotic.— Charleston Keen.

Facts for the People.—lt was a noted sayiug of the great Dr. Magendie, when lecturing before his class, “ 1 care not a button for theories , give m* facts.** This is likewise the motto of the celebrated Dr. Bragg, who, by a careful observance of facts alone, has been enabled to bring his medi cal preparations to such perfection, llis latest in vention, the arctic Liniment, is also his greatest invention ; and it may be stat. and as a “ tact for the people,” that it is the best liniment now iu exist ence, and destined to supercede all others. Anoth er fact is, that it never fails to cure those diseases for which it is tecommended. The best evidence of the value of a medic no is, that it effects a radi cal cure , and this is emi jently the case with the Arctic Liniment. It cures Rheumatism, Neural ; gia. Paralysis, Spraius, Bruises, Burns Bcalds, Ac., j ! and all eruptive diseases; and is equally efficacious in caring the diseases of animals, such as spavin, j ring-bone, poll-evil, Ac.
