GRANGER’S IMPROVED IRON WITCH. Patented December 1$ 1857. rilllE Patentee,ill presenting this new j"; 1 Stove to tho public, dooms it proper to make a few remarks iu regard to TJf advantages. WflUk The old, well known IRON WITCH J Pf COOKING STOVE has been in the market about TEN YEARS, and has given very general satisfac tion ; but since tho introduction of that Stove, observation and experience has enabled me to make such improvements in my new IRON WITCH us makes it a much better and more de sirable Stove. The oven bottom of the improved IRON WITCH is better protected, aud the heat in the oven more perfectly equalized by a flue passing from back to front under the oven bottom. The air flue at tho back of the oven bottom con ducts a large body of air along the bottom, and up between the front oven plate and Jive-back , pro tecting the latter and equalizing the heat. This air, having become highly heated, passes through tho oven, facilitate h the baking, and curries off all smell and impurities. Meat baked in this ovon will be found entirely free from tho dead baked taste usual to meats done iu tho common air-tight ovens. Asa bread baker, this oven will give great satis faction, and enable the cook to turn out a lighter, more nutritious and palatable bread. The fiue at the back of the oven is divided so as to give much more heat towards tho sides ; by this means equalizing the heat, aud making it more intense at this point, at the same time preventing it from escaping info the stove-pipe before thor oughly heating the Lack and sides of the Stove. With tlio above improvements, the Patentee has also exercised ull the experience of thirty years in tho stove business, in making this Stove STRONG and DU It ABLE. The plates are so constructed and equalized that the expansion and contraction of tho iron will not crack them, and all the parts are strengthened that come in Immediate contact with the fire. In fact, no labor nor expense has been spared in ma king the Improved Iron Witch the very best wood Cooking Stove in tho market, and one that has no uquuL For sale at COLUMBUS IRON WORKS WARE ROOM, near the Bridge, and by D.

Tlie Incoming Cotton Crop. The Thomasville Reporter, published in Thomas county, in Southern Georgia, in its issue of the 6th inst., says : “The weather for the last ten days, in this section of Georgia, has been for most part of the time clear und pleasant. The cotton crop is opening very finely, and planters are busily engaged in gathering the sylvery fruit. In somo places the cotton crop will be short, but in general it will yield a full and fair average turn out. As considerable quantities of fresh lands have been opened since last season the cotton crop in Southern Georgia may be expected to be somewhat increased, also, over and above the production of any year previous to this.” Tlie Captuin of tlia Austria. Mr. Sven Peterson, a Swede, one of tho survivors of the Austria, desires us to correct one or two statements made in what has been published as his account of tho catastrophe. He did not declare, he says, that “there were about one hun dred pounds of powder in the magazine.” lie knew nothing about the quantity of powder there, and had no means of know ing, neither did he represent that “the Captain was the first one who endeavored to leavo tho ship.” Such was not the fact. Mr. Glaubensklee, I’-ofessor in the Prce Academy, has published a supple mentary statement in which he says : “As far as I am able to judge, I never in my life met with a better set of officers rhan I met on the Austria. As far as I could learn, the discipline of tbe ship was excellent. The only fault that I could find was that some of the food was bad. “Mr. Hahn left the Austria soon after tho fire broke out, falling into the water while engaged in lowering the first boat on the port side. When he arrived, after sunset, on tho Maurice, he immediately wanted to go back after more, but was prevented by the Captain, who, through me as interpreter, pointed out the impos sibility of saving any more in the dark ness. The Captain peremptorily refused to let any more men go. It was so dark he considered it impossiblo to do any good, and said he would risk no more liven. “I did not bear any cries in the water during the night, except about 8 o’clock, being those of the second officer, who was rescued. “I never saw a better set of men than the captain, offioers and crew of the Maurice, and never expect to.” A litoral Bankruptcy. The New York correspondent of the Boston journal writes; It seems as if official corruption and fraud wero holding a jubilee in this city. The open and shameless manner that the pnblic treasury is robbed exceeds all former years. Millions of dollars are thus squandered and stolen, and no one is brought to an account. Those who preside over the collection of taxes have made the discovery that immense sums have been fraudulently detained by the collector of taxes, and appropriated to his own account. What is true in this department is also true of corporations. One of the insurance companies of this city, that has stood high, went by the board yesterday. Its capital was $300,- 000, all paid in professedly. It was rep resented as one of the safest and most reliable in the city. A friend of mine one month ago wanted to make an invest ment. A gentleman who held $60,000 of this stock advised this as a safe stock Yesterday a meeting was called of the stockholders. The concern was insol vent. The Comptroller of tho State was present, nnd out of all the assets, good and doubtful, only $70,000 could be found. To the stockholders the loss is complete. Such events are of daily oc currence. It is difficult to tell what is safe and whom to trust. Commercial in tegrity aud business honor seem to be a thing of tbe past. It cannot be denied that the late commercial crisis has seemed to sweep away much besides fortunes. Tbe bounds between right and wrong have bccu broken down. And men who would have scorned to repudiate a debt, or appropriate what is not their own, seem now regardless of publio sentiment or private honor. From the N. 0. Picayune. The First Frost. Messrs. Editors: —As it is a well estab lished fact, that yellow fever does not cease as an epidemic until we Lave a frost, I beg leave to hand you the follow ing extracts from my logbook, of the first frost seen at the New Canal office, corner of Euphronsine and Howard streets, for the last five years. It may be of service in warning absen tees and strangers from coming to our city too early during the present epidemio: 1852—November 14—first frost seen. 1863—November 15—first frost seen. 1854—November 17—first frost seen. 1865 Ootober 26—first frost seen. 1856 September 30—frost reported iu Third and Fourth Districts. 1866 October 2—first frost seen. 1857 October 30—first frost reported in Jefferson City. 1867 November 18—first faost seen. My experience, daring the past twenty five years, teaches me that during the provalenco of all our epidemios, beauti ful, bright, clear weather predominates, as is the case tbe present season.
