Mr. Preutiee’s Lecture.
Notwithstanding the inclemency of the
weather, a very respectable number of
our citizens turned out to hear the Locturo
of Mr. PreiAico, last evening. Wo have
not timo or space to notice at length the
gentleman’s Lecture. The applause which
greeted him at proper intervals, showed
the appreciation of his audience.
Wants Attention.
Wo noticed yesterday that several pla
ces on Thomas street need the immediate
attention of our Marshals, otherwise the
Council may soon have damages to sottle.
Tho bridging, especially at tho junction
of Oglethorpe and Thomas streots, is
really dangerous. Wo know that a hint
to our Marshals is sufficient.
CHurcla Service on Sunday.
Ministers of the Methodist denomina
tion, in attendance on the Georgia Con
terenco, occupied the pulpits of all tho
churches iu this city and Girard, except
the Episcopal and Catholic, on last Sab
bath, and preached, wo understand, to
large and attentive congregations.
At the Methodist Church the pulpit
was supplied in the forenoon by Bishop
l’ierce; in the afternoon by Rov. Hr.
McFerrin, and at night by Rov. Ur.
Boring.
We learn from the Enquirer that at the
M. E. Church in Girard, on Sunday night,
aftor au eloquent and earnest sermon and
exhortations, a great number of mournors
knelt at tho altar to pray and ask an in
terest in the prayers of tho church.
An Outrage.
On last Sabbath evening some person,
sitting in the gallery of the Methodist
Church, and over the middle row of seats,
threw down two quids of tobacco, one of
which fell in a lady’s lap and stained her
dress very badly: the other, thrown soon
afterwards, struck the same lady on the
forehead. Is it possible, that in a land of
civilization—aland of Bibles—of church
instruction—and of Sabbath Schools,
such conduct is carried on and no way to
put a stop to it. It does look as if our
youths wero taking matters into their
own hands. We respectfully suggest to
our Methodist friends to adopt the pew
renting system, and place a police at the
entrance to the galleries with instructions
not to permit any boy or youth to enter
tho gallery unaccompanied by his mother
or father.
Good. Music.
We wero peculiarly fortunate in receiv
ing an invitation to be present on Wednes
day evening last, at a private rehearsal of
an Ametuer orchestra band, composed of
the best musical talent of the city. We
were prepared to hear some good music,
but must confess that wo were astonished,
at the performances. The pieces per
formed, though not tho most difficult,
wero still of that character calculated to
show an outsider what they could and
would do. We are very glad that we can
chronicle the formation of such a society
in our city. There is but one thing lack
ing to make this club finished, we mean
a vocal club composed of both male and
female voices. Then a good olub room
for rehearsals, and our city would bo sup
plied with the ground work of the best
of music. No city can boast of more
talent, or finer discrimination in music
than our own beloved Columbus, and yet
our young people sit idly, contenting
themselves with an occasional piece on
tho piano forte, or a simple love ballad.
This is wrong. We suggest tho formation
of a club, which shall take hold of the
works of tho great Masters, and render
them for tho cars of tho public, carry
them into the social circle, and around
tho lire side. But wo are running rather
a long yarn for which we shall not receive
many thanks. Wo will merely state that
Mr. G. W. Chase is tlio director of tho
band spoken of.
Wonderful I—Accidont and various applica
tions have lately developed some very wonderful
and moat pleasing results. One gentlemen writes
from Albany, N. Y., of very astonishing effects in
his cate (given up by all the doctors of that learn
ed capitol.) Another case just transpiring in Phil
adelphia, now attracting no llttlo attention, to*
gethor with some others, a statement of which tho
fir. is now preparing, will soon turn snch a tide of
imiuiry and interest upou my ELECTRIC OIL, as
was never before directed to a medical discovery-
More has already been demonstrated than we dare
proclaim; as it would not he half Itelieved. It lias
afforded immediate relief iu many cases of Brolaji
sus uteri, and Piles are relieved as if by magic. A
gentleman from N. 0. came here with his family
to have his eyes operated on, having nearly lost
them from Neuralgia and Rheumatic affections,
lias lieen so relievod as to defer the operatian,
in the confident belief that my Oil will restore
him. It has nlTordod most unexpoctod relief in
tho breast anil side, attended with cough and sore
throat, and It at once relieves the worst kinds of
running sores, felons, and all painful affections;
it thoroughly and promptly cures Rheumatism.
John Wyotb, Esq., the well known druggist of
Harrisburg, writes, June 6th, “that Mr. Forbes of
that place, who had suffered great pains about his
loins and on one side about the hip, after using Dr.
Juyne’s rumedy a week, then had tho aid of a phy
i< an some time, who bled him, Ac., was effectually
cured with one bottle of my Oil.” Wo want you
tocoine, let ns examine your esse; do list be dis
heartened, Jwe make no false promises, wo sre a
regular physician, and, moreover, you do nothave
to pay a long time for medical advice and then he
told you can not be helped. We make no charge
for advice, If we cannot cure you we tell you so.

The Military.
Wo publish in another part of our pa
per a communication from (Japt. Semrnes,
in vindication of his command, against
our remarks in our paper of yesterday.
Upon a closer examination of the charter
of his particular company, we find that
tho Sheriff of the county possesses no
stipulated authority to call out his compa
ny, and we presume the samo holds good
in regard to our other companies, ltut
one thing we do know, that it has always
been understood in this community, that
its volunteer force was subject to his
order, in cases of emergency. If other
wise, then our military forco is as useless
as it is extravagant, and should at once
be dispossessed of their exemptions.—
Who, then, has tho right to call out the
military force ? According to Captain
Seiumes’ idea, the commanding officer
alone ; ho stands and holds his position
superior to the Governor of tho Stato.
Is such the law ? Wo trow not; for in
that caso tho militia would be superior to
its commauder-in-chief. But to go back
to tho Sheriff. Let us supposo a combi
nation of circumstances requiring tho aid
of an armed force to assist this officer in
the proper discharge of his duty, lie
calls upon the several captains command
ing the volunteers of tho city, for assist
ance. They may refuse their aid, not
anticipating the danger he does, and ho
nor the Governor possesses tho authority
to force these companies to discharge
their duties—duties in consideration of
■ tho dischargo of which, certain exemp
tions have been granted them. Does not
every one see tho weak and powerless
position the authorities arc placed in ?
Aid to quell an insurrcctien or riot, is
left entirely to tho will of the command
ing officers of tho companies—their aid is
given as a charity, not iu obodicnco to
tho laws of the land.
It is well that this question has been
brought up, that our people may see how
they stand in regard to the military, that
they may see for what they aro exempting
a large number of men from the jury box
and poll tax. We give them exemptions
for what ? To dress up, march up and
down Broad street and go through a few
manoeuvres, shoot at targets, and keep
up the 4th of July ? Is this all we are to
expect from the military ? It seems so
from the Captain’s letter. We pay dear
ly enough for this part of tho show in
runaway scrapes and broken buggies and
wagons, caused by the continued drum
ming around our streots.
In regard to tho condition of tho arms
on the day mentioned, we only spoke as
we knew. So far as the Columbus Guards
are concerned, wo cannot state positively
how many of their guns missed fire ; not
less than ten we are sure, while fully half,
say twelve of the Light Guards, would
not go off. The Captain will recall to
mind that it is a customary thing for the
guns of each of the Companies to miss
fire, even at target practice.
With this we dismiss the subject for the
present. We have no desire to injure the
reputation of the military. On tho con
trary, it makes our bosom swell with
pride when we see them on parade.
Eds. Sun: I have read your article of
tho 20th inst., headed “Tho Military.”—
The Sheriff had no authority whatever,
under the circumstances, to issue an
order to the Company which I com
mand, for the occasion referred to, and if
he had given any order, no attention
would have been paid to it. Our worthy
Sheriff called on me, and stated that he
believed it would be impossible for him,
unaided, to execute his duty properly,
and requested that our Company would
aid him, which wc cheerfully consented
to do, although such scenes are repulsive
to us.
It is not true, as you assert, that half
of our guns would “missfiro.” They were
generally in good order, having been pre
pared for the occasion.
All the preparation deemed nocessary
to give efficient aid to tho Sheriff’ wiis
made. Whenever our Company is pro
perly called on to aid in the execution of
law, or to prevent the violation of law,
such persons as have a fancy to apply to
it the test as to whether it is “powerless”
or not, will have the opportunity.
As to tho Governor having any author
ity to divest our Company of a legal right,
that is simply ridiculous. I would not
hold a commission a day from any State
whoso Executive is invested with any
such power. Respectfully, &c.,
PAUL J. SEMMES.
A Miserable Place.
That street called Dillingham street is
in a very foul condition at present. By
the way, why is it there is no gas lights
on that streot. There is no street in the
city more passed, and yet it is more ne
glected than any other. One or two gas
lights would boos great assistance to
persons who are compelled to pass that
way of nights.
The “Expunging Resolution,” which is
designed simply to restore the code and
discipline of the M. E. Church, South, to
the standard of the New Testament, was
adopted unanimously in tho North Caro
lina Conference at Newborn—ayes eighty
six.
In tho South Carolina Conference, lately
in session in this city, as reported in tho
Courier, the vote on this resolution was
almost unanimous—ayes, one hundred
and twelve; no, one.
The expurgation will be effected by a
largo majority of tho constituent annual
conferences of the M.JE. Church, South.—

Columbus, Ga., December 21,1858* )
COTTQN —Tho business waa much larger than
was anticipated in tho opening of the day. The
sales amounted to 1060 hales at 10 to 11c.; some
small lots of Ordinary was taken at 9%0., and
also small lots of a vory flno article at 11%. Tho
basis of sales waa on Middlings, at 10%c. Tho
wholo transactions of tho day wero confined priu
i cipally to shippers. Receipts 295 hales.
COTTON STATEMENT FOR WEEK ENDING DEC. 18.
Stock on hand Aug. 81, 1858... 812 bales.
Received past week 4899
Received previously 80449-84848 bales.
Total 85600 bales.
Shipped past week 4205
Shipped previously 43198-47463 hales.
Stock on hand 38197 bales.
Our last weekly review of the market quoted
Low Middling at 10 cents and Middling Fair at
11%c., as extremes. During tho week just closod
and now under review tho market has not varied,
unless it bo on Middlings, which have loon in
good request with an improvement amounting to
about %c., while tho bettor grades of Good Mid
dling to Middling Fair have been attracting less
attention, and would, if offered nffire freely, be
depreciated %c. The lower grades of Ordinary
and Low Middling—tho stock of which is daily in
creasing as the season advances to a close—has
boon in better demand. Several hundred bales of
this class, so much neglected before, lias changed
hands during tile week at about 10e., with somo
at 9% cents.
Tho daily receipts continue to a fair oxtont, and,
os is usual at this season, wo frequently hear tho
sound of “tlio last load.” Tho total receipts aro
much in excess of general expectation up to date,
and point very conclusively to a total bustuess for
the season quito satisfactory to tho most sanguine
expectation.
The shipments of the past week exceed any pro.
vious week since early in November, ami arc only
equaled by two weeks this season. ‘ About one
fourth of tlio shipments took a westward direction
via Montgomery, and a small proportion down the
river. The present woek wo may expect still a
a larger business in shipments, mid it is most
probable from tliid out our stock—uow much be
yond tlio capacity of our warehouses—will begin
to diminish.
Tlio transactions from day to day lias boon on so
uniform a basis, that it would bo monotonous to
go through the daily review. Sales of tho weok
3,584 bales. We renow our quotations of last
week with the exception of advancing Middlings
%c. and placing Middling Fair %c. lower. Low
Middlings 10 to 16%c.; Middlings 10% to 10%c.;
Strict to Good Middling 10% to 11c.; Middling Fair
ll%c. Yesterday, Monday, notwithstanding a do
cline in tho western markets, and withal, a vory
inclement day, tho sales woro large at our outside
quotations, amounting to 1,050 bale*.
