IVo sec that 15. A. Reynolds, Ksq., a Mo bilian, is preparing a work for the Press, bearing the above title. Mr. Reynolds was formerly a citizen of Charleston, and a member of the Legislature of South Car olina, and was personally acquainted with Mr. Calhoun, us well us with the dillercnt characters ho delineates. Ne.v Hook. C. It. Snead, at Marion, Ala., is en gaged in the laudable enterprise of pre paring a volume which shall contain a history of all tho Southern Colleges. Each “history” will occupy a space in the hook of from three lo ten pages. Each essay will he written hy someone (Jirectly in terested in the College of which it treats. Ths book will ho valuable us a work of reference. It will contain an engraving of every College in the South. If tho en terpriso is successful, the work will np pear in March, 1860. ♦ Frost tu Hie Kuat and Nnilli. Papers from the East and North give accounts of sudden changes in the weath er—tho temperature being very low. In Hartford, on the 15th, it was as low as 558 degrees half an hour after sunrise. The towns in .Middle and Northern Con necticut have been visited by a frost, in some places freezing vegetables perfectly stiff. The tobacco remaining uncut, the llrrtford Times says, was injured. The towns in the vicinity of Dostou were visited by frost on th ■ night of the 14th, and the Cleveland Pluindealer, of the bume date, is informed that corn throughout Northern Illinois is complete ly destroyed by the frosts of the preced ing week. More Goo Is for llie South. The Richmond Dispatch of the 16th says: Mr. S. S. Cottrell, saddle and harness maker of this city, lias just filled and shipped three largo orders for saddles and harness, to Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi. Some of these goods have gone to New York to bo sent from that place to Alabama and Mississippi, while others have taken the railroads for their destination. The mechanics and manu facturers of Richmond can furnish the South everything they need, on ns good terms and of as good quality as Now York or Boston, and it is gratifying to find that the farmers and planters of tho Southern States aro awakening to the im portance of strengthening the hands of their own friends by withholding supplies from their enemies. . - ♦ ICugll.li Commerce. Tho Loudon Times, of tho 25th ultimo, says : Tho Board of Trade returns for the past mouth show an augmentation in our com merce, although to a less extent than most of the preceding returns of tho pres ent year. In the declared value of our exportation there was nn excess of £291,- 454, compared with July, 1858. Com pared, howev.r, with tho corresponding month of 1853, when the reckless opera tions which led to the panic in tho autumn of that year were nt their height, they present a falling off of £916,631. Still, j the entire returns thus far for the present j year—viz: for tho seven months from 1 January to July—exhibit nn increase even ; over the sarno months of 1557, when the export trade of the country reached a height never before attained. Owing to the demand for tho East, cotton goods continue to figure for tho heaviest in crease, but the shipments of linens have also been unusually large. Senator Douglas nt Wooster. \\ oosTKit, Sept. 10.—Senator Douglas had an enthusiastic reception heroto-duy. 1 Thousands of people welcomed him at tho depot. He spoke for about two hours, and was patiently listened to throughout. His speech was hy no moans enthusiasti cally received, it was in tho main but a rehearsal of his Harper’s article. Ho claimed that tho Ropulicuns held doc trines in regard to the Territories identi cal with those of King tleorgo the Fourth and the Tories of the Revolution, regard ing the colouies, He also attacked the At. . t orttey General Black's review of hie Harper article with great bitterness—charged him with falsifying and seeking to destroy the Demo cratic i>arty—doing it anonymously, ami with the purpose of sinking down, not only him (Dough is), imi all the leaders ot the Demo erotic party in the fret States. He denied that he (Douglas) held to docilities in op position to the Dred fccott decision, but claimed that decision sustained his doc- ! trines of popular sovereignty. Ho ex- i horted the Democrats to redeem Ohio and i lake position alongside of Illinois. He was very hitler in some portions of his speech. Ho was succeeded by Ramsey and Pugh, who each spoke for about an’hour. From four to six thousand people in were alien danceduring the speech of Senator Doug las. More then half the crowd had left the ground before Mr. Pugh closed his re marks. Senator Dougins has by no means increased bis reputation by his speech or his manner of delivery. - Vaele Tomlim Dead In England. The literary Gazette: “Who will be lieve that Mrs. Stowe is now in England ? that tho American authoress, who, but a short time ago, created such a sensation, is actually among us without receiving any public uotioo at all? The lady, however, is in this country, and engaged upon her new tale.” How fearfully per sonal all that is! Mrs. Stowe— Harriet lleeeher Stowe—the manufacturer of I n cle Tom’s Cabin, the sister of our Beech- I k er—she in London and Coekueydom is not in ecstacies! Col. Potter’* Speech. Pursuant to appointment Col. Putter, one of the independent candidates for Congress from this District, addressed the pcoplo yesterday, nt Temperance Hall. A small crowd, comparatively, gave him audience. We regret that it was not larger—if for no other reason than that j of his being a stranger and a respectable speaker. “Some things may ho done as well'as outers,” as Sam Patch’s aphorism goes ; but ouo of the impossible things is for a “no parly” candidate to excite a great ileal of cuthusiasm in the people. I Col. Potter's positions were not decidedly I antagonistic to tho Democracy—but lie is evidently a Democrat in principle, but dissatisfied with the courso of that party upon the Kansas and other questions af- | feeling the rights of the Boutli, and there fore disaffected towards the support of its nominees. He was equally as severe upon what he termed tho “Whigo Know | Nothing-Opposition party.” He believed j both of them inimical to and unfaithful to : the l ights of the South. There cun be no doubt that Col. Pot | ter’s course and positions are prompted ! by honesty, and, wc believe, feelings of patriotism, however others limy differ i with him. As to his election, he does not 1 appear to bo very sanguine, and next to j himself awards the preference to our mu tual friend, Gen. Detliune. But the first Monday in Ootober will decide the ques tion, when, as the Mexicans say, nosvere \ mos, or, wo shall see what we shall see. ♦ Kail Knnd Movement. We learn that tlio Opelika und Oxford : Rail Road Company are making constant ; additions to the amount of stock suhscrib ed.to their enterprise. Kincc the session of Chambers Circuit Court Judge Rich ards has obtained subscriptions to the amount of thirty thousand dollars. There is now one hundred and fifty thousand j dollars’ worth of stock taken—all solvent 1 —and as soon as the amount can be rais ed to one hundred and seventy-five thous and—which will probably be done be fore Court adjourns—the Company will commence letting out contracts for grad ing. Our citizens will therefore perceive Hint this enterprise is no longer a “ vis ionary fabric,” but lias become a literal reality in the determined purpose of its friends. Then a little encouragement and aid from this locality, would certainly do much towards forwarding this important measure. Will not our capitalists, then, lend a helping hand lo the good work, and thus aid in giving a permanent growth to our village, nod a general increase to all the business and agricultural interests of tho community. Opelika Era. This road will bring cotton and other produce to Montgomery. Mark the pre diction. It will be cheaper to send cotton | from Opelika to Mobile and Pensacola via j Montgomery, th an to ship it to Savannah ior Charleston. This, we think, is per fectly plain ; for the distance lo the Gulf ports will be but little over half that to tlie Atlantic. Wo say, hurrah for tlio : Opelika ami Oxford Hail Hoad! Mont. Mail. Would the Mail he willing to vender a little more substantial assistance to help along thr projected roads lo Opelika, or advise tho good citizens of Montgomery to contribute in that way 1 If it has confi dence in the prediction that the roads would bring Cotton and other produce to Montgomery, she ought to bo glad of lire opportunity to contribute. Wo suspect however, the Mail does not entertain tlie same confidence in the aid the roads to Opelika would give to Montgomery, that it lias in tho Central, or any oilier of tlie rnil road enterprises of that city. • —♦- ■ —— Tlie Wheat and Corn Crops of the West. The Cincinnati Knquirer, of the 15th inst., publishes a letter from Mr. Charles i Cist, the well known statistician of that oily, who has just returned from a busi , ness tour through Illinois, Indiana, lowa 1 and Missouri, passiug along (lie routes of j tho Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton, tho Pittsburg, Port Wayne aud Chicago, Bur lington and Quincy, and the Ohio and Mississippi Hallways, besides many minor railway routes. He has, therefore, iiad an opportunity of ascertaining the condi tion of tho wheat crop, recently gathered in, and that of tho corn crop, which is : still principally out in the fields; und, as j there have beyn many conflicting state | mouts given to tlie public on these points, his statements will be very interesting. 1 lie says : On the subject of the wheat crop, there j is a remarkable concurrence of testimony | throughout Illinois, Indiana and Missouri. The grain is well ripened and plump, nnd of tlio usual weight, averaging generally, a one-half crop, in bushels, as judged lit 1 the period of cutting. A large share has | since been threshed out, and the state ment has uniformly been made to me that wlmt was supposed to be ten bushels to the acre threshed out but five bushels eight bushels realized but. four, and six bushels, throe. The New York estimates of Western wheat surpluses will deceive every man who relies on them as a business basis. In my opinion, the throe States 1 have alluded to will not furnish enough wheat floor for the usual supplies at home. Corn, with few exceptions, everywhere i looks well. But much of it was planted late, ami is in danger from frost. By the | beat Information 1 could obtain, nnd eon firmed in its general totie by what I my ! sell saw, 1 judge that two-thirds of the corn on the great routes I traveled, and 1 i of the adjacent regions, is out of danger, ; and it is probable, iu nuy event, that \ three-fourths of tlio standing corn will be i housed ripe —if severe frost holds off two ! week, a yet larger share. 1 observe tho papers report recent dam ! aging frost. There lias been no frost to hurt tlie growing corn, south of a line ; drawn Irom Lima, Ohio, to Burlington, lowa I’rotu the line of the Ohio and Missis ! sippi Kail Itoad, Mouth, there is much I fruit, and ot good quality, 1 bought fine j peaches at forty ceuts per bushel; nnd we haven't had any apples for tivo years, in I Ohio, oowpnrablo in quality with those of ! Illinois. •—■ ♦ American (took* In Knio|ir. The New York, Commercial Advertiser, of the 10th inst., en} s ; The privato letter* received by tlie Kuropa do not speak favorable of the prospects for Americau stock in the Ku ! ropeati markets. Keen the U. SC Gov ernment stocks bad been unfavorably affected by tlio troubles of the Erie Hail Road. Illinois Central shares continue to fall at the rate of about one per cent, per dav, and have again been quoted 41 discount. ♦ Eagle Eliot. Mr. John L. Akins, of this countv, showed us a few days ago, the claw of nn Kagle. which lie shot on Little River, a few miles from this place. It measured from tip to tip. with the wings extended six feet and four inches, nnd weighed seven und a half pounds. The shooting of an eagle, is quite a rare in sporting achievements of this part of the oountry, , The claw may be seen at our oftioo,— Mad- , I ison Visitor, TELEGRAPHIC ITEMS.

In tlie United Slates Circuit Court Llias Howe lias obtained in junctions on the j Sewing Machine patent of 1840 ngaiust Charles H. Muller nnd James YV. Dutton. No More Fear. YVe have reached tlie 18th of Septcui bet , and tlio summer season may be prop | erly said to be over, and wo have been spared the ruinous nnd sad visitation of an epidemic. Never lias tlie health of tlie city been so continually good as du ring the past season, and now, at the beginning of the fall, when absentees are looking anxiously to return, aud mer chants calculating how soon trade will ! open, wo can rejoice at the prospects be fore us, and safely say there is nothing more to bo feared. The experience of tho past enables us to say that all dangers of yellow fever are now passed. By referring back to past years, we see something systemati cal in the match of tho epidemic, which presents the same features every year, differing only iu the number of deaths according to the more or less violeneo of the disease, but preserving always the ’ same ratio. YVe will lake a few exam ples at random : in 1846, the fever began late and tho number of deaths were very (small; we find tho first case in the Board of Health’s report for tlie week , ending on the tith September; tlie next week there were 3 cases, then 5, then 21, after which the number of deaths do , creased weekly, in 1847, (a very bad season,) on tlie 16th of July 5 oases are reported, then 6, 16, 47, 96, nnd so on, nearly doubling every week, until it reached 427, and then decreasing, lu 1855, there was 1 case on tho 3d of June; then no deaths occurred during tho en suing two weeks; ou the fourth week there were 5 deaths, then 6, 81, 4;!, 119, and so on. YY'o do not find nn instance where a mouth lias intervened tlie first case of yellow fever and the next; wc may safely presume, then, that even if the two eases reported in July and subsequently contradioted, were ad mitted to have been really yellow fever, they were isolated cases, presenting un usual features nnd without tlio charttc i (eristics of tho epidemic. Another point is that so far as we can remember, the latest date at which the fever ever made its appearance here, was on th? 17th of I of September, in 1856, wo believe, mid then it was imported from Havana, and did but little ravage. YYitlt tlio present strict enforce sent of the quarantine reg ulations, it is impossible to introduce tlio epidemic here from abroad, and tlio cold weather which will, to all appearance, begin early tins year, will do away with the remotest possibility of tho disease YVe can, therefore, look thankfully up a the past nnd confidently upon the coming season; New Orleans will make another gigantic itrido before the year 1859 is over. —X. (). Picayune. - , Injur) to the Cotlou Crop. Tlie destructive storm of Thursday lust, added to the submerging rain of yester day has played tlie wild with the cotton crop of middle Alabama. A ride of twen ty-live miles on Monday, through the cotton growing region convinced us that tlio injury lo the crop is very heavy. It was absolutely distressing to look upon the stricken fields, that only u few days i since were rejoicing in tlio abundance of their harvests. Many thousand bales of cotton have been lost to Alabama planters by the disasters of the last week.— Mont, gomert/ Confederation 21st. ♦ Injury from GttßiiHmlcre A lad residing on Hunt street, saj* the Mercury ofyesterday evening, was severe- ‘ !y injured a few days ngo by guupowder.

Picayune. Tlie Sugar Crop- Si. James, Sept 12, 1859. Messrs. Editors .—On my return, after | an absence of nearly three months, I was j very much disappointed at Ihe appearance i of our sugar crops. Coming up from the : city on our popular packet the D. F. Ken- j tier, 1 met planters from different, sectious ! of the State, ond with one nccord they agreed that the sugar crop was “mean, ! mean.” I was the moro astonished at ! their avowal, because from the informa- ! ; lion contained in the country correspond- ! ence of the New Orleans papers during I the summer, I had concluded that our su gar crop was of average quality. My own ! cane when I left home was not much in ! ferior lo that of last year; now it is fully j a month behind, and in my humble esti mate a fair crop—say 300,000 hhds.— 1 can only be realized hy an extraordinari ly favorable fall. I hardly conceive a motive Hint can induce a planter to give | incorrect information respecting his crop. 1 1 regard it to be the interest of producer and consumer that the truth be publish- j I ed. As for that go-between, the specu lator, “o’esl uue outre affaire.” At this season his emissaries are busy knocking ! down prices. Our grinding season will not begin till late in October. No one seems in a hurry as there is plenty of litre for preparation. Our corn crops are very good, and the health of the community j satisfactory. Yours, Colonel. New Telegraph Lines. The Western Union Missouri River, nnd Missouri, Kansas and Utah Telegraph Companies, have entered into an agree ment, (we see by a dispatch of the 9th, from New York,) by which the former j Company assumes the control of all tire | telegraph lines west of St. Louis ; and ar i rangements are making to extend tho tel- ! ogrnph wires from St. Louis to Fort Smith, Ark., on (lie lino of the Butterfield Over | laud Route, and also from St. Louis to Atchison and Utah. The lattir line is I now in operation f.r four hundred miles west, of St. Louis : and that from St. LouU ! via. Fort Smith is in good working order about three hundred miles west of St. Louis. Another section of two hundred miles is soon to be opened on this route. Dcatti of Dr. McWhorter. We hear with profound sorrow, this morning, of the death, last night, of Dr. A. B.
