The Texas Steamboat Explosion.
We have received no further direct intelligence
of the disastrous steamboat explosion in Texas,
reported in Saturday’s issue. The mails are very
much disordered, our latest newspaper advices
from New Orleans being to the 30th ult.
Wb* learn, however, that sufficient information
has been received by the friends of the parties on
board, to indicate that lion. I. T. Ibvin was pro
bably lost, instead of Mr. Battlk, and that the in
telligence is probably only too true.
That Victory in Florida.—The Breckinridge
press continue to publish the returns from Flori
da, with “giory enough for one day” and such
like expressions, annexed to almost to every
county. Somehow, they omit to compare the
vote with that given at the last election, which wo
have done, and find that almost in every county
the Democratic strength has been materially re
duced, and that if the Democrats carry the State
at all, it will be a victory without a triumph.
In Escambia, where in 1858 was close,
the Bell candidate has a majority of some 250.
Duval, a Democratic county, gives Hopkins
(Bell and Everett) for Governor, about 100 major
ity.
Leon, in 1858, gave 259 Democratic majority;
this year between 40 and 50 !
Gadsden, in 1858, gave 167 majority for the De
mocrats, and now Hopkins has carried it by a
majority of 70!
Jefferson gave, in 1858, 352 majority for the De
mocrats ; this year the Democrats claim from 225
to 250, or a loss of 100 !
Madison gave 39 majority for the Democrats in
1858, and 170 this year, about the only county
where there is a Democratic gain.
In Allachua, Milton gets 233 majority over
Hopkins, which is pmother loss.
A few,'liore anch victories and the Florida De
m Aacy will be ruined.
By yesterday’s mail, wo received the following
in addition to the returns already published :
Lake City gives Milton (Dem.) for Governor 183,
Hopkins (Union) 229—a gain.
Marion county gives Milton 406, Hopkins 234.
Jackson gives a reported majority of 45 for
Milton and Hilton.
In Liberty Hopkins beats Milton by a majority
of 18.
Franklin gives 140 majority for Milton, and
Wakulla 6 majority for the same candidate.—Sa
vannah Republican. B th.
Florida Election. —The election for Governor,
Congressmen and members of the Legislature
came off on Monday last. As yet our advices are
unreliable. In Gadsden county, the report is that
the Democracy have been beaten; in Jackson,
one Opposition man elected to the Legislature;
in Leon, Brokaw, Dem., elected to State. Senate,
and perhaps the Democratic Representatives both
a lected. Such is the flying report. —Bainbridge
Ab-gus, Uh.
Terrible Catastrophe —A Man Killed. —The
freight train on the Opelika branch of the Mont
gomery and West Point Railroad, met with a ter
rible accident upon its arrival in the c ity yester
day evening, by which Mr. Mark Kelly, the En-
e inter, was instantly killed, and a passenger on
oard had his ankle severely sprained. Some
three or four cars are a total wreck, and their
fragments scattered nromiscuously over the
f round. The large and new engine B. S. Bibb,
ut recently put on this road, is seriously dam
aged, while the tender is almost ruined.
Ab near as we can learn, the following are the
circumstances attending this calamity : It is the
custom of the employees on arriving at the west
bank of the Chattahoochee, to cut the engine
loose from the train and run on to a turn out,
while the train follows on the main track and
passes on to the depot, east of the city. This
course has been heretofore successfully followed,
on this occasion, however, the train followed
so close upon the engine, that the switchman had
not time to shift the switch on the main track. —
With tefrible force and rapidity, the train came
down on the engine; from which a negro tfreman
jumped in time to save himself; the engineer
was not, however, so fortunate, and was thrown
• from his machine by the force of the collision.—
The loss will be very heavy on the company in
cars smashed and freight injured.— Columbus Sun.
6th inst.
Unfortunate Accident. —An unfortunate ac
cident occurred at the plantation of Col. B. H.
Robinson, on the Big Pond, in this county, on
Saturday last. Mr. Charles Taliaferro, the overseer
on the place, had employed a man by the name of
A J. Ross, of Randolph county, a well digger by
trade, to go into one of the wells and sink it deep
er. He had worked in it several days and had gone
down some twenty feet. On descending the well
oti Saturday morning he became suffocated from
the gas that had accumulated, gave the alarm,
and in attempting to draw him up, he fell from
the rope and died instantly. He was taken out as
soon as possible, but life was extinct.— Early
county News.
War-in Calhoun County, Florida.— We learn
from the Mariana Patriot that the Regulators had
attacked the house of Jesse Durden, killing him
and a man by the name of Willis Musgrove, and
. .Durden.
We have before us a letter from Mariana, in
forming us of the startling intelligence that the
militia of Jackson county was to have been or
deree out on the 13th inst. to proceed at once to
Calhoun. The war is carried on by citizens of
Gadsden, Liberty, Calhoun, Jackson and Wash
ington counties, against a set of desperates in
Calhoun county, wno have been making offen
sive threats, and are guilty ot serious acts against
society and the law.— Quincy (Fla.) Republic.
Sad Calamity. —A correspondent of the Upson
Pilot says that Mrs. Mitchell of that place, was
returning on last Friday night, in company with
her husband, Mr. Calvin Mitchell, from “Mount
Zion,” a church about eight miles in the country;
and their horse being eager to follow’ some bug- <
gieu that Wfere ahead, and excited by others still
passing, began to run and kick furiously. Mrs.
M in an effort to jump out of the buggy, entanj
gled her foot in some way, perhaps between the
spokes of the wheel, and broke and crushed the
bones of her leg just above her ancle. Having
been in ill health for some time previous, she was
not in a condition to abide the severe shock ; and
died Tuesday noon, 3X day ß fr° m the time of the
injury.
TnE Small Pox in Brooks County.—A friend
at Quitman writes us, under date of the 3d inst.,
as follows : “Up to this time we are informed no
new case of Small Pox has occurred in the coun
ty and we begin to entertain hopes that it will go
no further. All the persons who waited upon Mr,
Pike, and were all exposed to danger of taking
the iisease, have been confined to the house in
which be died ever since, and other necessary pre
cautions have been taken to prevent a spread of
the disease.”— Thomasville Reporter , 6th.

’ Markets.
Charleston, Oct. 6.—Sales of cotton to-day
1050 bales, at prices ranging from 7 to 11% cents.
The market was easier.
A despatch from St. Paul, Minnesota, says that
Gov. Willard, of Indiana, died there on Friday
last of consumption.
Ordered to Leave. —The citizens of Burke
county ordered three men, Peterson B. Cochrane,
an overseer on the Central Railroad, at station 8%,
John Hart, sr., and John Hart, jr., keepers of a
store at the station, to leave those parts instanter;
for very improper conduct in connection with the
negroes in the neighborhood.
Sad Occurrence.— On Monday last, a little son
of Wm. H. Moore, Esq., of this vicinity, fell into
a cistern, and before assistance could reach him,
was drowned. We deeply sympathize with Mr.
Moore in his heart-rending bereavement.—Hunts

Outrage at Wiutesburg. —We understand that
on Thursday, the 27th of September, three men,
named William Franklin, Thomas Rush and Jas.
Monroe, attacked a gentleman named Mr. James
Glover, near Wbitesburg, in this county, and beat
him unmercifully, leaving him, as they thought,
dead. The men were arrested and tried before
John Morris and J. H. McAdams, magistrates, and
committed to the jail in this place. —Huntsville
(Ala.) Independent, 6 th.
Fratricide. —On Tuesday last, Reuben G. Vin
cent, a youth about 20 years of age, killed his
brother, John, about 22 years of age, at his father’s
plantation, near Maysville, in this county, by
shooting him several times with a revolver, and
also with a double-barrel shot gun. Some thirty
or fortyshot were found to have taken effect. We
have not learned the particulars. They were both
sons of Mr. Clement Vincent, of this vicinity, who
is much respected, and he and his family have the
sympathies of tbe entire community. —Huntsville

REMOVAL.
THE .undersigned, Agent for the above Fertiliser, in conse
quence of its marked success the past season, and the great
ly lncrtased demand arising therefrom, has made arrangements
with the manufacturer for a large and full supply; and re
quiring greater facilities for storage and other accommodation,
Isas taken the four story Warehouse as below, where lie will he
able to supply any .quantity required, with promptness. He
may be allowed to express his satisfaction in view of the fact
that of rhe numerous purchases made of him by planters, gene
rally for the purpose of making comparative tests with other
fertilisers, not one case has come to his knowledge where our
Fertiliser has not shown a decided superiority. Planters who
have used Manes’ I’hosphate, now make it their sole reliance,
and are ordering (some of them) as much as fifty tons, for use
the next season. This fact speaks for itself. We have discov
ered a quality, developed In the drouth, which was before unob
served, viz ; its hygrometric power, or capacity, to absorb
moisture from the atmosphere, which obviated to a large extent
the late unparalleled drought where it was used, while, most
other fertilisers were not only valueless, but positively injurious
to the plant. The safety and profit as a money investment,
arising from the use of Mapes’ I’hosphate, are now placed be
yond question, and the experience of the past season, nas estab
lished what we have, without hesitation, always asserted for It,
that is the only fertiliser reliable under all circumstances of
soil*mode of cultivation, and of weather.
The undersigned is also prepared to supply any description of
AGRICULTURAL MACHINERY and IMPLEMENTS, of
the latest improved patterns adapted to Southern cultivation, at
lowest prices.
J. A. QUIMBY,

J. C. DAWSON’S
Guano Depot,
NO. 2 WARREN BLOCK,
Augusta.
There is to be found in this establishment a
greater variety, and a larger stock of pure and
genuine Natural, Mixed and Manipulated FER
TILIZERS, than in any other South of Baltimore,
and the Planters of Georgia, South Carolina and
Alabama, are requested to call and examine the
stock before buying elsewhere—they will do well
to do so.
The most satisfactory certificates from reliable
Planters in Georgia and South Carolina, are daily
coming in, testifying to the virtue of these Ma-.
nuree, and will be, after Ist of November, for
warded in pamphlet form to any who may wish to
goe them.
The AMERICAN GUANO, notwithstanding tha
unfavorable season, has won a reputation through
out Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina, (where
it has been extensively used,) that sets aside all
cavil as to its position among the best Fertilizers
vet discovered. It stands side by side with Peru
vian.
It is true there have been some failures—always
will be —so there has been with Stable Manure
and Peruvian, indeed, every kind this season, but
that does not prove that American Guano will not
pay a large per centage. In almost every case,
where there has been what is called a failure, it
has been owing either to the manner in which it
was applied, the cultivation or the quantity used.
Some put it too far from the seed—some lose half
.by the wind blowing it away—others by mixing
it with Stable Manure, or by using not half enough
to the acre ; but take it as it was used, by the in
experienced as weH as the experienced Planter,
ana so far as we have been able to learn the truth,
in nine cases out of ten the Guanoed Cotton, Corn,
Wheat, Oats, Barley, Rye, Turnips, and all Gar
den Vegetables, have yielded nearly twice as
much as the unguanoed land—so it pays even in
the dryest seasons. Vou make but little this year
—poor crops—but if you had used no Fertilizer,
you would have made next to nothing. If the
seasons had continued throughout July and Au
gust as they did up to the 15th of June, the old
worn-out hills of Georgia and Carolina would
have groaned under the weight of the most over
whelming crops that were ever gathered. So
don’t be discouraged, but follow the example of
the Dicksons, Thos. Whaley, T. J. Smith, of Han
cock ; Judge Roberts, of ‘Warren ; Dr. Mims,
T. G. Lamar, and the Ransfords, of Edgefield,
■S. C.; who return annually to their land from $4
to $6 worth of acre, and your suc
cess will be like theirs, an overwhelming income
for the money invested, to say nothing of the per
manent improvement of your lands.
Among the varieties I offer to the public, are
the following: AMERICAN, PERUVIAN, SWAN
ISLAND, COLUMBIAN, MONK’S ISLAND CO
LUMBIAN, MEXICAN ’ GUANO, RUFFIN’S
PHOSPHO, (which is one-half Peruvian,) SANDS’,
HOYT’S, LONGETT SUPER-PHOSPHATES, and
MANIPULATED GUANOS, BONE DUST and
LAND PLASTER.
All these Manures are pulverised and ready for
immediate use. All orders will receive prompt
attention.

I ourchased ohe of Geo. B. Hack's Southern Planter’s Cotton
Press, In the Fall of ’59, with which I packed 50 bales of cotton,
averaging 15 bales per day, with two men and two boys, bv
hand. I regard it as tbe best Press I have seen. You can pack
any kind oi weather, without exposure to hands. It Is quite
honvenient, and with care, will last 50 years. 1 would rather
buy one of Hack’s Presses than to have the common pregs given
to me :md warranted. D. A. RICHARDSON, M. D.

Dear Sir : Your Press gives me perfect satisfaction. It is
certainly the best application of power 1 have ever seen—two
negro fellows being able, without much effort, to pack a bale of
cotton weighing over five hundred pounds. With a little more
spaed it would be perfection. Yours, truly,
D. WYATT AIKEN.
Pope Hill, Jefferson Cos., Ga., July 11th, 1860.
Messrs. Hack & Duval—Dear Sirs: Having packed onec-op
of cotton on the “Iron Screw Press” I purchased of you last
Fall, I take pleasure in stating that it gives me entire satisfac
tion. I find it all you represent it to be, and, for convenience,
cheapness and durability, do not believe It excelled by anything
of the kind I have ever seen. In a word, I tiling it just the ar
ticle cotton planters have long net ded, and will have, as soon
as they become acquainted with its superior advantages.
Yours, respectfully, J. W. BRINSON.

HAIR IB VIGOR ATOR.
AN EFFECTIVE, SAFE AND ECONOMICAL
COMPOUND,
FOR RESTORING GREY HAIR
to Its original color, without dyin % and preventing the Hair
from turning grey.
FOR PREVENTING BALDNESS,
and curing it when there is the least particle of vitality for re
cuperative euergy remaining.
FOR REMOVING SCURF At DANDUFF
and all Cutaneous Affectionr jf the Scalp.
FOR BEAUTIFYING THE HAIR,
mparting to it an unequalled gloss and brilliancy, making it
soft and silky in its texture, and causing It to curl readily.
The great celebrity and the increasing demand for this une
qualled preparation, convinces the proprietor that, one trial is
only necessary to satisfy a discerning public of its superior quali
ties over any other preparation at present in use. It cleanses
the head and Bcalp from dandrufl and other cutaneous diseases;
causesthe hairto grow luxuriantly,and gives it a rich, soft,
glossy and flexible appearance; and also where the hair is
loosening and thinning, it will give strength and vigor to the
roots, and restore the growth to those parts which have become
bald, causing it to yield a fresh covering of hair.
There are hundreds of Ladles and Gentlemen in New York
who have had their hair restored by the use of the Invigorator,
when all cither preparations had. failed. L. M. lias in nis pos
session letters innumerable testifying lo the above factH, from
persons of the highest respectability. It will effectually pre
vent the hair from turning grey until the latest period of life ;
and in cases where the hairhas already changed its color, the
use of the Invigorator will certainly restore it to its original
line, giving it a dark, glossy appearance. Asa perfume for the
toilet and a Hair Kestorative, it is peculiarly recommended,
having an agreeable fragrance ; and the great facilities it affords
in dressing the hair, which, when moist with the Invigorate
can be dressed in any required form so as to preserve its placo,
whether plaiu or in curls—hence the great demand for it bv the
ladies as a standard toilet article widen none ought to be with
out, as the price places it within the reach of all, being
ONLY TWENY-FVE CENTS
per bottle, to be had at all respectable druggists’ and perfumers.
L. MILLER would call the attention of Parents and Guar
dians to the use of ids Invigorator, in cases where the childrens’
Hair inclines to be weak. The use of it lays the foundation for
a good head of Hair, as it removes any impurities that may
have become connected with the scalp, the removal ot which is
necessary, both for the health of the child and the future ap
pearance of its Hair.

and thoroughly organized establishment of the kind on this con

size. In sumptuousness, and in the general elements of comfort
and enjoyment. The Hotel has accommodations for 1,000
guests, including 100 complete suites of apartments for families,
six hundred persons can be comfortably seated at the tallies of
its three public dining rooms, and nothing that modem art has
devised for the convenience and social gratification of the travel
ing dublic has been omirted in its plan, or Is neglected in its
practical details. The early reputation of the house, at home
and abroad, derived from its magnitude, its superb appoint
