biL: from our Evening Edition of yesterday.
Relief for Syria.—The amount of money col
lected in New York and Boston has already risen
above $17,000. The goods sent out by the “Re
lease,” the Government vessel which sailed from
Boston on the 20th ultimo, consisted of two boxes
of clothing seut from other towns, making nine
iboxes of ready-made wearing apparel, besides
Various fabrics which can he readily converted in
to clothing.. One lady in New York city contribu
ted fourteen barrels of flour. There are in all
seventeen barrels of flour, besides several boxes
of butter and other such-like things, all consigned
to the Consul at Beirut; and will be distributed
by the Anglo-American Relief Society, of which
the American Consul is vice president. The mo
ney will be sent in a few days in one of the Gov
ernment dispatches to Beirut.
The Sardinian Navy.—A letter from Genoa, in
the Gazette de France, asserts that the Sardinian
navy is now first in Europe, after those of Eng
land and France. Piedmont, it says, had already
thirty ships of war. Garibaldi has annexed twice
as many at Naples, among them two line of-bat
t!e ships, the Vesuvio and the Monarca. The
Garibaldian navy in the waters of Sicily had
•eight or ten steamers —English, American and
others —given, bought or captured. Besides this,
•the letter says t|iat Piedmont, not expecting so
large an accession of naval force, had made con
tracts in England for eight large steamers, two of
which are already delivered, and also tor an equal
number of_ transports. All these things con
sidered, the Gazette de France reckons the Sar
dinian navy as consisting, or soon to consist, of
nearly one hundred and forty men-of-war.
A Strangely Deliberate Suicide.—On the
morning of the 22d ult., the body of a boy, aged,
perhaps, 18 or 19 years, was found near “Lone
Mountain” cemetery, at San Francisco. A Colt s
revolver was found beside the body. A letter to
the New.York World says :
In a pocket of the pantaloons were found two
piecesof paper, evidently torn from a hand-book,
and on them the following, written in pencil: “So
now lam ready. I have been trying the revolver
the whole afternoon, and it is a tirst-rate one, as
you may see on that piece of paper ten feet dis
tant. 1 would like to go to the border of the wa
ter, that it might drop into it, hut it is a pity for
the pistol that would be lost. Now I make it a
present to Larasou & Cos., that they may see how
easily I could have killed all in one minute, and
as you see it is not that courage prevents me from
doing it now. I will first start for the cemetery,
•and my last words is: World, good-bye, move
on without me. The sun is setting—2lst Septem
ber, 1860. I shall lay down on iny left side and
put this paper in the right pocket, so that no blood
can come at it. I shall shoot myself under the
chin, that the ball may pass straight up into the
brain.” On a second paper was the following :
“[ write in the dark. 1 am back from the cem
etery. That place is too quiet to make such a noise
in.” The suicide apparently intended to sigu his
name to this paper, but the writing is quite illegi
ble. As yet no clue has been gained to any cir
cumstances that might lead to the identification
of the body.
Beau Hickman. —This notoriety has at last fal
len into the iron grasp of the law. His arrest in
New York was for swindling a lady, not a gentle
man, as stated, and the article was a- gold watch.
The Philadelphia Bulletin, speaking of the un
lucky accident, has the following notice of the
chief actor, who, by-the-by, once honored Rich
mond with his residence :
He was a confidence man within the pale of the
law ; for, with the exception of unrequited hoard
bills, and the victimizing of an occasional credu
lous bootmaker or tailor, the beau returned a quid
pro quo for what he obtained. The equivalent he
paid was in telling of a curtain round of comical
stories, which were peculiar to himself, and which
were freely interlarded with a set of quaint slang
expressions, of which the beau was the inventor.
These expressions had an odd force about them
which made them popular, and some of them have
become national peculiarities. .
The telling of these stories always secured
crowds of listeners, and free liquor in abundance,
for the thirsty Hickman; while the lunch tables
in the bar rooms he frequented, alforded him suf
ficient food to live upon when boarding house
.keepers were not tractable. Our Araericau Did
idler subsequently took up his abode in Washing
ton city, where there were good pickings among
the hangers-on of Government. We saw the beau
in Baltimore at the time the Democratic Conven
tion was in session there last summer. With the
exception of some rather heavy lines around the
mouth, and the crow’s feet qbout the eyes, Hick
man looked scarcely a day older than when we
had last seen him in Philadelphia, nearly twenty
years ago. He was clad in a genteel suit of black,
and he had evidently found credit with some deal
er in capillary fluids, for his hair and neat mous
tache were dyed a jet black. The beau had his
ancient swagger, and his quaint remarks con
cerning the troubles in the Democratic ranks were
up to the old standard of Hickmanisms.
Dobbs’ First “Motion.”— Dobbs, during his first
session as a member of the Legislature, was caught
without a speech. He was remarkable for his
modesty, and his thirst for “red eye.”
One unlucky day the proceedings being rather
dull, and Dobbs being rather thirsty, he concluded
to go over to the hotel and take a drink. As
Dobbs rose to leave the hall, he caught the Speak
er’s eye. The Speaker supposed he intended to
address the house, and announced in a low voice—
“Mr. Dobbs!”
Dobbs started as if he had been shot. The as
sembled wisdom of the State had their eyes fixed
upon him. He pulled out his pocket handkerchief
to wipe away the perspiration, and feeling it ne
cessary to say something, he thundered out:
“Second the motion.”
“There is no motion before the house,” said the
Speaker.
“Then I—I—”
The silence was breathless. (
<ij .
Dobbs could not think of anything to say. But
a bright idea came to him, and he fiuished with —
“I move to adjonrn.”
The motion didn’t go, but Dobbs did, and no
thing more was seen of him that day.
Not “Officially Drunk.” —A postmaster on
h ein * notified of a charge of intemperance, re
dlied “acknowledging the corn,” but insisted that
he was not “officially drunk.” His friend ap
pearing to take a great interest in him and it be
ing shown that his office was well conducted, the
Department consented to overlook this first of
fence in- the hope of permanent reformation ; hut
with a pointed intimation, however, that a re
petition of it would certainly cause his removal.—
V U. S. Mail.
A Paris correspondent says that a young Pari
sian who had been imprisoned in Clichy for debt,
<rained his release by the following ruse : By the
laws of the country, the creditors of the unfortu
nate debtor are obliged to pay thirty francs a
month for his support while m confinement, and
bo long as each payment is regurarly made the
prisoner may be in jail. The person referred to
caused a letter to be sent to each of the contribu
ting creditors, giving notice of his death. They
at once ceased paying his board, and the prison
and oors flew open.

COMMERCIAL.
Augusta Market.
Wednesday, 1 P. M.
COTT ON.—There is a fair demand to-day. Buyers offering
easier prices.
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 27.—[Prices Current.] — Cotton—
Arrived since the 23d inst., of Louisiana and Mississippi 29,662
bales, Tennessee.and North Alabama3So2, Arkansas 1198, Mobile
14:39, Texas 413 ; together, 86,615 bales. Total receipts of the
week 67,636 bales. Cleared since the 23d inst, for Liverpool
6272 bales, Barcelona 728, New York 303, Boston -1418 ; together
11,221 bales. Total exports of the week 36,461 bales. Stock in
presses and on shipboard not cleared on the 26thiust., 244,599
hales.
In our semi-weekly report we noticed a degree of irregularity
in the movement and in prices, though at the close we had no
quotable change to .report, and the Business of the first three
days of the week amounted to about 22,000 bales. Od Wednes
day the market opened with a very fair demand whicli improv
ed upon the receipt of the City or Washington’s advices, and
the enquiry became active and general, resulting in sales of
about 16,000 bales, prices during the day beiHg somewhat ir
regular but closing with more steadiness and firmness. On
Thursday holders were quite firm in their pretensions and al
though several buyers entered the market the business fell off
to about 7500 bales without any quotable change. Yesterday
tiie demand was very fair, but less general, and resulted in sales
of about 9000 bales, making a total for the three days of 82,5C0
ba cs, and for the week of 54,500 bales. The market closed
with some irregularity in prices but the business generally has
been done at about the range of our quotations which have un
dergone no material change during the week.

tiugar—Louisiana— ln our semi-weekly rep rt noticed sales
of about 350 hhds of the new crop during the first three days of
the week at rather lower prices for extreme grades, witli little
or no change in the rates for the fair and medium qualities
Since tnen the receipts have considerably increased but have
generally met with a fair demand, prices being very well main
tained, though the market closed rather heavy for the inferior
and common grades which have constituted a considerable pro
portion of the receipts of the last day or two. We now quote :
lnfeiior ; Common to Good Common 6®6 X ; l air
to Fully Fair 7&@B>£ ; Prime to Choice 9)4@9>4 ; Centrifugal
BX@9J4 cents.
Molasses—The receipts of the new crop have been quite
liberal, but with a good demand prices have advanced 4®sc It
gallon during the past week, and we now quote for Inferior and
Ordinary 39®41c, Prime to Choice 42®41c in bbls, and half bar
rels 44@45c P gallon.
Coffee— There has been a fair demand for Coffee during the
past week, leaving the market at the close entirely bare of Good
Fair and Prime descriptions, which are much wanted. We
quote Ordinary 13)4®13>4, and Low Fair to Fair at 13)4(5)
li'Ac. The last sties of Good Fair were at 14)4(5)14%, and of
Prime at 14J(®15c lb. A cargo of 6221 bags has arrived
during the week from Rio de Janeiro direct, making the im
ports since the la Sept. 41,798 bags against 50,391 to the same
date last year. The stock now on hand is about 16,(io0 bags.
Exchange— Since our review of last Wednesday morning the
market has continued to be abundatly supplied with bill of la
ding bills, and with a rather free supply, also, of clear sterling
Exchange. For clear bills the range is from 7)4@8 ct prem.,
good commercial bills being generally sold at 7%@7%, and
ank bills at 8 F cent. Bill of lading bills range from 6V@7)4,
with a good many transactions at 6%@6% pct prem. Francs
have ruled about the same as before, with a qutet market. We
quote selected bills direct on Paris at 5.22)4 and the general run
of drafts on Paris and Havre at {from 5.25®5.30. Exchange on
the North has continued to be in good demand, more especially
for sight bills. We quote the range for 60 day bills on New
York, Boston, &c. at 1%@2>4 ft ctdisc., according to signatures
For sight cheeks the Ba’k rates are A® A Vet discount, and
out-door A&A Vct disc. At a fraction better than aA V cent
discount for sight there is quite a demand.
Freights — The European freight market lias exhibited more
steadiness since our review of last Wednesday morning, at the
rates then quoted. Ships arriving from sea find ready employ
ment at 9-lbd to Liverpool, and l%c to Havre, for cotton. We
noticesix engagements for the and two forthelatter
port at rates, and there has also beeu one ship taken for a
port in the Mediterranean, on private terms. The illling-up
rates to Liverpool and Havre are the same as quoted. In coast
wise freights there is some business doing in the way of ship
ments of cotton to Boston at %c, but the amount of Freight
offering lor New York, and other Northern ports, is still quite
limited.
SAVANNAH, Oct. 30.—[Rep.]— Cotton— The demand to
day was more limited than we for several days,
ana the market, while without change in quotations, is more
favorable to buyers. The sales foot 850 bales. Middlings 11@—,
Strict do. 11)4®—, Good do. Ilk®—, Middling Fair 11)4®—.
Freights — A vessel party loaded with mahogany, from Hon
duras for Liverpool, put into this port in distress, and took the
remainder of her cargo, some 600 bales cotton, at 7-16d, and we
hear a report on the streets that another ship was placed at the
same figure, but could trace the rumor to no reliable sourca.—
kd still continues the asking rate. Room to New York is very
scarce and the rate has advanced to 7-16 e by sail, but remains at
kc by steam.

TIN k SHEET IRON WORKS.
BMOTTdERRY
HAVE the pleasure of advising their customers and the
public, that they have completed arrangements to obviate
two objections that have operated against their receiving so fall
a j hare of patronage as they might otherwise have done. The
first, that of icing too far down town ; the second, that of
having a fully competent and practical man at the head of our
mechanical department. The tirst has been cancelled, by our
fitting up at No. 62 Jackson street, opposite the warehouse of
M. P. Stovall, and near the Hell Tower, a large and convenient
Workshop. The second, by securing the services of Mr. E. E.
SCOFIELD, who will have charge of the mechanical depart
ment of the business. We are thus prepared, from the central
position of our Shop on Jackson street, and the one in the rear
of our Store on Broad street, to accommodate both up and
downtown. We have a large additional force of workmen,
and shall be prepared to execute any style of work known in
our line, with promptness, and at moderate prices. We most
respectfully solicit a share of public patronage.
BUCK MASTER & DERRY.
N. B.—We are not ambitious of occupying a “ leading posi
tion” in the trade of this city, and do not propose to put forth
any “ new effort,” Or trick of legerdemain to gain it, or to oust
others from it, but shall try the old-fashioned way of getting a
living by doing good work, at as cheap a rate as we can afford
it; and though we can’t claim much practical know ledge of the
business in behalf of our “ senior,” we do think we have the
right to claim with emphasis in behalf of our junior—he having
had 33 years of constant practical experience—26 of them in
this city, and not subject to a discount of 11 years spent in the
cotton market. We are not disposed to boast of our “facilities”
to get goods so cheap as to make it impossible to be “ under
sold yet we feel very sure that if others sell cheaper, it will
hardly be “possible” that they will receive “ fair remunerative
prices.” As “ hope springs eternal In the human breast,” and
as we are also stimulated by the lines learned In our school
days, “ Tall oaks from little acorns grow,” &c„ £c., we Rhall
Indulge the hope that at some future day we may approximate
so near “ a lending position” in the trade of our city as to
make it a question not entirely “ beyond controversy” whether
it shall be retained aad monopolised by those who so confident
ly appropriate its exclusive occupancy to themselves. We
trust our friends will pardon us for entertaining such ambitious
hopes, , octl3-dtf

ELEVATED DOUBLE OVEN
RANGE,
The most economical and quick operating Range ever invented.
Housekeepers and others are invited to examine this Range
before purchasing. Its real advantages cannot he detailed;
but suffice it to say, that for quick, even and beautiful Baking,
and moderate consumption of Fuel, it must supercede every
other similar apparatus.
These Ranges can lie fitted with Water. Backs, and fixtures
for heating additional rooms ; and are sold lust as low as any
good Cooking Stove. We are also Agents for
CHILSON’S PATENT FURNACE,
FOR HEATING
Dwellings, Clrur dies,

And other public buildings. This apparatus, having been sub
jected to the mt st rigid test by the first Scientific men of the
age, has been pronounced incapable of farther improvement.
We are also Agents for the sale of the
WEST CASTLEBORO’
Imitation Marble Slate
MANTLES.
The imitation is so perfect as to challenge the closest scrutiny.
They retain their polish longerthan Marble, and, in appearance,
are much superior. They cannot be injured by smoke, coal
gas, or acid; and are sold at a great deal less price than Marble
of the same style.
By prompt and close application to enr business, we hope to
merit the patronage of our friends and the public generally.
