THK DAILY TIMES.
THE CITY. J
Our Telegraphic Arrangements. J
We have the satisfaction to announce to our
readers that we have contracted with the As
sociated Press to iurnish us with the latest Tele
graphic intelligence It is unnecesary to remark
upon the absolute reliability of the information to
be derived from this soutce. The readers of the
Time* will henceforth be put in possession of
commercial, political and general news, simulta- j
neously with its reception in Augusta, Savannah,
and other Southern cities.
New {Advertisement.
Notice the advertisement of It. i. Moses, Troas. j
Columbus Building and Loan Association, of a
sale of real estate, on the first Tuesday in Octo
ber next.
See also the law card of Messrs. Liam and Ol
iver, Attorneys in Buena Vista, Marion Cos. Ga.
Free Night School.
We learn that one of these very desirable in
stitutions is about to open in our city. Several of
our young citizens have associated themselves as
teachers, while others have drawn on their ever
ready purses to defray the expenses. The school
room in rear of the Episcopal Church has been ,
obtained, and the school will be opened on the j
20th hist, at 7P. M. The plan, we believe, is to
confine this school entirely to t males from about I
fourteen years old and upwards, who are enough
desirous to learn, to attend such a school, and to ;
discipline themselves while in attendance.
These institutions have been productive of]
much good in other cities, and we hope Colum- j
bus may be largely benefited by the successful j
operation of the one in contemplation.
Fatal Accident.—We regret to learn, says the j
TnSkegee Republican, that on last Friday morn- ]
ing, as Albert Johnson was engaged in perform- \
ing his duties as engineer at Mr. Bryan’s Steam!
Mill, he wa9 killed by the bursting of a mill stone i
He leaves a bereaved family to mourn his un
timely death. He was a young man and highly <;
esteemed by his conipan ions.
Negro Bitten by a Rattlesnake.—Some j
days since a negro man, belonging to Mr. If Dean j
of Harris county, while picking cotton, was bitten i
by a rattlesnake. Two slight incisions were die- \
cernable on the outside of his right foot. By a i
liberal administration .of Peach Brandy, which
fortunately, Mr. Dean had been distilling, the poi- j
son was counteracted- The negro, we are happy \
to state, is now well. Two snake?, bearing five
rattles each, were killed near the spot where the j
negro was bitten.
Pulaski Times.—This is the title of anew pa- ;
per just commenced at liawkinsvilie, Pulaski
County. It is edited by Horn & Scarborough,
and is neutral in polities. VVe hope it will meet
with more success than the “Georgia Herald.”—
It is a neat looking paper, and will doubtless do
well.
fKT-We invite our readers to the perusal ol DR. j
AYER’S advertisements which appear in the ‘
coiumu9 of our paper. They deserve ‘attention as !
treating of what interests 119 all, and from a source j
which ali have long respected. The Doctor is ]
well-known as one of the leading of this -
country, who devotes his great acquirements jto ;
the discovery and manufacture of remedies for i
popular use. The uDparalelled success which has \
followed his labors is too well known in this com- j
mnity to need any elucidation from our pen— ;

SV A.J. H. DUGANNF-.
O h Jehovah! oh Elohim! be the glory all thy
own! |
Fori the stars, i n marvellous courses, are but Voi* |
ces frm thy Throne! j
And the zones of mortal dwelling, and the ocean, j
as they roll,
All obey Thee—all {adore Thee —Master of the ;
immortal soul!
Thine the Chart tho Chaldean pondered, ’mid j
his orient skies unfurled,
Thee the tortured Galileo poised above his mov- j
ing world.
Thee Copernicrus,enraptured,magnified with dy- j
ing praise,
And adoring Newton saw Thee—Ancient ofCre- i
ation’s Days.
Thine the name—Oil, Lord of Wisdom—Thine
the Word of Life divine!
First, in mystic joy and trembling, matrized by
the German Trine,
While the souls of monldeted ages, in their old
imperial dress,
Walked in grand transfiguration, through the por
tals of the Press!
Lo! the sunbeam lymus our features: Fire and Air
we yoke to toil;
Yea,the lightuing from the footstool we have
chained in hurtless coil !
Thou, Oh God, o’er Franklin bending, gave to
him the electric flame
And, with cloven tongues exultant, Morse declar*
ed thy Holy Name!
Scrolled beneath the sundered ocean, scored by
lightning’s awful pen;
“Glory unto God, the Highest! Peace on Earth,
Good Will to Men!”
Land to land, in mingling currents, sways and
thrills with loving fear;
“Where art thou?” the Old World whispers, and
the New World murmurs “Here!”
Here the elastic heart of Nations—here the eternal
core of Right,
Radiant from their burning centre, flash the veins
of Freedom’s right;
Girt with all the world’s great waters, circled by
all the lands;
Marked by sacred Line and Plummist, God our
destiny commands.
Fattier, God! we faint, we falter! Lord of ele
mental powers,
Grant us that, with God like wisdom, child like
humbleness be ours!
Thou hast made mankind vicegerent o’er the
realms of mind supreme:
Be our hearts Thine earthly altars—be thy won
drous love our theme!
Threatened Appeal of the Venezu
elans to the United States.— The bio
cade Raised. —A letter dated Puerto Cabello,
Aug. IC, says :
‘•The blocade of this port, with that of
Laguayra by the combined naval forces of
France and England, had to be raised after
one day's embargo. The authorities were
not bullied by the menaces of France and
England, and demanded their non interfer
ence instauter, or an appeal to the United
States would be made immediately to che&k
such impertinence. General Sereno re
marked that if China an India'succumbed
to such intrusions that is no reason why
Venezulans shonld follow on their track.—
This address to the English and French
admirals had an astounding effect, and the
[consequence was the embargo was raised
at once. The country, under the provisional
government, is going on well.”
i Paris on Sunday.—Rev. D. C. Eddy,!
now ip Pans, writes :
‘‘One can hardly find Sunday in Paris ; I
the streets are thronged ; the shops open ; :
regiments 01 soldiers marching in the streets; !
and a high festival being had by the work
ing people.”

COTTON.—There was quite a demand for cot- j
1 ton yoeterday and the transactions would have been j
heavier but for the inclemency of the weather.
| The receipts are much larger than atUhis period
1 last year, or any year since 1855. The market j
was brisk with an upward tendency.
This isowing to the general belief that the cot
ton crop in some secti ons in the South has been i
greatly damaged by the floods—that the rust has !
i injured it in a great measure parts, and
the favorable news from Europe that war had !
ceased with China and the India difficulties were
settled with England. All these facts have a bear* j
ing upon the cotton market at this time.
Holders yesterday demanded and received an ad
vance of fully l on previous day’s prices. 553
bales were sold at the following quotations : 24 at

FFEEDUMFROII FEYER AND AGUE.
TSIUMPHAIXrT SUCCESS!
THE
GRENADA ELIXIR,
OR
I
South American Antidote for Malarial
Is a sure Cure urul Perfect Route to Ague
and Fever, Chill and Fever, Dumb Asue ,
and all Bilious Affections !
IT has been thoroughly tested in thousands of
cases, some of years’ standing, where Quinine
| and all the most popular remedies of the day had
j failed, but the Elixir has met with the most tri
| umphant success; never failed to cure the most
j obstinate cases. The unanimous testimony of all
) who have used or witnessed its operations, declare
I it to be ihe most extraordinary medicine everdis
| covered for the quick and permanent cure of Fe
| ver and Ague. It operates as a gentle Tonic and
| stimulant, gradually but surely; eradicates every
vestige of disease, and restores the system to health
and vigor. It imparts new vitality to the blood,
and will soon induce the glow of health to return
to the pale and swarthy complexion.
The advantage of this medicine therefore is, that
a cure must be radical and complete ; not simply
j breaking the Chill, by producing a “new impres
sion” upon the nervous system, without reference
to the operations of the malarious poison, which
is allowed to remain unchanged and renew its at
tacks, immediately alter the nervous system has
ceased to leel the artificial disease-induced by
Quinine and many other preparations generally
resorted The GRENADA ELIXIR acts di
rectly upon the Liver, Stomach, Kidneys, Pores
of ihe Skin, and produces a radical cure.
It contains no ingredient the least injurious to
the system, and can be given to an infant with
perfect safety. It is warranted to cure every case
when taken as directed.
Ail who need such a medicine, will do well to
try the Grenada Elixir. It is not only the best but
the must economical medicine ever introduced for
Fever and Ague and is a Southern Remedy.

i LRN LI 1 ERARN MESSENGER, commencing :
! with the January Number, the Proprietors beg to
assure the public that no exertions will be remit
i ted on their part to maintain the high character of
j the work, and to challenge the patronage of all
J who value sterling literary merit. For “twenty.
| three Y ears, the Messenger has endeavored to re- ]
fleet faithfully the Southern mind, while disdain- !
ingall narrow and sectional views, and has b*en
alone among the monthly periodicals of America
in defence of the Peculiar Institutions of the
Southern Country. To this office it will be de
voted, and will be prompt to repel assaults upon
the South, whether they come under the specious
i garb ot fiction, or in the direct form of anti-slavery
pamphlets. At this critical juncture, while our
enemies are employing literaiure as their most po
tent weapon of aitack, the Southern people will
surely not withhold their encouragement from a
work whose aim it shall be to strike blows in their
i defence.
1 The MESSENGER will, as heretofore, present
) its readers with Reviews,Historical and Biograph
ical Skt-tches, Novels, Tales, Travels, Essays,
Poems, Critiques, and Papers on the Array, Navy’
and other National Subjects.
