> DAILY THIKS. MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 Our Telegraphic Arrangements. We have the satisfaction to announce to our readers that we have contracted with the As* soeiated Press to furnish us with the latest Tele graphic intelligence. It is unnecessary to remark upon the absolute reliability of the information to be derived from this souice. The readers of the Times will henceforth be put in possession of commercial, political and general news, simulta neously with its reception in Augusta, Savannah, and other Southern cities. To Correspondents. Ours is emphatically a communicative age. No sooner does a man feel possessed of an idea than he is seized with a desire, an impulse to give it form and development in the outward life ol the world. Partly from egotism, partly from an earn est and generous desire to advance the interests ol truth, he thinks of nothing but how he may induce hie fellows to adopt the theory or practice of his supposed discovery. It is a noble passion. To t, perhaps, is the world fhdebted for all that is good or great. The mighty reformers in politics, science aud religiou felt its inspiration and were impelled by its irresistible promptings. In our day, the press is the power by which change and retorma tion in manners, opinions and life are wrought, or, rather, it is the medium through which such results are reached. It is not strange that its privileges are sometimes abused. Many mistake error for truth ; others imagine that they have discovered anew truth when, in fact, they have only manu factured anew dross for an idea older than them selves, while not a fow magnify and elaborate nothing. The reader, doubtless, is becoming curious to know the application wc intend to make ol these generalities. Well, we designed them merely as an introduction to what we have to 9ay to our correspondents. We shall always be glad to hear from them, provided they will coniine themselves to the discussion of interest ins subjects and, also, that their communications are short. Truth should be the aim and object ol all who address the pub lic, and, the world of opinion differing in this re spect from the world of matter, the shortest route is always the best. We are the conductors of a news-paper and should render ourselves justly ob noxious to censure, were we to admit into our columns long dissertations on hackneyed themes to the exclusion of interesting matter, such as the facilities of the present day furnish us. With these conditions, which, we conceive ou/ duty to our readers requires us to observe, we cheerfully in vite our correspondents to send forward their con tributions. Ireland as it was and as it is. No reader of the history of Ireland for the last thirty years, can lail to perceive the great change which bas taken place i:t her social, moral and political condition. Contrast her present prospe rity with her past degradation, and we have Ame rica as it is now, blooming and blossoming as the rose, her valleys yielding rich produce, her hills made low, her people feasting on the fruits of in dustry, and enjoying the sweets of liberty com pared with a desert island, roamed over and in habited by an ignorant, barbarous people incapa ble ol advancing in the arts, sciences or agricultu ral pursuits. Ireland to day is dressed in a different garb from the one she wore yesterday. It is the raiment of the tagg.tr, the down-trodden, the op ■ preyed, changed to the dress of the landlord, the up-risen, the free. Not only has she made rapid strides in scientific discoveries and mechani cal improvements, hut there has been a maiked change in the customs and institutions of the Country—a social regeneration ol the whole race. Peace and plenty now smile where before was strife and poverty. Industry rejeives its reward where labor was robed of its fruit. Indeed old Ireland i9 not now to be seen, except through the jealousy of the rival creeds, which separates the Papins from the Aristocracy, The embers ofthase ancient tires are sometimes stirred up, which threaten much evil and retard the progress ol Ireland. The anniversary of the Seige of Derry—the commemoration of the event which banished their Sovereign—proscribed their religion and destroyed their property,awakens reminiscences too painful to contemplate and too offensive to tolerate in the minds of the Papists. Then should the advice of Lord Eglinloun be received and this event be no longer commemorated, the flowing of the “bitter waters of Marah” would cease and Ireland would increase in prosperity and influence. No wonder riot and blood shed were the result ol a false system aud a picture of Irish society thirty years ago. The tenant, with no stimulant to exertion, cultivated the lands as the only means oflivlihood and was necessarily rack-rented out of all proportion and power. lie paid besides bis rent, tithes to a Clergy whom he dispised with a warm hatred and which only feed the flames of an odious persecution. Then it is a matter of no surprise that he combined against his landlord, and was driven by unjust exactions to despera tion and madness. At that time three wars raged in the Country—the political, the religious and the predial. Misery, uncertainty of life and other concomitant evils followed it, which are now only forgotten in the joyousness of present prosperity. Among the causes which may have contributed to the social disorders of the island at this period may be numbered the demands made by the Irish, which they considesed just aud equitable, and which were denied them—the failure and blow of the potato system, which drove into banishment, the starving peasanty and ousted the landlords— the gold discoveries wnich afforded an opportunity for labor-the number of railroads being construc ted throughout the United States, ottering prizes for honest industry and which increased the emmi gration. Whatcver.however.be the cause of the past degadation and present prosperity of Ireland, it is a glorious conception that two men of diflerent parties—an Irish Viceroy and an ex-Premier— Lord Eglintoun and Lord Palmerston should unite j their voices in proclaiming her peace, happiness j and prosperity. May she continue to prosper until wo behold the j dawn of that bright, day. when the epitaph of | Emmet will be written— when justice will be ‘ done bis memory—when hie motives will be vin dicated and when hi 9 “ Country takes her position among the nations of the earth.” Homicide.— JohnS. Rawls, an old manw formerly resided in this place, says the Pulaski Times, went to the Carriage Shop of Mr. S. F, Brown, on last Friday evening, and a difficulty ensued between him and Mr. Brown, the propri etor. Mr. Rawls received a blow on the head, which resulted in his death on Monday morning. We forbear any comments on ihis sad affair, which has brought distress to the friends of both b e dead and living. Governorship op Nebraska Territory.— Gov. Richardson, of Illinois, has resigned the Gov ernorship of Nebraska Territory, and a deputa tion is now, it is said, on its way to Washington city, to ask the Executive to appoint Col. John A Parker, of Henrico county, Va., to fill the va cancy. Col. P. was formerly register of the land office in Nebraska. Wire for the Atlantic Cable.— The Boston Atlas says; It is generally supposed that the At lantic cable was made entirely in England. Such is not the case Very many miles of the wire were manufactured in Providence, at a factory in the upper portion of the city. One thousand tons of iron per day were consumed in the work, and its superiority over that made in England is well understood by the Cable Company. It is worthy of note that no portion of the wire made in this country parted while being laid. tsr The controversy between Parson Brown low and Payne on the Slavery Question, was commenced at Philadelphia on Tuesday last.— The former was laboring under such a stvere at tack of bronchitis, that it was supposed someone would have to read his lectures for him. FOR THE TIMES. Harris County Crops ► Sept. lOtii, 1858. Messrs. Editors The corn crop in this coun ty is excellent. The cotton crop is also good, but not quite so bearing as the farmers were in clined to think a short time since. The squares and smaller bolls having dropped off very much. R. [for the times] Legum Memorabilia—No. 3. So play the foolish throngs with one that swoons, Come all to help him, and so stop the air, By which he should revive.— Men, for Men. Much has been said and written concern ing the March of mind, and diffusion of knowledge. Vet despite pur boasting, to our ancestors must be conceded the credit of having been more specific in laws, and restringent in morals than their descendants of the present day. For example, the following statute with respect to “profane swearing.” Which though unrepealed; at least such is our in formation ; lias long since ceased to be of force and effect *“ If any public officer shall take a profane oath he shall forfeit five shillings, and any other person not being a public officer two shillings and sixpence, recoverable by distress and sale. In default of distress the offender being above sixteen years, shall be set in the stocks for one hour, for any sin gle offence; and if for more than one (if convicted at the same time) two hours. Il under sixteen years and shall not immedi ately pay, lid shall be whipt by the Consta ble, by warrant of the Justice, or by the parent, guardian or master, in the presence of the Constable. Act State of Geo. 1780.” Without discussing the wisdom of such law; which has the sanction of the great Athenian“Lavv-giver,” who decreed that the citizens of Athens should not revile one an other ; we cannot but commend its brief and forcible diction. In a Democratic govern me; t the expression of the law should be concise and simple. It is the province of tyranny to render laws unintelligible. And we are prone to condemn the unmeaning tautology, and incongruous provisions, found in very many Acts of modern legislation. “ There is” says a distinguished English Jurist—“apparently a notion among ama teurs, that legislative language must be in tricate and barbarous. Certain antique phrases are apparently, thought by them to be essential to law writing. A readiness in the use of “ nevertheless” “ provided always” “and it shall and may be lawful” “ and he is hereby authorized, empowered and required to” “ any Act or Acts to the contrary notwithstanding” &c., &c. Seems to be admitted to constitute the qualification for drawing Acts of Parliament. The merit appears to mount higher in ! proportion as the author can succeed in including a greater number of limitations and qualifications, conditions and provisoes between the nominative case and the verb, or any other pair of dependant words ” This notion if is that has caused in a great measure our Lex Scripta to become so voluminous, not only in Legislative enactments, but decisions of the Supreme Courts ; whose duty, and an onerous one, it is to extricate the intent of the Legislators from such a labyrinth of verbiage. Among the ancients there was a custom : when heroes were buried, for the soldiers, j to cast each his shield-full of earth upon the grave. Raising thereby, an earthen monu ment, so that any one might see the sepul chre, but no man might disinter the body. Now it transpires, not unfrequently, that I a time honored statute, that has done much ‘ service in its primitive simplicity, is laid before our Legislative Assemblies. Then amid much ceremony, much preamble, many Acts supplementary, Amendments, and Provisoes, which it has become custo mary for each Legislator to contribute, we look in vain lor the once active and sym- ; ineterical form, ami find instead a dull heap | of senseless matter. REX. * Hence, we conjecture, may be traced certain profane phrases which have come down to the present. Such as “ not worth ad n” “not worth a curse'’ etc.— which expressions being used in reference to a public tunctionary intimated that he was not worth a dollar and a quarter ; if in referring to any other individual, that he was not worth sixty-two and a half cents. — Which, then as now, was considered a very small estimate of humanity. R. The Captured Africans. We find the following card in the Sav. Morning News of 9th inst. Mr. Editor:—l see in your issue of this morning that ‘ the American Colonization Society has offered to take the captured Africans on landing in Liberia, and for fif ty thousaud dollars, keep them for one year and learn (teach?) them industrial pur : suits.” Now I desire to make this propo sition to the government: I will take them and give fitty thousand dollars for the privilege, and will guarantee to teach them : “industrial pursuits” without any charge and keep them for a term of years. Which proposition will the government accept?— They are much in want of money, but equally in need of‘popularity North, and I am inclined to think they will favor the Society that Judge Lumpkin of our Supreme Court has denounced as a swindle. We shall soon see. C. A. L LAMAR. A Philosopher in Defeat. In the late election in Arkansas for members of Congress. Mr. James A. Jones was a candidate for Representative, in opposition to Mr. Rust. Jones was slightly defeated—say some six or sev en thousaud majority ; and upon ascertaining the result, came out in his paper, the Ouachita Herald as follows: DEFEATED, OR UP SALT RIVER. “We cave.”— Muggins. “Not in vain should such examples be.”— Byron. We—that is to say, James A Jjnes, edi tor of the Ouachita Herald, and late can didate for Congress—are ingloriously de feated. To use a classical, and entirely original expression, “we have met the ene my and we are theirs.” We evidently cast our pearls before swine. We magnani mously, and at a considerable sacrifice of our habitual self-respect, offered to serve a people who had no appreciation of the offering. We can’t help it. We didn’t make the people, and are not under con tract to supply them with brains. If they were wilfully blind to our merit, the fault is theirs. If they are opposed to receiving individually a hundred and sixty acres of land a piece, they have a perfect right to reject it—they ought to know whether or not (hey deserve it. If they don’t want the rights of the South “preserved inviolate,” why they may have them pickled for all we care. We did our duty, and our conscience is easy. At the enormous expense of sixteen dollars and thirty-two cents we printed a multitude of circulars-sufficient, we thought to elect any man—with which we flooded this Congressional District, and a large portion of the Cherokee Nation. We wrote to our friends, to rally to our support. But they didn’t r-diy, We then concealed our selves as wcil as we could at home, refusing positively to extend our acquaintance, or to see more of the public than the public did of us. With these precautions, we deem ed success certain. A great many persons wrote us that we should get an overwhelm ing vote —they were not deceit ed, it was overwhelming. Many credulous persons told us that we should he elected ; we lis tened to them and were deceived. But we forgive them, for they made us feel very comfortable—for a while; and all earthly happiness is transitory. We shall never become a candidate again w ithout consult ing somebody on the subject first, and as certaining whether they do or do not desire us to run ; for we are satisfied that it is folly to he a candidate, unlees somebody does want you to run, and will vote for you on the strength of that desire. We are not without consolation. We are not the only candidate that was defeat ed. There are numbers in as bad a fix as ourself. Besides, greater men than we claim to have been as badly beaten. Gen. Harrison, afterwards President of the Uni ted States, was once defeated for County Clerk in Ohio, and James K. Polk was beai en for Governor of Tennessee. We arc in good company and shall, therefore, not complain. There is one thing foi which the people should be grateful to us. We did not bore them with long and tiresome speeches as some ol the aspirants did. We remained “quietly at home,” and they so highly ap preciated our modesty that they have given us the privilege of continuing to do so. We are thankful for small favors. Among our numerous friends, ex-Gov. Drew is entitled to our warmest acknowl edgments. His intention, doubtless, was to assist us in beating Rust, by procuring a large aud influential majority of the Democratic party to vote for him. With this object in view he made a brilliant can vass, ending in a no less brilliant failure. But, notwithstanding he carried off a con siderable portion of our vote, w T e honor him for his laudable intentions. Hereafter he has but to command us, and we will obey—if it suits us to do so. To the fifteen patriotic and chivalrous ! voters, who cast their suffrage for us in Pike county, we beg leave to tender our sincere and unfeigned gratitude. We owe them a debt that would be difficult to repay. Asa slight evidence of our high apprecia tion and lasting regard, we propose that if they will forward us a list of their names, we will send them the Herald for life—at the usual price, $3 per annum, invariably in advance. In conclusion, we desire permission to re mark, that the small experiment we have just made is eminently satisfactory. What ever aspirations we may have had for glory are entirely subdued. The pursuit ol’ a seat in Congress “under difficulties” is one in which we have no desire to re-engage. We are satisfied that we carry with us into our retirement the best wishes of a gener ous though ungrateful people, ami are content. Crops. On this subject, a writer in the Augusta Chronicle & Sentinel, from Cuthbert, Ga., says: The cotton crop in this and adjacent counties, so far as my observation [and en quiry has extended, is about equal to two thirds of a full crop. Some planters esti mate the decrease in their crops at one half; others a fourth, but generally at a third. Four weeks ago the prospect for a large crop was as good as could have been wished. The abundant tains had produced a fine, large, and apparently healthy weed full of bolls, squares and blooms. About that time the rust began to make its appea rance, accompanied with other disasters, and now the lovers of thrift and plenty will have to wait until another season, more abundant than this, before they can feast theireyeson that most gratifying sight a snow white cotton field. The corn crop is an abundant one. Peas and potatoes are very promising. The Columbus [Miss.] Democrat says— The Cotton crop, we regret to state was never so unpromising in this section as it is now. From personal observation, and information from the planters themselves, we think we can safely say that not more than half a “crop will be realized in the lower portion of this county and the north ern Tpart of Noxubee. One gentleman in the latter county informed us that he plain ed for sixty bales but now he did not ex pect to make more than twenty. The boll worm is making sad ravages, particularly in the prairies, and we believe no section is free from them. A correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune, writing from Yazoo county Mississippi, says that the most sanguine do not now count upon more than two thirds of a crop in the hills. The crop in the bottom he estimates at an average one, deducting the loss from overflow, which for that county he estimates at „7,000 to 10,000 bales. The hill crop has suffered from boll i worms and drought, the bottom crops from worms and rust. Take Them to Boston.— -The Southside (Va.) Democrat suggests that the best plan to get clear of the captured Africans is to take (hem to Boston. “ There can be little doubt,” says the Democrat, “ that they would teach a valuable lesson, in two or three ways. They would absorb sometfhat of that surplus philanthropy which finds itself without objects at home, and cruis es about after the “ poor negro” in the ’ South. “ This would relieve the Government, while it could not be objected to on the part of Boston, except that such a lump of bles sing’s might too much exhilerate her sober people.” To clear a room of mosquitoes, an exchange gives the lollowing recipe : Virtues of Saltpetre. —One way to run musquitoes off’ the premises is to set fire to a ball of damp powder in the cham bers of the house, and close up every place of exit tight. The vexatious insects will soon get sick of it and attempt to slope. In half an hour turn them out, air the room well, and then close the blinds and doors. When retiring, the door should be kept closed as long as the light is burning, alter which it may be opened, and you may sleep coolly and undisturbed till morning. srsF“Miamio, the da ighterof Enoch was five hundred and eight years of age when 1 she married.

Mr. Davis was one of the oldest citizens of the county, having settled hero in the year 1828. He was truly a good man. A devoted husband, an affectionate father, a kind and humane master, a generous and obliging neighbor. The writer has been his friend for thirty yea is, and can truthfully say that no man was better loved or more respeo- : ted by all who knew him. But above all, he was a Christian, and exemplified in his daily li'e, the maxims and teachings of his Divine Master, lie had been a member of the Methodist Church for a number of years, and in conversation on the evening preceding the day of his death, ho ex pressed an unfaltering trust in the merits of the blood of Christ. Calmly he walked through the valley of the shadow of death, sustained by the Redeemer’s staff’, and encouraged by his sweet promises. He leaves a devoted wild and seven children to mourn their loss. May the Lord sus tain and comfort the afflicted widow, and may all the children give their hearts and lives to Chiistand His cause, that their death rnay bo the death of the righteous, is the sincere prayer of their friend. “How blest the righteous when he dies!
