THE DAILY TIMES. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, Death of Dred Scott. This distinguished colored individual departed this life ai St Louis, Mo, on the 17th inst. For the last lour years he has enjoyed a notoriety unequafed, perhaps by any member of his race- His denund of, and effort to obiairi his freedom, formed the subject of that great decision by the Supreme Court of the United States, uhich declar ed the political equality of the South, and the North, and their equal right to enjoy with their peculiar p.operty, the territories of the Union re pudiating the doctrine of “squatter sovereigns or the power of a territorial legislature to afieet the slaveholder in his right of property or in the securiiy of its enjoyment. 1* or this judicial guar antee, although fanaticism is Dot likely to regard it, we are indebted to the case ol Dred £>cott. W e are, therefore, glad that he has lived. Yellow Fever. The yellow fever has been in progress in New Orleans for twelve weeks. During that time the report of the Sexton shows that 4,583 deaths oc curred, of this number 2,660 .resulted from yellow fever. From the first week of the lever to the pres ent, it has increased. For the week ending Sept. 19th, there were 474 deaths, the largest number re corded during the summer, Tn Mobile the disease has averaged at least three deaths a day since the commencement of the fever. In Charleston there were 103 deaths we~-k bafore last of the disease, and 128 last week. Savannah ha 9 only suffered f rom the epidemic for a week or ten days. Last week, there were forty deaths in Savannah, twen ty of which died of yellow fever. During tho present week the disease has abated, if it has net disappeared altogether. Galveston has been also a victim to this terrible epidemic. Interments for the Week. The official report, says the Savannah News, of the Board of Health of the interments for the weekending on Tuesday evening, ihe 21st insL, will he found in another column. It shows an increase of fivo over the report of last week, in cluding 20 deaths by yellow fever. We have ; before stated that rho very had weather previous to j Wednesdy, the 15th inet., had been productive of much sickness- Most of the deaths recorded in the present report are of persons who were at tacked during the previous week For several days past we have heard of very few new cases of lever, and if the present favorable weather contin ues, we shall confidently expect a still greater abatement of the sickness and mortality. On Tuesday there were six interment in the two cemeteries —only one death being from yellow fever. On yesterday there were five interments in Laurel Grove Cemetery—three whites and two black children—and one in the Cathedral Ceme tery, none of which were from yellow fever. Delegates.

Ratified. —The Kentucky Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church at their recent ses sion, ratiiied by a vote of 36 against 24, the action ol the General Conference in Nashville, in ex punging the rule against the “buying and selling of men, women and children,” Diversion of Trade by Quarantine Exac tions.—The New York Herald says: “We learn from a large importing house in this city, in the West India trade, that they had stopped the ship ment of sugars from Porto Rico direct to this port, and had sent cargoes to New Haven, and were at present receiving them in New York bvschoou ere navigating Long Island Sound, with a mate rial saving of expense. •SPA large meeting of the “Solid men” ot Richmond County, New York, was held at the town ot Richmond on the 20th Sept. inst. at which resolutions were passed commending the conduct of the mbb in the late Staten Islaud tragedy. In flammatory speeches were delivered denouncing in unmeasured terms the conduct ot Gov.

Herndon, M. D., Sec y, < Crops, Weather and Politics- Doughf.kty.Co., Sept. 23d. Mes>hs*. Editors-—lt is agreed on all sides that J the cotton crop hi year # wii not be a full one.— The boll-worm and rust and bad weather have j disappointed the hopes of the most sanguine ol a large yield. The weather is now cool and pleasant and the cotton ts being picked out rapidly. The j article will be sold at present prices and not stored. The counties in this Judicial Circuit are nomi- j nating delegates to the convenrion. In Baker, a candidate was nominated by the Detnocr tie Con- ; vention to fill the unexphed term of the Represen- j i tatve in the Legislature, Rev. Mr. Cumbie, who was cut off in the new County of Mitchell. The democracy would have no one else than Hon Allred H. Colquitt, ex member of Congress from this District. Though retired from public lile—having declined a re-election to Congress alter a splendid victory—and living in quiet upon his larm, his services were called into lequisilton by his old constituents in so flattering a manner that he could not ignore their wishes. Besides the har mony restored and reconciliation of conflicting claims effected in thS Democratic ranks by the use ol his name, Maj. Colquitt could not be unmind fnl of the enthudasm of old Baker for his election to Congress and the unprecedented majority of six hundred, votes she gave him in that race. All honor to Baker for her selection! We believe in the plan of sending our best men to the Legisla ture to make laws for us. : L. Weather—Health —Crops.—The past j week we have had cool nights,and pleasant : during the day-the weather dry—health and ; crops continue good, and our streets pres \ ent a business like appearance. — Albany Patriot, <in Bank or Columbus. —This sterling in stitution has appointed Mr. John M. Potter its agent at this place. Our merchants will now have facilities to purchase cotton at all times. Bainbridge is the best cotton market in this section of the country —Albany and Tallahassee not excepted.— Bainbridge Georgian. Education. A number of our cotemporaries have re vived this subject, and are laboring assid ously to excite public interest in it. It is astonishing how much wind work is re quired before any great measure of public utility can be brought to a practical deter mination at the South. The press and a few patriotic menjin our state have, for \ ears, striven to impress the minds of the people and their legislators with the importance of some more extended and useful system of education, and yet, nothing has been done. Teachers’ Associations have been formed, convened a lew times, and died out, with out accomplishing anything. The State Legislature has had the matter under con sideration lor years without coining to any definite conclusion. Yet there is not a man or woman of ordinary intelligence in the country, but recognises the advantages that would accrue to our section, socially, mor all and politically, from a more general dis semination of knowledge. Argument upon this subject is wasted —none is needed to convince the people of a self-evident truth, and the only question that can arise, it seems to us, is, what plan of education can be made practicable that will prove most effi cacious for general good. We have no sug gestion to make ourself, but have copied an article upon the suoject from the Columbus Times , whose editor favors a f?tate Univer sity as most likely to subserve the educa tional wants of the times. What we most deplore, in connection with this subject, (and indeed with all sub jects of great public utility,) is the necessity f >r so rn mb talking and writing in advance of any action by either the people or their legislators. It is fair to infer, that what any other people have done, our people can do. In other sections of the country there are facilities for popular education far superior to any thing at the South, and it is a dis paraging reflection that we should linger behind in the high and holy work. There has already been too much time consumed in discussing plans, in reiterating argu ments, in speculating upon effects. Action is what we need. Perhaps it would be well for the Governor to invite the opinions of some of our most eminent teachers and scholars as to the most feasible plan for ac complishing a system of general education throughout the State, those opinions to be embodied it) a report to the next Legisla ture, with a request for its immediate con sideration of the same, preparatory to def inite action. We throw out the suggestion for what it is worth. —Griffin Independent South. Santa Anna Revolutionizing St. Do mingo. New York, Sept. 20. —The steamship Black Warrior has arrived at this port with dates from Havana of the loth inst. Advices from St. Domingo had been re ceived, stating that Santa Anna had attack ed and taken Santiago Fort. The fort was i taken on ‘lie first of Sept., upon which Val -1 verde and the Collector of Santiago fled to Monte Christo, abandoning the government I of St. Domingo. Ail business is suspended, and the stores in the city are closed. All paper money is repudiated as worth less. Later from Utah. St. Louis, Sept. ISth.—Leavenworth ad vices of the 15th inst., are received. A number of officers from Utah, arrived there on that day, among them Col. Alexander and Lieut. Cover and Manadier, of the 10th Infantry, and Capt. Marcy, of the sth In fantry. The general impression was that further trouble was to be expected from the Mor mons, that the difficulties had only been postponed not settled. A train of twenty wagons leave hereto-, morrow for Pikes Park, and Mr. 11. Rus- j sell will start a train of forty wagons in a few days. Gentlemen are also here from Leavenworth and Wyandotte, outfitting for the companies in these places. Pensacola Rail Road.—The Gazette, of the 18th inst., says : We are pleased to witness the steady progress of our Railroad at the Pensacola end. Ten miles of the track are now com- j pleted, with freight and passenger trains making semi-daily trips. Anew era has; dawned upon the old city of Pensacola. — ; The snort of the iron horse has waked up j our heretofore slumbering population, and j an active business aspect has been impart- j ed to the city never witnessed before. Tii-Weekly Southern Recorder. The Editors of the Southern Recorder propose to-publish during the session of the Legislature, a Tri-Weekly paper under the above name, of medium size, to contain a synopsis ofthe debates, bills and all other matters of importance that shail come before the Legirlature—thus affording an early, impartial and complete account of the pro ceedings of that body. To effect this in a proper manner, we will be necessitated to keep gi.od Reporters, with a ready pen, in each branch of the Legislature, to give mat ters as they come up. This and other 1 things will be attended with no little ex pense, but if a sufficient number of subscri bers shah send us their names by the 20th i of October next, the paper will be issued, and on the receipt of the first No. the sub ; scription, one dollar, will have to be paid. Strict attention will be given to the latest “Telegraphic, Cotton and other news. R. M. OR ME & CO. Milledgeville, Sent. 10, 1858. Health of Albany. —lt is gratifyii £ to us that we are able to state that this city was never more healthy than it has been | during the past twelve months—and even the summer months, which has been regard ed as the sickliest, has passed without re- I cording a dozen cases of mortality.— Al bany Patriot, Sept. 23. The Case of the Slave Brig Putnam. j —Boston, Sept. 20th, 1858.—The second j examination of Townsend, the alleged mas ter of the slave brig Putnam is assigned for to morrow before U. S. Commissioner Loring. It is rumored that the defence will be that Townsend was only a passen ger, and that the ;uui captain of the brig is i a Spaniard, now imprisoned as one of the crew tn Cir Heston. Mrs. Townsend has visited het husband in jail, and it is said j that several well known parties in New York have been anxious to have an inter view with him. Pataula Circuit. —Hon. J. A. Tucker, of Lumpkin, has received the Democratic nomination for Judge of this Circuit. Asa Lawyer end a man, Cul. Tucker has high claims and qualifications to the honorable office, to which lie aspires.— Georgia (Ma ce n) Citizen. The Weather. We are glad to learn that the weather is highly favorable to the crops, but should an accident hap pen in the shape,*)!’ violent storms, Idight, or some noxious insect, our hopes would be blasted. There is no insect or blighting accident likely to reach so firmly established an institution as the Lottery of S Swan $ Cos, of Augusta,Georgia. If you mail them $lO, $5, or s2i , and obtain a ticket, it may chance to pay you an enormous profit in the shape ot a prize. That they are a lavorite “ crop” to cultivate is obvious, from the great popularity of their establishment. It—B6. MARRIED. In this city, on the 23d instant, bv the Rev. W. W. Robison, Mr. James P.

HAIR RESTORA TIVE. Old and young are now indiscriminately using Prof. Wood’s flair Restorative; some as a cosmetic or beauufier of the complexion, some to pieventtne ri-m ailing, someas a mere dressing of the inn- ar.d others to make it grow and to change gray hair to its original color; and there is no doubt of its answering all tho purposes tor which it was designed by its illustrious inventor. We ore utterly averse to incurring editorial re sponsibility in trifling matters, but as we deem it no trifling matter to have the hair on a gentle man’s head (when prematurely tailing off ) actu ally and permanently restored, so neither down consider it unworthy the editorial profession to recommend a Hair Restorative that will effect this very thing. Wood’s celebrated Hair Resto rative is the article we have in view, and it the certificates of the most distinguished men in the country are entitled to credence is this preparation all that is claimed for it on tho part of its propri etor.
