WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBfR 29.
Death of Hon. S. A. Wales,
This distinguished citizen of Columbus, depart
ed this life yesterday. He was born in Connect!
cut and moved from that State to Georgia at au
early age. He was admitted to the bar and prac
tired law in Middle Georgia torty years ago.—
He represented Habersham county in the Georgia
Legislature when a young man, and Jasper and
Putnam counties in the year 1847. In 1855 he was
the Senator from Muscogee county. In 18o<, he
was elected one ol the Judges of the Inferior
Court of this county-which position he held at
the time ol his death- Asa man, Col. Wat.es
was known for his integrity and honor-as a citi
zen. for his public spirit— as a neighbor for his
hospitality— as a friend,for his devotion. He liv
ed to his sixtieth year, and leaves a family and a
1 arge circle of acquaintances who muura his loss.
Peace to his ashes!
Hews Summary.
The burning of the Ship Austria and the less o
five or six hundred persons at sea are the most
thrilling topics now of interest. The details of
this sad catastrophe will soon be published and we
will lay them before our readers. From the tel
egraphic intelligence in another Column, it will he
seen that no passengers escaped the awful confla
gration south oi Richmond.
The steady advance oi cotton by tho last
two Steamer’s news puts the price oi cotton up to
a high figure. The backset it received ny tue
Persia’s dates is fully compensated by the ad
vanced tone of the market since that period. The
market having closed in Liverpool with an up
ward tendency, in all probability the impetus given
to the trade on this side of the water will dispose
farmers to the suicidal policy ot holding back for
higher prices—Such, however, has not been the
case to this writing as the receipts of the cotton lor
this season will show.
The intelligence by the telegraph in relation to
the working of the Atlantic cable is ascertained
to be premature and many doubt if an instrument
can be made that will ensure the safe, transmiss-
ion of messages. M early a month has elapsed
since the signals ceased and in all human proba
bility tho wire E broken at some point. Experi
ments, however, are being made in Ragland,
though uuSteces !ul to this period. 1 lie work
may yet be accomplished by some \ ankeo after
the failure of all the English men of science and
learning.
The yellow fever is still an epidemic in Now
Orleans, its death-scythe mowing down some fifty
persons a day—Mobile, Gal vfston,Charleston and
Savaunah are also infected with the disease. The
latter place numbers only one or more deaths a day
from tho contagion and no apprehensions are felt
by tire citizens as to its spreading or becoming epi
demic.
There is no political excitement now in the
Southern States. In New York, there are three
tickets in the field—the Republican—democratic
and American—Fremont carried the Stale by forty
thousand votes at the last Presidential election over
the Democratic party and twice forty over the
American— Notwithstanding this Republican tri
umph, it is believed that the recent failure ot the
Republican and American parties to coalesce will
insure the success ot the democralie ticket- In
Virginia, the democracy are discussing the claims
of different aspirants before the Gubernatorial Con
vention soon to assemble.
In Illinois, the fight has been a hard one, but

cile Administration Democrats to his late opposi
tion to the Democratic party.
The Cotton Crop.
The comins? cotton crop may safely ba estima
ed at 3,500,000 bales, the mi iimum estimate, if
early and extensive frosts are experienced, being
3,200,000 bales, and the maximum if frost holds off
as late as last year, being 3,800,000 bales. It is
probable that some tactions will be affected by
frost, and therefore an estimate of 3,500,000 bales
is, perhaps, as near and approximation as can be
made at this time. — [Boston Trav.
Where the writer of the above paragraph got
the information upon which his estimates are
based wo cannot imagine, unless it be from the
Lowell manufacturer. The absolute unreliability
of his information is apparent to anyone upon the
slightest reflection. For instance, the differ
ence is made to depend upon the time of
the advent of frost. Now it is a notorious fact
that cotton stopped blooming at an earlier date
this season, than it has for many years. The
large allowance, then, that is made for the effect
of frost, must be based upon an ignorance of this
fact. 300,000 bales would be an extravagant cal
culation for the loss which would result from a
frost on the first of next month. Th e Travellers
maximum estimate may be realized (we do not be
lieve it will, by 600,0C3 bales ;) but if it be correct*
3,5C0,000 of it are made now and are beyond the
<%ach of disaster from its hoary enemy. Perhaps,
our posted cotemporary thinks that a certain
amount of cotton will be made whether the plant
blooms or n 't. Such a conclusion would not be
tray more ignorance than is constantly displayed
on this subject by Northern journals whose “wish
is father to the thought ”
Honey Plenty.
The Columbus papers of the 24th inst., report ;
the sale of 9,80 bales of cotton in that mar- j
ket the day previous. The quotations for the same |
day, were 11!®1L>, or about $57 per bale, which
would make the snug little sum of sss,Bi’*o. Think
of it: upwards of $55,030 turned loose in one day ‘
in the streets of Columbus. No wonder every
body has pleuty of money. Take cate that the
bright prospects ahead of us don’t turn our heads!
and precipitate us into another crisis. Money is
going to be abundant, every branch of business I
will pay well, every body will be impatient to
make a fortune, speculation will be rife, and the:
result in a few year will be a general crash. Let
us learn wisdom from the past, live within our
means, keep out of debt, and when the evil day
comes we shall be prepared for it.— (Eufaula) \

Another Daily in Columbus.
Columbus can now boast of three as neat and
well filled daily sheets as any city in Georgia.
The sprightly little “Sun” was the pioneer, and
we are pleased to learn that it has met with good
success—it is a neutral paper. The Times &
Sentinel recently dropped the last ‘’portion ot its
name,and came out as the “Daily Times,”—and
it is also meeting with good success—this is a
Democratic organ, and is conducted with much
ability. This morning we had the pleasure ol
receiving the first number of the “Enquirer,” got
up in daily form. It is a handsome L sheet, well
selected and t ably t edited, by our friend J.H.
Martin, who is an old bachelor, and sometimes
hassome amusing bouts with the ladies, but be
ing a gallant adversary, manages generally to
come off second best. The Enquirer is the organ
of the opposition, and is ably conducted VVe
wish them all the success their public spirit so
richly deserves. —Avgusta Dispatch.
Daily “Enquirer.” —We welcome to our ta
ble the Daily Columbus Enquirer, the first issue
of which made its appearance Friday afternoon
last. Wo wish [our friends every success with
their new experiment.
Columbus can now boast of three Daily papers,
one more than the city of Savannah. “Will they
pay the printer!’ is another question, which we
hope may he solved to the advantage of our co
temporaries — Sav. Republican•
Another Cable.— Tho Paris Presse speaks of
tho necessity which exists for France to lay down
a telegraph to the United States, if she wishes
to maintain undiminished, her present commercial
relations with the American continent. It de
clares France is now too dependent on England
for her communications with America.
Letters from Ex President Pierce, dated Gene
va, Sept. I,received at Concord, N. H., state tha
after visiting, Turin, Florence, &.C., he would
proceed to Rome, where he would spend the
winter. He was in excellent health, while Mrs.
Pierce was much better than when they left the
United State s.
Tite Slavery Discussion.— Parson Brownlow
gives notice, that the late slavery discussion be
tween himself and Mr. Pryne, will be out in book
form, lrom tire press ot J. B. Lippencott & Cos.,
of Philadelphia, by the first of October.
Burning of the Austria.
Halifax, Sep. 27.—The bark Lotus brought to
this port twelve of the passengers of the ill-fated
steamship Austria,
Tho vessel took fire on the afternoon of the 13th
inst., in the steerage. The speed ot the steamer
was promptly checked, but ihe flames spread rap
idly,and the magazine exploded. It is supposed
that the engineers were suffocated. The flames
drove most of the first and second Dabin passen
gers to the poop dock, but a portion of the latter
were suffocated in the cabin.
Two boats were lowered; one of them was
smashed, and the other so much crowded that it
was soon swamped.
Many of the passengers jumped into the sea.
At five o’clock in the afternoon the French bark
Maurice was alongside, and she took forty per
sons from the bowsprit; and others from the wa
ter, and also, those she found in one of the boats.
The first ami second officers were picked up, and
the latter was shockingly burnt.
Only six females were saved, and three ot those
are dreadfully burnt.
There was a Norwegian bark alongside the next
lllUlUlllg,a.. u ...uj -I ,
The Lotus had no communication with her. The
list of those saved has not been obtained.
Nicaraguan Affairs-
New York, Sept. 27.— The Times of this morn
ing publishes the draft of a treaty between Great
Britain and Nicaragua. Both Governments ap
prove of it, and Sir Wm. Ousley will shortly visit
Nicaragua to ratify it.
In the treaty, England guaranties the neutrality
of the Isthmus, and protection to passengers, by
force, if necessary The treaty secures important
commercial privileges to both countries.
Gems of Thought.
“It is true that, unraveling the cord of man’s
existence, you will generally .find the blackest
bank in it twined by a woman’s hand; but it is not
less common to trace the golden thread to the
same spindle,”
From Guy Livingstone,
... .“To-Day. —Every morning we enter upon
anew day, carrying still an unknown future in it 8
bosom. Thoughts may be born to-day, which
may never be extinguished. Hopes may be exci
ted to-day which may never expire. Acts may
be perforomed to-day, the consequence of which
may not be realized till eternity.”
A BEAUTIFUL IDEA.
“I have a strange sweet thought, I do believe
I shall be dead in Spring, and that the soul,
Which animates and doth inform these limbs,
Will pass into the daisies of my grave:
If memory shall ever lead thee there,
Through daisies I’ll look up into thy face,
; And feel a dim, sweet joy; and if they move,
As in a little wind, theu’lt know ’tis 1.”
What’s in tiie Wind in Cuba?— Our
advices from Cuba state that large purchas
es of powder aud arms had been recently
: made in Havana, in a way not to attract
the attention of the government, and that
seditious circulars were being freely dis
tributed among the free blacks. It is evi
dent that matters are not so quiet in Cuba
as they seem upon the surface to be, and
that trouble is brewing there for Spain.—
Any attempt to appeal to the blacks for the
purpose of overthrowing the government
is most reprehensible, and can only result
in the ruin of the island. It is, however,
only following the example set by the
Spanish rulers there, who have armed and
■ drilled several black regiments, while they
strictly prohibit the native whites from en
tering the army or learning the use of
arms. These new revolutionary move
ments have a double headed “ connection
in this country, one headquarter being in
this city and another in New Orleans. The
operations of the conspirators will give
Sener Tussara, the Spanish Minister at
Washington, something to do, and we ad
vise him to keep his eyes open and his
wits about him. Let him beware, however,
of speculators who are ready to sell him
information on easy terms. The sharpers
are out.—Aj Y. Herald.

One by One.
BY CHARLES DICKENS.
One by one the sands are flowing,
. One by one the moments fall;
Some are coming, some are going,
Do not strive to grasp them all.
One by one thy dulie3 w’ait thee,
Let thy whole strength go to teach ;
Let no future dreams elate thee ;
Learn thou first what these can each.
Hours are golden link-*, God’s token.
Reaching heaven ; but one by one
Take them, lest the chain be broken,
Ere thy pilgrimage be done.
Echo Song.
BY ADDISON.
Echo, tell me, while I wander
O’er this fairy plain to prove him,
If my shepherd still grows fonder?
Ought I, in return, to love him ?
Echo— Love him, love him.
If he loves, as is the fashion,
Should I churlishly forsake him l
Or, in pity to his passion,
Fondly to my bosom take him ?
Echo —Take him, take hint.
Thy advice, then, I’ll adhere to,
Since in Cupid’s chains I’ve led him ;
And with Henry shall not fear to
Marry, if you answer, wed him.
Echo —Wed him, wed him !
The Cotton Crop.
There can be no question that the size
of the crop will fall greatly below the esti
mates which were made six weeks ago.—
There is considerable difference of opinion
as to the extent of the falling off s some think
ing that the crop will fall short of that of
last year, while others insist that it will
be larger. One thing is very certain, the
crop cannot be a. ‘urge one. The propor
tion of the crop which has been gathered is
altogether too large, for a healthy crop.—
The injury from the rust has been univer
sal. This cause has made the crop open
much earlier, and the fair price which cot
ton commands, has induced planters to
hurry their crops into market. An exag
gerated estimate of the crop is thus exci
ted by the large receipts, which will not be
sustained throughout the season. —Spirit
of the South.
Our attention has been called to the
“Health Department” of Godey s Ladies’
Book , which is edited by Dr. John S, Wil
son, of Columbus, Ga. It must be a source
of gratulation to the numerous readers of
this popular and widely circulated Ladies’
journal that its proprietor, Mr. Godey,
should have appropriated a column to the
special subject of the laws of health ; and
we congratulate the proprietor and Fis pa
trons in his having engaged the services ot
so accomplished atid talented a Southern
physician to edit this department of his
journal. No subject is so little understood
and studied by the female world, and yet so
important to them as the subject of hygiene.
We believe it is generally agreed that a
very large proportion of our diseases origi
nate out of a disregard to the laws of health
—the result, particularly among females, in
a majority of instances, of an entire igno
rance of those laws. The sick need a
physician, and we applaud the rapid devel
opments in medical science which discov.
er the best remedies for the cure of disease ;
but by far the most important branch of the
science is, that part which relates to the
prevention of disease. Everybody may be
their own physician in the preservation of
henlrli. hut thev Cfinnot I'u m,h,rn A
by disease; hence the importance of the
education of the masses in hygienic laws.
Dr. Wilson is a Georgian by birth and
education. Ife is, we learn, an M. D. from
the Augusta Medical School, a gentleman
ofaccompiished scholarship, an experienced
physician, and a Christian, and we doubt not
he will give in every number something,
which, if well studied and remembered, will
be of more importance to the reader than
all the cuts of fashion they may learn in a
year.
When you have looked over the list of
fashions, and the beautiful plates, in Godey
and learned to adorn the exterior person,
turn over to the health column and read
something that will learn you the rules for
a richer adornment than tire most glittering
fashion—good health and rosy cheeks.—
Selma Reporter.
Wiiat a Pin can Do. —Some time ago an
argument was started against the great Le
viathan, now being finished at the London
docks, that it would be useless as a carrier
of freight, on account of the enormous ton
nage she would require, which could not be
gathered in any port in time to render her
voyage regular or frequent. This set an
English mathematician to work to show
what a pin could do in the way of freight.
He made known the result of his calculation,
which proved that by dropping one pin in
to the Leviathan to-day, two to-morrow,
four next day, and so bn for one year, the
aggregate would sink that monster to the
bottom of the ocean.
Mr. A. Breneman, of Lancaster, Penn.,
seeing the statement, took pains to work it
out, and the following is the result of his
labor;
Allowing 200 pins to the ounce, one pin
the first, 2 the second, 4 the third, and so
on doubling for 365 days, or one year,
would give 876,970,567,370,400 pins—
which at 200 per ounce, would amount to
4.384,852,836,852 ounces, or 274,053,302,
303’pounds and 4 ounces; and allowing
2,000 lbs. to the ton, would be 137,626,651
tons 303 lbs. and 4 ounces. Only think of
the enormous weight from the pin ! Enough
to sink not only the great Leviathan, but
the whole British Navy. It is a neat lit
tle question for boys to look at, and calcu
late bow much they would be worth, sup
pose they can save in f rty years, by lay
ing up one penny the first week two the
sec ond, four the third, and so on. It
is calculated to instruct thorn in how j
great fortunes are made. —Easton Ex

HA IR RES TOR A TIVE.
Many kinds of Tonic are advertised that we

beneficial effects. Dr. Wood was kind enough
tosend us a couple of bottles, and after finding
that it prevented our hair from falling out, we
presented a bottle to a friend who had „been bald
for at least thirty years; it has restored his hair
entirely, and it is now a-* thick and glossy as when
he was twenty live. This we say in all sincerity
