THE DAILY TIMES. 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 mil UU A. *. a>- w 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) \ Spirit of the South. , Democratic Paper for Sale.

Cobb, a native of Georgia, but for a number of years a prominent citizen of Miss aod .uthor °f ‘‘Leisure Labors” ,ud other ersaye, (tied m Columbia, Miss, on the 15;h inst. 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. EriP’The Charter Oak place, so celebrated in the history of Conn., is being cut up and laid out into building lots. Ere long, the precise spot on which the old tree stood | may become a question of dispute. 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 press. r Keep out of bad company, for the . chance is, that when the devil fires into a ! flock he will hit somebody. By the Latest Dates trom Utah, it appears that the Mormon priesthood, feeling that their influence is on the wane, have seclu ded themselves, hoping thereby to become ! more mysterious and powerful. The feel ing of the Alormons are evidently undergo-! itig a charge, but the leaders are still hostile to the United States authorities, and throw j obstacles in their way. They are also en deavoring to raise an Indian war. Many of the Mormon people are in a wretched condition, and some of the women are with out proper clothing. Telegraphic.

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 and we shall be glad to have our Iriends try it tor themselves, as we believe it isj-ist what it profess es to be For real worth, Wood’s Hair Restora tive is undoubtedly the best preparation now in use for restoring hairon bald heads, changing giay hair on bald h ads, changing gray Bairs to their original color, and for a cosmetic or cure lor pun pies, it is fast taking the place ot other prepara tions. No toilet no.v-a days is complete with out it.
