THE DAILY TIMES.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 5.
Kews Summary-
During iho past week the cotton market has
been ratherflat throughout the South-though the
Steamer’s news indicate a decided tone and an
advancing tendency in the market, the most san
guine expectations have been disappointed as to
the probable height it would reach. The evi
dences are that the cotton crop will be somewhat
larger than was first anticipated. Bull it is mere
speculation to give an opinion irom the receipt
at this time
The latest accounts of the working or the great j
cable across the Atlantic are unfavorable. There j
is supposed to be a fracture about ‘-M* miles Iroin ;
the Valencia shorn. The cable it is thought could j
l>e repaired at this point, as the depth of the ater
is only 410 fathoms, but further out, there is a
sudden decent between 1,500 to 1,800 fathoms,
where the difficulty perhaps lies, and where it will
be impossible to make any repairs. The com
pany’s shares have receded to £315.
The Continental news is unimportant The
port privileges obtained by Russia at Villa Franca i
are pretty much of the character enjoyed by the ,
United States at Spezzia. The vintage, both in
Frace and Portugal, is abundant. Russia is still ;
going on in her work of emancipation of the
Serfs. The Russian troops have obtained a victory
in Circassia.
The accounts from Central America report our
Minister, Genearl Mirabeau B. Lamar, as having
left Nicaragua. The treatment he received Jn that
Republic was not such as would please a high-j
toned, chivalrous Minister, and hence it is thought
he will return home. He was at Costa Rica at :
the last accounts.
Minister Foreyth is expected home during the
present month from Mexico. The President has
sustained him in his trying difficulties in that coun
try and]_his recognition of the Zuloaga Govern
ment.
The political news throughout the country i ■
not of much interest. California has repudiated I
Broderick anJ the Dougladiee, and sustained the
Administration. J. G. Baldwin, Esq.,—formerly
of Alabama, and antlu-r of the “Flush Times’’—
has been elected Judge of the Supreme Court. A
heated canvass is going on in Pennsylvania and
Illinois. The Democrats ignored the Kansas ques
tion, and treated it as a past issue, notwithstanding
the efforts of the Black Republicans to keep it be
fore the people.
In Georgia, there are few questions ef general
importance before the people The State Road,
through the Treasurer, Benj. May, Esq , returned
$25,000,as the neit earnings of the road for the
month of September. The Legislature soon con
venes, and it is probable many subjects will be
brought before it of interest to the State.
Religious-
Tho pulpits ol our different ehurehes were all
filled last Sunday.
Bishop Andrew conducted the set vices in the j
Methodist church, flis sermon was founded upon j
the following passage of scripture, to-wit:
“How can ye believe, which receive honour one
of another, and seek not the honour that cometh
from God,” 3 John, iv chap., 44 verse.
Baptist Church— Rev. J. H. DeVotie com
mented upon the following verses:
‘‘Then saith he unto his disciples, die harvest
truly is plenteous, but the laboiors are tew, 37.
Pray ye therelore the Lord of tlie harvest that
he will send forth laborers into the. harvest,” —
38 Matt., ix chap.
Episcopal Church —Rev. Mr. Hawks, from
the latter part of sih verie, xii chap. Romans
“So we,being many, are one h.dy in Christ,
and every one members one of another.”
PRESBYSTERIAN CHURCH.
Rev. Dr Higgins Ist Revelation—9ih to 20th
verses inclusive. The Vision and reads as fol
lowb :
y. I John, who also am your brother, and com
panion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and
patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is
called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the
testimony of Jesus Christ.
10. I was in the Spirit of the Lord’s day, and
heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet.
11. Saying, lam Alpha and Omega, the first
and the last; and. What thou seest, write in a
book, and send it unto the seven churches which
are in Asia ; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna,
and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto
Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Lao
dlcsa.
12. And I turned to see the voice that spake
with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden
candlesticks;
13. And in the midst of the seven candlesticks
one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a gar
ment down to the foot, and girt about the paps
with a golden girdle.
14. His head and his hairs were white like
wool, as white as enow; and his eyes were as a
flame of fire;
15. Aud his feet like unto line brass, as if they
burned in a furnace ; and his voice as the sound of
many waters.
16. And he had in his right hand seven stars:
out of his mouth went a sharp lwoedged sword :
and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his
strength.
17. And when 1 saw him, 1 fell at his feet as
dead. And be laid his right hand rpou me, say- .
ing unto me, Fear not; lam the first and the last; j
18. lam he that liveth.and was dead ; and be- i
hold, 1 am alive for evermore, Amen ; and have i
the keys of hell and of death.
19. Write the things which thou hast seen, and
the things which are, and the tilings which |shall
be hereafter ;
29. The mystery of the seven stars which’ thou .
sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden
candlesticks. r lhe seven staia are the angels of
the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks
which thou eawest are the seven churches.
Catholic Church— Rev. Michael Cullman i
from XXII, chap. St, Matthew. First fourteen
verses. i
And Jesus answered and spake unto thsm again ’
by parables, and said,
2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto acer- j
tain king, which make a nuiriage for his son
3 And sent forth his servants to call them that ‘
were bidden to ihe wedding : and they would no •
come.
4 Again, he sent forih other servants, saving,
Tell them which are bidden,Behold. I have pro- !
pared my dinner: my oxen and my failings are j
killed, and all things are ready : come unto the i
marriage.
5 But they made light of 7,and went their ways,
one to his farm, another to his merchandise
6 And the remnant took his servauts, and en
treated them spitefully and slew them
7 But wnen the king heard thereof, be wa*
wroth : and he sent forth his armies, and destory*
•and those murderers, and burned up their city
8 Then saith he to his servants, The 7 wedding
is ready, hot ihey which were bidden were no
worthy,
9 Go ye therefore into the highway?, and as
many as ye .-hall find, bid to the marriage.
10 So those servants went out into the high
ways, and gathered together all as many as they
found, boihbsd and good: and thelwedding was i
furnished with guests
11 And when the king came in to see the !
ouest: 1 , he 6aw there a man which hadjnot on a
wedding-garment:
12 And be saitii unto him, Friend, how earnest
thou in hither, not having a wedding-garment ?
And he was speechless.
13 Then said the king to the servant?, Bind him
hand and loot, and take him away, and cast him
into outer darkness : there shall be Sweeping and
gnashing ot teeth.
14 For many are called, but lew are chosen.
Railroad Meeting in Wilkes.
A large number of the citizens ol Wilkes co.
convened in the Court House at Washington on
Tuesday 28:h, and were organized by calling M
G. Robert, Esq , to the chair and appointing Robt
Hester, Esq., of Elbert Cos., Secretary.
At the request of the Chairman, the Hon. Rob
ert Toombs addressed the meeting ; explained its
object to be to effect an extension of the Railroad
from Washington, through Elbert County to Hart
well, in Hart County. He proceeded to show
that not only would those particular sections he
benefited nv development and connection with the
| Railroads of our State but that the. proposed route
would connect the Georgia Railroad with the
* Rabun Gap Road, and thereby open a communi
cation from Augusta to East Tennessee, by a
route one hundred miles shorter than any other,
: and place her in successful competition with Char
leston for the trade of that fertile country.
Heearuestly recommended the adoption of such
measures as would at once proceed to the inves
tigation of the proposed measure, and demon
strate its utility to the country at large—and con
cluded by moving the appointment of a Commit
| toe to confer with Committees from the counties
of Elbert and Hart, who lud been appointed at
a previous meeting in those Counties, and were
j present, and called upon them for reports horn
their respective Counties. Wilkes Republican.
Cost of the Africans— A correspondent ot
| the Charleston Mercury states that the Africans
found on board the Echo, which was recently
: captured off the coast of Cuba, by the Dolphiu,
i were purchesed on the West Coast of Africa at
; from fifty cents to one dollar a head ; and costing
j scarcely more than ten or fifteen dollars to be de
j livered on the coast of Cuba. The cost ot re
turning them to their ir tive jungles will be about
a thousand dollars a piece.
For the Columbus Times.
Eyrie,-(near Auburn Ala.) )
Sept. 25th, 1858. (
j George W. Chatfield, Esq.:
My Dear Old Friend—The letter which
i you did me the honor to address to me
I through the medium of the Columbus Dai
! ly Times, of the 9th Sept., has lost none
lot its claims to my attention—none of its
political or personal significance by thode
! lay ot this reply, which has been unavoida*
j ble.
| It would be supererogation for ine 1 be
lieve, in this latter partoi the year of our
Lord 1858, to avow that I am a Democrat
—and especially to make such an avowal
j to you, and that public in Georgia and
Alabama, which reads the Columbus
Times. We became acquainted in Geor
gia in 1840, and as you say have ‘-been
for many jiears engaged hand in hand in
support of the great and time honored
principles (my italics) of the Democratic
party. The Columbus Times has always
been friendly to me, and honored me above
my humble merits. While its sanctum
was illuminated by the genius of John
Forsyth, I was always an accepted, as I
wasja voluminous contributor to its columns
When my old college friend, Tennent
Lomax, presided, with an unusual ability,
dignity, and a noble gallantry (over its for
tunes, I was no stranger to its generous
liberality and glowing sympathies. And
now that the editorial helm has been com
mitted to the hands of my gifted and gen
erous young friends, Peyton 11. Colquitt & !
James W. Warren, I should as soon ex- 1
pect to be recieved with cold indifference j
at the hearthstones and altars of my dear
old Father’s children, as in the sanctum of
the Columbus Times. I will not familiar
ize to the vulgar eye a friendship sacred to
memory, upon which Death has fixed his
solemn seal, but I may presume to say
such relations existed, in his lifetime, be
tween Judge Colquitt and mvself, that 1
would venture with great confidence upon
the friendship of any child of that noble
Senator and nobler man. Mr. Warren, too,
numbers among his nearest relatives, dead,
and living, some of my earliest and most !
generous friends.
To you, then, to the people of Western I
Georgia, who were my friends, and the j
friends of my venerated father—to the ;
readers of the Columbus Times in Georgia I
and Alabama, to the Jwhole people of my !
native State and yours—l thank you for an
opportunity of “talking as in days of yore” !
upon those political topics which can nev- j
er be “indifferent” to earnest patriots and j
intelligent Christians.
It is important to me, that I premise a j
very general observation or two respecting j
myself. I do this without any affected !
modesty, as I sufficiently comprehend my- i
i self to know that my egotism is of no im- 1
portance to the world. l"am a Democrat — j
but I trust have laid all my prejudices up
on the altar of my country, and am pre- I
pared to do full justice to patriots of what
ever name or former distinction. I aspire
: to be a better friend of my country, (and I
i mean by my country this South of ours,)
j than I am a democrat —more a patriot
k than a partizan. Indeed, while I sufli
[ ciently respect the ties which bind good
men together for patriotic purposes, I must
| be frank enough to declare to you that 1
: detest mere partyism as such —and that
I this sentiment which was always a princi—
\ pie with me, grows as I advance in life,
| into an uncontrollable passion. In my
| soul, I believe all mere parties to be cor
rupt, and that there are as many patriots
in one party as another.
You cannot fail to perceive how little
sympathy I have with the late pronun
ciamcnto of the Washington Union,
that “the highest crime a Representa
tive (in Congress) can commit is a fail
ure to abide by the laws,” (pray in what
code are they registeredj) “of the Demo
cratic party.” When r became a demo
crat, it was upon the conviction of my
judgment, and we had no such “law*” and
“crimes” as are here indicated. Then, pri
vate judgment and conscience and reason,
were the bonds of party.and individuals were
freemen and supeiior to party. Then, the
Constitution and laws, and interests of our
country bound us in a higher allegiance to
patriotism, than to party. Xow, it seems
“the highest crime” is “a failure to abide
by these new ‘’laws*’ ot a “party. I hen
“a Representative” of the people, upon his
conscience as a Christian, and bis love ot
honor as a man, stood up unshackled in the
Legislative Assembly and plead his sa
cred oath of office, as ot higher obligation
than any mere party tie, and he bravely
stood in defence of the interests ot his con
stituents in defiance of all parties. It this
sentiment of the Washington l nion is a
ukase of the central power at Washington,
and a test of true Democracy, why it re
mains that quo ad hoc, I am no Democrat !
Again—l am not willing to be defined as
an “administration democrat,” I will meas
ure this and every “administration” and
man, by the standard of “principles” as
you do, and approve whatever in my judg
ment is right, and reluctantly but sternly
condemn and denounce whatever I dispas
sionately believe to be wrong. I will take
current opinions as I do current coins, for
what they are, worth, without respect to the
j superscription they bear. No administra
! tion can become the standard, but every
i one must be tried by your “test of demo*
| cratic orthodoxy”—viz: those great, strict
j construction, democratic principles which
j have bourne our country aloft to its pres*
j ent high and glorious position”—Chieiest
of these “principles” I account the equality
of the Southern States in this Union, and
the absolute equality of Southern property
with Northern propeiiy—in its right to pos
itive protection.
Much as I approve in this administration
and zealously as I labored to bring it into
power, I cannot pretend that it comes up
tu my standard of Southern Rights, and I
am therefore not willing to be known as
an “administration democrat’ hut prefer to
be, and to he called “a Southern Rights
democrat.”
I do not think the present Administration
free from the charge ot “ intervention ’ in
the slavery contest in Kansas—l think it
has been timid, vasciilating, and I tear not
wholly impartial—l do not choose to eriii
cise it as I think it deserves, hut i am not
willing to go before the country in 1800 in
defense of it.
1 do not approve the policy of the ad
ministration as disclosed m the Washington
Union of August 29lh—in the following
blushless cottoning to the Black Republican
North. It is a poor defence to say that it is
insincere, and is only attempting to delude
the free-soilers by a fhise pretence, ll this is
true, ii is time that honest men were boldly
striking for a radical reformation ot a party
driven to such disreputable shifts to retain
power. Ido not know, and 1 must confess,
1 care as little whether the Union discloses
a real policy or deals only in a pretence, its
course is equally objectionable to me. And
because it is the accepted organ of the Fed
i ai Administration, I am not willing to be
I identified with its views by wearing the
• peculiar badges of an Ad ministration De
mocrat. Hear the Union upon the Le
compton Constitution with the principle
;of the Pugh Amendment and tell me, if
; your zeal for Administration Democra
:cy does not tail below fever heat? Hear
| the Union:
-■To have come into the Union, under
i the Lecornpton Constitution would have
i been to invest herself immediately"’ (uot
vvithstandingthe provision of the Lecomp
ton Constitution against anti-slavery
amendment before 1864!) with the power to
abolish slavery —a power which she does
not possess, and which Congress cannot
exereise for her.
“Itiswjf a fact that the admission of
Kansas under theLecompton Constitution
would have resulted in favor of slavery
there,” (therefore you Black Republicans
were not smart in rejecting the Presiden
tial policy—the best freesoil policy of im
mediate admission.) “Not only was it
impossible that this (a favorable result to
slavery in Kansas) was the operation of
the bill (which the Administration favored)
but it was as impossible that this could
have been the intention of its authors.
“The Know Nothing Council admit that
a majority of the people of Kansas were
opposed to slavery. They knew that the
oretically under the Dred Scott decision,
slavery existed in the Territory and that
admission into the Union, under the Le
compton Constitution was the quickest I
process by which they could prohibit that
relation (of slavery) in Kansas. That be
ing admitted, the people had sovereign !
power at once to change their constitution j
(the Pugh principle of revolutionary Squat
ter Sovereignty) and thus give effect to
their opinions as to the subject of slavery.
In other words theLecompton Constitution .
was presented to Congress early last winter.
Had the State been admitted, long ere this
29th ot August, she could have framed a
new constitution, and been a free State de
facto et de jure. The Know Nothings and
Republicans were fully advised of these
matters—opposed admission, and i
vented the people of Kansas from making
a free State according to the
prescription of the Federal Dispensatory
and under the auspices of the Administra
tion !)
I tell you sir, the South will agree with
! me that there is a substantial difference be
| tween a Southern Rights Democrat and an
; Administration Democrat. I protest that
| that I had no part nor lot in the cunning
! plot here disclosed to out do the free soil-
I ers in their own work, and thrust favors on
them, or the knavish pretense of such a
policy, which is obliged to demoralize the
party at the South and help forward its
freesoil tendencies at the North.
If any man thinks l write this with pleas
ure, he is grievously mistaken. It gives me
the greatest pain. I write it because I be
lieve it, and will shut my ears to the siren
voice of party, when my country pleads for
defence against the stiletto ot false triend
ship; because I am willing to suffer re
proach and encounter denunciation rather
than violate the sacred claims of
“Duty —Stern daughter of the voice ot God.”
I cannot forget the course of Mr. Secre
tary Stanton in Kansas —the late revela
tions he made in Kansas of Adminis
trative anti-Southern intervention. I be
lieve in my heart it was he fixed poli
iey of the President and more so of
his cabinet to make Kansas a free
State. The relations which subsisted be
tween Gov. Walker and the administration ;
and its mode of dealing with him satisfy .
rae that he fairly represented that policy.— i
For a lou£ time I shut m v eyes and doubled
and rejected the conclusion and even in
vented a theory of defence for his Kansas
policy —I am satisfied and I record it—Like
the trusting generous Moor, J
“ —Loved not wisely but too well”—
I was not ‘‘easily jealous,” but—“being
wrought,” l confess myself like mm, “per
plexed in the extreme.' 1 ’

Halifax, Sept. 29 —1 bring instruments
and regulations for testing and working on
certain days, when the Valentia electricians
will be particularly watchful for signals.
It is hoped that by establishing a system
of unison between the two stations, to get
signals through. The conductor is not bro
ken. The defect is the loss of insulation
at two hundred and fifty miles from Va
lentia. It is possible, that by sending a
certain kind of electricity, to improve the
insulations, and thus overcome the difficul
ty tor a time. From the nature of the de
fect. signals even at present may be received
at Valentia from Newfoundland, but not
vice versa.

GRAND JURY PRESENTMENTS.
TAMIL* 1‘ COUNTY.
WE the Grand Jury sworn, chosen and se
lected, tor the September Term of Tab
’ hot Superior Court, beg leave to report these our
general presentments.
The various committees have been appointed
and made their reports. Alter an examination
of the Books of the Ordinary, as School Com
missioner, we find thats999.so have beeu receiv
ed lor Ihe year 1857, and the Ordinary has paid
out <sp 1,03u.31, including his commissions for
which he has vouchers, tie has of the previous
year a balance on hand of $269.17. We tlnd the
sum ot sßl,ll due the Ordinary for the year
1857, as an amount which has been overpaid.—
l The Books of „ the office are found to be kept
neatly and correctly; as well as the books ot the
Clerk ot the Superior and Interior Courts, and
too much praise cannot be awarded those offi
cers by this body. We congratulate the county
upon having. , such men, who, universally,
have discharged the duties of their respective offi
ces with so much faith and riiligeuee.
Upon an examination of tho County Treasur 1
er’s Books, we find only $4 GO in taoor of the
county—the books and .vouchers of that officer
agreeing to said balance.
• The Court House and Jail are reported to be
■ in a eond and safe condition.
We regret exceedingly that we are torced to
report to the Inf. Court the Commissioners of the
889th dist. G. M. viz.: Overton 11. Walton,Lemuel
Miller, and Mansel ‘l'. Mcßryde, for a neglect
of duty in having the roads properly worked, and
1 also the Commissioners of the9o4th district G. M.
viz:—W. F. Moore, William Reidy, Lerrand
Par km an, tor not having certain obstructions re
moved on a road running through the land of
Thomas Green, in said District. We suggest to
the , nierior Court the propriety ot having the
bridge at Ragland’s Mill examined. The bridge
| is reported to be in an unsafe condition, particu
j larly the abutments and niches.
YVc find a great evil prevails in some parts
of our county in allowing the assemblage of ne
groes lor the purposes of public worship, and
sometimes tor public amusements. Indeed, to
such an extent has it been carried, that very fre
quer.tly offences have been committed. Drunken
j ness and other kinds ot debauch ry are perpetrat
ed, and we particularly des.re that the laws con
cerning and regulating these matters be strictly and
: rigidly enforced, not only by the patrol eompa
j nies in their respective d.stricts, but by the vari
ous judicial tribunals of the county,
! It is with regret that we notice that the object
of our Legislature in the establishment of a Supreme
Court, has not been faithfully carried cut, and the
expectations of the people in regard to that tribunal
have not beon realized. We therefore particutar
j ly recommend to our next Legislature, the neces
sity of making some alterations in that tribunal or
j its abolishment in toto, at least, v.e desire to see
the Reports ol that Court, become the permanent
laws ot tno State.
In conclusion we wish to express our unqualified
approbation of the promtness of his Honor Judge
Worrill in the dispatch of business in our court
and ibi his lucid exposition and impartial admin
istration .ot the laws* To the Solicitor-General
pro tern Jack Brown fur his prompt and efficient
aid to this body and indeed without the assistance
rendered Ly him we cannot see how we could
have discharged the various duties devolving upon
| us as the Grand Inquest of the county. We re
quest these our general presentments to be publish
ed in the Columbus Enquirer and Columbus
Times.

HA 1R RE S TOR A TIVE.
Many kinds of Tonic are advertised that we
are assured will strengthen the hair and prevent
its falling out, but none that we have seen used
does all that it promises, save that of Professor
O J Wood’s. This we know is good from hav
iug tried it, and witnessed in several cases its truly
beneficial effects. Dr. W'ood was kmd enough
to send U3 a couple of bottlee, and after finding
that it prevented our hair from falling out, we
presented a bottle to a fiiend who had been bald
ior at least thirty years; it baa restored his hair
entirely, and it is now as thick and glossy as when
he was twenty five. This we say in all M'nwlty
and w>e shall be glad to have our friends try it for
themselves, as we believe it is just what it profess- 1
es to ba For teal worth. Wood’s Hair Restora- :
tive is undoubtedly the best preparation now in
use for restoring hair on bald heads, changing gray
hair on bald hitds, changing gray hairs to their
original color, and for acosmet cor cure for pint
p'es, it is fast taking the place of other prepara
tions. No toilet now-a days is complete with
out it.
If any one should ask us what in our opinion, j
arrived at by an impartial test, was the liest and !
most honest compound remedy tor preserving and ;
beautifying the hair,and residing gray hairs to j
its original color, and the locks to the bald headed
we should, without hesitation say, Professor O. J. !
