THF, 0 All Y TIMES, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9. The Paraguay Expedition. The fleet of armed vessels now concentrating at Norfolk and New York, preparatory to sailing lor the waters of the Paraguay, is represented as the most considerable fleet that ever assembled under the American flag, with the exception of that which was called into action duiing the Mexican war. The delay of to exact satisfaction for the outrage committed upon our flag by that insignificant people, and to de mand reparation lor the violation of the rights and property of our citizens, has been long and, perhaps, not altogether justifiable. From what ever cause the postponement may have occurred, we are gratified that the time for a reckoning has, aHengthTarrived and that under the auspices of the present Administration the honor ot the coun try will be vindicated. Our readers will recollect that in the yeai 1853, the Wafer Witch was dis patched under the command of Lieut. Page, for the purpose of making explorations of the navi gable waters which enclose'the,State of Paraguay on the East, West and South. To this mission we had been invited by all the riparian govern ments. The Wafer Witch while proceeding up the river Parana, the common waters ol Paraguay and the Argentine Confederation, was fired into from a Paraguayan fortress, and the loss of one of her crew and injury to her hul l was the consequence. No apology for this outrage has since been offered to the United States. Encouraged by promises of friendship and gov ernmental aid by Lopez, a company of merchants and capitalists fitted out a vessel in one of our Northern ports for Paraguay, in the hope of es tablishing a permanent commerce between the two countries The cargo consisted of the various im* plements of husbandry and manufacture which were deemed suitable to a development of the industrial arts among the people ol that republic, and of many articles lor consumption and use which were to be exchanged for the produce of the country. Our people were received by Lopez, with imposing demonstrations ot satisfaction and welcome, and with the pledged'his efforts to en courage the commercial relations o( the two coun tries. But he soon saw that this exhibition ol American progress was poorly calculated to in crease the devotion ol his people to his fortunes, or their respect for his government.. With ihis con viction, followed a change ol policy. Every ob stacle was thrown in the way of the Company ; our Consul was publicly insulted and, with the agents of the company, wa9 finally driven out of country. This is a brief rehearsal of ou- causes of the complaint against Paraguay, and it cannot be doubted that they furnish an ample justification Of the course our government has adopted for re dress. A Compliment. The Memphis Avalanche of the. sth inst., con tains the following tribute to Hon. John bell of Tennessee. “A Southern man, representing a Southern con stituency, vve do not recollect a single instance, upon a question ot Southern policy,in which Mr. Bell has not acted and voted against the majority of bis colleages, and with their Northern enemies. Claiming to be a national man, he has almost uniformly, for the last five years, acted and voted against the only national, and with the great sec tional party of the country ; and, professing to love the Constitution, the South, and ho Union* he has never failed to oppose those great meas ures which had for their object to carry out the evident intent of the first; to protect and defend the second ; and perpetuate and strengthen the third, And yet, this is the man whom wo hear pronounced a great and good statesman; a pure” minded and patriotic politician , a hold, fearless, and faithful representative; and whom, we are told, is deserving of the highest honor, and worthy to fill the proudest position in the gift of the American people—the man into whose keeping Southern men are advised to surrender their rights, their interests, and their sacred honors. Desper ate as may be her condition, and hopeless as may be her cause, we trust that the South is not yet so destitute of friends, so poor in good and true men, as to be willing to surrender her interests into the hands of such a man as John Bell ; a man whom, however,much as we may respect him for his abil ities, or admire him for his social worth, we hon-’ estly regard as the most unsafe, unreliable, and dangerous of all our Southern politicians and statesmen. South-Western Georgia—Her Claims. The last issue of the Albany Patriot contains an editorial in reference to the claims of South- Western Georgia to preferment, from which we clip the lollowing: “Our correspondent (who is a prominent man) says—-“I hope at the next Gubernatorial Conven tion the claims of the wire, grass section, will bo properly recognized, &c.” We heartily endorse this sentiment. The claims of the people of South-Western Georgia to office, and preferment seem to be entirely overlooked, and will continue to be, so long as they remain unconcerned in the matter. Where, we ask, is the solitary Executive appointment to any office of profit *rom South- Western Georgia? Notone. The claims of our section should not be disregarded to the advantage of another, and we hope the next convention will take this matter into consideration, and nominate i no man for Governor who is disposed to make such a wreckless discrimination. This section is daily growing in wealth and importance, and our coantiesare barthened with a heavy State tax, and by this means the Treasury is sustained, while some of the Northern counties do not deposit an amount sufficient to pay their representatives in the Legislature. South-Western Georgia ought to command any political influence she may de sire. At a future time we may recur to this sub ject again. Judicial Convention —Albany. The Democratic party will hold a Convention in Albany on Tuesday the 12th of October, to nomi nate a candidate for Judge and Solicitor of the South-Western Circuit. Several prominent names are before the Convention. Hon. Richard 11. Clark, 11. K. MoCay, Esq., and Judge A. A. Allen, are nieu who will wear the ermine of the bench with dignity and ability. Evans, Guerry. Ely and Solomons are candi dates for Solicitor. ► Let there be union and harmony above all things among Democrats. Every delegate will have his friend the claims of each cannot lie recognized— so let the nominess of the Convention lie the choice of the party, and all will be well. Savannah Politics.—The Democratic party of Savannah have nominated Thomas M. Turner Esq., for Mayor. The tfeket of Aldermen is nor yet complete. We published the “Reform Ticket” yesterday, headed by Mr. Hiram Roberts. John L. Harris, Esq. We learn from the Brunswick Herald, that this gentleman has been elected a member of the House of Representatives to fill the vacancy occa sioned by the death of J. W. Moore He received the entire vote polled 155. There was no opposition—Mr. Harris was a Member of the Legislature in ’55 and ’56 from the Coanty of Ful ton and was identified with the American party. He is now, we understand, a vigorous supporter of Mr. Buchanan’s Administration and will act with its friends. Like the Republican, he thinks “it has stood by the South.” Mr. Harris won a rep utation for himselfasan orator and legislator when he represented Fulton county in 1855. We con gratulate Glynn upon her choice. Florida Last Mondav (Oct. 4) the election took place • in Florida for members of Congress and the Leg islature in Florida. The Democrats have carried the State Hon. George Hawkins is re elected to Congress by two thousand majority over Dr. Westcott, the independent ctndld ;te—All hail the result and three cheer.-, tor Florida! Monument to Nelson- We see that a movement is being made to erect a monument to General Charles H. Nelson at the town of Calhoun, on the 2d ot next month. Ex- Governor Me Donald and other Georgians have interested themselves in the matter. It will be a just tribute to General Nelson, who was engaged in th 9 ludian and Mexican wars, should the monu ment ho erected. More Cotton Picking’. Mr. James Cowart gives us a statement of his cotton picking on last Saturday, on the plantation (which lie oversees) of Col. N. W. Collier, ot Albany. This plantation is two and a half miles from this place, and is one of thosejad vertised for sale, in this paper. Seventeen hands wore selec ted from a gang of twenty-two, and the following is the result of the day’s work: Shep, 565 i Fanny, 290 Don, 430 I Sarah 295 George, 530 Chaney, 340 Brant, 310 Sally, 260 Mil ledge, 337 Charlotte, 330 Louisa, 440 Eliza, 340 Martha, .. 395 Anderson 430 James,.... ...... 280 Steve, 275 Charlotte, 245 Total, 6,092 This is an average ot three hundred and fifty eight pounds to the hand. We know there had been no rain for two weeks previous to the pick ing.—Pulaski Times. son of Hon. A. G. Talbott, M. C., of Kentucky, has made his debut in the ring as a clown. The family i9 one of the proudest and wealthiest in Kentucky, and this escapade of the young gentleman must occasion them inexpressi ble mortification. Boston Post gravely asserts that a movement is on foot for the organization of po litical clubs in various locations, for bringing for ward General Winfield Scott as a candidate lor tho Presidency in 1860. It is stated that ample funds are provided and that it is the intention to run him as the people’s candidate. ITSonie people may have this intention, but in the present disorganised condition of the opposition, we would be glad to know upon what grounds any man can base an opinion as to their probable candidate for the Presidency two years to come. §GF“The Southern (Milledgeville) Recorder of the sth inst., says: “A gentleman died recently in Mississippi, we understand, who left by will fifteen thousand dollars to Oglethorpe University. Pulaski County Senator.—An election was held in Pulaski county on Tuesday the sth inst., for State Senator, to fill the vacancy of N. Mc- Duffie, who was cut off in the new county of Wilcox—C. M. Bozeman, Esq-, was elected by 174 majority over Mr. Thomas J. Barkwell. The Epidemic.

Serious Loss:—The Rev. Dr. Potts, of New York, who had been sojourning at Newburg, lost all his baggage, valued at SSOO, on his return. Some rascal presen ted a forged order at the boat and carried off the whole. A portion of it haß been received. Army Intelligence- Major Williams 5 battalion cf the 4th ar tillery left Fort Laramie on the 9th uit, to establish the new post at, Cheyenne Pass. The arrival of De Saussure’s squadron of cavalry from Fort Bridger was daily ex pected at Fort Laramie as they left that post on the 21st ult>, the same day the 6th infantry started for Oregon, via Benicia, California. The company of sappers and miners, commanded by Lieut. Duane, U. S. engU neers, arrived at Fort Laramie from Brid ger on the 30th of August, and left on the 2d for the East. ’ The 6th regiment of United States infant ry, Col. Andrews, which left Fort Bridger, Utah Territory, on the 31st of August, en route for Benicia, California, via the Bear river route, “Hedspeth’s cut—oft, and Car son valley, to Sacramento ; thence io Beni cia, and, in due season, to the seat of Indian difficulties in Oregon and Washington Ter ritories, arrived at Bear river on the 30th of August, and expected to reach Benicia— which is over 1,000 miles from Fort Brid ger about the Ist of November, if not over taken by snow storms in Carson valley.— There are 26 officers and 552 men attach ed to the regiment. The following assignments to duties ot officers in the medical department have been directed by the Secretary of War: Surgeon Madison Mills to Fort Leaven worth, Kansas ; Surgeon John W. Cuylfu to Fort Monroe, Ya.; Surgeon S N Jarvis to St. Antonio, Texas, there to assume the duties of medical director: Assistant Sur geon A. J. Meyer to Baton Rouge, La. Second Lieutenant John S. Saunders, 2d Artillery, is transferred to the ordinance de partment, and directed to report according ly to the Colonel of Ordinance, by whom he will be plact and on duty at the Washington Arsenai. Nebraska Territory- The Nebraska Legislature was organized on the 21st ult. L. L. Bowen, of Sarpy, was elected president of the Council, and A. P. Bennett, of Otoe, speaker of the House. The election for speaker turned on the Lecomptonism of the candidates, and ended in the defeat of Mr. Fleming, Le compton Democrat. Mr. Bennett is in the Opposition. Gov. Richardson’s message was of a purely practical nature, and for the benefit of the Territory. In conclusion, he alluded to his resignation, which would soon take effect, and his disinclination to enter into any local agitation. lie recurred, with pleasure, to the kindness of the people of the Territory, and urged the members of the Legislature to discard sectional jeal ousies and unite for the good of the whole people represented by them. From the Empire State Early Cos., Georgia, Sept. 29th, 1858. Mr. Editor: Judge Reed’s picking may do for Middle Georgia, but not for down here. Mr. Robert Taylor has three hands who picked 2100 pounds of clean cotton in one day last week, and can do it again. But this is to those who know, a good evidence ofSthe existence of that disease known as red rust. This is not all , we have only a partial middle crop, and no top crop. Cotton receipts will be very heavy for a time, but our picking will be over be* fore the 15th of November, because we have but a small middle crop, and no top bolls. Respectfully, A. H. McLaws. The Corn Crop.—The corn crop is now rapidly approaching maturity. We think it is now apparent, that farmers lost much iu consequence of having become discour aged too early, by the unfavorable weather experienced in May and June. Those who gave up in despair, from having their grouds overflowed or washed, will generally have but little corn to gather, while others who persevered—planting and replanting, and working half days or hours at a time, as the weather)permitted,ha\re been rewarded with lair crops. We have reports from various sections, alt which show that the crop is much bet ter than was anticipated; and that a more favorable result would have been realized, if farmers had not so soon and so generally given up in despair.— Cincinnati Gazette State Fair. —We are happy to have the opportunity of announcing, that * the proper authorities have been for some time pa9t, busily engaged in preparing the Fair Grounds, for the annual return of this great festival. Thn buildings ami appurtunan ces are being put in ample order arid con dition, and every thing will be ready in due time, for the reception of stock and every other variety of articles which way be pre sented for exhibition. The prospects ot the approaching Fair, are even brighter and more flattering than any which have prece ded it. From every quarter, intelligence comes that the people ot Georgia are awake to the great importance of this enterprise, j Atlanta is alive to a sense of her duty, in j reference to the interesting occasion, and j the public may rest assured that every de- j sired accomodation will be afforded to vis itors. A large attendance is expected, and a brilliant exhibition anticipated.— Atlanta Intelligencer. The Cotton Crop—The Market.— Notwithstanding onr farmers are making an abundance of every thing usually grown upon the larrn, yet the crops, and particu larly that of cotton, will not yield as much by a good deal as was thought it would some two months ago. We feel no hesi tancy is saying that we believe the rust has cut off the cotton crop in this county at least one-thud from former anticipations. Some crops have passed apparantly unin jured—whilst others have been stripped of ail its late fruit, and the stalk, in many in stances, killed to the ground, and on all these spots that have been visited by the rust, of course the crop is done. —Albany Patriot. Oct, 7th. A Poet afraid of a Philosopher. —A writer in the New York Evening Post, who is narrating the incidents of a trip to the Saranac Lakes, tells a good story about Longfellow and Emerson, “This reminds me of a joke that was cur rent at the Philosophers Camp about Em erson. This gentleman was noted for being somewhat abstracted, and by no means a certain shot. When the party was origin ally organized to come into the woods, the poet Longfellow was to join it, but he sub sequently peremptorily declined on hearing that Emerson had purchased a double-bar rel gun of large calibre to take with him.” Tel eo 1 rapine. REPORTED FOR THE COLUMBUS TIMES. Additional by the Canada- Halifax, Oct. 7th.—The Bank of Franco has reduced its rate of interest to three percent. The interest on treasury bonds has also been reduced to one-hall per cent. The details of the French Chinese Treaty, show that France gets 15.000,000 francs indemnity. There is nothing new in regard to the Atlantic Cable. The conflict stated by Mr. Whitehouse, in rela tion to the cable, continues. The political news is generally unimportant. The steamship North Star, which left New York on the 11th, readied Havre on the 25th of September. Further by the Canada. Halifax, Oct. B. —Among the passengers in the Canada is the American bearer of dispatches trom China. The shares in the Atlantic Telegraph Company are quoted in London at -C33o—the original cost was Jt'l,ooo. A now Cable between England and Holland has been successfully laid. Two thousand additional troops have heen ad ded to India. The Spanish army has been considerably in creased. Spain intends to act energetically to wards Mexico. The Russians are reported to have obtained an other victory over the Circassians. Our Relations with Paraguay. Washington; Oct. 7.—Commissioner Bowlin will receive his Anal instructions to-day. Paraguay will ho required to apologise for the numerous insults to our flag—make reparation to the Americans who have been driven out of the country—make a satisfactory commercial treaty, and open the ports of Parana and its branches to our commerce Incase there is any refusal on the part of Paraguay, our fleet will carry out the instructions they have received. Some reports wore circulated by telegraph that the Canada had reached Halifax yesterday after noon—it is not so. From Mexico. New Orleans, Oct. 4. By the steamship Gen. Rusk we have Brownsville dates of the 25th tilt. The yellow fever was raging at Malamo ras and Brownsville. Gen. Vidaurri was near San Luis Potosi on the 13th. Miramon had declined fight ing. The Liberalists who were forming an army at Vera Cruz. The Sugar Crop of Louisiana. A correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune expresses his views of the yield of the sugar crop as follows : “The general impression seems to he that there is an immense crop of sugar in Louis iana tfrs season. Now this is a mistake which I wish to correct, There is no doubt that more sugar will be made than was last season, but the amount will not go far above that of a fair average—says 325,000 hhd. Putting ttie loss by crevasse (includingseed required from others by those submerged) at 75,000 hhds, would make 400,000 lihds. for the State. The cane is not as good as it was in ’53 ; there is not as much of it, and shall we have as favorable a winter as that year, when many planters were grinding in March, and some in April, ’54? In Louis iana you cannot well estimate a crop until it is made. It is not once in ten years that we get such a winter as that of ’53. At this moment the ratoons are sweet, but very dry; the plant cane is very green, though of good size. In line, I am willing to risk $1250 on my estimate against that of any speculator who may try to bring down prices by reports of an immense crop.— This game is played every year, and, un fortunately for the planters with success. I notice that the sugar of the coming crop in Cuba have been sold at S2B and $25 per box, and large advances made. This gives us hopes of good prices here, which would be but fair, after the short crops of the last two years.” HEADACII AND DEBILITY. Mr. Silas Lipscomb of Birmingham says: “I have found in Boerhave’s Holland Bitters a remedy for Headache and Debility. My wife has also used it with the greatest benefit.” Mr. A. S. Nicholson, of Pittsburgh, also re marks that he has experienced much relief from its use for headache. Take a half a teaspoonlul three times a day an hour before meals. Eat moderately, and then of wholesome food, and you will find this really a remedy for Sick and Nervous Headache,Weak nessofany kind, Costiveness and Piles. Being perfectly simple in composition, it may betaken without fear by the Invalid. Possessing a fine aromatic flavor, it is very grateful to the debilita ted stomach.

Sept. 9—w&dtim * HAIR RESTORATIVE. 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 ing tried it, and witnessed in several cases its truly beneficial effects. Dr. Wood was kind enough to send us a couple of botiles, and alter finding , that it prevented our hair from falling ol *L we presented a brittle to a fiiend who had been bald i or at least ihiily years; it restored Ins hair entirely, aud it is now as thick and glossy as? when he was twenty five. This we say in all sincerity and we shall lie glad to have our friends try it tor themselves, as we believe it is just what it proless 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 gray hair on bald h.'ads, changing gray hairs to their original color, and for acosmet cor cure for pim ples, 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, arrived at by an impartial test, was the best and most honest compound remedy tor preserving and beautifying the hair,and restoring gray hairs to its original color, and the locks to the bald headed we should, without Hesitation say, Professor O.
