THE HAILY T4MKS, MONDAY, OCTOBER H- The Tariff. From various indications it is growing quite evi dnt thita serious and determined effort will be r j at the next session of the present Congress to effect some material changes in the existing tariff- c__ inasmuch as that system of raising revenue lor the Government will not be abandoned, we thinK it altogether probable that some modification may be necessary. If we are to depend upon import duties for the support of the Federal Government, nothing is clearer than that the income rom source shall be adequate to such suppor . . the rate of duty fixed by the present tariff is not commensurate to this object has been gravely a*, sorted. This conclusion has been reached by a survey of the receipts from customs for the last eighteen months, and sufficient allowance has not been made for the extraordinary condition of com merce during that period. Still, as we have said, some modification may be necessary. What this shall be is the “ rub.” The New England Manufacturer will, doubt less, claim that his interest shall receive further protection. The Pennsylvania iron founder and roller.will demand a few more per cent, ior his en couragement ; while the meek, acquiescent South erner stands with purse in hand, ready to foot the bills of both. We are opposed to surrendering another farthing to cither. 11 they cannot get aloug with the bounty already paid them by the Government, it is better for every body save them selves, that the mills and loundries be closed. The South being an agricultural people and making nearly every thing she produces for export, is, of course, a comparative sufferer by any tariff system which may be devised. She has borne calmly the unequal burthen which has been imposed upon her under the promise of gradual alleviation The history of* congressional legislation for the past twelve years reveals a partial redemption of this pledge. Hut now, it seems, we are to have a glimpse at the reverse side of this picture. ‘1 he deficit in the treasury, of which causes that no longer exist are a sufficient solution, is the pretext for a retrograde movement on the tariff scale; the transfer of money from Southern to Northern pockets, without the inconvenient requisite of an equivalent, is its object and result. We shail await the action ofSouthern men upon this subject with some interest. Whig Leaders—Democracy. Some of the opposition presses are loud in their exclamations of joy over what ,they would wil lingly believe to be an element ol jealousy in the Democratic ranks towards old-line whig leaders. They proclaim it to their readers with a flourish ol trumpets that th Democracy are tired of the association of such men as Messrs. Toombs and Stevens, who W'ere disciples of Clay and leaders of the gallant old whig party ere it was crushed like an egg-shell botore the triumphant march of abolitionism and are disposed no longer to recog nize them as the faithful exponents of democratic principles. Were we not called upon to speak in the name of the Democracy and to vindicate it against such an unwanton aspersion, we would allow an imposition to be practiced upon the cre dulity of the opposition and permit it to mistake the faint ebulitions of petty zaalousy for the voice of the party. But we wish to be understood—The democracy of Georgia are proud of the services of the old line whig?, who having principle for their guide and their country’s good their motto, rallied to its banner in the fierce strife with Black Republicanism and Know iVothiogism and assisted in bearing it aloft in irinmph and in victory. An appreciation of their worth and commnding talents has been shown by a recognition of their claims to preferment and placing them in ihe highest offices within our gift, Nor has the Democracy any jealousy towards them. The principles which the Demociatic par ty advocate, they advocate —its triumph is their triumph—its defeat is their defeat. Then away with the idea of making the old issues of the Bank, tariff, internal improvements, sub-treasury &c—issues which nave passed away into the tomb of forgetfulness—the living issues of the present day and tests of fealty to the Democratic party! The principles laid down and enunciated in the Cincinnati platform are the cardinal doctrines of our creed—they are the touchstone of our politi cal faith—the crucible which separates the gold from the alloy. When the old line whigs who are gallantly fighting with us repudiate this plat form of principles, when they oppose the policy of the democratic party and are found with its ene mies, then the time will have arrived to cry recre ancy and lop them off—but not till then. In the meantime it will be discovered that many of the old panel—simon- pure democrats of the Jeffer son school—have left the fold and are m alliance with our enemies. Let us hear no more of this petty jealousy. It will do for the opposition presses to proclaim it with trumpet notes with a view of creating distrust towards worthy, patriotic men, who will not advocate their heresies, but it is unworthy that proud, elevated tone which should characterize the democratic press and the demo cratic party. We have great faith in the old whigs who are acting with us and believe that, in the hour of danger—when the fight shall wax warm—when victory shall hang suspended be tween ihe contending armies—when the result of the conflict will depend upon the cour age and heroism of each soldier in the ranks- -they will be found rallying around our standard with their shields over them—their battle-axes uplifted and when the smoke of battle shall have passed away, it will be found that *“<►■ *>, it desert it: South-western Georgia Again— We copied in our last issue an editorial from the Albany Patriot in reference to the claims of South-western Georgia to preferment, reserving our comments for this impression of the Times. — We agree with our cotemporary as u ‘re growing importance of this section of the State and that her claims to political advancement, like that of Cherokee, have long been over-looked. Her wealth, her Railroad facilities, her intelligent and last increasing population give her a position se cond to no other section in the State. We fear, however, that the zeal of our talented cotempora ry ol the Patriot has led him into some ungener ous thrusts at our Chief Magistrate of the State, which upon sober, second thought, he will willing** ly acknowledge. He complains that there is not a “solitary Ex ecutive appointment to any office of profit from South-Western Georgia” and thinks it an unjust “discrimination.” The appointment of Benjamin May, Esq., of Stewart eounty,as Treasurer of the State Road, ia from South-Western Georgia, and a better selection could not have been made.— Worthy, intelligent, efficient, energetic, he has discharged his duties with fidelity to the State and is a true representative of our people. This our friend will not gainsay. Then we ask that Gov. Brown should be excused the side thrust convey ed in the editorial of the Patriot. “ Givi unto Caesar the things which are Caesar s. Judge Thomas. Hon. Thomas W. Thomas of Elbert, we are pleased to see, is a candidate for Judge of the Northern Circuit, at the approaching January election. Asa sound jurist and an honest poli tician, Judge T. is eminently worthy of public confidence, and no doubt the people of his dis trict will manifest a due appreciation of his worth, by electing him to the position for which he is announced. Olympian games, after being discon tinued for fifteen hundred years, are re-established at Athens, in the ancient Stadium, by a decree of the Queen Regent of Greece. nine of the camels belonging to the United States are now at Campe Verde, sixty miles from San Antonio. Only one of those im ported has died, while ten have been added by birth. Tnese young .American born camels thrive well, and promise to grow up equal in all respects to those imported. Democratic Meeting. A meeting of the Democratic party of Savannah to receive the report of the nominating committee for Mayor and‘Aldermen, took place last night at Armory Hall, Dr. Arnold in the Chair, and Alex. Waver acting as Secretary. The Committee re ported the following ticket: DEMOCRATIC TICKET. EOR MAYOR : THOMAS M. TURNER. FOR ALDERMEN: J. G. FALLIGYNT, MARTIN J. FORD, Dr JF. POSEY, JOHN F. TUCKER, JAS. B. FOLEY, J D. DELLANOY, NOAH B. KNAPP, THOS. HOLCOMB, FP. BLAIR, JOHN BOSTON, . GEO. W. WYLLY, J. M. GUERRARD, Railroad Iron,— The total imports of railroad iron from Great Britain to the United States for the first seven months of 1858, compared with those during a like space in 1856 and 1857, are as follows: 1856 91,005 tons -1857 105,613 “ 1858 5,536 “ The above table shows that in seven months of the present year we have imported less railroad iron by 100,000 tons than in the corresponding period of last year. Since August Ist, however’ there ha 9 been more activity in this department and considerable quantities have been imported by the Mobile and Ohio and other roads, and several companies have contracted for supplies to be delivered before the end of the year, so that the total importations for 1858 will not fall short of last year, as the above figures would indicate. From Washington. Washington, Oct. 5.—A private letter receiv ed from Arizonia, states that the Fort Yuma wagon road, under the superintendence of Col Leach, is nearly completed. Gen. Herran has, at the instance of Mr. Cass, returned to Washington from New York on bu siness concerning the questions between the Uni ted States and New Granada. The Interior Department has approved to Flori da, under the Congressional grant of May, 1856, over 183 acres of land, in aid of the Florida, At lantic and Gulf Central Railroad, connecting Jackson and Alligator, sixty miles in length. With the view to promote an efficient military organization among the citizens of the District of Columbia, an order will be issued, by direction o the President, for the appointment of a board to revise the laws pertaining to local militia. The Secretary of War contemplates leaving Washington to-morrow for a brief visit to the West. It is the desire of the administration that Gen Denver shall recall his resignation of the Govern ship of Kansas, and of this fact he ha 9 been ad vised. The Nicaragua Imbroglio—Commercial Intercourse of Spam and her Colonies’) with the United States—the Mission to Spain —Vessels for Paraguay , etc ., etc. Washington, Oct. 5, 1858. General Jerez, after having apologised for the insulting conduct of the Nicaraguan government to this country, with regard to the Belly negotiations and the Martinez manifesto, was formerly received by the President to-day as Minister from Nicara gua. It is understood that he has full pow ers to arrange the difficulties with this coun try, and to arrange for the acceptance of the Cass-Yrissari treaty, with or without certain unimportant modifications. The Spanish government has sent a cir cular to all its Ministers and Representa tives in foreign countries, giving directions to have sent to Madrid information of the tariff system, revenue laws import duties, &c., of the different nations. The govern ment of Spain have in contemplation to send a military force to Morocco, with a view of redressing wrongs; and, after the manner of England and of France in Algi ers, to extend its empire at the same time. It has been intimated that Mr. Tassara, the liberal and enlightened statesman who now represents Spain at Washington, is matur ing- to suomit to his government for a more Iree commercial intercourse and ex change between Spain and her colonies and the United States. No Spanish represen tative at Washington ever understood bet ter our institutions, was ever more appre ciated, or was ever in a position to do more. It is to be hoped the administration com prehends this. The mission to Spain has been tendered to the Hon. William Preston, of Kentucky, but it is not known yet whether he has de termined to accept it. Captain West and other gentlemen are here in conference with the Secretary ol the Navy with regard to some ot the vessels appointed for the Paraguay expedition, which, it is said, are unfit for the service, and to consider the propriety ot substi tuting others. General Herran is active in endeavoring to impress the government with the liber al and friendly disposition of Ospina, Presi dent of New Granada, and hopes that our difficulties with New Granada may be speedily settled. He speaks confidently of this. The President will return to his residence at the White House to-morrow. The Sec retary of War and ihe Postmaster General are about to leave Washington for a short time. — N. Y. Herald. [From Cotton PlaDterand Soil.] Plantation Work for October. Sweet Potato Vines as Hay , —lt is re markable that planters will allow their po tato vines to be killed by frost, to the se rious injury of the root, and total loss of the vines, previous to gathering, and yet they will spend time in saving pea vines that are done growing and partially dry, and fodder (corn blades) after the corn is matured, when neither or both together are worth as much as the potato vine for stock for food, by 25 per cent. .On the 20th of this month, and earlier in propor tion as you go northward in the cotton re gion, the potato vine is in a state of luxu riant growth, having shed none of its leaves —full of saccharine matter and starch. They may be gathered with great rapidity and easily cured, as there is rarely rain about the 20th of October. There is no forage in the class of hays, for stock cattle and mules, to be [compared to well cured sweet potato vines. Stock. —The stock of the plantation and especially your porkers, and those of every variety intended for exhibition at the Stare Fair, should be receiving extra attention this month. Every facility afforded them now for putting on fat, will add greatly to their coinfort and well doing through the winter. The stock, both cattle and hogs, should be allowed to glean the corn fields after gathering; they receive much benefit from it. In and during this month, before the rains and frost commence, they do the land no injury by gleaning and walking over the land in dry weather, but they should be kept off the field in rainy weather. Colton Seed— You are now ginning, and your cotton seed intended for manure should be kept from the weather and un der cover. In no item of the same value does the plantation lose so much, as in its cottonseed intended for manure, which are throw u out in heaps against the side of the gin house, to lie through the winter, decayingand exposed to the sun, wind and rain. In this condition, a heap of cotton seed loses 30 to 50 per cent, of its value by the middle of February. We shall call at tention to this subject again in our article of work for January, when we shall go fully into the subject of applying cotton seed as a manure for both com and cotton in their unrotted state. This may, to many per sons, appear paradoxical at first view .as nothing is properly food for plants in its undecayed condition, yet our experience of several years, has proved conclusively that such is the solubility of cotton setd, that put into the grouud in January or February they furnish food for the young plant, ei their corn or cotton, as soon as it is up. In this way none of the valuable gases are lost by evaporation, etc., as in the case of rotting the seed in bulk. The Kansas Gold Fever. The Bee gives its readers some informa tion touching the new gold region in the western part of Kansas, It says: “It would appear, indeed, that the geologi cal formation of the country is analogous ir. many respects to the placers of California, and hence the inference, that with proper apparatus and*efficient and organized labor, the yield will be as rich as injthe latter State. That this belief is thoroughly entertained is evident|from the rush of immigration to Pike’s Peak.” Spain. Position of the O'Donnell Cabinet. — The papers from Madrid are dated to the 14th ult. Things in Madrid seem approach ing a crisis. However unfounded may be the persistent rumors of disturbances, there can hardly be a doubt that O’Donnell must soon take some more decided political po sition. It is the intention of those progres istas who have accepted office (some of them, as Messrs. Luzuriaga and Roda, high position in the government,)to resign if the Premier does not frankly adopt a liberal course. It is thought that a modifi cation of the ministry is imminent. The elections are to take place early in October and will doubtless be attended with great excitement. The Madrid Gazette of the 14th ult, pub lish advices from Lugo, stating that their Majesties and the Royal family arrived there on the preceding day in perfect health and were received with acclamations; — their majesties spent the day at Lugo, re ceived the authorities, heard mass in the cathedral, visited the hospital and nunnery and presented their children to the people, the most enthusiastic acclamations being raised at the sight of the Prince and Prin ces. Parties at the North on the Tariff.- The Richmond “South,” in an elaborate article describing the position of parties at the North, speaks as follows : That all parties at the North, with the exception of a few Free Trade Democrats, balanced by a few Southern Protectionists, are in favor of a protective or a revenue tariff, with incidental protection, is obvious from the following extracts from their most recent avowals of opinion upon that sub ject. Avery large Democratic meeting in Philadelphia, which recently adopted sound resolutions on the subject of slavery, add ed ; -We endorse and re-affirm the long established Democratic doctrine of a tariff for revenue, with a judicious incidental protection to our home industry.” The Black Republicans of New York de nounce the system of “borrowing”, by the Federal Government, and call for “some comprehensive and adequate system of fi nance.” What is this but a periphrasis for an increase of the tariff, since taxation is the only financial alternative of “borrow ing ?” The American party of New York pro poses to “Americanize the Government” by “protection for home labor and home manu factures, and for the completion and pro tection of our established works of internal improvement. How can this policy be carried out with out a protective tariff ? A stuttering man at a public table had occosion to use a pepper box. After shaking it with -all due vehemence, and turning it in various ways, he found that the pepper was in no wise inclined to come forth. “T-th this p-pep-per he exclaimed, with a sagacious grin, “is so-something like my self.” “Why?” askad a neigebor’ “P-poo-poor delivery,” he replied. Telegraphic. REPORTED POR THE COLUMBUS TIMES. Yellow Fever in New Orleans. The following despatch was received from the Howard Association of New Orleans, ‘on Satur day evening,and sufficiently explains itself. New Orleans, Oct. 9, 1853. The Howard Association of New Orleans deem it their duty to inform the country, that the pro longed existence of yellow lever, and the present great mortality, are solely owing to the influx of strangers, who rapidly fall victims. Timely notice will be issued by the Association, of the decadence and disappearance of the epidemic. E. F. SCHNIDER, Pres’t. D. J. Ricakdy, Sec’y. Augusta, October 10th, 9 P. M.

Savannah Market.—Sales of yesterday were unimportant - Yellow Fever.—The Board of Health reports three interments from yellow fever to-day, Punctuation. —The points now used in punctuation were introduced into writing gradually, some time after the invention of printing, The Greeks had none! and there was no space between their words.— The Romans put a kind of division between their words, thus! —Publicus, Scipio, At ricanus. Upon the end of the fifteenth century only the period, colon, and comma had been introduced. The latter came into use latest, and was only a perpendicular fig ure or line proportionate to the size of the letter. To Aldus Manutius, an eminent printer in 1570, we are indebted for the semicolon, and also for the present form of the com ma. He also laid down rules now observed in regard to their use. The notes of inter rogation and exclamation were not added till some years later, and it is not known by whom. Inverted commas [“] were first used by Monsieur Aillemount, a French printer, and were intended by him to supersede the use ol'italic letters, and the Printers call them by that name. But they have lately been used by the English printers, to denote quoted matter. In a London book, “The Art of English Poetry,” printed in IGO7, it appears that the present mode of denoting quoted matter is therein denoted by being set in italic. It is not known by whom the apostrophe and dash were invented.— The Primer. Democracy of Maine. —We are grati fiecL*to learn from the New York Daily News of the 29th ult. that the late election in Maine has resulted in the return of two National Democrats to Congress from that State. In the present Congress Maine is entirely represented by Black Republicans. This result is a cheering one to the South, as it indicates that in Congress which sits prior to the Presidential election of 1860, the Democratic party will have a substantial majority to depend upon by which they can sustain the Administrative measures on wihch the election of the next President may turn. The result in Maine may also be regarded as foreshadowing a similar one in Pennsylvania and New York. The Black Republican cause is sinking to its proper leve! at the North and will before long we believe, perish out of its own corruption and weakness.— Atlanta Intelligencer. The Philadelphia Post Office.— The Philadelphia papers say that Postmaster General Brown, Attorney General Black, and Honorable Howell Cobb, Secretary of the Treasury, have decided in favor of the purchase of the Levy property, adjoining the Custom-house, on Chestnut street, and the erection thereon of anew and commo dious structure for a post office. The lot is 30 feet front by 225 feet deep to Library street, aid the new structure is contempla ted to occupy also some 20 feet of the va cant space adjoining the Custom-house, thus giving it a front on Chestnut street of 50 feet, and a like width in the rear on Library street, with ample loom for side entrances, &c. Cost of the Africans. —A correspon dent of the Charleston Mercury states tha, the Africans found on board the Echo, which was recently captured off the coast of Cuba, by the Dolphin, were purchased on the West Coast of Africa at from fifty cents to one dollar a head; and costing scarcely more than ten or fifteen dollars to be delivered on the coast of Cuba. The cost of returning them to their native jun gles will be about a thousand dollars a piece. More British Usurpations. —The last intelligence from Nicaragua assures us that the English are putting their Sambo king of the Mosquitoes in possession of Punta Arenas. The othed side of the river has been in effect assigned to Cost© Rica by England, in reward for her services in break ing up the American Transit. Nicaragua is thus plundered of her t©ritory on both sides of the San Juan to endow the servants of England, It is a curious way cf observing the Clayton-Bulwer treaty; and to be in perfeet keeping with the rest of it, Paulding ought to have an admiral’s commission un der Sambo, of Mosquito, with United States pay of course. iSIF” The balloon tragedy of Mr. Thurston’s has recalled a similar one which occurrred in the year 1855. Timothy Winchester made an ascent from Norfolk', Ohio, in Au gust of that year, starting in good spirits, and amid the cheers of a large concourse of people, since which time he has not been heard from. When last seen he was near and going in the direction of Lake Erie. No tidings have ever been heard of him or his balloon. This balloon, too, belonged to Mr. Bannister. The Duel. —The affair of honor, a set tlement of which took place Monday night, near Butterworth’s Bridge, between two young gents of this city, by recourse to blank cartridges, at ten paees by the light of the comet, resulted according to previous arrangement of the seconds. Wads were exchanged, when by tne interposition of mutual friends, the affair was ‘‘honorably adjusted. ’ One of the party, however, we regret to learn, got “shot” accidentally, on his return to the city .-—Petersburg Press. The Cotton Crop. The planters generally agree, that the Cotton is turning out much better than they anticipated a month ago. The weather for picking has been fine for the last two or three weeks, and if it should continue so for a few weeks longer the greater poriion of the crop will be housed. We learn the quality of the cotton is un usually good. We are of thejOpinion that the crop in this section will exceed the crop of last year by at least one-fifth.— Pulaski Times. IIEADACH AND DEBILITY. Mr. Silas Lipscomb of Birmingham says: “I have found in Boevhave’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 teaspoonful 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 ness of any 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&dOm 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 after finding that it prevented our hair from falling out, we presented a bottle to a ftiend who had been bald or at least thirty years; it j-has restored Ins hair entirely, and it is now as thick and glossy as when he was twenty five. This we say in all sincerity and we shall bo glad to have our friends try it for themselves, as we believe it is just what it profess es to be For real 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 hmds, 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 novv-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 for 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.
