THE DAILY TIMES. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19 Nashville Conference—Picture. With a view to raise (unde sufficient for the erection of a Methodist Church in W ashingtou City that will bo an ornament to the Metiopolia, and worthy the Southern organization o( this body of Christian?, a Mr. Smithson has made ar rangements to have executed by Mr. J. C. Butter, of New York, one of the most skillful and and accomplished artists in this country, a fine steel-plate engraving of the bishops and delegates of the General Conference of ihe M. t. Church South, at their late session in Nashville, Tenne ssee. The painting was made by Mr. Callows, and is now in the hands of the engraver. A corres pondent of the Christian Advocate says that it is ‘‘admirably conceived and handsomely executed. Here may be seen the venerable founder of Metho dism, John Wesley, occupying the pulpit, while just below on the platform stands prominently a full-length, life-like representation of the equally venerable Soule, theßenior bishop of the M. E. Church in America. Around him are his col* leagues, each one of whom can be recognized at a glance. Ranged along the wali, in the order of time from Wesley, are the portraits of Coke, Asbury, Whatcoat, McKondree, George, Roberts, and others, of the old regime of Methodism, lick ing us with the past, and awakening a thousand, endearing historic associations; while on the plat form and on the floor are grouped nearly two hundred ministers oflho present day, rnaoy of whose faces are familiar to us.” The photographs engravings and daguerreotypes in the possession of the engraver will enable him to bring out cor rect likenesses and imbody the details necessary for the perfection of the work. The engraving will cost six thousand dollars, and must necessari ly take a considerable length of time in its execu tion Asa work of art it will possess merits suf ficient to secure for it a general interest; and when considered with reference to the benevolent design of its author, it cannot be doubted that the enterprise will be crowned with success. The enterprise is sanctioned and recommended by ihe General Coiforence of the M. E. Church South. I will bo larger than any engraving of the kind heretofore published. Opening of the Tehuantepec Route. The steamship Quaker City, Capt. Shuteldt, left New York on Saturday, tor New Orleans, frem whence she will hereafter run regularly, ma king aemi-inontly trips to Minatitlan, with the California mail. Sho had about ninety passsngers and more freight than she was able to receivo,— Thus (says the Journal of Commerce) %ve have evidence that the important enterprise of opening anew highway between the two oceans is ap proaching a completion, and that the formidable obstacles which have presented themselves, during the progress of the work., have at length been suc cessfully overcome. The awarding ofa mail con tract to this route, by the United State Govern ment, no doubt operated as a substantial encour agement, and led to a more speedy opening thnn would otherwise have taken place. Including 180 tnen who left this port about the Ist of August, in the barque Rapid, there are now employed on the road between Suchiland Ventosa about 400 men; and thirty firat-clasa coaches are already on the ground or en route, to be employed in carrrying passengers to the opposite ocean Them are,also, three steamers which will be available for naviga ting the Coatzacoalcos river, between Minatitlan and Suchil, a distance ol 70 miles. “ One of the river steamer*, the Suchil, which sailed from New York a few day a ago, is a re markably fine one, being built ol iron, with thick bulkheads extending iengthwi.-e nod across, and fitted up with every requisite for safety and conven ience. “It is anticipated that passengera will go from New York to New Orleans in four days; from the latter port to Suchil, the head of navigation, in an equal length of time ; while two days will ba required for the carriage road. On reaching the Pacific terminus, the steamer Oregon will be in readiness to go up the coast, occupying ten days in the passage to San Francisco. The time oc cupied between New Orleans and San Francisco, it is said, will not exceed fifteen or sixteen days, at farthest. The Cotton Crop* i There is no subject upon which men affect to know so much and, in reality, know so littlo as the probaie yield of the cotton crop and the price which the staple will command in the markets of the world. lithe whole commercial world were interrogated upon these subjects, we could not reasonably expect the same answer to be returned by any two individuals, and if by accident, this coincidence should occur, there is a yet weaker probability that they would give the same reason for their faith. It is obviously, the interest of the planter to create the impression that there will be a short crop. In proportion as this belief gains currency,do speculators and manufacturers operato with boldness and confidence. ‘1 he legitimate tendency and effect of such a state of things is to impart an upward impulse to the market. On the contrary, it is no less to the advantage of the manufacturer to fasten upon the public mind the idea of a large crop. When this impression pre vails, holders become more willing to sell, a larger amount of cotton is pressed upon the market, the price recedes, banks, considering the risk reduced, advance for longer time and at easier rates, and the original outlay for material and the rate of in terest being thus diminished, the profits of the manufacturer are increased even where ihe ratio ‘of valuation between the raw and the manufac tured product is maintained. These two classes represent the extremes cf o inion up >n this subject. The safest position, perhaps, is somewhere near the half way ground between them. Oar own opinion, we confess has uudergone some change within the last few weeks; not in consequence of the increased receipts—oth er causes satisfactorily explain that feet—but be cause of the cheering reports and cheerful faces of many of our trionds upon w T hose supposed iil-for* tune we expended, but a short time ago, a large amouot of superfluous sympathy. But though our information thus necessitates a modification of our estimate of the crop, wo see no cause for ap prehending that the planter wiH- be forced to give away his cotton. Ho may continue to rush it in and force it to sale until he “cloys the hungry edge ofappeffe” in the manufacturer and specu lator, and may thus reduce the market value of his product; but this result will be chargsble to his own imprudence and not to the necessity of the case. However great may be the supply, it can not, under the existing prospect,equal the demand. omest,c manufacturers are turning every epm e n. eir power, and the foreign manufac turer. fcelmg the ,m P ulse which so great an event a. the opening of anew market for hie fabrics in acoun ry Mining one fourth of the human family if Mlttlartio Impart, will .train ewj nerve to its utmost tension in the effort to reach the farthest limit of his capacity lor production To those of our friends, then, who are not obliged to sell—who owe no money—we would say, don’t be in such a hurry. Yourcoitou is worth 11 or 12 cents, and by the exercise of a little patience, that price can be real zed.

D. Herndon. M. D, Secretary. Election Beturns. The returns from the recent elections held at the North Show that the Democrats who fought gallantly by the side of our ."outhern Representa tives on the Lecompton issue have fallen before the abolition sentiment, in reviewing the returns from Pennsylvania, we find that 11 democratic Representatives, who nobly stood with us have been cut down and wool-dyed Republicans now occupy their seats. J. (ilaucey Jones among others is defeated for his too honeat devotiou to the South. The democrats have only carried four districts out of the twenty five in this old Keystono State. In Ohio, the democrats have lost two Districts. The venerable Joshua Giddings is defeated by a brother Republican and Lewis D Campbell by that true States Rights democrat, Vanlandingham In Indiana, Hughes, Davis, and Gre?g have been defeated by Republicans. South Carolina, the old Congressmen were re-elected wiih the exception of Jamsa L- Orr, who w-as no candidate. Col. Ashmore is elected in his stead. Thus it will be seeo that the Democrats North who voted with the South upon the Lecompton issue were “digging their political graves.” Sudden Death.—Mr. Samuel D, Clark of this city was found dead this morning in his room.— He bore a good character and his sudden demise caused much sorrow among his friends. He was engaged in the drug business and one of the firm of Clarke and Iverson. The Coroner held an in quest over his body and returned a verdict that “he came to his death from some unknown cause.” Another Atlantic Cable to be Laid. We have been placed in possession of information confirming our statement in re gard to the intention of the British Gov ernment to lay a cablo between Ireland and Newfoundland. Arrangements vvilisoonbe made with the view of establishing com munication between those two points next year, in the event of their being unable to work through the present line. In this j matter the British Government are govern-j ed by their own interests, as they have j already experienced the advantage of being placed in direct connection with their colo nial possessions on this side of the ocean. ; Before the cable stopped working they were enabled to send two despatches of the greatest value and importance to the coin- j nial authorities; and having once practi- I cally realized the benefit tube derived from ! the line, it is their policy ;.nd their interest ! to re-establish the communication at the earliest possible moment. But the British Government is not the only party interested in the permanent success of the enterprise, for the London Board of Underwriters were also afforded an opportunity of appreciating its impor- I tance in a commercial point of view. The despatch that conveyed to them the intelli gence of the collision betweea the Europe and Arabia,could not be estimated by thous ands of dollars merely, and was in itself an incontrovertable proof of the indispensa- ! bility of the ocean telegraph. The enter prise must not, therefore, be regarded as a failure, but as a success, the complete re- j alization of which was prevented by what, after all, will only prove to be a temporary interruption. Meanwhile, we look forward with hope to the experiments that will soon be made bv the new batteries and instruments of Mr. Heoly, duplicates of which have, ere this, reached Trinity Bay station, under the j charge of Mr. Lundy, the English electri- j cian, whose despatch announcing his arri— i vsl at St. Johns has already appeared in ! the Hwald.— A”, Y. fftrold,, Our Relations with China. * The San Francisco Herald of the 21st of September, says; California will probably be the first coun try to feel the effect of the increased com merce which is to be carried on by virtue of the treaty just concluded. Our geo graphical position puts us in comparatively close proximity to the additional ports open ed to the trade of the world. The new order of things is of the highest importance to this State, and as far as materia! inter ests are concerned, not much inferior to the establishment of overland mail routes across the continent. We may reasonably expect that considerable of the trade in the valuable articles in which the Chinese mar kets abound, will be finally sent to the At lantic via San Francisco. Steam ship lines, in course of time, will be required by the interests of commerce, and the traffic in freight and passengers would make them highly remuneiative. A project to estab lish a line of steam ships between San Francisco and Shanghae has engaged the attention of Congress for several years.— The improved condition of our relations with China—the protection guaranteed to Christians in every part of the Empire, and thepresence hereafter ofour countrymen and Europeans at the various ports, will be motives at the next session to provide for the inauguration of steam communication between the two countries. There is another question involved in the treaty that concerns California and its legislation, affecting the Chinese. We have only seen a briefoudine of the treaty made by our Commissioner, Mr. Reed, and we are, therefore, unable to say whether it con tains any provisions granting to the natives of China the right of visiting and protec tion in the United States. It is usual when one conn'ry confers privileges on the citi zens of a >other, that the favor is reciprocat ed, and the Chinese statesmen are not ig noiant of the customs of civilized nations in that respect. It is reasonable to assume that some such clause is contained in the treaty. If this should prove true, it is doubtful if our statute, which goes into op eration on the first of next m nth, restrict ing the immigration ol Chinese, will oe op erative. it has been decided by the Su preme Court of the United States, and by our highest tribunal, that individual States have no p >wer to impose taxes upon alien pas-.engers. The authority is with Con gross, in whom is vested, by the Constitu tion, the right to regulate commerce. Toe States can enforce no law in vio!a tion of any treaty with China, but it is a question if treaties are not negotiated sub ject to existing laws in civilized countries. However, it is a condition of international law that ail foreigners are admitted into countries or condition of obeying their laws. Except to guard against disease and pau pers, the municipal power of the State can not prohibit the introduction of foreigners, and we suppose like ground will be taken in contesting the validity of the act passed by the last Legislature. But this may not be necessary if the treaty guarantees to the natives of China protection in our country. It was approved by the Emperor immedi ately, and though a year is allowed the United States for its final ratification, there is every reason to believe it will be prompt ly sanctioned by our Government. When the treaty is finally ratified and published, we ihirik the law to prevent their further immigration into California must give way, if such a stipulation as we have referred to is included in its provisions. From the Savannah Republican. A Just Tribute. Gratitude, no less than a sense of justice, prompts me to a public expression of my high appreciation of the kindness and at tention of the Methodists of Savannah, du ring the five weeks just past, of the illness iof myself and family. During that time, j my every want has not only been supplied, but, in most instances anticipated by them. From the first, proffers of service were made abundantly above what 1 could have asked, or there was room to accept. The junior editors of the News and the Republican , and the family of Mr. L. N. Fail igant, not of the Methodist congrega tions,likewise deserve to be specially named i in this connection; the two former of whom, | with their energetic seniors in office, seem- I ed determined either to write down the panic or nurse it out. And now, Mr. Edi j ior since no ne has taken in hand to chron i icle the fact, allow me to state to the praise j of Savannah, that the above is not an iso : lated case; but from many persons a like j tribute is duo to the same or different par- I ties. I So far as 1 have seen in my visitations to | the sick or have heard from others, not a single case has been allowed to suffer for attention or medical aid, after the fact tran spired. Private individuals, whose praise cannot be written, have from time to time canvassed the various portions of the city and enquired for the sick and the destitute, while the city authorities and the benevo lent associations of the place, have been not only prompt, but forward to send money and good nurses whenever they were need ed. While tiie charitable provisions for the destitute have been more than adequate to the wants of the season, the hand of friend-’ ship has been ever ready to relieve the suf ferings of those in better circumstances.— My experience and observation both incline me to the conclusion, that if one must be sick, it is good to'be sick in Savannah. W. H. Potter. Savannah, Ga ,Oct. 15,1858. Wearing Apparel — The London Med ical T mes contains an article on the above subject by Dr. Collier, who has been inves tigating scientifically the nature of different habiliments as agents for protecting soldiers against hieh heat. By placing a thin layer of white cotton over a soldier’s red woolen doth coat, exposed to the sun in India, a fall of seven degrees in its temperature soon took place, hence he recommends that the colored clothing of soldiers should be cov ered with white cotton cloth when they are marching in the hot sunshine. All kinds of clothing he found were capable of ab sorbing a quantity of moisture from the body. Woolen cloth absorbs the greatest amount, and cott n the least. From this we should conclude that cotton flannel was better than woolen flannel for under gar-* raents, an opinion quite contrary to the one generally entertained. The color of cloth ing has very little sensible influence in ref erence to the heat of the body, leaving sol ar heat oui of the question. Black, white, red, blue and brown clothes are equally warn*, tbsir competition and texture bing equal in all other respects,— Scientific Amcr * icon , Telegraphic. REPORTED FOR THE COLUMBUS TIMES.

Notwithstanding he had previ-* ously asserted that lie had to ratify the Cass-Yrissari treaty and to finally arrange all matters pertaining thereto, with out the necessity ofrefering it back to Nica ragua, it appears from the official document just submitted by him to the State Depart ment, and of which a translation was imme diately made, that he is emdowered only to act “in order that the amendments made by the Assembly of Nicaragua lo the treaty may be substantially carried into effect.”— This is the language employed, but it is not j considered sufficient to meet tho demands !of our Government. The Secretary of | State will have a consultation with thePres | ident on the subject to-morow, and Gener ■ al Jerez will soon thereafter be informed of ! the result. Ills mission is gendrally con | sidered at an end, and unless he has docu- I manta of a more satisfactory character to present, he will shortly be dismissed.

How to Preserve Beauty. —Nothing is more becoming to a man or woman, than a beautiful and luxuriant head ot hair, and a woman’s beau ty is certainly incomplete without a fair complex ion, and he or she who neglects the o gmat and important adornments of nature must expect to suffer the mortification of premature baldness, and a wrinkled face and a sallow skin.
