THE lIAII.Y TIMES. WEDNFSDAY OCTOBER 20. Marriage Statistics m England- The rife or decline of a nations prosperity i marked by the iucroasc or diminution of marriages solemnized from year to year, It has grown to be an infallible test with tho e who have bestowed ; time and attention upon the subject. Hence the recent controversy in England in which learned essays were penned to prove that she was retro grading in greatness and tending towards social depravity from a partial exhibition ol statistics ot marriage vows. The report, however, of the Registrar General retire* the popular idea that there is a decrease o* marriage contracts and wedding* The stptistics exhibit an increase amoDg tho?e m images solemnized by license over those sol emnized by bans, and the infereuqg* is drawn that the upper or middle classes are more given to mar riage than the Tower. An analysis of the figures, though apparently as meaningless as a tableoflogarithms—giving the ages ol contracting parties, proves another fact in the history of marriages in England—that tfle number of early marnge or marriages of minor? hate increased over olhers in a gn-at ratio since the year 1843. It thows that 5 per cent of all men and 18 percent of all women married under age. Another deduction touching the progress of na tional education is obtained from the table. The contracting parties tign their names or in default of ability make their marks. The comparison of marks and signatures evidences the lact that the “School-master is abroad,” Tie Registrar-General in analysing the figures reflects “a curious light on our social combina tions.” Those who can write and are well edu cated, intermarry with those who are illiterate and cannot sign their names. The number of these mairiages is large. The classification of tne Register revrals anoth er important feature in the history of marriages —that tha marriages solemniz. and by bans and confined to the lower classes indicate with bar ometrical nicety tho standard of plenty or scar city for the year. The price of wheat really mea sured ihe matriages. In times of the greatest prosperity tho number of marriages by bans would be increased, acd dimin ished greatly i.i times of adversity. From this fact, we pay England the compliment, that her poor men never propose in marriage without the prospect of a competency to provide for a house hold. America may well follow her example. Southern Literary Organ and Review. The first number ot the above periodical is on our table. It is published at Memphis Tenn., and is edited by Rev. Benjamin H. Capers. The first article in the number before U3 is from the pen of theeditor, on the subject of “Southern literature’’ and abounds in just and original thoughts and many proofs of a fine discriminating faculty. The Rev. P. P Neely, D D ,whose distinguished inerij as a pulpit orator is yet fresh in the remembrance of many of our readers, is also a contributor to the specimen number. Under such auspices it would seem almost superfluous to wish the enter prise success. Jf it laii, it will but sharpen the point of condemnation -already justly directed against the Southern people, for the imperial pat ronage they lavish upon Northern periodicals, while they sutler our homo literature to languish and die.

The Cotton Crop -Cotton opened early and was brought to market early—so early, that it is qnito likely to make a very erroneous impression as to the extent of the crop.

Trial of J. R Graves. Nashville, Oct. lGth 1859# The trial of Rev. J. R. Graves, alluded 11 in my last, came up at the First Baptist Church on Tuesday, 12th inst. The church was crowded, and great curiosity was man ifested to hear the triai. After a number of preliminary motions, the charges against the accused were read, and when asked whether lie admitted or denied the charges, he responded—*‘l deny.” * A motion to non-suit the charges, for in formality, was earned, when Mr. Graves was permitted to speak in his own defence. He then read a protest against any further proceedings until scriptural steps had been taken to settle the difficulty. He urged other reasons why the trial was premature, —and stated tf at he was ready and willing j to meet an investigation if it were made ac- J cording to the New Testament. The question was put after some discus- i sion on the motion to remand the whole proceedings on the ground cf informality, j and last, —11 for remanding, and 98 for ira* i mediate trial. Mr. Graves, after a few remarks, stated that he could not fellowship with the Church any more, and announced his with drawal. The Modelator stated that Mr. Graves himself had held that the only way to get out of the Baptist Church washy death or exclusion. Mr. Graves claimed that when a Church tramples upon the law of Christ, it becomes a faction, and not a church. On a motion to adjourn, the congregation were requested to remain after adjournment, and those who had voted against the imme diate trial of Mr. Graves organized anoth er meeting.—A paper was then read, which claimed that the persons whose names were appended constituted tho Fiist Baptist j Church, and’hat the majority who voted for sustaining the charges, were factionists. This statement was signed by about 20 members of the First Baptist Church. Mr. Graves then requested the body to call a council of two ministers from each Church in the association,to investigate the j charges against him. The meeting then adjourned to meet Sunday afternoon. On the next day, those who were for immediate trial proceeded with an examin ation, and on the question, whether Mr. Graves was guilty of the tirsj charge (as published in my last letter) there was a unanimous vote in the affirmative. The investigation will be continued to-night. Tho result of this investigation was the unani mous finding of Mr. Graves guilty of the first j charge of the series preferred against him, to wit: “Bringing reproach and injury upon Rev. R. B. C, Howell, pastor of the First Baptist Church, and thus to destroy his character and influence in the Southwest,” and the publication of “various false and malicious misrepresentations-” Business on the Railroads—lncreasing Cotton Crop, and so on. The subjoined comparative statement | obtained from the books of the South-wes tern Railroad Company, while it is a gold, en exhibit for the Road, illustrates also the rapidity will) which the crop is coming to market. Due allowance should be made, however, for the effect of the extension of the road since last year.

We will make particular enquiry. The Savannah Republican of recent date says that the earnings of the Central Road for September, were $157,726,19 against $98,767,40 in September, 1857—and for the first seven working days in October, $51,995,59 against $31,970,27 for the cor responding period last year. In Septem ber, 1858, 28,005 bales cotton were recei ved, against 6,127 in September, 1857; and in lourteen working days in October, 40,283 bales of cotton had come over the Road.— These figures show the combined effect of an early fall—very favorable weather for picking, and an anxious desire among plan ters to push their cotton to market as early as possible. The calculation among the Railroad and Warehouse men is also for a very heavy increase itt the cotton crop of Georgia. Punch on Printers.—How nice this be- j ing a printer. A public servant, and we! nigh the slave of the deviita good naturedl fellow, must be killing polite on all occa sions, especially to ladies, must always be a dear duck of a man, always witty; always dignified, must never do anything that would not accord with the strictest sense of propriety of the most precise old maid, and must always be correct in what he says and does; is always expected to know the latest news, is styled muggins if he is not always posted, must of course-please every body, and certainly is supposed never to be in need of the “one thing needful,” must work for nothing, board yourself, must trust everybody, and is thought a great bore if should present his bill, must be a ladder for all politicial aspirants to step into office, who very soon become indepen dent, don’t owe him anything, consider the printer at best a sorry dog, who cannot ex pect any better treatment than kicks, and finally summing it up. he is expected to be “a man without a model and without a shadow.” Holloway’s Filt,s are a Remedy hailed by a.i as the best annihilate.! of the internal diseases most common to the human family, including dvsp psia, bile, sick headache, and all febrile and inflammatory influences.

Mr. Punch has great pleasure (at the request of numerous American friends) in devoting a portion of his invaluable space to the immortalizing a few of the addresses transmitted from the various Stales to New York in honor of the Atlantic Cable. He must remark, however,that in magnificence of imagination and affluence of diction, they scarcely equal, and they assuredly do not transcend, the splendid effusions re pubhshod in the Times newpaper from the American journals, which record tbe cele bration in question. From the Governor of Connecticut I salute ye. The deed is done. Anew heart.string, forgotten at creation, has been inserted into the world, and henceforth its pulses will keep time to the flapping of the wings of our almighty and inextinguisable eagle. May the blood of freedom course along that giant vein with the rush of Niag ara, and sweep away before its mightiness the moultfbriug cerements of antiquated hallucination. From the Governor of Missouri. When the heart would speak in presence of a miracle, the words are feeble; but our souls rueh out in song; and we sing to you brothers, in the strains ol our native and inirndable land: “London.it is very b ; g, America ia bigger; Do not lot us care a fig Which cuts the better figure. Send the current to and fro, The bottle round the table, Nothing increation.no, Licks the Atlantic Cable. From the Governor of Alabama . ; Haii Columbia, happy land! Now fast linked to England’s sand, Let us join with heart and hand. Ocean is repealed. To her coral rocks and shelves. Lo the cable dives and delves. Let us drink our noble j selves. Likewise Cyrus Field. From, the Governor of Ohio. If England has given us no more towards our great American sea triumph, she has given us a thought in the name of her little vessel which waited upon our giant fleet. The Agamemuon’s name is a corruption of Memnon, the ancient Hebrew warrior, whose statue, on the plains of Tessaly, ounded out one note when the morning sun shone upon it. So now, when the sun of enlightenment dawns from America upon Occidental darkness, the electric ray flashes from us to the Hibernian shore, may the inexpressive slaves of feudalism for the first time raise the music note of liberty. From the Governor of New Hampshire. Yankee Doodle used to ride On a little pony, Now he talks t’other aide In twenty minutes on’y. From the Governor of Deleumre. The b’hoys must have their amusements, and so we’ve tied England to a long string, and we’ll fly her like an almighty great kite. When we’re tired of the sport, and want to be quit of it, we calculate we’ll just wind her in, and hang her up on one of the mon ster trees of our unfathomable forests.— Guess we’ve utilized the tarnation old cau tion at last; yes, se. ree. From the Governor of Virginia. “Ole Virginny never tire, But dance on dis electric wire. Clear de kitchen, &c.” From the Governor of Pennsylvania. Friend Field, thee have, according to worthy evidence, done a part of thy task, and it is well. When thee hast fastened both ends of thy string, and the fixings, and hast greatly and finely reduced the price of thy messages, we may see cause for further communication with thee. Meantime,friend we wish thee success, but decline to burn money in fireworks, melt it in strong li quors. or waste it in wasting time upon idle ! demonstrations. Amen! From the Governor of Louisiana. “Two nations in two different ages, riz, Stand prominently out ot the abyss, One, England, a respectable old hoss, And one, America, ot giant torce. The power of Nature could no further go, So made C. W. Field to join the two.” This is all the room Mr. Punch can this week spare to these remarkable productions, and he will only add, that it does not ap pear to him wonderful that under such terrific pressure and strain of compliment, the unfortunate cable, being of English make and unused to hyperbole, gave way, and sent down shares.from J 6915 to £250. Earnings of the Central Railroad.— The earnings of the Central Railroad for Sept., 1858, were $157,726,19, against $98,767,40 for Sept., 1857. The earnings from Ist Oct. instant, to the Bth inst. inclusive—seven working davs— have been $51,995,49; against $31,970,27 for the same period last year. The quantity of cotton brought into the yard in this city in Sept. 1858. was 28,005 bales, against 5,127 bales in Sept. 1857’ The down freight from Ist to lGth Oct fourteen working days—has been 40,283 bales of cotton; 5,042 barrels of flour; 8,319 sacks of flour; 21,348 bushels of wheat, 2,392 bushels of corn; 506 bales domestics; 28 boxes copper; besides considerable par cels of dried fruit, hides &c. &c. It is believed that the earnings for the whole month of October, will be near if not quite $200,000 against $99,070,55 in Oct. 1857. In noticing the evidences of prosperity, it is but due to the officers and men of the Company that we should say a word of commendation for the nerve and fidelity with which they have stood to their post’s and forwarded this immense amount of bus iness during a season characterised by so much sickness and still greater alarm. Through it all they have manfully maintain ed their ground, and faithfully performed all their duties. Their conduct entitles them to the gratitude of the Company and to the praise of all.— Sav .
