Means. Editora.*—'Tho last four days have wit
nessed at this placo a series ol exorcises, which
hnvo their special charms for an American scholar.
Tho gala days of Cullego Commencement aro hail
ed by tho gay and tho beautiful, by anxious paronta,
by sympathizing friends, and by aspiring students,
with an interest entirely peculiar, and unequalled
by almost any other kind ol festival. Thoimmenso
throng from regions for and near, who gathored for
successive days, at this Commencement, would of
itself bespeak tho interest of tho occasion. In this
brief sketch, wo cannot attempt to characterize tho
merits of Iho several performances, and can only
noto down tho leading ovctits, and iho moro prom
inent actors.
By previous appointment, iho nnnual sortnon was
prenclied on Sunday morning, by Hcv. J. I’. Tus-
tin, of your city. His subject wna our Dependence
on the Pant. On tho evening of tho same day, tho
annual discourse was preached by Prof. James C.
Furman, of Furman University, S.C., whoso thomo
was Christian Self-denial.
On Monday tho Prize Declamation was contend
ed lor by eighteen members of tho Sophomoro
Class, i he highest premiums being awarded tu J. M.
Campbell, of Griflin, and T. W. Brevard, of Tal
lahassee, Florida, and grades of merit, equivalent
to these first, were assigned by the Judges to W. G.
Johnson, of Oglethorpe, F. K. Wimberly, of
Twiggs, T. C. Boykin, oi Columbus, and T. U
West, of Wilkes.
On Tuesday forenoon tho exhibition of the Ju
nior Class took place, in a series of original per
formances highly creditable to uny class of under
graduates. In the afternoon of tho same day, tits
Alumni of the College were addressed by Mulcom
D. Jones, Esq., of Burke county, in a manly and
forcible manner, showing tho duty of American
scholars towards dteir own colleges and their own
Naw York, July 29.—Cotton.—1500 hales were sold

Graham’s Magazine, lor August, with its usual
promptness, has been received, nnd we find it
abounding in rich nnd varied miscellaneous literary
manor. The leading articles are: "The Rhine and
ito Soonory,” and “ The Pilgrims of the great St.
Bernard,’’ both embellished with pim.irial illustra- i
tions; “'Pablo Talk about Thomas MooreA ‘
Bird's Kyo View of Japan," illustrated. 'Phis num -

tinuatiuns of several interesting tales. |
We learn that a rencontre occurred yesterday in !
Currytown between two individuals, during which \
one of them was stnhbed in tho back with a pocket
knife ; alcohol, it is said, was the incentive, nnd leg
bail the security for the sanguinary combatant. We
could not ascertain whether the wounded parly was
seriously injured.

Gentlemen : I have the pleasure to receive tho
gilts borne and presented by Captain Morgan, in
the name of “ merchants, underwriters, ship-mas-
tors, and others engaged in foreign trade."
1 am at n loss tor expression, and hope, thcrclore,
gentlemen of the committee, you will dome the
favor to convey in suitable terms my acknowledge
ments for this handsome present.
In making known the considerations which
moved tiie dmiurs to distinguish me with honors
and lavishing kindness, you have been pleased in
your letter to speak of mo and my labor in very
high terms; and when 1 recollect the men by
whom and in whose names these things are said,
1 perceive in your words something that is moro
precious than silver or gold. There is virtue, gen
tlemen, in the " well done” of such men.
The merchants underwriters, shipmasters and
others, for whom you speak, are the men bv the
aid of whoso enterprise, energy and skill, Ncw-
York has become the commercial emporium of
this continent, and the mercantile marine of our
country the admiration of the world.
The approbation, therefore, of such men concern
ing the Value ol my labors, and as to which they
aro the best of judges, not only cheers and encour
ages mo to renewed ehurts, but it strengthens my
hands for good. I thank you, gentlemen, for tlii9
holp; I thank you for mo and mine ; 1 thank you
in the name ol my brother oflieers and co-luburers
in this work of catechising the sea and the air for
information that is useful to man. We feel that
you have enlarged for us the privilege ol doing
good. If an important result has been elicited now
and then, it is to their patient,persevering,toilsome
labor that I am indebted for it. They do the work,
while 1. like the priest of old, with his oracle, mere
ly stand between the public and them, to give form
and expression to tho truths they elicit.
Reciprocating your kind wishes for health nnd
happiness, I have the honor, gentlemen, to be, your
very much obliged friend and servant,

Cotton ae the Crystal Palace.—Wo are in
formed that samples of cotton exhibited at tho Crys
tal Palace were submitted to the examination of a
committee of three gentlemen of our city, two of
them cotton brokers and tho other a merchant, for
their opinions on its merits—they decided the sam
ples were beautiful in tho highest degree; that tho
ono marked B, of Dr. Samuel Bund, of Memphis,
Tenn., was most attractive in color: but tho one
marked A, exhibited by Colonel John Pope, of
Memphis, Tenn., was superior in fineness of sta
ple, belter ginned, and was entitled to the prefer
ence. The latter satnplo is tho product of a now
variotvof cotlon called tho golden seed, obtained
from Central Mexico. Its pceulinr excellence is
its unrivalled fineness of staple and tho large size
of its bolls. Colonel John Popoobtnincd the prize

Mr. Editor:—I have just time to say to you
that Monday last was tried to be made a "big day"
by the reunited of old Henry. It will he recollect
ed that the attempt to nominate candidate!! for tho
Legislature on the lirst Tuesday in .lime, was ad
journed over by the miternlied to the -lilt Monday
inst., that being Inferior Court day. Well. Mon
day came, and as I suppose by invitation, llerschel
V. Johnson and W. B. W. Dent entne also. When
the court adjourned fur dinner, the convention was
called ; hut instead ol proceeding to nominate can
didates, a committee was appointed to invite Messrs.
Johnson ami Dent to address the people. Being
anxious to hear what the “cuon killer" might have
to say tor himself, I took a convenient seat and
awaited iiis arrival, lie was introduced by Mr.
Glenn and spoke for an hour, in a labored ctl'ii to
convince the people that ihey ought to sustain the
administration of Mr. Pierce, because ho was elect
ed by the democratic parly, ami (as a matter id
course) the wav to sustain .Mr. Pierce was to elect
him Governor." I had often heard .Mr. Johnson
spoken ot as a man of talents, hut if hi< eliort on
inis occasion was a far sample of his abilty, he has
indeed been much overrated. He was dull ami
prosy, with no point or pith, and all that is ne
cessary to beat him 20,000 votes is just such a
speech from him in every county ot the State. He
did m»t elicit a single cheer (luring his whole har
angue,amt the chagrin and disappointment of those
who invited him there was plainly visible in lln-ir
countenances. He will have to do mm-h better, be
fore tb>- people of old Henry can be induced to be
lieve he possesses anything like c.\|iordinary tal
ents.
Alter he had concluded, Mr. Deni.took the stand
and commenced by saying he was “no speaker,"
but he mi;'lit easily have saved himself that trouble,

Mis Majesty the Emperor, my august lord and |
moBtor, hits ordered mo to occupy your country
with tho armies, the command of which ho hasi
designed to conndo to mo.
Wocomo among you noithcr with projects ol
conquest, nor with tho intention to modify tho in
stitutions under which you livo, or tho polttie.nl I
position which solemn treaties have guarantied I
to you.
The provisional occupation of tho Principalities,
which I nnt ordered to ellcct, is for no other pur
pose than that of an immediate and etiieacious
protection in grnvo and untorsccn circumstances,
when tho Ottomnn government, distrusting the
numerous proofs of n sincere alliance which the
imperial Court has never censed to give it, since
tho conclusion ol tho treaty of Adriauoplo, replica
to our most oquiinblo proposals with refusals, and
opposes tho most oll'cnsivo suspicions to our dis
interested advice. .
In his magnanimity, in his constant desire to
niaintaiii pcuce in the Fast as well as in Europe,
tho Emperor will avoid an aggressive war with
Turkey, so long us his dignity and the interests ol
his empire ahull permit him so to do.
On the dny on which he obtains tho reparation
which is due him, and the guaranties which ho has
a right to claim lor the future, his troops shall re
turn within the frontiers of Russia.
Inhabitants of Moldavia ami Wallneltia! I also
execute an order of His Imperial Majesty in de
claring to you that tho presence of llis Majesty’s
troops in your country shall not Impose on you
any J'rcsh charges or contributions; that the fo
rage and rations lor the troops shall, in due time,
and at a rate appointed and agreed on in advance
by your governments, be paid for from our military
treasury.
Look tranquilly to tho future! Engage with se
curity in your agricultural labors and commercial
speculations! Be obedient to the laws under which
you live, nnd to the established authorities, lt is
by the faithful discharge ol these duties that you
will acquire the host claim to the generous solici
tude anil the powerful protection of Ilia Majesty,
the Emperor. (Signed.) Gortschakoff.
The new manifesto ol Count Nesselrode was
published in the Journal of St. Petersburg, Juno
20 (O. S.) lt is an important document. The
following is a synopsis:
The noto is entitled " Russian Notification to the
European Powers"—Circular—and is addressed to
“ Mr. diplomatic agent, vtc." Commences by
reminding that his (Nesselrode's) circular of May
30, notified tho rupture ot Russian diplomatic rela
tions with tho Ottoman government—that Russia
had narrowed its demand to the simple signature
of a note, which, except in what particularly con
cerns the holy places, did not contain in respect of
the general guarantee claimed in favor of the
church, anything more than a simple confirmation
of what Russia has long possessed—that it this de
mand were, not complied with, within eight days,
by thu Porte, measures more decisive than simple
rupture of relations would be taken ; and in ma
king this ultimatum, Russia lias given particular
explanations to the great powers—had especially
requested of Franco and England not to complicate
tin* ditliculiics of the situation by their attitude.
This two fold request was unheeded; Turkey re
fused the ultimatum, and the two matitimc powers
not having thought til to defer the considerations
recommended to their serious attention"—tncy
had sent their lleets into the waters of Constanti
nople. By dial advanced attilmb-, the two powers
have placed Russia under the weight of a threat
ening demonstration, which, as they were forewarn
ed, has added now complications to the crisis. Con
sequent on this refusal, and tins demonstration,
the Russian Iroops station'd III Bessarabia had
entered the principalities, imt to make an olfonsivo
war upon the Porte, but to substitute f*T moral
guarantee a material guarantee, and to re-establish
the equilibrium ot the reciprocal situations by (a
j king a military position, inasmuch as Russia re-
! gards the presence of the lleets m Turkish waters
as a maritime occupation. But, luriher than this
' Russia has rm intention to hold tin- position longrt

AWorptoour Friends.—The price of good
government is elorital vigilance ; ami as it is well
worth it, no man who values his liberty should ho
lound wanting in vigilance in such a canvass as
the present. This is a contest between Conserva
tism on the one hand, and Radicalism and Filibus-
tcrism on the oilier—between the Secessionists who
arc supporting Johnson, and the 1’nion men who
support Jenkins. There is no avoiding tins issue,
however the Secessionists may seek to shield
themselves under the mantle of Democracy. But
two years ago, Johnson nnd the massot Ills present
supporters were open and avowed advocates of Se
cession, which is but another name for Revolution
and Disunion.
They have never, on any occasion since, re
nounced or repudiated a single principle they then
put forth. Finding, however, that they and their
principles w« ro obnoxious to the people, they now
seek to obtain power by proclaiming themselves
Democrats—a party ami party name, which they
repudiated in their mad zeal lor Secession and dis
union, and only now avail themselves of it to ob
tain power. That accomplished, they will claim
il as a triumph of secession and disunion, a direct
approval, jiy the people of Georgia, of their favorite
scheme of a Southern Confederacy. Let the peo
ple reflect nnd bo admonished, ere they commit
themselves to the support of such men and such
measures.

done in the oilier descriptions to establish a market.
