Calest in Gloves.
A Parisian fashionable authority
gives this advice to the ladies about
gloves: Gloves for the evening, flesh
colored, straw colored, or very light
gray. White gloves for the opera.
Gloves for the day should be of leude
neturclle. Even for formal visits in
day time, straw colored gloves are in
bad taste; white gloves are actually
proscribed, even for attending a mar
riage.
1101 for Cuba!

Fine Potatoes*,
We are indebted to the courtesy of
Judge Samuel Levy, Ordinary, for a

tatoes, raised on the Richmond County-
Poor House Farm, near this city, for
which he will please accept our thanks.
The Judge informs us that he has

Death from Lock-Jaw.
We copied, a few (Jays ago, from
the Savannah News, an item stating
that Captain Edward B. McFarland,
while playing a game of ten-pins, ami
in the act of picking up a ball from
the floor, ran a splinter under the nail
of the middle finger of the right hand,
which caused so much pain as to com
pel his removal to the Hospital. The
News of yesterday states that Captain
McFarland, after suffering all the
fearful agonies of lock-jaw, died on
Sunday last. The News adds:
Captain McFarland came from
West Trenton, Maine, and arrived
here about ten days ora fortnight ago,
in charge of the brig Triumph, which
sailed for Philadelphia on Thursday
last. He was comparatively a stran
ger here, but received every attention
and kindness from the friends he had
made during bis short stay. He was
a member of the Masonic Fraternity.
The flags of the shipping in port
were displayed at half-mast yesterday,
in respect for the memory of the gal
lant Captain, and his remains were
followed to the grave by a number-of
seafaring comrades ami others who
had attended to his wants while sick.
Dau Castello’s Camels.
The Savannah Republican, of yes
terday, contains the following: “The
Camels have come! We dropped
into the mammoth pavillion of Dan
Castello, between nine and ten
o’clock last night, and found every
seat occupied, and five or six hundred
persons standing, and altogether there
must have been at least twenty-five
hundred persons present. Not being
able to find a seat, we remained but a
short time, and witnessed but a very
small portion of the performance.
What we did see, however, was fully
equal, if not superior, to any feats of
the ring that we have ever seen.
There were a large number of ladies
present, who appeared to enjoy the
amusements of the circus.”
What a Leading New Yorker
TliinkH.
A friend—a distinguished Geor
gian—has kindly permitted us to make
the following extracts from a letter
recently received by him from a lead
ing citizen of New York:
New Yoiik, Nov. 14th, 1868.
* * lam glad you think well and
hopefully of General Grant. His election
and administration seem to me to offer away
out of our troubles; and I know of nothing
else that does. I believe him honest, patri
otic, and of generous instincts. I don’t think
the South has anything to fear from him,
and that if the leading men of the State will
Start with the determination to help him,
rather than to break him down, they will
find him full of sympathy, and disposed to
aid them in every way.
The Southern outrages on life and liberty
just before the election contributed greatly
to the bad feeling of the North. Deduct all
exaggerations, and all falsehoods, still there
was enough left to create resentment, and to
lead the North to believe that the old spirit
of domination, absolute and unchecked, still
survived, and was in danger of regaining the
ascendancy. The South ought to correct
Ulis error, if it be one, and to reform the
evil out of which it grows.
I hope we shall have pawc,” everywhere,
and that the two sections will be better
friends than ever, and be better able to pro
mote the welfare of the whole country. * * *
I am, as ever, very truly yours, etc.

[From tho Circular of William Bryce Co.
Weekly Cotton Review-
New York, November 20.
GENERAL REMARKS.—Crop accounts
this week have been universally favorable,
and the picking season has been longer than
planters anticipated. Slight frosts have
occurred in some sections, but no damage
can be done by frost after this late date. As
remarked in our last circular, the length of
the picking season, and the insignificant dis
turbance of labor caused -by the elections,
have given rise to larger crop estimates, and
we find two and a half million rather an
inside figure among the trade at this point.
Great stress is laid on the excess of receipts
this season over last year same time; and
tables made on the basis of direct compari
sons afford huge totals. A careful examina
tion of the receipts show the total increase to
be on New Orleans and Texas, while on
Savannah, Charleston and Mobile an actual
decrease am be observed. In our opinion,
thy movement of the crop thus far indicates
only an extraordinarily early season in the
Southwest, and that planters are abundantly
satisfied with prices which have ruled since
September. It is claimed by some that re
ceipts would be far heavier than they are if
planters were not too much engaged in
picking to send to market what was already
picked. A variety of reasons anises this
thing to be discredited, especially by those
whose relations with planters are most inti
mate. Individual experience proves that the
fanners have disposed of their cotton about
as rapidly as usual; that is, it has been sent
to the ports nod counted, whether intended
for immediate sale or to bo held. Again, the
means of trans)x>rtation are greater titan ever
before, and if, in this connection, we regard
prices which have ruled, a much more rapid
crop movement should have occurred, if the
extent of the yield was as great as claimed.
Again, the ability of the hands engaged this
year in cotton culture, to “ pick out” the
"enormous cron estimated by some people,
must be considered, and it does not seem pos
sible that the force engaged could save two
and three-quarter million bales from the
acreage planted, which known, by the Gov
ernment reports, to be some ten per cent, less
than last year.
While on this point, it is profter to say
that, while it might lie possible for the num
ber of negroes employed to pick out the
above total if the plants grown were suffi
ciently fruited, yet it is an acknowledged
fact that the fruiting lias not been remarka
bly close this season; and, moreover, the
quality of the cotton which has come and is
coming to the ports, does not indicate any
great superabundance of open Ik>lls at the
time of gathering. Taking a general view
of the matter, we sec nothing us yet to war
rant a belief in tho two and three-quarter
million bides, and think tliat disinterested
estimates of the above amount are made with
too little attention to the number of hands
employed, acres planted, means of transpor
tation and the inducements to sell held out
by the markets rrincc BcpUnUbCT. 11l regard
. ing the fine weather of the past thirty days,
the damage done in August and September
by rain, rust, worm and caterpillar should
not be forgotten; nor should the fact be
overlooked that it will require a very large
increase in the crop at the West to make up
the certain decrease in the out-turn of the
Atlantic States, and add three hundred and
odd thousand bales to the total crop of 1867-
68. The weekly receipts continue to be
watched with the closest attention, and the
widest difference of opinion exists as to the
amount of cotton which will be received
between now and January. There is a grow
ing feeling that these receipts will be less
than estimated a fortnight since, and that
the number of bales counted in December
will run short of what was counted lust year
in the same month. If this thing prove
correct, and if prices run under 20c. in the
interior, we think that no great decline in
Liverpool will occur, and there will be a gen
eral reduction of estimates both there and
here. If the crop comes forward in this way,
the cotton year of 1868-69 will be marked by
no violent fluctuation in price; and instead
of a Spring rise, we may sec a tendency to
discount the succeeding crop, which seems
likely to be enormous, if the present crop
sells at the prices now promised.

P £ A !? FOLLOWING LETTER FROM
AV Rev. R Telford, Missionary in China, now
visiting his home m Pennsylvania:
Washington, P*.,Jun«25,1866.
Aresrrr. Perry Deets <t Son. Providence, R. l.r
Dear Sirs—During a residence of some ten
years as a Missionary in Siam and China,! found
your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable
remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera.
In ttdminuitering .the medicine, I found it most
effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a
gill of hot water sweetened with sugar; then,
after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table
spoonful of the same mixture every minnte until
relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to
tho extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain
Killer, clear and rub the limbs briskly. Os those
who had the cholera, and took the medicine faith
fully in the way stated above; eight out of ten
recovered. Yours, truly,
R TELFORD.
If an attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
Cramp Colic, don’t delay the use of the’ Pain
Killer. Sold by all medicine dealers. Price, 25
cents, 59 cents,"and $1 per bottle.
Manhattan, Kansas, April 17,1866.
Gentlemen— * * ” I want to say a little
more about the Pain Killer, I consider it a very
valuable medicine, and always keen it on hand.
I have travelled n good deal since I have been in
Kansas, and never without talcing it with me.
In my practice I used it freely for the Asiatic
Cholera, in 1849, and with better success than any
other medicine ; I also used it here for cholera in
1855, with tho same good result.
Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. D.
Swato, China.
Cholexa l***l regret to say that the
cholera has prevailed here of late to a fearful
extent. For the last three weeks, from ten to
fifty or sixty fatal cases, each day has been re
ported. I snoald add. that the Pain Killer, sent
recently from the Mission House, has been used
with considerable success during this epidemic.
If taken in season is generally effectual in check,
ing the disease.
Rev, CHARLES HARDINIG.
Bholapore, India.
[From the Portland Monthly J
Summer Complaint and Dysentery.
Bowel complaints seem jnst now to be the
prevailing element, and any medicine that is
everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable, is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we have
seen, beard, and experienced, we. believe Davis'
Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best
method of using if, we quote from the directions:
“For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonful in a gill of new milk ana molasses, in'
equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose
for children, according to the age. If tho pain be
severe, bathe the bowels aud back with the medi
cine. This mode of treatment is good in cases of
the cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, etc. Re
peat the dose every hour.
“The quickest way I ever saw the dysentery
cured was by taking one spoonful of the Pain
Killer in one" gill of milk and molasses stirred
well together aud drank hot, at the same time
bathing the bowels freely with medicine. Let
the dose bo repeated every hour until the pgtient
is relieved.”
If every person wlio baa reason to fear this
disease would provide themselves with a bottle
of this medicine, and use as occasion required, we
believe a great amount of suffering and sickness
would he caved. jel2—2m
