There were forty-six white and seventeen colored voters registered on yesterday—making a total up to date of 3,478, as follows; whit' 1,720; colored, 1,758. Dead. The Macon Journal and Nessscn </er, of yesterday, regrets to learn the death, on Thursday last, of Hon. W. M. Butts, a member of the House of Representatives, from Marion county. He was out hunting and died very suddenly, it is supposed from apo* plcxy. The Pont Office. We are requested to state that the City Post Office will not be opened on Thursday next —Thanksgiving Day— except from 8 to 10 o’clock in the fore noon. The mails will close as usual, however. ■ —e. , Hair null Ornaments for the Hair. Our friend and neighbor, C. Bal zeav, as will be seen by reference to his advertisement in this day’s paper, just received from Paris large addi tions to his former stock of human hair, and ornaments for the hair, which he offers at very low rates. Mr. Balzeau is an adept at his busi ness, and will give satisfaction to his patrons. +♦> City Court. This Court met at 10 o’clock yester day, Judge Sneak presiding. Eighteen eases were disposed of on the Common Law Docket. The case of the State vs. Samuel Levy—-mal-practice in office—was brought up, when the Solicitor Gen eral ordered that a noZ pros, be en tered. The Grand Jury found ten true bills yesterday. To-day the criminal docket will be taken up. Tn addition to the other business of this court, yesterday, there were ten foreigners naturalized. —■ «►-» —— 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! The New York Tribune says that an ex-Confederate General desires a command in the Cuban army of inva sion, and, should he obtain the posi tion sought for, promises to furnish 10,000 men, who served with him in the Southern army during the late re bellion. Iteinorcst's Young America. The number for December—being the second of Vol. Ill—is received ; and, unless we are greatly mistaken, is one of the best numbers yet issued. ‘‘Young America” is one of the best, if not the best young people’s maga zine published in the country ; and we know of no more appropriate present from Father, Mother, Uncle or Aunt, to a youngster of either sex, than a copy of the work for one year. Every yearly subscriber, at $1.50, will be presented with a good microscope with br:iss mountings, and glass cylin der for confining living objects; or a good pearl-handle two blade pocket knife, or a double-toned Ilarmoni can, or a box of good Paints, with brushes, or a Compass, or a package of Magic Photographs, or a Book. Address “Demorests Young America,” No. 473 Broadway, New York- Fine Potatoes*, We are indebted to the courtesy of Judge Samuel Levy, Ordinary, for a few specimens of very fine Sweet Po 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 several hundred bushels of these Pota toes, and a quantity of excellent Tur nips, for sale, “ for the benefit of the county.” Beaotitul Fancy Goods. Tn great variety, at 190 Broad street 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. Too Many Widows. Brigham Young suggests Mormon Elders for Engineers on the Pacific Railway. It would be inhuman, for if there should be a collision, how many widows there would be. Lucky Beales. Mrs. Beales, nee Eugenia Kelly, daughter of the New York and Cali fornia millionaire, who was recently married, received two hundred thou sand dollars’ worth of wedding pres ents. A Title Wanted. An advertisement in the London Times seriously announces a new song, with the modest request, “Oh, give me back but yesterday!” A coin-, panion to the above, “Oh, could you spare to-morrow ?” is in preparation to be afterwards followed by the se quel lyric of “You havn’t got such a thing as next week about you, have you ?” Nave Your Money. The poorest laboring man that can save 13| cents per day, put at com pound interest will save in one year SSO, in ten years $650, in twenty years $1,860, in thirty years $3,950, in forty $7,700, in fifty years $14,600. Who could not do better than this if he would try ? Constant labor would en able every- laboring man or mechanic to make a fortune by saving a fraction of his daily earnings. Wives, be Warned! A man tried to kill himself with laudanum, in Buffalo, N. T., a few days since, because his wife asked him for money. To Business Men. The Weekly National Republi can has an extensive circulation over the adjacent conn tics—thus afford ing an excellent opportunity to Adver tisers to extend their business notices. —A young housekeeper in town was applied to for a situation by a servant girl, and among other ques tions asked her, was, why she left her last mistress. “Why, you see, ma’am, I wastoo good looking, and when I opened the door the gentlemen always took me for the missus.” The lady concluded not to accept her ser vices.

What is the best, adhesive label a traveller can put on his baggage? To stick to it himself. An exchange says the raid on Cuba is nothing to the Thanksgiving raid about to be made on Turkey. Reverdy Johnson is now called the “great ehampion American diner-out.’’ An experienced old gentleman says that all that is necessary for the enjoy ment of love or sausage is confidence. A Boston mechanic has just got out an umbrella that is unmistakable; in other words, is confined in an iron frame and can’t be taken at all. Young ladies should be careful and not get chaps on their lips. They have been known to lead to an affection of the heart. A budding youth says that cars, omnibuses and steamboats enjoy a perpetual spring, for they leave every day, and sometimes oftener. If brooks are, as poets call them, the most joyous things in nature, what are they always murmuring about ? It is said that the reason ladies are like arrows is because they are in a quiver when a beau comes. * “ I’ll bring you down to the hard pan of truth, sir 1” said a lawyer to the “ opposing counsel.” “ Very well,” was the reply; “ that’s the pan, I suppose, that you just flashed in!” An undertaker, who was briskly furnishing up a coflin, being asked who it was for, replied, “ I can’t tell which, but two women have started out on a talking match next door, and it’ll be sure to end in the death of one of ’em !” A company is being formed in Lon don and Paris to irrigate the great desert of Sahara and restore it to fertility by means of artesian wells. That is a beneficent project, but it will be an awful bore. A Maine editor says a pumpkin in that State grew so large that eight men could stand around it, which statement is only equalled by that old Hoosier who saw a flock of pigeons fly so low that he could shake a stick at them. A little girl of two summers had learned to pass her plate at the table. One dark night she awoke, reached out her little hand, searching for her mother, but in vain. She raised her voico: “Please, mother, pass your face.” An Arab woman was asked : What do you think of n young man of twen ty years ? “He is,” she said, “a bouquet of jasmin.” “And of a man of thirty ?” “He is a ripe and wcll-flaVored fruit.” “And one of forty- ?” “He is a father of boys and girls.” “And one of fifty ?” “He may pass into the category of preachers.” “And one of sixty “He is good for naught but to cough and groan.” GERMAN PROVFRBS. To change and to better are two different things. Everybody knows good counsel ex cept him that hath need of it. Poverty is the sixth sense. Better free in a foreign land than a serf at home. Better go supperless to bed than run in debt. There is no good in preaching to the hungry. Charity gives itself rich, but covet ousness hoards itself poor. It is not enough to arm, you must hit. The end of wrath is the beginning of repentance. The sun-dial only counts the bright hours. Piety, prudence, wit and civility are the elements of true nobility. God’s mill goes slowly, but it grinds well. High houses are mostly empty in the upper story. A hundred years of wrong do not make an hour of right. More are drowned in the bowl than in the sea. The fewer the words the better the prayer. One has only to die to be praised. With patience and time the mul berry leaf becomes a silk gown. Take the world as it is, not as it ought to be. Revenge converts a little right into a great wrong. Speak little, speak truth; spend lit tle, pay- cash. Handsome is that handsome does. Handsome apples are sometimes sour. It is easier to blame than do better. Our neighbor’s children are always the worst. Forgive thyself nothing and others much. Truth may be suppressed but not strangled. Wliat conies from the heart goes to the heart. Little ami often make a heap in time. When God means to punish a na tion, He deprives the rulers of wis dom. He who blackens others does not whiten himself. Take care of your plough and your plough will take care of you. He who saves in littles things can be liberal in great ones. He who avoids small sins does not fall into large ones. He that pelts every barking dog must pick up a great many stones. Would you be strong —conquer yourself. Where the hedge is lowest the devil leaps over. Killing of HRives Pollard. Richmond, Nov. I.—II.

[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.

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 BRITISH PERIODICALS THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW 'Conservative), THE EDINBURGH REVIEW (Whig), THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Radical), THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW (Free Church), And BLACKWOOD’S EDINBURGH MAGA ZINE (Tory).
