Stock Feed, Ton tHt Lapies. —Through the col umns of that ably conducted and de servedly popular journal, the Louisville Courier, a lady seeks to have a friendly talk with the ladies of our land upon questions of vital importance, both to our moral and national character. Be ginning with the assertiou that for many months she does not remember to have taken Hito her hands a paper which did not contain one or more recitals of woe and degradation revolting to all -that is good and pure in the heart, she says the question naturally arises, what can be the cause -of all this wickedness ? The response has come to her that the whole female sex are, in a measure, respousi. ble, as those who carry an inPuence in, and even far beyond, the circle of their immediate acquaintance. She says she does not ask (or her sex a voice in the halls of State, or a ballot at the polls ; but she does ask that many of the precious moments, now multiply ing themselves into hours, which are spent in perverting and destroying the beautiful adornments which God has jPya'i them, should be spent by mothers plauting in the hearts of their sons the true principles and virtues which will render them discerning patriots at the polls, and moral, upright citizens at all times. She admonishes ladies to leave to the African the frizzled hair as their Maker intended, and brush their own long silken tresses in the modest style adorning the true'woman ; then to dis' charge, to she best of their ability, the duty of training the immortal spirits in trusted to their care. It was not be cause Cornelia of old was a leader of fashion that the Romans erected to her memory a monument more enviable than the beautiful Helen achieved, but be cause she had trained two jewels who were ornaments to the eoarttry. She thinks that a too great desire to imitate reigns in the hearts of her sex, and she estimates that perhaps there is one out of every twenty of-the elegantly dressed ladies on our streets .who is pe cuniarily able thug to add to the coffers of our merchants of every class ; then there are eight twentieths who, regard less of the hard-earned wages of a bus" band or a father, are trying-to imitate the heiress of thousands; there may be four twentieths who are thus wasting their own honorably-earned money. - ; but then what are the base means to which the other seven twentieths of her sex re sort, in order that they may equal, if not excel, the heiress in richness ol apparel and in indolence ? She declares that reform in the ex travagance of both sexes is important, is necessary to our life as a virtuous people, and it cannot efliciently begin with one alone, for she would only be marked as odd and eccentric. It must be made by a number of ladies of wealth and position, who can then give the noble reason which actuates them, and by the silent workings of .their power, in a few short years they will achieve -more than the eloquence of Clay or Webster ever gained. Think, then, how rapidly homes could be made to rise (or our maimed defenders, our orphans and widows, schools for the ignorant, and hospitals for the suffering. This “amendment” will rapidly abol ish the mercenary trade in matrimony, because then there will be no necessity for ladies and gentlemen each to con sult the assessor's list for the value of the one they love. And, in conclusion, this lady appeals to her sisters, to awake to a lull sense of their duty and its importance. She beseeches them to let the work of re form begin at once; at once let the light be kindled, and it will soon extend to the shores washed by the peaceful Pacific, the stormy Alantic, and to the sanded strand of the “sunny South.” England’s domains will catch the spirit of light and reflect it from her icy peaks to the hamlets and cities of the “ Old World,” whose people will universally don the imperishable gems of virtue, love, and charity. Only let these be come “the fashion,” and they will not need to be changed every three months ; for the longer they are worn the more beautiful and beautifying they become. What peace of mind will then smooth the wrinkles from the brows of our fathers and mothers, as well as brighten the eye and tinge the cheeks of our brothers and sisters. It is that lady’s earnest prayer that the Spirit of God may carry these truths to every heart, and we say, Amen.

REPORTED SPECIALLY POR THE DAILY PRESS. Office Daily treas, { Augusta, Ga., September 13, I860.) •REMARKS. At the time of Report of 6th Inst., trade was exceedingly dull, but during the pWt trade, as a general thing, has become more active, though there are still a few leading articles for which there is but little demand. There is every indication to ahow that the Fall trade bos now commenced, and that our City will soon resound with the hum of business. Our merchants, in every branch of busi ness, are making extensive preparations for the trade of the season; arrivals of fresh Goods are daily occurrences, and store-houses seem almost to groan beneath the weight of supplies within them. We respectfully call your attention to the follow ing lYices Current of the City of Augusta. You may rest assured, that the greatest care has been taken in compiling them, und that they may be relied upon as correct quotations. It should be borne in mind that our quo tations represent wholesale prices. Small bills , to Planters and others, are filled at a shade higher rates . FINANCIAL. The demand for Gold and Silver since our last has been almost entirely nominal, owing to the scarcity of money. Our report closed on Gold buying 143, selling 146; Silver buying 135, and selling 140. During the week we know of no remaining steady at these figures. And at the hour when w’e close our Review, being governed by the latest New York dispatches, we show a decline in Gold in this city on last week’s Report of lc., viz.: Gold, buying 143 Gold, selling 145 Silver, buying 135 Silver, selling 140 Exchange on New York stands at par. Georgia Rail Road Bonds par and >4 interest. But little doing either in Stocks, Bonds, or Uncurrent Notes during the week, and we have therefore no important change to make in our quotations. The table on the next page lias been carefully corrected, and we call your attention to it. PROVISIONS. BACON.—The market is well stocked, with but a linn l ■:•<! demand. In fact Bacon brings higher prices in other markets, in proportion , than it docs bore, ami although prices seem disposed to be a little easier, still we do not feel authorized to alter our quotations. The supply, although still heavy, i becoming diminished, and we do not re gard this tendency to a eecline as being the legiti mate action of trade, but rather to some outside transaction, such as sales of large quantities of damaged Bacon at auction. We have no real changes to make in our Price List this week, as the market already betokens firmness at prices given. There have been no sales of importance, none but consumers seeming disposed to buy. There is a great deal of unsmoked Bacon on the market, known by the name of Cumberland, which sells a little lower than smoked, buyers generally smoke this Bacon themselves; however, the regular staple kinds of Bacon stand at the figures quoted, viz.: Clear Sides 24@25c.; Clear Ribbed Sides 23@23J^c-; Regular Sides 22 tit 23c.; Shoulders 19($ 2Uc.; Hams, plain, 25@27c.; Sugar Cured Hams, can vassed, 27@28c.; Breakfast 22®23c.

Our last Report closed on a quiet market, 27@30 covering the ground. During the past week the market, as a general thing, has evinced more signs of life than has been seen in the Cotton mart for many months. A much better feeling has perva ded the market, and in all instances holders have been firm. The demand has been good, although there has not been much Cotton shoved forward for sale. Very little of the Cotton sold this week is of this year's growth. The total receipts of Cotton in this City, up to date, from Ist instant, sum up 700 bales'; the sales for the same time amount to 1047 bales.

The general disposition seems to buy as little oi the old crop as possible, and to merely purchase now what is absolutely nec essary till the new crop fairly begins to arrive. The demand has been a general one, but most active for even running lists, which command higher figures than our quotations. Good •tapled Cottons are in like request, and to th< m the same remark concerning prices are appli cable. F'stimates of the crop continue to be made; 2.000 000 bales continues a g eneral conservative estimate, and some Cotton lias been sold “to arrive,” based on this supposed yield, 30c. currency for delivery on December 1 and 15, and 31@32 for November delivery of Middling Georgia Cotton of New York classification. The probabilities of the crop overrunning or underrunning these figures seem so evenly balanced that operations of this kind are less numerous than would be the case if there were any data whereby a reliable estimate could be made. • The present is oar first Circular for the year 1?66-67, and we avail ourselves of the oppor tunity to make a few general remarks to our many friends on subjects of mutual interest connected with the crop now preparing for market. Concerning the amount of this crop, we claim no one at present can make any re liable figures; but in this and our previous Circulars we have given all the rumors and es timates that reach us, varying from one to three millions of bales. Only three times, in the history of Cottoo, has the American crop reached 4.000 000 bales, and when estimates of a half crop are given, somewhat less than 2,000,000 bales is mean’. While it is true that 4 000.000 bales were but three times raised, the increase of the crop from 1819 to 1860 shows an average of a little more than four percent yearly, and the consumption a simi lar rate of increase. During the past year the average weekly consumption in the United States has been about 12,000 bales, while of American Cotton abroad about 25 000 bales; to supply which demand 1-021.000 bales are want ed, not allowing for any increase of consump tion, us these figures are outside ones. Against this probable demand we have the following supply: Stock at present in the United States. 275,000 bale*; in England.not counting what is at sea. 325 000 bales of American, which makes 600000 bales at present to be counted, while the amount on the continent of Europe would certainly swell the total to 650 000 bales, count ing what is now ailoat. This leaves 1.274.000 bales to be ra’sed for the present crop. We give these figures to show that there is no im mediate fear of a Cotton famine nor panic prices. Mix-packed Cottons, or bales containing two grades, were almost unknown before the war, b it are now, in aM the gr< a’ Cotton markets, as significant as Ordinary or .Middling. We would advise all our planter friends to exercise great care, and assort their Cotton before bal ng with the greatest nicety; the better price which such Cotton will bring will abundantly pay for the extra trouble If any such bales be ship ped. it is better to advise the factor ot such bales than to run the risk of their rejection, and enable him to dispose of the property in telligently. The pursuance of this course will always be profitable to the ship] ct* Amusements. " DA N CING SC HO 0L AT MASONIC IIALL. PROF. F. T.
