If warehousemen will have their stock counted early in the forenoon they will greatly facilitate us. Faii.ure. —The well known publish ing house of W. B. Smith <fc Cos., Raleigh, have failed. Their liabilities are heavy. They were the publishers of the Southern Field and Fireside, and of other literary papers and periodi cals.

A submarine mountain, 5,000 feet high, was dis covered while making the soundings. The average depth of water is 5,100 feet. Militia Called out in Tennessee.— Brownlow has issued a proclamation calling into active service the volunteer force of that State known as the State Guard, lately authorized by the Legisla ture. Hrs excuse for this course is the alleged acts of outrage committed on Union men. Ihe Wills Valley Railroad.—A company of New York capitalists pro pose to take the above Road, pay its liabilities, and complete it. They ex pect to connect it with a Mobile and New Orleans Road in Alabama, and thus secure a short route from New York to New Orleans. Lecture.— Rev. j. 0 . A _ c , ark) - n response to an invitation from a number of our citizens, will deliver a lecture on Tuesday night. Subject: “The Altar, theTabermmle, the Temple, and their Worah.p’’ From the well known abili,,. of the speaker, we feel justified in prom wing those who attend an edifying and instructive lecture. A freedman was sent to the Peniten ttary lor twenty years, in Montgomery last Tuesday, for wife murder. ’ *. Personal—TheJS’cw Yypk qorpT pendent of the Charleston Courier says that "Laura WaWroo, one of tho ‘Queen SistFra/ fh>tn CharthHon, Is playing at the Brooklyn Theatre, under the name Os Lkura Queen." Athens Agency. Our Apqut *l, Athens, Georgia, ie Mr. M. 11. Mande ville, at the jewelry store of Mandeville Bros., an 'energetio and attentive gen tleman, whose interest in our journal wifi add greatly to its patronage iu that section of our Bute. f f i «-' - r 1 Wreck of Brazilian Emigrants.— The brig Derhy, from Galveston to with 150 emigrants on board, was wrecked off the Cuban coast a short time ago, and a number of Brazilian gentlemenln New York have taken stefts to send a steamer to Havana to carry forward the emigrants. Correction. —Mr. Jnmes Madison Monroe Beard, (whose letter announc ing himselt as a canidate for Mayor appeared in our yesterday’s issue) called upoa us to correct a word which he says was spelt incorrectly. It should have been “patriotick,” not ‘ patriotic.’’ We are sorry the mistake occurred, and take the earliest opportunity to correct it, at his request. Riverside Magazine. This new j magazine, for the young people, is j rapidly coming into popular favor. Some advance sheets of the March num ber have been sent us, containing a capital story by Rev. F. R. Golding— author ot the “ Young Marooners”— entitled “ Frank Gordon, or when I was a Little Boy.” We extract the lively sketch of “ Grand Father in the Marsh," which may be found on the first page. Correction. —We stated a day or two ago that John Jones, charged with assault with intent to kill Policeman Callaghan had been-held in bail in the sum of $1 .000. The amount should have been §2,ooo—a sum which was approved by the prosecuting attorney, and the securities are good and ample. We deem this correction due to all parties concerned; and regret that the error should have occurred. New Orleans Crescent. A few days ago we published the editorial staff of this mammoth daily. We are now pleased to acknowledge its rccep tion as an exchange. The issue for Sunday. 24th inst., contains sixteen -pages, about the size of our own, filled with a rare variety of news and literary matter, constituting one ot the most en tertaining and-readable papers we. have ever seen. The family of Col. Nixon resided for many mouths during the war at Berzelia, while he was in the service and in prison, and we know of no more substantial way of manifesting an appreciation of them, and of his de voted sacrifices, than by subscribing for his paper. Medical College—Commencement Day. —The commencement exercises of of the Medical College will take place at the Masonic Hall ai 12 o’clock M. to-day. The commencement address will be delivered by Prof. H. 11. Tucker, and the Valedictory Address, on the part of the students, by Mr. Harrison Fostor. a son of Mayor Foster, of this City ; and a young gentleman fully ade qu te to the task imposed upon him. The public is, of course, invited to at tend. Reconstruction in Virginia. —A Richmond dispatch to a Northern paper says that Virginia is very peace ably disposed, and will be the first of the Southern States to fall into line under the new Congressional plan Os reconstruction. Governor Pierpont was in council with the State Senate last evening, and advised a speedy indorse ment of the plan. His views seemed to meet with general approbation. It is generally believed that the Legisla ture will pass a resolution calling a convention of the people and accept ing negro suffrage upon the terms ol the hill. Rev. Mr. Hahek.shaM. —This able and estimable divine—whose name is historic in our State—has, we regret to learn, determined to emigrate to Brazil. He has a son who has resided in that country for a number of years, and who has induced his parents and brothers to join him. Mr. Habersham has many devoted friends all over the State, and especially in Savannah, which we believe is his native city, and in Madison and Marietta—where he labored zealously as Pastor of the Episcopal churches in those cities—whose prayers and good wishes will atteud him in his uew home. He is now stopping in this city, and we are pleased to know, in excellent health. Tub Circus. —The circus, with its prettv horses, trained animals, perform ers, and good music, arrived yesterday in town, and Mike Lipman spread his canvass on the lot opposite Concert Hall, where he spread himselt yester day evening for the amusement of his patrons, and will continue to do so to day, afternoon and evening. He pre sents quite an attractive programme, and the admirers of the “House Opera” should avail themselves of the present opportunity to witness this company. Crosete, the Clown, will keep you in a roar of laughter j George Bachelder has few equals as a vaulter and leaper; and Tom Watson flies through the air on his favorite charger; while the curious an* tics of the trained dogs will fill yon with surprise and wonder. We regret to learn that Mr. Leßue, one of the beat performers, is suffering from a sprained wrist, and will not up per. Mike will be pleased to see a full house at each representation, and will do his best to please the public who favor him with their attendance. Narrow KfiCAjHaaflar friend, Ai dorman Ed.

In a Good Humor. —The Richmond Dispatch says that the success of the Sherman! bill appears to have appaosed the wrath of the Radicals, for iuimedi atoly after i|a passage in the House, their Representatives struck out a clause in h Tennessee college bill prohibiting Con ederate officers trora holding pro fessorships in the institution, aud they repealed '.i Cotton tax. They are, indeed, repotted to have been jolly ns the great Fee-so- um, with an appetite satiated by two or three roasted Irish men—or Englishmen ; for the story has it both ways. * The License Tax.— This tax is fixed at five per cent, on the excess of all incomes over SI,OOO. In addition to tho SI,OOO exempted, are also to be exempted all national, State, couuty, and municipal taxes paid within the year, all losses actually sustained du ring the year from fires, shipwreck, or tra,de, till bad debts, the amount actu ally paid for the rent of house or prem ises occupied as a residence, and the amount paid for usual or ordinary re pairs. Improvement.— The old stable on the South side of Green street, near the corner of Centre, which has stood for years—we had nearly-said centuries, it is so very long—is now being torn down; and we have heard that a row of neat and substantial brick dwellings is to take its place. Well, the old stable has done its duty, has served its time, even in a military way, for it was at otto time a Confederate institution and then a United States concern ; and though the antiquarian may regret its demolition, as a memento of the past, yet there will be much consolation in the improve ments which will take its place. Richmond AcademT.—As we are about to go back to military rule, and it is uncertain how long it will continue, it is deemed very important by the friends ol Education in our midst, that an earnest effort he' made to secure the release of Richmond Academy from oc cupancy as barracks. The government buildings in the* vicinity of the city are ample for all the force likely to be re quired here, and there appears to be no good reason why this fine property in the heart of the city should be thus diverted from the purpose for which it was designed. Surely the government, which is making such liberal provision for the support and elevation of the colored people, will not iusist upou clos injy to the whites the moat eligible build ing in the city for educational pur poses. We caunot doubt that it the proper steps were taken by the Trustees and Municipal authorities, the release of these premises from the military could be secured. Cotton Statement. From tho Weekly Cotton Circular of William Brico ds Cos., New York, Friday evening Feb. 22. Our market for the past week has been dull and declining, aud prices have fallen away not only in syrup**! ~ v with Liverpool, but to a considerably ,rea(or degree. The movement, however has been vory light, and the demand almost exclusively con fined to export; yet foreign buyers have entered the market with great caution, not withstanding the large margin existing between this market and that of Liverpool. Considerable business has been done in Liv erpool in Colton to arrive, ou a basis of 13£al3£d., arid these sales have been cov ered iu this and other American markets. With the demand of this character oven running Low Middlings have been the most salable grade, while Uplands have sold bet ter proportionately than Gulfs, as staple has been but little heeded. Some little business has been done with our own mills, but a great proportion of our manu facturing companies have at least ten weeks’ supply on hand. Speculations have been dormant ; in fact there has been no room for any speculation except for a decline. We have uo change to note in Zipporahs, Nankeens, or Peabodys, which have shared the general dullness ; 28c was paid for some Nankeen, but iu tbe other varieties men tioned we hear of no transactions. Sea Islands continue as dull as usual, and quo tations are entirely nominal. Fine Cottons have not shared tbe decline in other vari eties, and maintain their values on account of scarcity. Cotton goods have been in greater request the latter half of the week, and prices have been fully maintained. Uenbrit. Bum arks.—The almost daily declino which has occurred this week has been its most noticeable feature, aud the cause, almost universally conceded, is the dullne&s in Manchester. At what point there will boa revulsion of feeling and free buying by manufacturers is now tbe poiut to be considered. It is generally admitted that although the stocks ot yarns and cloths in Manchester are very heavy, the stock of raw material in the hands of consumers is very light. Manufacturers must surely come into the market before long, but as surely with little freedom till tbe price of the raw material is such as allow goods to be made without a serious loss to producers. At exactly what point this will be remains a quebtiou. Os course our receipts will have much to do with this price, as tho more Cotton there comes in the larger the supply spinners will see before them and act accordingly. The end of next month will settle the point whether the crop will be one and three quarters or two millions, and then we will commence to speculate on the sis© of the crop of 1867-1868. The receipts oontinue full, as will be noted from our tables, and, counting the receipts at tho ports and wha is to be seen in the intorior depots, about 1,400,000 bales have come te light since {September Ist, 1806. Estimates of a million and a halt are now All abandoned, and 1,750,000 bales msy now be considered a minimum figure among Cotton men here ; estimates in the South are likewise being raised, and “two million bales men” are more numerous than hitherto. Wo s ill maintain our estimate of 1,800,000. The proportion of the crop usually received in January is about 14 per cent.; the receipts this year for the four weeks rightly belonging to January, were, in round numbers, 270,000, which in dicates a crop of about 1,800,000 bales. Receipts of the week, 58,824 bales; total receipts since September at tho ports, 1,233,340 bales; exports, 604,052 balos; stocks, 653,552 bales. —Sidney Smith being ill, his physi cian advises him to “take a walk upon an empty stomach.” “Upou whose ?” said he. Feniass Wanted.—W* obeerve Jm lh« Northern pipevi°*» cell for I,soo men who are’ willing to take up arm* so? the cause gs Ireland, and »r« able to bear their own expenses to the extent of SIOO. We do not suppose the fools are all dead yet, but wq jhink it will be very hard to find that number among the Fenians, ( who are ready to follow the mad caps who are uow managing the war movement ol that order. Rklapbing into Barbarism.—We have thought it possible that the sus taining policy of the government might wsuttin some benefit to the colored people ;■ but we are pained to observe that jn Nashville, where they perhaps enjoy more freedom than anywhere South, they are fast relepsfng into bar barism. In evidence of this, it is stated that they fairly jfclfed with delight over tho renomination of Brdwnlow for Gov ernor 1 •’ f A > The store of Wreford & Son, Mont gomery, was fired ou Monday evening, but the flames were arrested, and so was Mr. Wreford and his clerks. The store was heavily iusured and contained goods far less in value than the amount of insurance. Splinters of fat pine was found piled under the counters fcnd keroseue oil had been poured over the building profusely. GEORGIA ITEMS. There are 91 cases of small pox in Columbus. The ladies of Athens gave an exhibi tion of tableaux on Friday night for the Davis fiind. The City Council of Columbus have closed the liquor aud barber shops on Sunday. Mr. James Bond, known as one of the wealthiest planters in that section, died near Columbus on Monday. A man named Sanders was shot white at supper near Bainbridge ; the contents of two guns passing through his head. Henry Hull, Jr. Esq., left Athens a lew days ago for. his new home in Ne v Orleans, where he has been elected cashier of the Louisiana National Bank. The Justices of the Inferior Court < t Wilkes county have received a bill of lading for 120 sacks of corn shipped from Louisville by the good people of Kentucky, for the relief of the poor -of that county. The InteUit/encer says C. C. Howell. E>q., a well known and highly resp icted citizen of Fulton county, was killed on Wednesday, in Atlanta, by C. C. Green, Esq., also a well-known citizen of the county. The origin of the difficulty is nut sated. The Athens Watchman says the ora tors before the Literary Societies of the University, at their late anniversary, were Messrs. Spencer, for the Demos theniun, and Whiteman, for the Phi Kappa, and that they had all the wit beauty, wisdom and fashion of the town to hear them. Each did admirably, and retired from the stage amid a thunder ous roar of applause—both figuratively and literally crowned with laurels. fin Cdcgvapi). TO THE ASSOCIATED I J RICSS FROM WASHINGTON.

During debate to-day, Mr. Sumner ac cused Secretary McCulloch of falsehood, in the statement of his inability to procdire revenue officers South able to take the oath. Mr. Sherman passionately retorted that Mr. Sumner’s language was neither parliam«nt ary or gentlemanly, but false. Mr. Chan dler echoed Mr. Sumner in epithets char acterized by Mr. Fessenden as foal mouthed abuse. The scene grew out of an amend ment striking out the pay of Southern offi cers. FROM KENTUCKY.
