Th Savannah Republican gives a brief sy i. ;-- Oi Mr Stephens’ speech at Savannah, " that paper says, was listened to by a deii-< s y packed audience—the largest assembly ■'•r seen m Savannah. Mr. Stephens, al though extremely feeble. spoke for two hours and thri« quarters gathering strength from \ excitvm ut. h was an argument in favor of J the Douglas doctrine of popular sovereignty. Mr. Stephens announced in the conclusion of his speech, that he did not regard the elect on t Lincoln as a just cause of disunion, and should oppose such a movement with all the power at his command, let it come from whom might. He should wait for an act of aggres- i - an. and would then summon his countrymen 4; d exhort them to resistance. COMPTROLLER’S REPORT. We are indebted to Col. Thweatt, our indefat igable Comptroller General, fora portion of his forthcoming report to the Legislature. This shows the sum total of receipts into the Treas ury for the fiscal year to have been $1,165,162 78 Add cash balance in the Treasury' from last year 288,768 00 Total Fund $1,453,930 78 Ihe expenditures for the same period were $1,179,110 24, leaving a balance in the Treas ury of $274,820.54. Among these expendi tures are $404,292 10 on account of the public debt, $204,732 10 being for interest. The re ceipts show .$450,000 from the net earnings of the State Railroad, being $30,000 more than it paid into the Treasury last year. The expen ditures embrace $250,000 paid to the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad 5117,000 redemption of the public debt not due and $42,801 7$ for the purchase of arms for the State. The public debt of the State now consists of $2,073,750 6 per cent, bonds, $72,000 5 per cent, and $525,000 7 per cents, making in all $2,670,750. In ad dition to this liability the State is also bound to subscribe, in the proportion of $5 to $6 raised by private subscription, for as much as $500,- 000 more to the Atlantic and Gulf Rail Road. As an offset to this indebtedness the Comptrol ler shows in good assets, in stocks and bonds a value of $807,025 besides the State Road prop erty not valued, but which of course would show a large balance to the State over and above all her indebtedness at any conceivable valua tion. The table of taxable values in Georgia foots up $672,322,777 against $609,589,975 last year; showing an increase of over sixty two millions. The increased number of slaves over last year is 6,669 and the average valuation is $672,61 against $612,63. The increase in the valuation of lands $12,217,075. and the average valuation is $4,85 against $4,42 last year. Town property increased in value $3,010,101 ; mer chandize $2,045,506, and money and solvent debts $ 11,211,557. We learn from the report that there are twenty-five banks now’ doing bus iness in Georgia, with a capital stock paid in amounting to $9,028,078, on which taxes are paid to the amount of $33,083 29. Five banks have withdrawn from business with credit.— Seven have been chartered which have never gone into operation, and sixteen have exploded to the damage of holders of their obligations. The report abounds in numerous interesting and important facts, throwing light upon the operations of our revenue system and the finan cial resources of the State, to which we have no space to allude. Like all which have ema nated from Col. Thweatt, it displays great in dustry, ability and method, and a single fact mentioned in one paragraph is w’orth more to the reputation of this excellent and faithful of ficer, than a column of encomium. Says he, “I am happy to inform your Excellency, however, that during my administration of this office, the State has not lost a dollar on account of any default of Tax Collectors.” “MORAL EFFECT IN NEW YORK.” The Herald of the 26th leads off in an article well calculated to relieve all anxiety about the result of the election in New York if any is felt. The Herald says, in brief, that New York will give a larger majority for Lincoln than any other State in the Union ! The fusion committees who are now in Atlanta, patch ing up a coalition in Georgia for “moral effect” in New York, may put that declaration in their pipes and smoke it. Here it is : “Common justice to all concerned demands that this idea that “something may turn up” to redeem New York should be abandoned. New A ork will vote for Lincoln, and by a larger ma jority, we dare say, than any other State. Lin coln will be elected. There is no use in mincing the matter any longer. We are called upon to look this thing full in the face. The best that our I nion forces can now do is to save all the odds and ends ol the election within their reach, such as Congressmen, Assemblymen and coun ty officers. Lincoln will be elected, and all par ties concerned may as well just now shape their course to that event as to wait till the day after the election.” I’he same article, of which the foregoing is the concluding paragraph, maintains the opin ion we have ever held from the beginning, that the only chance for a defeat of the Black Repub licans lay in a harmonious nomination by the democracy, and gave up the ghost with the col lapse at Charleston and Baltimore. Says that paper: “When the representatives of the democracy assembled in their national council at Charles ton, the Presidential succession was clearly within their reach. A substantial and signifi cant popular conservative reaction had 'com menced in the North, in anticipation of the union of all the democratic sections, factions and cliques upon a common Presidential ticket.— Encouraged by this belief, the conservative ele ments nobly rallied against the republicans in Connecticut, a;.d ven c..nfod the State. Rhode Island they did carry, against a picked representative of the “irrepressible conflict,” by a handsome majority. Had these Northern popular manifestations in behalf of union and harmony at Charleston been properly apprecia ted by that Convention, there would have been no difficulty in opening the way for a decisive national triumph over the republicans in No vember. To this end the nomination of some such na tional democratic Union ticket as Dickinson and Stephens, of Georgia, or Breckinridge and Lane, or Horatio Seymour and Jefferson Davis without the entangling abstractions of any plat form whatever, would have sufficed to lead the democracy to victory. The so-called constitu tional Union party Convention at Baltimore—a mere waif upon the waves—might still have nominated a separate ticket for the local pur poses of the Southern opposition partv, but prac tically it would have amounted to nothing. The South would have been a unit uponthe Charleston ticket, and the old line whigs and American conservatives of Rhode Island, Con necticut, New Y ork, New Jersey, Pennsylva nia and Indiana, between that ticket and the republican ticket, would have been at no loss as to their line of action. But the conflicting candidates and cliques at 1 < harleston brought that convention to a revo lutionary explosion, and from that moment the great Northern popular tide which had been setting in towards the democracy began to turn against them. MELA N C HOLY' ACCIDEN T. Miss Barnitz, a very interesting young lady from Marietta, was thrown from a buggy in which she was returning from the Fair Ground yesterday m company with a young gentleman and she was so seriously injured, that her life is dcsp&ircu of. The accident was occasioned bv the horse becoming frightened and running a way with the buggy.—[Atlanta Intelligencer. TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 30, 1860. Panic in the N. Y. Stock Market.—Tn the early part of last week there was a small panic in the New York stock market, which caused a decline of six to ten per cent, in the specula tive railway stocks. A reaction took place du ring the latter part of the week, in which the decline was recovered. The panic is attributed to apprehension of trouble in event of Lincoln’s election. New Cards.—AY r e would direct special at tention to the cards of Messrs. E. J. Johnston & Co., in our columns to-day, and bespeak for them a call. In their line, their stock is one of the largest, most elegant and attractive in the Southern country. MR. YANCEY’S CINCINNATI SPEECH. We find in the Cincinnati papers full reports of Mr. Yancey’s recent speech in that city.— This marked difference is perceptible between the speeches of Mr. Douglas and-Mr. Yancey in the Northern States. While Mr. Douglas has devoted a good portion of each of his speeches to denunciations of Mr. Breckinridge and his supporters. Mr. Y'ancey has made his entire war upon the Black Republicans, without saying anything that could give offence to the Bell or Douglas men of the North, being unwilling to utter a word that might prevent a cordial co-op eration of the three against Lincoln. YVe give the conclusion of Mr. Y'ancey’s speech as we find it reported in the Black Republican organ, the Cincinnati Gazette: THE THREATS OF THE SOUTH —REMEMBER THE REV OLUTION. The South has been threatened with your eighteen millions already. One of your brag gart sons uttered on the floor of Congress that eighteen millions of the North would conquer us. It may he so. It may not be so. Do you remember a people who, something like eighty odd years ago, only three millions in number, scattered over avast extent of territory, unarm ed, unofficered, unarmied, none of the munitions of war, with nothing more than a civil Government—do you remember that this people threw themselves in conflict for a great principle (although it was represented by dol lars and cents), with the strongest power the world has ever known—with twenty millions of an armed people whose ships covered every sea, whose victories were known in every land? And yet out of that conflict those three millions of freemen came victorious. God grant that there never shall be a battle between the North and the South I (Cheers.) A PRAYER FOR CONCORD. May a wise and good Providence, in Elis mer cy see to it that we, born to brotherhood, shall never grapple with each other as enemies (Cheers.) May that spirit of justice and of truth which prevailed among our common ancestry yet be ouis in the loyal bosoms the great hearts of this people; and may they respect us as our fathers respected each other. A PLEA FOR CONCORD. They came out of the Revolution, gentlemen, bound together with affection such as few peo ple ever knew’, from the remembrance of an hour of common trial, of “the hour that tried men’s souls,” the remembrance of suffering and of wrong, and of defeat, and of depressed hopes, and of the hovering of dark, inky despair over the whole of our country, and of the sun beam ing on their heads a free people. And when they met in common council, respected each other’s rights, only knowing that there was a North and a South in order that the North might do justice to the South, and that the South might reciprocate in a fraternal feeling of our ancestors. Why cannot it prevail now? Are we better than they ? Are we wiser than they ? Have we bigger objects to attain now than they had? Can you obtain anything, gen tlemen, by destroying, even if you are able, my section, save the memory of a great wrong that would haunt you through eternity? (Ap plause.) I admit that you have the power.— Eighteen men against eight would, be likely un der the ordinary circumstances of life to prevail. DO NOT RUIN US AND YOURSELVES. I will not undertake to throw back to you a taunt of what eight men may do who are an in telligent and free and brave people. Were Ito do so, 1 should be unworthy of the occasion, unworthy as were the threat that I now throw down at my feet. But if you have power, ex ercise it like men. If you have intelligence, show it in the manner in which you administer this government. If you have justice, let jus- 1 tice prevail though the heavens fall. (Cheers.) I But do not, my friendsol' the North—l say it 1 before you in no spirit, gentlemen, of servile submission to your power or servile acknowl edgement of that power, for as God rules 1 have no fear of it, however much 1 respect it—but do not merely because you feel that you have got power, do not wreathe your arms round the temple of our liberties, and like a blinded Sam son bring down that great temple on your heads as well as ours.

New York Politicians at Figures.—The probable result of the presidential election in the State of New York is, of course, a subject of profound interest. The New York politi cians, we see, are busy figuring out what they profess to believe will be the result. TheJiw nal oj Commerce contains two estimates, one from a democrat and the other from a republi can, both of whom are said to be unusually well informed concerning the political condition of theJState. The democrat claims a majority of 15,700 for the union or fusion ticket, while the republican concedes a majority’ of 500 for the same ticket. The Tribune, however, re views both estimates at length, and after ridi culing them, gives its opinion that Lincoln’s majority in the State cannot be less than 40 - 000, and may be higher. Intelligent readers, oi course, make due allowance for the political not offiy of the Tribnne, but ot two wri tirs tor the Journal of Commerce, and await vember ,Pt * ht * bal,ot box on the 6th of No- . ; From the St. Louis Democrat. Lindell Hotel, St. Louis—the largest in the World. One of the wonders of the world is now this great hotel, which has just been roofed in, and approaches completion. Nothing like it, in size . or completeness, exists on the American conti nent, and as no European, or other hotels, equal ours in these respects, of course it is the largest > in the world. The large “Metropolitan” of New York overtopped the “Astor,” and the “Fifth Avenue” of later date surpassed this in dimensions and modern improvements. These t again were all cast in the shade the past vear . by the magnificent “Continental” of Philadel phia, which, until the “Lindell” was erected, was certainly not excelled in America. The 1 “Continental” is six stoics in height, ex clusive of the basement, presents a front of 170 feeton Chestnut street, 235 on Ninth, and 194 on George street. Bii, extensive as is the ; “Continental,” our own “Lindell” largely ex ceeds it, being seven stories high, exclusive of ! the basement; its height ujpm sidewalk, 112 ! set t \ v T / „ . Washington avenue i 5272 feet; its depth from ; Washington avenue to Green street, 227 feet.— ; The fronts on YVashington avenue and Sixth ■ street are faced with cream-colored magnesian . limestone, elaborately finished; that on Sev- enth street with the finest stock brick, with cut , stone ornamental window trimmings. ’ The two dining rooms, (yvith carving room between,) easily throyvn together, lor dancing or other public festival purposes, are 233 feet in length, by 45 feet in width—evidently the largest in the world. On the same floor, and contiguous, is a kitchen, 60 feet by 46, and 20 feet high. This hotel can accommodate with ease 1,200 persons. Some idea may be formed of its great extent by a few statistics of materials used in its construc tion. The brick laid in its walls number eight millions, sufficient to pave an erca of more than thirty-eight acres. This is in addition to 8,000 perches ofrubble stone in the foundation, 3.5JJ00 cubic feet of cut stone in the fronts, and other stone (in all costing over $100,000.) The plate glass in the windows would cover an acre of ground, and the floors between seven and eight acres. If a boarder desires to take a walk through the wide and lofty corridors before breakfast, he may travel one and a quarter miles without going over the same floor twice. Be sides ihe marble flooring and other flagging, 300,000 feet of lumber has been used in its floor ing, and it will require BG,OvO yards of carpet to cover them. Liiirty-two tons ot sash weights are to be used. Some 16,000 feet of gas pipe are required to light it, yvith many thousands of burners; 120,000 pounds lead’, and 30,000 pounds of iron pipe to supplv it with water, be sides that for heating it. Forty to fifty miles of bell wire will be required. The actual cost of the building, unfurnished, is over $600,000; which, with the ground, now valued at $326,- 400, makes the whole value in round numbers one million dollars. It has just been leased for a term of fifteen years, to the Messrs. Leland, of the “Metropolitan,” New York, on very favor able terms to the lessees. The design is Ital ian, a most ornamental and showy style. The centre compartment of the XV’ash'ingfon avenue front has a a magnificent portico, tyvo stories in height, of Roman-Corinthian style. The large fluted Corinthian columns, of cast iron, which support the main entrance, are 23 feet 8 inches long, nearly nine feet in circumference, and weigh nearly six tons each—probably the largest ever east. These columns stand on stone pedestals, and are capped yvith highly orna mental cast-irons imposts, making them stand 36 teet high. Potatoas AT THE Wesi'.—The Davenport (Iowa) Democrat says: “If any body wants to see potatoes by the cord—good measure—let them step down to the levee. There is not shipping enough at this time on the Upper Mississippi to move them away as fast as they accumulate. Farmers complain a little that the price is too low; but they are the only party to blame; if they want higher prices they must not raise so many.— The market, pi ice is from twelve to fifteen cents per bnshel.” Fast Transatlantic Steamers.—Com. Van derbilt is about to build two last passenger steamers for his transatlantic line. They are to be of wood; length 406 sees, beam 55 feet, and depth only 17 to 18 feet. The decks will be as thick and solid as the bottom of the ship, ami the Beck houses will be constructed like the side of a ship, yvith bull’s eye lights. I JL'.

WRINKLE. How Union-Saving is Viewed at the North. —Perhaps the Belleverettites of the South would like to see what the Northern Black Re publicans think of their efforts in the cause of the 1 nion per se. In a speech delivered at Bangor, Me., on the 28th of August, Anson Burlingame, the same man who declared that the country needs “an anti-slavery God” spoke as follows: I tell you we have many friends, even beyond the black border that separates freedom and slavery. The gallant Etheridge, of Tennessee, with Anderson, of Kentucky, Gilmer, of North Carolina, and the daring, eloquent and chival rous Henry JV’inter Davis, are with us in this contest. They can not, at the present, act open ly, but they are doing a glorious service for us in the Bell and Everett ranks. They are divi ding the South, and strangling the slave-extend ing Democracy on its own chosen battle-ground. 1 tell you that these, whose voices are a bugle call to thousands of followers, are, in their heart of hearts, praying earnestly for our success ; and when we shall have achieved a glorious tri umph, and enthroned freedom in our national hails, they will meet you with open arms and j with us will plantour glorious banner of free dom upon every tower within the black .for tresses of slavery. I am speaking what 1 know. X» ill you not, then, gladden the hearts of these, ! your friends, and unloose their hands, that they i may join the phalanx of freedom that is to win i successive victories, go on from triumph to tri umph, till the banner of universal freedom shall wave from the dome of the capitol and over every hill and valley within the borders of our glorious Republic ? It must be consoling to the Belleverettites ■ to know that their self-sacrifices are apprecia ted at the North. Surely, they are “prophets not without honor, save in their own country.” Beware of a Thief who is Passing as a Beg gar. On XX ednesday last, a man came to mv place in X'ineville, and finding that I was not at home, went in the house without stopping at the front , door—asked my wife for some money, she re- . plied, I have none to give you. She offered him 1 some refreshment, which he partook of. <>n * Thursday night my front door was opened and a pair of large plated extension candlesticks stolen.

There is scarcely an article of vegetable food, says Hall’s Journal of Health, more widely useful, and more •universally loved, than tlie apple. Why every farmer in the nation has not an apple orchard. where the trees will grow at all, is one of the mysteries. Let every fam i Hy lay in from two to ten or more barrels, and , it will be to them the most economical invest ment in the whole range of culinaries. A raw, mellow apple is digested man hour and a half, while boiled cabbage requires five hours. The most healthy dessert which can be placed on a table, is a baked apple. If taken freely at breakfast, with coarse bread and butter, with out meat or llesh of any kind, it has an admi rable effect on the general system, often i>rfioves constipation, correcting acidities, and-rmilingotf febrile conditions more effectually>fian the most approved medicines. If families could be indu ced to substitute, the apple-—sound, ripe and luscious—for the candies, sweet . incuts, with which their children are too often indiscreetly stulfeji, there would be a diminu tion in the SUnyrotal of doctors’ bills in a single . year, sufficient to lay in a stock of this delicious . fruit for a whole season’s use. / '"A GTorgi a Pistol. —Dr. W. M. Butler, sur geon dentist, of our city, has invented a most formidable weapon, for which he is now on a visit to Washington City, to take the necessa ry steps for a patent. This pistol is a breeeh loading one, the action of firing reloading 16 times in succession. The principle upon which it is constructed is a very simple, but ingenious one, andjio doubts are entertained by those who have seen it of its entire success.
