That Flour.
Wo have given (hat A. A. Empire Mills
flour a trial, anti prononce it the very
dot. fully up to the representations of the
makers. It rises well, and when made
into rolls and eat with some of Van
Marcus’ fresh Goshen butter is delicious.
G and try it.
That Pitcher.
Like some editors, brother Martin is \
not addicted to the “weed,"’ but, fastidi
ous in taste, prefers a “draught of cool ]
water,” and has, at. length, been ma le the 1
fortunate recipient of an article he “has
a use for,” which is nothing less than a
pitcher—a stiver pitcher —fine enough ‘do
ornament any table.” We congratulate j
him on his good luck, and shouldn’t won
der if it finally becomes the means of
persuading him to keep “bachelor’s hall.”
Should he do so, we will here say, sub
rosct, that he will find a use perhaps, then, ;
for articles which it is reported he lately
refused—for the accommodation of visit
iug nds, of course.
City Improvements,
We made a call upon Mr. H. L. Wood
ruff, nt the shop of Messrs. Goetchius &
Hodges, yesterday, lie exhibited to us
two handsome designs, one of which is |
for the new Market and the other for a 5
three-story building and engine room for
Eire Company No. 3. It is to be erected |
on the corner lot now occupied by Mr. |
Kenney as a marble yard. The drawings
are well executed, and if the buildings,
when completed, come half up to the
designs, they will add much to the orna
mentation of our city.
Our opposition to the erection of anew
market did not affect our appreciation of
Mr. Woodruff’s designs for the proposed
buildings. When finished, they will cer
tainly add much to the appearance of the
city, and their accomplished architect is
doing much towards this end. May suc
cess attend him.
Th‘t Sera toga House.
All hands were agreeably surprised j
Saturday by the reception of an elegant
iiincii, sent from the Saratoga House, fur
which the proprietors have our sincere j
thanks. The “Bella Union” is no more; !
it has passed into new hands and has as- i
sumed anew name, and will hereafter be j
known as the “Saratoga House.” The
bar will be in charge of Isham, who has
been known in that capacity for twenty I
years in Columbus, and will always be ]
supplied with liquors in abundance, and j
of the best quality. There is also con- !
nccted with the establishment an eating
saloon, which will be under the superin- ;
tendence of Murdock McLeod, who has
catered to the public taste in this city for j
fully ten years past.
The whole establishment has been re- |
painted and refitted, and is well prepared
to accommodate ail in search of the
wherewith to satiate the thirst, or ap
pease the appetite.
Hebrew Synagogue.
We at ended services for a short time
yesterday in the Synagogue, recently
fitted up by our Hebrew citizens. Os
course everything connected with their
inode of worship was entirely novel to us,
and being carried on in the Hebrew lan
guage, we understood very little of what
was said or done. There is a solemnity,
however, connected with their worship,
when ever wo consider that Moses and
Aaron once stood in similar positions, and
made offerings for the sins of tha people.
We were pleasantly received, comfortably :
seated, and a book containing the trans- !
lation of the service placed in our hands,
for all of which we tender our thanks.
By the way we hear that a crowd of 1
rude and vagabond boys were very noisy
during a part of the services yesterday.
1 f such be the fact our police should see
to it, that such does not again occur. No
person can be molested in this republic j
for the worship of God in his or her own
way. _ t
The .Tuveiiile Concert.
Thursday night was the occasion of
the second and last Concert for the sea
son, of Mr. Mason’s Juvenile Class. We
cougratulato the little Misses upon the
presence of so large and respectable an
audience of ladies and gentlemen as were
attracted to Temperance Hall to enjoy
this chaste entertainment. The Class
numbered about ono hundred, and were
all arrayed in snowy white, and their
heads wreathed with flowers. They ap
peared not less bright and happy than on
a previous and similar occasion. The |
performances consisted of songs, duets, j
quartetts, ftc., adapted to the performers,
which were executed in excellent style.
Among other pieces, wc might particu
larize the songs entitled the “Forest i
Nymphs,” the “Star Spangled Banner,”
and the “Gypsey Song.” There were
also two or three instrumental pieces
that deserve particular mention, but we
did not loavu the name of the little per
former, who gives great promise of fu
ture proficiency in musical attainments.
In this connection, for the sake of the
Class, and the patrons of the teacher, at
least, we beg to allude to the presentation
of that magnificent (?) service of plate.
We do not know the author; it is too im
material a matter to prosecute the in
quiry; lurt it was a very improper and
ill-tiuied occasion for offering insult or
personal reflection, whatever may have
been the feeling that prompted it.
American Watclies.
Our readers will recollect that not loug
ago we published an elaborate account ot
the American Watch Company's Factory,
at Waltham, Mass., and predicted for its
products a large and enduring success. ;
This result has been accomplished beyond
the most extravagant hopes of its mana
gers, and their watches are now the
trusty companions of thousands ot that
best class of the community with whom
time is emphatically money, lbey have >
proved to be what we then insisted they .
couldn't help being —the most uniformly
rcli.ble and substantial watch in the 5
world, aud we are informed that even the j
prejudices of foreign watch-repairers,
working in this country, are gradually
giving way to the irrefutable argument
furniobed by the steady and accurate
performances of those time-keepers. In
many instances, to our certain knowledge,
their accuracy is, and has been, almost
unparalleled, rivalling that of the best
Marine Ohrouometers, and in all cases so
exact as to accomplish all the practical
purposes oi a pocket time piece. More ;
than 17,000 persons in th* United States
are now wearing American watches, and j
the Company hive not heard more than
half a dozen complaints from all that I
number, and those arising from some
accidental derangement or misusage of
the works.— 4 V. F. Spirit of the Times.

A SuhjVcl for tlie Consideration of
nil directly Interested ill Cotton.
The subject for consideration is one iri
which we are all, more or less, interested,
especially the cotton planter, buyer,
shipper, and the insurance companies
The order in which the greater portion of
; the cotton is in that comes to our market,
is not at all creditable to the planter who
thus sends or brings to market. The
major portion is but about two-thirds j
, covered with bagging. There are some
j planters who take a pride in putting their
j cotton up weil, and in durable order; ■
■ yet there are many others who have not ;
, this pride. The bales, as a general thing.
are too heavy. Now if the planters will
pack their bales not to weigh exceeding
five hundred pounds per bale, and then
i put enough bagging to cover the cotton, it j
will almost universally come to market in
! good order, and will be the means of
1 saving much grumbling and dissatisfac
: lion between buyer and seller. There is
no earthly use or reason for the planters
to pack their cotton to weigh over five
hundred pounds per bale, and I think
that four hundred and fifty would suit
the majority of cotton dealers I am
satisfied it would suit the spinners better
than to have them so heavy as to weigh
exceeding five hundred pounds. Cotton
ticked lightly into bales, spins and sam
ples to a much greater advantage than if
it was packed so heavy as to make it
nearly one solid mass. In handling these
heavy bales, you cannot avoid tearing the
bagging, with the universal mode, of
handling cotton throughout nearly the
whole world. This exposes the cotton,
| which will accumulate dirt and trash,
which, to got separated from the cotton,
’ you have to lose a good portion of it.—
By having the balc3 of a reasonable
weight, and well covered with bagging,
it is less liable to be torn, not so liable to
take fire, and will not absorb water near
so fast (this latter looks unreasonable to
nearly every one, yet it is so: the tighter
you pack cotton, the sooner it will absorb
water,) and your insurance will be less.
Why is it that the-majority of the plant
ers can’t see this one thing, that they are
saving at least twenty cents (cotton 10c.
per pound) on every five yards of (India)
bagging put upon their bales—a much
greater profit than the merchant who
sells it makes? If a merchant sells a
barrel of molasses to a planter, and in
delivering it, it proves to be leaking a
little, the planter would not like to take
it in that order ; neither would he a sack
of salt, if torn a little, nor anything of a i
package, unless in good order. No; you
j will bring your cotton to market with
bagging torn, ends of bales out, and
nearly the whole sides exposed, and theu
! aspect to receive as much for it as your |
| neighbor did, when his was in good order, j
There was a time when heavy bales were
I of great advantage to the shipper, it was
s when we had no other outlet than the |
: river, through Apalachicola. Steamboats
I took cotton so much per bale; even then ‘■
| it was not equal, for a shipper thatshipped i
! light bales paid the same freight as one !
■ who shipped heavy ones. There is where ;
| the planters got the idea that heavy bales
i were the ones to carry to market. So they
| were, but things have changed. The ma-
I jority of the cotton now, is shipped by;
■ rail road, at so much per pound, it is al- j
o’ os t a universal thing, (especially from
the ports) to carry cotton by weight, and
it does not make any difference with the
buyer, shipper or spintier if the bales
i, dont weigh over (I venture to say) 450
pounds, they had rather have them, for
theu thee would be some probability to
get cotton to its destination in good order ;
but none with those heavy and unwieldy
bales. Now my planting friends, I hope
you will take my advice, at least once. I
want you all to profit by it, and let us see
if we can’t have our cotton to equal any,
as regards order at least. And have com
passion on the warehouse, rail road and
steamboat men, and even the draymen,
who have to tug at your unreasonable
heavy bales. I appeal to the buyers,
shippers, spinners, insurance companies,
ami all interested—even the planter him
self—to know if I am right in my views.
: I have given them honestly, with a view j
| of ail interested to be profited by them, j
i and don’t let it be said that King of Com- i
; merce is treated with such indifference. !

COTTON—The receipts yesterday amountel to
522 bales, and sates to 159 bates at prices ranging
from 10% to 10%e.
We have to notice another week ot Irish trade
in geimral supplies for the pi lutation and fanii
lies. The business in cotton hat not been so brisk,
owing to the withdrawal, tc some extent, of ship
pers from the market. We noticed iu our last that
a concession of %c. on the prevailing prices was
demanded, and in some measure acceded to hy
sellers, closing the market for that week at 10%
to 10%c. On Monday the market opened with
rather a dull feeling, and closed for the day at 10%
to 10%j. with sales of 7-1 bales, 12 bates of this
amouut which classed Middling Fair was sold at
11c.; Tuesday sales reached 293 hales at lu% to
10%c, and closed rather depressed ant? heavy;
Wednesday sales reached 368 bates at 10% to 10%. j
During the day lower rates were demanded, which |
factors refused. Thursday the tales reached 224 1
bales at prices tanging from 10% to 10%c. Friday
the sales reached 107 bales ut 10 to V-%C. Satur- |
day the sales amounted to 24 J bales at prices rang
mg from 10% to 10%c., a low bales classing Mid j
dling Fair sold for 10%c. Tho total sales for the i
week amount to 1,477 bales. Our report of sales
dees not include those m tdo on the wagons; we j
give only such as are reported to us by factors
The great bulk of cottou arriving on wagons is
Bold into second hands ujon its arrival, that ar
riving by rail read is geueialty stored and sold by
factors.
In another place we publish an article from a
gentleman of our city, who has spent a large por
tion of his time in the cotton trade. His sugges
tions are replete with scund reasoning, and could
the planter be induced to adopt Lis recommenda
tions in regard to the size and weight of bales as
well as the covering of the same, much feeling be
tween the buyer and seller would be avoided. We
commend its perusal to every cotton dealer,
whether bflyer or ether.
We cannot close this article without again catl
ing the attention of ail in our city, interested in
the cottou trade, to the want of a liuaici of Trade.
We find it exceedingly difficult to get proper quo.
tations of the market, as no two. nu n’s ideas of
classification or valuation correspond. A city do- I
ing ns heavy business as ours in cotton, or any
other special commodity, should, it seems to us, |
have some rule established whereby there may be i
regular ity in prices. The establishment of arulo
of this sort could not possibly work injury to any
one, and we see no good reason why an association
of those immediately interested sho#d mt bo
formed. We sincerely trust our suggestion may
find friends who will take hold and give us an as
sociation that shall establish fixed rules fer tho ‘
government of the cotton trade of our city.

by a massive and costly case. Hundreds of worth
less Watches are beautifully finished, and some
are exquisitely contrived to run badly and wear
out quickly- A great deal of work is most often
! a great deal of complexity,and all will admit that
j no amount cf mire polish will advantage any
piece that is radically malformed or inexactly
fitted. It is SIMPLICITY CF CONSTRUCTION,
and such mathematical correituiss in the size
and shape of evuy part as the application of ma-
S chineiy to the purpose alone Insures, that, with
[ sufficient nicety of finish, accomplishes the de
! sired result.
I The founders and manage!s of the American
YVatch Company of Waltham aio determined to
make TIME KEEFERS whether they makemoney
or not They do not undervalue ornament, but
they feel that they cannotovcrvalueTlME. THIS
IS THE MEANING OF THEIR WHOLE ESTAB
LISHMENT. Thoroughly faniliar, by practical
experience, with the evils inherent in foreign
YY'atches, —evils which all Watch dealers will bear
them out in saying, render nearly worthless for
all purposes of time keeping a large majority cf
foreign Watches, —they aim, through the substi
tution of mechanical teknee, for the uncertain
judgment cf the eye and imperfect skill cf the
hand, to produce an article that shall not only
look like a Watch, but perform the duty cf a
YVatch, adorning it with such a degree of finish
as is sufficient, and which, through ccstliness,
will not put it above the resell of any clase in the
community. AND THAT THEY HAVE DONE
THIS, AND ARE DOING IT, they confidently ap
i peal to the thousands whose daily coming and go
| ing is regulated by Waltham Watches, to say. In
| every system, even the best, there will be imper
fection, and instances of failure doubtless occur
in the Waltham manufacture, but in a system
which produces Watches which are IDENTICAL,
rather tiian SIMILAR, tho proportion of such
must be reduced to a minimum.
Having achieved this decisive victory,—a victo
ry with a reason for it, —the Americau YY'atch
Company is far from being disappointed at the
frequent and unscrupulous opposition it meets
from macy in the importing business. This op
position was to have been expected, and the occa
sion of it will be apparent to any one who consid
ers the extent of the importers’trade audits high
ly profitable character. The Company has no rea
son to bo dissatisfied with the amount of patron
age it receives, since it is obliged, by the multi
plication of orders, largely to increase its force,
and to work by night as well as day; but it is not
content that any portion of the community should
bo misled as to the real merit of its Watches.—
Unfortunately there is no article in common use
which people generally to little understand as a
Watch, a’id a man’s watchmaker is his only reli
ance for judgment. So long, therefore, as im
ported YY’atches yield a rich profit to tho importer,
the Company expects a good dee.l of deciding and
disparagement, wise shaking cf the head and faint
praise.
The Company is gratified to be able to say, how
ever, that there are hundreds in the trade wiicse
supreme interest is not in importation, or in an
old stock on hand, who have no natural antipa
thies to an American Watch; who, indeed, from
patriotic motives, would rather distribute them,
even if they were not tvnee as sound and holiest,
and cheap as any other —with whom YYV.tham
YY’atches may be found. The Company confident
ly’ maintains that its Watches will abide the con
clusive test of time-keeping, and upon that ground
it is content to rest its claims to the general pat
ronage. The public will bear iu mind that these
Watches are made for reputation, and with the
responsibility- of perpetual guaranty constantly
in view; for, however they may change hands,
i wherever and whenever they are found faulty,
! the Company is bound to make them good.
CAUTION. —As cur YY'atch is now extensively
counterfeited by foreign manufacturers, we have
to inform the public that no YY’atcli is of our pro
duction which is unaccompanied by a certificate of
genuineness, bearing the number of the YVatch,
j and signed by our Treasurer, R*. E. ROBBINS, or
by our predecessors, APPLETON, TRACY & CO.
<)o = ,As these YY'atches are for sale by Jewelers
generally throughout the Union, we -do not so
licit orders for single YY’atches. For the American
Watch Company,

JACK SMITH’S CORDIAL
IS A SURE REMEDY FOR

WE SPEAK THE TRUTH.
\TfE say Unit JACK SMITH’S CORDIAL is
V Y the most reliable remedy for this disease
that has been discovered as yet. This would
1 cease to be the truth if we should say it is infalli
ble. It is like every other remedy ; it finds hard
cases and fails to reach them.
But this Cordial has one great advantage over
all others; it is’ popular amcDgst the Laoies, and
it is so pleasant and effective lor small children
while teething. There is no danger in giving it.
BAD CASES, TAKE NOTICE.
After yon have tried everything else you can
think of, and fail to get relief, then send to No.
105 Broad street, Columbus, Ga.. and get a bottle

There are 350 to 400 acres cleared and in a rough
