LOCAL AFFAIRS. - r • 1 ■ -v-tt —■— i 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. Cue Day Later from California. St. Louis, Sept. 27.—The Overland j Mail arrived in this city to night, bring ing California dates of the Oth Septem ber. Mo uews of importance is furnished by the San Francisco papers. The Los Angelos Vineyard ot the Oth states that Major Armistead had concluded a peace with the Mojave Indians, on their agree ing to relinquish all claim to the valley in the immediate vicinity of Fort Mojave. The Marietta Advocate says : On Tues day A. J. Lingo, to whom anew trial lias been refused by tbe Superior Court, was brought out from jail and received sen tence. lie is to be executed on tbe 21st of October. Fi.r tb Daily Sun. 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. !

DAILY SUN OFFICE, \ * Columbus, Ga., October 4.1859. / 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.

Oct. 4-2.wd&W Auctioneers. . THE WATCHJUESTION. American vs. Foreign Watches. A CARD. THE ONLY ENTIRELY SATISFACTORY PROOF OF A (-OOD WATCH IS, THAT IT TELLS CORRECTLY. AND WITHOUT INTER RUPTION, THE TRUE TIME OF DAY. All other tests are illusory. If the Watch will not perform (qnally and wi-h accuracy, it is to no purpose whatever that it is elaborately finished, that curious shapes and patented devices are adopted, that novel escapements and ingenious contrivances for condensation are introduced, or that the whole is covered by a famous name and 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.

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.
