Daily- Union Prayer Meetings.
We learn that the lionr of these prayer
meetings has ht#n jchaoged to B.', a . IH
mil that they will be held this week in
the Presbyterian Church.
Fine Cigars,
Mr. J. L. Celia, 152 Broad street, has
presented us with several specimens of
very line cigars of two different brands.
e have tried both, and do not hesitate
to say to the devotees of “the weed” that
these emphatically deserve a puff.
Death of Ur. Tliok. Daivton.
We regret to learn the death of this
gentleman, which occurred Thursday
night, 12 o’clock, at the residence of Ed
g.u Ci. Dawson, Lsq. His disease was
consumption, and his decease was not un
expected.
Rhine Wine.
Messrs. L.uu <& Frank have just re
ceived a lot ot Rhine Wine, directly im
ported. They will please accept thanks
for a bottle, it is a genuine article and
no mistake, liy referring to advertise
ment it will be seen that they have
twenty dozen bottles more of the same
sort.

Opera G'luttueg.
Messrs. S. llothchild & Bio. are pre
pared to accommodate such as our citi
zens as desire them, with a fiue article of
Opera Glasses. Now that the Theatre is
here and the Opera is anticipated, it is a
good opportunity for all to provide them
selves with these desired articles.
Information Wanted.
1 he Postmaster of this city has received
a letter from R. E. Stephens, of Linden,
Cass county, Texas, who is desirous of
receiving information of the whereabouts
of his mother, Mary Stephens, supposed
to be in this country. She is represented
to be about 35 years of'age. Any one
able to afford the desired information,
would confer a favor by addressing 11. E.
Stephens, Linden, Cass county, Texas.
Something Needing Attention.
We desire to call the attention of our
Marshal and his deputy to the fact that
the side walks of our city are very un
necessarily encumbered with boxes, in
direct violation of the ordinances of the
city. We would furthermore remind them
that wo very often see piles of dirt and
trash, the cleanings of Saturday, left in
thestreets over Sunday, besides any quan
tity of bacon casks, barrels, etc. Now all
this is wrong, and does not speak well for
the cleanly habits of our Marshal. More
than this, it looks extremely filthy to
strangers visiting our eity. Will you,
gentlemen, give immediate attention to
this matter ?
Ail Item for the marshal.
It bus been our misfortune—yes, mis
fortune—to cross the old bridge twice
within the past week, aud we must say
that nothing but dire necessity could in
duce us to do so again. Really that
bridge is the most filthy place we have
been in for some time, is worse than a
horse stable ; and how any lady can bring
her courage up to pass through it is un
unaccountable to us. Can it not be swopt
and made fit for decent people to pass
through ? We employ hands to cleanse
the city, and as the bridge is one of the
streets of the city, and more used than
any other, it should receive special at
tention.
Some Potato.
Mr. Ridenhour has laid upon our table
a potato of the yam species, which is a
monster in appearance and weight. We
have not takon tho tremble to measure and
weigh it, believing it no use, for there
could not more than one more have grown
in the hill where that growed. If tCis is
a specimen of the way Mr. Ridenhour
raises potatoes he is some pumpkins in
the potato line, sure.
Bill of Injunction Filed. *
We learu that certain parties have filed
a bill, enjoining the builders of the new
Market, in this city. There seems to be
considerable feeling in the matter, espe
cially in the lower part of the city. We
‘never have favored the building of the
new market, simply on the ground that
the financial condition of the city would
not, in our judgment, justify the expen
diture. And we trust this vexed ques
tion may be settled, without any further
recourse to law, as a law suit may possi
bly end in larger expense to the city than
the building of two markets.

More Room for tlie Colton.
We are pleasod to be able to state that
tho three warehouses under contract are
fast approaching completion, and will
soon be ready to bouse cotton. Planters
need Lave no fears of the weather on
their precious bales this winter, if they
will send their cotton to Columbus.—
This, combined with a body of as clever
cotton men as were ever located in any
community, should make the receipts of
Columbus more than last year. Send on
your cotton as fast as you wish ; we will
house and sell it for you to your satis
faction.
Likely Negroes.
There was never brought to this mar
ket a likelier lot of young negroes than
those now at the mart of Messrs. Hatch
er & McGehee, on Broad street. They
have families remarkable for their ap
pearance of intelligence ami health, aud
young boys and girls capable of training
for any branch of domestic industry.
Among them are some oxcelleut seam
stresses and No. 1 housekeepers. No
one can fail to be pleased with the ap
pearance of these negroes,— Enquirer.
Falsely Packed Cotton.
A man, whose name we suppress lor
the present, was detected on last Saturday
iu having sold cottou on our streets which
was faisely packed. As soon as the dis
covery was made, a warrant was issued
for his arrest, and placed in the hands of
Constable Lloyd, who soon came up with
tho offender. Not at all fancying the
errand of Mr. Lloyd, the fellow gave “leg
bail.” and being rather fleet of foot,
escaped the grab of his Constableship. —
The proper papers for his arrest have,
however, been made out.
An Improvement.
We are glad to see that the Rail Road
Companies have erected a platform at
the common depet, which proves a very
great convenience to passengers, partic
ularly the ladies. Heretofore it was
necessary to have a small step ladder to
get into the cars, now it is quite easy.
The next thing is a shed to shelter the
travelers from the burning sun and pelt
ing rain drops.
Squirrels.
These little animals, just now, are un
commonly plenty. Throughout Balti
more and Howard counties, the woods,
and orchards, and fields, are full of
them. They embrace, it is said, every
variety, even white and black squirrels.
A white one, nearly as large as a fox
squirrel, was shot by a man named
Thomas, near Pleasant Hill, ou Tuesday.
Baltimore Clipper.
The Columbus Guards.
Among other gratifying evidences of
; the returning life and vivacity nf the fall
’ and winter season, we tire rejoiced to
note the renewal of periodical parades bf
: our military companies. Yesterday after
noon that well-drilled and regulated
company, the Columbus Guards, Captain
Paul J. Semtnes commanding, turned out
and paraded through the principal
i ! ' ire *ffs, to the music of the “ear-piercing
fife and soul-stirring drum.” They made
a highly respectable appearance, and
went through the various evolutions with
celerity and precision. Captain Semmes
is an accomplished officer, a graduate of
the Academy at West Point, and has
devoted himself to the study of military
tactics ron amore.
The military companies of Columbus
are the pride of the city.
Theater.
Crisp’s Star Company, from Nashville,
commenced a series of performances in
this city last evening, at Temperance
Hall. By consulting an advertisement
this morning, it will be seen that another
and attractive bill is presented for this
evening. We are assured that the en
tertainments will fully repay all who
may patronize them. To-morrow evening
Mrs. W. M. Ward makes her first appear
ance. Though the Company are “on
their way to Montgomery,” we hope and
believe the encouragement they receive
will induce them to tarry in Columbus for
a season.

(funs for Children,
The Mobile Mercury gives an account
of tiie following accident which resulted
from the common practice of buying
guns for children :
“ We heard a day or two ago of an ac
cident which had nearly proved fatal,
happening to a lad by the bursting of a
four dollar gun with which he was shoot
ing birds. The barrel burst lengthwise,
from one end to the other, and the lock
struck him in the forehead, tearing the
scalp almost entirely from his head, and
laying him senseless and quivering on the
ground. His companion, a brave little
fellow of thirteen years old, ran to the
nearest water, filled his hat from ir, and
by repeatedly sprinkling it into the
wounded boy’s face, restored him to con
sciousness and assisted him home, first
taking the precaution to discharge his
own gun, lest some further accident
might happen.”
How to Know when a Distant
Battle is being Fought.
An English writer, in a recent work,
mentions that on the Sunday iu June
when the battle of Waterloo was lought,
and when everybody in England was ex
pecting a grand struggle—as it was known
that Napoleon had crossed into the Neth
erlands —it chanced that between the
service on that eventful day, a clergy
man in Kent was walking in his garden,
aud his gardener, an old soldier who had
fought in Spain—said, “There’s a fight,
sir, going on somewhere ; for I remember
when we were in the Peninsula we always
knew when a cannonade was taking
place, wherever it might be, by a crumb
ling of fresh mould.” He then took a
spade and dug down a single foot, aud
along the smooth surface left by the steel
an imperceptible trembling shook down
little pellets of the soil. “That’s it, sir,”
said the gardener, “they are at it, sure
enough.”
From tlio Augusta Dispatch.
Not Mrs. Nelson.
A correspondent thus contradicts an
item which we copied from an exchange:
Calhoun, Ga., Oct. 3, 1859.
Ed. Dispatch— Dear Sir: —ln one of
your last week’s issues (I think Friday)
I see the death of Mrs. Nelson, wife of
General Nelson, published. In justice to
Mrs. Nelson and numerous friends, please
contradict the statement. Mrs. Nelson
resides in this place and is in good health
and comfortable circumstauc|s, and feels
somewhat aggrieved at being advertised as
an object of charity or a beggar.
Yours, truly, W.
Card from John C. Ileenan.
Ed. X. I’’. Tribune —Sir: I have been
informed, through the medium of the
public press, and from those who were
present and heard him, that Mr. Morri
sey stated a few days since that he would
fight aDy man in the world, aud me in
particular, for SIO,OOO. If this indeed
be Mr. Morrisey’s wish, I shall be most
hrppy to accommodate him, either before
or alter my contest with Sayers for the
Championship of England. I will put up
a forfeit to fight him for SIO,OOO, at the
time and place that may be mutually
agreed upon, according to the rules of the

The Director of the Statistical Depart
ment at Berlin, C. F. W. Datirich, classi
fies the population, according to creeds,
as follows: The whole population of the
earth is estimated at one billion aud two
hundred millions, of whom, Christians
constitute 25.77 per cent.; Jews 0.38 per
cent.; Asiatic religions 46.15 per cent.;
Mahomedan 12.31 per cent.; Pagan

Trade of St. Louis.
The annual report of the trade of St.
Louis for the year ending October Ist,
shows a decline in the trade of that city.
The decrease in wheat exceeds 400,000
bushels ; that in oats reached nearly the
same figures. The decrease in the re
ceipts of flour amount to 200,000 barrels.
The falling off in hemp is 6,510 bales,
and in whisky 17,000 barrels, compared
with the previous year for the same
period.
The Dallas (Ala.) Gazette says that the
grading of the Marion and Cahaba Rail
lload is completed. The iron is laid
seven miles and only six remains to be
laid. Ou Friday last the first load of cot
ton, consisting of twenty-eight bales, wa§
brought into Cahaba on the cars. It was
from the plantation of Mr. Wm. Curtis,
who was one of the pioneers in the set

Classic Pun l>y John Randolph.
Mr. Randolph, at an early period of
his Congressional career, submitted to the
House a resolution of inquiry in relation
to some measure of public interest. A
Mr. Dana, from one of the eastern States,
proposed an amendment, which he asked
Mr. Randolph to accept as a substitute
for his resolution. Mr. Randolph’s in
stantaneous reply was: “Mr. Speaker,
Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes. I don’t
like that Dana.”
An Awe-Struck Burglar.
A burglar entered a house, in Henry
street, Brooklyn, a few days since, and
ransacked the lower rooms, after which
he proceeded to the second story. In a
chamber lay the remains of a child
dressed for the grave, and in an inner
room was the mother—the door connect
ing the two rooms being sufficiently ajar
to enable her to see her child without
being seen herself. The thief entered
the chamber, his hands filled with booty,
and continued his search till he discov
ered the dead, when, uttering an audible
sigh, he quietly laid down his ill-gotten
burden and retired from the room and
house as empty-handed as when he en
tered. The mother in the midst of her
grief, was too much agitated to raise an
alarm.

COXTuN—The receipts yesterday amounted to
1,00 l bales, and sales lili bales at the following
‘juotatione: Middlings 9% to 9%c.; Strict Mid
dlings lo to lOp^c.; GOod Middlings loJ4c.
We have nothing particular to notice in regard
to our market tor tho past week. The transac
tons hale been on a very limited scale, in coi.se.
quince ol planters limits upon their cotton These
limits buyers did not leel satisfied iu coming up
to, hence the liniited amount of transactions.
There has been little or no change in prices du
ring the week, and the quotations given below
have been the prevailing rates. True, them have
been easts where fancy lots, reiccttd by street
buy ers, have brought a shade more than we quote,
hue such sales could not he consideiod stiictly
legitimate. Planters should hear this fact iu
mind iu rcctiving account of sales from their lac
tors. While their crops aie not select, stieet buy
ers make up fancy Middling or Strict Middling
lots by taking out a bale at a time from street
loads purchased, and thus lotrn what is called fan
cy or selected lots, aud which are sold for a shade
better prices than the planters crop as it runs. I
The advices from Europe during the week have
not been of a character to iuspira confidence in
prices or induce buyers to enter the maiket;
there have been a regular series of detlines and
with very small sales. This of course, has great
effect iu forcing down pric.eH. Iu regard to a re
turn to former prices we are unable to express any
opinion; but do cot hope for much better rates
than the present. There is very little doubt but
we will have a crop fully equal to last year’s, and
if such be the lact, prices are bound to rule low
for the whole year. If we should advise planters
to any course it would he to sell. There is risk in
holding aud a certainty iu selling; nevertheless,
we do not desire any person to rest their action
upon our views. We give the following as tlio I
closing quotations of our market on Saturday at”
ternoou : Middling 9% to 10; Strict Middling 10 |

American vs. Foreign Watches.
A CARL).
XHK ONLY ENTIRELY SATISFACTORY
PROOF OF A GOOD WATCII 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 iqually and with 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 compensation are introduced, or
that tho 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 qu: ckb- A great deal of woik is most often
a great deal of complexity, and all will admit that
no amount of mere polish will advantage any
place that is radically malformed or inexactly
fitted, it is SIMPLICITY UP CONSTRUCTION,
and such mathematical coricctmss in the size
and shape of every part as the application of ma
chinery to the purpose alone insures, that, with
sufficient nicety of finish, accomplishes the de
sired result.
Tho founders aud managers of tho Ameiicun
Vt atch Company of Waltham are determined to
make TIME-KEEPERS whether they make muney
or nut They do not undervalue ornament, hut
they feel that they can no to vervains TIME. THIS
IS THE MEANING OF THEllt WHOLE ESTAB
LISHMENT. Thoroughly familiar, by practical
experience, with the evils inherent in loreign
Watches, —evils which all Watch dealers v.TTI hear
them out in saying, render nearly worthless for
all purposes of time keeping a large majority of
foreign Watches,—they aim, through tho substi
tution of mechanical science, for the uncertain
judgment cf the eye and imperfect skill of the
hand, to produce an article that shall not only
look like a Watch, but perform the duty of a
Watch, adorning it with such a degree of finish
as is sufficient, and which, through costliness,
will not put it above tlie reach of any class in the
community. AND THAT THEY HAVE DONE
THIS, AND ARE DOING IT, they confidently ap
peal to the thousands whose daily coming and go
ing is regulated by Waltham Watches, to say. In
every system, even the heat, there will he imper
fection, aud instances of failure doubtless occur
in the Waltham manufacture, but in a system
which produces Watches which are IDENTICAL,
rather than SIMILAR, the proportion of such
must be reduced to a minimum.
Having achieved this dt-eiaive victory,—a victo
ry with a reason for it, —the Americau Watch
Company is far from being disappointed at the
frequent aud unscrupulous opposition it meets
from many in tho importing business. This op
position was to have been expected, and tlie occa
sion of it will be apparent to any one who consid
ers the extent of the importers’ trade andits high
ly profitable character. The Company has no rea
son to be dissatisfiod 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 ns well as day; but it is not
conteutthatany portion of the community should
be misled as to the real merit of its Watches. —
Unfortunately there is no article iD common use
which people generally so little understand as a
Watch, and a man’s watchmaker is his only reli
ance for judgment. So long, therefore, as im
ported Watches yield a rich profit to the importer-,
the Company expects a good deal of decrying and
disparagement, wise shaking of the head aud faint
praise.
The Company is gratified to be able to say, how
ever, that there are hundreds in the trade whose
supremo 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 twice as sound and honest,
and cheap as any other—with whom Waltham
Watches 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 in mind that these
Watches are niado for reputation, and with the
responsibility of perpetual guaranty constantly
in view; for, however they may change hands,
wherever and whenever they are found faulty,
the Company is bound to make them good.
CAUTION. —As our Watch is now extensively
counterfeited by foreign manufacturers, we have
to inform the public that no Watch is of our pro
duction which is unaccompanied by a certificate of
i/enuineness, bearing the number of the Watch,
and signed by our Treasurer, R. E. ROBBINS, or
by our predecessors, APPLETON, TRACY & CO.
tJTV,As these Watches are for sale by Jewelers
generally throughout tno Union, we do not so
licit orders for single Watches. For the American
Watch Company,
