The Fall term of the Superior Court for Muscogee county, was to have com menced its ses.-ion yesterday, but Judge ‘Vorrill not arriving, the Clerk, in accor dance with the law, adjourned over umil Wednesday morning We understand that the cause of the Judge’s absence, is altogether of a providential nature. _ 1 Tlie Circus.

Os course there will be a general hoard- 1 ing up of quarters and halves for ihe oc casion by all fond of the sports of the Ring. North is one of the best eques trians in America.

Advices from Galveston of the 18th, state that Bishop Pierce arrived at San Antonio on the 14th ir.st., by the over land mail from California. lie was to leave in a few days for the Conference at Goliad. The Bishop’s health was not good, but was improving. G. W. Atkinson & Cos. These enterprising merchants, wishing to make a change in their business and firm, ofler for sale until the first day of January next, their large and varied as sortment of dry goods, clothing, &c., at New York cost. Purchasers have rare inducements presented to tuem. We in vite attention to the advertisement else where. Fine Chewing Tobacco. Mr. J. W. Sappington has presented us with several samples of fine chewing to bacco, which is of anew brand, and put up in a style entirely new and very con venient. Not being addicted to its use, it was submitted to the judgment of several others, who have been giving it a practi cal test ever since. They pronounce it to be of a first rate quality. Lovers of j the weed prepared expressly for chew- j ing, would do well to call at Sapping ton’s and try it. Sport anti Usefulness Combined. Mr. W. It Inraau, connected with the House of Ibbotsou & Cos., New Orleans, lias exhibited to us “Illson’s Animal Trap,” of which he is the proprietor. It was invented in England, and patented for England and America. It is a simple and ingenious contrivance, and may well be termed a terror to animals. Few ani mals can escape it when properly set. Floated on the water, ducks, geese, &c., can be caught, and set upon the land, foxes, minks, rabbits an 1 even wild tur keys may be ensnared and taken. It is without doubt, a cheap and useful inven tion, and we do not hesitato thus to rec ommend it. Mr. Inman may be found during his stay in this city, at the Perry House. America Illustrated. We have seen the prospectus of the above work, which is a history of North and South America from its first diseov cry to the present Administration. It embraces an account of the early discov ery by the Northmen, Spaniards, Portu guese, French, English, Dutch, &c., with their sufferings in founding the Colonies; wars with the Indians; an account of the various revolutions of the several Colonies, with the subsequent history of the Republics thus established, by Henry Brownell, A. M., in two volumes. An ad ditional attraction of the work is its beautiful steel engravings, by the first artists of the country. The work we re gard as very valuable, and a decided im provement on any previous history of America. Eds. Sun : I find myself announced in your issue of Saturday morning as a can didate for Mayor of this city. I also find myself announced in the other daily papers over different signatures. But, with many thanks to those friends whose kind partiality has induced them to put forward my name for this honora ble and responsible office, I take this oc casion to state publicly, that I am no candidate for the office, aud request that you will at once withdraw my name from your columns. Respectfully, D. B. THOMPSON. Entertainment at Temperance Hall. To-night it will be remembered Prof. Love, assisted by Madame Love, give their first entertainment at Temperance Hall. The press generally speak in high terms of their performances. Asa specimen, ; we take the following from the N. 0. ; Delta : The shouts of applause and laughter which came from Armory Hall last night, iuformed the uninitiated passer-by that something extraordinary was going on j within. Professor and Madame Love ‘ seemed to exert thetnSfelves to please the ] large aud appreciative audience which had assembled to witness their feats of magic, ventriloquism, &C. That they did so, none could doubt, who watched the smil ing faces of those who sat the entire en tertainment through, and only left reluc tantly after the curtain had fallen. The Professor did a number of new aud beau tiful experiments, defying the closest scrutiny. Madame Love in her role was excellent, and became a favorite with the audience from the first. The Professor promises to perform a trick which will surpass anything ever attempted in this city. He agrees to take any lady from the assembly and make her ; become invisible to all in the house, while she still retains her seat, not by envel oping her with anything tangible either Every body should go to Armory Hall to see these extraordinary performances. Melancholy Suicide. New York, Nov. 22.—John D. Win slow, agent of Sackett. Davis & Cos., Jew i elers, committed suicide by shooting hitn | self through the head. The cause of this | act was attributed to the fact that yester I day he entrusted a box ot jewelry valued |at $3,000 to a colored porter to convey Ito the office of Draper, Thrifft & Cos.. i which, not being delivered, he supposed ■ was sloleu. He informed the police, who j- were unable to recover it. Before the commission of the deed, he wrote letters to his mother at Providence. 1 This morning his employers and Mr. ■ Arnold recovered the box, which had been left by mistake at another jewelry estab lishment in Market street. ♦ Gen. Charles J. W illiams. The Milledgeville correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle says that General Wil liams, of Muscogee, is ‘‘the haudsomest man in the House,” and adds that be is ‘•a man also of ability.” Chas. J. Williams is not only handsome and intelligent, but always saving and excepting bis Democ racy, one of the best hearted gentleman in the State. If the party will compel lock, we think a worthy successor would be found in Gen. Chas. J. Williams.— Up- WjLpn Pilot, TELEGRAPHIC ITEMS. Washington, Nov. 23.—Daniel B.

Genuine Sherry Wine. I am now supplying the trade with pure Cognac P<ramiy, in bottles, both for medical and private use. The immense success that has crowned my efforts toplacei a pure Gin within the reach of all, under the name of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, and to drive out of the market the pernicious com pounds sold as Gin throughout the country, led many leading druggists, apothecaries and medical men, for some years past, to solicit mo to pursue the same course in regard to the article of Brandy. I should have complied with these requests from all quarters long ago, but was deterred from it bf the fact, that owing to the exhorbitant prices of Brandy in France, consequent upon tlie shortness of the grape crop for some years, there was no chance of my being able to inport the choicest Brandy, bottle it and sell it at moderate prices. Fortunately for me, the grape crop for the last and previous year (anil the prospect for this) was abundant, and prices of Brandy have fallen to the standard of ten years ago. The duty on Brandy is also seventy per cent lower, and I have now made arrangements with four B-andy exporters iu Franco, of the highest repute, and am regularly receiving consignments of the best Cognac Brandy, which I am bottling and selling.as Wolfe’s Genu ine Cognac Brahdy. I guarantee, with my seal, labels and certificates, the Brandy so bottled by me, as the pure, unadulterated article, and it will be found, when used as a medicine, a beverage, or a cordial, healthful and invigorating. It haß been a matter of universal complaint, that a bottle of pure, unmixed French Brandy, was very difficult to obtain, and tlio purchaser, nine times iu ten, was deceived with a vile manufactured imitation. Os all descriptions of ardent spirits, Brandy, from its high price, has been the one articlethat mixers and sellers have turned their attention to, and millions of gallons of the so-called French Brandy have been scattered annually through the lamb and have been the primary cause of murders, sni. cides, cruelties and crimes, and have sent thou sands loan early grave, self-destroyers, from de. lirium tremens, mania-a-potu and horrors, names unknown, until unprincipled men began to make madlenicg compounds and sell it as the pure French Brandy. The virtures of pure French Brandy need not be told by me. They are known throughout the world as a medicine or mild stimulant. It is, as the French nation poetically call it “Eau de la vie,” Ihe water of life. But this applies to it only when pure and unadulterated. Manufactured with the fearful ingredients tliatmake agood imitation, it becomes a death drink to innocent tens of thou sands of onr race. To remedy a fearful evil, I have commenced importing Brandy, bottling it, and eelling it as “Wolfe’s Genuine Cognac Bran dy.” lam daily receiving orders from the drug gists and apothecaries in all parts of the Union, to I sell it lor medical purposes.

November 29.1859. J COTTON.—The receipts on yesterday were bales. The market is quite dull, only a few -mall lot-, not exceeding 25 hales, changed hands, at former prices. Shippers are dilatory | in coming forward, while factors are holding on. being unwilling to submit to a reduction. Review for the. week tTiding .Vote 26 th, 1850. We are called upon to report a week of “masterly inactivity” in Cotton. It opened, progressed and closed, in every material re spect, similar to last week : the transactions in-doors have been restricted to such planters’ lots as were instructed to be sold without limit; in the absence of anything like a gen eral demand, factors have not felt it a duty to press discretionary cottons; local speculators cannot sell without loss, and they have made every effort to “ hold on 2’ in the mean time | their stocks are accumulating, and the weight ; more'and more difficult to carry. The business of the week lias been mostly on the streets for account of shippers, and these sales, we would again state, arc not included in the report of daily transactions. During the past two weeks planters have been more inclined to store; the most of them having sold a majority of their crops, are dis j posed to speculate on future prices; they have ! certainly never been in a better position to do i so. The very high value placed upon lands and negroes has diminished the inducement to invest hurriedly in that kind of property. | Cotton at 10c. is regarded cheaper and a better article to hold than property at its present valu ation. The particulars of daily transactions are too unimportant to claim especial note. The sales on Monday footed 239 bales; on Tuesday 258 bales; on Wednesday 827 bales; Thursday be i ing a holiday nothing was reported; Friday 631 bales; and Saturday 56 bales. During the week there have been some or ders executed for fine cotton, say 200 bales classing Middling Fair to Fair at 10%c., and one sale reported of about 50 bales at lie; the pro portion of this class of cotton is so very small this season, that we feel authorized in omitting them in our quotations. In submitting tire following quotations we would remark, that they are the asking rates that would bring considerable cotton on sale; at what prices it would be necessary to submit to induce purchasers, it is not with us to say : QUOTATIONS. Low Middling 9 y, to 9% Middling 9% to 10 Strict Middling 10% to 10% Good Middling to Middling Fair.. .10% to 10% Middling Fair to Fair nominal Receipts for the week have been 5,937 bales, being 1,204 bales in excess of the corresponding week of last year. The total for the season is 9,391 bales short of last year. Shipments lrave this ’week been much the largest of the season. The Muscogee Rail Road, with a large increase of freight cars, has been able to clear its yard of cotton, and thus silence the complaints of shippers, of which they have had so much cause for some weeks. A fall of rain the early part of the week has given us a very good river to Apalachicola, and several hundred bales have taken that direction; seve ral hundred bales have gone to Montgomery for shipment to the Gulf.

Iy3dp IT IS NOT TOO MUCH TO SAY SINCE ALL, OLD AND YOUNG AFFIRM ITS TRUTH. YIZ: THAT Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative WILL preserve infallibly the growth and color of the hair, if used two or three times a week, to any imaginable age. Perfectly restore the gray, cover the bald with nature’s own orna ment, the hair; make it more soft and beautiful than any oil, and preserve the scalp free from all diseases to the greatest age. Statesmen, Judges, Attorneys, Doctors, Clergymen, Professional men, and Gentlemen and Ladies of all classes, all over the world, bear testimony that we do not say too much in its favor. Head the following, and judge: Hickory Grove, St Charles Cos., Nov. 19, 1867. Prop. O. J. Wood —Dear Sir: Some time last summer we were induced to use some of your Hair Restorative, aud its effects were so wonderful we feel it our duty, to you and the afflicted, to re port it. Our little son’s head for some time had been perfectly covered with 60res, aud some called it scald head. The hair almost entirely came off in consequence, when a friend, seeing his sufferings, advised us to use your Restorative, we did so with little hope of success, but to our surprise, and that of all our frifnds, a very few applications re moved the disease entirely, and anew and luxo riant crop of hair soon started out, und we can uow say that our boy has as healthy a scalp, aud as luxuriant a crop of hair as any other child. We can, therefore, and do hereby’, recommend your Restorative, as a perfect remedy for all diseases of the scalp and hair. We are yours re spectfully, GKO. W. IiIGGKNBOTHAM, SARAH A. HIGGENBOTHAM. Prof. Wood —Dear Sir: My hair had, for sev eral years, been becoming premalurely gray, ac companied by a harshness which rendered the constant application of oil necessary in dressing it. When I oomuienced using your Hair Restorative about two months ago it was in that condition; and having continued the use till within the last three weeks, it has turned to its natural color, and assumed a softness and lustre greatly to be preferred to those produced by the application of oils or any other preparation I have ever used. I regard it as an indispensable article for every la dy’s toilet, whether to bo used as a Hair Restora tive or for the simple purpose of dressing or beau tifying the hair. You have permission to refer to me all who entertain any doubt of its performing all that is claimed for it. MRS. C. SYMONDS. Cincinnati, Ohio. Feb. 10, 1857. 114 Third st. Wellington, Mo., Dec. 5,1857. Prof. Wood —Dear Sir: By the advies of a friend ol►mine, who had been using your Hair Restora tive, I was induced to try it. I had the fever, some time last May, and nearly every hair in my head came out. Now my hair has come in a great deal thicker than ever it was. Nothing but a duty and sympathy that 1 feel to communicate to oth ers who are afflicted as I have been, would induce me to give this public acknowledgement of the benelit I have received from Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative. Yours respectfully. A. R. JACOBS. The Restorative is put up in bottles of 3 sizes, viz: large, medium and small; thesmall holds a pint and retails for one dollar per bottle; the medium holds at least twenty per cent, more in proportion than the small, retails for two dollars per bottle; the large holds a quart. 40 per cent, j more in proportion, and retails for #3 a bottle, i O.J.

A gold modal was awarded the C> uipany I-y the : Massachusetts Mechanical Association, 1856. A gold medal was also awarded them by tbo American Institute at New York, in 1857. The Company also received the first premium— a gold medal—from the Franklin Institute. Phila delphia, in 1858. These watches have now been in the market for nearly ten years, during which time they haTe teen tested as to accuracy, durability aud cilia biiity, in every conceivable manner, and have proved themselves to he the most satisfactory time-pieces evtr offered to the public. This result has been biought about by a stiict application of mechanical science to the construc tion of the Watch from its very inception, render ing it, when finished, mathematically correct in all its proportions, and. necessarily, as perfect a time keeper as it is possible to make. Thu Company have tested their Watches, in many instances, by actual daily noting, and the result of this test has been that they have exhibited a rate equal in reyularity to the best Marine Chronom eter. The following certificates are from geutle uien who have carried their Watches with them in their daily avocations, and are, therefore, reliable indications of what msy be expected ft cm the American Watch when in ordiuary active use: Letter from idiuf Morphy, the celebrated Chess Player.

Mr. R. now pledges himself that his present company is equal, aye, superior to any of his previous combinations, and trusts tho public will discriminate between his Troupe and the numerous trifling little humbugs that steal the Thunder of Great Exhibitions, aud swindle the communities through which they pass. His Company will visit, during its present tour, the whole country, from Mason A Dixon’s line to tho Floridas, and from the Land of Flowers to the baso of the Rocky Mountains, to that his old patrons will have an opportunity to witness the entertainments of n Genuiue Menagerie and Cir cus ; and are politely requested to let the little humbugs pass by, and wait for the Big Show. Posters and large Pictorial Bills will announce the exact timo of the arrival of the Company. MR. WM. C. PRESTON, the Traveling Agent, will precede the Company some two or three Week, and make the aeccssary arrangements with the Press, Landlords, Ae., Ac. novll3tdAw3t Dll. J.
