Elsewhere u ay be found a communica tion from our worthy Mayor, which we heartily eudorse. Its suggestions are worthy of serious attention.* Van Amburgh’s Double Show. In to day’s paper appears an adver tisement of this celebrated establish ment. Exhibitions will be given the 9th and 10th of this month. We invite at tention to it. Stennier Marianna. Me learn that a dispatch has been re ceived in this city, stating that the above steamer, Van Vechten, master, had ar rived at New Orleans. She will probably be at our wharf early next week. — Tlie River. Yesterday the river bad risen at this point about four feet and rising. The Itiver Bride leaves this morning for Chattahoochee. The prospect for uninterrupted naviga tion for sometime to come is very good. The Citizens’ Meeting. From the proceedings of the meeting to be faund elsewhere, we perceive that all three of the individuals mentioned have been ordered to leave the city, and provision made to soe that it was com plied with. Although the evidence did not justify, in the opinion of the meeting, anything like violence, yet it was suffi cient to cause them to be regarded as very snspicious characters, and their ab sence preferable to their presence here. Theater, Messrs. Crisp & Canning present an attractive bill for this evening. Miss Lo gan’s second appearance will be in the character of Pauline, in Bulwer’s play, the “Lady of Lyous.” The perform ance will conclude with the laughable farce of “Dead Shot,” in which Mr. Sheldon, the favorite comedian, will ap pear. We are pleased to observe the re turn of several favorite members of the old Company, who were here a few weeks since. Tlie Circus. Yesterday North’s National Circus, heralded by, Ihe music of the Calliope, arrived in the city, and exhibited in the afternoon and at night, to good audiences. Good order was preserved, and the vari ous performances gave very general sat isfaction. The Company is one of the best in the country. An Improvement- We are pleased to notice that the Coun cil are planking what is commonly termed “Bridge ltow.” Overseer Iluckeba, with the street hands, is doing the work in au expeditious and substantial manner. The Board of Aldermen deserve the thanks of every one, whose business calls them through that street, for doing a work so much needed. Probable Homicide. A difficulty occurred about 8 o’clock Sunday morning, near the warehouse of Dillard, l’owell & Cos., between William Pike and Jefferson Upton, in which the latter received a severe stab in the left side, and is considered to be in a danger ous condition. Pike fled to Alabama, and had not been arrested up to 7 o’clock last evening, though the police were in pur suit of him. Sew Patents. Iu the published official list of Patents for the 29th ult., we observe that one has been awarded to Mr. George H. Peabody, of Columbus, Ga , for improvement in cotton-pickers’ wallets ; also one to John M. Lanier, for improvement in apparatus for taming horses. Pine Cigars. R. A. Ware & Son having received a supply of extra fine cigars have furnished us with specimens of four different brands. We find it difficult to decide which we prefer, but are satisfied that any body in search of a good cigar can find one at Ware & Son’s. * ‘ * Change in the Weather. After a long dry spell, accompanied by weather disagreeably and unprecedentedly warm for the season, we have been favored with a refreshing rain, which commenced falling Saturday night. We hope the change will give an impetus to business generally. New Baptist Church. We are glad to notice that the walls of this handsome building are receiving the frame for the roof. We trust that the energetic contractors, Messrs Barringer and Morton, may be able to complete the entire building within the time specified, notwithstanding the many difficulties they have been compelled to meet on the way. Georgia Grays. This beautiful Company, Capt. Shep herd, turned out on Saturday evening, and enlivened the streets with a parade. The Grays are admirably drilled, and evince a thorough acquaintance with the manual and other exercises in the facility w'th which they went through the differ ent evolutions. Success to the Grays, aud frequent parades, sny we! MARRIED, On the Ist inst., at the residence of Mr. How land, by Itev. W. W. RebisoD, Mr. James It. McGeijsk, of this city, to Miss Averilla E.

REVIEW OF THE MARKET FOR THE WEEK ENDING DEC. 3. Our last report of the market, closing on the 26th ult., left the trade much depressed, with very little doing, and an “irrepressible conflict” going on between buyer and seller as to who should yield to the views of each other. Mon day, the first day under review, was remarka bly inclement, and arrested What might other wise have been a good day’s business: Tuesday, at an early hour, it was evident that the neces sity of some holders forbade the possibility of longer contending for rates impossible to ob tain, a concession of %c. on previous ask ing prices brought forward a fair attendance of buyers, and about 800 bales changed hands on a basis of 9% to 10%c. for Middlings to Good Middlings; Wednesday, the transaction? of the previous day gave precedent for a very general yielding on the part of holders, with a moder ate, but, by no means, general demand—soo bales changed hands, fully establishing the de cline of the previous day; Thursday, buyers demanded still lower prices, and in some cases obtained Good Middling at 10%c. —300 bales sold; Friday, very little was done, say 200 bales, at irregular prices; on Saturday, the-market still tending downward, buyers manifested great indifference; about 500'bales sold on a oasis of the following figures : QUOTATIONS. Low Middling nominal. Middling 9% to 9 % Strict Middling 10 to 10% Good Middling _.10% to 10*4 Middling Fair to Fair, nominal and scarce. The principal sales of the week have been for account of local speculators, as a general rule planters are refusing to sell below 10c.; they can find no satisfactory employment for their money, and the experience of the past few years, has taught them, that prices imme diately after the beginning of the new year, and still later in the spring, have been higher than the two last months in the year. Notwithstand ing this reluctance to sell, they are deliv ering their crops freely, influenced, no doubt, in many instances, by the apprehension of dan ger from tire on the plantations; of which there has been so many instances the present season. Receipts for the week are large, being 6,755 bales, an excess of 520 bales over the cor responding week of last year, and reducing the total excess of last year to 887 bales. We are informed that the accumulation of cotton, at the Stations on the Mobile and Girard Rail Road, awaiting shipment to this place, is very great; the motive power of that Road having been seriously diminished some time since, from accident, by which two of their engines were disabled for the time. Shipments for the week have been 2,909 bales, of which 391 bales have gone to Montgomery, and 573 bales to Apalachicola. The Musco gee Rail Road continues to take off promptly, all the cotton offered. Shipments are very much retarded by the difficulty of delivering at one or two of the principal warehouses; in some instances, invoices have been delayed three and four weeks; this is a very serious draw back to the present execution of orders—we are promised with increased effort to have no farther complaint after the present week. Stock on Hand is 30,946 bales, and beyond the capacity of our warehouses, unless more equally distributed. It begins seriously to accumu late in the streets and unsheltered lots; of the stock, it is supposed about ]/ 2 to % is on plan ters account. COTTON STATEMENT. 1859. 1858. 1857.

Wolfe’s Genuine Madeira Wine. Wolfe’s Genuine Sherry Wine. I am now supplying the trade with pmcCognac Brandy. in bottles. l'ith for midioal aud private use. The immense- success that has crowned utjr efforts toplace a pure Gin within the reach of all, under the name of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, and to jlrive out of the market the pernicious com pounds sold as Gin throughout country, led many leading druggists, apothecaries and medical I men, tor some years past, to solicit me to pursue the same course in regard to the article of Brandy. I should hare complied with these requests from all quarters long ago, but was deterred from it by the fact, that owing to tlie exhorbitant prices of Brandy in France, consequent upon the shortness of the grape cfop for some years, there wag no chance of my being aids to inport the choicest Brandy, bottle it and sell it at moderate prices. Fortunately for me, tliegrnpecrop for the last and previous year (anil the prospect for this) was abundant, and prices of Brandy have fulleii to the standard of ten years ngu. The duty on Brandy is also seventy per cent lower, aud I have now made arrangements with four Brandy exporters in France, 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 Brandy. 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 has been a matter of universal complaint, that a bottle of pure, unmixed French Brandy, was very difficult to obtain, and the purchaser, nine times in ten, was deceived with a vile manufactured imitation. Os all descriptions of ardent spirits, Brandy, from its high price, has been the one article that mixers and sellers have turned their attention to, and millions of gallons of the so-called French Brandy have been scattered annually through the laud, and have been the primary cause of murders, sui cides, cruelties and crimes, and have sent thou sands to an early grave, self-destroyers, from de. liriutn tremens, mauia-a-potu and horrors, names unknown, until unprincipled men began to make maddening 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,” the water of life. But this applies to it only when pure and unadulterated. Manufactured with the fearful ingredients that make agood imitation, it death drink to innocent tens of thou sands of our race. To remedy a fearful evil, I have commenced importing Brandy, bottling it, and selling 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 sell it lor medical purposes.

Attention le invited to tlu- following statement aud the a- ruuipun, mg letters ot teeotii me Dilation and testimonial* of these celel-iated Watches. A gold medal was awarded the Cempaoy by the Massachusetts Mechanical Association, 1856. A gold medal was also awarded them by the American Institute at New York, in 1857. The Company also received the first premium— a gold me til—from the Franklin Institute. Phila delphia, in 1858. These watches have now been in the market for nearly ton yearp. during which time they have been tested as to accuracy, durability and relia bility, in every conceivable manner, and have proved themselves to be the most satisfactory time-pieces ever offered to the public. This result bus been loought about by a strict applicatiou of mechanical science to the construc tion of the Watch from its very iueeptiou, render ing it, when finished, mathematically correct in all its proportions , and. necessarily, as perfect a time ki epei as it is possible to make. The Company have tested their Watches, in many instances, by actual duily 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 gentle mon who have curried their Watches with them in their daily avocations, and are, therefore, reliable indications of wliat may be expected from the American Watch when in ordinary active use: Letter from Paul Morphy, the celebrated Chess Player. New York, October 15tli, 1859. Mr. R. E. Robbins, Treas. Am. Watch Cos.: Dear Sir: —The American watch, No. 9210,pre sented me by the New York Chess Club, has proved to be a most reliable and accui ate time keeper—almost unnecessarily so for ordinary pur poses. It is now nearly five months since it came into my possession, and during that period its variation from standard time has been but a trifle more than halt a minute. The following is a record of its performance. It was set Juno 3d, correctly: June 15, fast 4 sec.

I am, with respect, yours truly. PAUL MORPHY. Boston, Sept. 27th, 1859. Mr. R. E. Robbins, Treas. Am. Watch Cos.: Dear Sir :—lt gives me great pleasure to com ply with your request for a report of the perform ance of the Americau watch which I purchased of you Dec. 2d, 1858. It waß set on that day, and its variation from true time to the 19th of Febru ary, 1859, when 1 let it run down, was ten seconds fast. From that time to the present, it has run with nearly perfect steadiness, having, during the eight months, varied not more than two seconds and this with uncommonly rough usage I can commend your manufacture in the highest terms. Yours truly, JAMES H. CLAPP. Firm of Clapp, Fuller 4 Brown, Bankers, Boston. The following is from Mr. Porter, the well known Marine Chronometer and Watchmaker: Boston, Sept. 2Sth, 1859. Mr. R. E. Robbins, Treas. Am. Watch Cos.: Dear Sir :—I have sold during the last year a considerable number of watches of the Waltham manufacture, and am happy to say that all ol them, without exception, have fulfilled m; guar anty, and have given satisfaction to the purcha sers. GEORGE E. PORTER. Willton Bluff, S. C., Oct. 20,1859. R. E. Robbins, Esq. : Dear Sir:—The three watches of your manu facture which I purchased to be used on my plan tation, have proved to bo the most correct time keepers I have ever known. I gave my head servant, my head carpenter, and my head engi neer, each, one of them; and since they have been in their respective possession, everything on the plantation has moved like clock-work, in consequence of the extreme accuracy and regu larity with which these watches perform. Truly yours, LEWIS MORRIS. Boston, Aug. 20th, 1869. R. E Robbins, Trcas. Am. Watch Cos.: Dear Sir :—Tho “ Waltham,” which I purchased some six months since, has given entire satisfac tion. Its time has been fully equal to that of a “ Frodsham,” which I owned more than a year. Truly yours, ALBERT METCALF, 65 Franklin st. Book Boom, 200 Mulberry street, New York, Oct. sth, 1869. R. E. Robbins, Tress. Am. Watch Cos.: Dear Fir: —I take great pleasure in being able to certify that for the last six months I have car ried a watch from the manufactory of the Ameri can Watch Company, and that it has given per fect satisfaction as a time-keeper. Judging from tho one I have, I do not hesitate to predict that the day is not far distant when watches made in the United States will supercede all others. JAMES FLOY, D. D. Boston, Aug. 9th, 1859. R. E. Robbins, Trcas. Am. Watch Cos.: Dear Sir:—l take pleasure in stating that the American watch I have of your manufacture, performs to my entire satisfaction, running regu larly at the rate of thirty seconds fast per month. Capt. GORHAM 11. BASSETT. R. E. Robbins, Treas. Am. Watch Cos.: Dear Sir , —The watch I bought of you—one of your adjustod Chro. Bal. movements —runs to my entire satisfaction. For the past three months it has not varied more than one minute, and is now running at that rate. It has seen the hardest service in every way in point of locomotion. Yours truly, C. C. SHEAFE. New Haven, Conn., Sept. 27th. R. K.Robbins, Esq.: Dear Sir :—Yours of the 23d was duly received. In reply I would say, that the American watch No. 6939, has proved itself one of the best watches for r “ilway purposes. The American watch, in my opinion, is far bet ter than any watch I have used for the last four teen years on railroads. I remain, respectfully yours, G. A. FULLER, Conductor New Haven, Hartford and Springfield R. R. R. E. Robbins, Treas. Am. Watch Cos : Dear Sir:—Tho American watch that I pur chased of you about a year since, runs with great exactness ; its variations being so slight that I have not found it necessary to set it for several months. Yours truly, WM. B. SPEAR. 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 genuineness, bearing the number of the Watch, and signed by our Treasurer, R. E. ROBB!NS, or by our predecessors, APPLETON, TRACY A CO. ‘! 49*As these Watches are for sale by Jowelers generally throughout the Union, we do not so licit orders for single Watches.
