This veteran and well drilled corps, .
1
Capt. l’aul in command, turn
ed out yesterdayafternoon'for drill. We
were astonished to see comparatively so
few muskets out on the occasion. It
cannot be that the military spirit is de
generating in the community.. It would j
be'gratifying to see the full membership
out, when they next enliven the city with
a parado.
Sanford's Opera Troupe.
Avery good audience greeted this tal
ented company of musicians at Concert
Hall last night, as wc learn from those
in attendance. Other engagements pre
cluded the pleasure we anticipated in
hearing them. From what we hear. Con
cert. Ilall is just the place for those to
visit who like to have a hearty and soul
inspiring laugh. Let all pay them a visit
before they close the present short en
gagement.
City Printer, <&c.
We tender our acknowledgements to
the new Board of Aldermen for the honor
conferred in selecting our paper as the
medium for reporting their proceeedings.
We shall endeavor to lay all their official
acts before the people, to the best of our
ability, and with as little delay as pos
sible.
The Board, we are glad to see, have
commenced one good reform; we allude
to the pay of its servants, especially the
Treasurer. It has long been a shame
that the city should appreciate the ser
vices of a competent accountant less than
private individuals. The move is one in
the right direction, and we trust they
will follow up the plan, and thus secure
the best and most competent men to
serve the city.

A Return of Former Days.
Our wharf yesterday presented a very
animated spectacle, and one calculated to
fill the breast of every lover of the city s
prosperity with exultant feelings. Four
steamers, the Wave, Oswichee. River
Bride, and Munuerlyn, were there and
discharging separately their several car
goes. We remember well the days when
it was nothing uncommon to see ten and
twelve boats at the wharf discharging and
taking in their cargoes. Doubtless this
fleet of steamers will afford great relief
to our crowded warehouses. With no
untoward accident this winter, our city
will have an ample supply of means to
ship off her staple, home fabrics and
bread-tuffs •
During the afternoon the steamers Mur.-
nevlyn with GOO bales of cotton. O-wichee
with 300 and the Wave with 400 ba'es of
cotton and other freight, left for Apalach
icola. We are pleased to notice promi
nent amongst the shipments for the cities
below, quite a number of sacks of flour
from our city mills. The River Bride will
leave for the Bay to-day, at 12 m., with a
good cotton and miscellaneous freight.
The river is in fine condition, having
about saveu feet water. .
Theater—Fazio and the Honey Moon
The thrilling tragedy of Fazio, followed
by the comedy of the Honey Moon, con
stituted the bill presented at Miss Logan’s
benefit Friday evening An audience
twice as large as the on.- the evening pre
vious, and considerably larger than any
of the week, wit ne.'-e 1 her admit aide im
personation of Bianc t. At times atten
tion was so rivited as to make the drop of
a pin almost audible; but perhaps the
m ist eloquent acknowledgement of the
eliect with which the character was re.i
dered, is the tact, that several fountains of
tears flow td fret ly in ceramist ration of
the ardent and jealous Italian wife. Mr.
Stetson sustained himself well as Fazio,
though not so Weil quite as he did the
character of Duke Aranza, in the conclud
ing piece.
Saturday night concluded Miss Logan’s
engagement here, and will be her last ap
pearance in this city, iier rendition of
Lucrotiu Borgia out! at occasion, met the
high expectations or her audittry. There
was nothing exaggerated nor overwrought
in her manner, which has marred the
piece as we have -eru it represented on
previous occasions by others Her sup
porter- sustained themselves much better
than they did in their last appearance a
tew w.-eks since. Miss Williams’ song.
“It is better to . ugii than be sighing,”
was brought in with charming effect.
Miss Logan s recitation of “Matrimonial
Squabbles” was very amusing, and elic
ited frequent applause. The recitation
was fau.tlcss, and was alone worth the
price of admission.
The afterpiece, “Ireland as it is,” was
capital y rendered. We were much
pleased, especially with Stetson’s “Dan
O’Carolan,” Morton’s “Ragged Pat” and
Keller’s “Judy O’Frot.” This drama is an
excellent one, and the plot and incidents
ate life like and true to nature. It con
stitutes a faithful transcript of scenes
which occur, doubtless in the “Emerald
Isle” every day.
Elwin Booth who made his first ap
pearance at Temperance Hall last night
in the character of Hamlet, will person
ate lago to-night in Shakespeare’s Trag
edy of Othello. See the bill in full else
where. We will notice the performance
of Monday night, more extendedly to
morrow,
Proceedings of flic New Council.
The old Council met yesterday evening
at 7 o’clock, and after passing a few reso
lutions, adjourned sine die. Ilis Honor,

DAILY SUN.OFFICE,. \
Columbus, Ga., December 13,1559. j
COTTON—The receipts yesterday amounted
to 300 bales, and sales 110 bales, on a basis of
quotations given below. The demand was
; small in consequence of attention bc
| iug directed to forwarding cottons on hand.
REvr- .v or Tin: m veketpor tiie week fxmxu dec. 10.
Our last weekly report of the Cotton market
closing on the 3d inst.. left the trade quiet with
downward tendency, and little disposition’ of
planters to press sales. The market opened
Monday morning with a good attendance of
buyers, the presence of whom gave firmness to
holders—3Bo bales reported as the sales of the
day, at our last quotations; a sale of about 500
bales was made but not reported; Tuesday, the
market was more active and prices very full,
Good Middlings were sought after at the
sales of the day reached about Buo bales; Wed
nesday, holders made an effort to advance i
prices, and as a consequence checked opera
tions—the transactions of the day did not ex
ceed 300 bales; ‘1 hursday, without any change,
the sales tooted 420 bales; Friday, alb bales .
; sold : Saturday is usually a dull day, and sales
reached only life bales at irregular prices, in
S some instances at a decline of y a <‘. \\c renew
; our quotations of last week.
UCuTATION-.
Ordinary and Low Middling SJd to 9JA
Midd1ing5................................... to
Strict to Good Middlings 10 to lo;4
Middling Fair nominal.
During ihe week th£re has been more doing
i in the lower grades of Ordinary and Low Mid
dling Cotton, die stock of which lias continued
to accumulate until the necessities of holders
has forced them to submit to prices much below
; their views. .Several hundred bales of this de
scription of cotton has been sold at Stooge.
The principal sales of the week have been local
speculators option: planters, we again repeat,
sell reluctantly at our quotations, they prefer to
| speculate on'the future rather than accept
| prices below the average'of several past years.
Receipts. —ln consequence of heavy rains in
I the early part of the week the receipts have
! ho. n chocked. Wo have again to refer to the
j inadequate capacity of the Mobile and Girard
; Rail Road to accommodate the accumulations
| of cotton at its different depots, as a material j
} cause of short receipts; they are 4,212. bales for ‘
! the week, being 1,436 bales short of the eorres
j-ponding week last year.
! Shipments have been 3,089-bales, of which
504 bales have gone to Montgomery, and
4n9 to Apalachicola. With a good river and
an ample supply of cars on the Muscogee Rail
Road, the only difficulty that remains in the
way of prompt shipments is in having the cot
ton delivered at one or two of our warehouses.
Invoices have been delayed from week to
j week, without a remedy to the shipper; this !
! proves a serious drawback to the execution of
| orders in a declining market.
Stock is 34,020 bales, which is a gradual in
! crease; the accumulation on the street in- :
: creases with the stock. We arc informed that
• a large proportion of the cotton to be seen on
j the streets has been ordered out for shipment. ;
Foreign.—T) e latest from Liverpool is by the :
Persia to the 26th ult. Sales for tiie week 35.-
000 bales—prices full but little inquiry. Mid- i
tiling Uplands 0% to 6%d. Stock 475,000, of
which 207,000 is American. Manchester favor
able, but demand quiet—-Consols SK% to 6%
for money and account. Money easy and un
changed.

AMERICAN WATCHES,
MADE DY THE
American Watch Company,
AT WALTHAM, MASS.
Attention is invite! to) the following statement
and ilie accompanying letteis us recommendation
am! testimonial* <>f tbeee celebrated Matches.
A gold medal was awarded the Company.by the
Massachusetts Mechanical Association, 1850.
A gold met!*) wan also awarded Un m hy the
American Institute at New York. in lhf.7.
The Company also received ilie first premium—
a gold me I*l—from the Franklin Institute, Phila
delphia, iu 1858.
These watches have now been in the market for
nearly ten years, during which time they have
been tested a.i to accuracy, duralntity and relia
bility, in every Conceivable manner, and have
proved themselves to be the most satisiactory
time-pieces ever offered lot the public.
This result has been bioughl about hy a strict
application of mechanical science to the construc
tion of tho Watch from its vi ry inception, render
ing it, when finished, Mathematically correct in all
its proportions, and. necessarily, as perfect a time
k, epee as it is possible to make.
The Company have tested their Watches, in
many instances, by actual daily noting, and the
result of this test has been that they hare exhibited a
rate equal in regularity to the best Marine Chronom
eter The following certificates are from geutle
nion who have carried their Watches w ith them iu
their daily avocations, and are, theiefoie, reliable
indications of what nicy be expected f, cm the
American Watch when iu ordinary active me:

Mr. K. K. Bobbins, Treas. Am. Watch Cos.:
Dear Slit: — The Ameiijan watched. 9210,pre
sented me hy the New \ork Chess Chi!:, has
proved to be a most reliable and r;ccu ate time
keeper—almost unn( cessaiily so foroiuiuarj pur
poses. It is now neaily five months since it came
into my possession, and during that peiiod its
variation fr. iu standard time has been but a trifle
inoio than halt a minute. The following is a
record of its performance. It wts set June 3d,

statement as you may think proper. 1 am, with
respect, yours truly. PAUL MOKPHY.
Boston, Sept. 27tli, 1859.
Mr. R. E. Robbins, Tress. 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 American watch w hich I purchased
of you Dec. 21, 1858. It was set on that day, and
its variation from true time to the 19tli of Febru
ary, 1859, when 1 let it run down, was ten seconds
fast. Fyom that time to the present, it has run
with nearly perfect steadiness, having, during tho
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 11. CLAPP.

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 yiar a
considerable number of watches of the Waltham
manufacture, and am happy to say that all of
them, without exception, have fulfilled mj guar
anty, and have given satisfaction to the purcha
sers. GEORGE E. PORTER.
Willton Bluff-, S. C., Oct. 20,1859.
R. E. Robbins, I.eq.:
Dear Sir: —The three watches of your manu
facture which Ipurchiisfd to boused on my plan
tation, have proved to he the most correct time
keepers I have over 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 extremo accuracy and regu
larity with which those watches perform.
Truly yours, LEWIS MORRIS.
Boston, Aug. 20th, 1859.
R. E. Robbins, Troas. Am. Watch Cos.:
Dear Sir :—The “ Waltham,” which I purchased
some six months since, has given entire satisfac
tion. Its time lias been fully equal to that of a
“ Frcdsham,” which I owned more than a year.
Truly yours, ALBERT METCALF,
65 Franklin st.
Booh Boom, 200 Mulberry street,
New York, Oct. 6th, 1859. .
R. E. Robbinb, Treas. Am. Watch Cos.:
Dear Sir :—I take great pleasure in being able
to certify that for the laet six moDths 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
the one I have, I do not hesitate to predict that
the day is not far distant when watches made iu
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 1 have of your manufacttm,
performs to my entire satisfaction, running regu
larly at the rate of thirty seconds fast per month.
Capt. GORHAM H. BASSETT.
R. E. Robbins, Treas. Am. Watch Cos.:
Bear Sir, — The watch I bought of you— ods of j
your adjusted Chro. Hal. movements—tuns to my j
entire satisfaction. For the past three months it 1
has not varied more than one minute, and is now j
running at that rate. It has seen the hardest
service in every way in poiut of locomotion.
Yours truly, C. C. SIIEAFE.
New Haven, Conn., Sept. 27th.
R. E. Robbins, Esq.:
Dear Sir: —Yours of the 23d was duly received.
In reply I would say, that the An erican watch !
No. 6939, lias proved itself olio of the best watches
for r “ilway purposes.
The American watch, in my opinion, is far bet
ter than aDy watch I have used for the last four
teen years on railroads. I temain. respectfully
yours, G. A. FULLER,
Conductor New Ilaven, Hartford and
Springfield R. 10
R. E. Robbins, Treas Am. Watch Cos :
Dear Str: —The American watch that I pur
chased of you about a year since, iuus with great
exactness ; its variations being so slight that I
diave not found it necessary to set it for several
ihonths. 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 T a certificate of
genuineness, bearing the number of the Watch,

SOOTHING SYRUP,
For Children Teething,
which greatly facilitates the process of teething,
by softening the gums, reducing all inflammation
—will allay all pain and spasmodic action.and is
Sure to Regulate the Bowels.
” Depend upon it mothers, it will give rest to
yourselves and
Relief and Health to your Infants.
Wt. have put up • and sold this article
for over ten Qj years, and can. say,
in confidence and truth of it, what we
have never been aide il to say of anv other
medicine— NEVEß ‘ HAS IT FAIL
ED, IN A SIJN- nrt GLE instance, to
Effect a CURE, when timely used —
Never did we know an instance of dissatis
faction by any one who used it On the
contrary, all are do- lighted with its ope a
tions, and speak in terms of highest com
mendation of its magi- cal effects and medical
virtues. We speak in this matter “what
we do know,” af- rk ter ten years’ experi
ence, and pledge our reputation for
the fulfilment of hp what we here de
clare. In almostev- r-i ery instance where
the infant is suffering H from pain and exhaus
tion, relief will be found in fifteen or
twenty minutes after LU the Syrup is adminis
tered. _
This valuable prepa- pH ration is the prescrip
tion of one of the most experienced and
skillful Nurses in tj New England,and has
been used with never failing success
“THOUSANDS OF CASES.
It not only relieves the child from pain,
but invigorates the stomach .and bowels,
corrects acidity, and gives tone and energy
to the whole system. 02 It will almost instant
ly relieve
Griping in the $> Bowels, and
WIND K* COLIC,
and overcome convnl- sions, which if not
speedily remedied end in death. We believe
it the best and sur- J est remedy in the
world, in all cases r ”J of Dysentery and
Diarrhoep in Chil- (fa dren, whether it
arises from teething, or from any other
cause. We would say to every mother who
has a child suffering: ~ from any of the fore
goingcompiaints—do- not let your pre
judices, nor the prejudices of oth
ers, Btand between your suffering child
and the relief that wilE be SURE —yes. ab
solutely SURE — to follow the ue of
