THE EXPOSITOR WEEKLY BY JAMES K. FROST. Ssbscriptjoß Price: $2.00 Per Annum, in Advence. Commutations marked thus f ve to be paid for as advertisements. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1872. She notice of Public Sole, in another column. Cotton soles weru brisk during the post week. Ridino “twp ways” for “one fare,” on the Central Railroad, came to a conclusion yesterday. Tub adjourned May Term of the Su perior Court was concluded on Wed nesday last. The F all lerm ot the same commences on Monday next. Wk have in use, in our family, “the steam washer,” or, “woman’s friend,” and have no hesitancy in recommeuding it. It accomplishes all that is claimed for it. Tub Editor of this paper, having been afflicted by sickness and death in his family, begs the indulgence of his subscribers for the scarcity of reading matter in this issue. Preaching. —Dr. E. R. Carswell will preach at the,Methodist church to morrow morning, at 11 o’clock. The Rev. Mr. Ocslky, pastor, will preach at night, Providence permitting. Law Fikm. —Attention is called to the card of Cols. Ashton & Glisson.— Both these gentlemen arc so well and favorably known that anything like a “puff,” from us, would be superflous. Thanks. —Mr. Robert Farmkr, gen erally called “friend Bob”—because die is a general favorite, and well deserves to be—has oar sincere thanks for his recent presentation of a fine, first qual ity pocket knife. Col. John D. Ashton.—We notice from our Savannah exchanges' of last Tuesday, that Col. Ashton was, on the day before, admitted to plead and prac tice in the District and Circuit Courts of the United States. Mors Omnibus Communis. —Within tlie past two weeks more deaths have occurred in this county than we have known before, in the same short period. Mr. J. It. Boyd, an old resident, was buried last Sunday. Two son? of Mr. Robt. Herrington have died; and we learn a third is not expected to live. Walter, eldest son of Dr. It. E. J. Thompson, was buried at this place on Monday last. The Doctor has lost two sons (young men) within a mouth. So nearly allied are we to grief that our sympathy is mingled for all. Last Week’s Cotton Figures. —The Is. Y. Financial and Commercial Chronicle , of the 9th, states that the total receipts for the seven days ending Friday night, were 133,705 bales against 1:10,405 bales last week, 113,148 bales the pre vious week, and 98,291 bales three weeks since, making the total receipts since the first of September, 780,812 bales against 505,195 bales for the same period last year, showing an increase this year of 215,617 bales. The Chronicle's table of visible supply' shows 1,866,407 agaiust 1,781,236 bates last year, exhibiting au increase of cot ton in sight as compared with the same date last year amounting to 85,171 bales. The receipts of cotton at the interior ports for the week were 40,837 against 35,059 bales the same week last year—the shipments were 24952 against 28,272, and the stock was 59,272 against 60,776. The weather was generally rainy and unfavorable. Planters are market ing crops freely, but the unfavorable weather and election excitement bad interferred with picking. The New York market during the week was dull and weak in the face of heavy receipts, unfavorable accouuts from Liverpool, and decreased estimates of European consumption. There was a net decline of seven-sixteenths on spot cotton dur ing the week. If, says a Radical paper, at least four years more of palace cars, cigars, and seaside loitering is due General Grant for his labors and privations during the war, how much is duo the private sol dier whose bodily sufferings just about as much exceeded Grant’s as the pay of the latter exceeded that of the former.

GOUFEDEMTE Millf VII 7 E once more earnestly solicit the atteo IT lion of our people to tliejenterprise fur ! th<s erection of a monument in liopor ol the j Confederate Dead of Georgia and others who were killed or died on Georgia soil. The lime for the distribution is rapidly approaching. It will take place in this city on Hie 4th of December next, Deo Volente. There will positively be m> postponement. All sales will stop"on the 2<Hh of November. The fate of this effort will he decided then. Our people will exhibit their gratitude for the I bloody sacrifices of their brave defenders, ! or exhibit to the world their cold indifler (h'ce. They will exhibit their pride or its loss; their appreciation of those who fell in service, or a disregard of the noblest sacri fice which man can make for bin own land, bis people and their homes. We yet believe tlie spirits of the dead still haunt the land they loved and for which they died. We yet believe that those who live in these haunts of love will tubslantially-. prove their devotion to the dead “Soldiers in Gray." Hundreds, yea thousands upon thousands, will wish to become shareholders In the tribute terfheir fame between now and the 20th of November. We most respect fully request then, to reflect. Those thous ands of names thrown upon us al the last moment may so overwhelm us as to make it impossible to prepare all of their certificates, record their names, mail them and prepare the numbers for the drawing on the 4th of December. Hence much money may lie tie< essarily returned, to the detriment of the cause and their di-appointment in the clianc'fs at the distribution of the prises. Let tnoso, then, who liave the means aid intend to contribute do so at once. If some are not ready and must wait, let their con tributions come as soon as they are able to maks ihem to the Agents in their locality, or to this oflicc. Have no fears of trickery, or fraud, or speculation. Whatever may liave happened in other schemes or sections, we have an or ganized Association, consisting of some of our best citizens. An expose will be made of all that has been and will be done in con nection with this eoteiprise. All will be fair and lionoiable. If all the tickets shall be sold, the amount to be distributed will be in currency, one huudred aud thirty-one thousand dollars; in ieal estate, ninety-nine thousand dollars; in cotton, twenty thousand dollars, making a grand total of two hundred and fifty thou sand dollars. If all the tickets are not sold the amount ieceived(after deducting the portion allotted to the Monument, the commissions of the Agents, arid the sum required to defray the necessary expeoses), will bo distributed among the shareholders. The precedence in this latter case will be given—Ist, to the 1,744 prizes in currency; 2d, to the real estate; 3d, to the cotton. We are pleased to state that expenses have been much diminished by the liberality of a por'iou of the newspapers, and the boundless assistance rendered us free of charge by the Southern Express C> mpar.y of this city. Should any who have made, or may make, voluntary donations to any amount, desire to exchange their special tickets for others which furnish chances in the drawing, we or our Agents, in this or other States, w ill cheerfully comply with their wishes.
