FOR GOVERNOR, HON. HERS CH EL V. JOHNSON. Os Baldwin County . Off-SEE FIRST AND FOURTH PAGES. Drowned. We regret to learn that a young lad about 11 or 12 years of age by the name of George Sib ley, the youngest son of the late Amory Sibley, was drowned yesterday afternoon in Sa vannah River. From what we can learn, in company with a youth of about his own age, he attempted to cross the river in a canoe, which ran on a stump, and young Sibley was thrown overboard and drowned. His body was in the water about three quarters of an hour before it was recovered, and notwithstanding every means was used to restore him, they proved in effectual. This should be another warning to parents to keep their children away from the river. Death of Mrs. H. R. Jackson. We regret to learn, by a letter received in this city from Savannah, dated 16th inst., that this estimable lady died very suddenly, in that city on the night of the 15th inst. She was per fectly well alter tea on the above evening, when she was taken with a cramp in the stomach, and died in five hours after she was attacked. Ice! We are requested to state, that the supply of Ice gave out on Saturday morning last, in con sequence of the order given by the Ice Company in this city, not being filled in Charleston. The necessary supply came to hand in the afternoon. We are further requested to state, that in con sequence ot the Company being disappointed in the receipt of a cargo of ice, which they had purchased in Savannah, they will be compelled to depend on Chaileston for a future supply, but that their arrangements are such with that city, that they will have a bountiful supply for the country and city for the reminder of the season. We sincerely hope they will not be disappointed? for ice has become an indispensable article with our citizens. Fancy Masquerade Ball. We are requested to state that a grand Mas querade Fancy Ball will be given at Madison Springs between the 15th and 20th of August. From the way friend Watkins gets up things atjhis fashionable watering place, we have no doubt this ball will be one of them. Meriwether County. A friend, residing in the above county, under date of 14th inst., sends us the following : “ The public mind, in our county, is very tranquil at this time, on political matters. There is nota doubt, however, to be entertianed for a moment but that Mr. Johnson’s nomination is highly acceptable with all our friends. Meri wether Co. will give him a respectable majority. We have no candidates, as yet, for the Legisla ture. It is supposed the retail traffic question in ardent spirits, is somewhat in the way of some, and causes something like a tender-footedness. In our county, the railroad spirit is gaining ground. $40,000 are already subscribed for the purpose of building a railroad from Greenville to Giantville. At this time, the prospects are in deed flattering for the completion of the enter prise. Again, our crops of corn are much impro ving, since the commencement of the recent showers. I think our county will make a sup port. The cotton plant is small but abounds with squares. At this time, it is growing too fast, and has recently become too full of sap. There is no certain calculation, as yet, to be made, with reference to the final result of the cotton crop.” Weather and Crops. The Ouachita (Ark.) Herald of the 7th inst says : The weather for the last few woeks has been rather dry. The Tains have been extremely par tial. In some localities they have had fine sea sons whilst in others the drought has been so severe as to injure the corn crop materially. The Yazoo City Whig es the Bth inst. says : On last Friday afternoon a heavy shower vis ited us, to oui great delight, and which has con tinued daily up to the time of the writing of this article. These showers will be productive of great benefit to our planters, and go a great way in restoring- crops which were almost destroyed by the drought. The Columbus (Miss.) Argus of the 7th says : Showers of rain have fallen nearly every day for a week past, and the planter now cries, “hold,enough!” Crops are improving amazingly. Corn looks rather dwarthy, but it is presumed that a sufficiency will be gathered in this region. ► The Florence. (Ala.) Gazette, of the 2d inst. says : This week we announce having been present ed with a half grown cotton bole, raised on the plantation of Mr. Wm. Coffee, on the rivrr be low Florence. The Louisville Journal, of the 4th inst. says : From the 18th of May until yesterday we have experienced a continual drought, the ther mometer ranging most of the time from 90 to 99 degrees. A very heavy shower fell last evening, and appearances then indicated more rain. It will yet largely benefit the crops, though the in jury which the tobacco plant has sustained can not be retrieved. The St. Francisville (La.) Chronicle of the 9th inst. says : Since our last issue we have had rain daily. It came too late, however, to benefit the corn crop much. It will be of immense advantage to the cane crop. .T he cotton is doing remarkably well. If the rain should stop now fine crops will be made, but we are fearful, from present indications that we will have too much. The Capitolian (La.) Vis-a-Vis, of the 13th inst. says : We have had an abundance of rain for the last three weeks ; it, however, has been much wanted, and its effect is shown in the beautiful appearance of our crops. We have never seen the cane look finer or more promising than at the present moment. The Opelousas (La.) Whig of the 9th inst. says : For several days we have had a superabund ance of rain. The cotton crops must be injured materially by it, as it will cause the forms to fall off and leave the pl< nt in. a condition to be de stroyed by rust when the warm sun comes out on it. The young cane will produce finely and in great abundance. Cane is growing very fast and in great abundance. The health of the countiy is very good. The roads are rapidly becoming impassable. The Bowling Green (Ky.) Standard, of the Ist inst. says : The crops in this section are suffering very much from the dry season. The oats are hardly worth harvesting. The tobacco crop-will not exceed one-half of that raised last year. The Gallatin (Tenn.) Tenth Legion of the 2d says : The rains last week in our county being only in sections, we still stand in need of water water —the crops generally, however, in this vicinity look well. The potato croe, unless we have rain in a few days, will be short. The Thibodaux (La.) Minerva of the 9th says; j It has scarcely ceased raining since our last issue was put to press, and from present appear ances we know not when we shall be able to announce to our readers that the weather, to use a commercial phrase, is “ middling fair.” Reception of the President at New York. 1 resident Pierce met with a warm reception on his recent visit to New York. He was wel comed by Mayor Westervelt, on behalf of the authorities of that city, in a neat and appropri a‘e address, to which the President responded as follows: THE president’s SPEECH AT CASTLE GARDEN. I thank you for the kind and patriotic ex pressions with which you have received me,. For the first time I address, within their own borders, the citizens of the Empire City, now, beyond all controversy, the commercial metrop olis of our blessed Union. The rapidity, sir, with which New York has arisen to so command ing a position as one of the most important cities upon the globe has no parallel in history. Already the enterprise of your meichants, the genius of your ship builders, the daring spirit of your vast trading marine, are beginning to make you first in the markets of the world. Here, my countrymen—here in New York— will the ledger of commerce keep the accounts of the nations of the earth. Near the spot on which we stand there are striking points which mark the amazing rapidity ot your growth as a city. On the opposite side of'Bowling Green, if lam not mistaken, stands one of the compara tively few edifices erected prior to 1770. It is, I believe, the only one remaining originally built of German brick. It is a revered relic of a past age. How surprised, possibly, even the young men of the present day would be, if they were fully to realize that six years after its erection the waters of the North river flowed almost to its foundations ; and that, far north of where three great parallel streets now teem with ac tivity and enterprise, was the sandy landing of boats upon that then free and uncircurnscribed river. How difficult it is, at this period, to real ise that the limits of the city at that date exten ded not beyond Murray street, and that there were even within that boundary many vacant lots, and that the population hardly exceeded twenty thousand. Shall we speak of the future ! How can we, when we revert to the calculations of really wise men of the past, who, if I atn not misin formed, built the north wall of the City Hall of brick, because, as it was to be presented alone to the unsettled district, the exterior aspect on that side was of slight consequence. How far is j it at this moment south of the centre of popula ! tion, wealth and enterprise? In 1826, your city hardly exceeded 140,000, now you number more than half a million of souls. In that year, I re member to have heard my father, on his return from New York, after his first visit here, subse quent to the close of the revolution, express his amazement at the growth and change of the ci -1 ty. Still,at that time,Brooklyn,which now num bers more than one hundred thousand souls, was comparatively a village, and riding on horseback with old Gen. Moreton, he found standing a portion of the building on Brooklyn Heights, on which he had run up the American ensign upon the evacuation of the city in 1783. From the first date I have named, 1770, to this hour,, the history of the city has been the history of patri otic devotion to popular rights and popular liber ty. That, for a time during the levolutionary struggle, another ensign and ours floated here is no cause of mortificati on; # it was the fortune of war, and in our weak and em barrassed condition, unavoid able. But the sun of the 25th November, 1783 rose here for the last time upon the rule of a foreign power, and the anniversary of that day is remembered by your “sons of liberty” with the same patriotic feeling that the great nation al anniversary of July 4th is regarded by the people of our common country. How are you, men of New York, to show your gratitude for the past? How are you to make the most of the present? How are you to secure all the noble promise of your future. You will keep high your standard of intelli gence and morals, because all apparent advance ment will prove fallacious, and weakness will be substituted for strength whenever, as a peo ple, we cease with reverence and humble de pendence to look to the source of all power and all wisdom. You will educate your children in the belief and conviction that you have neither power nor perseverance, nor security nor liberty, except as you constitute one of the members of this vast and now universally respected confede racy. You will foster every where the living action, efficient sentiment, that under the Provi dence of God these great blessings may only be enjoyed under the present constitution. You remember yourselves and remind others that wise men framed that constitution. Men who knew what independence cost, because in their own suffering and in the privations and trials of their families and friends they had paid a part of that expense. The great problem of the forma tion of the Union called not only for all the wis dom but for al' the patriotic conception of the wisest body of men the world had ever yet seen in council. If there are those at the present day who. having never made for their country the sacrifice you have, of ease, a dollar of income, or one moment of personal danger, would break i up the foundation on which we nave so prosper ously and securely stood ; the basis of our happi ; ness at home and our respect abroad—the only sure pledge of all that we expect for those who are to come after us, it is to be hoped that they are few in number, and that their sphere of in j fluence limited. If there are provisions in the constitution of your country not consistent with your views of ! principle or expediency, remember that in the nature of things that instrument could only have had its origin in compromise; and remem ber too, that you will be faithless to honor and common honesty if you consent to enjoy the privileges it confers, and seek to avoid, if any, the burdens it imposes. It cannot be accepted in parts; it is a whole or nothing, and as a whole, with all the rights it secures, and the duties it requires, it is to besacredly maintained. I accept these honors as your servant with a thankful heart, but I bear with me, at the same time, a proud consciousness that by your free and unsought choice I am also your representa tive, charged with the care of your interests and your honor. I hope to be encouraged and strengthened in all my efforts to promote the one, and preserve unsullied the other, by such countenance and support on your part as a fear less and faithful exercise of the functions com mitted to me may merit. Mr. Mayor :—This Empire City, and this Empire State, are the living exemplifications of the talismanic word adopted as your motto. Has it never occurred to you, sir, that the hand which inscribed “ Excelsior” upon yonr coat of arms, must have been guided by a prophet’s vision ? This spectacle teaches all of us a valuable and significant lesson. May God, in his wisdom, make you sensible of the blessings conferred upon you ; and during my term of office, may He strengthen me in my sincere and anxious purpose to aid you in all your honorable and patriotic enterprizes. For who can estimate the events of the future ? Who shall say to your great characteristic, and to the spirit of our whole county, “ thus far shalt thou go and no farther ?” As you advance in your majestic career, new duties and new responsibilities are imposed, and as your conquering example mani fests itself on allhands, new conceptions of still further triumphs will arouse and stimulate your exertions. The Old World caught the inspira tion from the New. Nations closed to civilza tion for hundreds of years, arouse from the sleep of ages, and stretch out their hands to the in quiring spirit which is constantly gathering in strength for new victories over time and space on these shores. Who will set limits to your just ambition when the Atlantic is bridged with steamers to the shores of Europe aud united to the Pacific by the great thoroughfare that will eventually bind these States together «<. «,ith hooks of steel ? And, sir, with all these ad vdan tages—with all these privileges—with all these benefits of the present, and these anticipations of the future—and let me say with all the in vocations of the past—how can we fail to wel come those who come to us from the gray old nations of Europe ? Let them come ! There is room enough for all—room in the hearts and in the homes of the American people ; and there is work and food enough for all. The moment they enter into the brotherhood of American freemen they cease to be citizens of other coun tries, and they bear their share of the burdens and enjoy their share of the blessings common to all in this happy union. It is this great truth that invokes us against all schismatic organ izations not strictly Ameri can, and that destroys the claim that ours is a nation governed by men of one race alone. No single race of men can boast that to them alone is humanity indebted for such a country as this. It is the fusion of all nations into one that has given to us the attitude we now occupy, and that has crowned our enterprises with success. Your own experience is the proof of this. All races have contributed to the population t.hat now crowds your ships, builds your cities, sits in your councils and educates your cildren. The hardy sons of New England, and the descend ants of your own pioneers mingle with the tide that flows in from other nations until all characterics disappear before the progressive and courageous spirit that animates the citizens of our own country and protects our free institu tions. And now, my fellow countrymen, once more I thank you for this brilliant and extraor* dinary reception, a tribute which you pay to the government of your choice and affection, and to our heaven favored Union, in the person of your representative in the Presidential chair. The President concluded amidst the enthusi astic applause of the immense crowd assembled in the Garden. There were then loud calls for Jefferson Da vis, who came forward, and in a few words thanked them for the compliment, but would not detain them from forming in the procession, and proceeding to the inauguration of the Crys tal Palace. The President was then conducted from the stage to the Battery, and was followed by the vast assemblage in the body and gallery of the house. The crush was immense, and only for the admirable arrangement of Mr. Matsell, the Chief of Police, and the discipline of the officers and men under him, the different avenues of egress would not have been sufficient to have accommodated the eager throng. All passed off, however, quietly, and many of them proceeded to witness the review of the troops, whilst the more wary ensconced themselves in the car riages kindly provided by the Common Council to convey those who were in possession of “ lit tle blue tickets” in the procession to the Crystal Palace. If subscribers to journals, like church members, in “stopping their paper,” were required to pro duce an editorial certificate before they could subscribe for another, there would be some curi ous developments—as for example: “We certi fy that A. B. stopped his paper, because the edi tor refused to allow him six columns for a per sonal vindication which concerned nobody but himself. We certify that C. D. refuses the pa per because the editor did not publish the obit uary notice of a relative, which he did not get, but which he ought to have detected in some exchange paper. We certify that E. F. wishes to transfer his patronage to another paper, hav ing taken this paper six years without paying a cent, he felt himself insulted by having a bill sent to him byway of a reminder, postage un paid. We certify that B. 8., in his own opin ion, is a poet of the first water; but the editor unfortunately differs from him in his opinion, i s regarded by him as wholly unqualified for his office.” The Fishery Question. —Commodore Shu brick, of the U. S. Navy, who has lately been ap pointed by the President to the command of the squadron designed as a protection to the Ameri can fishermen, passed through Baltimore on Fri day morning on his way from Washington, to join his flag ship at New York. He is accom panied by John S. Cunngham, Esq., of the Navy Department, who will act as secretary and as sistant, in conducting the negotiatings that may become necessary during their short visit to the scene of difficulty. We learn that the whole question is likely to be settled without any fur ther unpleasantness, through the skilful agency of the State and Navy Departments. Mr. Buchanan Going to England. —The Philadelphia News says it learns from private sources, but upon undoubted authority, that the differences extensively referred to by the press as existing between the administration and Mr. Buchanan, have been arranged, and that there will therefore be no declination on his part. The misunderstanding which did really exist was upon questions of exoediency, and these having been settled it is believed, according to the views of Mr. 8., he will leave for Europe in the course of a few weeks at most. Doctors. —We learn from the Medical Ex aminer that the medical graduates in the Uni ted States thus far have numberd nine hun red and fifty for the year 1853. This iucludes the graduates of sixteen medical institutions. Dividends. —Since we wrote our last article on Dividends, we have had the good fortune to encounter another Dividend day , for our especial anil exclusive benefit. Saturday last was. indeed, a White day in our calendar. The Oyster Bank, instead of snapping at us, has allowed us to snap at it—nay, it has actuallv declared a dividend in our favor—and we gratefully acknowledge a fine dish of oysters, from the plantation of the great Oyster-Measter, on Suilivan’s Island ; and not having the fear of cholera before our eyes, we made a luscious feast of it. But our good fortune ended not here. “The Bank, which re poses so quietly on the bank of the Savannah” —the Hamburg, not the Humbug Bank, has also declared a dividend in our favor, and we grate fully acknowledge its kindness, in the shape of a “panoply,” “of the latest style,” for our caput , from the Hat and Cap Repository of Steele, the Genin of Charleston. Not only have Banks , financial and moluscar , thus yielded us their fruits; but the Fig-Tree and the Grape-Vine have also declared dividends in our favor—and we acknowledge from a liberal hand, a present of mammoth figs—lemon and black—and several bunches or clusters of delicious grapes. We can also boast of other favors from a private bank in Broad street, in the shape of Razors, Razor Strop, and Pen-Knife, all of the first class, and the high est excellence and finish—enough, almost, to to make us bankrupt in the expression , although not in the feeling of gratitude.— Charleston Cour ier, 18th inst. Arrangements for Corn.— We have been requested to call a meeting of the citizens of this county, to convene at the Court House in this place on the first Tuesday in August, for the purpose of taking some steps to wards furnishing the county with Corn for an other year, and it is hoped that there will be a large turn out, and from every section of the county, so that it may be known what the prospects of each section are, and how much may be necessary to supply the demands of the county. The plan proposed is to raise a general fund with which to purchase corn, and each one who is able taking and paying for same at cost prices, as much as he may necessarily need, those who are unable to buy being furnished gratis. We most heartily coucur in so praiseworthy a proposition, and commend it to the considera tion of all our county reader. An unusual drought has blighted the prospects of the best and most considerate farmers, and while ot those who will most likely fail in their usual supply of corn, many or the most of them may be per fectly able to supply themselves by individual and personal effort, yet there are others who are not so fortunately situated, who could buy in their own market, but could not in a foreign one, and others still to whom gratuity is due. It is therefore wise and liberal, and just and generous, that all should unite, and bring within our coun ty a depot for furnishing bread to the people, a market from whence we can all supply ourselves with this necessity of lite.— Sandersville Geor gian, 12 th inst. Rain ! Rain ! !—-Since our last issue, we have had an abundance of rain. The rain commenced on Sunday last, and at present—Monday even ing—is falling in abundance, and from present appearances, we will have a long wet spell. On Sunday evening last, the lightning was very severe—striking no less than six or seven trees in and about town. After a drought that threatened almost the enfire annihilation of crops, we think our farm ers may congratulate themselves on the pros pect of half a crop, where but recently, serious apprehensions were entertained of almost a to tal failui e. Memphis (Ala.) Tribune , Uoth inst. We have had rain again this week, and crops w'T- \,„ ton ,re materially. We think the prospect i, „ ow , ilr e , or „„ avM . age cop of cotton and nearly „„ „ „ ot corn, in South-western Georgia “ /f/U„, (Ga.) Patriot, 15th inst. Albany Foreign News by the Arabia. England. —ln the House of Lords, Lord Brougham asked the Secretary, for the Colonies, if he was aware of a proclamation which had been issued by Governor Roberts of Liberia, stating that a contract had been made by Messrs. Hythe and Hodges, of London, for supplying free negroes to some of the British Colonies, and warning persons interested, of the danger that negroes would be kidnapped for the purpose. — Lord Brougham said he had seen this proclama tion in an American paper, and he believed this contract was only the slave trade in another shape. The Duke of New Castle replied that he had not seen the proclamation, but was conver sant with the facts, and was aware that Hythe and Hodges had agreed to introduce free negroes into several of the Colonies, Guiana, in particu lar. He admitted that in most hands such a business would be very like the slave trade, but in the hands of such very respectable persons as Hythe and Hodges, it was quite another thing. Earl Gray explained the circumstances under which the contract was made. He was quite satisfied that the business was safe in their hands. The subject then dropped. On the 6th inst., in the Commons, Mr. Lay ard stated that it was reported the Russians had blockaded the entrance of the River sinking boats loaded with stones, and that 370 merchant vessels were thereby prevented from leaving the river. He wished to ask the Gov ernment if ouch was the fact? Lord John Bus sell replied that the Government had no such information, but that one of the British Consuls had sent an account, reporting that the mouth of the Danube was obstructed by natural causes. The House went into committee on the bill re ducing the duty on newspapers. The Duke of Newcastle has brought the af fairs of Jamaica before the House of Lords in a masterly and comprehensive speech. It appears from this that Sir C. Grey is recalled—that the late Governor of Guiana, Mr. H. Berkley, is to succeed him with a salary of five thousand pounds a year—that the British Government is prepar ed to pay off the half million of debt owing to Jamaica, by raising money at a lower rate of interest—that some changes are to be introduced into the legislative council—and that a sinking fund is to be formed, by which the debt will be altogether canceled a few years. Ireland. —Mr. Van Buren anti sbn, accompa nied by Mr. --Campbell, of U. C., visited the Dublin Exhibition, on the 28th ultimo, and were conducted through the building by Profes sors Harrison, Barker, and other members of the committee. The Limerick Chronicle slates that Richard Russell and Wm. J. Shaw have contracted at Glasgow for a new screw-steamer, of 200 horse power. This ship is intended to ply between London and Foynes in winter, and Foynes and New York in summer. France. —M. Persigny, the minister of the Interior, summoned the proprietors and editors of the Paris journals lately, and stated that the government intended to relax rather than in crease the restrictions of the press. Admiral Larusse has been superseded in the command of the Mediterranean fleet by Vice Admiral Hamelin. It is said that Larusse is thus degraded for having been 24 hours later than the British Admiral in bringing up his ships to the Bay of Besika. It is stated that the French War Office has agreed to furnish 60,000 muskets to the Turkish Government, and that orders have been sent to have them despatched forthwith to Constantino ple. Austria. —From Vienna. June 28, it was stated that on the 17th, M. de Balabine, the last member of the Russian Legation, took his de parture. Before leaving, he caused all the re cords of the Embassy to be put on board the steamer that was to convey him to Odessa. By a dispatch from Trieste, June 29, received at London July Ist, announcing the arrival of the Lloyd steamer from Constantinople, with news to the 20th, M. Balabine’s leaving is confirmed. Austria and Prussia were considered as remain ing neutral. Russia and Turkey. —The London Times of the 2d inst., had received positive information from St. Petersburg, by the packet which left that capital for Stettin, on the evening of the 25th of June, that on that day, on the return of the last courier from Constantinople, the Em peror of Russia despatched immediate orders to his troops (o cross the Pruth. It was expected that this determination would forthwith be an nounced by the Russian nation and to foreign states by a manifesto, in which the Emperor would reiterate his strange declaration, that this aggression is not an act of war, and that he is ready to stop the march of his troops whenever the Turkish Government signifies its intention to comply with his demands. It would take six or seven days for orders to reach the Russian army, consequently it is cal culated that it must be July Ist, at earliest, be fore any advance can take place. The reply of the Divan to the note of Count Nesselrode, al though rejecting the ultimatum- —is said to be dignified and moderate, and it expresses a desire to arrange matters, if possible, in a pacific man ner and without dishonor to either Power; aud further, the Sultan is still willing to send an Ambassador to St. Petersburg to enter upon negotiations. The Austrian Ambassador sug gested the Sultan’s brother-in-law as the Am bassador at St. Petersburg. To this course the Porte would have no objection, provided the Russians engage to refrain from entering the principalities. Telegraphic despatches, said to have been transmitted to the French Government, which indicate that the Porte has decided not to engage in a contest immediately on the invasion of the Danubian principalities. The Porte will con fine itself to protesting, and declaring all nego tiation impossible during the occupation, and will rely on its allies to conduct the affair with due regard to the moderation it shows in placing its interests in their hands. This solution of the difficulty seems not unlikely, as it would af ford Nicholas an opportunity of at once display ing his firmness, and to back out afterwards. A private letter from Constantinople, dated 16th of June, gives the following interesting par ticulars : “ Omer Pasha will command the army of Shumla; that ofßus chuk will be under the or ders of Mehemet Redschid Pasha. In the two camps there are about 80,000 men under arms, and before long from 30,000 to 40,000 Redits will join this army. “ The Turkish fleet will be in the Black Sea either to-morrow or the day alter. The Amer ean frigate Cumberland, under the command of Commodore stringham, has obtained permission to accompany it. “ The chiefs ol the Patriarchates have made a declaration to Lord Stratford de RedclifFe, recog nizing the clemency and the good administration of the Sublime Porte, and have protested against the aggression of Russia. They have also given a solemn assurance that the persecution of the Protestants will henceforth cease for ever. “Subscriptions have been opened hereto assist the government in case of war, and the lists of subscribers are increasing. Some give their others horses, &c., and all contribute to their utmost.” Letters dated the 20th ult., from the Danubian provinces, speak of preparations for the passage of the Pruth by the Russians. China. —Rumored Recapture of Nankin. —A letter from Hong Kong, May 6th, says the mail steamer has been detained until two p. m., this day, in expectation of the receipt of advices from Shanghai, but she will take her departure with out any further news from the seat of war. The fact is, since the departure of the last mail steam er there has not been a single arrival from Shanghai, which circumstance has perplexed politicians and commercial men. All sorts of rumors are current at Canton, to the effect that the city of Nankin had been recaptured by the rebels, and that they have moved in the direc tion of Pekin. This, however, has not received any authent cation; and for actual facts, the English reader must await the arrival of another mail. London, Friday, July I. — Cotton —The sales for the week have been 3,400 bales, at very steady prices. At Liverpool there has been good business doing, and middling Orleans was quoted 6dJ, being l-16d. dearer.— Baring's Cir cular. English and American Merchants. —The London correspondent of the Sunday Times in stituted the following commparison between the Merchant Princes of the Old World and the New: “Mr. Vanderbilt’s steam yacht, at Southamp ton, has rather astonished John Bull. The idea of SIOO,OOO being expended on a pleasure yacht puzzles honest John, who does not reckon be cause he has not heard of the chances of said vessel being well sold in Europe. Every one £ raises the “ craft,” however, which really must ea splendid affair. Mr. V. is commonly called “ Commodore” Vanderbilt, and here, (where no man assumes a title to where he really has no claim—where a birber is not “ Professor” of soap suds) ninety-nine out of every hundred people believe that “ Commodore” Vanderbilt holds a bona fide rank in the United States Navy equiv alent (from the “ regardless of expense” manner in which he works it to that of Lord High Ad miral of England 1) Our merchant princes beat yours in wealth, (there are five men in Man chester who are worth £15,000.000,) but they hoard, to by landed estates out of which by-and by their heirs, if not themselves, will rise to tbe rank of the nobilitv. I confess that I much prefer the American mode of enjoying life.” Kissing and Tobacco. —Fanny Fern in re ply to an observation by a cotemporary, that “ the women ought to make a pledge not to kiss a man who uses tobacco,” very pertinently and sensibly remarks as follows: “So they had; but the deuce of it is, all the handsomest men use it in some shape ! and kiss ing is a little luxury not to be dispensed with !” As to a female kiss, faugh ! there’s no efferves cence in it; it’s as flat as an unmixed soda pow ■ der! If lam victimized that way, I aways take an early application of soap and water! You will see women practice it sometimes just to keep their hand in—lips I mean—but it’s a miserable substitute ! a sham article ! done half the time to tantalize some of the male audience !

[Correspondence of the Charleston Courier .] Foreign Markets. Liverpool, July I.—We refer to our advices per America, under date 24th ult., at which period our Cotton markot closed quietly with a plentiful offering. Saturday’s business opened with a good demand in expectation that the American accounts thon looked for would excite more activity, and some large purchases were made early in the day. The Arabia came up at 10 30 a. m., making the quickest passage on record, but her advices failed to produce the anticipated effect; nevertheless, 10,000 balos were reported to have changed hands. On Monday the inquiry was general, although not largo, resulting in estimated sales of 7000 bales, without alteration in prices. Continental political advices gave a check to the operations of Tuesday, which were limited to 5000 bales, holders evincing more anxiety to realize. Th e transactions on Wed nesday were increased to 8000 bales by the tempt ing inducements held out to purchasers. Yester day the market assumed a more quiet aspect, and the business was restricted to 6000 bales, th* de mandbeing freely met with large offerings at irre gular pricos for the more ordinary descriptions, and tho turn in favor of buyers on the better classes.— Speculators and exporters have taken a fair quan tity, but do not operate with any spirit. The total sales of the week amount 60,320 bales, of which 710 are to speculators and 6100 to ex porters, and include 45,280 bales of American, of which 6400 are to speculators and 2790 to export ers, leaving 45,510 bales of all kinks to the trade.

The Washington’s advices will be to hand this morning. Our produce markets are sill influenced by the changeable advices in regard to political events; fortunately for all classes, a general impression of a peacoful termination to existing differences is still entertained, and which gives a great support to our Cotton market in particular, at the same time it is equally evident that hoi lers are desirous of lesson ing their interest in the article by the freedom with which they offer their stocks, and their willingness to meet tho demand at fair prices. In the present varying state of affairs, it cannot boa matter of surprise that there should prevail a great diversity of opinion* which actuates each holder according to his interpretation of current circumstances, and which necossarily k con«iderable a irregularity causes. There is no new feature observable in the Man chester Goods market; spinners and manufacturers are firm in their demands, and are not eager to en ter upon long contracts, on account of the difficul ty they experience with their work people. Tho export houses are not doing any business worth reporting; all are apparently waiting the result of Eastern disputes, and feel little confidence or de sire to increase their risks until they are sottled. A report of serious injury from excessive rains to the Wheat crons in Franco, and an active demand for shipments to that quarter, has imparted much firmness to the London Grain trade, and nfluenced spirited inquiry at most of tho leading markets throughout the country. Notwithstanding that a large fleet of Wheat laden.vessols are now due at out ports, we have experienced a spirited inquiry from all classes, and some weighty transactions have been entered into at an advance of 4 a 6d per 70 lbs on Wheat and Is 5d a2s per bbl. on Flour. White Indian Corn is also Is per qr. higher in price, but yellow has not improved to a like extent. At to day’s meeting a large body of operators were in at tendance, and a good demand for all descriptions enabled holders to obtain very full prices. The bu siness, however, was not animated or extensive, as during the preceding days. Havre, June *29, P. M. — Thoro has been a dull market to-day; the sales of Cotton amounted to only 700 bales. Prices are about the same, as money is attainable at low rates, but holders are generally free sellers, while traders are reluctant to operate, our stock being large—say .136,000 bales, against 87,000 bales last year. pipping JntrUigrnrr.

Farrell’s Arabian Linimeaw This celebrated medicine, skilful], composed as it is of the most healing balsams and penetrating oils, can never fail to cure almost eve. ry affliction that could be alleviated by an exter nal remedy. Its superiority over all other Lini ments is proven by the miraculous euros it perforins" and by the great and constantly increasing de! mand. There has been sold within the past vear more than THREE MILLIONS OF BOTTtES and there can be but few persons found who do not bestow upon it the highest praise for the rare virtues it possesses. Nothing, perhaps, since the creation of tho world, has been so successful as an external remedy for all nervous diseases, as this wonderful curative. When applied, it instanta. neously diffuses itself through the whole system soothing the irritated nerves, allaying the most intense pains and creating a most delightful sensa sion. Read the following remarkable cure, which can be attested to by hundreds who were fully ac quainted with the whole circumstance. Chronic Enlargement of the Tonsils.— My daughter, when six months old, was taken with a swelling in the tonsils, which grew larger and lar ger, till when six years old had groat difficulty in swallowing her food. Every night watch was kept, fearing she would suffocate. The best doctors at' tended her but could give no relict. I took her to the most eminent doctors in the East; they said there was no help for her but to outgrow it. With a sad heart I returned home with her, when she became so much worse that the doctors had to be called in again ; thoy decided that the tonsils must bo cut off, as the only means of giving relief. My wife would not consent to this, and she determined to try your Liniment, which gave relief the very first application, and by a continued use she entire ly recovered. She is now ten years old and fleshy and’healthy as could be desired. Your Liniment is also the best in use for sprains, bruises, cuts, burns, headache, etc., and it will remove the most severe pain in a few mutes. It also cured caked udder in my cow in a few days.
