BY CHAS. SWAIN.
Take the Spade of Perseverance,
Dig the field of Progress wide ;
Every rotten root of faction,
Hurry out, and cast aside;
Every stubborn weed of Error;
Every seed that hurts the soil;
Tares, whose very growth is terror —
Dig them out whate’er the toil!
Give the stream of Eduea ion
Broader channel, bolder force;
Hurl the stones of Persecution
Out. whero’er they block its course ;
Seek for strength in self-exertion ;
W ork, and still have faith to wait;
Close the crooked sate to fortune ;
Make the road to honor straight!
Men are agents for the Future!
As they work, so ages win
Either harvest of advancement,
Or the product ol their sin !
Follow out true Cultivation,
Widen Education's plan ;
From the majesty of Nature
Teach the majesty of Man
Take the Spade of Perseverance;
Dig ihe field ot Progress wide;
Every bar to tiue Instruction
Carry out and cast aside!
Feed the Plaut whose Fruit is Wisdom ;
Cleanse from crime the common sod;
So that from the Throne «f Heaven
It may bear the glance of God.

A New Cotton move in England against the
United States.
The British Empire in the East Indies is not
on'y a source of magnificence and profit to Great
Britain—it is a problem and a curiosity to the
rest of the world. It has never been colonized
except by a transient soldiery—never been set
tled except by the bayonet—never been legislat
ed for except to give a greater liberty of plunder
and oppression to the army of British officials.
While a superabundant population have either
starved in England, or emigrated to Australia or
America, millions of fertile acres in Madras and
Bombay have been allowed to repose in primitive
uncultivation. No public roads have been built;
no rivers cleared for navigation ; no resources de
veloped, and no industrial employment provided
for the necessitous and active natives. The
bayonet and the Bible, fortresses, bishoprics, and
Manchester goods, are all that India has received
in return for the uncounted millions her spolia
tion has poured into the British treasury.
The subject, though geographically remote, is
one in which we have a near pecuniary interest.
Some eff rts are now about to be made by the
East India Company, in which the only percep
tible object is to inflict an injury on our Southern
States. It therefore becomes our duty to look
closely into the matter. It appears that the dis
trict of Berar in the presidency of Madras, pro
duces cotton unequalled in any other part of
India, and which is supposed capable, “when
equally well cleaned,” of entering into success
ful competition with that of the Mobile and New
Orleans markets: even with the disadvantage of
a long land carriage on the backs of bullocks, the
exports of Berar to Bombay and Mirapoor amount
to sixty millions of pounds weight each year,
and the quantity obtainable, or capable of being
produced—if there were but any suitable reward
held out for labor—is thought to be unlimited.
At present the cost of the land carriage amounts
to sixty-six per cent upon the prime cost of the
article ; but a noble river, the Godavery, which
might be made navigable for the distance of at
least six hundred miles, at the expense of a few
thousand dollars, runs directly down through the
cotton district; ‘‘and thus,” triumphantly ex
claims the report from which we glean our facts,
“thus the great cotton marts of Oomrawretty
and Chandah would be at once placed in imme
diate communication with the manufacturers of
Lancashire;” and thus—it might have added, as
it assuredly meant —thus we shall render our
commercial prosperity independent of the United
States. Having thus disposed of the industrial
part of the proposition, the report goes on, to its
own great satisfaction, to demonstrate the “mili
tary” strength which a navigable river of this
extent would confer on the Madras presidency;
and it finally appeals to the sympathies which
were evoked by '"Uncle Tom's Cabin ,” to induce
the “British public to assist in striking this fatal
blow agiinst transatlantic slavery.”
“This, then, is the real gist of the article—this
the cause which can even provoke the Satraps of
a tropic empire into a momentary activity. It
is not to benefit India, but to huit America,
that they have been seized with this economical
enthusiasm ! We thank them for their good in
tentions, and fully appreciate the kindness they
w-:uld do us. We happen, however, to have
some little knowledge ot the case, and the very
slightest knowledge is quite sufficient to knock
their air-bui't castles and rabid abolitionism into
the kingdom-come. In the first place, then,
there is no cotton in the East Indies or in the
world that can for a moment be compared to
the American—a reference to the markets of
Liverpool will at once demonstrate the tact. The
Ind an cotton from the Berar district is a very
coarse, short arid discolored fibre. It is now
grown to its utmost extent, and is used in the
manutacture of coarse cotton fabrics by the na
tives. As to the navigation of the river, there
is but one caste in India whose religious convic
tions permit them to work in, upon, or about the
water; and of that caste tbere are not along the
whole course ol the Godavery enough to man
three respectable ferry boats. It is absurd for
Mr John Bull to seek escape from his depen
dency on our Southern States; however mwch
he may in his stubborn heart detest and envy us,
his pocket binds him down to be our very hum
ble, faithful and obedient servant. Manchester
is the political capital of England, and Manches
ter cannot live without American cotton. Our
dominion ot England is not less powerful than
hers over India; she cannot shake us off without
shaking her national-debt into a national bank
ruptcy.
Paris and London Fashions.
In-door Costume. —Robe of fine white cash
mere. —The corsage in the iacket form, open in
front, and with basques. The opening of the
corsage is confined by two bows, one at the waist
and the other a little higher up. The skirt has
three flounces, each edged with a row ot palm
leaves, graduated in size, the largest being on the
lower flounces. The sleeves are of the pagoda
form, and are edged with palm leaves, and the
same bordering extends round the top of the cor

work falling over the hands. The front hair is
arranged bandeaux, raised at each side and ter
minating in long curls, which descend over the
neck and behind the ears. The back hair is
plaited, and the plaits are confined by large pearl
headed pins, with pearl tassels suspended from
the heads.
Walking or Carriage Costume.—Dress of sea
green silk. The skirt has three flounces of grad
uated width. The uppermost flounce is gather
ed in with the fullness of the skirt, and is fitted
to the corsage, thus forming a sort of basque.
The two lower flounces have each a heading,
consisting of a narrow flounce or frill of silk
over which are placed at equal distances, bows!
formed of loops of satin ribbon,of the same col
or as the dress and ranged three and three togeth

with a pattern of and foliage woven with the
silk. The corsage is open down to the waist,
and aceinture of ribbon is fastened in front in a
bow and long flowing ends. The sleeves are
tight at the upper part ol the arm, and loose pa
godas descend a little below the elbow. At the
top of the sleeves there is a frill, forming a sort
of epaulette, and on it is fixed a bow lormed of
six loops. A little above the elbow there is an
other frill, with a bow similar to that on the up
per frill. This lower frill falls over the pagoda,
which is edged by a quilling of satin ribbon. The
chemisette and under sleeves are of worked mus
lin. The sleeves are made in one large puff; the
fullness gathered on the wristband of ntedlevvork.
Prawn bonet of pink glace, trimmed with loops
of ribbon on on® ®ide. Und#r trimming—® |
wreath of «mall pink flowers, passing across the
upper part of the forehead, and at each side of
the face, loops of ribbon with flowing ends.
Gloves of pale yellow kid.
Canezou The material may be cambric mus-
h f ne .J a^ n - li3e corsage is made to fit
closely to the figure, and to fasten at the back.
It is beautifully ornamented in front by two
rows of open eyelet hole work, between which
is a double row of Vandykes, the points meeting
««*> * orm intermediate lozenge formed spaces
which are cut out, and small bows of pink rib
bon are placed at the junction of the points. A
turning over collar, vandyked at the edge, and
covered with rich eyelet hole work. The sleeves
are in easy fullness at the upper part, and below
the elbow ornamented with rows of eyelet hole
work, and points fastened by bows of pink rib
bon. The sleeves are finished at the ends by
deep frills of vandyked needlework.
Theba Mantelet. —This mantelet is of the round
Spanish form, and has received its name of The
ba on honor of the Empress Eugenie, who, it
vyill be recollected, was, prior to her marriage,
Countess of Theba. It is composed of three 1
rows of clear muslin, ornamented with needle
work, and scalloped at the edges. The small
collar at the throat is fastened by a bow of green
ribbon.
Episcopal General Convention.—Four
teenth Day. —The city of Baltimore was fixed
upon as the place for holding the next Triennial
Convention.
Dr Wyatt reported a list of the tiustees of
the Theological Seminary, showing that every
Diocese but Virginia had made nominations.—
Virginia never had any trustees in this institu
tion. Dr. Wyatt also reported, from committee,
a resolution, which was adopted, declaring it in
expedient to act upon the Kohn legacy.
A message was here received from the House
of Bishops, apprising the House that they had
nominated the Rev. Dr. Kipp, of Albany, as
Missionary Bishop to California, and the Rev.
Mr. Scott, of Georgia, Missionary Bishop to
Oregon and Washington.
Alter a long debate on the proposed alteration
in the canon allowing Bishops to change the
forms of the prayer book, at convenience, the
amendment and canon were both rejected.
The canon relating to a minister renouncing
communion with the church, was amended so as
to allow such minister to be taken back within
five years, on application, by advice of two
thirds of the House of Bishops.
Fifteenth Day —Rev. Dr. Kip was elected Mis
sionary Bishop of California.
Mr. Evans, of Md., made a report recommen
ding an amendment to the constitution, article
VI, that the subject of a uniform mode of trying
Bishops be left to the Dioceses, and that the joint
committee have the power to hold sessions on
the subject of the trial of Presbyters, during the
and report at the next general conven
tion.
This led to a protracted debate, without com
ing to a vote up to 2 o’clock P. M.
News from Washington. —We copy the fol
low ing from the Star :
Accurate Work. —We hear that since the 20th
of October last, the Post Office Department have
distributed among the various post-masters of the
country postage stamps and stamped envelopes to
an aggregate amount ot more than thiee millions
and a half dollars. These stamps and envelopes
are in denomination for one cent, three cents, and
twelve cents. After taking an account of the
balance on hand, it is found that those thus sent
out are accounted for to within 100 dollars’ worth
or so.
A aval Officers, Ordered, Detached , Sfc —Passed
Midshipman W. W. Low ordered to the steamer
Princeton as Acting Master. Passed Midship
man, Win. R. Mercer, ordered to the Receiving
Ship at Philadelphia. Boatswain Joseph Lewis,
ordered to the steamer Princeton. Passed Mid
shipman Watson Smith, ordered to the steamer
Fuiton. Passed Assistant Surgeon Jeffery, de
tached from the Naval Hospital, at Pensacola,
and has three months’ leave. Passed Assistant
Surgeon Wrn. S. Bishop, has been ordered to
that hospital in his stead.
The Hon. Caroll Spence, U. S. Minister to Con
stantinople, will probably very soon take pas
sage in the U. S. steamer Saranac, at Norfolk,
and sail thence direct tor his post.
The Allegany Abandoned. —We learn that this
steamer, which cost the government some mil
lion of dollars, has been found unfit for service,
and will only be used hereafter a as store ship at
tLe Navy Yard.
Clerks Appointed. —Henry C. Bailey, of New
York, a temporary clerk in the Patent office, has
been transferred to the Pension Bureau, to fill a
vacancy, and Mr. Joseph D. Ward, of North
Carolina, has been appointed to the Patent office
clerkship, recently held by Mr. Bailey.
Wealth of Boston. —The Boston Transcript
gives the following account of the rise and val
uation of that city ; The assessed valuation of
the real and personal e tate in this city the
piesent year is $205,514,200, being an increase
of nearly nineteen million of dollars since las
year. In 1846 the total valuation was $148.-
839.600. In 1844 it was sllß 450,300. As a
matter of public interest, we wilt give the total
assessed valuation of real and personal estates in
Boston each decade of the past halt century: In
1834 it was $74,805,500. In 1824, $49,807,800.
In 1814, $33,037,200. In 1804, $29 031,300.
It will be seen that the increase the past year
amounts to a sum about two thirds as large as
the whole assessed value in 1804. An increase of
eighty-seven millions in ten years indicates that
the cioakings w e have heard about the prospects
and tendencies of our city have not been well
founded.
The portion of the State tax assessed upon
property in Boston, the present year, is about
fifty cents upon a thousand dollars.
Champagne, according to a writer, is made
from a delicious and highly saccharine variety of
the grape. The produce of various vinyards are
mixed according to the market for which the
wine is intended; for even the finest unmixed
wine would yield a product far inferior to what
can be obtained by judicious mixing. When
pressed, the wine is not vatted, but kept in casks
in small quantities; whence it is racked two or
tbree successive times during the winter follow
ing the vintage, and in the spring the difficult
operation of bottling commences. Into each
bottle is put a wine glass lull of syrup, made
Irom sugar dissolved in wine; red wine being
used lor pink, white wine for straw colored cham
pagne; the addition of sugar sets up lermentation
anew. When corked, each bottle is laid on its
side in a frame, through which its neck projects
and is daily gently shaken, so as to prevent any
adhesion of crust on the side, and to make
the dregs collect in the neck of the bottle. At
length it is ready for degorgement, by which
these dregs are removed, this consists ot skilfully
withdrawing the cork, when the confined car
bonic acid forces out the foul portion, which is
directly replaced by bright wine and the bottle
instantly corked by a machine, tied and wired
down.
The bottles are then stacked away in cool
caves, these stacks being so ingeniously built up
that, although each may contain as many as 10,-
000 bottles, any one of them can be withdrawn
for examination. In a warm spring the loss
from the bursting of bottles is often most
serious; Madame Chiquot, of Rheims, for in
stance, lost in April, 1843, no less than 400,000
out of her stock lor that season, of 1,600,000 bot
tles. It is this loss, and the labor and care be
stowed in their preparation which so greatly en
hances the value of the champagne wines. The
annual product of the genuine wine at a low es
timate is fifty millions of bottles ; but this is far
too small a quantity to supply the enormous and
widely spread demand, to meet which, not only
are many of the vineyards of St. Percy Hermit
age, Moselle, Burgundy, Bordeaux, and the Rhine
devoted to the manufacture of an effervescing
wine, but in Paris and elsewhere vast quantities
are made from the common white wines of the
country sweetened and aerated; whilst in the
non-wine growing countries, perry, &c.. are
largely employed in the preparation of fictitious
champagne.
Full Treasury. —There never was a better
time in the state of the United States Treasury
for Congress to do justice to the national credi
tors than the present. If they can possibly spare
money enough from the grasp of all the partisan i
office seekers, let them spare some to the French
Spoiiation Claimants. Here on the one side is a
debt due fifty years ago, the value of which the
nation assumed and Las promised to pay, and on
the other a T. reasury so running over with mo
ney that no one knows what to do with it. Can
there be imagined a better time to pay it ? Will
it be paid ? Is there honesty enough in Con
gress to do it? Twenty-six committees have
decided upon the justice ot the claim; once it
passed Cougress, but received President Polk’s |
veto. Several times a bill for the purpose has *
passed one branch. It ia time that this shuffling \
policy were over end a just claim paid. The i
Treasury is full ; let it be done.— Connecticut

A LI GUSTaTgaT
FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 28.
DAILY AND TRI-WEEKLY
Constitutionalist and Republic.
TERMS REDUCED.
Daily, in advance, $G 00.
If not paid in advance 7 00.
Tri Wreicly, in advance 4 00.
If not paid in advance 5 00.
To give a still wider circulation to the already
large and wide spread circulation of this paper,
the Proprietor offers the Daily at $6,00, and the
Tri-weekly at $4,00 to all new subscribers, and
to all the present subscribers who pay up ar
rearages, if any are Sue, and pay one year in
advance.
Those Daily and Tri-weekly subscribers who
have paid in advance, will be duly credited at
the old rates to the Ist pfox, and at the new
rates after that date.
The increased facilities by mail for Daily and
Tri-weekly intelligence from Augusta, in every
direction, by the various Railroad lines leading
to this city, encourages the proprietor to make
this appeal for increased patronage. It is only
by a great! y increased subscription list, he can
expect to be saved prospectively from the pecuni
ary loss this reduction immediately entails upon
him. He confidently relies upon the friends of
the paper to sustain this movement by their in
fluence and kind exertions.
The importance of Augusta as a leading com
mercial centre, and Depot of Agricultural pro
duce, and its facilities for disseminating intelli
gence commercial, political and miscellaneous,
will be conceded.
The value of a commercial, political, and news
Journal, properly conducted here, to those who
have facilities for receiving it daily or tri
weekly, it is unnecessary to argue. The claim
of the Constitutionalist § Republic to be consider
ed such a Journal, is left to the judgment ot its
readers and the public.
The Proprietor relies upon the friends of the
paper in Augusta to obtain for it _uu increased
city circulation.
Remittances by mail are at the risk of the
Proprietor.
Fine Flour.
Messrs. W. H. Stark & Co., presented us on
Wednesday, with a sample of fine Flour, from
the Mills ol VV. Lenoir, Roane county, Tennessee.
It was sent for exhibition at the recent Fair, and
although it did not carry off the prize, it must
have been with difficulty the judges decided
against it. It is a beautiful article, and, having
tested it, we can say the biscuit and bread made
from it was superior.
New Books.
Messrs. Thomas Richards & Son have placed
on our desk, the following new works, just issued
from the press of the Messrs. Harpers, New York.
Men and Things as I Saw them in Europe, by
Kirwan.
The Homes ot the New World—impressions of
America, by Fredrika Bremer, translated by
Mary Howitt, in two volumes.
Discussions on Philosophy and Literature,
Education and University Reform, chiefly from
the Edinburg Review, connected, vindicated, en

Clouded Happiness, a novel, translated from
the French of The Countess D'Orsay, being No.
184 Hapers Library Select Novels.
Large Fire in Milledgeville.
A telegraphic despatch to the Savannah Re
publican, dated Macon, Oct. 25, says : “ There
was a disastrous file in Milledgeville this morn
ing. It broke out in a work shop, about 10
o’clock, and destroyed the entire square of build
ings opposite Huson’s Hotel. The brick block
containing Child’s Jewelry Store, was also con
sumed. There are but two or three stores left
in the town. None of the Hotels are injured.
The loss is perhaps one hundred thousand dol
lars.
Theatre—Fuller's Benefit.
We hope our citizens and thejnumerous admi
rers of Mr. Fuller, will bear in mind hat he takes
a Benefit at the Theatre, this evening. He offers
an attractive bill— 1 ” Macbeth”— 1 A Musical
O/io,” —and k ' Betsy Baker.’’ Let there be a
crowded house.
The Augusta Hotel.
A correspondent of the Petersburg Daily Ex
press, writing from this city, thus notices this
popular establishment and its worthy landlord.
Augusta, (Ga.) Oct. 13, 1853
Dear Express —On Monday last, byway of
the Augusta and Waynesboro’ Railroad, I arriv
ed at this thrifty and beautiful place. lam now
most comfortably situated at the Augusta Hotel,
which, by the way, is one of the best houses of
the kind in the Southern country. It has re
cently changed hands, and is now under the su
perior management of Mr. Samuel C. Wilson,
who spares neither pains, expense, or anything
else, to make it what it really is, the best Hotel of
the place. The polite and obliging Chief Clerk,
Mr. James Shanks, formerly of the Bollingbrook
Hotel in your city, assists to a very great extent
in maintaining the great popularity which the
house enjoys.
This place, as you are doubtless aware, is situ
ated on the Savannah River, about 135 miles
from the city bearing the same name. A great
many of the private dwellings and stores are of
handsome appearance, and the place wears a
business espect. It has been htahhy this sum
mer almost beyond precedent, as also have the
other eities of the State, notwitstanding reports
to the contrary.
The Portland (Me.) Argus announces the
death of Isaac Ilsley, which took place in that
city on Monday evening the 17th inst. He was
eigiuy eight years of age. He was appointed
Collector of Portland by President Jefferson, and
held the office till some time after the close of J.
Q. Adam s Administration. He leftu large es- j
tate.
During the approaching month of November
the steamship Sarah Sands will sail from Liver
pool, on her first voyage to Portland, Maine, be
ing the commencement of the new steam line
between Liverpool and Portland. The steamers
Cleopatra and Lady Eglington also belong to his
line, and the trips will be made monthly. The
Cunard steamship Company’s boats also adver
tised to call at Portland towards the end of Feb
rupry, to deliver goods. It is anticipated that
the new line above spoken of will do a good bu
siness as the Canadian provinces are now con
nected by railroad with Portland, and communi
cation between them and Europe will be carried
on by means of these steamers. The Sarah Sands
is at present making a voyage from Liverpool to
Quebe
Ihe First Snow.— The Chattanooga Gazette
of the 25th inst., says: Quite a snow lell j
night belore last, on the mountains, and could
be seen yesterday morning from this place. Old
Lookout looked as though she had put on her
winter cap.
Frost.—Th« Savannah Republicaan of 28th i
inst., says “The old adage that" after a storm |
comes a calm,” was yesterday, beautifully illus*
trated in this meridian. The blustering and die*
agreeable weather of last week w r as succeeded
on Monday by a keen North-w T ester, which
broughtTn its train a white- frost which was
generally observed by early risers. We learn
from a country gentleman that the frost was
quite a heavy one, and we are informed by a
gentleman in this city, in whose statement we
have every confidence, that he discovered a basin
of water covered with a thin cake of ice. Yes
terday was altogether as bracing, calm and
pleasant a day as ever was recorded by the
“ clerk of the weather”—quite in contrast with
last Wednesday.
Frost in Macon. —The Savannah Journal of
the 25th inst. says : A gentleman who learned
the fact by Telegraph, informs us that there was
frost in Macon this morning
Frost. —The Madison Visitor of the 27th
inst. says : We were, on last Tuesday morning
for the first time this season, visited with a
heavy killing frost. We may now bid adieu to
vegetation and the late opening cotton.
The Athens Herald of the 27th says:'—'“ On
Tuesday morning, we were visited with a very
heavy white frost—a killing visitation of old
Jack—and ice as thick as window-glass. Every
thing that could be frost-bitten is now dead.
The visitation was so sudden as to make it feci
really cold.”
A letter received in Charleston, dated La
grange, Oct. 25th, says: “ Last night we had a
killing frost, and all cotton is killed perfectly
dead. The crops in this section will be material
cut off.
New Orleans. —The Mayor of New Orleans
communicates to the Piayune a statement of
the moneys received and expended by him for
the relief of the sick and indigent, during the
late prevalence of the yellow fever. The total
receipts amount to $38,311,86, of which he dis
tributed to sufferers $32,810,21, leaving a bal
ance of $5,502, 65 to be applied to the support
of orphans by the epidemic. These statements
are independent of the receipts and disburse
ments of the Howard and other charitable asso
ciations.
The N. Y. Journal of Commerce learns that
on the arrival of the recent war news from Eu
rope, a private meeting of some exiies, of dif
ferent countries, took place in that city, and
that, by their unanimous decision, Major Leon
ard P. Terzucanowski, formerly aid-de-camp of
Gen. Murowslaski, and afterwards CommanJer
in-Chiefof the French legion in Sicily, was ap
pointed to form in this country a volunteer le
gion, intended to sail for Constantinople; that
they chose him as their chief, and swore to ren
der him respect and obedience. If there should
be no war, there will be no occasion for their
services.
The South-Side Ra : l Road Company, in Vir
ginia, has just held its annual meeting at Lynch
burg. The receipts of the Road lor the year
ending October Ist, were over $26,000 more
than the expenditures. A resolution was passed
authorizing the President to borrow $300,000, to
complete the road: and a Imposition discussed to
purchase or lease the Appomattox Rail Road.
Mr. Wm. Panil was re-elected President, and
Peter B. Willis and Samuel V. Watkins were
elected Directors on the part of the Stockhol
ders.
A Painful Accident.— A painful and per
haps serious accident occurred at the house of
Rev. Dr. Griswold, No. 22 West Twenty-third
street, New York, on the 20th inst. It appears
that Dr. C., finding that gas was escaping from
some of the burners on his premises, accompa
nied by a child, with a candle, proceeded from
to room to ascertain the locality of the leak, and
on opening the door of a small apartment in
the third story, a tremendous explosion occurred
instantly, destroying two or three windows,
breaking a partition, and consuming curtains and
other furniture in that part of the house. Dr
Griswold, who was very feeble, with the child,
was thrown back upon the floor of the adjoining
room , but he quickly recovered himself, and
emerged with the child from the llames. Alarm
being given by the mechanics who weie at
work in the house, the gas was quickly stopped
at the meter, and the fire in the upper part of
the house extinguished. Dr. Griswold’s face
and neck were considerably injured, but his
hands suffered most from his efforts to save the
child, whose body was for a moment wrapped
in fire.
Small Change.— lt is stated that in order to
relieve the scarcity of change, the Secretary of
the Treasury has set apart two hundred thousand
dollars of the new silver coin for New York; one
hundred thousand for Boston, and fifty thousand
| for Baltimore, to be put in circulation in a few
j days. It will probably be obtainable in restric
| ted sums, at the sub-treasury for gold coin.
Famine in the Birman Empire.— A terrible
famine is said to be prevailing in Rangoon and
Prome, in the Birman empire, and thousands of
men, women and children will perish, if not re
lieved. The prisons were all full of persons,
who committed crimes, in order to be impri
soned, so that they might have something to eat.
| The crops last year entirety failed.
The New York Sun offers a prize of one thou
| sane dollars to any inventor who will contrive
! the mechanical means by which the paper, as
prepared for printing, shall be supplied, or “fed”
to the press now in operation in its printing
vaults—“ Hoe’s Last Fast,”—at a continuous
j rate of not less than 3,000 sheets per hour. It
also offers SIO,OOO for the patent right, and sole
arid exclusive use of the invention.
Thanksgiving Day.— The Governors of the
following named States have appointed Thurs
i day, the 24th of November, to be observed as a
j day of public thanksgiving and praise :-Con
-1 necticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New
, Hampshire, and Alabama. The Governor of
Maine has appointed Thursday, November 17,
to be observed as a thanksgiving day. A large
majority of the States will no doubt hold their
! annual thanksgiving on the 24th proximo.
We understand says the Charleston Courier
that the receipts of the Washington and New Or
leans Telegraph Company during the month of
September, show an increase over the receipts
during the corresponding month last year of
S3OOO, and that the .receipts for the present
month promise a yet larger increase. This must
be highly gratifying intelligence to the stock
holders, and speaks volumes for the efficiency of
the new Piesident, Smith Mowry, Jr., Esq., of
this city, who has literally worked almost day
and night since his election to promote the in
terests ol the line—indeed, since the first pulsa
tion of the wires it has never been so admirably
conducted, and we cordially congratulate all
concerned on the present satisfactory aspect of
their affairs.
Stock of Grain at St. Louis. —The St. Lou
is Intelligencer of the 12th says:
We notice an unusual amount of wheat, corn
and oats in store. When we say unusual, we
mean more than there has been at any time be*
ore the present or past season. We have no de* \
finite statement of the amount, but would say i
there is as least eighty thousand bushels of I
w heat, perhaps as many of oats, and half the
quantity ot corn, The most of this is held i>y
speculators, who anticipate a further advance iu
prices, and consequently a handsome profit.
Another Comet. —According to an English
paper, another comet is taking a tour through
the Heavens, within the scope of our earthly
vision. It was discovered at Berlin on the 11th
ol September, and on the 15th of October was
visible to the eye. The head equalled in bright
ness a star of the fourth magnitude, and the tail
could be traced aoout one degree. It had a rapid
Southerly motion.

Editor of Constitutionalist 6f Republic. —Allow
me to suggest, through your paper, to the Demo
cratic party, the name of the Hon. Francis JL
Cone, as wo:thy to receive from the Legislature,
the office of Judge of the Supreme Court. Ido
not know that he will be a candidate. Should
he be, and the Legislature should consider emi
nent talents, large experience and great acquire
ments as the principal qualifications for office, it
is needless to say that it need not look beyond
Judge Cone. He has no enemy that would not
say that in all these he has no superior in any
party in the State. OCMULGEE.

The Cotton Crop.
Alabama —The Chambers Tribune, of the 14th,
says:
The farmers of Chambers are now in a fair
way, picking and getting to market their cotton.
Tt is commanding a good price, and they will no
doubt soon have it in maiket. However, there
is some complaint of backwaidness in opening
and shortness ol the crop. This is, we are sorry
to say, in confirmation of a statement made by
us last summer that there would be a short crop.
The Huntsville Advocate, of the 12th, says.—
The weather continues to be most delic ous—
balmy sunshir *■. a dry, hazy atmosphere, and
cool nights and mornings. Better weather for
the farmers vve never saw. Cotton has improv
ed very much and is opening finely.
The Greensboro’ Beacon, ot the 14th inst. says:
The weather has been quite favorable during the
past three w’eek for the maturing and gathering
of Cotton. The crop, how ever, in this section,
even with a late frost, will, we judge, fail con
siderably below that of last year.
The Tuscaloosa Monitor of the 13th says:—
We learn from some of our planters in this sec
tion of the country that their cotton crop will be
an average one. This remark is applicable to
the river crops. The picking is full, and there
is nothing yet to retard its gathering.
Texas. —The Brazos Planter, ot the 12th inst
says : —We have had lor some time past unusually
fine weather. We hear that the Sugar Cane is
veiy ripe for the season, the juice being richer
than it was at any time last year. The cotton
crop of this county will be very light.
The Weather. —As chroniclers of the times,
we notice that until Sunday evening last, but
little rain has fallen this month, and planters
have had a tolerably fair season for gathering
cotton. Gn Sunday night we had a heavy fall
of rain, and the wind coming from North West
while we write, we have every prospect of a
killing frost, which as yet we have not had.
We are glad to learn that the health of
our county has materially improved, and we en
tertain no doubt that a-few killing frosts will
put an end to chills and fevers, which have been
quite prevalent.— Sandersville Georgian, 25th inst.
Things in New York. —On Saturday 100
laborers for the Galveston and Houston Railroad
sailed from New York in the barque Lamartine
for Galveston
The Corn Exchange Association are about
erecting a building suitable to be used for the
purpose of a Corn Exchange. Coenties slip is
spoken of, and they propose to raise $200,000 for
the purpose.
Gov. Bigler, of Pennsylvania, is in the city on
a visit to the World’s Fair.
The cost of cleansing the streets of the city,
during the year ending October Ist, was $245,-

The Very Rev. Wm. Starrs, of St. Mary’s
(Catholic) Church, has been appointed Vicar
General, in place of the Rt. Rev. Dr. Loughlin,
elected Bishop of Brooklyn.
The Cotton Crop.— ln some parts of this
county, the cotton crop is considerably exceeding
that of last year, while in others it is falling very
short. On the whole, we doubt, it the aggregate
production will vary much from the last crop.
In the neighboring section of Georgia, especially
in the plantations on the river, there is a great
falling off. —Eufaulu Spirit of the South.
Another New Ship for Savannah. —Messrs.
Arnold & Co., of Bath, Maine, launched on the
19th, a new ship o! 950 tuns which is purchased
by Messrs. Washburn, Wilder & Co., of Savan
nah, and to be commanded by Capt Paxton, late
of ship State Rights.— Suv. Rep., 26th inst.
Disasters. —The bark Quinnebaug, Jenkins,
from this port, bound to Naritz (Fiance) with a
cargo of timber, was towed into Charleston, on
the 24th inst.
On the 18th inst., 10 days out in !at. 30, long.
79.10, experienced a strong gale from N. E,
which increased until Thursday, P. M., when it
hauled W. S. VV., and blew a hurricane, throw
ing the bark on her beam ends, when the lore
mast was cut away, carrying with it the main
and mizen masts, causing the vessel to leak bad
ly and doing other damage.
The brig D. Walsh, from Darien, bound to
New York witn a cargo of lumber, arrived in
Charleston on the 24th inst., in distress. She
experienced the late gale on the 18th inst., in
lat, 30 30, lon. 80 30, from N. E., at which it
blew heavily for 36 hours, when it backed to
N. W. and blew a hurricane, throwing the ves
sel on her beam ends and rendering it necessary
to cut away the masts in order to right her ; also
caused her to leak, and carrying away part of
her deck load.— lb.
Ship on Fire. —The barque Charles William,
arrived at Boston from Savannah, reports Oct.
11, lat. 35 40, lon. 73 20, saw a vessel on fire,
masts gone, andjib hanging from the jib-boom.
She appeared to be of abont 300 or 400 tons;
passed close her, but saw no boats, and supposed
that the crew had left her.— lb.
Location of the Passenger Depot. —The
vote of our citizens was again taken on Thursday
last, with regard to the location of the General
Passenger Depot. The site selected by the Rail
roads is four lots, in square 44, adjoining the
Catholic Church. The vote of the citizens in fa
vor of that location, was 385 to 84 lor the one
below the Court House. The location is a good
one, and as near the business part of the city and
hotels as any one that could have been obtained.
We are glad to see this vexed question settled,
and have no doubt but that the Railroad Com
panies will speedily erect buildings which will
be ornaments to the city.— Macon Messenger ,
261 h inst.
Improved Fish Hook. —Henry Sigler, of
Houston, Texas, has invented a new improve
ment in the sock dologer fish hook, for which he
has taken measures to secure a patent. The im- !
proverrient consists in making the top portions I
of the main hooks elastic, and so attaching them j
to a vertical guide piece that they will serve as j
Springs to force themselves together. A com-)
mon hook is attached to the lower extremity of
a regulating slide, some distance above the spring J
hook?. The fish, in passing to snap the bait,
operates delicate toggle leavers, which at once
operate the spring hooks that strike into the
body of the fish. This is an improvement on the
Johnson sock dologer hook,— Scientific American.

Detroit, Oct. 23. The Fires in the Woods
near Detroit. —The fires in the woods and marsh
es continue to rage without cessation. There
was a slight sprinkling of rain to-day, but not
enough to do good, and the sky is again clear.
Families are coming into the city hourly, having
been burnt out of their farms.
Cooperstown, N. Y., Oct. 3 Destructive
Fire- —The Cooper Hotel in this place, formerly
the residence of Fennimore Cooper, was destroy
ed by fire last night. Only a portion of the lur
niture was saved. The building w’as insured for
$35,000. The fire was communicated by an in
cendiary.
Murder. —A newly born infant, which had
been previously smothered by a handkerchief
being tightly drawn over the nose and mouth,
and pinned into the flesh of each arm , was found in
the lactory race on Thursday last. An inquest
was held over the body and a verdict in accor
dance with the above facts rendered. No dis
coveries have yet been made which will lead to
the detection ot the perpetrators of this demoniac
deed.— Athens Banner , 27 th inst.
Aeerican Trade with India. —A foreign
correspondent says that the efforts made by en
terprising American merchants to open a trade
with India in cotton goods, has created some as
tonishment, as well as apprehension, in the minds
ot the Manchester men. A correspondence on
this subject, received by the East India Com
pany, has been transmitted for the use and in
formation of the Manchester Commercial As
sociation. It gives some interesting items oi
intelligence respecting a branch of trade opened
up between America and Cei tral Asia. The
branch of cotton trade in which—it is stated—
America can best compete with England, is in
coarse iabrics. There is a heavy weight ot low
priced cotton and little labor, while the expense
ot transit, so severely felt by the British manu
facture!, is saved by the American. The ma
terials—ot which samples have been sent home
-—exported by American manufacturers to India
is a very coarse, unbleached fabric, such as in
England is termed towelling, but which is sole'
to the natives ot India under the name of sheet
ing. It is well suited to the wants of Asiatic
communities. It is also stated that these fabrics
are sent in ship loads, with a supercargo accom
panying them, who, in return, will receive such
raw products as the natives can give, and will be
likely to meet with a ready sale in the home
markets. The Manchester Chamber of Com
merce are taking the question into considaration,
to see in what way they can compete with this
trade in American ‘‘domestics.’ 7

OBITUARY.
Died, at his residence in Oglethorpe county, on
the night of the 22d inst., of Typhoid Fever, Mr.
John W. Dowdy, in the 50th year of his age.
Mr. Dowdy was a native of Wilkes county.—
Among the many who are daily fa ling victims to
this dread disease, seldom do we find one whose de
cease we have to record with feelings of more heart
felt sorrow, and tho tenor of whose life was more
consistent than the subject of this notice. Indus
try, integrity, amiability and piety, contributed to
form in him a character of no ordinary worth, and
to give him a title to the respect and affection of
all who knew him. In common with his venerable
mother, who still survives, he was for year? an or
derly and beloved member of the Baptist Church.
“He was a good man—full of the Holy Ghost and
of Faith/’ He lived the life and died the death of
the righteous, and his desolate widow, orphan chil
dren, and mourning friends, sorrow not even as
those who have no hope. W. H. W.
