Important Extension of Credit. —The
Phiiadt-Uibia papers state that the creditors of
Messrs. Reeves, Buck be Co., represer,ting claims
to the amount of about $7011,000, have held a
meeting in that city, and agreed unanimously
to give the firm any extension of time they may
need to meet their liabilities. Their assets, it is
•rated, are ample to iar more than cover every
dollar for which they are liable. The impor-
Itrice of this arrangement may be judged of by
Ht he fact that thie firm, in connection with that
o’ Reeves, Abbott fit Co., are the proprietors of
these verf extensive iron works, employing in
’*ll some 1 800 or S,OQQ operatives, numbering,
with their l&miiies and those who are indirectly
connected With the works, some 12,000 or 15,-
■ 000 pet BOOS. these works of the firm the
lac Bridgeton (N J) Works are devoted to
weekly stout 800 to°n •ot railroad non and 150
tons of merchant bar iron, together ot the value
of SOS 000 or S7O 000 The reader will see
gpom this the importance to the commonwealth,
M well as to the veryiarge number of dependent
persons, that these works should be continued in
operation, it is also important to the creditois.
as we are informed the contracts on which they
are engaged are yielding a profit of $20,000 a
month. Relieved 'rom the enormous rates that
the firms have been paying lor means to carry
on their their accruing piotits will, in a
short tiX, place them on their leet again.

Sai.es or Bonds and Real Estate. —Messrs.
Pflilbncs. 6c Bell sold yesterday $3,500 worth of
7 per cent. City Bonds, at 90 a 93. The bids
being ucsctiitactory, no more bonds were offer-
Same real estate was put up also, but the pri
ces •offered being much less than of those at
which the same property could have been dis
posed of six months ago it was not upon
tbe > market, and consequently no sales were
•Blade.
K This is not the time to offer suggestions to the
rawly elected Mayor and Board of Aldermen ;
r the finances of the City will doubtless receive
f tueir early attention; yet justice to them re
j§ quiies us to state, what indeed the above sales
already disclose, that they do notenter upon of
fice under the most favorable circumstances. —
They will heve important duties to yerform. not
~ the least of which will be the stoppflfg of every
leak by which the money in the
jSft'reasury can escape. Os course all obligations
must be discharged, and the character of the city
Ice. ntamed , but hazardous enterprises and ex
penditures of questionable utility, will doubtless
|||p b# subjected to the closest scrutiny.
In what we have here said, we do not mean
to reflect in the remotest degree upon the present
V or any former municipal auminiatration, and
least of all, upon that which is about going out
ot power. But the condition of the country is
very different now from what it waa a few
mouths ago; and while it is not given to man
to see imo the future, it is bis privilege and his
duty to look at the prtura , and prepare to meet
its demands. The times require great circuru-
Ipgpeetioa from ail, and especially from corporate
bodies.
After the foregoing was id type, we learned
shat Mr. T. J. Walsh sold five shares of stock in
the Bank ot the State of Georgia, at 110*, and
five at 109. Some Central Railroad stock was
W sold by Messrs. Philbrick Sc Bell at 105, and
and 5,000 convertible bonds of the Southwestern
Road at 88. These as well as the other sales,
were made in frout of the Court House.— Sav.

Negro Shot.— Between tbs hours of seven
and eight o’clock last evening, a man named
John Bergheim snot a free negro named Muscbel
Boiteuillet in the head with a pistol, indicting a
slight wound. The affair occurred in a grocery
and bar-room at the corner of Bull and York
streets, near tbe Court House. The circumstan
ces of tbe case, as related to us, are as ioilow6 :
Bergheim and the negro were in the back room
of the grocery, where liquor is kept for sale. Al
ter some conversat.on in relation to the result of
the election, the negro took out hi 3 pocket-book
and offered to back his opinion of the same with
a bet. As soon as the pocket-book was seen by
Bergheim. he took possession of it, and a dispute
ensued. Bergheim after examining the pocket
book, returned it to the negio, and struck bun a
blow in the moutb. The negro returned the
blow with a small stick. Bergheim immediate
ly drew a revolver, and, firing, shot the negro in
the head—the ball glancing, and only inflicting
slight wound. Bergheim, we learn, attempt
ed to fire once or twice more, but his pistol did
not go off. He then escaped out of the back
door, and was folio wed some distance by several
boys, and oue or two of the police, but succeeded
in making bis escape. Tbe police continued in
active pursuit, but we could not learn that they
bad succeeded in making the arrest.— Savannah

The Railroad Movement in Albany. —The
Committee appointed by the citizen* of Albany,
Geo., to obtain subscriptions to the contemplated
*# railroad from Albany to the South Western con
nection,in the direction of Eufaula, have repor
ted stock taken to the amount of $43,400.
gkg|| f|Ve observe that a meeting of the citizens of
th« aurrounding country is called by Mr. W. W.
■Cbeever and otners,to meet in Aibany to-day,
|Si**to cousiderth* great of promoting
their own interest, by the extension o! the Soatb
Western Road from Americus to Dougherty
county.”
This movement is regarded by the editor of
the Patriot aa being in opposition to ibe Albany
and Eufaula enterprise. The editor, after allu
ding to the fact that the people of Aibany are
cot invited to the meeting, adds :
•* The interests of the people of Albany and
those of the surrounding country are identical, it
is tbair iateiest to secure the amount .necessary
lor a road 16 miles, and then to secure, if possi
ble, tfie extension of the South Western Road.
There has been no opposition felt or exhibited
by the friends of the Albany Road to the exten
sion of the South W eatern. On the contrary,
they have promoted that project whenever they
could do it consistently with their interests. We
regret to learn that a spirit of opposition to the
Albany Road i* being exhibited oy some gentle-
I i.oseo who are supposed to have prospective in
terests in a rival town speculation at the end of
/the South Western Railroad extension.”— lb.
Facta about Guano.
It is scarcely fifteen years since Guano waa
yUfst recommended to the sotice of farmers in
England and Scotland, at a substitute for farm
yard manure, or aa auxiliary. Notwithstanding
|b« incredulity and caution with which its claims
jSwere at first received, there is now aa impeita
„ tion annually ot about 15,000 tons into the dif
ferent poits of Great Britain, which, at an aver
age oi j£lo per ton would amount to an expen
diture ot one million five hundred thousand
sterling, or about $7,500,000 on this one
foreign manure alone. In one County ot Scot
land—that of East Lothian— it is estimated tha t
from 1$ to 18 shillings sterlings are expended
lor Guano and other portable manures for ever/
acre of the cultivated laud. Indeed, sometimes
as much as forty shillings’ worth ol Guano, or
nearly ten dollars’ wortn, is applied to one sin-
B* acre. A case of this kind is mentioned in
e fast numoer of the Journal ot the Royal
giiculturai Society. On a very inferior piece
Sand, for which only twenty shillings w a *
paid as rent, as much as forty-six shillings’
worth of Guano was applied to every acre, tae
crop abundautly justifying this very liberal ex
pendituie.
Tfef bauefee.aJ waits from tbs us# of Gu*a«, j
| if not always the greatest, are at least always
the most observable, w hen applied to poor or
■ worn-out soils—such as cannot be made to pro
duce a remunerating crop by ordinary means.—
On such soils it will often be iound to pay to
apply 200 or 300 pounds of Guano, at an ex
pense of $5 or $6, when Guano costs SSO per
ton. When applied to soils in good condition,
the increase in the crop is not observable ; but
the increase of crop is generally very striking
indeed when the fertilizer is applied to lands
greatly exhausted of their fertility.
As the fertilizing properties of Guano are in
I too concentrated a condition to be applied in an
! undiluted state to seeds or plants, it must be di
• uted by being compounded with some innocuous
or inert substance. Dry leached ashes, or saw
dust, or pulverized peat from ditches, will answer
the purpose. One part or bulk of Guano may be
mixed with five or six parts or bulks oi either of
iuese. Os this compound a tab!espooniul is auN
i ficient for a h>II of corn or other vegetable.—

_ Hobor.—-Some men think it an honor to be
D.D.ed. some think it honorable to be kicked
by a King, or despised by a rich man like Mr.
Peabody, of London. Some think it an honor to
be in Congress, Some hold it honorable to know
! nothing. Some think it an honor to be puffed
in a paper that sells its editorial columns tor so
[ much a iine. Some es eem it honorable to be
( toasted by hiccuping drunkards. But Rev. Theo
dore Parker, who has been flattered with abun
-4 dance of extravagant abuse before now reckons
it bis chief honor to have been arraigned in the
i States Court as implicated io the “Burns
| riot” at Boston, last May: so at least he said in
his late Thanksgiving Sermon. Happy slate of

A Sad Case —The Cincinnati Columbian
relates the following:
The many phases of life, crime and suffering
presented during our local editorial career have
seldom affected us sd much as an instance of
moral and mental shipwreck which recently oc
curred in this city. One year ago, there were
few fairer and more interesting girls than Miss
——, the daughter of a wealthy gentlemen ot
this city. Her kind and amiable manners had
won tor her a large circle of friends, and a long
and happy life seemed just opening before her.
In an evil hour she fell a victim to some sedu
cer’s wiles, and when at last the evidences of
her fall could no longer be concealed, and her
father discovered her dishonor, be at one turned
her with bitter reproaches into the street. Os
all her friends, noue would longer know ber,
and, without a house, she found refuge in the
Commercial Hotel, where she became a mother,
and at the same time - a raving manic. Inces
santly calling upon her seduce, or upon her fath
er, imploring forgiveness and striving to kneel at
the feetfof the fancied parent, she was in a few
days sent to the State Asylum for the Insane,
with but faint hopes ot the light of reason again
breaking upon the darkened chambers of her
mind.
Eighteen Years a Caftive among Indi*
ans.-— The Macoupia (Illinois) Statement gives
an account of a man named Jos. Barney who
mad his escape in May last from the Fiat Head
Indians, in Oregon, after being in captivity for
eighteen years. A man named John Robert
son was taken captive at the same time. The
account thus narrates what occurred after thev
were taken to the camp of the Indians:
‘'Theyw’ere unbond and confined in a hut,
wheie they were fed, but not aiiowed to escape!
The chief offered tham his two daughters it they
would marry and remain with the tribe. Find
ing escape utterly impossible for the time being,
the terms were accepted, and the marriage took
place. The fruits of this marriage were two
children, both of whom are still living—a daugh
ter (16) and a son (14.) both of whom he left
with the tribe. Two years ago Robertson at
tempted to escape, but was taken, scalped and
burned aiiv-, leaving 'three children with tha
tribe. Seven years ago Baruey attempted to es
cape, but was recaptured, and "would have been
put to death but tor the interposition of his wile,
who was the daughter of the chief.”
l From the Dallas Gazette, j
Judge Douglas—Sam Banian.
In “Dorsey’s Dispatch (Wetumpka) we find
the following extract from the Chicago Times :
During Judge Douglas’ tour he was able to fill
every regular appointment made by him except
two. One of them was made at Lacon, on Tues
day last, and the other at Aurora. He spoke at
Princeton lor several hous on VVeddesday. These
appointments he was unable to luifil m conse
quence of extreme illness.
The abolitionists ot this city having sent their
appropriate mouth piece, the negro Fred. Doug
hs, to Aurora tor the express purpose of insult
■ ing Jndge Douglas, the illness ot the latter gen
tleman was a sad disappointment to them. We
think they may rej *ice that the latter was not
able to speak.
But as the negro had been paid for a day’s due
ty, they determined to use him any how, and lor
tbi9 puipose they organized a meeting at the
Universalist Church, and the negro apostle there
held lortn for over an hour. He was listened to
quietly, and heard without interruption. He was
loilowed by a Maine-law Abolition Know No
thing, named Beonan, hailing from New York,
oi the Legislature ot which State he claims to
have been at one tune a member. Both of these
geutry, or “brethren,” as they styled them
selves, spake long and forcibly on the value of
free speech, free press, and free everything gen
eral'y. *
The Dispatch says: “Now this Bsman must
be, as the Alabama Journal used to cali him,
‘Our barn,’ who once lived in Wetumpka.”
We have been imormedthat Mr. Beman (who
is, perhaps, as well known to our readers as to
us) resides in New York, and that he is, or has
been, a member of the Legislature of that State.
We tear that he is the mau mentioned in the ex
tract from the Chicago paper—we say fear, be
cause he ba3 relatives in this Statj whom we
highly esteem. If it is Sam he has for
feited the regaid of his Southern kindred, and is
one more addition to the long list of traitors that
are d tiiy deserting the homes of J,heir birth.
The Cotton Crop.— The annexed important
remarks upon the Cotton crop are from Mr.
Wright’s circular at New York, for the steamer
[ which sailed on Wednesday for Europe:
The extent of the present incoming crop is
, still a matter of speculation to nearly every one
: \ engaged in the business, and though opinions
| differ less thau usual, there is still a margin of
200 000 bales in the extremes. I have paid
much attention to the subject, and have received
' from impartial authorities the facts as they have
transpired during the season. In view, theie
j fore, of the information I have received, and in
| the absence of all complaints as to the existence
i during the entire seasou of the boll-v orm, army
| i worm, or caterpillar, and the occurrence of frost
: at a very iate period, I arrive at the conclusion,
that the present indications are that this crop will
be tht largest ever madt in the United States.—
The receipts of Cotton into the ports are retard- i
0u by the low state of aii the Southern rivers.

Sons or the Czar at Sebastopol —The sons

Negro Shot.
On Wednesday night, a Negro man, the property
of R. A. Fleming, was shot on the corner of Mar
bury and Ellis sfeets, by a young man by the
name of James Clarke. He was shot in the side,
| and is now laying in a critical condition, with but
little hope that he will survive. When shot, the
pi3tol was so near the person of the Negro, that on
its discharge his clothes took fire. Clarke made a
hasty retreat after committing the deed, and our
city officers were, soon after the in pur
suit of him, but up to the time of going to press,
we have heard of no arrest.
The Baby Show.
i Yesterday was the day for the exhibition of
Babies,'at the Annual Fair of the Southern Ag
ricultural Society. The attendance was good,
particularly on the part of the fairer portion of
creation, the Ladies. The Baby bhow was one
of the greatest attractions. At the hour of 12,
1 there was a general rush to see the entries, and
we had just entered the room where they were
collected, when notice wa9 given for all but the
: j
Committee to retire. Os course we vamoused
with the rest, and took up our position near the
speakers stand, knowing that after the decision
of the Committee, (which has not been made
public) the beautiful little responsibilities would
be exhibited to the public. We were not dis
appointed, and had hardly secured a good posi
, tion, before we were surrounded by a crowd of
ladies and gentlemen anxiously awaiting their
appearance. The crowd was not held in su*-
1 pense lor any length of time, before Mr. John
S. Hutchinson made his appearance on the plat
, form, arid taking the little darlings in his arms,
one by one, be exhibited each to the crowd, ex
■ ! patiating on their different merits. On taking
' possession of one of the youngest, it commenced
crying, when he made the truthful remark, tbat
fj “he hoped the audience would not judge the
' ; specimen exhibited by present appearances, for
although young, it wa9 but the development of
! the future and a burst of human nature.”
The specimens exhibited (of which there were
seven or eight,) would do credit to any state in
the Union. To-day, the awards will be made
and the fortunate babies, and their loving moth
ers, will no doubt be present. We expect to see
a crowd about the speaker’s stand, as a deep in
terest seems to be fait in the result by both old
• and young.
I j The judges will no doubt do full justice, as
none of them have any of their own to make a
comparison with. The only information we can
! give the public is, we beard one ot the female
judges say, that it was hard to decide between*
thras of them, but either wou’d suit her.
The Cadets,
Our streets yesterday morning were enlivened
by martial music and the appearance of two
Companies of Cadets from the Georgia Military
Institute at Marietta. Alter going through sun
t dry military manoeuvres and marchrng through
some of our principal streets, both Companies
# repaired to their camp-ground. In tha after
noon, they paid the city another visit, r unaer the
t command of Col. Brl'mbv. On halting before
* the Lnited States Hotel, they were received and
welcomed to the city by His Honor the Mayor
and the members of our City Council. We
j wer « not present on the occasion, but learn that
the addresa of the Mayor was in his usuai style,
I sho:t, to the point and sincere.
! After the reception, the Cadets went through
‘ vanous evolutions, marching and counter-march
, ing —firing by platoons, company and battalion,
ail of which were executed with the exactness
of veterans, and elieited much applause from the*
numerous spectators.
They then marched down Broad street, and to
their Camp ground, where they were dismissed,
the Camp broken up, and the members separated
for their respective homes, as there is a vacation
until February next.
We cannot part with this youthful band, with
out complimenting them on their soldierly-like
and gentlemanly bearing while in our city. As
soldiers or gentlemen they are an honor to tbe
State, and have not their superiors in the Union
—West Point not excepted.
The Fair;
The Fair Grounds w r ere thronged yesterday
with visitors of both sexes, and exhibitors had
an ample opportunity to display their varied
works of art and industry. The agreeable tern*
, perature of the weather added much to tha plea
sures of the day ; and the beauty and fashion at
i present in tbe c.ty, turned out in fu.l array. The
i practical farmer and husbandman, the intelligent
and hardy mechanic, and gentlemen of other
; professions or callings, and last, but not least, the
frugal, tidy aud every way worthy matrons,
who have honored tha Fair grounds r.ot only
with their presence, but with many valuable
contributions ot their own handiwork—all, all
mingied together in harmonious concotd yester
day, and mAde the day one of delight to ail pre
sent.
| The occasion was otherwise interesting and
instructive. The annual Address before the
j Central Agricultural Society, was delivered by
Col. Powell, of Alabama, and while we regret
that pressing engagements debarred us from
hearing this distinguished and eloqueut gentle
man, we understand that his address was replete
with sound practical wisdom, and presented m
chaste - aud impressive language.
An Address was likewise delivered by Pro
j fessGr Baer, of Marylaud, which was very favor- i
ably regarded. The well known scientific at
tainments of this gentleman, were well sustain
ed. .
i At the annual meeting of the Society, yeater,
day, an election was held for officers for the year
1855. The following is tbe result, Hon. Thos.
Stocks of Greene, President; Hon Mark A. Coop*
, er, of Cass; and P. M. Nightingale, of Dougherty,
Vice Presidents; Wm. M. D’Antignac.ot Rich

wouid say,the public have awarded to ell the

! MeLaap'* Liver Fills This
■ groat Medicine has supplanted all oth
; era for the cure of diseases of the Liver. Its es.
: foots are so silutary and speedy, and at the same
j time so perfectly gafe, that it is not surprising it
! should supercede all others. Invented by a very
distinguished physician of Virginia, whj practiced
| a region of country in which II patis. or Liver
i Complaint, is peculiarly formidable and common,
and who had spent years in discovering the ingre
dients and proportioning their quantities, those
Pills are peculiarly adapted to every form of the
I disoaso, and never fail to alleviate the most obsti
j p a t° cases of that terrible complaint. Thev have
justly become celebrated; and the researches of
: Dr. McLane have placed his name among the ben-
I «factors of mankind. No one having symptoms
\ of formidable complaint, should bo without
these invaluable Pills. Have you a pain in the
; right side, under the edge of the ribs, which in
creases with pressure—unable to lie with ease on
the left side—with occasional, sometimes constant,
! pain nndor the shoulder-blade. frequently'exteud
i ing to the top of the shoulder ? Rely upon it, that
i although the latter pains are sometimes taken for
Rheumatic, they all arise from disease of the Liv
er ; and if you would have relief go instantly and
buy a box of Dr. McLane’s Liver Pills-
will be careful to ask for Dr. 1
M Lane s Celebrated Liver Pills, and take none j
else. There are other Pills, purporting to be Liv- !
er Pills, now before the public. D . M’Lane s Liv- j
or Pills, also his Celebrated Vermifuge, ean now be j
had at all respectable Drug Stores in the United I
States and Canada.
