Southern Manufactures. —There are in full
operation at Columbus, Georgia, four Cotton
Mills,with a capital of $360,000, and employing
360 hands.—ln these mills are 14,636 spindles
and nearly 400 looms. Another cotton mill has
recently been completed, intended to be worked
by slaves, and which is said to be much larger
than either of the other four; but it has not yet
gone into operation. There are also in Colum
bus and its immediate vicinity, a cotton gin
manufactory which turns out 1200 gins annually,
a very extensive flouring mill, and two found
ries and machine shops.
The editor of the Clinton (La.) Floridian, has
an interesting sketch of the YVoodville, Miss
Cotton Factory, which issaid to be turning out
38.000 yards of cotton cloth per week. Four
thousand spindles are constantly employed. The
capital invested $75,000; profits about liity per
cent, and the number of operatives is generally
one hundred and twenty-five, at a cost of 4,25
per week.
Boston.
The late Rail Road Jubilee held at Boston
(says the Baltimore American) was happily con
ceived and a well managed affair from beginning
o end. ami was largely productive of benefit in
many points of view. The seven different rail
road lines radiating from that city as a common
centre, sent each its thousands to the Jubilee, at
low rates of travel that enabled all to be present
who desired. The Boston Atlas says that the
increased amount of foreign money received at
the Suffolk Bank in the Jubilee week, above the
usual weekly average of deposites in that insti
tution, together with a fair and reasonable esti
mate of the amount of gold taken in the city
during that period, justifies the belief that up
wards of a million of dollars was left in Boston
by those who came there to witness the three
days' jubilee.
Another paper says, that the consumption of
Cochituate water was increased in amount that
week, to the extent of an average of three and a
half millions of gallons each day of the Jubilee,
above the usual daily draft upon the Brookline
reservoir. During the week, nearly twenty mil
lions ol gallons of water extra were required for
the various uses incident to the vast throng of
persons who visited Boston.
From the Atlas we derive the following ad
ditional items:
The whole number of invitations issued by the
Committee of Arrangements, for the late Jubilee,
was 3,875.
< )f this number 823 were sent to Canada West,
784 to Canada East, and 85 to the Lower British
Provinces. The invitations sent into the Cana
das were addressed to parties residing in eighty
seven different cities and towns. The list of
prisoners invited has been pronounced by com
petent judges to be the most complete enumera
tion of the business men of the Canadas ever
made. The members of Parliament and of the
Cabinet number 129. The local authorities of
Canadian towns and cities number 228.
The railroad oflicers invited in the New En
gland States number 182. The Presidents of
lorty-six railroads are included in the above list.
One hundred and seventy-nine invitations
were sent to parties who reside in the Northern
part ol the State of New York. This number
_^ncl udos the officers oi the Ogdensburg Railroad.
* * The Mayors of the rities in New England,
together with the United States Senators and
Representatives, and other ofiicials lrom New

ly the invitations.
In illustration of the facilities of travel and
transportation effected by the new rail road
communication with Canada, it is stated that
Lord Elgin, who left Boston on Saturday at noon
arrived at Montreal the same night.
A writer in the Boston Courier says there was
an appropriate illumination and exhibition in the
railroad procession on the 19th nit., which seems
to have escaped entirely the notice of tire numer
ous reporters on that occasion. Nearly all the
various articles, banners and embellishments,
were noticed in the reports, and some were very
fully described, with high wrought encomiums.
The pageant in quest ion was not ‘‘profusely de
corated with liugs and evergreens, stars,stripes.’’
It was not drawn by “lour grey horses, each
carrying a Hug;” there was not “artificial rosetts
of gold and silver ribbons” to attract attention.
It was a plain express wagon, with ten barrels
of flour, a staff twelve feet long, surinouted with
a plain gilt eagle, and a white and buff banner,
bearing the following inscription: “Western Vir
ginia Flour, via Ohio river, Great Lakes, Ogdens
burg, and Vermont railroads. 772 barrels from
one mill—consigned to Lyman Reed & Co., Bos
ton. Distance transported 1000 miles; time of
transportation 12 days; height per barrel 81,05
from the Ohio river-to Boston.
Following the banner was a “Boston tr»:ek,”
containing the usual load of twenty barrels of
the same article, drawn by two horses, with a
‘white banner attached, having inscribed on it:
‘Buchanan’s Extra Flour from WellsWug, Wes
tern Virginia.”
Tin: Money Panic in New York.—Bank
1’ aii.ui: k. —The Brokers in New York have de
termined not to redeem any more of the uncur-
Holes with which that city is flooded. The
correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer says :
A panic, of course, was the consequence among
the holders of these notes, especially among such
as relied upon them to meet their own obliga
tions;' and the panic will, we apprehend, as the
newspapers spread the news, go beyond Wall
street. The sudden change in the value of un
current money will create some distress among
shop-keepers and mechanics, and to a certain ex
tent. depreciate the value of their goods and laD
bor. ~
The following Banks have liben. reported as
failed: James’ Bank, Saratoga county; Farm
ers' Bank. Mina ; Western Bank, White’s Creek;
Merchants' Bank, Canandaigua, and Bank of
New Rochelle. These are all Banks of mere
circulation, and sometimes, nicknamed in Wall,
street “ Wild Cats.” The securities for the cir
culation are mostly in State Stocks, and of course
ample, and therefore we advise holders not to be
hasty in disposing of their bank notes at a sacri
fice.
The panic in notes will probably alarm the
people generally with respect to Bank paper.—
But we need not unnecessarily be excited,as the
Banks are strong enough to take care of them
selves.
'The affairs of the Commercial Bank of Perth
Amboy have been placed in the hands of Re

U S. Mint. —During the month of Septem
ber there were coined at the U. S. Mint at Phil
adelphia 0)8,793 pieces of gold, of the value of
81,087,123: also 1,411,493 pieces of silver, of the
value of $4,136,682; and 035,271 cents. The
gold bullion deposited for coinage from the Ist
to the 39th of September, 1851, inclusive, was
$4,045,500, of which $3,960,500 was from Cali
fornia, and $75,000 from other sources.
The GalvestonJNews says that the men re- ;
cently assembled at St. Joseph's Island and other j
points west, to join the Cuba expedition, had not j
dispersed at the last accounts. There are many |
old Rangers among them, to whom the prospect j
of entire peace presents few attractions, and it is j
to be apprehended that they may’seek in Mexi
co the occupation from which they have been
cut olf in Cuba.

The U. S. revenue cutter Forward sailed from

on board Gov. Letcher, of Kentucky, United
State Minister to Mexico. He did not sail in
the U. S. steamer Saranac, as here'ofore an

Terrible Drought in Texas.— The Houston
Telegraph is informed that the drought lias been
so severe in the frontier counties of Texas, be
tween the Trinity and the Brazos, that the grass
through a belt of country more than a hundred
miles broad, is literally parched up. It was so
dry, that when rubbed between the hands, it
crumbled like dry furze. The cedar forests in
many places were all brown and sere, and scarce
ly a living tree, could be found for miles. Fires
had swept through some of these forests, and
thousands of acres had been cleared as effectually
as if the woodman's axe had been busy for years.
The prairies are so parched that the buffalo has
deserted its old haunts, and the Indians are com
pelled to wander far to the north for game. Ma
ny of the prairie tribes are in a starving condi
tion, and unless the government furnish them
food, all the troops in the Union cannot keep
them from stealing the cattle of the frontier set
tlers.
Rio Grande dates to the 22d ult. have been
received at Boston, which state that a collision
had taken place, (where it is not mentioned,)
between the opposing forces. At Buenos Ayres,
Produce was scarce there, and hides particularly
so.
| Outrage at Syracuse, N. Y.—The outrage at
| Christiana (Penn.) lias met with its counterpart
|at Syracuse, New York. The telegraph inform
i ed us on Saturday that a fugitive slave had been
| arrested there which had caused some excite
! ment, but that subsequently all was quiet. The
J latter part of this intelligence was incorrect. An
examination of the slave took place on the even
ing of the Ist, but the. Court was compe-jwl to
adjourn from the riotous proceedings of Mrs oris
in the vicinity of the Cour‘ room. The m uni
nation was to have been resumed the
but on the same evening some
into the police ollice. where the slave hadH
placed for safe keeping, by battering
doors, and rescued the prisoner, who was ciy®*]
off. In his endeavors to recover the slave
from the possession of the rioters, Marshal Fitch,
of Rochester, had his arm broken in two pla^s.

We find the following in the Galveston News
of the 26th ult., relative to the crops in Tef/M
MrJi'L'N. John, who lias just returned
journey rtrfough some eight or ten counties on
the Trinity, and having had ample opportunity
to judge of the prospects of this year's crops,
, informs us that the corn crop is generally short,
being scarcely sufficient (or the consumption of
the country, and that the crowds of emigrants
constantly pouring in must necessarilly increase
the demand for g oceries and prolusions far be
yond what it has been any preceTnng year. With
■idgaitl to the cotton crop, Mr. John confirms our
previous information. Indeed, his opinion is,
that the counties he has traversed will produce
about an average with last year's crop, and that
the total amount for shipment will exceed that
of last year in propor.ion to the increase in the
amount planted.
The following statement will be deemed al
most incredible by most persons who do not
know the parties. But we give it to the public
with the full endorsement if Mr. Shackelford,
who knows the writer, and will vouch for the
truth of what is here stated:
Mrs. Nine's Plantation, Oyster Creek, )
September 15, 1851. J
Mr. Shackelford. —Our cotton crop is turning
out well this season. I have up to this time
packet seventy-seven hales, fifty packed and
twenty-seven in Houston, and do not think I
have picked much over one-third, provided I
have a continuance of gx>d weather. By the
way I send you the number of pounds picked by
ten hands, on the 13th inst., all good and dry
c tton, except the dew of the morning: 500, 425,
354, 510, 3G2, 172,490, 813, and 920 pounds, av
erage 524 8-10 pounds to the hand. The two
last were on a race for the value of fifteen dollars
put up by their mistress. The Sl3 pounds were
picked by Ned, whom you well kno.v, and the
020 pounds were picked by a yellow girl, named
Elizabeth, about 18 years old, and weighs 120
pounds.
Mr. Henry P. Cayce writes us from Peach
Creek, Wharton county, as follows:
Our cotton picking tr the hand, on the oth
inst.. (Sept.) ranged from 200 to 669 pounds.
On the same day the three foremost hands ori
j the plantation of Messrs. George W. T.lley anl
, Benjamin Cayce, (two of them women,) stood
I 542, 619, 669 pounds, making in all 1830 pounds,
which will make a bale weighing 500 pounds.
The same hands are able to pick 2,000 poumb
per day, when the cotton is fully opened. M
In this part of the country our cotton crifl
are very fine, being considered rather over
average in some parts. Corn crops are
and it is thought corn will be worth more JM m
it has ueen for several years past. m
We hear of same camplaints ol the cAtjri
worm, which has made its appearance on
plantations, and have already done some dam
age. They are now webbing up, and it is be
-1 lieved the seeond generation ol them, whicl
j will appear in about fifteen days, will destroy
the numerous forms and blooms now making
thereby injuring the late crops near one-half
The forward crops are toirfar advanced to sustair
; much injury from the worm.
The Tribune mentions a severe storm, whicl
occurred at Matagorda last week, causing a gooc
j deal of da nage to the cro is. It is feared tha
i much cotton has been destroyed, and whole (ieidi
of sugar cane are said to have been prostrated.
The Galveston News learns that the influx o
emigration to the Trinity country this year is
very great. Lands which were ofiered last yea
for three or four dollars per acre, can now hi
sold readily for eight or ten; and such as could hi
had ten months ago for fifty cents per acre cai
now be sold for two dollars in cash.

COTT(%T.—Our market opened on Wednesday last
quiet, in consequence of unfavorable intelligence from

gradually giving way. until we have to notice a decline
from the quotations given on that day of full jj to $
cent on all qualities. The offering stock is light, hut
more than sufficient to meet the demand, which is gen
erally confined to grades ranging from Good Middling
to Fair. The receipts are very Light for the season of
the year, and nearly all reaching this market is sold on
recei[d. The market closed very dull last evening, and
in sucl an unsettled state that it is impossible to give
quotations with any degree of accuracy. We would re-
however, that buyers do not seem disposed to
pay More than 8} cents for Good Middling, and 8£ to J>£

TO PREVENT BALD
TIIE human qair has, in all agesA>een admitted
to be the most beautiful ornamont belonging to
the human frame. The loss of it changes the coun
tenance and, prematurely, brings on the appear
ance of old age. As a complete remedy for these
defects, OUi utge's Halm of Columhia is offered to
the public, which will prevent the hair from falling,
in forty-eight hours after the first application. It
also prevents the hair from turning gray —makes it
look bright and glossy, and frees it from scurf.
