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 England, number 118. , Kilty-five officers of the United •undNavy were invited. The coijamisSioned of ficers of the State invita- number '^jUil^mout 300 public officers connected h County undStateJgovernment.re vcd invitations. One hundred and fifty per .;s from the mechanical, and an equal number ...'lourmercantile community, i tickets. About 300 distiuguishen pfrsons, from all portions of the United States, and from dilferent countries of Europe, were in the city to witness the ceremonies, and were furnished with invitatior^r Our readerjf-an fSriMscmie-idea of llfc great amount of labor involved'in the celebration, by an estimate of the vast work required in mere 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 ceivers. 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. [£7- We learn with great regret, by telegraph, of the death of the Rev. C. B. Jennett, the be loved Pastor of the Baptist Church in this city. He died at Petersburg, Va. on Sunday last, at 2 o’cidk, p. m A Thurible Tragedy.— John Kirby, an old and respectable citizen of Tuscaloosa, Ala., was shot in the Court House of that town on the 20th ult.

Letcher, of Kentucky, United State Minister to Mexico. He did not sail in the U. S. steamer Saranac, as here'ofore an nounced. 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. OS** We have received a communication gB ing an account of the recent examination ol tne pupils of Brothersville Academy, under the charge of Miss Parsons, which was mislaid. Jiflt will appear in our next. 1 Sentence of the Michigan Railroad C 'n srißATdhs.—The twelve prisoners convicted o( conspiracy to burn the central railroad depot in Detroit were brought up for sentence on the 26th ult. The Advertiser says that when Judge Wing inquired whether they or their counsel hail ought to say why sentence should riot be passed, Filley. Williams, Corwin, Dr. Farnham, Eben Price, Richard Price and Lyman Chiunp lin, each rose, and protested their innocence. The Court sentenced them to imprisonment in the State penitentiary; Orlando D. Williams and Ammi Filley for ten years each ; Win. Cor win, Aaron Mount, Elien Price, Richard Price, Dr. Farnhanr and Andrew J. Freeland, for right years each: and Erastus Champlin. Lyman Chapiplin, Willard Champlin, and Erastus Smith -furtive years each. Do Girls Draw Lightning? —A ‘down East' paper publishes the following: “ The house of Mr. Boyce, in Plainfield, Conn, was recently struck by lightning. There were twenty-six girls in the house at the time, but not one of them was injured. The house was never stiuck before. Do gills draw ljglitning ?” Os course they do. and ‘spallWFalso.

A Masonic hall has-been contracted for in Rusk, Cherokee county, at $2,300, to be built of brick, two stories high. A fine church is also to be built by contract in the same place, called “Union Church.'-’ The Methodist Church in ihe same place is now about completed. 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 Kurope. and lias continued in that state since, prices 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>£ j for Miihlling Fair to Fair, but at these prices there arc butffew sellers.
