Cmtstitutraiwlißl k iUputifir. [communicated.] “Historical Collections of Georgia," By the Rev. George White of the Diocese of Georgia. A correct history of the Aborigines ol any country is always a cherished desideratum with the Statesman and the Philanthropist, and al though a narrative of all nations, both ancient and modern, is more or less obscured by fable, it is eageily sought for and perused by the general reader. In this progressive age, when science and the arts are industriously working to civil ize and christianize the Heathen world, the United States ol America has already taken a prominent position among the nations of the earth. Under her model constitution, giving a guaranty of protection and security to an illimi table population, to be spread over an erea of country of every soil and every climate, this infant Republic is no doubt ultimately destined to act no second part in the drama of nations More fortunate than most other nations, in tracing her origin—and justly proud of her honorable descent —with but little more than three-quarters of a century since the date of her great natal jubilee, she already numbers a population of nearly twenty-five millions of in habitants. Bound together by a confederation of States, each an imperium ia imperio, it is highly important and desirable, at the earliest moment, to preserve an authentic record of the origin of these separate governments, with their progres sive advancement in population and every other circumstance connected with their statistics. >■ Among the original thirteen States of the ' Federal Union, the enterprise of Georgia gives v , her a pre-eminence, which causes her to be dis tinguished, as the “Empire State of the South,” and renders it more than ever desirable, while in possession of the necessary documents, to preserve an unbroken chain of her history, from the last link which bound her in Colonial de pendence with the Mother Country. The pre servation of the series of events in the history of this now sovereign ans independent State, is the object of the Rev. George White, in the work j above referred to, and now ready for the Press. The patronage extended to this gentleman, in his l ’’ Statistics of Georgia” is an earnest of suc cess in the present more elaborate work, his “ Historical Collections of Georgia .” Mr. White has been many years engaged in the collection of materials for this work. He has been favored by the Legislature of Georgia, with the loan of the Colonial documents, procured from England; and his untiring exertions, have given him ac cess to the Libraries of Charleston and Savannah, to the public offices in Milledgeville—to many of the county records—the examination of ex tensive files of newspapers, together with valua ble Revolutionary documents and information derived from correspondence with many distin guished gentlemen. In connection with the colonial History of Georgia and the progress of events, leading to her elevated eminence among her sister States, will be found many important treaties with some of the Indian tribes and several interesting biographies of her distinguished Patriots and Statesmen—together with a de tailed history of each county in the State. Mr. White has acquired for himself, merited distinction as a Teacher of Youth for many years in Savannah and subsequently in the in terior of Georgia. Indefatigable in every en terprise in which he becomes engaged, and deeply interested in the work he has now, with much labour, prepared for the Press, the public will no doubt be amply compensated for the patronage they may generously bestow, and for which he is no less justly entitled. Augusta, July 24,1853. CIVIS. Weaiher and Crops. Alabama. —The Selma State Sentinel of the 16th inst., says i While passing up the railroad the other day, we were forcibly impressed with the fertility of some farms in the Mulberry valley. The corn on the plantation of Dr. Jones, or rather his “Alabama Guano Bottom,” in Autauga county, was the most promising of any. It was planted on the 9th of May, and is now in full silk and tassel. There is no use for going to South Amer ica for guano, when such bottom lands can be found as those of Dr. Jones. Judging from the very small quantity on board the steamers that pass down the river almost daily, there must be but little cotton at the dif ferent shipping points on the river. The prin cipal business of the steamers that are now ply ing on the Alabama river, seems to be confined to passengers and up freight. The Claiborne (Monroe county) Southerner, of the 16th inst., says: Our town was visited by a heavy thunder storm on Sunday last. The wind blew a gale from the southwest, followed by a drenching, driving rain. Many trees and limbs were fell ed by the swift courser of the air. The strom was not of long duration. More damage than good was effected by it. On Monday and Tuesday copious showers of rain again descended and in the place of the usual quantity of dust at this season of the year, we have been favored with mud. The Eastern Question and the probabili ty of a War. —The New York Mirror, specula ting on European politics, and the latest com plexion of the Eastern question, says : “We still bold to the opinion that there will be no war. The hostile powers will approach, perhaps, within sight of each other ; and nego tiate, possibly, with drawn swords. The pres ence of the English and French fleets will check the movement of the Czar; while the Sultan, not receiving that ‘ aid and comfort’ which he looked for from England and France, will be glad to avoid a conflict with the ‘ Great Bear.’ How ever much it may shock the natural enemies of despotism, we must confess that our private in dignation against Russia has not yet mounted to so high a pitch as we felt, in common with all Christendom, against Turkey, when she bathed her scimitars in the blood of Greece. But there will be no war. The Powers of Europe and the East are too poor to indulge in such an expensive luxury.” The New York Commercial, in an article on the same subject, comes to a similar conclusion. We quote: “Taking all things into consideration, the oft repeated declarations of the two principals, the political condition of Austria, the fact that peace is the policy and no doubt the preference of Eng land, and the spirit of the age, we feel confident that, unless some contingency arises which has not yet cast its shadow before it, the peace of Europe is not likely to be disturbed by actual war on this Russo-Turkish question, however closely the controversy may border upon war. There will be a propitiation devised, even though it be at the eleventh hour.” We have had several refreshing showers since our last issue, and our farmers are now confident of making almost, if not quite, an average crop. We think from piesent prospects the probability is strong that the rats and the weevil will eat some of the dollar a bushel corn.— Buena Vista Vademeiuum, 22 d inst. Paris Fashions. The New York Journal of Commerce has a i letter, dated Paris, June 27, giving the following account of the prevailing fashions in ladies’ dress. We copy it for the information of our readers, to whom, we are pretty confident, noth ing in our paper can be more acceptable: The toilettes most in demand at the present moment are those adapted for the watering places. The style of dress now worn at those fashionable places of summer resort is very bril liant and extravagant. A novelty in robes has recently appeared, very different from anything we have been accustomed to see, and which deserves a description. The silk skirt has seven, eight or nine flounces of graduated shades of the same color, the darkest being placed at the bot tom*of the skirt; the body of this dress is of a lighter shape than the lighest colored flounce.— There are other silks with the same number of flounces, each of which is of a different color; the last flounce, for instance, is violent, the next above is green, and the third grey, and soon; these flounces are trimmed with a ribbon of the same color. The bodies generally worn with these gay skirts are of white muslin. The fa vorite sleeve of the present moment is that styled the Anne of Austria sleeve; this is a double sleeve, the under one of which is white, either muslin, lace, or taffeta; it is almost tight at the shoulder, half wide towards the elbow, and tight at the wrist; the outer sleeve is of the same material as the dress, and is cut straight, wide, and rather short, and is open from the shoulder to the edge, only drawn together in three places, thus showing the white sleeve through the openings. Manv dresses are made of white muslin with seven festooned flounces; also of Louisa blue taffeta with three flounces pinked at the edge, each surmounted by a pink ed ruche. Very short pelisses, ornamented with an abun dance of bows and ruches, have been in great vogue until the last few weeks, when a change has been made in the shape of these graceful gar ments. These mantles are now longer and ful ler, and plaited a la vieille , and are trimmed with three or four flounces of lace. The magnificent black Chantilly lace forms a beautiful decora tion for the pelisses. Black lace points and scarfs are favorite additions to full dress toilettes. Bonnets and caps are literally covered with flow ers; wreathes of light roses made of crape and lace, are formed into caps and head dresses for dinner or evening costume. On tuscan or rice straw bonnets there are placed beautiful jas min tufts of straw and daisies mixed with field flowers. In linen articles there are new bodies, which j serve the same as chemisettes and under bodies; the fronts are of Valenciennes insertions and English embroideries: also Valenciennes lace with muslin bouillons, through which ribbons are run. The Empress collar is made excessive ly wide and rich. This style of collar is only j suitable for ladies who are stout, as it sets off ! from the neck, displays the throat and spreads | over the shoulders. j Jewelry is as much worn at the entertain j ments at watering places, as in the ball rooms of Paris. Many bracelets cover the arms ; corals, j chased gold and enamelled ornaments are in j good taste, even when worn with the morning j costume. . For promenades on the sea-side or in pub ] lie walks, the Eugenia mantilla cars iorms a | pretty and dressy garment. Its shape is low !on the shoulders and rounded in front ; the | width in the midd'e of the back is very j nearly half a yard, and the length varies two yards to two and a quarter. It is gradually •! narrowed towards the ends, which are not j more than eight inches wide and are cut I square. Three rows ot white guipure, four inches wide, sewed on flat, cover this white j silk mantle. A guipure silk braid heads each | row of lace, and, a guipure lace from 12 to 14 inches in width, sewed round the edges, completes this mantle. Sprrutl Hotirri?. To any inquiring what they shall do for a cough and cold, wo would say, read the following certificate, which has been sign ed by one hundred of the first Houses of Druggists in this country, to lay before the public their esti mate of a good medicine They are all men of tho first class and of tho highest character, whose ex perience and business leads them to know, and this is their opinion:— “We tho undorsignod, Wholesale Druggists, having been long acquainted with Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, hereby certify our belief that it is the best and most effectual remedy for Pulmonary Complaints ever offered to the American People. And we would from our knowledge of its composi tion, and extensive usefulness, cordially commend it to the afflicted as worthy their best confidence, and with the firm conviction that it will do for their relief all that medicine can do.” july 26 A Good Comparison.—The Rev. Wil liam Roulatt, a well-kown Methodist clergyman, residing at Naples, draws the following amusing but apt comparison, between Dr. M Lane’s celebrated Vermifuge and a terret: — A ferret, when placed at tho entrance of a rat hole, enters the aperture, travels along the pas sage, scizos upon the rat, exterminates his existence and draws tho animal’s defunct carcass to tho light. And in like manner I have found Dr. M'Lane's American Vermifuge to operate upon worms, those dreadful and dangerous tormentors of children. This remedy, like tho ferot, enters the aperture of the month, travels down the gullet, hunts round tho stomach, lays hold of the worms, shakes the life out of the reptiles, sweeps clean their den, and carries their carcasses clear out of the system. This, at least, has been tho effect of the Vermifuge upen my children.” A neighbor of Mr. Roulatt, Mr. John Briggs, adopts the simile of the reverend certifier, thus both giving their most unequivocal approval of this great specific, after having witnessed its opera tion upon their own children. Let others try jt, and be satisfied. Sold by Haviland, Risley <fc Co., and Wm. 11. Tutt, Augusta, Ga.; P. M. Cohen & Co., Charles ton, S. C.; Hill & Smith, Athens, Ga.; E. C. Jones, Madison; A. A.

We have frequently heard the cele ~ brated German Bitters, sold by Dr. CJ M. Jackson, 120 Arch street Philadelphia, spoken of in torms of tho highest commendation, and we honestly believe that it is one of tho best medicines advertised for tho complaints for which it is recom mended. They arc pleasant to tho taste, and can bo taken under any circumstances by the most de licate stomach. The press far and wide, have uni ted in commending this invaluable remedy for dyspopsia, debility, Ac.; and such are tho healing effects of this panacea, that we hope it may be in troduced to every family where dyspepsia has, or to have a victim. july 19 d6cl iJT Fr< ‘ sh Uongrcsß Water can ajways be had wholesale or retail, at tie Drug Store under the Augusta Hotel. H. G. Farrell's Arabian Liniment.— (&*—This colebrated medicine, skilfully composed as it is of the most healing balsams and penetrating oils, can never fail to cure almost eve ry affliction that could be alleviated by an exter nal remedy. Its superiority over all other Lini ments is proven by tho miraculous cures it performs, and by the great and constantly increasing de mand. There has been sold within tho past year more than THREE MILLIONS OF BOTTLES, and thero can be but few persons found who do not bestow upon it the highest praise for the rare virtues it possesses. Nothing, perhaps, since the creation of the world, has been so successful as an external remedy for all nervous diseases, as this wonderful curative. When applied, it instanta neously diffuses itself through tho whole system, soothing the irritated nerves, allaying tho most intense pains, and creating a most delightful sensa sion. Read the following remarkable cure, which can be attested toby hundreds who were fully ac quainted with the whole circumstance. Chronic Enlargement of the Tonsils. —My daughter, when six months old, was taken with a swelling in the tonsils, which grew larger and lar ger, till when six years old had great difficulty in swallowing her food. Every night watch was kept, fearing she would suffoeato. Tho best doctors),at tended her but could give no relief. I took her to the most eminent doctors in the East; they said there was no help for her but to outgrow it. With a sad heart I returned homo with her, when she became so much worse that the doctors had to be called in again ; they decided that the tonsils must bo cut off, as the only means of giving relief. My wife would not consent to this, and she determined to try your Liniment, which gave relief the very first application, and by a continued use she entire ly recovered. She is now ten years old and fleshy and healthy as could be desired. Your Liniment is also the best in use for sprains, bruises, cuts, burns, headache, etc , and Vt will remove the most severe pain in a few mutes. It also cured caked udder in my cow in a few days. George Ford. Peoria, March 20th 1849. Look out for Counterfeits. —The public are cau tioned against another counterfeit, which has late ly mado its appearance, called W. B-FarrclTs Ara bian Liniment, the most dangerous of all the coun terfeits, because his having the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good faith, without the knov - ledge that a counterfeit exists, and they will, per haps, only discover their error when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil effects.

Farrell, sole inventor and proprietor, and whole sale druggist, No. 17 Main street, Peoria, Illinois, to whom all applications for Agencies must be ad dressed. Be sure you get it with the letters H.

Commercial. Augusta Market—July 27. COTTON.—Wo have been some years in the habit of giving a daily and weekly review of the Augusta Market, but must say tho past week has been the dullest within our recollection, the sales not reaching over fifty bales. Tho fact is, tho stock on hand is principally in the hands of second parties, who evince no disposition to operate Ar thar until they can realize, or the existing state of affairs across the water become more settled. Added to this, the manufacturers in the immediate neighborhood have on hand supplies, which leaves the market in its present torpid condition. There is little or no cotton coming to market, and tho ad vices daily received are of a more favorable char acter as regards the growing crops. But it is too early to form any estimate as to its extent; it will no doubt be much better than expected a few weeks ago, but, at best, must prove a short crop in this section of the country. We omit any thing like quotations, as in the present state of tho market it is impossible to say what a lot would bring were it forced on the market.

The little doing is confined to sup plying small orders from tho country. The m arket continues well supplied with all descriptions of Gro ceries, and most of our merchants are North pre paring for tho fall business. CORN.—Prices have a downward tendency. We have heard of sales this week at 70 cents without sacks and 75 cents with. A lot o( 3000 bushels, | wevily, has been retailing from store at 60 cents per bushel by the one or fifty bushels, but by no greater quantity. Buyers do not seem disposed to give over 70 cents with sacks. Peas are scarce and retailing at §1 a 1 25. BACON.—Su) ply on hand good, and prices, if any thing, easier. Good Tennessee is getting scarce. We have heard of sales this week of about 60,000 lbs. at prices averaging from 8 to 8 j cents. The latter price is now difficult to obtain, unless for small choice lots. Among that sold above was a lot of sides at Bj, and shoulders at 03 cents. There is but little good joint meat in market. WHEAT.—There is a good demand for Wheat, and good Red meets with ready sale at 80 a 90 cents, and prime White at sl.lO a $1.25 per bushel. FLOUR.—Prices have advanced, and we now quote city Mills Superfine at ss} wholesale, and $6 by retail. Denmead’s is selling by the quantity at 53, and retailing at s6l a 0) per bbl.

Sea Is lands, viz: to New York, 1973 bales Upland and 5 do. Sea Island; and to Philadelphia, 34 bales Upland—leaving on hand and on ship-board not cleared, a stock 0f9,298 bales Upland, and 180 do. Sea islands, against 4,886 bales Upland, and 58 do. Sea Islands, at tho same time last year. We have only the sales of 7 bales to report this week, and remarks upon tho operations or feeling in the market are therefore unnecessary. On Friday j the telegraph announced the arrival of the Arabia ; the Liverpool market was reported unchanged, , fair Upland being quoted at 6£d. The sales of the I week had been 50,000 bales, of which speculafors j ! took 9,000, and exporters 6,000. Tho sales at Hav- i )re for the week were 8,000 bales. The prospects , j of a war between Russia and Turkey had caused | some uneasiness in the European markets. ; j A general war in Europe would affect the price I of our great staple, and the foreign news is there j fore looked for with much anxiety. Since our last, the weather has been quite warm, and we have ( ; been favored with frequent showers. The prospect | 1 for the growing crops has consi lerably i nproved in ] j this State, particularly in Middle Georgia, where , ! the drought had been most severely felt. We are having the dull season in fact, as well as in name, ' and during the past week there has been less stir i in our streets than has been noticed in several I years. < Sea Islands. —No sale3kave been reported since i our last issue.

Charleston, July 22. — Cotton. —The market, since our report of tho 15th inst., has been very quiet There was some little inquiry for tho arti cle during the week, but as purchasers claimed a concession holders refused to meet them, and hence the cause of the stagnation that has prevail ed during this period. The transactions in some instances show ayieidingon the part of sellers; but no positive decline can be said to have been es tablished in prices; and 10J a 11c. for Good Mid dling and Middling Fair, which wore tho rates current for these qualities when we made up our former report, may be considered a fair index of the state of tho market at tho close of the present week. Tho transactions may bo summed up as follows, viz: Friday—: Saturday 180; Monday 289; Tues day—; Wednesday—; and Thursday 737—making a total of 1200 bales, at the following prices:—267 at 9;43at 9j ; 116 at 93; 716 at 10J ; and 74 bales at lie. Tho transactions in Long Cotton have been confined to a few lots odds and ends, which we do not think of sufficient consequence to report, Hire. —This article has been very much neglected throughout the week just brought to a close. The receipts comprise 852 tierces, of which about 400 tierces have been sold at extremes ranging from 3j a3 j per hundred. Prices are about the same as previously reported Tho balance of the receipts is being shipped to a foreign port, j Corn. —The prevalence of south-westerly winds for some time back, has kept out arrivals, and wo have never known the stock so completely exhaus ted as at present, and holders, anxious to replenish, have paid high prices for parcels to arrive. In this way, some 14000 bushels Maryland, have been sold at 70 a75 cents per bushel. A cargo comprising about 4000 bushels prime North-Caro lina, sold as high as 81 cents per bushel. treights, — The three vessels reported in our last as loading tor Liverpool, have nearly completed their cargoes at for Cotton in square bags. Tho Now \ ork rate may still be quoted nominally at jfc.lor Cotton per bale, and jo. per tierce for Rico. [Correspondence of the Charleston Courier .] Foreign rJHrkets. Liverpool, July s.—Little variation can be no ticed in our Cotton market since the departure lof the Arabia. The same causes which have ac tuated all classes for the past six weeks remain in full force, with little prospect of immediate change. The political advices from tho East of Europe con tinue of a very dubious and warlike character, and have had a depressing influence an all public se curities, both in this country and France. The last received accounts from America, por Canada, on Sunday, are somewhat conflicting in regard to the prospects for the growing crop, but are universal iu stating it to be backward, and con firming those previously to hand with respect to the deficiency in tho receipts and reduced estimates of the past season's yield, thus curtailing the addition al supply it was expected would find its way to the English markets—has somewhat strengthened the 1 position of holders, and induced a more active in i quiry from tho trado, who have operated pretty . freely, and in excess of their consumption, the bet ter to resist any upward movement the settlement of the Russian question would undoubtedly give ■ rise to. Speculators and exporters have also entered upon extended transactions, notwithstanding which no animation is apparent, and tho inquiry is met by abundant offerings at the same irregularity in prices of the ordinary grades, but some little hard ening in rates of qualities middling and above with staple, which are getting scarce, and to which the demand is more particularly directed. The sales of the three days are estimated at Spec. & Ameri- Bales. Ex’pt. can. Surat?. Eg'pt. Brazil.

The Manchester Goodsmarket remains in tho same inactive stato as last reported. In the Grain trade much excitement has pro- | vailed during the past ten days, and prices of all ; articles are again advanced on the quotations given j in our advices per Arabia. Wheat continues in I active demand at 7s 9d a 8s 3d per bushel of 70 lbs I for white American, and 7s 3d a 7s 6d for red. ! Flour has boon largely dealt in, and realized 27s | 6d a 28sfor Western, and Canadian, and as high j as 28s a 29s for choice brands of Baltimore and j Philadelphia. Indian Corn is more saleable at 31s 1 for yellow and 32s a 32s 6 per quartor for white, j The imports are heavy of all articles. Tho unfavorable stale of the weather and the j rise in the Grain markets have ’ bestired Rice, on: which a lurthor rise has been obtained; but tho | most important part of our transactions was on j speculation. Our market is bare of Carolina Rice. Havre, July 6.—The sales in our Cotton mar ket yesterday were about 1000 bales of all descrip tions. Low grades have somewhat declined, but good descriptions maintain themselves in prices. The demand during the sen night has been mod erate, as our stock is very large, but upon the whole the state of things remain about the same, and money is obtainable at low rates.
