Our New Orleans despatch announces
the receipt of two hales of new cotton , at
that city, yesterday, from Texas. The
first three bales last year from the same
source were received on the 19th day of
August. 'The first hale heard of last
year was received in Richmond, Texas,
on the 7th of August.
The Recent Brllleh Outrages.
Advices from Kingston, Jamacca, re
ceived by the New York Herald , dated
the 26th June, state that the news of
the passage of the resolutions of Con
~ gross, with reference to the British na
val outrages, and of the prompt des
patch of additional United States ves
sels to the Gulf of Mexico, produced a
high state of excitement amongst the
people and officials in that place. When
Commodore Kellett was ordered by
Admiral Stewart to assume the com
mand of the British fleet off Florida, the
feeling was very intense. It was still
aggravated by a report to the effect that
the gunboat Styx had been captured by
the Wabash. Additional information
■was waited for so impatiently as to de
monstrate the great importance which
the English colonists attach to the state
of our international relations with the
mother country. Governor Darling
had made a visit to the Grand Caymans,
and was again at Kingston. The sol
diers of a West India (colored) regiment
at Spanish Town, had made some gross
attacks on the people, who retaliated
and drove them off after two conflicts.
The reports from the mines are very
good. Some refreshing rains had fallen.

A Profitable Business.
At the meeting of the Stockholders
of the Company of Wheeler & Wil
son’s Sewing Machine, held in Bridge
port on Wednesday last, a dividend of
fifty per cent was declared. On the first
of January last, a dividend of twenty
per cent was declared, and a year ago a
dividend of forty per cent. The capi
tal stock is one hundred and sixty
thousand dollars. The stock is now at
a premium of 300 per cent. The Com
pany are now manufucturing, at Bridge
port, fifty machines per day, and keep
250 men in constant employment. They
pay the patentee of one particular com
bination in their machine, ten dollars
for each machine they manufacture.—
The same peculiarity is also adopted in
the Grover & Baker aud the Singer
machines, and the same sum paid the
patentee for the use of the right.
The Late Murder iu Savannah.
’.r, --<> br the Savannah papers that
about forty negroes, engaged in the
iiof W.B.Ciles&Co., have
arrest", on suspicion of being con
cerned in the murder of J. D. Schwink,
on Friday night last. From the evi
dence obtained so far, there is no doubt
but a boy in the gang, named Willis,
committed the deed.
JiT Macon was visited on Friday last
by two thunder storms, accompanined
by heavy rains. One of the old Presby
terian Churches, and a number of trees,
in various portions of the city, were
struck by lightning, but no considerable
damage done.
Memphis. —During the year ending
June 30,1868, 2279 steamboats and 379
flat boats arrived at and departed from
the port of Memphis, Tenn. The ex
ports for the same period amount to
$12,000,000 and the imports to $302,734.

1 i Tions in August. —During the
month of August elections will take
,la. ■ in the following States: In Mis-
Bu irl an the fii st Monday for members of
the Legislature and members of Con
gress ; in Kentucky on the same day
for Clerk to the Court of Appeals, dis
trict judges and county officers. On
the first Thursday, North Carolina votes
for Governor and members of the legis
lature ; upon the latter will devolve the
choice of U. S. Senator to succeed Mr.
Biggs, deceased. Alabama, Texas, Ar
kansas and Tennessee also hold elections
during the month, hut do not this year
cho6e either State officers or members
of Congress.
Atlantic Telegraph.
It appears that the prospect of hav-'
ing a trans-Atlantic telegraph is not to!
he limited by the failure or success of;
the present undertaking. Another com
pany, quite independent of the Atlan
-1 tic Telegraph Company, was organized
in England about a year ago, under the
1 title of the European and American j
Telegraph Company. According to the;
New York Herald, the scheme of this
’ company is to lay down a cable from the
South of England, and another from
Bordeaux, or some adjacent point in
the South of France, to Cape Finis
terre, on the Northwestern coast of
Spain: thence along the Portuguese
- coast, either by land or sea, to Cape
1 Rocca, thence westerly to the Azores,
! and from the Azores to Cape Cod, or
• still nearer to Boston. The approxi
■ mate distances are as follows:
Nautical Miles.
. Lizzard Point, England, to Cape
Finisterre, 460
(From Bordeaux to the same point
3 is 360 miles.)
i Cape Finisterre to Cape Rocca, Por
tugal, 270
' Cape Rocco to Flores, Azores, 1,08
■ Flores toCape Cod, United States, 1,800
J Total, 3,600
t Though the total distance of this line
, would be 3,600 miles from Cape
, Cod to Lizzard Point, near Ply
mouth, England, or ninety miles less to
t Bordeaux, in France, yet, traversing as
s it would, France, Spain, Portugal, and
the Azores, it is claimed that the great
, er business it would do would compen
sate for the greater expense.
Another route, suggested in the
. American Institute, is one in connection
’ with a railroad and telegraph line to j
I the Pacific-to extend that telegraphj
line from San Francisco, up through j
| Oregon and Washington Territories, |
through the British possessions, (by j
Frazer river,) on through the Russian
territory, and across Behrning's Straits
into Eastern Siberia, there to connect j
with a line which the Czar might, ini
' the meantime, have constructed to St.
1 Petersburg.
Thunder Storm in New York.
We learn from the Herald of the 23d,
, that on the morning of the 22d, about
four o’clock, that city was visited by a
severe thunder storm accompained with
a heavy fall of rain, which gave the
city a good washing out. The storm
did but little damage.
Boston was visited with a similar
[
storm on the afternoon of the same
" day. It did but little damage in that
' city, hut in old Cambridge, a Mrs. Mol
-1 lins was instantly killed by lightning,
aud a Miss Elizabeth Beckett, was se
riously injured.

A Hint to Southern Railroads.
A despatch received from Cleveland,
i Ohio, by the New York Herald , dated
r the 22d inst. says:—“The Railroad
. Convention held here last evening deci
-3 ded on making the through passenger
rates from all points the same ashy the
l Erie road, and freights $1 per ton less
i than by the Erie, to take effect on Mon
; day next. The Western roads were not
fully represented.”
Cotton, Flour and other produce can
t now be taken much cheaper from
, Louisville, Cincinnati, New Orleans,
. Nashville or Memphis, to New York or
Boston, than through Charleston or
Savannah, and every day the latcs are
gradually lessening.
•
Burglaries.
A number of burglaries have recently
been committed in Savannah. The Re
publican reports three cases on Friday
night—the store of Palmer & Son, of
W. H. Farrell & Bro. and the shoe
shop of G. Pardee. On yesterday
morning a negro was caught carrying
goods from the store of S. Moses. But
little booty was obtained in either case.
We have had several instances of sim
ilar efforts in Augusta, and resulting in
but little profit to the parties. These
depredations are possibly the work of
the rascals recently run out of Macon
and Atlanta, of whose progress we were
advised by the Macon papers last week. |

ful style, on now materials.
We congratulate brother Hancock on
his new rig, and trust that propitious

Gen. (|uilinan.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Herald , writing under date j
of the 22d instant, says:—“The reports j
spread over the country through the
press that General Quitman died of Na*
tional Hotel disease, is literally humbug,;
if nothing worse. I have ascertained
' as a fact, that General Quitman left the
National the 29th of November, 1856,
three months before any - disease was
known there, and never hoarded at the
hotel afterwards."
f Banking and Savings.—According to
- some statistics published in London, the
f promisory notes payable to bearer in cir
. culation in the United Kingdom, arose
i to the highest amount in December,
s 1849, when they reached £50,678,357,
and the lowest point in September, 1847,
c viz: £32,170,051. The largest amount
'. of gold and bullion held by the bank
•- of England was £21,838,000 in Scptern
£ ber, 1852 ; the lowest £8,778,000 in
r Deccmqer, 1857. The amount of capi
s tal in the Saving Banks was, in 1843,!
£27,177,315; in 1857, £35,103,596.
| IS- The following rules are taken j t
! from a work published many years, '
i since, and as we have not met with them!
i in our exchanges, we conclude that but;
few editors are acquainted with them.
The reader can imagine the consequen
ces, were each individual to adopt them ,
for his own rules of life. W T e give the .
j rules below, the preliminary line gives
! the author.
“ And God spake all these words.”
I.
Thou shall have no other gods hut
me.
n.
, Thou shalt not make to thyself any
' graven image, nor the likeness of any
; thing that is in Heaven above, or iu the
, earth beneath, or in the waters under
the earth : thou shalt not bow down to
’ them nor worship them : for I the
r Lord thy God tm a jealous God, and
. visit the sins of the fathers upon the
children unto the third and fourth gen
eration of them that hate me ; and
■ shew mercy unto thousands of them
j that love me and keep my command-
I ments.
111.
Thou shalt not take the name of the
Lord thy God in vain ; for the Lord will!
* not hold him guiltless that taketli his!
* name in vain.
> IV.
Remember that thou keep holy the j
> Sabbath day. Six days shalt thou la-!
. bor, and do all that thou hast to do; I
. but the seventh day is the Sabbath of
the Lord thy God. In it thou shalt do
no manner of work, thon and thy son,
> and thy daughter, thy man-servant, j
, and thy maid servant, thy cattle, and
j the stranger that is within thy gates.—
For in six days the Lord made Heaven ,
and earth, the sea and all that in them
is, and rested the seventh day : where
fore the Lord blessed the seventh day,
and hallowed it.
V.
, Honor thy father and thy mother,
, that thy days may be long in the land
! which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
VI.
Thou shalt do no murder.
vii. ,:
! Thou shalt not commit adultery.
VIII.
Thou shalt not steal,
i IX.
Thou shalt not bear false witnessjj
against thy neighbor.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's
house, thou shalt not covet thy neigh
bor's wife, nor his servant, nor his f s
maid, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any-),
thing that is his. |

Mississippi Intelligence
The Vicksburg Southron of Saturday
last says :
The Mississippi at this point continues
going down steadily but slowly.
We have nothing later from the up
per streams except the Yazoo, which we
learn was rising very rapidly. The
steamer Ranger reports that at Green
wood the Sunflower was rising at the
rate of an inch an hour. The Tallahat
chie is said to be receding, but is yet
booming high.
The weather was excessively warm,
but a fine rain yesterday evening cooled
the atmosphere and made it more agree
able. :
The Grenada Republican of Saturday i
last has the following : i
Rain enough is reported from many
localities in Carroll county; water
enough from the river bottoms ofTalla- 1
hatcbic ; little more rain is wanted in a
great many localities of Yalobusha.—
Crops, generally, hardly average.
The news from the Tallahatchie
county is distressing. We learn from
friends just from that region, that, the
Tallahatchie river is rising three quar
ters of an inch an hour, and many plan
ters have been compelled to abandon
their plantations in consequence of the
overflow
In the Holly Springs llcarldoi Satur
day last we find the following:
One night this week, some malicous
person entered the house of Mrs. Eads
and attempted to kill her with a club.
Mrs. E. had retired to bed and was in a
sound sleep, out of which she wasarous
ied by heavy blows with saidclub. The
would-be assassin escaped as soon as the
alarm was given.
The Panola Star of the 14th says :
j The corn and cotton crops of Panola

are doing very well; in fact, our plan
ters are much cheered at the prospect.
We traveled the road between here
and Charleston, Tallahatchie county,

than in Panola. Their fields are all clear
of grass and the stalks large and healthy
Wc never saw better crops anywhere.
A C;oo<l One.
A certain lawyer of our city, some
weeks since, attended a Justice court in
a neighboring district, in which a case
that interested him professioually, was
pending. After an elaborate address
| upon a question of law, by which he
considered he had gained the triumph
i over the opposing counsel, a decision
was made by Justice - against
him. This rendered the defeated at
torney exceedingly indignant; so much
so indeed, that he gave audible expres
sion to his thoughts. The able and dig
nified Justice feeling himself greatly
outraged by complaints made in his
presence, remarked, Squire , “es
; you haiu’t satisfied with this here cort,
you kin take yer case to the cort of
: errors. ” Whereupon the attorney
promptly replied, " Please your honor,
1 now consider myself in that court.” —

Attendant infirmities. Loss of appetite and weak

; meat ” writes thus :
WiLTOJf, N. 11., Sept. 10. 1857.
Having had an opportunity to test the value ol
Trof. 0. J. Wood’s Hair Restorative, I am pre
pared to say, that it fully mokes good its recom
mendations. by restoring to more than its orig
inal lustre, hair that has become gray, (r faded
i from age or disease. It will give the hair a soft
and pliable texture, and what is of still greater
, importance than that, it is restored to health :
it imparts to the wl ole system its renovnti »g,
1 healing properties, and has a tendency to restore
! health and prolong life, and give to the aged the
appearance of youth. Its unequalled properties
; ought to recommend it to every family. Try it,
ye who labor under any disease of the nead, and
| you will never have to regret its application.
! Caution.—Beware of worthless imitations, as
(several are already in the market, called by dif
ferent names. Use none unless the words (Pro
fessor Wood's Hair Restorative. Repot St I-ouis,
Mo., and Now York), are blown in the bottle

fIT U is not generally con
ceded that Liver Ompluint. or a deranged state
\ of the liven, is the cause of most of the summer
and bowel complaints that visit us during this
season of the year.
Yet some of our first Physicians consider the
. Lirer the principal cause of these diseases, or in
other words, when it peiforms its functions
properly it enables the system to resist or throw
i off diseases of the stomach and bowels, and
where they are deranged the surest cure is to
cure the Liver of its disease and cause it to per
form its proper functions. There is nothing in
j the whole world that so quickly stimulates the
, Liver to a proper performance of its functions as
1 DR. SANFORD’S LIVER INVIGORATOR, which
almost instantly checks Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
any complaints of the bowels.
The Invigorator acts as a gentle cathartic, yet
it checks all looseness of the bowels from the
1 lime it is taken till the regular operation of the
j medicine, some eighteen hours alter, when the
I cause of the complaint is removed, the Liver is
invigorated, and health soon follows. The In
vigorator may bo taken with perfect safety in
all cases of Dysentery, as it has been tried and
, used for years lor such complaints by a largely
practicing physician. jlyß-lm
HTTIie Great Problem
Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
; has lost the power of duly converting food into a
life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
iluid re acquires its solventpower, aud the crude
’ nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while h:s digestive organization was
j paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
j basis of activity, strength and health.
1 The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
! acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
i rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
1 paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
ten iblelassitude which proceeds from a lack of
' nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arising from the unnatural condition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
-1 ery member with the source of sensation, mo
| lion and thought—derives immedi-te benefit
from the use of this Cordial, which at once cal ms.
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
j organization.
j Females who have tried it are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
| woman has ever received from the ha’ ds of
i medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite.
While it renews the strength of the digestive
; powers it creates a desire for the solid material
| which is to he subjected to their action. As. ar
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
t If long life and the vigor necessary to its en-
I joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
■ predous worth
1 Its beneficial effects are not confined to cither
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing
I wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
' man of business, the victim of nervous depres
i sion, the individual suffering from general de
, bility or from the weakness of a single organ
willall find immediate and permanent rein f from
the use of this incomparable mr»vator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete aud unfailing safe guard
against that terrible m dady. There are mmy
, perhaps who have so trilled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
l of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
' Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
the di order itself, but rebuild the broken con
; i atitutlon
