Take green corn carefully shelled,
peas, and beans in pods and dip them
in boiling water, and then carefully dry
them in a room where there is a .free cir

The Western Hog Trade. —The Louis

We hear of few transactions in hogs i
in this State for a few days, there be- j
ing a stand off between buyers and sel-1
lers. Out West hogs are offered freelyj
at low figures. A house in this city l
was offered twenty thousand dollars by i
telegraph, on Thursday, at two eligible;
packing points on the Upper Mississippi i
river, at 4 1-2 cts. net; and we hear of 1
a purchase at desirable points in Indiana ■
of five thousand head at 5 cents net.!
We understand that Messrs. Quingley j
& Co., of Bowling Green, Ky., have
contracted for some twenty-two thous
and head to be packed there this winter
at 5 cents net. It is estimated that full
30,000 head will be packed at that point
this season.

Cotton Receipts.— Seldom has the
history of the cotton market of this ci
ty exhibited so large receipts for the
month of September as now. The cot
ton is flowing in from all directions,run
ning up the daily receipts frequently to
a thousand bales. This may be owing
to the tine prices paid by the buyers,
the rust ripening the cotton, the fine
weather for picking or the large quanti
ty made this year. From our exchanges,
however, we gather that the crop is a
short one, and the large receipts are ow
ing to the other causes above mention
ed. We cannot tell how long the mar
ket will continue to present induce
ments for the farmer to sell. Certain
it is there is no good reason for storing
his cotton, when it is commanding the
present prices .—Columbia Times, -til in

The Vintage in France. —Ail the ac
counts from France concur in stating
that the grape disease is passing very
lightly over the vineyards, and that
there will he an early and abundant
vintage. In confirmation of this.it isj
stated that empty casks are selling;
throughout the vine growing region at i
exorbitantly high prices. The tine ap
pearanceof the vineyards and the im
mense stock in the bonded stores of
I’aris, have paralyzed the efforts of spec
ulators for a rise in prices.
A Whole Town Reformed. —The town
of Troy, Mo., had been long noted for!
its abounding wickedness, and drunken- j
ness, gambling, hgthing and Sabbath
breaking, had held undisputed sway, 1
until the first Sunday in last May, when
a protracted meeting was commenced
in a Presbyterian church, which result
ed in the hopeful conversion of nearly
70 persons, induing some of the most
hardened characters in the place. ‘
Jim Lane Whipped.— Jim Lane, of!
Kansas, lias been wtiipped, as we learn;
by the St. Joseph papers. The whip- j
ping was done by a lawyer named Quig-!
ley, and occurred in one of the border
towns of Kansas. Lane was dissatisfied .
with the thrashing and sent a chal
lenge to Quigley. It was accepted and
a duel was expected.

Tranquil Hill, a. 1
Editor of the Dispatch l beg a small
space in your widely circulated journal,
simply toask a question. Why is it
that we Georgians remain idle, and in
differen spectators of the rivalry be
tween Savannah and Charleston. They
| are the only Atlantic ports of any con
sequence in the cotton States, and for
‘ that reason, we should be interested in
all that concerns their welfair, hut Sa
vannah is in Georgia, and Charleston
in South Carolina, and for that reason
we are most interested in all that con
cerns the welfare of the former. Our
motto in this, as in other respects, is
in the South, and for the South—in
I Georgia and for Georgia.” We arej
gratified at the evidences of the increas
ing prosperity of Charleston, and we
! hope that she may soon realize the best
! wishes of her people, but in a rivalry
I I between her and our own sea port, of
* course we are with the latter. Apart,
! however, from all State pride in the
! matter, we, in this section, have other
; causes of interest in the growth and
prosperity of Savannah. All the citties
of Georgia, are now connected with
that city by a continuous Railroad com
munication, and in the ordinary busi
ness relations of the cities, Savannah
and all the cities in our State, should
become better acquainted, and more
identified in interest, Nature has done
greatly more for Savannah than Charles
ton, and as soon as her people become
aroused to a proper sense of what is due
from them,and to them, by the commerce
of the country, the question of rival
. j ry will very easily be decided in her favor.
!In fact, that rivalry now only exists by
’ reason of the singular blindness or in
'! difference on the part of the people of
1 : Savannah, to their own interests and
| capacities. In energy and enterprise,
; they have always been behind their
'! Charleston neighbors, and in spite of
I j their pre-eminent natural advantages,
■ unless they awake on the subject of
what they can do, and ought to do,
they will forever find themselves be
hind, in importance and prosperity. A 1
glance at the relative positions of the
two places on the maps of the States of
South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee and
Alabama, must at once satisfy every
one, that in point of favorable location,
every advantage is on the side of Savan- j
. nah. Take, for instance, the city of
Atlanta, the point at which the Rail-1
roads connecting upper Georgia with;
these seaports unite, which is 292 miles
from Savannah and 307 miles from
I Charleston, showing a difference in the!
distance in favor of Savannah, of fif
teen miles. To the trade of that place,
, therefore, and also to the commerce of
I all that section of country which reach
!es the Atlantic through that place,
I I Savannah is the most accessible market,
j All points North-west and South of At
lanta, will naturally trade at Savannah,
, provided the mercantile facilities of
i that city are as great as at Charleston.
jln other words, the grains and provis
i ions of Northern Georgia, North-eas
■! tern Alabama and Tennessee, and six
,! tenths of the cotton region of our own
| State, will find their way to that point,
I unless its advantages from position are
.; counterbalanced by a want of energy,:
enterprise and accommodation on the
; i part of her people. That such will be j
the fact in future, is best demonstrated
by facts in the past.
.; As to the ability of Savannah to
-1 maintain the superiority, there are no
3 j good grounds of apprehension. She
. | may not, indeed does not, possess the
o ; same amount of capital, hut capital has
4 J never yet failed to accompany superior
jj energy, attended by superior natural
- ! advantages, and it will be as readily
>j commanded at Savannah as at Charles
' j ton, when the trade of the place shall
. demand it. Some advantage has been
- claimed for Charleston in the alleged
’ superiority of her harbor. Even this!
»j advantage is infounded. The records
ejof the Navy Depaitment, according to
‘; a writer in No. 3, vol. 8, of Deßow’s
Commercial Review,' “ Shows that there
is no superiority in this respect, hut the
, reverse —and it is certain that as large
r ships load at Savannah as at Charles
* ton.” He goes on to say; “Our Brit
, ish timber ships load, often, to nineteen
; feet, and no vessel yet ever crossed
! Charleston bar drawing seventeen feet.”
|The merchants of Savannah have it in;
their power, therefore, to command and
retain the Atlantic trade of Georgia,
upper Alabama and Tennessee, and at
once by that means become the largest
commercial emporium of the Southern
j Atlantic States. Let these hasty sug
jgestions have a fair hearing—with some
others we may have occasion to throw
| out. Vienna. J

i the severest form of mental derange
; merit. Lately it has been necessary to
keep him in the closest confinement.—j
| But little hope is now entertained that
his reason w ill ever be fully restored.—

Annual Session of the Griuili Lodge
of the Hutted States, I. O. O. P.
The regular annual session of this
body commenced yesterday morning at
the ball of the Order, on Gay street,
Grand Sire Geo. W Race, of Louisiana,
in the chair, and all the remaining offi
cers present, except D. G. Sire Scnter,
who is expected to-day. The session
having been opened for business, an al
lotment of seats to the representatives
present took place, when a committee
on credentials was appointed and re
ported—their leport showing that every
State and Territory was represented, as
also Canada and the Sandwich Islands.
After the reading of the report, the
Grand Lodge took a recess for the pur
pose of “lunching” at the Holliday
street saloon of Mr. James Mills, where
a lunch will be daily served for them at

. South Carolina. —This State also re
turns a diminished list of membership,

Teetotallsm In America.
A German writer, M. Grissinger, who
has recently visited the United States,
says :
) “ The temperance mania is most at
J home in the Northern States, for the
) clergy have thorougly frightened the
farmers into it. They mean it honest
ly enough! If you visit one of them,
j you find nothing but water on the ta
ble—water for breakfast, dinner and
) supper. After staying a few days, and
) becoming known to the family, the son
. will first take you on one side. He will
lead you into the stable, and express his
opinion that a dram would do no hurt
such a cold morning ; but you must not
say anything to father or mother. Af
ter dinner, the house mother will take
you by the arm, and lead you into her
\ sanctuary, and, behind a clothes press,
) she will open a secret door, and produce
. a nice bottle of the real sort, from
which she will give you some ‘stomach
* drops.’ She thinks, though, that fa
r ther and son need know nothing of
1 these drops. Last of all, after supper,
;i your host will conduct you into hisstu
. dy, and, from one of his bottles in a
_ medicine chest, will pour you out a
glass, the best of the three; but you do
i not drink it as brandy, but as a medi<*
J cine. He, too, warns you to keep the
. secret to yourself.”
t!
Sense.—A rough common sense pre j
’ vades the following in which there is
r certainly more truth than poetry :
f “Great men never swell. It is only
. tliree-cent individuals who are salaried
» at the rate of two hundred dollars a
. year and dineon potatos and dried her-1
f ring, who put on airs and flashy waist-1
, coats, swell, p iff, biow, and endeavor
* to give themselves a consequential ap-'
» pearance. No discriminating person |
. can ever mistake the spurious for the j
, genuine article. The difference be- j
. tween the two is as great as that be-,
tween a bottle of vinegar and a bottle
of the pure juice of the grape.’*
r King Charles the Simple and iiis
Fool.—This good fellow’s influence was
: so great that Charles, king of France,
once remarked to him he thought they
* had better change places. As Jean did
not look well pleased at the proposal,
Charles asked him if he were not con
tent at the idea ot being a king. “Oh,
- content enough,” was the reply ; “ but
* I should be exceedingly ashamed at
I j having such a fool.” It was this fool
i who once tried his master’s nerve by
•! rushing into his room, one morning,
; with the exclamation, “Oh, sire, such
; news! four thousand men have risen in
. the city !” “What,” cried the startled
I I king, “with what intention have they
. j risen?” “Well,” said Jean, placing
5 his finger upon his nose, “probably
1 with the intention of lyiug down again
at bedtime.”

I i»"T lie Great Problem '
1 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
fluid re acquires its solventpower, and thecrude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while his digestive organitat'.on was
paralysed and unstrung, becomes, under the
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
I or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
rors, wakened by periodical Its, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited hy that
terriblelassitude which proceeds from a lack of ]
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arisingfrom the unnatural condition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
tion and thouglit-derivos immediate bcnclit

invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
#r Fema!e3°who have tried It are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that ,
woman has ever received from, the hards of
medical men. . .
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, lin
. mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite j
While it renews the strength of the digestive
powers it creates a desire for the solid material
which is to be subjected to their action. As an ,
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en- ’
joymeut are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
precious worth „ . 4 ... 1
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the a.ling
1 wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general de
bility or from the weakness of a single organ ■
will all find immediateand permanent relief from
the use of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it i
will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard
against that terrible m ilady. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu-
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach t
of medicine. Let not even those despair, The i
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
ference to the causes, and will not only remove |
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con- j

; Honksimle Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—Mr.
; Seth W. Fowls—Sir : You are at liberty to use
| the following statement for the benefit of the as
! liicted :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink of
! the grave. During my sickness I was attended j,
! by three physicians in our place, but received
no help. 1 also tried the various remedies re- j *
commended for such complaints, but they as- j
forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored
to better health than I have enjoyed before for I
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
| as strictly true. Betset Perrin.
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of IV. A. Strong, of Houesdale, who is well
known in his vicinity as a successful practitioner.

i!T Cure t lie Li*er.--There is ,
an article selling throughout the country that I (
has attained the widest, celebrity ever known as j 1
a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
once to DR. SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR, OR
LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures al- j 1
most too great to believe, were it not for the un- ;
doubted evidence that accompany the testimo- i
nials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known
for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debility j
that so often baffles the skill of our most eminent
physicians. I
Dr. Sanford has been for a longtime one of the
j eminent physicians of New' York, and it is said,
| most of his cases were treated with the Invigo- .
j rator with such invariable success that he has
I beeu induced to offer it as a family medicine, and
let the world have the benefit of his discovery.
If those who are troubled with debility, head
ache, languor, or slow, lingering fever, will try
a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.—
