' » Marvelous Wealth of Sonora. he Santa Fe Gazette, of a late date, j : We had an interesting conversa- 1 i with Major Stein, from Fort Buoh- j n, during his few days’ stay in this H» seems well posted up in the ire of the State of Sonora, The | jments he gives of the amount of ious metals mined there are almost | tlous. He expresses the opinion t Sonora is more prolific of gold and or than California, and. if a Terri of the United States, would yield .000,000 annually. He says he has ; i single lumps of gold taken from j mines there worth from $3,000 to ! 00. He likewise informed us that iad seen a “cord” of silver in bars;, all mined without machinery. , Terrible Accidents , a Tuesday last, says the Montgome- j i 'onfedtratmn of the 2d inst., a white ! 1 , named Griffin, while working in factory at Prattville, Ala., was j ght up by a belt attached to some J | iof the machinery, was drawn un- j' the machine between a belt and * ley, was thrown to the flooring ■ve, and partially drawn through a i til hole through which the band ' sed. There the head was severed in the body, and the lifeless trunk 1 1 to the floor below, while the head .nained above. Nearly all his bones re broken, and his body otherwise rribly mutilated. We understand his j other came to the scene shortly after ] : accident, and that the shock was so j •at as to deprive her of reason, in lich state she remained at last ac ints. Important Postal Decision. —The stmaster General has decided that 'ters received from U. S. vessels can 't be considered ‘ship letters’ under e provisions of the act of March 3, 26, which apply only to letters or ckets carried “in any private ship or ssel.” Such letters, therefore, are ■ argeable only with drop-letter post e, if intended for the delivery at the lice in which they are deposited, and ith the ordinary rates, if forwarded to her offices ; and in neither case is any inpensation to be allowed to the per- j n from whom they are received ■ The Charleston Courier says: Many aders will be pleased with the an ounoement that Dr. F. M. Robertson. f this city, who was compelled, most luctantly, to leave us, and seek resto ition and repose, is recovering his ealth and strength Lieut. Allen.—Lieutenant J. K. Al *n, whose death is announced by the iregon papers, in a late fight with the Indians, was a young and highly meri orious officer. He belongod to the 'finth Infantry, and graduated at West Point, from Illinois, in 1863. He was a native of Tennessee. theFifth instnct. Cols. Ashmore and Vernon are now the only aspirants. Nashville and Mtmphli | To judge by the newspapers in both i cities, the question seems to be which is j the most moral city ? If we were call- ; ed on to express our opinion, we should say it was six of one and half dozen ) of tothcr—and that there is great room 1 : for improvement in both cities, so far I as law, order and morality are concern-I ed. The Memphis Bulletin, speaking of ! ■Nashville “Amusements,” says—“On; ‘the 29th ult., in Nashville, a man] , named Lafayette Goodwin was fatally j stabbed at the Claiborne Machine Works, ! and in the afternoon of the same day, I ] ‘within the brief space of an hour and ! a half, three fights of a violent charac- i | ter occurred at as many different points ■ in tbe city.' On that day there was no one killed in Memphis, and not a single fight of a violent character.’ 1 ! -What a striking contrast in the morals j of the two cities do the above facts ex- j hi bit.” ’ Fulton Superior Court Commenced it session in Atlanta on | 4th inst., His Honor O. A. Bull, presi- j ding. The docket (says the American) I is a heavy one,and will hardly be dispos ed of within the time allotted. The Epidemic.—The fever continues to decline, the Board of Health report ing only sixty-four deaths from yellow fever for the past week, which is pre cisely one-half the number reported two weeks since. We learn, from compe tent medical authority, that the type of ! fever now prevailing is much more man ageable than that preceding the decline. It has, to a great degree, withdrawn from the lower wards, and is now chief ly prevalent in the Neck wards. Should settled weather be vouchsafed us, we shall soon be enabled to chronicle its , entire disappearance.— Charleston Mercu ry, ith inst. Large Cargo.—The steamship Key stone State, from this port for Philadel- j phia, on Saturday last, took the largest j coastwise steamship cargo ever carried ! from Charleston. It consisted of 1464 : bales of cotton, 243 sacks of wheat, 200 | tierces of rice, 61 empty beer barrels, 67 j ; bales of cotton waste, 54 bales of yarn, 36 bags of feathers, 6 bales of moss, 10 I cases of merchandize, and 40 boxes and 1 baskets of different articles. With her ! accustomed regularity, she sailed 1 promptly at the advertised hour. This I fine steamer has established herself as a j prime favorite among our travellers and shippers.— Charleston Mercury, ith inst. The weather continues very warm during the day, our city is dusty and disagreeable, and we have but little present prospect of rain. A fine shower, ; followed by a cool atmosphere, would j add vastly to our comfort and, in all ! ! probability, to the health of the city.— I Savannah Republican, bth inst. : The Slaver Trial.—Boston, Septem |ber2B, —Capt. Townsend, of the Echo, | has been remanded to jail, in default of $5,000 bail, for trial at the October j Term, when the question of jurisdic- I tion will be argued. | Lola Moutz is not a plaguariet, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer, but can write her own lectures. The editor says j he “has seen her set up from a case of ' I type, without copy, the vigorous and I j racy letter in which she so thoroughly j used up an editor who had abused i her." “ How cangeable the wind is,” Baid Mrs. Partington,upon her return from a walk in the city ; “it is the changea blest thing 1 ever did see When I went up Cannon street, it was a blowin’ in my face, and when I turned to go down it went blowin’ on my back !" A waggish friend says,if your wife is everlastingly complaining of being sick just let her catch you kissing the hired ! girl and an instant cure will be effected. } He has tried the experiment,and the re sult was that he has never had to pay a i cent for “help” since. At a fire in Cincinnati, a few days j since, the company of the steam fire engine “Citizens Gift," hitched horses, | imn two squares, laid out 350 feet of | hose, firing up in the meantime, and | put water on the fire in four minutes 1 from the tap of the alarm bell.

The Canadiau papers are urging an international celebration, to be held on the 13th of September, 1859, the one hundredth anniversary of the battle of Quebec, by which the power of France on this continent was extinguished.

A correspondent of the Ohio Culliva- ; , tor, reports that the trial of several va . rieties of wheat sown last year about! ! the middle of September, “on a fine piece of ground on one side of his wheat field," joining which tbe Red Mediter ; ranean gave a product of 36 bushels per acre—one kind, “Gale's Early Flint,” a very early wheat of small growth, > I yielding nearly 35 bushels per acre.— The writer, (Wm. N. Smith, of Huron county,) thinks this wheat will prove valuable when the midge is bad, on ac ; count of its earliness. The “White : Mediterranean, ” a vqpy productive ■ white wheat, of excellent quality, not . so early as the Red Mediterranean, but stands up bettor, yielding over 35 bush els per acre. This was on poorer ground than any other ki«d, but gave an equal product to others on the best soils.— Country Gentleman. September, 1808. The Grade Crop.— Within a radius -of twenty-five miles from Ciucinnati.it is computed there are twenty-five hun dred acres of land devoted to the cul ture of the grape. In favorable seasons the average crop of wine per acre may i be set down at two hundred gallons. - This would be equal to half a million ■ of gallons as the whole crop for the section described. And as the wine is worth, fresh from the press, at least one dollar per gallon, the value of the crop, when good, would amount to $500,000. Tile failure, therefore, of the grape crop, affects very seriously the pecuniary condition of our imme diate rural neighborhood. The crop (his season may be designa ted as almost an entire failure. Some few vineyards will have something of a crop, but, in the aggregate, ail the wine produced will not pay the expen ses of tending the crop.— Ohio Valley . Farmer, September, 1858.

GUIEU, Agent. | ( HP Prof. Wood, 312 Broad way, is ruining the Hair Dye trade. People t will not use dyes when a natural restoration to c the original color of the hair can be produced by natural remedies. Dyes arc artificial agents, and dangerous in tlieir application, but WOOD’S ® HAIR TONIC is a healthy stimulant, and causes ' a healthy growth. A growth of gray hair on a 0 young person’s head is unnatural, and to apply f a coloring fluid produces an unnatural result; r the color is changed, to be sure, but not through the roots of the hair. Ladies, do you see that l 1 geranium plant in the window yonder? how yel low and faded it looks ? It is alive and growing; yet where is the beautiful, rich, dark green that belongs to it? Gone. You can color those leaves c by an external application of chemicals, but b they will not remain colored. Do you desire to do it naturally ? Make a solution of guano water, c apply it to the roots, and the plant will take it up into the system, and then you will see a rich green, permanent hue. Professor Wood’s Hair c Tonic works on the same principle. The roots of the hair drink up that application, and high health and beauty result. Caution .—Beware of worthless imitations, as several are already in tho market, called by riif- 0 fereut names.

As an appetiser it has no equal in the Pharroacopia. Iflongliie and the vigor necessary to its en* i joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of , precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to either . sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing 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 willall find immediateand permanent relief from the use of this incomparable renovator. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible malady. There are many perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu tion that they think themselves beyond the reach lof 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 disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self-de s ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from whatever cause arising, it is, if there is any reli ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly lnfUinbie.

ALEXANDER DEAS, sepfl-im Tax Collector R. C. Jf°A Great 31edici«e for Females.*—'Hundreds of stimulants have been invented and sold, purporting to be specific iu the various diseases and derangements to which the delicate form of woman render her subject. The result of all these stimulants has been to i impart momentary activity to the nervous system , aud false vigor to the muscles; but this relie has been succeeded by a depression and pros tration greater than before ; and the repeated attempts of invalids to build themselves up by these false remedies , have finally ended in de stroying what little vital organization was left. But in using BCERHAVE’S HOLLAND BITTERS, you will flud no such disastrous results. It is a j purely vegetable compound, prepared on strictly cientific principles, after the manner of the cel ebrated Holland Professor, Boekhavk. Under its iufluence, every nerve and muscle receives new strength and vigor, appetite and sleep re turn , and finally, perfect health.

Fowl®—Sir : You are at liberty to use the following statement for the benefit of the af flicted : I was attacked with the Liver Complaint, which apparently brought me to the brink ot the grave. During my sickness I was attended by three physicians in our place, but received no help. I also tried the various remedies re commended for such complaints, but they af 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 ten years. This statement may be relied upon as strictly true. Betsey Perrin. The above certificate was given in the pre sence of Dr. A.
