We have had a prospect of rain (which is much needed,) for the past twenty four hours, but have only been favored with a sprinkle. The prospect still con tinues good, and we hope, will be rea lized, for the want is almost insupport able. Mr. Lucibn La Taste, formerly of the Houghton Institute in this city, re rently dcliverd a leccure on the subject of education at LnFayette, Ala. His chief object appeared to be to prove the superiority of Mourns' grammar over all other systems. The Chambers Tribune, referring to the lecture, says : mp “ The Professor occupied near two * hours in the delivery of his lecture, and during the whole time he was listened to with marked attention. In the course of his remarks, he threw out many good hints to parents and teachers, and his lecture was characterized throughout by that practical good sense for which the speaker is noted. We think we hazard nothing in saying that Prof. LaTaste pointed out, to the minds of many pre sent, some very material errors in the old systems of English grammar now in use. We see by the Citizen that Mr. La- Taste proposes to visit Macon shortly, for the purpose of organizing a class for instruction in Mourns' System of Eng lish Grammar, provided the prospect of success will justify his visit. * • Noble Donation. Under this heading, we find the fol lowing acknowledgment in the Charles ton Courier of yesterday. This is the second donation sent by the Young Men’s Christian Association, for the re- 1 lief of the suffering in our sister city, and those of New Orleans—the amount sent the latter, we believe was ssoo.—■ It is a noble institution, and when they make an appeal to our citizens it is promptly responded to. Long may they hold together as a body for mutual re ligious benefit, and may their praise- j worthy exertions in behalf of the afflic- [ ted, always meet a warm and ready re sponce from our citizens. [/Vo/n the Charleston Courier, 11/A ins/.] Noble Donation.— Our absent asso ciate will learn, with sincere gratifica- i tion, as shown by the subjoined letter, I that he lias been selected as the me- | diutn of transmitting to the Howard ; Association, of this city, the generous donation of $1032.58, benevolently con tributed by the Young Men's Christian Association of Augusta, Ga., for the benefit of the sufferers here by the pre vailing epidemic. Such a substantial | and speaking manifestation of sympa- ! thy with our affliction, on the part of our sister city, is refreshing to the heart, and challenges the warmest expression I of grateful feeling. This donation would have been ac knoweledged earlier but for the absence of one of the editors to whom jt was addressed individually : Augusta, October 5, 1858. Richard Yeadon, flsq., Charleston: Dear Sie : —Enclosed please find a check on the Bank of Charleston for one thousand and thirty-two 68-100 dollars, in behalf of the citizens of Augusta, collected through a joint com mittee of the Young Men's Christian Association and the City Council, for the benefit of the suffering poor of your city. Do me the kindness to hand it to the President of the Howard Association, and ask him to accept it, and with it our earnest wish that the scourge that now afflicts your devoted city may be very speedily removed. I am, dear sir, yourobd't servant, Wm. H. Terr. .Since the above was in type, we have received the following communication from the Chairman of the Young Men's Christian Association and Committee of the City Council. Me. Ewtok:—Thinking that it would be agreeable for the citizens to know the amount given by each Ward, for the relief of Charleston, I annex a statement : First Ward, : SIOO 00 Second 250 58 Third 500 00 Fourth 182 00 $1,032 38 The Committee cannot close their la bors without acknowledging the general j kind and courteous manner with which j they were received, and the prompt and free response that their solicitations : met with. Very respectfully, W. H. Turr, Ch’mn Y. M. C. A. and City Council Committee. } George J. Enslerbrook. We regret to learn by the Norfolk I papers, that this gentleman,well known | to the typographical profession of this city, and Savannah, died J in that city on the 7th inst. in the 28th year of his age. He died of Brain ! Fever. New Advertisements. Clarke & Co.—We would call the [ attention of the ladies, citizens, and interior merchants to the advertisement of this firm, in this day's paper. It is j one of the oldest jewelry establishments in this city, and the former reputation of the house is well kept up by the pre sent proprietors. They have on hand,i one of the largest, richest, and best se- j leoted stocks of watches, jewelry, silver . and plated ware, fancy articles, &c., that can be found South, and they are satis- [ fled with quick sales and moderate pro- [ Jits. Ws never think of this house 1 but we have to recur to the old times , whtn we were poor. Sometimes we had money to pay, and knew not where to raise it; we would look over our books, there it was in black and white , but not available. But we had to raide it by t hook and crook, and after we got “ through, the melancholy thought of replacing it, would dampen our spirits. On such occasions, bciug something of a philosopher, wo used to visit Clark's i store, look over his splendid goods, . imagine them all ours, and after leav- I ing, felt much better. We know not . if our readers can do the same, but if . they have money in their pockets, and . wish to treat themselves or somo fair friend, if they visit Clark’s they will comeaway well satisfied with their pur i chases. \. La-Taste.—We would call atten J tion to the advertisement of Mr. V. La i Taste in this day’s paper. In addition I to his large and well assorted stock of , choice garden and field seeds, it will be seen he has made a direct importa > tion from Paris of choice garden and I flower seeds, to which he invites atten , tion. I Dancing.—Professor Biggs’ Dancing | Academy, it will be seen, is now open , at Masonic Hall. I [communicated] Water, Water, More Water! Mr. Eoitor A writer in the Consti tutionalist of yesterday, directing the pub* • lie mind to Judge King’s springs, bet ter known as Bugg’s spring, (being a pSrt of the head waters of Cupboard . creek, where a bountiful supply of pure water may easily be procurred for the use of our city,) deserves the thanks of our thirsty citizens just now suffoca ting with the dust from our streets The matter of conducting water from the source designated will appear most feasible at first sight to any practical | man. To obtain a supply for all neces sary purposes, laying the dust in particular, the copious stream from the spring of Mr. McLaws, being quite accessible should be brought under consideration. The water from the two springs may be easily concentrated to a point near the residence of Mr. Sayre, by ordinary ditching, to be conducted into pipes to 1 ! run parallel with the Georgia Railroad |to the city. By the use of machinery itcan be easily forced up toany level that may be required to satisfy the wants of of our people. o e « I October, 11th 1858. Rev. J. R. Graves. This individual, somewhat notorious 1 as the Editor of Tennessee Baptist, and ! author of the “ Great Iron Wheel, ” is in trouble with his church at Nashville. - Charges have lieen made against him j reflecting upon his Christian character, j and he is to be tried to day. [communicated.] tie Bow’s Review. Mr. Kditor :—l respectfully ask for a brief space in your columns to solicit public attention to the merits of the publication, the name of which is placed at the head of this article; and Ido so witli the greater pleasure, as Professor Stueckrath, who is associated with Mr. Deßow in the conduct of the Review, is now in our city, and will be pleased to take tlie names of such of our citizens as may desire to subscribe to it. Hav- , ing long been a reader of this work, the writer can but express his surprise that it lias not been more extensively patronised in this city and immediate section. Whatever is most radically important to the South, either in de fence of her peculiar structure of so ciety, or tlie development of her re- I sources and interests in agriculture, manufactures, commerce, education, in ternal improvements, &e., is advocated in this Revietv with an ability and prac ticalness unexcelled, and, I think, un equalled in any similar work in this country or Europe. No question is more vitally important to the South than that of African slavery. Much has been written on this subject by pub licists and pamphleteers for and against the institution ; but nowhere, in all the , range of thought and fulness of expo sition, can its true nature, its moral, social, and political merits be found more philsophically expounded than in the pages of this Review. In it are found facts as opposed to dogmas, ex perience opposed to theories ; and the institution stands out boldly and tri umphantly vindicated against the puerilities and rickety sophisms of its deadly foes. The Revieie is emphatical- , ly the herald of an age of progress in public sentiment favorable to the pecu liar institution of our beloved section. [ The specialities of negro slavery are so , | truthfully portrayed that the minds of i the more skeptical are made to see, as ' jby demonstration, that whatever most | | utilises the negro is best for him and , the white man; that the normal rela | tion of the negro is subordination to [the white man ; that negro labor is es i sential to southern and tropical civiliza j tion. ! Tlie Review is not confined to the in- : j terests of tlie South ; while they are [ primarily prominent, no interest in any [section is overlooked, and all aro so brought into view that the statesman, j the merchant, the mechanic—indeed, [all classes of intelligent citizens can see, as if from a lofty summit, the great progress of social, commercial and po ! litical events. f The October is a splendid number o the Review. The contributions aro rich, 'full of useful thought, and clothed in elegant diction. Editorials are pleas ! ing and instructive. Time, Inoney by thousands, patriotism, lovo of section , j and country, all are expended upon this 1 1 work. Will not our people fester it by their substantial patronage ? No better [opportunity can present itself than the [present. Profe-sor Stueckrath is in the , city, to receive and receipt for subscrip tions. It is pleasing to know, that in ( encouraging this work, we can aid in I strengthening the rights of the South , | without drawing the sword, and build- 1 [ing up southern prosperity without be [ing inimical to the general good of the , (Union of States. Patriotism, j A Fireman. Look at the hero, Carr, of Cincinnati, who mounted the ladder, and forced his way through ra -1 giug flames and blinding smoke, until , he bore out a mother in bis arms.— Again he plunged into the fiery abyss and brought a child ; again another child. There is no such a hero as that man on military record. He is worth all the heroes that stormed the Mala koff. The firemen of Ohio should raise a monument to his famo. But then he 1 didn't kill anybody, he only saved a i wife and two children.” The weather is now quite cool.

I have seen and inspected not only their Books, which are wel kept, be* the Assets under the heads of Cash on hand, Bills Receivable, and Stock Notes, nnd feel safe in reporting *o you that the four items of “ Cash on hand and iu the hands of Agents,” **Utb settled Premiums.” ‘-Bills Receivable,” and “Stock Notes,’’ amounting to $93,868, are grMAtttinEH and available to the Company lor that amount, or neariy that amount. I have taken some pa®/* to ascertain the value of Stocks held by the Compauy, having visited the several Companies Jhl conversed fully ami freely with their respective ortlcers. J The buildiug belougmg to the Company, on the turner of Walnut and Fourth streets, is a vJH fine free stone building, well built, and admiral.ly arranged ; its location is one of the business purposes in Philadelphia. I have- ailed up. u the g.utlemeu who built it the Company, who informed tm- that it cost him over S7O, cash. I think this prdM be a good investment at $75,000. The Real Estate Mortgages contained in the statement of the Company, are all good for amount stated, and cover property worth ai least fifty per cent, more than the amount for which wi they are mortgaged. From this statement, it will be seen that this Company should receive your Certificate. sire io add that the Company seems to be intelligently and prudently managed, and I find that enjoys the full confidence of the business men of Philadelphia. • Signed, L.
