The Court—The Grand Jury Dis charged—One Bill Only Found Against the Commissioners—W. J. Whipper—Terrible Storm, &c. Barnwell C. H., S. C., Sept. 28. The grand jury brought in a true bill against the Board of Commissioners to-day, for official misconduct—ap proving worthless bonds. All other indictments against them have been thrown out by them. Had true bills been found against them, and an im partial trial granted unto them, there is no doubt in the world as to their conviction; but such was not accorded them, and they are still allowed to ad minister the affairs of their office. The grand jury was discharged from ser vice this afternoon, thus putting a ter minus to their annual labors. Many cases of such nature as assault and battery, larceny, rape, &c., have been disposed of, and at the time I write the jury are confined on the Gray’s Cross Roads riot case, which lias occupied the court a day and a half. The trial of Asa Hazel, for the murder of his wife, will probably take place to-mor row. W. J. Whipper, nigger, of Sinking Fund notoriety, is iu attendance at court, and yesterday endeavored to prove that the holding of the court was illegal. After considerable talk in re ference to the matter, his Honor Judge Maher clearly showed to the contrary, and acted accordingly. This distin (juished (?) and honorable (?) son of Africa has openly avowed, so we learn, that at the next session of the South Carolina menagerie he is determined to be elect ed to a .Judgeship—we think he has a preference for the Charleston Circuit. If he should succeed, God help the poor whites, say we, for Whipper is a Radi cal of the most rampant character— Heigh-ho! what a God’s blessing Joe Crews is past and gone ! We learn of a most terrific storm having passed over the neighborhood of Healing Springs, in this county, a few days since, up-rooting trees, blow ing down fences, scattering the cotton, corn, fodder and peas that remained in the fields to parts unknown; thus creat ing much damage and loss to the plan ters in that section.

Such is, however, far from being the case. Cathartics do not touch the liver at all. It is only when in the case of Hostetter’s Stomach itters) the laxative principle is com bined with tonic and stimulative ele ments, that the great secretive gland is directly acted upon. The Bitters, although sufficiently laxative to re lievo the bowels moderately, do not owe their anti-bilious effects to purga tion merely, but to their power of rousing the liver from its inaction and impelling it to secrete and distribute the bile iu sufficient quantities for the purpose of digestion and evacuation. Its effec t upon the stomach and bowels is such as to ensure the regular dis charge of the functions named and prevent abstraction or vitiation of the biliary fluid—in other words, to secure entire co-operation with the liver. sep2l-lwd&w “PHtENix Brand” Pure White Lead.

FINANCE AND TRADE. WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE AU GUSTA MARKETS. Constitution*list Office, I 6 o’clock P. M., September 24,1875. 1 Remarks. Another week of improved business is to be noted, and with it the fulfllment of what we predicted, viz: a more strictly cash sys tem, and a general air’ of hopeiulness among farmers. The trade of Augusta in cotton is certainly increasing, and the other markets are what might be termed "on the fence,” and on our merchants alone de pends an increase or decrease. This year more activity has been apparent in mer chandising circles, and while other cities in this State are exerting all their power to influence trade, they command but little more than must necessarily go to them by i eason of situation and railroad facili ties. Such Is not the case with Au gusta. She now commands a large area of t ado which her superiority over other cities gives her, and much more is within her reach if she will only take the trouble to show her advantages, which we are sor ry to say she does not do. Within the last year the value of real estate has decreased in nearly every city in the State while here it has considerably increased, and if such is the case, when the whole country was depressed, is it anything but reasonable to suppose that with a little increased activ ity and bringing more trade which we can readily command if the proper means are used. The value of the city be largely en hanced, her commercial interests swelled to greater proportions, and the path paved for a gradual prosperity which will defy competition. This is a matter to which the attention of our merchants is seriously called, and it b-hooves them to take the matter in hand immediately, else competitors will slide in and quietly take control, and then it will not be such an easy matter to reclaim what is lost. Property In Savannah has decreased in value within the last year over $350,000, which is astonishing, considering the import ance of Savannah as a cotton mart.— The principal cause may be traced to a decrease In business, and her mer chants are to a more or less degree responsible for it, and, of course, they are the losers. The name of a city abroad, out side of its local limits, gives it tone, and when once it is known as a pushing busi ness place business men flock to it, and this, of course, gives it a stimulus, and when once established on this basis it is not easily demolished. The heavy trade here for the past week justifies us in sup posing that our business will be in volume much larger than last year. The meat market is firm and unchanged, with good stocks. Lard has been firm, but remains un changed. The grain market has been very firm and is advancing. Wheat has been active, and oats in good demand This market is prin cipally the life of the Western trade at E resent, and large quantit es of wheat are eing imported, as the foreign demand is greater than last year—consequently we may look for an ad vance. The New York Tribune, of Monday says: About the only noticeable business indica tion of a favorable character this week is found in the fact that during the past few days the receipts of-grain at the lake ports have been very large, with a more active movement of breadst uffs toward tidewater, especially from Buffalo. If the abundant crops of the West can be set in motion to ward the Atlantic, and prices maintained at such figures as will justify the ship ments of these products to where they are wanted for consumption, such movement may properly be regarden as a hopeful in dication of a return to business activity, which, as a matter of course, would first show itself in the larger receipts of some of our railroad and transportation compa nies, and thence extend its influence to general trade .and liquidation. Flour is firm, with a strict consumptive emand. Hay has advanced slightly. The dry goods market has been very active and the season has almost fully opened out. Fall stocks have been received, and the new styles are very attractive and saleable. Of the New York market, the Bulletin says: The Western jobbers have been operating rather more freely, and a ‘good many or ders were received from that section of the country, which enabled the commission houses to distribute a moderate quantity of assorted merchandise. The jobbing trade has been fairly active with most of the leading houses, arid heavy sales of prints, etc., were effected at low figures. The event of the day was a drive of Gloucester, Hartel, .etc., prints, by Messrs. H. B. Clallin A Cos., at 7%c., who closed out a heavy amount of goods at these figures. The jobbing trade for the week now closed has been fairly satisfac tory on the whole, and the large numbor of buyers now present in the market will doubtless be stimulated into increased ac tion by the cooler weather which has at length arrivod. The Grain Trade. [New York Tribune, 20tli September.] The features of our wheat market the past week have presented many changes; at times holders have had a decided ad vantage under a more active export in quiry and favorable foreign advices; later a change in the character of the English and French advices checked the inquiry, and prices declined, with much irregularity in the sales. Ihe rapid decline in commer cial exchange aud great difficulty experi enced in placing it, exerting a depressing influence. All grades of spring advanced soon after our last 2a3c. per bushel, but subsequently tins was mo e than lost, and a very heavy and unsatisfactory feeling has prevailed; this especially true of soft spring and winter. Very little of the soft winter can be used for milliug. and much of it appears only fit for distilling or for making into starch, and this certainly is a poor market for it, as fully one-half of the old wheat in store is unsound. The quan tity of wheat on our canal is 959,148 bushels,* and on the lakes 1,133,991 bushels, and in warehouses at upper lake ports 1.032,528 bushels, so that the quan- I tity available for export this and the ; first half of the next month is limited. The : movement in wheat at the Northwest is limited, and, with protracted rains there, especially in lowa and Minnesota since the 20th of August, it is very evident we cannot market anything like the quantity we did last j r ear, the crop being three weeks to a mouth later than last season. The course ; of the market in Great Britain and our own ! has been such the past month as to retard rather than stimulate shipments to the sea board, and the season is too far advanced to count on any considerable supplies at the close of navigation. Old winter wheat has been well held, but the supply is limited and for the present quite adequate to the meager demand. The new is so soft that factors find it a very hard task to dispose of it. Since our issue of the 16th of August we have spent some three weeks traveling in the Middle States, and, after a careful examination of the winter wheat crop, we arrive at the conclusion that the product in these States can not be estimated over five-eighths of a crop, of which fully 20 per cent, has been more or less injured, and hence we have a very wide range in prices. Fortunately farmers hold 10 to 25 per cent, of their last crop. The situation of the wheat crop of the world presonts many new and interest ing features not apparent a mouth since, and in most locations, we are sorry to say, they are unfavorable to the crop. The se vere rains at the Northwest, which com menced about the 20th of August and con tinued some 20 days, found fully one-half of the crop iu the shock, and consequently much exposed; now the damage to tnat ex posed is variously estimated, and we think it safe to say that in Minnesota and lowa one quarter of that exposed that would have passed as No. 1 will now inspect No. 3 and rejected; but there is a wide difference of opinion iu regard to the damage, which can only be determined when it comes into the hands of competent inspectors. At Chi cago we find out of 2,100 cars inspected from the 30th of August to the 11th of Sep tember inclusive, 89 cars inspected No. 1. 1 63 cars No. 2, 2,910 cars No. 3, 875 oars re jected, and 54 cars as unsound. This cer tainly is a very unfavorable roturn. The only State in the Northwest that has a good crop is Wisconsin; she secured her crop in good order, and the quality is good, and the average yield to the acre is eighteen bushels; and with an in crease in her acreage of three to four percent., she will have a liberal surplus; but it must be remembered sho holds no old wheat of moment. Iu the Winter wheat States at the West, Michigan is the only State that has a fair crop of wheat. In Great Britain the harvest has progressed slowly; on the Ist of September nearly half the crop was in the field, and we find the estimates of the crop show a wide differ ence of opinion; on the 27th of August the estimates of the probable wants of Groat Britain range from 12,000,000 to 13,000,000 quarters, which is a fearful aggregate; late advices thence allude to the yield in the best wheat growing districts as threshing progress as much below the estimates made from the 24th to the 27th of August, so that time only will demonstrate it. At, present Great Britain holds more wheat at her principal markets on the coast than on the Ist of August, and with 9,500,000 bushels afloat for the United Kingdom, En glish merchants hold off, notwithstanding the situation is so strong for the future; with liberal supplies at hand and known to be afloat they qo not care to anticipate the market, and iiaye as a rule operated from “hand to mouth,” and prices have declined, in which this and continental markets have sympathized. The corn in France is very short, variously estimated by intelligent merchants at 64,000,000 to 86,000,000 hocto liters; this no doubt will approximate tho crop, as it will be remembered that the acreage under wheat wa3 st: *kl last No vember to be 16 per cent 1 short, the same having been devoted fo rye and barley, and it is therefore pl|,in France has no surplus. The idea’ that sho holds a largo supply of old wheat, it seems to us, is extremely improbable, especially when we take into account the fact of her very large importations into Marseilles since February 1, and the large business there for the interior and S uth of France at hardening prices. In Germany the crop is below tho average, with less acreage ana light vield. In Austria the crop is estima ted at five-eighths to thro '-quarters of the average. In Hungary the crop is less than half an average, quality an I yield consid ered. Russia is decidedly i short; in the South sho has produced less than half of a crop; in the North live eighths to three-quarters of a crop; but tiiis estimate is thought to be too high, ltusfia usually exports 50,000,000 : bush.; this year this estimate is placed at r fi.0000,- 000 to *22,000,000 bush.; hence, und.rf these considerations, we regard the fu?r re of wheat as full of interest. The exports from this port since our last ha 4; been 330,770 bush., against 832,600 buch. if |e cor responding week last year; this is i- great falling off, but fails to exert any i 'llluence at Liverpool or London.

[New Y T ork Bulletin, September 21.] So far as actual cotton has been concern ed, buyers have retained all former ad vantages and even made a little further gain; but the previous monotonous down ward tendency on contracts wis checked, and one or two slight pulsations of excite ment shown. Local influences have con tributed largely to fluctuations on the speculative position, the general state of feeling as regard crop, consumption, &c., remaining much the same as last week, though the “bull” side has presented one or two new “points,” which, if not stimu a ting, have in some quarters served to infuse a slightly more cautious spirit and checked pressure. The Bureau report, though as a rule construed favorably, is claimed to show less encouraging features on close inspection; some few storms have actual ly occurred at the South, and the cold weather here guarantees some fears that the more northern portion of the cotton belt may be caught by tho frost. The “bears,” too, have nearly all obtained a good margin for profit, and this, coupled with the previously noted indisposition to rernr. in too largely “short” of the mar-, kot, induced a goodly amount of covering and a consequent reaction whenever the demand became a little sharp. Aside from the speculative manipulations we find everything to have been excessively tame. Exporters handled nothing, the con sumptive demand fell away, and foreign advices were, as a rule, discouraging, and faith in a large and early market crop was unshaken with a large proportion of tho trade. In fact, while the tendency seems to lean strongly toward the belief in a full supply and moderate, cautious consump tion of cotton, the shrinkage on values already established and tho experience of last year have a tendency to prevent the formation of a very extensive “short” in terest. “ Spots ” have been in very little demand, and the cost for the week is fully %e lower, with no great strength shown "at'the de cline. Nothing whatever was called for on foreign account, the small amount of stock required by exporters being secured much more readily at the Southern ports Hiid on bettor terms. Tho spinning demand, too, was very slow and much smaller, the reduction in cost failing entirely to stimu late manufacturers into purchases beyond their most absolute necessities. The main point of depression, however, has been the more liberal offerings of new cotton from pier at rates constantly running %a %o below those nominally ruling on st eks in store. Old cotton was to a certain oxtent most valuable, but desirable selections proving difficult in view of the broken as sortment, buyers gave tho preference to new at the difference In cost. Offerings have been pretty free both hero and to ar rive, and it is intimated that considerable amounts are sure to come forward in time to meet September contracts. For future delivery there has been con siderable irregularity, with at times quite a feverish tone, and on tho whole a some what better state of affairs for tho selling interest than last week. Tho first turn for improvement was obtained on the hints of a strong combination to “corner” Septe li ber, and this month iu consequence at once strengthened. Then came colder weather here, reports of storms at the South and a reduction in the orders to sell, which carried a reaction into tho later months, and infused a more goneial strength into the market, as a general rush to cover took place. The change of tone, however, was almost entirely local, few or ders from the South comiug to hand to take in contracts, and no purchases being made for investment that we could learn of beyond the ordinary operations based on expectations of a quick turn when ever the market becomes unsettled.— Past receipts have continued pretty well up to expectations Ihe crop re port from New Orleans, placing the figures for last season at 3,827,845, will ac cording to previous understanding with the National Exchange, bo accepted as of ficial. We hear little comment, except that some of the “bulls” insist that it is simply absurd to look at these figures and expect the liberal increase of production which will be necessary to bring the present growth up to the aggregate clai tned as sure by so many who seem to have already forgotten last season’s mistakes.
