We had the pleasure of ]musing through the large carriage and buggy repository of Mr. Salomon Cohen, in Savaunah, Ga., a few days ago. His assortment of vehicles is large and varied, his carriages are manu factured by the very best workmen, and made of the very best materials, and he is offering the very Irest bargains ever offered in the city. We would suggest to our readers if they wish to purchase any art i cle in Mr. Cohen’s line that they would do well to call and examine his immense stock, and we vouch for their get t ing a good bar gaiti. A beautiful lot of Columbus .Trans, also Dome - tie Plaid*, aoine new and beautiful color* worthy of special notice, at Bilious. ,1 j lks A Go's. Commission Mmhsal. The advertisement of Col. J. N. Ligl.t foot appears in to-day’s paper. The Colo nel is a man of high character and fine business capacity, energetic and perse vering, and he is fully determined, and will doubtless succeed in building up a fine business. Young men of known in tegrity and perseverance ought to receive the patronage and encouragement of the planters and country merchants, for they arc working for a reputation, and will be much more vigilant than the old men who stand upon their hind feet and boast of the reputation of their house. Remem ber, reader, they made their reputation when young, and now hope to live upon it without expense or energy. The young man will not be satisfied w ith an,, offer short of the highest price. Tho old man, with the energy of his youth, gained the confidence of his patrons; they rely fully upon his integrity and uprightness, but seem to have lost sight of his waning en ergies. We would cdvisc our merchants to transact their business through younger and active business men. Dry Goods, Clothing Shoes, Groceries, Ac.,Ac., at low’priceH, at K.utonh New York Store.

Price SI.OO. read the testimony. I have been a citizen of Memphis for forty-three years. My grandfather deliv ered up his sword to General George Washington. On the 15th day of Novem ber, 1868, I was struck down with Paraly sis, so that I could not move hand nor foot. My right side continued paralyzed, and I could not uee my hand. I procured one bottle of Mansfield & Higbee’s Magic Arnica Liniment and used it; the result is, it has relieved me entirely. I can now Hew, aisd have the perfect use cf my right arm and right side, which were both be fore lifeless. Rachael Taklton, LauderdUle street. Memphis, Sept. 23, 1869. Kitmnn'a Europran Ilouie. While in Savannuh during the present week we made the above named house our home, and while wo do tot speak iu dis paragement of other houses, we hove no hesitancy in saying that it I.*! hot surpassed in any respect) except ih Outside show, by any house in die city. There is nothing the market affords that is not to be found upon his regular hotel table, and no arti cle better prepared at any house in any country. His restaurant is, wo believe, unequaled in the South; no matter what you call for upon his bill of fare, It will be furnished you at short notice, prepared in the most elegant style by very polito and well disciplined servants. His rooms arc neatly furnished and kept iu nice or der. Mr. Hresnan, though an active nd energetic man, is ever genial and kind, making welcome and at home all of his guests. Mr. Downing, the clerk, is al ways nt his post, ever vigilaut in the in t“rests and comfort of the guests, and at all times courteous and polite. We hope when our friends visit Savannah that they will call on Mr. Breanan, where they w ill receive every needed attention and enjoy all luxuries aud comforts for less than half what it will cost nt other places. We have been there and are anxious to go back. See advertisement in another column. Krulfsof Klorldn. Mrs. W. H. Slmrpc, from her new home on Indian river, visiting her mother near Quitman, brought with her a large trunk filled with delicious fruits. Quite a va riety was sent to our office, of which, in connection with the country where they were grown, we intended to write, but we haven't the time nor space this week, but will write an article oil the subject next week. Fully appreciating the present and the enterprising spirit of Mrs. S. in her laudable effort to bring the country of her adoption into notice, we do not regard it as a personal favor, to us, but one of a much higher consideration, an item for the public good, and in that light we es teem it, and in that light we propose to treat it in our next. Our Al>.*•# iit'i'i We have been absent from home almost the entire week,ami many things we intend ed to refer to iii this issue arc necessarily de ferred until the next. We intended to give Joe, of the Madison Recorder, some little at tention, but ha will forgive us, and would, no doubt, be glad if the slight was contin ued; but hi 1 shall have his portion iu due season. \ SpKmlhl Planlnllon for Sftlr ami a Great littitfiiiit OUV’rnl.
