It would not be a bad idea to make a negro colony of “little Carrie.” She got ns into the trouble, contrary to our wishes. Let Jier little potaloe patch Ire colonized with the Africau.— Atlanta Daily Opinion 29th ultimo. What would not be a “bad idea” tor South Carolina, would not, we presume, be a “bad idea” for Georgia with any one capable of utter ing or publ.shing a sentiment so repugnant to humanity and Christian civilization, us that em braced in the foregoing comments of the “Opinion" upon an event which radical suprem acy and negro domina'ion will doubtless lender certain. Not Tliad. Stevens in all ids bate of the South; not Wendell Phillips with all his fanaticism ; not Garrison with all his mad zeal in the cause of abolition ; not Congress in all its oppressive enactments against the South ; not tire Republican Party itself iu any ot its declara tions or multiplied platforms; not any of these nor from any other source, have we ever se n or ever heard uttered, a sentimeut so repuguaut to humanity. Who can doubt that the man or men who would BUggest the conversion ot “little” Carolina into a colony of Africans, would hesi tate, if within his, or their, power, to convert, Georgia, with her more extended territory, into a similar colony ? Such gloating over the mis fortunes of a gallant State and a patriotic people is unworthy that which bears the impress of a man.. It is fiendish, and as such will be viewed even in the Radical North. If South Carolina did get us “into the trouble,” Georgia and the other Southern States could have got us out of it had they pleased; but they did not please to do so, aud hence it is most unmanly now to taunt that State, and gloat over the sufferings of her gallant peo ple as the “Atlanta Opinion" does. If she did Bring about “the trouble,” she displayed no craven spirit during it* existence, aud only sur rendered when the South, the whole South, yielded up the contest. What she endured, and what she has suffered, ought to save her lrom the reproach the “Opinion” has thought proper to cast upon her. On tDe Lincoln National Monument- Council Proceeding*. The late hour at which we received, on Satur day evening last, a copy of the official proceed ings of Council on the precediug night, prevent ed any notice, on our part, of the Committee’s Report on the memorial of the so called “Lin coln National Monument Association,” aud the action ot the Council thereon. We make, there fore, brief allusion to it now, prefacing to what we shall say, the Report itself and the vote by which that most extraordinary document was adopted. Extract from the Proceedings of Council, Septem ber 27,1S67. The Special Committee to whom was referred the memorial of the Lincoln National Monument Association, at last meeting, submitted the fol lowing report, viz; Hon. Mayor and Council : Your Special Committee, to whom was refer red the petition of the Lincoln National Monu ment Association, respectfully recommend the city to appropriate ten acres ot land tor the use ot the Association, and for a City Park, so soon as the Mayor and Council shall be satisfied of the ability'of the Association to carry out in good faith the erection of the monument, and the im , provementof the grounds in accordance with S repress. t'.ie scale of expenditure, viz: seven hundred and fifty thousand to one million of dollars, pro posed in the verbal statement made to the Coun- etl by J. L. Dunning, President of the Associa tion." Respectfully, Attention! Merchants. Now that commercial circles are pulsating with that quickened activity incident to the au tumn trade, it is simply folly in our dealers not to awake to the importance of attracting trade to Atlanta hv a liberal and judicious system of advertising. The man of business, be that busi ness what it may, is anxious that the public should know of it. It is to his interest that the public should know of it, for it is to that public lie looks for patronage. In this age, the news- paper is the great medium through which the man of business communicates to the public bis peculiar avocation and his location. For in stance, a merchant establishes himself at some center of trade, opens his house, displays and of fers his merchandise for sale. Now, it is but reasonable to suppose the greater his chances of success the more extensively his business and lo cality are known to the public. The widely cir culated journal, then, furnishes the best medium through which to commanicate to the public. To nil classes, then, we say that Tiie Intel ligencer is auxious to serve you, and itself, too, by heralding your wares aud merchandize to the country at large. Our prosperity is to a very large extent dependent upon you, and we pro pose to assist you very materially by letting country merchants, and others, know that you have goods, the kind of goods you have, how cheaply you can sell them; and, in short, to proclaim the inducements we know you are able to ofTer to all who will come to this city as pur chasers of dry goods, groceries, provisions, hard ware, crockery, furniture, or tobacco, as well as the thousand and one other things known to commerce. Atlanta promises to become the centre <>1 trade—the commercial emporium of Georgia. It is here that the planter may come to dispose of his products, and make the neces sary purchases for farm use; and before be comes, he wishes to know something of business houses, their stock in trade, and their particular locality. These are important items. They not only concern the planter, but also the merchant. It is certainly to the interest of the merchant that the customer in the market should know of his business and locality, especially in a large city where there is so much competition. Ravage* of the Yellow Fever In New Or- lean*. We have before us a daily report of the rav ages made by this awful scourge in New Orleans since it made its appearance this season in that city. It seems that the first death from it oc curred on the 7th day of July last, and that the deaths,as officially reported, commenced and pro gressed up to the 24th instant as follows: July 7 1 July 14 8 July 21 2 July 28 * 5 August 4 9 August 11 14 August 18 26 August. 25 77 September 1 129 September 8 245 September 15 858 September 22 418 September 23 77 Sepiember24 82 From other fevers during the same period, there have occurred 439 deaths, and from various dis eases 1,520; this making a grand, solemn total of deaths in that city, from the 7th day of July last up to the 24th iustant, both inclusive, of 3405, a number equal to the slain in many a hard fought battle during the late war. ■Slack Voter*—Mean White*. Leaving all political, partizan, and sectional considerations out of sight, there is a meanness of spirit, on the part of the Northern and Wes tern Republicans, in banding over ten entire States, the heritage heretofore of men of their own race, to the domination of negroes, who but yesterday were slaves. A people who have no pride of race, can have no self-respect, is in a lair way to earn the contempt of mankind every where. How rapidly and effectively the Africanization of our country is proceeding, under the inspira tion, mainly, of New England Puritanism, may be .-< en at a glance, by the following returns of the Southern registry, to dale: [Corrected up to September 24, 1S67.] States.

The negroes we suspect will be truer to their own race than the mean (Puritan) white is, to his. At the start, he mav allow himself to be used by the Yankee politicians who want to till the offices in the “reconstructed” States, but in a little while, ne gro human nature will assert itself. “Blood is thicker than water,” and the water will find its level. Anou, these vast negro majorities will be cast tor the election only of Africans, and the Africans in due time will be, not only, as they are already in New Orleans, on the Judicial bench, but in the Senate and House of Repre sentatives at Washington, helping to make white men’s Tax Bills, white men’s Treaties a it ii Foreign Countries, ect., ect. In this as pect of the case, New York aud New Jersey are as hkelv to experience the blissful effects of Ne gro Supremacy, as South Carolina, Louisiana or Georgia. What a mean idea the negro must have of the white men, to be sure, who are thus ignoring their own race, and abjectly calling upon them to be their law makers !—New York Com. Serenade to President Jobuaon. After the serenade to Gen. Hancock, in Wash ington. ou Tuesday night, the vast crowd called at^he White House and paid the same compli ment to the President. After hearty cheers had been given by the large assemblage, the President said: bVlow-Ciiizens: In appearing before you this evening it is uot for the purpose of making an address, but simply to tender you my thanks for ; this kind manilestatiou of respect and regard, and especially so on the present occasion, and i under the existing circumstances.

The Preitldent’s Amnesty—The Hon. S. F. Rice. There was inaccuracy in our statement in our last issue, that Judge Rice took “the registration” oath, and thereupon offered to register. He could not Like that, because he had been a mem ber of the Legislature and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court before the war. The oath which he took was not “the registra tion” oath, but the one prescribed in the Pro clamation of the President, dated 7th of Septem ber, 1867; whicii is as follows: “I do solemnly swear iu the presence of Al mighty God, that I will henceforth faithfully support, protect and defend tbe Constitution of the United States and the Union of the States, thereunder, and that I will in like manner abide by and faithfully support all laws and proclama tions which have been made during the late re hellion with reference to the emancipation of slaves; so help me God.” The opinion of Judge Rice is, that every citi zen who is supposed to be disfranchised by the late legislation of Congress in relation to the Southern States, or by participation, either di rect or implied, in the late war, (except only those embraced iu the exceptions contained in said proclamation,) may avail himself of said proclamation by taking said oath and causing the same to be registered as therein prescribed ; and that on doing this, every such citzen secures to himself “the restoration of all privileges, im munities, aud rights of property, except as to property with regard to slaves, and except in cases ot legal proceedings under the laws of the United States.” The Constitution of the United States express ly declares to the President “power to grant re prieves and pardons for offences against the United States, except in cases of impeachment.” Hence, by the Constitution, the power of the President to grant a lull pardon, with full resto ration of all privileges, immunities, and rights ot property, which are forfeited or lost by an offence against the United States exists in every case, “except iu cases of impeachmant.” As this power is given to the President by the Constitution, Congress has no power to pass any act or do anything which can operate to destroy, impair or abridge it to any extent whatever. In this respect the President is as independent of Congress as he is of any State Legislature or City Council. No matter what Congress may have done before such full pardon may be grant ed by the President, or what Congress may do after such full pardon, the pardon is just as fully operative as if Congress had never doue or at tempted to do anything on the subject. One of the privileges which is restored to the citizen by such pardon is tlie right to vote. Judge Rice is further of opinion, that the citi zen who lias taken aud caused to be registered as aforesaid the oath prescribed iu said procla mation ot September 7, 1867, is, therefore, re stored to the privilege of voting without any of fering to have himself registered by or before the Board of Registration under the reconstruction acts of Congress. He made the offer before the board on Saturday merely out of abundant cau tion ; but be does Dot think any such offer es sential to his right to vote. He intends to offer to vote at the ensuing elec tion ; and he thinks that every citizen who is em braced by the proclamation of the President of the 7th September, 1867, and who, between this time and the time of the election, shall have com plied with that proclamation, will lie thereby restored to the privilege of voting, and that if such citizen, after such compliance, offer to vote, and the managers refuse to allow him to vote, they thereby become liable to him for damages, which he may sue for and recover. As far as we are informed the opinion of Judge Rice is generally concurred iu by the members of the bar. Judge Rice, so far as we are informed, is the first to put himself in a position to raise before the courts, tbe question, whether the President’s late proclamation does not restore the right of voting to even the supposed disfranchised citi zens who comply with it. It is to be hoped that all of our disfranchised citizens will follow his example, and thus put themselves in a position to obtain their rights by a calm and peaceful ap peal to 'he judicial tribunals. Why should any citizen omit the opportunity to seek from the courts what is denied under the military or reconstruction hills? The way is marked out. Will the disfranchised fail to put themselves in that way. Every one of them ought to comply with the proclamation before the day of election, and thereupon to offer to vote at the election. This is what they owe to themselves and their country. From Richmond. Richmond, Sept 25.—The ex-officers, sailors and soldiers’ convention mef to-day.

Re- lease. We make the following extract from an article in the Cartersville Express of yesterday headed as above : Our readers have heard much during the last week concerning the “Light case,” and, intense interest having been manifested in the case dur ing its progress, we propose, now, as the mat- ter.has finally ended, to give our readers a true version of the affair, as we have been able to gather it. We have determined to submit the facts fully and impartially to our readers, as we learn, with much regret, that many false and exaggerated rumors have gained circulation which do great injustice to the military authori ties. From all that we can learn at the adjourn ed term of the Superior Court, about the last of July, Wm. Light and others, were tried before his Honor, Judge Milner, under tlie charge of haviug murdered „ in this Co., about the day of 1864, and by the verdict of the jury were all acquitted.— After the acquittal of Mr. William Light in that case, a suspicion, (and, we have no doubt, an un founded suspicion,) arose, that, although under bond to appear and stand his trial at this term ot the court under the charge of having mur dered J. L. Satterfield in this county,on the lSih day of November, 1864, that he would flee the country aud not appear for trial. Tiiese fears were not entertained by the surities upon his bond, but by others. Under these circumstances he was arrested, by order of Gen. P.»pe, and kept in custody by the military until the court was readv to try him. There being none but a tem porary and insecure jail iu this county, he was kept in military custody at Rome. Court befog in session, he was brought here from Rome under guard, for trial. On Thursday of last week the case was taken up. The prose cution was conducted by the Solicitor-General, J. R Parrott, and Col. Ilenry P. Farrow, of At lanta ; the defense by Gen. Wm. T. Wofford and Col. J. A. W. Johnson, of Dalton. The argu ment iu tiie case closed on last Monday evening, and the jury, alter being out until Wednesday at 5 o’clock, p’. m., returned with a verdict of ' not guilty," whereupon, by special order, Mr. Light "was released from military arrest The follow ing is the order relieving him: HVadcjearteks Third Military District, I Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 25, 1867. ) Special Orders, No. 183. extract. * * * * * II. William Light, citizeu, prisoner, arrested pursuant to instructions from tnese headquarters, dated August 6, 1867, and now on trial before the Superior Court of Bartow county, Carters ville, Georgia, will, upon the termmation of his trial,’ be surrendered to the civil authorities. By command of Brevet Major General Pope. H. Clay Wood, Assistant Adjutant General. Official: G. K. Sanderson, Captain 33d U. S. Infantry, Acting Assistant Adjutant General. Many persons have thought that Mr. Light, by order of the military, was on trial the second time for the same offense, when, in truth, the trial which he has been undergoing during the past week, has no connection whatever with the trial he underwent a few weeks ago. Tbe prosecution was faithfully, vigorously, and ably conducted by Messrs. Parrott and Far row. They discharged their duty—their whole duty, and nothing but their duly. Mr. Light has been triumphantly acquitted, aud we congratulate him on his acquittal. He is a young man of fine character—made a good soldier—has been acquitted of all charges—aud we trust will live a long life of usefulness in our couuty. When issued a general order as follows: “Numerous and well-founded representations having been made that illegal and oppressive taxes have been imposed in different sections of the States of North and South Carolina, it is or dered that the collection of taxes be suspended in the following cases : 1. Whenever any lax is or shall be imposed otherwise than under the authority of the gov ernment of the United States which by the terms of the act imposing the same or by the action of the public authorities thereunder, shall apply to any property or rights parted with, or any trans action made or completed prior to the adoption of tiie act authorizing the same. 2. \V lienever the power of Congress to regu late commerce with foreign nations, and amon, tiie several States is impugned by the imposition ot taxes discriminating in commercial transac lions iu favor of resident citizens, aud against the citizens of foreign nations, or of other States of the United States. 3. Whenever any tax is or shall hereafter be imposed for tiie purpose of discharging any obli gation contracted iu aid or furtherance of the re bellion against the government and authority of the United States, or to re-imburse the public treasury, or to any local body, or public officer, or other person, for ary expenditure on account of any such obligation, or pretended obligation Commanding officers of posts are authorized to suspend the collection of any tax embraced in the above paragraph, reporting their action and the grounds, and all proofs, relating thereto to these headquarters. Interesliug v ew* Items. Washington, Sept. 29.—Prof. Charles King, President ot Columbia (N. Y.) College, died in Italy. Gen. Scott’s will, just probated, bequeathes the Pulaski sword to West Point, and that worn by him in the Mexican war to liis grandson Winfield Scott Hoyt. Hayti advices to the 8th say the country is iu an extraordinary agitation. Gold is fabulously high—provisions scarce—flour worth $20 per barrel in gold.

New Orleans, Sept. 29.—General Mower issued an order to-day modifying the military Orders relative to juries in Texas, so as to render it practicable to obtain juries in that State. The order requires jurors to be drawn trom those registered, and none other, and no other oath required than that ot registration. The election passed off quietly both days. No official return yet. In the 4th municipal district the total vote polled was 1,260. The Republican desponds of tiie vote being large enough to ren der the election valid, aDd says the white vote is about one-tenth of the whole entire vote.

Sensible Man.—The New York Times an nounces that its editor, Mr. Raymond, now “con siders himself out of politics—certainly out of all party combinations and party movements— and intends, moreover, to remain so. When he declined a re-election to Congress, a year ago, it was with the purpose of devoting himself wholly to the editorship of the Times—a position which is much more to his taste than any other be has ever filled, and which carries with it quite as much of influence, honor, and substantial re ward as any office in the gift of Presidents or of political parties.

Washington, Sept. 30.—The report of the Commissioner of Agriculture for August and September, represents the wheat crop not as large as anticipated in July. Corn promises a fair crop it frosts' do not injure it. The army worm made its appearance iu cotton fields about the first iustant, and caused considerable appre hension in some sections for the safety of crop. Potatoes are rotting badly in many of the large potatoe growing States, and the yield will be less than last year. Owing to the severe weather last winter the wool crop this year is from five to ten per cent, less than last. James M. Murphy, a Nashville negro, has been appointed by the Sergeant-at-arms ot the United States Senate, a member ot the Capital police force. A strong pressure is being brought to bear to secure the modification recently promulgated in the cotton regulation.

Savannah, Sept 30.—One Bradley, a Boston mulatto, who has been several times arrested by the military and civil authorities for swindling negroes and exciting disturbances, had a gather ing here of some thousand negroes, mostly from the country; in the course ot his harrangue against the white man and favoring a distribu tion of lands, the conversation of a negro inter rupted him, when a melee occuired. A large force of police charged through the crowd; the military came to their aid, and together cleared the square. Muskets brought in by a large baud of country negroes were taken by the police and turned over to the military. A large proportion of the colored population disapprove Bradley, and threaten to assassinate him. Entente cordiale between the city Government and military affords greaisalisfaction to all classes, except ignorant adhereutsof Bradley. later. Satannaa, Sept. 30.—City all quiet Distur bance threatened between country and Conser vative citv colored people to-night. General Anderson'Chief of Police, has given orders to arrest every disorderly person, regardless of color or politics! The military remain under arms, but probably their services will not be needed. Large number of arrests of the rioters.

A resolution urging the repeal ot the usury law of the State was adopted. The Convention adjourns sine die. The following letter will be published in the Whig to-morrow: Headquarters Fresr Military District. / State op Virglnia, Richmond, Sept. 24, 1867. > Mr. James McDonald, Virginia : Sir—I have received your communication of this date, asking my decision of the question whether delegates to the State Convention wiil be required to take the oath prescribed by the act ot Congress for officers of the United States and by section 9 ot the act of July 19, for all persons hereafter elected or appointed to office in said military district under auy so-called State or municipal authority, or by detail or apportion rnent of the District commanders. In reply have no hesitation in saying that delegates to tbe State Convention cannot be required to take the oath referred to. Section 9 of the act of July 19 refers to officers elected under authority of the so-called or provisional State Govern meats. This cannot be construed to include delegates to a State Convention, elected under authority ot the Congress of the United States. No oath whatever has been prescribed by law for delegates to the State Convention, and there is no authority but Congress competent to pre scribe such oath. The only restriction imposed upon the registered voters in selection of these delegates to the Convention is that contained in the 5th section of the act of JIarch 2, viz: “ No person not excluded from the privilege of holding office, by said proposed amendment to the Constitution of the United States, shall be elligible to election as member of a convention to frame a constitution for any of the said rebel States.” Yours, very respectfully, J. M. Schofield, Brevet Major General, U. S. A. Tbe Nashville Embrogllo, Washington, Sept. 25.—It is said that the President and Gen. Grant have received dis patches frovn Nashville, which state that the city authorities intend to hold the elections un der the charter, while the State authorities are equally determined to hold the elections under the new franchise law. Gen. Thomas is ordered to Nashville with in structions to maintain order, but otherwise not to interfere, f BY THE ATLANTIC CABLE. Matters In Italy. Florence, Sept. 29.—Garibaldi has written a letter from prison. He says the Romans have slaves, and it is the duty of the Italians to help them. He hopes his fellow patriots will not be discouraged, but march on to the liberation of Rome. The eyes of the world are upon them, and nations aDxiously await the result of their actions. Later accounts represent the riots as serious. In some cities the mobs are fierce and obstinate. The troops are using bayonets and bullets occasionally—many killed and wounded.

Death of a Centenarian.—Mrs. Mary Arnod, probably the oldest woman in the United States, died at her residence in Douglas street, Brooklyn, on the 25th instant, at the advanced age of 110 years. Mrs. Arnod was born in Charleston, S. C., 1758, and moved to LoDg Island in 1794, where she dwelt until her death. She was the mother of eight children, five of whom are still living, the eldest being 70, and tiie youngest 55 years ot age. A dispatch from Norfolk states that Genial Toehman, of the Virginia Emigration Society, has arrived in Norfolk as the European agent of the State, to ascertain the probabilities of ma king that port the rendezvous of numerous Polish families, who are expected shortly to mi grate. Twelve hundred emigrants are said to be expected the coming season. The next session of the Virginia Legislature will be asked for aid to the enterprise. Individual contributions have reached a considerable figure. Frazer, Tiienholm & Co.—The statement of the case of the Government against Frazer, Trenholm & Co., alluded to at length in dis patches last night, has been consummated. The negotiations were concluded to-day, and Messrs. Wagner, Magrath, and Campbell left for Charles ton to-night. The Treasury Department, for reasons of public policy, declines to make the terms pubjic just at present, but there is warrant for saying that the terms ot settlement are fully as favorable as the Government has ever hoped for.— Washington Dispatch N. Y. Times, 26th. Near Rock Island, Illinois, recently, Mrs. Campbell Bartbell was bitten by a rattlesnake in a field of watermelons. The whisky cure was immediately tned, quantities of the article being administered; but this remedj', as well as the skill of physicians subsequently called, failed to counteract flie poison, and Mrs. B irthell died six days after being bitten. Under date of the 23d, Admiral Raphael Semmes announces, in a card, that his editorial connection with the Memphis Bulletin has ceased. The Bulletin i3 one of our favorite pa pers do longer. The Goodman, Mississippi, Southern Star says : “A diamond in the rough state was found at Camden during the war, but at the time was considered of no value. Since then it has been examined, and in the opinion of intelligent men, it is worth $50,000. It is in the possession of Dr. Tom Cotton, of Camden.” Among the lies accredited by the Northern press to Gen. Sheridan, is one to the effect that the registration lists in New Orleans show that more negroes than white people can write their names. A radical change is about to be effected in the mode of shoeing horses in France. The old- fashioned shoe is to be altogether discarded; the lioof of the horse will be allowed to grow natur ally, and it will be protected against accidents and wear and tear by being inclosed in a thin circle of iron, which will preserve it from dan ger without compressing it [WRITTEN for tue intelligencer.] Mosquito.

The Nashville Gazette, of Sunday morning contains the following account of the election farce that took place in that city on the day pre vious. It is stated that the present Mayor oi Nashville intends to hold on until the provisions ol the City Charter in regard to the city elec tions are set aside by tiie courts, provided, we presume, the military authority does not eject him from office: The farce is over and tiie drama is about to commence ; whether the entertainment will ter minate iu a tragedy or not remains to be seen. On Friday night the militia took possession oi the various voting places designated by the City Marshal, and at seven o’clock Saturday morning our streets were tilled with United Slates troops, infantry and cavalry 7 , on their way to the differ ent precincts to relieve the militia. Thus the polls were in possession of the military during the entire night aud until tiie close of the farce at four o’c’oek, when they were ordered back to their headquarters. When it became known to our citizens that the military would have control of the election, most of the Conservative candidates withdrew from tiie contest, and very few white men voted at all, except the Radicals, who expect to teed from he public crib. Everything went off quietly, and some of the wards polled very few votes. According to appointment the officers of elec tion appointed by tbe Board of Aldermen met tbe Council chamber, Captain Driver in cliair, hen the following document was drawn up and signed by those present : Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 20,1867. To the Honorable Mayor and Board of Aldermen of the city of Nash ville : Genttemkn—We, tiie judges and clerks ap pointed by you to conduct the polls in the first, second, third,fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth aud tenth wards, for the election to be held this day, for Mayor, Aldermen find Common Councilmen, respectfully submit that we were ready and willing to perform that duty, at the places designated, but were prevented from so doing by a strong military force, by whom pos session of the places were formerly Iftken ou the evening of the 27th, aud retained until a late hour this day, and that therefore no election was held under tbe city charter. Signed by the judges, etc. The Election.—The returns as far as heard from up to nine o’clock show that Alden re ceived a large majority. The returns for the first, sixth and tenth wards were not in, but we learned from outside sources that they will in crease Alden’s majority. The following are the Aldermen and Council- men elected a la mode : 2d Ward—Alderman, NelsoD ; Councilmen, Woodmanse and Smith. 3d Ward—Alderman, W. J. Kinney; Council- men, W. J. Corcoran and M. G. Thayer. 4th Ward—Alderman, R. S. Tuthill; Council- men, Cockrill and Dm Watkins, colored. 5th Ward—Alderman, J. B. Knowles; Coun cilmen, Shankland and Ogden. 6th Ward—Alderman, Thomberger; Council- men, J. T. Yarborough aud Pratt. 7th Ward—Alderman, Allen ; Councilmen, Bnrchett and Griffin. 8th Ward—Alderman, Donaldson ; Council- men, Mitchell and D. Brien. 9th Ward—Alderman, James D. McLaughlin; Councilmen, Thomas Olsen and P. T. Coyle. Sixty thousand pounds of butter were shipped from Cumberland, Maryland, to Baltimore dur ing the last week, making more than one hun dred aud twenty-five thousand pounds shipped in three weeks. Butter is quoted at Cumber land at twenty to twenty-five cents per pound. The cholera still prevails in St. Louis, and has •lately carried off a number of the most promis ing young men in the city. TheBoard of Health has again prohibited tiie sale of green vegetaoles. and the city is undergoing a vigorous cleansing. Ben. Wade says “ tbe proudest period of his life was when he worked upon tiie canal as a common laborer.” He might add that it was the most creditable. A good laborer, in his case, has made a very bad politician. One hundred and forty-eight bales of new cotton were received in Memphis on the 27th instant. Business is improving in that city, and cotton coming in freely.
