SEVEN DAYS LATER FftOM EUROPE.
ARRIVAL . I OF THE
STEAMSHIP CANADA.
Decline in Cotton.
Columbia, Oct. 10.
The steamship Canada has arrived at Halifax, with
dates from Liverpool to the 29th ult.
Cotton had declined an eighth of a penny. Sales ol
the week 36,000 bales.
Rreadstufl's unchanged.
Money market stringent; rate of interest raised to
live per cent. Consols 88 1-4 aSS 1-2.
The Allies had landed 30,000 men at Eupatoria, to
act against the Russian flank.
The Russians were strongly fortifying the Jsorth s de
of Sevastopol. There had been heavy storms in the
Crimea. The Allies are repairing and strengthening
the defences of the South side of Sevastopol.
The Me3illa Valley.
The San Antonio (Texas) Sentinel,in noticing the ar
rival at that place of a portion of the American party re
cently engaged in Use survey ot the new boundary Detween
the United States and Mexico, of the far tamed Mesilla
Valley, says:
“The country all the way, with a lew exceptions, is
eniirely destitute of timber. Along the stiearns, which are
small, there is more or lest timber, which, along the bot
toms, is generally cotton wood and ash.
“The soil is described as being generally iertile, and in
the valleys very rich, ‘t he places where water is conven
ient are well adapted to stock raising. The Grama grape
grows almost universally on the high lands. It may be
called a winter giape,and from the month of October till
jvi u y it is equally as good tor horses as corn or oats. Du
ring the summer months it is not very good. Different
kinds of grass grow in the valley. The country along the
line for about one hundred miles west ol El Paso is desti
tute of water, and is generally a sandy plain. From thence
on to lire San Luis Springs, a distance ot about torty miles,
water is abundant. About ten miles west ol the last nam
ed place is the Canon de Guadalupe, which is the dividing
ridge between the waters ot the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans. Along the line from Guadalupe Canon to Santa
Cruz water is abundant, and the country finely adapted to
raising stock. ~
“It was reported that gold has been found by the Mexi
cans near Santa Cruz, but none was seen by the party; but
silver ore was found in abundance near Las Nogales, at
the termination of the last western parallel. The speci
mens arc generally very rich. It is said that there is
scarcely a hill or mountain in that vicinity but what is cov
ered with rock containing licit silver 01e.7
Served Him Eight.
A young gentleman, yclept Alonzo Griflin, having ex
pressed sentiments hostile to “the peculiar institution,” and
given various indications more congenial to the atmos
phere of Massachusetts than Geofgia, was ordered out of
this city on Friday Jast, and was escorted to the cars on
Saturday by a large company of ourjcitizens.ln consequence
of his youth and weak head, no violent measures were
resorted to.the people only demanding that De should make
tracks northward. .We are informed, that he stated that
there were twenty others of the same sort in M acon, and
if the statement lie true, we hope it will not be long before
they are, all drummed out of town to the tune of the
Rogue’s March. Griffin is represented to be a crack brain
ed creature, and the proper asylum for all such lunatics is
Worth of M ason & Dixon’s line. — Geo. Telegraph.
RECIFE FOR A MODERN BONNET.
Two scraps of foundation, some fragments of lace,
A shower of French rosebuds to droop o’er the lace;
Fine ribbons and leathers, with crape and illusion,
Then mix and derange them in graceful confusion,
Inveigle some fairy, out roaming lor pleasure,
And beg the slight favor of taking her measure;
The length and breadth of her dear little pate,
Audi Last* n a miniature iranie to create:
Then pour, as above, the bright mixture upon it,
And lo! you possess “such a love of a bonnet.”

OBITUARY.
gfcDied, in this city, on the 7th jinstant, of typhoid lever,
Mrs. Mary VV. Browne, wife of J. Rhodes Browne, in
the 30th year of her age,* a native of Fishkill, New York,
but for the last four years a resident of Columbus.
In recording the death of this estimable lady we are for
cibly reminded of the prophetic words: “In the micht ol
life we are in death.” A lew days ago she was the com
fort and hope of a devoted husband and child, with the
promise of a life of usefulness and pious teachings;
tut a premature grave has closed over her, and now she re
putes in the city ol the dead. Her Fiends at a distance
will be comforted to know that in her last moments every
tiling which medical skill or’kind friends could suggest,was
done to arrest the “fell destroyer” and soothe the dying
pillow
At the hour of dissolution, when spoken to upon the
subject, the evidences which she gave of Christian faith
and hope beyond the grave, were cleair, convincing and
touchingly beautiful. We will “keep her memory green.”

Have Von n Diseased Liver J
The question, though startling, is sufficiently suggestive,
wh-ui the fact is taken into consideration that diseases l
ibe. Liver have become most alarmingly frequent in the
United .-Mates. Indeed, there aro few formidable diseases
mat arejiot in some way t.aceahle to a deranged suite of
that imp.. Haul organ. Many of the complaints usually
classed umler th * head of Consumption, have their origin
in the Liv r. “ Any remedy that would insure regularity
and healthful action in the Liver, would be a blessing to
mankind!” has been the exclamation of thousands. That
remedy has been ton no; it is gate and sure. VVhen a fair
trial has be< n offered it, it has never been known to fail.
