(Commercial Jntrlligmc. Office of the Avgust* Republic, | November 6, 1849. J AUGUSTA MARKET. COTTON. The receipts of Cottou at Augus- ta and Hamburg, during the months of Septem ber and October, reached 51,187 bales, against 48,644 bales during the same months last year; the receipts in September were 7,280 bales, against 14,204 bales last year, and in October 43,988 bales, against 34.442 last year, showing an increase of receipts, so far this year, ol 2,621 bales. The slock on haud on the Ist of No vember “-as 33,018 bales, against 30,241 at the same date last year. Our market for Cotton opened on Tuesday with a heavy demand, which continued on Wed nesday and Thursday, and very full prices were paid. On Friday and Saturday the business was more limited, as both holders aud buyers prefer red waiting the steamer’s news, then due, ere they operated to any extent. Fine Cotton con tinued in good request all the week, aud as high as 11 cents was paid for several small parcels of very choice Cotton. At the latter end of the week there was considerable difficulty in selling the common qualities, as holders were not willing to put them down sufficiently low to induce buy ers to take them. The accounts of the Hibernia being at hand on yesterday, the business of the day was moderate, and the sales were to a limit ed extent at a decline of full J a 1 of a cent on all grades. The sales of the week reached 5,535 at the following rates: 9atß} ; 1 at 8} ;71 at 9; 8 at 9J ; 10 at 9} ; 49 at 94 ; 23 at 9g ; 278 at 9} ; 35 at 9} ; 509 at 10; 9 at 10 1-16 ; 572 at 104; 1514«tl01; 146 at 195-16; 811 atlOJ; 64 at 10 7-16 ; 977 at 104 ! 34 at 10 9-16; 183 at 10J ; 105 at 10}; and 27 bales at 11 cents. We omit quotations, as We do not consider the market sufficiently settled to give them with any accuracy. The receipts since the Ist inst. have been very heavy, and the shipments, both by the river and rail road, very large. The continued prevalence of good weather for the gathering and maturing of the crop, defies any calculation as to what the extent of the crop may reach; many believing that the very late season will give a very considerable increase up on all former calculations. We have had no kill ing frost in our Cotton section of the State, and the weather now gives but little indication of any ' such a visitation, and should it keep off much louger, must greatly add to the crop through this section of the State. DRYGOODS, HARDWARE, Ac.—Quite a heavy business continues to be done by all our wholesale dealers, and as their stocks are large, country merchants will find it to their interest to visit our market ere they make their puichases. _ GROCERIES. —We have nothing to report ,n our Grocery market. Goods of all kinds are plem'Y- 8 » d our stocks were never larger Sugars are abundant and low. Coffee is sold at 10 cents, but freely, as holders are not disposed to sell out at th*l price, as they cannot purchase it in any other market unless at higher prices— the supply of Molasses, and all kinds of domestic liquors* in good. BAGGING AND BALE ROPE—The de mand still continues heavy for all kinds of Bag ging and Bale Rope, and the supply in market is large—prices remain unchanged. SALT.—The supply in store is good, and we notice the receipt in Savannah of about 20,000 bushels and 1,500 sacks. Prices remain at $1 40 a BLSO for sack, and 40 a 45c- for bulk ; no sales by the quantity since our last report. BACON.—There has been quite a scarcity of good sides until within a few days, when several lots have been received; it still sells at 7c. by the quantity for sides, and Bc. by retail; several small lots of good hams have been received and sold at llets. There Will baa good demand for Baeon WI long as the weather remains warm. R.—No change in our market for flour itM Cmntn"rt.mr have been sosrf *>y the quantity al #6} a #6} per bbl., Canal §7 »)’ the quantity, and B sß at retail. Extra Branas 8 P« r b “" el - DOMESTIC GOODS.—The supply in mar ket is good. The Augusta Manufacturing Com pany are selling freely but still have a supply on hand ; Yarns are abundant at 14 cents, aud Os nabttrgs can be boug’.'t from 8} to 9 cents. FREIGHTS.—The riW keep* in food order and the boats are doing a heavy business both in up and down freights ; the freight o's cotton is 50c. per bale to Savannah, and $1 to Charleston. Cotton.—The sales of cotton in New York on Saturday reached 1000 bales ; fair oplands were quoted at 11}. The market closed firm. The sales of the week were 13,000 bales. In Charleston— On Saturday last the sales we. r e b*lea, at extremes ranging from 9 to Ilk conts. InSa v 4.«nah —On Thursday last the sales were 1704 at lO£ to 11 cents; fair to good fair lO£ J° 11 cents. On Friday, the market was m<?rfi animated; and the sales reached 2873 bales/ * from 91 •« 11 cents— more than four-fifth* 4>f i?* were made above 10} cents. |By Telegraph to the Charleston Courier.] New Orleans, Oct. 30.—Colton, yesterday, was brisk, and the sales reached 5,50(J bales, at }c. advance since the receipt of the Europa 8 news, and prices fully sustained.

Smith, formerly Register, to be First Auditor, in the place of Mr. Clark, ap pointed Solicitor. Almost a Fight.—A couple of young gen iletuen like to have had a serious difficulty, thia morning, as they met, in St. Clair Street, near the residence of Capt. Schley. One drew his pistol and the other tore off one of the palings of the adjacent fence wherewith to demolish his antagonist. The parties were however separated befora any damage was done. —[Muscogee Deni, latinst.

(EFTlie Office of the Republic has been removed to the Brick Building first door below the Engle and Phoenix Hotel. EF Mr. Win. Clagget being no longer the Agent of the Republic, we respectfully request our subscribers and advertising friends, who have waited to be called upon by Agents, to transmit amounts dne us by mail. EFWe invite the attention of our readers to the advertising columns of this morning’s paper. Millinery and Fancy Goods.—Those in want of articles in this line would do well to call upon Mr. J. Mack, south-west corner of Meeting and Hasell streets, Charleston. See his advertisement in another column. U* We would call attention to the notice of a meeting Io be held next Thursday for the formation of a Cotillon Club. ITjOur readers will find in to day’s paper an interesting article on the subject of the explo sion of steam boilers. The Legislature* Intelligence was received in this city last night, stating that the Legislature had been organized, and the Hon. William B. Wofford elected President es the Senate, and Mr. L. J. I Glenn, Secretary. Mr. John W. Anderson, of Chatham, was . elected Speaker of the House. Lecture of Professor Eve. The Lecture, introductory to the commence- I ment of the exercises of the Georgia Medi- i cal College, was delivered yesterday, at the : College Building, by Prof. Paul F. Eve. Wej have seldom listened to any effort which afford ed as much gratification as this Lecture did.: The subjest was the position of the Medical | profession to society. In his opening remarks i the Professor made some beautiful allusions to the exemption of our city, from cholera and other disease, and thd cause which exists for our gratitude to the Giver of all good. We cannot undertake to follow the learned Professor in all the ramifications of his subject, which was lucidly arranged and eloquently expounded. The importance, the utility of the science of Medicine, was ably exhibited, I The prejudices which to some extent exist ■ against the profession, were successfully and justly exposed. The injustice which has bjen and is yet done them was portrayed too plainly not to be seen and admitted by every listener. The Professor paid a handsome and eloquent tribute to the self-sacrificing spirit of the true and noble-hearted physician, in his efforts to relieve the suffering of his fellow-creatures. Many do not remember that physicians en counter hardships, exposures at 1 dangers, du ring a lifetime of practice, which call for as much heroism as the soldier displays in storm ing the ramparts of an enemy. They must go into the midst of disease and pestilence, whether Yellow Fever, Plague or Cholera, and risk their lives for others: and often too, when they have no hope or prospect of reward.— Some noble instances of this heroic devotion to the cause of human suffering were adduced. The Professor interspersed his gruver thoughts with some flashes of wit and anecdote of a highly pleasing and attractive character. We prMume that the lecture will be laid be fore the public. It would be read with in terest as well from its literary excellence »s the importance of its subject matter. The day was mild and beautiful, and the Lecture Rootn crowded with both sexes. It was gratifying to see so large a number of students in attendance. Judging from the number present we should think that the prospects of the Institution were never so flat tering before. Rail Road Accident. —Loss or Life.— About dusk on Saturday evening, the “ Pica yune," with the passenger car for Bel Air attached, came in collision with a wood train on the Georgia Rail Road, just four miles from the city. When they discovered each other, an effort was made by the Engineers to avoid a aollision, but as the wood train was on a down grade, they did not succeed, and we re gret to say that a lady, named Mrs. Smith, lin ing some ten or twelve miles from the city, who, in the fright, jumped out, was run over and Instantly killed. The other passengers, who remained in the car, were uninjured. The “ Picayune ” and her tender sustained some slight damage.— [Chronicle, of yesterday. Fire. —A kitchen and bake oven belonging to Mr. John VV. Zinn, cracker and cake baker, in tl>e lower part of Broad street, were destroy ed by fire oh Saturday morning last. Floridian and Journal. —Mr. A. E. Max well 2>as disposed of his interest in the above paper, which is published at Tallahassee, to Mr. Charles E. Dyke. It will hereafter be published by Messrs. Hilton and Dyke. The Floridian has heretofore been conducted with much spirit and ability, and we doubt not will continue to be under the present arrangement. Editorial Change.—Mr. JohnH. Christy, one of the proprietors and editors of the South ern Whig, has sold his interest in the same to Mr. Habersham J. Adams, and it will hereaf ter be published by Messrs. Izmpkin and Adams. We are pleased to see that Mr. Christy will still be connected with the estab lishment as editor of the Whig. He is a sound and effective writer, and his freedom from the cares of its business department will enable him to add still more to the interest of the Whig. We trust that the publishers may meet with an ample reward. New Post Offices—Conoochee, in Eman uel county, Ga.; Ben. E. Brinson, postmaster. Oakmttlgee, in Telfair county, Ga.; Duncan Mcßea, postmaster. IT By a recent arrangement with the rail road companies, cotton can now be sent from Chattanooga, Tenn., to Charleston, S. C., at 65 cents per hundred pounds. Tlie distance is about 440 mites. Pork Packing Business.—The Chatta nooga Gazette of the 2d inst. says: We notice that a number of the hands conn ected with the Pork Packing Establishment of Messrs. Armstead Turner, in this place, reached here on Wednesday evening last, and will soon be ready to engage in business. Messrs. A. fit T. write that one or both of them will leave Baltimore on the 10th inst., and will be here in a few days thereafter, ready to cash any amount of hogs and beeves that may be offered. Stabbing.—We regret to hear, that officer Won. Ligon was stabbed several times with a pen-knife, last evening by Peter Noland, in the bouse of the latter, whither Mr. Ligon had proceeded to serve a civil process. Though the wounds are severe tiiey are not deemed dangerous. Mr. Noland has not yet been arretted [Massogee Dem. Ist iuM. Editorial Correspondence. Milledgeville, Nov. 4, 1849.

It may be that Ihave omitted to give some of the above named gentlemen their proper title. That I hope they will excuse, however, as it was by no means intended. It will not do to set them all down as positively candid ates, but they are alj spoken of by their friends, who urge their claims with admirable tact in fact an occasion like this is better calculated to polish manners than a dancing school. For tunately for some very good reasons, but un fortunately for others, I have a name-ake who is a member from Greece, Bnd I am frequent ly approached by a candidate in the most hap py ind capuY ßtin F manner, under the impres sion that lam the member from Greene, d. The Nashville Banner and Whig referring to the Message of the Governor of Tennessee, on the subject of the election of Judges by the people, says: “In regard to the present method of appoint ing Judges and Attornies, his remarks have much force. The evils of the present system are certainly great ; no duties devolving upon the Legislature being perhaps as onerous as those of electing these officers. We believe that in some States, the new method of electing them by the people has been tried to advan tage; and certainly, under the system now in use, there is an immense waste ot time and of die public money, whilst the advantages deriv ed from it are not particularly apparent. The peopled any section are good judges of the integrity and ability ot legal practitioners, and are not likely, even in the heat of parly poli tics, to entrust their dearest rights and interests with those who are not suited to protect them. It is the duty of the Legislature to do some thing, at least, to reform or alter the old meth od, and we hope to see some action therefore attempted, at least, Tripoli.—The Cassville Standard of Nov. 2d. says : We are informed that there are ex tensive beds of Tripoli in Cass county, some of them of superior quality, lying immediately on the S.ale Road. Lithographic Stone.—We noticed (says the Cassville Standard of the 2d inst.) some I time since that a bed of this valuable stone ' had been discovered in Alabama. We have since been told by a gentleman who onght to ’ know, that there is probably a large bed of it ■ in the vicinity of Rome. This will be a valu able discovery, if it be really the Lithographic ; stone, which haa hitherto been brought princi- j pally from Europe. Serious Steamboat Accident. —On Tues- \ day last, about sundown, one of the fines of the steamer DeKalb, Capt. Moody, collapsed ■ at a place on the Savannah river, called Seven • Points, about seventy miles below Augusta,’ injuring several persons and killing two negro I men. Mr. Rahn, the Mate, was struck in the face by some fragment and badly bruised and cut ac’roM the nose. Mr. John Heary, 2d Engineer, was badly scalded in the face and on his arms. Mr. Chavers, deck hand, badly scald ed on his side and shoulder, and it is feared that he has inhaled some of the steams altoge ther his case is a serious one. A negro man, who was sitting on a bale of cotton, has not been seen since, and is supposed tc have been blown overboard and drowned. Another ne gro fellow was so badly scalded tha. he died in three hours, and was buried on the shore with i appropriate religious services. ‘ Rev. Mr. Ross, of this city, and several oth er gentlemen were passengers—none of whom were injured. The injured persons suffered considerably for the want of medical attend ance, as no'« eould be procured for two days, the T. S. Metcalf being the first boat that pas , sed to take off the passengers. Mr. Ross had ' studied medicine some years since, and kindly did what he could to relieve the sufferers. The cause of the accident is supposed to be the weakness of the work where the flue join ed the boiler, as the Engineer had tried the water, but a few minutes before, and it was found all right. Capt. Moody came down on the T. S. Met calf, to get a boat to tow the DeKaib to the city. Nepart of the DeKalb is injured except her Biac binary i [Communicated.] Messrs. Editors: While reading an account of the bursting of the boiler ol the “ Altoona, near Bel Air, and the speedy subsequent death of Mr. Richard E. Allen, the skillul and ex perienced Engineer, my mind was retrospec tively carried back in its reminiscence to several ot the fatal accidents which have, from time to time, occurred, in our bays and rivers, from the bursting of boilers of steamboats, &c. —such as the Ben. Franklin, at Mobile Bay ; the steamers New Jersey, Ahna, and Excel sior, in the harbor of New York, &c. This first occurrence of boiler bursting »pon any of our rail roads, is calculated to awaken the fears of the travelling public, who prefer this method of conveyance, either for them selves or their produce, and it renders the pre sent an appropriate time to discuss the cause, and suggest the means for preventing such disasters. It is the generally received opin i ton that the expansion or pressure of steam is j the sola cause of explosion in steam boilers; : and hence the usual decision is, carelessness I in the Engineer or person managing the steam gauge. The committee of gentlemen appointed by Congress, some years since, to ascertain the 'cause of, and suggest or prepare a remedy against such dire calamities, (perhaps more of politicians than chemists,) opined that exces sive expansion and pressure of steam was the cause, and that a vigilant and thoroughly at tentive Engineer, by special attention to the gauge, could control the pressure, the sole cause of the explosion, and avert the evil. In this age of telegraphic intellectual im provement, it will not be deemed presumption for an humble citizen, filling no niche in the temple of science or literary fame, to assert, that, though steam may, by its expansion and pressure, burst the boiler or vessel in which it is confined, making egress through the weak est part of the boiler, scalding and destroying life, as well when escaping from a mere fis sure or rent as when let loose by an explosion ; yet that steam is not the explosive agent in the bursting of boilers of steamboats and ves sels. The phenomena attendant upon the ex plosion of a boiler—as exhibited near the wharf at Mobile, by the Ben. Franklin, as detailed to me, soon after the fatal accident, by an intelli gent gentleman while we stood near the wharf —were not those of explosion from aqueous particles, rendered aeriform, expansive and de vellent by caloric. These phenomina exhibit ed a power, quick, sudden and instantaneous, with sharp detonation and shattered wreck, similar, in all respects, to the explosion of gun cotton, gunpowder, or ths chemist's Pulvis Fulminalis. Such action such phenomina are more consistent with the idea, that a portion of the water in the boiler has been decomposed by eontact with the white het metal of the boiler. This is liable to occur from introduc ing a fresh supply of water, oi by the oscilla tion or rolling ol the boat in turning or leav ing the wharf. Every tyro in chemistry should know that an analysis of water yields oxygen and hydro gen—that iron, at a certain temperature, ab sorbs oxygen—that hydrogen, when separated from its combination in the water, is one of the most expansible and inflammable products of nature or art. The oxygen combining with, and having formed a metallic oxide, with the hot boiler, would leave the hydrogen free, and to occupy a space equal to 1300 times the bulk of the water—which js nearly double the force of gunpowder. Or if we vary the postu late, and suppose that both the elements of the water remain free, there would then be J 986 times the bulk of the water which is about three times the explosive force of gunpowder, and this would be in addition to, and indepen dent of, the force of steam already in the boiler. ThP hydrogen from the one-hundreth part of a cubic foot of water would be sufficient, if suddenly set free by heat, to produce all the fatal results enumerated after the explosion of the Ben. Franklin, the New Jersey, the iEtna, aud the Altoona. The mere sciolist ip phpmistry who has wit nessed, in the chemical officina or laboratory, the decomposition of water, the oxidation of trot), the transmission of hydrogen into the re ceiver, the sudden and excessive inflation of the recipient (a bladder) by the hydrogen, will, I presume, subscribe to the plausibility of the preceding suggestions. And should this view of the subject be correct, he will, from having witnessed the operations going on under high heat in a reverberatory furnace, readily con cede that the best preventive to these explo sions and melancholy accidents, is to construct the boiler, furnace and flues so that the flame can never reach above the water; as the metal of the boiler can never attain a white heat be low the water, and less than a white heat will not decompose it, or separate and set free the hydrogen, the explosive and devellent agent. 1 presume the present object in allowing flame to surround the boiler, is for economy in fuel. Such an arrangement, communica ting so much circumambient flame and rever beratory heat, may explode the boiler w ith the most careful Engineer. While the boat is quiescent at the wharf, the flame pent up is creating a white heat above the water; when the boat starts, or rolls, her oscillatory motions bring the water up the ' sides of the boiler, in contact with the white ; hot metal, and the result is a decomposition of j the water, a liberation of hydrogen gas, its ex- ! cessive expansion, and an ejfplosjop oyer which , the Engineer has no possible control; for, ! whether hi« safety valve is closed or open, the same result occurs. The leaving open,or the ■ opening of the valve, could no more prevent . lhe presspre frorp a decomposition of the wa ter and an extrication and expansion of the I hydrogen, than the open touch-hole of a gun can vent the pressure in the barrel when a charge of gunpowder is ignited and decom posed within its calibre. Should tlie above suggestions, by a subscri ber, find a place in your paper, he will, in a subsequent number, suggest a plan for pre venting explosions of boilers, &c. &c. Yours truly, A SUBSCRIBER.

Elrction of U. S. Senator in Illinois.— An election ior United States Senator recent ly took place in the Illinois Legislature with the following result: General Shields 72—Cyrus Edwards 21. In a previous caucus, Mr. Breese run Shields very close. Shields, however, was nominat ed in caucus on the 21st ballot by (our majori •y- __________ Meeting of the Grand Lodge.—The Macon Messenger of Wednesday says : " The Grand Lodge of Ancient York Masons, com menced its annual communication in this city yesterday. Present, Grand Master William C. Dawson, and a very full representation of Delegates from the subordinate Lodges.— We are pleased to leant, that the craft in the State is now in a most flourishing condi tion, numbering no less than one hundred and ten Lodges, being an increase of thirty Lodges during the last year. St. Omer’s Encampment of Knights Tem plars also convened on Monday evening, and will probably be in session during the week. The annual address before the Grand Lodge will be delivered by Robert H. Griffin, Esq., of Savannah, on Thursday at 11 o’clock, in the Presbyterian Church. Bad News for Lawyers.—The Macon Journal and Messenger says ; “We question whether our “ brethren of the Bar,” have ever experienced such a dearth of business in their line as :t present prevails in Middle Georgia. We understand that at the recent Superior Court in Putnam, there was not a single case returned—in Upson, perhaps only one or two—in Jones and Twiggs, not over a half dogen each—in Houston, only four or five —in Monree less than a dozen—and in Bibb, less than two score. From other counties we Kve similar reports. No wonder that our Democratic friends are preparing to scramble lustily for the various Judgeships before the next Legislature, for the man who proposes to live by profession of the Law, the next two years, will be very apt to find that he will have to rely much more upon profession than practice, Improvement of Elk River.—The Chatta nooga Gazette of the 2d inst. says: We under stand that the Hull of a Boat is now building, and will be completed in a few weeks, intend ed to be of very light draught, and to rpn on the Elk. The experiment will be successful, and from this season may be dated the disco very sis q netg 'territory, from which will pour out for the southern markets a large amount of Colton, Grain, &c.

Arrival of the Hiberuia. ' A few commercial items of news by the j steamer Hiberuia, was telegraphed to tins city I on Sunday last. "’She brings Liverpool dates to the 20th ult. The condition of the Liverpool market for the week preceding the sailing of the Hiber nia, is stated to have been very excited. In the early part of the week the market was ac tive, but the Cambria’s new* had caused a slight decline, or a subdued feeling in the*mar ket, and the sales in the latter part of the week showed a falling off in operations, and decline in prices. No quotations were received. The polilical news, which was looked for with much interest, in consequence of the an ticipated troubles in Europe, is announced to be unimportant. In business affairs, generally, there was no change of importance. Arrival of the Hiberuia. We a’re indebted to the telegraphic corres pondence of the Constitutionalist for the fol lowing news by the Hibernia.

The stock on hand is estimated at 437,000, against 530,000 bales last year. The Committee's quotations are for Fair Up lands and Mobile 6} to 6f. In Wheat, Corn and Flour there is no change of consequence, and quotations are about as per Europa. political. The latest news, of general importance in the best informed circles, is that Russia will not make war on account of Turkey’s refus d to deliver up the Hungarian refugees. They were still at Widden. Bern, Dem brinski,and several others had embraced the Ishlamism, and joined the Turkish army. M. Theirs, it is said, came out in a speech in the French Assembly on Roman aflairs.

TH E undersigned, being the owner of about 600 acres of Laud, Waev of Flint river, on which the South-Western Rail road will, for ths preae it, and perhaps for many years to come, ter minate, will soon have it surveyed and divided into Lots of suitable size for business and private resi dences, and will offer them for sale, at public out cry on the premises, on the 16TH DAY OF JANUARY NEXT. The site of the contemplated town is in Macon county, about two miles above Traveller’s Rest, upon high, dry and elevated pine land, with good pure water, free from lime. On the West side ol the River there is but a narrow strip of second low ground, entirely free from marshes and la goons. The plan of the town will soon be lithographed and copies distributed in the principal towns and citiesofthe State, for inspection by those who may wish to purchase lots.
