Southern Sights Meeting in Putnam County.
On Saturday the 30th Aug. a meeting of the
Southern Rights party of Putnam county, assem
bled at the court bouse in Eatonton, and waSxir
gaaized by calling Rev. Zacheriah Edmandson
to the chair, and appointing R. R. De Jarnette
as secretary.
The chair having stated the object of the meet
ing, John W. Hudson, Esq., offered the following
resolution:
Resolved. That the Southern Rights party of
Putnam county, cordially ratify the nomination
ol John B. Trippe, Esq. of Putnam coqirty. as a
candidate to represent the twenty-fifth Senatorial
District in the next general assembly, and that
we pledge ourselves to use all honorable means
to secure his election.
Belore the resolution was submitted to the
meeting, the mover, Mr. Huijson, addressed the
meeting upon the political questions of the day.
And among other things showed clearly that in
the compromise the south had lost every thing'
ami gained nothing. That the Southern Rights
party, in consequence of their love for the Union
are willing to stand upon the Georgia Conven
tion platform—that they are contending for those
principles w-hich have always been held clear
by State Right men of the spilth—that a state
has the right peaceably to sechde from the Union,
and consequently the doctrine of coercion by the
General Government should be repudiated; while
the constitutional Union party, by a surrender of j
those principles have become engulphcd in the i
shoals and quicksands of Federalism and con- j
sotidation. At the conclusion of his address, the ;
resolution was submitted and unanimously adopt
ed.
Dr. Joel Branham stated to the meeting that
Mr. Trippe, the nominee, was in the vilago and
would no doubt accept the nomination in person, j
anil moved that a committee of three be appoint
ed by the chair to inform Mr. Trippe of his nomi
nation and solicit his presence at the meeting.
The chairappointed Dr. J. Branham, A. S. Boid
and Gen. Bledsoe. The committee returned in |
a few moments with Mr. Trippe who accepted :
the nomination.
On motion the nomination of candidates to
represent this county in the next state legisla- i
ture was postponed until Wednesday next.
On motion it was resolved that the proceed- j
ingg of this meeting be published in this Consti- j
tutionalist & Republic and Federal Union.
Adjourned.

The Augusta Chronicle & Sentinel wants to
know of the Savannah Georgian in what speech

Georgian, replied it does not know. We can
tell both of them. Mr. Toombs made use of the

gentlemen were from Stewart county Georgia.

The Crops.— One of the editors of this paper
has just returned from a tour thiough the coun
ties of Lowndes, Butler, Monroe, and a portion
of Wilcox. In portions ol all these counties we
found both cotton and corn had suffered from
drought; and in other portions,where the seasons
had been better, we lound a fair yield of corn
and a fair prospect for cotton. The principal
portion of the time we were passing over the
country rain was falling at intervals, daily, and
great apprehensions were expressed by planters
for the portion of the cotton then open and spen
ing. The weather soon after cleared away,
however, and removed the ground of fear pre
viously entertained. The seasons this summer,
unlike those of many previous years, have best
suited the bottom and slough lauds, and almost
without exception we found them producing !
finely, while the thin uplands, (old) lands are !
yielding but a small crop. Our impression, from
observation is, that the yield of the present crop
in those portions of the State will be fully equal
to the last crop.

Augusta Market, September 10.
JIEMAKKS.—We thin' morning present our readers
with our annual statement made up to the first of
September, from which it will be seen that the Receipts
of* Cotton at Augusta and Hamburg, are only 237,889
bales, against 250,685 last year, showing a decrease of
27,806 bales. The Shipments to Savannah have been
93.214 bales, against 137,615 last year, anil to Charleston
per Railroad, 126.039 bales against 107,101 last year.—
We have had some difficulty in getting at the quantity
consumed by Factories in this State and South Carolina,
f-npfdied from this market, but believe, ff any thing, we
are under the amount actually consumed. We make
the shipments to Factories in Carolina, this year, 3,691
bales, againg 2.190 last year, and to Georgia Factories
4.304 bales this, against 3.238 last year. Tho total Ship
ments sum up ‘227,848 bates, against 250,044 last year,
i»eing a decrease of 22.196 1 wiles. The Stock of Cotton
on hau4 is heavy, amounting to 29,511 bales, against
19.470 bales'last year. The Stock of Cotton now held
in Augusta exceeds in amount that held in any sea-port
city, except New York.
The Receipts at all the ports, by our tables, (which
will not vary much from the annual statement of the
N. Y. Shipping List when made up) reach 2,359,W0
bales against 2,106,500 last yepr, being an increase of
253.040 hales. The Stock on hand is only 129.637 bales,
against 156.076 last year.--decrease 26,439 bales. The
shipments to Foreign Ports, show an increase t q Great
Brit inn of 309,239 bales; to France of 11,731, and to
Othef* Foaeign Ports of 74,549 —total increase to all
Foreign Ports 395.519 bales. To Coastwise Ports there
is a falling off 0f129,719 bales —making the increase in
Shipments to all ports only 265,800 bajes.
The Crops —As far as heard from in ttys State, are
any thing but promising. Notwithstanding there has
j boon much more laud put under cultivation this than
j last year, from present appearances the product will be
! less, particularly iu the- middle and lower part of the
j State, which constitutes the Cotton growing region.—
From Alabama, South Carolina, Mississippi and Louisi
ana, tho prospects of a good crop are gloomy and daily
growing worse.
COTTON.—Our last review left the market with a
good demand, and an upward tendency in prices—Good
: Middling being quoted at B|, and Middling Fair at 8}
cents. The demand continued gopd during the week,
and as the advices received from Europe were favora
ble, prices continued to advance daily, until the close of
bnsMiess last evening, and as will be seen by our quota
tions below, show an improvement during tho week of
full half cent on all descriptions. The advices daily
received from the interior, are mono and more unfavo
rable concerning the gr&wing crop, and as the bulk of
our present stock is held by planters, they show little or
no disposition to sell even at present advanced prices.—
There lias been but little offering, anti that little has
met with ready sale at very full prices—manufacturers
in the vicinity, having on h&nd light stocks, are the
principal buyers. It will be seen that there is a wide
rarfge iu ourquotations for Middling, but wo think “the
quotations below wilTtyve a fair index of prices at the
close of business of last evening.

DRY GOODS. —Our market this season will present
i many facilities to Merchants in the interior which they
have not enjoyed fora number of years past,. Several
of our heaviest Merchants are turning their attention
to the wholesale trade, and have purchased larger gtocks
than usual, with a view of meeting the increased de
mand. The market at present is .well supplied with all
descriptions of Dry Goods, and by the first of October,
Merchants from the interior wishing to purchase from
SSOO to SSOOO worth of Goods, will find a good assort
ment from which to mafe their selections, and terms as
low aud accommodating as in Charleston or Savannah.
HARDWARE. —We have several houses in this busi
ness. who keenjpfi hand heavy stocks, and as all of them
are d they can afford to sell cheap.
H ATS AND SHOES.—The increased demand for these
articles in our market, has caused those engaged in the
busiuess to increase their stocks, and country Merchants
will slits it to their interest to look before going further
GROCERIES —The Augusta market is acknowledged
to be a cheap market for Groceries, by almost very Mer
chant in the interior, and a majority of them purchase
their Groceries here; even when they visit Charleston
and New York for other articles. Why is this? The
reason is plain; there is a heavy capital embarked in
this line of business, and our Merchants purchase in the
i same markets as the Merchants of Charleston. They lay
in heavy stocks and get them up at cheap rates by the
river, and can sell as low even in Augusta, as* the Charles-

ton Merchauts can in their own city, for the simple rea
son that freights are generally lower to Savannah than to
Charleston. When a Merchant in the interior purchases
his supplies iu Charleston, he lia9 to get his goods up by
Railroad, aud the difference in freight between the
river and Railroad, is of itself a fair profit to our
Merchants. Our market at the present time is well
supplied with every article in tho Grocery line, and as
soon as the river becomes navigable, large additions
will be made to the stock on hand. Our Merchants cal
culate on a heavy business this fall, and have pur
chased supplies to meet it.
BACON.—The stock is light, aud the demand good,
Prices still have and upward teudeucy. In the early
part of the week, we heard of tho sale of a lot of 50

however, are now asking 12 cents cash, and 12} cents on
time, by the hhd k or larger quantity. Sides are to
talling at 121 to 13 cents. Shoulders are worth from 9
to 11 cents, aud Hams from 12J to 14 cents.
LARD.—Good Lard is very scarce and is now’ worth
by the keg 13 a 14 cents. A common article by tho
bbl. is worth 11} a 12 cents.
BAGGING.—There is but little demand, for Bagging,
and it is the general remark of our Merchants, that they
haw never had less enquiry at thfa Reason of the year.
Holders, however, ave firm in thefr prices, and refuse to
sell by wholesale at less then 15 cents for Gunuy. By
retail from stores it selling at 15} a 16 cents.
WHEAT.—Prime White is in detnaud at $1,25 per
bushel; good new Red sl.
CORN.—There is good a.supply on hand .with a limited,
demand, prices have a downward tendency. Feed
Oofu is helh at 90 a 95, and Good White, for grinding, at

two or three weeks, of any description of Bank Stock.
