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. ZACHERIAH EDMONDSON, Ch ; n. R. R.

The Augusta Chronicle & Sentinel wants to know of the Savannah Georgian in what speech or letter, Mr. Toombs used this expression. The Georgian, replied it does not know. We can tell both of them. Mr. Toombs made use of the remark to two gentlemen, then of his own poli tical party (whig,) in Washington City. The gentlemen were from Stewart county Georgia. —Columbus Times. Montgomery, Sept. 6. 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. H 11 111 « -L" FUNERAL NOTICE.

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.

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- CLAYTON & BIGNON, WHOLESALE AND RETAIL DEALERS IN READY-MADE CLOTHING, HATS, CAPS, TRUNKS, &C. 197 METCALF’S RANGE, BROAD STREET) AUGUSTA, GEORGIA.

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 hhds. ribbed Sides at 12 cents on time. Most holders, 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.

STOCKS.—We have heard of no sale within the past two or three weeks, of any description of Bank Stock. EXCHANGE.—Wo have no change to notice in the rates for Northern Exchange, which continue at } per cent. prem. for Sight Checks on New -York and other Northern cities. On Charleston aud Savannah our Banks are drawing at par. FREIGHTS.—Our river is again low.
