We have been informed through a re
liable source, that during last week, a
parcel of genteel clothing was found con
cealed in the 12tli‘ district of Meriwether
county. Among other at tides was u
shirt and undershirt, considerably stained
with hlood, with a luroe cut across Iho
abdomen on the left side and a bullet
hole penetrating the right side, in the re
gion of the navel, the cut and hole cor
responding in both garments. Tiiere was
some fine jewelry wrapped op with the
clothing, consisting of breastpin, shirt
studs, &c. Tl e name of‘lL fl. Chil
ton” was marked on the shirt. The pre
sumption is, that a foul murder has been
committed on a person by that name. It
is further stated that a gentleman by that
name passed through some time ago on
his wav to New Orleans, and lost a trunk
in that neighborhood, and was expected
to return about this time in pursuit of his
property. —Grijjin {Geo) Jeffersonian,

Counterfeiters Arrested.
We leai n iroin a letter tuai we have seen
from a correspondent of the Bank of Charles
ton, residing in N tshville, (Tenn,) that ‘die
had succeeded in arresting and convicting
pome 10 or 12 counterfeiters in that county,
among'l whom were some of the most noto
rious and expert swindlers, as well as the
most extensive operators in spurious money
in the United S.ales. With some twenty
other philes, finished and unfinished, is the
Eight Dollar plate of the Bank of Charleston. '
an impression taken from which a; compan es
the letter, and is now in our possession. It
is the sic simile of the counterfeits of that
denomination which we have heretofore
noticed.
We also learn that two other parties—
probably of the same gang —have been taken
up and arc now in jail in North Carolina—
one in Stokes, tlie other in Ashe county.
The exertions of those engaged in ferreting
out t/iOsC depredators leave been, we are in
formed, handsomely remunerated, and they
deserve, in addition, the thanks of the com
munity generally. — Charleston ( Courier , 12 th.

NEW YORK. Feb. 9, 8 p. m.—The Stock mar
ket to day is rather more buoyant and prices have
an upv\ard tendency.
Nothing new t • report in Flour. Dealers are
holding off for the foreign news, now in nnentarily
expected. The prices of yesterday are fully main
tained. Genesee is held at $6,874 to 87. South
ern flour is north $6.50 to $6,68J. Sales mode
rate. Rye Flour $4.87? a 85.
Sales us white and yellow Corn, amounting to
about CO.OOO bushels, at 95 to 94c. Oats continue
to sell at 47c; Rye 95 to 93c. Whisky has declin
ed to2Beper gallon in bids. There is less activi
ty in Cotton, and prices are still slightly on the de
cline.
The weather is mild and agreeable.
The European news is anxiously looked for.—
No sign of the steamer yet.
MONTGOMERY. Feb. O.—Colfon.—TUc mar
ket here is dull and inactive. The news of the
decline of Icin the Mobile market, lias produced
its effect here. There is very little doing, and
that little at a decline. We hear of no sales high
er titan 11c.
APALACHICOLA, FEB. 6.—Cotton—Tele
graphic news of the arrival of the “Hibernia’*
reached us on Tuesday, but in consequence of the
non-urrfval of the letters and circulars till yester
day, there was but little done, Tuesday, Wednes
day, or Thursday. The few sales made were at
iiregular prices generally however at 4 to }c. ad
vance. Yesterday after the mail was distrihm »d,
on active demand sprung up. and rising 20 0 bales
changed hands, principally taken by "tie operator.
The advance on prices, previous to the arrival of
the steamer, is foil ic.; 104 for Good .Middling, be
ing about the prices paid yesterday. To-day there
is a pause in the market, the sales only amounting
to a few hundred hales. On hand ami on ship
board not cleared 37,972 hales.
Freights. —V easels continue very scarce, the ar
rivals from sea this week being confined to a cou
ple of schooners, one of which has been taken for
Baltimore at 1 1-J6c. Vessels loading for New
York have obtained Ic. for small lots to fill up.—
No new engagement to Boston. Foreign Freights
remain unchanged.
NEW ORLEANS, Feb. Arrived
since the 2d inst., 14,463 bales. Cleared in the
same time 6565 hales—making an addition to stock
of 789:1 hales, and leaving on band, inclusive ©f
all on shipboard not cleared on the sih instant, a
stuck of 207.507 bales.
the day of making up our Inst report, the
I Baltimore papers came to hin 1 by mail, contain
ing a telegraphic summary of the accounts by the
Hibernia, but in so meagre and uncertain a shape
1 that they had the effect to suspend all bo-mess in
j I the cotton market, and we left all parlies most
1 anxiously looking for reliable advices through the
I commercial circulars and correspondence. On
t | Wednesday both buyers and sellers were still kept
i in suspense, the mail having failed beyond Cliai les
i ton, ami only two or three lots, amounting in all
’ i to some 1200 hales, were disposed of. at a cocside
; i rahle decline from previous prices, the ma ket he
| log unsettled by the delay in the transmission of
: i ilie foreign advices, and by the apprehension, gen
t crally entertained, that they would prove much
I I-ss encouraging lhaft had been confidently expect
! cd. On Thursday morning the mail came through,
’ { bringing the commercial circulars and correspon
dence. Notwithstanding the- favorable com.dex
. ion of these accounts, compared with what was
apprehended on receipt ofthe telegraphic stimma
t i ry, the correspondence was distributed at so late
j an li >tir in the (iay that very few parties appeared
to be prepared to enter the market, and the sales
were restricted to a few lots, embracing only about
1200 hales, at irregular rales, but stilt considera
bly in favor of buyers, compared with the Ir.msac
’ tions which look place immediately after the ar
> rival of the Themis. Yesterday if was supposed
that the market would open with some activity,
hut the day passed away without any business of
i much importance being transacted, only about
| 2000 hale- having changed hands, so far as we
j could learn. We understand that there were of
! fers to some extent in the morning, on the part of
exporters, hut at rates below what holders seemed
willing to accept.and subsequently the advanced
rates claimed for freight (eqnil to about per lb)
so unsettled the views of all parties that the day
closed without any established market, and v\e
find it necessary to'omit quotations altogether, tiie
few transactions that have taken place being at
such irregular rates as to fnrni-fi no reliable guid*
for arranging a new scale of prices. 1 lie. tola!
sales of the past three days have barely reached
j 4400 hales, and fur the week only 54(H) bales.
