A gentleman who recently arrived here
liv>m Monterey, had an interview with Gen.
Taylor immediately before ho left. The Gcu
eial told him that it was not his intention to
advance on San Luis Potosi, but that it was
his fixed determination to resign his command
on the Ist Sept, next.—Ah O. Delta , 2 din*.
I he above paragraph takes us somewhat bv
su rprisc. W e have authority to be relied upon,
next to the old General’s word of mouth, that
he will not under any circumstances resign
hi> tor run and nl the army while the war lusts;
out that he will, on the Ist of September next,
ask leave ot absence for a short time, to pay
some attention to his private affairs, which
have been much neglected by his long absence
in Mexico. There is an implication in the
above that ( ton. Taylor has a ohoice about ad
vancing on Sun Luis Potosi, which is probably
an inadvertency on the part of the Delta; for
that paper is perfectly aware that Gen. Taylor
cannot move to San Luis Potosi for w ant of
troops, much to his chagrin and mortification.
A tit tonal of yisti-r iay.
The gentleman who communicated to us
the statement published above, had it from
the General’s “word of mouth.” Who is the
National's authority for its denial, if denial it
be? Wo have now, however, ourselves to
make a counter-statement to both that of our
own and the National. Gen. Taylor told a
gentleman who conversed with him four days
subsequently to the departure of Capt. Pike
from Monterey, that he had just received ad
vices from Washington, by w hich he was satis
fied that the government was doing all it could
to furnish him with the necessary men and
means to enable him to advance on San Tails
Potosi; that he felt assured, enough of both
would shortly arrive; and that, as soon a-; they
dkl arriv'd 1 , he was determined to march for
ward. This may appear a rather abrupt change
of purpose; but w ith that w e have nothing to
d< > —the facts in both instances arc as we have
stated them.
The Georgia Battalion and Capt Tatt nail.
The Columbus Times of the 22d ult, says:
Since our last, Capt. Gauldon has reached this
rendezvous with a fine company of men from
Stewart county. They have been mustered
into the service. This makes three companies
on the ground. Capt. 1 .oyall's “Horse,” Capt.
Nelson’s “Greys,” from Muscogee, and Capt.
Gankleu’s iufautrv from Stewart.
W e wonder if this is the battalion which
Capt, Tattnall wished to command: Wo heard
when this gallant officer was in this city, that
he intended to proceed to Washington, and
ask the authority of the President to raise a
battilion of riflemen in his native State, Geor
gia. Tired of the inactivity to which our squad
ron in the gulf seems condemned, by an evil
fortune, Caj t, Tattnall had obtained the per
mission of the Department to accompany Gen.
Scott to the city of Mexico, when, unfortunate
ly, he was severely wounded iu the affair at
Tuxpan, and was compelled to return to the
Vailed States to nurse his wound. Put as
soon as he arrived here, he began to‘cast about
for an excuse to get back to the scene of war,
when the idea struck him to organize a rilie
battalion of volunteers for immediate service.
Tie immediately started for Washington to
carry out his views,—We are curious to know
the result of his application. If the gallant
soldiers of Georgia are desirous of being led by
;>s brave and as .skilful an officer as ever drew
sword—if they desire to reap the first laurels,
cud to be,the foremost iu every conflict, they
will to select as their colonel the gallant
Commander of the MUsquito Licet. —A. th

Eds. Delta.—After a year of pinching scar
city, both in the way of money and provisions,
in this portion of the .State, a bountiful Pro*
vidence begins now to cheer us with bright
prospects of an over-abundance in the coming
crop. The seasons, so far, have been remar
kably propitious for the growth of cotton, and
if the worm should not again visit ns, the
Crop will never have been better. In some
sections it has licen rather dry for corn; but
still, a general rain which is now falling and
in the very hick of time, dispels all fears as to
ft plentiful supply of the “staff of life”—both
for man and beast. In short, 1 have never
seen a finer prospect for a good crop than is
now presented in this section of the State*
The Season.
We have had another rainy week, arid a had
one for destroying grass. All the risers are full,
but the rains have been so gradually as to leave
a strong hope that we may escape a freshet.
The Corn and Rice crops look well. The sea
son is excellent for putting down the slip crop
for small potatoes. On the whole the prospect
is a good one for an average crop of Rice, Corn
and Potatoes. —Georgetoum Observer.

■ Another Severe Case of Asthma Cured by
Wistar’s Balsam.
Skth W . Fuwlk:—Dear Sir—Having for a
long while been troubled with Asthma in its worst
form, and after having tried various remedies, all
to no effect, I bought of your agent, A. Rowe, one
bottle of the Balsam ol \\ iid CherTv, which relieved
me very much. I have continued to use the same,
as the disease returns upon me, and find it always
relieves when nothing else will; and further, T have
no doubt, could I have had the Wild Cherry in the

entirely cured me. 1 can confidently recommend
it’ as a very valuable medicine for all lung com

LATEST HATES FROM LIVERPOOI JCNE 19.
LATEST HATES FROM HAV RH JUNE 16.
Extract of a letter ret ired in this city, dated
•‘HAVRE, June 15.— Cottons. —Since our last re
port, an advance has taken place in Wheat and
Flour, which has had the effect of producing a de
pression in business generally speaking, and (he de
cline that had manifested itself at the date of our
preceeding circular, lias made further progress
within the past se’unight. The total absence of
speculative spirit, coupled with the great disincli
nation on the part of the trade, to operate beyond
the most urgent necessities, will account for the
‘ want of animation that has predominated in the
transactions, which would have been of a still more
j limited,character, had not a slight export demand
come in aid of the daily sales. The discouraging
tenor of the accounts from England has contributed
in a great measure towards the pressure in the mar
ket, and to fliis may be chiefly ascribed the decline
of about f. 3 that occurred in American Cottons,
which continued up to liist Saturday, when a revi
val in the buying created a better feeling, and pri
ces regained f.l a 2 of the ground they had previ
ously lost. Since the opening of the present week*
the sales have been to a moderate extent, at well
supported rates, and should tire intelligence from
Liverpool, as well as from our internal markets, an
nounce that a decline in the Corn marts is progres
sing. the confidence would in all probability be re
stored, and business assume a more wholesale ap
pearance. We are deprived of any recent advices
from the United States, but are hourly looking for
those by tlie Britannia steamer of 31st ult., which
are expected to contain intelligence of a peculiarly
interesting nature. Sales 8662 bales, of which 1239
were Upland, f.BB a 98,30. The imports during the

8, A. M. Leave City Point immediately, on
board of the CURTIS PECK, Capt. Davis; or
ALICE, Capt. Brough; (two of the swiftest and
most comfortable River Boats, that run on the

arrive at Baltimore next morning at 5. A: iM. Fare
from Petersburg to Baltimore supper included, $4.
jin the putting forth of the above Schedule,we have
been guided and admonished by the knowledge we
have of what other lines have already suffered in
giving the Traveller false information respecting
their Schedule time, and have, to the best of our
knowledge and belief, made an average time of the
arrival and departure between Charleston hud
Baltimore, by the Bay Route, for the last two
months, during which period there has not been a
single failure, by the Boat, to arrive at Baltimore
in time to take the Morning Train for Philadelphia
and the several Routes going North, South, Last,
and West.
The Bay Company have been in existence up
ward of Twenty Years,and through this long period,
their Boats, built expfesslly for the route, have suc
cessfully run without loss of Life or Property'—
this fact alone should, and we believe will, be, satis
factory to the Travelling Public, that the Cliesa
pcak Bay Route is one of the safest in the whole
i Union.'
w e were prepared and fully expected to meet
i with strong opposition from the .Monopoly Line, but
i had hoped that the warfare would have been con
i ducted in a business like and honorable way. and
j that their Cards would have contained none of that
; misrepresentation and false inuendoes with which
j they are Idled against the Bay Line. However, we
j cure not, knowing that we have the cheapest and
most pleasant route; pledging ourvelyes to convey
; the travelling public by our scheldule,we are willing
to abide the issue and leave the result to their
i choice. <?
Any further information will he cheerfully given
1 and tickets can be had, by application to the uader
i signed at the Charleston Hotel.
