MACON, July 13. — Cotton. —We have no change
note in this article since our last. We have not
heard of any sales during the week. We quote
extreme at 10 all cents.
Flour brings readily £3 per cwt. Cnrn 45 to 50
rts. per bushel. Bacon, hog round, 8 a 8£; Hams
10 a 104.
CHARLESTON, July 15.— ('otfon. —Sales yes
terday about 800 hags I pland, at former prices—
ranging from K g a IljJ.
Nothing done in Rice.
NEW Cotton. —Arrived |
s’nee the 2d instant, 862 bales. Cleared in the
same time 17,081 bales—making a reduction in
stock of 1b,210 hales, and leaving on hand, inclusive
i>t ail on ship board not cleared on the Oth instant,
a stock of 120,792 hales.
Ju our report of Saturday last, the ,3d instant, we
had occasion to notice the existence of a very fair 1
demand for Cotton, the concession in prices having ;
brought forward buyers, principally for England, I
who. together with shipments on planter’s account,
relieved the market during the week of some 25.-
<*oo hales. This redaction of stock, and the claim
ot shipmasters for some advance in the rates of j
freights, checked business on Saturday, and since
then tin* market has not exhibited any considera
ble degree of activity, the daily sales having scarce
ly averaged 15(H) bales. Indeed during the past
two days the sales have barely amounted to 700
bales, the near approach of later European ac
counts inclining parties to await their receipt be
fore proceeding further in their operations. The
rainy weather, too, is an obstacle to activity, as it
interferes materially with the receiving and ship
ping. The entire sales of the week may be put
down at 8500 bales, taken mostly for England, with
some parcels for France and the Continent, and
prices have been steadily maintained at about the
range of our quotations of Saturday last, which we
therefore continue. The demand has been con
fined almost exclusively to Louisiana and Mississip- '
pi Cottons. Alahanias and Tennessee*, which form
I tie bulk of the stock, being still Comparatively neg
lected.

own side, and not mine. This medicine is now i
found in all part- of this and the adjoining States, |
where it is recommended by the most respectable 1
families, and the best recommendation is, it is prot- |
ing itself to he an infallible remedy for Fever and !
Ague. It is my own discovery, and is one of the
best medicines ever invented for this dreadful dis* !
ease—curing in twelve hours. Prepared and sold

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
i knowledge and belief made an average time of the
I arrival and departure between Charleston and
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, Lust,
and West.
The Bay Company have been in existance up
ward of Twenty Years,ami through this long period,
their Boats, built expresslly for the route, have suc
cmr-fully run without loss of Life or Property 4
this fact alone should, and we believe will, he iatis
j factory to the Travelling Public, that the Chesa
(»eak Bay Route is one of the safest in the whole
Jnion.
We were prepared and fully expected to meet
with strong opposition from the Monopoly Line, but
had hoped that the warfare would have been con
ducted in a business like and honorable way, and
that their Cards would have contained none of that
misrepresentation and false inuendoes with which
they are filled against the Bay Line. However, we
care not, knowing that we have the cheapest and
most pleasant route; pledging ourvelves to convey
the travelling public by our scheldule.we are willing
to abide the issue and leave the result to their
choice.
Any further information will he cheerfully given
and tickets can be had, by application to the under

GRISWOLD'S IMPROVED COTTON
GINS.
rjIHE subscriber vHll continue thfe manufacture
A of GINS on his usual extensive scale; and
embraces this opportunity to thank his numerous
customers for their liberal patronage heretofore.—
The estimation in which his Gifts ftrfe held hiny be
known from the fact of his having sb‘ld rftorfe than
two thousand within the last three yfedrs; probably
ten to one over any other factory in the State.—
This evidence of the superiority of his Gins, is ac
counted for, by his being the first to introduce the
late improve uents, and keeping the lead, by vfear
ly adding new ones. His first and second improve
ments, made the quality of cotton perfect, though
some were rather slow, his third made them suffi
ciently fast, it then only remained to make them
more durable and convenient, which has been done
effectually, by several new improvements the pre
sent year; besides, he has the exclusive right of the
State, and the privilege of other sections, to furnish
Reed’s Patent Water Boxes, witich are believed to
be ten times more durable than any other, by those
who have made a fair trial of them, and are infalli
bly secure against fire by firiction. His fine Gins,
will gin Mastodon Cotton as well as any Saw Gin
can. His agents will visit planters generally, and
exhibit specimens of his late improvements, and
jioint out their advantages, in time, for all to en
gage, and be supplied before next ginning season,
or, engagements can be made by letter, directed to
him at Clinton, Jones county, Georgia. Gins, will
be delivered at the purchaser’s residence in any
part of the State, except the Cherokee counties,
where they will be left at the Rail Road depot,
most convenient to the purchaser. AJI warranted
to perform well if used according to the printed
directions sent with each.
