We understand (says the Chronicle of yes terday,) that the Honorable J. 11. Ingcr soli of Philadelphia, has accepted the invita tion to deliver the annual Oration before the “Phi-Kappa” and “Dbmosthenian” Societies of Franklin College, at the commencement on the first Wednesday in August next. The visit of this distinguished gentleman will be welcomed with great cordiality by the citizens of Georgia, and the friends of the College. The St. Louis Republican contains a letter j from Council Grove, Santa Fe Trail, dated July 2, which states that a detachment of troops under Lieut. Love, with a large sum 'in specie for the pay of the volunteers in Santa Fe, had been attacked by a body of 1500 Indians, led j by Mexicans. Lieut. Love had had several I encounters with the Indians on different days —and that five of his men were killed and four wounded —among the latter Sergeant Bishop, 2nd in command. Twelve or thirteen of the Indians are said to have been killed. A | body of troops under Col. Easton was not far distant, who, it was hoped, would be able to render prompt assistance. Eastern Potato Crop. The crops are restored, and the presence of an abundance of potatoes will reduce the want for grain. Os this vegetable, that is a staple of New England, arc what the Boston Adver tier says: “The farmers in Maine have been holding j back their potatoes for higher prices, but the | season getting late they are now crowding them on the market, and the supply of com mon ones is large, and very dull —25 a 30 cents per bushel is the most that can be obtained. — Chenangoes are worth 50 a6O cents The i new crop promises well all over New England, and as yet we hear of no appearance of rot.” Magniloquence. A correspondent of the New York Tribune wishing to tell that a man had committed sui cide, says that he “came to his death last week from the effects of an enormous dose of laud anum, which he purposely administered to himself with fatally felonious intentions.” One of the Mexican states is called Zacate cas, which is there pronounced Znrhy take usf The Columbus Times says—“ Mr. Chester, Agent for the Magnetic Telegraph Line through this State, has nearly completed his arrangements, for a line between this city and Macoa.

Extract of a letter received in Charleston, dated “HAVRE, July I. — The late advices from the United States, per Hibernia steamer, coupled with the favorable effect which they had produced in Liverpool, have revived the demand for Cotton in our market and, in the last two days nearly 5000 bales have changed hands, at an advance of fully If., establishing the quotations of flOl for “ordi naire” Louisiana, and 198 for “ordinaire” Uplands.

M.—The effect of the steamer’s news on the market for breadstuff’s were partially developed to-day, and the shippers are beginning to enter the market quite freely. The sales of flour amount to 10,000 barrels, at $5 to $5 25 for Ohio and Machigan. # There was considerable activity in corn, though but little firmness. About 30,000 bushels of white and yellow were sold at prices ranging from 55 for i mixed, tool cts. per bushel for round yellow, There is but little doing in rye. I uoet a sale of 1,000 bushels at 77 cents. The eotton dealers are In fine spirits, and hare been most agreeably disappointed. They calculat ed that their staple would hold its own, but to-day they demand an advance of a £ a g cents per pound advance. The Steamer Sarah Sands arrived this morning, after a passage of 1G days, she having sailed from Cork ou 3d inst. J. NEW Li. — Couo/i. —Arrived since the 9th instant, 2226 bales, Cleared in the same time 14,485 bales—making a reduction in stock of 12,259 bales, and leaving on hand, inclusive I of all on shipboard not cleared on the loth instant, a stock of 108,533 bales. Our last weekly report left the Cotton market in an exceedingly quiet state, the near approach of ' later European advices inclining parties to await i i their receipt before entering into any operations of 1 much magnitude. The same quietude character j ized the market on Saturday, only a few hundred | bales having been disposed of, and on Monday the mail came through, with a telegraphic despatch, announcing the arrival of the Caledonia at Boston, j and furnishing a brief summary of her news, which appeared favorable for Cotton, though little or noth- i log was done in this market, all parties being dis- j posed to await the arrival of their private letters and commercial circulars. These came to hand on j Tuesday, and fully confirmed the telegraphic ad- | vices, reporting an advance of in the Liverpool i market. This intelligence being favorable, and some orders appearing, business on Tuesday as- 1 sumed more activity, though it was somewhat checked by the advanced claims of holders, and about 3000 bales were disposed of. On Wed nesday and Thursday buyers came forward more j frt;ely, and fully 10,(KX) bales were disposed of, at prices still more in favor of sellers, and the rates paid exhibit an advance of a cent per ib. within the past ten days, on the low and middling qualities of Louisiana and Mississippi Cottons, to which de scriptions, the demand has been almost exclusively confined. About aJ a J of this advance has been attained since the receipt of the Caledonia’s ad vices. North Alabama Cottons have not improved { in the same ratio, and being comparatively neg lected, the rates for them are in a great measure nominal. The difficulty of procuring freight has been an obstacle to even a more active business , j than we have recorded, and yesterday this irapedi- j j raent brought the market almost to a stand, sales i • to the extent of only about 1300 bales having been | effected. There is a scarcity of vessels, and the comparatively high rates paid for Flour and Grain i ! render it impossible to ship Cotton to any conside- I rabie extent, even at some advance. The total sales of the week sum up 15,200 bales, the bulk of which has been taken for England, France and the North. NEW ORLEANS CLASSIFICATION (Assimilating to that of Liverpool.)

HAVING been for four years the Editor of the ‘'Times,” the undersigned presumes that his I readers and the Democratic Parly in Western Georgia, whose political organ and agent he has endeavored to he, are by this time sufficiently ac ; quainted with hint to know whether he is worthy j of their confidence and support as a Democratic ! Editor. It is proper to say, that when I came into the Editorial management of this paper, the estab lishment was very much depressed in point of pros perity. I saw at once that the paper was to be built up de novo, before a hope could be entertained of its ; prosperity. Its subscription list, not so large by one half as it should be, had run to weed, and was en cumbered with many bad and doubtful names.— ; This required purgation and renovation. Confidence in the stability and permanence of the paper had to be established. In short the prestige ot its success was all to be created by the exertions of myself and partners. While we have done much towards the accomplishment of the object, more remains to be I done. And it becomes necessary for me to say to my political friends, tb<t if they desire me to continue at my present post, they must give such tokens of that desire and their approbation as will ena ble me to afford to do so. The present is deem ed an auspicious time to present this subject to my political friends. Tfie Governor’s elec tion is at hand. Our candidate is of Western Georgia, “born of the Manor,” and we should take the lead in giving him a support that will ex hibit, what we who know him best, think of him. ' Popular, able, and faithful to his political principles. —George W. Towns offers - to his friends, at once, ! the strongest incentives to an active and earnest support, and a cheering guarantee of his success. To the attainment of important ends, means must always be consulted. The press and the stump are the engines of political enlightenment and the means of success in the propagation and triumph j of political principles. 1 believe I can unhesita ! tingly appeal to my course as a Democratic Editor, as a proof of ray fidelity and single-hearted pur pose to achieve the true honor and victorious suc cess of Democratic principles. By what has pass ed, 1 um willing to be judged for the future. With renewed energy and rekindled enthusiasm in the cause, I come forward to ask of the Democratic Par-* ty, such encouragement, in the unequivocal shape of a largely increased circulation, as will at the same time enable me to feel that I am both useful to my party, and true to myself and those depend- i ant upon ray exertions, in the editorial profession to which 1 am attached. With these views, the following prospectus some what varying from our usual terms is put forth, j Persons obtaining subscribers will please forward ; the names immediately.

THE Chesapeake Bay Company, in conjunc tion with the Wilmington arid Petersburg Rail Road Companies, having reduced th<eir seve ral fares one-third, from former rates, Travellers going North, can now reach Baltimore for £l4, and New York for £2O, by taking the Bay Line of Boats, arriving at the latter city as early as by any other Line, and with greater ease and comfort, as the following Schedule will show. SCHEDULE. From Charleston to Baltimore, hr the well known route, via Wilmington, Weldon, Petersburg, City Point, Old Point Comfort, Norfolk, and by the Ches ‘ apeake Bay to Baltimore/ 1 Leave Charleston in one of the Wilmington and ( Raleigh Rail Road Company’s splendid Steamer# at quarter past 3 P.

Cannon; HERALD, Capt. Bus sell; or JEWESS, Capt. Sutton; at 3, P.M., and I arrive at Baltimore next morning at 5. A; M. Fare i from Petersburg to Baltimore supper included, £4. »ln the patting forth of the above Schedule,we have been guided a id admonished by the knowledge ti e j have of what other lines have already suffered irt 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 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, East, and West. The Bay Company have beep in existance up ward of Twenty Years,and through this long period; their Boats, built expresslly for the route, have suc j cessfully run without loss of Life or Property— this fact alone, should, and we believe trill, be satis factory' to the Travelling Public, that the Chcsa- Eeak Bay Route is one of the safest in the whole miou. 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 busings? like and honorable war, 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 i choice. j Any further information will be cheerfully given and tickets can be had, by application to the" undef- I signed at the Charleston Hotel.
