Whaling Gun. —We saw yesterday, at the
store of Capt. E. W. Gardner, a very curious
contrivance for killing whales. It is a short
gun, weighing some twenty-five pounds —the
stock being of solid brass—from which a har
poon is to be fired into the animal. The
handle of the harpoon goes into the barrel of
the gun about a foot, and a line is fastened to <
it—of course outside of the gun —by which the 1
whale is to be held. There is also a bomb lance ,
for the purpose of killing the animal. The
instrument is loaded with powder, and a slow
match is led from the magazine, through the ,
handle, to the end which goes into the gun. —
When the lance is fired into the whale the
slow match ignites ; and in about half a mi
nute the fire reaches the powder in the head
of the instrument, which instantly explodes, ,
killing the animal outright. At least this is :
w hat the article is intended to do. The whole
apparatus is certainly very ingenious ; whether
or not it is really an improvement on the pre
sent mode of killing whales, is more than we
are able to sar. That is a question which must
be settled by the whalemen themselves.—Nan
tucket Inquirer.
The Telegraph. —We last week had the plea
sure of seeing the posts for this long looked
for wonder, put up. We believe they are now
in the ground, all the way through to the Rail <
Hoad in this place. It is expected that the
Telegraph will be in complete operation by the
tir?>t week in October.— Columbia South Caro
linian, Aug. 17.
Chancellor Harper. —We regret to learn, by a
letter received on Saturday last, lies danger
ously ill at Glenn Springs. We trust the wri
ter has been misinformed, ani that the valua
ble life of this distinguished Jurist may yet be 1
spared many years, to adorn the bench, to
which he has been so bright an ornament. — lb.
* W e understand, from letters received in this
place, that there have been exceedingly heavy
rains throughout Lancaster, York and Union
districts, which have done immense injury to
the Cotton crops in those sections. From the
same source, we learn that Corn looks re
markably well, especially on red lands.— lb.
A iUofi—-A row. attended with rather scri
Cun consequences, took place at a house “ doxcu
town" on Tuesday last. Some of the volun
teers, thinking themselves aggrieved by some
former treatment, went to the house and com
snenced an assault from without. They were
fired on from within, and one of the number,
a member of Capt. Grant’s company, danger
ously wounded —having received in his head,
breast and abdomen, six or eight buckshot.—
After breaking into the house, they fell upon
a volunteer not connected in any way with
tiie difficulty, and inflicted On him through (
mistake, several wounds, of which it was at 1
one time thought he could not recover. The
ringleaders were promptly arrested by the civil
authorities, and lodged in jail until next morn- ■ ,
ing. On examination before the Mayor and
Council, they were severally discharged on >
payment of all damage, and the word of their
officers that they should ba hereafter restrain
ed from too frequent opportunities to disturb
the public peace. The officers have ample
power, and it will no doubt be their pleasure,
*o to control their men as to do no damage to
the citizens and bring no further censure on
the soldiers. We are informed that both the
individuals so seriously hurt in the riot, are at
this time likely to recover. — Columbus Enquir

CHARLESTON, Aug. 18.— Cotton. —The mar
ket has been very quiet since our last. The trans
actions have been limited to some 150 bales, prices
ranging from !lj| to 13c.
ft fee .—This article within a few days has attract
ed the attention of purchasers, and some 500 to 600
tcs. have been sold at rather better prices than
those current during the previous fortnight. The
rales have been at prices ruling from ss| to sjj per
hundred.
MOBILE. Aug. 1 L— Colton. —The receipts since
Friday last amount lo only 189 bales, and exports
-for the same time are 6635 to Liverpool. 1713 to N.
York, and 402 to Providence, leaving the stock on
Land and on shipboard not cleared last evening,
36,551 bales against 9263 last season.
At the clo.e of our fast review this market was
quiet, but very firm, all parties waiting later dates
from England by the steamers Washington and Hi
bernia, tnen nearly due. These advices came to
hand on Saturday by slips from the Magnetic Tele
graph; their contents, although meagre, were, on
the whole, considered encouraging, still but 800
bales were on that day sold at very full prices.—
On Monday the letters and papers came through,
giving os full advices, and shewing the English
markets to be in a steady and strong position, with
out any positive improvement on the accounts of
the 3d July. They had. however, the effect of
causing quite an animated demand for the article
here, w hich resulted in sales that day of fully 1800
bales, alan improvement of $ a \ cent. On Tues
day less was done, only 500 bales changing hands,
but at full prices. On Wednesday, quite another
heavy day, 1800 hales again being sold, establish
ing fully the advance above quoted. O.i Thursday
800 bales sold; and yesterday (Friday) only 200,
making the total sales of the week nearly 6000
bales—a larger amount of business than has ever
been known to be done in this market at this sea
son of the year since it became a mart lor cotton.
We give our-quotations in conformity with the im
provement noted, and with a firmness on the part
of holders, unusually well established.

GRISWOLD’S IMPROVED COTTON
GINS.
THE subscriber will continue the manufacture j
of GINS on his usual extensive scale; and
embraces this opportunity to thank his numerous
I customers for their liberal patronage heretofore.—
j The estimation in which his Gins are held may be
! known from the fact of his having sold more than
two thousand within the last three years; probably
ten to one over any other factory in the Slate.—
This evidence of the superiority of his Gins, is ac
counted for, by his being the first to introduce the
late improvements, and keeping the lead, by year
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- I
ciently fast, it then only remained to make them !
more durable and convenient, which has been done
effectually, by several new improvements the rre- j
sent year; besides, he has the exclusive right ol the
State, and the privilege of other sections, to furnish
Reed’s Patent Water Boxes, which are believed to
be ten times more durable than any other, by those
who a fair trial of them, and are infalli
; bly secure against fire by firiction. His line Gins, j
i 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
point 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 an*
part of the State, except the Cherokee counties ;
where they will be left at the Rail Road depot,
most convenient to the purchaser. All warranted
to perform well if used according to the printed
directions sent with each.
