Dec. 4. Cotton market, it will be recollected, had heeu very quiet during the week ending 26th ultimo. The unfa vorable advices brought over by the steamer Aca dia reached us on the previous Monday, and from that time until the close of business on Friday, a struggle had been gm’ng on among the trade rela tive to what should be the governing rates for the article. Purchasers were claiming a heavy con cession, but factors, whose stocks were very' light, and completely under their control, would not yield to their demands, and hence the compara tively stagnant state of the market during the week. Similar offers were renewed on Saturday last, but as holders would not let themselves down from the position they had thus assumed,the trans- i actions were limited to some 300 hales. On Mon- ■ dav good inqnuiry prevailed, but buyers were com- j pelled ta advance their figures, and during the dav i about 1200 bales changed hands. On Tuesday the demand yyas rather active than other- i wise, as upwards of 1300 bales were sold.— The transactions of these two days were at an ! advance of ;J to j|c. above the offers of the previ ous week, establishing the following quotations at the close of business on the latter day, viz : Mid dling to good middling a7; middling fair and fair and fully fair 7g a 7£. During Wednesday and | Thursday the market may be said to have beeu i brought to a stand, as the sales did not exceed 100 bales. \ esterday there was some little inquiry for j the article, and between 5 and 600 bales were ta- { ken. As the week drew to a close the market j was decidedly heavy, and the sales, particularly j on the last day, were made at about ]c decline on tome grades on the prices current during the ex citement of Tuesday last. The common qualities have been neglected. The transaciions of the week reach 3600 bales, against the receipt in the same time of IGI3 bales. The actual transactions •re as follows : —29 bales at 6j; 161 at 6L 28 at Gy, 852 at 7; 118 at 7|; 637 at 7fj and 600 bales at The deficiency in the receipts at this port, as compared with the previ ous year, is 76,918 bales. We have no transac tions to report in-Long Cotton. Corn. —The receipts of Country and Georgia con tinue light, and former prices have been sustained. The receipts by the Rail Road reach 3003 bushels. Two cargoes, comprising about 3400 bushels, one of which is prime Flint, have been received from North Carolina, and sold at prices ranging from7o to 72c. per bushel. W Flour. —The Flour market has been very’ quiet during the week. The stock of Country Flour is on the increase, and the prices current at the opening otthe week have with difficulty been sus- j tained. We would refer to our quotations for the | extremes of the market, but would remark that > the sales since our last have been within the range | 'tjf s3jfc to $6 per barrel. There is no Baltimore on | sale, and present quotations are nominal. Receiv- i «d by Rail Road SOObbls.

Dec. 1— FACTS WORTH KiVOWiWcT’” IF is now universally admitted that the mysterious power of Galvanism has an important and won derful effect on the animal economy; in tact, the whole Nervous or Vital System has been likened to a Galvanic Battery, of which the Brain is the great Centre, the Spinal Column, the connecting j chaiu, and the countless Nerves which ramify from this important structure, the conducting wires whereby the generated influence is brought to every jiortion of the animal Irame. This is not a fanctfui theory, but a positive and unquestionable fact, which can be most conclusively demonstrated. It is therefore no matter of astonishment that the ' 1 new and beautiful application of this wondrous I agent, as developed bv DS,. CHRISTIE’S GAL VANIC RINGS, BELTS, BRACELETS, 6c c., ' should be of such vast benefit in many of the most I afflicting diseases to which »« are subject, in the long train of Nervous Complaints, its effects are al most magical, and the most severe cases of Para lysis, Epileptic Fits, Dyspepsia, Bronchitis, Tic Do lorenx, Neuralgia, and many other derangements of the nervous system, readily yield to the efficacy j i of Christie s Galvanic articles and remain per manently cured. Severe cases, in which benefit was unexpected, are often as completely relieved as others.

Dec. 5 OAKLAND INSTITUTE, CLASSICAL BOARDING-SCHOOL. fIIHE UNDERSIGNED, Rector and Proprietor X of the above Institution, relies upon the citi : zens of his native State for a liberal share, of pat- j I ronage. His SCHOOL has been established to , ! meet the views of those, who. like himself, prefer j I to remove their sons from the contagion of evil ! j example, and the manifold temptations which beset them in towns and cities. The course of instruc tion will be such as to supersede, to a considerable extent, the necessity of a collegiate education:—or to prepare his pupils thoroughly for an after course of either collegiate or professional instruction.— ’ Fifteen years of successful experience in his busi- i Jiess, costly buildings erected at his private ex pense, anew and superior Chemical and Philosophical Apparatus, arid a LIBRARY of valuable books of reference, designed to facilitate and promote the progress of i his pupils, constitute a part of his claims to the j support of the public. Without an assistant, his ; School will be strictly limited to 25 pupils; with one, to 35. A fee of £BO per term of 5 months, j covers all expenses of board, tuition, washing, fuel i and lights. The fee for the first terra, payable in advance; for subsequent terms, at the close there of. or upon the pupil withdrawing from School.— j No pupil received for less than a term, and every ! entry being understood to be a term, except in [ cases of a special agreement for a longer time, a liability for the whole fee of £OO will be under stood to attach immediately upon, and by virtue of the entry. The first term of 1848, wiil commence on the first Monday in February next Letters addressed to the undersigned, at Oakland, near • Cartersvilie, Cass county', Ga., will receive prompt j attention. Wanted, an assistant capable of teaching the j French and Spanish languages, and aLo the higher J branches of Mathematics, or the French and Mathematics. S. FOUCHE. j The Savannah Georgian is re-quested to give the j above two insertions per month for two months, j and forward the papers containing it with an ac- ; g unt for payment. IfwlstusS Oct. 24 OXFORD FEMALE SCHOOL. THE EXERCISES OF THIS SCHOOL will begin on the Second Monday in Janna- j i ry, 1848, under the following Teachers, viz: Pro fessor O. L. SMITH. Principal; Miss C. FOWLER. Assistant in the Literary Department; Miss S, E. MELL, Instructress in Music. The course of study will embrace all the English Branches taught in the best Female Schools, to- i gether with the Latin, Greek and French Lan guages. The experience of the Teachers, the 1 unquestionable health of the village, its retired sit ; uation, the moral and religious character of its citizens, all combine to recommend this Institu tion to public patronage. The Academy is situ ate in the most pleasant and retired part of the village, convenient to good families, in which j ! board can be obtained on reasonable terms. A ■ number of pupils can be accommodated in fami- 1 j lies with the female Teachers, where they will 1 | enjoy the benefit of their society and supervision, j The rates of Tuition are such as are common in ; schools of a similar character.
