CCPAs the Indian formerly roamed
over the mountains of Peru, unconscious of the
vast wealth that lay hidden beneath its surface;
ho, till lately, have we strolled through our native
forests, ignorant of the fact that they contain in
gredients which, in hands skilled by study and ex
perience, form by far the most efficacious remedy
for all kinds of Pulmonary and Liver affections
known to the world; yet this is true. Wild Cherry
bark and Far have, indeed, been usedjbefore, but
their virtues could not be fully appreciated, be
cause they were not fully extracted. Dr. Wistar
has done this—and his BALSAM OF WILD
CHLRR\ (which contains also an extract of Tar)
is astonishing every body, especially the M. D’s.
by its wonderful efficacy in Asthma, Liver Com
plaints, Coughs, Colds, Bleeding of the Lungs,
first stages of Consumption, etc. This Balsam is
made from materials which nature has placed in
all northern latitudes as an antidote for the dis- I
eases caused by cold climates.
“Nature is but the name for an effect
Whose cause is God.”
Let us not neglect her plainest dictates. Al
ways be sure to get the genuine article, as spuri
ous “Balsams” etc. are afloat.

AUGUSTA MARKET.
Wednesday night, Oct. 7th, 1846.
COTTON.—The “Hibernia’s” news received
by last evening's mail, gave a fresh impulse to
our market to-day, and sales were effected at an
advance of i on all grades, on the prices of yes
terday. The letters by the Hibernia, have just
come to hand by this evening’s mall: they repre
sent the Liverpool market as having been very ac
tive during the six days preceding her departure,
with sales of 83,000 hales, at a full farthing ad
vance on the rates furnished us by the “Great
Western.” The range of sales of new Cotton in
our market to-day has been from 84 (d) 94c. Old
sells a little lower.

There has been a good demand for cotton all the
week, and sales have reached 1400 bales, 500 of
which were of the old crop, ordinary at Bc. and
middling at 81c. Os the new cotton, 900 bales
changed hands at 9 a 91c. for good middling to
middling fair, and at 94 a9l for fair. The princi
pal sales have been made within the last two days.
Transactions are yet too limited to admit of our
usual line of quotations. The market is very firm
and closes with an upward tendency.
We have nothing of a more favorable character
in regard to the incoming crop, except from three
or four counties on the Coosa, where the worm
has been less destructive but where the production
in the aggregate is not considerable; and we regret
to add that the accounts from South Carolina and
some parts of Georgia are less favorable than those
hitherto received.— Merchants and Planters Prices

Another New Line Ship. —We have dai
ly evidences of an increase in the trade of
Charleston, in the multiplication of the vari
ous means for transporting merchandise and
passengers between our city and other com
mercial marts.
Yesterday we had the gratification of ex
amining the new ship Columbia , just added
to the Commercial Line of packets running
between this port and New York, and were
much pleased with the elegant manner in
which her cabin was fitted up. Every thing
like convenience and comfort has been look
ed to in its arrangement, and the most fasti
dious could find but little cause to complain.
The Columbia is commanded by Capt.
George Robinson.— Charleston Courier.
The Old Theatre —This property situated
at the West end of Broad-street, was pur
chased a few 7 days since from its former pro

intention of the Reverend gentleman, at some
future period, to establish there a Roman
Catholic College and Seminary.— Charleston

Extract of a letter received in this city, dated
LIVERPOOL, Sept. 18, 1846.
The favorable accounts of the growing Cotton
Crop in the United States brought by the Boston
steamer of Ist inst., together with the further rise
in prices in the American ports have produced con
siderable excitement in our cotton market and a
further advance of fully id. per lb. The sales for
the week ended this evening have amounted to
81,150 bale* of which 41,000 have been taken on
speculation and 1800 for export. The American
descriptions consist of 7450 Upland at 4| a 54; 39,-
730 Orleans at 4 a 74; 15,670 Alabama and Mobile
at 4 a 51; and 680 Sea Island at 9 a 21d. per lb.—
Fair Upland is now quoted 54; Fair Orleans 54;
and Fair Mobile Sid. per lb. The future course of
the market must depend mainly on the future ac
counts of the American crop, for though the trade
in goods and yarns has improved in the last month
and some further advance has followed this move
ment in our market, it is not equivalent to the rise
in the raw material; and is founded on the appre*
hension of a short crop of cotton and not from
amendment in either the home trade or foreign de
mand.
The Corn markets are rather lower since the
departure of the last steamer and comparatively
quiet, without any very decided change in feeling.
Western Flour duty paid is now 30 s. a 30s. 6d,
and Philadelphia and Baltimore 29 s. a 29 s. 6d;
Sour in bond 22 s. 6d. a 23 s, per bbl. The duty
still remains at the maximum of 10 s. per quarter
for Wheal and 6 s. per bbl. for Flour, but must soon
be lower. Indian Corn fully maintains the late
advance, indeed is rather higher, being worth 43 s.
a 44 s. per quarter for yellow and 44 s. a 46 s, for
white. The interior Corn markets begin to be
more liberally supplied with Wheat and are tend
ing downwards. The Potato crop in some sections
of the country is stated to be less injured than was
represented previously, while from other districts
the accounts are even worse than before.
Yours respectfully,
BROWN, SHIPLEY & CO.
CHARLESTON, Oct. 7.— Cotton. —The trans
actions on Saturday last were confined to some 270
bales. It was generally believed that we were on
the eve of the receipt of later advices from the
other side, and hence the quiet state of the market.
Sunday’s mail furnished us the accounts per the
Great Western. Although there was no positive
change in prices, some descriptions exhibited an
“upward inclination.” Whether the demand
which prevailed on Monday was in anticipation
of a positive improvement, we will not undertake
to say; but, certain it is, the market was some
what excited, resulting in the sale of 1400 bales,
at very full rates. Yesterday, the telegraphic ad
vices per the Hibernia came to hand, shewing an
improvement of a farthing in Cotton; and, during
the day, near 1600 bales were sold, at an advance
of a full 4c. over the quotations given in our report
of Saturday morning. The sales comprise: 11
bales at 74; 59 at 74; 51 at 8; 40 at 84; 6 at 84; 56
at 84; sat 84; 92 at 84; 284 at 84; 97 at 8?; 323 at
9; 386 at 94; 190at9|; 333 at 94; 211 at 94; and
