The regulations of the Treasury Depart- ! tnent only allow weighers of cotton fifteen j cents per bale. If more lias been charged | tlic parties have the right to demand its j Ttturn, and if they refuse, to have them j arrested. If the planter or merchant f urh- I ishes the scales and the hands for weighing i tlie cotton, they cannot charge anything I legally. ' Cotton Factor} at Green’s Cut. We learn that a meeting was held on ! Friday at Green’s Cut for the purpose of organizing a Cotton Mamifacturing Com-f pany. We have not learned the result of j the meeting, but earnestly wish the move rnent success. There is no held of invest ment so promising for the surplus funds of j farmers —who arc so fortunate as to have a j surplus—and we confidently expect to see factory companies organized ia every j county in this State. General Metaw*. Wo are gratified to be aide to state that 1 this distinguished ex-General of the Con- | federate service, and an esteemed fellow- j citizen, ami Clerk, elect, of the Superior | Court of this county, has received from , President Johnson, through tlie hands of | General Tillson, a full and free pardon. Tlie friends of General Me Laws through out the country will he rejoiced to hear that by tills action of the president, the General has liecn restored to the duties and emoluments of his office, of which lie Inc for several months been deprived under i orders from the War Department. Down with the Dust. Long faces and dirty faces may every j day be seen standing along the curbstones, I surveying and breathing and tasting 1 the clouds of dirt that float through the I biting October air. It Is now “a consider- j able length of period” since there has been j rain, and according to the Almanac still ! other days of wind and dust are in store— dust in the parlor—dust on the curls and ; waterfalls and rustling Hilks of the gay i promr-nnder; dust in the eyes and throat j and lungs—dust everywhere! A more ! rusty looking set of dirt eaters nover were seen than are those who venture out in tho j dusty hazo that envelopes tho city from j morning until night. Oakwood Memorial Association. Homo time since wo published an appeal j in behalf of the “Oakwood Memorial As- | sociatlon,” of Richmond, the object of , which is to raise funds to mark the graves j of tiie Confederate dead. Wo are pleased to learn from tho following receipt, that | Augusta has not been indifferent to the j appeal of the ladies of Richmond: “Received of Mrs. M. M. Walton six lain- | droii and ton dollars,lsolfi,) contributed by ; the citizens of Augusta lor tho Oakwood ; Memorial Association. Mns. M. 11. Smith, ; Pres’dt Ladies M. A. for C. I), of O. Mild.

The Nashville papers urge the impor- ] tance of having metal roofs, on all houses | within tho lire limits of tho city. They state that in tho late flro largo' numbers of j houses some disatneo from the conflagra tion, caught in tin* roof, and tho dostrue- ; tlon of the greater portion of tho city was ; prevented alone by the vigilance of citi- | zons who watched their roofs and put out I tho files as they caught. The suggestion of tho papers in reference to that city, applies with equal force to all others. Fires are becoming of such frequent occurrence ae to render all possible precaution neces sary. Tlie Duty of Young Men In theHouth. Tho Southwestern, ajourr.nl published al Shreveport, Louisiana, in the course of an article upon tho wants of tho South, urges the young men of that sciHioii to dcVoto their attention to agriculture, and thus take the places of tho thousands of i'reed mcn who have left tho Southern States or been k lied during tho war. Iturgesithcm to prepare, during the coming winter, for tho putting in of crops in the spring upon tho rich but idle acres of tho South. Says tho Southwestern: “Wo have too many 1 stout young men in tho South, shamoless j burdens on the brawn and muscle of better j incii, who ride the laborer as the old man of the sen fastened himself 011 tho back of HIII bad lho Sailor. It ia time that they j woif* shaken oil and made to sweat for themselves.” Negro I'.migration. The colored people of Nashville ro- I contly held a meeting to consider - tho propriety of going to tho coun try. They wore addressed by Judge Luwrenco of the Freedman’s Bureau, who | advised thorn toquit the uncertain employ ment all'orded in town, and get homes in lho country. Another meeting is to be 1 hold to further tho object of this meeting. : Sueh a movement in Augusta would great ly promote tho comfort of a largo class of freed people, who get only irregular 0111 ploymont, and have none of the comforts j of a nettled homo. They came to the city ; “when freedom came about,” believ ing it the veritable laud of promise ; | but they are too numerous to find profit- I able employment, and many of thorn an* j sincerely anxious to return to the old I plantation. There aro others who have j become confirmed in town vices, and who ! oscilate between vagrancy and tbo chain i gang, who ought to bo sent out oftown ;aud j it is believed that it would be a sal atari arrangement, if the law will allow it—to 1 hire those convicted of vagrancy out on ! plantations instead ot putting them in the chain gang. The cold weather is coming ! on, and tho comfort of the froedmen. 1 as well qs the good of tho community, de mand that some provision shall bo made i for their comfort, which will, as far as j may lie, prevent them from being a charge j upon tlie Government or the community. On Cows. The Indianapolis Herald thus discourses on cows. Our city “dads" do not allow such privileges—oh, no! "A sleek, well-fed producer of the ‘lacteal' fluid, be slut Devon, Durham, Avyshire or scrub, is a sight always grateful to the eyes of lovers of milk. Wo have always admired cows for the mildness of their manners, the amiability of their tempers, and fko coolness with which they take things generally, and are consequently very much gratified to see that they are being allowed the ‘privilege' of our city. There is nothing for them to eat, to be sure; but then cows have rights which human beings are bound to respect. It causes our lady friends some inconve nience, by compelling them to strictly ab stain front wearing red, and, before going on the streets, to have their dresses well looped up. but then we do not consider red ns a very good color to wear, anyway, and winter is rapidly approaching to freeze everything solid, and thus obviate the ne cessity for shortness of skirts, and besides ail that, it is such a pleasure to the cows. Kor some time we feared some action on the part of our city ‘dads,’ that would abridge the privileges of these mild-eyed domestic creatures, but now they will be allowed to roam at pleasure, to nip the tenderest branches from ornamental trees, thus saving the labor of pruning, and to keep ladies and children impressed with a due sense of their physical inferiority, be sides giving some striking lessons in re gard to cleanliness. Cows are not all alike, and we teel it our duty to caution ladies and children against brindlcs. They are generally irascible of temper, and ‘wontto push with their horns.’ They arc expert in the opening ol gates, good vaulters, and invariably sleep on the side-walk. A venerable female of the brindle i>ersuasion has taken a desperate fancy to chewing the cud of sweet and bit ter fancies, in the silent watches of the night, immediately in front of onr gate. Mot being an early riser, she is gone before we get up, but evidence of her having been there isabundant. If that cow meets with an accident one of these nights, the owner needn’t shake his gory, looks at us.” Governor Ouu and the Constitu tional Amendment. —The Greenville (S. C.) Enterprise, alluding to a rumor set aioat by a cerreSpoodent of the New York to tlio effect that Governor Orr favors iV- Constitutional Amendment. says it does not hesitate to pronounce it false, The Governor, it says, is uncompromising ly opposed to the ratiiieutkm of the odious Amendment by South Carolina. Homes for the People. i With all tbo.thrift, and progress which ! characterizes the American people, there I is perhaps no civilized country on earth where the middle classes derive so little ! comfort for the money they spend. In tho item of rent alone, if one lives in a house that is simply comfortably, enough money is spent to keep a family liberally in many of the richest capitals of Europe. In Munich, wo aro told that two people can keep house in good style, have three or four servants, employ all tho outside help they need in the shape of that general utility man, the “liiensUMtn," entertain a couple of friends at dinner every day, receive company in the evening, and have more room than falls to the lotof many a Fifth Avenoodle, for the sum of 81,000 a year. This is true, also, of almost any of tho German and Italian cities. In London a three story house with eight or ten rooms, it) a genteel part of the city, rents for $250 to S3OO a year. While wedo not Intimate that the middle classes of Europe are favored above those of this country, it cannot be denied that they understand tin philosophy of domes tic comfort twitter than wo do. Indeed, it must, lie admitted that tlie American knows anything else better than the art of living well on a small income. One great harrier to cheap living is the enormous and unreasonable price of rents It takes fully half the average income of tho tailoring man to pay the rent on a de cent house. The iirst lesson in tlie school of good living for this class, is to buy a house. It is difficult, we know, to save enough money to accomplish this; but with good management it can be done. A lot in the suburbs of any of our cities can lie had for one or two hundred dollars. Almost any frugal family, with good luck, can save tliat amount in a single year. Then a small house—even if it has but one room —can be built on tho savings of the next year; and so, little by little, in threeor 1 four years a comfortable house can be erected. This can he done without delay, ' through the Loan Associations which are ! now in existence in most of our towns and 1 cities, and which are probably the best agencies through which to get a home. But whether through them, or by dint of industry anil economy without them, it should be the first aim of every man of family to strike against the burden of high rents, by owning a domicil. This is the first step to solid comfort and thrift. The next is, to learn to do without servants. Tho waste and plunder from this depart- j inent of almost every family, equal fully one-fourth of tho necessary current ex penses, while the health and happiness o the whole family aro damaged, rather than ehhanced, by tho outlay. This part of the subject opens a field for reflection so wide that wo leave its consideration for another time. He Expresses Regret. Our genial neighbor of the Edgefield Ad vertiser, thus responds to our hint that he did not illumine our sanctum with the light of his countenance, during iiis late visit to Augusta: Tho Chronicle <fc I Sentinel of Augusta, as popular and us much honored on our side of the Savannah as on his own, pays us tho compliment of being aware that we were lately in Augusta, and did not, during our stay, make tho acquaintance of the able and estimable gentlemen who form its editorial stall'. That we did not call on them isa mistake. We called, anil had quite a flirtation with a polite lad who sat on a high bench be fore a high desk iri a high room, and who informed us that Gen. Wright was at the Court llouso and Mr. Atkinson was out. And wo intended too, to call again, for'mak ing the acquaintance of Gen. Wright and M r. Atkinson and Mr. Moore was an honor and pleasure we had especially proposed to ourselves. But this was one of the times —how often is it so! —when the proposing of man and the disposing of Heaven did not run in tho same groove. On a future occasion we hopo this proposing and dis posing will run more smoothly together. And if so, wo will claim lho promised opening oftho “keg of nails ;” and taking therefrom a nail big and long, will nail up our name firmly in the list of the Chronicle & Sentinel’s best friends. Presentments of the brand Jury of Hancock County. The Grand Jurors chosen and sworn for tlie (fetober term 1800, oftho Superior Court of Hancock county, beg leave to make the following presentments: We perceive with regret that a portion of I In-people of Georgia aro not satisfied with tho county court system as organized at the last session oftho Legislature. In these times of trouble and difficulty, such an institution isa necessity. Notonlyso, it is a positive convenience to all. It se cures justice, the aim and object of all Courts, with as little delay and with as inueli economy, as any other system with which wo are familiar. 111 short it vindi cates the wisdom of our Legislature in its organization; If after sufficient experi ence it be found defective, let all del'oets be remedied. If not perfect, let it bo per fected—never abandoned. In this fearful crisis of our agricultural interest throughout tho South, present and prospective, great caution, wise fore thought, careful arrangement and indus try aro tlie great elements of suecoss in our operations. They are the bases of pros perity—tlie foundation upon which all interests mainly rest, whether social, political or religious. To dam up tho fountain Is to obstruct or seriously impure tho forco of the run-out, if not to pollute tho stream to a degree Unit produces disease or death. Wise counsels in every timeof peril, aro tho only security against impending evils. Will our people heed them ? Will they listen to the warnings of experience—.tho teachings of wisdom ? That “no stone may be left unturned” in our efforts to regain and retain prosperity. We urge our peo ple to be prudent, sagacious, careful in all their arrangements for the ensiling year. And, believin', that united counsel and concert of action may be productive of much good, we invite all people who feel an interest in the cause of Agriculture, to hold a meeting in the town of Sparta on the '-7th day of October inst., fora lull, frank and lroe interchange of views and opinions upon all the subjects connected with our Agricultural interest. We cannot closeour labors before tender ing our cordutl thanks to Ilis Honor Judge Reese, for his uniform courtesy to this body. We beg to say however, that the pleasure afforded u.> by this courtesy, has been greatly inhancod’by an exhibition of ability, firmness and impartiality in the discharge of official duty, not often found in combination, in one and the same pub lic functionary. To our able and efficient Holioitor General E. P. Edwards, we also tender our unfeigned thanks for his cour tesies to Ibis body. Wo request that so much of our present ments as relate to county matters be laid before tho Inferior Court at its next meet ing, and that tin* remaining portions of a public nature be published in the Chronicle and sentinel, Augusta, and Southern Re corder.

October 23d, 180(5. j.-A?- Southern Recorder pleaso copy. Forney’s Press indulges in the following bravado iu reference to the proposed action "ot Governor Swann : “Swann wants' to be United States Sena tor. Baltimore city sends twenty-one , members to the Legislature. To get these ! twentv-one votes he will drench the streets with blood. If ho attempts to remove the Commissioners they will resist. Their po j lice are directed to arrest as disturbers of i the peace anybody pretending to interfere with them. The Mayor will never sue- I etunb. but fight it out to the bitter end. All I the Union men in Baltimore swear that | they will drench the streets with blood but they will protect their rights and the law. The brave General Denison and the gallant j General Woolley have both offered their services to the Mayor, and the returned ! veterans of the Uuion army are ready to tight. Swann will have a terrible respon- I sibility if he should do this thing to defeat ! Stewart, Thomas and Creswell. "My solemn belief is that Andrew Jokn ! son wiil send the regular troops into Bal timore to sustaiu Swann, if the attempt of ; the latter to remove the Police Commis ] sioners be resisted by the people, as re -1 sisted it will be. In that event let the North be prepared, Let Pennsylvania be ' ready." In reply to Forney’s menace against the j Governor of Maryland, the Washington ! Constitutional Union fays: "Let For- j nevsarmy of traitors come on: they will j be met as’they deserve. The announcement 1 of the President was not an idle one, that j treason having been put downinthe South, he was ready for it in the North.

Mr. Gladstone is, cou- S to proceed to . Athens to enter upon this delicate negotiation. Her pro posed husband is a mere youth, who dances well, and is fond of good cigars, and is tolerable sood looking. He might make an admirable clerk m. a milhnery store, but ij altogether out ol his place the chid of the spirited Greek action. Events of the Day.

I'm ; a plum month behind tim—oxter bin ready fust September, but couldn't make the riSe. Hit takes a powerful sight of brains or j brass fur to get up these sorter things, and 1 its principally done upon the brass basis. I done three months squar study on letter writin' and farmin' the durned lingo of i thes Carondeiet street fellers. I used to ! begin “Dear Sur —I take my pen in hand” —and so on. My young man used to larf fit to kill hisseif over my letter book when I he wasouten the offis —know it, for I ketch j ed him at it. Hit aint the style in Orleans. A feller don't take his pen in hand enny more, he j “confirms his last respects under date of J 10th ultimo.” Es he sens a feller a conu- I ty sail, he “begs to wait on him” with sich j an sich, an axes him to "book it in confor ! mity if found in order.” I mustn't write a feller I hev paid his money order, but his “sight valuation has had due honor.” ! His debts aint paid, they's “liquated.” : His note aint paid, its “retired.” Well, arter three months practysin’ I : can write three pages of topleftickle, high soundin’ bizness jargon, ez clear ez mud, meanin’ nutbun; an perfectly non com -1 mittal es a sudden chanee strikes the mar ► kets. All my study didn't hope me much in j writin’ a circular. I got the Price Cur j rents of 19 years back an’ foun the state ment of’47 jest ez practikle an' sensibu! as ; the one of’o6—exceptin that the ’O6 feller ; sez with keenness as is remarkibul, “The 1 chief elements of our trade has been this | supply of the extensive country tributary | to the market with dry goods, clothing, I hardware, (etc., etc.) —and the disposal of 1 the liberal receipts of our leaking staples, j These have proved sources of profit to all classes engaged in the commerce of the 1 port.” Now, layin grammar aside, that’ | information easy understood, an’ well worth filin away “for future reference.” I didn’t wanter put enny of it in my circular tho’. I put the statement longsideo’six of dif ferunt dates from Neill Bros., an’ compar ed figgers, fax an’ ideas. I got figgeritive ly twisted up in lessan half an’ hour. That Neill family’s great one you bet, an’ thar circulars is models an' tip top guides for a Orleans spekilator es he’s a gamblin’ to lose. Arter studyin the docyment a hour more, an’knowin figgers don’tlie, I come to the conclusion that on the twenty firstest of nex July, thar wouldn’t be a lock o’ cotton in the world ! ! Es nex crop was a short un, shore enuff, we’d hear ’bout Manchester spinners an’ puritan nabobs a tarin’of thar har ’about a cotton famine, j an a blushin’ world in neckedness for want I o’ sheets an shimmeys. 1 I know my etarneal fortin was made, rite then an’ thar, an farly I larfed an’ hol lered, I was so tickled I got up an’ sot on the standin’.desk closeter the gas lite, an’ figgered hit out an’"larfed agin. I was in my festive mood, a tlyin’ to balance myself on my lied on top of the desk, when my young man come in. Let tin’ myself down suddiuly, fear'd he’d | think I was drunk, I figgered Neill an’ ! the Price Current over agin. Then he ! larfed, yes, sir, he larfed at my bein’ so | green ez to believe wat Neill Bros.’ circu- I larssays I Well, I was riled some, an’ had to whis tle Yankee Doodle to humble an’ subjugate myself. I wan’t gwying to be bluffed off the circular tho.’ I tried New York an’ from New'Orleans the shadder to hit. 1 waded through a many a letter writ by a old maid what calls herself Aunty Lope. She do write nice letters, an’ no mistake ; but when hit comes to biz, her chat’s like boardin’ house coffee an’ fodder tea. ITer sex is the reason, no doubt, an’ es so she orter to let biz alone. Biz ain’t a touchin’ of her an’ don’t expect nothin’ of her. My young man sed how thar was a Chinyman as calls himself ,‘On Change,” which could give 111 c some notions. I went for his record. On Change is a clever feller, muchly, but he’s billious. His notions of gold an, cotton depend muchly on the weather’ amount of sand in his gizzard, the color of liis specs and the notions of the last feller lie talked to. I dont bleeve he belongs to either the bulls er the bears, but he don’t wanter to fall out with either on ’em—which is pru dent —and he talks and writes fer both of ’em, turn about—which is far play. The upshot is, I hev jes writ what I wanted ter say, cornin’ ez nigh the patterns ez I understandinly could, fer decency’s sake an’ outen respeck fer ainshunt lan marks and Carondeiet street generiliy, an’ here ’tis: 793 Carondelet Street, ) Nu Orleens, October the Ist, 1866. J Deer Sur: —At the openin ov the biz ness season, I don’t think hits fur from outer the way ler to sen’ you a Price Cur rent an’ my keerd. Uvry body else is a doin’ of it, an’ my circular is ez good ez enny body else’s fur enny purposes you ken put hit to. Hit is a valerable doekyment (that is, j the printed part with the figgers,) an’ orter be put away keerfully. Es it tells you moreTi you wanter no, hit’l keep ontwell you change ure mind. I don’t charge you nutliin’ fer hit, altho it’s got up holy regardless, ez they say, an’ is ez good ez a almanac fer to have in the house. 1 reckon you kin blecvo all hit says. Most everybody swallers it on trust an’ files hit away evry year “fer reference,” an’ thar boys grows up an’ uses ’em prin cipally ler cigar lites an’ sich. Hits my bounding duty fer to tell you wat I think ’bout.cotton an’ craps. From my large an’ tremenjous corres pondence comprisin’ the variability of ail the ramifications an’ postal arrangements consekent upon juxtaposition with an’ in telligent planter in every county whar a lock of cotton grows, I kin konfidcntly swar thar won’t be the cotton made this year thar was in sixty-one, and the crap’l be short. That’s so, an’ if hit aint, mebbe hits jest ez well to talk so enny how. Bes time to sell is jest ez soon ez you kin get yer crap inter my hands, regardless of the price of trade—don’t stan’ on extry expense, but hurry hit forrard. 1 hev my private reasons for advisin’ so, an’ besides these English fellers begin ter think the worms and cholery and the freed men’s buro bez cut down the crap to bout a million bales shore enuff. Time June comes, them quiet cusses down in the back swamps an’ out on the aige of nowhar, will find an extra half a million hails, shore, an’ then away goes prices. Then my correspondence in Egypt, Arabia Petrea, an’ other various pints in India, writes me the cotton thar is power ful promisin’ for a big crap. Them fellers is got us on the cotton question lessen we can get a brancli of the freedmen’s buro started in thar seeshun. Hits all our sal vation at this stage of the game, an’ the only way to choke ’em off an’ spile thar competition. Sen down yer cotton fust thing arter hits ginned and bailed. A long experience in the bizness tells mo hits a pore way of sellin a plantation— sendin’ it down by retail mixed up in the cotton lint. Tae cotton, somehow, sells better without the sand an’ dust, but thar’s no disputin’ the heft of the sand. Your orders fer supplies shall have my personal attention. Es hits jes’ as conve nient, hit wouldn’t he remiss to send the cash along with ’em —mebbe you’d git the goods a leetle mite quicker that a way. These traders here gin me 2 an a half per cent an’ extrys on what I buy—which is kind of them, and no money "lost 2 you, but they mostly wants thar money ’fore the inks dry on the bill. The talk is that some of these chaps in the commission line ain't goin’ ter last long. Worms an the freedmen’s buro is things some of 'em's deeper interested in than commissions on sails, an' hit makes folks in the tradin’ line pertickler. The banks don’t keer, but they kin stan’ it. Be keerful who you sen’ yer cotton 2. Es you wanter make a dead shore thing of it and fer get the biggest dollar hit will fetch an' not sacrificed on the fust offer, sen’t it 2 me. I’m the tardinest man you ever seed, sharp ez a briar an' keen ez a nuier gender mink. Havin’ an immense capital, unbounding credit, long exsericnce, a big offic, abel correspondence in all the cities of the world, a private with the man as runs the telegraph to Eu rope, an' boardin’ in the same house with a cotton broker's clerk, I kin giv you all the satisfaction you want. Ez I spekiiate in cotton, planters’ craps will hey a grate advantage iu bein' sold long o my cotton, pertickler ez I nuver lose money on these side trades. My young man keeps a “average account,” w'hic-h he sez keeps the different intrusts straight and kivers euny differences in classin’ a list o’ cotton. My Confedrich irons is invited 2 stand up 2 me. I fit, fit, bled—an' had the measles in the "Lost Cause’’ along with 'em, an' my wife tells me she thinks them j measles done me a power of injury fer life. New comers is requested to recomeuiber I'm what they call reconstructed and har monized. I shall make it 2 my intrust 2 j do your bizness for you. Es you don’t bleeve it, try me. Yours, on the squar.

WHATLEY. Matthew, Chapter 16, verses 13 —19. “When Jesus came into the coasts of Cesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I, the son of man, am? “And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. “He saith unto thorn, But whom say ye that lain ? “And Simon PeteU answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the son of the living God. “And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for llesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. “And X say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church: and the galas of hell shall not pre vail against it. “And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven : and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” There has been a world of discussion on this paragraph, and yet very few seem to have apprehended its true exposition. Upon it is founded a claim to apostolic succes sion, and from it is deduced an argument in favor of the divine character of Chris tianity, inasmuch as it continues in ex istence, notwithstanding the efforts which have been made to destroy it. The claim we think unfounded, and the argument false. The first, from a misaprehension as to what is symbolized by the Rock. The second from a mistranslation of pulai hadou, rendered, in the common version, “gates of hell.” Laying aside all criticism Qn the Petros and the Petra (Peter and Rock,) on which Protestants seem to rely so much, we think the reference is to the confession which Peter made “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living Gcd. ” The reason for this will appear in our dis cussion of the latter part of the sentence— “the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” The term Hades does not mean hell in our acceptation of the word, and should not be so rendered in any place where it occurs in the New Testament. Etymo logically, it means the unseen state, from a negative, and idem, to see. Hence it means the grave, the underworld, the place to which people go when they leave the world. Such being the case, the “gates” of hades must stand at the entrance of this unseen world. What now is the office of a gate ? It not does make an attack on anything with the design of destroying it. And yet nearly all theologians understand the ex pression—“the gates of hell shall'not pre vail against it”—to mean the failure of the powers of evil to destroy the Church ! They seem not to consider that there must be some analogy between a symbol and the thing symbolized. The office of a “gate” is to shut up the entrance to an enclo sure ; to keep out that which should not go in, and to keep in that which should not go out. If cattle in a pen, or prison ers in a stockade make an irruption against the gate and burst it open, we say, the gate could not “prevail against them,” that is, it could not withstand them. Let us now apply this principle of in terpretation to the passage before us. When our Lord was crucified, he was buried. He entered Hades and the gates closed upon him. But on the third day, a mighty earthquake rocks the world, the gates of Hades are burst open and the ris ing Lord comes forth a living exhibition of the truth that He was “the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Verily, the gates of Hades could not prevail against it. And so in the coming resurrection of the right eous, this truth will be exemplified in the coming forth from the gates of the unseen world, of all those who “sleep in Jesus.” An explanation of the “Keys” and office is reserved for a future number. The Cotton Tax Again. We cheerfully give place to the com munication of “Another Citizen,” on the subject of the cotton tax. We admit that he presents his side of the case very strong ly. We feel assured that the commission merchant would find his interest in paying the tax as it now stands himself, and not include it in his bill of charges to the planter, but we fail to find an argument in favor of the continuance of the tax by the city government which convinces our own mind. Let us hear further from our business men on this subject. Another Warning to the Careless. —A terrible disaster occurred in Kickapoo township, Peoria" county, Illinois, on Tuesday) night. Mr. George Glazier un dertook to fill a kerosene lamp while it was burning. It exploded, setting his house on fire, and so rapidly did the flames spread that three of his children were consumed in the burning budding, while Mr. Glazier and his son were both severely burned, but it is hoped they will recover. Mrs. Glazier also had all of her clothes burned from her person, but escaped any serious injury. The house and everything in it was con sumed. Kock Island Manufacturing Com pany.—A correspondent of the Baleigh Sentinel gives a flattering account of this Company, located in Charlotte, North Ca rolina, which employs eighty hands, and is turning out a superior article of cloth and cassimere. It runs 2,500 spindles, turns out 2,500 yards of cloth per week, con sumes 3,000 pounds of-wool per week, or from 120,000 to 160,000 per annum. It has six sets of cards and seven spinning cranes. The machinery Is driven by a six ty horse power engine. Such enterprises as this wdl soon restore the South to a higher material prosperity than her wanoj est well-wishers have ever dreamed of in a former day.

[-ft should be borne in mind that our quotations represent wholesale prices. Small bills, to Planters and others, are filled at a shade higher rates.] REMARKS.—Business lias been quite ac tive iu all departments of trade during the week,>nd prices in the leading articles have remained without material change, sa\ e grain and flour, in which we report a further advance.

The first killing frost made its appearance on Wednesday morning, 24th inst., and " 113 followed by frosts of moderate sever ity on the two succeeding days. We are not advised as to the extent or efl'ect of these frosts, but presume they were gener al in this latitude, and fatal to tender vege tation. The cotton crop has unquestion ably been benefittedby the fine weather of the last month, but reports of the crop iu this vicinity are still very unfavorable, many planters declaring that they are uot realizing their expectations.

The medical faculty prophesy evil in the future. They think pes tilence is-on the wing for America. Suppose this to be true, what is the best defence against it ? REDOUBLED NEK- S VIGOR. This is the only protection agaiusi PANIC as well as against the-PRINCIPLE OF INFECTION. Why do not those who predict the epidemic, propose an ade quate preventive ? There IS one ; a tonic, nervine and alter ative, competent to shield the system against the subtle elements of disease, whether they float hither on the winds from distant lands, or rise like vapor from our own soil, or are Incorporated with the universal fluid. This ON E PREVEN TIVE, of which there is no duplicate among the compounds either of the Old World or the New, is HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS, Remember that it is a specific for all the complaints which lay the system open to visitations of deadly epidemics. If you arc dyspeptic, it renews the vigor of your digestive powers gives you appetite, and restores your cheerfulness. If you are nervous, it invigorates every fibre of j- o ur nervous system from the base of the brain where it begins to the extremities where it terminates. It you are bilious, it disciplines your unruly liver, and brings the actiou of that organ into harmony with the laws of health, It is, in short, an invigorant and altera tive so powerful that Nature, with Hostetter’s Bitters for her ally, may bid defiance alike to narive malaria and foreign in fection If this enemy we hear of, this disease which is desolating Europe, is really bound hitnerward. it behooves the nrudt-nt to put on their armor, to clothe themselves with invulnerability as far as human means will permit, by pre paring the system for resistance with this pure vegetable antidote. oct26-Sw Errors of Youth.—A Gcntlc man who suffered for years from Nervous De bility , Premature Decay, and all the effects of youthful indis cretion, will, for the sake of suffering humanity, send free to all who need it, the receipt and directions for making the simple remedy by which he was cured.

The often repeated saying, especially of females of a bilious temperament, that it improves the complexion, and that they have felt better since taking it, but do not know whether ft was tic Sarsaparilla that improved their hcaith or not. is the best of evidence that it removes morbific agents from the blood, and that it Is made of the best of roots, and Is rightly prepared. Ir a medicine acts naturally on the liver, keeps the bowels irt-e, and the bl -f-d healthy, what more can be wanted of medicine? Or. what can be gained by'taking so many dif ferent kinds, when this will do all that a medicine can do, in diseases of the liver, or to purify the blood. The Sarsaparilla that grows In great abundance m the Southern States, is adapted by nature to this very purpose. oct27—ltwf F "VOTICE.
