It appears that there are now living but
two representatives of the great Quaker
statesman—-I. Granville Penn, who visited
this country a few years since, and a brother
who is itisanf. Mr. Per.n ,in his trip to
this country ascertained that the estates he
expected to recover here, had either passed
beyond his legal control, or were valueless ;•
and the only remaining representatives of
the founder of the great commonwealth
which bears bis name, have became re
duce 1 and are in need of assistance to
relieve them from the actual pinch of
poverty.
Stops are to be taken in the State Legis
lature of Pennsylvania, looking to the
speedy relief of these unfortunate repre
sentatives of Penn, and it is thought that
a handsome provision will be made tor
them.

REVIEW OF THE AUGUSTA MARKET,

[li should be borne in mind that our
quotations represent wholesale prices. Small
bills, to Planters and others, are jilted at a
shade higher rates.]
COTTON.—The market lias fluctuated
considerably since our last weekly review,
owing of course, to the changes at I.iver
j pool and New York. On roceiptof the ad
! vauce in these markets, cotton was buoyed
up on Wednesday, maintaining and cios
-1 ing at an advance of fully half a cent,
i Thursday the market opened very active
! at an advance of one cent on previous
j prices, tiie sales being large. The market,
! however, exhibited signs of weakness and
! closed less firm. Friday the market open
ed dull and elosed at a half cent lower.
Although Liverpool remains steady at
1-lid, New York has gone down, and this
latter market hits caused the weakness and
decline which we note at the close of the
week. The following is a resume of the
week’s operations: \

tations. The sales of the day were 94 bales

receipts are 669 bales.
Wednesday.—The market was quite active
and sales were readily made in the morn
ing at yesterday’s figures. In the after
noon an advance was insisted on by hold
ers, consequent upon the noon quotations
from Liverpool. Wo quote Middling at
31 cents, and Strict to Good Middling at 32
cents. The sales wero 644 bales, as fol
