Liverpool, May 26.
Without improvement in the demand or increase
in the extent of sales, our market presents the tame
discouraging aspect we noticed last week; prices
have been less steady, with a more general tendency
to give way. Wc reduce our quotations for all kinds
id per lb; in Egyptian sale:; are being made 1 j to
2d below the highest point, and in Sea Island at least
Id. Speculators seem to have abandoned the mar
ket, as nothing has been done by them this week.
Exporters have taken 300 bales of American, and
70 Maranham. The sales to day are 1200 bales of
all kinds.

Cottons. —The hope which hail been entertained
that the late important decline in our rates for Cut
tons, would give rise to more extensive transactions
in this article, has not been realized, during the
last eight days ; our spinners having hitherto con
tinued to persist in their system of confining their
purchasers to their most urgent wants, which have
themselves experienced a material reduction in
consequence of the diminution which has existed,
this year, in the demand for twist.
The sales, since our last report, of tire 23d imst.,
comprise 279 S hales, consisting of 1127 bales New
Orleans at 102 f to 133 f (this last price for arraall

ATTENTION I
PEOPLE of all nations, of all religious denomi
nations, and of all occupations:
You are hereby respectfully invited to attend a
sale on the twenty-third day of July next, at 11
o’clock, in the forenoon, of the lots of the new town
of Summerville, Chattooga County, Georgia.
This town is situated on a gently undulating piece
of ground in the enchanting valley of Chattooga
River, on its western Bank, having Taylor’s exten
sive ridge of mountains, in beautiful prospect to the
East, and lofty spurs of the Lookout mountain to
the West. Immediately at the northwest end of
the Town, is a beautiful blue limestone spring, is
suing several hogsheads of the most limpid water
per minute, and upon the northeastern part of the
town, several other fountains are to be found, which
have never ceased to issue pure and limpid water.
Here the dyspeptic who has found nostrums and
learned doctors’ means ineffectual, may come in the
certainty of the use of these waters, and inhaling
the atmosphere of the most healthful section of
country upon our Globe, radically healing his im
paired digestive organs. We would, therefore,
especially invite the dyspeptic, and all those who
desire to keep free from this fashionable disease,
to come and purchase lots or farms in the vicinity.
The lots arc admirably sized and shaped, for mer
chants’stores and dwellings, mechanic’s workshops,
their dwellings and gard ns, the horiculturist, and
last not least the silk culturist. Here the merchant
may vend a reasonable amount of goods, at fair
profits; the house joiner, the brick and stone mason,
the carriage maker, the black and white smith, the
watchmaker and the tailor, may get profitable em
ployment, in their respective line of business.
A seminary of high order, for the education of
females, is about being established in the vicinity
of this place, and the earlieslattention will he given
to the establishment of a male academy.
We regret the inadequacy of our humble pen to
describe nature’s best effort for the grandeur of sce
nery of the surrounding country of this enchanting
spot; it would take the pen of a Cooper, or a
Symmes, to do justice to the subject.
Cotton, small grain, and silk, will be the staples
of this country, and believe him not, who will tell
you, that the Georgia mountain valleys will not
pvduce as much cotton per acre, as the best lands
in Morgan, Greene, Jefferson or Burke counties.
The terms of sale will be oxE-nmi cash, the
residue in equal instalments at six, twelve .eighteen
' and twenty-four months. Purchasers giving their
notes, which, on being paid, perfected title* will be
given.
