#omp |(dus. From Die Charleston Courier. LATER'FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL OF THE BALTIC. New York, Nov. 3. The U. S. Mail steam ship Baltic, Capt. Comstoek, llns arrived at this port from Liverpool, with advices to the 30th ult. Commercial Intelligence. Liverpool Cotton Market. —Cotton han declined 1-16 @ |d; and at the close of the market, prices were even a trifle lower, and a dull feeling prevailed. The sales comprise 54,000 bales during the week, of which speculators took 5000 and exporters 4000 bales,leaving 45,000 bales of all descriptions to the trade. Fair Orleans wasquotedat 61d.; Middling 5 0-10d.; Fair Uplands 6J<l.; Middling Uplands sJ<l. The sales on Friday the 19th ult., comprised 6000 bales. The Liverpool Breadstuff's Market had slightly advanced. Ohio Flour was worth 455., and Western Canal 44s per bbl. of 196 lbs. White 6d., and Red 12s. per 70 lbs. Corn was quoted at 435. per 480 lbs. The Liverpool provision market was generally unchanged. London Money Market. —There was great alarm prevailing in commercial circles, and a panic anticipated in con sequence of the Bank of England having advanced its rates to 6 per cent., and on> long dated paper to 7 per cent. Consols closed at 87. General Intelligence, The Allies have organized a concentric advance from Eupatoria, Baidar, Kertcli and Kenbaum, in order to surround aud cut off the Russian forces. Kenbaum is an important position North of the Du eiper and has been captured by the allies. Taman and Phanayona, on the straits of Kertcli, had been destroyed. The ad vance posts of the Allies were within five leagues of Batski Sarai. The Russians were returning, Liprandi intending to de fend the line of the Bel bee, where a bat tle was anticipated. The north side of Sebastopol had bceu placed in a state to support a siege. The restrictive meas ures of the Bank of Franco were telling on almost every branch dorado. The Rothschilds were about ■B^oTTslTan'’ Austrian Bank of Credit W; capital of sixty millions. f \ TO Facta for tlic Peupltwriic In fluence of ForciK£r*\ oter- a tlie Last P.osjd/atiut Elec tion. y “\\ a shall nowy^y nl " onS ( c by facts figures, and sta^gq Cil | information, that General Pierce elected President by and through the Influence of the foreign voting population! iho following. shows that the popular raajtrity*f p iel . ca over Scott vote.

Bat there is anotlieN^?* ( tl " s /l ue . s ; tion, which demonstrates V’ st . c °!V * v . tho truth of tho declany*? 11 ’ . vlz: 1 iat Pierce owes his election tt foreign votes. The administration presst® aUI ot lcr opponents of our doctrines i ave? 011 \ a ‘ nous occasion's, sought to narrate tliel importance of tho foreign vot our elections, and have essayed to proye that such votes do not, to any perceiv able extent, to control our elections, be cause it is scattered and diffused through out the country. It is not denied by our opponents, that almost tho entire foreign vote is cast 011 the same side.— We shall endeavor to demonstrate, by calculations and facts which cannot be controverted, that the foreign popula tion have now the power to decide the election of President of the U. States, in any contest between tiie two parlies, whigs and democrats, when the old po litical lines are drawn between these par ties. We may here, in advance of exhibit ing our figures, advert to the well known fact, that it was considered extremely doubtful on which side the foreign votes would be cast, as between Gen. Pierce and Scott, in 1852, until within a very few days of the election. It is even said and believed that negotiations were car ried on for some time between certain distinguished emissaries of a “higher power” and the recognized friends of the rival candidates, touching the con sideration or value of the foreign vote, nnd that the results of these negotia tions are too manifest not to he well un derstood by all who pay attention to tlie political hucksterings of corrupt parti sans. If it be true, as we think we shall de monstrate, that the foreign voters in our country can, by acting in conceit, con trol our Presidential elections; and if it l>e true, as we have been led to believe, that nearly all the foreign vote can be controlled by a “ higher law” influence, surely the patriotic of all parties wilj unite with 11s in our efforts to defeat the machinations of demagogues who may hereafter seek to obtain political place and power by moans of such influences! Without further allusion to this point, now, wo shall present our figures. We shall exhibit tho statistics of fourteen States in this connection, whose aggre gate electoral vote was one hundred and fifty-two at the late election, that num ber being two more than a majority of tho whole electoral vote cast for Presi dent. We have made our calculations on the usual bases, that one-seventh of tlie general population of the States are voters. We doubt not that one-fifth of the foreign population are voters, be cause there is a smaller proportion of adult females and of children among them than in tho same number of native born population. Still, we adhere to the usual basis of calculation. In California, where there arc seven teen males to one female, and but few children, we assume that about one half of tho whole foreign population are vo ters, and we have estimated the foreign vote at 10,000, in a foreign population of 21,628 persons. On these principles we now present our statistics, tabpn from tho census of 1850, aud the Amer ican Almanac for 1854: rOR’M- FOR’n. FIKRCE’ KI.KC. Vt Ton\ VOTE.

Pierce’s majorities in said States. If even one-half of the foreign vote had been given to Gen. Scott, he would have been elected instead of Gen. Pierce. In North Carolina, too, tfrcr foreign vote was 366, and Gen. Pierce’s majori ty’ but 686; so that if Scott instead of Pierce had received this foreign vote, he would have received the electoral vote of North Carolina by a majority of one hundred and forty-six votes. It is therefore, clear, beyond contro versy, that if Gen. Scott had bargained and obtained that portion of the for eign vote which, it is assumed, was un derUhe influence of a higher law power, he would now, instead of Gen. Pierce, have been President of the United States. But passing over this consideration, we ask it'it be not alarming to reflect that our Presidential elections are thus dis tinctly shovwj to bo under the control of the naturalised citizens of the United States ! \\ e trust our readers will scru tinize, and then ponder upon these sta ris ics. The time/is not distant when even Virginia, J>lv the increase of foreign votes will be uiider their influence and control if thertfontests in that State continue to be carried on between tlie former rival parities, and if a Presidential candidate [jam be found who will place tho neces sary number of secretaryships and for eign missions at tlie disposal of the “ higher law’” power! V e might proceed an>i construct a table similar to the above, including all the States showing the effect of the for eign vote at the last Presidential elec tion ; but a previous table which exhib its tlie relative strength of the foreign and native, contains all tho information necessary to a full and thorough know ledge of the political power of the pre sent foreign population of this country.

FAItKELI/’S Genuine Arabian Liniment IS a most extraordinary medicine, the truth of which is placed beyond doubt by the vast sales of the article and the many cures being daily performed by it, which previous ly had resisted all other medicines and the skill of the best physicians in the world. It is composed of balms, extracts and gums pe culiar to Arabia—possessing in a concentrated form, all their stimulating, anodyne, penctra riug, unctions and revulsive properties, and t which, ages ago were used by the of the Desert,” with such miraculous in curing the diseases of both man and Read following remarkable cure which si.oui.l U ,r . , ; e ”’ 8 A™bi aa Linimen) jj u ~^ on ' 1 any similar remcilv : Mr II Gi Fttri ’ e ll—Dear oil’: Actuated b * r iiitcfuliicss, I subniitthe following L all i.mtS °‘V^ 1 uti,i 'y of y ur erca , t medicine Ml three yearn old. wa.i mai denly attackJ “ ith a terrible disease, which in less than I llom ' s prostrated it to total helnlessiiess fTho limbs became so rigid that not a joint J'tld be heat; the flesh turned hlnek and iUl 'l entirely deprived of feel in” • t hu*^' s 6 xe d, partially closed and nlto ertllcr J(F"d; following this.wns deafness to all ,be opmc became contracted nnd SO jJßred that when lying on its hack the lo a# fund heels only touched. Indeed the child presented every appearance of being dead. Immediately on the attack the family phy-ii'iiiM was called in, and for three weeks he labored to restore it to feeling, hut all in although it was blistered a dozen times and various rubefacient Liniments applied.— A consultation of physicians was then held, but to no purpose; the ease was then brought before the Medical Society, hut nothing could be suggested which had not already been done, and the doctor then told me he could do nothing more. We then commenced applying your liniment freely over the enti length of the spine, and you may imagine a parent’s joy, when after a few applications, returning animation was apparent, and it rapidly recov ed with the exception of the sight, which did not become perfect for near a month. The child is now healthy and robust, ns can he.— Five other coses of the same kind occurred previously in my neighborhood, all of which died, when there is no doubt if your Liai meat had been used they would liave recov ered. HENRY (i. OLELAND. Look out for Counterfeits! —The public are cautioned against, another eountertoit which has lately made its appearance, called W. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most danger ous of all the counterfeits, because his having the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good faith, without the knowledge that a counter feit exists, and they will perhaps only discov er their error when the spurious mixture Ims wrought its evil effects. The genuine article is manufactured only by 11. G.

William Roulatt, a velj known Methodist clergyman, residing at Naples, draws the following amusing but apt compar ison between Dr. M’Lane’s celebrated Vermi fuge and a ferret: “ A ferret, when placed at the entrance of a rat-hole, enters the aperture, travels about the passage, seizes upon the rat, exterminates his existence, and draws tlie animal’s defunct carcass to the light. And in like manner have 1 found Dr, M'Thanes American Vermi fuge to operate upon worms, those dreadful ami dangerous tormentors of children. This remedy, tike the ferret, enters the aperture of the mouth, travels down the gullet, hunts round the stomach, lays hold of the worms, shakes the life out of the reptiles, sweeps clean their den, and carries their carcasses clear out of the system- This, at least, has been the effect of the Vermifuge upon my children.” A neighbor of Mr. Roulatt, Mr. John Briggs, adopts the simile of the reverend certitier, thus both giving their most unequivocal ap proval of this great specific, after having wit nessed its operation upon their own children. Let others try it, and be satisfied. Purchasers will be careful to ask for “ Dr. M’Lane’s Celebrated Vermifuge,” and take none else. All other Vermifuges, in comparison, are worthless. Dr. M’Lnne’s Vet - mifuge, also his Celebrated Liver Pills, can now he hal at. all respectable Drug Stores in the United States and Canada. November 8, 18'>5 48—2 w IVliiltiim ill Psii'VO.

ALBANY, GA., September 27, 1855. 42—ts. RANDALL & MERGER'S COTTOIi SEED DRILL. VLL Planters have realized tlie want of a . inaeliine to drill Cotton Seed with regu larity and certainty. One that would o]erate equally well in every kind of land, and at the smite time he so simple in construe!ion and operation that it could he used hy ne groes without liability of getting out of order. A Drill which we think possesses all these qualities, we now offer to the planting community. After a thorough trial for the last two years in different hands on all kinds of land, we would state some of the advan tages to be derived from their use. Ist. The saving of seed, which will amount, to enough in planting one hundred acres, to pay for the machine. 2nd. The saving of labor in planting, one horse and hand only being required to open the furrow, drop the seed and cover Hum **v j on to nine acres per day. 3rd. The great, saving of labor in choppm;! I out, the seed being deposited in a line • j after mint her: 4tli. The great saving in subsequent, hoe work, owing t* the fact, that any good plow hand can, in siding, cover all the first crop of grass in the drill, however small the cotton nmy be, without, injuring the stand. These advantages all fanners w ill appreci ate; and below wo give some certificates, from which the public .con learn how DriiL are appreciated by gentlemen of the first standing in our section of the State—all prac tical fanners who have thoroughly tested them, and are consequently fully competent to decide oil their merits. Certificates* This is to certify that I planted one hun dred and sixty acres of cotton with Randall and Mercer’s Planters, and 1 consider them superior to any thing of the kind 1 have ever seen or tried. The saving of seed alone would pay for the machines in a season or two, and 1 think a hand can do one third more hoeing than lie could in cotton planted the other way. & L. BARBKR. Messrs. Randall A Mercer. —Gentlemen: In reply to yours of this date, I can say with satisfaction, that 1 have used your Cotton Seed Drills, on the farm of D. A. Vnson, Esq., with great success. I consider them to be of great value. They are a saving of about one third of the labor of cultivation, about two to three bushels of seed t o the aero in plant ing, and a great saving of labor in planting, us they open the furrow, and drop and cover tlie seed with one horse nnd hand. 1 think them worth one hundred dollars apiece to any planter that plants full crops of cotton. As for myself, 1 would not plant a crop of cotton without them for no consideration in the bounds of reason. Yours, very respectfully, A. J. BARKSDALE. Lee county, Go., July 12,1855. I have used Randall A Mercer’s Cotton Plan ter two seasons, and consider them of great value to the farmer. 1 save seed enough each year to pay for the Planters, then I save at least one third the labor of cultivation, as the cotton is sowed in so narrow a line that with good plowing there is but. little hoc work needed. There is also a saving of hands and horses in planting. 1 should say they were worth one hundred dollars each, and recommend every fanner to use them. S. D. McLENDON. Lee county, Ga., July 19, 1855. I have been overseeing for Mr. S. D. McLendon the present year, and fully concur in his statement above. DAVISSON WARREN. 6 Messrs. Ranpai.l tt Mercer. —Gentlemen : In reply to yours I will only say 1 have used three of your Cotton Seed Drills, and consider them of great value, from the fact that in the use of them I saved from two to three bushels of seed to each acre planted, and at least one third of the labor of cultivation, not requir ing one half as much hoe work ns the old way of planting—also, a considerable saving in the labor of planting. 1 never expect to plant cotton without them if I con get them at any prieo. 1 have planted eight acres per day to each drill. They are simple—cosily managed, and there is no difficulty about getting n good stand. Very respectfully, W. 11. HAMRK'K. Lee county, Ga., July 12, 1855. Thomahvillu. Thomas county Ga. Col. J. H. Watson, Dear Sir: I can recom mend your Cotton Planter Drill in the highest terms. 1 have tried them on all my lands except new ground, and I think they will do in that; they will do in a mountainous coun try as well as in o level. If I had not bought, 1 would travel to your shop, which is seven ty-five miles, and pay fifty dollars apiece for tnem. It. saves one-third of the work, one hand can plant ns much as two, and one hand can chop out one aero after a common plow. K. BRASWELL. Dougherty County, Gn., July 14,1855. J. 11. Watson—Sir: this is to certify that I liave used Randall A Mercer’s Cotton Seed Drill, of your manufacture, and am eo well pleased with them that. I would recommend all planters who have not tried them, to give them a fuir trial. Where the drills are used here is a great deal of labor saved iu culti- vating n prop, owing to its bring so uniform in the drill, tbo plowing run lir done much brltrr. and with greater despatch, consequent ly tbr hoe work is lighter, as good ploughing supersedes the necessity of a great deal of hard hoeing. JNO. BARKSDALE. This is to certify that I used one of Ruudnll A Mercer’s Cotton Seed Drills Inst year in planting my crop, and was well pleas ed. 1 have used five of them the present year, planting iny entire crop, and am still better pleased. There is a saving of between two nnd three bushels of seed to the Herein plant ing: besides one horse and one hand with these drills one does the work of three hands ami two horses. Then there is a saving of one-third the hoe work, the Cotton being in so straight and narrow a row. 1 consider them worth one hundred dollars each to planter, and recommend till to purchase and use them WM. IJ. OWENS. Dmigherty county, flu., duly 16, 1855. Mes-r-. Uaxi.au. v. jMrater.r.—ln reply lo yours of til,’ nth iust., in reference to your I Cotton Seed Drill, ! am happy to say that af ter planting a portion of my present crop in the old way, I was enabled to obtain one of your drills, with which 1 finished. It is the desideratum and long sought after. Many and varied have been tlte attempts of intelligent minds to attain what you have * complo-lmd, t.or withoniv period str'ees-. This leaves nothing to he'd, ind in a cotton drill. It deposits the seed uniformly and continuously in a straight and narrow line a you wish, saves about otto half the labor in planting, and about one third of the hoe work til cultivation. It is almost needless to add that 1 am delighted with your drill. Yours respectfully, * ,1. E. MERCER. Lee county, Go., August 10th, 1850. Messrs. Il.vNiMt.t, A Mintern—Gentlemen: l used one of your Cot!..: Seed Drills the past spring, and i le.-i mnr fmd paid for what it cost me. To give your drill a fair trial, 1 planted every other row with the Drill, and the intervening rows I planted as well as ev er cotton was planted before your Drill come into use. The result was, that in tho row I planted with your Drill 1 got n more perfect stand, nnd 1 think it grew off much better, besides I realized a greater saving in the la bor of working over my cotton the two first times. I shall continue to ,use them ns long as I plant cotton. Yours, Ac. JESSE COCK. Lee county, tin. Messrs. It ant. at.i it M kucet.— Gentlemen: I lmve Used eight of your Cotton Seed Drills manufactured by ,1. 11. Watson, mi Col. .1. Bond’s Fowltown plantation. 1 am much pleased with them, having realized great snv ing ot seed, of labor of planting and chopping out, and tin hands at the first siding could go over at least one-third more in a day, and do better work than in cotton planted in tho best way 1 could plant with a colter nnd block. 1 lmve no hesitntion in giving it as my opinion, that in the use of your Drills there is a saving of one-third of tiie Inhor of cultivating a cot ton crop. Col. Bond is pleased with them, nnd will continue their use. Yours respectfully, JAMES CUEEK. Fowltown, Gn., July Bill, 1855. This is to certify that 1 have used two of Randall it Mercer’s Cotton Planters, anil have no hesitation in saying that they will do. The saving of labor in plnnting is an object, the saving of seed is an object; nnd the cotton stands in such a narrow drill that it may almost he kept clean without the hops. There is nothing to equal them in planting cotton. WM. B. REYNOLDS.’ I.i.k County, On., July Ist, 1855. I have used Randall it Merecr’s Cotton Seed Drill, which I purchased of Col. ,1. 11. Watson, nnd think they are the best, machines now in use. lam satisfied there is a great saving in seed, nnd a greater saving in work. I am fully satisfied there is one-third of the hoe work saved. Try them, and any reason able man will he satisfied they nrc worth more than three limes the price they are sold for. .rHILIP WEST. Having obtained from Messrs.
