Garibaldi. —A foreign letter in the Traveller
says Garibaldi is a short, thin, nervous looking
man, a decided blonde; but his little grey eyes
have the sparkle of polished steel. His hair is
cut as short as possible. He wears his beard,
but there is nothing striking about it—you see
hundreds just like it on the boulevards; it is
beginning to be sprinkled with grey. I don’t
know whether he is cruel or not; he looks gen
tle, and one would give him absolution without
asking for confession. He is even so civilised as
to wear a pincenez, as his eyesight is failing.
He does not look as if he was more than forty
years, but he is fifty-three. He is* dressed in
the uniform of a Sardinian General—that is, in a
blue coat trimmed with silver. Garibaldi has
a son who is a soldier with him, and fights like
a lion by his father’s side. This young man is
two-and-twenty years old. .
Rev. John A. McClung, pastor of the Pres
byterian church at Maysville, Ky., has been
found drowned at Niagara Falls.
Dr. McClung was drowned in the Niagara
river, at Tonawanda, eight miles above the Falls,
where he went in alone to bathe. His clothing
was discovered on the shore several days after
he left his hotel to take a walk, and his body
was subsequently recovered from the river just
below the suspension bridge.
The deceased was a man of a high order of
genius. His father was a celebrated jurist in
the early annals of Kentucky, and liis mother
was a sister of the celebrated Chief Justice Mar
shall. Mr. McClung was educated at Princeton
for the ministry, but subsequently studied law,
and rose to high rank at the bar. He was elo
quent, profound and logical, but somewhat
escentric in manner. After a successful career
as a lawyer and politician, as well as an author,
he resumed his position in the church, and for
several months preached in the First Presby
terian Church of Cincinnati, Ohio. He declined
a call to the first Presbyterian Church in Augus
ta, Ga. He removed to Indianapolis, and after-
ward to Maysville, in the vicinity of which
place he was born. He was a brother of the
famous CoL McCluno, of Mississippi.
Dr. McCluno was about fifty years of age,
and leaves a wife and four children.
We understand that he has been in poor
health for a considerable time, and that he was
of a very nervous temperament Several years
since, whilst in Ridianapolis, he became partial
ly deranged, and lived for seven weeks without
sleep.
The deceased will be remembered as the
author of Sketches of Western Adventure, and a
historical novel entitled “Camden, a Tale of the
South.”

NEWS SUMMARY.
The Sea Island cotton crop of Texas will be
two or three times as laVge as that of last year.
The crop now promises remarkably well.
Macon.—Recent census returns show that
Macon contains 7,543 inhabitants—an increase,
since 1850, of 1,743.
The Grand Lodge of F. A. M., of the State
of Georgia, will convene in Macon on Wednesday,
26th October, instead of Tuesday, as heretofore.
The cars have approached within three and a
half miles of Talladega, Ala. The Reporter says
they may be expected at the depot in the course
as a month.
New Cotton at Macon. —The first bale of
new cotton was received at Macon, on Friday,
19th ult, from the Houston county plantation of
John B. Ross, and sold at twelve cents. Quali
ty, good middling.
New Cotton. —Messrs. Heard & Clarke re
ceived a bale of new Georgia Cotton on Tues
day, (22d instant.) It was classed middling, and

Augusta Constitutionalist, Aug. 26.
New Cotton.—The first bale of new cotton
was received in Hamburg on the 25th ult., from
the plantation of Mr. Joseph Crafton, Edgefield
District, S. C. It weighed 564 pounds, was
classed as Good Middling, and purchased at

Mormons Leaving Salt Lake.—The St. Jos
eph (Mo.) Gazette of the 9th ult., mentions the
arrival at that place of a number of Mormons
from Salt Lake City, U. T., who report that 4,000
or 5,000 recusant saints will make their exodus
from the valley this summer.
Health op Charleston.—The weekly bill of
mortality, published in this morning’s Mercury,
exhibits a total of twenty-one deaths for the last
reported week, of which nine were whites. Os
these nine, three were from old age, two from
consumption, two were children, one was
drowned, and the other from erysipelas.
The Richard R. Cuyler.—The New York
correspondent of the Charleston Courier says of
this new steamer: “Alongside where the Caro
lina is lying, the new propeller, to be called the
Richard R. Cuyler, in the Savannah line, was
yesterday towed. Her boilers arc all ready and
awaiting her on the deck. This new vessel is
of a most beautiful model, and if she is given
sufficient power will make some of the fast side
wheel craft ‘atir their stumps’ to beat her.”
Cotton Crop in West Floridia—Wo have a
letter, not intended for publication, from a gen
tleman, a planter of intelligence and experience,
residing near Tallahassee, with a memoranda,
dated as follows:
“August 10.—We are having daily and
copious rains. I really do not see what is to be
come of our Cotton crops. I fear our bright
prospects are blightened. The Cotton is drop
ping its forms rapidly, and the complaining is
general in the community.
“August 13.—1 t has continued to rain heavily
and steadily for three days, with still no prospect
of fair weather, and threatens a storm. The
crops must be ruined. The planters are all gloomy
enough.— Charleston Mercury.
Crop Prospects in Texas.—The Houston
(Texas) Telegraph says: “Notwithstanding this
has been a season memorable for its drought in
many parts ofTexas, the cotton planters, thus
far, have not been seriously affected by it or
troubled by the worm in any part of the State.
In many places the planters will make a good
deal more than lie can pick. Where this is the
case, of course his crop will rank higher and
bring the best price. We verily believe that Texas
will send at least three hundred and fifty thous
and bales if not four hundred thousand to market
during the next commercial year. The sugar
cane, as far as we can hear, is equally promising,
and the largest crop of sugar will be made that
has ever been realised in Texas. This, with
the increased facilities of transportation afforded
by the sugar road, will add very materially to
the wealth of the country, already the wealthiest,
to the population, in the United States.
We find the following paragraphs in the Sa
vannah Republican, of August 31st.:
Savannah Commerce. —No less than nine
steamships will take their departure from our
wharves, for northern ports, between this and
Monday next. This looks like the beginning of
a brisk season with the shippers. We also learn
that freights in amount far beyond their capacity,
are now waiting for their return trips.

Washington Items.—The Secretary of the
Navy has ordered Commander Hunt to the com
mand of steamer Narragansett, and Commander
Godon to that of the Mohican. As the names of
these officers immediately succeed upon the list
that of Commander M. F. Maury, it is settled
that that distinguished officer is to remain at the
head of the national observatory. This fact is j
not less advantageous to the administration of
the affairs of the department than gratifying to
the commercial interest.
Deputy Postmasters, under instructions of the
department, are making note of free matter pas
sing through their several offices, with a view to
report what would be the revenues thereon if
subject to present postage rates. Congress ap
propriates three-fourths of a million of dollars to
satisfy this service of the mails, but it is held at
the department that a much larger sum is re
quired.
COMMERCE OF NEW YORK.
The New York Courier and Enquirer of the

exports of the United States from 1821 to 1858,
'and the relative proportion which that great and
growing commercial State bore to the whole at
each separate period:

Comparative Safety of Railway and Steam
Boat Traveling.—Notwithstanding the lamen
table occurrences which go by the name of
railway accidents, and the large number of per
sons who are prematurely hurried out of the
world by rotten bridges, misplaced switches, and
other causes, the actual number killed, as com
pared with the number of persons traveling, is
far less by railway than by any other mode of
transport. Sinco 1853, the following disasters
have occurred in this country:

King Cotton.—The quantity of cotton wool
brought into England every year might be piled
into a pyramid which would rival that of Cheops.
The eight thousand five hundred and seventy
two millions (8,572,000,000) of miles of yarn
spun in England in a year, might be wound
round and round the earth, as a boy winds a
string around his top; or, we might throw the
shuttle over distant Uranus, and then tangle to
gether the “red planet Mars,” the Earth, Venus,
Mercury, and the sun, in our net of cotton. The
whole of the British Islands might be wrapped
up in cotton wool and put by carefully for in
spection of future ages, in not very many years
consumption of that raw material.
Ninety years ago at the commencement of our
manufacturing career, the population of Britain
was about eight millions. Now it lias reached
twenty-one millions. If it were not for cotton,
we could not keep our millions in England, clus
tering in masses round the central manufacturing
towns. If it were not for cotton we could not
clothe them, and if it were not, for cotton we
could certainly not feed them.
Household Words.
Statistics of Emigration.—The emigration
from Great Britain during the past year, as
shown by the report of the Commissioners, just
published, numbered 113,972, which is smaller
than during any year since 1855.
The emigration to the American continent in
1858 was less than half that of 1847, and scarce
ly more than one-fourth of the average of the
eight years between 1847 and 1855.
The Irish emigration for 1858 amounted to
rather less than 38 per cent, of the whole. —
The amount remitted by Irish settlers in Ameri
ca for assisting emigration of friends during the
past year was about $2,360,000. while, as the
whole Irish emigration was only 33,656, the ex
pense of it could scarcely have exceeded $1,000,-
000. During the ten preceding years the suras
remitted amounted to $49,680,000.
The number of emigrants who returned to the
United Kingdom in the yoar 1858 was 23,704,
of whom there came from America 18,841.
Between Ist January 1847, and 31st Decem
ber 1854, no less than 2,444,802 emigrants left
the United Kingdom, or on an average 305,600
a year. The highest number, 368,764, was at
tained in 1852, the lowest was in 1848, 248,089.
