FUN, FACT, AND PHILOSOPHY. Ax Exchange publishes two lines of the great epic upon General Jackson, written by a Wes tern bard : “When you see their eyes glisten, then, my men, fire!” Were the last dying words of A. Jackson, Esquire.” There are three hundred and ten churches in Philadelphia free from taxation, the united pro perty of which is assessed at nearly four millions of dollars. (4,000,000.) Nothing elevates us so much as the presence of a spirit familiar, yet superior to our own. ‘I love to look upon a young man. There is a hidden potency conoealed within his breast which charms and pains me.’ The daughter of a phrase-maker for a certain leading journal hap pening to find the above sentence as he had left it on his desk, sat down and added: — “Them’s my sentiments, exactly, papa,—all but the pains.” The readings to be given in this country next fall, by Charles Dickens, are to be sixty in num ber, for which he is to receive $25,000 cash, and one-fourth of tho net proceeds. It is not what wo eat that nourishes, but what the stomach digests. So it is not what we read that maket wise, but what we digest men tally. Ip you wish to offer your hand to a lady, choose your opportunity. The best time to do it is when she is getting out of an omnibus. Create not imaginary difficulties; sufficient are tho real ones we have each to encounter in the course of our lives. “I don’t think, husband, that you are very smart.” “No, indeed, wife, but everybody knows that I am fearfully shrewd." The once powerful tribe of Pequot Indians now numbers only thirty-one persons. In the affairs of life a man should be prepared for the journey he has to make, as well as for his ultimate destination. “Capital punishment,” as tho boy said when Jblhe school-mistress seated him with the girls. The costume of the Spanish ladies has not changed for two hundred years. Wht does no man confess his vices? It is because he is yet in them. It is for a waking man to tell his dreams. “Are your near sighted, Miss," said an im pertinent fellow to a young lady, who did not choose to recognize him. “Yes, at this distance lean hardly tell whether you are a pig or a puppy.” The marine losses for the month of July, show an aggregate of seventeen vessels, and a total value of property lost of $1,053,600. The losses of the«six months of the presont year foot up $7,016,800. Good intentions should not justify evil actions in the sight of man, any more than good actions will justify evil intentions in tho sight of God. Anacharsis, the Scythian, of Bartlielemi, is reproached by an Athenian with the barbarity of his native land. “The difference between us two is this,” replies Anacharsis, “My country is a disgrace to me, but you are a disgrace to yours." , Within the limits of New York and Kings counties, which, for all practical purposes, may be considered as one county, there are 420 churches, seating comfortably 355,000 persons. The aggregate salaries of the pastors of these churches amount to $620,000, or an average of about $1,750 per annum each. The man who builds a house that he has not the means to pay for, simply provides a home to run away from. “Why don't you ask your sweetheart to marry you?” “I have asked her." “What did she say?” “Oli, I’ve the refusal of her.” New York Suqar Trade. —The annual re port of the New York Chamber of Commerce, just issued, states that the quantity of brown sugar used by the refineries, annually in that city, is about 252 millions of pounds, (112,000 tons,) producing at an estimate of 60 per cent, over 66,000 tons of refined sugar. Let Wit be your acquaintance, Judgment your friend, and Speech your servant. “What papers off my writing desk are you burning there?” cried an author to his servant girl. “Oh, only the paper what’s all written over, sir; I hain't touched the clean.” The number of emigrants arrived at New York since the commencement of the year is 42,778, against 40,561 for a corresponding period in 1858. He that will live happily, must neither trust to good fortune, nor submit to bad; he must be prepared against all assaults. A pretty girl attended a ball out West, re cently, decked off in short dress and pants. The other ladies were shocked. She quietly re marked that if they would pull up their dresses about the neck, as they ought to be, their skirts would be as short as hers 1 The French government have determined to include in the accomplishments of the army, a knowledge of the art of swimming, as a conside ble number were drowned in crossing the rivers of northern Italy. Excess of ceremony shows want of breeding. That civility is best which excludes all super flous formality. “I’m afraid,” said a lady to her husband, “that I’m going to havo a stiff neck.” “Not at all improbable, my dear,” replied the spouse, “I've seen strong symptoms of it ever since we were first married.” We learn, says the New York Evening Post, that Adam’s Express employs 3782 men; that its messengers travel daily 40,152 miles on rail roads and steamers. Nothing more completely baffles one who is full of trick and duplicity than the straight-for ward and simple integrity in another. Strangled by a Snake. —The Hmgham (Mass.) Journal records the recent decease of Mr. Daniel Cothrell of that town, who had for some time past been troubled by a living snake in his stomach. Several attempts were made to eject the reptile by different methods, which proved unavailing, until at last boiled milk was resorted to, the steam of which, as it entered the mouth of Mr. C., started the snake into his throat, where it stuck fast, and before it could be removed Mr. C. choked to death. It is sup posed that Mr. C. swallowed the snake when it was quite small, while drinking. XHE 80VX1K8B& XXKX.B END XXKESXEE. PERSONAL. Ex-President Pierce and wife arrived, at Bos ton, cn the 27th ult. in the America. Kossuth’s fluency in Italian is as much ad mired in Genoa as his English was in America. Gen. Tom Thumb has returned from England, settled down for life, and—wants to marry. Kit Carson, the great trapper and woodsman, is en route from Taos, New Mexico, hitherward- It is stated that Mr. Alfred Tennyson con templates a tour in the United States the com ing autumn. The sister of Chateaubriand, Countess Mar ino, living at Dinan, Bretague, has celebrated her hundretli birthday. Mrs. Elizabeth Rudisill died on the 28th ult., near Hanover, Pa., at the advanced age of one hundred and eleven years, nine months and twenty-two days. The gold snuff box bequeathed by Gen. Jack son to the bravest soldier in the next war after his death, was presented in the City Hall, at Nashville, Tenn., on the 18th ult., to General Wabd B. Burnett, of New York. Gen. Pillow received the box on behalf of the recipient. Charles Dickens has made an engagement to visit this country during next autumn. While here he will give sixty “Readings” according to a pre-arranged programme, at various points, for the very reasonable remuneration of twenty five thousand dollars cash at the start, and one fourth of the net profits of the exhibition. Carl Formes, the celebrated basso, lately passed through London, en route to the Rhine, intending to remain there for a short time to re pose after his arduous tour through North and South America, where his success was fully commensurate with the great reputation he brought from Europe. He had a large money box with him. The North Carolinia Christian Advocate states that five Missionaries from the Southern Metho dist Church will sail for Japan in November, in cluding Rev. M. L. Wood, of the North Carolina Conference; Rev. Mr. Allen, of the Georgia Con ference; Rev. Mr. Stewart, of Tennesseo Confe rence, and two ministers from the Memphis Con ference. Mrs. Alexander Kerr, translator of Ranke’s “History of Servia,” etc., has recently had the honor of being admitted as a member of the Antiquarian Society of Vienna, (Alterthums Verein.) She is the first English lady who has received the diploma of this society. Mrs. Kerr has also been admitted as a member of the Geograghical Society of Vienna. The Washington (D. C.) Star, of the 17th inst., says: One of the department librarians has re ceived a letter from Mons. Vattemare, the originator of international book exchanges, Ac., concerning his project. Though he is apprehen sive that its complete success at the present time may be prevented by the many obstacles which are likely to present themselves, still he trusts that there is a better day in the future for his plans. The following are the names and ages of the Revolutionary soldiers supposed to be alive, who are pensioned on the rolls of the State of Virginia. William Cunningham, ninety-five; George Estes, ninety-six and a half: Daniel Hicks, Sr., over ninety-seven; William Oney, ninety-eight and a half; Peter Rife, ninety seven; William Stewart, ninety-eight; Mat thew Seay, ninety-six; Henry Willoughby, one hundred. Hon. Wm. C. Preston is now in Virginia. His health is very poor. The “inspired de claimer,” to whoso burning words Senators have listened, enraptured—the magnificent Orator— is as feeble in body as a little child. Leaning on the arm of a friend, a few Sabbath since, he slowly, painfully, advanced to the chancel of the Episcopal Church, and kneeling fervently, par took of the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper. Among the notable men who were born or who have lived in Newburyport, Massachusetts, are the Rev. Drs. Tyxg and Spring, of New York; Professor Parsons, of Harvard College; Colonel Albert Pike, the eccentric poet of Ar kansas; Hon. Caleb Cushing, and Lord Timothy Dexter, the genius who made a fortune by shipping warming-pans and mittens to the West Indies, and once wrote an illiterate book without punctuation, but with several pages of points at the end, with directions to tho reader to “salt and pepper as ho chused.” • That noble institution, the Astor Library, has recently been enlarged to double its former di mensions, through the munificence of Mr. Wil liam B. Astor. Tho new building stands to the North of the old one, of which it is an exact du plicate as to size and exterior appearance. An arched passage on tho second or main library floor, connects tho two buildings. The enlarge ment cost one hundred and twenty thousand dollars —making the entire outlay for the buil ding two hundred and sixty thousand dollars. This sum does not include the books. 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 sold for twelve cents per pound. 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 thirteen cents per pound. Fratricide. —A difficulty occurred six miles from Macon on last Monday, between Augustus and Jackson Roberts, brothers, (residents of Jones county), in which both were killed—each shooting the other with a pistol. 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. The following is the census of Chatham coun ty, for 1859: Free white males between 6 & 16..

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 20th instant furnishes an interesting table, col lated from the annual report of the New York Chamber of Commerce, showing the imports and 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: IMPOSTS, Year.

Since that period (1850) gas-light companies, in not only every part of this Union, but in South America, and Central America, Mexico, and the British provinces, have been forming rapidly. -—~ ■- in 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. —i a i i The potato crop, it is universally agreed, was never more abundant in quantity nor finer in quality than it is this season, in every section of the country. harried.
