sforfh British Review on Tectotal

We are indebted to Col. Williams, for the
February issue of Messrs Leonard Scott A Co’s
Republication of the forth British Review.

Italy; Curiosities of the Census: The ox~

Eleotric Telegraph.
The article “How to Stop Drunkenness’*
contains an expression of somo view*
temperance reformers everywhere would del
well to consider. -The writer
Jbitpry, or, at least, restrictive
but has no great reliance upon it for tbo eujyl

operations of the teetotallers have beea
hitherto too much negative in character.

them with a substitute for it. ■

access to the review.
Fined sloo.—At the Mayors court yester
day morning a men oonvioted of enticing sail
ors to leave the vessels on board which they
had shipped and been paid, was fined SIOO, In
this oaßo a sailor taken from ship Seawitch was
pursued by an officer and taken from Ship
Nebraska after she had crossed tho bar and
brought back to his proper quarters. We trur|
the decisive action of the Mayor in this mat

sance of which.tbero has recently been much
reason for great complaint?.

Lieut. Drake, of the United States ship De
oatur, gives an account m her recent voyage
which shows that the long absence of the ship
was ocotjoned by being confined in Magel
lan’s Straits Tor eighty-three days:
“ We were obliged to fight our way through
the Straits of Magellan inch by inch; nothing
bnt our Captain being a little game cock took
us through He asked me one night what I
thought. I answered that English, French and
American ships of war had tried and failed,
and I for one would go thro’ on half rations
rather than put back, and during the convex
sation he thought or tried to make me think
that we would fail. I told him he would fail
to make me believe that we could not go
through The Captain then said he was try
ing my game—he had heard said I would never
say ‘die.’ After my watch was out, he wished
to see me in his cabin, where we had some fur
ther conversation. Tosumupthis short let
ter, we were in the Straits days,
with but ten days good weather, the rest no
thing but gales of wind, with torrents of rnin,
hail and snow. Take it foil and by, I think
it was the dustiest travelling I have ever
seen.”
Ralu anl a River, at Last.
We are hnppy to announce that the re
cent rains have had the effect to raise our
river some five feet, so that at present we have
abundant water for navigation, with a pros
pect of its continuing for an indefinite period.
This long looked-for blessing will be hailed
with general delight by town and country, by
merchant and planter, io fact by all classes of
our citizens, for ail aro more or less affected
by the interruption of communication on this
important highway. We now look for a con
siderable improvement in our bn6iness affairs,
and somewhat less of stringency in the pro*
vision market, which, we must confess, has for
6ome time past been rather tight for general
convenience.
We may also expect lively times on the
river, while the season lasts, as there are
vast quantities of up-freights below, and any
amount of cotton destined either up or
down.

Ilhlps and Shipping. > T
The depression in the shipping interest for ,
several months past still exists, and there np- ;
pears to be no present prospect of improve • j
ment. To the war in Europe, and the partial
failure of the cereal crops last Summer, —as we
have heretofore had occasion to remark, —is !
the present unsatisfactory condition of the j
carrying trade mainly referable: but a glanco ‘
at the following figures must convince those
practically acquainted with tho subject, that
the great increase of the tonago of the United
States during the past few years, has, to some
extent, contributed to the present stagnation.
Rapid as has been the progress of population
in this Country for the past forty years, the
increase in the amount and value of the touage
employed in the carrying trade has vastly
outstripped it. While* population has about
doubled itself in thirty-four years, our tonoge
has quadrupled in that time. In the year
1820, the total touage registered and enrolled
was 1,280,163 tons, and in 1854 it was 4,802,*
902 tons. The general pacification of Europe
in 1815, found us with a tonnage of 1,368,127,
of which 854,294 tons were registered, the
remainder being unrolled and licensed, repre
senting with tolerable accuracy the propor
tions of the tonage engaged in the Foreign and
Coasting trade. From 1815 till 1822, it ap
pears that the tonoge declined in amount, and
it was not until the year 1853 that it
again equalled that it had been in
1815. The cause of this decline it is not
now our purpose to explore. It was doubt
less caused mainly by the ability of the na
tions of Europe to do for themselves that
which, as a neutral power, we had been doing
for them on the ocean during the progress of
the Continental war. From 1824 till 1828, the
amount of tonnage gradually increased, until
in that year it reached 1,741,391 tons- Tho
next year it decreased nearly half a million
tons, and did not attain the point it had been
Ifet in 1828 until tho year 1934, since whict%
Hfee it has been steadily increasing. From
mBA to 1844 the increaso of toonngo w*s.

rant \ho substitution.
The investment in vesssels is a very large
one, and the amount perhaps will astonish some
of our readers if we estimate tho first cost of
these vessels-—steam and sailing—at fifty dol
lars per tom (a very low estimate,) it wil
amount to $240,645,000. tho annual interest
on which at the legal rate, is fourteen millions,
four hundred thousand dollars ! But the an
nual earnings of the vessels must not only
include the interest on their cost, but also
repairs and renewals. If wc place these aa
equal to a total destruction in twelve years,
wo shall have $20,203,750, which added to
the nnnual interests, make 5534,903,750 as the
total annual earnings of our Commercial Ma
rine. This amount, then, represents tho value
of the labor either directly or indirectly em
ployed in the home department of industry
pertaining to Navigation.
At present, ship building is ut u stand, and
wo do not look for any permanent improve
ment so Jong as tbo currying trade continues
thus oppressed; but the new fields of couf*
merce constantly opening for our euterprizing
shipowners will preclude the possibility of a

Wo are gratified to learn that this Corapauy
have succeeded in purchasing a majority of the
Shares of Stock in the Tallahassee Railroad
Company. Their object is t.) bring the latter
into the general system, and thereby secure
its re construction with such grade and weight
of rail as will permit the use of steam power,
nnd make this road not only fully adequate to
do the business of the country with despatch,
but also to secure to the purchasing company
an extension to a Gulf Port in the Middle Dis
trict, through which they can import their iron
and materials for commencing to build their
main line, both East and West from this pltme.
Without thi3 purchase, they must have belh
delayed for several years, or until more than a
hundred and fifty miles of road were constructs
ed from the Atlantic. But with it. every twen
ty miles of road, in either direction, becomes
a paying road. Where a section is built into

Weekly’ Review of Hie New Orleans
Market.
FRIDAY NIGHT, MARCH 16.—There has been
little or no impfovement in our market this week,
its general tone being that of dullness, occasioned
by the want of supplies from theintcrior, where the
rivers have, until recently, been so low ns to pre
vent free navigation. The latest telegraphic ad
vices, however, announce a considerable rise in the
Ohio, and we may soon expect large receipts of pro
duc *, which have been long kept back by the un
navigible condition of that river and of the Upper
Mississippi.
Cotton. —The market opened with a good demand
on Saturday, and notwithstanding the unfavorable
tenor of the Canada’s letters, the business of the
day reached 5000 bales at full price*. On Monday
and Tuesday 7500 bales changed hands, at extreme
rates for tho better qualities, which continued rela
tively very scarce, and, of course, were relatively
much dearer than the lower grades. Wednesday
and Thursday passed without any material change,
trie sales of tho two days amounting to 9500 bales.
To-day the Pacific’s accounts are before the public,
but seem to h.vve produced little or no effect upon
our scantily supplied market, anti 3500 bales have
been sold, making a total of 26.500 bales for the
week, taken cbiefiy for Great Britain and t.lio Con
tinent. The receipts from the Ist of September to
date comprise 893,784 bales against 968,779 to the
same time last season, showing a decrease of 74,995
bales. The stock on hand to night is 83,664 bales
against 254,873 at the same time last year.

WORTH READING.
To the ,ncredu l° Ufl sufferer who may
still linger between hope, fear and
doubt. Dr Morris begs leave to say, that if you are
disposed to pay liberally for being cured of two
complaints, viz: your disease nnd doubts, bring
your patient nnd deposit from SIOO to S3OO, accord
ing to the case,in the hands of some responsible in
dividual or firm, as a foe to be paid when a cure
shall be effected, and I will deposit with the same
individual or firm one fourth the amount a* a for
feit, and will charge no bill for services rendered or
medicines furnished, should I fail to effect a cure.
It is a fact well known both to the profession as
well as to the suffering community, that Chronic
diseases require a varied andlong continued treat
ment to produce permanent results, and’tis un
generousto expect a physician to furnish medicines
and give his attention to complaints of this nature,
and wait 6 and 12 months for his fee.
I wish it distinctly understood, that I practice
my branch of tho profession for cash only. All
those desiring my services hereafter will pay my
fee at tho time of consultation or enter into bond
as above. Bring along the patients but be certain
to bring the dimes, else the masculine fowl cant bo
made to fight.
I can be found at my office No. 78 Bryan street,
during the day and evening till 10 o’clock.
Ladies afflicted with irregularities, fluor, albus,
Ac., diseases peculiar to them and so destructive to
their health and happiness, would do well to lay
aside false delicacy and consult personally or by
letter Dr. Morris. All consultations or commu
nications strictly confidential and promptly attend
edto. Treatment invariably pleasant and without
restrictions. Dr W. H. MORRIS,

HOLLtWAY’S OINTNENT AND PILLS,
The best remtdy for the cure of Fc

effect these Pills have upon all complaints pecu
liarly incidental to females, would appear incredible
to the citizens of the Union, if it were not confirm

various States. It is an unquestionable fact that*
there is not any remedy to equal them for ex
