The sales reached 100 bales, which more than two-thirds were or North Alabemas and Tenmes- sees. The market yesterday very inactive only d. bout 500 bales having been sold but the inactivity was more owing, we believe, to the limited quantity cot ton offering and 10 the ul prices which asked to any positive want of demand.

ToL. p-TERMs a4.
- VOL 2 ENMb Syb. -
FENHE first volume of the Journal and Reyie

FEy HE first volume of the Journal and Review
| Ill is now completed. For many reasons we
feel greatly strengthened for the commencement
of the second. We are satisfied from the reception
of the work thus Tar that its merits are appreciated
aud that the people Of the South aud West are fully
aware of the great benefit and credit that would
accrue TO our magnificent country from literary
periodical of substantial and elevated character.
We at first projected such work, and believe the
Press both East and West approve the Judgment
with which il is conducted While one has pro-
nounced it second only TO the "Southern Literary
Messenger" afforded at S., another has declared
it inferior to meme in the Union. While one has
given II an equal rank with that sterling S5 work
the "knickerbocker," another has placed it iniin-
tely above those splendid magazines which com
mand the most popular favor If fsuch be the rep
uation of the Journal in its infancy we think much
more can be expected from its manhood. What
western man would not rejoice TO see periodical
breathing the spirit and testing the power of the
western mind? Who does not acknowledge the
great benefit resulting from literary journal that
invites the activity of the nobler part OF man,
makes known the sentiment and spirit of those in
our midst who think and desire the greatest good
tom man? Through its pages those in every section
OF our great West, whose philosophy and philan-
thropy would otherwise be unknown and unfelt
could speak to the reason and hearts of their friends
and neighbors, and thus do much to elevate and
ennoble. But it is scarcely necessary to refer to
these mateis-every one knows all we wish to
convey, and we are confident Will act TOR the best
interests of himself and fellows.

From the Sunday Mercury.
IRISH MACHINE POETRY.


Jem Dodge m ,rried ould Judy Rouse
Och. she was charming young bride;
With turf he then built brick house,
And the front door was on thelbaGk side.
The roof was tiled with oat straw,
~ And the cellar was on the first floor,
And the chimney in order to draw,
Was built just outside of the door.
A beggar was Teddy Malone,
His sister was his only brother;
He had nothing at all of his own,
Except what belonged TO bis mother.
One night Teddy says to the squire,
Tn so cold give me something to eat,
I'm so dry, let me sit by the fire,
And so hungry must warm my feet.
Och! honey, ole day says Pat TTgg,
For he was a scandaous glutton,
Tomorrow III kill my fat pig,
For Pm sure he'll make illigant mutton;
So then he goes into the hovel,
And hangs the pig up by the heel,
Cut his throat all so nice with shovel,
Saying, This Is the way to dress veal!
One day Pat Mullgan swore,
He had scalt all his mouth to blister,
Whik at dinner the morning before
And what was it wild? asked his sister.
Says Paddy just thiy for to guess,
Och, can't-then I'll tell you my swate,
Twas nothing at all more or less
Than raw roasted frozen potato"

05. We heard a story, some time since, of Joe,
which will bear repeating.
Joe was one evening seated in the bar room of
country tavern in Canada, where were assembled
several old countrymen discussing various matters
connected with the 'pomp and circumstance of
war; In the course of some remarks one of them
stated that the British government possessed the
largest cannon in the world, and gave the dimen-
sions of one which he had seen Joe's Yankee
pride would not allow him to let such an assertion
pass without contradiction,
"Poh! gentlemen" said he, 81 won't deny but
that's fair sized cannon, but you are leetle mis-
taken in supposng it to be the largest in the world.
It's not to be named in the largest in the world.
It's not to be named in the same minute with one
of our Yankee guns that saw in Charleston last
year. Jupiter! that was a cannon. Why, sirs, it
is SO Internally large, that the soldiers were oblg-
ed to employ yoke of oxen to draw in the ball!'
'The devil they were" exclaimed one Of his
hearers, with smile of triumph; 'pray can you
tell me how they got tn. oxen out again."
"Why, you fool" returned Joe, "they unyok-
ed 'em and drove 'em through the venh"- White

A BEAUTIFUL IDEA.-At a late public meeting
in New York, says the Telegraph. the Rev. ].
Spaulding dwelt few moments on the deathless
nature and extent Of moral influence. "Away
among the Alleghanies, said he. "there is spring
50 small that single OK summers day could
drain it dry. 1t steals its unobtrusive way among
the hills, till il spreads out in the beautiful Ohio;
thence it stretches away thousand miles, leaving
on its banks more than a hundred villages, and
cities, and many thousand cultivated farms; and
bearing on its bosom more than half thousand
steamboats,; then joining the Mississippi it stretch
es away, and away some twelve hundred miles
more, till it falls into the great emblem of eternity
II is one Of the tributaries Of that ocean, which,
obedient only to God, shall roll and roar till the
angel, with one foot on the sea, and the other on
the land shall lift up his hand to heaven and swear
that time shall be no longer. So with moral influ-
ence. It Is rill-a rivuet-a river--an ocean
boundless and fathomless as eternity"

A HINT.-The new postage law which goes
into effect the first of July presents postnasters
from franking letters containing money for the
payment of subscriptions TO publications. Those,
therefore, who deslrous of saving postage would
do well to act on this hint and forward their dues
to publishers al once.

REVOLUTIONARY ANEcDoTE.-A venerable
American Judge relates the following reyolutiona-
ry anecdote:
The morning following the battle of Yorktown,
had the curiosity to attend the dressing of the
wounded; and among others whose limbs were so
much injured as to require amputation, was a mu-
sican, who had received musket ball in the knee.
As was usual in such cases, preparations were
making to lash him down to the table to prevett
the possibility of his moving Says the sufferer.
"Now, doctor, what would you be at'"
"My lad l am going to take off your leg; and
It's necessary you should be lashed down"
"lll consent to no such thing You may pluck
the heart from my bosom, but you'll not coniine
me. Is there fiddle in the ent'-if SO, bring it
to me-"
A violin was furnished, ard after tuning it he
said, ."Now doctor begn;" and he continued to
play until the operation, which took about forty
minutes, was completed, without missing note
or moving muscle.

SALLY successful career, from its commencement
until the present time, when it has "A circulation
exceeding by thousands any other Magazine in the
country, is perhaps good evidence ofits great
and increasing merit as the publisher has il in his
power to offer To his old subscribers, he trusts
no assurances necessary of his determination to
maintain its present ascendancy over all the rival
periodicals ofthe country. The engagement, per-
manently, during the past year, of such men as
Bryant, Cooper, Paulding, Dana, Longfellow,
Hoffman, Neal, Mancur, etc., ofhigh reputation
in the literary world, as regular contributors, in
addition 10 previous list, embracing the first
names in the nation, IS sufficient guarantee that
the work will continue to be the principal medium
of communication between the best authors and
the public.
Graham's Magazine has been, from its establish
ment, more than any other the favorite periodical
of the people of the United States Though its
plan does not entirely exclude articles of the most
important character, such as have raised Black
wood and some other foreign journals to their
high influence and reputation, its pages are prin-
cipally devoted to what is usually termed light
literature. 1t is distinguished from other pnbli-
cations of similar aims by the literary and artistic
merit of its contents. While those Of other works
are unknown or anonymous, the contributors to
this are the most eminent authors of our age and
country; the very creators, founders, of onr Ma
onal Literature. Especially is it celebrated as
containing the choicest productions of the finest
female writers of the time. Every number con-
taIns gems which may be appeaedto with prideb by
the sex, as vindicating their intellectual emnence
1t may safely be asserted that Graham's Maya
zine has regularly engaged better corps of writers
than any other magazine; that since its establish
men il has been the pioneer in magazine lterature;
and that the contributors OF 'Grahani" have, by
their able contributions, given higher national
character TO periodical literature in the United
States than it ever before possessed. With such
list of writers as our pages exhibit, we may chal
lenge the criticism OF Europe. There is no maga-
zine abroad that presents any thing like such an

AN AUTHENTIC ANEcDoTE oE"JAcK."-A
short time before the resignation of the late Secre-
tary Of the Navy Mr.. Mason, on the arrival of one
of our vessels OF war. application was made by a
number of the of that vessel for their discharge
who, havingshipped for five years, had two yet to
serve MIR. Mason replied to their request, that il
they would refund the bounty money (Which was
paid them at the time of their enlistment accord
ing to law, for binding themselves to ser, five
years instead of three) they should be discharged,
They consented, and were discharged. Shortly
AFTER this, these men falling into the hands of an
attorney in New York were persuaded il they
would place the matter in his hands, the 'bounty''
| they had refunded could be restored to them. A
deputaon comprising eight seamen, headed by a
boatswains mate, six feet two inches in height, a
noble looking fellow, was despatched forthwith
| to Washington.
Having announced their arrival they marched
into the Secretarys Office, lead by the boatswain's
mate, whom Mr.. Mason described as one of the
noblest specimens of the human race, in point OF
proportion and presence, he had ever seen, and
who, with certain spasmodic roll, swung himself
unnvited into the chair of state which is reserved
especially for members of the cabinet in their
visits to the department. Being the spokesman of
the party, the object was briefly announced to Mr..
Mason. 'We want that bounty money back again,
sir; and will have il by fair or foul play, any how"
The Secretary very kindly replied, that with every
desire to oblige them it was utterly out of his pow
er, inasmuch as the law took the matter entirely
out of his hands, required that no man should
receive bounty unless he s,rped five years.
"We then, sir, said the spokesman, ''if we can't
get justice in our service, we will go into the
British navy, that's the short of it," Mr.. Mason
gravely replied, with some little tartness, 'My
lads, if, after having served under the stars and
stripes of this glorious Union, you are willing to
serve England the sooner you go the better; you
will be no loss"
The noble tar Immediately sprang upon his feet,
advanced to the Secretary Of the Navy, caught
one Of his hands in both of his, and giving it
Tremendous squeeze, his eyes flashing fire, said
"By jingo, my old chap, them's my sentiments;
this bloody lawyer has dumfoodled the whole of
us; with which he stalked out of the office, his
followers close upon his heels On coming out
some one asked, "Well, boys, what's the RESULT"
"Why," said Jack, 'we didn't get the money, but
we got id good satisfaction"
This anecdote, with but little variation, was told
to the writer by gentleman, who received it
direct from Mr. Mason's lips.
