COTTON ITEMS.

There has been ffty-one bales O.
cotton sent North yer the Blue Line
during the past week.
Cotton is being shipped from New
Orleans to Liverpool by steamer for
I'd freight, and by sail I'd. Insurance
is p cents.
The cotton presses expect to do a
big business this season, and propose
to charge seventy-fve cents per bale
for COMPRISING.
Cotton pickers are in much de-
mand by planters. One dollar per
hundred Is freely given, and the
chances + wages will go up.
Since the LIST instant, New Orleans
has received $50 bales of cotton,
against l041 same time last year. The
stock on hand is reduced to 400 bales.
Cotton is sold for specie through
out Texas. The first bale of Rusk
county growth was. sold on the 18th
of August at twenty-five and q half
cents, gold.
-Freights on cotton from here to
New York are 81 90 per hundred, and
to Boston 81 10. These rates are ex-
pected to rule during the season. The
prospects are that cutting under will
not be INDUCED in. iasll ta.
-Middling cottons sold In New Or
leans on Monday last at thirty-twO
cents per bale. Here the price was
thirty-two and a half to thirty-three
cents, and quick sales at that. Planters
should make a note of this.I
Shipments ofcotton since the first
inst, 217 bales. Present stock in the
city, l46 bales, of which more than.
forty is understandable, having been
sunk in the river for a year or more
and needing manipulation.
Our market Is bare of cotton. The
imports being taken as fast as it
arrives for spinners' consumption. The
demand exceeds the supply and the
total receipts since the first inst. have
been III bales. Not more than ten or
fifteen have come in by wagons.
Cotton men predict that the pack
cts arriving Sunday will bring over
one hundred bales of new cotton.
Their estimate of the maturing crop
is reducing daily, and $50, 000,O 900 bales
Is regarded q maximum, while as low
as two millions Is thought of by some.
A medium viii probably be nearer the
actual figures.
"A gentleman Of this city, just re-
turned from an extensive tour through
Alabama and East Mississippi, re-
ports cotton in the prairies OF East
Mississippi and about Meridian as in
good condition and promising an ex-
cellent yield. The caterpillar has done
considerable injury In the country be-
tween Montgomery and the Missis-
sippi line, but the crop has not been
greatly injured.

DEcLINATiON.
Maj. W. ". Guy Declines TO Become
a Candidate for President of
the Chamber of Commerce.
MEMpHIs. TEyv.. september

MEMPHIS, TENN, September Q, 1859.
Editors appeal: Allow me to an
nounce through your paper, that 1 am
not a candidate for the position of
President of the Memphis Chamber of
Commerce; during my absence from
the city, some of my friends, on the
Nominating Committee, much against
my wishes, presented my name for
the nomination; had it have been ac-
ceptable to all the members, l might
have yielded my own objections and
consented to serve; but since there is
opposition, l must decline to be a con-
te5tant for a place which 1 have
neither sought or desired.
Very respectfully, ". W. GUY.
In common with very many of our
readers, we must regret that Mai. Guy
has decided to Withdraw his name
from the contest for President of the
Chamber. Known to be an active,
stirring business man, having as much
influence probably as any merchant of
his age in our ~eity-being the head of
a prominent business house, he would
bring the Chamber, if elected, a
weight which could not but be bene-
fetal to that institution.

HORRIBLE AFFAIR
An U. S. officer Deliberately Murders
a Prisoner.
The Murderer Arrested and Lodged
in Jail.
U. S. Troops sent to Rescue Him,
ETC., etc.

A passenger who arrived by the
Memphis and Charleston Railroad
last night, gives us the following par
ticulars of a most atrOciOus and infa-
nous outrage-a deed characteristic,
however, OF the present t" powers that
be" and rule over this q free and en-
lightened country"
On Monday evening last a man
named Trautweine, Ia Deputy U. s.
Internal Revenue Collector, withal a
dirty rad-republican, ans cuLOte,D ac-
companied by another of his ilk,
named Whitmore, "a thief and liar by
his own cOnfession) went out to his
farm to arrest an old man named
Dedman, whose alleged crime
was that ne had converted a few
bushels of peaches into brandy for
homie consumption.
On arriving at Mr.. Dedman's, they
found him engaged in some Occupa-
ton about the stable, and Immediately
placed him u der arrest. Not know
ing "Wh iOre," he demurred, but
was forced by the two bruteS to
mount their wagon nOtens UOLenS.
About midway between the stable
yard and house, he was told by either
rrautstein or munore to run for
his life" This he essayed to do, and
as he made the attempt he was shot
down by the two Yankee universal
suffragists." who had merely enticed
him to make the attempt in order to
murder him the more scientifically.
The poor old man was killed, but the
shots, reverberating among the hills
and wales aroundl nggold drew out a
number Ofthe better class of citizens,
who Immediately arrested the two
thieving, numbering universal Sn6rG-
giSts, and committed them to Ring
gold Jail.
They, relying of course on the
support of the General Govern
ment," Immediately sent by telegraph
for United States troops to protect and
rescue them. The last we heard
Through our informant mentioned
above) no less than one whole battal-
ion of United States troops had been
sent and were on their way (Wednes
day EVENING" to take these murderers
out of Jail. We await further devel-
opments by telegraph.

formed another gastronomic feat. A

that he had taken a whole box Of
compound cathartic pills, and expect
ed to publish next day, as a sequel to
the story, an extended obituary of
JOcko; but he weathered the storm
bravely, and still lives. On Saturday,
while the painters were at work on
the boat, a bucket containing seven
pounds Of white lead was missing,
and, after a long search, the bucket
was found, but was entirely empty.
Shortly afterward JockO came creep
ing into Charlie Miller's room, with
his paws and face smeared with white
lead. He had eaten the paint and
was very sick, and 1t was thought
certain that he was a gone monkey;
but, contrary to all expectations, he
was cutting "didoes" on the guys
yesterday, as lively as ever.

Gus offer of the Faculty of the 1nsti-
tute at Lexington, Va, to the Print
ers' Union has been appreciated, and
the appointment made. Tuition for
two years is no trifing boon 10 a
young man who is DESTROYS to
obtain an education. At the same
time / do not think it has
been met in the spirit that the offer.
was intened.
The wide world is perfectly aware
that the College at Lexington is.
Southern all over, and the offer was
intended to benefit some poor fellow,
who had lost the chances by the terri
bic war just over-some Southern soIs
der or soldiers son-who had should
red his musket in defense OF the
South and her institutions. But
how is it the appointment has
been given to a Northefn adj
venturer, whose every sentiment
is opposite to the South In every
particular? Is there any Justice in
such aproceeding? Mustthese North

MARRIED.-0ne of the largest and
most interesting gatherings of people
ever assembled in Calvary Church
was seen yesterday on occasion of the
marriage of Mr.. Decatur Doyle to Miss
Julia Montgomery, daughter of our
esteemed friend, H. A. Montgomery,
Esq. The ceremony, according to the
ritual of the Episcopal Church, was
performed by the Rev. Dean Kinds,
of st. Mary's Cathedral. The bride
was escorted to the altar by her father
and the groom by his mother, widow
of DR.. Doyle, fer many years lead
ing member of the faculty in Mem
phis. Much of interest attached to
this wedding from the position Occu-
pied by the respective families of the
bride and groom-an interest that was
attested by the presence of many of
our most respectable merchants and
business men and ladies Of the highest
circles. We cannot permit the inter-
esting occasion to pass without con-
veying to Mr.. Doyle and his beautiful
bride our congratulations, and ex-
pressing what we know was the
heartfelt, sincere prayer of their
friends, that their path of life may be
smooth, pleasant and agreeable, and
that in perfect harmony and accord
they may become so blended as that
indeed they shall be one. We wish
them joy.
