On Saturday night, officer Eglingtoii arrested Ito approach as nearly as can be done, I will state ft few facts for the benefit of all concerned —one fact is wtJrth a thoasaird theories in com ing to a proper estimaLC fif the present crop. A large New York dealer, who has traveled ex tensively ill Alab.ama, Mississippi, and Louis iana, visiting Alontgoincry, Alobile, New Or leans, Vicksburg, and many of the interior towns, by public and private conveyance, was asked how he succeeded in his coIlectUins his answer was this: ‘a thing has happened to me that never occurred before; I have Collected more money on notes not doe, than I did 011 those that were due; stating that the reason was, planters had been enabled from good weather for gathering tlieir crops, the good condition of Mre navigable streams,^ and the facility of railroads, with the good condition of the common roads, (tintil the late cold weather and snow) to which mnst be added the fine price paid for cotton in the early part of the season, stimnlating farmers to push forward their crops, and make sales to such an extent that it actually caused cotton to fall one cent a pound, which it has bnt recently recovered. By the sales made by tlie planters, and con sequent payment to tlie merchaut:,, caused the payment of their notes before dne as stated the notes having been given to fall dne at the nsuaftime of their collections.’ From siioli a fact as this we may draw the conclusion, that the great bhik of the crop has been sent for ward and sold, the decline no doubt causing many to sell, as it did the writer of this article fearing it would go still lower. The country ■is now beginning to see the cause of the large receipts, and the certainty of a speedy decrease in the receipts from the present time. I have no doubt that the late cold weather will to some extent canse a greater deficiency in tiie receipts than is looked for, and at an earlier date. But the great bulk of the crop was delivered, or hauled to the landings and railroads before the cold snow. In proof of this, I saw a large Jlississippi planter, who told me had sent for ward his crop and sold it, when usually at the same period in former years, he had ju.it com menced sending it off. This planter had come to Georgia with his money, t!ie proceeds of the sale of his crop to buy more negroes, to make more cotton for next year. One other fact is., the large number of negroes which have passed througli Augusta, and over the various railroads, many of them purchased by planters of the South-West, showing they had sold tlieir cotton, and received the money for it, and laid it ont in negroes.

It says: There are at this time four of these clubs, having for their special object the subjugation of tlie prowling rascals who waylay honest peo ple on their way to their homes in the evening. The names of these four clubs are the “Mes- *Ies,” the “Raritans,” the “Amigo,” and the “Curlews.” The oldert is the “Amigo Club.” It is also the largest, comprising about five hundred members.—Its regular meetings are held in east Broadway. The majority of its members ere respectable working mechanics, and to use a plirase well known to the pugilist, they “trave on their muscle,” caring but little for the aid of bowie knife or revolver. 'The cry of “Amigo!” “Amigo!” in the proiinncia- tioii peculiar to the Amigos, at any time secur es the necessary aid in disposing of the ruffians who, liaving all the boldness to rob, are desti tute of the courage to work for uii honest live lihood. I Next ill importance are the “Raritans.” ■ This club is described ns being in vigorous operation and ready for any emergency. It numbers about sixty members, who' are mostly dry goods clerks. Some of them are “rough and ready” young men, and fear nothing in tlic gave bail before Circuit Court Coinniissioner Brown for their appearance at the Police Court yesterday afternoon, to answer to the charge of attempting to procure abortion. Oa Siindny afternoon, officer Eglinton pro ceeded to the residence of the grandfatlmr, Daniels, who had just returned from church, and was proposing to attend again in the cven- ! ing The officer informed him that his pres ence wa.s required here by the doctor. Sus pecting nothing, he came willingly, and was somewhat surprised, on his awival, to find him self a prisoner, arrested for so horrid a crime. Yesterday morning, he was arraigned upon two complaints—one for incest, and one for attempting to procure abortion. The first, he readily plead not guilty. To the second, he at first refused to plead, stating that he wished to advise with counsel before doing so, tliat be I might be informed as to his rights, and intima- I ting that he might even wish to withdraw liis filea to the first complaint. He subsequently, hofrever, plead not guilty to the last conqjlaint, His bail was fixed by Justice Bagg at $0,000 which be has not yet given. His examination is set down for Tiiursday, the 5th of February. Dr Alarsdcn and Airs Baker ajipcared at the Police Court in the afternoon, in accordance I’erhaps, in his over anxiety to produce the impre.ssion tliat the murderer left the house he mav have purposely stained the stairway and door case with the blood of tlie victim.—A’cir y~orh Herald. shape of humanity. They are always well arm-. conditions of their bail, and both plead ed. They have 1.0 rules .specifying what wca- : pons shall be used, leaving that to the discre-| fi^ed at $1,200 each. The did tion of each member as the case may demand. | They meet monthly, and profess to be a cret organization. The “Curlews” are limited in their numbers, and do not e.xceed seventy five, all young men, who, at the time of admis.sion, were under six teen years of age. The greater number of them are clerks and salesmen in large whole.sale stores; not a few are young men who have experienced life in Cal ifornia, Texas and other places of lighting in terest. After dark, the “Curlews” are ready for ac tion. The signal for aid is significant, and ef fective in summoning help, when needed. The club is divided into .sections, and is, according to description, a complete organization. It is sup|K>sed to have some connection with the Broadway and Fifth Avenne Club Houses. Several of the members are frequenters of the Ltiiion Club. The “Alezzel” Club is a powerful organiza tion, and is constituted of west-enders. The Memphis Bnlletin states that the train of ears on tlie Memphis and Charleston Rail road on the night of the 26th, when a little beyond the Mississippi Junction, thundered through a flock of wild turkeys, killing two fine ones! One of them struck the head light, smashing the glass putting out the light, and getting completely “bagged” in the lamp from wlience be was taken by the engineer in charge of the locomotive. It its yet an undecided question, which was most taken by surprise tlie engineer, in having bis light so put out, “all of a sudden,” or the turkey in finding his flight thus suddenly cut short. It is clear, however that the engineer got the best of the bargain. not. As we before stated, the girl is seventeen years of age, and possessed of considerable beauty. Her sufferings have made her pale, whieli, together with her evident agitation in the court-room, added to the great syinpatliy naturally felt in her behalf. Daniels is rcpre_ seuted as a very wealthy farmer and as a church, member. Dr Marsden—whose real name we have reason to believe is H. G. Miller—has been engaged in the “secret disease” business Of Mrs Baker we know notliiiig, but nnder- stand that she lived in the city some time. It may be proper to add that the family with whom the girl boarded on her arrival liere, had no knowledge of any of the guilty conduct stated. The friends of the girl in this city are deter mined to prosecute the matter thoroughly, and liave engaged the services of AlrjTcrry to assist in the prosecution. The parents of the unfortunate girl are not yet aware of the facts. God strengthen the poor mother’s heart to bear the sorrow ^that must be hers'when she learns that her own father has mined her idolized danghter! We are told that her parting injnnetious to the old man were, “Father, be careful with my daugh ter; watch over lier, for she is young and inex perienced, and is going to a large city where there are many temptations.” How cruelly has he disregarded his daughter’s injunctions. If the facts we have stated are true—and they are mainly taken from the statement sworn by the girl—the community will adjudge that any penalty fixed by * the statutes is too light to punish the guilty parties.—Boston Cou rier, Ax Aged L.idy A^!CT!5fi7,ED nr the Coni'i- DEXCE G.ime.—The fact of an aged lady, very well dressed and of respectable appearance, liaving been found wandering in the streets of AViiliamsbulg, N.

About a week since she started on a yisit to a brothir in-law in Aliddletown, Ct., with two trunks, and after paying the passage having $200 in money. At Pittsburg she stopped at a hotel over uiglit, and was there advised by a female to travel in company with a gentleman who pretended that ho was coming on to New York. Mrs Alalby accordingly gave her trunks in the stranger’s charge, and also handed him the $200 for safe keeping, and to pay her expenses out of it. At the first station the stranger left the ears, and also took with him the trunks.

A Washington correspondent of the Mont* gamery, (Ala.) Advertiser and State Gazette, describes a truly touching scene that occurred over the dead body of tbe lamented Brooks. Indescribably painful must lias'e been the death of one so loved to the venerable Judge Butler. No wonder that be wept like a child, for within the W'ide range and circle of Mr Brooks’ aequaintences none “knew him bat to love him, none named him but to prai.se.” No one having even the common sensibilitici ofotlr nature, can read what follows unmoved; About ten minites after bis death, the ven* erable old Senator, whose locks are now white with the frost of age, came into the room, and upon seeing him cold in the embrace of death, threw himself upon bis bosom and wept as if bis heart would burst from its Judg* Butler had lavished the ntteiitioii and affect, of many years upon Mr Brooks, and he seemed to be the important object of bis solicitude and existence, and while the death-sweat still stood npon the brow of the immortal sleeper, the old man called to the fleeing spirit in tones of sor row, that moved the pitying hearts of those who stood around to tears—“My boy, my boy, my boy!” olid such a scene of mourning and sorrow, as was witnessed there cannot be com* preliended, mnch less repeated here.” Wise men say notliing in dangerous times.

Love Tokens.—The ancient English enstom of giving love tokens on the twentieth of Aug ust, was a very wise and far-seeing plan for settling yonng ladies in life, and would, if re vived, enable a mamma with a large family of girls to get rid of them as quick as pineapples at a penny a slice. It was the custom in Eng land,« long time ago, for “enamored maydes and gentil women” to give to their favorite .swains, as tokens of their love, little liandker- cbeifs, about three or four inches square, wrought round about, often in embroidery with a button or tassel at each corner, and a small one in the centre. The finest of the favors were edged with narrow gold lace or twist; and then, being folded up in four cross folds, so that the middle might be seen, they were worn by the accepted lovers in their hats or on tlieir breast. These favors became,' at last so much in vogue, that they were sold ready made in tlie shops, in Queen Elizabeth’s time from sixpence to sixteen pence a piece. It is common to men to err; bnt it is only a fool that perseveres in his error; a wise mac therefore alters his opinion; a fool neyer. the military will open ranks, face inwards and present arms, and the carriage containing the President and President elect will pass through the place where the Senate committee will re ceive him.

Neilsville, Sept 25, 1856. yl-nl-Sm* Real Estate Sale at New York.—The premises Nos. 39, 41 and 43 Chambers, st., where Burton had a theatre, but at present occupied by Mrs McMahon, was sold by auc tion at the Merchants Exchange Friday. One lot brought $66,000, another $60,000, and the other $62,000. Jas. E. Drummond was the purchaser. It is said that Burton refused $250,000 for this property a few months ago. Burton’s property in New York appears to be sadly on the wane. His new theatre in Broadway is'a losing specnlal'ien, and be and his company are now playing to a beggarly array of empty benches.” • I lO. I * .Crtaafiwc !■ Bhyme. BY TBE OLD HAN. A lady with a.Criiioline, was walking down the street—her feathers fluttered in the air— lier hoops stuck out a feet. She walked tbe earth as if she felt of it she was no part, and proudly did she step along, for pr'ide was in her heart. She did not see a curly dog which wal ked close by her side, all save the bnshy tail of wbieb her GriaoUae did bide. His tail the dog with pleasure shook—it flMtercd io the wind, and from tbe lady's Crinoline stuck out a foot behind. A crowd tbe tail soon did espy, as it waved to and fro, aod like a rudder seemed to point which way the maid should go. Tbe curly dog right pleased was be such quarters he bad got, and walked beside the lady in a kind of doggish trot. Each step tbe lady now did take, served to increase her train, while those wbo followed in her wake roared out with might and main. Smoc held their sides and laughed so hard, tod many /airly' cried, and many even still confess that day they’d “like to died.” Bot still the lady sailed along, in Crinoline and pride, nnmiudfnl of the crowd behind, or dog close by her side. Bnt soon another dog espied the tail which flattered free —it so provoked bis doggish ire be could not let it be—but with a deep ferocious growl, for battle straight he went, and ’neath tbe lady’s Crinoline botli dogs were quickly pent. They foogfat ’tis said one hoar or more—the lady uothii^ knew—bnt with her bead erect sailed on, and did her way porsue. Some say she never would have known at all about tbe fight, had not one dog'inistook and gave her "limb’' an awful bite. B*t since that day I’ve hetrd it said, that lai^ ne'er was seen npon the street with BO much pride—and sueh a Crinoline. 'I / / \ : F.WKj Satiti'ilHy J !k. ..
