Capt. Ilumber, jieuts. Cabell and

lkf4 that post on Wednesday morning,
and bring the gratifying intelligence of
the safety of.Capt. Marey. We learn
fromJ these gentlemen that a man ar
rived at Fort Gibson fron Fort Ar
buckle, just before they started for
this city, having If& that post on
the 29th of July, and reports that
Capt. Marcy and his commniatid had
all arrived, in gr o.1 health a n I
spirits at Fort Arbuetl:, two days he.
fore he left, and that Capt. Marcy was
to have started tfr Fort Siith in
a day or an soon as he could make ar

lie questioned his informant very close

We are gratified that we are at least
able to announce, after so many con

Tir. Caops.-4.Thu- editor of the ti
Tem plar's Companion oT Wiftu ti
oe-u ty, (Ala.) has been travellirg g
over Miarengu and Wilcox counties, d
and says the crops both of cotton and l
torn " look x-..edingly fine. The .
present corn crop will be equal. to U
the yield of any p: v:ous year, and
more til an sufficient for, home con
sumption. It is said a planter recent- "1
ly oflered to sell his crop in. the
field at twenty five cents a bushel. a
The cotton crop the editor thinks will :I
be as large-as that of ally previous t
year, notwithstanding -the rumors in b
relation to the boll worm. .
Nsw CoTT x.-The first bales of
cotton of this year's growth, lanced in
this city yesterday. One bale, : cOn
signed to 'Messrs. Rives, Battle .&
Co., classed middling fair, was sold
yesterday for 13 cents per pound. The
other two bales were consigned to
Messrs. Leavens, Malone & Co., and
packed on the premises of Joshua
liobins, of Wilcox county. This was -
also clasi-ed middling fair. Althonglt i
the crop is backward, it is- esteemed t
generally promising throughout. th

Abolit on Mornaisation- t
The Aboli iona Convention Jately as-t
sembled at Pittsburg, adjourned after a
session of two days. Tfhe onvention
nominated John P. H~ale, of New
H-ampljshire, as-their candidate for the
Presidency, and Charles P. Julien of
indiana, for the Vice Presidency.
These nominations cannot fail to v
weaken Gen. Scott's chanes fr suc- 1
ce'ss in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New
Yotrk, where the votes of the freesoilers
were mnainaly relied on, for giving him
thle votes of these Statecs in the electo
ral college..
On the other hand, the Democratic
candidateLs cbances of success, wvill be
much increased by this split between
the Ihale andl Greely meni. All the
democrats in those gre-at States are
now knit togethere in the closest bonds
of union-a uaaion which will corn

This numtber added to the votes of the ~
democratic electoirs in the South and a
\Vest, to saty nothing of the East, wvill d
cause victory to p~erch on our stand
