The patrons of the Mirror will learn from the card ofthe Editor, that its publi -cation will, ere long, be resumed. In con :nexion with his card we desire to say that :as soon as the paper can he obtained from 'our manufacturer, which will probably he .by the middle of March, the 31irror will !be issued. The only assurance we can :give the patrons. is that the duties devol ved on us as publishers shall be faiihfully -executed, and we flatter ourselves that the .typographical execution will be such as to -render the work accelptible to its numerous friends. It may not be improper for us to add, -that in consenting to become the publisiers of the Mirror, we have prompied more by our desire to have the wnrk sustained in .our city. than any immediate prospect of gain. We appeal therefore to our own ,citizens and to Southern getItlemen gener ally, whether native or adopted sons of our ;genial clime, to hestow on the enterprise -whatever meed of patronage it deserves, :and we hesitate not to assert that itn pro portion as its means are increased, shall its uselulness be extended. As no enterprie, however latlable, cnn -succeed without the approval of the get. %ler sex, we must invoke their kitd con sideration of the Mirror. And we llatter -ourselves, if we are so iriunate as to ren <ier the work an agreeable and interesting Varlour Journal, we shall not took ii vain to tite Ladies for t'ir approbation which will place the Mirror beyond the reach of contingencies. A CARD. To thc Patrons of the Augusta Mirror. The subscriber is happy to inform the pa nrons of the Augusta Mirror that he has af fected an arrangement with Mlessrs. J. W. & W. S.

The Mirror will still re main under his editorial control and will receive, wvhat he has not beetn able to dhe vote to it heretofore, his undivided care and attention, by which he hopes to retnder it more thtan ev'er, deserving2 the encoturage mient and support of the Southern public. The publication of the .iirror~ will lie resumed so soon as a supply of suitable papar can be obtained fromt the North, af ter which time its regular andi promttpt ap pearatnce, and superior typographiral ex ecution, are abnndantly watrranutd by the ability and facilities oft he pubilishiEr<.

After mnrriage. ie ruled those about v1 hitn rather Turkishly. and when his wife P 6did not thitik alike with himselfon mat- s ters and things," he administered some P dozen stripes with a cow skin, which lie t provided fur the purpose. Not satisfied c with this, he made a vendue and sold her personal property, and intended to sell his life estate in her hands, and leave her pen niless, with two children by her former husband.-Philad.

Ex parte explorations have been tmade on eith er !id'e, preparatory to the final settlement of that important question, and I see no - reason to apprehend the result can be otherwise thati favorable to British inter esis, as well as to the contitttance of that good understanding with the neighboring .itates, which is the true interests, and I d am convinced, the sincere desire of both parties coriially to promote. An Henorable Exaniple.-The following r we find in the laysville Eahle. It is re lated of Mr. Craddock, a rmemiher of the t Keitneky Senate from the counties of ti lardin and 31eade: " Sir, said Mr. C. what I havesaid here to-day has been said in a rough way, and & if it has wounded any Senator, I hope he it will attribue it to no unkind feelings, hui a to my want of fle polish of education.

Cotton.-During the past week there c is been a very active demand ftr the sta e, and a considerable amount of business i is been done at an advance, generally, P I a de. per lb. on the prices current the C., ek previous. This activity, together U ith the enhanced prices. are attributable, c doubt, in part to the favorable advices b )n Liverpool, up to the 6th uhimo, re ived in this place. on Friday evening n si, hut the principal cause in the view of of any persons,-is the well kcown fact, that El ir crop will lee but a short one, and hence III e belief, that prices must advance still rther in the foreign market, ere long. pi nr receipts have fallen off very much, to iring the prst week, owing to the Unfa- b irable condition of the roads, and the sup- h y in 1the market is very small. The :es made during the week, have been d -incipally from wagons at 104 a lie., V otigh ione or two small parcels have t anged hands at 114 cents. le 8100 REWARD. , - WILL give Fifty Dollars for proof to r - colivictti of the person or persons (if is hite,) who conveyed inistruments to John " atcher & JOshn t iammond. jr., where ' they effecied their escape floum the Jail d this District, on Friday night ist ; and y dollars for ile delivery of the said t )hn Hatcher to the Jailor of said District.
