The Phillips-Waddell Affair. TBE PARTIES INTERESTED OFF TO ALABAMA —» WHAT WILL THE ISSUE BE? Considerable interest was manifested yesterday in regard to the rcrival of the Phillips-Waddell affair of honor. It will be remembered that Coi. Waddell, of Alabama, wrote a very offensive arti cle in an Alabama paper concerning Col. Phillips, the uncle of Mr. T. J. Pbillipa of lhia city. Mr. T. J. Phillips demanded a retraction of the article. This Col. Waddell refused. THE PACTIES CONCERNED, WITH SECONDS AND SURGEONS, MKT AT Neill’s Landing, in Florida, for the purpose of settling the matter. Without any explanation at all to the public, the affair was adjonrned and the gentlemen re turned to their liomrs. Mr. Phillips, accompanied by Col. Lay ar.J Mr. Sbocut, left day before yesterday for Columbus, it wa j raid, for the purpose of effecting a FINAL SETTLEMENT OF THE MATTER. This movement elicited inquiry on the part of the Herald reporter, and the following statements are compressed ont of a thousand rumors floating about the streets: It is said that when Ms. Phillip?, through his friend, made a demand for a retraction upon Col. Waddell, that gentleman, through bis friend, demanded the right to take double the time in answering Mr. Phil lips' note that bad elapsed between the publishing of the article, and the notice taken of it by Mr. Phillips. Mr. Phillips replied that the article was published in an obscure paper, and he did not see it until just l.efo.e he made the demand. It is said, however, that the CODE BORE OUT COL. WADDELL in this privilege, aud the affair was adjourned until the expiration.of the privileged time, which extended into early September. It is said that in the interim Mr. Phillips has been quietly laying on his arms, and awaiting the result of Col. Waddell’s meditations. What conclusion he has arrived at, it is Impossible to know or to guess. It is claimed by all who know him that he is a man of dauntles courage aud one of the beat shots in Alabama. As for Mr. Phillips, he is well known here, and has been in capital bands since the inauguration of this differ, ence. It certainly seems impossible to adjust the matter in any way except by a fight; though what we say is solely based upon rumor. The Columbus Sun baa Ibis to ssy upon the subject: THE REPORTED DUELO. Rumors were again rife yesterday regarding a reported duel to be fought between Atlanta and Russell county, Alabama, parties. They are the same who made the trip to plorida over a month ago. The latest we have heard is that the Atlanta party with seconas and surgeons left on the M. and O. train last siternoon. The others were in the city alter that train left. Some conjecture a fight will take place at Cbat- tauooga or in South Carolina. The parties are reported as reticent. We arrived in the city too late to learn any particulars. LA TICK. TKEEORAM TO THE HERALD. Columbus, September 3, 1873. Phillips and party left on the Mobile and Girard (Alabama) t^iu on Tuesday. Reports as to where they aro gone are various. The Alabama party were in Columbus after dinner to day. All concerned are reticent. D. CUBA LIBRE. POLITICAL. An Anti-Monopolist Fight in San Francisco- The Man Who is to Fight Ben Butler. The New York Democratic Convention. ANTI-MONOPOLY. A Chance for an Anti-Railroad Victory in California—A Tough Fight. San Francisco, September 3, 1873. The political excitement here is very high. At the election to-day the People’s Anti-Railroad Ticket ap peared to be very strong, and the general belief is that it will sweep the field. Tbs fact is the rail road pow er haa obtained possession and control both of the regular Democratic and Republican conven tions, having effectually broken down the party lines and excluded political issues from the canvass. The contest is between P. Crowley, Independent, and T. G. Cockrill, Democrat, for the office of Chief of Police, and has taken a strong sectional complexion, and is very bitter. The Order of United Americans have declared publicly in favor of Cockrill, and many Democrats voted for Crowley. The contest for school directors is characterized by much of the same spirit. Ample preparations were made for the preservation of order at the polls. BEN S VICTIM. The Massachusetts Democrats Select a Vic tim to be beaten by Butler. WORCHE8TEB, Mass., September 3. 1873. The Democratic State Convention met here this morning. On an informal ballot for a candidate for Governor, William Gaston, of Boston, received 303 votes out of 451. Mr. Gaston was then nominated by acclamation. The Convention was quiet and har monious. THE BALANCE OF THE TICKET. WoncHESTEB, September 3,1873. The Democratic Convention completed the State ticket as follows: Lieutenant Governor, William L. Smith, of Springfield; Secretary of State, Benjamin J. Miller, of Williamstown; Treasurer, Nathan Clarke, of Lynn; Auditor, Waldo Coburn, of Dedham. Butler Still Ahead. Boston, September 3, 1873. The count stands Butler, 152; Washburne, 122. Two sets of delegates were elected from some districts, making nine delegates doubtful. THE GRANGERS. A Full Ticket Nominated in Minnesota. Chicago, Sept. 3, 1873. The Minnesota State Farmers’ Convention nomina ted a full State ticket. Their resolutions denounce pres ent political parties as subservient to individual in terests. They favor joint aid for improving Mississip pi and other rivers. Alao favor repeal of certain rail road charters, notwithstanding the pria of vested rights, and tariff for revenue. When the Cabinet Will Meet—Counterfeit Five Hundred Dollar Bills—Indian Affairs. Washington, September 3, 1873. The President, Secretary Richardson and Collector Casey are expected Saturday, when the Cabinet will probably be held. The | Commissioner cf Internal Revenue, Doug- is, has returned. Attorney-General Williams has returned. Another five hundred dollar; counterfeit bill has been received at the sub-treasury in New York, mak ing three in all. All from the West. Secretary Richardson, Uleekman aud Assistant- Secretary Cowan, are in attendance on the President at Long Branch. The Commissioner of Indian Affairs has a letter from Fort Sill dated August tha 31st, which says the Indians there about are peaceable. More Counterfeits Again. The Cashier of the 8ub Treasury fays, although a number of five hundred dollar United States notes have been presented for verification, no counterfeits have been discovered since yesterday. The Diario Newspaper Justifies the Breaking Up of the Republican Meeting. Havana, Sept. 3, 1873. The Diario to-day has an editorial justifying the re cent breaking up of a Republican meeting by the po lice. It says: It is well known that a futile attempt was made at the end of last yoar to create political dissensions among the Spaniards hero. During the present year these attempts have been renewed, aud with some sue. cess, though a majority of the Spanish party, calling it self Conservative, continued to protest against political agitation. This agitation exists because a party haa been formed which thinks proper to promote it. We ought to stop st nothing when It is o v ject to save tho secrecy thus menaced. We should avoid all action likely to excite pasaions or lead to serious conflict. It is our duty to endeavor to conciliate parties, but we must say that it is indispenslble. This political strife which lakes forms of action contrary to the law should be repressed. The tranquillity of the city of Havana aud the whole Island renders it necessary that the law prohibiting meetings of a political character be enforced, for the meetings only serve to produce de plorable conflicts against the citizens of f paaiards can live in peace in Cuba no matter what form of government the nation adopts, hot m order to realize this, it is absolutely necessary to renounce the formation of political and military 'parlies, else disc or I and strife will continue to reign. GERMANY. Captured Forts Named for Dibtihgnialied Generals. Berlin, September 3, 1873. By a decree of the Emperor the names of distin guished Generals of the German army have been be atowed on the foils of Strasbnrg, Metz, and other places in the territory occupied from France. THE PRIZE RING. The Allen McCoole Fight. St. Louis, Sept. 3,1873. The laat deposit of five handled dollars in the Alleu. McCoole prize fight was made last night. The fight takes place on the 23d instant. There ia bat very lit' t’.c betting on the result, although the friends of both parties are sanguine. THE CHOLERA. Progreaa ot the Plague in Illiuoia and Ken lucky. Chicago, September 3, 2373. There were eight chclent deaths last wsek^agaiosi five the previous week. Cincinnati. September 3, 1873. Four fatal caaee at Mlilersburg. and two at Farts yes terday. CABINET GOSSIP. THE WEATHER. Washington, September 3, 1873. Probabilities—For ibe New England States on Thursday winds backing to southwest and southeast, and increasing cloudiness are probable with rain dur ing the afternoon or evening. For the Middle States and lower lake region*, fresh and brisk southeast and sontbwest winds with cloudy weather and rain. For the South Atlantic and Gulf States east of the Missis sippi. gentle and fresh southeast and southwest winds with partly cloudy weather and rain areas; from the Tennessee and Missouri nortbeastwsid over the Ohio and lower Michigan, cloudy weather, rain and fresh to brisk winds gradually veering to the south and west erly. The low barometer over the northwest moves eastward, producing brisk winds over the lake region, and followed by clearing weather in the former dis trict, whence the majority of the afternoon telegraph ic reporta has not as yet been ieceived. THE PERILS OF THE DEEP. The Gale off Halifax—Great Loss of Property and Lives—Twenty French Fishing Vessels go down with all on Board. Halifax, September 3,1873. A letter from Guysboro, says the late gale inflicted its lull measure of damage upon the town and the sur rounding localities. The loss to the inhabitants of Gnysboro, mostly to traders, is ibont twenty thousand dollars. It iB supposed that no less than one hundred barns have been blown down in the settlement around Guys- boro, and the crops which promised a bountiful harvest completely destroyed. The fishermen around the coast have lost their nets and seines and are left with out means to prosecute the fall fishing. A similar story comes from Fourche, where lumber, barns, fishing 9tays, trees, fences, etc., are piled up in immense drift on the road for a distance of a mile so, lrom Fourche to tho Grand Biver. There are only three barns standing, tbe remainder being in ruins. To give an idea of the fury of the hurricane, out of two acres of hard woodland at Fourche, there are only ten trees left standing. The fishing schooner Thclis, of LeHavre, has been wrecked off the north side of Prince Edward’s Island. All the crew, numbering twelve men, wero lost off Cowhead. When the gile was at its higheat, there were twenty sails of French fishermen to be seen, and it is sup posed every vessel went down with all on board, for not tbe slightest vestige of any of them could be seen afterward. When the sea moderated, a brigantine, with seventeen on board, was struck by a sea off the east point of Prince Edward’s Island, and overturned. When she righted, her spars were gone clean out of her, the hull was driven on the rocks, and every soul board perished. .The name cf the vessel could not be ascertained. At the Magdalen Islands the tides rose eight feet higher than was ever known before, and the destruc tion of property on land has been almost as great, if not greater, as the loss at sea. Another violent thunder and rain storm passed rer this city last night, but no damage has been re ported. The schooner Ebro was totally wrecked at Cape Breton. Gloucester, September 3,1873. Two steamers have been sent to Nova Scotia to aid recked vessels. Thirty-sly Gloustcr vessels aro stranded. Six are a total loss. Gloucester lost s'xty thousand dollars and thirty-five lives. Ninety Live3 Lost in India. Bombay, September 3, 1873. Ninety persons were swamped l»y a ferry boat iu tbe Indus, near Karoh. The Storm Across the Ocean. London, September 3, 1873. Steamships arriving yesterday and to-day at British ports from New York report having experienced terri fic hurricanes during the passage. They were tossed about so violently that much of their crockery snd glassware was broken. CRIME. A Counterfeiter Arrested—Cattle Stealing i Texas. Titusville, September 3, 1873. A stranger, who was arrested for passing a new counterfeit five hundred dollar bill, was released three thousand dollars bail, which amount 1)6 de posited. Brownsville,Texas. September 4, 1873. Tbe cattle stealing on tbe border Iras been resumed. After crossing, the csttle were boldly driven along on the highways without interference from the Mexican authorities. The robberies are estimat'd at one thou sand bead monthly. SOUTH AMERICA. Filibusters at Kingston—Ships in Quarantine. Kingston, August 23, 1873. The steamer Virginia is still here, bat is evidently preparing for another trip to Cuba. Tho Atlas, from Mew York, has, it is said, brought her a new captain. The United States steamer Canandaigua still lies here with caeea of Chagree fever on board. Tbe num ber of cases are diminishing daily, and as so >n as she ie recruited she will return to Asplnwall. An Earthquake in Nicaragua. Panama, Sept. 3,18 3. On the 12th of July last, a severe earthquake w felt all over the State of Nicaragua, caused, as it is supposed, by a volcano from Momotoxnbo, which has become very active. End of the War Against the Liberal Govern, ment of Gautemala. Panama, August 24, 1873. Up to the 8th instant news from Guatemala contin ues highly satisfactory. The revolution carried on long by a chief called Noigar, sided by Pollsrez and others, against the liberal governmert of Gautemala, has at last b*en brought to a close by the active and energetic measures of tbe present constitutional Prer ldent. Noigar, Cacblto and other chiefs have all been captured, and will doabtless be shot. EXPOSITIONS. Opening of tho Cincinnati and Loimvillo Expositions. Cincinnati, September 3. Tbe Exposition opened to-day under favorable au pices. The hotels are crowded. Louisville, September 3. Second Grand Industrial Exposition has opened and Is s grand success. THE EXPOSITION. Special Prizes—Visitors Leaving. Vienna, September 3, 1873. It is reported that special prizes will be given to several exhibitors who were accidentally overlooked in the recent distribution. Nearly all the visitors who came to attend the exposition, have taken their de partnre from the city. Vienna is now free from cholera. NEW YORK. New York, September 3, 1873. The examination of Leonard W. Brown, charged with an attempt to negotiate forged railroad bonds, was continued. Brown was committed without bail. An application for tbe release of Leonard Brown* charged with passing forged bonds of tho New York Central Railroad, was refused to-day by Judge Dow ling, who, in committing him for trial without bail, advised Brown to give any information in bis power relating to the perpetrators of these forgeries. The effect of recent forgeries has been to lead such a close scrutiny of the bonds of railroads as to almost stop negotiations for such paper. An officer of the Stock Exchange to day stated that other parties, known to be engaged in the forgeries, are expected to be arrested by to-morrow. He also stated that these bonds have been in circulation since July. Rodman is still In jaiL He says be is surprised that certain of his friends have not yet bailed him out. His bondsmen, and those of city treasurer Sprague, gave their individual notes to tbe Comptrol ler of Brooklyn, to-day, payable on tho first of Janu ary, to secure tbe city against loss. President Grant was to-day visited by S.cretary Richardson and Lieut. Gov. Pinchback, of Louisiana. The latter held a long conference with the President relative to Louisiana, and says the President now fully understands the status of the political situation there. The Peruvian advices confirm the previously re ported immense laud slide which damned up a river. The fears of its breaking away and inundating the city of Lima and its surroundings have been par tially dissipated, the water having risen to the top of tbe dam and flowing Bteadily over it. The contractors of the building walls which fell, killing people, have been fonnd guilty of criminal negligence by the coronor’a jury. They are held iu bails of $2,000 and $5,000. John Evans, a negro highwayman, was sentenced to day to ten years in the State prison. Robert Reid and John Wild, negroes, who robbed and nearly murdered Warner on tbe 4th ot July, near Flatbusb, was sentenced to 29 aud 10 years in the State prison, respectively. Rev. Newnan Hall, Prof. Leath, and Baron Lackcn, Hon. Wm. M. Fliess, Lord Skeimer Sclale, Rev. S. J. Harrison and R. C. Hall arrived to-day from Europe, and John Grant,Governor of Jamaica from Kingston, arrived here to-day. POOR SPAIN. Another Sabine Rape—Capt. Traver’s Trouble. London, September 3, 1873. A special dispatch to the Standard says the Carlists have carried off from Vera a number of loraen who chosen by ballot in the province of Biscay to make uniforms for Nationalist soldiers. The wife of Capt. Travers and commander of British steam yacht Dearhound, at the time of her capturo by the Spanish frigate, has published a card appealing to the public to aid her in her efforts to secure tho re lease of her husband as well as other prisoners. Harmony in the Cabinet. Madrid, September 3, 1873. General Acdelgo has resigned the Captain General ship of Madrid, and General Riguners has been ap pointed bis successor. By this change, harmony bus been restored in the Cabinet. MACON DEPARTMENT H.C. STIVENMN - CITY EDITOt. MACON, GA., WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 3,1873. Our Office.

The Merlna House and several adjoining bnildiugs were burned at Naesau, N. H., yesterday. Tbe old board of the Short Line directors of Louis ville have been re-elected. During the month of August 10,035 emigrants ar rived at Caatlo Garden, a decrease of over 4,000 for the corresponding month Isst from year; the 1st of January to the 31st of August, 20,947; decrease 4,874 for the same period last year. A terrible fire is raging in the western part of East Surry. In a piece of woodland. A largo force is fight ing tbe flames, hot if high winds continue a great numln-r of dwelling houses will be burned, at walls are all dry and hardly any water to be bad. ENGLAND. Imla ilriitl Bureau for Women—Tho Warwick Meeting. London, September 3, 1873. Miss Emily Faithful contemplates establishing an Industrial Bureau here to provide employment for women, in connection with institutions of similar kind iu Near York snd Cbicaga. The Warwick September meeting took piece yester day and to-day. The Warwick Cap was run for to day and was won by Field Marshal; Hippia Filly was second, and Lombard third. In this combat only tbe three hones mentioned ran. Hippia Filly was tbe favorite at the start. Confessed. Jackson, One of the Smithville Murderers Confesses the Horrible Crime—After His Accomplices. (Telegraphed from Albany through the Herald Macon Office.} The Smithville murderers have been transferred to the Albany jail. A Herald reporter interviewed them to-day, in company with Sheriff Bolter, of Lee county. He telegraphs to night to the Macon Bureau that he saw Jackson aud.Martin in the Albany jail to day. Jackson confessed everything appar ently appertaining to the horrible murder of young Johnson at Smithville, but whilst confessing that he was cognizant of the fact, said he had no hand in the murder. He further confessed that a negro, named Monroe, a Savannah desperado, was a ring leader in the mnrder. Sheriff Salter, upon hering this, Immediately star ted to Savannah to arrest Monroe. Jackson made a complete statement of the whole crime in all its aw ful details. Sheriff Salter will arrest Monroe in Sa vannah to-morrow. Chapter of Accidents. Alfred Knight, a youth, whilst practising with dumb bells in tbe Merchants Exchange this afternoon, broke bis right arm. A young girl by the name of Lawrence, an operator in the Macon factory, had her hand caught iu a loom this evening and badly lacerated. The Courts. In the County Court one criminal case was dii-miss ed. Several civil cases were tried, of no public impor tance. Nothing in the Mayor’s Court. Tiic City Bank Building. The new bank building recently completed and turned over to the City Bank is perhaps tbe floeat and most complete in the State of Georgia. In the left hand room on the first floor is located the main office of the Southern and Atlantic Tele graph company. It has a fine clerk's counter, with operaters desk and batteries to the rear. These rooms are admirably adapted for the purpose for which thef are used. Ascending tbe center stairway all the way up, guarded with black walnut railing, we fiud a num ber of large and splendid single rooms intended and occupied for offices. The ground floor of the right division is occupied by the Bank. There are three main rooms and many recesses for the convenience of the officers and clerk* of the institution. The first, or front one, judging from the eye, occupies one half the whole space. Here we find the clerks, the tellers, the book keepers aud tbe cashier, from early morning and until a late hour of the night, busy counting money, recording the flow of cash through the gigantic institution or an swering questions of customers through their little windows over the counter and piercing the wicker work o( wire above. This counter, the desks, as in deed all the other internal wood-work of tha room, Is of solid black walnut, fashioned, carved aud finished by master hands. They must have cost a small fof. tune in themselves, Even In the window blinds v?e find something new. unique and an improvement upon almost anything ot the sort in the city. PRESIDENT NUTTING. Iu the rear room we found President Nutting, with his floor covered with Brussels, his desk, chairs, sofas and lounges upon the same style of magniAeiaoew as in front. We doubt if the drawing rooms of many of our most fashionable belles are furnished with more taste and elegance. THE VAULT. By invitation of tbe president we went into the vault, which is constructed iu the rear center of the main room. It is a cage of iron bars, top, bottom aud sides, placed upon a brick base commencing at the ground, and to make it doubly secure from being bur rowed into, floored with Stone Mountain granite a foot or more in thickness. It appeared to us that it would take the most skilful hand of burglars six months of uninterrupted hard work to get to and through that floor by a ground entrance. Iben, when they got in they would find THE GREAT IBCN SAFE still to conquer before they got udj money. This sits facing the dcor and on the back side. The teller, Mr. Harney Powell, with an easy motion swung back the ponderous iron door, and tbero lay great stacks of greenbacks, bonds and valuables. But look at that lock ! On the inside it was perfectly naked, but upon tho outside thcro was a hole through which air brought from ten miles above the earth could get through. It was manipulated by a combination— susceptible of 30,000 changes -a little silver knob, working in a silver socket, nicely marked off with figures and notches, which, when understood, will ex plain how the milk gets into and out of the coaconut. The safe costs $3,000, and, we .believe, is of Herrings’ patent. The lock had another patentees name upon it. Mr. Nutting is entirely a self-made min, and is tainly one of nature’s noblemen. Commencing life without a dollar, he has indeed hewed his way through the granite woiId without any other assist ance than his own mallet and chisel, directed by his brain and wielded by his arm. He has never touched anything and failed; a man of consummate judgment, of positive force of character, he now handles money by the hundreds of thousands, and as a member of the Georgia Legislature, haa exhibited talents of a high c der indeed. Preferred Whisky to Anything. Herman 8wedenborg, a susceptible youth and clerk in a grocery store, last night wrote a pathetic note to his employer, and after stating how much he loved him, wrote that he wsb tired of the world, and that when he received those few lines he would be a cold corpse. He left the note on the counter, left the store with tho doors wide open, and sallied forth. Hit employer was absent at the time but aoon re turned, and not finding his young man on hand as usual, looked all around the premiees for him. Finally picking up the note he read it with feel ings akin to horror. Ha immediately shut up shop and started out to avert, if possible, the dire calamity. Striking tbe trail he “treed him,” not standing on nothing looking up a rope tied to a tree, however, but in the back room of a bar, DEAD DRUNK. To-day we visited the premisos and found him com fortably snoozing in his little bed, where Improvements. Tho front of another store of Dempsey’s Cherry street block was knocked out yesterday for the pur pose of being supplanted by a building like tbe two above it. already completed and occupied. It is a great pity that the whole of the block cannot be thus remodeled; but the gentleman to whom they belong does not care about making the expenditure at pres eut. So we understand. The roof is now being placed upon the new store of Jones k Baxter, at the corner of Cherry atreet and Cotton avenue. The new Jewish synagogue has not yet been fin ished. Like all other churches—In this respect, at least—it takes time to get up tbe money necessary to complete it. As a class, the membership and the con gregation are wealthy, aud it would seem that the work ought to progress more rapidly. Macon Agency of tlae Arkansas Hot Springs. A prominent drug store clerk of this city has re ceived the appointment of Agent of the Hot Springs in Arkausas. Accompanying his official document promoting him to this elevated position, are photo graphic views of the effect of hot water upou different animals. Tho first picture represents the daddy of a Georgia mule in the midst of the cotton season, and when corn, oats, fodder, hay, bran, grass, shacks, corn-cobs, straw, dried leaves, and everything else can only bo bad at the store for from one dollar and a half a bushel to fifteen dollars per bale cash, wills four per cent, a month rates of interest between the acaloe and the counter, with no discount to punctual custom ore. Tbe second picture, or after drinking hot water la decidedly heroic. Tho two might be deecribed aa a “developer” or carpet bagger, when ho entera Georgia, and a carpet bagger when he is ready to leave Georgia. Beared upon hia hind legs with the bucket of hot water kicked over, fat as au Alaska seal, and fierce as any picture of Andrew Jackson at New Orleans, he stands ready to leave the springe. .RAH persons wishing to “consult” this drug clerk, will not apply at the old woodon store, for his office is between 12 o’olock and Mrs. Mulligans. No Modocs need apply, except on the 4th of July or Fridays. The Washington Tiger Rifles at tire State Fair. A friend of tliia Bureau happened over in Washing ton county laat Saturday, and that being the regular drill day for the the Tiger Rifles, Captain Dan. Tucker, he of course went to see them. At the tap of tbe drum eighty-four men promptly fell into line, and wore put through the evolutions by their brave old Captain. Most of them have smollcd gunpowder in defense of Georgia. Before parade was dismissed tbe Captain made the following graphic speech: “ Men—I want you to go with me to Macon to con tend for the premium. These town men call us the copperas breeches company, and they laugh at ns: but which will be tbe most honor for us—tho copperas breeches company to drill against the town crackers, under their silk banners, and we win the prize end bring it away. Men, stick to me, for, by God, we will win the prize.” At the conclusion of this model speech, all in favor of going were requested to step to tho front, when tho entire company promptly moved forward. We extend the Captain and his company a hearty invitation to come. Ruffle of Houses. Clay’s horses are to be raffled off during tho Fair, together with harness, pbe ton and buggy, for five thousand dollars, ten dollars a chance. A libt is now opened at Brown’s Book store. The Lecture of Rev. K. W. Warren. We don’t know what you think of Rev. E. W. War ren up in Atlanta, but everybody in Macon has the highest regard for him. Iu this love and respect is not confined to one congregation, but pervades every denomination and every cailiDg in life. A lecture on temperance is regarded here as a “dry” subject, and it is so to speak and but few men could get an audience of any great number to hear it. But last night the First Street Methodist Church was crowded to overflowing, up stairs and down, to hear our former favorite pastor. He handled the subject in that simple, straightfor ward, useful manner characteristic of all his sermons. If you ever get tired of Mr. Warren, we want you to send him back to us. The negro Sam M. Essex, chased by tho police yes terday to the swamp and in the chase fired at four or five times, is known in Charleston ao Tern Marshall where he has several court bills unsettled. Personal. Mr.Joseph Waxelbaum is at Weisbaden, Germany, iu very poor health. He left here quite an invalid sever al months ago and writes home that he haB not found tho change for the better. But few of our fashionable people have as yet returned home from summer resorts. The weather here is too hot to enjoy this climate if one can afford to stay away. Nearly every leading dry goods and grocery house in the city has a representative in New York. Mr. J. F. Crutchfield returned home last night from Boston and New England literally looking “as fat as a buck.” Mr. H. Fontaine, of the well known Cincinnati house of Proctor k Gamble, is in the city, a guest of the Brown House. He says the Herald is read iu his city with the greatest delight, especially your poet Moore’s column. Seuator C. C. Kibbce, of Hawkinsville, is at the Brown House. Gus Nussbaum and lady arrived at the Brown House last night from an extended bridal tour North. Bad Roads. We were particularly requested, by a gentleman, yesterday to put in the Herald an account of the ter rible condition of the continuation of the Columbus road this side of the city line, especially where it involves the Tattnall Square Park fence at the south, cast corner, and near the raijroad. The road haa been placed in excellent condition from the city lino to Echeconnee creek, the county line, (thanks to the County Court,) and it is the only portion spoken of,to the bridge over the M. & W. R. R., that is In each a dangerous condition. Only the other day a buggy was thrown into a terrible hole, to be picked up by the disconsolate owner in a hundred pieces. Do, somebody in authority, go out there and take a look at the situation. Hotel Arrivals.

The clear eye, the fresh complexion, the stea dy hand, the firm step, the unclouded brain, briskness of spirits, aud a disposition to look on the bright side of anything are indications that the animal machinery is iu perfect work ing order. Happy are they whose running gear of life is in this excellent condition, and fortunate too are they who know how to briDg it into such a condition if disarranged. All who have experienced or witnessed the effect of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters upou the weak, broken down, desponding victims of dyspep sia, liver complaint, fever and ague, rheuma tism, nervous debility, or premature decay, know that in this supreme tonic and altera tive there exists a Bpecinc principle which reaches the very source of the trouble and effects an absolute and permanent cure. E Pluribus Unum might be aptly inscribed on the label, for the preparation is a plurality of remedies condensed iuto one irresistible anti dote. Singular Discovery of a Lo*.t Will. The will of the late Colonel W. W. Jacobs, of this county, was misplaced after his death in a very mysterious manner, which circum stance laid the foundation for an extensive lawsuit On Thursday, the day of the sale at Colonel Jacobs’ place, a poor Italian boy named Louis Perry, m the employ of Mr. Winn Gunn, unearthed tho important docu ment while employed in removing some old papers from a secretary. Five hundred dol lars would have been freely given for the valuable instrument, which fact he well-knew, but he immediately surrendered the prize to the proper parties. Mr. George W. Darnall, the curator of the estato, properly rewarded him with a prize of $100.—Lexington (Kg.) Press. The Missino Herald Correspondent.—An article appeared in our last issue, says the Shelby (Ky.) Courant, in regard to one C. A. Lord, who, it was expected, had been foully dealt with. Since that time various rumors of a sensational nature in regard to tbe miss ing man have come to our cars, all of which, upon investigation, have proven to be noth ing but idle conjecture. We are, however, in formed by a reliable party that he has been seen tired, dusty and on foot, near Midway, Ky., and making a request that some oue would go to the springs with him. Taking into consideration the man’s action, we can came to no other conclusion than that he is insane. A curious story comes from Pru&ia. Ac cording to old customs the uniform it which Frederick the Great died became the property of his valet, and was preserved in tbe iuherit- or’s family up to a few weeks ago, when, the bead of that family dying, tbe heirs resolved to convert it into money. It was disposed of for 150 thalers to a dealer in old clothes, who soon met with a patriotic admirer of histori cal relics, who invested 500 thalers iu the suit Tbe next purchaser was an Englishman, who ventured tbe comparatively high price of 8,- 000 thalers (£1,200) as a speculation, hoping to realize as much £3,000 by reselling it to a prince of the reigning house iu Prussia who, anxious to .possess himself of the uuiform, but the price alarmed him. The purchaser, it is said, has shipped the interesting gar ments to the United States, where he believes he will obtain even a higher price than that oskod of the great King’s descendant. The London correipondent of the Western Morning News says: There are rumors that splendid mansion which is now being built at Kensington, near Mr. Thackeray’* old bonse, and facing Kensington Gardens, is intended by-and-by to be the palace of tho Duke of Edinburgh and his bride.
