Ptui Cook, in regard to the mail routes peli- uime'il for by th<^ people of Houston, Macon, Dooly and l’ulaski counties. Gen. t ook says; ••The route from Hawkin-viTft to Hayneville was established in 1S76.

When this hiil. as amended, vyas returned to ti e House, it was defeated and sent back to. 1 he senate. The routes are nowin the bill of this pcsstriu. All petitions for mail louts are referred as matter of right to the postoffice c< mmittee, who, at intervals, report a bill 'containing every routet .asked for to that time. Ni> separate bi Is. pass for eac h and ev ery route asked lor.” “Fron Hawkiugyille to Perry the distance is about twenty one miles, and the people around Hayneville. ate oc- casiont'd much'trouble and inconveni ence in getting tbeir mail. This route would Crist but Tittle. All letters be tween Hawldusville and Perry are now sent via Macon, and Fort Valley, aud several days are consumed iu their transit.” We qtiote the alcove from tlie Hawk- insville Dispatcji, awl we Lope that the; new l'oulq will be. established as soon as possible*, u The 1 one from Perry to Hayuesville and Hawkinville is aii ab solute necessity.

We have very fre-. qnent KXwnpht&tTqThiS effect. What is heeded is for these comma- nit es to make -an earnest and systematic move to seenreothe priviliges to which they are entitled under our postal sys- te‘m. * It is likely tliat Haynesville will soon be pat into communication with Perry and Hawkinsville, and the other places may come in (after a while.

We bear of an attempt made several days since by a negro desperado to murder one of the best of onr citi - zens iu the northeastern part of the county. The gentleman had reproved the negro for swearing around his house and lot, aud the negro waylaid him as he came ont oi the gear bouse door, and assaulted him furiously with a club, liittiug him several terrible blews, stunning bits badly.—The ne gro then ran away. The gentleman had his horse saddled up, and followed with liis breeeli loading shot gun. About a mile from the house lie came iu sight of . the scoundrel and halted him intending, to efl'i>et his arrest, lint he kept moving on. His pursuer then fired two loads of bird shot at him, but with out effect. The negro kept go- iug, aud the gentleman kept poking iu the cartridges and firing bird shot until over a hundred of them had been deposited in his thick hide. He then stopped and surrendered. An .exami nation proved that the negro was com paratively unhurt, in fact not half as badly used tip by the shot as the the gentleman was by the club. 'ike singularly cool iuider the circumstan ces, and carefully avoided using any thiDg but bird shot. The Weekly Telegraph. consent JUiyG. H. White [-.TT.-W.

P AIN in the right side, under the edge of the ribs, increases on pres sure; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the patient ;s rarely able to lie on the left side; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently. extends to the top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stomach is affected with loss of appe tite and sickness; the bowels in gen eral are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sensation in the back part There is generally a considerable loss of mem ory, accompanied jwith a painful sen sation of having left undone some thing which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility; he is easily startled, his feet are cold or burning, and he complains of a priikly sensa tion of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exer cise tvould be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them ex isted, yet examination of the body, after death, has shown the liver to have been extensively deranged. AGUE AND FEVER. Dr. C. McLane’s Liver Pills, in cases of Ague and Fever, when taken with Quinine, are productive of the most happy results. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them & fair trial. For all bilious derangements, and as ‘ a simple purgative, they are unequaled. beware of imitations. The genuine are never sugar coated. Every box has a red wax seal on the lid, with the impression Dr. McLane’s Liver Fills. The'genuine McLane’s Liver Pills Bear the signatures of C. McLane and Fleming Bros, on the wrappers. Insist upon having the genuine Dr. C. McLane’s Liver Pills, prepared by Flem ing Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., the market being full of imitations of the name McIiCinef spelled differently blit same pronunciation. USE THIS BRAND.
