retired from “ TheEdeciic," the present
publisher*, Messrs. Murdoch, Browne &
Hill, took a thorough survey of their
prospects, and finding an excellent sub-
Rcription list at hand, and the magazin..
having gradually by force of original p*-
ipera, changed its character ot an eclectic
to one of independent merit, it was deter
mined to call it the Southern Mofatbu.
and to make it an able exponent of the
interests of the South, and a vehicle
through which could be presented to onr
people the contributions of the best wri
ter* of the South.
The issues oi this Magazine during
1871, abundantly show the faithful aims
of its publishers. In two large volumes
of nearly 800 pages each, beautifully
printed, we have at $4 a year, a collec
tion of the most interesting reading
matter, which will never lose its value.
Several of the articles alone nre worth the
subscription price. We name for instance
the inimitable “ Dukesborough Tales,”
written by “ Philemon Perch,” a native
Georgian—and which, written with the
ketrn satire and quiet witof a Longstreet,
will become a ^standard work of bomor,
and of the delineation of antebellum day9

The whole of the above votes were cast

Fire.—The stable attached to the
premises of Airs. Dorsey was discovered
to be on fire ou yesterday morning about
two o'clock. It contained a large amount
of torage, and the flumes made such rap
id progress that four inulcs in the stable
were burned to death. One of them was
tlic venerable *• Town mule.” The fire is
thought to have been the work of an in
cendiary.
The firemen were out with their en
gines, but could do nothing save to ar
rest the spread ot the flames.
Another Fire.—We learn that
the residence of Mr. J. C. Matthews,
alwut eight miles nbove Athens, was
burned yesterday morning about 4
o’clock.
A large quantity of household fumi
turc, a portion of which belonged to Mrs.
Lewis of Burke county, was destroyed.-
The family saved nothing but the clothes
they had on. We did not leum the ori
gin of the fire, or the extent of the loss ;
but it must be several thousand dollars.
in natural philosophy, chemistry an<_

mention for^ instance, the paper of Gen.
Early, on his memorable advance upon
Washington, in 1864, and the “ Adven-
tures of the .Doctor"- which—we hope to
see continued *• .
Among the list of contributors we
note several names front our State. Prof.
W. LeRov Brown, of the University ot
Georgia, turnished in 1871, n paper on
"ShootingStars and Aerolites, Prof. W. ! feg
H. Waddell of the same University, con- ! £-3a
tributed n paper on “ Homan Sepulchres.” !
We also learn that Col. Sehaller will
during the coming year contribute to
this magazine. Wm. Hand Browne, the
eminent writer and critic, is' the Editor.
_Weare well nware of the indifference

them that but a single copy per month is

gentleman could make a more appropriate
present to his family at Christmas; nor do
we think a young gentleman could select
a more acceptable gilt for any young lady

will receive subscriptions, and attend to

Professor Wilcox.
The Board of Trustees of the Universi
ty of Georgia ir.ct on Tuesday. We
learn that there was not a quorum pres
ent, and they therefore concluded to ap
point a Professor, subject to the action
of the Board in July. _ In accordance with
this conclusion. Prof. Wilcox of Colum
bus was selected to fill the Choir made
vacant by the death ot Prof. Sinead.
We learn that Prof. Wilcox is a man of
large attainments, and well qualified for
the position. He graduated at Yale Col
lege in 1844, alter which he spent a num
ber of years in Europe, studying the lan
guages of different countries iu their best
Universities. These advantages gave
him a very thorough knowledge of the
modern languages, and peculiar qualifi
cations for teaching them with success.—
Prof. Wilcox is, we learn, a native of
Hancock county, in this State. He has
signified his acceptance oi the position,
and the selection is deemed fortunate by
the friends of the University.

Soia’bi.k Pacific, Guano, and
Compound Acid Phosphate.—We direct
especial attention to the advertisements
ot Mr. J. O. Mathcwson, offering these
well known fertilizers at reduced prices.
He lias sold the Soluble Pacific Guano
for six years, with such satisfactory re
suits as to place it in the front rank
standard commercial manures. He guar
antees the quality to be equal to that
heretofore sold. The Compound Acid
Phosphate of Lime lias met with high la
Vor for composting with cotton seed, and
affords a greatly cheapened means of pri
duemg a reliable fertilizer tor cotton. Th
established character of Mr. Mathewson
».s a reputable and successful merchant,
gives additional weight to the claims of
these manures to public confidence.
Dickson Compound.—The c.aims
of this favorite fertilizer arc very strongly
presented in the card in this issue by
Messrs. England & Orr, Agents. They
sold it to about 200 planters last year,
and though it was a most unfavorable
season for concentrated manures, the re
sults were almost universally satisfactory,
and many who purchased as an experi
ment last year, are ordering in large
quantities for the coming season. The
prices have been very materially reduced,
while they offer to take cotton at 15 cents
s pound, next fall, if desired. The qual
ity of this manure is guaranteed equal to
that heretofore offered.
Cigars and Tobacco.—Mr. Hau
ser, sign of the Indian Squaw, oil College
Avenue, has an attractive stock of cigars,
tobacco, fireworks, and fancy goods.
For CniusTMAS.—Dr. Billups of
the firm of Longs & Billups—who is a
connoisseur in pure sperits, has ordered
a few gallons of pure old Jnmaica Rum.
expressly for Christmas. He declares that
a nogg properly compounded with this

disposition to pulmonary disease, or If they take
cold, win be very liable to have Consumption of
the Lungs ln some of Ha forms; and I hold that it
will be Impossible to cure any
without first restoring a good digestion and healthy
aodmUatlon. The very first thing to be done Is to
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucus and slime, which la dogging theae organs so
that they cannot perform their functions, and then
rouse np and restore the liver to a healthy action.
For this purpose the surest and beet remedy is
Scheock-S Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the
stomach and bowels ot an the dead and morbid
slime that la causingdlaeaaa and decoy In tha whole
system. They will clear out the liver of all “
bile that has accumulated there, and rouse It up to
a new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile hi secreted.
The stomach, bowels, and liver are thus
by the use of Schenck's Mandrake Pills; I

manent tone to this Important organ, and create
a good, hearty appetite, and prepare the system
for Ibe first process of a good digestion, ana

After this prepara to er treatment, what remains
to cure moot cases of Consumption Is the ftee
end persevering use of Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup.
The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the system, puri
