Tortui^s that Need Not be Endured.
People suffer a great deal of pain unnecessary. Ar.ionp
tortures that need not be endured are those afflicted by the
Rheuir. itlsm and gcrat, since the acrid clement of the blood
which produces them by contact with the sensitive covering
of the muscles, and joints may be eliminated by the use ot
that matchless depurent. Hostettor’s Stomach Bitters, be
fore the inflammatory symptoms are developed to any great
exteut. When it is considered what excruciating torture*
Rheumatism iuflicts, »nd what a tendency it has, when ful
ly developed, to attack the heart, the advisability of an ear
ly use of such a reliable antidote becomes at once apparent.
The rheumatic virus is expelled from the blood by the in
creased action of the kidneys—which net cs strainers—pro
duced by the Bitters, and the sufferer will ff"d, if lie uses
this supreme defensive agent, that he will b« protected
against a return of the agonizing complaint. Dyspepsia,
fever ana ague, liver and bowel complaints and other mal
adies, are also cured by this admirable remedy.
Agrcnt at Jeffersou.
Mr. A. H. Brock is the authorized agent
for the Southern Watchman at Jefferson,
Jackson county.
Agent at Lawrenceville.
We have secured the services of Mr. W.
H. Harvey, post master at Lawrenceville,
as agent for the Southern Watchman iu

A pair of burses attached to a pine Ion,
which had been left standing in front oi
the Methodist church, Sunday night, took
fright and ran down the street, taming
the vehicle o ver, and damaging it to some
extent. Fortunately, nobody was hurt.
Qaiet.
We have never seen such a quiet and
orderly time in our city as at present.
The police have been out of employment
for several days, and there has not bee n
the slightest attack of drunkenness to be
seen within the corporate limits of our city
during the past week.
Mr. A. H. Lane,
Formerly of this city, hut now of Savan
nah, where he is connected with the Cen
tral Bailroad, returned home on Friday,
on a short leave of absence, and was glad
ly greeted by all his old friends. Mr. L. is
an energetic, honest, reliable, clevergentle-
man, and always gives entire satisfaction
to his employers. The Central Road au
thorities no doubt fully appreciate the
faithful services of such men as Mr. L.
We wish him a pleasant time during his
rustication.
Elegant Cider.
The editors and printers of the WateJt-
man return thanks to Mr. 0. C. Harbin,
the courteous and clever superintendent of
Capt. B. H.* Lumpkin’s “Turf Exchange,”
for a pitcher of sweet, sparkling, elegant
cider, which, after having been disposed
>f, was unanimously voted to be “ A, No
1.” The “ Turf” is also well supplied with
the best lager beer and other “ drinkables.’
Recovered.
We are pleased to state that our young
friend, D. J. Rhodes, who has been “laid
up” for some days with measles, has re
covered and is again able to attend to bus
iness.
Alnaoat a Froat.
Last Saturday this section was visited
by a heavy fall of rain, which lasted all
lay. During the night the clouds cleared
away, and all day Sunday the wind blew
(juito hard from the Northwest. As a con
sequence, the weather was quite cool on
Monday morning, and we think we just
barely escaped a frost.
Death.
Mrs. Bradshaw, daughter ot Mr. B. 0. W.
Ilose, of the police force, died on Monday,
ot a complication ot diseases.
OfT lo AugiiKin.
As usual, a large number of our citizens
have gone to Augusta, to attend the annual
convention of the stockholders of the Geor
gia Railroad.
Agentat Lexington.
Capt. J. G. Hartsfield is the authorized
agent of the Southern Watchman at Lex
ington, Oglethorpe county, Ga.
Au Incontrovertible Fact.
There is no assertion whieh can be made
that is as strong aud convincing as actual
experiment. This is true of Barbershops
as well as everything else. Now, Reid &
Harris claim to have the best Barbering
and Hair-Dressing establishment iu the
city, and in order to place the matter be
yond controversy, they ask the public to
call at their shop and test the matter by
actual-experiment.
Waiver Notes.
We have two or three different forms of
notes waiving homestead exemption, relief
aud all other laws to prevent the collection
of debts, printed in elegant style, on good
paper, which can be had in any quantity to
suitpurchasers. We also keep deeds, bonds,
mortgages, and all other blanks in general
use.
Agate Iren-Ware.”
We have examined a new material call
ed “ agate iron-ware,” which Maj. J. C.
Wilkins uow has on hand and for sale.
He has all kinds of vessels adapted to fam
ily use, such as rice boilers, milk and
sauce pans, Ac. It is claimed that this
ware is entirely impervious to heat or
vegetable acids, and ft is sold at reasona
ble rates. It is certainly very handsome
ware, and we advise house-keepers to call
and examine it for themselves.
Xliiarral Wealth*
While in Babuu county last week, we
were shown many rich and beautilul speci
mens of gold, silver, <tc. We are satisfied
that Rabun, like almost all the counties of
Northeast Georgia, is rich in all the val
uable minerals, and the completion of the
Railroad through to Knoxville, would sooo
develope the finest mining and manufac
taring country in the South. Let the good
work be commenced at ouedj and we be
lieve the people along the line, though
poor, will “ lend a helping hand” in com
pleting this great enterprise.
One of the Attractions
fn the city during the past week, was a
man with an “educated” bear, which
he had taught to dance, wrestle with him,
Ac. He gave free “ shows,” after which he
took up collections—with what success
we do not know. Our opinion is that he
would do better to go to work during the
crop season, and probably in tbe Fall peo.
pie will have money to contribute to tbe
support of himself aud “ bar.”
Accident to 0m. Weir Boyd.
We regret to learn that this distinguish
ed citizen of Lumpkin, while on bis way to
White Court last week, when in about two
miles of Cleveland, was thrown from his
buggy, and bruised considerably, though
iioMaugeruusly Injured.* "
The Col. returned to his home, uot be-
iug abie to attend the Court. We trust,
however, he will soou bo able to resume
bis professional duties.
Mr. J. I. Palmer,
The “ live” auctioneer, who has been in our
city tor two or three months, and who
mode hosts of friends here by his gentle-
rnauly deportment and clever, courteous
manner, returned to Augusta a week or so
since, whei e he will remain duriug the Sum
mer ; but we are pleased to state that it is
his intention to return in the Fall and make
Athens his permanent home.

The Antecedents of Disease.
Among the antecedent:* of disease are inertness iu the cir*
dilution of the blood, an unnaturally attenuated condition of
the uhysiqoe. Indicating that the life current is deficient in
nnfntive properties, a wan, haggard look, inability to digest
the food, loss of appetite, sleep and strength, and a sensa
tion of unnatural languor. All these may l»e regarded »*
among the indicia of approaching disease, which will even
tually attack the system aud overwhelm it. if it is not built
up and fortified in advance. Invigorate, then, without loss
ot time, making choice of the greatest vitalizing agent extant
Hostetler’s Stomach Bitters, an elixir which h:u* given hca’**
and vigot to myriads of the sick and debilitated, which
avouched by physicians and analysts to be pure as well
effective, which is immensely popular in this country, and
•xtensively used abroad, and which has been for years past
me of the leading medicinal staples of America.

SMITH’S WORM OIL.
Athens, Ga., Dec. 8,1877
A few nights since, I gave my son one
dose of the Worm Oil, and the next day
he passed 16 large worms. At the same
time I gave one dose to my little girl, four
years, aud she passed 86 worms, from 4
to 15 inches long. W. F. Phillips.
The Worm Oil can be had at the New
Drug Store. Decll—4t.

a most desirable stock of fancy aud family
groceries, confectioneries, provisions, ker
osene oil, lamp goods, Ac, which he sells
at the most reasonable prices. The

establishment, where he will be pleased to

A Card.
Messrs. Editors :—Permit me, through
the colums of your valuable paper, to ex
press my thanks to each and every oue
who so kindly assisted me at my “ Benefit
Concert,” and pre-eminently the ladies, as
to their assistance the success of the Con
cert was largely due. I shall always cher
ish a kindly feeling for the “ Burns Silver
Cornet Band,” and trust I duly appreciate
the generous motives that prompted them
to tender me tho compliment of a benefit.
I am justly proud of the rank tho Band oc
cupies iu the musical world.
To the many patrons who contributed
to the success of the undertaking, I will
always, in the future, endeavor to merit
the patronage so liberally accorded iu the
past. I ha7e the honor to remain,
Alfred J. Wurm.
E^The more you look at it, says the
St. Louis Republican, tho more certain it
is that Tildeu will never get into the White
House through any revengeful machina
tions of tbe anti-Hayes Republicans. They
don’t want to disturb Wheeler, aud will
assuredly do nothiug to oust Hayes which
must also oust Wheeler, while there is no
Democrat in the lan([ who will do any
thing to oustHayes wbIch does not ( oust
Wheeler. That is tire long and short of it
So if these discontented Republicans think
they can delude the Democrats into ma
king Wheeler President, they expect more
stupidity than the most afflicted Democrat
can be charged with.
The Tariff Bill.—A Washington letter
says: “ It is understood that there is a
disposition among the friends of the Wood
taritt bill to let it go over till the next ses
sion in preference to pressing a final vote
upon it now and running the risk of defeat.
But the protection element will not ho satis
fied with this, as they s iy it would be very
lisastrous to business to have tho uncer
tainty as to l he tariff protracted until next
winter. If tho bill is to pass they say
they would sooner it should pass now,
and for that reason the effect of those op
posed to the measure will be to force a de-
sive vote upon it before the close of this
session.' This deslreds no doubt prompt
ed by the knowledge that a pretty thorough
canvass of the House demonstrates that a
majority are opposed to the bill

it Merrell’s Hepatiue for tbe Liver. The
enormous expense of importing the ingre-
lients of this great liver medicine into this
country is why our Druggist, Dr. C. W.
Long & Co, sells but one sample bottle to
tbe same person for ten cents; but as there
are fifty doses in a large size bottle, it is
cheap enough attar all at two cents per
dose, fur a medicine that has never been
known to fail iu the cure of dyspepsia and
il diseases of the liver. It has never failed
in the cure of liver complaint when taken
as directed, no matter of how long stand
