The Meeting on Tuesday.
A huge number of the citize s of the county
being in Marietta on Tuesday, a public meet
ing was called, the proceedings of which will
be found in the Advocate. The expression of
opinion in favor of a reduction of the Legisla
ture by the Convention at its next session was
unanimous. If the objection that lias been
urg d, that the delegates to the Uonventi -n
were not elected for this object, should have
the effect of inducing the Convention to refer
its action upon the question of rediiet'cn ba> k
to the people, without doubt an overwhelming
majority' of the voters of the .State would rat -
fy the act redueuig the number of members.

The Fresliet.
"We have been informed that the Chattahoo
chee river at the Rail road bridge was on Sun
day about eighteen feet above the ordinary
level. The Augusta Republic says that a con
siderable portion of Hamburg was submerged
on Sunday afternoon and night, ai d about one
hundred ami fifty feet of the South Carolina
Railroad, just bc-vond the Hamburg De pot, was
washed away, (not interfereing with the pas
scujcr trains, liowcvt r.)
On Sunday at Augusta many of our church
goir.g merchants wcie hard at work getting
goods out of cellars, etc., while many other
persons were gathering fuel from the immense
quantity of drift-wood which all day long was
floating down the river. The highest point
reached by the water was thirty two feet two
j nehes. .
Rail Road Fares.
The Fare on the Georgia Rail Road is the
Cheapest, and on the Central and W. & A next,
whilst on the Macon Ar Western it is higher
than on any other Railroad in Georgia. The ,
following are the rates on several different
roads :
Atlanta to Augusta 171 miles, 5.50
Atlanta to Chattanooga 138 “ 5.00 •
<. z*’.'’..s Po.-i. u ■ " a..>o .
Atlanta to Macon 102 “ 4.50
Macon to Savannah 191 “ . ..,..6.75
Macon to Albany JOG “ 4.25 ,
By calculating the rate per mile it will be j
seen that per hundred miles the rate charged
is as follows:
Georgia Rail Road 100 milcA, $3,21 I
Central, “ “ “ “ 3,5.3
W. Atlantic “ “ “ .3,62
South Western “ “ “ 4,00 ;
A& W Point “ “ “ 4,02
M&, Western “ “ “ 4,41
The price charged passengers on the Macon
Western Road is 37 percent higher than on
the Georgia Road. The same service that pays
the Georgia Road SIOO,OOO pays to the Macon
& Western Road $137,000. The passenger ;
rates on the Macon <fc Western Road arc about <
ten per cent higher than on the Atlanta &, J
West Point which is a shorter road and the j
South Western R. Road to Albany of about ,
the same length. Why is this ?
From an esteemed friend and distinguished 1
citizen of this State we have received the fol ,

Scrofula, or King’s. Evil,
is a con? ' ituiional disease, a eorroption pf the blood,
by wliicii this liuid becomes and
poor. B i. ;; in the circulation, it pervades the
whole body, and may burst out in disease on any
part, of it. No organ is free from its attacks, nor
is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofu
,. lous taint is variously caused Ly mercurial disease,
low living, disordered or unhealthy food, impure
I air, filth and filthy habits, the depi<;-ssing vices,
and, above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the constitu
tion, descending “from parents to children unto the
j third and fourth generation indeed, it seems to
I be tiic rod of Him who says, “ I will visit the
I ; iniquities of the fathers upon their children.”
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the
lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tuber
cles ; in the glands, swellings: and. on the surface,
eruptions or sores. This foul corruption, which
genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life,
so that scrofulous constitutions not only suffer from
serofulizi-.s complaints, but they have far less power
to withstand the attacks of other diseases; con
sequently, vast numbers perish by disorders which,
although not scrofulous in their nature, are still ren
dered fatal by this taint in the system. Most of
the consumption which decimates the human family
has its crig n directly in this scrofulous contamina
tion ; and many destructive diseases of the liver,
■ kidneys, brain, and, indeed, of all the organs, arise
from or are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous;
tlicir persons arc invad d by this lurking infection,
and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse
it from the system we must renovate the blood
by an alterative medicine, and invigorate it by
healthy food and exercise. Buch a medic? ic we
supply in
AY HIT’S
Coiiipaii’id Extract of Sarsaparilla,
the most effectual remedy which the medical skill
of our times can devise for this every where pre
vailing and fatal malady. It is combined from the
most active remedials that have been discovered for
the expurgation of this foul disorder from the blood,
and the re. cue of the system from its destructive
consequences. Hence it should be employed for
the cure of not only scrofula, but also those other
affections which arise from it, such as Eruptive
and Skin Diseases, St. Anthony's Fire, Rose,
or Erysipelas, Pimples, Pustules, Blotches,
Blains and Boils, Tumors, Tetter and Salt
' | Riiei'm, Scald Head, Ringwop.m, Rheumatism,
Syphilitic and Mercurial Diseases, Dropsy,
Dyspepsia, Debility, and, indeed, all Complaints
arising riioM Vitiated or Impure Blood. The
popular belief in “ impurity of the blood” is founded
in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood.
'Die particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital iluid,
without which sound health is impossible in con
taminated constitutions.
Ayer’s Cathartic Pills,
F6R all the purposes of a fairly physio,
arc so composed that disease within the range of their
I action can rarely withstand or evade them. Their pen
etrating properties search, and cleanse, and invigorate
every portion of the human organism, correcting its
diseased action, and restoring its healthy vitalities. As
a consequence of those properties, the invalid who is
bowed down with pain or physical debility is astonished
to find his health or energy restored Ly a remedy at
once so simple and inviting.
Not only do they cute flic Cvcry-day complaints of
every body, but also many formidable and dangerous
diseases. The agent below mimed is pleased to furnish
gratis tny American Almanac, containing certificates
of their cures and directions for their use in the follow
ing complaints: CosticenCss, Heartburn, Headache,
arising jrom disordered stomach, Nausea, Indigestion,
Vain in and Morbid Inaction of the Bowels, Flatulency,
l.oss of Appetite, Jaundice, and other kindred com
plaints, arising from a low state of the body or obstruc
tion of its functions.
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral,
FOR THE RAPID CURE OF
Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness, Croup,
Bronchitis, Incipient Consumption, and for
the relief of Consumptive Patients in ad
vanced stages of the disease.
So wide is the field of its usefulness and sb numerous
arc the cases of its cures, that almost every section of
country abounds in persons publicly known, who have
been restored from alarming and even desperate dis
eased of the lungs by its use. When once tried, its
superiority over every other medicine of its kind is too
apparent to escape observation, and where its virtues
arc known, the public no longer hesitate what antidote
to employ for the distressing (ind dangerous affections
of the pulmonary organs that are incident to our
climate. While many inferior remedies thrust upon
the community have failed and been discarded, this has
gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits on the
afllietcd they can never forget, and produced cures too
numerous and too remarkable to be forgotten.

HOSTETTteRS
STOMAGHBiT TEES.
The proprietors nml rnandfnctnrers of HOS
TETTER’S CELEBRATED STOMACH BIT
TERS can appeal with perfect, confidence to
pliysiciansand citizens generally of the United
States, because the article has attained a repu
tation heretofore unknown. A few facts upon
this point will speak more powerfully than
volumes of bare assertion or blazoning puffery.
The consumption of Hostetter’s Stomach Bit
ters for the last year amounted to over a half
million bottles, and from its manifest steady
increase in times past, it is evident that during
the coming year the consiimpiion will reach
near one million bottles. This immense amount
could never have been sold but. for the rare
medicinal properties contained in the prepara
tion, ami the sanction of the most prominent
physicians in those sections of the country
where the article is best known, who not only
recommend the Bitters to their patients, but
tile ready nt all times to give testimonials to its
ellicacy in all cases of stomachic derangements
and the diseases resulting therefrom.
This is nota temporary popularity, obtained
by extraordinary efforts in the way of triun
petitig the qualities of the Bitters, bpt a solid
estimation of an invaluable medicine, which is
destined to be ns enduring ns time itself.
Hosteller’s Stomach Bitters have proved
a Godsend to regions where fever and ague
and various other bilious complaints have
counted their victims by hundreds. To be
able to state confidently that the “Bitters”
are a certain cure for ihc Dyspepsia and like
diseases, is to the proprietors a source of tm
tilloyed pleasure. It removes all morbid matter
from the stomach, purifies the blood, and
imparts renewed vitality to the nervous system,
giving it that tone ami energy indispensable
for ilia restoration of health. It operates upon
the stomach, liver, ami other digestive organs,
mildly but powerfully, and soon restores tlient
Io a condition essential to the heallhy discharge
of the functions of nature.
Elderly persons may use the Bitters daily as
per directions on the bottle, and they will find
in it a stimulant peculiarly adapted to comfort
declining years, as it is pleasant (o the palate,
invigorating to the bowels, excellent as a tonic,
and rejuvenating generally. IVc have the evi
dence of thousands of aged men and women
whishavc experienced the benefit of using this
prej-nration while suffering from stomach de
rangements and general debility ; acting under
the advice of physicians, they have abandoned
ti'.l deleterious drugs nml fairly tested the
merits of this article. A few words to the
gentler sex. There are certain periods when
their cares arc so harassing that many ot them
sink under the trial. The relation of mother
ami child is so absorbingly lender, that the
mother, especially if she be young, is apt to
forget her own health in her extreme anxiety
for her infant. Should the period of maternity
arrive during the summer season, the wear of
body ami mind is generally aggravated. Here,
then, is a necessity for a stimulant, to recupe
rate the energies of the system, and enable the
mother to bear up under her exhausting trials
ami responsibilities. Nursing mothers gene
rally prefer the Bitters to all other invigora
tors that receive the endorsement of physi
cians, becaufc it is agreeable to the taste as
Well ns, certain to give it pciiniuicnl increase
of bodily strength.
All those pei sons, to whom we have particu
larly referred above, to wit: sufferers from
i fever nml ague, caused by malaria, diarrhoea,
I dysentery, indigestion, loss of appetite, and
i ail diseases or deratigemelils of the stomach,
> superaur.uated invalids, persons of sedentary
occupation, ami nursing mothers, will consult
their own physical welfare by giving to Hos
tetter’s Celebrated Stomach Bitters n triab
CAUTION.—Me caution the public against
using any of the ninny imitations or counter
feits, but ask for Hostetter’s Ciii.f.i’.uatiiD
Stomach Bitteiis, and see that each bottle has
the words “Dr. J. Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters”
blown on the side of the bottle, and stamped
on the metallic cap covering the cork, and
observe that our autograph signature is uu the
label.
