i The Court ot Macon was occupied, yea
iterday morning, in the trial of .7. H. Curtin,
[Wui. Hutchings, John Murphy and C.
Stewart, arrested and indicted for assaulting
Iwo negroes on the public highway. The

Klorc Light.
Our city fathers are watchful guardians
of the public welfare, and keep things
about right: therefore, we know, when
reminded of the matter, they will see that
those sections of our city now left to pitch
darkness will he supplied with lamps and
gas, for the benefit of the residents of those
quarters. We allude particularly to
Greene street, between Elbert and Lin
coln. 1 here are others in other localities,
and we hope those interested will make the
fact known at the proper quarter.
Richmond Superior C ourt.
In this Court, yesterday, the Jury made a
mistrial in the appeal case of Roswell King
m. Georgia Railroad and Banking Company.
But two other cases were tried, to wit: F.
W. Eddleman ex. Georgia Railroad and
Banking Company, and Jane S. Harris vs.
the same. Both of them for and on account
of deposits made in the Bank, during the
war, in Confederate notes, and both ot them
gamed by the plaintiffs against defendants
—verdicts rendered according to gold value
ol the notes at the time of deposit. The
Court is in session again to day, and will
Probably consume the most of the week, as
there is much litigation involved in the cases
to he tried.
Another Picture
On yesterday, in the window of Oates,
the bookseller, we observed another
achievement in the fine arts by our fellow
citizen Dr. Kingsmorc, the artist of Perkins
i Pelot’s Gallery. The picture, enlarged
from a photograph, represents the features
'f a young child. The features are per
lection, the drapery natural, and the whole
lne-like. The laughing face and sparkling
e J e Rule “Allie"’ lead one to listen for
the merry chirrup of the little birdie, as
she trundles along witli thoughts which she
can not yet form into speech, but no doubt
understood by herself and the angel
?sard, who, unseen, w.itches her wayward
step*. It is a good likeness, and well
eiecutcif Call and sec it, and remember
that Dr. Kingsmorc can paint any number
desired in a style not to bo surpassed.

Dislrc«-.inc>
Mr. Daniel Cnraker, of Milledgeville, lost
a daughter on Saturday night under rather
painf'ii circumstances. II is dr lighter Amelia,
about ten years old, with several other
children, were out plumb and blackberry
hunting, mid going into the field of Mr.
Brown, route one from mischief or a desire
to Irighteu the children, or to keep" them
from the plumb trees, set the dogs on them.
They became frightened and ran for home,
a distance of a mile; the day being hot and
the sun shining. Amelia reached home,
hut was so much scared, heated, and ex
hausted, that she was unable to speak, and
died in about five hours.
Let her sad death he a warning to all,
never to frighten children, especially when
away from home. Perhaps no harm was
intended, but children never stop to reason
when they see a dog coining towards them,
no matter the size.— Recorder.
Death ok Coi.. E. P. Watkins. —We are
pained to announce the death of this gen
tleman,in Coweta county, on Saturday last,
of a pulmonary disease that long preyed
upon his constitution. In all the relations
id life the course of Col. Watkins was such
as to stamp him a true man and a Christian
gentleman ; and to his memory, in common
with n long list of sorrowing relatives and
friends, we drop a tear.— Constitution, 16 th.
A noth Kit Goon <*lii Man Gone. —John
P. Eve, one of the oldest and best citizens
of this county, died at bis residence near
Eve’s Station, on Friday, the 12th inst. lie
was a man of great industry and energy,
scrupulously precise in all business transac
tions, a practical Christian, and in every
way a good citizen. Wc suppose his age
to be not far from seventy years.— Rome

FINANCIAL.—We have no alterations to
make in the (lohl or Stock market. livery
species of Stocks are steady, holding their own
with considerable stiffness, (or the season of tho
year.
COTTON.— Really wo have little to say about
this article as to price It seems to be water
logged, as no movement worthy of attention is
made by the article. It is in the warehouses,
buyers and sellors do not come togother, and for
various other causes combined nothing is done.
New York noon reports show Cotton at S9{, and
firm—a clear advance of one-half cent. It is
also firmer in Liverpool, and more doing. Sales
of 15,000 bales.
CORN—Continues at its old prices.
REMARKS.—It seems that the attempt to
quote the prices of various articles here i? a
work of supererogation. There is so iittlc trade
going on of any moment that it seems to lie im
possible to get at prices of anything. The dull
season has fully sot in, and fighting mosquitoes
is a good business.

Hospital of the Sisters of Mercy, j
L)k. Rahway: I certify that your Ready
Relief has cured over one hundred of our
sick from chills, vomiting, headaches, in
ternal pains, etc., etc.
One of our Sisters had the rheumatism
in her head for n great many years. Having
taken a few spoonsful of Relief in water,
and rubbing her head twice with the same
medicine, she was perfectly cured, and
never felt it since. I always use it for
dyspepsia and for colds, and always with
success. It is very useful for sore throat,
coughs, influenza, diptheria, etc. It has a
good effect in flatulence or wind colic. 1
use it for foul breath, and it produces a
marvellous effect. In short, it produces
relief altogether remarkable in our invalids
Sister Mary de Bonsecouks.
Sudd' ii colds, coughs, influenza, diptheria,
hoarseness, sure throat, chills, fever and
ague, mercurial pains, scarlet fever, etc., etc.
Take from four to six of Railway’s Fills,
and also take a tenspoouful of the Ready
Relief in a glass of water, sweetened with
sugar or honey ; bathe the throat, head and
chest with Ready Relief (if ague or inter
mittent fever, bathe the spine also); in the
morning you will be cured.

D KAD THE FOLLOWING LETTER FROM
JLLIIey.U. Telford. Missionary in China, now
visiting his home in Pennsylvania:
Washington, Pa„ Jnue2s, I8(i(i.
Messrs. Perry Davis it Son. Providence, A’. 1. ■
Dear Sira—During a residence of some ten
years as a Missionary in Siam and China, I found
your vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable
remedy for llial fearful scourge, the Cholera.
In administering the medieiue, I found it most
effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a
gill of hot wrier sweetened with sugar; then,
after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a table
spoonful ot the same mixture every minute until
relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to
the extremities. Bathe the stomach with Pain
Killer, clear and rul> tile limbs briskly. Ot those
who had the cholera, and took the medicine faith
fully in the way stated above, eight out of ten
recovered. Yonrs, truly.
R TELFORD.
If an attack with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
Cramp Colic, don’t delay the use of the Pain
Killer Kohl by all medicine dealers. Price, 25
cents, 50 cents, and $1 per bottie.
Manhattan, Kansas, April 17, 18(iti.
Gentlemen— * * * I want to say a little
more about the Pain Killer. I consider it a very
valuable medicine, and always keen it on hand.
I have travelled a good deal since 1 have been iu
Kansas, and never without taking it with me.
In my practice 1 used it freely for the Asiatic,
Cholera, in 181!), and with belter success than anv
other medicine : I also used it here for cholera iu
1555, with tiie same good result.
Truly, yours, A. HUNTING, M. I).
Swatu, China.
Cholera . * * ->■ I regret to say that the
cholera has prevailed here of late to a fearfu
extent. For the last three weeks, from ten to
fifty or sixty fatal cases each day has been re
ported. 1 should add that the Pain Killer, sent
recently from the Mission House, has been used
with considerable success daring tills epidemic
If taken in season is generally effectual in check
ing the disease.

Summer Complaint and Dysentery.
Bowel complaints seem just now to be the
prevailing clement, and any medicine that is
everywhere acceptable, and that is reliable is a
very desirable acquisition. From what we have
seen, heard, and experienced, we believe Davis'
Pain Killer is this desideratum. For the best
method of using it, we quote from the directions:
“For common bowel complaints, give one tea
spoonful in a gill of new milk and molasses, iu
equal parts, stirred well together; lessen the dose
tor children, according to the age. If the pain he
severe, bathe the bowels and back with tiie medi
mode of treatment is good in cases of
the cholera morbus, sudden stoppages, etc. Re
peat the dose every honr.
"The quickest way I ever saw the dysentery
cured was by taking one spoonful of the Pain
Killer m one gill ot milk and molasses stirred
\\ ell together and drank hot, at the same time
batlmu; the bowels freely with medicine* Let
the dose be repeated every honr until the patient
is relieved/’
It every person who has reason to fear this
disease would provide themselves with a bottle
ot this medicine, and use as occasiou required, we
believe a great amount of suffering and sickness
would be saved. j e L2 i>ni
