cordon County. —The new County Seat for Gordon r , u nty, Georgia, has been located at the Rail Road Depot h therto known as Ootlicologa, and has received the name of Calhoun. On the 17th July the sale of town Lots willtakte p|.ioe. The new site is about half way between Cassville and palton- Another Elxploslon.—An Editor out west speaks of a “bombshell’’ being thrown into the W hig ranks by our neighbor of 3d st. Asa strange coincidence one of the re futed editors of the semi-occasional Journal, of that title, [ passed through Macon, a few days ago, on his way North! [ By the rule of ratiocination, therefore, which said Editor [ once laid down, another explosion of the “Bombshell” may won be expected, and we have been favored by him in ad vance, with a clue to unravel the mystery of its authorship nd publication ! “Stand from under,” ye sinners, of Colum bus, or ye will stand a chance of being blown “ sky high” by the explosion anticipated ! The “signs of the Times” are ■ominously significant! OBOMnanonn fonnty Meetings.- -A correspondent of the last Mil j ‘| 0 j(reville Recorder is out in favor of County Meetings, throughout the State, to let the voice of the people be heard in relation to the doings of the Nashville Convention, the I Compromise Bill, &e. This is a good motion. Let the peo ple in their primary capacity meet together without respect oparty, and deliver their sentiments on the important sub pets now engrossing public attention. If they will do so, we rentnre to assert that nine-tenths of the people of this good ‘.,1,1 commonwealth will be in favor of the Compromise Bill of the Committee of 13. \\ hat say the people of Macon and ‘Bibb County ? Will it not be expedient to instruct our re presentative in Congress as to the wishes of his constitu- I f>nta. in the matter now before Congress ? We think so, and i would be glad to see * movement of the kind suggested gen erally carried ‘Kit. Bt olzebub turned Saint!—“wv ll hear no abuse o f (he country or of religion,” exclaimed the pious Rynders, at ; the New York row; “any man may speak, but the first in- ’ iiult he offers to the church or country, U I'U knock him down , ‘ damn him Well may our “Holy Religion” say, “save me from my ■ friends,” if such notorious fellows as Rynders constitute them- j wives its defenders! Wonder if ouit anonymous friend is not quite as zealous and devout in the practice of that which he has volunteered to shield from “disrespect,” as the bully i captain of New York ! )\ hen he muster.', up moral coumsre enough to reveal himself to our optics, we can better judge of liis qualifications to become our spiritual dictator. Hilledgeville and Gordon Rail Road —We understand from a gentleman residing at the seat of govern ment, that a renewed subscription of stock has been taken in this work, to an to complete the road, and that fli Board of Directors have been requested by the Com jmny to have the road in operation by the Ist of January next. - The Growing Crops. The Wheat crops of upper Georgia are promising. S> are nil other products of that region except Corn, which is back- j ward. Fruit never was finer—the peach and apple trees be- ! ing so heavily laden as to endanger the branches. in central Georgia the Cotton crop is backward. No j blooms yet. Last year the crop bloomed on the Ist June and frost came on the 10th Dec., making a total crop in ail the South of 2,000,000 Bales. A shorter crop may therefore be j anticipated, as the blooming will be a week or two later and the frost will be a month earlier, if the average of the date j of frost for 13 years past is taken as a criterion. It has come j :*s early as the 7th of October, and generally, between the | lath of that month and the Ist of November. Tlie Mississisippian of the 28th May gives statistics of the growing crop in 18 counties of Mississippi, and sums up the I estimate of product at one third of the usual amount. In fiouisana, the high waters have done much damage to \ the cotton crop. The St. Francisville Chronicle of the 2.">th : ult., reports the crops more indifferent than ever known at this season. The same reports reach us from other parts of the ; cotton growing region. In South-Western Georgia, there is j much complaint of the backwardness of the plant. Rcmiutftoifs Bridge —This wonderful structure con tinues to excite the interest and admiration of our community and of strangers visiting our city. Notwithstanding its fragile appearance, it hangs as lirmly as if it would endure forever. We neglected to mention that the deflection in the c . ntre is about ten feet. Mr. Calvin Sayre, of this city, we learn, was the first to show his faith in its strength, and passed over it on horseback, and then drove over with a horse and buggy. That this was a matter which required true nerve may be imagined, when it j is recollected that the bridge was then but ail open platform, j alxmt nine feet in width, without any guards at the sides, and moreover, without the weights which are necessary in these structures to hold them down firmly, and prevent the vibration awl unsteady motion usually so terrifying to horses. The vi- j bration in this case was very groat—the horse, however, j was spirited and courageous, and went on freely. The slight- ! st faltering or swerving from the narrow track would have i given our fearless young friend who held the “ribbands” a hoist ~f some twenty or thirty feet downwards, which he would have found more rapid perhaps than comfortable.— Montgomery Journal. Georgians abroad.—A San Francisco Correspondent of i tlie Rome Southerner under date of 20th April, says : Col. John 11. Watson, from Muscogee county, Ga., lias been elected one of the Circuit Judges ; he had just resigned his seat as a member of the lower House of Representatives. Col. F. 11. Sanford, of Georgia, is also elected one of the Judges. Among many old acquaintances I found here Col. S. R. Bonner, well known in many portions of your State. Rev. Dr. Boring and family have just arrived here in the j steamer Tennessee—all in good health. Alum in Alabama.— The Wetumpka “State Guard” says : It is not generally known that there is a largo Alum mine in ’ oosa county. It is situated in the vicinity of the mouth of Hatchett Creek, and by a little exertion and industry and a small outlay of capital, Alum enough could be got to supply the wants of the world. Baltimore, June 12, 1850. The United States steamer Saranac, arrived at Norfolk on Tuesday morning, having left Havana on the morning of the inst. The Saranac broke part of the the frame sustaining her ma chinery on the day of leaving Havana, and came home using •one wheel only. The Saranac remained two days at Key West. Captain Tatnail, her commander, arrived at Baltimore in the Norfolk steamer, this morning, and proceeded immediate ly to Washington. Capt. Tatnail received assurances from the Spanish au thorities. that the prisoners captured should be honorably dealt with, nntil advices are received from W ashington. The report that the Saranac has been placed under the au thorities of Cub*, to arrest vessels with parties on board, was incorrect. The report of the arrest of the American Consul was also incorrect. The prisoners of the late Cuban expedition have been treat °d with great kindness, and all in the island was quiet when ’the Saranac left. The shooting of five prisoners heretofore reported, is incor rvct; the prisoners are at Havana, and will be sent home. Tlie Spanish authorities expressed much satisfaction at the coarse of the American government. The captain of the Saranac called on the captain General of Luba, and stated reasons why the men captured at Contoy tad abandoned the expedition and inquired what course the Spanish authorities intended to pursue, relative to the men captured at Contoy and Cardenas. In reply he was informed that a distinction had been made between these and those who landed at Cardenas. The for mer were well treated, and would liave fair opportunity to prove their innocence. No one was permitted to visit them, and he interview was altogether satisfactory. About three hours after the Saranac anchored at Havana, a ■ panish man of war came in with prisoners, but no prize.— The latter, it is supposed, was ordered to some other port to v pid collision.

Macon, June 14, 1850. 12—ts Dr. de GRAFFENRIED’S CELEBRATED RHEUMATIC LINIMENT, IN introducing this medicine to the people of the United States, for sale, the proprietors beg leave to submit the following statement of Dr. de Graffenried, its discoverer and inventor: The undersigned frankly states that he has prescribed this medicine for the last twenty-two years, in all forms of Acute and Chronic Rheu matism, with a success unparalleled in the annals of of medicine; and he has no hesitation in saying, that it is decidedly the most valuable remedy ever yet discovered for the relief of this most painful and dis j tressing malady. His note-book contains upwards of three hundred cases, in which it has been used within the above named period, and in no single instance has it come to his knowledge, of its having failed to effect a cure when persevered in. Many of the cases were from four to ten years standing; and what may appear yet more remarkable and extra ordinary, is, that when the patient has been once relieved, the disease is permanently cured, remains so, not a solitary instance having been reported to him of its return. All he would ask for this remedy is a fair, impartial and patient trial, for the results he entertains no apprehension. Up to the time of this discovery, the undersigned had well studied the origin, progress and character of this disease, and is well assured, had consulted every author on its treatment, who had written or been translated into the English language, and had used all the remedies of any notoriety then in vogue with the profession, with however, very rarely any relief to poor suffering humanity. It has battled the skill and science of the most eminent Physicians and Surgeons of our own, and of every other country. But the un dersigned flatters himself that his remedy will cure this most painful disease, when all others have failed, and thqt he shall have been an humble instrument in the hands of God, of relieving the human family of a vast amount of suffering. E. L. de GRAFFENRIED, M. D. CERTIFICATES. FROM COL. A. K. AYER. Dr. E. L. de Graffenried —Learning that you are about j to manufacture for the public, your valuable Rheumatic Lin | intent, I take pleasure in stating that I believe it one of the ‘ most valuable remedies ever used for that common and most distressing disease, having witnessed its effects upon a ne- I gro man of mine, who had been afflicted for four years, un til almost every joint was enlarged, and the body otherwise : emaciated. By the use of four or five bottles, in three weeks, | he was relieved entirely from pain. Columbus, Ga., Oct. 24, 1843. A. K. AYER. Columbus, October 30, 1849, Dear Sir—About the first of April last, I came to Colum bus to get medical assistance, and was advised to call on you as having a remedy that would afford me speedy relief. I ! was taken down in January last, with a violent attack of Rheumatism in nearly all my joints, so badly, that I could not pull oft’my shoes without aid ; nor couid i ascend or de- I scend steps, or pull oft - my clothes without assistance. My I right arm and hand were nearly useless ; the fingers con tracted and swollen ; the right knee swollen and stiffened, so that I could not bend it but very little. Up to the Ist of April, I was all the time in suffering and pain ; I rubbed with your Rheumatic Liniment my limbs three times, and was the next morning enabled to descend a long ffight of I steps, without aid of crutch or stick, and back to my room—l could also bend my knee and bring it up to the chair, which the previous day, I could not have done if my life had de pended on it. I could also use, open and bend my fingers, which was an impossibility the day before. I rose in the J morning from fliy bed entirely relieved of pain. I used one j bottle and an eight ounce vial of your Rheumatic Liniment, ! and in ten days, 1 was relieved. I would not have been in the condition which I had been ten days before I called on you, for any amount of money that could be given me ; for what is life worth when in constant pain and misery ! I j consider your Rheumatic Liniment, the most valuable med icine in the world. I am, dear sir, your friend, J. H. SMITH. Columbus, Nov. 1, 1849. Dear Sir—My negro woman Patience, a cook, had a stiff neck from a painful Rheumatic affection, for six or seven years, and could not turn her neck except with the body. 1 was induced to purchase a bottle of your Liniment, which was applied in August or September of 1848. One bottle entirely relieved her and she now has the use of her neck as well as ever she had ; and up to this time it has not return ed. GARLAND B. TERRY. Philadelphia, Feb. 1, 1850. Dr. de Graffenried—Dear Sir: Having been afflicted, for p“-* ; --••itk a :itiack of Rhouniatism, und having heard of the wonderful eftects oi you* r.neumauc Liniment, I was induced to try a bottle of it, and after three days, I was so much relieved as to be able to leave the house and attend to business. I have perfectly recovered from the disease, and would cheerfully recommend the Liniment to all those who are afflicted. GEORGE HOOD, 27 Powell st. Columbus, Ga., Oct. 13, 1849. Dr. E. L. de Graffenried—Dear Sir: Agreeable to your request, 1 give my testimonial as to the virtue of your Lini ment in the cure of Rheumatism. Being attacked in one joint of my finger, last winter, with acute Rheumatism, and having used many of the unnumbered prescriptions for its cure, with but little benefit, I made application of two bottles of your Liniment, which l am happy to say relieved me in a very short time. I can recommend its use to all persons af fected in like manner. Very respectfully, F- S. CHAPMAN. I can testify to the efficacy of Dr. do Graffenried’s Rheu matic Liniment in the case of Mr. F. S. Chapman, as it came under my immediate observation. Oct. 13, 1849. R- A. AYARE, M. D. Dear Sir—Some time in January last, Mrs. McKee was taken very ill with Inflammatory Rheumatism in her shoul der joints, extending to her elbow joint, and arm, which dis abled her from using her arm almost entirely; and from the pain, want of sleep, and great restlessness, for not less than six weeks, I was induced by my friend, Mr. Luke Reed, to call on you for a bottle of your Liniment, and by using half the battle, she was entirely relieved, and tlie relief was man ifest or sensible after three or lour rubbings. lam of opinion it is one of the most valuable remedies that has ever been dis covered for Rheumatism: that is, from my own knowledge, and that which I have heard from others. Dr. E. L. de Graffenried. 11. C. McKEE. Columbus, Oct. 19tli, 1849. Dr. de Graffenried—Dear Sir: 1 take pleasure in saying, I have a boy who was so badly afflicted with Rheumatism, that he could not raise his hand to his head, and had nearly lost the use of his arm. I used the fourth of a bottle of your Rheumatic Liniment, which relieved him entirely. 1 con sider it a most valuable remedy for the cure of Rheumatism. RANDOLPH L. MOTT. Jones’ Hotel. Philadelphia, March 3d, 1850. C 0! ..?. B. Hagan —Bir, it affords me preat pleasure to lie able to bear testimony to the efficacy and virtues of Dr. dc Graffrnried's Rheumatic JAnimeut. I have been sorely afflicted for the last six years with what I believ ed to be, and what eminent Physicians of this city pronounced, Rheu matic pout, for several winters past I have been confined to my room and bed nearly all the time. In January last, I had an attack as violent if not more so than usual, which prostrated me for about three weeks; on your recommendation I commenced the use of this Liniment. (With I must confess but little faith.) Its effects were astonishing and decidedly beneficial from its first application. In a few days my back, wrists and ankles were entirely relieved (and so continue) of all the soreness and pains, and the swellinps reduced, with the use of less than one bottle. I have been iu the dischargt of my ordinary business ever since. 1 consider it an extraordinary, and decidedly the most efficacious remedy for this disease, which I have ever met with. And most cheer fully recommend its use to all who may be afflicted w'ith it. Respectfully Yours, N. W. BRIDGET 8 , Jones’ Hotel. Baltimore, March 30, 1850. Dr. dc Graffenried — Dear Sir, for the last twelve years, I have sul fcrec very severely with the Rheumatism, having been nearly one fourth of the time confined to my bed by it. I have had the best med ical aid to be found in various cities in the United States, with little or no benefit. 1 have also tried innumerable strongly recommended remedies, which have failed to effect a cure. I spent the last summer at the White Sulphur and Hot Springs in Virginia, to little purpose. After my return home, I so far recovered, as to be able to walk about a little. About six weeks since, I had a severe attack which again con fined me to my bed, 1 was in great pain and scarcely able to move my limbs, when a friend of mine called and informed me that you had dis covered an infallible remedy, and had cured many,and amongst them, one of my friends, and showed me a letter from him stating the fact. I was induced to try your Rheumatic Liniment, and take pleasure in informing you that in less than twenty-four hours from the first appli cation 1 was perfccVy free from pain, and continue so up to this time. I am now able to attend to business, and fondly hope all those afflict ed, as I have been, may be as speedily relieved, as 1 have been with your medicine. Wishing you all the blessings you deserve dear sir, Your grateful and obedient Servant, GEO. WARDS WORTH. Columbus, Ga., Oct. 20, 1840. Dr. de Graffenried — Dear Bir, I take pleasure in giving you the particulars of my affliction by, and relief from Rheumatism. During the spring of 1844 1 was afflicted with a very severe attack of Inflam matory Rheumatism. J employed all the most celebrated remedies then known and used in similar cases, aided by medical advice, until September, 1845, with no satisfactory result whatever. I was then induced, by a rheumatic acquaintance, to try your Liniment, as some thing new, and which had cured him; and in one month from the time I commenced the application, I was well, and clear of the Rheu matism as I ever was, and have continued so to this time.

Ijl— JOB WORK with Neatness and Despatch, AT TEH GEORGIA OTIZEN” OFFICE BROWN’S iit™# mitßEssm: POWER PRESS. THE ad vantages of this new POWER PRESS, and its superiority over all others, are as follows: The power applied is multiplied 440 times, by the Lever and Eccen tric pully, that is, one hundred pounds power applied to the Lever will exert a force 24,000 pounds on the Cotton. The whole top of j the bale box is open to receive the Cotton, and it may be put as near the Gin House as is desired. It is three times as powerful as a screw 1 of 18 inches diameter, that has a nine inch pitch of thread with the ! ! same length of Lever, and of course the horse has to walk but one- ‘ : third as far, for the reason that a lever is required but one-third as long j 1 to do the same work. And further, the Press follower descends with i I much greater rapidity at the commencement of the operation, when I j but little power is required, which shortens the distance travelled by ! : the horse, in proportion to the increased velocity of the follower at j the start. This Press can be made very compact, and equally powerful, by i ; using the wheel and axle, ami can be so modified as to answer any 1 purpose where a Press is necessary for manufacturing or domestic purposes. For Cotton it requires one-fourth less work to build, and three-fourths less work to raise, than the screws, and if a cast iron Ec- 1 j centric wheel is used, it will not be much over half the work to build 1 as a screw. For Pressing Cotton, Tobacco, Hemp, Hay,&c. it cannot i i be excelled. There is one-third less timber in this Press than in the ; screw, and it is certainly the cheapest ever built. The whole cost of the Irons will not exceed 545, which may be had i ofC. If. Levy, of Macon, who is the only person authorized to furnish them. This sum is exclusive of freight and the cost of right to use j the Press. If the Eccentric wheel is made of Iron, the cost will be 10 or sl3 more for the Iron work, but it will materially lessen the 1 : cost of labor on the wood work of the wheel, and will be the cheap i est > n the ood. Any good Mechanic can construct the Press fromthe drawings and specifications which will accompany each right. . I shall sell a single right at S2O, which sum can b sent by mail at ! my risk, provided the fact of sending is certified to by the Postmaster jot the place where the letter is mailed. Each right will be accompa ; nied by an engraving and a full description, so that any mechanic will j j be able to build the Press. Any communications, piost-paid, will be punctually attended to. p.

TIIOTOSON, TO. !>., MACON, GEORGIA. a period of ox-er thirteen years, it has been the province of the undersigned, to present to the people of Georgia, and the surrounding States, the results of the use of innocent Vegetable Medicines, in the treatment and cure of disease, as contradistinguish--! from poisonous substances, to which from childhood, they have been accustomed, and to whose pernicious effects upon the constitution, many of them are living witnesses. The success which during this Ion? series of years, has attended his administrations, has. in many instances, been such, as to over come the most inveterate prejudices in favor of the old order of things, and to produce instead thereof, a conx-iction that even in medicine, as in other branches of the physical sciences new idea* may be advanc ed, and results achieved, that our ancestors would have deemed im possible, but which our posterity, thanks to the enlightenment of a coming age, may find easy of accomplishment. This succeds in curing diseases >f the mosi hopeless character after allother means had failed, and that too, in many instances, without see ing the patient, has long been the subject of general remark, exhibiting as it does, in bold relief the difference between restoring a case that has been absolutely abantloncd, and simply raising another, that hun dreds of others could cure. Such cases can be pointed out in almost every county in Georgia, where some poor, dccrepid, helpless being, after testing every local means without avail have sent off, as a dernier resort, a description of their diseases to a distance, in many instances hundreds of miles, and received back those health restoring remedies that have restored them again to health and to society, to their own astonishment and their neighbors wonder, putting at naught the sneers of antagonistic interests, and adding new finger posts at every post office and cross roads, pointing the way the city of refuge. Without subjecting himself to the charge of presumption, he would yet boldly say, that he firmly believes that nine-tenths of the so called I incurable cases in Georgia, are yet within the reach of medicine,and i can be cured by pursuing a proper course of medication, with the ex ercise of necessary care ahd persexerance, on the part of the patient, which in all cases of a lingering character, arc ofthe last importance. The great facilities forthis kind of treatment presented in the cheap i postage system, has been taken advantage of by thousands who hap | pily can indirectly attribute their present good health to that noble spe cimen of liberal government; and there are thousands more who may ! reap the same advantages, by simply pursuing a similar course. Let : the afflicted if he cannot write himself, get his neighbor to do it for him, give a history of his case, age, habits, and symptoms, tb same j as talking to a physician. If able and it is convenient, enclose I the fee; if not convenient just then, a due bill for the amount will answer, (this obviates the income nience of making accounts at greet \ distances,) and if not able, pre-pay and mail the letter to bis address, I when medicines suitable to the case will be compounded and sent j with full directions. The charge for treatment is only <*s) five dollars, monthly, a sum sufficiently small to obviate the fear of risk to any one, and yet suffi- I cieutto preserve him from loss in his extensive administrations. This done, call at thh post office j n a reasonable time, and receive j your rhedlcines with as much precision as you Would a letter; pre ! pare and use them as directed, and persevere; report progress montb- I ly, or oftener, as may be neec-sary, and closely watch the progress of j the cure. j Il a ’ mg been long and extensively engaged in the treatment of di | eases peculiar to females, he would say that they may avail them selves of his knowledge, with the utmost confidence, in his prudence and integrity, so that in writing out their symptoms, they may express themselves with the necessary freedom. In some of the diseases of ; ihe renal and procreative system, the medicines being more costly, the ; charge will be increased. Such cases as require personal attention, will be treated on liberal terms in the city, where the necessary accommodations can always be hail. Those wishing further information in regard to results, will address j a post-paid letter to the undersigned, who will immediately mail to ; the applicant such documents as must disarm doubt. , , M H.
