THE CONDITIONS OF HEALTH.
It is idle to expect health when tho precautions
necessary to secure it are neglected. Tho human
organization is a dc.licato piece of mechanism, and
requires as much intelligent caro and watchfulness
to keep it in order, as aro requisite in tho manage
ment of tlio most complicated combination of levers,
wheels and pinions.
At this season of tlio year tho bod}’ is peculiarly
sensitive, becanso it is greatly weakened and re
laxed by tlio continuous beat. Tlio skin, in sum
mer, with its millions of pores wide open, is a very
different sort of tegument from tho compact cover
ing which it become under tho action of tlio win
ter’s cold. Tlio muscles, too, aro comparatively
flaccid, tho nerves tremulous, tho blood poor, and
tlio whole frame less capablo of enduring the fa
tigue and resisting disease, than iii cool weather.
Tlieso indications of a depressed condition of the
vital forces arc so many unmistakablo hints that na
ture needs reinforcing.
Ordinary stimulants will not effect this object.
They inflamo and oxdle, hut do not strengthen.

CITY AFFAIRS.
SATURDAY MOKNTN'G, AUGUST 7, IW.i.
Nioirr Pnownos.—Macon is now infested with
almost any numticr of negro night prowlers, and
they can Iks seen at all hours of the night on the
main streets and in tho alleys, a few blocks from
tho heart of tlio city, hanging about people's fences
and gates, watching an opportunity to steal what
ever 1 hey can conveniently carry off. In passing up
Second street on Friday night last, betwocn 12 and
1 o'clock, and just as wo got to tho mouth of tho
alley between Poplar and Plum streets, a buck negro
jumped over the fence, into, tlio Btreet, within ten
feet of us, and ono or two dogs came bow-wow-jug
after him tho next moment. Wc halted tho ran.*
and asked him what ho was doing in tho lot at that
timo of night, and hesitating and stammering in an
excited manner, for a moment, ho replied tliat ho
was trying to find a blacksmith shop. Wo told him

Shot.—Yesterday evening, Messrs. H— and P—,
two young gentlemen of this city, and intimato
friends, had a Iittlo altercation at their hoarding
house, on Third street, which grew out of an effort
of P., who was drinking, to abuse a servant of tho
house for not moving a chair, which P. had over
turned in rising from the enppor table. IL, seeing
that his friend was in tlio wrong, interferred when
ho saw him take hold of tho servant, and this very
much incensed P. toward IL, and drew lna knife.
Officer Foster then sprang between the partios, and
P. was carried to tho back yard, whilo n. quietly
walked away. In a few moments P. returned and
inquired for IL He was informed that he had left
P. then remarked tliat ho would find him, and went
to H.’s bufiiness house; but not finding him there
ho went to ono or two other places. About 8
o’clock, however, tho parties met on tho pavement
in front of Grier & Lake’s, on Third street, when
n., seeing P. f approaching with knife in hahd, drew
his pistol, and as ho seized it at tho muzzle with

Pyrafngo can well stand, as to-day it is decidodly

to throw off diseaso. Pyrafngo does not nausoato

Unkast.—A rather superstitious colored friend
who honors us with his confidence, and has been to
us hoforo to explain or solvo knotty questions tliat
seemed to givo him some trouble, accosted us yes
terday on tlio subjoct of tho great solar oclipso
which takes placo tliis afternoon. Ho wanted to

We agreed with our s&hlo friend, and told him that
had nover heard of a man who had successfully
dodged an oclipso, and that wo would all havo to

After satisfying him that there was no danger in

gratefully thanked us for giving him a “lectio satis-

tho nervo to test tlio matter. Wohearit sometimes

strength. ‘‘No uso to try." AVo toll you, young

Alabama Commissioners for tho cession of West
Florida to Alabama, leaves this morning for Mariana,

the peoplo of West Florida between now and tho

lie held and the matter finally settled for or against

crowd and a fair docket.
Tho first caso called was ono tliat had boen con
tinued, against E. O. Connell, for drunkenness and
disorderly conduct, and resisting an officer. Ho was
fined $25 in each caso.
Two negro women were then brought up for fight
ing ; but it appeared from tho testimony that it was
moro in fan than anger that the parties had col
lided, and tho case was settled by sending one of
tho women to the hospital, on account of the inter
esting circumstances by which sho was surrounded,
Andrew Johnson, a negro, was sent ont of town
for disorderly conduct.

Tho storm came from the west, hot beforo tlio heav

and wo lnul only a light rain during tho early part
of tlio nigliL, with a good deal of lightning ami

laws are no longer in force. Everybody does
that which is right in his own eyes. The judi
cial functionaries complain that they have no
power to support them, and that they aro pow
erless to punish crime. Tho o If Aiders against
law and order incroaso in number and audacity.
Ono small town near Ciudad Real was recently
invaded by a band of brigands, who entered Uio
houses xenalim, and fired on all' who resisted.
After eating an excellent supper, and taking
what property they conld find, thoy departed,
carrying off three young ladies belonging to dis

and several wounded by these miscreants. The

tlirough tAngled^/orcsts of Tropical shrubs and

of which were several buildings. Entering these we
found them to bo tho “press houses,” stills, etc.,
where the sugar cane is crushed for tho manufac
ture of St. Croix Rum. Over 100 Coolies were at
work, and tlio smell from the fermenting vats was
very exliilcrating and pleasant. We were shown
dirongh tho entire establishment, and learned that
all the rum hero produced was shipped to Messrs,
P. H. Drake 4 Co., Now York, to be made into their

We know of ono or two very filthy back yards in
tlio square in which this office is situated, which wo
hope to see cleaned in a short while. The gentlo-
man who called onr attention to the subject re
quests ns to stir np the authorities, and get them to
enforce the law in such coses made and provided.
The authorities are, therefore, hereby notified that
thoy aro “stirred.”
Great Variety of Silver wore otL.II. Wing’s, 48
Second street.
Two Now York ladies stopped their carriage
on a crossing. One went into a store and the
other remained in tho carriage. Two gentle
men wishing to cross the street ordered the
coachman to move on. The lady in the carriage
told him not to stir. On this one of the gentle
men opened tho coach door, and with his boots
and spurs stepped through the carriage. He
was followed by his companion, to the extreme
discomposure of tho lady within as well as the
lady without. To complete the jest, a party of
sailors coming np, and relishing the joke.—
scrambled throngh tho carriage.
The Reformed Church in New York have been
very fortnnate in their real estate transactions.
They rented the old church in Nassau-street for
a postoffice, and for many years drew a rent for
§20,000 per annnm. Then they sold it for $250,-
000 and bought six ’lots in Fifth avenue of
$30,000, which are worth 200,000. They also
bought, about thirty years ago, four lots in La
fayette place, on which they also built a church.
For these lots they paid $10,000. They now
ask $400,000, and will probably get their price.
The “Avitor" or flying machine, now in
course of construction at San Francisco, is only
a partial success. It will navigate the air in
calm, but the slightest breeze disconcerts its
movements. The Chronicle thinks that if the
inventor should ever start for New York, he
would be quite as likely to bring np at Cape
Horn or the North Pole.
President Grant and party have been visiting
around in New Jersey. He went to the triple
estate of Messrs. Campbell and Brick and Mrs.
Stetson the other day, when the children imped
ed his feet with flowers, the men nearly shook
his hand off, and finally presented him with a
fifty-acre lot which, according to the attendant
Jenkins, “he thankfully accepted.'’
That venerable abolitionist, Horace Gree

Tho Magnolia Balm changes tho rustic country

Redness, Sunburn, Tan, Freckles, Blotches, and
all effects of tho summer sun, disappear when it is
used, and a genial, cultivated, fresh expression is
