CHRONIC CATARRH. In proceeding to a description of those diseases most frequent and fatal in their effects npon the Mr. Coleman's Dry Goods Store. Hr. S. Coleman has been making an impor tant addition and improvement to his popular Dry Goods Emporium, by -which he has nearly donblod its size. He has lengthened it in the rear, so as to pierce the contiguous block, and unite with the next store, fronting on Cherry street, by which means his store describes an el bow, or two aides of a square—and has two fronts, one on Second, and the other on Cherry street. The extension of his original store is covered with plate glass, which gives a fine light, and will be admirablo for the display of rich dress goods. Beyond this, broad arches, supported on iron columns, give entrance to the Cherry street store, which will bo devoted to woolen goods of ail descriptions. Both to- gether give him a hundred and fifty or sixty feet of length in store room on tho ground floor—very convenient and finely ventilated. In a short time it will be filled with new and rich goods, in anticipation of an unusually busy season. The Cabinet on the Test Oath in Yieoinia. The specials to tho Lonisville Courier-Journal from Washington, tho 18th, say that well-inform ed parties in that city are confident that Attor ney General Hoar will sustain Canby’s construc tion of the law in regard to the test oath in his forthcoming opinion, and decide that itmnst be administered to the members of the Virginia Legislature". Boutwell and Cresswell will sus tain Hoar, but Fish, Robeson, and Rawlins will oppose him, holding that the act of Congress does not require the test oath of the Virginia legislators. Cox is regarded as uncertain, though many claim that ho will coincide with Fish and Rawlins. It is also understood that Attorney General Hoar has not yet prepared any opinion, which ncconntsfortbe delnyin de finite Cabinet notion relative to this most im portant subject. National FnEEDitE-v's Savings and Trust Com pany.—Wo call attention to tho advertisement of tho Macon branch of this useful institution, which may be found in Hollingsworth Range, Poplar street. We sco it has now on deposit thirteen thousand dollars, belonging to three hundred depositors. Tho whites should advise and enconmgo tho negroes to aavo and accumu late their earnings in this bonk. Tho first step to a substantial improvement in the condition of these people will be shown in the accumula tion of property. This involves tho virtue of self-denial, prudence, forecasto and persever ing industry, and when the man begins to ac cumulate his little store, his self-respect and in terest in tho order and well-being of society wondorfully increaso. Few among these de positors, wo ventnro to say, will bo found among tho turbulent, idle, vicious and lnwless. Tho moral lessons and habits of accumulation and thrift aro far more valuable than the mero amount of savings. A Desi>ebate Riot in New Jebset—A desper ate riot occurred on Thursday, at Spring Hill Grove. The Emmett Guards of Jersey City had a pic-nic there, numbering fifteen hundred per sons. A rough insulted a Indy, and was knocked down by one of tho Guards. A general fight en sued. Tho roughs were largely in tho majority, making a desperate attack on tho Guards. Dur ing the meloo revolvers were drawn and knives and stones freely used. After a great effort the Emmetts succeeded in getting back to thoir barges, and put off. Bnying Spoil Cotton. Parties who buy seed cotton, ought in good faith to the community, to keep n record of their pnrehnses and to aim at reasonable assurance that they are not buying stolen property. Wo call attention to an article upon this subject on the fourth page of this edition. The nEAT.—Yesterday the heat was almost insupportable. The mercury on Mulberry street, at Loh's shop, was 103 at fivo o'clock, p. m. At Zoilin's it was 103, and 102 at six o’clock. The sun was teiriblo in its scorching might. Let us abolish kitchen fires, and cook our dinners by snnsbino. The Comet.—On our first pago will bo found an interesting article on comets in general, and, in particular, the great comet which is threat ening to knock this mundane sphere into seve ral small pieces and terrifying the pooph The Railroad Wail—Mr. J. M. Ahr, iu the Nownnn Herald, gives some well considered views upon the great railroad war, and tho probability of Macon’s becoming n way station on the railwnys. His communication will bo found on the 4th page. Mob Law in Illinois.— Cairo, August 19.— The negro Baldwin, who was arrested here, and confessed having ontraged Mrs. Benson, the wife of a clergyman near Paducah, was taken from the jail of that city yesterday beforo day light, by eighty armed men, and hung to a tree at tho cross-roads in tho suburbs, with a placard on his breast warning persons from cutting down the body. A Fcss in the Family.—Tho New York Times, in an editorial on Thursday, in which the separn tion of Lord Byron and wife is detailed, asserts that Mrs. Stowe’s narrative is entirely without foundation, and is a base slander. Mrs. Stowe alleges in her narrative, on the au thority of Lady Byron, that Lord B. was guilty of incest with his own sister. Savannah Cotton Statement. Our weekly report and tables, published else where, says the Republican of Friday, show the following facts: The receipts at all the ports to the latest dates are 2,035,823 bales, being 95,- 070 bales less than those of last year at the same time. There has been a decrease of 208,338 bales in the exports to foreign ports, while the shipments to domestic ports have increased 53,- 994 bales. The stocks on hand amount to 23,- 8C3 bales, against 55,494 bales last season, four bea]th and BtreDgth of and ' thcrefore ' fifths of which is held in New York.

It thus ap pears that Savannah is a long way ahead. hours. * So long as the people remain ignorant of the canses which produce Consoimton, and of the symptoms which mark its first stealthy and insid ious approaches, we cannot hope that any timely steps will be adopted for its prevention. Consumption have several stages : it has a first, or forming stage ; a second or confirmed stage; and a third, or ulcerative stage. The lungs do not become immediately stuffed with tubercles, or cor- Thc Collon Crop ofGeorgla.

We think it must be a good deal of both. At all events, the disease saps the vitality of the plant at once. It wilts, droops, and frequently falls prone upon the bosom of Mother Earth. YYhat bolls are sufficiently ma tured, will open prematurely and develope their contents of rather inferior cotton, and then the account of that stalk is closed forever. Georgia will make as mnch cotton as she did last year, and that was a very scant crop. YVhothor she will do better, and if so, how much, is yet to be settled. Colton Tax Claims, YVe have seen a circular from YVashington, which states that it is now certain that the en tire Supreme Bench, with one exception, aro of opinion that the cotton tax was unconstitutional, and will have to be refunded. A case is to be made in Court next December, and is no doubt is felt abont tho nltimate resnlt. It is further said, that a company is being organized in Now York with a capital of five or ten millions to buy np these claims and that parties aro now selling them for a song when they are worth their face. Planters and others, who have paid this tax, are earnestly advised not to part with their claims for the present No doubt they will bo collected at the proper time, at a very moderate per centage. From Cranford. Knoxville, Ga., August 20,1869. Editors Telegraph: Reading the “local" of tho Journal and Messenger yesterday, “Horri ble Outrage by Negroes,” caused me to fall into tho reflection that tho piece was probably a sen sation article, not attributable, however, to tho Local. Tbe following facts will illustrate : Last week a man professing to have pursued a negro from Alabama, who, with another had attacked two sisteis and outraged them and cut the arm off one of them to avengo the loss of his own,caused by the father of tho girls, came to our county and excited mnch sympathy by tho relation of the above outrage, which hejocated in Alabama He obtained the loan of a citizen's mule to con tinue the pursuit, neither of which have been heard from sinco. | Now the last mentioned facts and tho “ hor rible outrage” are so near alike as to arouse at least a suspicion that something is rotten in Denmark. No. 1* is so accessible to Macon that there can bo no difficulty in having the facts verified. It is reronrkablo that two cases so distant, but so much alike in detail and description of pefpo- tion (for tho negro in Alabama is described ex actly as the one in “ horrible outrage”) should liavo occurred at the same time.

The error is too wide-spread among the people, and too general oven among physicians, to regard Consumption as a disease characterized not only by cough, but Purulent Expectoration, Hectic Fever, Night Sweats, Masting of Flesh and Loss of Strength ; in other words, to apply tho name Con sumption only to the last stago of tho disease.— YYero it otherwise, wo should not havo to listen with feelings of pity and sorrow to such expressions as fit is only a Catarrh,” “the disease is all in the throat,” or “it is only a slight bronchial affection.” Alas, how few realize tho fact that these diseases, unimportant as they aro generally looked npon, and Consumption, are all links in the same chain, and that there aro few who suffer from these affections who do not sooner or later fill a consumptive’s grave. Chronic Nasal Catarrh is generally the result of neglected and frequently repeated attacks of tho acute variety of this disease (which become practi cally known to most of us several times a year in the shape of a “cold in the head.”) After a long or shorter time the liabilities to at tacks of Acute Catarrh become increased, and the patient finds, aftcr it lias passed off, there remains a discharge of yellow Mucus. This is Chronic Catarrh in its most usual form. On examining the nostrils with a speculum, or instrument specially adapted to that purpose, wo find its lining mem- bran o more or less thickened—redder than in health, and often ulcerated. In the simplest form wo have merely an aocumuluation of yellow or straw-colored mucus in tho Posterior Marts above and behind the palate, which tbe patient “ hawks” out from time to time during tbe day. As tho disease advances, little points of ulceration ap pear fa tho mucous membrane, npon which the se cretion becomes luidonod, forming crusts, requir ing almost constant 11 picking” to keep it freo; and as these inspissated masses of muens are tom from the diseased surface of tho nose, they become irri tated and frequently bleed profusely. aug22-tf L.

Editors Telegraph : For the benefit of your numorons readers, I propose to give my obser vation of tbe cotton caterpillar. I have watched their movements very closely this season. A dnsky yellowish white moth, with light green eyes, first makes its appearance in no very great numbers, lying still during tho day, active after sundown. Very shortly is seen a light green worm abont one and a half inches long when fnll grown. These worms feed upon the tender leaves of the cotton till they attain their fall size, which does not tako above two or three days; they then turn over a comer of a leaf up on themselves by means of a web. In one day a black shell forms over them from which they emerge in five days a fly or moth. From these the real caterpillar is bred in constantly increas ing numbers till they, by this process of genera tion, become so numerous as to destroy the crops. From their first appearance I have been hav ing the worms killed in the morning, and havo had many fires built in the fields at night, to at tract and bum the moths. I cannot yet say that I shall successfully combat their progress, I find the flies less numerous bnt the caterpillar on the increase; bnt this may be from eggs laid before my fires commenced to destroy the flies. I am satisfied that this is the only way to fight them. The flies come from the south, and may be seen in both com and cotton fields. The fires will do no good unless kept np for several weeks. Tho moth must be met with flames till the last of them aro destroyed. Last night I stood and watched numbers of them go into the flames and bnm themselves np. You may rely upon the foregoing statement as being the mode by which the caterpillar is produced. Farmer. Western & Atlantic Railroad, 1 Superintendent's Office, Atlanta, Ang. 20,1S69.)

Callaway, are respectfully invited to attend tho funeral of their infant son, Eddie E., at their resi dence on the comer of Second and Plumb streets, this (SUNDAY) afternoon at 5 o’clock. OZ-SHO. Is only an advanced stage of Canonic Catarrh when the ulceration of tbe mucous membrane has become extensive and tho bones of tho nose in volved in the disease. Tho discharges in this case are pnrnlent, or of a yellowish or greenish color, frequently tinged with blood, with an odor generally more or less disagreeable, or intolerably offensive. In the language of Dr. G. B. Wood, of Philadelphia, “ This form of disease is ono of the most obstinate and disagreeable affections which the physician has to encounter. In some instances the breath of the patient is so revoltingly offensive as almost to iso late him from society, and render him an object of disgust even to himself.” This form of tho disease generally occurs in stmmons, scrofulous and un healthy constitutions. When the health is injured and tho vitality of tho system is broken down by dissipation and virions habits, tho blood becomes impure, and all local diseases are liable to assnmo an aggravated character.
