friends will find them through tho coming season,
ready to receive, storo and sell cotton and extend

SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 20, I860.
PAINLESS DIGESTION.
“No man,” says Sir Astley Cooper, “ought to
know by his BenBations that ho has a stomach." In
other words, when digestion is perfect there is neith
er pain nor uneasiness in tho region wliero it takes
place. Nausea, want of appetite, flatulency, oppres
sion after eating, shooting pains in tho epigastrium,
a flushing of tho face at meal times, and a furred
tongue in tho morning, are among tho direct symp
toms of indigestion. Constipation, biliousness,
headache, nervous Irritability, physical weakness,
and low spirits, aro its almost invariable accompani
ments. All these indications of dyspepsia, whether
immediate or secondary, aro usually aggravated by
hot weather.
Tho close of summer is, therefore, tho season
when the victim of dyspepsia most urgently needs a
tonic and regulating medicine. Of course, every
Invalid has many advisers. Ono friend recommends
one drug, another another; but in a multitude of
counsellors there is not always safety. Tho stand
ard remedy for tho present ago for indigestion, in
all its stages, is HOSTETTER’S STOMACII BIT
TERS. Timo, that proves all things, has established
its reputation on an impregnablo foundation—tho
spontaneous testimony of millions of intelligent
witnesses. No acrid oil or acid defiles its stimula
ting principle; its tonic constituents aro the finest
that botanical rescach has yet discovered; it com
bines tho properties of a gcntlo cvacuant, & blood
dopurent, and an anti-bilious mcdicino, with invig
orating qualities of tho highest order, and is admit
ted, bo til by tho public and tho profession, to be
tbe surest protection against all diseases that aro
produced or propogatod by pestiferous air or un
wholesome water, that has ever been used in tho
Unitod States or Tropical America.
In caaos of constipation resulting from a want of
muscular tone in the intestines, the effect of tho
Bitters is perfectly marvellous; and without tlio
dangerous scqucncos of mercury, it restores the
disordered liver to a normal condition.

A Catastbopiie.—Not long since a company of
young men, the flower of the Macon chivalry, re
paired to the wharf on a moonlight night, for the
purpose of taking a bath in the river. After swim
ming and floundering around in the water for awhile,
the squad concluded to climb upon the shed which
extends out from the wharf and over the water as a
protection for the “Zillah," tho pretty little craft of
the “Innocents" Boat Club. The festive crowd took
their position in a circle for a song, on the top of
tho shed, their white, slick skins glittering in. the
silvery sheen of the moon. The leader of the choir,
j in a rich, full voice, lead off with that heart-rending
| air:
“Once I was happy, but now I'm forlorn."
j It was more than even the shed could stand, and,
i at the word forlorn, down it came with a crash and
a splash, precipitating the nude chivalry and talent
of the town, headlong into the mnd and water. It
was a “tremenjus’’ catastrophe, and one, too, that
made tho “tads” and little flshes skoot—you bet.
Mayor’s Court.—A fnfThouso and a fair docket
awaited His Honor’s entrance into the Council
Chamber yesterday morning. On taking tho Chair
tho Court called to taw that vile wretch, Lewis
Hunter, who, on tho proceeding day, had split open
the cheek of his wifo with a hatchet. The crime
was of a graver nature than this Court deals with,
and tho bruto was remanded for a warrant, and will
appear before Judge Colo at the next term of the
Superior Court.
Another brute of tho same stripe, named Henry
Tharp, was then called up on a charge of fighting,
in that ho hail been beating his wife. He was order
ed on the streets for thirty days, and wo hope the
tho street commissioner will give Hemy his special
attention, and seo to it that ho works h&nl every
moment of tho time.
The next two cases called were under tho head of
disorderly conduct. Tho first was dismissed, but
the second went a little rough with the offender, as
ho was linod $10, or he could sweat it out in tho
Guardhouse for ten days.
J. Jackson and Sallio Smith were then introduced
to the Court as pugilists; but owing to tho absence
of an important witness, tho caso was continued.
After lecturing a negro for shooting within tho
corporate limits and dinmissing tho caso against
him, tho Court adj turned.
Warehouse Acceptances.—This subject is now
the topic of some conversation in business circles,
and, wo dare say, is interesting tho minds of those
planters who havo given such paper in exchango for
corn, bacon and other supplies during tho snmmer
now closing. The planters met similar obligations
last year with a nobility and promptness that was
tho subject of universal praise and gratification
among our merchants and business men, and wo
havo not a doubt that they will do likewise this
season. Their cotton is opening rapidly, and by
pushing tho pickers for a short while, the planter
will, doubtless, bo able to have his cotton hero as
Ida paper falls dne. Promptness in this matter is
all important to the merchant, as ho has staked his
credit and goods upon tho honor and faith of his
planting friends, and wo aro suro not one of them
will fail to respond at the proper time; for, as a
general thing the planters of Georgia are the truest
and noblest class of men that walk tho earth.

READ THESE LINES AND PONDER THEM WELL
The best tests of tho merits of my proprietary
article is to ascertain what is thought of it at home
where it is manufactured. Such a tost Lippman’s
Tyrafugo can woll stand, as to-day it is decidedly
tho favorite remedy for chills and fever, dnrnb ague
and other diseases of a malarious origin, in the city
of Savannah where it is prepared. The principal
drugftsta of tho city would as much think of doing
without castor oil ill their stores as to be without
"this popular (and deservedly so) remedy. It is a
vegetable preparation free from deleterious drngB,
and acts as a tonic upon the entire system, thereby-
invigorating the system, so much so aa to enable it
to throw off disease. Pyrafuge does not nauseate
or sicken the patient, and can be taken by the most
delicate persons without fear. If should always be
at hand, as chills and fever creep upon ns so
stealthily that we are not aware of its approach un
til it is upon us. A word to the wise is sufficient-—

Nasal. CaTannn.—Wo publish in to-dsy'a iseno an
able and interesting article from tbe pen of Dr. Jas.
A. Hontor, tho eminent specialist of New Orleans,
describing the nature, symptoms and treatment of
a prevalent and distressing form of disease of tho
head or noso known aa Chronic Catarrh and Oxana,
tho latter being merely an advanced Btage or aggra
vated form of tho former as described by Dr. II., in
this and the procoding article. These diseases, with
Granular and Clergyman's Sore Throat, aro links
in tho chain of causoe producing many if not most
of the causes of consumption which occur, and by
remedying them the ravages of this scourge might
bo curtailed. Any information upon the subject
deserves our earnest consideration, particularly
when coming from a physician of Dr. Hunter's
reputation and experience, and wo trust that his
visit hero will prove a boon to many.
Dr. Hunter has been highly recommended by the
press and prominent citizens of Now Orleans, and
more recently of Atlanta. During liis visit boro he
will publish a series of articles in onr columns, de
scribing in plain, nntechnical language tho various
diseases of the head, throat and longs, and we re
commend them to tho perusal of our readers.

Neqeo Shot.—Yesterday evening, about sunset,
Louis lilienthal, a young man about nineteen years
of age, and a clerk in the dry goods house of Nuss-
baum A Danncnburg, on Third street, shot and
mortally wounded a negro man about grown, named
Aaron Kemp. The particulars of tho affair are
about as follows:
Aaron Kemp and another negro named George
Allen came np on the Brunswick Road, from below
Station ".where they have been at work for the last
three months. Aaron had in his possession about
rll, and was on his way to Marietta, where he lives:
George lives in this city. The two negroes, soon
after their arrival, were walking up Third street,
and Aaron desiring some clothing, entered the store
of Nuasbanm A Dannenbnrg—George entering with
him. After purchasing two shirts, Aaron asked for
a pair of boots and coat, and young lilienthal in
vited him np-etaire. As it was getting dark, Lilien-
thal called another clerk to come np and strike a
light, and passed on after the required goods. The
negro stepped at tho side of tho counter, while the
light was being made, and Lilienthal says he saw
him put a box of socks in his shirt bosom, and seiz
ing Aaron by the shirt told Mm to give them up or
he would kill him, and drew his pistoL Tho negro
broke loose and started to run down etairs, when
Lilienthal fired upon Litp, the ball taking effect
about two inches to tho left of tho spinal column
and passing through the bowels, lodged just under
tbe skin near the centre of the abdomen, inflicting
a mortal wound.
This statement of the cause of the shooting is
denied by George Allen, the negro who accompanied
Aaron into the store. But as the case will be
thoroughly investigated to-morrow, we postpone
fnrther remarks, more than to say that tho young
clerk was immediately arrested by officer Avant, and
lodged in the Guardhouse, while Aaron was carried
to the house of his companion, when Doctors Wright
and Mettiner extracted the ball from his abdomen,
and gave him some opiate to produce sleep.
The affair caused great excitement among the
negroes, and for awhile we feared their indignation
and anger would get the better of them. The
police, however, had tho matter well in hand and
prevented any disturbance.
Pen Spoet.—There was no mistaking tho temper
of the son's rays yesterday. They came down and
went in without ceremony; or with only the cere
mony of perspiration.
Have a purpose in life. If yon don’t you will not
be likely to have anything as a result.
In passing along Second street last evening we
heard a sweet voice in a parlor doing up ‘‘Coming
through tho Bye.” It halted ns for a moment, for
it wae as delicious as going through a bed of straw
berries.
People who f ass and fnmo rarely amount to a row
of headless pine. Yon can’t get weight on hollow
wares.
One of tho plays nowon Northern boards is: "Aa
cool as a Cucumber.” Wouldn’t it be jolly if the
weather down this way was of that sort ?
Never allow a tender feeling to degenerate into a
soft one. Remember this, ye festive youth, at the
watering places.
Old people take to glasses because they want to
see; young men becanso they want to feel good;
onr sweetheart because she likes to contemplate
something she tMnka is beautiful.
The statistics of Macon show that marriages
among the nativo population are decreasing. The
single and simple reason of this is the cost of mar-
ried life. Young men are not afraid of tho bloom
ing institution, but they can’t stand the depicting
expense.
Onr devoted young friends and “luvycrB” who
sit up so late -At night with their dnldnas, forget
that sleep is as necessary to ensure activity and vig
or as food. Those who attempt to lire without
sleep find in time that they aro without good brain
and energy. Nature la quite too sharp to be choated.
That ia tho wont tyranny which, under the name
of liberty, rnna into license.
Some of the wont dressed poople to be seen in
the streets and elsewhere, aro those who havo on
tho nicest garments. Fitness, purpose and place
are the determining points. A deck who goes to bis
store in fine broadcloth, or the scams trees to her
shop in silks, are badly dressed. Neither fitness
nor purpose nor place aro considered. Thcro aro
also times when the shabbiest garment looks beet,
just as there are others when tbe beat look only
passable.
Thebe was a little “set to” between a white man
and a negro, on Cherry street yesterday, about a
half dollar. Both were lodged in tbe guardhouse to
await the Mayor's court to-morrow.

OF THE AGE-
HURLEY’S AGUE TONIC!
NO ARSENIC-NO MERCURY.
PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
The only remedy for Chills and Fever, or A*gne and
Fever, that is or can be depended upon, is HUR
LEY’S AGUE TONIC. There have been thousands
cured by using it who have tried tho usual remedies
without benefit.
WORTHY OF ATTENTION.
To Dr. Thos. A. Hurley:
I hereby certify that during last year I was attack
ed with tho Agu c whilst in Vicksburg, Miss., and used
several popular medicines with but temporary relief.
On reaching home the disease returned in a worse type,
if possible, when my medical attendant ordered Qui
nine in largo doses—frequently as high as sixty
grains per day. and which must have cost mo nearly
$100. I consulted Dr. Smith, of Louisville, and found
he prescribed quinine and arsenic combined, which I
refused to take, preferring to let the disease take its
course. I was almost bloodness. extremely exhausted,
and pronounced with enlarge Liver and Spleen. About
this time the advertisement jf Hurley’s Ague ionic
appeared in » city paper, and I determined to rive it
atrial. I did so, and have no reason to regret it.
One boiUerestored me completely, andsincc that time
I have seen nearly a hundred cases in which it acted
with equally happy results, and would certainly
recommend it as preferable to any other tonic before
the public.

Hurley’s Sarsaparilla is what it is represented, and
I believe it tbe moat wonderful medicine before tbe
public. Nothing under the heavens coulu induce me
to say so without proof of tbe strongcat and sure>t
kind: therefore I speak willingly aad positively on
the subject.
My daughter has been afflicted with skin disease
aad stiffness of the joints for several years. I em
ployed the principal physicians of the city and they
could not core her. I gave her yoor Sarsaparilla,
not expecting it would do much good, bat to my great
astonishment she rapidly got well, and thank God
oontinttes so. Had she been taking any medicine I
would not give this certificate: bat year Sarsaparilla,
the only remedy employed, leaves no doubt of its
medical qualities, nna that ft alone cured her.

POPULAR WORM 0 NDY.
A* this is really a specific for Worms, and the best
and most palatable form to give to children, it is not
surprising that it is fast taking tbe place of all other
preparations for worms—it being perfectly tasteless,
and any child will take it.
Messrs. James Raddle Jt Co.—Gentlemen: It gives
me great pleasure to say, after using all the other worm
remedies known to me. with bat partial success to my
children. 1 was advised to try Dr. T. A. Hurley’s,
and since using it. my children have become well
and healthy ; the children would eat it all the time, it
is so pleasant, if we would let them. I believe
it is ono of the best and safest remedt*** known, and
as such, recommend it to one one no - .11.

Gextleuex ; This is to certify that I have been for
years a sufferer, and have tried all the tonics I have
heard of or seen advertised, with little or no relief
from any of them. I heard your Hurley Bitters high
ly spoken of, and tried a bottle, with little faith in it
before I commenced, and, to my surprise and joy, be
fore I finished one bottle, X felt a great deal better,
and firmly believe that on one or two occasions it wae
the means of saving and prolonging my life. I con
scientiously recommend them to all sufferers as the
best Bitters known, and advise them always to ask for
Dr. T. A. Hurley’s, and have no other. You can use
this as you think proper, if it will benefit others.

This elegant combination possesses all the tonic

It should be taken in all cases when a gentle tonic im
