A REGULAR HABIT OF BODY
Is absolutely esncntial to physical health and clear-
nens of intellect. Nor is this alL Beauty of per-
Bon cannot co-exist with unnatural condition of the
bowels. A free passage of the refuse matter of the
system through these natural waste-pipes is as nec
essary to the purity of the body as the free passage
of the offal of a city through its sewers is necessary
to the health of its inhabitants.
Indigestion is the primary causo of most of the
diseases of tho discharging organs, and one of its
most common results is constipation. This com
plaint, besides being dangerous in itself, has many
disagreeable concomitants—such as an unpleasant
breath; a sallow skin, contaminated blood and bile,
hemorrhoids, headache, Iohb of memory, and gen
eral debility.
HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS remove all
these evils by removing their immediate cause in
tho digestive organs, and regnlating the action of
the intestines. Tho combination of properties in
this celebrated preparation is ono of its chief mer-
its. It is not merely a stimulant, or a tonic, or an
anti-bilious agent, or a nervine! or a blood depur-
ont, or a cathartic, but all these curativo elements
Judiciously blended in one powerful restorative. It
lends activity and vigor to the inert and enervated
stomach, relieves tho alimentary canal of its ob
structions, and gives tono to the membrane which
linos it, gently stimulates tho liver, braces the
nervflM', and cheers the animal spirits. No other
remedy possesses snch a variety of hygienic virtues.
It in to these characteristics that it owes its prestige
as a household medicine. Experience has proved
that it is as harmless as it is efticacious. and hence
it is as popular with the weaker sex as with the
stronger.
HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS is sold in
bottjes only, and tho trade-mark blown in the glass
ank engraved on tho labal. with our steel engraved
rovenuo stamp over tho cork, is tho test of genu
ineness. Beware of counterfeits.

TUESDA Y MORNING, SEPTEMBER 7, 18G9.
Price op Cotton.—We notice in the Savannah
Republican of Saturday, that planters are complain-
ing that tho Savannah cotton buyers are not paying
enough for cotton, in proportion to prices in New
\ ork and Liverpool. Planters admit that the price
paid in Savannah is highly remunerative to the pro
ducer, but still it is not as high as it should be, if
regulated by New York and Liverpool prices, as
there is nearly three cents per pound difference be
tween the New York and Savannah markets. For
mentioning this fact some one rapped the knuckles
of the editor, and intimated that tho publicity of
such facts were calculated to damage the commer
cial interests of the town. The editor then floors
his assailant by stating that tho fact was patent and
known to everybody, and if tho cotton buyers want
ed to Hustain the Savannah market, they could only
do so by paying & liberal price, as compared with
eastern and Eropean markets.
We have hoard similar complaints about the Ma
con market, during tho last week or ten days, but it
could not well be avoided, as there has been a great
scarcity of money here for a few weeks past; and,
then, new cotton loses much in weight, and every
body has been looking for a decline in price, both at
New York and Liverpool, every day for a fortnight
pa«t. Still if there had been plenty of money here,
we are assured that prices would have ruled a half
cent per pound higher. Last year tho Macon cotton
buyers paid most lil>eral prices and they will, under
similar circumstances, do tho same the present
season. •
The Fair Grounds.—Wo rodo ont, last evening,
to tho Laboratory, to see what progress lia« been
made during tho last fortnight, in the work of pre
paring the grounds for tho great exhibition in No
vember, and were gratified to notice that the work
is pushing along with commendable zeal and energy.
As yet tho workmen have been confined exclusively
to the grounds, as there was, at tho start, a vast
deal of grubbing andcloaring up to bo done. When
tho grounds shall have been properly cleared up and
smoothed off, the work of erecting an amphitheatre
will begin, and from this timo forth wo may expect
to sco whatever preparations for tho Fair that aro
to bo made, entered upon with spirit and haste, as
there is now no time to lose. Two months will soon
pass, and without well directed effort and energy,
the necessary work can hardly bo accomplished. In
addition to tho labor which tho grounds will require
to put them in proper order, it will consume some
timo to put up an engine in tho main building for
tho trial and running of machinery, and for putting
tho house in order for the exhibition of all kinds of
agricultural implements, machinery, fabrics, etc., to
say nothing of tho thousand and one little things
which will continually spring up to claim tho atten
tion of the workmen, which aro now not thought of.
Hurry up things, gentlemen of tho Executive Com
mittee : there is not an hour to lose.
Scarcity of Water.—Tho proprietor of a saw-mill
down on tlte Macon and Brunswick railroad, in
formed us on Saturday last, that bis mill had been
running on short water rations for several weeks
past, and that tho wells in tlC neighborhood were
about dried up. Portion who live in tho neighbor
hood of bin mill and liavo been living there for tho
last thirty years, say they never before saw such a
scarcity of water in that section as thero is now.
Owing to this serious inconvenience tho proprietors
of tho mill have been unable to fill their contracts
for lumber, in this city, at tho timo agreed upon,
and it was on thia score that tho work on tho new
stores on Cherry street has been suspended for tho
last two or tlireo weeks.
Cat.i. soon. The Bnck-F.ve.s~ like time and tide-
wait tor no man.
The Boxxdayb of 1869.—It is a remarkable fact,
of which we liavo heretofore seen no mention made,
that tho holidays of tho year I860, fall either on
Sunday, or tho days immediately preceding or fol
lowing it. thereby connecting tho holidays with a
day of rest. Tho Fourth of July fell on Sunday,
and tho nation generally, celebrated it on Monday—
thus affording laborers two days of rest instead of
one. Tho Jewish Now Year, 5630, feli on Monday,
(yesterday,) and as that, people in our midst gen
erally observe tho Christian Sunday; their places of
business have been closed for the last two days.
Next Christmas falls on Saturday and, of course, a
holiday and a day of rest again run together.
When or in what year will such a tiling again oc
cur?

A Sad Accident.—On Saturday afternoon last, a
bright-eyed and promising little son of Col. Speer,
of Sumpter county, aged about twelve years, went
into the mule pasture and. picking up a switch, went
behind a mule and struck it. No sooner luwl he
done so, than tho mule kicked him on the head,
from tho effects of which the unfortunate littlo fel
low died in less than two hours. Col. S. and family
have our most sincere sympathy in their borcavo-
ment.
Corn.—Coni is advancing rapidly in this market
under tho very unfavorable advices from tho corn
crop in Tennessee and in the North-west. Our East
Tennessee exchanges say the crop has been cut
short this season to an alarming extent, and
will barely ho sufficient for homo consumption.
If such is tho fact, and we have no reason to doubt
it, Georgia planters will save money by pursuing a
very economical course with the little they have
raised. Corn is now stiff at $1 50 per bushel in tliis
market, an that, too, in tho shadow of the new crop,
and we undertake to say that on tho first of Juno
next, if onr reports aro correct, it will command
$2 00 per bushel in Macon. Look out!
Back Again.—Fifteen of the Cuban expeditionists
returned yesterday, in chargo of United States offi
cers, and wero m&rclied from the passenger shed to
tho Brown House, where tboy took supper. Their
cases will be investigated to-day, as we understand,
before U. S. Commissioner, W. C. Morrill. Among
tho number of prisoners, wo noticed several young
men from this city and Atlanta. We hope they will
soon be set at liberty, and that tho lesson they have
learned in the last ten. days will be of benefit to
them. They were captured at Eufaula.

Jewish New Year.—Yesterday was generally ob-
served in thin city by tho Israelites, as a holiday and
tne beginning of a new year in their calendar. All
the business houses of this class of our population
were closed, and in consequence the city had a very
quiet Sunday-like appearance.

The Bcck-Eyb.—Benton, tho buckeye “Poick,"
has stopped rhyming and is now taxing his brain to
invent an appendage to his sewing machines* where
by they may be made to use to advantage the thread
of a discourse.
More Buck-Eyes have arrived.
Ctoa* ExrzDmnoRB.—These organixvtioM
•hont which there has been so much tmtv m <>»■
community for the last fortnight, have been dis
banded and the members have all returned to their
bomee, except a few who have fallen into the h*nd*
of the authorities. There is no reliable evidence,
we understand, against those under bond, and we
hope they will all be permitted to depart to their
homes in peace, and the sensation be permitted to
quietly dio out.
The story in circulation hero on Saturday last, to
the effect that the leaders of the expedition were
tieing those members, in whom they had little con
fidence. to prevent them from deserting, or return-
ing to their homes, was. we are assured, a mere fab
rication. without a word of truth in iU There was
no compulsion used to retain a person, or undne
solicitations used in getting recruits ; and they were
left perfectly free to act as they pleased.
Mayor’s Court.—His Honor's morning levee was
rather livlier yesterday than usual, and those who
danced attendance had been having a lively time the
day before, in that a majority of the offenders had
participated in opening the fall fights. The first
pair of the belligerents called up was of the femi
nine gender, colored persuasion—Silvio and Julia
Ruse. They had been engaged in a prettv severe
wool-palling. It was shown that Julia was to blame
and it cost her $5.
Dave Bruce and Wm. Edmondson were then
hauled up for the same offence. The testimony was
against William, and it cost him just $5.
Mary Russell and L. Field, another sable pair of
Jnnos, had engaged m a rip-tearing big fight on
Sunday, in which both were to blame. Hia Honor
allows no such behavior on the Sabbath, and each of
the game hens were find 810 or guardhouse ten
days.
A cof-e of drunk and disorderly was dismissed and
the Court adjourned.
Cotton Receipts.—Sunday morning’s 4:43 Colum
bus freight train brought forward IOC bales of cot
ton consigned to Savannah and 41 bales for Macon.
The 5:35 p. m. Eufaula freight train of yesterday
afternoon brought forward 157 bale for Savannah
and 76 for Macon—making tho receipts since Satur
day last stand thus:
Savannah 263
Macon ....117
The 4:43 a. m. Columbus freight train, on yester
day, brought forward 124 bales for Savannah and 7
for Macon ; and the 5:35 r. m. Eufaula freight train
brought up 175 bales for Savannah and 130 for Ma
con—making tho total receipts yesterday stand:
Savannah, 299; Macon, 137 bales.
Several cars on the Southwestern road yesterday,
loaded with cotton, could not be brought up for
want of transportation. The cotton now brought
forwaal on this road is mainly from Eufanla, Al
bany, and Americus, and not from the producers’
hands.
A Bully Fireman.—The fireman who went down
on the special train Saturday afternoon to attend tho
negro campmeeting at Traveler’s Rest, got into a
little scrimmage with an overseer of the road and a
negro, no soon fanned out the negro, and tho
overseer taking it lip, the fireman went for him also,
and in less than two minutes cleaned ont both.
Those who witnessed tho tournament say it was the
liveliest affair of the meeting.
The only licensed hand shuttle machine sold for

Vast quantities of money aro annually sent
out of the South for foreign fertilizers. A dis
covery has been made, which wo hope will re
sult in retaining the most of this annual ex
penditure at home, thus adding greatly of the
Available resources of the South. It has re
cently come to light that there are, in the caves
of Lookout Mountain, Tennessee, immense
quantities of bat guano, which analysis has
proved to be superior to the Peruvian. These
caves, of which there are eleven in iramber, have
been infested, for probably hundreds of years,
by millions of bats, which have hatched, lived
and died there without ever seeing the light.—
The deposits that have accumulated from them
are said to be almost inexhaustible. Ono of
these caves alone is twenty-one miles in length.
This guano has been tested on vegetation with
the happiest effect. Besides stimulating the
plant, it is said to act as an effectual safeguard
against worms and bugs. It contains a large
per cent, more of ammonia than tho Peruvian
article, and is pronounced more valuable by
those who have tried l»oth. Wo saw some of
this product yesterday at tho commission house
of Messrs. Leo A Taylor, and on smelling, found
tho ammonia in it nearly as strong as in harts
horn.
Tho caves are owned by five Confederate sol
diers, who purchased them for fivo hundred
dollars, and their means aro too limited to per
mit them to work them on tho scale that their
importance demands. They therefore, we learn,
desire to disposo of an interest in them to pro
cure capital with which to enlarge their opera
tions. The secret was discovered by a nitre
agent of the Confederacy daring the war, and
communicated to one of the present ownors.

A Ste\m Omnibus.—A new steam omnibus has
been tried in Edinburgh. The engine, with an
omnibus attached, was run up and down an in
cline to exhibit its speed and the ease with
which it could be controlled. It went up the
hill at the rate of seven miles an hour, and
came down it at tho rAte of nine. It turned in
the road with far greater ease than if drawn by
horses, was pulled up instantaneously at
tho word of command, and even backed
up hill. Tho dexterity with which it
picked its way between strings of cart
horses,. omnibuses, and cabs, and the do
cility with which it stopped or turned whenever
it was required were marvelous. It ran from
pne end of Prince street to the other without
stopping, then turned down South Charlotte
street, and on through North Charlotte street to
Forrest, where at the steepest point, when tho
descent looked really danger<ms, it was brought
to a sudden standstill, to show how completely
it was under command, and how entirely it
could dispense with any kind of break.
The English Harvests.—Early in the year
the English croakers began to predict a general
failure of crops, owing to heavy rains and other
causes. As the season advanced, the prospects
improved so rapidly as to lead many to infer
that the harvests would be more prolific than
any timo since 1859. Sufficient is now known
upon which to base an estimate. There is con
siderable variety in the reports on wheat, but
they mainly come to this, that while the crop is
good in some places—usually on land not in ordi
nary years tho best for wheat—it is poor, as a
rule, and especially on the lands where the bulk
of tho crop is grown. Furthermore, while the
yield per acre will be less than usual, tho quali*
ty of the produce is very inferior.
To put it technically, the weight of the grain
per bushel will be considerably less. The su
periority of quality in the 1868 crop was reckon
ed to have added fivo per cent, or more to its
weight and worth, and the inferiority in the
present year will have a corresponding effect in
reducing the harvest value. Other cereals have
as a general thing, yielded more than an ordi
nary crop.
A thermometer which has been kept for 75
years in the vaults of the Paris Observatory, at
