A REGULAR HABIT OF BODY
la abapluteiy essential to physical health and clear-
, Of intellect. Nor is this all. Beauty of per-
. son cannot co-exist with unnatural condition of the
bowels. A free passago of the refuse matter of the
•' system through these natural waste-pipes is as nec-
i css ary to the purity of tho body as the free passage
j Of tho offal of a city through its sewers is necessary
J to the health of its inhabitants.
f Indigestion ia the primary cau.-o of most of the
diseases of tho discharging organs, and one of its
• moat common results is constipation. This com-
plaint, bcsidos being dangerous in itself, has many
di.'sgroeablo concomitants—such as an unpleasant
breath: a sallow skin, contaminated blood and bile,
hemorrhoids, headache, loss of memory, and gen
eral debility.
HOSTETLER'S STOMACH BITTERS rcraovo all
these evils by removing their immediate cause in
tho digestive organs, and regnlating tho action of
tho Intestines. The combination of properties in
this celt 1 rated preparation is one of its chief mer
it*. It is not merely a stimulant, or a tonic, or an
anti-bilious agent, or a norvine, or a blood depur-
ent, or a cathartic, hut all these curative dements
jndieionaly blended in ono powerful restorative. It
lends activity and vigor to tho inert and enervated
atomacb, relieves tho alimontsjy canal of its ob
structions, and gives tone to the membrane which
line* it, gently stimulates tho liver, braces tho
nerves, and choers the animal spirit*. No other
remedy poesesaee such a variety of hygienic virtues.
It is to tbeso characteristics that it owes its prestige
as a household modieino. Experience has proved
that it is as harmless as it is efficacious, and hence
it is as popular with tho weaker box as with the
stranger.
HOSTETLER'S STOMACH BITTERS is sold in
bottle* only, and tho trade-mark blown in tho glass
ank engraved on tho label, with our steel engraved
revenuo stamp over the cork, is tho test of genu
ineness. Be ware of counterfeits.

I Physician whoso skill can bo relied upon is &
aaing to any community. This is eminently truo
Dr. Hunter, of Louisville, Kentucky, who treats
private and special diseases with unparalleled
*>eaa. Tho Doctor has made private and chronic
sases tho study of his life, and from his large
LOtice, which extends throughout the whole of the
■at South and West, must have acquired groat
II and treatment. Any one so desiring, by ca’.l-
; at tho doctor^ office or sending a full statement
their disease by mail, will receive his opinion as
,ta nature, probabilities of a cure, time required,
vnse, etc., free of charge. Wo doubt if any pby-
ian in America, having so large a prac'iee, makes
liberal an offer. Bead what ho says in his pam-

AD THESE LIXeSRd PONDER THEM WELL
rho best tes(9 of the merits of my proprietary
ielo is to ascertain what is thought of it at home
ere it is manufactured. Such a test Lippman's
rafugo can well stand, as to-day it is decidedly
, favorite remedy for chills and fever, dumb ague
1 other diseases of a malarious origin, in the city
Savannah where it is prepared. Tho principal
iggtsta of the city would as much think of doing
hont castor oil in their stores as to bo without
a popular (and deservedly so) remedy. It ia a
'stable preparation free from deleterious drugs,
1 acts as a tonic upon the entire- system, thereby
igorating the system, so much so as to enable it
throw off disease. Pyrafuge does not nauseate
sicken the patient, and can be taken by the most
icato persons without fear. If should always be
hand, as chills and fever creep upon us so
althily that wo are not aware of its approach un
it is upon ns. A word to the wise is sufficient.—

f U. 8. CoxMissioNrm's Conn.—Court met at 10
o clock yesterday forenoon pursuant to adjourn
ment, and after the Marshal had commanded silence
and order, Hon. H. 8. Fitch, of Savannah, on the
pait of W. B. Johnson et al, Cuban patriots, pro
ceeded to read various points of law in support of
his motion, on the day before, to discharge the par
ties, as they had been arrested beyond the jurisdic
tion of this Court, and there was no authority here
to hold the prisoners, or to hear and determine upon
the charges against them.
Col. Jno. B. Weems, on the part of the govern
ment, replied at somelength, and insisted that as
the accused had committed an offence against tho
laws of the United States and not against the laws
of Georgia ; this Conrt. as a conrt of tho general
Government, for tho Southern District of Georgia,
dul have tho right to hear and determine the matter
now before it.
Col. Jno. Milledge, U. S. District Attorney, fol
lowed in justification of the act of the U. S. Mar
shal in arresting the prisoners wherever they might
bo found, on land or sea, within the jurisdiction of
tho United States. The parties wer© not arrested
in Eufaula, Ala., without authority. They were ar
rested by authority of this Court and under a war
rant from it as a legal power of the Government.
Hon. n. S. Fitch then replied to the arguments of
Cols. Milledge and Weems at considerable length
and with great learning, logic and power, insisting
upon it, that this Court was one of limited jurisdic
tion ; if not, where did Its limit extend and where
begin ? Ho submitted the question.
Tho Court ruled that the arrest of the prisoners
at Eufaula, by tho United States Marshal was valid,
to all intents and purposes, and cited authority for
its action in ordering the arrest. This decision set
tled for the timo the case of the Atlanta prisoners.
The Conrt then proceeded to an examination of
tho case of the United States rs. John Pnryear. for
a violation of tho Neutrality L&wg, and tho follow
ing witnesses were examined : ; Sg®
Edward Strohecker, jr., sworn, says : I know John
Puryear; had an interview with him at tho Lanier
House two weeks ago, relative V> going out to Cuba,
lie said lie was a recruiting offi-er. and was author
ized to give $35 per month to all enlisted men.
There were five or six present. I accepted the offer
and volunteered to join the expedition against tho
Cuban authorities.
Cross Examined : We were down stairs in tho sit
ting room of the Lanier House. Mr. Freeman and
Mr. Wyche were present. I don’t know who intro
duced me to Mr. Puryear. I asked him what was
intended to be done; he said it waa a fillibustering
expedition. He said tho $3.7 would lie j aid m gold,
but said nothing about bounty. He got me to raise
a company. I raised somo fifty or sixiy. I re
ceived no money ; was not to receive any until wo
were on board the steamer. I saw no arms or ac-
coutrements ; made tho affidavit on which Mr Fur-
year was arrested. Am a citizen of tho United
States.
J. 8. Yowls, Hwom, says : I know Mr. Puryear;
have seen him in presence of last witness; never
heard any promises made by Mr. Pnryear; met him
at my hoarding house : ho told me he was bound for
Cuba, and that I should have tho same inducements
ho possessed.
Cross Eraruincd by U. S. Counsel: Ho stated ho
was to command a company of partizan rangers,
and said that all competent young men would re
ceive good positions. Ho offered me no pay, if I
agreed to go.
Be-examined by Counsel for defence: Was not an
Hero tho Counsel turned to Mr. Strobockr r, asked
him if ho over xnado out a muster rolL To which
Mr. Strohecker replied: I h&vo sir; the company
was to be called Company H, when wo got to Cuba.
Tho list of namos I saw had its caption or heading.
“List of Company II,” nothing more; don't know
what become of tho list; would not know a copy of
tho muster roll if it was in court to-day.
James S. Freeman, sworn, says: Know Mr. Puf-
year; was not present at LanieV Ifpuso when Mr,
Strohecker was Introduced; I was never offered any
inducements to Join the expedition. Mr. Stroheck
er asked mo to join; I have never been arrested;
have never signed my namo to any military con-
trnrt.
Percy Clancy, sworn, says : Hoard Mr. Puryear
say $35 per month was offered to recruits; never
received a dime. I put my name down to go, but
had a private conversation with my father, who
advised mo not to go. Ho said we would all be
brought back, and I determined then not to go.
Cannot tell whether I was regularly enlisted or not,
did not hear any one say tho Cul^an government
would pay for onr services, that I remember; my
namo was signed for mo with my consent.
Court adjourned till o'clock p. M.
Afternoon Proceedings.—Tho Court convened
at 3 p. xc—attendance as compared with that of tho
morning rather slim. The Marshal called those
present to order and commanded silence, when
Hon. Henry S. Fitch, counsel for the accused, pro
ceeded to argue tho case. He strongly maintained
tho point, and cited numerous passages of law in
support of it, that no enlistment can bo made un
loss accompanied by an oath of alkgianco to the
government abont to be served ; that a mere enroll
ment of a recruit does not constitute enlistment;
tho recruit must sign his name to tho articles of en
listment with his own hand, or it must be done with
his personal consent and knowledge and in his pres
ence. In tho case now before the Court nothing of
the sort had been done and, consequently, the pros
ecution was without a case. The learned and elo
quent gentleman was extremely sarcastic and scath
ing in his remarks upon the character of the testi
mony given, by Mr. Strohecker.
Col. Weems followed m behalf of tho prosecution,
claiming that the accused had so clearly, palpably
and openly violated the Neutrality Laws, (a portion
of which ho read) that the Court must bind the ac
cused over to the United States District Court, to
answer for the offence.
At the close of Col. W.’a argument Commissioner
Morrill announced that his decision would bo re
served until this morning at 10 o’clock, whereupon
the Marshal adjourned the Court rill that hour.
Runaway.—We have all heard of the bull in a
china shop, and yesterday we had a horse in a
crockery store. A Mr. Gates, from the country, had
etopped his horse on Cotton Avenue to replace the
bridle bit which had fallen out of the horse’s month
and while doing so, something frightened the ani
mal and he ran away, smashing the baggy to which
ho was attached, and, breaking loose from it, dashed
down Cotton Avenue and then up Second street.
He first attempted to run into Wing’s jewelry store,
but was frightened back, when he ran on up Second
etreet to Cherry and, dashing across the latter,
darted into B. A. Wise A Co.’s crockery and house-
famishing store, next door to this office. He ran
through the entire length of the building and was
stopped only by the closed door in the rear. Imme
diately around where he stopped and sitting on the
floor waa a large quantity of crockery ware, but,
strange to say, not a piece was broken. He stepped
around and among the plates and dishes very like
we have seen blind men dance among and over eggs
in a c reus ring, and never smatb one with their
feet. Tho affair prodneed the greatest sensation
wo have seen on Cherry street since Wise received
his late heavy importation from Europe.
An Execrable Wretch —A mean white wretch,
named Donalson, a day or two since, in Atlanta, en
ticed a poor white woman, with several children, to
break up house-keeping in that city, sell her fum>
ture, and come to this city or neighborhood, and he
wonld give her a good home and her children lucra
tive employment in picking ont his cotton. The
woman took the scoundrel’s advice, and placed in
his hands the proceeds of the sale of her furniture,
and on reaching this city, tho day before yesterday,
her betrayer deserted her, and went off on the
Brunswick Railroad yesterday morning, leaving the
poor woman and her children here among strangers,
and without a dollar. She stated her cane to the
city authorities, and officer Pridgen left yesterday
afternoon in pursuit of the inhuman dog.
Cotton Receipts.—Yesterday morning’s Colum
bus freight train brought through for Savannah 153
bales of cotton, and for Macon 2G.

General Remarks.—Barring the scarcity of mo
ney. we have to report a very good wholesale and
jobbing trade in this city for the first week of our
j commercial year. But fot the scarcity of money re-
! ferred to. the trade would have been considerably
I larger; but, nevertheless, it was unusually good.
owiDg to the great activity in the cotton market,
which market is the barometer of trade at the South.
Our merchants, in all branches of business, have
been uuusually busy the past week in receiving new
goods, and in a short while they can boast of as
large and well assorted stocks as can be found in the
State. *
Financial.—We have still no change to note in the
condition of the money market. It continues strin
gent, as the rapidly increasing crop of cotton ab
sorbs every surplus dollar in the hands of capitalists,
and the banka are not yet prepared to make ad
vances. With the exception of a slight advance in
the buying and selling rates of gold, we have no
change to make in financial quotations.
The stock and bond market is perfectly flat. No
demand. Quotations unchanged.
Cotton.—Receipts to-day 582 bales ; sales 89;
shipped 182.
Receipts for tho week ending this evening 1363
bales; Bales for same time 1072; shipments 1244.
Receipts for the first eight days of September.
1S63. amounted to 252 bales : receipts for the same
time, 1869, amount to 2052 bales.
The market during the week ending this evening
has been firm and active on a basis of 30 cents for
middlings. Today, however, the demand was checked
j under the unfavorable market reports from New
York and Liverpool, and the market cloeed very
qniet at 30 cents, nominal, for middlings.

which RadcUff was killed on the spot, and Isles was
so badly ent tip with a knife as to leave no hope
that he will recover.
It appears that RadcUff. awhile hack, had applied
to Isles for a situation in the shop, and the impres
sion was made upon hie mind that he would, proba
bly. get it. But he was subsequently informed that
ho could not get the situation. This incensed Rad-

Plymouth, Pa., September 0.—A fire broke
out this morning in the flue and bottom shaft
owned by the Delaware Lackawanna and West
ern Company, in this place, and in a short time
the whole breaker and outbuildings were in
flames, and the hoisting apparatus, the only
avenue for escape for the miners, destroyed.
All efforts to stay the flames were unavailing,
and the whole strncture fell, filling np the shalt.
Over two hundred men are in the shaft and have
no communication ont. with no chance for air,
as the only way for getting air into the shaft was
through the main opening, and that was filled
with burning timbers and the debris of flames.
It is feared that the whole number have been
suffocated by the smoke or perished for the
want of air»
Tho fire departments of Scranton, Wilkes-
barre and Kingston are playing streams down
the shaft, for the purpose of qnenching the fire,
so that the rubbish can be cleared ont and the
condition of the men ascertained. It will prob
ably take till to-morrow morning before tidings
can be received from them. The scene is
heartrending. Families are congregated in
great numbers. Miners from all parts of the
country are there at work, and merchants, and
in fact the whole population of the town, have
turned out to assist. The loss by the fire will
amount to about $100,000, partly covered by
insurance.
All the physicians of the vicinity had been
summoned to attend, when the condition of the
men had been ascertained. The affair has cast
a gloom upon the whole community, and busi
ness is almost entirely suspended. The miners
only resumed work to-day. after a suspension of
three months. Among the men in the mines is
Mr. Hughes, the Superintendent.
10 a. m. After the rnbbish from the bottom
of the shaft was cleared away, two men de
scended in a bucket and sent word up to send
down a pick and shovel to clear the doors with.
The bucket was brought up and two men started
down with the tools. As they started, the men
at the bottom requested them to hnrry. and on
reaching the bottom both were fonnd dead. No
hopes are entertained for the men in the shaft.
All are snpposed to have perished. The black
damp is very bad here.
