Georgia State Fair bulletin.
A arottlAB habit of body is absolutely essential
to physical health and clearness of intellect. Nor
ia this all. Beauty of person cannot co-exist with
an unnatural condition of the bowels. A free pas
sage of tho refuse matter of the system through
these natural waste pipes, is as necessary to the
parity of the body as tho free paasago of tho offal
of the city through its sewers is necessary to tho
health of its inhabitants.
i ia the primary canso of most of the
i of tho discharging organs, and one of its
: common res nits is constipation. This com-
| i being dangerous in itBelf, has many
disagreeable concomitants—such as an unpleasant
breath, a sallow skin, contaminated blood and bile,
hemorrhoids, bcadacho, loss of memory, and gener
al debility.
Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters remove all these evils
by removing their immediate canso in the digestive
organs, and regulating tbs action of the intestines.
Tho combination of properties in this celebrated
preparation is ono of its chief merits. It is not
merely a stimulant, cjffip tonic, or an anti-bilious
agent, or a nervine,or a blood depnrent, ora cathar
tic, bnC\ll these curative elements judiciously blend
ed In one powerful restorative. It lends activity
and vigor to tho inert and enervated stomach, re
lieves tbo alimentary canal of its obstructions, and
gives tone to the membrane wlnich lines it, gently
stimulates the liver, braces tho nerves, and choers
tbo animal spirits. No other remedy possesses such
a variety of hygienic virtues. It is to these charac
teristics that it owes it prestige as a household medi
cine. Experience has proved that it is as harmless
aa it fa efficacious, end hence it b as popular with
tbo weaker sex as with the stronger.
Hostetler's Stomach Bitten b sold in bottles on
ly, and the trade-mark blown in tho glass and en
graved on the label, with our steel engraved revenue
stamp over tbo cork, b the test of genuineness.

Ox tut Track.—The engineers and laborers at the
Laboratory are now at work on the track to be used
for testing the speed and bottom of horses. It
will be a circuit of a mile precisely; will lie well
and be prepared in the best manner. The stand
and amphithetre will occupy nearly a central posi
tion inside the track, and from them a horse csr, be
seen at any point while moving around it. The ar
rangement for an ample supply of water is also
being pnshed forward, and will, when completed,
be sufficient to supply all demands for water that
may be made.
While on the grounds yesterday, wo noticed a
pretty strong forco at work under the immediate
supervision of Mr. Robert Cunningham, and in
about a fortnight, wo think, he will have the race
track completed, and a beautiful ono it will be. We
were assured by an active and prominent member
of tho Executive Committee who was present, that
the work of preparation for the Fair will, from this
time forward, be pushed along with all possible dis
patch, and he expressed no doubt that all the pre
parations which tho Committeo propose to mako
will be completed in time for tho great exhibition.
As the time approaches for this great affair, the
interest of the people of the State and country
seems to increase, and already tho proprietors of
onr hotels are receiving daily application for rooms
daring Fair week. A gentleman who came up from
Eufaula on Friday last, and is well posted in the
affairs of his section of Alabama and the senti
ments of the people, told ns yesterday that five
hundred persons from Enfaula and surrounding
country would be here at the Fair. Every day we
have indications that there will be in Macon at that
time even a larger number of persons than we
at first conjectured, and it behooves all of us to be
patting our houses in order and making preparations
for their reception. If every citizen will do the
best he can toward making the Fair a grand and
brilliant success, it will be such, and the fame of
Macon and her people will be sounded throughout
the length and breadth of the land, by the thousands
of visitors when they return to their homes, in all
quarters of the country. Onr reputation as a re
fined, hospitable, and spirited people are at stake in
this matter, and it must be fully and gloriously

Heavy Business.—In order to meet the pressing
demand for transportation, Mr. Hart P. Smith.
Master of Transportation on the Southwestern
Railroad, is now running four freight trains, instead
of two, as heretofore. The reader can, therefore,
form some ides of the immense business which this
road ia now doing. This demand for transportation
extends to all the railroads connected with Macon,
and the business on each is now of extraordinary
dimension. The Central and Macon and Western
| roads are now bringing through very heavy freight
bills each trip, and in order to meet tho emergency
it was absolutely indispensable to double teems on
the Southwestern road. .

from time to time having recourse to some reme
dial agent, which would effectually arrest the fur
ther progress of disease, and render tho system

tunately too trne—there are thousands who sink
into an early grave—whereas at a trifling expense
they might havo iivod to a good old age. If there
be reliance to be placed in medicine, and thousands
of well attested cases establish beyond the possi
bility of a doubt, tho curative properties of any ons
particular remedy, then nuriey's Sarsaparilla and

With ballets made of lead,

To get her poor dog a bone,

So she give him a Buck-Eye Machine!

All the bread and cheese I got, I laid upon the shelf.
But now I am a married man, I, I, I, I mean—
My wife bothers me to death for a Buck-Eye Sewing

Here the Local fainted, and we sent to John
Griffin’s drag store for some paregoric to bring him
back to life.
A Physician whose skill can bo relied upon is a
lessing to any community. This ia eminently true
of Dr. Hunter, of Louisville, Kentucky, who treats
all private and special diseases with unparalleled
success. The Doctor has made private and chronic
diseases the study of his life, and from his large
practice, which extends throughout the whole of the
great South and West, most have acquired great
skill and treatment. Any one so desiring, by call
ing at the doctor's office or sending a full statement
of their disease by mail, will receive’ his opinion as
to its nature, probabilities of a core, time required,
expense, etc., free of charge. We doubt if anyphy
sician in America, having so large a practice, makes
so liberal an offer. Read what he says in his pam

bales are the limits of the estimated number of
bales to be received at Columbus. Cotton along
tho river is little affected, the weather being
suited to it A rain would greatly add to the
yield of the uplands. The continued drought
is injuring all on the sandy lands. Buyers say
this season's cotton is tho prettiest they have
seen in a long period. Enough corn has been
raised to supply hpme needs until Spring. Time
will show. H'gh prices have had somethig to

SIX GREAT REMEDIES

WORTHY or ATTEXYKOnr.
To Dr. Thos. A. Hurley i
I hereby certify that daring last year I was attack-
el with the Ague 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 large doses— frequently as high as sixty
grains per day, and which must have cost me nearly
$100. I consulted Dr.fcmith, of Louiivillc, 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, extre uely exhausted,
and pronounced with enlarge Liver and Spleen. About
this time the advertisement af Hurley’s Ague Ionic
appeared in a city paper, and I determined to give it
a trial. I did so, and have no reason to regret it.
One bottle restored me completely, and since that time

Hurley’s Sarsaparilla is what it is represented, and
I believe it the most wonderful medicine before the
public. Nothing under the heavens could induce me
to say so without proof of the strongest and surest
kind; therefore I speak willingly and positively on
the subject.
My danghter has been afflicted with skin disease
and stiffncsi of the joints for several years. I em
ploy c<l-the principal physicians of the city and they
could not cure her. I gave her your Sarsaparilla,
not expecting it wou’d do much good, but to my great
astonishment she rapidly got well, and thank God
continues so. Usd shebeen taking any medicine I
would not give this certificate; but your Sarsaparilla,
the only remedy employed, leaves no doubt of its
medical qualities, ana thatttalnne cured her.

GssTGpfX.v; This is to certify that I havo been for
yean? a suUcrer, and have tried all the tonics I have
heard of or ?een advertised, with little or ro 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, I felt a great deal better,
and firmly believe that on one or two occasions it was
the means of saving and prolonging my life. 1 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, it it will bcneCt others.

This elegant combination possesses ail the tonic
properties of Peruvian Bark and Iron, without the
disagreeable taste and bad effects of either, separately
or in other preparations, of these valuable medicines.
It should be taken in all cases when a gentle tonic im

debilitating diseases, or in those distressing irregular
