Yesterday, when about half the edition of
the AVeejclt Tnxonarn was worked off, the big
press broke with a crash, and it will take a day
to mend it. About half onr subscribers will,
therefore, miss their papers, and we wish them
apprised of the cause as soon as possible. We
hope the rest of the edition can be printed and
forwarded to-day.
The Ntatc Fair.
The coming State Fair in Georgia, (says the
Colnmbun Sun and Times of the loth,) promises
to be, in all respects, the grandest exhibition of
the sort over held in the Sonth. It will reflect
great credit upon the State, and will exhibit her
recuperative powers, the energy of her people,
and her boundless resources. Years ago, on
such occasions, tho hotel accommodations and
hospitality of the people of Macon were inade
quate to entertain tho crowds, and this time
food and lodgings will bo in great demand. \Ye
make this timely notice to induce our people in
this section of the Staio to make preparations
for the event. In ovory community clubs should
be formed of thoso who desire to go. Camp
eqnipsgcs, provisions, cooking utensils, ser
vants, and all necessaries should bo provided
before hand. Wo want to seo Western Georgia
send a big delegation to this Agricultural Camp
meeting.
Negro Riot In Alabama.
The Montgomery papers chronicle a riot at
Wilson’s Station, on the Montgomery and En-
faula Railroad. Two negro men attacked Mr.
Charles McDade, and the latter killed one of
them with a knife. McDade then surrendered
himself, and while on trial before an examining
oonrt, the negroes broke up tho court, and by
last accounts held McDade and the sheriff be
leaguered in a bouse which they were threaten
ing to bnrn. Tho sheriff was anxionsly await
ing the arrival of a detachment of troops which
had been sent, to take him and his prisoner out
of the hands of the infnrinted Africans.

Extbaobmxaet Rzdcctios or Expenses.—
The Now Y'oric Tribune, of Satnrday, grows
happy over the thought that “the week of hor-
rors ends with tho brightest announcement wo
have been able to make this many a day. Our
dispatches from Washington assure us that the
forthcoming report of tho Treasurer of the
Unitod States will show that the expenditures of
tho government for tho late fiscal year were
$485,000,000 less than tho year before."
If this be true, what a vast amount of steal
ing Mr. Greeley’s party mnst have lieen doing
in tho last four years!—Sac.
Hon. A. H. STErireNs (says the Richmond
Dispatch) fills almost a page of the New Y’ork
World, of last Satnrday, with a reply to Mr.
George T. Curtis’ review of his book. He
makes Mr. Curtis and Tho World appear in a
bad light- They have fallen into the hands of
a giant, and ho seems to toss them abont as a
giant would pigmies.
Andrew Johnson Invited to Atlanaa.— A
portion of tho citizens of Atlanta held a meet
ing on Friday night, nnd appointed S. R.
McCamy, Mayor W. H. Hnlsoy, Colonel I. W.
Avery, Dr. Roach, J. T. Glenn, and Wm. M.
Lowrey a committee of invitation to invite ex-
Fresident Johnson to visit tho city of Atlanta,
and address its citizens on the situation of tho
political affairs of the United States.
The Mule and Hoo Market.—A lot of year
ling mules woro sold in Macon, Kentncky, last
week, at $125; another lot at $15.", and a lot
of two-year-olds at $123.33 porhead.
Men experienced in the hog trade think that
hogs in northwest Missouri will range from five
and a half to seven cents, live weight, this fall.
Intelligencer.
Cotton Crop or Pulaski.—Tho Dispatch says
that owing to the rust and drought in this seo-
tion, we are forced to the conclusion that tho
cotton crop will bo cut off at least ono half, and
corn in the same ratio. The second picking of
cotton will be small, the larger number of bolls
have been prematurely opened by the rust.
Bill Anp argues the Fress Excursion in a
letter to Mr. Grady, of tho Rome Courier. Tho
main question, says Bill, is “War the Excursion
n suksess?”
The New Era says ,- tho Republicans nro rap
idly extending their organizations in Portugal.”
We think that is the nighest point where they
arc meoting any success just now.
The Question of Reseating the Negro Mem
bers is very ably treated in two articles upon
onr first page.
Personal.—We were pleased to greet, on his
return from his trip to his birth-place in Penn-
aylvania, our old friend and lifetime Democrat,
Samuel Koockogey, better known as “Uncle
Sam." He is vastly improved in health, and,
though seventy-six years of age, is hearty
enough to ro-enlist for another war, like 1812,
in which he was a soldier. The old gentleman
was pleased to find, when he started to.return
home, that he was known to the steamboat,
hotel and railroad people. The steamer Tona-
wanda, would not allow him to pay passage,
nor the Scriven House board, or President
Wadley railroad fair, but he was treated by all
as an honored guest. We wish many years of
life and health to “Uncle Sam."—Col. Sun.
■•MlafMlIw Central EzeentfreCaM-
■aittee.
It will be notioed that the Democratic Central
Executive Committee failed to get a quorum at
the recently appointed meeting in Atlanta, on
tho 15th, and therefore no official action was
had npon any subject. If we may judge from
the telegTam, however, one of the subjects
which was thought to require the consideration
of the Committee was the insistence of some of
tho Democratic prints that an election for
members of Congress ouul.t to be held this
Fall.
Tho subject had been repeatedly brought
forward daring the year, and the Telegraph
had shown that tho election was impracticable;
that there was no law for it, and, in fact, it
was against the law as established by tho ordin
ance of tho Constitutional Convention, by
which, tho members elected in April, 1868,
were declared entitled to hold as if they had
been elected in the month of November fol
lowing.
It was also apparent from the action of the
Legislature that Legislation was deemed ne
cessary before such an election could be held,
as they had passed a bill for the purpose at the
heel of the session, which perished by lapse.—
But it seemed impossible to quiet the subject;
and we are glad, therefore, that the members of
the Committee took occasion to declare, infor
mally, the “unanimous opinion of the members
present that it is inexpedient to recommend the
election of members of Congress at this time,
there being no law authorizing such election till
November, 1870. The right of members elected
Apnl, J8C8, to be admitted to seats in the 41st
Congress, is a question to be determined by the
House of Representatives when they present
themselves for admission, and an expression of
opinion by this Committee is unnecessary.”
The proposition to tnm out our old friend
Judge Whittaker, might have failed also, for
the same reason—want of a quorum. Doubtless
he will exist in terror till the fatal moment ar
rives when a quorum meets. We hope he will
bo careful of himself—regulate his diet—end as
the pill-makers say “keep the bowels open and
the head cool j" and if he has any sins on his
conscience, confess and receive absolution,
against tho awful die* irae which awaits him.
Shocking Murder Near Columbia. — The
Phamix says: "A young woman, Eliza Boyer,
was found dead on Satnrday near a stream about
three and a half miles from the city. From
the marks npon her person it is supposed that
she had beeu outraged and then murdered. No
clue as yet has been discovered as to the perpe
trator of this foul act. The jury of inquest im
panelled by Coroner Thompson met, but have
not yet arrived at a decision. The po»t mortem
examination was made by Dr. R. W. Gibbes.—
Her head and face were wounded in several
places ; the skull fractured, and the neck also
showed marks of violence, which undoubtedly
caused death. "
Information from Bourbon county, Kentncky
is to the effect that Colonel Fry, who killed’
General Zollicoffer, was shot "and mortally
wounded by a citizen, on Tuesday, the 24 th of
August He had gone with two soldiers to
search a citizen’s house, and was told that if he
persisted in doing so he would be shot He
persisted in his determination, and was shot
with a common shot gun as he entered the gate.
The person who shot him ran throngh the
house, seized a horse and made his escape.
The Domestic Ills or Freedom,
An intelligent lady subscriber, living in a
neighboring county, appends the following to a
letter upon the subject of her subscription ac
count with the Daxlt Telegram. If we pre
serve her incog., the matter of publication will
be immaterial: *
Being on attentive reader of your paper, I
feel as if I were personally acquainted with
yon, and often feel as if I should like todiscuss
somo questions which arise therein. I coincide
with yon in your view of the dignity of labor,
a subject upon which much has been written
and spoken. I think the question was settled
in Genesis, when the corse was pronounced.
For my own part, I should much prefer my
fashionable acquaintances finding me in tho
parlor neatly attired. I never felt very digni
fied in the kitchen with a white apron on, and
anna bared to the elbow, kneading dongh, how
ever, I might have appeared. Scarcity of com
petent servants have forced me to the necessity
of a daily repetition, bnl I have never learned
to love it, nnd wonld leave it anytime to peruse
your interesting paper; yet I delight In looking
well to the “ways of my household,” but not
to the exclusion of literary pursuits.
Mr. Editor, this is dasignod for your perusal
alone. I am surprised that I have thus far tree-
passed on your valuable time, but that article
fioemed so apropos when it appeared, for I had
been revolving tho subject in my mind not one
hour before the caption struck my eye, and not
that alone, for distinction seems invidious, yon
keep well up with all the leading questions of
the day. and when I happen to hear anything
new in the political or scientiflcal world discuss
ed, I fully expect to seo some exposition in your
paper, and don’t think I have ever been disap
pointed. I know you have received many such
tributes from abler pens than this, but I hope
you will not despise this, penned in the hours
stolen from slumber by A Bust Woman.
Our friend, in this brief note, hss touched
upon what we hope will be the only permanent
evil result of tho abolition of slavery, so far as
the whites are concerned; and we aro sorry that
these evils fall, with peculiar gravity, upon her
sox olono. Emancipation extinguished the only
class of faithful nnd trustworthy domestics ex
isting in America—the servants bom in the
household and trained, generation after genera
tion, in domestic labor.
Every old family possessed on inestimable
treasure in these servants, and when onr North
ern invaders came flaunting the emancipation
proclamation and enjoining freedom and equal
ity, it was a grievous dsy to Southern house
keepers—it was an injury which noTer can be
repaired, for no money can now buy tho services
of good domestics in this land of liberty and
oquality.
The faithful and obedient Kate, and Celia,
and Dinah, tinder the fanatical impulses of the
time, came, in a week, to reflect the feelings of
the Milesian when he declared himself
good as anybody in America—yes, bo-gorra, an
a dem sight better.” Kate, who never in her
whole life had breathed a word of disrespect to
“missis," learned in a day to speak of her as a
“white woman,” and of herself ns a “colored
lady."
It was a day of great triumph to General
Howard, but a sad ono alike to sorvants and
mistresses. Where now aro Kate and Celia and
Dinah? Sam, tho coachman, and Toney, the
blacksmith and factotum of the plantation, and
Ike the driver, who married them under tirenm-
stances of much frosted care and splendor, took
them to town, quartered them in some squalid
lane for a few weeks, and then left them and
the children. Since then, maybe, they have
“taken up” with other Sams and Toneys and
Ikes, and drag ont a filthy, flaunting and irre
gular existence.
One, perchance, has gone- back to the old
plaoe and is a good servant again, and this is
fortunate for both mistress and domestic. But
we don’t know of but one occasion for Howard’s
Bureau again; and that is to sort ont the black
couples he married by platoons soon after peace
and mate them as before. This wonld bo as
difficult a business as Artemus Ward thinks it
will be to match the odd bones in the resurrec
tion. We should like to put Howard at it.
But the house being cleared of the old ser
vants by “emancipation,” what a time there’s
been since ? How much to learn, and how
much to hear 1 What industrions and constant
levies upon the little properties lying around
loose. How mysteriously have ribbons, collars,
cuffs, laces, under-clothing, pins, thread and
needles disappeared. What a total insensibility
to the rights of property has contested the palm
with the most absolute indifference to the duties
of the position!
Some, wearied ont, have tried “white ser
vants,” only to learn that this is no relief. The
complaint abont domestic service in the North
is greater than it is here. There is nothing in
the political, moral or material sitnation, which
encourages the subordination and docility neces
sary t.o the position. Good servants cannot be
found' short of Europe, because not short of
there exists a condition in which loss of place,
as a domestic in a respectable family, is a seri
ous misfortune. There is no other remedy or
course we can think of for onr good housewives
to pursue than that which onr correspondent
follows—exercise woman's wit to make the best
of the condition, and woman's patience and
labor to supplement deficiencies.
Neablt four thousand persons starved to
death in the great city of London last year, and
yet the amount of money raised for charitable
purposes in that city is enormous.
A New View orthe Political Situation.
A New York correspondent of the Louisville
Courier Journal, writing on the 7th, says,
I am going to tell you a secret New Eng
land is npon the verge of a general, bat per
fectly silent, political revolution. The six
Yankee States. Boston included, are preparing
to join the Democracy.
The negro no longer inspires the ardor of the
Puritan : there is danger of free trade ; there
is danger of repudiation. Sambo is thp friend
of both : and the fifteenth amendment is to be
employed by the Imperialists, the repudiators,
and the carpet-baggers—proclaiming free trade
and universal suffrage—as a precedent for re
ducing New England to a single State. New
England sees in the negro a wild cat upon its
hearth-rue. It looks to State sovereignty as its
solo salvation. It will in consequence swap
places and issues with Dixie.
The South, on the other hand, will become
the great centralizer. It will return to power
to find a lot of rascally legislation which it can
only bmsh away by a free use of the machinery
the Radicals have fabricated. The Radicals to
save themselves will resist with the doctrine of
State rights. A strong government will be the
consequence; centralization; repudiation; free
trade; universal suffrage; and a big ex-rebel
oligarchy. There is hope for Greece yet
\Vhv c ion’t yon quit yonr timorous, time-serv
ing philosophizing, and come out strong on the
new Democratic issue, with Bntier the Beast, as
the leader of the party ? You can’t theorize
Kentncky ont of her prejndicies. She got them
honestly. She will stick to them courageously.
Let her alone. Let tho fifteenth amendment
alone. Let tho nigger alone. Free trade is the
idea: and tmftrezaai suffrage—not negro suff
rage—is the slave alike of free trade and repu
diation. These accomplished, we will dismiss
Sambo. He will have served his purpose, and
wo will colonize him upon Cuba or the Dry Tor-
tngas.
This is the new party.
This tho fntnre.
This, victory.
Tbc Avondale Horror.
A horrible sensational story has been set afloat
by a correspondent of a New York paper, in
connection with the late coal mine disaster at
Plymouth, Penn. According to tho correspon
dent, on antagonism has existed in that section
for a year or two past between the Welsh miners
and those of the other nations, based upon the
partiality shown to the former in the way of
promoting them to fill most of the superior po
sitions around the mine. This antagonism has
developed itself in evidences of ill-feeling. The
Welsh have always been slow to strike, and in
the meetings' of the miners’ unions they have
nearly unanimously voted against the “basis,”
which is a term expressing an agreement among
the miners to strike whenever the coal fell, and
not work until it went above that figure again.
The other miners have mostly favored this mode
of proceeding, and the Welsh alone haver been
opposed to it Three months ago a meeting was
held, at which, after much debate, it was
agreed on all aides to strike. The shrike was
a failure, and the Welsh were more indig
nant than ever with those who led them
into the fruitless struggle to uphold the
“basis.” On Monday, the Gth instant, the men
of Avondalo mine went to work, and. according
to the story, threats were freely made against
them by the other miners for their timidity in
striking, when called npon to bold ont for any
length of time against the mino-owners. On
Monday morning last tho fnneral of a miner
was announced, to which all of the miners were
invited excepting tho Welsh. The story now
prevailing to some extent in the coal regions,
according to tho correspondent allndcd to is,
that when the Avondale miners went to their
work on Monday morning the wooden petition
in the aha ft was fired with kerosene oil by some
person standing in the tunnel, forty feet below
the top of the shaft, and the work of daatrne
lion thus began. To give color to this horrible
assumption of the mine being fired, one man
states that the brattice, (meaning the centre
portion of the shaft,) was less horned below
than above, and that if it were sot on fire from
the furnace in the mine the lower part wonld be
totally consnmed, and the upper would bo the
least affected. The story is altogether too hor-
riblo for credence.
Arnopos of the rumor that the Emperor's
confidenco in M. Nelaton is beginning to dimin
ish, the Figaro tells us how the great surgeon
first won his reputation at court. When the
Prince Imperial was so seriously ill some three
or four years ago, a consultation of Burgeons
was held to diagnose a certain inflammation of
tho articulations of the thigh. Nelaton said
there was an abccess, bat he was alone in bis
opinion. This difference was of tho highest
moment If there was an abscess, the knife
alone ootdd preserve the patient’s life; if there
was not, an operation might prove fatal. Nolo-
ton was allowed to have his way; the patient
was put under chloroform, and the surgeon took
ont his bistoury. The Emperor, who was stand
ing near the table, walked to the window, clasped
his bands, and began a vigorous tattooing with
his knncklcs. The knifo had reached tho neigh
borhood of the articulation with no result, and
the surgeons opposed in opinion to Nelaton be
gan to remind him of what they had said. The
Emperor walked up to him and seized his hand.
“Pardon, sire,” said Nelaton, removing his
hand, “there is an abscess,” and with one reao-
lnte push he buried the knife. A discharge
took plaoe, and the child was saved.

DISEASES OF THE LUNGS,
— B T— t
Dr. JAMES A. HUNTER,
OF NEW ORLEANS.
Main. Editor»— Sirs : The Inhaler and
Atomizer are instruments for the purpose of
making Local Applications of remedies for the
core of disease within the Throat, Larynx,
Bronchial Tubes and Lungs, are used by me as
auxiliary remedial agencies in all affections of
these parts. By means of the ikbauxo ccstru-
ment a medicated vapor of a mild soothing Ano
dyne or Alterative character, at a temperature
abont blood heat, is drawn into the longs, and
comes into contact with the diseased surfaces, al
laying irritation and quieting Cough; assisting the
expectoration of phlegm and matter,the accumu
lation of which gives patients, far advanced in
Consumption, so much distress; promoting the
healing of cavities formed by the breaking down
and expulsion of tubercular deposits, and, in
cases of Asthma or Phthisic, relaxing tho dis
tressing constriction abont the Chest, nnd cut
ting short, frequently, almost instantaneously
the paroxysm. In fact, it is the only means by
whichl havo everbeenableto cure Asthma. The
Therapeutics of Inhalation are not limited to
a few articles of tho Materia Medica, but com
prise some of the most valuable mineral, and
nearly all vegetable remedies known to Medical
men; and the intelligent physician who has de
voted a sufficient amount of attention to this
method of treatment, to learn the doses to bo
used, and their peculiar effects when adminis
tered in this manner, can select remedies to
meet any and all indications.
Many of the moat eminent physicians of both
Europe and America have devoted much of their
attention of lato years to Inhalation and Atomi
zation, and now employ them in all cases of dis
eases of the Throat and Lungs coming under
their care, and their use has been followed by
results hitherto unattained by any other means
of treatment.
Bat the effects of inhaled remedies are not
exclusively local. Many of them have a more
powerful and certain constitutional influence
than the same remedies administered by the
stomach. You have no donbt witnessed the in
halation of Sulphuric iEther, Chloroforms and
“ Laughing Gas,” and seen sensibility destroy
ed in the most distant parts of the body in a few
seconds by merely breathing a small amount of
the vapor—have seen the system aroused into
life from a death-like faint by inhaling ammo
nia from a common smelling bottle. These ore
some of tho familiar examples of the constitu
tional effects of inhalation. Many others could
bo given, such ns the baneful influence of “foul
air” in mines, caves, and tho badly ventilated
tenements of large cities. Also, the contraction
of infections diseases by breathing the emana
tions and pestiferous vapors that fill the rooms
of patients suffering from such diseases. I am
satisfied that Consumption is very frequently
communicated and contracted in this manner.
Sir Charles Sendamore, one of the most eminent
of English Physicians, had said of Medicated In
halation :
“For the sake of hmnanity, then, I recom-
“mend the treatment, and will repeat what I
“have said in , the preface to the work already
“mentioned. It is not on selfish gronnds I ad
vocate tho practice. What concerns my repu-
“tation is personal and transient, and of little
“moment; what relates to science and the in-
“tcrest of mankind is for silages, and of inesti-
“mablo importance.”—London Lancet.
It is not claimed that Inhalation will core all
cases of Consumption. Unfortunately, too
many come to me who are beyond tho hope or
assistance of any hand that is not omniponent,
or any remedy that is not a miracle, but what
is claimed for it is the power of arresting and
cnriDg diseases of the Lungs in stages beyond
the influence of any other remedy.
ATOIHZATION
Differs from Inhalation in this respect, that the
remedies are applied to the Throat, Larynx and
Bronchial tubes in the form of spray, or a fine
mist, either cold or warm, according to the indi
cations to be fulfilled. By means of the Atom
izer any remedy can be applied which can ha
dissolved in water or alcohol; but the limits of
this article will not permit me to describe it at
greater length. I shall, at all times daring
my stay here, be pleased to explain its theory
and application to all persons who apply to me
at my rooms.
I am, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
