Every exchange of values is in its very nature
properly the result of a compromise between the
parties—the buyer and the seller—and all com
binations which may be invented or contrived to
interfere with or prevent the most perfect liber
ty of judgment and will in the parties in making
the trade, is unjust, inequitable and false in
principle and must be mischievous in practice.
The labor unions of all kinds are so indefensi
ble that every member of them would revolt at
the application of the system to other values. If
grocers, butchers, bakers, clothiers, etc., should
also combine in a spirit of defiance to consu
mers and demand inexorably from purchasers

Putnam Comity Fair.
The Executive Committee in charge of the
preparations for this exhibition, will rapidly
pnsh ahead with the work from this time for
ward. They will have eight or ten acres well
enclosed and three buildings, besides raco
course, etc. They expect a good attendance
and a fine exhibition. It occurs Nov. 2d, bnt two
weeks before tho great State Fair at Macon.—
Exhibitors at tho Fair at Macon could exhibit
their articles at tho Pntnam Fajy, and easily
transport to Macon afterwards. Putnam is a
wido awako agricnltnral connty, and we wonld
recommend a full attendance of all those inter
ested in such matters.
The Putnam .Superior Court.
Pntnam Superior Court, Hon. Philip B. Rob
inson presiding, has been in session the past
week. Old business was rapidly disposed of.
Judge R. holds, in relief cases, that tho loss of
negroes only can ho a ground for a reduction of
debts. Ho docs not allow any testimony as to
connection of plaintiff with tho war. In cases
single-handed, is forced to combat a powerful
combination, than it would he a fair fight on. the
same conditions.
It is a matter of notoriety that a scheme is in
progress to induce the negroes to go into this
Union Labor organization and arraying them
selves in a solid body to demand extraordinary
advances on the current prices of labor; and
the apology for this plan of operations is fonnd
in tho attitnde of white Labor Unions of all
kinds throughout the country. Wo admit that
the expedient is quite as just and defensible in
the one cose as in the other; but it is indefen
sible and mischievous in both. It practically
snhstitntes coercion on tho one side for free and
voluntary trade on both. It needlessly antago
nizes the parties, and it discourages individual
enterprise and fidelity by placing all on a dead
level and compelling the good and faithful to
carry the worthless.
"iVo are confident that tho practical effect of
Labor Unions, tho world over, has been bad on
all parties. That in strikes and expenses they
have involved all the membership in great losses,
which the little additional they may have been
able to extort does not go a tithe towards rein-
bnraing. Let the negroes avoid this trap, and
work on harmoniously with their employers.
They are entitled to drive their own bargains
and get as much as they can command in fair
negotiation, and this is tho truo market value
of labor. ■
Tin- War on flic <>ol<l Speculators.
Nobody feels any sympathy for the sharpers
who “ply their vocation” in Broad str^t, New
York, and win their bread by betting on the
price of gold; hut some amusement may be
drawn from their terrible disoomfiture on Fri
day. Gold on that day fluctuated from 1 63 to
where tho law is abused by juries m their d.s- , 3 3 _ twent ,. nino ccnta . The day was one of
cretion, ho grants now trials. Several import- 1 nj ^ wl | e j ea excitement, dosing in a scene of

Transactions wero so enormous that the Gold
Exchange Bank could not settle at tho regular
hour, causing great confusion. It is impossi
ble to tell at present what large firms, if any
have failed; several small firms are known to
have suspended.

“WrmocT Comment."—Tho Savannah News
says wo published the New Era’s statement that
Jndge Lochrano “declares openly and unequi
vocally for President Grant," without comment.”
Think of tho audneity of reprinting such a state
ment ns that '■'without comment!" Bnt what |

We hopo tho Savannah Morning Nows will
forthwith redeem its character, by giving the
world precisely that amount of “comment,”
which he thinks a personal paragraph of this
description calls for.
No Cat in the Bao.—Wo ndviso tho New
Em to 1>«» calm. That paper, expatiating on
our declaration that we wonld kill all tho radi
cal doings, if wo had tfio power, exclaims:.
This, then, lets tlio cat out of tho bag. Tho
editor of the Thleobaph wonld repeal tho XIVth
Article of “tho Constitution as it is,” and con
sequently undo tho wholo work of roconstmc-
tion in Georgia, because the article “destroys tho
sovereignty of the States.”
There never was a cat in tho bag so far ns tho
TEi.EOK.vrn is concerned We opposed tho
Fourteenth Amendment before it was adopted
and declared wo novor could voto for it. We
have submitted to all the outrages of Congres
sional reconstruction simply because wo can’t
help ourselves. We go for the admission of tho
negroes to the Legislature simply because they
aro entitled to it by law, and wo can’t help our
selves. But if tho question of a repeal of this
wholo scries of unconstitutional enactments ever
comes before tho American people, the New Era
need never doubt for a moment whore he'will
find the Tei.eohaJH.
Persons afflicted with rheumatism will be in
terested in tho case of Dr. J. G. Gibson; of Ea-
tonton. The gentlemen whoso name aro ap
pended to his certificates aro well known to ns
and perfectly reliable. Dr. Gibson is a regu
larly educated physician of tho Allopathic school,
and his preparations have been much com
mended.
A Calico Ball came ofl* with great* eclat in
Atlanta last Thursday night. Tho display, tho
Atlanta papers assure us, was dazzling. The
stars of the evening came out in all sorts of
printed stripes, and cambrics glittered like
satins. We trust the young ladies did not aban
don their calicoes when tho ball was over.
Tnn Government got back to Washington
again and resumed business last Wednesday. It
is said that notwithstanding their long absence,
the porter of the White House remembered and
recognized Gen. Grant, afid tho heads of depart
ments were known to the clerks.
Our friend Yarrington, general agent of the
Teixoraph, reported himself at headquarters
yesterday. The old gentleman has pervaded
the moral vineyard and gives a highly favorable
report. The people demand light, and ho is
‘‘gathering them in by scores.”
Rawlins.—The World says that Rawlins, at
the last Cabinet meeting he attended, injured
himself seriously in getting excited over some
scheme to coerce the South. Says that paper:
At the laft session of the Cabinet, a matured
plan to coerce the South into the support of the
extremists was presented. General Rawlins
was the last around the board to speak. He
was there against the protest of his phvsicians.
It is likely that the terrific blow with which, in
emphasis of his words, his feeble fist struck the
table, cracked his heart-strings—“I tell yon,
gentlemen, yon can’t do it.
Poor House Farm.—We learn from Mr. W.
W. Harrell, Manager of the Poor House Farm,
that he has picked and packed six bales of cot
ton off the seventeen acres he had planted in
cotton the heaviest of which weighed six hun
dred and eighty-nine pounds, and the lightest
five hundred and fifty. He says he thinks he
will probably get two more bales. That’s doing
pretty well upon land that was considered too
poor to sprout peas.—Bainbridge Sun.

himself publishes that same paragraph with- may bo perhaps inferred from tho following in
out a word of comment, other than stating that ^ ^ ^ Tnesd .
theTnxoiurn reprinted it “without comment. | „ An |dlisBM of th# most ^ jnfln _
ential firms in Wall-street, including notorious
Erie speculators, has been effected with a view
of obtaining the exclusive possession of all tho
gold in the market. When this is accomplished
tho conspirators can dictate their own terms,
and merchants and others, who are compelled
to bny or borrow gold, must necessary procure
it of this auriferous ring. It is also believed
that these schemers own all tho gold deposited
in tho banks. Having thns tho power of control,
the operators are gradually raising the prico of
gold about an eighth per cent, daily. Their
agents in tho gold room bny nil that is offered at
their standard bid, and only sell at a qnarter
per cent, higher. At this rate they will elevnte
tho buying and selling price each succeeding
week abont one and a half per cent. In addi
tion to this method of bleeding tkoso who of
necessity have occasion to use gold, wo are told
that thru threaten at no distant day to refine to
lend at any price, and to cell only on their own
term*.” -<
That day camo on Friday, and this, wo eon-
jeetnre was tho ring which had, at last, on Fri
day, succeeded in getting things all their own
way—producing artificial scarcity and a panic
and forcing np gold with such stupendous
strides, that Mr. Secretary Bontwell probably
telegraphed tho New York Snb-Trensnrer to GO
IN— whic!i he did, and with snch boldness and
vigor—probably throwing enormous sums on
tho market, that tho wholo fabric of tho ring
camo down upon their own heads with a crash
and they were smashed ont, so terribly and fa
tally that they will not be soon in condition or
in plnckto repeat their experiments.
Dn. IlrxTEn’s Let-tee uton Chronic Bros-
dims.—Onr readers will find in another col
umn an able and interesting letter upon chronic
Bronchitis, from the pen of Dr. J. A. Hunter,
of Now Orleans, the eminent specialist for
Tnroat and Lung diseases. Dr. Hunter's com
munications upon tho subject of this class of
ailments, with which so many nre afflicted, to
gether with testimonials from residents of At
lanta • and Macon, aro already familiar to our
readers and speak for themselves. Tho follow
ing is from the New Orleans Times:
The successful result of Dr. Hunter's practice
during his residence here has elicited compli
mentary cards from somo of our oldest and most
respectable residents. Setting aside tho cura
bility of consumption after it has become thor
oughly established, none can donbt or deny the
importance of curing those diseases of the nose
and throat which almost invariably result in it,
and also its detection and treatment in its early
stages. There are thousands in onr midst suf
fering from these minor affections, which if
neglected, will as certainly end in consumption
as the tide of the Mississippi will flow on in
its course to the Gnlf.
A “Brutal Soldiery.”
There was a military encampment last week
near Springfield, Mass., in which license took
the place of discipline, and a mad revel prevail
ed for a week. There is a law prohibiting the
sale of liqnor in Massachusetts; yet, says a
Boston paper, Springfield was “filled with
drunken men in uniform. Ladies of respectabil
ity were insulted. Disrepntable women were
qneens of the camp. Sentinels left their posts
to join in distant carousals.” The police were
compelled to use their clubs on the militia.—
The drill was farcical, and the State money was
squandered in a disgraceful frolic.
All this occurred in Massachusetts, where
public sentiment is supposed to require a liquor
law so stringent that under its benign inflnences
an orgy like that at Camp Claflin was possible,
in fact called for. The very reaction from Pu
ritan fanaticism wonld turn this gathering of
Pnritan descendants into an unseemly revel,
whose inflnences must be demoralizing in the ex
treme. Where wns the faithful Butler. Com
mander-in-chief of the Bay State Militia, that
he was not on hand with a second New Orleans
order against the men and women who “plied
their vocation" nefariously among his troops ?
That is pretty heavy to come from so radical
> a sheet as the New York Commercial Advertser.
From Washington.
Washisotos, Sept. 25.—It is stated that the Presi
dent, on reading the accounts strongly committing
the Executive to interference in favor of the ex
tremists in Texas and Mississippi, said to parties of
his officcial household, that the reports were not
sul^tantiallr true. The facts are that the President
will allow the secretaries to act their pleasure in
their several departments. This will throw the pa
tronage of the Fostofficc. Treasury, and Attorney
Genera] for the extremists and the State and Navy
and Interior, if they interfere at all, will favor the
Conservative republicans. This rough statement
of the stuation is the closest approximation possi
ble. The best opinion persists in asserting neutrali
ty in the highest quarters.

Major General Reynolds has addressed a letter
to President Grant, dated September 4th. in which,
after speaking of political affairs in Texas, he says:
‘■The platform of the two wings of the Republican
party are the same. The Radical wing act out their
professions of adherence to the reconstruction laws
of Congress and present for office men who are
qualified under these laws. The Conservative wing
frequently nominate men for office who are known
to be disqualified under the reconstruction laws, but
who are also known to be acceptable to the Demo
crats. The suoceae of the A. J. Hamilton faction,
as it will be produced by Democratic votes will be
the defeat of Republicanism in Texas, and will put
the State in the hands of the very men who, during
the entire period of the rebellion, exerted every
nerve to destroy the Union, and who have uniform
ly opposed the reconstruction laws with a persisten
cy worthy of a better cause.”

Tlit> London Times on the Cotton
Supply.
Loxdox, September 23.—The Times in an
article on the cotton supply, says that Mr. Ash
worth and Mr. Bright, by different methods,
arrive at the samo end, namely: That nothing
is wanted bnt more cotton. More cotton wonld
start the mills and silence tho clamors against
free trade. Of this we are not sure, bnt wo are
well aware that the prostration of industry in
Lancashire demands attention. Cotton is dear
liecanse it is scarce. “Why scarce, becanse the
crop of the Southern States, with consignments
from other points, has enormously increased the
supply. If less cotton arrives, Liverpool must
investigate the cause. It wonld be safer to say
that Lancashire suffers from the loss of trade
more than from tho dearness and scarcity of
cotton. The demands for goods is less than it
formerly was. If the Americans would tako our
manufactures as freely as we take their cotton
and com, tho industry wonld be entirely over
tho snpply of material.
Thus it is not improbablo that the protective
tariff of other countries are answerable in the
same degree for the depression in Lancashire.
It is certain that in this case cheap cotton will
not remedy the suffering. The loss of the mar
ket is not material. Our manufactures con
trolled tho world; thoy were better and cheaper
than those of other countries. What is to be
done now, that people refuse to bny in the
cheapest market? Without free trade manu
facturing looses its value. If trade is bad in
consequence of tho restriction of other countries,
the scarcity or abundance of cotton is immate
rial without a doubt. Lancashire suffers be
cause other countries refuse to trade with ns
freely. To attempt to relieve her by refusing
to trade freely with them would be absurd.
Marrying a Lord.

From tie Erse Tort Sun.
Yesterday the gentlemen friends of Lord Hul-
bert Ainsloy, of London, entertained him with
a dinner in honor of his engagement to a beauti
ful Staten Island belle and heiress, which has
just been announced. His Lordship arrived in
this country in July, aud while sojourning at
one of the places of fashionable resort, fell in
love, proposed and was accepted by the beauti
ful girl who is his fiancee. The dinner was given
at the residence of Mr. Jared Oliver, in Twen
ty-third street. It was entirely a “stag” party;
but during the dinner young Ainsley announced
that it was his intention to give a dejeuner at
an early day to both ladies and gentlemen.
Wine flowed like water and wit accordingly
sparkled at tho festive board. The party broke
up at abont G o'clock and the hacks about the
Fifth Avenue Hotel were in uncommon demand.
The nuptials are to be celebrated in grand
style in November, and, we are assured, “will
throw into the shade any wedding ever solemn
ized in New York." The prospective bride is
having her trousseau made in this city from
patterns sent from Paris. This wedding will
probably take place in Grace Church and the
subsequent reception at Delmonico’s.
One of Brigham Young’s daughters recently
fell in love with a handsome young Gentile, and
an elopement to a land of liberty was planned.
Relays of horses were stationed along the road,
and late one night the lover proceeded in a bng-
■gy to a place near the premises of Brigham,
where the lady was to meet him, and they were
to begin their flighj. The old man had got wind
of the affair, however, and just as the damsel
was about to join her waiting lover, several
policemen seized her, and putting her into Brig
ham's family carriage, which was promptly at
hand, she was driven back to the paternal home,
to await there the destiny that Mormonism has
in store for her.

is very different in the two cases. In Bronchitis,
thickening of jhe mucons membrane diminishes
the size of tho air-tubes and shortens the breath.
■When the nose is obstructed by unhealthy se
cretions, or so charged by disease as to make it
difficult for ns to breathe through the nose, we
can breathe through tho month; but when the
bronchial tubes in the lungs are obstructed or
diminished in size, wo can only find relief by
the core of the bronchial disease.
Bronchitis, then, is a disease of the lining of j
the bronchial tubes, ramifying in the substance <;etIS
of the lungs. This lining membrano is very U
sensitive to every external influence, and is,
hence, liable to become Irritated by sudden
changes of weather, by impure air, by the fine
particles of matter which fill the atmosphere of

meet our breathing in almost everyplace.. The
common cause, however, is cold, showing itself
first as a catarrh of the note, next affecting tho
throat and larynx, and lastly, involving tho
bronchial tubes, when the disease is known ns a
seated “ cold in the chest," or Bronchitis.-
Tho acute symptoms usually subside after a
short time; but, unless the patient is properly
treated, he discovers a slight disposition to

case ho will probably die before spring, with all
tho symptoms of CossLumost. Still, this is
not consumption at all; it is simply a chronic
catarrh of the lungs or chronic Bronchitis.
WINTER COtUJII.
It is very common for chronio Bronchitis to
assume a milder form, when it is spoken of as a
“ winter cough." It comes on each winter, and 1
as regularly subsides daring the summer; bnt,
at every succeeding recurrence, it manifests it
self in greater severity; and recovery in the fol
lowing summer is not so complete. This form
of Bnoxcnms, if neglected, will as surely destroy
life (and, treated in the usual manner, it is as
incurable) as Consumption itself. Tho mucous
membrane, sooner or later, becomes altered in
structure, and pours forth a matter which has
all tho qualities of pus. Hectic fever supervenes,
and the disease tends slowly, but surely, to a
fatal termination.
BRONCHITIS OF OL.D AGE,
Another form of Bronchitis is peculiar to
middle life andoldage. It is distinguished by the
quantity and the character of the matter expec
torated. Usually, there are two fits of coughing

Thero is still another form of this disease,
called “Drt Bronchitis,” the essential charac
ter of which consists of chronic inflammation,
attended by a thickening of the mucons mem
brane, by which tho air-tubes are diminished in
size, and also in the secretion of a dense, gluti
nous kind of matter of a greenish or bluish-tc7ttie
color, by which they are still further obstrncted.
The smaller bronchial tubes are often entirely
dosed, and occasionally a tube of very consid- I
erable size becomes sealed vp by this matter.

NO ARSENIC-NO MERCURY.
PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
Tho only remedy for Chills and Fever, or Ague and
Fever, that is or can bo depended upod, is HUR
LEY'S AGUE TUNIC. 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 the Ague whilst in Vicksburg, Miss., and used
soverai popular medicines with but temporary relief.
On reachinghomc tho disease returned in a worse tvpe,
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
8100, I consulted Dr. Smith, of Louisville, and found
he prescribed quinine and arsenic combined, which I
refused to take, preferring to lot tho disoaso take its
course. I was almost bloodncss, extremely exhausted,
and pronounced with enlarge Liver and Spleen. About
this timo the advertisement of Uurley's Aguo Toutfc.
appeared in a city paper, and I determined to give it
atrial. I did so. and havo no reason to regret it.
Ouo bottle restored me completely, and since ;h:it tiim*
I havo seen nearly a hundred cases in which it acted
with equally happy results, and would certainly
recommend it as prcforablo to any other tonic beforo
tho public.

Hurley’s Sarsaparilla is what it is represented, and
I believe it the most wonderful mcdicino before the
public. Nothing under the heavens could induco mo
to say so without proof of tho strongest and surest
kind; therefore I speak willingly and positively on
tho subject.
My daughter has hern afflicted with skin disoaso
and stiffness of tho joints lor several years. I em
ployed tho principnl physicians of tho city and they
could not cure her. I gave hor yonr Sarsaparilla,
not expectiuR it would do much good, but to my great
astonish inert {fsho rapidly got well, and thank God
continues so. Had sne been taking any mcdicino I
would not give this certificate; but your Sarsaparilla,
tho only remedy employed, leaves no doubt of its
medical qualities, and that it alone cured her?

HURLEY’S
POPULAR WORM O^NDY.
As this is roally a specific for Worms, and tho best
and most palatable form to give to children, it is not
surprising that it is fast taking tho place of nil other
preparations for worms—it being pcrfoctly tasteless,
and any child will take it.
Messrs. James Kuddlo & Co.—Gentlemen ; It gives
me great pleasure to say, after using all the other worm
remedies known to ine. with but partial success to my
children. 1 was advised to try Dr. T. A. Hurley's,
and since using it. my children have become well
andhealthy ; the children would cat it all thetlme.it
is so pleasant, if wo would let them. I believe
it is one of the best and safest remedies known, and
as such, recommend it to One one and all.
