THE EXHAUSTED SYSTEM.
Bummer is a debilitating season, and the sudden
change of temperature which takes place at this po

ably enervated by the preeeeding heat, and the
weakly and delicate almost prostrated. This ia not
a favorablo condition in which to encounter the raw
cold winda of October and ita chilling fogs and
night dawa. and consequently Intermittent fover,
dysentery, billions attacks and rheumatism aro more
or leas prevalent everywhere, bat especially in lo
calities where the atmosphere is naturally unwhole
some. In order to avoid the dangers arising from
tKSto causes, the exhausted system should now be
renovated and invigorated by a course of II03TET-

ordinary tonics so repulsive, oompoeod of extracts
atul juices of tlia choicest vegetable invigorants and

which every noxious element has been expelled,
this renowned preparation is, in all respects, the

Mercer tmiversity.
We are indebted to Mr. Williams, the Secretary,
for the following report of proceedings taken by a
number of prominent citizens of Macon in regard
to the removal of the Mercer University to this
place. We reserve comment for lack of space in
this issue:
Council Chamber, >
Macon, Gl, October 9th, 1969./
In pursuance of an invitation of a committee of
the friends of Mercer University, a number of the
citizens of the city convened this afternoon in the
Council Chamber, to consult together as to the pro
priety of making some effort to secure the removal
of that institution to this city.
The meeting was organized by calling Dr. D. W.
Hammond to the chair, and the appointment of W.
D. Williams as Secretary.
On motion. Rev. Mr. Warren was invited to ex
plain tho object of the meeting, which he did. stat
ing that the subject of the removal of Mercer
University was under consideration by the trustees
and denomination having the control of it, and that
in all probability the institution would be removed
to some locality other than the one it now occupies,
and in view of that event he took occasion to urge
the propriety of this meeting instituting somo
measures to secure its location in tho dty of Macon.
He referred to the fact of the favorable situation
of the dty for the seat of a literary institution of a
high order—it being near the center of the territory
of the State, and the center, likewise, of the intel
ligence and agricultural wealth of the State. He
also pointed out some of the advantages that would
ensue to the dty and community from the location
here of Mercer University. Leaving out of consid
eration all the moral and educational advantages to
be derived from the presence here of & college of
high character, he alluded briefly to the material
advantages, and instanced the fact that about forty
young men from the dty of Macon aro now being
educated at the various colleges of this State and
in other States, at an annual expense of five hun
dred dollars each, making the sum of twenty thou
sand dollars paid by tho dtizens of the place outside
of the dty for education: while, if tho university
wero located here, it would attract at least one hun
dred and fifty young men from abroad, which, at
an average of five hundred dollars each, would bring
into the dty seventy-five thousand dollars. The
location of such an institution hero would tend to
induce dtizens of wealth and others to move in,
and contribute to the growth and prosperity of tho
dty. These advantages would bo enhanced by the
professional schools, as those of Medicine, Law,
Agriculture, and Engineering, to be incorporated in
the University as departments.
The particular advantages which would be de
rived from the removal of Mercer University to this
city would be that it is already an organized insti
tution, of high reputation, with an endowment now
of one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars,
and the prospective increase of tho sum, by agen-
des now at work, to two hundred thousand in a
abort time; that it is an institution under the pat
ronage of a denomination numbering one hundred
thousand, and second to no other in the State for
wealth and influence. He noticed the facLfhat al
though the institution was denominational it was
not sectarian.
On motion, the Chairman appointed tho following
gentlemen as a committee to consider of and report
to the meeting some proper action in reference to
the subject, to-wit: CoL W. J. Lawton, Dr. E. L.
Strobeckcr, E. Winehip, Esq., Capt. O. A. Bacon,
W. T. Lightfoot, Eaq.
While the committee was out making up their
report, the meeting was briefly addressed in favor
of the proposed object by His Honor Mayor Obear.
The committee having returned, reported through
its Chairman, CoL Lawton, the following prcamblo
and resolutions, which were adopted unanimously:
Whereas, The location of a Literary Institution of
a high order in our dty is now being agitated; and
believing that such an institution would contribute
very greatly to the material, moral and educational
interests of our town, and that the good order, quiet
and high moral character of our people, point out
Macon as presenting superior advantages for tho
location of a seat of learning for young men;
therefore,
Revolved, That wo will cordially co-operate with
the friends of this movement in accomplishing so
desirable an end.
Resolved, That we recommend all our citizens
and the dty to subscribe liberally for this purpose,
believing that it will be remunerative even consid
ered in a financial sense.
liesolved. That, as tho buildings for this purnose
should bo amplo and at tho samo timo a credit to
the liberality and entorpriao of our dty and peoplo,
that we bclievo our dtizens will sustain the City
Council in making a liberal subscription to secure
tho location of tho Mcrccr University in Macon.
As tho Committoo, at whose invitation we havo
met, desired our advice, therefore,
Resolved, That we recommend to the Committee
to adopt such measures as in their judgment will
best socoxe the amount necessary, and tliat they
pursue this matter at once and with energy.
Resolved, That the Chairman of this meeting ap
point a committee of three citizens to confer with
tho Mayor and Council of the dty of Macon, for tho
pm pose of securing from tho dtv such an appropri
ation as will secure tho location of the college here.
Tho following gentlemen were appointed a com
mittee to confer with tho Mavor and Council under
resolution six: CoL W. J. Lawton, Dr. E. L. Stro-
heckcr, Dr. J. E. Blacksbear.
On motion, the Chairman was requested to ap
point, at his leisure, a committee of five citizens to
act in concert with tho committee of tho friends of
Mercer University, who called this meeting.
The following resolution, offered by Col. Lawton,
was adopted:
Resolved, That when this meeting adjourn it do so
subject to the call of the Chairman, if in his opinion
another meeting be necessary.
On motion, the daily papers of tho city wero re
quested to publish tho proceedings of this meeting.
The meeting then adjourned.

Messrs. Havens & Brown's News Depot.—There
are few more attractive places in the city of Macon
for ladies to visit than tho deservedly popular
News Depot of Messrs. Havens & Brown, on Sec
ond street, between Cherry and Mulberry. From
small beginnings this energetic firm have gone on
progressively, until to-day they have one of the
finest stores, and in one of the most fashionable
portions of this dty. Their place is beautifully
decorated by richly carved statuettes, remarkably
fine, largo steel engravings, superb cliromos from
tho richest establishments of Europe, and paintings
and colored scenes that aro universally admired by
all who call upon them to examine their well-i
lectcd stock.
Besides receiving nearly all the most prominent
newspapers printed in this country, they keep on
hand the finest stock of illustrated papers imagin
able, together with the leading magazines of this
country and Europe. They have also a fine assort
ment of stationery, suitable for the boudoir of a
dty belle or the counting house of a flourishing
merchant; blank books of every form, style, and
price; counting house furniture; photographs of
all the distinguished men and women of the age
Buperb gold pens for the desk or pocket; porte-
monnaia. and, in fact, about everything in that line
that can be looked for anywhere.
Besides this, their shelves are kept constantly
supplied with new books, sent them by nearly
every train, by New York, Philadelphia, and Boston
publishers; and those of our friends who love to
read “the latest thing out,*' may be very sure of
finding it at this very popular place of resort.
Courteous and accommodating to all, whether they
buy or not, always endeavoring to please their pat
rons, it need not be wondered at that this enter*
prising firm are doing a heavy business, which any
one can see is perceptibly increasing day by day.
Those of our readers in the country who are so
situated that they cannot well visit this attractive
store personally have only to forward their written
order, stating what they require, and enclosing the
amount of their intended purchases, when their
wants will be attended to with the same scrupulous
exactness as though they were present themselves,
and the books, magazines, papers, or whatever else
may be ordered, will be sent promptly the same day
tee order is received. but endorse the opinion
of all who know Messrs. Havens k Brown, when
we recoxxmead them as prompt, energetic and reli-
business men.
Mrs. F. Dessau, 68 Mulberry street, is in receipt
of a very superb stock of ladies* drees goods, trim
mings, gloves, laces and embroideries, of the latest
styles and fashion. Ladies of Macon and Central
Georgia aro too familiar with this popular millinery
establishment to require more at obr to
announoe tee reception of goods as above.
Fixe Pictures.—Pictures of any kind which rep
resent nature, are always prized, but when, for a
small sum. a truly natural likeness—it may be of
one's dear self—can be obtained and bo embellished
by art as to render it more beautiful than tee origi
nal, we do not wonder at the large number who are
constantly flocking to Pugh's Gallery. This artist has
been always eminently successful, and we learn is
now as busy as he can be, but ever ready to take
one more.

The 8. S. S. of 1861,
Or Dr. JEUSON'S Original Southern Soothing
Syrup fob Children Teethino, is again resusci
tated ! It is a CorrUjent of the Bowel disorders
contingent upon thia period; a grateful Carmina
tive; a nutritious Syrup ; and a gentle Anodyne,
inducing calm and refreshing repose, Trithout tho
pernicious and distressing reactionary disturbance
of the nervous system that results from the exhibi
tion of most preparations—exp rexxtt/ made for chil
dren, Ita use in the Southern States, as far back
as 18C2, established its reputation as a Southern In
stitution, and, as a medicine unrivalled, and as be
ing the best and safest preparation for children
teething, ensuring rest to mothers and nurses and
relief and strength to their infants. It is therefore
no new medicine, %nd needs no advertising where it
is best known. Every precaution has been taken
to preserve and protect it from fraudulent counter
feits. It is manufactured only at the Laboratory
of Corn:, Tompkins k Hurd, members of and suc
cessors to the old established Southern Dbco House
of Harral, Rislet k Kitchen, 141 Chambers
street. New York, to whom all orders should be ad
dressed, and is for sale to the citizens of Macon by

Be Beautiful. If you desire beauty, you should
use Hagan's Magnolia Balm.
It gives a soft, refined. Batin-like texture to the
Complexion, removes Roughness, Redness,Blotches
Sunburn, Tan, etc., and a tinge of Pearly Bloom to
tho plainest features. It brings the Bloom of
Youth to the fading cheek, and changes the rustic
Country Girl into a Fashionable City Belle.
In the use of the Magnolia Balm lies the true se
cret of beanty. No lady need complain of her com
plexion who will invest 75 cents in this delightful
article.
