We understand the Baptists of Georgia wish to locate their university in Macon. They se lect this place for its centrality—accessibility— salubrity. It is a flue point for an intellectual moral and religious focalization as to Georgia. Penfield iH seven miles distant from a railroad, and never will be reached by any great thorough fare. It is, in these times of rapid locomotion, out of the world, and it has but the single pub lic interest of this University. Its inaccessibil ity limits its scope and influence to almost pure ly denominational support in Georgia, and much of this even in Georgia is lost by reason of inconvenient access. It is beyond all reli gious and literary influences not arising within itself, and supplies of all kinds get there expen sively and slowly. Vet with all these weighty disadvantages Mer cer University has maintained constantly a po sition of moderate prosperity, and it has now eighty-seven non resident nndergrsduates.— The Baptist denomination is very powerful in Ibis State. Years ago they used to number ninety thousand or more communicants, and we presume have largely increased their number since wo saw the figures. Now, if, with their endowment and able facul ty, they can plant themselves at this central point, they would enter upon a new era. They would command the whole of their own denom inational force in Georgia and probably add a a good deal from neighboring States. Moreovor, there are now forty yonth in Ma con who are under graduates of some of our colleges and it is highly probable their succes sors would prefer a college at home to one abroad; while the love of education inspired by such an establishment would no doubt largely increase this number. In less than ten years, located in Macon, it would receive s hundred students from this place alone, if there were no other college or University here. What with domestic and foreign students we Hhonld Bay that in a fow years, Mercer, under such circumstance, ought to command at least two hundred undergradn- •tcs. The least that such a business would bring and save to this town would be one hundred thousand dollars per annum, in students alone, while the business, visitors and travel it would bring would largely increase this amount. "We havo said that the corporation of Macon shonld move to nssist Mercer in the proposed location. They shonld not do it, however, with out the sanction of the people expressly given to the proposition. We therefore suggest to the Oonncil to take some steps to invite nn expres sion of the public will on this point forthwith. The Pennsylvania Flection. Onr dispatches indicate Republican gains in Pennsylvania, and the success of thst party. The South and West may no longer look to tho Eastern States for a retnrn to the principles of the Constitution, as a recognition of the rightH of the producing sections of the country. Tho manufacturing and bond-holding interests of that section are remorseless in their demands and reckless in the means to secure them. We must now look to the West alone for strength to overthrow the despotism of the moneyed oli garchy, and to tho laboring classea of the entire Republic the appeal must go up for equal taxa tion, snd tho rights of the toilers. Later.—Our closing dispatches leave ns in doubt ns to the result. It may be that the solid men of tho Keystone have pnt their shoulders to the wheel, and reversed tho rolling rnin of the jnggernant. Our National I»ebt—The Reported Of fer of the Rothschilds. A report (says the Herald) comes throagh n Washington tolegrnm that the Rothschilds are about to offer a loan to onr government to any amount it may deaire at fonr per cent, interest, and that M. Friguot, an agent of these great capitalists, will arrive shortly to make the pro position. It is fnrther said that this proposed action on the part of the Rothschilds has been prompted by tho discovery that certain German capitalists were cortemplating a similar propo sition. Now, we do not know what truth there may be in this report. It may only be a bull operation on the part of those holding largely United States securities for the purpose of send ing tip the prices in the markets ; and if we con sider that the Rothschilds would not be likely to make known in advance any great financial op eration of this sort, such would be a reasonable view of tho character and object of the tele gram. Still it is not improbable that either the Rothschilds or the German capitalists alluded to, or Kith, may contemplate snch a grand financial movement. and black, harmonized on one ticket, selected f items of interest in this city, which you are at with much wisdom and judgment and everyway entitled to support, and elected it by three thou- j sand majority out of a registered poll of 4400. The forces stood, 3700 Democrats and 700 Rad icals. The political opposition has, in fact, dwindled liberty to use as you deem proper. Among oth er live topics hert the Commercial Convention which assembles on the 14th inst., is the fore most The city is absolutely jammed and over crowded already with visitors and delegates.

Call and in quire of I. C. Plant, Esq., agent for Macon. Fisz Rzadixg.—The finest reading of the age is to lie found in official and other expositions of the internal revenue acts. It is the most purely original literature extant, and is made np principally of oonoeptions which never before entered the head of man. The last effort we shall notice is a decision of the Internal Revenue that “sweet potatoes must be regarded as grain.” This decision was made on the 6th and was evoked by the fact that the Virginians were making whisky out of sweet potatoes. The Commissioner is now engaged in determining whether clams are quadrupeds. Amxbiccb City jjm Business Dihectort.— Mr. Wm. C. P. Cleghom hand ns a neatly print ed volume of nearly 200 pages, containing a list of business houses and citizens of Americas history of the town—the Constitution of the State of Georgia—Court Calendar—County Of ficers and Post Offioes in Georgia, with much other valable matter, and a large number of * advertisements. The work is very creditable to Messrs. Cleghorn & Cain, the publishers. Oslo and PEraan-vANiA.—We shall probably get returns before going to press which will set tle the question in Ohio and Pennsylvania. The Republicans claim both States by small majori ties, but we do not think they will be much sur prised if they have lost Pennsylvania. ing them away from the polls will not stick. The voters voted—and voted their own way without let or hindrance from anybody; and the result is that the moral and intellectual power of Savannah carried tho day almost nrm. con. The Radical party amounted in composition, probably, to a small body of political adventur ers supplemented by a following of the riff-raff among tbo negroes—the vagrants—the idle and the vicious, who have no stake or interest in society—whose views are, in fact, best subserved by public disorder and confusion—that, and that alone, was tho so-called “Republican” ex hibit at the Savannah municipal election on Monday. And snch must, under existing circumstances, be the inevitable drift everywhere in Georgia. This election adds only one more to the po tential facts going to provo the utter impossibil ity of building np a political power on the scheme adopted by the Congressional and North ern Radicals for the Sonth and pnt into opera tion here. No amount of dry nnrsing to carpet- baggery here, backed by negro appointments to office, will be of the least avail. Both are in fact suicidal so far os laying the foundation for a re liable and serviceable political party is con cerned. They are rubbish which must be torn np and got rid of before a safe foundation can be reached. And what is that foundation? It must be found, if found at all, in the approbation and sympathy of the intelligent and substantial peo ple of the country. It must be found in judi cious appointments—pure administration and liberal and reasonable counsels. The Repub lican party, in a word, mnst cast aside their malign temper—discountenance their proscrip tive policy— dismiss the idea that they can re construct the Sonth into Radicalism. They never can do it, and tho more they try the worse will bo the party results to follow. Let them look at the facts. Chatham last year was one of the counties about which a great denunciation was made, and hundreds of affida vits taken to prove’that tho “rebels” instituted a reign of terrorism. Yet Chatham gavo then but 2,379 Democratic majority, while this year tho corporation of Savannah alono gave 3000. And how can it be otherwise when all the wealth, character and moral and intellectual power are arrayed in one party. Every piece of pnnitivo legislation, every thing in the nature of retributive policy—every unfit and scanda lous appointment, only concentrates this power ful opposition. There never conld be a more suicidal and erroneous conception than this one of building np a political party upon a basis of foreign adventurers and negroes, with tho aid o( a pnnitivo and repressive legislation npon the great body of the people. Cannot the Radicals see it 1 And if they see it, let them reverse their engino in time to save themselves a remnant. Let them try a new polioyon Georgia—drop re- reconstrnction and purging and fussing. Let them pnt first-rate men in office and set about conciliating tho pcoplo into Republicanism, if they can, instead of driving them into it. Railway Slaaghter Records. Tho Long Island Railroad publishes a list of casualties on the Hudson River, New York Cen tral, Erie and Long Island Roads, from 1SC1 to 80S, with tho exception of the year 1804, inclu sive, by which it appears that during that time 1005 passengers wore killed and 783 wounded on these Roads. Tho figures run thus—the first num bers being killed: 18G1, 113-60; 1862,110-58; 1863,129-51; 18C3, 1G7-145; 18CG, 147-191; 1867, 122 141 ; 1808, 217-142. Now of this formidable list of killed and wounded, tho Long Island Road boasts that they are accountable for only 47, bo that 1746 are one to the Hndson River, New York Central and Erie, or an average to each road, daring every year, of 83 persons killed and wounded, but more killed than wounded. That is a pretty heavy annual list of railroad killing for any road to father. A trains in Oooly. Tiexna, Ga., October 7, 1869. Editors 1 digraph : Our Superior Court, Hon. 0. B. Cole presiding, has been in session this week. There baa been a considerable amount of business disposed of for the space of time (three and a half days,) it has been in session. No cases of any great importance before the court. His Honor still retains to a remarkable degree that vigor of yonth both physically and mentally, for which he has so long been noted as one of Georgia's noblest and ablest judges. Vie have nothing of special note except a con tinuation of a long and rninous drought. The greater portion of the county had ordinary sea sons up to and daring the month of Jane, since which time we had bat two good and general seasons in onr county, the result of which is cotton and corn both short, though nearly enough of the latter to supply the wants of the county. Peas, cane, potatoes, turnips, and late vegetables of all kinds a complete failure. Water has become to be the one thing needful, the wells and what few springs we have are failing; the branches, creeks and ponds are dry and fast becoming so. Were it not for the steam mills there would be great sufferingfor meal and bread; and stock of all kinds are failing fast for want of water; they gather and go in droves in search of water—will stop at houses and look eagerly over the fences, seemingly trying to tell of their great suffering for the cooling dranght, which is usually so plentiful in our county. There is now some appearance of rain but we fear it will as heretofore, pass off without giv ing ns the cooling and plentiful visitation we so much need. Yours respectfully, Zebzes. From Moaroe County. The Aevertiser of the 12th instant, has the following: The land belonging to the estate of Wm. L. Fambrough, deoeased, including the residence and other appurtenances thereto attached, was sold last Tuesday at Executor’s sale, and brought $3.G00. This land adjoines the lands of Mr. R. O. Banks, contains three hundred and fifty acres, and is said to be a very desirable piece of property. Another lot, belonging to the estate of Wm. Stallings, Sr., containing about two hundred acres, was sold on the same day for $1,850. The Constitutional Amendments in Virginia. It will be seen that the Legislature on yester day adopted the fourteenth and fifteenth amend ments proposed by Congress to the Constitution of the United States. To the former there were fonr dissenting voices in the Senate and six in the House. The fifteenth amendment passed the House by a unanimous vote, while in the Senate there were two (one colored Radical) east again«t it Thus these two long agitated ques tions are settled in Virginia, and the last bat one of tbs preliminaries to onr admission into the Union, as far ss we have anything to do with them, bronght to a conclusion.—Richmond Dispatch. Some forty years ago Mr. S. W. Davis, a book seller in Cincinnati, extended pecuniary aid to a Mr. B. T. Hanley, almost an entire stranger to him, which saved him from bankruptcy. Mr. Hanley shortly after left Cincinnati for Mis souri, and now he turns np at St. Louis with a fortune of $2,000,000, which he has devised by will to Mr. Davis in consideration of the aid furnished him in his time of need. for the purpose of acting in the capacity of President of the Commercial Convention. He had a grand reception to-day in the east wing of the Court-house. It was a most brilliant affair, : and the distinguished visitor presided over all I with that ease, dignity and grace with which almost tho entire country is familiar. I have not the time to give yon details of what was said and done. Many other men of note are also in the city, among whom I may mention ex-Governor Oglesby, Hon. John C. Breckenridge, ex-Gov- ernor Bramlette, Acting Governor Stephenson, the famous George Francis Train, (who lectured two nights last week in Masonic Temple,) Koop- manchap, the agent for Chinese immigrants, and a host of lesser lights. The committee of arrangements have chosen the Louisville Opera Housq, as the place for the deliberations of the convention. It has the ca pacity to seat about 2,500 persons, but that is not near large enough. It would surprise you to see the gigantio preparations which are going on for the great procession which will come off on Thursday next. Every artist in Louisville is overrun with orders and actively engaged in lettering or de signing, to illustrate the different trades and professions which will be represented in the grand display. Every manufactory, machine shop and foundry will contribute to swell the mighty cavalcade. Railroads, telegraph offices, express companies will likewise lend a helping hand. Everybody seems fully awake to the grand occasion, and from all the indications now around me, I am constrained to believe that wo are going to have the most splendid demon stration ever witnessed in the West. Louisville will be benefitted by this conven tion to the amount of ten millions of dollars. It will give her a notoriety and a more prominent position among her sister cities and rivals. AxrrsniENTs. To-night at the Opera Honse they commence the performance of “Formosa,” a drama which lias created such a sensation in London for near ly a year. Of course it will draw immensely. I realized a pleasure on last Thursday night that I can scarcely describe. It was in listening to tho wonderful performance of Hernandez, on the gnitar. All the most difficult positions and chords seem to him as mere child's play. I doubt as to whether ho has on equal in the world on this sweet instrument. Tho Chapman Sisters aro still drawing finely, at Weissiger Hall. No wonder. They are beau tiful and gifted. BUSINESS ACTTVTTT. The business activity of Louisvilto just now is unprecedented. So heavy is the trade, par ticularly on Main street, that it is literally blocked up with goods and tradesmen from dawn until dark. Tho railroads are crowded with freight and every other day refnse to take any more for shipment. Tho Galt House, than which there are few larger nnd no better hotels, containing about 800 rooms, is filled to its utmost capacity with guests. The Convention is mainly the cause of this, hut it has a fine ran of patronago at all times. It now strikes me that the Convention to be held here this week is littlo else than a mam moth advertising dodge; but even in that light it is a magnificent enterprise, and I say all honor to the cool, calculating brain that conceived it. It will bring together thousands of the best business men in the country, and it is to be trusted that the result of the deliberations will be beneficial to both North and South. It will, lam sure, do a great deal toward healing up the wonnds nnd dissipating the ill feeling engen dered by the war. The people of Louisville are unanimously in favor of extending the most cordial greeting to all who may come, and they hope when the great throng of distingnishe'd guests depart, they will bear with them the gratified feelings of having sojourned among a people always proverbial for the most unbounded hospitality. With the remark that there is to be a grand mu sical festival every night during the sittings of the Convention, and in which every body in the city who can play or Bing is expected to partici pate, I close my harried and incorhorent letter.

Physician for Diseases of the Head, Throat and Lnngs. Editors Telegraph—Sias: Of all the symp toms thst indicate the approach of Consump tion, there is none of such fearful significance as the occurrence of “streaks of blood” in the mucus expectorated. If this symptom does not tell ns that tubercles are now actually deposited, it does tell ns thst the lungs are obstructed and oingestcd, and in a very precarious condition. The quantity of blood brought up from the lungs may vary from a few streaks to one or more pints of pure blood, but the quantity does not increase the danger to the patient. The danger lies in the tubercles, which this symptom tells us are note, or about to be, deposited in the del icate air-tnbes and cells of the lungs, and a few streaks of blood in the sputa are as strong a proof of this as a pint would be. It is very rare, indeed, that life is shortened by reason of the loss of blood from tho lungs. Tho alarm which patients feel at the first sight of blood is natural enough, for they cannot know, what is the fact, that those tcho spit blood from time to time, lice longer, and hate a better chance of cure, than those tcho do not lose a drop. What [is the cause of spitting of blood ? It is caused by whatever obstructs the free passage of the blood through tho pulmonary capillaries. Every pulsation of tho heart pumps into the lnngs, to be distributed over the air-cells, a cer tain quantity of blood. As the heart never ceases its action, and conld not, without stop ping the whole of life, it will be understood that a steady stream of blood is flowing from the heart to the lungs. Now, if the lungs are healthy, this blood becomes purified and ritaliied by ex haling its carbon into the air-cells, and absorb ing oxygen from the air we breathe, and is then again returned to the heart, from whence it goes to nourish and sustain the system. But let us suppose the lungs are obstructed by the presence of tubercles, or by what is quiet as prejndicial, viz : tenacious mucus in the air-tubes. In the first case, the vessels through which the blood mnst pass are obstructed; and in the second, the tabes through which the air passes. The consequence is, that the impure blood flows with difficulty, and often stagnates in the deli cate vessels of the obstructed part. We physi cians say the lung is “congested," by which we mean that the vessels are full almost to barsting, like the vessels of the eye when it is bloodshot. This condition oontinaes for a longer or shorter period, and then the vessels relax and allow the blood to ooze through their coats as fluids do throagh a filter, and the patient coughs it np. If the congestion was considerable, the quantity of blood will be greater; but no matter how much or how little, it indicates that the lungs are in an unhealthy condition—in a word, that the lungs are obstructed. It is the business and the dnty of the physician to discover the nature of the obstruction by a careful examination of the chest, and then to prescribe proper means for its removal. It is a common belief that the blood comes from the breaking of a blood vessel, and this idea is entertained by many physicians. This is no more true than it wonld be to say the bleed ing from the nose comes from the breaking of a blood vesseL The blood merely oozes throngh the coats of the relaxed vessels; in medical phrase, we say it is exhaled. Shonld a vessel of any size actually break, and snch cases have oc curred, though extremely rare, the patient neces sarily bleeds to death, becanse neither medicine nor surgery affords us any means by which we can apply either a stypic, tort ion or the ligature. Bat as this misfortune has never occurred to us in the treatment of many thousands of cases of consumptive disease, its danger is not worth considering. Respectfully, James A. Hl'ntxfi, M.
