Special Cor. of the Constitution.]
Augusty, May 12,1870.
Editor Comtdidton ■: J don’t see you
in thus lovely city. You ought to have
come. You don’t knew what you
have missed. I lore Augusty; I love
her beautiful streets; her venerable
buddings and the time-honored names
that overhang their doors; I love her
evergreens anil flowers; I love her
Planter’s Hotel and Mr. Goldstein; I
i love her Fair Grounds and fair sex;
her matrons and her maidens, (that
las love is an extract from Mr. How
ard's 6{>eech, you cau keep it out of
the copy you send to my house;) 1
love her street cars ut 1U cents a ride;
her noble tiremeu; her beautiful Fire
Engines and Big fciteve. 1 love every
thing in Augusty and especially her
many Conventions to which everybody
and his wife goes free. But, Mr. Edi
tor, I deem it my duty to tell Atlanty
her impending danger. You haven’t
got any May Convention. You hav’nt
got no long railroad with 1,300 stock
noltlers I tell you it’s a whale.
Think 11 corporation 170 miles
long, (besides three or four branches,)
and with 1,300 stockholders, nil born
iu Augusty. The power of that Con
vention is tremendous. There sat old
John P., looking like a King. There
was Athens, Madison and Covington
and Washington. There was all the
Bap iat Colleges and Methodist Socie
ties with their stocks in their pockets.
There was delegates from cross roads
and mountain gaps and river landings
and slate quarries, ail come to build up
and sustain Augusty. Everybody f> r
the Georgia Railroad, and ail wanted
to put tueir shoulders to the wheel
and ; ‘do s miethiug.” 1 never saw
such an undyin affection for any one
town.
The King had hardly got upon his
thrown bes *ie a tuue-homnvd and fa
miliar voice said, “Air. President. 1
am a frien Ito Augusty. I have al
ways been a friend to this beautiful ci
ty. I am a friend to this Road. I
take delight in her prosperity, and to
ensure this prosperity and put it be
yond all peradventure, I will state that
wo are building a K alroud from Car
tersville to Van Wert, and with your j
f ieudly aid we propose to go ou, and j
on, and on until we tap the Mississippi j
river and bring her last Cutlisn to the ;
citv of Augusta. Since the human j
iwiid cannot foresee the beneiitj than
the speedy extension of this road will
bring to the Georgy Road and the u-;
ty of Augusta.” Many more pertinent;
remarks were made. About this time
I hcaid a Rabun Gup man inquire j
.*utw is this pLa© they et 11
Van Dirt? • ■
The next address was delivered by a
Grifiin gentleman, full of fire and feel
in for Gri—rio—Augusta. If, said he,
the Georgy Road would only build a
road acro.-vs Rom Griftiu to Covington,
her prosperity aiel progress would be
greatly enhanced. Only 37 mites
would c*«t oti - ilia triangle. Grifii.i
w.is in love with Augusta. She hud
no love for Macon or Savannah. It
was over forty miles out of the way to
go round by Atlanta; and there was
the rich county of Henry, that was
now covered up and hemmed iu by
two great lines of railroads. The citi
zens of Henry didn't know whether to
trade with Gfifiiu or Atlanta, or Cov
ington, but ii this railroad was built
they would all go to Augusta.
A distinguish* and gentleman from
Covington next arose, and only want
ed to add a word iu behalf of this
great enterprise. He said, Mr. Presi
dent: “Born, sir, iu a land of Augusty,
with every pulse in my right arui
throbbing to her success, I hope, sir,
that this Road will be built.” He
said several more .similar words.
About this time arose a member
from Gunter’s Lauding, one of Car
hsle’s earnest men who says he is 5 feet
ti and a half. I don’t mean that he
said this in his speech; but he did
say that, in his judgment, it would
greatly conduce to the interest of the
Georgy Road and Augusty, if the)
would help his people build a road
from Guutersville to Gadsden and
then from Gadsden to Allanty. But
it was to be understood that the Gnu
tersville end was to be built first, and
the other end could float around loose
for a while.
The next proposition came from
Clark county or the thereabouts, in
winch the distinguished speaker said
that 40 or 400 years ago (I dident
distinctly understand which) it was de
cided that tHe true line of the Gorgy
Road was through Athens and Ra
bun Gap to the Mississippi. Time 1
hud strengthened and developed the
truth of this route. It ought to be
clone now. It was for tlm interest of
the roud and Augusty to do it. It is
ruinous to delay. Book at Atlanty
with her Air Line, bhe is going to
sap the very foundations of North
East Gorgy. There is but oue ridge
in all that country that a railroad can
be built on. That is O'lattabo.ichee
ridge. We must git t.h it ridge first
and bold it. Atkin*y is making for it.
Let us get ahead of her and then her
Air Line will dry up. Mr. Christy
says the Air Lino ingoing to Charlotte
lias nothing to trade on but Chinka
pins, and A;lardy hasn't got nothing
of its own, but Cbankupines and he
never knew anything rm.de a swappin
Chinkapine. But, sir. I tell you, Mr.
President, Mi*. Christy is mistaken;
that Air-Line is going to ruin Ath
no Augusty.
A gentleman from Wilkes rose for
ward twice and said, “that if they
wanted a road to Rabun Gap, the true
line was to extend the Washington
Branch, and ho would suggest the ta
kin up the road from Union Point to
Athens and lap it on to the Washing
ton Branch, and it would mighty nigh
reach the Gap. He said his people
would help; he knew several men who
had laid up a little surplus money that
they was goin to put into Gewano next
year, and he would advise ’em to put
it in the railroad; he knew one man
1 who had S3OO.
The next project proposed was a
branch ro id from the city of Ratio lge
to Big Shanty, which would shorten
the line from Augusta to Chattannoo
ga 2T miles, and get all the cotton
yarns from Roswell factory.
I felt like I should have been better
off if I had staid at home, for you see,
Mr. Editor, I had an ax to grind my
self, and the grindstone wore off be
fore my turn come. Nevertheless, I
made a hypothenuse toward the King,
and sez 1, “Mr. King, this Road has
got a heap of chiideu—some of ’em le
gitimate, and some of ’em under bond
but I fear you have forgotten a step
child of yours up about Rome, that’s
been workin’ hard for its step-daddy
these 20 odd years. 11l say this much
forthe poor cast off thing. It’s only
20 miles long, but it’s made 4 times as
much money for yon as the Athens
branch of 40 miles, or any other
branch. 1 think it you will run it out
to Wills Valley, (about 44 miles fur
ther,) that it will do m< re than R .bun
Gap, or any other gap. Besides this,
Mr. King, sur, I desire you to under
stand that I think the extension of tbe
Rome Road will help Rome.” Mr.
King bowed graciously to me, and I
think he will do sumthin’.
The whole was wound up by Air.
Wyman, who rose and sed: Mr. King,
Mr. King, I say, Mr. King—l am a
poor man, aud very humble, and ain’t
got no stock m the road, and wasn’t
born in Augusty; but I’ve invented a
balloon that will save the trouble of
budding all the roads, and I think will
bef]) Augusty.
Whereupon Mr. Colien politely in
formed the gentleman that he bad bet
ter go out to the fair ground with his
balloon. He lugged pardon and re
tired.
Mr. Peters didn’t say a word out
loud —join' Air. Peters, I mean—but
I heard him soliloquise:
‘Tell me, ye winds, do ye not know
some spot,
Where our Atlanty is, and Augus
ty is not ? ’
About this time Mr. For ter of Mad
ison, was going around trying to sell
his stoc k. I axed him what was the
matter, and ho said if they was going
to build roads from Nova Skoshy to
Van Dirt and every little sea poit on
the Tennessee river, there would be
assessments instead of dividends, and
he wass goin to sell out, or pull out,
or kick out, or renig. He said Au
gusty had too many friends for a Mad
ison man.
Yours iu haste,
Bill Arp.
p. S. Tell Mr. Peters aud Mr. Hill
yer to hurry up the Air-Line—make
for the Chattoboochee Ridge early,
but see to it that George don’t go by
Alueus. Ho was Lorn there, and they
v ited for him, and human nature is
unity weak. B.

It is not necessary to journey from the
tropics to Alaska in order to experience the
extremes of heat and cold. Thousands un
dergo all the inconveniences of this ther
mometrical change every day. or every oth
er day. as the case may be, without the troub
le of moving over the threshold. A word
with these involuntary shakers. What are
they doing to expedite their return to a me
dium temperature?—to break the chills and
banish the fever? Are they dosing them
selves with quinine, thereby imperilling the
soundness of their bones and impairing the
vigor of their brains and nervous system ?
Some of them are, no doubt, but not the ma
jority of them, it is believed. The value of
llostctter’s Stomach Bitters as a harmless
and certain specific for fever and ague is
understood and appreciated in all parts of
the country where intermittents prevail.—
The residents of such localities begin to take
it early in the spring as a protection against
themisasma by which they are surrounded;
not all of them, perhaps, for a blind adher
ence to error is the specialty of some people,
but the greater number of them.
If there is any fixed fact in therapeutics,
it is this: that the Bitters are a far better
safeguard against all the varieties of the pe
riodic maladies produced by unwholesome
exhalations than any drug or compound in
the materia medica of the profession. This
assertion is made with all due respect to the
faculty, but being an important truth, and
one that nearly concerns the health of large
settlements in various parts of the country,
and indeed of the public at large, it is made
fearlessly. Founded on ample and unim
peachable testimony, it defies disapproval.
To breakup chills and fevers, as well as
to prevent them, there is nothing so reliable
as this wholesome vegetable restorative,

Allow me to call vour attention to my
Preparation of Compound
Extract Buchu.
The component parts are BUCHU
LONG LEAF, CUBEBS, JUNIPER
BERRIES.
A! ode of Preparation.— Buclm, in
vacuo. Juniper Bcries, by distillation, to form a fine
Kin. Cubebs extracted by displacement with spirits
spirits obtained from Junlp r Berries: very little
is used, and a small proportion of spirit. It is
more palateable Dan any now in use.
Buchu, as prepared by Druggist*, is of a light color.
It is a plant that emits its fragrance ; the action of a
fliime destroys this (its active urinctple,) leaving a
dark and glutinous decoction. Mine is the color of
ingredients. The Buchu In my preparation predomi
nates; the smallest quantity of the other ingredients
are added, to prevent fermentation ; upon Inspec
tion, it will be found not to be a Tincture, as tnade
in Pharruacopcea, nor Is it a Syrup—and therefore
cm be used in cases where fever or inflammation ex
ist. In this,you have the knowledge of (he ingredi
ents and the mode of preparation.
Hoping that you will favor it with a trial, and that
upon inspection it will meet with your approbation,
With a feeling of confidence,
I am very respectfully youra,

Ayer’s Cathartic Pills,
For all the purposes of a I^axatire
Medicine.
Perhaps no one medi-
Mjm cine is so universally
required by eveiy
jgw body as a cathartic,
nor was ever any be*
BKJI fore so universally
1 im\ adopted into use, in
1 i\ _s§j?/ every country and
lArSPiBTfSSf/ among all classes, as
V w this mild but efficient
purgative Pill. The
siias* 1 obvious reason is,
that it is more rclia
■- ■■■ " T ” 1 ble and far more ef
fectual remedy than any other. Those who have
tried it, know that it cured them; those who have
not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends;
and all know that what it does once it docs al
ways that it never fails through any fault or neg
glect of its composition. We have thousands upon
thousands of certificates of their remarkable cures
of the following complaints, but such cures are
known in every neighborhood, and we need not
publish them. Adapted to all ages and conditions
in all climates; containing neither calomel nor any
deleterious drug, they may be taken with safety
by anybody. Their sugar-coating preserves them
ever fresh, and makes them pleasant to take, while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from
their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
internal viscera to purify tho blood and stimulate
it into healthy action remove the obstructions
of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of
the body, restoring their irregular action to health,
and by correcting, wherever they exist, such de
rangements as are the first origin of disease.
Minute directions are given In the wrapper on
the box, for the following complaints, which these
Pills rapidly cure:
For Dyipsptia or Indigestion, listless
ness, languor and Loss of Appetite, they
should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom
ach, and restore its healthy tone and action.
For Idver Complaint and its various symp
toms, Bilious Headache, Sick Head
ache, Jaundice or Green Sickness, Bil
ious Colic and Bilious Fevers, they should
be judiciously taken for each case, to correct the
diseased action or remove the obstructions which
cause it.
For Dysentery or Diarrhoea, but one
mild dose is generally required.
For Rheumatism, Gout, Gravel, Pal-
S itatlon of the Heart, Pain in the
ide, Back and loins, they should be contin
uously taken, as required, to change the diseased
action of the system. With such change those
complaints disappear. %
For Dropsy and Dropsical Swellings
they should be taken in large and frequent doses
to produce the effect of a drastic purge.
For Suppression a large dose should be
taken as it produces the desired effect by sym
pathy.
Asa Dinner Pill, take one or two Pills to
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite,
and invigorates the system. Hence it is often ad
vantageous where no serious derangement exists.
One who feels tolerably well, often finds that a
dose of these Pills makes him feel decidedly bet
ter, from their cleansing and renovating effect on
the digestive apparatus.
