We hope every one of our subscribers to w hom we thus give notice will promptly renew. On oar tint page to-day will be found an in teresting personal correspondence between Gov. Smith and Ex-Gov. Johnson, which we tract will be o!' interest to our readers. Mr. T. J. Lanier, of the Telegraph & Mes senger, spent a day in town last week. Business. —in the course of two or three weeks we shall commence sending out bills to those of our patrons who are in arrears, and trust they will lose no time in honoring them. Fn e ! Fii.e !! Our city fathers have become ;1 .rined lest our fast growing nv. trs polis should he destroyed by the raging clement, and have decided to sink two new wells, and provide tu> to wn w ith a fire extinguishing apparatus of homo’ci'nd. The attention ofvmr readers is called to the advertisement of Georgia State Fair iu an other coluin a to-day. T A T e have no doubt the occasion wilt be an interes'C-ng one, and those who can’t compete for ]>i\unimns diould goaud hoc the fine display. It will well v~pwy the .small outlay.

Some of the mail agents on the line inform us Hint the up mail is sent down and the down in ail sent up. Heigho, Doctor, can this be true, and if so, how many. Owing to the trouble and labor incident to our removal and rearrangements in our now quarters, we hope cur readers will excuse the appearance of this and our last week’s issues. As soon as wo get properly fixed up we will make amends for past deficiencies, and hope our triends will indulge us for a little while. Dentist Wanted. -Why, in the name of all that w. 13 ever ehewe , don’t some tooth tinker cast his line in these whereabouts? Every gardener’s rake around town is in need of one, and Attaway’s old saw is about gone up. He just has to “guru it” now\ and fill up the iuter v,.ls n v 1 ich lie has nothing else to do, by pr v riein., “ Hie Star Sp uigLd Banner’’ on his steam flute. And then, the old maids are tooth less, and the young maids want tooth powder, and, altogether, a dentist Is the thing that’s needed. In another column of our to-day’s issue will be louud the advertisement of the National Hotel, Macon, Ga. As the name is in latter years a forgotten one, we will state that Mr. P. Whelan, who has been for twenty years past connected with the C. R. Ik, and probably as widely known to the traveling pubiic as any man in Georgia, has bought out the old Spots wood, and having thoroughly refitted it Irom garret to cellar and added many new improve ments, has restored it to its original name oi the “National,” and thrown wide is hospitable doors to the accommodation of the traveling public. Were it not for the sad degeneracy ot newspaper encomiums into paid advertise ments, where the editor dupes his readers for a paltry consideration, we would bestow what we I feel to be a merited compliment, but lest the public should suspect us ot interested motives in the matter, we will only say to our friends that when they go to Macon to visit the Nation al one time, and see if they are not satisfied with the treatment they receive.
