Friday Morning, March 39, 1877.
Blustering March.
This is good Friday.
More cold, icy weather.
March goes out like a lion.
They say Archer killed cock-robin.
Bradley guanos are the best in
Georgia.

The March winds play pranks with
the men’s hats.
Judge Rice is rapidly disposing of
the civil docket.
And the tierce zephyrs* play havoc

We are now on the second edition
of Superior Court.
Our shooting gal—ery shot away
like a shooting star.
Sunday next is all fool’s day and is
Easter Sunday also.
And still the report is, that the
poaches are not all killed.
Both the town pumps have resumed
their aqueous discharges.
Col. Pike, of Jefferson, was in the
city, attending court this week.

The marshal having a due regard
for the store windows, has put a period
to the ball playing on the square.
T. A. Panel has started a portion of
the machinery in his new shops, and

Pacific has been tested by other
brands, and is eepial to any and
cheaper.
The Bradley guanos sold by H. At
kins & Cos. have given better satisfac
tiou~to the farmers than any other. It
is the best.
When you pass a farmer’s wagon

your olfactories saluted with the per
fume of the festive jo-anner.
“It is true that half of the world do
not know how the other half live.”
And it is also true that they would’nt
care a cent if they did.
Our Sheriff and his deputy are giv
ing general satisfaction. They are

little more experience.
When you see a miu footing it out of

safely say that he has just escaped
from the horse swapper’s brigade.

the smail sum of one dollar and ten
cents, you cau buy from Dr. Bradley

will try it again.
W. S. Williams (at J. F. Law’s old

good shoes, hay, meal, corn, etc., which
he proposes to sell cheap for cash.
Special attention is directed to the
Governor’s proclamation, which ap

first importance to all the people of
Georgia, aud we hope our readers will
read it carefully and govern themselves
accordingly.

We would call particular attention
to the advertisement of Dr. H. J.
Long’s new drug store, which appears
in to-day’s issue. The Doctor has a
fine stock of pure fresh drugs, and is
prepared to furnish his customers with
articles in his lino on the most accom
modating terms. Call and give him a
trial.
The Trial of .Tulin Hunter.
The case of John Hunter, who was
charged with the murder of John M.
Evans, and which was begun on
Thursday of last week, occupied the
remaining portion of the week. There
were a great many witnesses sworn
and several attempts made at impeach
ment, some of which were successful.
On Saturday morning the argument
began. Jesse Thrasher, Esq., of Mt.
Airy, who was assisting the State, led
oft'. Col. Dorsey then made one of his
finest efforts. This speech was sound,
logical and argumentative. Indeed it
was pronounced by many who listened
to it as the ablest effort of bis life.
Col. Langston followed in behalf of the
prisoner in a speech of more than two
hours length, in which he acquitted
himself nobly. He was deeply inter
ested in his case, and when the Colo
nel is thorougly aroused, no man can
enter more zealously into a case or do
fuller justice to the occasion. Solici
tor Mitchell made a splendid speech
in behalf of the State. Mr. Mitchell,
although a young man, is a fine law
yer, and the State in this case was
ably and faithful represented.
A great deal of interest was felt by
the citizens generally, and the Court
room was thronged with anxious spec
tators. The argument having closed,
Judge Rice proceeded to charge the
jury in a clear, comprehensive and for
cible manner. The jurv retired to
their room at 8 o’clock, the ci’owd lin
gering around the bar, many suppos
ing that the verdict would be made up
in fifteen minutes; others gave half
hour, some two hours and so on.
Therefore speculation was rife as to
how long it would require for the jury
to agree; but after they had been in
their room one hour and there was no
sound nor sign of a verdict the friends
of Hunter grew anxious and somewhat
restless. Ten o’clock came, eleven
o’clock, and yet no verdict. Judge
Rice was out walking about for recrea
tion returning and resuming his chair
shortly after eleven the hand on thß
clock pointed to 11,50, when the pris
oner, who had been remanded to jail
was brought into the room. The
Judge summoned the jury into his
preusence just four minutes before 12
o’clock, and stated to them that if they
had not made up their verdict he
would have them taken to their room
at the hotel to be kept until half past
8 o’clock monday morning, when they
would again be brought to the jury
room. The sheriff took the prisoner
back to jail, Bailiff took the jury to
their room at the hotel, and the crowd
that had lingered so long, slowly dis
persed. At half-past 8 o’clock Monday
morning, the jury were returned to
their room and in a few minutes came
out with their verdict of ‘Not guilty’
which caused some cheering among the
spectators.
Mr. Hunter has borne himself with
remarkable fortitude, and has been
cheerful aud hopeful all the time. He
has conversed freely with his friends
expressing a feeling of confideuca in
his acquittal. We trust that he will
ever keep iu mind the caution given
him by Judge Rice, after the reading
of the verdict.

The Teeth.
There are two sets of teeth, the tem
porary and permanent. The former
are intended by nature to remain only
during the years of childhood, or until
the maxillary bones become sufficiently
expanded to afford room for the latter.
The temporary or first teeth number
twenty in all—ten in either jaw, viz:
Four incisors, two cuspids and four
molers. The following table, giving
the order of teething, may be con
sidered a fair average—the lower teeth
usually preceding the upper by a short
interval:
Months after birth.
Central incisors from 5 to 8
Laterals from 7 to 10
Anterior molers from 12 to 16
Cuspids or canines from 14 to 20
Posterior molers 18 to 36
Many persons think that as the tem
porary teeth are intended to subserve
■the wants of the body only for a short
time, and are to be replaced by others,
it is a matter of no consequence if they
do decay and are lost before the.second
ones are ready to take their places.—
This is a mistaken i lea. Not only the
beauty, regularity and durability of the
permanent teeth, but also the proper
development and contour of the jaws,
depends to a very great extent upon
the healthy condition of the temporary
teeth. These teeth should often be
examined by an intelligent dentist,
and if carious, they may be filled to
prevent them from being lost too
early. By ordinary care the child may
be spared attacks of toothache during
that tender age when it cannot last
long without causing serious constitu
tional disturbance. It is very impor
tant that the child’s teeth should be
thoroughly cleansed daily. This should
be attended to by the mother or nurse
until the child is old enough to do it
itself. Another great error is often
made by parents in mistaking the six
year old molers for temporary teeth,
when they are the first permanent
teeth, and are a wise provision of na
ture —serving a two fold purpose—first
by giving support to the jaws during
the shedding of the temporary teeth,
and secondly by subserving the pur
pose of mastication during the pi'oeess.
Often the ugliest cases of irregularity
may be corrected by placing your chil
dren under the immediate care of the
skillful dentist. Have them visit his
office at least every few months. *

WHAT I KNOW ABOUT VEGETINE.
• South Boston, May 9,1870.
11. K. Stevens, Esq.:
Dear Sir—l have had considerable experience
with the Vegetine. For dyspepsia, general
debility, and impure blood, the Vegetine is su
perior to anything which I have ever used. I
commenced taking Vegetine about the middle
of last winter, and, after using a few bottles, it
entirely cured me of dyspepsia, and my blood
never was in so good cohdtion as at the present
time. It will afford me pleasure to give any
further particulars relative to what I know
about this good medicine to any one who will
call or address mo at my residence, 386 Athena
street. Very respectfully,
MONROE PARKER,
386 Athens street.
Dyspepsia.
SYMPTOMS.—Want of appetite, rising of food
and wind from the stomach, acidity of the stom
ach, heartburn, dryness and whiteness of the
tongue in the morning, sense of distension in the
stomach and bowels, sometimes rumbling and
pain; costiveness, which is occasionally inter
rupted by diarrhoea; paleness of the urine. The
mouth is clammy, or has a sour or bitter taste.
Other frequent symptoms are waterbrash, palpi
tation of the heart, headache, and disorders of
the senses, as seeing double, etc. There is gen
eral debility, languor and aversion to motion ;
dejection of the spirits, disturbed sleep, .and
frightful dreams.
Gained Fifteen Pounds of Flesh.
South Berwick, Me., Jan. 17,1872,
H. R. Stevens, Esq.:
Dear Sir—l have had dyspepsia in its worst
form for the last ten years, and have taken
hundreds of dollars’ worth of medicine without
obtaining any relief. In September last I com
menced taking the Vegetine, since which time
my health has steadily improved. My food di
§ests well, and 1 have gained fifteen pounds of
esh. There are several others in this place
taking the Vegetine, and all have obtained
relief. Yours truly,
THOMAS E. MOORE,
Overseer of Card Room, Portsmouth Co.’s Mills.

Natick, Mass., June 1, 1872.
Mr. H. R. Stevens :
Dear Sir —Through the advice and earnest
persuasion of the Rev. E. S. Best, of this place,
I have been taking Vegetine for dyspepsia, of
which 1 have suffered for years.
I have used only two bottles, and already feel
myself anew man. Respectfully,
Dr. J. W. CARTER.
GOOD EVIDENCE.
Cincinnati, Nov. 26, 1872.
Mr. H. R. Stevens:
Dear Sir—The two bottles of Vegetine fur
nished me by your agent my wife has used with
great benefit.
For a long time she has been troubled with
dizziness and eostiveness; these troubles are
now entirely removed by the use of Vegetine.
She was also troubled with dyspepsia and gen
eral debility, and has been greatly benefited.
THOMAS GILMORE,
229% Walnut street.
RELIABLE EVIDENCE.
Mr. H. R. Stevens:
Dear Sir—l will most cheerfully add my testi
mony to the great number you have already re
ceived in favor of your great and good medicine,
Vegetine, for I do not think enough can be said
in its praise, for I was troubled over thirty years
with that dreadful disease, Catarrh, and had
such bad coughing spells that it would seem as
though I could never breathe any more, and
Vegetine has cured me; and I do feel to thank
God all the time that there is so good a medicine
as Vegetine, aud I also think it one of the best
medicines for coughs and weak sinking feelings
at the stomach, and advise everybody to take the
Vegetine, for I can assure them it is one of the
best medicines that ever was.

APPRECIATION,
Charlestown, Mass., March ID, 1869.
H. K. Stevens:
This is to certify that I have used your “Blood
Preparation” (Vegetine) iu my family for
several years, aud think that, for Scrofula or
Cankerous Humors or Rheumatic affections, it
cannot be excelled; and as a blood purifier and
spring medicine it is the best thing I have ever
used; and I have used almost everything. I can
cheerfully recommend it to any one in need of
such a medicine. Yours respectfullv,

Ayer’s Cathartic Pills,
For all the purposes of a Family Physic,
and for curing Costiveness, Jaundice,
Indigestion, Foul Stomach, Breath,
Headache. Erysipelas. Rheumatism,
Eruptions and Skin Diseases, Bil
iousness, Dropsy, Tumors, Worms,
Neuralgia, as a Dinner Fill,
for Purifying the Blood.
Are the most ef
fective and conge
nial purgative ever
discovered. They
are mild, but ef
fectual in their
operation, moving
the bowels surely
and without pain.
Although gentle
in their operation,
they are still the
| most thorough and
searching catliar-
tic medicine that can be employed : cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses of one pill a day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
Ayer’s Pills have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and have
obtained a world-wide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
•the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc
tions within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the every-day complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
ful effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they gripe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills 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.
