The Last Day— 1 This is the last day of 1869. The
old year makes positively its “last appearance on
these boards” to-day. We shall bid it a final good
bye with some regret. It has been a prosperous
year to the city of Macon. Most meu have reaped
a fine harvest as the fruits of their industry. Our
business men will enter into the toils and trials of
1870 with more capital and credit, and more confi
dence, than any year since the dose of the war.
They have done more than command success: they
have deserved it.' Their credit in other dries is
better than that of any other in the South. Well may
it be: it is based npon cotton, 810,000,000 worth
of which will be sold here during this season. This
enormous sum of money is paid into tho hands of
men who come here to spend it—who buy their
plantation supplies, their clothing, their jewels, lit
erature, and educate their children in Macon. Let
money be ever so scarce elsewhere, it ought never
to be here.
1869 really makes an epoch in our history. It is
the first year of genuine prosperity—the first real
step forward—since tho nttcr desolation of tho late
war. We are now no longer beggars, meekly suppli
cating onr conquerore. But there aro plenty of
stores in the smokehouse, plenty of clothing, no
debts which wo cannot discharge, and an ample
cash balance on hand to meet any future' contin
gency. We do not rejoice in our fatness, but sim
ply say to all outside barbarians: Cash on hand to
pay for anything we want from you. Good-bye, old
’69—hope to see many more like you.
Gabden Woee.—Some of our housekeepers are
having their gardens spaded, manured, and other
wise prepared for tho forthcoming crop of vegeta
bles. Wo notice many front yards being cleared
up, the trees pruned, and new ornamontal trees
planted. In this hot climate shade trees around
the house are a positive necessity, even a dire ne
cessity. They are cheap. Ten dollars expended in
this way will get enough for all practical purposes.
There ought always to be a few fruit trees around
the lot—stick them around tho fonce if you have no
other room. A quarter of an aero of ground ought
to afford an abnndance of frait and vegetables for
a family of ten persons. In many portions of Eu
rope people subsist npon less land than that, with
no other source of revenue.
Bat the soil in Macon is poor—very poor. It
must be manured a great deal to produce scarcely
anything at all. Onr choice lots are on the hills—
drenched with the rains of a thousand years. Sev
enty-five per cent, is pure sand—good cotton land,
but in a manner worthless for most vegetables un
less stimulated by guano.
Half Rate Messages.—Tho Western Union Tele
graph Company will receive messages at and for all
stations on their lines, cast of the Mississippi rivor
and west of the province of New Brunswick, for
transmission during the night, at one-half tho usual
tariff rates ; provided, however, that the tolls on
any massage at half rates shall not be less than
twenty cents.
Half rate messages are required to be written
upon half rate message blanks, which can be ob
tained by application at tlie ofilce3 of the Company.
Messages to be transmitted at half Tates will be
received at any hoar during tbo day, between 8
o’clock a. si. and 10 o’clock p. sr., at all offices which
are open between these hours, and nntil 10 o’clock
p. m. at stations which receive night press reports.
The Company receives messages to bo transmit
ted at half rates upon tho express condition that it
shall not be liable for errors or delays in tbo trans
mission or delivery, or tor non-delivery of any mes
sage beyond the amount received for sending the
same.
This arrangement will go into effect January 1,
1870.

H. O. Stephenson, Esq., Macon, Ga. :—
Dear Sir—Yours of 21st in hand. Wo aro labor
ing with oil our might to get on tho Inclined Plane
at Columbus, Ky., by which wo will bo enabled to
pass care across tbo Mississippi Rive? without
chango of bulk. The extraordinary business of this
season lias over croped onr broken down Southern
roads. I am not aware of any road that has been
able to move promptly all tho freight offered, but
havo congratulated myself that wo had been more
fortunate than any of our connections. I havo no
complaint to make against roads who have not been
able to do as well as wo have done, nor do I sympa
thize with that disposition which endeavors to throw
the blame upon their neighbors. Wo trust the end
will show that wo havo not been neglectful, either
of our own interests or tho wants of tho public.
You need hardly be told that wo aro as anxious to
encourago the through trado with Georgia as you
can be, for the simple reason that it is tot onr in
terest, and without assuming any great degree of
intelligence we can seo that far. Again, we say to
onr Georgia friends, that we hopo soon to show
the practical results of onr efforts.

Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
FOB PCBUTING THE B100D.
Tho reputation this ex
cellent medicine enjoys,
is derived from its cures,
many of which are Of a
truly marvellous char
acter. Inveterate cases
of Scrofula, where the
seemed utterly
) to corruption,
led to this com-
of anti-strumous
virtues. Disorders of »
scrofulous type, and af
fections which aro merely
aggravated by tho presence of scrofulous matter,
have been radically cured iu such numerous in
stances, iu every settlement in the country, that the
public ao not need to be informed hero that it is in
most casc3 a specific and absolute remedy.
Scrofulous poison is one of tho most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, tiffs unseen and nufelt
tenant of the organism undermines the constitution,
and invites tho attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases,
lidly develop
cither on the
then, i . .
into ono or other of its hideous forms, <
surface or among tho vitals. In the latter, tuber
cles may bo suddenly deposited in tho lungs or
heart, or tumors formed in the liver. Theso facts
make the occasional use of tho SarsapariUo as a
preventive, advisable.
It is a mistake to suppose that so long as no erup
tions or humors appear, there must bo no scrofulous
taint. Theso forms of derangement may never
occur, and yet tho vital forces of tho body be so re
duced by its subtle agency, a3 materially to impair
the health and shorten tho duration of fife. It is %
common error^ also, that scrofula is strictly heredi-
but is also engendered in persons bom of pure
fonl air, licentious
blood. Low living, indigestion, fonl .
‘ " ‘ sanliness, and the depressing vices gen-
~ eakly constitutions, where not
constant and judicious care,
are peculiarly liable to it. Yet tho robust, also,
whose turbid blood swells tho veins with an appar
ently exuberant vitality, are often contaminated,
and on the road to its consequences. Indeed, no
depend on immunity from
class or condition can ^
it, nor feel insensible to the importance of an effec
tual remedy.

Sarsaparilla, through its purifring power,' re
moves the cause of the disorder andproduces aston

Tho sarsaparilla root of the tropics does not by
itself achieve these results. It ie aided by the ex

potent is this union of healing virtues, Syphilis or
venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cured by

Diseases in general, are commonly soon relieved
and ultimately cured by the Invigorating and puri
fying effect of our Sarsaparilla. Bheumatism
and Oout, often dependenton the accumulations of
extraneous matters in the blood, have their remedy
also in this medicine. For liver Complaints,
torpidity, inflammation, abcess, etc., caused by
rankling poisons in the blood, wo unhesitatingly
recommend the Sarsaparilla.
This medicine restores health and vigor where no
specific disease can he distinguished. Its restora

fever, titc., and indeed all the affec
tions which arise from malarious,
marsh, or miasmatic poisons-
As its name implies, it docs Cure, and doc3 not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bismuth,
Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous substance
whatever, it in nowise injures any patient. Tho
number and importance of its cures in the ague dis
tricts, are literally beyond account, and we believe
without a parallel in the history or medicine. Our
pride is gratified by the acknowledgments we re
ceive of the radical cures effected in obstinate cases,
and where other remedies had wholly failed..
Unacclimated persons, either resident in, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be pro
tected by taking the AGUE CUBE daily.
For liver Complaints, arising from torpidity
of tho Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimulating
the Liver into healthy activity.

YERMIFUGE!
\XTHY is it that so many children die under the
TT age of five years 7 That a large proportion of
children die under that age, has long been a subject
of remark, and without a satisfactory cause ascer
tained, it is certain.
Also, it is known that worms exist in the human
system from its earliest infancy; therefore parents.
especially mothers, who aro more constantly with
their children, cannot be too .observing of the first
symptoms of worms; for so surely as they exist, can
they be

Worm Confections, made more for the purpose of

Messrs. Liwrox & Lawtox, Maeon, Ga.—Gentlemen: In obedience to your request. I take pleasure in
stating that I purchased from you last spring a ton of Merryman’s Raw Brno Super-Phosphate, and applied
it in a very old Cold, planted in cotton. My crop suffered from the dreugat as all other crops did in this see-
tion; but I am satisfied that the land yielded twice as mnehasit wouia have yielded without the manure.
The experiment made by me, satisfies me that it is a valuable manure, very little inferior, if any, to Peruvian
Guano. I am respectfully, etc. A. IVERSON, Sr.
