Ho invites all Repnblican members of the Legislature to be present at the meeting. The Secretary of the Dem ocratic Committee issues a call to Democrats for some purpose on the same day. FROM NEW ORLEANS. New Obleans, December 31—The Mutuals played their picked nine this afternoon. Mutuals victori ous—31 to 15. The proceeds were donated to tho Houso of the Good Shepherd.

Madbid, December 31.—General Pierrad has been released. 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.

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.

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. In St. Anthony's Fire, Bose or Erysipelas, for Tetter, Salt Bheum, Scald Bead, Bing- for Tetter, Salt Bheum, Scald Bead, Bing- xeorm, Sore Ears and Eyes, and other eruptive or visible forms of the diseases caused primarily by tho scrofulous infection, the Sarsaparilla is so ef ficient as to be indispensable. And In the more concealedforms,as! — " Disease, Fits,. affections of tho j Sarsaparilla, through its purifring power,' re moves the cause of the disorder andproduces aston ishing cures. Tho sarsaparilla root of the tropics does not by itself achieve these results. It ie aided by the ex tracts combined with it, of still greater power. So potent is this union of healing virtues, Syphilis or venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cured by vi rr c/ur/ i/io t/ucrututu 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 tive power is soon felt by those who are languid^, Despondent, Sleepless, and filled with any, after taking General Debility, have written us of the youth ful vigor imparted to their netvons system, which' seemed buoyant with that prolific fife they thought had departed on the advance of age.

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. FORSYTH. MONROE COUNTY. GA..
