IfKWM MINERAL SPRINGS.
Wk desire to call the attention of Invalids and of
all persons who may desire to spond the summer
months pleasantly, to our city. Our mineral waters
liavo been carefully analyzed and pronounced un-
i-nrpaascd for their medicinal properties. Many
markable cures have been offocted. Improvements
havo been recently made at the Springs, and they
are acceeeible from all parts of the city. The linn-
ilreda who have annually visited our city can testify,
not only to the value of the miners! water, but to
the hospitality of the citizens. We, therefore, call
the attention of all health or pleasure seekers to
the advantages of onr city. Board and lodging can
ha bad at either of the hotels or with private fami
lies, from 925 to $30 per month. For particulars,
address either Uio McDowell or Yancey llonses.

How We Used to be Putsickkd.—Who does
not remember the time when spring purgation was
considered indispensable to eummor health ? No
matter for wry faces, tho inevitable salts and senna,
rhubarb, or calomel and Jalap, most bo administer
ed. Thcso "spring modicinea,” the youngsters
were told, were to keep them halo and hearty dur
ing the summer. We all know now that this was a
falacy; that new vigor, not depletion, is what is re
quired at the commencement of tiro summer sol
stice. As a preparation for the enervating effects
of opptessivo summer weather, a coarse of Hoe-
tetter's Stomach Bitters is highly expedient This
famous vegetable preparation has three prominent
properties: It renovates, purifies, And regulates
all the functions of the body. It is oompoeed ex
clusively of pure vegetable productions, viz: the
essential principle of Monongabela Rye, and the
most efficacious tonic and alterative roots, barks,
and gums known to medical botanists. Hence, it
is au absolutely safe medicine, and no tincture of
the Pharancopoeia can compare with it either in
purity, or in the variety of its object, and its com
prehensive revolts. Happily for mankind, the the
ory that it was necessary to prostrate a patient in
order to cure him, is forever exploded, and the
true philosophical doctrine, that vigor is the groat
antagonist of disease, has taken its place. Hos-
tetter’s Bitters is an invigorant, and, hence, it is
tho proper medicine for the foeble at this most
trying season of the year.
Be sure that you obtain the genuine article, as
there are innumerable vile imitations in the mar-
ket. Look to the ornamental elamp, the engruvod
label, and the name blown into tho glass. Hostet
ler's Stomach Bitters is sold in tiotties only.
THE PAIN KILLER
May justly he etylod the gTeat medicine of the
world, for there is no region of the globe into
which it has not found its way,and been largely used
and highly priced. Moreover, there is no clime to
which it has not proved to he well adapted for the
cure of a considerable variety of diseases; it is a
ipeedy and safe remedy for burns, scalds, cuts
bruises, wounds and various other in juries, as well
as for dysentery, diarrhea and bowel complaints
generally, it is admirably suited for every race of
men on the face of the globe.
It is a very significant fact, that notwithstanding
the long period of years that the

large, as it is to-day.
Another significant fact is, that nowhere has the
Pain Killer ever been u higher repute, or been
more generally used by fauilies and individnala,
than it has been here at bom.. where it was first

CITY AFFAIRS.
TUESDAY MORNING. JULY 4, 1871.
U''-
AIabble Flood.—Not content with their al
ready superbly famished hotel, the proprietors
of the Brown House are now preparing to lay a
marble floor in the office and reading room. It
will prove an elegant and durable improvement.
Reoovebed.—Mr. Joseph Block was recently
robbed of a quantity of tobacco and cigars, but
nntil Sunday last no cine to the goods or thief
conld be found, when the police dropped in on
a negro named Frank Williams and bagged both.
Much Cooler.—Tho police force of the city
were out yesterday in their new summer uni
forms. The material of which they aro mado is
a very flue article of bine flannel, and the suits
all fit handsomely. They were made by Mr.
Lowenthal, on Mulberry street.
Homicide in Milledgevills. — We learn
from Mr. Benton, one of the kind and polite
operators in the telegraph office, that Mr. Louis
Kenan was killed in Milledgevilla yesterday af
ternoon by Mr. John Strother. No particulars.
It will be remembered by onr readers, howeven
that we have, within the last month or two, no
ticed a shooting affray between the same parties.
The ladies of Mulberry Street Methodist
Chnroh realized about $400 from their festival
and supper on Friday and Saturday nights last.
This will pay nearly one-half of tho balance dne
on their magnificent organ, and wo hope their
next effort will realize to them tho fnll amount
required. By the way, the ladies have onr
thanks for their kind remembrance on Saturday
night, in the shape of a piece of very nice cake.
A Sneak Thief.—A negro girl in the employ
of one of our best families, and who had a
situation so easy and comfortable that it really
spoiled her, stole all of her mistress’ clothing,
on Sunday last, which had been prepared for
the commencement exercises at the College.
Fortunately she was caught and the clothing
recovered. The Mayor sent the mean thief to
jail for thirty days.
Summoned.—It will, perhaps, be very grati
fying to Col. Thos. Hardeman, Jr., who is now
taking his ease at the Indian Spring, to read in
onr telegrams of this morning that he has been
summoned to appear before the Kn-klux com
mittee at Washington. It is so pleasant to
travel in warm, comfortable railroad ears, at
this season, and to testify to the fact that one's
neighbors and friends are not cut-throats and
midnight assassins. Wo congratnlate yon,
Colonel, and, as the boys in gray used to say
to a fellow whom they would catoh with a clean
shirt on, we say to yon, in your cool retreat:
‘Come ont of that.” L ‘
Macon, Jnly 3, 1871.
Mr. Local:—The mean heat for the past
month has been, at 8 o’clock, a. u., 80 degrees;
at 2 f. m 83 4-10ths degrees; at 6 r. m. 86 3-I0tbs
degrees. ,
The amount of rain for the same time was
5 91-100ths inches. There were thirteen days
in which rain fell, varying from 4 100ths to
1 84-100tbs of an Inch.
The aggregate fall, from January 1st to July
1st, foots up 38 56-lOOths inches.
Very respectfully, J. M. Boabdman.
The FoubTh.—Various schemes were being
discussed, yesterday, for amusement to-day.
Some will go fishing; some banting; and others,
and the larger proportion of amusement seekers,
will attend the pic-nics, to two of which the
oommiitees of arrangement have onr thanks for
invitations. Tho one will be given at the ar
mory buildings by the “Active Glee Croquet
Club,” and will be a most pleasant affair, we are
sure, for those who been invited and will at
tend. The other is a basket pio-nio, to be given
at No. 18 (Griswoldville) Central llailroad, for
which the train will leave the passenger depot
at seven o’clock, sharp, this morning. It, also,
will be a most plensant and enjoyable affair,
and the only thing that troubles ns is that wo
cannot possibly attend both.

Crop Situation, and Kerrs Items In South,

CurnBEicr, Jaly 3, 1871.
The lapse of another week has, on the whole,
been favorable to the cotton prospect of this
section of the State. Dry weather has enabled
planters to make some headway against the
grass, which still infests their fields to a formid
able extent. The gray and sandy lands have
improved, while owing to the baking and run
ning together of the soil in the clay districts,
the weed has been checked in its growth and
show3 an abundance of yellow leavesV j J }
J On Sabbath grateful showers fell at Eofanla,
and from Ward's Station to Smithville. The
clond3 indicated similar mercies at points re
mote from the line of railroad. It is astonish
ing how soon vegetation which has been sub
jected to a long continned plethora of moisture,
collapses under the least semblance of drought,
and cries aloud for new supplies of water from
tho windows of Heaven. Verily that elatter
rain" is indeed indispensable to tho husband
man.
Careful inquiry and personal examination
serve bnt to confirm the belief that the cotton
crop of 1871 must fall far short of that of the
previous year. Aside from the reduced acreage,
defective stands will materially diminish the
actual crop under cultivation. Thus one plan
ter from the rich Fowl Town district who seeded
800 acres with cotton, estimates his los3 from
that cause alone at 100 acres. All unite ini
saying also that the plant is several weeks later
than usual, while it will require forcing sea
sons and a very late fall to enable the stnnted
growth of the sandy lands to yield even a half
crop.
Com has deteriorated sadly in appearance,
and will fall short of an average production,
though the increased acreage will probably add
25 per cent to the yield of the past year. /_ :
BRUNSWICK AND ALB ANT BAILBOAD.
Recent events seem to have wrought a change
in the programme of this enterprise. Though
a largo amount has been expended in the-grad
ing between Cnthbert and Ecfaula/ (he work
has been suspended, and the laborers withdrawn,
from that section of the road. It is currently
reported that the redoubtable “H. L" will now
direct every energy to the completion of the
Brunswick Road to this point, where it will
stop for the present, and then fall to work with
all his might upon the Bainbridge, Cnthbert
and Colnmbus Hoad, of whioh he is also Presi
dent.
Onr readers must determine what Mr. Op-
dike and President Hazlbhurst’s purchase of the
Montgomery and Eufanla Railroad has had to
do with this. At all events, it is an ill wind
that blows no good to anyone, and Cnthbert
will be largely tho gainer by the change.
In pursuance of tho above movement, the
penitentiary convicts passed through this place
in chains, on Friday, on the back track of the
Brunswick and Albany Railroad. They were a
wretched and hardened looking crew.
ACCIDENT ON THE SOUTHWESTERN BAILBOAD.
The writer, on his return trip over this road,
whioh'has done so much nt private cost to res
cue, this fertile portion of the State from the
wilderness, found the track in apple pie order,
and rolling stock, engines and passenger cars
sll in a neat and efficient condition. The con
ductors and train bands were also at their
posts, and as obliging and polite as ever.
At Dawson, whilst coupling two freight cars,
the attentive baggage master, Mr. Crawford
Smith, had the fingers of one of his hands ter
ribly crushed betwoen them. Unable to disen
gage the wounded member, the poor fellow was
compelled to remain in that condition for seve
ral minutes, nntil the engineer at the far end of
the train conld be signalled to move forward
slightly and thus effect his release. Mr. Smith
bore his sufferings with the heroism which
might be expected from one of Pat Cleburne’s
braves, whose cheek had never blanched amid
the thunders of battle. J.

Jefferson on Nepotism.—At tho heel of the
twenty-threo appointments of his relatives to
office by President Grant, the World prints the
following letter from President Jefferson to his
relatives, George Jefferson, recognizing the
fact that the former conld not, with proper del-
icaoy, appoint his relatives to office :
Deab Sib : I have to acknowledge the receipt
of yours of March 4; and to express to yon the
delight with which I found the just, disinter
ested, and honorable point of view in which you
saw the proposition it covered. The resolution
you so properly approvedhad long been formed
in my mind. The public will never be made to
believe that an appointment of a relative is
made on the ground of merit alone, uninflu
enced by family views; nor can they ever see,
with approbation, offices, the disposal of which
they intrust to their Presidents for public pur
poses, divided out as family property. Mr.
Adams degraded himself infinitely by his oon-
dnet on this subject, as Washington had done
himself the greatest honor. With two such ex
amples to proceed by, I should be doubly inex
cusable to err. It is true that this places the
relation of the President in a worse situation
than if he were a stranger; but the public
good, which cannot be effected if its confidence
be lost, requires this sacrifice. Perhap3, too,
it is compensated by sharing in the public
esteem. I conld not be satisfied till I assured
you of the increased esteem with which this
transaction fills me for you. Accept my affec
tionate expression of it. Th. Jefferson.

Negro Kn-klux.
Augusta, July 3.—On Saturday last 25 armed
negroes went to the plantation of Angus Red,
in Bamweil county, S. O., about 12 miles be
low Augusta, on the Savannah River. Arriving
at Red’s residence, the party fired a volley into
it, killing Thos'. A. Lowe and seriously wound
ing Red and his wife and mother. After dis
arming Red, the negroes returned to Paul F.
Hammond’s plantation, where the deputy sheriff
tried to arrest them, but without success, as
they refused to disarm. The negroes, however,
promised to go to Aiken and stand an igvestiga-
tion. One of the parties implicated was arrest
ed here this evening. His version is that Red
and Lowe attempted to chastise a negro for
stealing from the premises of the former; that
the negro escaped from them, and returned
with an armed band who did the shooting, by
way of retaliation. Tho affair causes uneasi
ness and alarm. The party arrested in this city
represents himself as a school teacher, and says
he was on his way to Aiken to deliver himself

The official report of the board of visitors to
the military academy at West Point was re
ceived to-day. The board is generally satisfied
with the appearance of things at the academy;
but makes some importaint recommendations
concerning the course of study, and the neces*
sity for lengthening the time of probate at the
academy. Some of the members urge a return
to the vigorous discipline of 25 years of ago,
when the sons of rich and poor men stood on
equal footing. They consider that the influx
of fashionable life at West Point has been in
strumental in rendering the system of discip
line too lax for the requirements of a proper
military education. The board also urges that

THE WINSHIP COTTON GIN.
Ahead of All Competition.
AWARDED TWO FIRST PREMIUMS AT STATE
FAIRS IN 1870.
A T a test of nine of the leading Gina of this
country, exhibited at the Cotton States Me
chanics’ and Agricultural Fair Association, held in
Augusta, in 1870, the trial resulted as follows:
Pounds
cotton. Time.
Winn’s Gin .45 saws. 185 13:30 m
Carver Gin 60 saws. 150 12:20 m
Pratt Gin 45 saws. 135 12:00 m
Massey’s Griswold Gin.:. .45 saws. 135 10:30 m
Nisbett & Goodrich Gin. ..45 Baws. 135 11:15 m
Morris Gin 60 saws. 150 12:30 m
Gullett’s Steel Brush Gin. .60 saws. 180 10:05 m
The Winship Gin, - 50 saws. 150 6:50111
Hall’s Gin and Feeder 60 saws. 160 8.40 m
The Gins were all run by a steam engine, and at
high speed. The Committee on Machinery had th&
cotton weighed np for each Gin according to size,
all out of tha same cotton, three pounds for each
saw. These Gins are all made alike, tor service and
durability—put up in good style in a substantial
and workmanlike manner.underthe personal super
vision of Mr. JOHN WINS HIP, a first-class ma
chinist of more than twenty years’ practical experi
ence-giving bis exclusive attention to the manu
facture and improvement of Cotton Gins. Those
wanting Gins can find them with numbers of testi
monials as to fast work—picking seeds clean, and
leaviog lint in good condition, making it sample
well. 40. 45, 50 and 60 saws kept constantly in
stock. Price, $4 per saw.

PATENT EXCELSIOR COTTON GIN
F OR the past forty years I havo boen engaged in
the manufacture of Cotton Gins, and havo set
to work on plantations, and have eaen in operation
hundreds of Gins, and have no hesitancy in pro
nouncing thia the BEST WORKING GIN I ever
saw. It runs light—gins fast—does not injure the
cotton—impossible to break the roll—no use for
self-feeders—and no trouble to fosd. The commit
tee at the late Bibb County Agricultural Fair, being
so well satisfied or its superiority over anything
they ever saw, awarded me the premium. I am
now prepared to famish any one in want of a Gin.
A sample of Excelsior and also of the Griswold
Gin can be seen at Carhart A Curd’s Hardware
Store, Macon, Ga. Send for desepriptive Hat.
