We, therefore, call the attention of all health or pleasure seekers to the advantages of onr city.

Jnn20 2 m 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 PAIKT KXLLEH. Has been before the world, it has never lost whit of its popularity, but, on the contrary, call for it has steadily increased from its first fovery, and at no previous time has the demand for it been so great, or the quantity made been 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 diacovered and introduced. That the Pain Killer *01 continue to be, what we have sty led it, The Great Medicine of tlie World Here cannot be the shadow of a donbL—TVori- dfnee Adverlittr. june 2-oodAlm. one the t dis- NEW YORK PRIVATE QOUTHERNERS visiting New York can KJ comfortable rooms and superior board west Thirty-third street, near Broadway, * immediate vicinity of tho Fifth Avenue and prominent hotels. Refers in Macon, by permission, to Judge Ward •nd J tinea Seymour, Esq. june25 2tw2w BOARD 2nd at 53 in the other 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. Wood Handled Fluting Scissors, all sizes, at B. A.

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. DAY DISPATCHES.

The military were called out, and the mob dispersed upon the reading of the riot act. The pioneer of the Bristol and New York line, the Arragon, sailed from Bristol on Saturday. Thousands of spec tators cheered her off. 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. Scene from Sbakspcnre. Alonzo—Varlet! My Bride hath come ; Say, hast thou due preparation made, as I commanded? Skibbo—I have, my Lord.

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 np to the authorities. Washington, July 3.—Colfax, in a letter to the Indianapolis’Journal, reiterates his deter mination to retire from publio life after the ex piration of his present term.

Washington, July 3.—Elias Smith, of Gal veston, has been appoined special agent for Tusas on mail depredations. Collector Warner goes to Mobile to-night, via Ohio, where he stops one day. 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 more attention be paid to teaching the Spanish language, and hope that Congress will give proper and efficient support to this national in- stituion.
