H'bnl Khali we Eat; and How 1*1- gcst It ?—No. I. Editor* 7 degraph and Messenger : Some time since, I read an editorial in yonr paper which discussed the following query: “What shall we eat, and how cook it ?” As a seqnel to tbs forgoing inquiry, and which is of paramount importance In its bearing upon physical health, is tho query, what shall wo eat, and bo* digest it ? A correct knowledge and proper appreciation of the nature of differ ent kinds of food, and an observance of tho simple laws of bygieno and dietetics, will often prevent much physical suffering, in warding off many diseases arising from functional disorder of the digestive organs, which may ultimately lead to permanent organic disease, as well as predispose the system to attacks of disease ar- rising from malarial poison. For the proper understanding of onr subject we will spend a few thoughts upon the chemical qualities of different kinds of food. AU kinds of nutritions food may be divided into two great classos: the nlbuminoids, or JU*h and blood-producing, and hydrocarbons, or heat and fat-producing. In tho former class may be enamerated flesh, blood, bones, curd, gelatine, animal membranes and various cereal grains and vegetable substances; in the latter ■re gam, sugar, starch, oily and fatty matters, and wax. The flesh-producing substances, com posted chiefly of fibrine, albumen and caserne, are called by Liebig componnds of protein, be cause they hold the first rank in affording ma terial for the support of the organic tissues, Animal fibrine is found almost in a state of pa rity in dried muscular fibre, and is converted almost without change into materials for direct transformation into flesh and blood; albumen is fonnd almost pare in tho white of egg; and casein, largely present in milk, in addition to its tissue-making properties, shows the presence of phosphate of lime for the bony tissue of the young and growing animal. It has been maintained that the value of food depends mainly upon the per centage of flesh.produeing elements that it contains. Bat experiments go to prove that an animal confined exclusively upon a diet of white of egg, pare albumen, will not only not thrive, but will perish from inanition. So an exclusive diet of oily and fatty matters, sugar or starch, will be attended with simitar results. The union of these two classos of organic compounds with oartain earthy and mineral substances, as the phosphate of lime, sulphur and iron, form the basis of food that supplies all tho wants of the animal economy. Accoholic stimulants possess no truly tonioor nutritive qualities, for they are incapable of being transformed into the organic tissues, and act directjy.upon the nervous tissue, temporarily increasing nervous energy. Prep arations of iron enter into the composition of the blood, increasing its red oorpusoles, and thereby impart tonicity to tho mascnlar system, and general physical vigor. Tea and coffee are not only pleasant beverages, bnt they have the elements of nutrition in their composition which entitle them to rank among the flesh-prodneing substances. Tho hydro-carbons, gum, sugar, starch and oily and fatty matters, are employed in famishing materials for the elaboration of heat, sustaining the respiration, and when in exoeas, for laying np accumulations of fat. They are more difficult of digestion than the albumin oids or flash-producing substances, and are more slowly converted into the different tissues, In the nso of food its quality must depend upon the age of tho individual and the employ ment in which ho is engaged. A young animal, ia addition to the maintenance of tho ordinary tissues of the body, demands a supply of min eral matter for the development of its bones and teeth. In human foetal life, tho blood of the mother is sometimes so severely drained of its phosphate of limo to supply the wants of her foetus in tho development of its bone as to oauae the rapid and almost entire destruction of her own teeth. The hard laboring man, as well as the student engaged in intense or prolonged mental exercise, requires a supply of strong al buminous food to supply the waste of muscle and brain matter that is rapidly consumed in the pursuit of their respective avocations. Thero is a rapid process of comoustion going on In tho uimal machinery, the result of certain chem ical changes indneed by the action of the ele ments of the blood npon tho matter no longer needed in the system. Exercise greatly increases the process of tho disintegration of the tisanes. The increase m the number of respirations of the individual subjected to hard labor is the source of the sup ply of fuel necessary to bum np fie effete and waste matter. If, therefore, he is not supplied with food that is easily and rapidly digested, and fully freighted with nutritious matter, he rapidly loses flesh and strength. Any excess of nutritive materials that has been properly di gested and assimilated is laid up in the form of fat for future use. In an emergency, this fat is absorbed and supplies the fuel for the evolu tion of animal heat, and for sustaining respira tion fa cases of prolonged starvation or volun tary abstinence from food. As a familiar illus tration of thiR fact, we note the habits of byber- nating animals that lie dormant fn winter. During the antnmnal months they layup a store of fuel in the form of fat, to keep them warm during their long winter’s nap. Nature, to ac commodate tho functional powers of their vital organs to their altered circumstances, almost suspends their operations. The number of res pirations is much diminished, the circulation of the blood is correspondingly slow, and the sup ply of fat is wonderfully economized by the gradual absorption of its globules just in suffi cient quantity to generate the heat necessary to support life. In onr next number wo will notice some of the principles involved in the process of nutri tion. J. p. s. Newton, July 17, 1871. grass, put on exhibition by G. H. Slappy, meas uring 2J feet from the cotton field. The sam ples of cotton from field were good for the year. The patch-work was very credible, and the samples of embroidery were vory good. The samples of cake were as good as could be, and when taken in connection with the aromatic wine, made it multum in parvo. I think you would have enjoyed it had you been here. Your attention is respectfnliy called to th3 report of onr committe on the condition of the crops. A copy of which is hereby at tached for your inspection and disposal. "We are of opinion that a similar committee in each county would be of value to the planting in terest of Georgia, and the South generally, and wonld respectfully ask co-operation in this respect by our sister county societies, for wo think tho object a good one, which is apparent to all. The Association thinks of having a fair of considerable magnitude next October, open to the world. We hope to be joined by Houston. A subscription list will soon be opened for that purpose. Very respectfully, W. H. Reese, Secretary. For tho Telegraph and Messenger.] Report of Committee to (he Macon County Agricultural CInl>. Your Committee appointed for tho purpose of ascertaining as far as practicable, the amount of coin and cotton planted this year as com pared with last year, through this and the con- tinguons portion of Houston county—its pres ent condition and probable result, reports, that so far as their observation extends, a larger amonnt of com has been planted, and though injured by rain and want of proper culture, jet with a few days more of propitious seasons an average crop will bo made. They have estimated the status of the cotton crop as compared with the same period'of last year at 35 por cent, less promising and recog nize these causes as producing such results: 1st. Diminution of acreage, 10 per cent. 2d: By abandonment of commercial manure,’ 10 per cent. 3d. Imperfect stand and improper culture, rains, grass, eta, 1C per cent. The fruiting of the cotton is three weeks later than last year. The crop within the'above de scribed area is for the greater part dwarfish and sickly. It is proper to state that on red lands, which have received proper culture, the plant is vigorous andhealthy, but without the average fruitage. Should the future seasons be propit ious in ovary respect, (a thing hardly probable,) your committee believe three-fourths of a crop might yet be made. Jas. D. Frederick,) M. Hatches, Committee. J.

A., SmOar monthly fair for July was another brilliant success. The number of contributors was not so great, but the articles on exhibition were far superior. Indeed, I must think that there must have been an unusual effort made by our numerous contributors to excel each other, and withont each other’s knowledge. We judge so from the fact that no one conld find out who or what wonld be on exhibition that day. One would ask, what are yon going to exhibit at the fair on Friday ? The reply was, well, I don’t know. What are you going to ex hibit? Well, I have nothing worth exhibiting. And such was the case with all, and I began to think we wonld have a poor affair. I repaired early on Friday morning to the exhibition room, and got it in good order for the reception of ar- tidep, bnt felt, all the while, that the thing would be a failure. Bot before eleven o’clock that delusion was dispelled, for, by that time, there were articles in for exhibition far superior to anything I had ever seen. Think of cucum bers 17jr inches long, weight 41bs 9ozs; Btaiks of com 16 feet 5 inches, with from two to three large ears of corn on each; watermelons of en ormous size ; peaches of fine size and quality, for which this section is proverbial; beets, one- half dozen, weight 331bs; onions, squashes, etc. The varieties of grasses were very good, par ticularly tho old-fashioned and abundant crab All Abont a Sabbath School Celebra tion. Montezuma, Ga., July 19' 1871. Editor» Telegraph and Messenger :—To-day, according to previous appointment, came off the Sabbath-school Celebration of the combined schools of Montezuma and Spalding. Though the morning was somewhat nnpro- pitions, as to the weather, being cloudy, with occasional little showers, there was the largest assemblage from the surrounding country for such an occasion, perhaps, ever witnessed in Montezuma. The crowd was variously estimated at from 500 to 1000 persons. At 10 o'clock the Spalding School was formally received, with the usual salutations, at the depot; when both schools, with hundreds of citizens, were formed in procession by tho marshal of the day, Mr. W. C. Lovejoy, assisted by Messrs. Oliver and Homaday, and marched up to tho church. The superintendents, G. O. Carmichael, of the Mon tezuma school, and Mr. Morgan, of the Spald ing school, announced the following order of exercises: Song by the Montezuma school, and prayer by Chaplain S. H. J. Sistrnnk. Then followed speeches by tho boys, alternating with songs from the different schools. Master ff. McKenzie gave us the opening speech. The boys all spoko well, but litttle Milton Smith, in his clear, distinct enunciation, his emphasis, and graceful gesticulation, gave us a charming specimen of the youthful orator. Another fine speaker was E. Marshall, and another Mas ter EL Wickers. The music was charming. I endorse the critical judgment of a Macon gen tleman, who, with swelling emotion, under the power of tho sonl-inspiring Sabbath-shool songs of the present day, when he said “ is not that the finest mnsic in tfep world?” Mrs. J. R. Holt, a lady of intellect, of fine accomplish ments and an amatenrmnsician, presided over, and conducted the singing for the Montezuma school. Miss Jennie Wilkes, daughter of Pres ident Wilkes, of Spalding Colloge, with a grace ful easo and self-possession, conducted the singing of tho Spalding class. Thero was one speech on tho Bible—its pow er nnd influence on social life, written and de livered by young Mr. John Brown—which I have purposely omitted from the category of “boys’ speeches.” I did it becauso it was a speech of rare merit, and deserves to be spoken of in terms of highest commendation. It was finely conceived, clothed in simple elegance of diotiou, and delivered i° good style. In my humble judgment it was the speech of tho occa sion. I have not tfam nor space to enter into a full and critical analysis, and show the reason and ground of my judgment. Rev. Hsm Felder was by designation and ap pointment the orator of the day. His subject was the “Children of our Country.” In his exordium he showed that he was not ignorant of the arts of the true orator. He humorously alluded to the appellations and pot names given to children by parents, poets and philosophers. They were called “flowers, dew-drops, well- springs of joy in the household, men and wo men in miniature, the hope of the country,” etc. He succeeded most happily in concilia ting and fixing the attention of his large audi tory. He then entered upon the discussion of the snbject. He showed our relation to chil dren and the obligations upon ns to cultivate and devolop them, physically, mentally and re ligiously. They ought to be taught labor; it was a part of educational training, and being primary and conditional, it was a very impor tant part. They ought to be sent to school— pour in the rays of science and learning—flood the mind with the light of intelligence—ex pand, develop to its utmost capacity; and above all train np tho children religiously. Here be alluded to the various instrumentalities and means at our command; and be paid a tribute to the Sabbath-school as a public, heaven-ap pointed instrumentality for the effective reli gious training of all the children. His second general division embraced the relation of the children to the present and future of our coun try, and upon the destiny of the world. Rev. Mr. Felder’s address was an appropriate one. Delivered in a spirit of true manly eloquence, it must make an impression for good, true, permanent good. We had also an address by Mr. J. W. Hanghabook. After the speaking, everybody pleased and delighted with the exercises of the day, repaired to the large grove near the banks of the Flint River and partook of an elegantly prepared din ner by the citizens of Montezuma and Spal ding. Very truly, S. EL J. S. Hox. ART. K.

New Oeleass.—Tho Saratoga gossip of the Commercial Advertiser quotes Mr. Davis, banker of Memphis, as saying: “ Poor New Orleans is losing prestige. Be 4 fore the war she imported directly from Europe. Now she depends upon New York, Memphis, Cincinnati, St. Lonis, Shrieveport, Galveston, Mobile, and the coast towns which used to trade with New Orleans now cut her, and trade with Memphis and New York direct. New Or leans is dying, commercially, every day.” A comiEspoNDENT who has lately been looking into the traces of war in the environs of Paris, says that the miles npon miles of broken and crushed dwellings which meet one’s gaze during a ride through Auteuil or Neuilly, or St. Cloud, oompel the conviction that no one now living will see those places as they were before the siege by the Germans and the siege by the French troops themselves. Bnt perhaps this opinion exaggerates the damage done. The following telegraphic correspondence is a model of brevity and point: “Oil Regions, June 15, 1871.

The practical operation of the Machines can be Been at the PASSENGER SHED ol the Railroad Companies fa MACON; also at the Printing and Publishing House of Messrs J. W. BURKE 4 CO. We call attention to the following extract from a letter from J. W. Burke, Esq.: Macon, Ga., March 23,1871. “We have had one of tlie U. S. Gaslight Comp* ny’s Machines, fa operation since the 10th of No vember, 1870, and it is perfectly satisfactory to ns fa ito general working and cheapness. We paid the Macon Gaslight Company for four months of last year and the year previous—viz: November, De cember, January and February—*399.56. In using this Machine our gas for the four corresponding months cost ua Sill—thus saving us fa that time $285.56. The light ia quite as good as that of the City Gas Company, and has tho advantage of being entirely under our control to use as we please. During the severe weather in December it burned without intermission, not being at all affected by the freeze. We see no trouble fa the Machine or the light, and ch-erfully recommend it.” [Signed] J.
