A Pkmlous Skasok.—Glorious and delightful aa
the summer weather is, its tropical heat is a severe
trial to the vital powers. Even the strongest aro
sometimes prostrated by its effects. The common
phrase applied to this condition of the body is
“general debility.” Now, general debility arises
from, and includes a variety of ailments. The
liveris more orl6ss affected, the bowels are either
conetipsted or too much relaxed, the atomach but
half performs the work of digestion, the sppetite is
poor, and the spirits depressed. This is what is
called goneral debility. It is a general disarrange
ment of all the physical functions, and requires as
a remedy a medicine that will regulate them ail.
Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is specially adapted to
this purpose. Its general operation is not confined
to a single organ. If the liver is affected, it re
stores its tone. If the atomach is torpid, it regen
erates it. If the nerves are tremulous and weak,
it braces and reinforces them. H the mind, which
ever sympathizes with the body, is gloomy and de
spondent, it relieves the difficulty, and soon brings
the whole mechanism of the body into harmony
with the laws of health.
There is no civilized nation in the Western hem
isphere in which the utility of Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters, as a tonic, corrective, and anti-bilious med-
cine, is not known and appreciated. Throughout
the tropics it is considered, both by the people and
the profession, the standard specific. While it is a
medicine for all seasons and all climates, is is es
pecially suited to the complaints generated by the
weather, being the purest and best vegetable stim
ulant in tbo world.
Beware of tbo Bitters made of add and danger
ous materials, which unscrupulous parties are en
deavoring to foist upon the people. Their name is
legion, and the public has no guarantee that they
are not poisonous. Adhere to the tried remedy,
Hostetter’s Bitters, sold only in glass, and never in
kegs or barrels.

CONSUMPTION.
Its Cure and Its Preventive.
By J. H. SOHENOK, M. D.
M ANY a human being bis passed away, for whose
death there was no other reason than the neglect
of known and indisputably proven means of cure.

end availed themselves of his wonderfnl efficacious
medicine*, they would cot have fallen. Dr. Schenck
hu in his own ease proved that wherever sufficient
Vitalii, remains, that vitality, by his medicines and
hit direction! for their uso, is quickened into health-
In this statement thoro is nothing presumptuous.
To the faith of the invalid is made no representation
thetie not a thousand times substantiated by living
aadviiibla works. The theory of the cure by Dr.
Schenck’s medicines is as simple as it is unfailing.
Its philosophy requires no argument. It is self-
aiserinf, self convincing. .
Theheawood Tonic and Mandrake Pillsare the first
two weiponi with which the citadel of tho malady is
smiled. Two-thirds of tho cases of consumption
originate in dyspepsia and a functionally disordered
liver. With this condition tho brcnchialtube* ■•sym

The work of enre is now beginning. The vitiated

of onr worthy townsman, E. P. Bowdre, Esq.
died at his residence in Grifiin on Sunday lost,
and the remains were brought to this city and
interred yesterday afternoon, with Masonic hon

at 4 o’clock, and was largely attended. •

scoundrel who shot two women of bia own color
near this city some two months ago, was ar
rested yesterday, and lodged in jaiL Ho bad
returned to the scene of bis dastardly act, think
ing, perhaps, it had been forgotten, and was
caught.
Wt.t. In.—The roof of Grier £ Masterson’s
blacksmith shop, on Third street, fell in last
night, about 9 o’clock, with a tremendous crash.
The wall next to the alley, on the south side,
gave way, and the roof fell in, leaving the two
ends and one side wall standing, bnt in danger
of falling at any moment. It wonld be pru
dent not to venture too near them to-day.
At a called meeting of “Young America Fire
Company, No. 3,” held last night, a resolution
was unanimously adopted, that as the Company
was formed for the purpose of suppressing fires
and not for shirking jury duty, it is their inten
tion to continue in the discharge of that duty,
regardless of Supreme Court decisions or legis
lative exemption. There’s a noble, gallant and
manly spirit for you!
Mator’s Coubt.—Among several other offend
ers of a vile nature before this Court yesterday,
was a woman who had subdued the instinots of
a mother to such lowness, as to induce her to
trust to the keeping of a brutal wretch, a pretty
little daughter, which, according to the testi
mony, was subject to the harshest and most
cruel treatment from the negro woman having
it in charge. The Mayor oould not adjudicate
upon the case, bnt it is one which we hope the
Ordinary will investigate.
Bead street and his Humbug Repobteb.—
We see they are handling Mr. Bradstreet and
his humbug report of the commercial standing
of men in business pretty roughly oat in St.
Louis. It is brought out in evidence that a
gold-headed canfe and other things of similar
valuation secured men of worthless commercial
character position among the four A’s of that
book, and that others who refused to be black'
mailed were pnt down as unworthy of credit.
We thought that was about the way that thing
worked, and are glad it is being exposed.
It is impossible for Bradstreet or any other
man to do justice to the merchants of the
United States in the manner proposed. Men
are rich to-day, poor to-morrow, and the
reverse, and his report ought therefore to be
revised and reissued about every two hours and
a half, and then he wouldn’t get it down right

Ohubch Music.—With a single exception the
quality of the church music in Macon is not
what it should be, considering the wealth, pop
ulation and intelligence of the place. We may
say, however, that the fault ianot so much with
the gentler sex as with the young men. It is
remarkable bow few young men seem disposed
to cultivate vocal music, even to the extent of
qualifying themselves for social enjoyment, and
to nnite in the most inspiring and delightful
part of public worship. The consequences of this
neglect on their part are manifest every Sun
day, in onr churches, in very ill-balanced, time
less and discordant chorals, which further the
ends neither of pleasure nor devotion. If onr
religions churches and societies wonld agree to
it, an experienced vocal toacher might be em
ployed here during the fall and winter who
wonld not only instruct young ladies and gen
tlemen in the science cf music and the art of
Binging well and tastefully, but, while doing it,
open new opportunities for social enjoyment
among the young people of the city.
Fibemen as Jcbobs.—With no view of taking
either side of the question now agitating the
minds of many members of our fire department,
but merely to give them a few facts in regard
to the jury service that will probably be required
of them, under Judge Lochrane’s decision, we
will state that the jury list of Bibb connty, in
cluding the number lately added by the addition
of the fire department to the jury list is abont
1,300 whites and 48 colored. The number of
jnrors drawn each semi-annual Bession of the
Superior Court are, grand jurors 23 and tales
30, making 59 at each semi-annual session, and
amounting to 118 jnrors each year. Allowing a
liberal estimate that an equal number are ex
cused from sickness of themselves or their
families, and excused for other reasons by the
court, and those summoned to try special cases
as tales jurors, we have 236 citizens summoned
each year npon the jury, 118 of whom serve,
All other jury duties of other courts amount
to very little, as it is probable that both the city
and District Courts will be abolished by the
next Legislature, bnt even if they are continued
in existence, they will not call fox 100 jurors,
all ineladed, daring the entire year. We see,
therefore, that if the courts do their duty, and
the citizens upon the jury list serve all the
jury duty that is required of them, by a proper
ratio a citizen will not be called on to serve
npon a jury to exeonte the laws of his country
more than once in four years.

Personal.—The little crimson pink of the
Savannah News, J. O. Harris, was a guest of
the Brown House on Sunday last, and we didn’t
know it until'Iate in the afternoon, and nntil af
ter he had taken his seat on the evening train
for Atlanta. We should not have known it even
then, if the little zed headed “knsB” had not
sent ns his card and “love,” when in the aot of
leaving, and while we were standing in the of-
fioe of the Brown House. We hurried over to
the depot to get a glimpse of him, and see what
sort of a man it was who makes such a thunder
ing racket in the News. He was pointed ont to
ns by a friend, and we never experienced snch
an overthrow of expectation in all our days, as
when onr eyes first fell npon him ; for we had
painted hiin with the pencil of imagery as a
huge, rawboned, redheaded “ronser,” into whose
presence one might venture only when in his
milder mood. But we were most egregiously
sold. There he sat in tho car, a tiny little fel
low, scarcely tall enough when seated, to peep
out of the window, looking like the—
Little Jack Horner,
That sat in the corner.
EatiDg his Brown House pie.
In that first glance at him, all the fierceness
of onr nature was subdued, and it was by great
exertion only, that we conld resist the inclination
to run into the car and, waiving the formalities
of an introduction, snatch him np and kiss him.
and dandle him awhile on onr paternal knee.
But there is abont it, Finky; if you ever pass
through Macon again, as you did on Sunday
last, without calling on ns, we'll spank you like
putting ont fire. Now mind that!
The Legislature of Iowa has taken measures
to preserve, or rather to restore, the forests
which have been and still are recklessly destroy
ed. The law releases from taxation on $100
valuation every acre of forest for ten years, and
for each acre of frnit trees planted $50 valua
tion for five years is exempted, and the same for
shade trees and hedges along the highways.
There are now maple jforests in several oonnties,
from which sugar is made, where fifteen years
since there was nothing but wild prairie grass
and hazel shrubs.

DAY DISPATCHES.
New York, July 24.—The following is a copy
of a letter brought to Admiral Rogers by a
party of Coreans shortly after the arrival of the
expedition in their waters, and before the first
conflict occurred:
“In the year 18G9, a man of yournatioD,
whose name was Zebiger, came hero and com
municated, and then went away. Why cannot
you do the same? In I8G5, a people, named
French, came here, and we refer yon to them
as to what happened. This people has lived
4,000 years in the enjoyment of its own civili
zation, and we want no other. We tronble no
other nation,—why do you trouble us T Our
country is in the extreme East, and yours in
the extreme West. For what purpose do yon
come so many thousand miles across the sea?
Is it to inquire about the ship destroyed—Gen.
Sherman? Her men committed piracy and
murders, and were punished with death. Do
yon want onr land ? That cannot be. Do you
want intercourse with us? That cannot be,
either.”
As the party bringing this letter had no cre
dentials or authority to treat, neither Minister
Low nor Admiral Rogers paid any attention to
the communication.
Washington, July 24.—Rev. Dr. Jacobs, for
forty years professor of Pennsylvania College,
is dead.
New York, July 24.—The messenger of a
national bank was knocked down at the corner
of Broadway and Warren streets, and robbed of
$30,000.
Paris, July 24.—The'courls martial for the
trial of the Communists at Versailles has been
adjourned. Bonvalet is among the successful
candidates in the election on Sunday. Heavy
payments towards the second half million of
indemnity have been effected. It i3 reported
that Favre persists in bis resignation, because
the petition of the Bishops urging the govern
ment to support the temporal power of the
Pope has been refused to the ministry of foreign
affairs.
The municipal elections resulted in the choice
of six conservative and forty-nine moderate Re
publicans. Prince Napoleon, who was at Havre,
has been ordored to leave France. The Bona-
part journal, Avenir, liberal, has been seized.
London, July 24.—The ship Sidney has been
wrecked—crew and passengers were saved. The
meeting at the Hyde Park yesterday, was a fail
ure. A heavy rain prevailed during the day,
and prevented any considerable crowd from as
sembling. Prinoe Frederick William, of Prus
sia, has arrived at Osborne House. Tho Em
peror and Empress of Brazil, have gone to
Birmingham.
Madrid, July 24.—The new ministerial com
bination under Serrano has failed. It is said
Serrano refuses to undertake the formation of
another cabinet.
Havana, July 24.—Rafael Qnesada, with two
hundred men, landed near Guatanamo with
eighteen mules and some rifles. The mules
were eaten and the rifles were distributed
among the Insurgants. A fight with the party
resulted in a Spanish viotory. The loss of the
Spaniards was 10 killed and 12 wounded. The
Insurgents had 23 killed. Advices from Insur
gent sources claim a Cuban suocess. Forty-
five Spaniards were killed and 750 captured,
and the Patriots control the department of
Guatanamo. It is apprehended that the sailing
of Quesada’s expedition will oreate a complica
tion between Spain and Venezuela.
NIGHT DISPATCHES.
Washington,' July 24.—J. H. Christy, of
Athens, Ga., was examined to-day by tho Ku-
klux Committee. He testified in substance,
that he knew of no Ku-klux organization in
his district, or any part of the State. In an
swer to the inquiry, as to what facilities he had
of knowing anything abont it, he stated that he
bad been twice elected to Congress from that
district, and usually attended the conrts of the
Western Circuit, as well aa a portion of those
of the Northern Circuit; and, in response to
the interrogatory, he stated that he was person
ally acquainted with the people generally. No
more crime was committed than before the war
in liia section of the State. He admitted that
there had been some violations of law by dis
guised parties, for the purpose of punishing per
sons for living together in adultery and fornica
tion, theft, etc., and stated that it was tho gen
eral opinion in the community that the people
took the law into their own hands, because
so many criminals bad been pardoned.
Another circumstance which give rise to the
many exaggerations in referenoe to the so-called
Ku-klux, was the fact that mischievious young
men, for purpose of amusement, sometimes
wrapped themselves in sheets to scare the super
stitions negroes, some of whom affected to be-
lievo they were ghosts of deceased Confederate
soldiers. These negroes had disguised them
selves and whipped a white man in Clarke coun-
ty, and there had been bnt little said: about it.
Another party of disguised negroes bad at
tempted to murder a white man in Hancock,
and been convicted and sentenced, bnt subse
quently pardoned by the Governor. The wit
ness expressed the opinion that Alf. Richardson
had not been attacked on political grounds, and
that no negroes had been intimidated from vo
ting the Republican ticket, bnt some had prob
ably been prevented by threats from voting the
Democratic ticket The whole tenor of this
testimony was to the effect that he believed
there was no regular organization in Georgia
for the purpose of violating the laws. The ex
amination was long and tedious, but the above
are the leading facts elicited.
The employees of the Alabama and Chatta
nooga road liaving seized the road between
York Station Jand Meridian, Miss., the mai’s
go via Montgomery, Mobile and New Orleans,
to Jackson, Miss. The section is in the bands
of the rioters-for 25 miles. There is no delay
of mails through Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas,
and Alabama, temporary contracts having been
made for the service until Januarylfirst. Mean
while, new proposals will bo invited for these
States, defeated by straw bids on some im
portant river and stage lines.
The President has pardoned Reddin £ Brown,
of Tennessee, convicted of illicit distilling.
Charles S. English is appointed Collector of
the port of Georgetown; J. F. Starkweather is
appointed Collector of Customs.
St. Marks, Fla., July 24.—The naval Pay
master, Richard Washington, has been restored
to duty.
Philadelphia, July 24.—Wm. 0. Stone, a re

MAGIC DOOR SHOW CASES!
T HE doors have a brass spiral spring extending from hinge to binge, giving an ornamental appearance
to the projecting part of the hinges.
The advantages of this door are: It will shut or open as by magic, without tho slightest noise, jar or
breaking of glass, even by the roughest of use. Can be opeuod or abut instantly by most any part of
the hands or arms, and remain so perfectly without catch, holt or appendage of any kind. Is not affected
by warping or shrinking, and is warranted to bo exactly what has long been wanted for a show case door.
