They aro closely akin; far kilionancae always involves an impaired diges tion, and indigestion is necessarily an accompani mint of a disordered or torpid liver. Happy the man or woman who can boost of a stomach that liu never felt the horrors of dyspepsia, and to nliom that great secretive agent, tbo liver, has never given pain or trouble. Not one in a thousand an lay claim to entire immunity from irregularity in lime organ*. How, then, shall they be regu lated ?• Not by poworfnl cat hart hies, alternated vith ordinary stimulants, bat by a medicinal invig- orint, like Hoetettor's Stomach Bitters, which com tine, is due proportion, tho tonic and tho alterative principle. Wherever there is a church, a school bonae, and a general store, this famous medicine may be procured. No villago merchant finds it prudent to be without it, for it is inquired for every day by every class. Ths workingman buys it be rates it increases his capacity for toil, and is fob lowed by no reaction. Tho effect of tho solnbri- on* mots, herbs, etc., of which it is composed, dif- fnaed through bis system by tbo pnro stimulant which forms the basis of tbo Bitters, is most health' fnl and invigorating. Tbo scholar, tho merchant, and, in fact, all men whoso minds or bodies, or loth, are in constant exercise, will derive benefit from it* two. To persons of sedentary habits it •applies, in tome measure, that activity in the cir- ralstian which is obtained by physical exertion, and i< ths beet known remedy for constipation. Ask for Hostetler's Stomach Bitters, and do not be coaxed into purchasing any of tbo imitations •od frauds sometimes offered in its stead. CHOLERA. now TO CURB IT.

The street cleaners went over Second street yesterday, with their shovels and carts, and made the hearts of the denizens of that fash ionable thoroughfare exceedingly glad, by re moving all the litter before their doors. We beard a good many people say yesterday was the hottest day they had felt this year. - It was certainly a scorcher. la addition to tho beat the atmophere floated all the dost it conld carry—making the situation, all in all, well nigh intolerable. Omitted.—In the list of delegates to the ap proaching Agricultural Convention at Rome, as published last week, tho names of Dr. Leo Holt, A. M. Lockett and W. B. Lundy, repre sentatives of the Ocmnlgeo Farmers’ Club, of Bibb county, were inadvertently omitted. Fast.—On Saturday, tho 12th of August, the steamship Manhattan—Woodhull,commander— will leave Charleston for New York. This ship is the “Dexter” of the Atlantic coast. Parlies anticipating a visit to New York can avail themselves of passage by this ship, which for speed has yet to find her equal. We are glad to learn that Miss Anna L. Buck- ley, who was seriously injured by being thrown from a horso near Sparta on Sunday lost, is fast convalescing under tho treatment of that emi nent andskillfnl surgeon and physician, Dr. A. Durham, of Sparta, and the unremitting oaro and attention of kind friends. Personal.—We met upon the street yester day, Mr. J. C. Boyd, the popular representa tive of the firm of Williams, Langston & Grane> Atlanta. Mr. Boyd’s reputation as the prince of good fellows is not bounded by State lines, and the character of his honse for re liability and promptness renders praiso at our bands snpeifluons. The Aiicade.—Mr. Newt. Seymour has asso ciated with himself in the business of this es tablishment, his brother George, of Fourth street fame, and the new firm will henceforth be known as the Seymour Brothers. They are both mighty nice “boys,” and will be glad to have their friends call at the Arcade and see them at any and all times. A Notable Decision. — Attorney-General Akerman has rendered a foolish and ridiculous decision in regard to postotfioo envelopes. It is that the three little black lines usually printed under the paper and which nobody ever sees, oxcept by reversion or with a powerful magni fying glass, aro illegal. Wo suppose postmas ters will have to heroafter throw them out, and our citizens who havo bought of them had bet ter shofile off as quickly as possible.

All of the well to-do can’t- get-aways havo a board and men convenient, with which to while away the J #8 dnli hours, when a visitor drops in. Macon sports several veiy good players; bnt wo do not know that there is a first clas3 player in the State. Tho brag player here is a Third Street grocer and provision dealer. He took a tilt at ns yesterday, bnt wo soon ascertained tho fact that he knew more about selling floor, bacon, oto., than tho science of tho game. Central Kailboad and Macon and Bbdxb- wick Bills.—Onr jocose statement yesterday about Judge Bullard’s .“freighta”—tho Central Railroad and the Macon and Brunt-wick bills— misinterpreted, and we desire to say seriously that we neither have nor had any idea that the Central Railroad has made any effort to dis credit these bills. They are only in the same category of other parties who refuse to receive them—willing to take them so long as redeema ble in bankable currency, and unable to take them any longer. A New Way to Pcbiey Well Watee.—We heard yesterday a now plan to purify the water in wells. A citizen who recently pnrebased a city residence found the water of that whitish, chalky color so often found in many of our wells. In order to remedy the evil he put a quantity of pebbles on the'bottom, which acted as a strainer in forcing the water to percolate through it. The result was highly satisfactory the water now being as pure and dear as a perfectly blown plate of glass. In making experiments of this kind care should be taken not to reduce the amount of water so that the bucket will not sink. The depth shonld be first ascertained, and the rock so placed as to form a uniform bed all over every inch of the bottom. It would be better to send a man down to do the work correctly. The pebbles onght not to be smaller than the seed of the plum nor larger that that of the peach, and to bo washed perfectly clean before used. Macon, Ga., August 4, 1871. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of Macon : At a meeting of this Company held on Tues day, tho 1st of August, 1871, the following res olution was unanimously passed; That we, the officers and members of Defi ance No. 5, Fire Engine Company, do hereby tender oar thanks to the Mayor and City Coun cil of Macon for the handsome manner in which they have quartered our engine and apparatus, and also for allowing ns the privilege of holding our meetings in the Council Chamber. J. H. Envtbight, Secretary. The best stoneware fruit and preserve jar in the market, self sealing, at greatly reduced Pbemicsis fob the State Faib.—A paragraph appeared a few days ago in the Atlanta Sun and it was copied in this paper, announcing that Messrs. Sharp & Floyd, jewelers, of Atlan ta, had been awarded the contract by the Geor gia State Agricultural Society for manufactur ing the silver plate and preminms to be awarded at the State Fair. We are authorized to state, by Major W. A. Huff, that tho premiums to be awarded at the State Fur, in this city next Oc tober, will be paid in greenbacks and gold coin, at the time they are awarded by the judges, and on the Fair Grounds. There will be no delay in the matter, nor will there be offered to any ex hibitor, as a premium, any galvanized tin plate or silverware. The cash will be planked down on the spot. The Society may have engaged Sharp A Floyd to make a few medals specified in the premium list, bnt certainly not any silver plate or ware, for nothing of the sort will be of fered. Exhibitors will therefore bear in mind that they will receive money as premiums, and that they will get it immediately after it is awarded. Got Oct op It.—A man who had been ar rested for drunkenness and disorderly conduct, on Thursday night last, was assigned comfort able quarters over night, in one of the cells at the City Hall, the arresting officer expecting to introduce his victim to the Mayor yesterday morning. So soon as the prisoner sobered off a jittle, he formed a dislike for his apartments, and the idea of appearing before the Mayor, to be fleeced of thelittle change in his pocket, and subjected to the rude stare of the rabble dis gusted him, and visions of breathing again the pure air of liberty and heaven “danoed o’er his mind.” On awaking, his first thought was to realize the sweets of his dream, and he pro ceeded to operate upon the delicate net work of wrought iron which ornamented iris cell window. Soon one of the bars yielded to his Herculien muscles and it was removed, and then another and another, until an opening was famished sufficiently large to pass him through, and ont ho poppod like a little Fnnch under the vigor ous broomstick strokes of his Jndy. Having bnsiness to detain him at the barracks, he went strolling ad libitum, and has not yet returned, nor is he confidently expected. A Fibst-Class Nuisance.—Citizens living BY TELEGRAPH. along tho line of the railroads in the corporate limits have complained time without number of the harsh, long continued and unearthly whistles of the locomotives passing their houses at all hours of the day and night. That it is a nuisance of which they not only have a just right to com plain, bnt to appeal to law for protection against, is no question. And whilst it is a great annoyanoe to every one, it is cruelty to the sick. The engineers seem to take a special de light, or rather spite, in sonnding their whistles longer and louder in tho corporation limits than anywhere else. And what is tho nso of it ? Who aro they blowing for ? What aro they blowing at, or np, or down, or across, or ont of, or in the way? The only answer wo ever heard to these ques tions was, to let tho switch tender and depot agent know we are coming. Well, if these offi cers can read we would suggest they be furnish ed with a schedule of the road and instructed to look for the coming of the trains according to tho figures, and to have everything in order accordingly, whether tho train gets there on time or not. We rather snspect there is a vein of ili-hnmor about this business, and as the City Council have the clear and nndonbled right to suppress a nuisance, we hope it will be done here as in every other city of note in the United State. These railroads havo no more right to disturb families in their peaceful slumbers than has a disorganized mob to go through the streets and do the same thing, by hooting and yelling ; or, if onr excellent rail road Presidents would stop the matter they wonld receive the thanks of thousands of pa trons and friends of their lines. In the name of the complainants wo respectfully ask them to do so. MimsTis, Small <t Gamble have just received, from tho lowest Western markets, 1,000 sacks of flour, all grades, the choice “Hazor” incln. ded; 500 sacks of braD, and 300 (jacks of oats, which they offer to the trado and consumers at prices to suit tho times.

The whole radical party, induding.every office-holders of the Federal, State and city government, is absorbed in this combat. Pnblio business and interests are utterly ignored, and the pnblio money ruthless ly squandered to promote the fortunes of the one or the other faetion.

O., August 4, 7:40 p. m. ) The barometer has fallen on the Pacific coast since Thursday. The low barometer which then extended from Lake Ontario to Lake Su perior has moved southeast, and the pressure has diminished decidedly on the South Atlantic and in tho Gulf States. Tho winds have re mained southwest on the Atlantic coast, and thence east to Lake Erie and Missouri. North westerly winds havo prevailed to-day north and west of Illinois. The temperature has increased somewhat in the Eastern States, and has re mained quite warm in the Ohio Valley and southward, bnt has fallen in the north west. Cloudiness has increased in the South ern and Gulf States, although light rain has been reported from bnt one station. Local rains and threatening weather are now very generally reported from Illinois eastward to West Va., and thence to New England and the lower Lakes. Probabilities: The area of threatening weather with local rains will probably extend southeast and prevail on Saturday from Pennsylvania to Florida. The area of lowest barometer will probably pass over Pennsylvania and Massa chusetts, with heavy rains. The severest local storms are probable for Virginia and Maryland.
