Biuocshess ani> Indigestion.—Tbeeo two com
plaints are more genoral at this season of the year
than at almost any other. Thqy aro closely akin;
for biliousness always involves an impaired diges
tion, and indigestion is necoesarily an accompani
ment of a disordered or torpid liver. Happy the
man or woman who can boast of a stomach that
has never felt the horrors of RJ-spepsia, and to
whom that groat secretive agent, tho liver, has
never given pain or trouble. Not one in a thousand
can lay claim to entire immunity from irregularity
in these organs. How, then, shall they be regu
lated? Not by powerful catharthics, alternated
with ordinary stimulants, but by a medicinal invig-
orant, like Hostotter's Stomach Bitters, which com
bine, in due proportion, tho tonic and the alterative
principle. Whorever there is a church, a school-
bonse, and a genoral store, this famous medicino
n»y bo procured. No village merchant duds it
prudent to be without it, for it is inquired for evory
day by every class. Tho workingman buys it bo-
■ cause it increases his capacity for toil, and is fol
lowed by no roaction. Tho effect of tho salubri
ous roots, herbs, etc., of which it is composed, dif
fused through bis system by tho pure stimulant
which forms the basis of tho Bitters, is most health
ful and invigorating. Tho scholar, tho merchant,
and, in fact, all men whose minds or bodies, or
both, are in constant exercise, will derive benefit
from its use. To persons of sedontary habits it
supplies, in some measure, that activity in the cir
culation which to obtained by physical exertion, and
to the beet known remedy for constipation.
Ask for Hostetler’s Stomach Bitters, and do not
beooaxod into purchasing any of tho imitations
and frauds sometimos offered in its stead.
CHOLERA.
HOW TO CURS IT.
At the commencement of the diarrhea, which al
ways precedes an attack of the^cholera, take a
tcwpoonful of
THE PAIN KILLER
In sugar and water, (hot if convenient,) and then
bathe freely the stomach and bowels with the Pain
Killer dear. Should the diarrheo or cramps con
tinue, repeat the dose every ten or fifteen minutes
until tho patient is relieved. In extreme cases,
two or more toaspoonfuls may bo given at a dose.
The Pain Killer, as an internal remedy, bas no
equal. In cases of cholera, summer complaints,
dyspepsia, dysentery, asthma, it cures in one night
by taking it internallv, and bathing with it freely.
Its action is like magic, when externally applied to
old sores, burns, scalds, and sprains. For sick
headache aud toothace, don’t fail to try it In
abort, it is a Pain Kilt.eiu
Directions Accompany each bottle.
The Pain Killer is Bold by all dealers in medi
cines.
Prico 25 cents, 50 cents and 'll per bottle.

Rain.—Wo have had two or three light show
ers of rain in tho city Bince onr last, bnt all of

We challenge the world to produce a cooking
stove for wood equal to the Cotton Plant stove
in the following points: For economy in fuel;
for durability; for capacity in baking, boiling,
and broiling; for simplicity in management;
for cleanliness in cooking; for great power
heat in baking and boiling, with a very small
consumption of fuel.
Please examine and test this stove, and you
will find it all we represent it to be. For sale

ages to please and delight woman. She has
been placed on the seal of power, receiving the
homage of admiring subjects, all the gems of

gaze, and yet there is a longing look, somethin
not satisfied. This want, so long neglected by
man, has been supplied, and we see woman’s
true delight. It is that “ Choice Hazob ” flour,
sold by Small & Gamble. From it she delights
to make those nice light rolls, and thereby de
light her husband. Messrs. Small & Gamble

Synopsis of Wcntlicr Statement.
War Dep’t, Office Chief Signal Officer,!
WaaMngton, D. C., August 7, 7:30 P. it. j
The barometer has fallen slightly since Sun
day afternoon at the Rocky mountain stations,
and very considerably from OMo to Kansas
and northwards. The pressure has increased
rapidly from New Jersey to Alabama, where it
is now falling, bnt highest pressure still remains
on South Atlantic coast. Southeasterly winds are
now reported from Chesapeake Bay to Massa
chusetts, but southern winds prevail very gen
erally in Southern and Gulf States. Partially
cloudy and clear weather has prevailed from
Pennsylvania to Maine and west to Lake Michi
gan ; bnt cloudy and threatening weather has
increased from Tennessee northeasterly into
Ohio, and rain is reported from the Gulf coast.
Probabilities: The barometer will probably
fall very generally east of tbe Mississippi. The
lowest pressure remains north and west of Illi
nois. The conditions will remain favorable for
local storms from Missouri to Lake Superior
and east of Louisiana. Threatening weather
will probably very generally prevail during the
night from Tennessee and North Carolina to
Lake Ontario, and cloudy weather, with a few

A City Residence and also a Suburban Res
idence for Sale.
T BE City Residence is new and corners Oak and
New streets; contains four rooms, hall and ve
randah. Well shaded. In an excellent neighbor
hood. No better water in tho city, and convenient
to church. Sufficiently near the business portion
of the city for a business man, and yet far enough
removed to avoid the disadvantages attending a
residence too near. 'Time giveD on part of the pur
chase money on both places. The other residence
beyond Tattnall Square and on the Columbus road,
contains five rooms, ball, verandah, basement and
all out-buildings. Water good. Grounds covered
with shade, both natural and artificial. On the
place is a great quantity and variety of fruit, inclu
ding a vinoyard. This property is admirably adap
ted for a boarding house for the Mercer students,
and the grounds offer superior advantages for gar
den purposes. It is a delightful home, and can
never depreciate in value. Also, I will sell several
choice building lots adjoining same. If not sold, I
will offer for rent, ending October. 1872.

THE WIN SHIP COTTON GIN.
Ahead of All Competition.
WARDEDTWO FIRST PREMIUMS AT STATE
FAIRS IN 1870.
A T a test of nine of tbe leading Gins of this
country, exhibited at the Cotton States Me
chanics’ and Agricultural Fair Association, held in
Augusta, in 1870, the trial resulted as follows:
Founds
cotton. Time.
Winn’s Gin................45 saws. 135 13:30 m
Carver Gin 50 saws. 150
Pratt Gin .45 sawa. 135
Massey’s Griswold Gin....45 eaws. 135
Nisbett & Goodrich Gin. ..45 Bawg. 135
Morris Gin.. 50 saws. 150
Gullett’s Bteel Brush Gin..60 saws. 180
The Wlnahip Gin, - 50 saws. 150
Hall’s Gin and Feeder 50 sawa. 160
The Gina were all run by a steam engine, and at
high speed. The Committee on Machinery had the
cotton weighed up for each Gin according to size,
all out of the 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,under the personal super
vision of Mr. JOHN WISSHIP, a first-class ma
chinist of more than twenty years’ practical experi
ence—giving his exclusive attcuticn to the manu
facture and improvement of Cotton Gins. Those
wanting Gins ran find them with numbers of testi
monials as to fast work—picking seeds clean, and
leaving lint in good condition, making it sample
well. 40, 45, 50 and 60 saws kept constantly in
stock. Price, $4 per saw.

MAGIC DOOR SHOW CASES!
T HE doors have a brass Bpiral spring extending from binge to hinge, giving an ornamental appe&raneo
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 opened or shut instantly by most any part of
the hands or arms, and remain so perfectly without catch, bolt or appendage of any land. Is not affected
by warping or shrinking, and is warranted to be exactly what has long been wanted for a show case door.
