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. augS-ood&wlm Or. NUSSBAUM REMOVES NO. 34 SECOND STREET. STORE FORMERLY OCCUPIED —BY THE— SOUTHERN EXPRESS COMPANY. augS 3t CITY AFFAIRS. TUESDAY MORNING.

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 local storms, will probably extend over New England on Tuesday afternoon.

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. jnlOTtf A. W.

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.
