Outbuebt, August 14, 1871. Let ns Uke up again the thread of events so rudely severed in our last, by the arrival on the scene at Fort Valley, of the shrieking locomo tive, which, like “time and tides wait for no man." In the afternoon the laughable mule race, like the “tub" contest of aquatic sportsmen, came off, affording much amusement to the crowd. Then followed the eagerly looked for exhibition of lilliputian livo stock, yclept the ••baby show." About a dozen magnificent upoo- jmena of mamma’s prodigies, fortified Tiftainst colic we suppose, by tbo magic of Mrs. .Winslow, their patron saint, and looking all innocence sod dimples, sweetness and smiles, were pre sented for tho prizes. We searched closely for the wings of this chernbio band, thinking they bad escaped from their elfin abode beyond the ken of mortals. Brat no ; their pouting lips and gleesome prattle, plainly evinced that thoy were emanations of their glorious Hoavenly Father, and as yet untouched and uncontam- inatod by the stain of sin. Tho judges had a difficult task to poifdrm, and in thoir award of prizes to two of tho beauteous jnnoconts, of course mortally offended the mothers of the remaining ten. One of their numbor, a petit and lovely lady, conld not exaetly contain her indignation. A few words escaped from her lips, which caused ns devoutly to bless our stars that tee had not pronounoed against her peerless babe. Look out for the Eu-klnz again in old Houston. - THE SUPPER. After night-fall, in the spaoiona apartment above the exhibition room, two long tables were spread, and literally crowded with tempting viands and every conceivable delicacy—many of tho cakes wero splendidly decorated, and the entertainment was most tastefully arranged. In the large ball below, were assembled a brilliant array of the beauty and fashion of this refined portion of the State. Elegant toilets, flashing eyes, flowing tresses, and .animated conversa tion lit up the aoehe, and formed a tout ensem ble, rarely surpassed in our most fashionable cities. Certainly the/air of Fort Valley Fair, at least, will challenge oompariBion with the proudest boaulios of this or any other dime. Thus ended this industrial exhibition which was a perfect success, and will prove the fore runner to many others in tho interior. No surer or more rapid steps can be taken to dig nify labor, and elevate the standard of agricul ture in Georgia. chops. The rains have been copious and general throughout the country, but tho cotton promise in the judgment of the writer, is worse than it has been st any previous stage of the season. On the red lands, the forms and yonng fruit bnd nearly all fallen off boforo tho rains, and the plant had blossomed np to tho top. A new growth of weed will now set in causing the bolls already on the stalk to dwindle or stop growing, while it is too late to mature another crop. The cotton on gray and sandy soils looks better, but has also lost much of its fruit, and is exceedingly fnisll and irregular. Planters are greatly dis heartened with the prospect EDUCATIONAL. tin Saturday last tho tax-psyers of this place, by a vote of eighty to three, decided in favor of imposing a corporation tax of $.">000 to so- enre, if possible, tho location here of tho male district school, about to be established by the Methodist denomination. Two freo schools also were opened to-day (for whites) under the late law, presided over by Prof. MoNulty and Mr. Murray, both gentlemen of experionoe and the highest attainments. Cuthbert is improving rapidly,and tho streets are generally thronged with railroad officials and employes. Soon the work of locating and constructing the Bainbridge, Cuthbert and Columbus Bail- road will begin, and progress like magic in the bands of the cnergetio contractors, Messrs, Atkins, Tomlin and others. Any amount of laborers stand ready to pitch in. J. Letter from Indian Spring. Indian Spjunos, August 13,1871. Etlitcrs Telegraph and Ketsenger: If a suc cessful attempt were made at describing tho spot where the most superior water this side of Saratoga is to be found, it would be an old sto ry thrice told. Indian Spring and her healing waters are as familiar to your readers ns scenes in the history of Georgia which havo mado this place memorable. While many are seeking health and pleasure in places remote from our glorious Empire Stnte, bonefitting those who “would it they oould” guide and hurl the thun derbolt* of heaven against her corner stoce that she might only be remembered as once' the home of nature's truest type of American chiv alry, there have been almost a faithful three hundred mindful of Georgia’s interest, who, knowing the requisites so essential to snmmer happiness, wero dispensed through the rock, which the greatest combination of gasses, saline and sulphurous ingredients pass through of any in this country. When the water fails to achieve a beneficial change the virtues of tho exceUent fare nt tho McIntosh House are weighed and nevor found wanting. We have found though why there is such a wanting for chickens, mutton, etc., in your city. B. W. Collier, being Mayor of Mc Intosh, (name given Indian Spring by Legisla tive enactment of 18C6,) has appointed each of his twelve boys, including George and “Ns- tilas,” commissioners for districts between this point and Central City, for the purpose of “ooming” kleptomania on all innooent chickens and sheep that rove through these parts uncon scious of their nearness to the guillotine. The suocess of their labors are shown to ap preciative friends at every meal. Those of the guests who can be induced to leave the enticing dining hall have many opportunities of spending the honra in various enchanting ways. Between the McIntosh and Varner Houses, the latter built by General McIntosh in the early part of this oentory, is a large and well ventilated hall used by the skating and terpsichorean amateurs. Music discoursed by combined brass ami string bands, for tho benefit of skaters, steals through the many windows, and is wafted on the cool refreshing breeze, always blowing here, to the car* of the many married ladies who adorn the • long galleries in front of the hotel with their sweet faces, and neat and useful little work baskets, while the “coming man and woman" •re doing the honors to Terpsichore, and Major Williams, Colonel Lockett, and about fifty other widowers and old bachelors are stored away in the Urge promenading hall on the first floor of the McIntosh House, guarded from those whom man owes all happiness by clouds cigar smoke, playing that game Ah Sin did not understand. In front of tho Varner House is the celebrated rock on which McIntosh stood when he informed Jnnnssbogce and his fellow braves of tho con cession made to the few “pale faces” then living here, which ’tis well known caused hia untimely death. It is said this rock, weighing probably twenty-five tons, turns every time it hears a chicken crow. The chickens here seldom live to be large enough to use their voice as awam over this phenomenon. So tho rock will re main as it is till the waters dry up and the many thousands who have been here at different times will meet together. About fifty yards below this historical place is a large two story house, first floor furnished with elegant bathing rooms supplied by water from the spring about ten steps distant, on the second floor are several Russian bagatelle ta bles for the benefit of those who prefer playing “ten pins” on an improved plan to the old style practised across Sandy Creek at Elder’s bowl ing alley. There have been three new bridges bnilt across tho streams that fiowaronnd the Spring, oach ono erected wberelnnsbogee crossed with his beautiful Katherine McIntosh, a short time after he and his followers killed her father. Their love and courtship form an interesting romance for the Indian Spring Mirror's readers —a neat paper published hero. Those who have visited Indian Spring this season havo been, if possible, more impressed by the virtue' of tho water than ever before. A gentleman who has visited the place regular ly each year for the past twenty-five, says “the water is belter now than when he first felt its recuperating influence, though a recent analy sis has proven it the same as that of 183!) when analyzed by State Geologist Cotting. Tbo residents of Butts county, expect to have a narrow gauge railroad running within two or three miles of the Spring before next season. If completed it will place the water which like salvation in free to all, so convenient to health and pleasure seekers, that instead of two hundred visitors, the number will, as it abonld be, quadrupled. Stbanqeb. Letter from Chalybeate Springs. Chalybeate Speings, August 13, 1871. Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Theso Springs which seem to have att. acted a larger number of health and pleasure seekers this season than any in the State, aro delightfully, located in a mountainous part of Meriwether county, nml. those who desire to bo relieved from dull times, warm weather, and a lack of pleasure, can here find invigorating air,“shady trees, and waters as clear nnd‘sparkling as that with which the Indian Sagamoro slaked his thirst in that far off time when “Naremetta,” a maiden of the “Oherokees,” expired of grief because her warrior lover proved untrue; tho legend, (which I got from tho oldest inhabitant) runs that finding herself deceived, she did noth ing but lament her loss—her tears flowing in cessantly. At tho expiration of ten years; think ing dissolution about to take place, - she ex pressed a wish that the “Great Spirit” would i >erpetnato her memory as a warning to un- I aithful lovers; so that none might suffer such anguish as hers. Her prayer was 'undoubtedly heard and answered, for no sooner was sho buried, and while ihe echo of her “death song” was yet lingering among tho hills, a trem ulous motion of tho earth was felt, and near where she had shed tears so longaqd copiously, a rock openod and to this day sends forth a stream, which, whatever may bo said of its oth ers medicinal qualities is certainly an excellent remedy for affections of the heart. For any observer can daily see young and despairing lovers leave the hotel with serious faces and desponding hearts, but after wending their way to the Spring and partaking of some of “Nare- metta’s tears,” then wandering a short time in the adjacent groves, they are sure to return smiling and happy. There are some who insist that tho solitude of the groves, and tho oppor tunity for conversing away from the too watch ful eyes of guardians are incentives to love and devotion, but the oldest inhabitant tells me that it is tho effect of the water. Modem innovators, not satisfied with following tho customs of the “rod man” and simply drink ing at the fountain, have erected bathing houses near the spring, and now offer suffering hu manity an opportunity to immerse themselves in its life and love-preserving waters; and it is said by experienced persons that a few of these baths ronder one perfectly fascinating. But its' most extraordinary qualities are seen to the best advantage in cutaneous disorders; its in stantaneous effects upon the skin are truly as tonishing. I can myself bear witness of this; for standing near the spring one day I saw a lady and gentleman approach; the lady was young and a widow; the gentleman waswealthy and a bachelor. With mineral spring etiquette the gentleman offered her a cup of the elixir. With half averted head and one of those “simple nods and wordless smiles which woke a warmer throb than if the beanty spoke,” tho fascinator received and drank it. The gentleman mado a whispered observation. The lady's face, before unusually pale, suddenly become a oharming crimson. Borne rivals of the widow were Ill- natured enough to assert that it was the nature of the gentleman’s remark which caused the sudden flush, but the more intelligent aro satis fied that it was solely tho effect of the water. In addition to tho ordinary pastimes of riding, bathing, walking nnd lovo-making, there is skating and dancing. Last night there was a grand masked ball at which several hundred beautfcl ladies and gallant gentlemen indulged in tho exhilarating pastime of treading the in tricate labyrinths of tho “mazy.” Every pos sible kind of character was assumed, except one’s own, which dangerous experiment was not attempted. I regret very mnch that I was unable to learn the names of the many fnir ones present, but owing to tho nnusnal crowd I,with a numbor of others, were compelled to witness tho enter tainment through a window, “Like outcast And hang 'rou Boeing angels wil There were fine ladies from Macon, fair belles from Columbus, lovely angels from Savannah, and, in short, thero were fine, fair, lovely, sweet; bewitching creatures from all parts of the State concentrated in ono delightful sea of gauzo; and when tho entrancing music floated out upon tho air thero was a billowy movement for an in stant, and then tho angelic creatures assumed a thousand graceful positions; elegant gentle men responded in their best manner; hands were claspod, glances exchanged; then a simul taneous movement in all directions j then more attitudes, more forward and backward, until the ladies were tired and led to their seats, and your correspondent sauntered to his cabin say ing to himself: “0, hours of bliss To equal this v ' * Olympus strove in vain, O, happy pair, O, happy pair, O, happy, happy swam.

Fruit Trade in New Yobs.—The Commercial Advertiser of Wednesday evening says : The largest arrival of peaches daring the sea son occurred to-day. Since daybreak thero have been received no less than 192 car loads, and 8,500 crates by boat Yesterday’s arrivals amounted to 141 car loads and 5,000 erntes by boat, making a total in two days of 333 car loads and 13,500 crates. The prices are quite low, ranging from 80 cents to §1 50 per crate, This fruit sells very readily, and this afternoon there is not much left on hand. The capacity for consumption seems to expand equal to the supplies offering. The apple trade is very dull. The large sale of peaches forestalls tho demand for apples. The prices are from $1 50 to $2, and the best $3 per barrel. Pears are at differ ent prices, from r>0 cents to $5 per crate; good Bartietts are worth from $3 50 to $4 per crate, and from $S to $9 per barrel; ‘‘Duchess” and “Sickles” from $2 to $2 50 per crate. The mean depth of the North Atlantic Ocean, which is stated by Maury to be 12,500 feet, has been reduced by more elaborate soundings to 9.900, and it is probable, according to Keith Johnson, Jr., the geographer, that this average depth is greater than will be verified by future measurement. The Kev. Richard W ilkins, in a recent sermon in the church of St. Michael, Swanmoro, stated I his belief that there would be twelve women to one man who would enter heaven. This, he stated, was a calculation of his own, and was based on sacramental confession. OOXSUMPTION. Its Cure and Its Preventive. By J. HE. SOHENOK, M. D. Vf ANY a human being has passed away, for whose 111 death thero was no other reason than the neglect of known and indisputably proven means of oure. Those near and dear to family and friends aro sleep ing thodreamless slumber into which, had thoy calmly adopted DR. JOSEPH IV. SCHEXCK’S SIMPLE TREATMENT, and availed themselves of his wonderful efficacious medicines, they would not have fallen. Dr. Schenck has in bis own case prevod that wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vitality, by his medicines and his directions for their use. is quickened into health ful \o-or. In this statement there is nothing prosumptuous. To tho faith of the invalid is mado no representation that is not a thousand times substantiated by living and visible works. Tho theory of tho cure by Dr. dchenck’s medicines is as simple as it is unfailing, ts philosophy requires no argument. It is eelf- .:.-uxiug, self convincing. The Beiiwood Tonic and Mandrake Tills aro tho first two weapons with which tho citadel of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of tho case.* of consumption originate in dvspoDtia. and a functionally disordered liver. With this condition the bronchial tubes’’sym pathize” with the stomach, They respond to the morbifio action of the liver. Here then comes the enlminating rcsult, and the setting in, with all its dis tressing symptoms, of CONSUMPTION. ThoM&ndrake Pills are composed ot one of Nature’s noblost gifts—the Podophillnm f eltatam. They pos sess all tho blood-searching, altorativo properties of calomel, bnt unlike calomel, they “LEAVE NO STING BEHIND.” The work of cure is now beginning. The vitiated and mucous deposits in the bowels and in tho ali mentary canal axe ejected. Theliver, like a clock, is wound up. It arouses from its torpidity. The stom ach acts responsively, and the patient begins to feel that ho is setting, at last, * ' A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD. Tho Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the Pills permeates and assimilates with the food. Chylifica- tion is now progressing without its previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is Been to be at hand. Th ere is no more flatulenco, no cxcerbatlon of the stomach. An appetite setsin. Now comes tbo greatest Blood Purifier evor yet given by an indulgent father to suffering man. Schcnck'a Pulmonic Syrup comes in to perform its functions and to hasten and complete the euro, it enters at onco upon its work. Naturo cannot bo cheated. It collects and ripens the impaired and dis eased portions of the Inn gs. In the lorm of gather ings, it prepares them for expectoration, and lo 1 in a very short time the malady is vanquished, the rotten throno that it occupied is renovated ami mado new, and tho patient, in all the dignity of regained vigor, stops forth to enjoy the manhood or the womanhood that was GIVEN UP AS LOST. Tho second thing is, the patients must stay in a warm room until they get well: it is almost Impossi ble to prevent taking cold when tbe lungs are dis eased, but it must bo prevented or r. cure cannot bo effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in this section of tho country in tho fall and winter season, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that course lose their patients, if thoir lungs aro badly diseased, and yet, because they aro in tho house they must not sit down quiet: they must walk r.bout tho room as much and as fast as the strength will bear, to got up a good circulation of blood. The patients roust keep in good spirits—be determined to got well. This has a great deal to do with tho appetito, and is tho great point to gain. To d ispair of care after such evidence of its possibility in the worst cases, and moral certainty in allothers, is sinful. Dr.Schenck’s personal statement to the Faculty of his own cure was. in theso modest words: “Many years ago I was in the last stages of con sumption, confined to my bed. and at one time my physicians thought that I could not live a week; then liko a drowning man catching at straws, I heard of and obtained tho preparations which I now offer to tho public, and they made a perfect cure of mo. It seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my wholo system. They soon ripened the matter in my lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of offen sive yellow matter every morning for a long time. As soon as that began to subside, my cough, fever, pain and night sweats all began to leave me. and my appetite became so great that it was with difficulty -that I could keep from eating too mnch. I soon gained my strength and have grown in flesh ever since.” “I was weighed shortly after my recovery,” added the Doctor, “then looking liko a mere skeleton; my weight was only ninety-seven pounds: my present weight is two hundred and twenty-five (225) pounds, and lor years I have enjoyed uninterrupted health.” Dr. Seheack has discontinued his professional visits to New York and Boston. Ho or his son. Dr. J.H. Schenck, Jr., still continue to see patients at their office. No. 15 North Sixth street, Philadelphia, every ffaiurday from 9 A, st. to3r. st. Those who i thorough examination with the Respirometer will be charged J5. The Rospirometer declares the exact condition of the lungs, and ratients can readily learn whether they are curaole or not. Tho directions fortakingthe medicines areadapted to the intelligence even of a child. Follow these di rections. and kind Nature will do the rest, excepting that in some cases the Mandrake Pills are to be taken in increased doses: the three medicines need no other accompaniments than the ample instructions that ac company them: First create appetite. Of returning health hunger is the luostwelcome symptom. When itozmei, as it will come, let the despairing at once be of good cheer. Good blood at once foflows, the cough loosens, the night sweat is abated. In a short time bothofthese morbid symptoms are gone forever. Dr. Sehcnck’s medicines are constantly kept intens of thousands of families. As a laxative or purgative the Mandrake Pills are a standard preparation ; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as a curer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as a prophylaoteric against con- sumpt’on in any of its forms.

The Dractie&l operation of the Machines can be seen at the PASSENGER SHED of the Railroad Companies in MACON; also at the Printing and Publishing House of Messrs J. W. BURKE & 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 the U. S. Gaslight Comp* ny’s Machines, in operation since the 10th of No vember, 1870, and ii is perfectly satisfactory to ns in its general working and cheapness. We paid the Macon Gaslight Company for four months of last year and the year previous—viz : November, De cember, Januaiy and February—$399.5(1. In using this Machine our ga9 for the four corresponding months cost as $114—thus saving us in that time $285.56. The light is quite as good as that of the City Gas Company, and has the advantage of being entirely under our contra! 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 in the Machine or the light, and cheerfully recommend it.” [Signed] * J. W. BURKE Jt CO. For information or testimonials, apply to EDWARD ROWE, Post-office box 159. Macon, Ga., WM.
