HxLr fob the Nervous.—Where la It to bo found?
cries tho trembling victim of nervous debility. Not
in the tavern dram; that fires up the circulation for
a moment, and is euccoedod by collapse. Not in pur
gative pUls, or a Lon ten diet, bnt in an invigorant
tod restorative in which tho tonic elements are
netted with general apenent and altorativo proper
ties. When Hoatetter's Stomach Bitters was intro
duced nearly twenty years ago, this important ob
ject was first attained. This poacofnl and activo
vegetable specific is as j uatly celebrated for its cures
of nervous diseases, as for tbo absolate certainty
with which it relioves dyspepsia and bilioosnoss.
lbs hot weather toward tho closo of summer gene
rally aggravates diseases of a norvoua type, creating
a degree of feebleness which is beyond measure
distressing. Under such circumstances rally tbo
bodily energies with a course of Hostetler's Stomach
Bitters. Of all tonics, it is the most satisfactory in
its operations, and tho least exciting. It braces
tho nerves op to their natural tension, bnt not bo-
yond it, so there is no reaction. It has other
properties, however, than those of a nervine, and
as a blood depuront and moderate aperient, is
superior to any other medicino of the dsy.
Fraud, however, is on the alert. Tho celebrity
of tho original medicino baa given rise to scores of
counterfeits and imitations. Examine the label,
•Od tho fat limit* of tbo signature of the firm; soo
that tbo spelling is all correct, and thus make suro
of tho genuineness of the article you buy. P. 8.—
Hostetler's Bitters are never sold in kegs or barrels,
hut in bottles only.

Nrw Cotton.—The third bale of now cotton
was received yesterday by Messrs. Jonathan
Collins & Son, from the plantation of Mr. John
P. Fort, in Snmter county. It weighed 431
pounds and classed ordinary. It was sold at
14 cents.
Hr.AT.TY.—Wo were informed yoaterday by
ono of onr beat physicians and largest practi
tioners, that Macon is now healthier than at any
time within the last twenty years. There is
really no sickness worth mentioning. The city
sexton says he is not making enough to pay off
his laborers at the cemetery.
BittSOAD Accident.—The night freight and
accommodation train from Columbus for this
city, was thrown from the track and down an
embankment at Bear Creek, twenty miles this
side of Colombns, on Tuesday night last. Six
teen freight cars were thrown off and some of
them got badly smashed. No person was seri-
onsiy injured. Tho accidont was caused by tho
breaking of an axlo of tho tender.
Onlt Twenty Tickets Left.—Messrs Brown
&. Co., the agentsin this cityforthesaleof tick
ets in the Memphis Beal Estate Distribution en
terprisc, inform ns that they have now only
twenty tickets left of the three hnndred placed
in their hands for sale. Tho distribution comes
ofi on the 31st instant, and the sale of tickets
wiil close on the 25th. So it is clear that those
who would like to win a fine prize should call
and take a chance before that time.
Seuiocs Accident.—From Borne unaccounta
ble cause, we have foiled heretofore to mention
tbo fact, that on lost Saturday night week, Maj
B. F. Dense, of tho Planters’ Hotel, while
crossing Mulberry street where tho new Ma
sonic Hall is being built, stumbled over some
planks or building material lying in the street,
and dislocated his shonlder and fractnrod his
collar bone. He has been closely confined
since the accident, bnt, wo are glad to learn, is
convalescing.
Savannah and Boston Steamship Linz.—Our
merchants and the traveling pnblio are particu
larly invited to note the advertisement of this
new line from Savannah to New York.
Those who purchase shoos, fish and other ar
ticles from New England, will find it greatly to
their interest to have them shipped direct from
Boston, thus saving time, and the additional ex
pense of receiving them in the usual way, via
New York. The rates of freight are very low,
and passengers will bo provided with admirable
board and state room accomodations.
Boutko Stock.—Messrs. Demarost & Wood
ruff have now in store and daily arriving, one
of the largest stocks of buggies, phietons, cab
riolets, carriages, wagons, etc., ever offered in
Central Georgia. These articles are manatee
tured by this firm, at tbeir extensive establish
ment in New York, ont of the best material and
by tho host of workmen, and they know what
thoy are soiling. Hence they always givo satis
faction. Mr. Asa W. Chapman is always on
hand at the repository in this city, Hoff’s now
bnilding, Third street, where ho will tako pleas
ure in showing yon through the stock. Befer
to the advertisement.
SoDTHEBN PsiZE PACKAGE COMPANY.—This
company havo opened a store on the north side
of Cherry street, second door below Besore’s
auction house, where thoy will sell their famous
prize packagos of pure French mixed candies
and ladies’ bon-bons. Each of these packages
contains a prize in silvor money or greenbacks,
ranging in value from 5 cents up to $20. There
is in tho stock $10,000 to bo thus given away.
Eaoh package is sold for fifty cents and each has
a prize, so that ono may secure $20 for 50 cents.
The bnsiness is conducted on sonnd and honor
able principles and impartially, as the vendor of
the packages docs not know himself what prizes
they contain wbon handing them ont.
The City Money.—Here and elsewhere, ainco
the bnsinoss-liko and straightforward letter of
Mayor Hnff, in regard to tho city finances, ap
peared, there has been an effort on the port of
a few to depreciate tho city money, and make
a big fuss over the oity's liabilities. It iB all
bosh. The money is ns good as any, and better
seonrod than greenbacks. Just wait awhile, ye
weak-kneed and frightened, until a fair assess
ment of the taxable proporty of Macon is made,
and yon will then seo what the money is worth.
Think of it. What is $200,000 to a city like
Macon? Why, sirs, before one dollar of her
currency should go by the board or be repudi
ated, the whole amount could be raised in thirty
days. The city; is in debt, it is true, just like all
other cities, bnt wo deny emphatically that it is
hopelessly so, or that the wholo debt could not
be paid easily within three years. But why, wo
ask, should onr property holders bo subjected
to a heavy and special tax in order to remove
immediately the city’s indebtedness? Who is
suffering for tho money? and what is the neces
sity of all this hullabaloo about the city’s finan
cial affairs. Let us go along patiently—pay tho
interest on tho debt as it falls due; give the city
government a cordial and liberal support, and
not seek to embarrass it by croaking and crowd
ing ; and let each real estate owner in the city
pay taxes according to a fair estimate of its value,
and onr word for it, there will soon be no canse
for grnmbling abont the city money from any
quarter.
The Cheat Benefactos.—Jlr. Local: Allow

A long editorial in tho Tribune deprecatory
of the split in tho Republican party of Louis
iana, has this sentence: “Bat we rejoice to
hear that tho President promptly repulsed the
doings of his New Orleans subordinates, and as
now reported, proposes to show his apprecia
tion of their misconduct in office by turning
them out.” The article is captioned “The New
Orleans Outrage.”
Tho Treasury Department decides that a ves
sel propelled by both high and low pressure

New Yoek, August 18.—The coroner’s verdict
is to the effect that the decoased, Coyle and
others, died through a rupture or explosion of
tho boiler of the ferryboat Westfield, July 30th;
that said explosion or rnpinre was caused by a
flaw in the iroD, and by the negligence of Engi
neer Robinson in carrying an overpressure of
steam; that tho company are responsible for
the disaster, as tho defect eonld have been de
tected if the Staten Island Ferry Company had
a competent superintendent, engineer or me
chanic in their employ, and are therefore crim
inally negligent. We recommend the district
attorney to take prompt action in the matter.
We also think the Government inspection very
imperfect, as now conducted.
There was one dissentient, Mr. KoAland,
who believed that the flaw could not be dis
covered by tho ordinary mode of inspection.

ed, retired to prepare warrants for tho arrest of

CHOLERA
HOW TO CURE IT.
At the commencement of the diarrhas, which al
ways precedes an attack of the”cholera. take a
tcaepoonful of
THE PAIN KILLER
n sugar and water, (hot if convenient,) and then
bathe freely the stomach and bowels with the Pain
Killer clear. Should the diarrbcc or cramps con
tinue, repeat the dose every ten or fifteen minutes
until the patient is relieved. In extreme cases,
two or more toaspoonfuls may be given at a dose,
Tho Pain Killer, as an internal remedy, has no
eqnal. In cases of cholera, summer complaints,
dyspepsia, dysentery, asthma, it cures in one night
by taking it internally, and bathing with it freely.
Its action is like magic, when externally applied to
old sores, burns, scalds, and sprains. For sick
headache and tootbace, don’t fail to try it. In
abort, it is a Pain Killer.
Directions accompany each bottle.
Tho Pain Killer is sold by all dealers in medi
cines.
Prico 25 cents, 50 cents and $1 per bottle.

NEW ARRANGEMENT
FOR
F-dh-UL., 1871
Having disposed of all but a remnant of onr Groceries, we think proper to announce that we shall not
replenish that branch of our business, as we have determined to abandon it altogether. This change
does not contemplate any redaction of our business, bat is found necessary to encourage rather than
check the rapid growth of our business in other departments. In future we shall devote ourselves ex
clusively to
DRY GOODS,
BOOTS AND SHOES,
CLOTHING AND HATS.
FURNISHING GOODS.
AND NOTIONS.
In our Retail Department, we shall offer Dry Goods alone. By Wholesale, wo shall offer at all sea
sons the best stock in all the enumerated branches to he found in this State, or south of New York.
We invite the attention of Merchants to an examination of onr stock of
Domestics and Woollen Goods*
Which were bought before the late advance, and in which wo can offer great inducements. We shall
deal heavily in all
GEORGIA MADE GOODS,
And have made special arrangements with leading Factories whereby wo Bhall never require more than
the Factory price. We shall make a special business of
CALICOES,
And shall keep at all times a stock from which any size order can bo filled.
As we seldom fail to make good impressions on merchants who know their bnsiness. we hope to re
ceive calls from many this season who have hitherto failed to do so, as onr Btock will be unusually at
tractive, aud our promptness in buying certain goods before tlio advance enables ns to offer some good
bargains. Respectfully,
J. £. BOSS & S. T. COLEMAN.
