Mimc.il Mistakes.—It took the faculty about a
thousand years to discover that the boet way to cure
dUeaie was not to render the pationt too weak to
contend with it. Within the last twenty years, how.
•rsr, the whole system of modical practice has been
changed for the better. In diaeaaee or complaints
caucsd by excessive heat, for instance, the doctors
no longer recommend the redaction of the invalid's
atrsngth by prostrating medicines. The vast euo-
c«ss which has attended the nto of Hoetetter's
Stomach Bitters as a remedy for debility, has given
even the most prejudiced members of the old school
an inaigbt into the only true and rational theory of
two. Cantharides, calomel, and overpowering
doses of opium, aro now among the obsolete nos
trums of another age. The lancet, once as much
the legitimate weapon of the physician as the sword
i* of the soldier, is seldom drawn from its case.
The principle of life is no longer drained from the
idns by ths quart, and water gruel for the strength-
lees Invalid has coaaed to bo considered an appro
priate diet. Vigor ie the motto of the rational mom-
hen of the profession, and they understand, at
lest, the value of a sterling vegetable tonic. So,
also, with the people at large; and without consult
ing medical men at all, they havo adopted the bit
ten u a household remedy, thereby economising
both cash and hoalth.
Note tho fact, that Hoetetter’s Stomach Bitters is
•eld in bottles only, never in balk, and that the
Abortions springing up in various parts of the ooun-
ity, and sometimes offered as substitutes for the
gnat national specific, are ail utterly worthless.
The Mabket-value or a Good Appetite-—It is
•rid that in some parts of the world where large
numbers of men are employed, temporarily, in
contract jobs, such as tho construction of canals,
railroads and the like, when it Is deemed necessary
to reduce tho staff, the overseers go among the
Sen when eating, and single out for discharge all
•uch as fail to approve themselves valiant trencher-
hnights; judging that the intrepid wielder of his
bufe-and-fork will be the last man to bring dis-
honot upon his hitherto untarnished pick-axe; and
that bo who ahoveis-in the heaviest cargo of beef
*ud potatoes, will, in all likelihood, shovel-out,
with a corresponding vigor, the stnbbomest sub-
toil And, in so judging, they act in strict aocord-
*uo* with tho teachings of physiological science.
Thais to say, supposing a man to eat in obedience
to a healthy, natnrai appetite, and with powers of
digestion to correspond. For those who are lauda
bly ambitious of getting np a vigorous appetite
digestion, and, as a consequence, vigorous
health generally, nothing is better than Dr. Gottlieb
Ft»ch Bitten. auglS-eod&wlw.

The trial of the alleged bigamist, J. T. Sneed,
oomea np at the next term of the Baldwin Su
perior Court, which convenes at Milledgeville
to-morrow week.
Rev. S. Botkin.—This gentleman has severed
his connection with Macon, and is now con
nected with the Baptist paper of Memphis,
Tenn. He has onr best wishes for a long life
of happiness and prosperity.
The northeast gale, blowing for several days
with real follish air, lolled yesterday and left
the sun shining npon tho earth in all its inten.
sity. We are again getting dry and beginning
to need rain badly.
Hob8E-Shoedjo.—Mr. George Hay, tho great
Canadian horse-shoer, can now be fonnd at the
shop of B. T. English, on the alley in the rear
of Burke £ Co.’s bookstore. In h?« particular
line of work, ho is said havo no superior in
the South.
Up to yesterday the contract for opening
Second street to an intersection with tho Hous
ton road had not been awarded. Five or six has
been made npon the work, and wo presume the
Ordinaiy will be able to make a selection from
the lot. >
The. masons aro still at work building the
bridge over the Macon and Western Railroad,
connecting the city with Tattnall Square. It
will be an arch, and the floor broad enough to
freely admit wagons and the street cars.
The first bale of new cotton from Terrell
county was recoived yesterday by Sanlsbnry,
Rospess & Co., from Messrs. Grim &.Tucker, of
Dawson. It classed good ordinnry, and was
sold at 15 cents.
Oub little ono-horso market still keeps up
a pretty good show of meats and vegetables,
notwithstanding the lateness of the season.
Fruit is at least dirt cheap—abont fifty cents
per bnshel for peaches, and not very good bar
gains at that. Our housewives are busy putting
them np.
Pebsonal.—If E— R— will call on T. & G.
ho will hear something to his advnntago. No
more bnmt rolls, sodden biscuits and underdone
beef to mortify his pretty little wife. E. R.
oan avoid ail these household ills by purchasing
a Charter Oak Cooking Stove of Truman A
Green, Triangular Block. Time propitious—
wife worried—cook dissatisfied and sassy. “De
lay is dangerous.”
Sudden Death.—A well known and popular
yonng man of this city was taken with a con
gestive chill on Thursday night last, and died
abont 2r.it. yesterday. He was to have been
married on next Thursday night. His sister is
lying dangerously ill in a neighboring State,
and we are specially requested not to call his
name, for fear tho terrible shock might prove
fatal to her.
We understand that the contract for furnish
ing the cross ties for tho street railroad has
been awarded to tho Messrs. McGinty, and, as
before stated, that for the stringers has been
let to Major Armstrong. Their mills are al
ready at work npon them, and we presume they
will be delivered in a few days. Two months
yet remain for the completion of the road before
the State Fair, and we hope the Directors will
shove matters with sufficient energy to accom
plish it.
Plenty to Eat Out West.—A Maconian,
now lumbering aronnd the Western markets,
reports bacon, com, flonr, and all those sort of
things are literally as plentiful as blackberries.
He says their houses and granaries are still
staffed fall of provisons, and the season for sell
ing nearly ran ont. And better still, tho crops
are as fine as they well can be. He thinks
bacon will be worth about five and seven cents
per pound in Macon next year, corn in propor
tion, Soar ditto. Wo have not the slightest ob*
jection to its going down to a lower point than
ever heard of before.
Hiqhwax Robbebt.—Mr. Stephen Melton, a
well known citizen of Macon, was approached
on Poplar street, between Second and Third,
abont 10 o’clock on Friday night last, by an illy
clad woman, as he thought, who engaged him
in conversation for a moment, but long enough, :
it appears, for her confederates to walk up and
seize Mr. Melton. The three daring villi ans
then proceeded to rob him of abont $120. They
discussed the question as to whether they would 1
take his watch, bnt determined quickly not to
do so. The three then hastily left, and in their
flight dropped the pocket-book containing the
money—leaving about $20 in it which they
probably did not get hold of in the dark. The
affair occurred almoat in the heart of the city,
and for boldness equals anything of the kind
that ever transpired here. It is almost incred
ible.
Stonxwabe Fbuit Jabs.—A No. 1 article—
Truman & Green are selling these Jars at the
extremely low price of $2 per dozen to cloee ont
the lot.
Don’t Foboet these Two Facts ! 1 That
W ing A Solomon are the agents of tho Grover
A Baker Sewing Machines and of the II A M.
Spectacles—the best in use.
Wing A Solomon, appreciating ths stringency
of money matters, offer their large and elegant
stock of Watches, Jewelry and Silverware at
lower prices than ever offered before in this
city, and will make price an object to any ono
wanting goods in their line. Repairing and En
graving done in the best style and at lowest
rates. Hairwork of any description done at
abort notice. Work upon the most intricate
and difficult watches executed and guaranteed
by Mr. H. Peacock, a practical and scientific
watchmaker, for several years past with Mr.
It. H. Wing.
Gbeeb, Lake A Co.—These popular and en
terprising fancy grocerB, in order to increase
their usefulness anil enlarge their business fa-
oilities, have leased for a term of years, the
commodious store-house on the comer of Third
and Cherry streets, recently occupied by L L.
Harris A Co., druggists. They have now a
splendid stand and ample room for the storage
and handling of goods, and we predict that be
fore another year shall have passed they will
find their business more than doubled. On
opening their new quarters last night, like consin
Sallio Dillard, they “gin a treat,” in the shape of
several baskets of elegant champagne, accom.
pamed with a most palatable lunch and the
best brand of cigars. Of course a host of friends
gathered around to drink their health and pros'
perity. One of them with about four glasses
of champagne inaide and another to his lips,
said: “May no financial storm ever ruffle the
bosom of our placid Lake, and may all the
patrons of this house meet their bills, when
presented, Qrace-tvtUj and a-ffrccr-bly.” See
ing that ho was approaching a crisis, we left to
invite attention to the advertisement of Greer,
Lake A Go.
Time was when the Drag and Medicine busi
ness in Macon was qnite a small trade, but this
cannot be said of it now. The capital and en
terprise of the wholesale Druggists, Messrs.
Hunt, Rankin A Lamar, on Cherry street, havo
built them up a very large trade. In addition
to the three floors of .82 and 84 Cherry street,
they occupy one of Mr. Huff’s largo cellars on
Cotton avenue, in which their Potash, White
Load, Congress Water, and other heavy goods
are stored. They also store their Kerosene Oil
at another plaoe, from one to two car loads of
which they keep always on hand. The satisfac
tory manner in which this concern handles
goods, gives them of course the bulk of tho
wholesale business in this section, and it is their
intention to increase it largely, by attracting
trade which would otherwise go North.
Go Ahead.—There is no better way of judg
ing the prosperity of a place than by the spirit
of go-aheaditiveness in its merchants, and our
Macon merchants certainly Bhow a large share
of this spirit. For instance, there is the go-
ahead firm of J. H. Zeilin A Co., who are daily
receiving large shipments of drugs, medicines,
paints, oils, and in fact, all kinds of goods in
their line, and they are determined by selling
so cheap that no trade will leave Macon for New
York or anywhere else. So consult your interest
and give them a call before ordering iwm else
where. m
McLean’s Cobdxal and Blood Purifier is the
best tonic and blood alterative in the world.

Synopsis or Weather Statement.
War Dep’t, Office Chief Signal Officer, 1
Washington, D. C., August 19, 7:40 p. it. ’ J
The temperature has fallen at the Pacifio and
Rocky Mountain stations, and has risen some
what from Kentucky to Michigan and Missouri.
The low barometer has extended to Michigan,
and light rains'oro reported from Minnesota.
The high barometer has extended from Indiana
eastward to the Atlantio coast, and the pressure
is now rising in the Middle and Eastern States
with dry, smoky and hazy weather. Local areas
of low pressure, with incipient storms in north
ern New England, havo been dissipated by the
prevailing dry weather. Cloudy and rainy
weather, with northeasterly winds, have pre
vailed on the north Atlantio coast, and the cy
clone, after advancing northwestward over Flor
ida, passed northeastward near Savannah and
east of Charleston, and is now central about 100
miles northeast of Wilmington. Probabilities:
The cyclone will probably keep at some dis
tance off the North Carolina coast, but easterly
winds are probable from North Carolina to
Massachusetts, with rain on the immediate
coast south of Delaware. Smoky and fair
weather will probably continue in the Middle
and Eastern States, and on the Lower Lakes.
Partially cloudy and clear weather on the Gulf
coast. The low barometer in the northwest
will probably give rise to a few light local storms
on the Upper Lakes to-night.
Paris, Augnst 19.—The German forces are
withdrawing from the neighborhood of tho for
tifications north and east of Paris.
London, August 19.—The European Syndi
