The Mabket-vai.ce of a Good Appetite- Itis said that in some parts of the world where large numbers of men are employed, temporarily, in contract jobs, such as the construction of canals, railroads and the like, when it is deemed necessary to reduce the staff, the overseers go among the men when eating, and single out for discharge all such as fail to approve themselves valiant trencher- knights ; judging that the intrepid wielder of his kmfe-and-fork will be the last man to bring dis honor npon his hitherto untarnished pick-axe; and that ho who shovels-in the heaviest cargo of boef and potatoes, will, in all likelihood, ehovel-ont, with a corresponding vigor, the stubbomest sub soil. And, in so judging, they act in strict accord ance with the teachings of physiological science. That is to say, supposing a man to eat in obedience to a healthy, natural appetite, and with powers of digestion to correspond. For those who are lauda bly ambitious of getting up a vigorous sppetite and digestion, and, as a consequence, vigorous health generally, nothing is better than Dr. Gottlieb Fisch Bitters. anglS-eodAwlw. saglltf W.

Medical Mistakes.—It took the faculty about a thousand years to discover that the beet way to core disease was not to render the patient too weak to contend with it. Within the last twenty years, how- ever, the whole system of medical practice liasbeen changed for the better. In diseases or complaints caused by excessive heat, for instance, the doctors no longer recommend the redaction of the invalid's strength by prostrating medicines. The vast suc cess which has attended the uso of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as a remedy for debility, has given even the most prej udiced members of the old school an insight into the only true and rational theory of cure. Cantharides, calomel, and overpowering doses of opium, are now among the obsolete nos trums of anothor age. The lancet, once as much the legitimate weapon of the physician as the Bword is of the soldier, is seldom drawn from its case. The principle of lifo is no longer drained from the veins by the quart, and water-gruel for the strength- i less invalid has ceasod to be considered an appro- | priate diet. Vigor is tbo motto of the rational mem bers of the profession, and they understand, at [ last, the value of a sterling vegetable tonic. So, also, with the people at large; and without consult ing medical men at all, thoy have adopted the bit- tere as a household remedy, thereby economising both cash and health. Koto the fact, that Hoetotter’sStomach Bitters is sold in bottles only, never in bulk, and that the abortions springing up in various parts of the coun- [ try, and sometimes offered as substitutes for the great national specific, are all utterly worthless. Pebtixkjit.—The intelligent reader, be he artist or artisan, will find a very pertinent ques tion or two in the following, and just like our great photographist and jolly friend, Riddle, it has a refreshing smack of sauce about it. No one can say that he is not right: Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Gentle men.—There is one question that I wish to pro pound to the committee on premiums at onr coming State Fair. They offer, nnder the head of fine arts, a premium of twenty-five dollars (in plate) for the beBt photograph of the Fair Ground, to become the property of the Society, Ac. I have been following the discovery of Daguerre for twenty-five years, but I must say that I cannot see how such a picture can be taken. Therefore, will the gentlemen corn- poring that committee please tell, for the bene fit of the photographic fraternity of this State, how 8nch a pioture can be made. I think, Messrs. Editors, that it would require a camera obscura about the size of our new temple of justice on theeomer of Mulberry and Second streets, elevated on a scaffold about five hund red feet bigb, and situated on the apex of that large Indian mound in East Macon, being at an angle of forty-five degrees on the Fair Grounds, to do justice to the subject; for I tell you, sirs, the Central City Fair Ground is a big thing, at least a medium-sized man who signs his name (except on onr circulating medium) W. A. Huff, is going to make it so. Now, had those in authority offered a premium, if but one dollar, for the best collection of plain photo graphs, for the best collection of colored—in water or oil—the same for Porcelain pictures, views, &o., there would have been a chance to put on exhibition many of our beautiful ladies, gentlemen and palatial residences, many of which adorn our city—for what would add more to the interest and beauty of the occasion than a fine collection of photographic portraits and views. Very respectfully, A. J- Kiddle. One tbial Suffices to prove that Dooley's Ohemical Yeast Baking Powder is superior in every respoct to any other ever manufactured.

Alderman Clay seeing his muleships’ performance ran out into the Btreet and headed off the “creetur,” and tie had a nice time in an effort to hold it, but he succeeded. He seized it by the ears and nose, and it lifted him clear of the ground and swung him around like a top.

The affair afforded some fine fun for the crowd about the Brown House. tinue, repeat the dose every ten or fifteen minutes until the patient is relieved. In extreme cases, two or more teaspoonfuls may be given at a dose. The Pain Hiller, as an internal remedy, has no equal. In cases of cholera, summer oomplaints, dyspepsia, dysentery, asthma, it curoa in one night by taking it internally, and bathing with it freely. Its action is like magic, when externally applied to old sores, bums, scalds, and sprains. For sick headache and toothace, don’t fail to try it. In abort, it is a Pain Khleb.
