Base Ball at Oglethorpe. Fobt Valley, Ga., August 18,1871. Messrs. Editors Telegraph and Messenger : Base ball, so universally popularized as to be known as onr national game, has not yet lost its interest and its prestige with onr young peo ple. Tired of political, agricultural, conven tion and crop news, which has crowded the. col umns of out glorious old Tjelegbaph and Mrs- srNGB—universally acknowledged the best con ducted news journal of the South—by way of episode it may be interesting to some cf your numerous readers to give a brief account of one of the brightest days, rich in social, innocent and splendid enjoyment to the young people of this section of country.

TESTIMONIALS : It may be observed that no attempt is made to hunt np out of-the-way or unknown places to find names to endorse this medicine; it is appreciated right at home, and wherever it hag been used. All that is asked is to give it a trial, and we have no fear of the result. TRY DRUGS AND MEDICINES. Simmons’ editorial, cobkespondesce. Savannah, August 20, 1871 jlj iut communication was dispatched amid ^ tost of the elements and the prevalence in ill it» toy one those terrific hurricanes, 5 ,{j, occasionally visit Iho Atlantio coast. In nolenee and destructiveness they resemble the c„*ded cyclone, of whose awfnl effects we tlW heard so much. A native of this coast and . c . j^inp there during the larger portion of his c fc, the writer has a vivid recollection of the irresistible power of the storm king, and the wrecked and forlorn appearance all nature pro- j<ntf, w ben the tempest subsides, and the (rinds ate again caged in the caverns of Sold*. btormh op the present century. Authentic records of three gieat hurricanes in this latitude (exclusive of the lato gale) hove been preserved since Iho beginning of the 19th MDtory. The first boars date September, 1804, and nathe most destructive of them alL Whole dwelling upon the Mends which fringe the coast of Liberty and McIntosh counties wore swept away by the rising tide, and perished miserably. A curious incident is related of a very pious but eccentrio old lady who was dis covered daring the height of the storm, cling ing to the boughs of an uprooted tree, and singing most devoutly the familiar refrain. “Saviour, visit thy plantation. Send ns, Lord, a gracious rain.” She Was rescued, and certainly bad no cause to complain that her prayer was unanswered. The next hurricane occurred also in Septeni- Ixr, 1824. It was a terrible tempest; and dwellings were prostrated, stock killed, cotton ini corn fields submerged, and the prospects of the husbandman utterly ruined. Serious loss of life also Inccompanied this calamity. The third grand blow, on the 8th of September, 1854, was witnessed by the writer. For a week previous light and variable winds had prevailed from the northeast, with occasional showers. Ou the afternoon of tho day ailnded to, however, the sky bcoame overcast with opaque and wild looking clouds, which chased each other like armed hosts across tho empyreum. The wind Mew in fitful gusts with intervening periods of perfect stillness, during which all the universe seemed hashed in preternatural repose. Im mense Hooks of martins skimmed the surface of the earth, and sea gulls, pellicanB and other water fowls wheeled through tho air with omin ous cries of approaching danger. Suddenly the tempest, in all its wrath, burst upon the af frighted inhabitants. Floods of rain descended, hehed into spray ere it reached tho oarth. The wind shifted and veered from point to point, cntil it had boxed tho entire compass. The pints of tho forest reeled and staggered, then fell with the crash of tbnnder, by thonsands. Dwellings were dismantled or leveled to tho pound; barns and gin-houses overthrown and their contents scattered for miles; stables de frayed, and the poor animals in them maimed or killed; smiling fields teeming with their ripening fruits submerged and desolated; ves sel, driven from their moorings, were stranded high and dry miles from the deep; cranes, sea gulls, gasnets and other water-fowls, driven far rate the interior by the gale, were captured or shot in the corn and cotton fields; every road in the county was blocked up by the trunks cf fallen trees, and till communication between localities for the time suspended; in short all nature looked like chnos had come again, and the demon of destruction was abroad in tho had—ofoourae tho oTops were almost annihi lated. The scene yesterday reminded ns of that fearful period, but though as much water Ml, the wind did not rage so ferociously. ArrEARANGE OF THE CITY. The debris of the storm may be seen on every fide, in the shape of prostrate trees, broken hmba, shattered signs, window shutters, and rolls of tin from the roofs and flooded streets. Happily no lives were lost, though much appre hension is felt for the shipping on the coast. It is a curious meteorological fact which is again confirmed, that all of tho northeastern gales commence at the South, and gradually work their way northward. Tho weather obser vatories at 'Washington proved, in this instance wonderfully correct. COMMODORE MAURY. ( . , And here, en passant, we feel constrained to express our indignation that the United States bovernment should have stolen the thunders of this distinguished Southron,who became a rebel so-friled, in disgrace. His theories of wind sad sea currents, charts, etc., etc., have all been appropriated and turned to practical account,while their great author neither receives credit or compensation for his scientific discov eries. What arrant National robbery! THE rEAOETUTi SABBATH. With the dawn bf this glorious day of rest, the exhausted elements ceased their strife, and tae blue and serene sky, lit np by tho gorgeous 6°d of day, sent life and hope and happiness to every heart. A pure and bracing atmosphere quickened the pulses, and tempted multitudes to repair to the sanctuary of the living God, at the snm- raonaof the many sweet-toned bells which re- verberated through the city.

The brass band dis coursed sweet mnsio while the dinner was be ing prepared by the noble ladies of Oglethorpe. Tho dinner was supervised by Colonel W H. Willis, Captain Charles Keen, and Major J. Bat tle. And snch a dinner! tho tables groaned | nnder the snperahundant weight of beef, pork, mntton, kid, ham, chicbens, eto. After dinner the crowd spent a few honrs in I free and easy social intercourse. Convention- | cities were ignored and the law governing was, that every one was at liberty to talk with any I one and all others, and upon any and all topics —only remembering that we were a Christian ] people and tho eye of God was upon ns. At four o’clock, tho game commenced and I lasted until half past. six. Unacquainted with the technicalities of the game, I can only give yon tho results. Tho nines were composed as I follows: Fort Valley: W. B. Mathews, Capt; Austin Russell, Sanford, Brantley, Groen, Preston, Braswell, Mathews, J. R. Past Times: Willie" Fish, Capt; Jones, Willis, Webb, Montfort, Hndson, Williams, Fcagin, Summerlin. The game clewed by mutual consent with the seventh inning, the score standing: Fort Valley Nine 35 I Pastimo Nine 23 Then with three hearty cheers for the Fort Valleys and three more for the-Pastimes, and a “tiger” for tho umpire, the crowd slowly dis- [ persed with gay jests and merry laughter, high ly delighted with the game. The Pastimes bore I their defeat with that graceful good hnmored politeness that ever characterizes true gentle men. The Fort Valley nine were escorted by Capt. Fish and Dr. Armstrong to the residence of the former, where they were regaled with a | most elegant supper. That prince among gal lant gentlemen, Col. Willis, President of the club, cared for the band in the same manner. At night tho day’s sports ended with a grand I of known and indisputably proven means of oure. sociable,” given at Styles’ Hotel.

To the faith of the invalid is made no representation that is not a thousand times substantiated by living and visiblo works. Tho theory of tho cure by Dr. Schenck’s medicines is as simplo as it is unfailing. Its philosophy requires no argument. It is self- arsoring, Eelf-convinciDg. Tho beawood Tonio and Mandrake Pills are tho first two weapons with which the citadel of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of the esses of consumption originate in dyspepsia and a functionally disordered liver. With this condition tho bronchial tubes “sym- pnthixe” with tho stomach, They respond to the morbifio action of tho liver. Here then comes the culminating result, and tho setting in, with all itsdis- trossingsymptoms, of coiismtpnox. The Mandrake Pills are composed of one of Nature’s noblest gifts—the Podophillum Feltatum. They pos sess all tho blood-searching, alterative properties of calomel, but unlike calomel, they “LEAVE NO STING BEHIND.” The work of cure is now beginning. The vitiated and mucous deposits in the bowels and in the ali mentary canal are ejected. The liver. like a clock, is woundup. It arouses from its torpidity. The stom ach actB responsively, and the patient begins to feel that he is getting, at last. A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD. The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the Pills permeates and assimilates witn the food. Chylifica- tion is now progressing without its previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be at hand. Tb ere is no more flatulence, no excerbation of the stomach. An appetite sets in. Now comes the greatost Blood Purifier ever yet given by an indulgent lather to suffering man. Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup comes in to perform its functions and to hasten aDd oomi-lste the cure. It enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot be cheated. It collects and ripens the impaired and dis eased portions of the lungs. In the form of gather ings, it prepares them for expectoration, and lo 1 in a very short rime the malady is vanquished, the rotten throne that it occupied is renovated andmadenew, and the patient. In all the dignity of regained vigor, steps forth to enjoy the manhood or the womanhood that was GIVEN BP AS LOST. The 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 the lungs are dis eased, but it must be prevented or & cure cannot be effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in this section of the country in the fall and winter season, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that course lose their patients, if their lungs are badly diseased, and yet, because they are in the bouse they must not sit down quiet; they must walk about the roomas much and as fast as the strength wlU bear, to get up a good circulation of blood. The patients must keep in good spirits—bo determined to get well. This has a great deal to do with the appetite, and is the great point to gain. To despair of cure alter snch evidence of its possibility in the worst cases, and moral certainty in ail others, is sinful. Dr. fcchenck’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 ' lysicians thought that I could not live a week; then ;e a drowning man catching at Btraws, I heard of and obtained the preparations which I now offer to the public, and they mado a perfect cure of me. It seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my whole system. They soon ripened the matter in my lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of offen sive yellow a atter 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 much. I soon gained my strength and have grown in flesh ever since.” “I was weighed shortly after my recovery,” added the Doctor, “then looking like 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. Scbonck has discontinued his professional visits to New York and Boston. He or his son. Dr.J. H. Schenck, Jr.,still continue to see patients at their office. No. 15 North Sixth street, Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 A, M. to 3 p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination with the Respirometer will be charged $5. Tho Kespirometer declares the exact coridd en of the Innss, and patients caa readily learn w hether thoy are curable or not. The directions for taking the medicines areadapted to tbe 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 needno other accompaniments than the ample instructions that ac company them: First create appetite. Of returning health hunger is the most welcome symptom. When itc unci, as it will come, let the despairing at once be of good cheer. Good blood at once follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat is abated. In a short time bothofthese morbid symptoms are goneforever. Dr. Schenck’s medicines are constantly kept intern of th >u?ands of families. As a laxative or purgative the Mandrake Pills are a standard preparation ; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as a curerof coughs and colds, may be regarded as a rrophylacterio against con sumption in any of its forms.

It runs light—rgins fast—does not injure the cotton—impoBBible to break the roll—no uso for self-feeders—and no trouble to feed. The commit tee at tbe late Bibb County Agricultural Fair, being so well satisfied of its superiority over anything they ever saw, awarded me the premium. I am now prepared to furnish any one in want of a Gin. A sample of Excelsior and also of the Griswold Gin can be seen at Caihart & Curd’s Hardware Store, Macon, Ga. Send for desepriptive list. O.W.
