Kessler and band have retamed from the Chalybeate Springs, and last night, complimented us with a most charm ing serenade. We welcome these excellent mu sicians back to the city, as we have sorely miss ed them during the long, weary days of sum mer. Select Ball and Suttee.—We have been honored with an invitation to a select supper and ball at the Armory Buildings, on Wednes day evening, 13 th inst, given nnderthe auspi- oes of the Excelsior Social Clnb. The yonng gentlemen have onr thanks, with the wish that the occasion may be one of much pleasure and interest. Woodcock.—On Saturday afternoon las, as a gentleman was strolling through the beautiful grounds of tho Park, ho espied a fine woodcock on tho ground some ten or fifteen steps before him, and, picking up a small rock, he threw it at the bird and killed it. It made a dainty dish for a sick lady friend that night and tho next morning. For delicacy of flavor there is no American bird of game equal to tho woodcock. Captured Cow and Calt.—Officer L. H. Gar field, of the city police, captured a cow and calf yesterday from a oouple of negroes, which, it is believed, they stole from some one in Monroe county. The negroes were endeavoring to sell the cow, but an they told two or three different tales as to how they got possession of her, they were both lodged in jail and the cow and calf are held for the identification of the owner.— Tho cow is rather old, with red and white spots, and has a light red head and neck. Tho owner can get them by proving property and paying charges—this notice included. IRON TIE. 8tnx Onwaed and Upwabd.—The extraordinary >ocreiae th&thaa taken place In the halo of Hoetet- tar'a Stomach Bitters during the past year, is an other proof that an intelligent people, .although they may tiy all thiogs, hold fast only to tiat which ia good. No amount of puffery can lift inferior articles to the position of standard specifics. To °*a tho words of Tom Paine, they may go up like a rocket, but are sure to oome down ignominiously like its extinguished stick. Hundreds of such nos trums have gone up and oome down since the intro duction of Hoetetter's Stomach Bitters, .nearly the fifth of a century ago. Tot it still remains the su preme tonic of the age. It has not, and never has had a rival in efficacy or popularity, and now stands at the head of all proprietary remedies manufac tured on this side of the Atlantic. In every civ- ilized oommnnity on this continent, or in South America, it is tho accepted remedy for dyspepeia, bdJoas complaints, constipation, general debility, netroua weakness, and many other unpleasant or dangerous maladies. A medicine so widely extended ia, of course, pirated and imitated by dealers with out conscience or integrity. Therefore, let every man or woman who designs to purchase tho genuine Hoetetter’s Stomach Bit- tws, see to it that they have what they pay for, and °ot the results of an infamous imposture. Look carefully at label, stamp, and name blown In the #**, and do not forget that the true bitters is •old in bottles only. Makbuos Gcim.—Interesting work, numerous engravings, 224 pages.

The time for weighing cotton is come, and Truman & Green, Triangular block, have just received a large lot of steelyards. The “GreatMonitor” is coming. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL Cotton Receipts.—There were received by the various warehouses in Macon during the last cotton year, 99,440 bales, against 80,129 for the preceedingyear, showing an increase of receipts for the cotton year just closed of 19,- 317 bales. On tho first of September, 1870, there had been received 73 bales of the new crop. On the first instant only 12 bales of the now crop had been received, thus showing the latcnesB of the season, or an indisposition on tho part of planters to rush their cotton to mar ket as they did last year. In this connecUonwe might slate that the new cotton year opens with much more favora ble prospeots for the planter than the old. On the first of September, 1870, nearly every plan ter was heavily indebted to his factor or mer chant, and this market was literally flooded with his warehouse acceptances, or other paper. For- tnnately, however, there was a large crop com ing forward to redeem the paper, and right no bly and promptly was it done, be it said to the planter’s credit. Now, however, the obligations of the planter, as a general thing, are ligWt and he will have no trouble in meeting his bills. It is true ho will enter tho market with a shor, crop, but ho will find better prices for his staple, and provisions, should he need any, at less than one-half of what they were one year ago. Then bacon waa strong at 194 ; now it is dnlj at 9 cents. Then com was worth Si 35(ffi$l 40; now it can bo bought at $1 00 per bushel. Then bagging waa worth 35(®3"4 centa per yard; now it can be bought by the roll at 24 cents. Taking all these things, therefore, into consideration, ha most, or anght to fool, that ho has made a long stride forward during the cotton year which closed on the 31st ult., notwithstanding tho fact that at the close of his year's labor, he finds a short crop on hand. The difference in tho price ho will receive for it, and the enor mous difference in the pricer of provisions, eto., will net him more clear cash, than if he had made a crop of 5,000,000 instead of 3,000,000 bales. Baldwin Superior Counr.—Tho case of the State vs. John T. Snead, charged with Bigamy, was called up on Friday morning. An impor tant witness for ihe prosecution, Mr. Hewitt, of the Globe Hotel, in Augusta, did not appear. The counsel for the State were, therefore, forced to the oleotion of going to trial with the btbefit of tho testimony of Charles D. Cowles, (the materiality of which hereafter appears,) and without the testimony of Hewitt, or to adjourn the case to the 1st Monday in November, when the testimony of Hewitt might be had, and that of Cowles wanting. Tho trial proceeded. It was proven by Cowles that, in the city of New York, in May, 18G8, the defendant introduced to several gentlemen a lady as his wife; and that she habitually called at his office, after the business of the day was over, and was escorted by him out of the office and through the streets of the city. It was further proven that, in January, 1869, tho defendant addressed a letter from Boston to “Mrs. John T. Snead, Brook lyn, N. Y.,’’ signing tho Bame as “Your affec tionate "Hubby.” It was also proven that the letter waa in the hand-writing of the defendant, and was received by another witness in New York daring the past summer from Mrs. Snead, who was in court, and identified as the lady whom tho defendant had introduced as his wife, and also as the lady from -whom the letter in question was received. Mr. Cowles farther testified that, in Novem ber last, in the city of Macon, he met with the defendant, whom ha had not seen for several months, and inquired of him “how and where is Mis. Snead now?” Snead replied “sheis very well, and is still in New York. I will see her in few days, for I leave to-morrow.” During the month of April last, and soon after the marriage of Snead to the lady in MilledgeviUe, the defendant met the witness, Cowles, upon the street in Maoon. In the course of their in terview Snead said: “Charlie, I have the nioest young wife in Georgia.” They soon parted, and the witness testified that the an nouncement astonished him. Upon meeting him a few days afterwards, Mr. Cowles asked him what he meant about having a young wife ? The defendant answered that he had reoently married a young lady in Georgia. Cowles re plied, “what has become of the wife you intro duced me to in New York; i3 she dead? Snead, much agitated, replied; “We don't do things in New York like you do in Georgia.” An exemplification from the records of Bedford county, Ya., was next introduoed. It appeared that in May, 18G1, application was made to the proper anthority for license for the marriage of John T. Snead to Mrs. Annie H. Robbins—the names of the parents of the respective parties, their residence, condition, etc., being stated. With this evidence the State dosed. Tho de f endant introduced no testimony. The charge of the court was unexceptionable to the gentlemen representing the State. About one o’clock p. x., Saturday, the jury retired, and in a few minutes, brought in a verdict of "Jiot Guilty." The result startled the whole oommnnity, as well as the court and the coun- IHitly Review or tbe Market. OFFICE TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER,?
