It is no longer considered wiee to pnt a patient to the tor- tore in order to core him of a disease in which pain is already undermining tbe energise of bis system. True science ranges itself on tbe aide of nature, and endeavors to assist her in her fight against dis ease. This ie the province of Hoe tetter's Stomach Bitters, tbe most spproved tonic aver advertised in this country. It may be recommended aa a fall medicine, par excellence: for it is in tbe fall that biliousness, dyspepsia and malarious fevers are es pecially prevalent. Tbe frime, exhausted by the beau of sommer, is relaxed and feeble at iU dote, and require*, we may say demands artificial assist, anee. Afford it that assistance in occasional dotes °f Hostetler's Stomach Bitten, and tbe evils re ferred to may be escaped. Throughout tbe far West, and on tbe steaming alluvial of tbo Southern river*, all tbe Varieties of periodical fever are prob ably nfe to-day. Had a course of Hostetler * Bit tern been commenced by the sufferer* a month ago, 4. before tbe unhealthy season set in, seven- eighths cf them would, in all probability, be in tbeir usual health at the preeent time. So much for want of forecaste. Bo much for not keeping in tbe house, and using daily, the beat safeguard against epidemic and endemic fever*.

BBADnxLD—Dear Sir: From one of my friend* I have learned toot address, and from him have received a few bottlea of your celebrated Fe male Regulator,and iU excellent properties for cur ing certain diseases of tbe fair sex have been com- munieated to me. I have bad an opportunity of riling your medicine in my own family with the meet satisfactory an treat, and I hasten to express to yon my wannest thanks for the happy effect produced by your medicine. Not only in my own family, but also in other families this side the At lantic, have the same happy results been effected, until now the last bottle has been rued np, and I <an no longer supply those who have made de mands for the medicine. I wish very much to procure a new supply, and therefore address yon to respectfully ask of you whether yon have an agency for your medicine on this continent, and if net, to send me a few dozen bottles per North Ger man Lloyd steamer. For tbe amount yon may draw on me through Messrs. G. Heeke ft Go., Bankers in Bremen, or If yon prefer it, I will send yon tb* amount of tbe biff in advance. Awaiting your reply, I am yarns respectfully, **P* lo G. V. FnaxxzxBcxo. straight through Second street to the Clinton road beyond the river, ia a distance of about three miles, one third of which, from tbo river bank to the foot of Troup HiU, is almost a deed level, and will require no grading. From the foot of tbe hill to tbe dty line, the point et which the county stopped work, is a distance of only about 400 yards, and when this short space is graded, we have two-thirds of the splen did thronghfare completed, or that portion of it between the Houston road and the river. As we stated yesterday, this much of the work is indispensable, and the City Council, it is earn estly hoped, will, at it next meeting, order the grading of the 400 yards of tbe street above al- loded to. It will cost but very little to grade this much of the road, and we are sure cur citi zens will cheerfully endorse any action the Council may take, with a view to having it done immediately. Aa to the bridging of tbe river, and extending the street on the north to the Clinton road, we fear that we shall feel age creeping npon ns before we see it; bnt it will be dono at some distant day, aa snre as gun is iron. And then we shall aee beautiful family residences for onr merchants and citizens gen erally, rising as if by magic, npon the many eli gible and handsome building sites on the ridge, just beyond the river. Hail, the suspicions day! Ten Thousand Jessamine at the Brown House Cigar Store sepIS^ltawtf BY ill H , T.H , f2.T? A "PTT self, with delegates from Oneida county, were -I- '1-1 IJ.rivTXuaAA XI. admitted. Tbe committee reported in favor of admitting both delegations from New York. Each are entitled to cast a half vote. The mi nority report favored the admission of tho Horace Greeley delegates. It was received with nine cheers. Cheers followed those for Grant, Conkling and Fenton, and at 9:30 the disorder continued. Texas cotton have been forwarded from Galves ton to the fairs at St. Louis and Cincinnati; five bales forwarded through Alford & Veal, factors, represent San Jancinto, Colorado, Rob erts, Gonzdos and Kaufman counties. Thirty miles of the great Northern railroad have been completed and is accepted by the State engineer. It is pronounced in splendid condi tion. The company will put on passenger trains at once.

There were six heats, Dan Crow winning the 3d, 4th and 6th. Galveston, September 27.—Nine bales of FIXAVCIAL AID COMMERCIAL. Wesletan Female College.—Young ladies in the oily who propose to enter the Wesleyan Female College will see, by referring to tbe ad vertisement of tbat institution, that to-day is tbe time appointed for tbeir examination. Bold Tnzn.—A negro entered the tailoring establishment of Mr. Warnke, on Mulberry street yesterday, and while that gentleman's at tention was engaged elsewhere in the room, the thief “lifted" a bolt of fine cassimere and got off with it. The Cotton Receipts at this point yesterday were the heaviest for any one day of the season. Bhonld the present clear and favorable weather for cotton picking oonlinne a few days longer, the fleecy etaple will come forward rapidly for awhile. It is needed bsdly to relieve the tight- iss in the money market. Bio Luck.—We were informed yesterday by a gentleman just arrived from Angnsta,that Mr. Jno. Kenney, merenant tailor of that city, had drawn a $50,000 gold prize in the Royal Ha vana Lottery. Wo congratulate Kenney and hope he will now show the world that he knows how to handle gold as well as he bandied his ‘goose.” The “Flocb” or the Flock.—Of the multi tude of brands of fine flonr now in onr market, none have gained sneh universal popularity in so short a time as tho Hazon. It was only a few months ago that Messrs. Small ft Gamble introduced this flonr to the trade of Macon, and now no prudent housewife will attempt to get np anything nice in tho culinary department without a supply of tbe Htzor. Messrs. S. ft G. have completed arrangements whereby they can supply tbe trade with any quantity at low figures. Kimball House.—It was rumored here on the streets yesterday morning tbat the Kimball House, in Atlanta, had been closed. Upon in quiry, in tbe afternoon, of a gentleman jnst down from Atlanta, we learned tbat there was not one word of truth in tho report and no grounds for it. Ho stated also tbat Mr. H. I. Kimball bad succeeded in negotiating all bis State bonds in Liverpool, and would return within tho next week or ten days. Tbs writer is one of those who will not believe that Kim ball has “busted” until the proof of it is pro duced. The accidents from kerosene or coal oil can all be traoed to using a bad qnality of oil. It may not be generally known, bnt there is a State and United States law imposing a heavy penalty on any person who sells this oil which does not stand a fire test of 110 degrees. There is no excuse for anybody in Middle or Southwestern Georgia getting nnsofo oil, as Messrs. Hunt, Rankin ft Lamar, tbe wholsale druggists, deal extensively in the very best quality, and furnish it to dealers at jnst what it coats to bring it here- From 75 to 100 barrels are sold by this estab lishment every month, and consumers may rely on getting perfectly safe oil from them, or from one of the numerous dealers supplied by them. Attempted Suicide. — Yesterday afternoon abont 5 o'clock, a middle aged man named J. 0. McCormick entered Dr. Wright’s drug store on Fourth street, and in a cool, business-like way called for a three oz. vial of landannm. It handed to him by Mr. Danforth, the druggist. McCormick then remarked tbat he wanted it weighed, and after drawing the stopper of the vial, he picked np a glass graduate silting on ths counter and poured the oouteuts of the vial into it. Having done this, he approached a pair of scales sitting on thejoounter, ostensibly to weigh the drug, bnt so soon as he got the noale* between himself and^Mr. Danforth, who was on the inside of the counter, he placed the graduate to his lipa and began to drink the deadly poison. Mr. Danforth, noticing this movement, quickly reached across the counter and knocked the graduate out of McCormick's band, bnt not before he had swallowed about two ounces of the laudanum. The man was immediately taken to the office of tho city phy sician, Dr. Holmes, and was given copious draughts of warm water and sulphate of zinc, which soon produced vomiting. The patient was also kept npon his feet and walked about the yard, to prevent his going to sleep, and at this writing (7, r. ie.,) hopes are entertained that he will reoover. No cause was assigned by Mr. C. for the rash act, other than that he was “onoe a gentleman and had money, bnt that now he was penniles and worthless.” : Weekly Review of tbe Market.

But it is easily accounted for. The weather has been very indement for nearly a month and the cotton market, has, as yet, barely opened. There is, nevertheless, a feeling of confidence in commercial circles, and prices of leading articles in dry goods, groceries and provisions role firm.

Should the rosd, now finished to tbe corporation lino, be brought on to the head of Second street, (and the faith of the city is pledged to the work,) it wiU strike the level of the street which extends through the heart of the city and directly by the Conrt-honse to the river bank. Then we shall have from the Hous ton road to the river a beautiful street, two miles in length. Suppose, then, that we bridge the river at the foot of Second street, and ex tend it on the other aide to the Clinton rosd, would it not be one of the most magnificent thoroughfares in the South? Would it not be vastly advantageous to our Second and Third street merchants and business men, and to the whole city at large, to say nothing of the great convenience it would be to our friends and neighbors in Houston and Jones counties, when bringing their produce to market?

XL 5 Thebarometer has fallen decidedly at theRocky Mountain stations. The high pressure north of Missouri has extended its influence southeast to the Gulf. The pressure continues quite low in Florida, where doads and light rains continue. The low barometer in New England has appa rently extended eastward, and a second area of low pressure with brisk westerly winds is re ported from Lake Ontario. This latter has prob ably come from Lake Superior, with which re gion telegraphio communication has been in terrupted for a week. Fresh northwesterly winds are reported from the Lakes and north erly winds in the Gulf States, except Southern Florida. Partially cloudy and clear weather has very generally prevailed to^ay. Probabilities: A rising of the barometer, with pleasant weather, ia probable for Thurs day for tbe Southern and Golf States. A falling of the barometer with cloudy weather in the northwest. The storm on Lake Ontario will probably move eastward, and extend to Maine during the day. Squint-Eyed Ben Shelved. Wobcesteb, September 27,10 p. xl—Bntleris defeated on the test vote.
