Tiiz Philosophy or Tome SrocrLiirra.—Some
substances have the power of influencing the
changes which go forward in the hnman tissues,
without themselves taking any integral part in these
changes. 8alt, for instance, hastens transforma
tion and waste, and conaeqently creates the neces
sity for a more liberal diet; while, on the other
hand, alcohol retards change and waste. On this
principle, Dr. Fiscb, in hie Bitters, has furnished a
preparation having among other properties that of
preserving both the materials and the forces of the
system: and in this, aa in other things, "A penny
saved is a penny gained." But it is not only in this
negative way that Dr. Fisch's remedy works for the
bniidiog up of the physical man. While it holds
back tho wasting processes, it tpora forward the
repairing processes. It promotes the flow of the
alimentative juices in the month, the stomach and
the liver; and thus enables the system to utilize
more food—to make more blood. The scriptural
assertion that "tho blood thereof is the life there
of,” is tho expression of a physiological fact: and
the amount of food which a man can oat with relish,
and digest, affords the exact measure and index of
the man's strength. And when once Dr. Fiach'a
remedy haa given the start to an improvement in
this direction, tbo nnaided energies of nature take
np the work and carry it forward, and thus render
the amelioration permanent.
Should not fail to examine onr new stock of
The Wautiso uas been Heeded.—Since the ex
posure of the attempts made by certain unscrupu
lous local dealers, to palm off their coarse astrin
gents, mado from cheap and impure materials, iu the
place of the great national tonic, Hoetetter'a Stomach
Bitters, public opinion haa set strongly against
tlieee empirics and their preparations. Their occu
pation is gono, or soon will be. When the light is
let into deception it soon wilts down. Tenons who
triflo with tlioir own health, by using unknown pre
parations, willi no guarantee to sustain them, when
an oatabl : sbo<l epociflc, proven by twenty years ex
perience to ho exactly what it is claimed to be, ie
within their reach, are euro to repent tbeir temerity.
Many have done so in this instance, but it ia hoped
that tho truth plainly spoken has arrested the evil.
In the meantime the demand for tho leading pro
tect ivo and reatorativo medicine of America was
nover so great as it haa he on this season. From
the fovor and ague districts or tbfi west, southwest,
and south, it is literally overwhelming, and it mty
bo said of tho advices from all parts of the country
of tho euros it is effecting ierdyspepsia, bilious com
plaints, and chronic constipation, that “tbeir name
ia legion." Everywhere the sick and feefalo seem
to havo realized the importance of “holding fast
to that which is good,” and of avoiding what is spu
rious and dangerous.

Accompanied by several of the editorial frater
nity,we had the pleasure yesterday of visiting the
grounds of the Georgia Agricultural State Fair
which oommences on the 23d inst Mach has been
said and written of tho beanty and natural ad
vantages of the location, bnt we were utterly
unprepared for the magical changes which a few
brief weeks have created under the plastic influ
ence of art, combined with unrivalled skill and
untiring industry.
MATOS butt.
Honor to whom honor is duo is a maxim in
Holy Writ, and sorely onr enterprising and in
defatigable Mayor is entitled to the thanks of
the city, and Agricultural Association, for the
wonderful results which haye been achieved.
Seven commodious and convenient halU for
the exhibition of the varied products of tbe
farm, loom, workshop and studio of the artist,
have been erected, and, with the tasty President’s
office, the editor’s cottage, tbe ladies’ dressing
room, the extensive saloon, dining apartments,
booths, stables, and grand stand for spectators,
form quite an imposing and attractive village.
Hundreds of artisans and mechanics, ate giving
the finishing touches to the whole affair, and
we may safely announce to the unbelieving
croaker, that everything will be in readiness
when the exhibition opens.
BACK TRACK.
Tbo trotting combo is perfectly free from
pebbles, and almost a dead level, with just
sufficient softness to prevent injury to the hoofs
of tbe contesting animals. A finer, we
do not believe, can be found on the face of the
globe.
And here (par parenthese), wo are forced to
deprecate the opposition which a portion of the
religions press has manifested to the Stato Fair
on account of the regatta and races.
Those are not gambling conoerns, but are
intended in the one case to foster a manly and
healthful pastime, which acts as a powerful
auxiliary to our naval and mercantile marine,
and in the other, to encourage the importation
and breeding of blooded stock.
Tho writer, by carefol personal observation,
will testify that not only has no provision been
mado for tho accommodation of the sporting
ring proper, but belling, card-playing, ronletto
and faro banks, and all other gaming parapher
nalia will be rigidly oxcluded from tho grounds.
There ia danger of erring on tho morality side
in the present instance, and the reaction would
be more hurtful than tho grievance complained
of. We do not deaire, however, to bo under
stood to bo the advocate of the turf. Far from
lL Rut we submit that nothing of the kind is
connected with the State Fair. If parlies ven
ture their money, it must be mb rota, and pri
vately. They conid do the same upon the Eng
lish Derby, and throw the dice, or draw straws
upon tho result of any election or event, tho re
sult of which was problematical. The managers
of tho Fair are not responsible for this.
water arrakoements.
A copious supply of this essential Said will
be furnished in a multitude of places, through
the agenoy of pumps of small bore made of cast
iron, which are driven into the earth until a
stream is reached, and the soluble overlying
debris is then ejected, and pure water obtained
in abundant supply. Over 100 of these pumps
will bo sunk in all directions, affording an inex-
baustilble quantity of water, clear as crystal, and
pleasant to the taste.
LIGHTS.
The several halls will be brilliantly illumina
ted at night by tbo popular aparatus of the
American Gas Light Company, under the su
perintendence of Mr. Edward Rowe, who will
famish three hundred burners, generously do
nating the gas that is used.

FRIDAY MORNING, OOT. 13, 1871.
Prof. Czurda has returned to Macon, and
resumes uin-icel instruction at once. See his
anaoncement.
Skating Risk.—Open this morning for ladies
only; this afternoon for ladies and gents; to
night for gents only. The rink will open regu
larly now until the first of Novembor.
Godet, for November, is on bond bright and
early as usual, and may be found at Brown &
Co.’s. It is a flash number and no mistake,
and will be cqnally bought up by the ladies,
who are just now deep in the delightful busi
ness of making np thoir winter wardrobes.
Geobgia Home Insubakce Compakt.—This
company located at Colnmbns, in this State,
must not be confounded with tbe “ Homo In
surance Company, Columbus,” which was set
down in onr telegrams yesterday aa having lost
$ 150,000 by the Chicago fire. The losing com-
pany is located at Colnmbns, Ohio. The
Georgia Homo did not have a single risk in
Chicago, and consequently did not lose a dollar
there.
A Serious Run Away.—Yesterday a dray, to
which was attached a fine pair of black horses,
the properly of Mr. J. A. Hill, took fright near
the Macon and Western Railroad Freight Depot,
ran awny, pitched tho drivor upon the Btreet,
and at last collidod with a train of cars standing
on tho track. Ono of tho horses was instantly
killed, tho other rolled beneath tho cars, bnt
singular to relate, escaped without a scratch.
Tbe driver was nnhnrt. Mr. Hill, wo learn,
valued the horse at $250.
Music Foe the Fair.—Wo hear it vaguely
rumored that the services of tho band of the
Second United States Infantry, which is now
stationed at Huntsville, Alabama, has been ten
dered to the management of tho State Fair. If
this is a fact, wo beg to congratulate them, as
tho band haa the well deserved reputation of
1 >oing the best in the United States. The music
that they will furnish will be alone worth the
price of a season ticket, to listen to, and wonld
readily command that amount, if thoy should
happen to appear in concerts, etc., in any of
our Northern cities.
These will be in ample supply, and experi
enced caterers will provide every delicaoy to
tempt the appetites of the weary spectators,
and minister to their wants. Tbe most costly
wines and other beverages can also bo'served
when called for.
THE SIDE ATTRACTIONS
will be numerous and multiform in character.
Already a large collection of live serpents and
animals, and staffed birds and beasts, are on
exhibition upon tbo premises, and balloon as
censions and other diversions will be of daily
occurrence. The music stand will also be a
place of universal resort, as arrangements have
been perfected which will assure the presence
of one of the most celebrated bands in the
country.
It is needless, however, to enter into any re
cital of the numerous objects of interest, which
will be exhibited to the crowds who will attend
this great Industrial Exposition of the State
Agricultural Association. The lovers of the
fine arts, the agriculturist, horticulturist, ma
chinist, mechanic, and tbe representatives of
every other avocation will bo present.
Ample means cf ingress and egress to the
grounds have been provided by onr street rail
road, and the numerous hacks and carriages
which will be in attendance. Indeed, the pe
destrian can reach tho spot'in ten or fifteen
minntos from the very heart of tho city.
Let ns all unite then in contributing by every
possible means to tho completo success of this
magnificent agricultural exposition, which will
reflect honor alike upon our city and State.

Masonic Temtix.—This building is rapidly
approaching completion, and will shortly be one
of the sights of the city. It is built of pressed
brick, with iron and granite facings, and wiU
be tlirco stories higb, with large and well lighted
basement.
The first floor wiU contain two atom, each
twenty-seven feet three inches wide, by one
hundred and twenty feet deep, and a passage
nine feet wide. The second floor will be a fine
Urge public hall fifty-eight feet wide by eighty-
four feet deep, and two retiring rooms attached.
The third story will be the Grand Lodge room,
of the same dimensions as the pnbUc hall,
and will be provided with three ante-rooms.
There will be two basement rooms, each twen
ty-six by forty feet. Maj. Jere Foss is the su
pervising architect, and J. J. Cornell, the con
tractor.
Local Breveties.—We ore pleased to observe
that tho Street Railroad Company, are extend
ing thoir track np Fonrth street. The cars will
be a great convenience to the housekeepers in
the suburbs.
Major S. Frank Warren, an old Maoonite, and
now chief clerk of that high old place, the
H. I. Kimball Honse, of Atlanta, was in Macon
yesterday.
Onr young and smiling lawyer friend, R. W.
Stubbs, Esq., was the first of the learned gen
tlemen of the Macon Bar to file a paper or pay
a clerk's fee in onr new Court-house.
Two more street cars are expected to arrive
in a day or two, which wo think will abont fill
tbe bill.
A baby feU from a pair of steps, to a house
on Fine street, yesterday, bnt by good fortune
landed in a wash tnb full of dirty and wet cloth
ing, and escaped unhurt. Report says that the
mother went for the 15th amendment who
pretended to take charge of it, in fine stylo.
The splendid new chandelier, a perfect mass
of crystal and gold, that has been placed in the
hall of tho Brown Honse, excites the admiration
of all who behold it.
The physicians in charge of Mr. Plankett,
who had so serious a fall from Floral Hall in the
Fair Grounds, report his case as wearing a more
favorable look than was at first considered pos
sible.
Business Brisk.—On every side wo see tho
evidences of life and thrift in onr flourishing
city. The staple is ooming in freely and wagons
crowd the streets, each leaving its modicum of
change to swell the aggregate of trade. The
lengthened visages of onr merchants begin to
relax as the dawn of a better day appears, end
we trust the frugality and prudence manifested
by onr planters during the current year in the
regnlation of plantation expenses, will liberate
a sufficiency even of the scanty incoming crop,
to make commercial matters easy. We cannot
too strongly enjoin npon CTery fanner to re
deem his obligations to those who have as
sisted him, though it should exhaust his last
bale of cotton. In that event, he can rely npon
continued help until his difficulties are sur
mounted, and moreover, will enjoy a peaceful
conscience and the respect of his fellow men.
Tbe approaching Fair is already quickening the
pulaea of the community, and will lend a pow
erful impetus to the trado of the season.
We say then to onr people, be of good cheer,
and ply your trades and occupations with re
newed industry and determination to succeed.
Macon is growing daily in population and im
portance, and your fortunes will keep pace with
her prosperity.
