Look 8hasp.—A bill haa been introduced into
the Legislature “authorizing the City Council
of LaGrange to issue $25,000 in bonds, as a
subscription to the North and South Railroad!”
Wo advise our LaGrange friends to “look
sharp,” or Kimball will come back and get
charge of tbe road. It was thought impossible
few months ago to build a road in Georgia
unless H. L was at the head of it; and well do
we remember when the people in some of tbe
towns in Southwest Georgia, “to do him honor
took delight,” inviting him to speak to their
Sunday schools, and killing, upon bis arrival,
tbe “fatted calf.” Alas, how the mighty have
fallen! ______
Kitheb Biixiooer.—Macon, we fear, will lose
her good name for keeping the peace if things
oontinue as they are now, very long. Not less
than half a dozen shooting and cutting affray*
have occurred within a week. There was a con
siderable skirmish In a store on Cherry street
night before last, and on Monday night a white
man was badly cut by a negro. Even the boys
are up before the Mayor's oonrt for pistol firing
upon the streets. While the grand jnry are in
session it would be well for them to look closely
after parties in the habit of carrying ooncealed
weapons. The trouble generally about getting
true bills against parties guilty of a violation of
this particular law is the fact that at least one-
hall of the jurors commit the same offense.
Cotton Rzanrrs.—For five days past the
cotton receipts in Macon have been falling abort
upon an average of near 200 bales per day. The
defiicit for the week ending this evening ss com-
pared with last week ia 474. Tbe same reports
reach ns from all the towns in the lower coun
ties. Speculators are trying to account for it
by the unfavorable weather, bnt that is all non
sense. The only way to account for it properly
is by acknowledging the truth. The bulk of the
crop has been gathered, carried to market and
sold. There is no top crop, and from our own
individual knowledge we assert that fonr fifths
of the crop in the greater portion of Southwest
Georgia has been gathered and disposed of.
The reoeipts in Macon to the 15th day of No
vember, 1870, were 42,107 bales. The receipts
tbia year to to-day are 25,303, showing a differ
ence cf 16,804. Daring the months of Novem
ber and December of last year the receipts con-
tinned to increase, while from this time forward
they moat necessarily decrease. Nor will this
be the ease in Macon alone. The entire State,
and in fact the entire Sontb, will continue to
fall abort, and the doung of the season will
show a difference of not less thsn a million
bales between the last and the present yean.
Eason.—A type setter made us responsible
In yesterday's issue for a pretty heivy “fling” at
the citizens of Macon. In our little item in re
gard to Captain Brain’s lecture, we were
made to exclaim: “What a nice community 1”
when we meant to say no such thing. The word
written was commentary and not community.
Our intention was to hint at the degeneraoy of
tbe times. A burlesque opera tronpe com
manding large andienoes, while a poor, lame
Confederate soldier narrating a aeries of facts,
and describing scenes and deeds of daring, in
which every Southern man should feel a deep
interest, is indeed a sad, sad commentary upon
the times. Such is not the case with Macon
alone, but it ia generally so throughout the
United States. YVe boast of the advancement
of the age; of onr progress in literature, the
arts and aoieneea; but looking at it from a
common sense stand point we must confess thst
it is not diacernable among tha masses. We
are rapidly passing from the sublime to the ri
diculous. Light literature in the shape of ten
cent novels flood the country, and to be inter-
eating, tbe newspaper must descend from the
lofty eminence of dignified, purs and chaste
language, to common place slang. Is not this
true? Are not those columns of onr daily
papers which are most filled with jokes and hu
morous, meaningless nonsense, the first read
and the moet highly appreciated? The age
seems to manifest a decided preference for the
ridiculous, and we fear that, instead of ascend
ing the hill of civilization, refinement and cul
ture, we are descending. Statesmen have left
our legislative halls, and ia their stead are seen
the driveling politician, the gambler, the biga
mist and the thief. Our Chief Executives, both
Federal .and State, are no longer the good, tho
true, and the great, but drunken horse jockeys
and treasury plunderers now don the onoe hon
ored Executive robes. Bnt we did not intend
to write so much as we hsve already written.
Our intention was simply to correct the mistake
and set ourselves right before the citizens of
Macon. We look upon our community as be
ing as far advanced in civilization and refine
ment os any of the day.

Noble Iranxuno**.—Macon boasts two of
th* beat colleges in the State, an asylum for the
blind, the finest fair grounds and park in
America, and the grocery store of W. P. Carlo*.
They are all important in their spheres, but a
hungry man isn't in mnch humor to enjoy col
lege* or fair ground, and this one fact makes a
grocery store stand first in the scale of neoeesity,
at least. Carlo* keeps everything that is good
to eat, sells it cheap, and delivers every article
in any portion of tho city, if wo requested.

The StAsnss or Neglect.—It is not too much
to say that tens of thousands are cow suffering
from biliousness, indigestion, constipation, periodi
cal fevers, general debility, and nervous affections,
who might be restored to perfect health within a
month or less by the use of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. The mnltitndes who have been cured of
these and other ailments by the use of this well
known specific are always ready to testify to its
virtue as a preventive and a remedy. They are
•pread oyer the whole country; they are eager to
praise and recommend it: and yet, notwithstanding
its vast popularity, there are many invalids, and
many who are continually exposed to tha epidemi
cal diseases, against which it is a sure protection,
who, either through indifference or incredulity, ne
glect to seize the opportunity to cure and means of
prevention, which they have only to reach out their
band* to obtain. This is strange; it ia oneof the
anomalies of human nature which it ia impossible
to account for or explain. It ia however, quite
certain that every day the number of these Martyrs
of Neglect fa diminishing. This fa proved by the
atatiatic* of the sales of the great remedy. Daring
the present fall the demand for it has increased be
yond all precedent, and it eeems aa if in the end the
entire community would realize the important fact,
that when all other medianee prescribed for the
above complaints fail, it can and does effect a care.
As a protection against the diseases most common
at this reason, there fa nothing comparable with it

The Hunan Boot, its Waste and Retain—The
body to undergoing continual waste, both in the
voluntary processes of labor and action generally
(mental aa well as physical), and alto in the invol
untary ptooeases (respiration for example ) This
waete’ must be repaired by the blood, as it continu
ally circulates and cornea into contact with the va
rious portions of the eyetem; and the losses of tho
blood must be supplied from food. Aa the mate
rial of the body fa derived from tbe substance of
the food, eo all vital power fa derived from force
sided up in the food. Food fa organic matter in
a stato cf molecular tension; and when, in diges
tion, it becomes decomposed, this fention fa given
out In tbe form of physical force*, such as muscu
lar power, animal beat, and the like. Every
thought that we think, every breath that we draw,
every slightest motion or gesture that we make,
wears away the organized tissues to some extent.
In a healthy coedition this waste produce# a propor
tionate degree of appetite and of digestive vigor.
But in imperfect health it ia not so. Either the ap
petite is deficient, or the forces of the digestive or
gans are not adequate to convert into nutritious
blood that amount of food which tho oppetite
craves- Now Dr. Fisch’s Bitten ia a tonic and
stimulant adapted by its ingredients to create an
agreeable appetite, and also in like degree to stim
ulate the digestive powers. When this much is
accomplished, and the eyetem once put in the way
of appropriating nourishment for itself, we mav
look upon the core as already effected. Time and
careful living will do the teat.
Sudden changes in the weather are productive of
Throat Diseases, Coughs and Colds. There fa no
more effectual relief to be found,than in the use ol
Brown’s Branchial Troches.”

“We eat to live,” eays a distinguished writer on
the laws of health; and if wo eat wieely of what
good things God has given us to enjoy in a proper
way, we shall live well, live health/nlly, and live
long. We mnet adapt our food to our occupations
and temperamen's. For instance, ministers of the
gospel, lawyers, doctors and editors, do not require
pork and beans, or bacon and greens twice a day,
as does the man who splits nils or cute cord-wood.
Fortunately, the great Creator has wisely implanted
within ns a eelf-actinginstinct, to which, if wo will
but defer, we shall rarely eat that which will not as-
eimlata in the etemach, and make fresh, vigorous
blood, with which to nourish our bodies and pro
long onr days.
Take one wine glass full of Plantation Bitters,
once or twice a day, and obey this self-acting in
stinct, and a fall tcore of years will be added to
your life.

odor this liquor is without fault It Is entirely ftee
from any deleterious substance whatever; tho ab
sence of all trace of lead, aod of other poisonous
or hurtful things in it is absolute. By distillation,
I find its alcoholic strength to be exactly that of

nounce it to be tree from adulteration, and aa such
I can recommend its use to the public. I have ex
amined it for copper, lead, the alkaloids, and other
poisonous substances, bnt am happy to fay I have
lonni none of them. The inspected Whisky con

Prof. JOHN DABBY, Editor of tho American Gro
cer, New York, says:
We have received a sample of the “Century
Whisky” for analysis. We have conducted the
analysis with great care; there fa no trace of metal
in it, and nothing that should not come from the
fermentation and dietillation of the finest grains.
Tho bouquet fa natural, depending upon a minujp
quantity at volatile oil or ether. Wo have analyzed
many Whin kies, and have never before met with one
as strong us this; they are generally several de
grees below tho government standard, this fa
slightly above. We are not a connofaeur in liqnors,
bnt if purity and strength are desirable qualities
the ‘ Century Whiskies” must stand pre-eminent.
Dr. J. M. CABNOCHAN, Health Officer of the Port
of New York, eays:
I have tried the "Century” Whiskies and find
them to be of very superior quality. I am happy to
recommend them, as I believe them to be entirely

Prof. TILDEN, of Washington, D. G., eays:
I have analyzed the specimens of the "Century 1
Whisky sent to mo with request to that effoct. I
find no Yu sol Oil and no trace of any deleterious
mineral or metallic Bnbatanco. The liquor presents
no feature which docs not belong to tbe beet
Whiskies, while it offers some nnnenal points of
excellence. Its color fa dark, owing to tho presence
of Caramel, which undoubtedly improves its tone;
the taste is smooth and the bead good. The re
markable strength of this Whisky, coupled with the
uumi-takablo marks of age which are to be per
ceived, its freedom from harmful principles too of
ten found in snch liquors, and its natural bouquet,
justify mo in pronouncing it both for medicinal and
domestic purpose* a superior article.

from several hundred testimonials in regard to the
