The reoeot ease of poisoning in the lower
aeottoo of tbe city baa created considerable in
terest In this community, especially «nong
man vcreed in medical ncienoe and the theory
and practice of medicine. That the complete
restoration of the patient after having taken one
grain of strychnine—one of the moat subtle and
powerful vegetable poisons known—waa owing
to the skill, prompt action, and very valuable
remedy employed by the attending physician,
no candid or unbiased mind will deDy. Annexed
isjtbe patient's own statement, which will be
read with interest:
Ilaanmnran, November 2-, 1871
"Tbe f i|M *h.* led me to commit the rash
net of which I am abont to give an account can
be of no particular internet, and omitting all
allusions to motives, and making no attempt at
axeam, I will simply state tbe circumstances of
rha oaae, whioh I think may be of interest to
those engaged in tbe advancement of medical
sciance. I am induced to do this at the request
of my friend and physician. Dr. E. H. Coovar,
with the asaorance that tbo oaae ia a remarka
ble one, likely to attract the attention of tbe
medical profession everywhere.
“On tbe morningof November 20, 1871, at
about 11 o'clock, I swallowed nearly, if not qnite,
one grain of strychnine, which had been in my
pomcesion since tbe 6tb instant. I was sitting
on tbe side of tbe bed in the aooond-story back
room, in which apartment I have slept since I
have occupied the bouse. I took tbe powder,
dry. from tbe paper, and held it in my mouth
until it bad beoomemoiatenod with spittle,when
I swallowed it; walked to tbe table and drank a
glass of water, went info the room over the
kilebea, and hid the paper in which the poiaon
bad keen, and then went down stein, where I
took a neat in a rocking chair fa front of tbe
atova. In tbe course of live minutes I began to
feel alight cr an pain the calves of my logs. My
wife was sitting by tbe table, sewing, and I
asked her for a couple of crackers, which she
gave me. The oraiupe had by this time in
creased in intensity, and extended to the feet
and thighs, causing the most intense pain. I
asked if there was an egg abont the house, and
being answered in the afllmalive, told my wife
to broak it and give it to me raw. She then
suspected that I had taken nomethiag, and be
gan questioning mo eloaely abont it
“I expected soon to be in eternity, and thought
that no human power could avail to save my
life, so I told her what I had done. She imme
diately raised an alarm, and Mr. John lloyer
came in, followed by several other neighbors.
The egg was'given me, besides a large quantity
of warm salt water and strong tea, and a mes
ganger waa sent for Dr. Coover.
“Abont the time I called for tbe egg I at
tempted to rise from the chair, bnt fell to tbe
floor with convulsions in the lower extremities,
which became violent on the lcaat attempt to
move, and the feet were drawn in towards eseh
other, beoomiog stiff and immovable save aa tbe
occasional convulsions shook them, I'nsuoces*-
fol attempts were made to bathe them in hot
water, each effort to raise me bringing on a vio
lent paroxysm, in the last one of which 1 tbongbl
my jaws bad become unhinged. I was now per.
fealty paralysed from tbe hips down, and snf
feting tbe moat excruciating pains, which be
gan to extend upward— the muscles of tbe sbonl
den and neck soon being considerably convnls
ed, the fore arms still being free from pain.
“I now bade my wife “good bye.” and pre
I sired for tbe final straggle, which I knew mnat
be near at band, as I had become rigid from the
stfk (loirs, save the forearm. The convulsions
of the muscles were beoomiap fearful, and the
torture awful to endure. And now oamc on a
tremendous oouvulaion. My hands were drawn
to to my aides, with the fingers drawn apart,
and slightly bowed, and the jaws became rigid.
I felt myself raised aa if by aome mighty power,
immovably, with only my feet and head touch
ing anything. I heard some one say, “It ia all
over with him!” and felt something like a black

p*U settling down upon my lirsin, when I be
came nneonsdons of everything except my own
agony, which was now beyond all description.
I could (sal my heart fluttering like a wounded
bird, and my brain beating and throbbing with
an irregular motion, aa though at every beat it
would burst from its confinement Every joint
was locked, and every drop of blood seemed
stanated. I remember thinking it eonld not
be long thus, when I mnat have lost eonacious-
“I remember nothing more nntil I felt a sen
sation of relief, aa thoogh the garments of
death, which had been drawn over, were now
being drawn back. Those terrible cramps
seemed to be descending towards my lower
limbs. A sweet feeling of relief stole over me,
and I began to be again conscious. Taming
my haed—of whioh I now bad command—I saw
Dr. Ooover kneeling at my side, pouring medi
cine into my month from a apoon, and spoke
to him, remarking: “Mere is the man that can
aare me,” or words to that effect
“I waa now free from cramps aa far as the
hips, and waa folly conscious of all that waa go
ing on. I could feel the cramps receding before
the antidote, and leaving the limbs free from
pain until after the aeeood dose waa adminis
tered by the doctor. From that time I resumed
coorokmauesa, when I waa entirely free from
crump, with the exception of a little in the feet
I was then moved into an adjoining room and
plaoed upon a pallet feeling comparatively
comfortable. I had but one attack of cramps
afterwards, which waa immediately relieved by
e does administered by my wife—the doctor
having left for a abort time—and when be re
turned I felt that the poiaon waa completely
centralised.
“I have since felt no return of cramps or
oonvulsiona, have had a good appetite, and
eonld be out of bed were it not for the soreness
of the muscles, caused by the intense pain to
which they were subjected"

For nearly half a century the Georgia Telegraph and the Gror.c-
Jocrnal and ilESSENGER, either separately or united, liave heen the
great organs of general intelligence to this and the contiguous section
of Georgia and Alabama. In all the varied social, civil and politico]
experience of this region during that extended and momentous period
in its history, these old Journals have been the constant and familjq r
visitors of thousands of households in this vast area of countrv c U( ]
have numbered their readers and patrons by successive generation; H
In the whole scope of this great Agricultural section of two of the
most important Cotton States, the fortunes of these journals have varied
simply with the varying fortunes of . the people, and to-day their c : r
culation and hold upon the public confidence and estimation have never
been exceeded at any period in their long history. Indeed, a? (] le
demands upon newspapers became yearly more exacting—t] vc c .\-p ou
ses of publication increase and concentration of capital and labor b 0
come more indispensable, so, we arc glad to say, our circulation and
influence increase with equal steps. The former have multiplied more
than tenfold in the last twenty ycai's, and the circulation and busing
of the Telegraph and Messenger have increased in the same propor
tion. We rejoice to believe that in no section of the United States is
there a i*)wspapcr possessing a more complete occupation of its pecu
liar field of circulation than do the various editions of the Tei,ec,r\ph
and Messenger, within that whole region of country to which it can
carry the earliest intelligence. Its circulation in gross we suppose to
be not exceeded by that of any newspaper in the Carolina*, Georgia,
Alabama and Mississippi, with perhaps a single exception, hut its cir
culation in its appropriate and particular field, is without an approxi
mating rival.
These are the circumstances and this the condition which make the
Telegraph and Messenger such a remarkably good Advertising Me
dium. There is scarcely a family or individual doing business with
Macon, within a radius of two or three hundred miles around the eitv,
who does not read the paper, so that an advertisement in its columns
reaches all eyes. The Macon merchant can scarcely add a greater
publicity to his business, among people who can trade with him, after
he has advertised in this paper. The Northern or Western merchant
or manufacturer can rely on the fact that by advertising in this paper
he will address the whole mercantile, professional and agricultural
population of this large area, and need go no further for that purpose.
We are frequently in receipt of testimonials from advertisers of all
classes as to the peculiar value of this newspaper as an advertising
medium.
And we are ready to place these advantages at the disposal of the
public on the most reasonable terms compatible with our expenses ami
circulation. Our policy is to encourage advertising by moderate
charges; but it must be obvious to every man of common sense that
we cannot multiply copies of advertisements by thousands, for the
same price that others can furnish them by scores and hundreds. This
point is better understood in the great commercial centres where ad
vertising is valued and paid for precisely according to the scale of cir
culation—where one paper will be cheerfully paid three dollars a line
and another five cents a line for the same advertisement, according to
their measure of circulation. The first furnishes paper, press-work
and circulation for a hundred thousand impressions, and the latter
perhaps for a few hundreds. The contracts have all the difference
which exists between a pound and hogshead of sugar ; but both, it
may be, print and circulate a merchant’s address to the public for less
than half what a corresponding number of circulars or handbills would
cost, which could have no other circulation than they might obtain
from a range of limited personal acquaintances and mere fugacious
personal efforts. There can be no cheaper or better method of ad
vertising than through the columns of a popular, widely circulated
newspaper, which by long liabit.and association has become the daily
source of information to all within the scope of country which fur
nishes the trade of its commercial centre. All other expedients to
communicate with the people are comparatively inefficient and value
less. We place the Telegraph and Messenger before the public, as
a certain, popular, and unrivalled medium of advertising communica
tion with all that part of Georgia and Alabama which looks to Macon
for its market or for the earliest news.

In this connection we call attention to the propositions af ihe b* a 1
of the first column in this edition.
November 21, 1871.
Is an immense sheet, 38x52 inches in size and containing fifty-six col
umns. It is designed to contain a full and connected history of (lie
week, and although its great size is complained of by some, yet wc
find the whole space essential to the grand design of the paper. A
family in possession of this paper need be ignorant of no important
event in the world’s current history, or miss any important
idea or discovery of the times. In State news it covers the whole
ground and gives all current events of importance in every county
of Georgia. It also furnishes an invaluable original summary of foreign
news—and gives the latest market advices from every commercial
point. This paper is a universal favorite of the Georgians who have
emigrated to Texas and other distant points, and in this way its cir
culation is coextensive with the United States and is, in fact, scattered
over foreign countries,
We feel that so invaluable a paper, large as its circulation is, has
never yet attained the full measure of its deserts, Will not its readers
everywhere interest themselves in extending the sphere of its useful-
With tbe approaching yea* - we enter upon the canvass for the m
Presidency—an event fraught with momentous results to the South,
and which cannot fail to awaken absorbing interest among the people’-
The progress and conclusion of this grand event, wiH be chronicled
with par dcular care by the Telegraph and Messenger, and all the
questions and facts which affect its result will receive very caretui at
tention. j We hope all our readers and patrons, old and new, will assist
us in increasing the circulation and usefulness of all our editions.
