Riorum- Diet.—For the upbuilding of imper
fect health, a regulated diet ie often bad reoonne
to. Dot thie isopen to thoobjection, that even un
der the most ekilfnl handling, there may bo artidea
of food preacribed which—at leaat in some dream*
■trace* and to aomo constitution*—may prove the
revano of bemofidal. The nee of a tonic stimulant,
(each a* Dr. Gottlieb Fiacb'a Bittern,) obviates IM*
drawback; because it it one of the properties of a
true tome stimulant to urge on the excretory func
tion., and thus to enable the system, with the
greater ease and prompUtnde, to throw off any
thing which, through peculiarity of coneUtntlon,
may hare proved in j urioua. Such, in its workings,
U Dr. Gottlieb Fiach’s Bitten; so that while it hie
tbe positive merit of strengthening the digestive
f unctions and the appetite, and thus increasing the
nervous and moacnlar forces of tba system gen
erally, it baa also the negative merit, that it cannot
possibly do barm!
Tbia subject continued next week under “ Food

Shocks to the Ststkx—Tbe tint shook o
winter tells tremendously npon enfeebled system*.
Every one knows that in passing from a warm re
gion to scold one, or vice vena, the body requires
aa a protection against epidemics, an acclimating
medicine. All travellers and voyagers admit this.
It la equally necessary to acclimate the system in
passing tbe oonfinea of one season and entering
npon another. Antnmn is gone and winter is here.
Prepare tbe fr.mo and tbe oooetitntion to meet the
cliange by a course of Hostetler's Stomach Bitten.
Tula inestimable vegetable tonic increases the
staminal strength of tboso who taka it, and renders
them proof to a groat extent against tbo devitaliz
ing power of cold and damp.- These two agents
are as prolific of disease as tropical beat, and ani
mal vigor-such vigor aa this bealtlif ul and pare tonic
diffuses through tbe whole organization—is a re
pellent which they cannot matter. A largo propor
tion of the colds, catarrhs, and pulmonary com
plaints which prevail in winter, might be avoided,
by strengthening and regulating the system in ad
vance with this invigorant and alterative. Not that
it la recommended as a specific for those oompUinU*
bat as a preventive of their canae*. On the other
band, it ie not only a preventive of, bat a specific
for the indigestion, intestinal irregularities, mala
rious fevers, bilious attacks, and nervous affection,
superinduced by a chilly and damp atmoabere.
Goon Health ran Lotto Line.—There la noth
ing mure worthy of careful consideration than a
general knowledge of the plainest and moat com
mon-sense laws of medicine and health. Upon this
understanding and observation depends oar health,
atrength, and longevity. We do not propose to
make doctors of everybody; but wo would have all
anificienUy well posted aa to bo able to protect
themselves against the impositions of bigoted
quacks and misguided fools and knave* who prey
npon the fears of the nothinking masse*, only to
plunge them into a rain from which nanght but
death will reloase them.
Onr theory is, progress in medicine, as in every
thing else. The medical bigot, who is aa wise aa an
owl, opposes all innovations or reformations—no
advancement for him. He want* to stand where
adenoo stood two thousand years ago. He believes
in blood-letting, puking, and purging, aa tbe only
remedy for all afilietions. We bolieve a warm
stomach will regulate itself; Plantation Bitter* aide
the stomach in generating a natural warmth,
which at once sots in motion tbo machinery of
digestion, and expels dyspepsia with it. horrid
nightmare.
Is tt a Wonder, in view of tbe immense amonn
of adulterated baking powders in use, that people
have dyspepsia? To escape ancli evils rue Dr.
rrice'a Cream Raking Towdor, which time baa
proved pnro rad healthy.
Baowa's Baoscnuu. TaocnEs, for Pulmonary
and Asthmatic Disorder*, have proved their efficacy
by a teat of many years, and have received testi
monials from eminent men who have used them.
Loss or Vrraurv.—There la not a ease where
there is a loss of vitality in which Dr. rrice'a Blood
Enriobar will not prove benoficiai. Cases given up
at past help, when *iul ing into hopeless decline,
have recovered renewod life rad energy by ita u«a.

A Good Txiat 11—Almost opposite to our
offioe ia the much talked of "Gnat Monitor
Dollar Store," and onr bettor-half persuaded us
to visit that temple of art and thoueands and
one difertnt things.” Like an obedient has
bscd in tec meat. Oh! what a sight! Easy
and nioe to gaze npon, but how difficult to do
sen be, still, we will try onr beet, and give onr
worthy readers a faint idea of that brilliant es
tablishment, and it anything should remain
unnoticed it ia tba fault of the big crowd that
filled the place and gave us ao much trouble to
squeeze through, and not ours.
Tbe ■tore-room ia 85 feet long by 26 feet
wide; to the right, aa yon enter, the shelves
are finely filled with the finest kinds of writing
desks, made of earned walnut or leather, fine
good ranning docks, toilet and work cases,
china crip* and asneen, boys' and girls' toy
boxes, all kinds of musical instruments includ
ing pianos, harmonicas, asoordeona, banjos,
violins, Antes, concertinas, I rum pets, etc.; fruit
baskets filled with wax fruit, also soap fruits,
filled with liquids of cologne. Next ia the game
department, const sling of aoltos, backgammon,
chess and checker boards, tivolis, block games,
nine pins, dominoes and chessmen- The next
shelf ia literally jammed fall of albums holding
60 to 100 pictures of tbe latest designs and
finest make; this ia followed by the toy depart
ment which ia almost impossible to enumerate,
bat we can tell with oertainty that any toy yon
may think of worth two dollars or more ia sold
there for one dollar. Next ia the millinery and
ladies' famishing department, well assorted,
and folly supplied with the latest styles of tur
bans, sailors, seasides, etc., lace, linen and cot
ton and applique handkerchiefs, calico and
gingham bonnets, hoods and shawls for the
million, hoeery and gloves in all its branches,
embroidered slipper patterns, laoe and embroi
dered collars and cuff*, Balmoral, printed and
embossed shirts, a fall line of ladies' cotton and
linen underware of the celebrated manufacture
of Black A Detahy, Cleveland, Ohio, an unbro
ken stock of calicoes, detainers, stripes, plaids,
ginghams, homespuns, oenabnrgs, etc., corsets
of the best French manufacturers. The rear ia
entirely filled with the shoe stock, embracing
every and all kinds of shoes worn now-a-dsjs;
only one dollar. To our left ia the hat depart
ment, well filled with all the novelties of the
for men, boys' and yonths’, also all kinds
of caps. Next is the crockery and glassware
department, embracing from A to Z, needed in
the household: farther, towards the entrance
are the chinaware shelves filled with everything
nioe and pretty, and we might here have picked
many a vase at one dollar which cost over
thrice the money somewhere else. A thousand
bead baskets really handsome, children's"rocking
chairs, ladies’ and gents' traveling bags, tranks
and valises, umbrellas, parasols, fans, jewelry,
etc.
What those six ten foot titter thou cates con
tain has to be seen to be admired, and it will
well repay any one to go and aeo the only Gen
uine Great Monitor Dollar Store, 85 Cherry
street, and have Mr. Detahy, the senior partner
of the firm, to show yon around.
The reason why so many Charter Oak stoves
are sold is that aa soon aa one ia put up in any
settlement, its performance ia so excellent that
every family conclude they must have one at
onoe. It is as much as Truman A Green can
do to supply tho demand for these excellent
stoves.
Tux wholesale department of the Great Mon-

Fbesh Meat Mamet.—For the benefit of onr
country friends, we give below a retail prices
current of, fresh meat at the stores in Macon
Fresh pork retailing at 15 oents; beef steak 20
cento; sausage meat 15 oento: suasage, stuffed,
20 cents; dressed turkeys 30 oento; dressed
chickens 20 cento. Every man knows his own
business beet, bnt it does seem to us that these
are very “toll” figures. Eggs are retailing at
£0 cents per dozen. How can a poor fellow
with a abort salary, afford a good dinner at such
prices? The only chance ia to fall baok upon
first principles, and take to hog and hominy.
Mas Cmules Moulton.—We are glad indeed
to announce that Macon is to be honored with
a visit from this renowned vocalist. She to an
American lady, and at the early age of fourteen
while singing at a charity concert in Cambridge
attracted universal attention and called forth
the loudest praises. Her musical talent having
beer cultivated in the highest degree, under the
beat masters in Germany, Italy, and other por
tions of the old world, she stands to-day with
out a superior and with bnt few equals in the
muical world. It is Beldom that we are visited
by a vocalist of such renown, and it will be a
gala day for Macon when she arrives. She will
be hero on the 20th inst

TUESDAY MOBNING, DEC. 12, 1871.

Sale or Batlsoad Stocx.—The city of Ms-
con has sold to the Sonlh Caroline Railroad, her
stock in the Mac an and Augusta road for thirty-
five thousand dollars.
Nuisance.—Of all the nuisances with which
city can bo annoyed, a negro tenament
house is perhaps the greatest Living as we do
within fifty feet of one of the delightful places,
we speak from experience. On the corner of
Second and Arch streets, near the negro Baptist
Chnrch, is the house of which we speak. On
Sunday morning wo were entertained for an
hour or more by a quarrel between two sisters,
much to our annoyance, and yesterday after
noon we heard another of the same sort Two
or three big, lazy negro men sit around doing
nothing, (nnlessit is after dark,) and keep os in
continued state of dread and suspense. We
earnestly insist npon the Mayor having the
aforesaid quarters closely looked after. If need
be, a special policeman should be sent to that
portion of the city to look after It Wherever
six to a dozen families ore huddled together
they require special watching, and we again
urge npon Mayor Hoff the neoessity for having
that particular boose attended to.
Exczlsiob! Still Higheb!!—Cotton ad
vanced a half cent yesterday, and we quote the
market firm yesterday afternoon at 18jo. for
middlings. Jast at the close of the year too!
Two “future" men in New York cried “hold,
enough," and suspended operations yesterday.
We could but cry bravo, when we heard it.
We wish nobody in particular any harm, bnt
we do sincerely hope that every “future de
livery" speculator, who sold one bale to be
delivered at a certain price by a certain day,
may break all to atoms. They have done more
to keep down tho price of cotton than any
other elm of men, - in fact, are the men who
have done it all. We fear, however, that the rise
comes too late to do the farmer much good, as
the greater portion of the crop has already
passed into tho bands of the speculator. It
does seem that tho Southern planter onght to
learn after a whilo what aro his true interests!
Oh, if this credit system could only be abol
ished! if not another pound of bacon, or grain
of com wonld bo furnished except for the
money, then tho Sonthem planter could take
his place among the independent as once he
did, and the Southern people would cease to
bo the slaves of Northern task-masters.
Aldebxan Ft.t.t* Peomotzd Aoais.—We see
from the Charleston Courier, of Friday, that
thin gentleman has had another promotion, hav
ing been elected, the day before, one of the
Direotors of the South Carolina Railroad. He
was elected a Director of the Maccn and Au-
gnsta Railroad at the last meeting in October,
so that it begins to look like a combined attack
npon him by tbe railroad people. As the South
Carolina road has now, by purchase of stock,
obtained control of the Macon and Augusta
road, it seems bnt fit that one at least of its di
rectors should reside at this terminns of what is
now, practically, bnt one line.
The Courier in announcing the Alderman’s
election, takes occasion to say these kind words
of him which we are sure will bo appreciated by
his friends in this city. It says:
Mr. Ellis was raised in this city, hence bis
prosperity and advancement in life fill na with
pride and pleasure. He left for Macon. Ga., in
1865, to take up his permanent Ibode. His
means, if any he had, were very limitedThut in
a abort while his sterling business qualities afiff
astute financial talent attracted attention, and
capital came to his aid. He established himself
in tbe banking bnsinoes in bis now home,where
his genial qualities won him troops of friends.
It extended until ho found it necessary to take
in a copartner, which he did in the person of
hie brother, Mr. Hayno Ellin. The firm ia now
W. L. F.lli* A Bro., and, as we have taken occa
sion to say before, is widely known for its relia
bility and prompness of its transactions.

to J. A. Graybill of this city, instructing Mr.

light “sandy” colored side whiskers, with a
small moustache dyed black, bnt the dye mostly
worn off, and presents a very genteel appear

colored corded coat with black velvet collar,
vest of the same, and light English pants. He
wore a heavy blue scarf that covers the entire
shirt front with a diamond shaped jet pin about

Mai ox's Corn.—The temple ot justice was
densely crowded yesterday morning, the popular
color prevailing, though not entirely taking
charge. A few of the unfortunate class called
white, were on hand. A conple of yonths named
Sinclair and Martin were charged with getting
on too familiar terms with lamp posts and fenoea,
trying to give them all a hug and a boss, at the
same time using affectionate language such as
ia customary oo each occasion and in tones too
loud to be appreciated b; all the neighbors
Sinclair paid ten dollars for his fan, and Mar
tin will betake himself to the assistance of those
who perform manual labor upon the streets for
forty days, unless he can fish np a two X dollar
william to hire somebody in bis place.
Gas Dessau is a regular visitor to bis Honor’s
entertainments once every thirty days. His
last thirty were just out and he was again on
hand npon the fririlons charge of stealing a pair
of shoes. Ten dollars or another thirty will
settle the bill.
Jane Cox and Lacy Qaiok made bets aa to who
coaid kill the most whisky on Saturday, and
they were pretty “quick" about getting “cocked"
and primed for tho onslaught. They got power-
fnl jolly about it and had a heap of fan, for
which th6y pay ten dollars into the city treasury
or dream of loved ones far away, in the gurrd
honse until about the 10th of January, 1872.
Jack Harvey said he was drank too, and no-
body doubled it, bnt that didn’t satisfy the mind
of the court as to a little “fingering” he had
done; ao Jack con shovel dirt for tho benefit of
parties opposed to patronizing street railroads
and accommodation backs, until a little after
Christmas, unless somebody will lend him ten
dollars. Then we adjourned and the court did
likewise.

Washington, December It.—Ward vs. State
of Maryland—error—to the Supreme Coart of
Maryland. In this case the plaintiff in error
was indicted in tho State Conrt for violating
statute against sales by sample by non-residents
without license, and the court affirmed the
right of the State to exact the license. This
court holds that the atatute of Maryland ii a vio
lation of that clause of the Conststntion which
guarantees to the citizens of each State all the
rights, privileges, etc., of citizens in the sev
eral States, and that it is therefore void; but
the view is taken that it is not a violation of
the commercial clause of tbe Constitntion if the
tax on residents and non-residents is equally
laid.
Mr. Justice Clifford delivered the opinion of the
Court. Mr. Justice Bradley concurred in the
opinion as to the first branch of the decision,
bnt dissented as to the seoond, bolding that the
statute is a violation of tbe commercial clause of
the constitntion, because it is a regulation of
of commerce between States, and that it is re
pugnant to this clause of the constitntion with
out regard to tho equality of the tax.

Annapolis, December 11.—Professor Aiken
testifies in tbe Wharton trial that failing to
find strychnine or arsenic, led him to suspect
the presence of antimony which he established
by two or three results characteristic of anti
mony and nq thing else. He detailed the pro
cess and treatment for determining the pres
ence cf antimony and made tests to ascertain in
in what particular compound antimony was
present; there certainly was only tho presence
of an antimonal containing that particular or-
dinasy article of commerce known as tarter
emetic, tbe result or compound obtained was
sulphide of antimony, the quantity could not
have have been less than twenty grains and if
you call tbe tartar emetic there were
fully twenty grains or more. The
ten grains of gniphide of antimony present
would make twenty grains of tartar emetic.
The witness was examined concerning the sedi
ment found in the tumblerat Mrs. Wharton’s, a
tumbler containing sediment was placed in
his hands ky Dr. Chew which be tested for
tartar emetic. It verified his tests and he found

of tbo British government in the cases of the
Hornet and Florida. Several interviews were
