Riocitron Dot—For the upbuilding of imper
fect health, a regulated diet ia often had recourse
to. Bat thie ie open to the objection, that even un
der the moet ekilfnl handling, there may be articles
of food prescribed which—at leaet in aome cirenm-
etanoea and to aome oonetltntiooe—may prove the
reverse of beneficial. The nae of a tonic stimulant,
(aacb aa Dr. Gottlieb Fiach’a Bittern,) obviate* thie
drawback; because it ia one of the propertie* of
true tonic etimnlant to urge on tho excretory fane
•ion*, and ttraa to enable the eyetem, with the
greater ease and promptitude, to throw off any-
thing which, through peculiarity of oonetitntion,
may have proved injnriooe. Such, in ite working*,
U Dr. Gottlieb Fiecb’a Bittern; so that while it has
the positive merit of strengthening the directive
fanctiona and the appetite, sod tbna increasing the
nervous and moseolar force* of the eyetem gen
erally, it ha* also the negative merit, that it cannot
poaaibly do harm!
This subject continued next week under " food

winter toil* tremendously upon enfeebled systems
Every one knows that in passing from a warm re
gion to scold one, or vice versa, the body regain*
is a protection against epidemics, an acclimating
medicine. All traveller* and voyagers admit this.
It ia equally necessary to acclimate the system in
passing the confines of one season and entering
upon another. Aotnmn ia gone and winter ia hare.
Prepare the frame end the constitution to meet the
change by a course of Hostetler's Stomach Bitters.
Toie inestimable vegetable tonic increases the
stamina! strength of those who take it, and renders
them proof to a great extent against the devitaliz
ing power of cold and damp. Thee* two agents
are as prolific of disease aa tropical heat, and ani
mat vigor-such vigor u this healthful and pare tonic
diffuses through tbo whole organizition—ia a re
pellent which they cannot matter. A large propor
tion of the colds, catarrhs, and pulmonaiy 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 ia reoommended aa a spccidc for those oomplainta,
bat as a preventive of their causes On the other
hand, it ie not only a preventive of, but a specific
for the indigestion, intestinal irregularities, mala
rious fevers, bilious attacks, and nervous affection,
snperinduced by a chilly and damp atmosbers.
Goon Hr.imir axn Loxo Lin.—There is noth
ing more worthy of careful consideration than a
general knowledge of the plainest and moet com
mon-sense laws of medicine and health. Upon this
understanding and observation depends our health,
strength, and longevity. We do not propose to
make doctors of everybody; hot we would have all
suffioisntly well posted aa to be able to protect
themselves against the impositions of bigoted
quacks and misguided fool* and knaves who prey
upon the fears of the unthinking masses, only to
plnnge them into a ruin from which naught but
death will release them.
Our theory ia, progress io medicine, a* in every,
thing else. The medical bigot, who is as wise as an
owl, oppose* all innovations or reformations—no
advancement for him. He wants to aland where
science etood two thousand years ago. He believes
In blood-letting, puking, and purging, a* the only

stomach will regulate itself; Plantation Bitten aids
the stomach in generating a natural warmth,
which at once sets in motion the machinery of
digestion, and expela dyspepsia with its horrid
nightmare.

THURSDAY MORNING. DEC. 14. 1871.
. Seateso item open every night from half
peat seven to half-past nine o'clock.
RExuxEbCEsera or the Wai, Etc.—The book
by Captain Jacob, which we noticed in yester
day morning's iasneia for sale at the book stores
in this city.
Baxzeb says he has pat an advertisement
in the paper of this morning, in order to let the
people know where they can get Chrism ia fix
ings with nopiten in them.
Chascx fob Isvxstxext.—A. K. Seago, of
Atlanta, advertises in this issue, one hundred
thousand dollars’ worth of real estate in that
city for sale. Parties having capital to invest
in that way, would no doubt do well to give
him a trial.
L* Bad Coxomox.—We learn that at the
entrance toTatnaU square on tho Columbus
rood U to almost impossible for wagons to pass
because of the deep washes in the road. It to
an important thoroughfare to th^city, and we
urge upon the authorities the necessity for
looking after it at once.
Cheap Eatixo.—So strongly were we tempted
by tbe thought of steak at 15 cents that we
dropped into Merritt k Bros.'a on Cotton Ave
nue, yesterday, and bought enough for a couple
of messes. Wo found it drat-rato steak—just
as good as any in tbe citv—and aa it to the
cheapest place for steak in town we commend
them to the public patronage.
Dax Bras Coming.—We learn that tho cele
brated Dan Rica with his world renowned cir
cus will bo in Macon daring tho second week in
January and will perhaps spend two days with
us. Hia to undoubtedly a circus of the first
order, and will attract immense audiences to
each entertainment We hope in a few days to
be able to announce the date of his intended
entrance into the city.
Diabies foe 1872.—Among the many things
of value and beauty recently received by Brown
k Co., there to nothing nicer than their diaries
for 1872. They are handsomely bound with
morocco and contain a foil calendar, together
with a blank page for each day ia the year. In
either side are several pockets for money, pa
pera, tickets, stamps, etc., making a complete
pocket book, diary, memorandum and almanac.
Cobbeotiox.—In speaking of the money oli-
toined by Edgeworth alias AndersoD, eta, from
Mr. Plant in our yesterday’s issue, we said that
it was drawn from the First National Bank upon
a forged chock. Snch was our information, and
we went to the bank to ascertain the facta in tbe
case, but it was closed and we gave them just
aa we heard them. The money was obtained
from L C. Plant k Son on a forged dispatch in
stead of tho bank.
Spaxish Wise.—Now that the holidays are
approaching, we beg to call tho attention of onr
readers to the advertisement of H. L. Richard
son, 184 Bay street, Savannah, who imports tho
celebrated Cnowx SnEnnT. We have tried this
wine ourselves and found it to be exoellent, and
if what we hear to true, parlies desiring to toy
in a stock for Christmas, had better send their
orders to him at onoe, to insnre their being filled
in time.
Dild.—Ed. Fan, proprietor of the Merchants'
Exohange, died yesterday morning at 6 o’clock,
of dropsy. He had suffered for nearly three
weeks before his death, and for three days was
entirely unconscious. He has no family, but
has been a great help to his mother and aisters
who live in Spain, his nativo country. His
kindness to them never faltered, aud they will
feel his loss deeply. He has no relatives in Ma
con, but leaves a number of friends who deeply
regret his death.
J. A. Peon, the popular artist on the corner
of Seoond and Mulborry streets, seems deter
mined that his patrons shall know where to find
him if signs will do any good. In addition to
the beautiful sign, near the top of the building,
he has just had another put up extending the
entire length of the bnilding. Christmas to
coming and you should not fall to have some
nice pioturea taken to give to your friends ns
Christmas presents. You can find Pugh’s by
the signs and the good pictures in the show
cases at tbo door.
■The Sauk.”—It was just tho same thing
oveftgain yesterday—that rush at Carlos' sa
loon. He had a lot of fine ducks hung out as a
*Bign," and not only his old customers, but
many new ones, wero attracted thither for din
ner, expecting to get something better than
usual; bnt they were sadly disappointed, from
the fact that he has the best every day, and yes
terday was no exception to the tula If you
want a real good meal and a real good “drop of
the crater ” before eating, don't fail to call on
him.
Ovaran Surras.—Tho lady members of the
Mulberry Street Methodist Church will give an
‘oyster supper” in Ayers Hall on Thursday
evening, the 28th inst The proceeds to be de
voted to charitable purposes. No efforts will
be spared to make the bill of fare such sb will
give satisfaction to the most confirmed epicure^
and we aolioit for them at the hands of the
good people of Macon, a liberal patronage.
How much belter to attend a supper of this
kind, superintended by todies, where every
thing will “bo done decently and in order”
ih*n an entertainment where wines, whisky
and brandy are tho principle featnres of attrac
tion. -
Axotheb Suicide.—Day before
tho afternoon, a horse belonging to Messrs
T. k B. P. Walker attached to a
they deliver goods in the city, became fright

Moaz Police.—It dbqj seem to us that the
present number of policemen in the city^of
Macon to a perfect faroa ThelUen-of'uflempt-
ihg to patrol a city of the size ot this with ten
men is simply ridiculous. And especially da
ring the holidays will a heavy force be necessary.
than thirty men cannot look after tbe city
as it should be done. The “beats" over which
each policeman must walk when on duty are so
long that a half hour at least to required to make
one ronnd. Depredations of any kind can be
committed at one end of a “beat” while the
officer to at the other, and no one know of it
The outskirts of the city are not looked after at
ail, and it to there that policemen are needed
more than elsewhere. In onr opinion, it to beat
either to increase the force or disband it alto
gether and let every man trust in Providenee
and himself.
Woeth Seeing.—Dan Rice with his huge
circus to coining, and we doubt not be has a
•big show.” Bat we saw something yesterday
that will just toy all the shows completely in
the shade. We admire the beautiful, but must
oonfees that we have an eye more specially to
the useful. We admire fine clothes, but have
passed the age where they are the ultimathnle
of onr ambition, and something to eat to to our
eyes (or to our stomach at least,) more attrac
tive than anything else. But to our show. We
made * general survey of (he store of S. T. k
B. P. Walker on Cherry street and went away
so hungry that we could scarcely contain our
self till dinner. Therefwere spareribe, back
bones, sausages and aU other parts of the
swine, beefsteak as fat andnioe as we ever
saw, dressed chickens, turkeys, ducks, squirrels,
fresh fish and oysters, salt fish of every kind,
cabbages, celery, the nicest hams, batter,
cheese, crackers, oranges, apples, and endless
variety of jellies, jams, pickles, eta, and then
the candy, oh 1 what a lot of the nicest
genuine imported candies, canned frrnts of any
rind; in snort any and everything that to good
to eat. To enumerate all they have would oc
cupy too much apace, and we recommend to
everybody that if they want to feast their eyes
(and stomachs too) they had better do as we
did, go and see for yourselves and be sure to
take a little change with jon, for you will be
sure to want to bny something before you get
through.

Havanna. December 13.—A document has
been issued by prominent insurgents who have
lately surrendered to the Government, and
which is Rigned|by*tho two Recios, 'SoiuiivaD.
several Agneras. three Borros, Betancourt. Mel-
etor. Bonial, two Varoo*. and over 3200 others
of leaa Import inoe, dated at Puerto Principe,
and says in future wo will adhere to the throne
of Spain, and are now disposed to aid the gov
ernment. We have run onr illusions and van
ished, because the country failed to support us
and foreigners failed to send ns aid. The gov
ernment of Spain U now sufficiently strong to
maintain the integrity of the territory. The
document further says, that insurgents now in
the field aro mostly negroes under the leader
ship of Ignacio Agraloate, who rebelled against
Cespedes. Not a bouse is left standing
in the whole country between Los Tnmas
and Moron, and tbe desolation that prevails is
torrible. All hopes of tbe insurgents succeed
ing politically have been given up, and the des
truction to the country has been rapidly going
on. Tho negroes aro working to make them
selves masters of the situation, and are domi
nant in the districts lately held by tho insur
rectionists. The surrendered insurgents who
signed the document at Los Tumas protest
against a prolongation of the fight aud con
sider the salvation of the country as obtained
and look forward to reconstruction and early
peace.
The signers praise the qualities of Yalmaseda
and his partizans to attract the insnrgents, and
ask the King to make concessions to the island
after peaoe shall have been established, re
maining as a specialty a liberal constitution.
Tbe signers abjure their past records and
believe that they represent a majority of their
party. Fifteen thonsand insnrgents have sur-
retyiered during (he past year in tho Central
department, state individually and oollectedly
that they are ready to perform whatever duty
may bs required of them as good and honest
Spaniards. Tbe Gaoela newspaper publishes
the document of the surrendered insnrgents in
its edition of to-morrow. Tbo document is
considered a severe blow to insurrection on ac
count of the influence of the signors.

The barometer which was Tuesnay afternoon
in northern Illinois has moved eastnortbeast to
Lake Ontario and has extended somewhat south
east over New Jersey. Cloudy weather with
snow and rain have preceded its progress and
now prevail in New England and New York.
Cold northwest winds with light snow follow its
course. The barometer has risen but again fallen
in the Southwest, and baa risen decidedly in the
Northwest. Brisk and high winds have been re
ported from Lakes Michigan and Ontario, but
have now generally subsided. The pressure has
risen in Montana and Oregon, but has fallen on
the California coast, an area of high barometer
having apparently advanced northeast through
Washington Territory.
Probabilities: Tbe barometer will probably
rise throughout the Missouri Valley, but fall on
Thursday on the Gulf coast Cloudy weather
will prevail from Kentucky and west, and east
with snow to-night very generally from Mary
land to Maine. The lowest barometer will
advance northeast over New England, preceded
by increasing easterly wind*, and followed on*
Thursday by northwest winds and cloudy
weather in the Middle and Eastern States.
Cloudy weather will continue on the Golf coast.
Partially cloudy weather and rising temperature
in the interior of the Gulf and Southern States.

over wbom they could exercise no control, and
which acts they had no power to prevent; upon
this ground and without! giving any opinion
upon other points raised in the case which will
be considered hereafter in another case, the
