Pittsburgh, Pa, on receipt of a two cent stamp, will forward a copy by miil to any person who cannot procure one in hie neighborhood. Tbe Bitter* are sold in avery dry, town and village* and are axteosively need throughout the entire dvfiized Ax other Huadea.—Yesterday morning a ne gro man was found dead near the Baptist Mix tion Church on Troupe Hill. He was badly cut and had evidently received the wounds in the immediate vicinity. The murderer is unknown. The Weather.—Since Saturday last are have had very unpleasant weather. The temperature has been almost as warm as in mid anmmer, and the rain fall has been very heavy. The water courses are much swollen bnt we have beard of no material damage done. Killed.—In a difficulty yesterday evening about 6 o'clock, John Fleming was shot and in stantly killed by L. C. Kicks. U. surrendered If to an officer. Aa the caw will be in vestigated this morning we forbear comment until the facts are brought out in open court. The Streets.—Tho heavy nine of the past few days have had a washing effect upon the streets in the more hilly portions of the city. On Arch street immense gullies have been made, and we bear of others in the same condition. The amhoritiw will, of coarse, look after them aa rapidly as possible, and soon aU will be well again. Chrutkas Fun.—The boys bad any quantity of fun, and everybody seemed to be enjoying things finely. But the beat sport was realized by those who ate and drank at the Georgia No. 2. Everything to done there in nice stylo and Casey bad a heavy run. Meals at all boon of the very best the market affords. Call in. Rattle at Calloc' To-night.—Because of the fire excitement, the reffle for the horse, diamond pin snd gun, at Carlos’ was postponed until to-night. Each article to well worth the price at which it is valued, while a chance to offered to get one of the three for ton dollars. Tbe three successful parties will be required to treat tbe crowd to a fine supper and we know they will have a nice time. Don't fail to bo on hand if you want to have some fun. Election or Officios.—At a regular meeting of Constantine Chapter, No. 4, B. A. H., the following Companions were elected officers for the ensning Masonic year: Chas. B. Armstrong, High Priest; John G. Deitz, King; O. N. Dana, Scribe; L. W. Hunt, 0. H.; W. M. Key, P. S.; J. J. Cornell, B. A. G; J. Fnsa, M. Sd Veil; J. F. Greer, M. 2d Veil; A. G. Batts, M. 1st Veil; G. S. Obear, Treasurer; Milo 8. Free man, Secretary; C. H. Freeman, Sentinel. Sale or the Fine Painttnos Postponed. The weather being ao unfavorable last night, Mr. Levy failed to eeeare an attendance at the hall where hie fine paintings are on exhibition. He intended packing np and going away this morning, bnt at the earnest solicitation of sev eral parties, be has consented to make one more effort this evening at 7 o'clock. We again urge onr citizens to attend and take advantage of this rare opportunity offered to secure gen uine works of art. Remember that the sale will poeitively take plaoe at 7 o’clock this even ing regardless of the weather. This will posi tively be the last opportnnity, as Mr. Levy will leave on Thnrsday with such as remain unsold. Supped at A veils' Hall —Perhaps onr chiro- grapby is none of the best, but when we wrote the article relative to tbe sapper at Ayers' Hall for onr Sunday's issue, we wrote Thursday as plainly as we oould. On opening tbe paper Sun day morning, we fonnd that a printer had man aged to make Tuesday of it. The supper takes place on Thnrsday night, and we hope will be largely attended by onr people. The object for which it is given should touch a sympathetic chord in every bosom. The proceeds are for tbe benefit of the poor Fobool under tbe super vision of tbe ladies of the Mulberry Street Methodist Church. Surely, no citizen of Macon will object to giving one dollar toward so noble a cause. The ladies will spare no labor nor ex pense to make the sapper such as will satify the most confirmed epicure. Febsonal.—We were pleased to receive a call, during the past week, from Mr. Clark, Dr. Ayer's traveller, who was in our town devoting his time and attention to tbe preparations of the great medicine man. This call has become a pleasant annual to ns from the able and reliable business character of the accomplished gentle men whom this ‘firm send oat to transact their business. No house is bettor known or valued by tbe press for its promptness in settlement than tho well established and popular J. C. Ayer A Co., Lowell, Mass., whose medicines have be- oorne a household necessity, and won the confi dence and praise of alL Our own acquaintance with them has extended over a series of years, and we have invariably found them, their trav elers and their medicines, worthy of tho com mendations they everywhere reoeive.—Jackson (TVnn.) Tribune. A Koval Bow.—On Sunday morning, at about one and a half o’clock, having just re tired, we were startled by tbe screams of chil dren, load cursing and the sonnd of blows near by. Hastening to the door, wo fonnd that a regular Christmas fight was going on among a lot of negroes, in (be honae next the negro Baptist Church, on Second street. Not feeling a personal interest in the physical welfare of any parly engaged in the sport, wo closed doors and made a second effort to sleep, bnt with no success for several minntes, so load wss the disturbance. On Sunday morning the neigh borhood was entertained (we learn) with another of the same sort. Without any ill feeling to ward the proprietor of the negro tenement houses in that vicinity, we think that he should be required to keep no disorderly persons in them, or close them altogether. Since we have been living near them there have been not less than three or four disturbances upon tho prem ises, and they almost invariably occur at night, orach to the annoyance of the neighbors gen erally. Ladies living near them are kept in a continual state of dread when left sloxe after nightfall. Will the authorities please look after this? _ A Tiar to Southwest Geoegia.—Wc made a flying visit to Clay county on Sunday last and returned on Monday night While g' lug down, wo were well oared for by onr friend Zass, and on onr return by Mr. Harris. It was our first acquaintance with Mr. EL, and we were by no means unfavorably Impressed with his attention to and care for the well being of passengers on board his train. It is unnecessary to speak in praise of Mr. Bats, as everybody knows he is just as clever and accommodating aa a man can We stepped into the Johnson House at Smithville, and considering the fact that we were not hungry, Mr. Johnson, by his kindness and the tempting dinner set before ns, managed to get a good square meal into ns. The Me ssrs. Johnson are excellent feeders [and treat their guests in such maimer aa never to lose a cruto- . Wo commend them to the patronage of the traveling public. We fonnd the country everywhere flooded with water anjj the people generally very low spirited. He cotton crop is short in that section, and bnt few planters have realized a cent of profit on the year's labor. Many have come out in debt, and money is ex cecdingly scarce. Business is doll, bnt a change for the better is looked for by the merchants in short time. Tho impression prevails that moat of tbe fanners hire some cash or cotton on hand, bnt are bolding for farther depression of prices in merchandise. Wo hope it may prove true, hot fear they are mistaken. DisisTsors Fritz.—At about seven o'clock, night before last, a Roman candle was being fired off in tbe street, and one fire ball passed into the store of Mr. A. Wsnnack. foiling among a large lot of fire works. Immediately they took firo and were throwing the destroying ele ment in every direction throughont the build ing. Tho flimes quoad rapidly, and soon the entire building was in flames. The fire compa nies were on hand promptly, and though al most superhuman efforts were made, the head way of the fire oould not bo checked until the two buildings adjoining, one occupied by Mrs. taelson as a dry goods store and the other by Daly Jc Bro. as a grocery establishment, h«d been destroyed. A portion of the stocks of Mrs. Michaelson and tho Messrs. Daly was saved, but considerably damaged. The respective losses and amount of insurance of the parties, ss near ly aa wa can get them, are as follows: Daly A Bro.—lore $20,000, insured for $15,000 as fol lows: $5,000 in tho -Etna, of Hartford; $5,000 in the Continental of New York, and $5,000 in the Phoenix, of Hartford. Mrs. Michaelson- loss $5,000, insured for $3,000 in tho .Etna, of Hartford. A. Wsnnack—loos $7,000, insured for $4,000 in the .Etna. Too much can not bo said in praise of the freedmen who labored incessantly and effec tually in arresting the flames. They worked where and whenever directed by tbe Chief of thfl Fire Department It to another evidence of the freed man's natural disposition, when left undisturbed by Radical emissaries, to befriend his former muter and sid in the general welfare of the community in which ho lives. Oh, that the day may speedily come when they will learn that those who cared for them while slaves, en tertain no feeling of enmity toward them be cause of their emancipation; when they will cease to listen to the advice of strangers, who profess friendship only to use them for their own aggrandisement; when the v will learn that it to their professed friends who decieve and swindle them and not their former milters. In behalf, and at the request of many of the citi zens of Macon, we thank them for their services on Monday night Worse than a bed of thorns are the miseries of indigestion. To escape them men have committed suicide. Yet they are banished summarily, and the vigor of the stomach re stored by the occasional use of Simmons' Liver Begnlatior.
