Everybody apeak* of it aa an acquisition or
Imposition; a tonir,thing that we have obtained
or haa taken up a “local habitation and a name”

ner, haa potaeaaed or “obaeeaed' ns. When
aiek of a oo'd we hare a vague idea that aome.
thing not of na ia aomawbara within na or all
through no, and somehow doing something that
ia destructive to tha vitel machinery. Wa aay
wa have “taken cold.' We might na wail aay
that told hat take* va. Neither ia true. It
would be much nearer tha truth to aay that we
have taken heat. How awkwardly “I have
caught a vary had beat" would round! Bat .only
bocaaae the expreaeion ia nnfa miliar. It ia not
scientifically oorrect, bnt much nearer adeotifie
truth than the everyday phrase, “I have got a
aevera cold.''
Wa an all snSdentiy familiar with tha ding,
natio at a cold—the symptoms and feehnga
which oonatitnte its phenomenology ; a sore
nose: a disposition to sneeze; a tenderness of
the ayaa; a heaviness of the head; a neuralgic
numbness of tho scalp; a tickling In tha throat;
more or lorn inclination to cough; stiffness in
some of the mnaelaa; an all-over sense of weari-
ness, and, in bad oases, running at tha nose and
violent cough, with more or leas feverishness
and chilliness promiscuously interUended.
m rAiaotoor.
Tbe whole explanation ia dododblo from the
fact Out wo have overheated ourselves after be
ing preternatnrally cooled; or, in leas technical
parlanoe, the transition from odd to heat haa
been too sudden, that is all. If we should be
cooled down to any degree, even lo the freezing
point, or anywhere between32 degress and OH
degrees Fahrenheit, and kept in that oondition,
wa should never have a “cold.” We could not
pomihly, under' snob circumstances, "get a
cold,” nor would “a oold” got na. We cooid not
"oatch" it, nor would it catch us. Wa should
be cold, but, paradoxical as it may aaem, we
abonld not have “a oold." Wa might die; we
might freeze to death; we might oeaae to Uve,
because of oold, bnt we should not have any
disease whatever. A frog may be frozen as bard
and stiff as a caks or lee, remain no an indefi
nite time, then be thawed out again, and leap
about as lively aa over, without the slightest
symptom of having taken “a cold." Bo we aee
that the rationale of “acold” ia not to be found
in mere oooling, nor beating, nor in both, but in
something very different—s statement that ap
plies to ail the maladies that flesh or bone ia
heir to, aa well aa to a “cold.”
Cold, therefore, is not disease, bnt “acold”
la. Cold ia only a diminution of beat, and
beat is only a mode of motion. To beoomo
oold is merely to lose a certain amount of heat
—molecular motion. It is with the living or
ganism aa with all other materiel substances,
so far as tho “correlation of forces” ia con
cerned. If tbe atove in your room is cold, it is
bees use the particles of iron which compose it
move more slowly. Increase their velocity a
little by starting a fire in it, and tbe metalic
atomy revolve more rapidly on tbeiraxes. Tbe
oold »tove beoomei warm. We aay the latent
heat has heroine tcnoible heat. Tyndall says
“tremulous molecular motion.” Aed fuel to
the fire, and the “latent" heat becomes still
more “sensible. The ferruginous atoms move
still faster. “Molecular motion” now instead
of being moderate or “tremulous," ia violent.
Increase the Are still more, and the atove be-
oomes red-hot. Molecular motion is now very
rapid, and the particles of the atove recede bo
far from each other that tbe stove becomes po
rous to certain gases. Then it is that, in
the ordinary ooal stove, carbonic oxids, a dead
ly poison, pannes through the seemingly solid
sides of the stave as water runs through a
sieve. Then it ia that, nnleas tbe room is un
usually well ventilated, yon are aare to be
poisoned with irreepirablo gases. And this is
one of the many ways of “ taking cold.”
“OAniAAST CONOE8TION" IS what's THX VATTEU.
lint, having got the oold, whet is it? It is,
simply “capillary congestionthat is, an over-
distention of the blood-vessels of ths port which
iasaid to be the “seat” of it. Cold in tho head”
means congestion of tbe Schneiderian membrane
which lines the nostrils to that degree that heat
and pain result when the nmooua membrane is
properly said to he inflamed. Tbe difference
therefore, between e local “oold" and a local in
flammation is only a difference of Degree. It
would be just as proper to term inflammation of
the lungs (pneumonia), “cold in the chest" as
to apply ths phrase “cold in tho bead” to in
flammation of the mucous membrane of the
nose. In strict medical parlance, when the
capillary vessels of any organ or part arc dls
proportionately filled with blood (overloaded,)
tbe congestion may be applied, if tbe part so
affected la painlul, the word irritation is em
ployed. And fi tbe pagtaaro painful and hot
also, the term inflammation is used. These
terms, therefore, moan simply different degrees
and ronditiona of obstruction in the capillary
blood-
novr it vroBKS.
Now, “rolda,” bowevor canted, differ in Uie
manifestation of their symptoms according to
the oonditiona of the various organs of the pa
tients at the time of “taking" it. “One who
is very plethoric may be “struck” with apoplexy
or palsy; one whoso blood is very fonl may be
"stuoked” with typhoid fever; one whose joints
ere obstructed with earthy or saline panicles
may be “seized" with rheumatism or gout;
one whet* bowels have long been constipated
rosy have a "touch" of dysentery, ora “run" of
dlarrhiea; and one whose liver has long
been torpid may have a bilious “turn,” provid
ed, in all eases, the exposure to oold, and then
lo heat, be sufficiently extreme. But if the
. cause lie alight, the effect will be correspond
ingly light, and ooly amount to a “common
cold,” which means a moderately sore noae and
a alight degree of feverishness.
rmavumoit or oold.
To get away from thia infliotion, one must
avoid extreme alterations of temperature, and
when one baa been expoaed to oold he must
hast the body very gradually. Never go near a
hot atove or steam ooil because the sensation
ia agreeable. A oold part of the body cannot
be warmed too slowly, for the good of the struc
tures composing it. The safety of e frozen pert
is always secured by thawing it as slowly aa pos
sible. A part may be frozen and thawed a
hundred times without appreciable injury, if
properly managed, as I have repeatedly de
monstrated.
Who ever beard of the explorers of the Arctic
regions “taking oolda” Of all who acoompa
nied Buchan, Franklin, Boss, Forty and Kane,
no one was ever aiek of a oold, although living
fur months and yean at a temperature many
degrees below the freezing point. In 1820, a
Mr. Blaok, of Bir John Franklin's party, trav
eled alone 1,100 miles with the thermometer 50
degrees below aero. He had only a blanket
and deerskin to sleep trader, and was frequently
without food for two or three deya at a time.
Yet be did not take oold.
Chiliblaina are among the familiar examples
of tbe evil oonsequeocea of warming the hands
and feet too rapidly after having been exposed
to extreme cold.
The moat efficient preventatives of “oold'
are equable clothing and pore sir. Especially
ia it important to protect the feet.
The writer then proceeds to allude lo the
danger of fashionable clothing which, in the
case of women and children, ia mainly about
the hipa and abdomen, while the feet and legs
are Insufficiently protected, and whose results
are oolda in the head, while a consumptive pre
disposition and diathesis are often wholly trace
able to thin shoes and stocking*.
Nothing ao effectually prepares the system
for taking oold as fool air, and hence, oar
churohea, school, bo uses, hospitals, halls, and
railway ran are preparations for this com
plaint. It is the rule among all people that
colds, catarrh, roughs, bronchial affections, and
pulmonany consumption prevail precisely in
proportion aa the people Uve indoors.
Fire and clothing should be used to the extent
demanded by the most pleasant bodily feelings,
providing there ia a supply of pure fresh air.
It is a mistake to try and keep a room warm by
abutting the oold out. Nothing renders a ;
aoa more susceptible to takeooldor be attac
with rheomatio affections, be “seized” with
typhoid pneumonia or influenza, and to have
"seated" inflammations and “running" fevers,
than the fonl blood resulting from bad air. A
truly hygienic method for warming and ventil
ating houses is etiU among the desiderata of ao-1
eial problems.
Bathing, as a preventive, ia all that has ever
been claimed for It, provided it ia employed hy-
gienically. But in thia matter many penont
spoil a good thing by overdoing, aa they do
gymnastics, or aa one might apod a good din-
tor, or tha good of a dinner, by eating too mnch

This treatment waa always efficacious: that is

heard of an “ignorant none” or an “old granny

the scientific practice of regular physicians,
such things happen every day in the year.
But although these domestic simples were not

mature, with abnudanoe of fresh air to breathe,
.f be ia chilly, stiff, rheumatic, or neuralgic, a
warm bath or vapor bath ia useful. It should
not be prolonged more than 20 to 25 minutes.
There ia not mnch to choose between warm and
vapor baths to "break up" rolda (which means,
to curs ths patient so soon that inflammation or
fever will not "supervene,”) bnt it is important
that the patient be not excessively bested with
either process. By overheating the surface the
existing capillary engorgement is increased, ths
patient uaeiemly weakened, and the effects of
tho “cold” in various ways aggravated.

B the patient ia feverish (having passed the
■tegs of rigors or chills), nothing is better than
the wet-sheet peck for on hour, provided it is
judiciously managed. Tbe sheet may be dipped
in warm, tepid, oool, or cold water, as either
may be most agreeable to the sensations of the
patient. But when the wet sheet is impractica
ble, the next best thing is the tepid or moder
ately warm bath—90 degrees to 95 degrees—pro
longed for 30 to 40 minutes. When there is
much headache, or congestion of the lungs (in
dicated by laborious respiration), or a diffused
feeling of eorsorai through the chest, the warm
hip-bath and the hot foot-bath should be con-
joincd.
For the irritating rough ("barking ), that ia
■o hsT*srifig to many patients, nothing is better
ijisn frequent small draughts of warm water;
and when the throat is inflamed, or the tonsils
awollen ao that deglutition is painfal, a wet nap
kin oovered with a dry cloth should be put
around the neck and worn until relieved, re-
weting the doth as often as it becomes dry. It
should be wet in oool water.

When tbe muscles of the neck are stiff and
lame, or the intercostal muscles so tender that
it is painful fully to inflate the lungs (e condi
tion often mistaken for pleurisy), fomentations
should be applied till the symptoms ere re
lieved.
Among the remedial agents not to be despised
in the treatment of colds, are retpiratory oxer-
cite*. The patient should lie flat on the back,
the bead raised a little with a pillow, and in
this position should practice deep and full in
spirations and expirations, expending the lungs
as ranch as possible without pain or fatigue.
Those who have never tried this “ movement-
cure ” process may perhaps be astonished at
the facility with which it will relieve all tbe bad
feelings and symptoms. If adopted in the In
cipient stages of an " awful oold,” and vigor
ously employed for 10 or 15 minutes, once in
an hour or two, it will prevent s dangerous de
gree of congestion of the lungs and thereby ob
viate the supervention of bronchitis or pneu

TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER
FOR 1872.
For nearly half a century the Georgia Telegraph and the Georgia
Journal and Messenger, either separately or united, have been the
great organs of general intelligence to this and the contiguous sections
of Georgia and Alabama. In all the varied social, civil and political
experience of this region daring that extended and momentous period
in its history, these old Journals have been tbe constant and famibar
visitors of thousands of households -in this vast area of country, and
have numbered their readers and patrons by successive generations.
In the whole scope of this great Agricultural section of two of the
most important Cctton States, the fortunes of these journals have varied
simply with the varying fortunes of the people, and to-day their cir
culation and hold upon the public confidence and estimation have never
been exceeded at any period in their long history. Indeed, as the
demands upon newspapers became yearly more exacting—the expen
ses of publication increase and concentration of capital and labor be
come more indispensable, so, we are glad to say, our circulation and
influence increase with equal steps. The former have multiplied more
than tenfold in the last twenty years, and the circulation and business
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 newspaper possessing a more complete occupation of its pecu
liar field of circulation than do the various editions of the Telegraph
and Messenger, within that whole region of country to which it can
cany the earliest intelligence. Its circulation in gross we suppose to
be not exceeded by that of any newspaper in the Carolinas, Georgia,
Alabama and Mississippi, with perhaps a single exception, but 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 city,
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 and
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 habit 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.

THE WEEKLY TELEGKAPH& MESSENGER
Is an immense sheet, 3Sx52 inches in size and containing fifty-six col
umns. It is designed to contain a full and connected history of the
week, and although its great size is complained of by some, yet we
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 fuU measure of its deserts, Will not its readers
everywhere interest themselves in extending the sphere of its useful
ness ? The price of the paper is three dollars per annum, but if any
reader has a mind to add another new subscriber to the list, he may
remit five doUars, and we will send the paper to the new subscriber
and add a year to bis own account.
