bilious lexer. His remains were taken
to Atlanta for interment.
The Weather.
There was as much complaint of the
heat yenterdav as there has been any day
this season. Wa do not know what the
range of tho thermometer was; but its
nltitudo must haro been well up In the
nineties. The drouth continues and the
street*, nro very dusty.
Court house Burned.
The Court house at Baxley, in Appling
county, was burnod Thursday morning.
The fire was discovered about one o’olock
in tho morning, hut it was impossible to
navo tho building, which was entirely
consumed together with all the reoords
of the county. Tho fire is regarded as
tho work of an incendiary.
No Meeting.
Wo haro boen requostod to recall tho
appoint mont of a meeting of the country
citizens of Ilibb county at tho Court
house to- day. It has boon deemed un
necessary to hold the proposed meeting,
ns tho system of nominating eandidatea
for tho Legislature, as devised by the
Exocutlvo Committee, will accomplish the
end that was sought to be obtained.
Therefore, no mooting will be held.

THE YELLOW FEVER
Latest ■sports from Savannah.
The train from Savannah last night
brought but few passengers. All with
whom wo conversed were of tho opinion
that the fever was on tho decrease, with
a lar<e falling off in the number of
deaths. A daughter of Edward C. An
derson, Jr, b reported to haro died on
Thursday, and several prominent resi
dents nro mentioned among the now
cases.
The Central railroad authorities, we
were informed, aro conveying, free of
charge, tho poorer classes to and from
Savannah, night and morning—giving
all who desire to do so an opportunity
of sleeping outside tho city. It is
said that a large number avail tbem-
eelves of this well timed generosity,
and that numerous coaches aro required
for their transportation. If this report
be true, it shows very great and consid
erate liberality on the part of tho Central
road..
Wo taka great pleasure in publishing
the following letter frem a well known
gentleman, whoso statements will bo re
ceived without a question:
Savannah, September 7, 1376
FJtier* Telegraph and lltstenger: Hav
ing a largo circle of friends scattered by
tho panic throughout the State, who will
behave my report, allow me tho privi
lege of communicating reliable informa
tion through the columns of yonr wide
extended paper.
They know that I am not located in the
city, hat adjacent to it, and through tho
years of 1H54 and 1858 was an actire
worker in combatting the disease.
On Monday afternoon lost, I came down
to tho city to see for myeelf tho real con
dition of affairs. I found unduo excite
ment existing in the minds of the peo
ple—fear engendered from false reports
and minors which were flying on tho
wings of tho wind. Every one giving
currency to wild rumors and denying tho
truth of the official report?. I quietly
took note ond investigated, and my con
clusion is that no burial has been omitted
in either of the cemeteries adjacent to
the city. On one or two occasions persons
have boen interred late in the evening,
after tho report of that day has been sent
to the Clerk of Council, but they have
invariably appeared on the following day.
The disease is of a mild type, easily
controlled by proper medical treatment,
and when the mind has not been demor
altzed by fear the oatient soon recovers.
But when reason is dethroned, the pby-
cian's skill is of littlo avail.
Destitution has much to do with the
present condition of things. Had an
efficient organization been formed for
supplying tho wants of tho poor and
needy eix weeks ago, and nutritious food
served out to" them, I beliovo much of
the present diseaso and death would have
been avoided. Even now their wants are
only partially supplied.
Council yesterday afternoon appointed
a committee to investigate the causes,
but tht-y are patent to any one. Tho
Springfield plantation on the west, and
tho body of old rice fields on the east,
have been frequoatly overflowed by the
floods of rain Into in tho spring and the
early summer, subject to a temperature
which invaricMy cn~ n ’• re fever, to
gather with a disregard to old sanitary
measures; cleansing cesspools in the ,
heat of tho day ; throwing the offal from
the city within the corporate limits, etc.,
nnder the notion of tbeolcments creating
a poisonous atmosphere.
Disease is produced by a violation of
nature'a laws. When wo learn to pay a
duo regard to them, we may exp.

While the committee was oot the chair
invited any gentleman present to give
any information in hi* posseaaion rela
tive to the sufferings at Savannah—
whereupon Her. G. N. McDonald waa
called for and stated, in substance, that
he had left there Friday last, and was
satisfied that the epidemic was on the
increase and had not yet reached its
climax. There was much suffering pre
vailing among the poorer classes and it
was reaching among the more wealthy
classes, but they had the means to get
away, so that the distress was mostly
confined to the poor.
Major Shellman, agent of the Central
railroad, was called upon, and stated that
ho had no other information of later date
than in the papers, except that which
the conductor on the train to night
brought. It was simply that the people
in Savannah seemed in better spirits and
that it was thought that the fever was
abating.
The Mayor and Chief of Police were
requested to state what load been done
by the city officers in relation to the san
itary condition of the city.
The Mayor replied that he had made
every policeman a health officer for the
last week. All cellars, places of refuse,
etc., were being examined and cleansed.
He thought the city in a cleanly and
healthy condition, and not a single case
of yellow fever here so far, and none ap
prehended. The Council at their next
meeting would appoint a special health
committee, in a scordance with their char
ter, and every precaution will be further
taken to preserve the health of the city.
The committee of nine, through their
chairman. Col. Jemison, presented the
following resolutions:
Resolved, That we, the people of the
city of Macon, hereby extend to the citi
zens of our sister city, Savannah, in this
day of their sore affliction from yellow
fever, the cordial invitation to come
among us, and thereby escape, if possible,
the scourge which is now upon them.
Oar climate is healthful, and we ask
them to oome and make their homes with
us during the present epidemic.
Resolved, That a committee of five
from each ward in the city be appointed
by the Cbair to solicit subscript ions of
money and provisions, to be sent by said
committee to the Benevolent Association
of Savannah, when said Benevolent As
sociation shall indicate the same will be
acceptable or desirable, and that our
country friends be invited to nnite with
us in this good work.
Resolved, That two citizens from each
word be appointed as a board of health,
and that the physicians of the city be re
quested to act with them, and that they
use all possible means to keep our city in
its present healthy condition. Passed.
Mr. Blount movod that a copy of the
resolutions be sent to the Mayor and the
officers of the Benevolent Association of
Savannah, and also to the Txleobapk
and Mxssxnoeb for publication.
Mr. T, D. Tinsley added that a copy
be also sent to the Savannah Morning
Jfine$ for publication—both of which were
carried.

Health Officer.
A very good feeling prevails among all
classes of our citizens, and we trust it
will continue.
Tho Atlanta Constitution of yesterday
contains tho following from Col. Albert
R. Lamar t
Savannah is now being scourged by an
epidemic, which is growing in forco with
little or no prospect of abatement. I am
in receipt of a letter from the head of
the Benevolent Association conveying
the information that money, provisions
and clothing are greatly needed to succor
tho suffering sick. Tho destitution is
great and demands immediate relief.
At the request of the association, which
is using every effort nt its command to
combat the disease and to aid tho sick, I
make this appeal to the people of Geor
gia for aid. Donations of money, pro
visions, especially chickens and fowls,
batter and eggs, and such other food
adapted to sick persons will afford great
relief. I am authorized to say that the
Central railroad and all its branches and
the State road will transport all articles
donated to the sick free of charge. AH
packages should bo directed to J. F
Wheaton, Chairman of the Benevolent
Association, Savannah, Georgia.

Pnblic Meeting of the Citizens of
Macon.
In pursuance of a proclamation issued
by His Honor, tho Mayor, a large gath
ering of citizens representing all classes
of business assembled at the Council
Chamber last night to consider what
course should be adopted, looking to the
relief of the sufferers in Savannah from
the fatal epidemic prevailing there, and
also the security of our own sanitary
condition.
On motion, Mr. John W. Burke was
called to the chair, and Mr. J. W. Caba-
nits elected Secretory.
On motion, the Mayor was called on to
give what information he possessed in
relation to the subject and express any
views he entertained.
Mayor Huff advised the appointment
of a relief committee to act in conjunc
tion with tbe Benevolent Association in
Savannah, and render them ail the assist
once in their power. Also a committee
to look after' the sanitary condition of
our own city. The action cf these com
mittees could be independent of tbe <
action of Council, who would consider
their duty in the matter and act upon it
at their regular meeting next Tuesday
night. The editorial in the local column
of the Telegraph and Messenger, ac

HEAXXT, BLOOMIEa WIDOW.
Marietta. Ga., March 9,1870.
Messes. Bradfixld a Co.—Gentleman: Tot
will please ship us another supply of your inval
uable Female Regulator, and forward bill by mail.
We are happy to state that this remedy gives
better satisfaction than any articld we sell.
We have been selling it since 1868. and witnessed
m any remarkable cures by it. Among others, these
was a lady friend of ours who was saliow and
sickly until she was twenty-six years old, when
she waa married. Her husband lived two years
and died. She continued in bad health: in fact,
she has never been what a woman ought to be.
A few months alter the death of her husband,
she saw yonr advertisement, and came to our
store and bought a bottle of yonr Regulator from
ns. and took it according to directions. It baa
cured her sound and well, brought her regular
monthly periods on. and to-day she is a hearty,
blooming wicow—with the use of bat two bot
tles of your Regulator, costing her only three
dollars, when she had tried several physicians
and spent a great deal of money without any
benefit. Wishing you great success with your
valuable remedies, we are, respectfully yours, etc.,
