To show that too loug buried dead
have not been forgotten by tbeir fi lends,
to writer in an early murniug stroll be
fore tbe sun bad appeared above the hor-
■eon, encountered a man in this neglect-
-d cemetery haid at work, with coat off
and hoe in baud, filling up an ugly hole
•n the grave of a child Asimpie head
and foot stone gavo tbe name aud nativ
ity of the deceased and tba date of Die
burial—1837. He had filled tne c-vuy
with brick and wae restoring the moiino
over tue remains of a little brotner, who
forty-two years ago had been iaid to rear
among strangers. How stoutly did h-
dig into tne impacted c ay aul delily
mould and smooth the newly made grave
over thu cherished infant brother wboce
bones bad long since mingled with their
kindred dust.
What stronger argument oonld bs ad
daced to enforce tbe appeal in behalf of
this neglscted “city of tbe dead.”
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
At present trie community is much
exercised upon tbe question of inaugu
rating a system of free schools t-imilar to
those in operation at Macon, Savannah,
and other cities of Georgia.
The majority of the citizens favor the
measure, and are hard at work striving
to raise the cecest&ry funds by Voluntary
contributions. As yet tbe problem has
not been solved. A respectable and influ
ential minority oppose the measure on
be ground of tbo increased taxation nec
essary to maintain these schools, at d
same go so far even us to doubt the pro-
Druty and utility of tbeir establishment.
We tiu-f, however, that tbe free school
sentiment will prevail. Bat for these
primary gatnerings for in->lruclion sup
plemented in the cities by schools or a
n'gher order, the present generation,
white and b'ack, would be now strug
gliog in a very

Since the war the mass of the people
at.Yd been too poor to educate their chil
dren. To piovtdo tor their phyeiod
wants whs the first and most imperative
da y. We are rejoiced to state, however,
ibst every year *iinesse3 an addition or
many thousands to tbe roll of pupils in
Georgia seeking the b:vsaing9 ot educa
tion. To attempt to deny this preoioua
barn to oar former servants, who are cow
pod.eased of equal rights with ourseiv-8,
would be a great mistake. In ancient Sptr-

July 8.—The excitement ia the grain
market increased to-day and wheat has
further advanced in price from two to

whether or not the rise is a healthy one.
It is what may be termed a “crop scare,”
and has arisen from tbe reports of bud
weather in Europe and in tbe West.
Should the reports be confirmed within
a few days it is very probable tbat tbe
nrebent priees may be even further ad
vsneed. and that wheat and oorn will b:

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
P AIN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure ; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The stom
ach is affected with loss of appetite
and sickness; the bowels in general
are costive, sometimes alternative with
lax; the head is troubled with pain,
accompanied with a dull, heavy sen
sation in the back part. There is gen
erally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight,
dry cough is sometimes an attendant.
The patient complains of weariness
and debility; he is easily startled, his
feet are cold or burning, and he com
plains of a prickly sensation of the
skin; his spirits are low; and although
he is satisfied that exercise would be
beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try it.
In fact, he distrusts every remedy.
Several of the above symptoms attend
the disease, but cases have occurred
where few of them existed, yet exam
ination of the body, after death, has
shown the liver to have been exten
sively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
Dr. C. McLane's Liver Pills, im
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, are productive of
the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them a fair trial.
For all bilious derangements, and
as a simple purgative, they are un
equaled.
BEWARE OF IMITATIONS.
The genuine are never sugar coated.
Every box has a red wax seal on the
lid, with the impression Dr.. McLane’s
Liver Pills.
The genuine McLane’s Liver Pills
bear the signatures of C. McLane and
Fleming Bros, on the wrappers.
Insist upon having the genuine Dr.
C. McLane’s Liver Pills, prepared by
Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., the
market being fall of imitations of the
name McLane, spelled differently but
same pronunciation.
