Kca Bathing
Extravagant ideas are entertniied by
n->ty persons of tbe practical kcalt.i re-
storing tcflacnoe of tbe salt water, and
some coffer iojory by over-application.
Tho Tribune, in an article upon tho wa
tering place*, quotes from old seaside
physicians So below, whose suggestion*
may be opportune:
“The old idea that nobody can catch
cold, either in or out of tbe water at the
seashore, has been exploded long ago in
the minds of phyticians of any experience
along onr coast, and shoolil be extirpated
from the minds of the pnblio as eoou as
possible. A ebort bath onco or twice a
Week may be n good tonic in some cases,
if it is enjoyed; bnt as for staying in the
sort until oars and lips, as well as fingers
and toes, are livid, aa many, chiefly wo
men. do, it is self-evident Wat catarrh of
all kinds must prevail among seaside ba
thers, aa in fact auoh diseases do. Fine
swimmers remain in tbe aorf, as ia well
known, forhonre. Not long since the wri
ter waa conanUed by oneof the beet phe
nomenal awimmer3 who had remained one
hour and forty minutes, swimming up
and down the surf at Cape May. The
rnrf vus nigh and the water cold—it was
Jane; and the result of this indulgence
was a severe infl&mmatioa of tho drum,
for tbe water had entered the ear most
exposed to the direction of the surf, con
stantly and with gome discomfort to the
patient while in the water. In all cases
of seaside bathing, if it ia likely that tbe
head ot the bather ia going under the
surface of the water, tbe ear should be
protected by cotton held in position by
an oiled silk cap. After coming from the
bath, peoole are too apt to fitt abont in
draughU.the ladi-a taking this opportu.
nity to dry tbeir hair. Tnia practice
leads constantly to colda, and not uncom
monly to earache. The aeaaide is the
place where perhaps one most j.easily
takes cold in all parts of the body.”
Memphis.—The Nashville American
says the first case of fever in Memphis waa
announced on the 10:h inat. Since then,
np to G o'clock last evening, (28th) there
have been 172 cosra and 6-1 deaths—or a
ratio of leas than one death to three eases.
List year the mortality averaged two and
two-tenths deaths to every three cases.
Tbe Coarleston News, comparing the
progress of tho fevar in Memphis with
that of last year, saya it began, in 1878,
tbirty-oeven days later, to-wit: on the
lGth day of August, whilo this year the
first case was on tho 10th day of July.
The bills of mortality comparo as fol
lows:
lit Woek. 2nd Week. 3d Week. Total*.
1878. 5, IS, 21. 42.
1879. B, 2*. 45, 74.
As tho population of Memphis ia now
soarcely 1G.OOO, of whom only -1,000 are
white, and more than half of these piss
ed through the epidemic of last year, it
is hardly to bo doubted that the compar
ative mortality will soon display a widely
different aspect. Moreover, although tho
reports by telegram, having heretofore
been msdo at different hours in tha day,
and no donbt often duplicating parts of
adty, make a total nareliable, yet ws
presnme that of tha American ia more
lik’ ly to bo correct than that of tho News
and Courier. We still hope and believe
that the yellow fevar visitation of 1879
will ba light compared with that of last,
year.
A Wet Bljlnkxt.—On what seems to
have been a test vote tsknn in Ibe House
on tbo motion to reoommit to tbo F.
nonce Committee tbe bill to oreate tbe
office of State Gsologiit sad to provide
far a mioeralogioal survey of tbo State,
eto., eta., the yeas were 61, nays 63
showing a majority of nine who are wii
ling, wo fear, to abolish a bnrean which
though in its infancy, has done so muoh
to develop North Georgia and inoresse
Ibe tax roll of tbs commonwealth.
Tbia is not enlightened legislation, and
so tbo people of the State willproDoance.
Ou the oontrary it is a disgraceful going
back upau previous progress, and
henceforward oar rich oret and mineral
deposits must oxatiane to slumbor in the
bowels of tho earth, unless secretly pros
pered and discovered by interested ex.
pert*, who will, as in days past, continue
to purchase from tbo ignorant owners tbeir
uluable possessions nt mere nominal fig
ures.
So also the important industry of
sheep husbandry will have no protection
from ravening dogs, albeit if the ven
omons curs were taxed,two great aims
would be accomplished, to-wit: The
raisiogof a largo sum to help educate
tho ignorant children of Georgia, and a
heavy addition to tho wool product o:
the country.
Bat there is no use complaining. Only,
we tras!, onr law givers get through as
soon as possible and go home. That will
be a great saving to the State.
Imposts nt Htoiinic Obder.—It will
bo seen in another column that onr effi
cient Board of Health, by authority of
tbs Oity Council, has ordered an officer to
visit and inspect tho privato premises of
every house within the corporate limits of
Macoo.
Some might feel inclined to object to
this searching process, but in no other
way can the work of removing nuisances
and insuring absolute cleanliness be ac
oomplished. A single fool water sink
or pile of decaying garbage may be the
prolifio eonreo of the spores and seeds
which will call into existence the dead
’ieat maladies. Unless armed with the
authority of the law, no investigation can
be thoroughly made. Tnere aro always
some persons disposed to reseat such vis-
Rations as invasions of their rights. But
tbe pnblio safety must not b? pltcod in
jeopardy by tha contumacy and opposi
tion of a few malcontents.
Wo hope, therefore, that this sanitary
work will l>o efficiently and conscientious
lr done.
Macon, with her broad streets, lofty
hills and perfect drainage, with even or
dinary preciutions, need never fear to bt
visited by any malarial epidemic. Every
citizen should earnestly oo-operata with
tne Boa-d of Health in carrying into ef
fect all of its sanitary regnlittons. •
CHEinisE Nillson—A Lend >n corr.s-

year. Tbe great songstress went into a
burst of enthusiasm over this country
and styled it “tbo greatest and most
beautiful country in the world.” Accord

Hail in London with ease—a feat which

however, a transfer of property has been
made sufficient to secure the mill.

health of the cotton plant in tb.se rainy
times. The plant which had been pant
ing in dry dost beds for a couple of

WE find the following particulars of
the capture and confession of Asa Mor
gan, one of the Dcfoor murderers, in the
Atlanta Posfr .
At onoe “Lee,” one of Mr. Kreis’ blood
houtdt, was pnt upon the trail and before
long he struck it and began to ran it
down with a vim. No sooner did tbe
dog open than the negro, who was seat
ed near by, began a race for life and
one which continued four hours end ten
minutes, and cohered about fiiteen miles
of ground. Exhauatation finally com
pelled the negro to quit the race and at
tempt to bide himself. Upon Mr. Lee’s
place there is a gin-honse and near it a
large pile of straw, and it was this which
offered the negro a temporary haven ot
rest, atd here ’twas that he was oiught.
Wnen tne pnrauera came up to tho gin-
bouse, they found “Lee” circling aroand
but in no way disposed to leave the
straw pile. Mr. Kreis became satisfied
from the dog’s actions that tho negro
was secreted in the straw -tack, and so
said, but others thought that both Mr.
Kreis and the dog were at fault. So
thoroughly satisfied waa Mr. Kreis that
he began to search the straw for the fu
gitive. Before he hid been long ou the
pile he heard some one say. “YouVo got
tho wrong man. I’m not the man. ’ At
first the voice somewhat startled the
valiant pursuer, but soon ho was down
iu the Straw grappliog with the negro.
After a hird snuggle tho negro finally
gave up and was b d off to an adjacent
nouse in wnich the officers wished to es
cape the rain. Dating their eisy here
tney held constant conversation with tne
negro, and little by little he implicated
himself in the terrible deed for which he
mast sooner or liter pay tho penalty.
His confeasona was abont ns follows
“He and another negro from Butts coun
ty met a white man at Defoor’s Ferry on
Thursday last, and that they then laid
ihe plan and remained in tho neighbor
hood until Friday evening, wheD, whilst
the old conple were out milking, the
white man went in tho house and up
stairs and secreted himself until old man
Defoor and his wife were asleep, when he
oamo down and opened the back door
and let the two negro men in.
Tney then went to tho blacksmith shop
and procuted a hammer. Afterwards he
wentmross tho street and got the axe
with which the deed was done. He held
the limp, tho other negro watched at the
door, and the white man did the cutting.
After their bloody work nad been com
plated they went through the chest,
trunks, eto., and got “lota of money.’’
Tne next morning they were sitting
down and had just begun a division of
tbe money, wnen the dogs wmch had
been pnt ou them by the officers broke in
and they separated. Since that time ho
has not Been any of the other parties, al
though he gave Captain Starnes a very
accurate description of both.
Asa Morgan, as he calls himself, is a
burly looking negro of about five feet six
inches, and will weigh about 180 pounds.
Ha is of a ginger-bread color and a pow
erfully-built negro. His chest is broad
and foil, and when seen oauscs almost ft
fear to creep unsuspectingly over the ob
server.

Micod, 3d February, 1S26.
Wo learn that it was tho custom in
olden times to “draw” for partners for
the evening, and the lady who waadrawa

rules of propriety and courtesy to have
no other until the party was over.

xo years old that day, bnt had voted

idle tsie bnt an actasl fact. How can

voters as these?”
Otto of enr Southwestern Geergia ex
changes pathetically remarks, “there

Alex. Scarborough and Tim Wagnon
of Bibb ecunty, have just been discharged

The Rev. W. 0. Williams, rector of
Sr. Peters Episcopal Church, at Rome,
has resign-d that charge, and his resig.
nation his been accepted.
A Bold Jump.—The Newnan Herald
says last Monday morning as “tbe train
from Carroltoa was coming towards this
place. Roe, who it wiir be remembered by
many of our readers, was charged with
the killing of a Mr. Limbart in Haral
son county about two years ago and who
was tried at the list term of tbe Superior
Court of said county, leaped from a win
dow of a pisienger coach when the tram
stopped at toe Chattahoochee river to
take on freight, and made his escape.
The guard pursued him a short distance
but the pursuit was frni-leas. He had
Leen sentenced to the p uitentiary for
life, and was in charge of two peii en-
ttary guards.”
Thb Sivsonih negroes celebrated tbe
Independence of Liberia list Monday and
the News informs ns there was “an im
mense turnout and no serious disturb
ance.”
The Columbus Tints* oomes oat strong
ly tn favor of the sale by Ihe Stite of all
her railway property when fair priosg con
be obtained. It bates its remark* upon
the statement that W. B. A*tor and other
New York men seek to purchase the Ma
con and Brnuswiok road, and goes on tc
say:
Perhaps tho prioo named may not be a
fair one, but advertise It and sell it at
ontcry, and it no one else will pay more,
let it go at tbe million and a quarter dol
lars, snd with tho proceeds ot sale p*y
off a corresponding amoant of the State’s
dent. Tfae income from the road, taking
ihe amount received for toe last quarter,
by the average, is now $40,000 per yew,
though it is said that parlies will rent it
and give §70.000 per year for it. We
suppose they would; but even that would
not be so favorable a disposition of it as
it wonid be to sell it for $1,250,000.
It is, we think, very doubtful poiioy
on the part of a State to owe heavy deb-s
and tax her people to ply installments
and interest, when she has property
enough, if sold, to pay her debts and atop
the tsx and interest. Mr. Renfroe, the
State Treasurer, sty a the State could, by
selling out Iter stocks, pay her debts and
owe nothing. Wo are in favor of this
policy—not only because it is a sound
policy—not only because it is a sound
policy io itself, but beoause the long ex -
perience of the State in these matters
has shown conclusively that she cannot
manage them with financial success.
Wo say, then, sell the Macon & Bruns
wick road, and if purchasers want to
extend it to Atlanta, if satisfactory
arrangements for freight and passage
cannot ba m ide with the Mxcon and
Western road, let them have a charter to
extend it.
Gubernatorial Gossip at thb Capi
tol.—It nxn3 as follows, according to
Maj. Orme of the Savannah llicorder,
who writes in a late letter, to- .oil:
As to the Gubernatorial question, we
have talked with a number ot gentlemen.
Wo aro satiefied if Southern Georgia is at
all & unit as to some man from that sec
tion, and that man ba General A. S
Lawton, he will be the strongest man so
far named. We would rattier have his
chances to-day than any man that has
been spoken of. General Gartrell has
some strong frietda. Jadge Martin J,
Crawford, of Columbna, has popularity.
We like his face, and wo read a rnin’i
oharacter in his face. We had a few min
utes talk with him at the K-.mhall and he
impressed ns favorably aa a good man.
Bat we have no disguise in tbu mat
ter. We are (or a min from onr section
of tbo State, ac a sectional right. We
have not had a Governor for over sixty
years, and sectional pride demands that
wa should have. Cherokee is always talk
ing about her rights, and we “sorter'
feel that it is abont time to blow bard
and long our sectional born. If a man
does not respect himself, how can he as-
others to respect him ?
If. however, we cxnsot get General
Lxwton, or Lester, or some good man
from Southern Georgia, then we are for
Hon. Augustas Reese, of Madison, Ga
In our opinion, one of the very best men
in Georgia, a gentleman of decided orig
inality. A gentleman who would be gov
ernor in evoty sense of tho word.
Aa to Governor Colquit’, four years
iocgenongb, no matter how good or in
different a Governor be may have made.
As to abase or rtflaolions upon bis ad
ministration, ho mast expect that. To
try to please everybody would he to de-
cl»re himself s weak men and a dema
gogue. Decided men hove decided ene
mies, and yonr good, essy men, indiffer
ent friends or no friends at all, yet no
positive enemies.
As to the cipitol question, that is, tbe
building of a new oapitcl, it would be
folly at this time to entertaia suan an
idea. The present buddies will do,
though as to structure, location and real
comfort, it Is no more fit for a cipitol
than tbe old eapltol at Mtllodgcville
would tie for and insane asylum. It oould
be made to do, bat is not built for each
purposes.

Colorado.
To*N3, Ga , July 18. 1879.
Editors Telegraph and messenger:—On
my return from Lesdville, Colorado, I
promised to give yon en account ot the
place and surroundings. A long pro.-tra
tion by sickness has prevented a fulfill
ment ot the promise until now.
The phenomenal city is located obent
140 miles southwest of Denver oa a geo
de dope or incline, in a small park, at an
altitude of 10.247 feet, and near the
head waters of iha Arkansas river, eur-
roandei by au immense chain of mono-
tato peaks covered with perpetual snow.
This locality was known to tbe Oolora-
do miner for some years as “California
Gnich," a small stream flowing from tbe
mountains a few miles above Loadvilte,
aod receiving as its tribo aries before
reaching this ootnt several sm ill streams,
or as we would call them here, oreeks or
trinehes. All these streams and bottoms
have been worked for years as free gold
plaoer mines, and where Leedvdls is now
located was old “Slabtowo,” the mining
camp or headquarters for all this sec
tion. There are two passible roates to
the place, the most practicable is from
Denver via tbe South Park railroad to the
am.nit of Stenoabee Mountain, tbence
by stage a distance of sixty-five miles,
The railroad ride on this
rente ie simply grand, and
awe-m’piring, followms np canons, roam
ing through ravines, curves and reverse
curvet—tbe train frequently doubling
up onto itself, presenting an imaginary
phenomenal danger of a rear oollistcn in
to itself, now darting through aspnr and
again under perpendicular walls tower
ing thousands of feet above, with an an
gry, dashiog stream far beneath. No
sun-light, nothing bnt the weird shadows
and damp atmosphere of these immense
canons and the ratling.-heavy exhaust ot
the monster engine echoing and re-
echoing ite every jar and pulsation, from
wall to wall, nniil its scmmnlated deaf
ening clatter becomes almost unoearable.
Tne other ronte is from Pueblo via Can
on City, thence following the valley of the
Arkansas river about 110 miles.
The freighting into and from Lsadville
is immense, and tariff high, both roates
being literally lined with teams, taking in
sop; lies of all kinds for bniiding and rop-
porticga city, and bringing cut the pro
duct cf the mines.
The city now contains over fifteen
thrn-and population, is well built, and ell
branches of industry end trade prosper
ous.
Money'is extremely abundant; the im
mense freighting industry scatters it like
chaff; the lucky prospector who has re
ceived his thousands for his fortunate
bit puts no value on his fabulous pile,
but to waste in saloons, gambling dens
and dance houses. This wasteful prodi
gal propensity becomes oontigions to sn
alarming extent, but of course the more
prudent ani economical inclined profit
by other’s excesses and reap a corres
ponding benefit.
I will drop back to the days of placer
mining, !r*s than three years ago. At
that lime VY. A. H. Tabor, now Lieuten
ant Governor of the Stats, owned a email
store near the present city of Leadville,
his whole stock being less than $500 in
value. A poor impecunious miner named
August Rtchie called on and solicited aid
of Tabor in the way of a prospector’s
outfit, consisting of tools and miner’s
provisions, proa ising Tabor one-half of
his findings. The result was an imme
diate accidental finding and locating of
the “Little Pittsburg” lode. Up to this
time no one had even dreamed of tbe
immense wealth lying in the immediate
vicinity. Richie soon sold bis half of the
mine forthe sum of $360,009. and Tabor
one half of his interest for $250,000.
Tois is considered the richest mino in
the Camp, and is tc-lay valued at $10,-
000,000. Rich diecoveries followed in
rapid eurcc-sion; among them may bs
named "Carbonate,” “The Iron” “Doub
le Decker,” “Jodeo Petdiing,” ‘-Dun
can,” “Long & Derry,” “Printer Boy,”
“Robt. E Lie," and valuable strikei are
being made almost daily. The ores from
these mine* assay from eighty to one
tbonsaid ounces per ton, and some of
them carrying a fair t>er cent, of gold,
“tha Printer Boy” biing the richest
go:d mine yet discovert il. The whole
bowels of tha mountains seem to be one
vast and exhaustless deposit of carbonates
of lead and stiver. Instances almost in
numerable could be named, of an instan
taneous leap from extreme poverty to
fabulous wealth almost rivaling tha fas
cinating tales of the “Arabi in Nights.”
LcadviUe is to fiction—it ia a
living, phenomenal reality — eclipses
tbe Comstock in its palmiest
days; harries deep in its shadows any
Mexican or Peruvian mining of which
bistory makes.record. Itisnotxagg r 5
turn to say there are many mines m which
can be seen from ono to three million dol
lars worth of ore in sight. Ia passing
through the different leads, drifts, and
wings, the walls on either side shins and
glisten like so much solid silver, and all
these va3t riches were trampt and worked
over for several years before their acci
dental discovery.
Leadville is a city of no mean preten
tions. It has most of the luxuries and
convenieuoeB of an Eastern metropolis,
and it is, aft? to say there never was each
a place of approximating age before on
the continent. The oity is built mostly
of wood, a lew brick buildings aro being
erected. There are over 200 drinking
saloons, some half dozen or more dance
houses, and, as for gambling quarters,
they would be difficult of enumeration.
They are thrown open to tho public
without any attempt at concealment.
The city ia well supplied with hotels and
restaurants and tho tables aro cot surpass
ed anywhere in quality or quantity. There
are Eeveral well built and commodious
churches, with efficient and able preach;
era. They have a regular and good city
government, a well organized fire and
police eystem, together with efficient
water works. Tne professions are all
represented, and the opportunities for
new comer are not flittering.
With all the vast mineral deposits here
in mentioned, it must ere long pile be
fore the mineral resources of sou-.hsesfc
ern Colorado, or what is known as Son
Juan, which is undoubtedly the richest
mineral belt on the continent, but eo far
its minerals have not been so concentrated
as abont Lssdvillo. San Juan is doubt
less much the safest place for investments
as tbe mineral croze has no firm hold
there yet. Some of our luckiest Load
vdle men are now investing in San Juan
notably among them Mr. Tabor, the
Lieutenant Governor of tho State. The
latureot the country can only be conjao
tured.
The mountains are as yet scarcely
scratched—the prospecting has been
mostly superficial. No advantages ^ of
railroads, which aro now rapidly working
their way into tbe utmost recesses of the
mountains and ravines, supplying the
mines with fuel for smelting nnd reduc
tion, redacing freights immensely, ex
pediting every industry, furnishing la
borers at reasonable wages, facilitating
exchanges together with the long line of
benefits to be derived from prompt aud
efficient commnnication.
I have thus given you an outline of
Leadville as at present. Its future, as
well as that of all Southwest Colorado, is
glit’ering, fascinating and attractive as
far sb the Iovm of excitement and a ven.
turesome spirit could influence. One go.

Temperance is attracting mnch atten
tion, Ehowing itself in local option laws,
societies, ern-ades and restrictions upon
liquor production; but with all these
eff-rte, the consumption is enormone,
and, undoubtedly, the reason is, because
there i3 nothing strenuously advocated to
relieve and destroy the craving for stim
ulants. But, if tbe disease was treated
rationally, by arousing the torpid liver
with Simmon’s Liver Regulator, the dis
pirited drunkard would soon find his
cravings soon di-sipated, and with cleared
head and active liver, he would not want

Ague Cure
Is a purely vegetable bitter and powerful
tonic, ami is warranted a speedy and cer
tain cure for Fever and Ague, C hills
and Fever. Intermittent or Chill
Fever, Remittent Fever. Dumb Ague,
Periodical or llilious Fever, and all
malarial disorders. Iu miasmatic dis
tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue,
thirst, lassitude, loss of appetite, pain iu
the back and loins, and coldness of the
spine ami extremities, are only premoni
tions of severer symptoms which termin
ate in the ague paroxysm, succeeded by
high fever ami profuse perspiration.
It is a startling fact, that quinine, ar
senic, and other poisonous minerals form
the basis of most of the 44 Fever ami Ague
Preparations,” 44 Specifics,” “Svrups,’*
and “Tonics,” in the market. The prep,
nrations made from these mineral poisons,
although tliev sire palatable, ami may
break the chill, do not cure, hut leave tlif
malarial ami their own drug poison j.i
the system, producing quinism, dteanesy
rimjriiig in the cars, headache, vertigo, amf.
other disorders moro formidable than
the disease they were intended to cure.
Aveu’s Ague Cure thoroughly eradicates
these noxious poisons from the system,
and always cures the severest cases. I*
contains no quinine, mineral, or any tiling
that cviuld injure tho most delicate pa
tient; and its crowning excellence, abovo
its certainty to cure, is that it leaves tho
system as free from disease as before tho
attack.
For Liver Complaints, Ayer’s Ar.ru
Cure, by direct action on the liver ami
biliary apparatus, drives out the poisons
which produce these complaints, and
stimulates tho system to a vigorous,
healthy condition.
Wo warrant it when taken according
to directions.
