Next to the ticking at nothing, is that of “kick- (he pricks," which Scripture partic- f warns us not to do. Therefore we are rting into hysterics over negro officials of * t JLpostmasters or Legislators.

To meet interest due next week, it would require jgshh this amount of collateral, of which $200, he mold be lost without hope.

Tee CiTEErn-T.An in Florida.—A commission borne in this city, says the Charleston Courier of Tuesday, received yesterday a letter from one of the most respectable and experienced plant- ers in East Florida, dated Ellisville Postoffice, Cohunhia county, Flo., June 23, in which the writer says: “There is no doubt about the cat erpillar being here, though they are doing ho harm as yet; bnt they are here and have webbed in some places, bnt in small quantities. The fly can be seen almost anywhere. I do fear that they will take the present crop. If so, I don't tee what will become of the people.” Ike Wheat Tease.—The World says that at he Western markets there were delivered, in (our weeks of June, 1868, 230,768 barrels flour ad 1,(93,937 bushels wheat. During the cor- -pending four weeks of June, 1869, 458,268 Uriels of flour and 5,664,910 bushels of wheat were received at the same markets—that is to ay three times as much wheat and nearly twice u much flour. The law as relates to the time of maturity of Bank paper, falling due on Sunday, July 4, 1859, and published on yesterday, upon exam ination, we And is a New York statute. The rules governing at Banks in this city is, that notes maturing Sunday, July 4th, are due Satur day, July 3d. Betted than the Presidency.—A land suit has just been decided in a Chicago court by which ex-Govemor Seymour comes in for a share of a million of dollars. This is better than the Presidency. Besides, while the money is sure to make friends, the Presidency is sure to make enemies. Old Rip Van Wksle.—Civilization is ad vancing in North Carolina. At Charlotte, the other day, they had a gander-pulling, the gal lant knights riding at the game on velocipedes. The Knight of Persimmons carried off the head, and enthroned the Queen of Love and Beauty upon the inverted slush-tnb, and crown ed her with a gourd. Cobb County.—The New Era learns from a gentleman in Cobb, that cropB in his section were good. The people are about done gather ing a generous yield of wheat. Com is gener ally clean and is growing well. The people have got their farms well reconstructed and are be ginning to live comfortably again. The Mormons make headway in England; ‘nd at Sheffield, under the auspices of Elder Hyde, many converts have been secured among •I* cutlers. The working classes of Sheffield include many artisans of a speculative disposi- li*o, whose hard lot makes them anxious to em- brace any project or religion that promises to Utter their fortunes. Site fob a New Executive Mansion.—The "Islington correspondent of the Cincinnati Qttette says: Tho President and members of Hi* Cabinet have been looking over the ground 1* find a site for a new Executive Mansion which cube recommended to Congress, and are nn- -uriood to be substantially agreed upon a loca- fi® in the northwestern part of the city. The Confederate Dead.—The Confederate fi**d are being removed from the .Chickamauga Uttle field and re-interred in the Confederate ^ttetery at Marietta. The Journal says that *Uut two hundred bodies arrived there during Buy Weather in Atlanta.—The Intelli- iiacer, of Wednesday, regrets to say that tho ^i*a are getting brassy, and that vegetation 'Unit the city begins to show the effects of dry leather; the streets, too, are disagreeable to **4 through, on account of dust. A Large Collection.—The Chicago Republi- Cin says that seventy thousand dollars were col lected last Sunday in the Unitarian Church of that city, to pay the debts of. the Church. Stillman S. Conant is to be successor of Mr. Raymond as editor-in-chief of the Times. He aa« long held the position of managing editor m the Times establishment. South Carolina Wheat.—The first sale of nth Carolina Wheat of this crop was made in Baltimore on the 2Gth nit., at $1,10.

J Business and trade generally have been quite dnll in this market during the week ending this evening, and we have little or nothing to report al much in terest to commercial circles or the general reader. Money continues easy and the banks readily dis count all good paper at quoted rates of interest. During the past week but very little paper of any description has been presented for discount, as the busy season is about over and large amounts of money are no longer required to move cotton or any other produce. The stock and bond market has been rather quiet during the week and we have heard of no heavy transactions. The better class of this land of se curities is in moderate demand, and prices are al most wholly without change since the date of our last weekly review of the market.

The receipts for the week ending this evening, the above included, were 63 bales; sales for same time 47; shipments 54—showing an increase of re ceipts the past week over those of the week before of 17 bales; decrease of sales 132 bales. The market has been steady and firm nearly all the week, and prices have lqoked upward most of the time. Operations, however, have beenextieme- ly light, owing altogether to the light offering stock. Indeed there is bnt little cotton in this market to offer at any price.

Excepting the articles of com and bacon we have no change to make in quotations to-day. Since last week's review, com has advanced in this market about 8 cents per bushel, and the ten dency is still strongly upward. Bacon has been weak and declining under a light demand all the week, and has fallen off fully 1 cent per pound daring that time. Flour is weak and dull aud prices are slowly de scending.

The Sandersville Central Georgian of the 30th nit., says: Refreshing showers of rain have visited dif ferent parts of this county during the last few days. The com crop, generally, is very good. This crop is now made, so far as work is con cerned, and a few more seasonable showers will put the bread question beyond a preadventure, at least in Washington county. A farmer from Johnson reports the crop in that county better than for many years. Com, he says is very promising. The truth of the matter is, people have learned that one acre well tilled and properly manured i3 better than five without manure and poorly cultivated.— There will probably be no greater yield of cot ton than ordinarily of a good crop year, not as mnch perhaps, as in the olden time—but it will be gathered from a much smaller area of land. The com crop will doubtless be larger, in this part of Georgia, than since 1861. The prospect for a supply of bacon, aocording to our obser vation, is iso, better than usual. We hear of no hog cholera, and but little depredation by “hunters.” If our political matters could only “simmer down” to a proper position, Georgia, at least would be on the high road to fortune. Mb.

All other Compounds or Syrups of tb/s Root have hitherto failed to command the sanctiolof theFaeul ty. because on being tested, they havebeen found to contain soxions ingredients, which neutralize the good effects of the Sarsaparilla, and oftintimes injure the health of the patient. It is not so vith Hurley’s preparations. f This is the pure and genuine extract »f the root, and will, ontnai, be fonnd to eflecta certain and perfect cure of the following complaints: Affections of the Bones, HaMtunl Cositlve* ness, Debility, Diseases of the Kidneys. Dlspepsia, Kryalpelas, Female Irreg ularities, Fistula, >11 Skin Di.easca; Liver Complaint, Indigestion, Piles. Pul monary Diseases, Scrofula, or King’s Evil. Syphilis, and all Impurities of the Blood. Hurley’s Ague Tonic. PERFECTLY RELIABLE. The only remedy for Chills and Fever, or Ague and Fever, that is or can be depended upon, is HUR- LEY.S AGUE TONIC. There have been thousands cured by using it who have tried the nsual remedies without benefit. WO&TBZ or ATTENTION. To Dr. That. A. Hurley: I hereby certify that during last year I was attack ed With the Ague whilst in Vicksburg, MisE., and used several popular medicines with but temporary relief. On reaching home the disease returned in a worse type, if possible, when my medical attendant ordered Qui nine in large doses— frequently as high as sixty grains per day. and which must have cost me nearly 8100. I consulted Dr. fcmith, of Louisville, and found he prescribed quinine and arsenic combined, which I refused to take, preferring to let the disease take its course. I was almost bloodness, extremely exhausted, and pronounced with largo Liver and Spleen. Abont this time the advertisement of Hurley’s Ague Tonio appeared in a city paper, and I determined to give it atrial. I did so, and have no reason to regret it. One bottle restored me completely, andsince that time I have seen nearly a hundred cases in which it acted with equally happy results, and would certainly recommend it as. preferable to any other tonic before the public.

It is almost universally the practice of State Governments to relieve from taxation the cap ital invested in material necessarily employed in the printing and publishing of books, magazines, news papers, etc., and Whereas, A proper construction of the present stat utes of force in this State will not permit an exemp tion for taxation for capital so employed.

T»HE attention of the public is specially inTited to A the unparalleled claims of these celebrated and popular Springs. To those who have visited them they need no recommendation. But a uniform ex perience of more than ten years having fully demon strated their superior virtues, demands that their merits should be more widely known, and their ben efits more largely extended. Hundreds ot visitors can testify to their healing efficacy and their wonderful medicinal properties. In some instances their effects upon enfeebled, emaciated systems, and delicate con stitutions of both sexes, have been almost miraculous. Tho following signal advantages of these Springs over all other watering places will commend them selves to all intelligent minds: 1st. They are located in the corporate limits of the city of Newnan, one of the most healthy, pleasant and delightful towns in Georgia. Here there are ex cellent Schools, Churches and social advantages un surpassed anywhere. The people are genial, polite, cultivated and refined. The ladies of Newnan can not be surpassed by any community. 2d. These Springs are directly accessible by rail road : within a few hundred yards of the Atlanta and W eat Point K aitroad. This will save Hack and Coach fare, and the inconvenience of transportation to re mote rural districts. There is. aIso t a Telegraph Offioe, which will pat visitors in daily and hourly communication with their homes in the cities. 3d. Board can be obtained at two excellent hotels, or in pleasent private families, at from $25 to $30 per month, which is less than half tbe average of board at other popular waterin g places. The facilities for good fare are equal to any in the country. 4th. As to the mineral waters themselves, they need onl.v to be tested to satisfy any unprejudiced mind of their superior merits. Their medicinal effects will be experienced immediately. They are a powerful tonic; giving a good appetite and building up an en feebled constitution from the commencement of their use. 5th. Add to all these considerations the advantages of polite and pleasant society; a wonderfully bracing and salubrious climate: many sources of pleasant re creation. and the fact that Newnan is one of the best and cheapest retail markets (for every variety of goods) in the South, and it may be safely affirmed that no place can present such au array of attractions to visitors as this. iWeaskbut a trial to satisfy any one. Those wishing a choice of homes should be sure to come early, as we expect to be crowded with visi tors during the season. For particulars address HUGH BREWSTER, iune29-10t* Mayor.
