MACON FRIDAY, JULY 23, 1869.
Scarcity of labor.
Whoeter ha* been indulging in that delusive
'talk about the scarcity of labor, should have
spent five- second* (not more) in the Court of
he United -State .Commissioner yesterday, and
noted, for that length of time, the surroundings
of the Turner examination. ’From two to three
.'hundred able bodied negroes looked on all day,
and half as many more were gathered on the
. pavement outside speculating on the course of
. events. From two to three thousand bales of
cotton lay in the muscles of those stout and
greasy fellows, who were “wasting their sweet-
new,’’ in the stifling atmosphere of the Court
room-with the mercury about ninety outside,
in the vain endeavor to comprehend the first
thing going on, except‘that brother Turner was
on triaL
It is one of the marvels how a little town like
Macon can support such a body of idlers; and
yet they bear the strongest -physical testimony
to beingiecL The explanation lies probably in
the extra-legal levies so .frequently made on
gardens, chicken-coops, store-houses and dwell
ings, and there is in onr judgment' no great
amount of either security or prosperity due the
South, so long as such, an amount of vagrancy
exists.
It was a fell blow, when the Radicals forced
the negro into politics and made of him the
lowest specimen of a partisan loafer yet visible
in creation—living on the vague expectation
that in-some way he is going to get some good
: fortune out of politios yet, and while he is wait
ing for it, it is not worth while to waste his time
in labor. There were always a great deal too
many idle whites in Macon, but now the negroes
have set in to see what they can do in the same
line. It is an interesting question how Provi
dence will arrange matters so asto.preventsome
. of them from-starving.
•Political Depravity.
•Mr.’John W. Forney is giving some strong
- illustrations of the total depravity of his party in
his two organs—both daily. On the 15th he
telegraphs from "Washington to the Philadelphia
Press that Chase has sold himself out to the
Democrats, by bargaining to release Yerger,
the murderer of Crane, on application for ha
beas oorpus.
On the 16th he telegraphs three of his arti
cles from the Chronicle to the Press. In one of
these he affects to prove this ridiculous charge.
In the next one he is getting np a pretence to
nullify the -Virginia -election. He says:
Our table is literally covered with proofs of
cruelty, corruption, and intimidation of the
free dm en on election day; and we have letters
from many persons who say they will be com
pelled to'fly -the -State if the rebel Democrats
are not sternly restrained under-the new rule.
We can imagineFomey grinning over-his plot
and contrivances to defeat reconstruction in
-Virginia, and the reader may not be surprised
if they should be successful. Fomey is the
best living illustration of total depravity in
America.
To Bay Cuba.
In relation to the schemes on hand to buy ont
•and annex Cuba and put a stop to the war there
Fomey telegraphs to the Philadelphia Press of
the 16th, the substance of what is copied from
the Washington Chronicle in the article we ex
tract to day from the Charleston Courier. We
are disposed to believe that an understanding
exists between the United -States Government
and-the Court of Spain upon this subject, and
.important events will probably be developed in
a few days. Cuba is to be bought and annexed.
Spain sells what she cannot hold except at more
. ooet than profit
•New York Mercantile Journal.
Mr. H.;K. Hetdon, the senior of this excel
lent journal, is in Macon, stopping at the Brown
House. .He comes South, at this nnusnal sea
son for a trip from the North, on business, and
to gather information-tor his paper. The Mer-
. can tile. Journal is the merchants’ text book, com
pendium and digest It brings him the latest
quotations of every article known in trade, re
views of the commercial and financial status
and all other, timely information connected with
.business. We hope onr merchants will form
.Mr. Heydon’-s acquaintance. They will find
Ju'm a highly intelligent and attractive gentleman.

TnoMASTON", Ga., July 18, 1869.
Editors Telegraph: This immediate neigh-
•borhood, (Flint river, eight miles south of
Thomaston,) is suffering very much for rain.
-Oom-on-uplandiB much injured. Cotton has,
as-yet, suffered but .little.
■H I had any chance, I would send you a beet’
—the seed sown on the 15th of February last.
-It measures twenty-seven inches in circumfer-
-ence—two inches above ground—turnip rooted.
Richmond and OpioRxvEa Railroad.—It is
.understood that twelve eminent New York capi
talists have undertaken to complete the work
begun by the State of Virginia before the war,
.of building a railroad.from Richmond and Wash
ington to the Ohio River. A party of engineers
.and railroad men have just passed over the
Toute, and say that it is a favorable one, the
-distance between common points at the West and
the seaboard being less, and the grades twenty-
five per cent, less than any of -the other trank
lines. Two millions of money has already been
Tffised for the project.
Dinner Tejldx jk Mobile.—The Tribune says
Messrs. Walsh, Smith & Co., of that city, have
imported three cargoes of ooffee from Rio, with
the most satisfactory results. Theyshipped 500
bags to St. Bonis, on the 14th. Messrs.. Mo-
bilians, can coffee possibly be good, coining
straight along from Rio, without being aired in a
New York warehouse ?
How Onr Georgia Corn Crops in the
H eat are Welting on.
We must ooufees the news from our com
plantations in Illinois, Missouri and parts udja-
oent is as blue as Indigo. We are drowned out
up there and burnt up down here. Marmadnke
and Brown’s General Circular of last Saturday
says:
Of corn, business letters speak in desponding
tones, and it may be deduoed that the crop, even
under the most favorable circumstances, -mil be
small. We hear of abandoned fields in all di
rections, replanted fruitlessly, or in which the
rapid growth of weeds had choked down the
grain. Only on the American bottom front Al
ton to Memphis, and in Southern Missouri, is
there promise of an average crop, while in the
Wabash valley fls fields thrice overflowed will
yield scarce a million of bushels against four
millions garnered last year.
That is.gloomy and corn $1.45 by the car load
in Macon yesterday. When some of onr corres
pondents renew the argument that it is better to
buy than to grow com, they will be compelled
to amend their data, and put down next year s
supply of com say at two and a half upon their
plantations, for that will be about the cost of it.
Let planters who will be short of com look ont
for the best seed oats and put in a good crop
next fall. We must strike for our own food
supplies or we shall never get rich.
The Cuba Purchase.
The Herald's Washington telegrams of the
17th, flatly contradict the statements that any
steps have been taken to purchase Cuba, and
says that the State Department affirms that
Sickles has no such instructions and the Spanish
Minister says, so far as he understands the mat
ter, Cuba is not-for sale, at present, either to
the Cubans or to the United States. The Cuban
envoy and the members of the Cuban Junta are
of opinion that the Cubans can take Cnba from
Spain, and hence have no intention of buying
it. With regard to Spain allowing the Cabans
to control their own affairs is the Canadians do,
and so bringing the revolution to an end, it
may be stated that such a proposition was made
indirectly to the insurgent leaders when the
prospect of Cuban independence was less bright
than it is now and promptly rejected.
The French Cable.—A Washington special
says a satisfactory arrangement has been made
with Secretary Fish by the officers of the French
•Cable Company, whereby our Government per
mits the landing of the cable upon American
territory. The managers of the French com
pany, after several interviews with the Secreta
ry of State, agreed to hand over to the State de
partment a written document pledging the com
pany to give up their exclusive privilege in
France and to accept future legislation of Con
gress in regard to Atlantic telegraphs.
Somebody Predicts a Smash-Up.—A distin
guished writer on financial subjects writes as
follows in a private letter, to a gentleman of Bos
ton: “There are but few bonds left available
for shipment to Europe. There must, there
fore, be a large shipment of gold. It is esti
mated that there are one thousand millions of
United States bonds in Europe, besides other
stocks. It will require the equivalent of one
million bales of cotton to pay our interest abroad
every year. There is nothing in history parallel
to this, and no recorded financial crashes will
compare with that which must come on this
country.”
Yellow Fever is Pensacola.—The Green
ville South Alabamian learns that the yellow
fever is prevailing to an alarming extent in Pen
sacola, and that it is apprehended it will be a
scourge daring the entire season.
Pensacola, is a remarkably healthy place or
dinarily and has no local causes of disease.—
Whenever the yellow fever becomes epidemic
there, there is just cause for apprehension that
it will sweep the coast. We hope to hear that
the statement of the Sonth Alabamian is
erroneous. We see no mention of the disease in
New Orleans or Mobile.
New Cotxom in Savannah.—We received on
Saturday, says the News, from Messrs. A, M.
Sloan A Co., of this city, two bolls of the new
crop, grown in Leon county, Florida. Wo think
this is the first cotton “of the season,” ana hope
the enterprising factors who received it will soon
have many bales from the same section.
The New York Tribune has reeeived special
information from Havana asserting that the new
Captain-General, Caballero de Bod as, has been
instructed to offer the Cabans the powers of
self-government; and, furthermore, .that the
provisional leaders of Spain, and especially Gen
eral Prim, have been or are in favor of selling
the island to the United States.
The length of the Pacific Railroad is such,
that a courtship recently begun in Ohio was
consummated in a mat-rage before the two trav.
ellers reached the end of their route.
There is a lady in Sutton, New York, who
was married at twelve years of age, who is the
mother of sixteen children, weighs two hundred
and ten pounds, and is “fair, fat and forty.”
Drowned.—Henry itosenfield, son of Rev. J.
Bose afield, a lad of sixteen, was drowned in
Savannah last Sunday while bathing in the
river.
’ A LnrxnME of carefnl attention to the needs
of the travelling public have won universal
comendation for the American House, Boston,

Rice, Esq. m
Crops in Dougherty,—-We copy on our first
page an interesting rural sketch from the Alba
ny News,
The New York Sun is fiercely down upon
Grant for taking a national vessel to go Sum
mering, and thinks he ought to travel on his

For our part we wish they would take all the na
tional vessels and give the entire radical party a
good long cruise. Let them be shown Hell
Gate, Van Demon’s Land, Scylla&nd Charybdis,
the Hole in the Wall, the Norway Maalstrom,
Cape Horn, Abyss of Misery, Destruction Reef
and all the interesting sights.
Foreign Immigration to Virginia.—The Rich
mond Whig says eighty Austrian families from
the neighborhood of Vienna are coming to settle
near Richmond. -They have already disposed
of their effects in Austria,, and are awaiting the
return of their agent, who has been here recent
ly to make arrangements for them. He is now
en route for that country. Those already here
are delighted with their prospects.

Annexation op West Florida to Alabama.—
The Tallapoosa Sentinel (Radical paper) says
that there is not the slightest prospect of more
than a “corporal’s guard of the people of Flori
da voting in favor of the cession of the western
part of that State to Alabama; also that the
Governor of Florida is opposed to it.
Supreme Court.—In the Supreme Court on
Monday, argument was heard in case No. 6, At
lanta Circuit—Brown guardian, vs. William
Wright and wife—Appeal from Court of Ordi
nary of DeKalb county. Judge William Ezzard,
for plaintiff in error, and M. A Candler, Esq.,
for defendant in error.
The Court adjourned pending opening argu
ment of Mr. Candler, in the next case.
The Virginia Election.—Some of the Virgi
nia papers intimate that General Canby is go
ing to count that negro ont of Congress and may
perhaps count in Wells as Governor. That is
a cheap and easy method of remedying the mis
takes of a popular election.
Rain Promise.—For the past two days we
have had a cloudy horizon, and a fair promise
of a general rain, which we would like to see
fulfilled. The barometer, too, indicates rain.
We hope it will come soon and generally.
Heavy Rain in Cincinnatl—Last Sunday
one and a half inches of rain fell in Cincinnati
in twenty minutes. The water did great dam
age, and several persons were killed by light
ning. .
Incendiarism in Early County.
We learn from the Blakely, (Ga.) News that
the fine dwelling on the McClary plantation,
about five miles west of Morgan, Calhonn coun
ty, was fired by an incendiary and burned on
Monday night of last week. The house was the
property of Hood <fc Thigpen, and was worth
about $8,000. No insurance. Suspicion rests
on two of the negroes on the plantation.
The same paper says the Academy building
jast completed by Mr. A. L. Platt, near his
store in Early county, was burned on the night
of the 13th instant. Mr. Platt's store was also
fired but was discovered in time to save it.
[Bun.
Koopmaxbchaat, whose name is terribly man
gled by the telegraph, is not a Chinaman. He
is a Hollander, for many years' a resident in
San Francisco, where he is connected in busi
ness with Hip Wo, Chy Long, Hip Yik, and
other celebrated Chinese merchants.
: : No Outside Rows.
A planting friend of ours descanting upon the
“meanness” of outside rows of com and cotton,
was asked by bis little son, why then he had
any outside rows—why plant them at all—why
not get rid of them ? The United States have
been working on the principle of dispensing
with outside rows ever since we had the honor
of her acquaintance. She has “spread"—“ab
sorbed”—and “extended”—simply that she
might absorb, extend, and spread in order to
avoid boundary difficulties, neighbors likely to
be troublesome and the restraint of metes and
bonds. We are going to have no outside rows
whatever.
It was once thought that the Atlantic ocean might
serve aa a pretty fair boundary, but we see from
Lippincott for August that there is not a reason
urged some years ago against the Nueces, which
doeB not apply with much greater force against
the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico. We must
have Cuba—Cuba is in fact onr’s already by a
destiny twice as manifest as that which took in
Oregon, Texas and the Rio Grande.
But with Cuba—then what ? Why, says Lip
pincott, St. Domingo, Porto Rico, and all the
other islands of the Antilles, of course. The
acquisition of Cnba will compel the acquisition
of all the West India groups—big an^ little—
for otherwise they would be dangerous neigh
bors. We must have no outside rows.
Then, too, by the irresistible logic of events
Mexico most be onr’s—and as a consequence of
that acquisition we are bound to absorb Central
America down to the Isthmus. It will be indis
pensable to a vigorous national administration
to have in our possession the circuit of our wide
spread dominions by the Atlantic, Gulf and Pa
cific seas.
Thus we go on—acquisition gathering, new
force from acquisition—aggregating a boundless
empire, peopled by almost every nation, kindred,
tongue and race, and piling up, in the immen
sity of our area and its discordant population,
the arguments for that despotic centralization
of power which is the popular governmental
theory of the day.
The Chronicle and Sentinel and the
Turner Case.
We really have not the slighest disposition to
pull so mnch as one of the feathers out of the
Chronicle and Sentinel’s paper cap, in refer
ence to the Tomer case. He may still assert,
as he reported on the Gth inst., that Turner was
taken from off his perch in the Macon Post
Office by two United States Marshals, arrested,
ironed, and sent to Atlanta on the 5th inst,
upon the testimony of Marian Harris that be
had conspired with her to pass counterfeit
money, and call that news and fact if he choos
es. But we have a right, at least, to insist that
he shall not misrepresent us. In his daily fe
licitation of the 20th that paper runs on in this
fashion.
Every day that has passed since the second
arrest of H. M. Turner, the negro Post-master
at Maoon, has added fresh proof that the ac
count of the first proceedings in that case,
which appeared in the Chronicle and Sentinel,
of the 6th inst., was substantially correct—des
pite the sneers of one-horse news (?) papers,
jealous of the enterprise displayed by this jour
nal in the collection of interesting facts, and the
denial of the reverend counterfeiter, Turner,
himself, solicited and published by the Macon
Telegraph, which paper now pretends that it
knew the whole story weeks before the arrest
was made. Soon after onr account appeared,
though copied by some, its truth was emphati
cally denied by all the Atlanta and Macon pa
pers.
Now we have never sneered at the Chronicle
and Sentinel and cannot imagine why that pa
per should go into this pet with us as a “one-
horse newspaper.” [We have already given no
tice that we prefer a mule.] On the contrary,
we have the highest respect for the enterprise
and intelligence of that paper, and if near the
writer would take groat pleasure in smoothing
his hair, or patting him on the back, or any of
those kindly offices by which unnecessary iri-
tation is allayed. We really think the Chroni
cle and Sentinel is so well-conducted, in the
main, that this excessive apprehension and alarm
are quite groundess.
Now what the Telegraph did say when Tur
ner was really arrested, on the 14th, was in the
following words, strictly true, and calling for no
impeachment of our veracity, whatever, on the
part of the Chronicle and Sentinel:
Most of the facts upon which the arrest was
predicated have been in the course of elaboration
by the United States police for three weeks,and
the Telegraph was early in possesion of them,
but of course, under imperative ofcb'gations of
secrecy. It was of great public interest, in sev
eral aspects, that we should refrain from be
traying the slightest knowledge or conscious
ness in the premises.
That arrest on the 14th was the first and only
arrest of Turner so far.
The Tennille and Atlanta Railroad.
The Atlanta papers announce that Mr. W. B.
Johnston, on the part of the Central Railroad,
was in Atlanta on Saturday, to confer with the
City Council and citizens relative to the building
of the road to Tennille. On Friday night, Al
derman Anderson, Mayor pro tern., appointed
the Mayor and Council as a committee to confer
with Mr. Johnston. Dr. Angier and other citi
zens acted in connection with Council. The
Central Road is determined to bnild the road,
and are negotiating for the right-of-way.
Ah air line from Tennille (where the Central
Railroad makes a bend in a Southwesterly direc
tion to reach Macon) to Atlanta would have a
length of about 100 and ten miles. This is a
scheme which the Central Railroad has had in
contemplation for many years, and it will ma
terially shorten the communication between Sa
vannah and the West, while it will penetrate a
country which will sustain the road. It is pres-
singly suggested just now perhaps by the pro
gress of tile Griffin and North Alabama Road—a
line which if carried through either to Memphis
or Decatur is, we think, bound to be the great
carrier of Western products to the. markets of
Middle, Southern and Southwestern Georgia.—
This seems to be the era of grand railway scram
ble in Georgia, and one result of it at least will
be to put a great many sections of the State in
easy communication with markets which have
now much wagoning to do.
The Albany and Thomasville
road.
Rail*
Thomastoxe, Ga., July 17, 1869.
Editors Telegraph: The Sjuth Georgia and
Florida Railroad is now completed beyond the
Ocklockonee River—seven miles north of town
—and the cars are running on it daily. The
grading is nearly done to the first depot—11
miles. The superstructure is being laid ahead
of the iron, which latter is being laid very rap
idly. I will deliver the whole of the lumber for
track and depot to that point within the next'
ten days. The work will be done, and cars will
run to the depot by the first of August, when the
Company will get State aid of $8000 per mile—
so you see the South Georgia and Florida Rail
road to Albany is a fixed fact.
Yours respectfully, H. A. S.
The New Orleans Picayune of Sunday has the
following:
CoL John S. Thrasher, who has done much
service' to the public benefit, part of it with the
Picayune, and who has been for some time liv
ing in New York, called npon us yesterday
evening, looking hale and hearty.
We were very sorry tb learn that he is upon a
sad errand; that of conveying the remains of
Mrs. Thrasher to Galveston, her permanent
home. She died on the 9th inst, in New York,
after a brief illness.
We sympathize deeply with our former and
valued associate in his loss, and so will thousands
to whom the past services and association? of
Mr. Thrasher have made his name and charac
ter familiar.
The Chinamen.
It was a year ago that the Telegraph was ab
solutely the pioneer press in foreshadowing the
issues which, at no distant date, were likely to
grow out of Chinese immigration. We had
then little conception of the rapid development
the subject would assume, or that, in a few
months, it would become an absorbing topio
with the American press and politicians. But al
ready it is the theme of innumerable leaders and
the anxious puzzle of the whole brood of party
cormorants.
Some democratic organizations very unwisely,
in onr opinion, are taking issue against this
immigration as if it were a matter which could
be controlled by party organizations, instead of
a great tidal movement of population, as irri-
sistible, in point of actual fact, as the tides of
the ocean.
It is .one of those grand ethnological phe
nomena, none the less wonderful to the philo
sophic and religions.mindibecause it has been
preceded by the silent and potential opera
tion of a series of causes whose combined result
was never foreseen or anticipated by the most
sagacious human intellect until it burst at once
upon our astonished vision.
In the West the boundary quarrel with Mexico
—the war—the acquisition of new territory—
the colonization of the Pacific shores—the fierce
struggle upon the slavery question which grew
ont of these events—the secession—the civil
war and destruction of slavery—the declaration
of the universal equality of races and manhood
suffrage on the American continent—the con
struction of the great highway across the conti
nent were events so startling and rapid as to be
without the pale of the ordinary dealings of Pro
vidence.
On the other hand, the untold millions of the
East who, from the remotest ages, had main
tained an unbroken isolation from the outside
world—whose servility to precedent, custom and
tradition was almost as insurmountable as the
laws of nature, are by a train of rapid events
even more wonderful, and af> little understood,
brought into sudden and full contact with Christ
endom. The great gates of exclusion which for
! centuries had barred out the outside world, are
rolled back and the mysteries of the East are
disclosed. The teeming population bursts forth
as from a prison house. The great hive of the
human race swarms, and is pouring forth
its myriads of people over the unoccupied
places of the earth’s surface, and finds its direct
line of march to the Western Continent.
Surely we need not say to our readers this is
the hand of God. These events must appear to
every candid mind too stupendous—too rapid—
too concurrent and co-operative to inspire any
other belief or opinion than that they are the
handiwork of the Great God himself—indicating
His manifest purpose to induct a new order of
things upon the earth, by prostrating the bar
riers to human intercourse which for ages have
subsisted apparently in the interests of supersti
tion and ignorance.
We say, then, we behove it will be equally
futile to oppose or to deplore and deprecate
this Eastern immigration. It i3 going to come
with an increasing volume which will astonish
everybody—and here on this continent the flood
tide of popular influx, from Europe and from
Asia, is destined to meet until the land is peopled
and perhaps so filled that the current may in
turn set back again to the Eastern shores.
The consequences of this movement compre
hend one of those mighty problems which no hn
man ingenuity con grasp. They must rest alone
for solution with the Great Disposer of all hu
man events. Human forecast might well pre
sage the most serious dangers to religion, free
government and pnblio morality. We might dis-
traot our brains with the most anxious inquiries
as to what is to be the fate of American labor
exposed to this apparently ruinous competition.
We. might predict for it either a cruel fate of
poverty, degradation and suffering, or the most
bloody and desolating struggles in aggrarian
contests with property and its defences.
But why vex ourselves with such inquiries
and speculations ? As we failed to foresee those
grand causes which were in swift operation to
precipitate Asiatic immigration upon America,
so we may not gracefully set up a pretence of
sagacity in divining or forecasting the nature of
the results upon our society and civilization
which this immigration, in the hands of God, is
destined to produce. Our best course, accept
ing the inevitable fact, is to direct, employ and
improve this immigration as circumstanoes and
an enlightened judgment may direct.
From Monroe County.
We clip the following from the Monroe Ad
vertiser of yesterday:
One day last week, a group of the oldest citi
zens of the county were gathered together on
our street, chatting, doubtless, of old times.—
There were seven of these patriarchs. Their
combined ages are five hundred and twenty-
three years, and they are the fathers of seven
ty three children. Although they have passed
through the trying scenes of a second revolution,
and have seen the weary labours of three quar
ters of a century come to naught, yet their
years sit lightly upon them. Long may these
fathers dwell in the land.
The weather continues uninterruptedly warm
and dry. We have had a drought of nearly
three weeks duration in Forsyth and vicinity,
and the gardens about town are almost entirely
cut off.
Mr. O. A. King, of this place, has the finest
sow we ever saw. She is a pure Chester White,
and will weigh fully five hundred pounds. Her
first litter of pigs were sold at prices which more
than paid for the sow, and now she has a second
litter of ten beautiful pigs. Mr. King sets an ex
ample to our farmers which they would do well
to follow. The advantages of stocking a farm with
a pure breed of thrifty well-conditioned hogs
cannot be estimated, and we bope soon to see a
waking-up on the subject of stock-raising in the
South.
We regret to chronicle the fact that our
worthy P. M., Dr. A. .H. Sneed, will have to 1
vacate his place for Stephen Potts, brother to•
the Ordinary, who has been appointed in his 1
stead. .
The dry spell which we are having in Forsyth |
has extended, in some instances, to the farming 1
regions, and in those sections the condition of ■
the com crop is anything but favorable. A '
correspondent at Colaparohee writes ns that the .
prospects of a good yield of corn in his neigh
borhood are exceedingly slim. Other portions •
of the county, however, have been visited with;
seasonable rains, and where this is the case,'
excellent crops are expected. Cotton is not af- !
fected, as yet, by the dry weather, and continuesj
to look well. " !
The Crops.—Last week, though intensely i
warm, was an exceedingly busy one in Butts '
amoDg the planters. Work was pushed vigor-,
ously, and many crops of corn have been “laid.
by. Some portions of the county are suffering i
from a drouth, bat generally speaking prospects j
are bright for more than average crops of corn 1
and cotton.
Indian Spring.—At the close of last week;
quite a crowd of health aqd pleasure seekers j
was collected at this pleasant watering place, and .
we learn that numerous other parties have en-!
gaged rooms for the balance of the season. j
From Grinin.
The Star of Tuesday says real property is in
very active demand.
The same paper chronicles a new and peculiar
disease among chickens—a kind of liver com
plaint And says serious illness has been occa
sioned in families where diseased chickens have
been eaten.
The Star is coming ont in a thundering lead
er as soon as it rains. A letter from Pike says
they are having the prettiest rains that ever fell
in this country. A ‘Tew more of the same sort”
and we will make more com than the Egyptians
had when old Jacob sent his sons there for
bread. Next fall we want all the “Star'' folks,
and other poor devils in Griffin, to send down
and get com without money and without price.
All we charge yon. is to put up the fence. Onr
cotton; peas, potatoes and gardens are fine.
The freedmen are doing well, and everything
quiet Take it all and all, we are the happiest
people npon earth.

Perils of Biank Paper—French Cable.
WASHixoTON. Jqly ^l.-T-fleccetary , Bout well gives
notice of the adoption of a distinctive paper for all
obligations and other securities of the United States,
and warns all parties that it is a felony to have or
retain possession of such paper or paper like it.—
One of the peculiarities of this paper is the intro
duction of colored silk, cotton, or other fibrous mt-
terial-into the body of the paper while in prooees of
manufacture.
It is stated on absolute authority, that the mana
gers of the French Cable have stipulated to abide
by the action of Congress. They will be allowed to
land their cable in Massachusetts and work it
without any present Federal interference whatever.

A Big Fight—A long and hard fight occurred yes-
erday afternoon, in the third story of the Ayres’
[bufiding, on Mulberry street, a few moments after
the United States Commissioners's Court had ad
journed, between M. M. Hall, a city policeman, and
J. Clarke Swayze.
The large crowd had dispersed, leaving no per
sons in the room except the two reporters of the
city papers and the two comb&ttants. It appears
that Mr. Hall had asked Swayze to remain a mo
ment, or had, at least-, detained him in the room,
until the crowd left, for the purpose of caning him
for an article that appeared in Swayze’s paper last
year, ini regard to Hall’s denunciation of his own
son. .When the crowd had left, Hall and Swayze
got into a conversation which lasted but a moment,
when Hall struck Swayze a heavy blow on the head
with a stick he had prepared for the-purpose, and as
he was staggering hack, struck him again several
times aB he fell against the wall. The first blow or
two on the head stunned Swayze; but .he soon re
covered, and springing up under the heavy blows he
was receiving, he grasped Hall by the throat and
bore him back against the opposite wall, where the
struggle was fierce and desperate for a few seconds,
in which Swayze managed to wrest the stick from
Hall’s hand, and getting it firmly in his own, he be
gan to give Hall the benefit of the stjpk, and struck
him several pretty sharp blows. By this-time the
reporters had ran down stairs and reported what
was going on overhead, and officers Neil and one or
two others rushed up and separated the parties, af
ter a fight of fully two minutes, Swayze was hurt
pretty badly about the head and shoulders; hut we
must, as an eye witness, say that he made a game
and bully fight against a much larger man than him
self, and one who had attacked him so unexpectedly
and unfairly.
• The courts will, doubtless, attend to the matter
this morning.
The Simmons Regulator has been used so many
years with success that no one afflicted with dyspep
sia, colic, constipation, or any bilions affection,

think it is the greatest medicine in the world”. An
other says: “I consider it invaluable in Bick-
headache, as it has not failed to give relief in, any
instance.” Another says : “I consider it indispen
sable in my family, and will never be without it.”

Accident at Eufaula.—We regret to learn, by
letter, that Mr. Thomas McKenna, an old citizen of
Eufaula, and a well known merchant tailor, fell
from a second story window of a house in that city
on Monday night, about 9 o’clock, and received very
severe if not fatal injuries by the falL
SUMMER PERILS—HOW TO ESCAPE THEM.
It will not do to trifle with the health in hot
weather. Yigor oozes through the skin at every
pore, and it is by physical vigor only that unhealthy
influences can be baffled and repellted. The vital
elements are evaporated in perspiration. Intense
heat converts a man into a self-acting pomp, and
the moisture that is pumped out of him ia derived
from the well-springs of life within him. There is
great need, therefore, that these sources of physi
cal strength should be in a condition to bear, with
out danger or inconvenience, the extraordinary
drain. If they are not in snch a condition, the in
dividual becomes languid and low-spirited.
The main thing is to keep the digestive apparatus
in good working train—for if the stomach, the pur
veyor of the system, does its duty thoroughly, the
liver, the bowels, the brain and the nervous system,
being duly nurtured, will be likely to do theirs. In
view of these facts, it is manifest that a powerful
and wholesome vegetable tonic like H03TETTEB'S
STOMACH BITTERS, is especially required at this
enfeeblingseason. It is tho most admirable of all
correctives and invigorants, and for this reason—it
does not over-stimulate the system. The propor
tions of aperient, tonio and stimulating components
are so judiciously graduated, that the processes of
invigoration and purification go on simultaneously,
and no nndue excitement is created in the circula
tion or the brain. All unmedicated stimulants, how
ever pare, excite the pulse and the nervous system.
Their exhilarating effect is temporary, and when it
passes off the physical and mental depression they
were employed to remove returns in an aggravated
form, But this is not tho case when HOSTETTER’S
BITTERS are taken as .& stomachic and nervine.
The medicinal herbs, roots and gums with which
they are impregnated, neutralize the exciting prin
ciple of the rye spirit which forms their basis, and
which is in itself the moat wholesome of all the
varieties of alcohoL

EXTRACT FROM A LETTER FROM JERUSA
LEM.
“We started early to ascend Mt/Olivet, to behold
the sun gild the minarets and towers of the devoted
city, from the place where the memory, stirred by a
thousand associations, should exalt the mind as well
as the eye to the inspiration of the scene. Well is
the voyager repaid for long travels, horrid roads,
antediluvian cookery, squalid companionship and
the importunities of begging, thieving Arabs. Well
wjuld it have repaid you, oh 1 man of commerce and
the crucible 1 and well might you have been remind
ed of your own city; for here, painted upon a board
nailed upon one of the huge olive trees, under which
the Bacred martyrs toiled for the sins of the world,
eighteen hundred years ago, were these familiar
figures, S. T.—1860—X. We do not know who did
it-, but no doubt some poor invalid traveller, cured
by Plantation Bitters, wished to advertise their vir
tues in a place from whence all knowledge flows.”

Beautbul Woman. If yon would be beautiful
use Hagan’s Magnolia Balm.
It gives a pure blooming complexion and restores
youthful beauty.
Its effects are gradual, natural and perfect.
It removes redness, blotches and pimples, cures
tan, sunburn and freckles, and makes a lady of thir
ty appear but twenty.
The Magnolia Balm makes the skin smooth and
pearly; the eye bright and clear; the cheek glow
with the bloom of youth, and imparts a fresh, plump
appearance to the countenance. No lady need com
plain of her complexion, when 75 cents will purchase
this delightful article.
The best article to use for the hair is Lvon’s Ka-
