Weekly Review of the Market.
OFFICE DAILY TELEGRAPH; ' >
August18—Evening, 1869./
Tho wholesale and Jobbing trade of the city has
been quiet and dull for the week ending this even
ing. Many of our merchants are at the North lay
ing in goods whilst most of the capitalists are still
lingering at their summer watering places. It will
now be but a week or two before the fall and win
ter stock of goods will begin to arrive, and the indi
cations are that we shall have the liveliest times in
Macon the coming fall and winter ever witnessed in
her history.
Money continues tight in this market as the banks
are playing a close game, just now, in order to start
.all-banded with the opening of the busy season.
The stock and bond market is perfectly stagnant,
and nearly all kinds of securites in this line are fal
ling off in price. Southwestern stock is now quoted
at 08 (al 00. Central 120.
CoTlos,— Receipts to-day 2 bales; sales 5; ship
ped none.
Receipts for the week ending thia evening, the
above included, 16 bales; sales for same time 11;
shipments 17—showing a decrease in receipts of
the past week from those of the week before of 17
bales; decrease in sales for same time 22 bales.
There have been received of the new crop of cot
ton at this point, (luring the week closing thia even
ing 10 bales. The highest price paid in this market
for new cotton, thus far, was 35 cents.
There has been no market during the week and
prices have been merely nominal. Two bales of the
new crop sold to-day at 30 cents. It classed Liver
pool middlings.

T HIS, PRESS murt commend itself to thecotton planters of the Southern States for its durability, sim
plicity of construction, and ease with which it can be operated by either hand, horse, water or steam power,
the change from one to the other being effected in a few minutes. A great advantage this Press possesses, is
that it occupies for hand power only a space of fourteen feet square, and may bo placed and operated in the
Gin Rouse, thus avoiding the necessity of takmg cotton out of he house to be packed. Ic can be used in any
kind of weather; the Press being in the house, rainy days a-ono obstacle to packing, as i> the case with
wooden screws. Another advantage is- when yon get ^choffeld’s Press, you have a Press for ail time, and one
not liable to decay or breakage, as is the ca-e with the old wooden screws, and most other iron screws and
presses This is evident from the fact that the screw i3 iron, either wrought or cast, and the frames aro of
wrought iron, and no part of the Presa liable to decay touches the ground. The frames may be made of
wood, at the option of the planter. Planters may purchase either the screw andnut alcno, and put the frame
and box of wood to it themselves, or may purchase the screw, nut and iron frames, and put the wooden box
to it, or they may purchase the Press complete, with screw, nut. iron frames and box, making the most com
plete Press in use. Presses complete, as last named, are in more general use, and give great satisfaction to
all parties using them, a» will be seen from letters in my possession. Parties in need of Cotton Presses would
do well to call, if possible, and examine mine: or if they should favor me with their order, they may rely
Dm HUNTER begs to state that he devotes
his attention exclusively to the treatment of
Diseases of the Head, Throat and Lungs, to
which branch of his profession he has long de
voted particular attention.
At the earnest solicitation of his patients, in
Georgia, he has dosed his office in New Orleans
for the summer season, and is making a tour of
the principal cities of this State; therefore hh
stay in each must necessarily be limited, as he
returns to New Orleans early in the fall.
Dr. HUNTER’S SYSTEM of TREATMENT
for diseases of the Nose, Throat and Lungs, as
Chronic Catarrh, Chronic Bronchitis, Asthma,
Consumption, etc., is entirely different from
that ordinarily employed; is founded nponan
ample experience and comprises the various
methods of

Dear Sir—I am using one of your 4 inch Cotton Preas Screws. 3 inch pitch, with levers, adapted to

Dr. Hunter comes from New Orleans, where
he baa a large practice during the winter months
and has been in our midst only about one
month, yet, within that brief space of time he
has established an enviable reputation, both as
a physician and gentleman, and we believe de
serves the confidence of the public. He has un
doubtedly, by improved methods of treatment,
conjoined to a long and active experience, suc
ceeded in successfully combating a class of dis
eases hitherto believed to be incurable, and we
trust that those who avail themselves of his
professional services during the remainder of
his stay here, will experience equally happy
results.
