The Greoraria 'W'eeklv TelesraiDh.rT
faE TELEGRAPH.
^COS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1869.
•' rccH ui. Response-Ws have received several
* ' . ^.jtions recently, from friends living fa
htrcftern Georgia and to Southeastern Ala-
^nesting U3 to look after seeming board
^fl'jdginS f° r f hem during the coming fair, and
§the result by letter. Even if we had the time
;f ^ r8 w look after the matter, we oonld not, just
** zcrcmpbsh anything at the different hotels.
Jf' jrj fjrds from the Brown House and Earner
' ' l
' Arrangement is now in operation which, if the
^ ns of Macon will attend to. will give them no
Me to accommodate a vast number of persona
fail to G e t accommodation at the hotels,
^.arrangement is for each citizen who is willing
^ve one or more visitors during the fair to call
9 office of the Agricultural Society, on Mul-
* street, and register his or her name, and state
' Tnnml’or of guests can be accommodated, and
Ai'it terms. By this moans the great inoonveni-
.! and difficulty of hunting up a place where
can be obtained will be obviated.
" vet. therefore, we can give no definite response
• ■ , our friends on the subject; but we can
! Mr f>y this much to one and all: The beet and
^ • extensive arrangements will be made, both by
J io(c j a end citizens, for the accommodation of
ifvbo vriH be likely to attend the Fair, and no one
, f(JT j W ay under the mere improaeion that
Samn will bo unequal to the emergency.
hirt or thz Season—Wo noticed on tiie comer
g#wn 4 and Cherry streets, yesterday, a wagon
\ ad of «naU watermelons—something wo have not
dnring thM three weeks. From their small
pJ j e fni sickly-lookfag color, wo should say
. last of the season; at least we hope
y for nothing is more unhealthy at this time of
,y year. Wo saw none but a few policemen eating
^ melons in question; hut as they can stand
gleteTer they got to eat, wo may look for no seri-
rJ results. The proprietor of the wagon could
ast eell bis melons, so ho did the next best thing,
It giving thorn to the guardians of the city.
jbe Cm.—No citizen of Macon ever saw her
(irtets dustier, drier or more disagreeable than they
teat the present time. But notwithstanding the
ftaiition of tho streets, there is a great deal of
tames* bustle and stir going on, but in other re*
{ p M ts we are having a most distressingly dull and
jrvtime. Nothing happens outside of commercial
odea worth reporting.
An Old Friend with a New Face.
The old National Intelligencer, the demise of
Aich a few months ago caused some sensation
ja the newspaper world, is to be revived in a new
form. The proprietors of the Washington
Evening Express announce that that paper will
be merged with tho Intelligencer under tho
Mine of the Daily Intelligencer and Express,
tad published as a Democratic morning journal.
He first issue is to make its appearance to-day.
The combination will enjoy many elements of
strength, and it is to bo hoped that the result
till be a paper every way a worthy representa*
tire of Democratic interests at the national cap
ital—CAnriesfon News.
Poor. Lane pnblishes tho following in the
JlilledgeviHe Federal Union:
Jitters. Editors: Allow me to express through
the colnmnsof tho Union my grateful apprecia
tion of a present this day received. A fine
horse, handsomely saddled and bridled, stands
st my door—a present from friends, chiefly
young men of our community. This gift, so
intrinsically valuable and useful to ma as a
minuter, has n ten-fold value as an expression
of the kind and considerate feeling_towards ine,
on the part of those who made it. May th6
‘•Larger blessing” bo bestowed on the generous
donors.
Facts fob the Ladies.—I have used my
lileeler & Wilson Sewing Machine over ten
years without repairs, and without breaking a
needle, although I commenced the uso of it
without any instruction. Have used it constant
ly for family sewing; have quilted whole quilts
of the largest size, and it is still in complete or
der, runs like a top, and bids fair to be willed
to those who come after me, with better powers
of production than an unbroken prairie farm.

A MovEMEET is on foot to establish in Nash

Manassas, Va., is growing into importance
since the war. It has now about eighty build

two hotels, one steam mill, one sumac mill, five

Thebe is a wheat-grower in Minnesota who
required fifteen reaping machines and one hun
dred and twenty hands for his harvest last
month. It seems that the opinion gains ground
that grain farms cannot be conducted economi
cally except m large tracts—the small farmer
not being able to incur the expense of the neces
sary machinery. Lord Stanley made such _ a
ststement at an agricultural dinner recently in
England.

The Indian mail steamship Carnatic was wreck

the cargo, which was very valuable, was entirely

Half way up Lookout Mountain, the place where
memory is stirred by a thousand thrilling associa
tions, and where tho brave boys of both armies met
and fought band to hand, where the blood of both
friend and foo was mingled together and ran down
the mountain-sido in rivulets, is a smooth-faced
rock, upon which a poor, wounded soldier inscribed
the following:
“8. T.—18C0—X.—Early fa tho battle I was
wounded and carried to this spot by two clever
‘Tanks.’ They hade mo farewell, and as they sup
posed, to die, for I was so weak from loss of blood
that I could but faintly thank them for their kind
ness. They left in my canteen a part bottle of
Plantation Bittebs, to which I owe my life, for it
strengthened me, and kept lifo within me until help
came and my wound was dressed. God bless them
for their kindness, and for the Plantation Bittcre.”

( THE FEVER AND AGUE SEASON.
1 When the leaves begin to change, remittent and
intermittent fevers make their appearance. From
the surface of the earth, bathed nightly fa heavy
dews, from marshes and swamps surcharged with
moisture, from the dying foliage of the woods, from
festering pools and sluggish streams, the sun of
September evolves clouds of miasmatic vapor peril
ous to health and life. The body, deprived by the
burning temperature of July and August of much of
its vigor and elasticity, is not fa a proper plight to
resist malaria; and hence all diseases that are pro
duced by a depraved condition of the atmosphere
are particularly prevalent in the fall
There is no reason why the health, of thousands
should be thus sacrificed. A preparatory course of
HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITTERS is a certain
protection against the epidemics and endemics
which autumn brings fa its train. Let all dwellers
fa unhealthy localities, liable to such visitations,
give heed to the warning and advice conveyed fa
this advertisement, and they may bid defiance to
the foul exhalations which are now rising, night and
day from the soil around them. No farmhouse fa
the land should be without this invaluable exhila-
rant and favigorant at an£ period of the year, but
especially fa the fall. It is not safe to go forth into
the chill, misty atmosphere of a September morning
or evening with the stomach unfortified by a tonic,
and of all tho tonics which medical chemistry has
yet given to the world, HOSTETTER’8 BITTEBS
are admitted to be the purest, the most wholesome
and the most beneficial.
Let all who desire to escape the billions attacks,
bowel complaints and malarious fevers, take the
BITTERS at least twice a day throughout tho pres
ent season. It is as wholesome as it is infallible.
Look to the trade mark, “HOSTETTER’S STOM
ACH BITTEBS,” engraved ou the label and em
bossed on tho bottle, and their revenue stamp cov
ering the cork, as counterfeits and imitations
abound.
SEDIVIVOS!
The 8. S. S. of 1861,
Or Dr. JEUSONS Origins! Southern Soonnso
Strep fob Children Teething, is again resusci
tated! It is a Corrigent of the Bowel disorders
contingent upon this period; a grateful Carmina
tive ; b! nutritious Syrup ; and a gentle Anodyne,
inducing calm and refreshing repose, without the
pernicious and distressing reactionary disturbance
of the nervous system that results from tho exhibi
tion of most preparations—expressly made for chil
dren. Its use fa the Southern States, as far back
as 1862, established its reputation as a Southern In
stitution, and, as a medicine unrivalled, and as be
ing the best and safest preparation for children
teething, ensuring best to mothers and nurses and
relief and strength to their infants. It is therefore
no new medicine, and needs no advertising where it
is best known. Eveiy precaution has been taken
to preserve and protect it from fraudulent counter
feits. It is manufactured only at the Laboratory
of Coite, Tompkins & Hcud, members of and suc
cessors to the old established Southern Drug House
of Habral. Rislet & Kitchen, 141 Chambers

The Doctor publishes a medical circular that gives
a full exposition ofvenereal and private diseases, that

It gives a clear delineation of all the diseases and
conditions resulting from the infringement of the
moral laws, excesses, indulgences, exposures, and im

contains instruction to the affiicted, and enabling
them to determine tho precise nature of their com

By XL B. Bullock, Governor of said State.
Whereas, It has been officially communicated to
this Dep-rtmont, that a malicious and cold-blooded
murder was committed in the county of Randolph,
on the 19th day of August, ultimo, upon the person
of Tom North, (colored) bv on© Alexander Fort, a
person of color, and thatsaid Fort has fled from jus
tice; and
Whereas, Tho Sheriff of said county of Randolph
certi-jos to me that he has exercised ail diligence, and
used every means in his power to apprehend the said
Alexander Fort and bring him to jastice. but without
avail: and that the offering of a suitable reward is
essential as a means of insuring the arrest of the said
Alexander Fort:
Now, therefore, to the end that the majesty of the
law may be folly vindicated and the perpetrator of
this atrocious crime be brought to speedy trial and
punishment, I, Rnfus B. Bullock, Governor and Com
mander-in-chief of the Army and Navy of this State,
and of the Militia thereof, have thought proper to
iisuo this, my proclamation, hereby offering & reward
of Five Hundred Collars for the apprehension and
delivery of the said Ale ran der Fort, with proof suffi
cient to convict, to the Sheriff of said county of Ran
dolph.
And I do moreover charge and require all officers
in this State, civil and military, to be vigilant in en
deavoring to apprehend the said Alexander Fort. 1_
order that he may he brought to trial for the offence
with which he stands charged.

To tie Sheriff or hit Lawful Deputy of Bibb County :
Whereas, At the May Term, A.D.,1^69, of the Supe
rior Conrt held in and for the county of Bibb, Henriet
ta Greer was tried for and convicted of the crime of mur
der, and was therefor senteoced by the Judge presid
ing at said Court, to be hanged by tho neck until dead
on the 23d day of July thereafter; and
Whereas, The said Henrietta Greer has been re
prieved until the 17th day of September instant, upon
the representation of her attorney and other respecta
ble citizens and to tho end that the testimony, facts
and circumstances produced upon her trial, might re
ceive a thorough and careful investigation: and
Whereas, Upon examination of the record in said
case it appears that the testimony against tbe con
demned was wholly circumstantial, and that her con
viction was founded upon her own confessions, which
confessions, when taken together, are contradictory
and evince the influence of fear and mental imbecili
ty: and
Whereas, The perfect social intimaoyof the con
demned with the deceased, precluded the idea of any
malice aforethought, and most conclusively shows that
the blows which resulted in death, were strnek in the
heat of passion; and
Whereas. It has been made known to me that the
condemned was brought to trial when the pnblio mind
was much excited, tho pressure of public opinion for
conviction was great, and in addition to the fact that
the counsel appointed to defend the said Henrietta
Greer at the time of her trial, is said to havo been
young and inexperienced, and failed to present the
evidence in its proper bearing to the jury:
Now, therefore, in consideration of the ficts and
circumstances aforesaid, and to the end that impartial
justice may bedone, I, Rufus B.Bullock.Governorand
Commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy of this
State and ofthe Militia thereof, by virtue of thepower
and authority in me vested by the Constitution and
Laws of this State, do hereby commute the said’sen-
tence of capital punishment so passed npon the said
Henrietta Greer as aforesaid, to imprisonment in the
Penitentiary of this State for and during her natural
life, and it is hereby
Ordered, That tho principal Keeper of said Peni
tentiary forthwith cause the said Henrietta Greer to
bo conveyed to and confined in said Penitentiary in
pursuance of, and in compliance with, the commuted
sentence aforesaid.

Recommended by the Medical Faculty and

who have used Rosadalis; send for onr
Rosadalis Guide to Health Book, or Alma
nac for this year, which we publish for
gratuitous distribution: it will give you
much valuable information:
■Dr. R. W. Carr, of Baltimore, says—I
take pleasure, in recommending your Kosa-
dalis as a very powerful alterative. I have
seen it used in two cases with happy results;
one in a case of secondary syphilis, in
which the patient pronounced himself
cured after having taken five bottles of
your medicine. The other is a case of
scrofula of long standing, which is rapidly
improving under its use, and the indica
tions are that the patient will soon recover.
I havo carefully examined the formula
by which your Rosadalis is made, and find
it an excellent compound of alterative in
gredients.
Dr. Sparks, of Nicholasville, Ky.. says he
has used Rosadalis in eases of Scrofula and
Secondary Syphilis with satisfactory re
sults—as a oleaner ofthe Blood I know no
better remedy.
Samuel G. McFadden, of Murfreesboro,

I have used seven bottles of Rosadalis,
and am entirely cured of Rheumatism;
send me four bottles, as I wish it for m
brother, who has Scrofulous Sore Eyes.
Boniamin Bechtol, of Lima, Ohio, writes:
I have suffered for twenty years with an
inveterate eruption over my wholebody: a
short time since I purchased a bottle of
Rosadalis and it effected a perfect cure.
