The marriage of Miss Ruby
Horton and Mr. Jesse Gunn oc
curred Sunday night in Colquitt
in the presence of one or two
friends that accompanied them
to that city. The marriage was
a Gretna Green affair and only a

They are receiving the congratu

SOUTH GEORGIA IN I8G0
DEPICTED IN PAPER
Copy of The Southern-
Georgia Watchman Dat
ed June 12,1860, is Found
Mr. W. R. Wells, son of the
late Berry Wells, living near
Adel, has an old newspaper,
“The Southern-Georgia Watch
man’’ published in Valdosta in
1858. The date on the paper in
June 12, 1860. The editor of the
sheet was Col. Lernoreon D. De-
Lyon. The paper is well preserv
ed for its age and it contains
many things of interest to re
sidents of this section.
Among the interesting state
ments is one to the effect that
subscribers are requested to call
at the office of the Watchman for
their papers until the post office
was organized, which was anti
cipated at an early date.
There is mention of the fact
that in spite of the village being
only a few short months old the
wells of fine water supply plenty
of cool drinks for man and beast
and it is further stated that there
are never sultry nights in the
little village as a breeze always
springs up to relieve the heat.
Cool nights and splendid water
are two of Valdosta’s boasts
even to this good day.
There is an interesting account
of the secession convention in
Milledgeville, at which time a
majority of the convention voted
to affirm the “action of majority
of our delegation in the Charles'
ton convention, reappointing the
entire Charleston delegation to
represent the Georgia demo
cracy in the Richmond conven
tion and also in the Baltimore
convention in the event that
body adopts a platform recogniz-
the constitutional rights of the
south as indteated in the resolu
tions referred to and nominate
sound candidates thereupon.
The minority members of the
convention “neither indorses nor
condemns the action of the
Georgia delegates at Charleston;
reaffirms the Cincinnati platform;
recognizes theDred Scott decision
as the correction exposition of
the constitution in regard to the
equal rights of every citizen to
settle with his property in the
Territories; 'substantially pledges
the support of the democratic
party in Georgia to any nominee
of the Baltimore convention who
will give his indorsement to this
proposition and suggest the ap
pointment of a new delegation to

older than Valdosta and for this
reason were farther advanced at
the time of printing the paper.
Interesting advertisements ap
pear of lotteries in various parts
off the country. Havana lotteries
on sale at Savannah predominate.
The paper was the official

Brooks and Lowndes counties and
advertisements of sales and other
legal notices Trom these counties
appear.
Mr. Wells is-keeping the paper
as a curiosity and remembrance
of the times past and gone,
Explaining the record-break
ing demand for Tanlac, G. F.
Willis, southern representative
for L. T. Cooper, manufacturer
of the celebrated medicine, stat
ed recently in Atlanta that the
thousands of questions were be
ing asked all ever the south re
garding it make it imperative
that some explanation be made
to satisfy the public interest.
At this point Mr. Willis quoted
from one of Mr. Cooper’s recent
lectures, in which he said: “Of
all the distressing conditions
that afflict humanity, chronic
dyspepsia is probably the most
prevalent. This most universal
malady has baffled the medical
profession for years, and the
most skilled specialists have been
unable to cope with it success
fully.
‘ ‘Hours might be consumed in
describing the sufferings, mental
and physical, of the sufferers of
chronic dyspepsia and their fail
ure heretofore to get relief. A
morbid, unreal, whimsical and
melancholy condition of the
mind, aside from the nervous
ness and physical suffering, is
the usual condition of the aver
age dyspeptic, and life seems
scarcely worth the living, Dys
pepsla, or indigestion, as the Case
may be, is caused by the taking
of too much food, or unsuitable
food, and the mucous membrane
of the stomach becomes irritated
and there is set an acute or sub
acute gastric catarrhal condition
which prevents the proper di
gestion of the food. This food
is apt to ferment and decompose
and as a result the familar dis
tressing symptoms of dyspepsia
may arise. In mild cases there
is nothing more than an uncom
fortable feeling in the stomach,
with a certain amount of depres
sion, headache, loss of appetite
perhaps belching of gas and oc
casional vomiting. There may be
also acompanying intestinal sym
ptoms, such as constipation, and
pains in the back, colic, etc.
There may be only the familiar
heartburn due to the inflamraa
tion of the stomach due from ex
cessive gases of fermentation or
putrefaction, mo *t severe
caiei-those that last for a day
twe-the Symptoms enumerated
may be much more intetisA Th.C
distress may be marked and the
general csnstMutlonal symytoms
more evident. When this stage
is reached the loss of appetite,
the mental depression and the
general uncomfortable feeling in
the stomach are much more pro
nounced, This is partically true
*iy, | is gastritis,
“It frequently occurs from con
ned errors in diet and this
( th>n becomes chronic, and
vtoms persist for an in
blatantly advertised in the daily
press, many of them being noth
ing more than alcoholic bever
ages, and their use is not un
attended with a great deal of
danger. The treatment of cons
tipation that is so frequently an
accompaniment of dyspepsia by
means of patent pills, calomel,
powders and purgatives is posit
ively harmful.
“I am convinced,” continued
Mr. Cooper, “that the stomach
regulates the condition of the
blood and is the fountain head of
health or disease, as the case
may be. My medicine is intend
ed primarily for the regulation
of the stomach and the catarrhal
inflamation, but it is no un
common thing for persons who
have used it to come to me and
explain that it has relieved them
of rheumatism and many ail
ments not generally recognized
in having their origin in stomach
trouble.”
Tanlac is sold by leading
druggists in all the princinal
cities of the south.
Tanlac is sold in Bainbridge
exclusively by Willis Drug Co.,
and in Donalsonville by the Pal
ace Drug Co., and Climax by the
