Cl BORGIA. NEWS. Cleanings and Winnowing* from our State Exchanges. Atlanta is somewhat clamorous tor a fire alarm‘telegraph. Mr. A. R. Bo wer r of Covington, knows a negro in Jasper county 130 years old. The Star says several weddings in Cov ington high life have been postponed. Hard times? Low cotton? Or what? The streets of Savannah are said to be fearfully filthy. Just wait until [next Summer and see what will be the result. On the Bth inst., Dr. Josiah Stoddard Byers, a nephew of the lamented Gen. Albert Sydney Johnston, died at Lula Junction, in this State. The following is from the Montgomery news column of the Dublin Post: “Mr. P. H. Hardman has lost two wives this year, and married again last week.” According to the Griffin News, the wheat fields throughout the countv looks encouraging. The grain in some locali ties is well up, and imparts a pleasing ap pearance to the agricultural landscape. The LaGrange Reporter wants to know why it is that if the Southern people are such remarkable specimens of baseness and wickedness, as the Northern radicals delight to describe them, these same rad icals were so anxious to keep them in the Union? A committe of five has been appointed by the Augusta society for the preven tion of cruelty to animals to draft suita able resolutions of condolence with her family upon the decease of Miss Louise W. King, the esteemed founder and patron ess of the society. The total cotton spindles in the North are now' estimated at about 9,900,000, and in the South 000,000, or a total in the country of 10,500,000. Of the 08,000,000 of the spindles employed in the manufac ture of cotton in 1876 the United States had in round numbers 10,000,000, and Great Britain 40,000,000. Calvin Brazail, charged with a murder alleged to have been committed by him in Rutland district of Bibb county, early ast mi inner, entered a plea of not guilty of murder, but guilty of voluntary man slaughter, in the supreme court of Ma con on Tuesday, and was sentenced to tw r o years in the penitentiary. Says the Waynesboro Expositor “"While it is true that our farmers have realized but little cash from their cotton over and above their expenses, it is also true that they have more hogs and corn this winter than for many years past. This is a most encouraging feature. When our people act upon the principle that they must live at home, wo will hear 1 ss of h ird times and see more of pros perity. God speed the day.” #'he Forest News, of Jackson county, says: “Mr. Frank Waddle is the boss far mer around this town. He has gathered all of his crop, consisting of eigteen bales of cotton and three hundred and thirty bushels of corn. This was made by him self and three boys, and his family was sick a good portion of the time, too. He has sowed eight bushels of wheat, clear ed and fenced in twenty acres of land, and is now ready to enjoy Christmas.” Win. Allen, of Jackson county, is the oldest of thirteen brothers, all of whom were in the war and met from different secti< us of the South on dress parade at Richmond, Virginia, at one time. Four only survived the conflict. Mr. Allen is now the father of fourteen children, all living—eleven sons, and three daughters —“and,” says the Gainesville Southron, “if anybody in America can beat this for patriotism, let him come to the front and take the belt. Mr. Joseph Jackson, of Talbotton, thinks that a pood fruit orchard has “mil lions in it.” He is, according to the Reg ister, “planting extensive orchards on his farm, three miles from town. He has already large orchards of all varieties of the peach, and has now in line growing condition five acres or apple trees. He estimates that the cider,” vinegar, etc., from the apples, and the hogs fattened on the peaches will lay king cotton out as cold as a wedge. It will he a profita ble enterprise. Forsyth Advertiser : “On Monday night of last week the depot office was brokf n into and about three hundred and fifty dollars and a fine silver mounted pistol taken therefrom. The robbers first ef fected an entrance into the saloon and from there into the office. Tne money and pistol were in a large chest in the office, which the robbers broke open. The robbery must have been committed by some one who knew exactly where the money was, as nothing else in the room was disturbed. We hope the guilty per sons will be caught and brought to jus tice.” Rome Courier: “The elegant new dwelling house just erected by Mr. W. E. Ward in the northern suburbsof this city was destroyed by fire last Sunday night about nine o’clock. The loss is estimated by Mr. Ward at over three thousand dol lars, on which there was insuran e to the amount of eighteen hundred dollars. Mr. Ward is a contractor and builder, and had a large collection of builder’s tools burned, on which there was no in surance. The origin of the fire is entire ly unknown, as the house was closed, and the workmen had left at half past five the evening before.” Says the Bulloch county News: “We would give our readers the account of a gentleman getting lost not long since near here —of losing his buggy—mount ing his horse bareback—riding under a limb in the branch—getting knocked off on a log, causing his box of parlor match es to ignite in his pocket—leading his horse through the woods—falling in a hole full of water—failing to find the road—staying in the woods all night— getting perfectly saturated by the drench ing rains, without any umbrella, or even matches with which to light his pipe— were it not that the gentleman affirmed that if we publish the same he will kill the editor and foreman; therefore we say nothing about it.” Augusta Chronicle: “The bi-monthly meeting board of directors of the Geor gia railroad was held yesterday morning in this city. Avery good attendance was on hand, Messrs. H. D. MaDaniel, T. L. Hutchins, of Gwinett, and Dr. J. L. Hamilton, of Athens, being the absen tees. A semi-annual dividend of three per cent, was declared, payable in ad vance of the usual time, which would be January 15. The report of the road’s earnings for the past two months was very fine, for, although the actual busi ness done is not as heavy as it has been, the savings to the corporation have been greater and the net realization more complete. Railroads now have to be run, as every other kind of business, up on an economical basis and prudent plan, and dividends must be earned more by diminishing expenses than by reaping enormous profits. The meeting was very harmonious and the result eminent ly satisfactory, as it places Georgia rail road stock firmly among the choice six per cent, securities ot the market. The condition of the road is very fine, the bus iness safe and the prospects cannot be but pleasing. There was manifested by the board not only satisfactorily acquie scence in the watchful care and excellent management of Gen. E. P. Alexander, President of the company, but in the language of a distinguished director, ‘a feeling of hearty indorsement and cor dial rtJ-opefrtition.’ ” BARTOW SUPERIOR COURT.

The cost of Peru, is within the region of perpetual southeast trade winds, and though the Peruvian shores are on the verge of the great southeast boiler, yet it never rains there. The reason is plain. The southeast trade winds in the Atlantic Ocean first strike the water on the coast of Africa. Traveling to the northwest they blow obliquely across the ocean until they reach the coast of Brazil. By this time they are laden with vapor, which they continue to bear along across the continent depositing it as they go, and supplying with it the sources of the Rio de la Plata and the southern tributa ries of the Amizon. Finally they reach the snow-capped Andes; here is wrung from them the last particle of moisture that a very low temperature can attract. Reaching the summit of that range, they now tumble down as cool as dry winds on the Pacific slope beyond. Meeting with evaporating surface and no temperature colder than that to which they were sub jected on the mountain tops, they reach the ocean. Thus we see how the tops ot the Andes become the reservoir from which are supplied the rivers of Chili and Peru. A German paper says that the names of generals connected with the most brilliant French victories are German. There are also very many German names among the officers of the French army of the present day. Evening journalism in St. Louis doesn’t seem to be profitable. One paper, with the Associated Press franchise, was knocked down for $25,000, another for $75(. The ex-editor of a defunct newspaper attributes his failure to the fact that he had been too stingy tc buy a waste basket. There is something in that remark when you study it. Hon. Bob Taylor, the juvenile Tennes see Congressman, is to be maried soon to Miss Sallie Baird, of Buncombe, N. 0., a niece of Gtov. VancSe. VEGETINE Purifies the Bio and and Gives Strength.

M Dc"' sir-Yofif S “Vegetinc" has to" dojtw South, noting giving me relief until I began the use of your Vegetine, it giving me immediate re lief, toning up my system, purifying my blood, giving strength; whereas all other medicines weakened me, and filled my system with poison, and I am satisfied that if families that live in the ague districts of the South and W est would take Vegetine two or three times a week, they would noth e troubled with the chills or the malignant fevers that prevail at certain times of the year, save doctor’s bills, and live to a goodold.age. Respectfully yours, J. E. MITCHELL., Agent Henderson’s Rooms, St. Louis, Mo. All Diseases of the Blood. —If V egetine will relieve pain, cleanse, purify, and core such diseases, restoring the patient to perfect health, after trying different physicians, many remedies, suffering for years, is it not conclusive proof, if you are a sufferer, you can be cured? why is this medicine performing such great cures, it works in the blood, in the circulating fluid. It can truly be called the Creat Blood Purifier. The creat source of disease originates in the blood; and no medicine that does not oct direc - ly upon it, to purify and renovate, has any just claim upon public attention. VEGETINE Has Entirely Cured me of Vertigo. Cairo, 111., Jan. 23, 1878. Mr. H. R. Stevens: , , Dear Sir—l have used several bottles of \ eg etine; it has entirely cured me of Vertigo. I have also used it for kidney complaint. It is the best medicine for kidney complaint. I would recommend it as a eood blood purifier. N. lOCUM. Pain and Disease.— Can we expect to enjoy good health when bad or corrupt humors circu late with the blood, causing pain and diseases; and these humors being deposited through the entire hody, produce pimples, eruptions, ulcere, indigestion, costiveness, headaches, neuralgia, rheumatism, and numerous other complaints t Remove the cause by taking Vegetine, the most reliable remedy jor cleansing and purifying the blood. VEGET I N E I Believe it to be a Good Medicine. Xenia, 0., March 1, 1877. Mr. Stevens: Dear Sir—l wish to inform you that your Veg etine has done for me. I have been afflicted with Neuralgia, and after using three bottles of the Vegetine was entirely relieved. I also found my general health much improved. I believe it to e a good medicine. Yours truly, FRED HARVERSTICK. Vegetine thoroughly oradicates every kind of humor, and restores the entire system to a healthy condition. VEG ET 11ST E Druggist’s Report. H. R.

THE KIMBALL HOUSE IS ADMITTED to be the finest hotel building in the Soutnern States, and the equal in interior ele fance and comfort of any in the whole country! he entire building will be thoroughly com pleted, and all the rooms will be newly and lux uriously furnished throughout. The lessees on tnoir part will spare neither labor or money in their personal efforts to con duct the business in such a way as to make THE KIMBALL HOUSE worthy of the most liberal patronage. They re fer to the high reputation of the several hotels now under their management (the Arlington and Norvill Houses in Lynchburg, and the Ar lington. in Danville, Va.) as an evidence oi their ability to carry out their promises in good faith. With ample means auu resources, they do not hesitate to pledge to the people of Geor- S'a especially, as well as of the whole country, at THE KIMBALL HOUSE will be kept up to so high standard of excellence as to delight all who may seek pleasure and com fort under its roof. The city of Atlanta enjoys well-merited fame for the liealthfulness and salubrity of its climate, being 1100 feet above sea level; and hence is be coming both a favorite Summer and. Winter Resort. Its splendid elevation fortifies it against the en croachment of malarial diseases, and exempts it from the enervating influences peculiar to many less favored localities. Atlanta has proven in vulnerable to the visitations of yellow fever and cholera, and is accepted as a suitable point of refuge for exiles from districts infected with those epidemics.
