PARTICULAR NOTICE
F#OM JOHN PEEK.
This is to notify everybody that is in
debted to me that I am down with a bad
complaint, which can only be cured by the
payment of what you owe me. I must
have money, or I will get sick sure enough.
You have purchased my goods on a long
credit and have destroyed them and ate
them up, and I have been very lenient
with you, but have turned over anew leaf
this day, and if you don't pay me at once
lam going to wake you up. When John
Peek sets his head to collect what he has
owing him the money must come, and you
had better come at once. 162

Business is flush—better than ever be
fore at this season. A heavy demand for
for all kinds of goods. The dcmnml for
heavy goods, such as meat, salt, bagging,
ties, Ac., is so strong that it is doubtful if
the supply that has been laid in will I*
sufficient. Sales up to this time have ex
ceeded all expectations. Collections bet
ter than ever before. Cotton is pouring in
from all quarters. Up to this time there
has been five hundred bales sold, of which
Gairdner, Arnold A Cos. have bought half.
The collections and sales of this house
amounted on Saturday last to two thou
sand dollars, which is slightly more titan
any day for the past two weeks. The
safes of this house alone up to this time
amount to more than tho salos of the en
tire tow n for any season up to last season.
Taking this as a basis, s very correct esti
mate can bo tirade of the amount of busi
ness that will be done this season, and n
very clear idea esn be drawn of the im
provement of the town since the building
of the railroad. All of the merchants and
clerks nre constantly employed.
Joseph .Strauss, who has lately opened
here, is doing well, and is perfectly satis
tied with what he has done and Ins pros
pects for the future. He lint n splendid
stock and sells at exceedingly low prices.
The steam gins owned respectively by
F. D. McMillan and AV. B. Jones, are
among the most convenient of Elberton’s
improvements. They gin about twenty
hales each every 24 hours, which amount
is placed on the market every day from
this source. It is being hauled from all
sections of the county and from other
counties. We noticed some from Hart
last week, and on asking why it was
brought from such a distance, was told
that once having the cotton on the wagon,
it is as cheap to bring it to Elberton. have
it ginned and carry the money and seed
hack as it would he to have it ginned else
where, haul the cotton and seed home, then
haul the cotton to market.
Among other improvements, we learn
that there is a project on foot to survey
and make a map of the entire county. It
will he done by individuals who will de
pend for pay upon selling tho maps after
they have been printed.
A man named Maxwell was committed
to jail last Friday in default of a two hun
dred dollar bond. under the charge of at
tempting to commit a rape upon a respec
table married lady, who livesjust outside
of the incorporation. Her husband was
absent from home at the time the attempt
was made. The bond, although it is light,
is more than the prisoner can give ; he
will, therefore, remain in jail until March
Court. The prisoner has a wife and one
child, who are dependent for sustenance
upon his daily labor. We feel sorry for
the wife and child, and commend them to
the charity of tho public, and hope that
upon further reflection the good lady will
come to tho conclusion that she was mis
taken—that in reality the man had no evil
intentions. The prisoner claims to have
been drunk. Wo would like to give the
particulars, hut fear our communication
would ho too long were we to do so.
The burial of Mr. James. S. Jones, who

attempt to cure had leg* by plastering the edge* of
the wound together in n fully; for should the skin
unite, a boggy diseased condition remain* under
neath to break out with tenfold fury in a few days.
The only rational and anceemiful treatment, a* indi
cated h\ nature, is to reduee the intlammation in and
about tli© wound and to soothe the nelgntiortnc; part*
hy rubbing in plenty of the Ointment, ns salt is forc
ed into meat. This w ill rause the malignant humor*
to he drained otl from the hard, swollen, and diseol
ored parts round ulsmt the wound, sore, or ulcer,
and w hen tin•*© humor* are removed, the wound*
themselves will soon heal; warm bread and water
poultice* applied over the affected part*, after the
Ointment liu* been well rublied in, will soothe nud
soften the mini© and gfteat 1 y assist the cure. There
is a description of ulcer, sort* and swelling, which
need not l>c named here, attendant, upon the tollies
of youth, and for which thi* Ointmcut is urgently
recommended as a sovereign remedy. In curing
•uich poisonous sores it never tail* to restore Mo* sys

tp the printed instruction*.
Diphtheria, Ulcerated Sore Throat Scar

Any of lli<* rtbovt* diiuviMi** may b* uiirml by well*
rubbing the Ointment three time* a day into tlio
cheat, throut. and nook of tin* patient; it will noon

hy the mouth miiMt operate u|mii the whole HyHtem
ere it* iuiltieiieo can lie felt in any local part, wherea*
the Ointment will do it* work at onee. Whoever
trio* tiie niitfiieiit in the above manner for th© tli*
etiaea nani<*t. or any *imil:r dlaorder* iiflectintj the
cheat and throat, na ill find theiiiHelve* relieved a* by

envelop the tli mat at bed time in a large bread and
water ponltiee, after the tHntmeiit ha* been well
rubbed in ; it will great 1\ u**i*t the cure of tho

of the cli<**t, cither from HHtbnm or other ranee*.
Piles, Fistulas, Strictures.
Tli<* above clhgn of complaint* will bo removed by
nightly foinetifinu I lie part* with warm water, and
then b\ most etl’et tually rubbing in tlio Ointment.
IVrMnii* NiifteriiifC from Hum* direful complaint*

It sliuiild Ini iiudeiHtood that it is not autHeientmere
ly to smear the Ointment uii the uflccted parts, but
it must he well rnldied in for a considerable time two
or three times a da\. that it may be taken into the
system, whence it will remove any hidden sore or
wound as effectually as though pal nu bio to the eye.
There ognin bread and water rnmUuvu, after Lite rub

is, the only *nrc treatment for females, eases of enn*

the pills taken night and morning, as lvcominendetfr
in the printed Inst ructions. When treated In any
other way they only dry up in one place to hrouk out
in another; whereas this Ointment will remove tho
humor from the system, and leave the patient a vig
orous and healths being. It will require time w ith
tho use of the Pills to insuro u lasting curt.
Dropsical Swellings, Paralysis and Stiff
Joints.
Although the ill Hire complaints differ widely in
their origin ami nature, yet they all require local
treatment. Many of the worst cases of such lii*-
casus will yield in a comparatively short space of
time when’this Ointment is diligently rubbed into
the parts affected, oveu after every other means have
