R. Weston, Secretary. Communicated. Schools of Duivreii, H E ALTH E U LN ESB, If this artido forces us to use occa s.onally terms belonging to scientific technology, we ask pardon. We shaH only invoke such torms when necessa ry- Dawson is charged with being sick ly. AVo shall examine tho philosophy, tho facts and tho history pertaining to this subject. First—As to the philosophy of this subject. It is charged that Dawson is exposed and incidont to thoso agen cies that produce febrile diseases—in termittent, remittont and continued. A\ o deny this charge. We propose to vindicate its healthfulnoss. What aro the agencies or causes that produce febrile diseases ? Hero we tread de batable ground. Here is as yet noth ing but theory, hypothesis, specula tion. Chemists aro not agreed. The most learned medical authors disa gree. Scientific principles are as yet not ascertained here. Popular con viction and impression is not always truth. Error is often universal and inveterate. Tho causes universally assigned as tho agents producing febrile diseases, aro : Heat, moisture, vegetable decom position, animal decomposition, car bonic acid, malaria or miasmata. As to heat and moisture. Doubt less Dawson will not suffer in compar ison in these respects with Amcricus or Cutlibert. Is tho atmosphere of Dawson more moist than that of the other places ? Would a rain-guago in Dawson and Ainericus indicate an excess in favor of Dawson ? The best mcteriologists, such as Humbolt and Maury, tell us that the annual fall of rain is greatost at the equator, that it decreases towards tho poles. Local causes occasionally make exceptions to this law, such as mountains, table lands, 4c. Cutlibert and Dawson are approximately on the same parallel, Americus about thirty miles North of this place. So small a difference in latitude can scarcely produce an ap preciable difference in moisture or in temperature. Is it not then fair to put these points on equal grounds in respect of moisture and heat 'i Carbonic, acid and electricity are in visible agencies diffused through the air. Their presence or their absence may exercise an influence on the health of a locality. Can any investi gation as to the presence or absence of these principles prove that they aro in greater or less quantity in one of theso towns tliau another. Thoso forces that generate and disseminate them, operate uniformly and with equal in tensity in South Georgia. As to animal putrefaction. Wo do not losemany animals iu this way hero. Wo fatten and kill and eat nearly all that die. Should natural death occa sionally take one as a victim, tho re mains are speedily carried to a safe distance from our limits. Ever watch ful birds and animals of the genus carnivora aro on the alert, and speed ily the dissolving mass is devoured. So far as tho agencies discussed are concerned, we 6ce no reason for ad judging preference or inferiority for Americus, Culhbort or Dawson. If they affect health when isolated or when in combination, one placo is as much exposed a3 the other, one is ns exempt as the other. We now ap proach the subject of malaria. Let us without prejudice or favor examine the grounds nud causes of compara tive exemption or exposure to this fearful agency. That Dawson has been exposed to two sourcos of malarious agency we admit. That her salubrity has par tially suffered therefrom, we grant. — One of theso sources is a pond of wa ter within tho limits of the corpora tion whoso area does not exceed half an acre. It is with pleasure that we announce to tho public tho removal of this cause of febrile disease. Our authorities have lately had this pond thoroughly urained and the basin thereof effectually disinfected. Hence forth this can exercise no agency un favorable to the health of our town. Dawson is, however, yet exposed to one cause of febrile disease. Wo must be faithful to ourselvos, to our com munity and to the interests of that ed ucational enterprise whose location iu our midst we solicit. W 0 are partial ly exposed to the miasmatic agency of a small stream about one mile from our town. The exposure is slight and partial. There is no staguant water from tbis causo, no vegetable decom position. Drainage, tillage, &c havo removed these causes. The channel of the creek within a given range of Dawson ought to be made straight and direct. AVaters flowing from our hill-sides to this creek should not be al lowed to stand on tho low grounds in tho creek valley, then slowly evapor ate or sink into the earth. This is deleterous to our bigienic state. Wo have now tho worst side of the case against Dawson. Rut we must do jus tice to her. Let us not depreciate her in this behalf. She shrinks not from facts or history. Before next September, 12 months, or the next sickly season, the work will bo done. It is a small job. It is our interest to do it. Our public spirit as a community requires it.— Our committal to tho public as an ed ucational point, binds us to it under the force of a positive engagement.— a lie instincts of self preservation stim ulate us to theso improvements. AA o havo naught to say against Cuthbort or Americus. AA’e shall not seek in aught to depreciato a claim of our worthy competitors. Let others treat us as they choose—wo shall al ways be just and polito towards our neighbors. But wo must appeal to tho committee whose honor and duty it shall bo to decide this question on September 15th. Take Americus Cuthbert, Dawson—spread out a map before you of their topography res pectively, mark the ponds, lakes, creeks, swamps, distances of each from tho public square, position and relationship in placo to season winds, and answer if Dawson cannot claim equality hero with her honorable com petitors. Let the physicians of all these places sign and present certificates of mor tality for a given length of time, to the honorable committee, and let them, from a presentation of the facts in each case, render a verdict. — A\ T e fear not tho comparison. We waive theory and hypothesis, and abide history and facts. Experience on this point is better than pliylosoph io disquisition. Our drainage iu tho immediate cor porate limits is perfect, our streets cleanly, our lots, oellarß, yards, out houses are kept under strict scrutiny by public authority, in accordance with the laws of health. AVith the public works, the judicious precau tions, tho internal economy of our cor porate authorities, tho prosecution to an early and successful completion of this last work in behalf of health, we with confidence - submit the Dawson to this much re spected tribunal. Located as she is, on a high site, falling waters rapidly, immediately flow off, no vegetable de composition, no known cause of mias matic agency within or noar her lim its, on the tertiary formation, not a trace of the cretaceous or carbonifer ous here coming to the surface, her water-bearing stratum affording rills of pure, cool, wholesome, abundant water, how can Dawson be condemned as intrinsically an unhealthy point. Let justice be done, let truth be sought, let the comparative merits of tho case decide, and wo believo the claims of Dawson on tbis score not inferior to those of other points. A Citizen. (Jo le continued.) Kentucky Gives Fifty Thousand Democratic Majobity.— Official re turns received at tho Ledger office from thirty-nine counties show that Leslie is receiving not only the largest Democratic vote over polled in Ken tucky, but absolutely the largest vote ever polled for any man of any party in tho State. His vote in three coun ties exceeds by 904 the \ oto cast for Seymour iu tho same counties in 1868, and exceeds the vote east for Steven son that year in tho same counties by 2,154. The vote cast for the Demo cratic Congressional ticket in those countios last November, when the ne gro vote was first polled at a general election, was only 87,705. For Les lie at the late election those counties gave 55,384 votes, a gain of 17,689. The aggregate Democratic majority in 1870 was 82,214. Loslio’s majori ties in tliirty-nino countios exceed those of 1870 by 4,461 his majority will reach near 50,000. Unofficial reports from about half tho counties of the State 6how that while Harlan has polled a heavy negro vote, there has been a heavy defection of white men from the Radical party, and if tho whole Democratic vote had been polled, it would have reached at least 130,000. An exchango asks: “Why was Phil. Sheridan made an LLD.?” It was be cause there happened to be a collogd in Chicago with fools for a faculty. Special A'oliccs. Debility and Emaciation. Both result from tbe lack ot ability to con vert the food into nutriment. How necessa ry, then, for those enfferir.g from these alarm ipg symptoms to immediately resort to a remedy that will stiengthen the stomach and digestive organs. For, as soon as this desir able object has been accomplished the health improves, and the patient resumes bis usual personal appearance, llostetter’s Stomach Bitters have attained a world-wide populari ty in such cases, and have been proveu the best and safest meaus of removing constipa tion, tODiug tbe stomach, giving energy to the liver, and relieving every symptom of nervou-ness and depression of spirits'. Its cheering and beneficiul effects arc highly spoken of t»y thousands, who owe to it their restoration to health. No rostorative iu the annals of medicine has attained the same popularity in the short space of time it has been before the public, or has wou the high endorsements accorded to this excellent ton ic. J/any other pieparatisus, purporting to be correotivcs and restoratives, have been introduced, and have perished, one by one, w hile tbe popularity of Hoatettcr’g Stomach Bitters continues to increase, and is now re ergnized as a standard household medicine. The success which attends the use of the Bitters evinces at once its virtues in ail cases of debility and disease of the stomach, Cer tificates, almost without number, have been published, attesting its traly miraculous pow er in removing those painful and fearful dies eases. And at this time it seems idle to do more than call attention to the great reme dy of the age, in order to awaken public at tenton its excclence. It is the only ireparatiou of tbe kind that is reliable in all cases and it is therefore wotlliy of the con sideration of the aflhoted OWEN NELSON INSTITUTE, DAWSON, GA. FACULTY: Rev. J. K.

In calling the ntlonti'n of planters to our Cotton Gins, wa desire that they should notice the improvements we offer, which are substantially as follows ; .A. PORT.A T3IYK ROLL BOX, For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grate, is used ; the object of which it> to improve in the quantity ginned, lessen the quantity and improve the quality ot lint. Also, to gin damp or wet cotton; to altor the picking or separating the lint from thi seed—either to take more lint off, or less lint from tho seed, ns circumstances require. We use both the common Roll Box snd a Swinging Front. Tho latter is arranged to let out all the seeds and bulls in a moment, and is very easily managed. TJHK BRUSH We meke, eannoi be excelled by any hair brush used. The bristles are all drawn in by a cord, and the timber is nil selected from the best lumbor, well stasoned • and every brush is made perfectly fire nnd rat proof.
