r
ria is a germ disease. Germs
find their way into the blood
ihrougli tho mucous metubrnes.
If the mucous membranes are
healthy tlie gevnia can noi enter
iho blood. This is why some

But if the membranes are
fectnd by* catarrh, even slightly,
the malaria germs find easy

At n special term of Clayton
S'.inerior court, held at Jonesboro
this week, Jno. R. McCullough,
charged with lhe killing of his
wil'e in June. ISi'li. was tried for
the second time. As in the form¬
er trial. the jun was unable to
agree upon a verdiet and a mistri¬
al was declared. It is claimed
. that polities played an important
j art in the case. It is alleged
tlinl n number of populists were
for ncquitul owing to the fact that
Hon. Tims. E. Watson was of
counsel for the defense. Tile the
t-rv is hardly plausible fora dein
ceratic juror was among the mini
lev who stood for acquittal while
p number of populists were for
conviction. Wo arc personally
Acquainted with some of the jn
rnrs whom it is said were for *o
quilal and they arc among the
lest citizens of Clayton county,
i nd they arc not men to lie in
ltuenced by party prejudices.
Solicit'a- Hill, so we are inform¬
ed. stated, after the case went to
the jury, that lie had failed to es¬
tablish a motive and that anoth¬
er mistrial might Ite expected.
Col. Jno. 14. Hutcheson, who
lias ably defended McCullough
from tie first, prepared the case
