The Union Prayer Meeting.
Hark, the church bell now i& pealing*
Christian, turn from worldly care,
Haste thee to the Union Meeting,
Offer there thy fervent prayer;
* God will hear thee,
He will meet the 9,
And his b'eseing thouehalt share,
When to him you bow in prayer.
There one hour in pure devotion,
Supplicate God’a throne of grace.
Labor for the lost’s salvation,
Labor for a sinful race—
Do your duty,
Ask for mercy,
Press on in thy Christian race,
Christ will show his smiling lace*
Sinner, hear the joyful tidings,
Turn thee from thy sinß away;
God hi* mercy is bestowing,
He will hear when thou dost pray;
‘J urn and seek him,
Ask his blessing,
Ask it now without delay,
Seek him while ’tis called to-day.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
Georgia Greys Armory, )
Columbus, Georgia, May 27, 1858. $
At a meeting of the corps the following preamble and
resolutions were adopted in respect to the memory of our
deceased brother:
Whereas, It has pleased God in his alwise providence to
bereave us, for the first time since our organ ization, by
the removal from our ranks of our beloved brother, Jas.
H. Harris, in the full bloom of youth, while life was all
bright and joyous. He was stricken down by the resist
less hand of death, reminding us that man is as the flower
in the field, in the “morning it flourisheth and groweth
up, and in the evening it is cut down and withered; but
as we sincerely hope and believe he has been taken from
this life to a bright world beyond the skies, where the wea
ry are at rest and where the righteous shall shine forth in
tho kingdom of their father—therefore,
Resolved, That in the death of James II Harris the,
Georgia Greys have lost a valuable and iaithlul member
a true and constant friend, a tried and generous compan
ion.
Resolved, That we wear the usual badge of mourning
thirty days.
Resolved , That our heartfelt sympathies are enlisted
with the relatives and friends of our deceased and much
beloved brother at his untimely end.
Resolved, That these resolutions be spread on the min
utes of the company, and a copy be furnished the relatives
of our deceased brother, and the same be published in the
city papers*

PRESENTMENTS
Of the Grand Jury of Muscogee County , May
Term , 1858.
WE, the Grand Jurors, sworn, chosen and selected as
the first pannel of the county of Muscogee, beg
leave to make the following report:
We report the roads throughout the county as being in
fair condition, and present the following bridges in a di
lapidated and dangerous condition, to wit: The two near
P. J Biggers: the one known as Lindsays, the one on the
Talbotton road across Bull Creek; Schley’s on the old
Macon road; all on.the old Alabama road; one on Upa
toie, at Upatoie.
We recommend the Inferior Court to enforce the con
tract with Col. Bates, and require him to put said Bridges
in a good and sale condition; also require them kept in
said condition. _ , . . ,
We have examined the Jail, and hud it in cleanly con
dition, and from appearance well kept by the vigilant
Jailor, P. P. Robinson, Esq. In examining the security,
we must say, we think it tolerably safe just now, but must
soon become very insecure from the general dilapidated
condition of the building. We findtheroof leaking,walls
very much cracked, wood part of windows quite rot
ten, and soon will become of no service as lastenersto the
iron bars. We think the location a bad one: the con
struction bad, and inconvenient to manage prisoners, and
think it unwise to repair the old structure. Also recom
mend the building (so soon as the Inferior Court think it
expedient to raise the money.) a good and substantial stone
Jail, to be located in the centre of the south portion of the
Court House square, lrom ihe best plan that can be secured
adapted to our climate and the sale-keeping ol the in
mates. ,
We find that the Court House has undergone some re
pairs—new roof and painted. &c., —and requires no imme*
diate attention for the present.
VVe find, from examination that tho Court ot Ordinary
has received the following sums as a Poor School Fund,
for the education of 891 children, in tho county of Mus
cogee:
Amount received from the State 8 520
Taxes for the year 1857 2,400
Total amount for education $2,920
Deduct amount as per expenses 150
Leaving a balance of. $2,770
Which amount will pay teachers, for the year 1857, five
cents per day for each scholar upon their bills.
At the last session of the General Assembly of the State
of Georgia .an act was passed and assented to 17th Dec
ember, i857, by which certain changes were made relative
to the education of the poor. By the act above referred to
it provides that children shall be entitled to the benefit of
the Poor School Fund who are between the ages of six
and eighteen years of age, instead of the ages ot eight aud
sixteen’, which will of course increase the number of chil
dren, and the aggregate amount of’ tuition will be
much larger. It is difficult to say what amount of tax
will be required to pay the present rate. We recommend
the Ordinary to levy a tax ot 30 per cent upon the State
tax tor educational purposes.
We have examined the Tax Collector’s Books and his
condition with the county and State. We find the books
properly kept, and that the collector has satisfied us that
the taxes collected for the State have been paid over to
the proper officer, and also the taxes due the county have
all been paid over, with the exception ot a small fraction,
which he promises io settle when the amount ot the insol
vent list is fully allowed by the Inferior Court.
We find an evil in our community which should be sup- i
pressed. We allude to the practice of oegfoes hiring their
own time, and living on lots separate from their owners or
guardians, which is a great annoyance to many ot our
best citizens. , _ . ...
We would also call the attention of our city authorities,
especially, to the negro wagon yard, in the upper end ot
the city, kept on Oglethorpe street, which we deem one ot
the"great evils o* the country.
We would respectfully recommend to the .Legislature
of Georgia important changes in the law on the subject
of education. A system of common school education we
believe to be preferable. If the present system is to be
continued, we believe that in every county authority should
bo given to some person orpersODSto examine teachers as
to their qualifications and competency, and that a certifi
cate of competency should be indispensable in every in
stance, to enable the teacher to draw pay lrom the public
fund- More ample and specific authority should be given
the School Commissioners in the investigation of teachers’
accounts submitted to them. .
In closing our labors, we beg leave to tender to their
honors Judges Worrill and Bull our profound respect for
the ability and impartial manner in which they have dis
charged the duties incumbent upon them during the pres-
ent term. , ,
We also take great pleasure in extending our thanks to
Solicitor General Oliver, for the able and efticieut dis
charge of his duties and his polite attention to this body.

AGE AND DEBILITY.
As old age comes creeping on, it brings with it many
attendant infirmities. Loss of appetite and weakness im
pair the health, and want of activity makes the mind dis
contented and unhappy. In cases where old age adds its
influence, it is almost impossible to add vigor and health,
and although many remedies have been tried, all have fail
ed until Boerhave's Holland Bitters were known and
used. In every case where they have been employed they
have invariably given strength and restored the appetite.—
They have become a great agent for this alone, and are
used by many people who are suffering from loss of appe
tite and general debility. In cases ot long standing chron
ic diseases, they act as a charm, invigorating the system,
thus giving nature another opportunity to repair physical
injuries

We actually feel sorry for those bilious, jaundiced
faces which we meet every day >n the street, that they do
not buy a bottle of SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR, and
clear up to a healthy hue and ruddy color their dark com
plexions. By the use of one bottle they will find our
statement true, and their general health greatly improved,
or we will forfeit another bottle, and guarantee they will
never be without it in their families.

Chronic Diarrhoea for the past twenty-two years, and had
consulted and received prescriptions for his case from all
the principal Physicians in Philadelphia and Cincinnati,
but all to no effect, as he recrived no relief. At last he
was reduced to a mere skeleton, wthout even the hope of
ever finding relief, but by the advice of a friend, was in
duced to try Hastetter’s celebrated Stomach Bitters, and,
to his utter surprise, found relief from the. first trial, and in
less than two months found himself perfectly cured of his
complaint, and is daily recovering his strength of body, and
increasing in flesh ; and cheerfully gives this certificate, in
Hfhe hope that others afflicted like himself may be benefited.

do well make a trial of its remedial qualities, and should
it prove as represented in all cases of the
KIDNEYS, BLADDER AND URETHRA,
it would be found not only a convenient remedy, but an
agreeable one to your patients. The formula for this
aration was suggested and perfected by several eminent
Physicians, who felt the want ot a reliable article, in a
convenient form, for their own practice; and by them and
hundreds of others, it has been used for years, always with
the happiest results. In all diseases of the
URINARY AND GENITAL ORGANS,
it is a remedy safe, speedy and efficient, and can

Diseases, it will be found most admirably adapted, and if
taken according to directions, will very seldom if ever fail
in effecting a speedy a: and permanent Cure.
