The Ordinary of Troup county has pur
chased a farm of 200 acres, just outside
LaGrangc, for a couuty pauper farm. The
price paid was $4,000.
“ Markham’s Block," on Peachtree street,
Atlanta, was sold Thursday. The three
stores brought SIO,OOO, $0,950, and $8,950,
respectively.
The Savannah Neios is rejoicing over an
anticipated visit of Grau’s German Opera
Troupe at an early day, with Mine. Johann
sen. Miss Amelia Jackson, Weinlich,
Formes, and other celebrated artistes.
On Friday fifty recruits for the United
States artillery arrived in Savannah.
Twenty-five remained at Oglethorpe Bar
racks and twenty-five were sent to Fort
Pulaski on Saturday by the steamer.
Judge Sessions has dissolved the injunc
tion against the Brunswick and Albany
Railroad, retraining the use of the bonds
issued to it.
The Atlanta Constitution reDorts that
001. Hulbert has been made the General
Superintendent of the Brunswick and Al
bany Railroad, with a salary of ten thou
sand dollars, and has entered upon the du
ties of the position.
The Atlanta Era flaunts the following
names as Republican nominees for officers
of the House of Representatives: For
Speaker, Hon. Robert L. McWhorter, of
Greene county; for Clerk, John L. Newton,
Esq., of Glynn county; for Door-Keeper,
Alexander H. Gaston, of Bibb county; for
Messenger, Moses H. Bently, of Chatham
county. The two latter are negroes,
which, singularly enough for a sheet of its
professed convictions, the Era neglects to
dignify with the “ Esq.”
The Brunswick Appeal says quite a num
ber of strangers have come to that city,
purchased property, and are building resi
dences and business houses, with a view to
making it their permanent home. The
same papfer notes the ominous existence of
thirteen bar rooms and eleven retail liquor
establishments.
Louis Moreau Gottschalk.— The steam

from Rio Janeird, brings announcement of
the death of Louis M. Gottschalk, the cele
brated American pianist, on the 18th of
December, at Tijuca, near Rio Janeiro,
after an Illness of three weeks. Louis
Gottschalk was a native of New Orleans,

mentioned “Apotheose,” “ Marche de Unit,"
“ Chaut de Soldat,” “ Bamboula,” ** Ban

Emigration. — The Memphis Avalanche
sajs that the tide of white emigration
from Georgia, East Tennessee, Virginia
and North Carolina continues on as sarge
a scale as ever. It places the arrivals there
by the Memphis and Charleston Railroad
from November 7th to December 31st, at
3,175, of whom 410 were destined for Gal
vestou and vicinity. The great bulk were
passing on to the Red river country and
Arkansas. They are represented as being
for the most part of the poorer classes of
farming people, but possessed of some little
means, which they design investing |n the
cheap lands of the southwest. They spoke
of thousands more who will follow in their
wake. , _ .

HEALTH’S BEST DEFENSE.
“ The weak eateth herbs,” say3 Bt. Paul, so that
eighteen hundred years ago the value of medicinal
‘plants was appreciated In the Old Testament bo
tanical remedies are repeatedly recommended, but in
no passage of sacred history is man recommended to
swallow calomel, or blue pill, or any other mineral
preparation. The tick were directed to eat herbs to
strengthen them, to purlly them, to heal them, to re
store them. In that day the art of making vegetable
extracts was unknown. The horbal medicines were
mere infusions.

It was reserved for a later age to unite the sanitary
essences of tonic aperient and anti bl ious roots, harks
and plants with an active stimulant, and thus secure
their rapid diffusion through the debilitated or disor

ive mode of concentrating and applying the virtues of
medicinal vegetables was ucluevcd in the production
of Hostctter’s Stomach Bitters. Never before had a
perfectly pure alcoholic stimulant been combined
with the expressed juices of the finest specifics of the
vegetable kingdom. Never yet, though eighteen
years have elapsed since its introduction, Lrs this
great restorative iieon equaled. It is taken at all sea

To fas. Buddie <£ Cos., Louisville, Ky.:
Gihtlsmbs : This is to certify that I have been for
years a sufferer, and tried all the tonics I have heard
of or seen udvertised, with little or no relief from any
of them. I beard Hurley’s Bitters highly spoken of,
aud tried a bottle, with little faith in it bet ore I com
menced, and, to my surprise and joy, before I finished
one bottle I felt a great deal better, and iirmlv believe
that one or two occasions it was the means of saving
and prolonging my life. I conscientiously recommend
them to all sufferers as the best Bitters known, and
advise them always to ask for Dr. T. A. Hu-ley's, and
have no other. You can use this as you think proper,
if it will benefit others.

To Dr. Thos. A. Hurley:
Bin : I deem it an act of justice to you to state that
in the month ol February last I had a severe attack
of iofiammatory rheumatism, which completely pros
trated me. At the same time my lungs were much
afflicted. I was so reduced that it was with the great
est difficulty that I could walk. I procured some of
your Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, and com
menced tutting it. I found that I began to improve—
my congh became less severe —the soreness of my
lungs and breast gradually subsided—my rheumatic
pains lees acu'e. I attribute this mainly to yoor Sar
saparilla. I have now been taking it for over two
months; have taken in all five bottles. Its effects
have been most satifaciory to me, and I advise others
similarly afflicted to give you a trial.

HURLEY’S
Popular Worm Candy.
As this is really a specific for Worms, and the best
and most palatable form to give to children, it is not
surprising that it is fast taking the place of all other
preparations for Worms—it being perfectly tasteless,
'Hid any child will take it.
Messrs. James Ruddle <t Cos.:
Gbktlsmrn : It gives me great pleasure to say,
after using all the other worm remedies known to me,
with hut partial success to my children, 1 was advised
to try Dr. T. A. Hurley’s, and since using it my chil
dren have become well and healthy. The children
would eat it all the time, it is so pleasant, if we would
let them. I believe it is one of the best and safest
remedies known, and as such, recommend it to one
and all. JAB. W. TRAVIS.

you wished to know what per ceut. I was ben

PACIFIC GUANO, bought of you last Spring,
and 1 could not tell correctly nutil I got

The SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO more than
doubled the yield of Cotton on land unmannred
before.
I planted ten acres last year without manure,
and made three (3) bales of Cotton ; planted
the same ten (10) acres this year, manured with
the one ton of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO,
and made seven (7) bales, averaging over 400 lbs.
I have been a Cotton Planter for thirty years,
and all the lime—except this year—making
“ Bumble-bee Cotton"—the bumble bees stand on
their hind feet, on the ground, and suck from the

acre without Manure, and wish yon to send me

Read Analysis of Prof. JOHNSON, of Tale College,.
PrOF. SAMUEL W. JOHNSON, of Yale College, in his “Report on Commercial Fertilizers,” to the “ Connecticut Board of
Agriculture,” makes the following tabulated statement of fertilizers analysed by him, with the explanation of Gold valuation, as
foUows:
“ The valuation is not intended to fix, in all cases, the proper selling price of a fertilizer. It may, however, always serve for
comparing together the money value cif two or more manures, and so nearly represents commercial worth that the farmer will not
often err in refusing to lay out his money for any article whose cost much exceeds the calculated value.
“ The valuation is properly based upon the cost of the active and valuable ingredients of commercial manures, as obtained from
the cheapest standard sources. Without going into details of the calculations, I will state that the prices which I employed in ray
Report to the Connecticut State Agricultural Society in the years 1857, 1858 and 1859, when referred to the gold standard , are not far
from those which result from computing the present market cost of the commercially valuable elements of standard manures.”
The Secretary of the Board, T. S. Gold, Esq., remarks on Prof. Johnson’s Report: “ These samples analyzed by Prof. John
son, were received by him without their names, or any mark except a number. Most of them were taken, under my inspection,
frbm the bags or barrels in the storehouses of the dealers, and were just the article they had on sale. These packages were de
livered personally, or forwarded by Express, so that he could know nothing of their origin or pretensions.”
The annexed table shows the different manures analyzed by Prof. Johnson, of Yale College, giving the names of the manures,
of what composed, and their Gold valuation; also the market price at the time the report was made.

a Fertilizer by being ground to powder, and reduced by Sulphuric Acid to such a condition as
to make its insolnble phosphate soluble iu water, and thus made capable of being taken up by
growing plants. The insoluble phosphate found in any Commercial Fertilizer is of no more
value to the plant than the original phosphate rock. The greater the proportion of this soluble
phosphate which any fertilizer contains, the less the quantity required per a:re, and consequent
