Governor BroWn and tlse Co
lumtous Times.
We arc gratified to see that our cotem
porary. the Columbus Times, boldly advo
cates the re-clcction of Governor Brown.
In a recent article, the Editors of that ster
ling democratic sheet thus refer to the Gov
ernor- :
“We mean simply to echo the sentiments
of the people in'wishing the shafts of malice
thrown at him to be broken arid that he
will remain another term in the office which
he*now fills with so much'Jcredit to his par.ty
and honor so the State.”
“■TI.C Battle <sf Life ”
This is the subject of an “Address deliv
ered before the Thalian and Phi-Delta So
cieties of Oglethorpe - University,” by
the Hon. Hiram learner, at its late An
nual Commencement, and for which we are
indebted to its distinguished author. Un
like most addresses on similar occasions,
this one of Judge Warner is eminently prac
tical, and if placed in the hands of every
young man in the State, would be produc
tive of more good than any which we have
peiused for years. The “battle of life ’is
what our youth must all engage in, and to
be prepared for. they must contemplate it
Fervently and eloquently is this battle pre
sented to the young who are about to en
gage in it. Would that the advice and ad
monitions of-the Judge could prevail on aU
who heard, or will road the address, to pre
pare lor the great struggle as he directs
and to yield not when once engaged in it,
to any temptations of the world.
The Schooner Susan.
Mobile, Jan. I.—A sk>op. lias just
reached this port from Rnatan, and re
ports that the filibuster schooner Susan;-
which recently left Mobile, had landed •
all her passengers at a Honduras port,
and'tJtsy forthwith prepared to cross the
country to the department of Leon, in
Nicaragua. It appears that the arms
which some months ago were abstracted
from the arsenal at Leon, are now in
the hands of the Democrats about Chi
nandego and Subtiaba, who arc waiting
for the advent of the Americans, in order
to declare war against Martinez. Chaves,
the relative of U n. Valle, was at Oc
toral, on the confines of Nicaragua.
. All Honduras was ready with a large
body of Democrats, to unite with the
Americans. ,

by Col. Anderson, in order to complete

n common observation tliat. tlicrc
-nre more sufferers from debility among Americans,
than can be found among any other civilized na
tion. The reason is obvi us. We take too little ex
ercise, and forget the wants of the body in the ab
sorbing pursuits of business. In all such cases, or
dinary medicines can do little good. What is re
quired is justsuch a tonic and invigorator as Dr. J.
Hostetter lias given to the world, in his’CELE
BRATED • P.i TTERS.” The weak and nervous den
izen of th -oiinting-hoHse, the exhausted toilerup
on the shop-board, and the prostrated student of
the midnight lamp, have found a wonderful-regen
erator in the “Bitters,” and prefer it to more pre
tentious,-hut less efficacious medicines. But it
should not he forgotten that the agent which is so
magical in its influence upon a frame which is mere
ly debilitated, is equally powerful in assisting na
ture to expel the mo.-t terrible forms of disease.—

Dinkins, in the 5:Sd year of his age. Mr. Dinkins
was a native of Richland District, S. C., and has
been a citizen of this county about 20 years. He
has long been one of our most successful planters.
Possessed of an agreeable disposition, a warm and
feeling lieart.be was noted for his kindness to his
friends, and agreeablei.essjo all with whom he was
associated. In point of honesty and fidelity, not
a blemish was on his character. All who knew
him loved him. A short time previous to his death,
he joined the Methodist Church, professing a lively
hope of his future happiness beyond the grave.
Long o'er the graves of those we love, we weep.
Yet death is but to fall asleep—
The immortal part will still survive the storm,
And mount t > glory, changed only in form.

STOP THE RASCAL!
8500 Howard,
RANAWAY from the neighborhood of Haral
son. Coweta county,on Wednesday night the
29th of December, a man by. the name of WIL
LIAM HOLLAND, taking with him the wife of
his neighbor, Wm. J. Ellis, and her infant child,
about four weeks old, and leaving his own wife and
children in perfectly destitute circumstances. This
man Holland lias been guilty of several acts of a
fraudulent and Infamous character, such as running
off a negro man, which he had previously sold to
Mr. A. B. MatheWs, of Griffin, and for which he re
ceived pay ; swapping off a mule, the property of
Mr. J. : M. Jones, of Coweta county—besides run
ning off a number of negroes, for which he has ne
ver paid ; passing off, as is supposed, forged notes,
and pursuing a system of wholesale swindling up
on all who have had any transactions with him.--
Hollund. is supposed to lie in possession of a large
amount of money, as he bps sold some twenty ne
groes, besides horses and other property, within a
few nionths.past, most of which he is still largely
indebted for. To the Masonic Fraternity .it is of
the utmost importance that this scoundrel Holland
should be checked in his course of crime, as he is
himself a member of that honorable Fraternity,
and lias been guilty of the basest perjury and vio
lation of his Masonic obligations.. Mrs. Ellis, whom
he has enticed away ‘from her home and husband,
is the wife of a Mason, and most of the frauds per
petrated by Holland are against Masons, whom he
knew to be such, and from whom he had received
many actsof friendship.
Holland managed adroitly to get Mr. Ellis away
from home, by sending him to Macon to get some
negroes, which he asserted he had bought there,
and to complete the payment for which, he gave
Ellis a note for $l,lOO, without any date, purport
ing to be made by Abraham Benton, with Jasper
Howell as, security, but which seems to be a for
gery, both the -principal and his security’s name
being in the same hand writing, which Mr. Ellis
says is the writing of his own wife. On arriving
at Macon, Ellis found no negroes that hadbeen pur
chased 15y Holland.
Independent of the loss which the parties offer
ing the above reward (and which they are willing
to increase if necessary) have sustained at the
hands of this scoundrel Holland, the public are in
terested in arresting and bringing to the bar of jus
tice, a villian of so deep a die, and it is hoped tnat
a vigilant watch will be kept for him in every part
of the country.
Pesckiition.— Holland is a large man, weighing
about 200 or 210 pounds, about, six feet I igh, very
dark complexion, with a bald head, his natural
hair, what little there is ot it. kinky as a negroes
which he has covered with a wig of black,, straight
hair ; large black eyes, high forehead, and gener
ally intelligent countenance, and is in the neigli
borhood.of forty-live years old.
Mrs. Ellis, who accompanied Holland, isa rath
er good looking woman, is 27 or 2S years old,
weighs about 140 pounds, above the medium height,
slim, fair complexion, light grey eye. auburn hair,
intel igent and agreeable in conversation. The
child, as before stated, is about four weeks old. It
has been supposed that, in order the better to avoid
detection, the criminal pair will destroy the child,
if they-have not already dote so. The absence of
the child should not, therefore, deter persons from
arresting an otherwise suspicious couple answering
to the above description.
The above reward of SSOO wil 1 be paid for the
arrest of Holland, and his safe delivery atNewnau,
Coweta county, Ga., or if arrested in time to se
cure possession of the .money which he Is believed
to have with him, SI,OOO will be paid.

HOSTETTER’S
STOMACH BITTERS,
For the cure of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Nausea,
Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, or any Bilious
Complaints, arising from a morbid inaction
of the Stomach or Bowels, producing Cramps,
Dysentery, Colic, Cholera Morbus, dxs.
In view of the fact that every member of
the human family is more or less subjected to
some of the above complaints, besides in
numerable other conditions in life, which,
by the assistance of a little knowledge or
exercise of common sense, they may be able
so to regulate their habits of diet, and with
the assistance of a good tonic, secure per
manent health. In order to accomplish this
desired object, the true course to pursue is,
certainly, that which will produce a natural
6tate of things at the least hazard of vital
strength and life ; for this end Dr. Hostetter
has introduced to this country a prepara
tion called HOSTETTER’S STOMACH
BITTERS, which at this day is not anew
medicine, but one that has been tried for
years, giving satisfaction, to all who have
used it. The Bitters operate powerfully upon
the stomach, bowels and liver, restoring
them to a healthy and vigorous action, and
thus by the simple process of strengthening
nature, enable the system to triumph over
disease. Diarrhoea, dysentery or flux, so
generally contracted by new settlers, and
caused principally by the change of water
and diet, will be speedily regulated by a
brief use of this preparation. Dyspepsia,
a disease which is probably more .prevalent
when taken in all its various forms, than
any other; the cause of which may always
be attributed to derangements of the diges
tive organs, can be cured without fail by
using HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BIT*
TERS as per directions on the bottle. For
this disease every physician will recom
mend Bitters of some kind, then why not
use an article known to be infallible ?
Every country have their Bitters as a pre
ventive of disease, and strengthening of
the system in general, and among them all
there is not to be found a more healthy
people than the Germans, from whom this
preparation emanated, based upon scientific
experiments which has attended to advance
the destiny of this great preparation in the
medical scale of science.
FEVER AND AGUE.
This trying and provoking disease, which fixes 1U
relentless grasp on the body of man, reducing him to
a mere shadow in a short space of time, and rendering
him physically and mentally useless, can be defeated
and driven from the body by the use of HOSTETTER’S
RENOWNED BITTERS. Further, any of the above
stated diseases can not be contracted when exposed to
any ordinary conditions producing them, if the Bitter*
are used as per directions. And as it neither preate*
nausea nor offends the palate, and rendering unneces
sary any change of diet or interruption to usual pur
suits, but promotes sound sleep and healthy digestion,
the complaint is thus removed as speedily as is con
sistent with the production of a thorough and perma
nent cure.
For Persons in advanced years
Who are suffering from an enfeebled constitution and
infirm body, these Bitters are invaluable as a restora
tive of strength and vigor, and needs only to be tried
to be appreciated. And to a mother while nursing,
these Bitters are indispensable, especially where the
mother’s nourishment is inadequate to the demand*
of the child, consequently her strength must yield,
and here it is where a good tonic, such as nostetter’s
Stomach Bitters is needed to impart temporary strength
and vigor to the system. Ladies should by all means
try this remedy for. all cases of debility, and before so
doing, ask your physician, who, if he is acquainted
with the virtues of the Bitters, will recommend their
use in all cases of weakness.
CAUTION. —We caution the public against
using any of the many imitations or coun
terfeits, but ask for Hostetter’s Celebrated
Stomach Bitters, and see that each bottle
has the words “ Dr. J. Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters” blown on the side of the bottle, and
stamped on the metallic cap covering the
cork, and observe that our autograph signa
ture is on the label.

ARE YOU SICK 1
Then yon can’t be cured too soon. Don’t delay
until your complaint is incurable, and then mourn
when it is too late. Four fifths of all the diseases
which people the church yards, might be cured by
Ayer’s Cathartic Pills, if taken in season. Don’t
go dragging through the Spring, faint sleepy and
listless, because your blood is loaded with bile.—
Don’t wear the headach, Heartburn and their kin
dred disorders because your stomach is foul. Don’t
parade yourself around tlie world, covered with
Pimples, Blotches, Ulcers, Sores, and all or a o3’ of
the’unclean diseases of the skin, because 3‘onr sys
tem wants oleaifsiug. Don’t show yourself about,
lean, haggard, all caved in, because 3-0111- Stomecli
and bowels need strengthening into licalty action.
A3'er’s Pills set these things right as surely as water
quenches fire. Tbe3’ purify tlie body and “blood,and
restore their functions into healthy activity which
you can feel as quick as they are taken. They are
the one great medical wonder of the age, recog
nized by all who know their virtues, and many

a patent medicine; yet, we feel it a duty, when we
are convinced an article is very meritorious, to in
form the public that they,too, may be benelitted
by its use, and to prevent them .from using other
articles that have no merit in them.
Now we wish particularly to recommend to our
readers. Dr. Sanford’s Liver Invigorator, as an ar
ticle that has given benefit and performed cures, in
our circle of acquaintance,that were lit le less than
astonishing. It is particularly recommended for all
diseases of the Liver, as it is a Liver Invigorator.—
Especially among our own children, have we noted
its beneficial effects, where the little sufferers, from
bowel complaint .worms and other diseases, incident
to children, have been made quiet and perfectly
cured, by tlie use of this article. It has testimo
nials that none can doubt, for the cure of Jaundice,
Dyspepsia, and such troubles as alwaysfollow a
deranged Liver. A few such cases have come un
der our observation, where itseemed almost to work
miracles. Otiradvice to families, is iftt to be without

A LIVER REMEDY.
The Liver, according to Ph3’siologists, occupies
in our human economy a place second only to the
heart, and consequently is < ne of the greatest dis
