J. W. BURKE, Assistant Editor.
MACON, GEORGIA, AUGUST 1. 1870.
SICK.
Owing to physical indisposition, the Assis
tant Editor has been unable to give any ma
terial attention to his department in the last
two or three issues of the Advocate. He is
at the present time confined to his bed with
severe nervous prostration, but we feel as
sured that the needed rest which he is com
pelled to take, will work so effectual a resto
ration of his over-taxed energies that he will
be soon at his post of duty again.
RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS.
Brethren read the little slip on your paper,
and see when your time is out, and always
renew a few weeks before the time is out,
so as to be sure and lose no papers. What
ever you do don’t let your Advocate stop.
It will increase your trouble, and
much happiness in the family to and out
the Advocate.
ATTENTION.
The Advocate must have more subscri
bers. It is intrinsically worth all that is
asked for it, and ought not require any in
centive to take it, other than the obligation
that every Methodist in the land ought to
feel it his duty to have a good religious pa
per in his family. But. as, in these days,
premiums, consisting of chromos, etc., are
offered, we feel like making to our subscri
bers, new and old, the following liberal of
fer :
Smith’s Large Bible Dictionary and the
Life and Epistles of St. Paul.
By a special arrangement with the publishers,
we are enabled to make tue following advan
tageous odors to all our subscribers:
For $4.50, and 50 cents extra to pay for pos
tage, we will forward to any address, the Smith
era Christian Advocate for one year, and a copy
of Smith’s Large Bible Dictionary, orConybeare
an 1 Howson’s Life and Epistles of S'. Paul,
each being a large octavo volume of more tliau
1,000 pages, handsomely and profusely illustra
ted with maps and engravings.
For $7.00 we will furnish tue Advocate for one
year, and both the above valuable works, pos
tage free.
To Ministers and Theological Students, we
will furnish the Advocate one year, and either of
these works for $4 50, free of postage ; or both
works and the Advocate free of postage for
$0.50.
The retail price of either of these hooks alone
la *4.50; so that by the otter above made our
subscribers can secure b ’.h the Advocate and
either book at the price of the hook alone; and
bv taking both books at $7 00, they can do bet
ter still, inasmuch as the retail price of both
books with postage amounts to SIO.OO, and the
Advocate $2.50 more, making a total of $12.50
the value of which as above they can secure for
$7.00.
Every minister, every Sunday-school super
intendent and teacher, every student of the
Bible, and every Christian family, ought to have
a copy of the Bible Dictionary; and the Life and
Epistles of St Paul should be in the library of
every clergyman and intelligent laymau in the
country.
We shall be happy to furnish our friends with
both these works, as above announced, and we
trust that many will secure them on the liberal
terms which we offe.r.
To all our present subscribers who have paid
for tiie paper one year or more in advance, we
will send either of the above books for $2.50.
This puts all on an equality.
Esionv College. — By reference to the
new advertisement, it will be seen that l’rof.
lioggett, the popular and efficient instructor
in Greek has resigned, and that Prof. Scomp
has been called to supply the vacancy. He
comes with the most flattering testimonials,
not only as an instructor in Greek, but also
in Hebrew, which is now to become a branch
of instruction in the College. The introduc
tion of Vocal Music into the curriculum is a
new departure which will commend itself to
the public; and of till men, our old friend
Prof. Mclntosh is the man for the place. We
congratulate the College upon the brightened
prospects which open up before it, and call
upon all our Georgia Methodists who have
sons to be educated, to give them the great
advantages which Emory offers.

GENERAL NEWS.
St. Paul. July 27. —Dispa f che8 from Bis
marck confirm the killing of Sitting Bull,
Crazy llorae, and Blackmoon, in the Custer
fight. Nearly all the Bucks are absent from
Standing Rock camp and have undoubtedly
joined the hostile Indians.
Washington, July 22. —The President s
signed a bill authorizing the Secretary
War to purchase a parcel of land in Key
West.
In the Senate, the bill appropriating one

General Sherman, in a letter to Tappan,
one of the Indian Peace Commissioners of
1808, calls attention to his frequent exertions
in behalf of the Indians by their settlement
on reservations notably in possession of the
Navajoes in Arizona, and Cheynnes, Kiowas,
Arrapahoes and Comanches on the Canadian
and Cammaron rivers, in Indian territory.
The General states that he has never favor
ed the wanton destruction of human life in
any instance, nor has that been the wish of
any officer or soldier in the army. At the
same time, he believes in compelling these
Indians to remain upon the reservations set
apart for them. He states that at no time
were the' Indians kept in more wholesome
subjection or in better protection than during
the brief period of partial administration by
the army.

er of Indian Affairs on Saturday telpgraphed
the agents at Red Cloud and Spotted Tail to
turn over their charges to the military offi
cers in camps Robinson and Sheridan, res
pectively. This was done by the Commis
sioner for the reason that he thought it best
under the present condit ion of affairs in the
Indian country to have perfect harmony be
tween the military and civil officers near the
agencies, and thus prevent any possible con-
between the officers at those points
a id the agents.
Shreveport, July 24. —The river has fall

should reach here to-morrow. No material

Eureka, Nevada, reports that the heavy
rains on the surrounding mountains have
flooded that town, causing great consterna
tion among the inhabitants and considerable

The Eastern bound express train was delay

New York, July 27. —Commodore Van
derbilt passed an exceedingly restless night.
It was only too apparent this morning that
his condition was worse than at any time
during his protracted illness. About two
o’clock his physician, Dr. Elliot, was sum
moned and he immediately responded to the
call taking with him two consulting physi
cians. The patient was found to be in heavy
stupor utterly unable to understand airy
questions put to him. The symptoms are
deemed so unfavorable that the death of the
rail road king may be looked for at any mo
ment.
The Hateful Grasshopper.—The follow
ing circular is worthy of attention :
State of Ga., Department of Agriculture,
Circular No. 28. Atlanta, July 25, 1870.
The Grasshoppers which have appeared in
many sections of the State are, without doubt,
the Hateful Grasshopper of the West that
dreaded pest that has, during the last few
years, destroyed entire growing crops, re
ducing the people to the point of famine.
They are now in the first and comparatively
helpless s age of their existence.
They will grow rapidly and in the course
of a few weeks wili be able to fly. They will
then deposit eggs in th • earth by millions
Next year the eggs will be hatched and there
will be millions where there are now only
dozens.
You are earnestly advised to destroy them
now , before they can tly, and before their
eggs are deposited.
They can be driven into piles of dry straw
and burned.
Thousands may he destroyed by active men
and boys with brush.
Nets may be made similar to partridge
nets, of some cheap material, with widely
extended wings. The insects can be driven
like birds into these nets or snares and des
troyed.
By every means in your power, and that
can be devised by your ingenuity, utterly
exterminate them and save our Stale from a
plague, such as we have never experienced.
I respectfully suggest that you lay all other
business aside, unite together and make com
mon cause and combined attack against the
enemy.
By concert of action, and immediate, per
sistent efforts, the evil may be averted.
You are respectfully invited to send to
this Department, all valuable facts as learn
ed from your observation and experience in
relation to the grasshoppers, the extent of
damage, what means of destruction fonnd to
be most effective, etc. Very respectfully,
Thomas P. Janes,
Commissioner of Agriculture.

Belgrade, July 22, —The Turks are as
suming the offensive everywhere. Attempt
ing, with ten battalions, to drive Gen. Olim
pic across the Drina they were repulsed wuh
heavy loss. The ground was covered with
Turkish dead. There was heavy lighting at
Gramada, east of Alexiuatz. After ten hours’
fighting the T urks were rei "f need, aud push
ing the fight, wtrf rep d-e and.
London, July 22. —The Standard's. Bel
grade special says the repulse of the attack
on Gramada is the most important strategic
advantage the Servians have yet gained.
Gramada commands the road from Nisch
to Saitschar, and bars access to the heart of
Servia.
Havana, July 22. —The Centennial Fourth
of July was celebrated in the capital by
Americans from all parts of the Republic
and many naturalized citizens under the aus
pices of Mr. Foster, United States M nister.
Much enthusiasm prevailed.
London, July 24. —The Mark Lane Ex
press says : “ The prospects of a good wheat
crop now seem certain of fulfillment. Hay
has been gathered in excellent condition,
though it is not quite as plentiful as it would
have been with a more favorable spring.
The root crops are now sufferirg for rain.
The French and German wheat crops are
satisfactory, both in quantity and quality.
The local trade exhibits continued depres
sion. Wheat has declined one shilling per
quarter and will probably go lower. Float
ing cargoes have shared the general depres
sion and declined one shilling to one shilling
aud sixpence, but the number offering has
been steadily reduced. The current low rates
must cheek shipments.”
Osman Pacha’s camp is twenty-five miles
from Widden. The Servians remain on the
Servian side of Timok river and cannon shots
are occasionally exchanged. It is slated that
nowhere are the Servians more than oneday's
march outside of their frontier. They have
nowhere improved one step on th-'ir posi
tions at the beginning of the month. The
Servian prospects are gloomy. Their victo
ries are merely in repulse of attacks ; in otlu-r
words, evidences of defeat, not a foot of
ground being gained.
Constantinople, July 25.—Official dis
patches say that a Turkish detachment from
Satchanitza crossed the Servian frontier and
defeated the Servians, killing three thousand
men, and also burned three villages. Thir
teen Turkish battalions attacked and routed
the Montenegrins near Nevesinji.
Belgrade July 25.— Yesterday the Ser
vian army under General Zach encountered
the Turks on the whole line of Yaror. The
artillery fire lasted seven hours, folllowed by
an infantry engagement, in which the Ser
vians were completely successful. Several
of the Turkish guns were dismounted. Two
other minor Servian successes are reported.
Mostar, July 2G. —Mouhktar Pacha an
nounces that on the 24th ins'ant he pursued
the Montenegrins, whom he defeated at Nev
esinji. Oa the approach of the Turks, the
Montenegrins retreated in the dir ction of
Banjani, abandoning a large quantity of pro
visions and many cattle.
Belgrade, July 27. —The following is offi
cial : The Turks attempted to cross the river
Timok, which forms the eastern boundary of
Servia, at Wrasogniaz. on Wednesday, but
were repulsed with heavy loss. On the 4th
Gen. Antioch completely defeated Purisch
Pacha near Dugapoljana.

sure.
The ruling passion of the human family; all else
in thin hurly-burly age is lost sight of. In grasp
ing ater riches, the mind is wholly absorbed, the
brain taxed, the nervous system strained to its ut
most tension. In the pursuit if pleasure, all hy
gienic rules are disregarded; the body distorted
by fashion’s despotic sway, and the hours design
ed ior repose are devoted to •xh lU-ding revelry ;
the stomach the source from which the majority
of diseases emanate, >8 ru'hlfi.-siv in posed upon;
pure water, the natural mink tor nil created be
ings is ignored and liquid fire, in one ,-hape or an
other, is substituted, until ere wo are aware of it,
disease has fixed its iron grasp upon us. Then we
perceive our danger, and look for the “elixir of
life.”
To the victim of these follies we cordially com
mend Dr. Tutt’s Liver Pills. They will stimu
late your liver, strengthen your nerves, restore
your appetite, and impart vigor to your system.
A want has been felt and expressed by physi

want is now supplied in Canton's Purgative Pills.

BUFFALO LITHIA WATERS
IN
Protracted Intermittent and Keniittent
Fever.
Extract from Letter of Dr 0. F. Manson. Profes
sor of General Pathology and Physiology
in the Medical College. Richmond,
Va , of July sth, 1873.
“These waters have been found especially cura
tive in cases of chronic intermittent fever, many in
tractable cases huvi g been thereby restored to per
fect health in a brief space of time.*'
Extract from pamphlet of Dr. S. H Harris, on
these waters, pnbli hed in 1850
PROTRACTED INTERMITTENT & REMITTENT FEVERS.
“In the chronic forms of these troublesome en
demics, the Buffalo water acts most happily, and.
if persevered in, often effe ts a permanent cure.
These enlargements of the liver and spleen, con
comitants of these affections, are simultaneously
relieved with the chilis and fever.”
Case of E. K Harris. Esq . of the Virginia Bar,
now Elector from toe State upon the Dem
ocratic Presidential Ticket; Extract
from Letter, dated Buffalo Springs,
August 29th, iS7 5.
“Some years ago, my system was completely
worn d-*wn and prostrated by a proctracted case
of chi Is and fever. Af.er using all the remedies
indicated in such cases in vain. 1 visited the most
noted watering places of t * mountains of Virgin
ia. without deriving any benefit; almost in des
pair ot obtaining relief from any source. I left the
mountains and came to these Springs, where in a
few weeks, L was entirely restored to health.”
Evidences of the great powers of these waters
might be multiidied to almost any extent, both
from prolessional and unprofessional sources.

A. Harris, is, in my judgment, one of the best in
stitutions, for young ladies, in the South. I have
occasion to know and appreciate its value by the
advantages enjoyed by one ot my daughters there.
Its course of study is ample; its Faculty accom
i lished, and its instruction both solid and elegant.
Its personal accommodations are all that can be
desired for health and comfort, or taste.
