day evening. The annual concert
was a grand fitting finale of the en-
tire exercises. The programme was
admirably arranged of the finest and
choicest pieces of music, and we were
gratifed at The large, appreciative
attendance.
Miss Porter rendered and partici-
pated in several pieces. 1t was
very evident that this lady is ac-
com lished in music, with refined
taste and cultivated ear. She pos
sesses a powerful soprano voice,
sweet, clear and under perfect con-
troll.
Miss Ada Rogers rendered her
several parts in most pleasing and
gratifying manner She has a pure
ly sweet and strong alto voice, con-
trolling every intonation to a nicely.
Miss Minnie Rogers, so tender, SO
young, promises to be noteworthy
artist in vocal and instrumental
music. She rendered her part of
Come Birdie. Come" in a most
creditable manner
Mis- Zoe Rogers sustained her rep
utation as a brilliant piano performer
of the most cultivated and exquisite
taste, as well as possesses q rich
voice.
Misses Lizzie Lanier and Rhoda
ShockIey, both displayed excellent
musical talent in the performance Of
several beautiful and fine pieces, re-
ceiying just appreciation from the
audience.
Prof. Freyer's violin music, under
his inimitable touch, was we'll re-
ceived and encored, and executed in
the most happy manner.
Messrs. Mansfield and Shockley,
performed prominent parts in the
concert with equal success. The
former possesses a powerful tenor
voice, pure and clear, and the latter
a strong basso voice, well cultivated.
Upon the whole it was rare mus
zeal treat and gave entire satisfac-
ton. And so ended the Commences
ment exercises of the Marietta Fe-
male College.

''To BE WEAK IS MISERABLE"
Never was truer sentence written than this
supposed to be wrung from the Arch-fend III
his impotence and agony. Every victim ofner-
vous debility or Of that depressing languor
which is one of the Accomplishments of dyspep-
sia and billiousness can testify to the misery OF
mind and body which they involve. The mo
tive power of the system is partially Paralyzed I;
the mind is haunted by anxiety and fear; ana
the sufferer is as incapable of applying himself
theoretically to any kind of business as II he
were under the benumbing influence Of catelep-
sy. This terrible mental and physical condition
need not, however, be endured for forty-elght
hours by any human being. PLANTATION

Glorious and delightful as the Summer wealth.
er is its tropical heat is a severe trial to the
vital powers, Even the strongest are sometimes
Frustrated by its effects. The common phrase
applied to this condition of the body is general
debility arises from, aud includes a variety oi
ailments. The liver is more or less affected
the bowels are either constipated or too much
relaxed, the stomach but half performs the work
of digestion the appetite is poor, and the spirits
depressed. This is what is called general de-
biitv. Ii is a general disarrangement OF all the
physical functions, and requires as a remedy a
medicine that will regulate them all. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is specially adapted to this pur-
pose. Its general operation is not confined to
single organ. If the liver is affected it restores
its tone. fthe stomach is torpid, it regenerates
it, If the nerves are tremulousi and weak. it
braces and reinforces them. Ifthe mind, which
ever sympathizes with the body, is gloomy and
Respondent, it relieves the difficulty, and soon
brings the whole mechanism of the body into
harmony with the laws of health
There is no civilized nation in the Western
Hemisphere in which the utility of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters as tonic, corrective, and anti
bilious medicine is not known and appreciated
Throughout the Tropics It's considered both by
the people and the profession, the standard spe-
ciic While it is a medicine for all seasons and
all climates, it is especially suited to the com
plants generated blythe weather, beng the pur-
est and best vegetable stmulant in the world.
Beware of the Bitters made OF acrd and dan
gerous materials, which INSCRIPTIONS parties
are endeavOring to toist upon the people. Their
name is legion, and the public has no guarantee
that they are not poisonous. Adhere to the
tried remedy Hostetters Bitters sold only in
glass, and never in kegs or barrels.

Grand Presidential Struggle
ToE. 1879.
Telegraph & Messenger.

The campaign for 1872 will be a gigantic and
convusive struggle. Nothing like it has been
seen since 1910, and in the momentous and
fundamental characters of the issues involved,
we trust nothing like it need occur again IN the
history of the United States. We hope it will
result in the re-estabshment Of the great foun-
dation principles of civil and personal freedom
and its time honored munimens-of the local
independence of the States-Ot the freedom OF
the ballot of the impartalty of public justice
-ofthe integrity Of Executive administration
of the inviolabity of the habeas corpus-of the
triumph of law aud the Consttution-and ia the
complete victory of peace, cancellation, national
harmony and tranquility ., er the demon of dis
cord, unsurpation, tyranny, hatred, and ihe
great moral and sectional war proclaimed by
Grant, Morton and Butler.
In Georgia, however it may be elsewhere the
result of this contest is not at all problematica;
but an intense and overwhelming interest VIII

On Thursday the 25th, We, in
company with a number Of our flour
ishing Lodge |. 0. 0. T., visited our
thriving little sister city, Acworth,
for the purpose ofinstitnting a Lodge
of the order in that place We were
met at the Depot by our genial, gif-
ted and witbaI, practical worker, c.
C. KIBBEE, Grand Master Of this
Jurisdiction. 1t was our happy lot
to hear and experience the workings
OF the order, under his practical
hand. At the close Of the work, on
motion of Bro Phillips, Of Cherokee,
Lodge, the Grand Master delivered
a lecture, that in its pathos, learn
ing and wisdom, could not be eX-
celled. Long live our 1c0ytjty head
and may his pathway through life
be as happy and triumphant as the
principles he advocates and the truths
iIlustr., by his york. After the
ceremony of institution was over,
that king OF good-fellows and par
excellence, the Joae;tacc of Georgia,
Y I. T.rrCuFrELD. took charge of
and ministered to the temporal
wants of the Brethren. Just here,
let me tell the travelling public that
in no place in Georgia, and 1t IS
famed for good living, will the weary
traveller find at one, and at the same
time, nicer hotel Or more COM
Portable home, than that of our friend
LITCH.
Acworth in its situation geographi-
cally is peculiarly adapted to trade.
Here is the natural outlet of the
Hightower valley on the East and the
fertile corn and cotton fields Of the
West hence, its rapid growth and
the prosperity of its business mem
and more, here the people are alive
to the times, morally and intellectu-
ally, as is evidenced by its churches
anG schools. 1t would, we are sure,
do soma of the old Fogies Of our

is the only College in the South that

At this season of the year the blood is apt to
become impure, the appetite poor, the skin sal
low, the body enfeebled, the system relaxed,
making it susceptible to attacks of chilIs and
fevers rheumatism, eruptons of the skin, and
the development of the effects of the inludicous
use of Calomel. All this trouble may be avoid
ed by the use of few bottles of DR.. TUFTS Sar-

in its effects, but powerful enemy to diseases.
