THE FAT nIeN,s CONVENTION.

We can see some pleasure, if no rea-
son, in the convention of baby show,
but we confess we could never see the
slightest cause, reasonable or other
wise, for fat mems convention, unless
i, be the fact that misery loves COM
pany. For fifty or. hundred mn.
whose several weights range from 200
to 300 pounds, to hold convention
simply because of so much surplus
avoirdupois, is absurd to say the least.
Il becomes doubly so when we reflect
that obesity is disease. What would
we think of as many persons emaciated
by consumption holding convention
to compare their relative weights.
There is but one ground upon which
we would advocate another fat mems
convention, and that is that they will
inset to discuss the merits of Allan's
Anti-Fat, the only known remedy for
obesity. 1t is safe and reliable. Sold
by druggists.

It is q somewhat remarkable fact that
this approaching, explosive, gaseous,

ever memorable in the annals of old

to blow up the Parliament with gun

greater detestation than that of any

elasticity to his graceful movements
on the Avenue and on the stump.
Thouch S i'll probably never heard of

A large proportion OF the American
people are to-day dying from the eff
fects of dyspepsia or disordered liver.
The result of these diseases upon the
masses of intelligent and useful people
is most alarming, making life actually
a burden instead Of pleasant exist
ence of enjoyment and usefulness as il
ought to be. There is no good reason
for this, if you will only throw aside
prejudice and skepticism, take the ad.
vice of druggists and your friends, and
try one bottle of Green's August Flow.

Millions of bottles of this medleine

We have been furnished with the

HOLLY SPRINGS, Sept. 80, 1873.
d.. L. II. SweaiiDgeu and T. d.
Manning, Of Austin, Texas, came
among Us in our soTess need, and in
mediGJc.y set 10 work and successfully
tdmInis tered 10 the wants of our suf-
ferlDg community. The necessities of
the occasion T, quiring a hospital, Dr..
Manning, ia conjunction with DR.. A.
II. Sheldon, of Mobile, Alabama, at
once prepared our court house building
tor that purpose, which was soon e led
10 oveif1wiDg. Their successful treat
ment soon required the establishment
" another bo-pital IN the Masonic
building. Their skill in treating the
disease impaired to the whole commu-
nity such confidence that the general
expression was, III 1 get sick send
me to the hospital" and they had
driven from the minds of both
white and cOlored the usual repugnance
felt towards such establishments. But
the leading spirit OF the institution, DR..
Manning, was stricken down snd gave
up his life for tbs cause. DR.. Swear

his management the high prestige of
the institution has been maintained.

Why DON'T THE PEOPLE Go To
WORK 2-AustIn is most accessible and
most centrally located of the cities of
TeXss. IL is IOftiest. Its supreme
heaIthfulness was never questioned till
few doctors took on "a big scare"
and went mad and frightened innocent
city fathers and established this absurd
quarantine. There is nothing wanting
10 perfect the attractiVeness of the city
save that prosperity which would
spnng from the creation here of the
point of transfer from the Texas
system OF narrow gauge to athat of
broad gauge roads. OF schools we
have enough. At no place in the South
is competition keener than between the
private and public schools, and in no
city. in proportion to wealth and pop
ula,iOn, are there better institutions of
learning or those more literally pat
ronized. Society is excellent, and in
order to make Austin prosper 1t is only
necessary to make its charms wide
~ recognized. He who contributes
most to this result 10 surely the
city's greatest benefactor, and deserves
most popular gratitude and cU-opera-
ton. II was in view of these patent
facts and necessities that the STATES
NAN has so persisteptly urged mer-
chants and property holders of the
capital to Cooperate vigorously
AID actively and earnestly with
tie members of the Capital
8 ate Fir Association. The as
sOCiL in must succeed or fail. If
success crown its tolls Austin, each
year, will be the Mecca CT mechanical,
agricultural and inventive genius (; if
the Institution fail the fair ground
property will be divided and sold
and become the site of wretched
novels and Austin will be famed no
more for It's picturesque beauty, for the
perfect lucidlty of its atmosphere, for
its beautiful farms and lofty hills
redOlent OF the perfume of every flower
that blooms in these low ATTITUDES. The
fair must succeed. The whole county
is interested in promoting this end,
and each letter written from Austin
and each wsnderer from the capital
should tell of the attractions of the
city; of its physical charms; of its soft
winds from the sea; of Its woLderfu,
productions; OF its mstcbless horses
add cattle, and tell that all this and
agricultural products OF every descrip-
ton will be exhibited at the coming
State Fair.

No BAIL. Justice Meals decision
Thursday in the Rosseau case was that
in his opinion the prisoner was not en-
titled to bail, and he was sent to Jail.
This decision was reached after a
thorough and complete investigation
for more than week, In which the ac-
cused had all the berefit that his coun-
sci, Mr.. Dowell, could possibly bring
to HIM. Now that the end has Come.
the STATESMAN feels called upon to say
that prolonged preliminary examina-
tons Of murder cases are improper and
hurtful to the best interests of society.
They do no good and are decid-
eddy expensive, and SO long as
they are countenanced by tsxpay
ers they have no right to COM
plain about high taxes. When a man
is accused of committing murder, he
should have fair examination, but
that examination should also be fair te
the public. The examination of three
NJ four leading witnesses, We think,
should always snf1ioe IN = preliminary
examination OF Cases OF thls kind. and
from one 10 two days time should be
ample.

Mr.. ISAAC FRIEDRICH, 1t should be
remembered, was dominated by the
Democratic convention as one OF the
two candidates in this precinct for the
office OF justice of tho pesce. Mr.
Friedrich Is a lawyer of both ability
and judgment, and for the past fifteen
months he has acted rs assistant prose-
cutting attorney in this county, which
has familisrized him with the duties
of the office to which he sspires. Mr..
Friedrich came to Austin about three
years ago well recommended, and dur
ing his residence here he has conduct
ed himself ia such u manner as TO win
the respect OF our people, and TO Sc
cure the nomination for an important
Office. His announcement will be
found in this paper.
