The Ladies and Gentlemen of Augusta, and Us vicinity, are respectfully informed,

Dr. Brewster,
SURGEON DENTIST.
WHOSE practice is so highly approved, has, by the advice of his friends in Sa
vannuh and this city, consented to make the two cities a permanent resi

a: least twice every year. He will continue in this city until the first of June, then
> 'sit Milledgevillc, Washington, Athens, and other places in the interior of the State,
after which he will return and pass a par of the next winter in this place. As
he warrants all his operations on the Teeth to be durable and beneficial, he will then
examine those Teeth on which he operates during the present season. If proper
instruments, used with tenderness, care, and skill, in operations ‘on the Teeth—or
beauty and durability in setting Natural or Artificial Teeth, are any considerations

Office—where he ofl'ets his services in
the above business, and hopes, by strict
personal attention, to obtain the patron
age or his friends and the public.
The great facilities afforded by brokers

it remarkable that the merchants of Au

ed the inconvenience of having none, and
Cotton Btoker. In almost
every other Ctotion mart the business is
principally doite by brokers; and hence
the ease, certainty and dispatch with
which it is executed. The same system
is perfectly practicable here. The mer
chant, by applying at the office of the iub
sc iber, may hereafter save himself the
trouble of sampling bis cotton and looking
up a purchaser;—the planter need be no
longer involved in doubt and difficulty to
ascertain the true state of the market,
nor subject himself to the caprice of the
wary speculator—and the purchaser will
at all times know where to resort for cot
ton the market price.

There are few so ignorant as not to
know, that a work like this, if even tole.
rahly executed, must possess instrinsic
value. Ths compilation of this book is
allowed by competent judges, to be per
formed in a very masterly manner; and
the well known character of the gentle
man whose name it bears, forbids the idea
of any deficiency of industiy or talent,
in executing the important service confid
ed to him by the Legislature.
It is believed that»very msn who can
conveniently buy this work ought to pos
seas it, because it behoves every citizen
to have some knowledge of the laws of
his country. The opinion expressed by
Judge niackstoae is certainly correct,
that “As everyone is interested in th<j
“ preservation of the J.aws, it is incuin.
“ bent upon every man to be acquainted
“ with those at least, with which he is im
