Citizens of North and South America,t To Louis Offon Goelicke, M. D., Y Germany, [Europe,] belongs the imperishable honir of adding a new and precious doctrine to the scielce of medi cine —a doctrine which, though vehemeitly opposed by many of the faculty, (of which he A a valuable member,) he proves to be as well foun ed in truth as any doctrine of Holy Writ—adoctri ?, upon the verity of which are suspended the iive of millions of our race, and which he boldly challe; ges his op posers to refute, vi/: Consumption is . disease al ways occasioned by a disordered state ; sf Vis Vitae (or Life Principle) of the human body : : (£f often secretly lurking in the system for y jars before there is the least complaint of the Lung{ I ,/jO-—and which may be as certainly, though not iO quickly, cured, as a common cold or a simple hea ‘ >.che. An invaluably precious doctrine this, as it mparts an important lesson to the apparently heal .y of both sexes, teaching them that this insidiou foe may be an unobserved inmate of their “ clay y houses” even while they imagine themselves s cure from its attacks, teaching them that the great, cret in the art of preserving health is to pluck out he disease when in the blade, and not wait till the all grown ear. This illustrious benefactor of man is a o entitled to youi unfeigned gratitude, and the gra tude of a world, for the invention of his matchles.

Though \ s shall refrain from an expression of our opinio i, either of the soundness or unsoundness of Dr. * oelick s new doctrine, we are happy to say that v e deem his Sanative too valuable not to be g nerally , known—for what our eyes behold and ur ears | hear, we must believe. We hereby state, that when Dr. Loi s Often Goelick first came before the German p blic, as the pretended discoverer of a new doctriu and a new medicine, we held him in the high st con tempt, believing and openly pronouncing h nto be a base impostor and the prince of quacks, lut, on hearing so much said about the Sanative, a it I and for it, we were induced, from motives . curi osity merely, to make trial of its reputei virtues upon a number of our most hopeless patiti . s; and ; we now deem it our bounden duty (eve at the expense of self-interest) publicly to ackn >.v ledge its efficacy in curing not only consumpi >n, but other fearful maladies, which we have he etofore believed to be incurable. Our contempt for the discoverer of this medicine was at once sw llowed up in our utter astonishment at these une pected results; and, as amends for our abuse of ; m, wc do frankly confess to the world, that we elieve him a philanthropist, who does honor to the irofcs skn, and to our country, which gave him hi th. ( t The recent adoption of this medicine in ) some of our European hospitals, is R sufficient g aranty that it performs all promises. It needed ot our estimony,for wherever it is used it is its o n best wi ness. HERMAN ETMULLER, i. d. WALTER VAN GAULT, f. D. ADOLPHUS WERNER, v. d. Germany, December 10, 1886.

MATCHLESS SANATIVE. —David SI Row land, the General American Agent for this lighty medicine, (invented by the immortal Goe> ;ke of Germany) has great pleasure in publishing lie fol lowing hignly important letter fiom a resp ctable gentleman in Nfiw-I ork, which he has ic ei\ed, with man v others of a similar character—-al > very interesting intelligence from several of his gents, as will be seen below —which, together w the certificate from three eminent German phy clans, must forever establish the character of the S: dative as being without a parallel in the history o medi cine. | Testimony No.- 1. A letter from H. F. Sherwood, Esq., of New 'York. 4 Q £J. 9 £ New-York, Oct. 9,1 i 37. i Dr. D. S. Rowland, —Sir; About the mb lie of ouly last, I accidentally noticed in a newspa erthe advertisement of the Matchless Sanative, for yhich I perceived you were agent, and which pro essed to be a sovereign remedy for consumption. As my wife was then fast wasting away with his dreadful disease, and as our family phy dcian was daily and anxiously endeavoring to resh e her to health without success, I stepped over :o his health and asued him if he had any object: ,ns to her taking this medicine. He repoed mar •• ewas perfectly willing Mrs. Sherwood should take utor any oteer meaicm sue rnig.it cooosc , ou: het iough , 5 'A I it could do her no good, as her lungs were rapidly consuming, and no human means could save her.” Still, the Sanative, being recommended by three physicians who had used it in their practice, she concluded to give it a trial. 1 sent and pur chased a phia l which she commenced taking three times a day, giving a free indulgence to her appe tite according to the directions. By- pursuing this course, she surfered considerably for the first eight or ten days, but was shortly able to eat and drink freely, without the last inconvenience. Within four weeks from her first using the med icine, her feeble health and wasted form began to put on new- strength, and she has been gainingfrom day to day until the present moment, to the utter astonishment of our family phy-sician and friends.— She is now enjoying a comfortable (though not per feet) state of health, is able to be about house and attend church. Mrs. Sherwood and my-self are both fully- of opinion, and so are all who know her remarkable case, that she owes her live to the Sanative alone: and as there are probably many consumptive per sons in the United States, who have not yet heard of this medicine, measures ought speedily- to be adopted to have it more generally known. A number of persons in our neighborhood, I un derstand, are taking it for other serious complaints, with very great benefit. I think of going to the South, with my family, sometime this fa 11, and in case I do, I will proclaim the virtues of the Sanative in that quarter; for al though some of the physicians here are actively-op posed to it, I do sincerely believe it saved my wife from an opening grave. If you think this letter will serve he public good, you are at liberty to publish it. Respectfully, &c. H. F. SHERWOOD. Testimony No. 2. One person in our village, who was considered by his physician to be in a Consumption, has taken the Sanative, and is now well. Another person, subject to epileptic fits, has been greatly benefitted by- a short course of this medicine. There can be no question but this medicine has performed won derful cures in a host of cases, and that it is worthy of general attention.— Brunswick Advertiser. Testimony No. . THE MATCHLESS SANATIVE.—By an article in our paper to-day, it will be seen that this medi cine has lost none of its virtues by crossing the At lantic—for it appears to be working similar cures in America to those which have astonished Europe. —Boston Morning Post.

THE Trustees of this institution are happy to have it in their power to state, that both the principal Academy in Augusta, and the branch at Summerville, have resumed their exercises, under the management of Teachers who have the full confidence of the Trustees, and who, they are sa tisfied, are fully entitled to that of the public. Mr. Eknenputsch, the Rector of the Academy, already favorably known to the community, has charge of the Classical department and all the branches of education requisite for admission to our best Colleges. His attainments as a scholar and success in imparting useful knowledge, emi nently- qualify him for the discharge of°r.he im portant duties of his station. Mr. Ring, the principal English Teacher, re cently engaged by the Board, comes with the high est recommendations as to character, talents, lite rary attainments and skill in teaching, and the Trustees feel assured that he will sustain the re putation which led to his selection. The branch of the Academy at Summerville is under the immediate management of Mr. Frank lin George, a gentleman of experience in teach ing, and highly- recommended. The advantage of the location of this branch of the Academy in one of the most healthful neighborhoods in the State, and sufficiently remote from the unfavorable in fluence of a crowded town, are too well known to need comment. On the whole, the Board confidently recommend to the public the principal Academy and the Branch at Summerville, as being on a better footing than they have heretofore been, and promising great usefulness to those who may avail themselves of the advantages which they offer.
