Q3Q 3 § [Translated from the German.] LOUIS OFFON GOELICKE, of Germany, The Greatest of Human Benefactors. Citizens of North and South America , To Louis Offon Goelicke, M. D., of Germany, [Europe,] belongs the imperishable honor of adding a new and precious doctrine to the scfonce of medi cine—a doctrine which, though vehemently opposed by many of the faculty, (of which he is a valuable member,) he proves to be as well founded in truth as any doctrine of Holy Writ —a doctrine, up >p the verity of which are suspended the lives of mi llions of our race, and which he boldly challenges op posers to refute, viz : Consumption is a dise?'4e al wavs occasioned by a disordered state of Vis- it® (or*Life Principle) of the human body: secretly lurking in the system for years by fore there is the least complaint of the Lungs md which may be as certainly, though not so quickly, cured, as z common cold or a simple headache.• An invaluably precious doctrine this, as D irr:par|.s an important lesson to the apparently healthy of! both sexes, teaching them that this insidious foejmay be an unobserved inmate of their “ clayey houses” even while they imagine themselves secure Srcm As attacks, teaching them that the great secret ijithe art of preserving health is to pluck out the disease when in the blade, and not wait till the full gf.iwn ear. . This illustrious benefactor of man is also entitled to youi unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude iff a world,for the invention of his matchless Sanative, —whose healing fiat may justly claim lor it sych a title, since it has so signally triumphed over our great common enemy, (JX/’ Consumption, botji in the first and last stages, —a medicine which] has thoroughly filled the vacuum in the MateriaMeijica, an(j thereby proved itself the i Conqueror of phy tic iansjff) —a medicine, lor which all mankind will have abundant cause to bless the beneficent hand of a kind Providencea medicine wondrous virtues have been so glowingly pourtiay ed even by same of our clergy, in their pastltral visits to tee sick chamber ; by which means tpey often become the happy instruments of changinglie sponding into hope, sickness into health, and s|ui of friends into joyfulness | 4 A Q Q Q j GOELICKE’S MATCHLESS SANATIVEf A medicine of more value to man than the 'y,st mines of Austria, or even the united treasures of our globe,—a medicine, which is obtained eqxuM.y from the vegatable, animal and mineral kingdoms, and thus possesses a three-fold power, —a medieijie, which, though designed as a remedy for consump tion solely, is possessed of a mysterious influence over many diseases of the human system, —a mc|U cine, which begins to be valued by physicians,v>\\o are daily witnessing its astonishing cures of ma: y whom they had icsigned to the grasp of the tiable Grave.

But, oj ; hearing so much said about the Sanative, against i* and for it, we were induced, from motives of cum* osity merely, to make trial of its reputed virtue.* upon a number of our most hopeless patients; ans we now deem it our bounden duty (even at th(j expense of self-interest) publicly to acknowledge its efficacy in curing not only consumption, bu| other fearful maladies, which we have heretofore believed to be incurable. Our contempt for th», discoverer of this medicine was at once swallo.ved up in our utter astonishment at these unexpected results ; and, as amends for our abuse ot him, wr do frankly confess to the world, that we believd him a philanthropist, who does honor to the profes-| sicn, and to our country, which gave him birth. » The recent adoption of this medicine into some; of our European hospitals, is a sufficient guaranty* that it performs all promises. It needed not our? estimouy,for wherever it is used it is its own best* wi ness. HERM AN ETMULLER, m. d. ! WALTER VAN GAULT, m. d. J ADOLPHUS WERNER, M.

THE subscriber will sell his house and lots, si tuated in the town of Madison, Morgan coun ty, upon liberal terms, having more vested in town property than be has any use for. The stand is one of the best in Madison, well calculated for a house of entertainment, dry good store, or whole sale grocery. The property will be sold for ne groes, dry goods, groceries, or rail road stock, upon fair terms, and possession given on the first of Ja nuary next, or sooner if required; and for good pa per, well secured, at one, two, and three years, by paying one-third when is given. For a house of entertainment there is a good opening at present, and when the rail road is completed to Ma dison, will make the property valuable for any bu siness of the place. In the event of a sale, the sub scriber will continue his mercantile operations as heretofore, having another stand for his business. IHAD. B. REES, feb 13—w7t* Madison, Ga. Sketch of a Small Beer Politician. “Mr. Simeon Jenkins entered at an early stage of his career upon the arena of public life, hav ing been employed by his honored mother to dis pose of a basket full of hard-boiled eggs, on elec tion day, before he was eight years old. He of ten dwells with much unction upon this, his de but ; aad declares that even at that dawning pe riod, he had cut his eye teeth. •There was’nt a feller there,’Mr. Jenkins often says, ‘that could find out which side I was on, for all they tried hard enough. They thought I was soft, but I let ’em know I was as much baked as any on ’em. ‘Be you a democrat!’ says one. ‘Buy some eggs and I’ll tell ye, says I; and by the time he’d bought his eggs, I could tell well enough which side he belonged to, and I’d hand him out a ticket accordingly, fori had blue ones in one end o’ my basket, and whites ones in the other, and when night come, and I got off the stump to go home, I had 18 shillin’ and four pence in my pocket.” From this auspicious commencement may be dated Mr. Jenkins’ glowing desire to serve the public. Each successive election day saw him at his post. From eggs he advanced to pies, from pies to almanacs, whiskey, powder and shot, foot balls, playing cards, and, at length, for ambition ever “did grow with what it fed on,” he brought into the field a large turkey, which was tied to a post and stoned to death at twenty-five cents a throw. By this time the still youthful aspirant had become quite the man of the world; could smoke twenty-four cigars per diem, if any hotly else would pay fer them; play cards in old Hur-- ler’s shop, from noon till day-break, and rise win ner ; and all this with suitable trimmings of gin and hard words. But he never lost sight of the main chance. He has made up his mind to serve his country, and he was all this time convincing his fellow-citizens of the disinterested purity of his sentiments. “ Patriotism,” he would say, ‘ patriotism is the thing! Any man that is too proud to serve his country, ainf fit to live. Some think so much o’ themselves, that if they can’t have jist what they think they’re fit for, they won’t take nothing: but for my part, I call myself an American citi zen ; and any office that’s in the gift o’the people will suit me. I’m to any thing. And as there aint no other man about here—no suitable man, I mean—that’s got a horse, why Fd be willing to be constable, if tiie people’s a mind t®, though it would be a dead loss to me in my business, to be sure ; but I could do any thing for my country. Hurrah for patriotism ! that’s my sentiments.’ “It can scarcely be doubted that Mr. Jenkins became a very popular citizen, or that be usually played a conspicuous part at the polls. Offices began to fall to his share, and though they were generally such as brought him more honor than profit, otiice is office, and Mr. Jenkins did not grumble—Things were going on admirably. “ The spoils of office glitter in his eyes, He climbs,he pants, he grasps them Or thought he was just going to grasp them,- when presto I he found himself in the minority ; the wheel of fortune turned, and Mr. Jenkins and his party were left undermost. He was in a dilem ma T His zeal in the public service was as ardent as ever, but how could he get a chance to shew it unless his party was in power] His resolution was soon taken. He called friends together, mounted a stump, which had fortunately been left standing not far from the door of his shop, and then and there gave “ reasons for my ratting” in terms sublime enough for any meridian. “ ‘My friends and fellow citizens,’ said this self sacrificing patriot, ‘I find myself conglomerated' in sich away, that my leclin’s suffers severely. I’m sitivated in a peculiar sitivation. O’ one side I see my friends, pusssonal friends—friends, that’s stuck to me like wax, through, thick and thin, never shinny in’ off and on, but up to the scratch, and no mistake. O’ t’other side I hold my coun try, my bleedin’ country, the land that fetched me into this world o’ trouble. Now, sence things he as they be, and, can’t be otherways as I see, F> feel kind o’ screwed into an augur hole to know what to do. If I hunt over the lastory of the universal world, from the creation of man Id the present day, I see that men has always had diffi culties, and that some has took one way to get out of ’em, and some another. My candid and unrefragable opinion is, that rather than remain useless, buckled down to the shop, and indulging in selfishness, it is ray solemn dooty to change my ticket. It is severe, my friends, but dooty is dooty. And now, if any man calls me a turn, coat,’ continend the orator, gently spitting in his hands, rubbing them together, and rolling his eyes round the assembly, ‘ all I say is, let him say it so that I can hear him.” “ The last argument was irresistible, if even the others might have baulked discussion, for Mr. Jeakins stands six feet two in his stockings, when he wears any, and gesticulates with a pair of arms as long and muscular as Rob Roy’s. So, though, the audience did not cheer him they contented themselves with dropping off one by one, without calling in question the patriotism of the rising statesman. ' “The very next election saw Mr. Jenkins jus tice of the peace, and it was in this honorable ca pacity that I have made most of my acquaintance with him, though we began with threatenings of a storm. He called to tike the acknowledgment of a deed, and I, anxious for my country’s honor, for I too am something of a patriot in my own ' way, took the liberty of pointing out to his notice a trifling slip of the pen ; videlicit— ‘ Justas of Piece,’ which manner of writing those words I informed him had gone out of date. “ He reddened, looked at me very sharp for a momentt, and then said he thanked’ me;-but sub joined t u ‘ Book-learning is a good thing enough where there aint too. much of it. For my part, I’ve seen a good many that know’d books that did’nt know much else. The proper cultivation and edication of the human intellect, has been the comprehensive study of the human understanding from the original creation of the universal world to the present day, and there has been a good many ways tried besides book-learning. Not but what that’s very well in its place.’ “ And the justice took his leave with somewhat of a swelling air. But we are excellent friends, notwithstanding this hard rub; and Mr. Jenkins, favors me now and then with bait an hour s con versation, when he has had leisure to read up for the occasion in an odd volume of the Oyclopaidia, which holds an. honored place in a corner of his shop. He ought, in fairness, to give me previous notice, that I might study the dictionary a little, for the hard words with which he arms himself for these‘keen encounters,’ often push me to the very limits of my English,” Abksgk of Mixb.—A steamdoatistarted from one of the landings above a few days since, lea ving one of the passenger on shore.
