Prospectus of a New Work to be entitled i GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED, IN a series of original pictures, on steel, with let ter press descriptions. The plan of publishing in successive numbers pictorial works, illustrative of the scenery of countries, has long been a popu lar one in Europe, and is rapidly gaming favor in oui own country. The proposition to issue such a w#rk, devoted to the scenery of Georgia, although novel, will find universal favor, and be regarded as it is by the Edit or, a plan at once felicitous and feasible. 1 here is much scenery in our Slate,that is not surpassed in beauty and sublimity, by that of any other Stale in the Union. The upper counties ab und in scenes, which need only be known to command the admi ration ol all who love the beauties of nature. — Much of the scenery of the North is inferior to our own, but is yet vDitcd by thousa simply because it has been written sung and ‘■•lionized,’ by au thors and travellers until its beauty lias become j universally known and appreciated. It is deniable that attention should be directed toourown resour ces of picturesque in natural scenery, and when this is done, our own and Northern tourists will speedily render our beautiful views as immortal as our language. The South is charged with general indifference to the progress of Literature and Fine Arts; and probably the strongest foundation for the charge is found in tier inaction in enterprise calculated to fos ter these objects. The publication ot the propos ed work will it is believed, be an effective blow at the foundation, a step towards the establishment of our literary reputation, to which end much hon orable effort is now directed. A third consideration and the last which w ill now be urged, is the intrinsic value of such publi cation as “ Georgia Illustrated.” Jt will embo dy the representations of the beautiful and sublime in our State scenery, and atford to all, at a trifling expense, exact pictures of our mountains, vallies, cataracts, public buildings, &c., which they may or may not otherwise behold, but which, in either case, would afford peculiar pleasure. The proposed work w ill be executed in a style superior to any similar pictorial work in the coun try. The plates will be executed on steel by em inent engravers, from original drawing, made ex pressly for the purpose, by Mr. T. Addi-on Rich ards, of Augusta. The engravings will be accom companied with letter press descriptions, prepared for the work, and in this department the editor j will secure, as far as possible, the assistance and co-operation of our best writers, in short, no pains will be spared to make thd work a perfei t gem of the kind, to the end that it may meet a welcome •reception not only at home but also abroad. CONDITIONS. I. “Georgia Illustrated,” will be issued in ; monthly parts, in the quarto form, at $5 per annum invariably in advance, or at 50 cents lor each part, payable on delivery. 11.

MOFFAT’S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES f (THESE medicines are indebted for their name I to thi ir manifest and sensible action in puri fying the spring and channels ot life, and enduing them w ith renewed tone and vigor. In manv hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost every species of disease lo which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac knowledged by the persons henefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compoun led, and upon w hich they consequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themseives in diseases ot every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the coals ol the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities eon-tamly settling around them ; anu to remove the hardened faeces which collect convoiusions of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costtveness with 11 its train of evils, or mu sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This lact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death : and hence tbe prejudh e of those well informed men against quack ineilh mes—or medicines prepared and her laded to the public bv ignorant p< rsons. ihe &e- j corn) effect of the Lile Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the j liver and the lungs, the healthful action ot which | entirely depends upon the regularity ol the urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red color from the agency ol the liver and the longs before ir passes info the heat, being tnus pnrifinl by them and nourished hy loud coming from a clean stom ach, courses Ireely th ough the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts lire banner of health in the blooming cheek.

In fever and ague, paiticularly, the Life Medicines have been must eminently successful; so much so that in tiie Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according lo the directions. It is not by a news paper notice, or any thirg that lie Iniiiself may soy in their tavor, that he hopes lo gam credit. It is alone hy ihe result ol a lair trial.

The extraordinary reputation that Dr Spohn’s remedy ior this distressing cumpaiiit is every day gaining is certainly a matter ol much astonishment, That so m ich suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual proventiv *, or cure,is truly a subject ot much regrei but Dr. 8. now assures the public that such a r, rnctiy has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The ynncipieson which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a milled la« t that this complaint, whether called Bick Headache, or Aervous Headache, arises prim arily Irom the stomach—those who ihink they have the Nervous Headache may rest assurer! that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th .sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, tlnough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration ol the natural and healthy functions ol the system, 'i bis object, Dr Bpo tin's remedy is eminently calculated to attain.
