A bidder may oiler. \v here the transportation Called for in the advertisement is ditiirult o. iinpraiiculile at cer tain seasons, to substitute a ninferior mode ofconvoyance, , or to intermit service aspeefied number of days, weeks, | or months.

He may ask for more run- > ning time to the trip .during a specified number of days, at certain seasons ot peculiarly bad reads; but beyond , these changes, a proposal for service different from the ] advertisement will prevent its being considered in com petition with a regular bid not set aside for extravagance; | aud where a bid contains any of the above alterations, their disadvantages will be estimated in comparing it with oilier proposals. 14. There should be but One route bid for in a proposal, j 15. The route, the service, the yearly pay, the bidder’s ' name and residence.and the name of each member oftlio J firm, whqre a company offers, should be distinctly stated ! j —also the mode iffi conveyance, it a higher mode than ou | horseback i- intended. 10.

Postmasters at offices situated upon or near ruil -1 roads, but more than eighty rods from a depot, will.lm j mediately after the Ist April next, report that fact to the ’ department,stating t heir exact distance from the railroad depot, and how otherwise supplied w ith the mail, to eua -1 hie the Postmaster General lo direct the proper supply ’ to be made from the railroad by mail uiesscugets, from j and after the ist July next. j 19 Under the act ol'3d March, 18-45. the route is to bo let to the lowest bidder, tendering sufficient guaranties i j for faithful performance, without reference to the mode ' of transportation than maybe necessary to provide for I the due celerity, certainty, and security of such trans portation. When the lowest bid proposes a mode of conveyance that is inadequate for the route in respect to the certain ty, security, and celerity of the mails, aside from any ac commodation for travel, it will not be entitled to file route 20. When the bid does not name a mode of conveyance, it w ill be taken and understood to beforthe lowest inode of conveyance to wit: on horeback. When it proposes to ! carry according to the advertisement and no mode of | conveyance is stated for the route in the advertisement, it w ill be considered as offering only fur horseback con veyance. 21. Since the passage of the act of March 3, 1645, a | new description ofbid has been received. It specifics no mode of conveyance, hut engages tu carry the mail with certainty, celerity, and security, using the terms of the law. These bids are called.from the manner in which they are designated onthe hooks of the department,; bid." It has been decided, after mature consideration, that a bid proposing a specific mode of conveyance of as high a grade as two horse couch transportation is tu bo preferred to the star bid. The experience 01 - the depa t ment enables it to lay down the following rules, viz : When the mail on the route is not so large as to reqniro two horse coach conveyance, a star bid. if the lowest, will I be preferred to the specific bid. 22. When the mails are of such size and weight as to render it necessary or expedient, in reference to them j alone, to provide two-horse coach conveyance, the spe l cific bid. though the highest, will be preferred to the star j bid, to the extent of a moderate difference in Ihe compen- I satiou, in ca.-e the difference is not-nclt as to interfere j with the policy of the new law, winch looks to a reduc j tion inthecost of transportation, Fxceptions, however, I may be allowed where the st tr hid if made hy the present j owner of the stock on the route, and it is manifest that the j reasons for preferring the specific bid do not exist in i.ts | case. 23. On routes of the hsghest class, where four-horse coach or steamboat transportation is required by the size and importance of the mails,the preference for the spe j cific bid vvi II he. if necessary carried to a greater extent ; of difference than on 'he inftror coach routes, subject, however, to the exceptions above stated. 24. A modification ofa bid, in any of its essential terms is tantamount to a new bid. aud cannot be received, so as to interfere with regular competition, afterthe las* hour set for receiving bids. <JOHNSON.

JAYNE'S ALTERATIVE. fW’liilS valuable preparation combines all the ft medicinal virtues of those articles, which long experience has proved to possess the most safe and efficient alterative and deobstruent properties, rtV cure of Scrofula King’s Evil, White Swell < inns Ulcer*; Scrofulous * Cancerous and Indolent ' Tumours; A/ t cm ml and Syphilitic A[ficti<rns, Rheumatism.

Nervous Diseases, Dropsical Swellings, Constitutional Disorders unA I diseases originating from a depraved or Impure state of the Blood or other lluuis of the body. The proprietor of this Alterative would most re spectfully assure the public that he lias not offered this preparation to their notice without due reflec tion. and close and rigid study, nor until after twelve years’ experience had manifested its great superiority over every other article of the kind. — and lie now recommends it with confidence, fully j believing that the above combination of medicine ( will effectually eradicate from the system a class of disease some of w huh have heretofore been con sidered incurable. lie has prescribed it in almost every variety of disease and with unparalleled success, especially in cutaneous affections, cancerous, scrofulous and scorbutic diseases, ami diseases originating from 1 obstruction or enlargement of the glands or impuri- I ty of the blood. C.’ancer and Cancerous Tumors. lie has used tiffs preparation in upwards of twen ty well defined cases of cancer and cancerous tu mors, and ni every case but one with perfect and entire success. lirouchocele or Goitre, (Swelled Neck.T He lias prescribed it in over a hundred cases of I goitre, ami it has never failed in a single instance I to completely remove tile disease. ISot a solitary case of failure. All were cured. 1 'Tiie success he has met with in curing hroncho ! cele and cancerous affections has convinced him j that these dangerous and horrible diseases may be removed wilh as much certainty as Fever and i Ague. He does not wish to he understood as pay -1 ing that they can be cured as soon as Fever and i Ague, but with as much certainty; and further, that he has good reason for believing that this prepara ! tiou will not only c ure these diseases when formed, 1 but that it destroys the v inis or poisonous principle J lurking in the system, from which that peculiar class of diseases, as well as that of scrofula emanate. Scrofula—King's Evil. This preparation lias been used in numerous cases offscrofuia. King’s Evil, and scrofulous swellings, and always wilh the most deei led success. Skin Diseases. He has prescribed it in a great variety of cutane , ous affections, and found it successful m curing salt j rheum, or tetter, biles, blotches, pimples,laorphew ; and jaundiced skin, Arc. Dyspepsia and Diver Complaint. It has been used in numerous cases of liver corn l plaint and Dyspepsia, and with the happiest effect. Tic-Douloureux. It has been used in several cases of Neuralgia, and in every case it was successful. Itiicuiuatisni. This preparation has been prescribed in a great I many rases of chronic rhenmaism, and in every j casein which it was used until the system became affected by the medicine, the disease was removed 1 Clout. A number of cases of gout have been cured by this preparation. In one of these cases, the man had been afflicted with it so severely fur thirteen I years as to entirely disable him from business, and j for five months immediately previous to his taking | the Alterative lie had been confined to his room; | but before he had finished the third bottle, he was enabled t<> walkabout the streets and soon after re. turned to his business, from which he had so lung been excluded by Jus afflictions. Dropsical Swellings, This medicine increases the powers of digestion, excites the absorbents into healthy exercise, by wl#h watery or calcareous depositions, and all j unnatural enlargements are reduced, it imparts ! tone and vitality to the whole system, removing sick and morbid headaches,giddiness, wafuleiyhg ! pains and nervous affections. In fact, in every case where the medicine has been taken for some lime, no matter for what pur pose, the general health ol the patient bus always i been improved uy ii. j In conclusion, the proprietor would saythatsome I of the most astonishing cases of skin diseases, can i cer, brunehocele, and scrofula, have been cured t>y . this medic ine, that have ever been recorded; but i want of room in this sheet precludes their pubiicu -1 lion at this lime. CANCER. An interesting rase cured hy Jayne's Alterative. In the spring of 1831, a cancerous tumor appear ed in the right breast ofMrs. Phoebe, wife of IVier Stretch, of Salem, N. J. it was examined hy many i Physicians, and was considered by all as cancerous, and besides bore all the characteristic marks of , one. Ail probable means of removing it were used without the slightest benefit. It continued to in ; crease both in size and painfulness, until all hoj>e i of saving her life, but by a painful operation, was abandoned, which, after a consultation of eminent ' Physicians, was performed, Jan. Ist, 1832, by Dr. John Kliea Barton, assisted by Dr. Redman, the proprietor, and tw o other medical gentlemen. The whole and entire right breast was removed, and af | ter examination of the tumor, was pronounced by all present a cancer of the most malignant charac ter. In about three months,afterendtiring incredi ble sufferings, she was enabled, though broken in j spirit, to get about again. She remained feeble, j and her general health was exceedingly bad, as in , oe< lit had been for several years before. In the ! spring of 1837, upwards of five years after her breast | had been removed, a painful tumor made its ap i pearance on the right side, immediately over tiie 1 part formerly occupied hy the nipple of the right j breast, previous toils removal. This tumor steadi* j ly increased for several months, and became so j painful as to deprived her of rest. The glands un der the right arm were enlarged; and scirrhus, and i a hard, irregular, and at limes painful tumour, ap ! peared in the left breast. No operation could now j arrest thedisease. Indeed her whole bodyappear i ed to be a mass of disease. Her case was consid ' ered hopeless. She was of a very scrofulous habit, | both her parents having died of Pulmonary con* ; sumption. The experiment was now made with | tiffs Alterative. It was at first given in small ■ doses, three limes a day, and the doses very gradu- I ally, but steadily increased daily, as long as she 1 look it, which was about six months, and the skin over and around the tumour was wet night and j morning with a strong solution of lodine and Hy i driodate Potash. The tumour continued iucreas- I imr in size for about six weeks, and was at times very painful, when the pain suddenly ceased alto gether, and the tumour swelled out at the base, and became soft, and then began to diminish, and con tinued gradually decreasing until every vestige of disease was removed. The tumour in her left breast, and those in her right axilla were also dis persed. No cancerous or scrofulous tumours ever appeared afterwards; and her general health, which I had been so had for fourteen years as to make life a burthen, was effectually and permanently restored. The proprietor is in possession of the diseased breast, and those who choose may examine it. He would also say that he could mention over a dozen cases equally interesting, wherein his Alterative has subdued cancer and cancerous tumours, but he has not room here to record them. Mrs. Sarah Young, of Quinton’s Bridge. N. J., had a goitrous tumour on the left side of her wind pipe, as large as the half of an orange, which was j cured by using tiffs Alterative fur about four i months. i Miss R S . South Fourth-street, Phila delphia, was also cured of an enlargement of the throat, which filled the entire space between the chin and hreast-bonc, and extended around on each side of her neck to behind her ears, and from her ears to her shoulders, and produced awful de formity. It commenced growing when she was but five years old, and continued gradually to in crease until she was nineteen, at which time she commenced using this Alterative, which she took for seven months, which entirely reduced the en largement; and she has now as smooth and pretty a neck as can be found. The proprietor is notet liberty to give her name in print, but w ill refer per sons to her. For sale by WM. K.

'Thompson, author of ''Major Jones’ Courtship,” "Chronicles of Pint ville,” 4'< - 4'C- Tenns — 'l'u'9 Dollars, in advance. li 6TE have long regarded it as a most humiliating re ; V ▼ flection upon the South, that no professedly non j j tral family journal lias yet been sustained wMhiu heritor, i i ders. We have tested the experiment whether such a ! paper could not he supported at the immediate South, I ! amt though not wholly unsuccessful, our experience has | ■ taught us that the papers of tins class published in the ; large Northern cities, possess advantages over those of the country, which, in a measure, d tv competition. But j here the ease is different. Baltimore, standing as t does j ou the tiontier of the Southern States, is yet near enough i to the great commercial, literary and political emporium, j to be included in the neighborhood of great American i cities, and to enjoy all the advantages, as a radiating j point, which are possessed by either Philadelphia, Boston ! or New York. A paper issued from Baltimore has all the j facilities for obtaining the latest literary tmeiligence, as 1 well as the current literature of the day, foreign and do- | mestic, that are enjoyed by the journals of the Northern | cities. Tin* Western Continent is as large, as cheap, j | and can he better adapted to the wants and tastes ofSoutii- j j eru readers, than those Northern papers which now draw j ! so large an amount of their patronage from the Southern : [ public. Entertaining these views, we have looked with confi- \ I dence to the success of the Continent. Eight month’s j experience has tended to strengthen that confidence, and ] now we enter upon its publication with a firm conviction j that all that is necessary to secure for it a circulation equal to that of its Northern cotemporaries, is a faithful and energetic devotion of our best abilities to make it a useful and entertaining Family Journal. It is our de sign to make the Western Continent emphatically a Southern family paper, that may be read with interest ; and profit by every member of a Southern family.— i With this view, we shall draw for our literary depart- i meat, from the best sources,such m ilter as will interest and entertain the mind, without offending the taste or \ orruptiug the morals of our readers. Fains will be taken togive the latest intelligence on all subjects of interest to the general reader, to the exclu- ; sion of the vast amount of local matter, such as personal , gossip, police reports, theatrical and other criticism-, j which make up so large a portion ofthe staple of some of the popular weeklies of the North. In a word, though we shall endeavor to make our paper interesting to all,, our chief aim shall he to adapt it to the wants and tastes of tile people of the South and South-West, upon whom, : and these of our own city who are disposed to sustain | such a journal, we must m duly depend for support. R lying more upon the intrinsic merits of our paper, than on any promises we might make in a prospectus, ; we will close by appealing to the readers of the South and West for a share of that patronage which they so | liberally bestow upon the overgrown weeklies of the North. Terms—The Western Continent is printed ou a mam- : moth sheet of3o by 44 inches, on fair type, and securely 1 mailed to subscribers, at Two Dollars per annum, 'n advance.

THE WASHINGTON UNION. fWlllL “DAILY UNION” will be published, as here -BL tofore.at §lO per annum, payable in advance. Its character hitherto has been almost exclusively political. We purpose in future to devote a portion of its columns to domestic news of general interest, and to miscellane ous literature, w hich, without impairing its political in fluence, may rentier it the more acceptable to an ex tended class of readers. The. “8E Ml-WEEKLY UNION” will he published | every Monday and Thursday, during the recess of Cou -1 gross, at §5 per annum. This contains all the matter i contained in the" Daily Union," except local advertise | inents. During the sessions of Congress three numbers, I instead of two, will be issued, without any extra charge to subscribers. E:\LiIKIiEME\T «P THE WEEKLY UMOV. 'l’lte “WEEKLY UNION” is issued every Saturday; I and as arrangements are in progress to enlarge it to j near double its present size, we shall soon be enabled to 1 give nearly every article \v inch may appear in the daily j and semi-weekly editions,at the extremely low rate of (d. We propose also to give, in this edition, a complete ! synoptical summary of the proceedings iu both houses i of Congress—.thus rendering the “\V# ;kly Union" a ! most valuable channel of information to all classes of | our country. But, to remunerate us for this enterprise, i an extensive subscription list is absolutely iudispensa ! ble. We seize this opportunity to add that some delay has | taken place in putting our paper to press, which has | prevented its early delivery to our readers, and conse i queutly circumscribed its circulation. We shall make arrangements to remedy this defect, and to obviate this 1 | objection. After the present week we trustthat no com- j j plaint will be made upon this subject. CONGRFSSIONAL REGISTER. 1 n addition to the foregoing, we have resolved to pub- 1 lish,during the sessions of the national legislature, a i "Congressional Register." to be issued weekly, and to ! j contain a Ftxc report of the daily proceedings and de. ; i bates of both houses. Indeed, the arrangements which . we have made with the very best corps of reporters will enable us to give even more full and extended reports j than we have produced during tills session, superior a* j we claim ihem to be toany preceding ones. The Regis ter will be made 110 from the daily reports in the “Union.” I carefully revised hy an experienced editor.and will con stitute a complete and authentic record ofthe session. An appendix will be added, uniform with the Register, and to be seut gratuitously to subscribers, comprising a li.-t of the acts passed during the session, with a synopsis j of their contents, and a reference, when necessary, to pre i viouslegislation. Thiswi (form the most complete his , tory of the sessions of Congress,and will be furnished at the low price of seventy-five cents for the next session. Ulr' Postmasters are authorized to act as our agents; and by sending us five yearly subscribers, with the sub scription money, for either the Daily, Semi-Weekly, or Weekly, will bo entitled to one copy of the same edition \ as f hev furnish us subscribers for.

IN offering this valuable medicine to the peopl* of Georgia, for the relief and cure of many dis eases incident to a southern climate, I do not claim for il infalibility; neither do I say it will cure all diseases. But in Chronic Liver Affections and Dys pepsia, I can confidently advise and recommend its use, from my personal observation and use of the article in my own practice. This article is favora bly received wherever it has been used. lam al lowed to refer to Mr. George Heard of Troup, Mr. John Warren of Columbus, Mr. Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. \N iili.un D. Ter rell of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dav\> nos Lagrange; to which a great number of names might he added, who bear their testimony toils value. Dr. Henry Branham has used this medicine in Ills own case, and has prescribed il to many others, gives il as hi* opinion, that it is one of the safest and most valua ble medicines that can be used in imperfect diges tion, liver complaints, constipation and irregular state of the bowels. It is useful in bilious com plaints, to persons recovering from bilious fevers, and in siek or nervous head-ache. To pregnant women, who are subjec t to costiveness, this medi cine is well suited. In regulating the state of the stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion, ivis particularly useful. 1 could append a long list of certificates, hut for bear, prefer! ng to rely on the virtues of the medi cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle and certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific. JOEL BRANHAM, Eaionton,Ga. Price $ I—For sale by march 11 A.G. WILLIS. fIAMPHINE OlL.—Thisarticleis to be had Vv fresh,at* J.
