CITIZENS of this beautiful and healthy State, allow me, a native Georgian , the pleasure to call your attention to one of the greatest and most useful Medicines ever discovered—one of a simple : and harmless nature—one which has proved itself to be an infallible remedy for Ihe FEVER AND AGUE, effecting a certain and speedy cure. The time mentioned is truly very short, and will he doubted by many, but 1 have certificates f.-om the first Physicians a.id of geu.lemen of the highest re spectability of Savannah, where 1 reside. It is known by all that a poison will soon circulate through and effect the whole human system, then why nut a simple and one that is harmless? This Medicine is not a Notihem Humbug, but a South trn Remedy altogether. It is made in the city of Savouiwk —it is recommended by ci'izeus of Sa- j vannah, Geo* gia, Soioh Carolina, Florida, <fec.; and to be candid, all my Printing is Southern, executed by Mr. E. J. Purse , of SoxmnvCi; so you will at once see it is altogether a Southerner, and if it was my intention to humbug any c immunity, I would not choose gentlemen’s names that are welll known and in »he same ploce where 1 reside. I submit the testimony of re side ns of this city, among ' whom are the first Physicians, and I presume you are acquainted with man* ol them. The Medi cine offered to the world, is a saie, certain and speedy cu.e f<>r Fever and Ague, which it will do in the venf short space of Tureloe Hon s. As Flori da is a newly settledcou dry,it is liable to a great j deal of this troublesome < bease, and it will be to i the advantage of every family to keep a supply on I hand. Citizens of Florid.- : it is not my inlention to weary your patience with a string of nonsense or of advertisements, so»- I can assure you that I am pretty well used up in this part of the work; but I wish you to try this Medicine and satisfy your selves, and you will for ihe first time believe that a dise. se could be ct- r ed in Picelve Hours, and the o dy way to p ove it >s to try it. I really do not know why a Southern Medicine should not be as good as one that is manufactured at the North. My Medici *e has effected a perfect j Cure where all others have failed. I admit there tire many othe r remedies, but not one that can be come so popular, and so certain of curing <his com plaint, as Humparcijs ’ Remedy , < r Fectr and Ague. Onlv think for a m .ment. 'Pwelve Hours to be a healthy manl It is strange, very strange, that truth should need so much boasting at last; but such is this Worid. I WiH not tax you with any more of this, but willingly I leave the Medicine to recom mend itself to Florida. And now, to close, I tdedge my honor the Medicine does not contain any Mercury or any Mineral Preparation whatever: U is a Vege table only. 1 am respectfully, yours, &c. W. HUMPHREYS. Jr.. Druggist, Corner Bay and Drayton-streets, Savannah. SOUTH CAROLINA. PLANTERS of this noble State, 1 ask you to give the above Medicine one and a fair trial, and you w>ll find it to excel all the humbugs of the North.

GRISWOLD’S IMPROVED COTTON gins. THE subscriber will continue the manufacture of GINS on his usnAl extensive scale; and embraces this opportunity to thank his numerous customers for their liberal patronage heretofore. l — estimation in which his Gins are held may be known from the fact of his having sold more than two thousand within the last three years; probably ten to one over any other factory in the State.—* This evidence of the superiority of his Gins, is ac counted for, by his being the first to introduce the late improvements, and keeping the lead, by year ly adding new ones. His first and second improve ments, made the quality of cotton perfect, though some were rather slow, his third made them suffi ciently fast, it then only remained to make them more durable and convenient, which has been done effectually, by several new improvements the pre sent year; besides, he has the exclusive right of the State, and the privilege of other sections, to furnish Reed's Patent Water Boxes, which are believed to be ten times more durable than any other, by thdse who have made a fair trial of them, and arfe infalli bly sec are against fire by firiction. His fine Gins, will gin Mastodon Cotton as well as any Saw Gin can. His agents will visit planters generally, and exhibit specimens of his late improvements, and point out their advantages, in time, for all to en gage, and be supplied before next ginning season, or, engagements can be made by letter, directed to him at Clinton, Jones county, Georgia. Gins, will be delivered at the purchaser’s residence in an'" part of the State, except the Cherokee counties where they will be left at the Rail Road depot, most convenient to the purchaser. All warranted to perform well if used according to the printed directions sent with each. SAMUEL GRISWOLD.
