of this beautiful and healthy State
\_y allow me, a native Georgian, the pleasure to
iaii your attention to one of the greatest and most
luvi j Medicines ever discovered —one of a simple
ana harmless nature—one which has proved itself
to be an infallible remedy for the FLYER AND
AGUE, effecting a certain and speedy cure. The ;
time mentioned is truly very short, and will be
doubted by many, but 1 have certificates from the
first Physicians and of gentlemen 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 not a simple and One that is harmless/ 1 his
Medicine is not a Northern Humbug, but a South
ern Remedy altogether. It is made in the city of
Savaunak~lt is recommended by citizens ot Su- ;
vannah , Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, &c.; and j
to be candid, all my Printing is Southern, executed j
by Mr. E. J- Purse, of Savannah; so you will at
once see it is altogether a Southerner, and if it was
my intention to humbug any c ‘mmunity, I would
not choose gentlemen’s names that are we 111 known
and in the same place where i reside. I submit
the testimony of residents of this city, among !
whom arc the first Physicians, and I presume you
are acquainted with many of them. The Medi
cine offered to the world, is a safe, cer ain and
speedy cure for Fever and Ague, which it will do
in the very short space of Ticelre Hows. At Flori
da is a newly settled country, it is liable to a great
deal of this troublesome disease, and it will be to
the advantage of every family to keep a supply on
hand. Citizens of Florida: it is not my intention
to weary your patience with a string ol nonsense
or of advertisements, for I can assure you that lam
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 the first time believe that
a disease could be cured in Twelve Hours, and the
only way to prove it is 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 Medicine has effected a perfect
cure where all others have failed. 1 admit there
are many other remedies, but not one that can be
come so popular, and so certain of curing this com
plaint, as Humphreys’ Remedy for Fever and Ague.
Only think for a moment. Twelve Hours lobe a
healthy man! It is strange, very strange, that truth
should need so ranch boasting at last; but such is
this world. I will not tax you with any more ol
this, but willingly 1 leave the Medicine to recom
mend itself to Florida. And now, to close, 1 pledge
my honor the Medicine does not contain any Mercury
or any Mineral Preparation whatever; it is a Vege
table only.
I am respectfully, yours, &c.

NOTICE TO COTTON PLANTERS.
IWILL say to the cotton planters of Georgia and
South Carolina, I have taken the shop formerly
occupied by S. R. Crenshaw, for the purpose of
manufacturing COTTON GINS, and would also '
inform them that I have engaged 3lr. Crenshaw,
who will superintend the mar. ufacturing of them. —
Gins shall be made of the best materials, and I I
can say with propriety they are the cheapest gins
now in the Southern States, taking the workman- I
' ship in consideration. I will warrant my gins to
make cotton equal to any made on any other gins
to the Southern States, giving the true staple of I
the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and
; clear of moats. My gins will be delivered at the |
purchaser’s residence free of charge and warrant
ed to give ample satisfaction.
All orders addressed to the subscriber will meet i
with prompt attention; repairing done in good style I
; and at short notice. All old gins of 10 inch saws I
' will repair and put them on improved principles,
and also warrant them to make as good cotton as
any of the improved gins, and at a much less cost
than a new gin. J. D. IIAMMACK.
Crawlbrdviile, Ga. ? May 4.
I will say to the planters who may favor Mr.
Hammack with their patronage 1 will exert all the
ability 1 have in superintending the shop; and every
gin sent from the shop shall be in complete order,
and warranted to be the cheapest gins ever offered
to the public; and from my long experience in the
business, I know the gins cannot he surpassed, al
though agents from other shops have resorted to
the contemptible practice of slandering me and
saying my gins have prostrated me, though it is not
true. In full confirmation of what I say, I offer a
few certificates from gentlemen who have used my I
gins, and could furnish many more of this kind, if I
required. S. R. CRENSHAW.
Dear Sir: I have used the Gin bought of you for
two years, and 1 very cheerfully recommend it to
the Cotton planters of Oglethorpe and other coun- j
1 ties of Georgia. It turns off sufficiently fast to
make good Cotton—it being 50 saws—will throw
out about 800 lbs, of lint a day. The quality of the
Cotton has, in Augusta, ranged half cent higher at
each of my sales than other sales of those days,
and it has been pronounced by those considered
competent to judge, as in no way inferior to the
j Cava Gin. Yours, very respectfully.
F. MERIWETHER.
April 24th, 1347.
Oglethorpe Co., April 22,1817
I have used for the last three years a machine
that was made by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawford
ville. I consider it one of the best I have
ever seen. Two small mules will gin, with a great
deal of ease, three bales per day, and 1 do not
think there is a gin in Georgia that can excel it in
making fine cotton. In fact, 3lr. Crenshaw has
; sold a great many gins in this county and Elbert,
j and 1 think that every man who has purchased is
perfectly satisfied. All of his gins which have been
sold in this county, and they are not a few run light,
pick fast, and what is better than all, when the col
on is carried to market it sells for the very highest
price C. S. MERIWETHER.
Craw for dvilLE, May 4, 1847.
Mr. J. D. Hammack —l certify that I bought of
S. R. Crenshaw, last year, a forty-five saav anti
friction Cotton Gin. which performs well and makes
as good cotton as the Carver Gin. in mv opinion.
P. G. RHOME.
This is to certify that I purchased one of Mr. S.
R. Crenshaw’s improved anti-friction Cotton Gins
last year, and find it to be superior to any Gin I
have ever used. 1 think it superior to the Carver
Gins. It makes superior cotton, giving the true
staple of the article, and gins 900 lbs. of clean cot
ton per day, and runs very light.

GRISWOLD’S IMPROVED COTTON
GINS.
THE subscriber will continue the manufacture
of GINS on his usual extensive scale; and
embraces this opportunity to thank his numerous
customers for iheir liberal patronage heretofore.—
The estimation in which his Gins are held may Lo
known from sold more than
mmsdttd within the last three vears; probably
ten to one over any other factory in tiie State.—
This evidence of the superiority of his Gins, is ac
counted for, by his being the first to introduce the
lute improvements, and keeping the lead, by year
ly audiag new ones. His first and second improve
ments, made the quality of cotton perfect, though
some were rather stew, his third made them sutfi
i ciently last, it then only remained to make them
more durable aud convenient, which has been done
effectually, by several new improvements the pre
> sent year; besides, he has the exclusive fight of the
State, and the privilege ol other sections, to furnish
Reed’s Patent \V ater Boxes, which are believed to
i be ten times more durable than any other, by those
who ha> e made a fair trial of them, and are infalli
bly secure against fire by function. His fine Gins,
will gin Mastodon Cotton as well as any Saw Gin
■ can. His agents will visit planters generally, and
i exhibit specimens ut his late improvements, and
point out their advantages, in time, for all to en
gage, and be supplied betore 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
. i )art <>f the State, except the Cherokee counties
. where they will be left at the Rail Road depot.
. most convenient to the purchaser. All warranted
f perform well if used according to the printed

PROSPECTUS OF THE COLUMBUS
TIMES.
HA\ TNG been for four years the Editor of the

endeaAored to be, are bA' this time sufficiently ac
quainted with him to knoAv whether he is worthy
, ?!M M 110 * 1 confidence and support as a Democratic
the Lditonal management of this paper, the estab
iishment Avas very much depressed in point of pros
perity. I suav at once that the paper Avas to be built
up de novo, before a hope could be entertained of its
prosperity. Its subscription list, not so large by one
halt as it should be, had run to Aveed, and avus en
cumbered Avith many bad and doubtful names.—
Tins required purgation and renovation. Confidence
in the stability and permanence of the paper had to
be established. In short the prestige of its success
Avas all to be created by the exertions of myself and
partners. \N bile we have done much tOAvards the
1 accomplishment ol the object, more remains to be
done. And it becomes necessary for me to say to my
political friends, that if they desire me to continue
at my present post, they must give such tokens of
that desire and their approbation as will ena
ble me to afford to do so. The present is deem
ed an auspicious time to present this subject
to my political friends. The Governor’s elec
tion is at hand. Our candidate is of Western
Georgia, “born of the Manor.” and avc should
take the lead in giving him a support that will ex
hibit'. Avhat aa'c who know him best, think of him.
Popular, aide, and faithful to his political principles.
—George W . 1 oavus offers to his friends, at once
the strongest incentives to an active and earnest
support, and a cheering guarantee of his success.
1 o the attainment of important ends, means must
always be consulted. The press and the stump are
the engines ol political enlightenment and the
means of success in the propagation and triumph
ot political principles. 1 believe 1 can unhesita
tingly appeal to my course as a Democratic Editor,
as a proof of my fidelity and single-hearted pur
pose to achieve the true honor and A'ictorious sue
cess of Democratic principles. By what has pass
ed, I am willing to be judged for the future. With
renewed energy and rekindled enthusiasm in the
cause, I come IbrAvard to ask of the Democratic Par
ty, such encouragement, in the unequivocal shape
ol a largely increased circulation, as Avill at the
same time enable me to feel that I am both useful
to my party, and true to myself and those depend
ant upon my exertions, in the editorial profession
to Avhich 1 am attached.
AN ith these views, the following prospectus some
what varying from our usual terms is put forth.
Persons obtaining subscribers will please forward

PROSPECTUS
OF A NEW JOURNAL!
theTrepublic.
tUfTbis is the title of a New Paper,
which the subscriber proposes to publish in the
City of Augusta.
The Republic will advocate with zeal, and main
tain with fidelity, the great and conservative prin
ciples of the Whib Party. Home Industry
will receive a cordial support, and be ardently sus
tained in opposition to systems calculated to foster j
| Foreign interests at the expense of American, i
The Distribution among the States ok the 1
Proceeds of the Sales of the Public '
Lands, will be urged as soon as the state of the .
i national finances will permit, as a measure of ex
! pediency and justice. The Sub-Treasury will
be opposed, as a scheme for keeping and disburs
( ing the public funds—less safe and economical
than the agency of Banks. The Acquisition of
Foreign Territory will be opposed as unne
j cessary for the wants of our people, dangerous to
the peace and safety ot the Union, and utterly ad
verse to Southern security. Peace with Mexi
co will be advocated as a measure to be honestly ,
and honorably consummated at the earliest prac i
i tic able period.
For the sake of brevity, we will define our course
no farther in reference to National politics and
I affairs. The Republic will as ardentlv sustain
Whig policy and measures in Georgia as it
will those for the Union at large. The views
of the subscriber, in reference to State interests,
have been so often put forth in the columns of the |
| Chronicle Jj* Sentinel that it is unnecessary to re
iterate them now. Suffice it to say, that every j
effort which the Republic can make to add to the
prosperity of the great commonwealth of |
Georgia, and the happiness of her people, will be |
made as a free-will offering of one of her native
sons. The interests of Augusta will receive
a large share of his attention. Whatever can add
to her population and wealth, and the prosperity
j of her people, will be sustained by The Republic
i with unwearied devotion.
It is the fervent wish of the subscriber to see
the South and Nohth linked in the bonds of per
petual harmony and friendship. Their differences
will be to The Republic a source of constant
solicitude, and its efforts will he warmly directed
to heal their broken affections,and point to a nation
al pathway of glory, marked out by our Con
■ stitution and the wise precepts of our |
1 POLITICAL fathers.
A great struggle—a period full of danger, and !
worthy of solemn thought —peers up before us in !
■ the eventful future. When all hope of reconcilation j
is gone and our political constellation is darkened
by clouds and storms, wc shall be content to triumph j
ior fall with the South. Her final destiny shall he
| our destiny, and our faith and love shall be hers to
j the last.
While the canvass is going on.of the claims
of distinguished Whigs for the first office
within the gift of the people, The Repub- ;
I.IC WILL SUSTAIN THOSE OF THE GREATEST j
Statesman of the age, HENRY CLAY. Age j
has not yet dimmed the lustre of his genius. Time j
does not,camiot darken the moral grandeur and 1
beauty of his fame, for that is founded upon undv- i
ing devotion to his country, and public ser- I
VICES, which have given him a home in the
hearts of his countrymen.and the nation a
Lofty character abroad. Ills genius and practi- :
cal wisdonhare illumined our councils, and
BLESSED the Republic, while even sages hare
been fasainated by his eloquence in defence of
the Constitution and in efforts to preserve
the Union. Like* Star Hope, he jet shines in the
West, and patriots still look to his radiant intiuence
1 to RE-ILLDMINE THE CLOUDED PROSPECTS of THE
Republic.
This, however. will be no factious support. The |
Republic will give its best energies to effect 1
the election of Him. whom the Whigs may choose :
to lead them to anticipated victor}*. Besides its 1
political information, the Republic will furnish the i
current news of the DAT, and will be constant
ly enriched with interesting tales, essays, his
torical sketches, and otiicr literature, se
lected with a strict reference to it? purity and ex- !
cellence. It will zealously maintain the cause of
education. Particular care will be paid to its
commercial department.

Ren], m me editorial columns of that paper for the
ast twenty months, specimens of such ability for
writing as the subscriber possesses; the leading
editorials for tnat period, with few exceptions, I
having been written by himself. He desires to ,
cultivate a cordial good feeling with his brethren
of the Whig and Democratic Press. The
latter shall find in The Republic, a frank, manly,
and honorable opposition.
i'be Subscriber, in conclusion, asks for a gen- i

DR LE r s y . s
VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL PILLS.
THE startling drawback on nearly all Medicinal
; Agents has ever been that in their process of pur
! gation and purification, they have also Debilitated
the System. Hence PurgatiA r e Medicines have al
i ways been regarded as at best but a Necessant
' Evil; Patients resorting to them for the relief of
• one disease at the expense of another. To obviate
this, Physicians have long sought for an Agent that
would at the same time
PURGE PURIFY AND STRENGTHEN.
But their efforts were nearly fruitless, and they
had almost despaired of success when the labors ot
science and research, were rewarded by a discov
ery which fully realized the fondest desires of the
Medical Faculty, and which is justly regarded as
one of the most important Triumphs that Pharmacy
has ever achieved. This important desideratum is
named
Dr. Le Roy’s Vegetable Universal Pills.
hich Purify the 7 Hood, and remove all corrupt
and vitiated humors, and unhealthy accumulations from
the body in a manner never before rivalled, and
which yet produce no weakness or lassitude what
ever, but on the contrary, tone the Stomach, and
invigorate the constitution during the progress of
their operation. Dr. Le Roy’s Pills, in fact, unite
those heretofore irreconcilable, but most desirable
qualities, Evacuation and Tnri<r oration, for they are
at the same time a STRENGTHENING PURGA
TIVE, AND A PURIFYING TONIC.
'I he two paincipal ingredients in Dr. Le Roy’s
Pills are
WILD CHERRY & SARSAPARILLA.
So prepared that each promotes the beneficial ef
fect of the other, the former strengthening, while
the latter, through its union with various vegetable
ingredients, evacuates and purifies; thus they su
perinduce no torpidity or lassitude of the the Diges
tive Functions, and hence their operations are at
tended by no Re-action or Subsequent Costiveness.
Dr. Le Roy’s Pills are the most active and search
ing Medicine in existence. They at once attack
the very root ot 1 Hseases, and their action is so
prompt that in an hour or two after they are taken,
the patient is aware of their good effects. They
not only operate on the Blood, hut also on the chvle,
nl which the Blood is formed, and this secures good
blood from the fountain head, moreover, they pro
duce neither nausea, griping or debility, and as a
family medicine they have no rival. Price 25 cts.
per box.

probation of all who have tested its virtues, and so

Surprising Efficacy.
MY EAU DIVINE DE VENUS and NYMPH
SOAP, composed of an Eastern Botanical dis
covery of surprising efficacy, for rendering the
! Skin soft and fair, as well as imparting a delicate
roseate hue to the complexion.
As a creator and conservator of that most distin
guishing charm of female loveliness, a transparent
j tair skin. Jules Haiiei’s Nymph Soap of t'.au Divine
De Venus may be said to exert an almost magic?!
power. Composed for the most part of Oriental
Balsamic Plants, to the utter exclusion of all mine
ral admixture, it is distinguished medicinally for its
extremely bland, purifying and soothing action on
the skin; and by acting on the pores and minute se
cretory vessels, expels all impurities from the sur
face, allays every tendency to iinllammatian, and
by this method alone, effectually dissipates all red*
I ness, tan, prinples, freckles, sunburn and other un
sightful cutaneous so inimical to female
lovliness. Its use will change tlie most bilious com
plexion into one of radiant whiteness; while on the
neck, hands and arms it bestows a delicacy and
fairness which its continued use will happily pro
tect, and every appearance of youthful charm, to
the most ad vanced period of life For sale, whole

DR. JOEL BRANHAM’S LIVER AKD
DYSPEPTIC MEDICINE.
IN offering this valuable medicine to the people
of Georgia, for the relief and cure of many dis
eases incident to a Southern climate. I do not claim
for it infallibility; neither do I say it will cure all
diseases. But in Chronic Liver Affections and
Dyspepsia, I can confidently advise and recom
mend its use. from my personal observation and use
of the article in my own practice. 'Phis article is
favorably received wherever it lias been used. I
am allowed to refer to Mr, George Heard of Troup.
Mr. John Warren of Columbus, Mr. McKaffee of
Cobb, Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. William I),
Terrell of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dawson of La
grange; to which a great number of names might
he added, who bear their testimony to its value.—
Dr. Henry Branham has used this medicine in his
own case, and has prescribed it ft) many others,
gives it as his opinion, that it is one of the safest
and most valuable medicines that can be used in
imperfect digestion, liver complaints, constipation
and irregular state of the bowels. It is useful in
billious complaints, to persons recovering from Bil
lions fevers,and in sick or nervous bead-ache. To
pregnant women, who are subject to costiveness,
this medicine is well suited. In regulating the state
of the stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion,
it is particularly useful.
I could append a long list of certificates, but for
bear, prefering to rely on the virtues of the medi
cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle and
certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific.
