Southern Periodicals. examiner, southern quarlerly re view AND SOUTHERN LITERACY MES SENGER. The South must have a literature of her own. We must, if we would be in dependent in mind, support Southern intellect. It is as vigorous, as varied, as sprightly, as elegant as that of any people in the world. If such were not the case then we might have some ex cuse for neglecting them. Compare the Examiner with any literary journal in the country. It has no supeiior. We know of but one Northern paper that anything like equals it, and they are both published in the same style, yet it has a larger circulation than the Exam iner, and probably in the South. This should not be so. The Examiner is the best literary paper ever published at the South, and superior to the Northern ones. Why then shall it not be sus tained. Bro. Johnston you will yet reap the rich harvest you so justly de serve, for your untiring and laborious efforts in behalf of Southern literature. Then there is the Southern Quarterly Review. Will you show its equal in North America \ It is not there. Are the British Reviews or Blackwood equal to it? Examine them aud you must say no. It is no exaggeration to say that no publication now made in the world is superior to it. We wish its enterprising publishers and editor that abundant success the South and the whole country owe them. Then there is another magazine of in termediate character between the Exam iner and the Review, we mean the South ern Literary Messenger, which, also from the ability, eare and talent with which it is published deserves a liberal support from the South ; indeed, in its department it is the equal of either of the others. lit re, then, are three Southern jour als filling up the whole field of periodi cal literature which can challenge com parison with the world. They are pub lished at the South, by men of Southern -sentiment and feeling, who are alive to the great and important interests of Southern civilization. Every man of liteiary pretentions should support them. Every parent should place themjn the hands of the children. They have in augurated a better and a brighter day for Southern literature, and afford the means by which to shatter in fragments the bands which bind us in slavish alle giance to Northern intellects. Let them be supported as they merit, by all Southern men from Maine to Flor ida. —Newberry Rising Sun. “ Beli.e Buittan” at the Conff.s aiONAL. — The lively Newport correspon dent of the N. Y. Mirror thus confesses: I have not been a “ young lady ” long; but I have already seen enough to con vince me of the hollow mockery of what is termed fashionable society; and I would much rather be known as the simple hearted country girl—“ the flower of the plantation,” the idol of the “ colored people ” at home, than to reign here “ the belle of the season admired for my fading beauty ; courted for my father's “ uncertain riches and abused for the very “charms” that make up my at tractions Curious Names. —Newspapers are unusually hard run for names. But those in Ohio form an exception.— Some of theirs are original enough. There is a “Screw Driver,” a “ Warn ing Bell,” a “Fountain,” a “Star in the West,” a “Forum,” an “Aurowz,” a “ Dollar,” a “ Rainbow,” a “ Touch Stone,” a “ Toledo Blade,” a “ Torch Light,” and “ The Ark,” among the Cin cinnati and country press. There were some queerly named papers in Indiana for a while, but we believe they are all dead. There was a “ June Bug,” in Orange county, and a “ Broad Axe of Freedom and Grubbing Hoe of Truth,” in Richmond. Tiie Springs. —The Richmond Dis patch tells a good anecdote which shows the different estimate placed upon sul phur water, (or upon the human under standing,) by different persons! A wag gish proprietor of one of the popular re sorts, on seeing a fourth or fifth stage drive up to his door, crowded with pas i sengers, remarked, sub rosa, to a compan ion, “ Here comes another stage load of fools to poison themselves with sulphur water !” Oh horrible! The next moment he was all smiles and graces, ush ering in the “ fools ” to the abode of “ health and pleasure.” “ Johnny, does you love me ?” “Well, Susy, I does.” “ llow do you know you love me 2” “ Kase Susy, whenever I look at you, my heart jumps up and knocks against my stumick so hard that I dont have an appetite for a week afterwards.” ill flliif ® We saw it stated the other day that Amherst college, as a mark of its appreciation of Mr. Sumner, had confer red upon him the degree of “L. L. D.” M e tried to make out the signification of the compliment, in its connection with the Massachusetts Senator’s career in Congress but we coul(Tnt come at it.— The Richmond Dispatch informs us that it means “ Lammed Like the D 1.” Extraordinary Imposture exploded.! AN IMPORTANT QUESTION SETTLED ! Innumerable efforts have been made by mathematicians to square the circle. It is now admitted by rational men that no such thing is possible. A question of the same sort, near’y, is often propounded which, for the moment, may puzzle a man of slow wit, but which is eventually seen to be incapable of solution, likewise. It is this: M hat would be the consequence of an irresistible body coming in contact with an immovable one ? Very little con sideration is required to enable ono to dis cern that this is a contradiction in terms. The closest approximation to a categorical answer that we ever heard of lias been given by an eminent pathologist, Profes sor Holloway, who has proved beyond all question that his extraordinary Pills and Ointment are irresistible in their ef fects on diseases which, under every other treatment, were absolutely immovable. This Is no empty boast. It is true. AVe court-disproof. Ilis medicines, wo say, are the greatest remedial agents that sci entific genius ever invented. “Pshaw,” some contemptible professional standing or disappointed charlatan may exclaim, “what is it all but quackery!” Ignorant or unthinking people may be foULil to re echo the charge. But stop, frieuds. You do not bear in mind that this very cry of “ quack-quack-quackery,” which is as fre quently raised against the true thing as false, savors itself of the greatest quack ery. Besides, an imposition cannot last forever. If Holloway's Medicines are an imposture, they are the most gigantic one that over darkened civilization. If they are an imposture, they have effected more good to humanity than thousands of osten tatiously benevolent verities. If they are an imposture, no other imposture has ever originated like them, for they are the re sult of the most profound physiological in vestigation and pathological skill. If they arc an imposture, then it is an imposture which the world has been thankful for. The most eminent medical men of the ago have testified to their unparalleled effects as sanative agents. Princes and potentates have borne voluntary testimony to their virtues. Nobles of nature’s making (as well as nobles of man’s making) have alike acknowledged in terms of deserved eulogy their extraordinary powers. There is scarcely a newspaper throughout the world which has not willingly made itself the medium of communicating to the public the astounding cures which these medi cines have effected. In our country they have attained to a patronage, the extent of which is perhaps without precedent when the comparatively brief period of their in troduction is taken into account. Profes sor Holloway can produce almost count less numbers of written acknowledgments (from every clime and in every language) of their efficacy, forwarded to him unasked. Who then is the impostor? Let us state a few facts of greater interest. It is of paramount importance to pre serve the blood in a healthy condition, be cause the blood is the vital fluid, that is, the principle of life, and when it is affect ed, the whole organization is affected like wise. Holloway’s Pills clear the blood of all impurities and induce a healthy con dition of body. His Ointment acts in har mony with the Pills, when it is applied to external sores. Both invariably lead to this result. Mens sana in cor pore sano, “ a sound mind in a sound body.”—Sun day Courier. MARRIED, In Cass county, on Thursday evening, 14th inst. by Rev.

This is to certify that I am well acquain ted with a man fifty years of age, for many years a resident of this city, who has been at times ex tremely ill, but could not tell from what cause, unless it was worms. lie told his attending physician his suspicions, but the physician at once ridiculed the idea, aud refused to attend him any longer. His son then mentioned Dr. M’- Lane’s Vermifuge, aud asked him if he would take it; his reply was—l must take something to get relief or die. They at once procured a bottle of Dr. M’Laxk’s Celebrated Vermifuge, aud he took half atone dose. The result was, he passed upwards of three quarts of worms at ouce, cut up iu every form. He got well immediately and is now enjoying most excellent health ; and like the good Samar itan of old, is endeavoring to relieve his unfortu nate neighbors. He makes it his business to hunt up and select all cases similar to his own, that may be given over by regular physicians, and in duces them to try Dr. M’Lane’s Vermifuge. So far he has induced more than twenty persons to take the Vermifuge, and in every case with the most happy result. He is well satisfied that Dr. M’Lane’s Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming Bros, of Pittsburg, is far superior to any other known remedy, and that if more generally known would not fail to save many valuable lives. For further particulars inquire ofMrs. Hardie, 1241-2 Cannon Street, New York City. Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR. M‘LANE’S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manufactured by FLEMING BROS, of Pitts burg, Pa. .All other Vermifuges in compari son are worthless. l)r.

Numerous erasive preparations have been offer ed to the public, but there are serious objections to all of them. Some merely drive the objection able substance from the surface into the cloth, and it soon appears again ; others extract it but at the same time either destroy the texture or the color. None of them propose to remove Paint or Var nish after they nave had time to become thorough ly dry. This preparation is war ranted not to af fect the color of anything which will bear wash ing in soap and water, and will remove old Paint, Varnish and Turpentine as well as fresh.

One v l ume, 12 mo., Muslin, Price $1.25. AMERICAN Novelists have of late confined themselves mainly to sketches of social and domestic life. They have aimed to produce minia tures and cabinet pieces rather than historical pic tures. The author of Saratoga has chosen a large canvas, and has wrought with a bolder hand. By placing the scene of his story on what was then the verge of civilization, and portraying characters trained In all the exigencies of border life, he has constructed a narative full of startling incident and thrilling adventure, without viola ting the probabilities of history. The bold, cau tious woodsman, Sandy Brigham, the watchful, taciturn Indian, Cutfoot, aiul the wily, revengeful half-breed, Joe, will compare favorably with the best deliniations in the “ Leatherstodcing Tales” of the great American Novelist. Since Cooper put forth his earlier and better novels, no Ameri can author has written a work of’this class pos sessing merits equal to this tale of life on the bor ders. The title of this book gives us to know at once the nature of its contents. It abounds in inci dents of an exciting character.

SHEPHERD A FITZPATRICK. April 25. 17 STONE MOUNTAIN IIOUSIL THE Proprietors of this large and did new Brick Building, which has |ijjj just been fitted up in elegant style, with entire new Furniture, would respectfully inform the Public that they have at length completed and opened it for the accommodation of perma nent and transient Boarders. They have made every effort to arrange it in such a manner as to render their guests com fortable. And having had a long experience, they do not intend to be excelled by any land lord. The Furniture, as well as the house, is perfect ly new. Those, acquainted with the topography of Georgia, know that within her limits exist some of the most sublime and n ignificent works of Nature, and Stone Mouutui justly ranks as oue of the number. Southerners who wish to spend their summers at the South, instead of going North, will find tlie climate bracing, and the water pure as the purest. The climate is not surpassed. The Proprietors flatter themselves that those who call once, will be well-enough satisfied to call again. Z-0” Georgia Railroad Train} stop for Supper at this House. ALEXANDER A CLARKE, Proprietors.
