4 THE WEEKLY (Chronicle ani» Sentinel. Normal Schools. For the subjoined very interesting accoun t of the origin and progress of Normal Schools we are indebted to an intelligent correspondent of the Newark Advertiser. Normal Schools—Origin and Spread.— In sketching briefly the history of Normal Schools, I shall not deem it necessary to refer to the various authorities from which my state ments are drawn, remarking only that they are of the most reliable character. The first Teacher’s Seminary of which there is any account is that opened by Franke, the foun der of the celebrated Orphan-House at Halle, as early as the year 1704. Another was estab lished at Stettin, Pomerania in 1735. These institutions were productive of great good in their sphere, and served asprecursors of better times which were not fully to appear until the dawn ofa new century In an account of the schools of Prussia, it is stated that as the standard of education rose un der the efforts of Frederic the 2d at the close ol his long wars, the value of Normal schools be came apparent. “Teaching was found to be an art of great difficulty, only to be acquired by long practice, and special preparation. These important and rapid improvements were confined to the instruction of the higher classes of society, till the beginning 01 the nineteenth century, when Pestalozzi began his great work in Switzerland. He was the first to raise teaching to an art based on a knowledge of hu man nature.” His great invention was pre vented from perishing at his death, being per petuated by Fellenberg, and also being trans planted in several other parts of Europe. In 1809 Fellenberg organized his Normal school, and 42 teachers of the canton of Berne came together and received gratuitous instruction in the art of teaching. So great was their zeal, that on finding the establishment was not large enough to receive them, they were contented to lodge in tents. Even the Emperor of Russia, a few years afterward sent several pupils to Fellenbergh with a view to introdu cing a better system of instruction among his people. Afterwards a Normal school was es tablished at St. Petersbugh. The educational reform in Prussia property commenced with the establishment of Normal Schools. A lead ing principle of the system adopted was that “extensive knowledge, sound sense, and a profound acquaintance with human nature, must be combined in the teacher. His habits most be formed by pratice, and experience must give him a certain tact without which the best endeavors will be useless. So powerfully has this system commended itself to all enlight ened men. that not enly have these seminaries for teachers been constantly increasing within the last ten years in Prussia in Saxony and in the west and southwest of Germany; but most of the enlighted governments of Europe have followed the example. Out of Prussia, the plan was first adopted in Holland. The celebrated Normal school of Mr. Trinsen, was established at Haarlem in 1816 ; and it is now acknowledged by all, that common school education has been reformed and immeasurably advanced throughout that enlightened country, by the influence of that school. In 1833 Normal schools were adopted in France, as one ol the main features in the great governmental measure in behalf of com mon schools. Mr. Mann mentions the inter esting fact that a Normal school was establish ed at Versailles, occupying the very site and some of the buildings that were the dog-kennals of Louis XIV. and his royal successors! Scotland was not slow to discover the advan tages of the preparation of teachers. That country has one such school at Edinburgh and one at Glasgow, besides the Madras college at St. Andrews, which exercises the double func ' tion of giving a classical education and prepar ing teachers for schools. In Ireland the national Board of Education has established an excellent and extensive Nor mal School at Dublin, one thousand pounds having been given to the object by Lord Mor peth In England, several Normal Schools have sprung up under the auspices of private indi viduals and societies, the government having limited its efforts to the bestowmentof aid upon the institutions thus established. In Belgium three Normal Schools were es tablished in 1843. In regard to asyatern of means specifically de signed to qualify teachers for common schools, New York made earlier movements than any other state on this side of the Atlantic. In 1835 a teachers’ department was engrafted up on one academy in each of the eight senatorial districtsuf that state- The sum of SSOO was given to each of these academies for the pur ch:isc of apparatus and a library, and also the further sum ofs4ooto pay the salary of ,an in structor. In 1840 the State Normal School was established at Albany. In 1838, Mr. Edmund Dwight, of Boston, of ■fered to the Educational Board of Massachu setts the sum of SIO,OOO, to be expended in the qualification of teachers of Common Schools, provide 1 the state would devote an equal sum to the ;ie purpose. His proposition was ac cepted. and in the course of a few years three Normal Schools were established in that state. Several other states of our Union have had this subject under consideration, but we do not learn that any ofthem have as yet consummated their measures so far us to have Normal Schools in actual operation. P. An Eaby Role for Farmers. —A correspon dent of the National Intelligencer thus corrects a paragraph which is going the rounds of the press and which we copied, giving the mode of computing the English quotations for a quar ter of wheat into American measurement and currency: “ The ‘quarter of wheat' is one-fourth of a ton. (2.240 pounds,) or 560 pounds. The standard bushel of wheat, is not the ‘Winches ter’ bushel, but one-eighth 0f560. or 70 pounds. Now, in our conn'ry, the bushel ofwheat is 60 pounds: therefore, divide 560 by 60, and the result of nine and one-third bushels, will be the equivalent according to our standard, for the English ‘quarter of wheat.' But, to make this available to the farmer, let him ‘divide’ the price per'quarter' in sterling shillings by nine, (instead of eight.) and multiply the quotient by twenty-four, for the price per bushel (Ameri can) in cents. Thus, at 54 shillings per quar ter. 54 divided by9being 6, which multiplied by 24, gives $1 44 per bushel." Sagacity of a Greyhound and Pointer.— A gentleman in the county of Sterling kept a greyhound and a pointer, and being fond of coursing, the pointer was accustomed to find the hares, and the greyhound to catch them. When the season was over, it was found that the dogs were in the habit of going out by themselves, and killing the hares for their amusement. To prevent this, a large iron ring was fastened to the pointer’s neck by a leather collar, and hung down, so as to pre vent the dog from running or jumping over dikes, &c. The animals however continued to stroll out to the fields together, and one day the gentleman, suspecting all was no* right, resolved to watch them, and, to his surprise, found that the moment they were unobserved, the grey hound took up the iron ring in his mouth, and carrying it, they set otf to the hills, and began to search for hares as usual. They were fol lowed, and it was observed (hat whenever the pointer scented the hare the ring was dropped, and the greyhound stood ready to pounce up on poor puss the moment the other drove her forth, but that he uniformly returned to assist his companion when he had accomplished his object. The Man who hat! the Small Pox In ternally'. The following case of hypochondria has ne ver appeared in print. It occurred in the pri vate practice of Dr. Todd, the first physician to the Retreat of the Insane, in Martford, Con necticut : The subject of it was a robust, hard- labor ing man. by trade a mason. He had. as he be lieved, been exposed to tho contagion of the small pox. Under the impression that a spare diet would essentially mitigate the virulence of the disease, from a full diet, in which animal food formed a large share, he restricted himself to one entirely vegetable, and this in so limited a quantity as was hardly sufficient to sustain life. This change in his mode of living, com bined with the depressing influence of fear, from anticipation of a fatal and loathsome dis ease. soon reduced his once athletic frame, and involved him in all the horrors of hypochon dria. The time soon arrived when, according to his calculations, the small pox ought to make ite appearance, but not a pock or pimple could he find upon himself. A new cause of appre hension now took entire possession of his mind. viz.: that he had the disease internally, and that it was preying upon and destroying his system. Under this impression, he consult ed a physician, who, after listening to the his tory of his ca<e, and making a careful exami nation, assured him that his apprehensions were entirely groundless, and existed only in his imagination. This conclusion was far from being satisfac tory to the hypochondriac. He was not thus easily to be reasoned out of his senses. The physician was dismissed as one wanting in skill to discover and understand the nature of his complaint A second and third was called, and both concurred in the decision of the first one. But the patient, as is common in such cases, would sooner believe the whole frater nity at fault than himself. The subject of men tal hallucination rejected all medical advice, confined himselt to his room, and resigned him self io his fate. Iu the meantime, his robust iorm had become attenuated almost to skin and bones. His friends now became seriously at condition. The reputation of Dr. Todd then residing at Farmington, al though iu early life, had spread into the neigh boring towns, and his peculiar talent for the management of mental diseases, which so emi nently qualified him to take charge of the in feX’Z** 1 ' “ uraerous ‘“Stances, been mam- A brother of the patientcalled on Dr. Todd, confiding T* “’" red huu lhst h,s confidence in the ucil | t¥ waj tl > oe . and lhal lt * ,lh " u, . hls koowledse that he was con *?‘". d ~ A • oon ‘nance iby which the doctorsbonld happen to pa«,he hon« of the patient, and be called in a. if hr accident The next day Dr Todd w„ wrXn o hu. nsuai rapd rat. through the street where tho patient lived :he was haded h v lt „, mewen ger, and tn a tone of voice overheard bv the sick person, requested to cafi and we his bro ther. who had for some time suffered from ill hex?ih. The doctor alighted, and was soon in troduced to the pattern, but was received with- I oat any recognition or act of civility, nor even raising fits even to look at him ; nor could he, by any kind of attention or inquiries, elicit a word from hissullea and despairing patient. With a tact peculiar to himself, the doctor commenced a very minute aud careful exami nation of the pauenl—first looking carefully into his ears. his none, and his eyes; then ruing hastily from hieaeat.be commenced walking the room, as if m tbs utmost aMomahment. »ad could hardly credit his senses, at the same time, ejaculating in an under tone: "Is it possible ? Who could ever have thought it 1 Can it be ?” Then resuming his place bv the side of the patient, he went through an examination still more minute. Again leaving his seat, he con tinued his soliloquy: “Itis a fact! There can be no mistake— and yet the like is not to be found in the records of medicine.” By this time the patient’s attention was aroused, and breaking through his taciturnity, he exclaimed : “ What! what! what is it, Dr. Todd ? ’ “ What ?” was the reply. ‘‘Sure enough. “ Why, sir, something very singular in your case: but as I am not under any obligations to you for the discovery. I will keep it to mysell. More than that, it is as much as a physician’s reputation is worth even to advance such an opinion.’* “ Doctor,’’said the patient, “ 1 must know it. I will do any thing in my poweryou ask of me, if you will only tell me.” “ Well, sir,” replied the doctor. “ if I should tell you, it must ever be a profound secret be tween ourselyes.” To this the patient readily assented. “ Then, sir.” continued the doctor, "you must know that you have the smallpox inter nally." In an instant, with all the strength he could command, the patient sprang from his chair, and seizing the doctor by the hand, he ex claimed : “ You are the doctor for me ! This is just what I have been telling the doctors, but not one of them would believe a word of it. Now, is there any remedy in such a case? Is there any hope for me ?” “ I think there is,” said the doctor. “ But mark me, every thing depends upon closely adhering to my directions. There are three ways by which this disease may be eradicated —one is by insensible perspiration; another by internal remedies ; and the third by bring ing it out upon the surface, in the form of an eruption.” ‘‘Let it be the last one,” was the quick re sponse of the patient. ‘‘ Let me have ocular proof of the fact, and I shall be satisfied.” The patient was ordered to resume a course of nutritious diet, by which he rapidly regain ed health and strength, at the same time taking some harmless medical preparation, which the doctor assured him would, in due season, bring forth the eruption. When the specified time arrived the doctor directed the housekeeper to strew the patient’s bed with cowhage, an arti cle known to most persons, for producing an eruption, accompanied withan intolerable itch ing when applied to the skin. His bed was thus prepared on the night in which the doc tor’s skill was to be tested, and the patient re tired to rest. He had not been loug in bed, when, to his great satisfaction the itching com menced; but wishing to be fully assured that all was right, he immediately called for alight, and found the surface of his body an entire blotch. Satisfied with the proof, he endured the suffering patiently until morning. Soon after he resumed his business, and was never troubled again with the small-pox internally.— Hartford Chronicle. The Bowdoln Family. Mr. Winthrop, in his address before the Maine Historical Society, of which the Boston Traveller has a report, gives the following ac count of the first establishment of the Bow <ioin family in this country. Mr. Winthrop’s mother, Elizabeth Temple, was the adopted daughter of her uncle, Gov. Bowdoin, the fa ther of James Bowdoin, the founder of Bow doin College, at which the address was deliv ered : I hold in my hand an original manuscript in the French language, which being interpreted, is as follows: “To his Excellency the Govcrnor-in-Chief of New England, humbly prays Pierre Baudouin, say ing : That, having beeu obliged, by the rigors which were exercised towards the Protestants in France, to depart thence with his family, and having sought re fuge in the realm of Ireland, at the city of Dublin, to which place it pleased the Receivers of his Majes ty’s Customs to admit him, your petitioner was em ployed in one of the bureaus; but afterwards there being a change of officers he was left without any employment. This was what caused the petitioner and his family, to the number of six persons, to with draw into this territory, in the town of Casco, and province of Maine; and, seeing that there are many lands which are not occupied, and particularly those which are situated at the point of Barbary Creek, may it please your Excellency to decreethat there maybe assigned tn your petitioner about one hundred acres, to the end that he may have the means of sup porting his family. And he will continue to pray God for the health and prosperity of your Excellen cy. PIERRE BAUDOUIN.” Such was the first introduction into New En gland of a name which was destined to be con nected with not a few of the most important events in its subsequent history, and which is now indissolubly associated with more than one of its most cherished institutions of education, literature and science. Driven out from his home and native land by the fury of that religious persecution for which Louis XIV. gave the signal by the revocation of the edict of Nantz; disappointed in his at tempt to secure the means of an humble sup port in Ireland, whither he had at first fled, Pierre Baudouin, in the summer of 1687, pre sents himself a suppliant to Sir Edmund An dros, then Governor-in chief of New England, for a hundred acres of unoccupied land at the point ol Barbary Creek, in Casso Bay, in the province of Maine, that he may earn bread for himself and his family by the sweat of his brow. He was one of that noble set of Huguenots of which John Calvin may be regarded as the great founder and exemplar ; of which Gas pard de Coligny, the generous and gallant Ad miral, who “ filled the kingdom of France with the glory and terror of his name for the space of twelve years,” was one of the most devoted disciples, and one of the most lamented martyrs, and which has furnished to our own land blood every way worthy of being mingled wi»h the best that has ever flowed in the veins either of Southern cavalier or Northern puritan. He was of that same noble stock which gave three Presidents out of nine to the old Con gress of the Confederation ; which gave her Laurenses and Marions, her Hilgers and Man igaults, her Prioleaus and Gaillards and Le gares to South Carolina ; which gave her Jays io New York, her Boudiuots to New Jersey, her Brimmers, her Dexters, and her Peter Fa neuil, with the Cradle of Libtrty, to Massa chusetts. He came from the famous town of Rochelle which was for so many years the very strong hold and rallying point of Protestantism in Prance, and which in 1629 held out so long and heroically against the siege which Richlieu himself thought it no shame to conduct in per son. He is said te have been r physician by pro fession. The mere internal evidence of the paper which I have produced, though the idi om may not be altogether of the latest Parisian, shows him to have been a man of education ; while, without insisting on tracing back his pedigree, as others have, either to Ba'dwin, Count of Flanders in 862, or te Baldwin the chivalrous King of Jerusalem in 1143, both of whom, it seems, spelled their names precisely as lie did. there is ample testimony that he was a man both of family and fortune'in his own land. ** I am the eldest descendant,” wrote James Bowdoin, the patron oi the College in whose precincts we are assembled. •• from one of those unfortunate families which was obliged to fly their native country on account of reli gion : a family which, as I understand, lived in affluence, perhaps elegance, upon a hand some estate in the neighborhood of Rochelle, which, at that time, (1685) yielded the conside rable income of seven hundred Louis d'ors per annum.'* This estate was, of course, irrecoverably for feited by his flight, and, at the end of two years of painful and perilous adventure, he landed upon the shores of New England with no other wealth but a wife and four children, and the freedom to worship God after the dictates of his own conscience. His petition, which has no date of its own, but which is endorsed 2d August. 1687, was favorably received by Sir Edmund Andros, and the Public Records in the State Department of Massachusetts contain a warrant signed by Sir Edmund and directed to Mr. Richard Cle ments, Deputy Surveyor, authorizing and re quiring him to lay out one hundred acres of vacant land in Casco Bay for Pierre Bowdoin, in such place as he should be directed by Ed ward Ting, Esq., one of his Majesty’s Coun cil. The warrant bears date October 8, 1687. This land was laid out on what is now the high road fr >m Portland to Vaughan’s Bridge, a few rods northerly of the house now or late of Hon. Nicholas Emery. A solitary apple tree and a few rocks, which apparently form ed die curbing of a well, were all that remain ed about twenty years ago to mark the site of the original dwelling place of the Bowdoins in America. I know not whether even these could now be found. In this original dwelling place, however, P’erre Bowdoin and his family remained only about two years and a half. ’ He had proba bly heard of the successful establishment in Boston, a year or two previously, of a Protest ant church, by some of his fellow-fugiuves from France. He is likely to have been still more strongly prompted to an early abandon mentof his residence by its extreme exposure to the hostile incursions and depredations of the French and Indians, who were leagued to gether at this time in an attempt to break up the British settlements on this part of the North American continent. And most narrowly and most providentially did he escape this peril.— On the 17th of May. 1690. the fort at Casco was attacked and destroyed, and a general massacre of the settlers was perpetrated by the Indians. On the 16th. just twenty-four hours previously, Pierre Bowdoin and his faint y had plucked up their stakes and departed for Bos ton. A race which had survived the massacre of St. Bartholomew’s and the siege of Rochelle was not destined to perish thus ignobly in the wilderness. DR.

THE ASTONISHING success which basal tended the use of this invaluable medicine for Epileptic Fits, (or falling sickness,) Spasms, Cramps, Convulsions, renders it the most valuable medi cine ever discovered. In fact, as a remedy for the above diseases it stands unrivalled and alone. There is no other reliable remedy. It has been said that Epilepsy is incurable. This, however, is not the fact. Dr. Hart's Vegetable Extract has and is constantly curing this distressing complaint, as the fbllowmgtes timony leceived from Physicians and others will show ; Judge Rundall, 156 Henry-st., New York, having used the Vegetable Extract successfully in hie family, highly recommends it to all persons who are afflicted with Fits. Mr. Stephen E. Pratt, corner ofSixth Avenue and Twenty-sixth-st., New York, states that Mr. Chas. H. Boughton, a member of his family, has been so severely afflicted with Epileptic Fits for many years, that he was obliged to relinquish his business. Hav ing used Dr. Hart’s Vegetable Extract (says Mr. Pratt) he was soon restored to perfect health, and left this city for the State of Ohio to resume his business. Rev. Mr. Smith, Rector of St. Peters Church, Spots wood, New Jersey, who has been afflicted with Epi leptic. Fits for more than forty years, slates that he has used Dr. Hart’s Vegetable Extract and his health has been so much improved that be hopes by Divine blessing, to have no more Fits. EPILEPTIC FITS.

OWING to the almost unparalleled Batisfaction which their GINS have given, particularly those of Laet year, the subscribers are induced to cal (he attention of the planters of Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina to their factory in newton county, and request a continuance of their patronage. No better guarantee of the excellence of their Gms is needed than their wide circulation, and the expressed satisfaction of gome of the most experienced and ex tensive planters and Cotton buyers of Georgia. As to the workmanship, material and performance of their Gins, they are willing to back many of their purchasers in saying that there are none superior in the United States. Their Gins are on the improved plan, possessing several essential improvements this year over those of the last season. Every exertion is made by expe rienced and skillful mechanics to render them conve nient and durable. Their travelling agents, who will be constantly passing through the various sections of the country, are authorized to sell on the most accom modating terms. The Gins will be delivered at the purchaser s resi dence free of charge, and its performance warranted, if the directions which accompany each Gin are fol lowed.

THE SUBSCRIBER would inform the Plant ers of Georgia, that he continues to manufac ture COTTON GINS on his improved plan, at his Factory in Morgan county. His Gins are well known and universaily’approved throughout Georgia, and a portion of South Carolina. They are made of the best materials, and no expense will be spared to make them durable and convenient. The very large sales be has made for the last few years is sufficient gua rantee of the excellence of his work. Hie Gins will be sold on the most liberal terms, and delivered at the purchasers’ residence, and warranted to perform well, if used according to directions. He is also manufacturing PATENT THRESHINGMACHINES, on a plan entirely new in the Southern country, and far superior to any now in use; they will do about three times the work of the common Thresher, and thresh the straw much cleaner. They are run with common Gin Gearing, or with horse power, for threshing in the field. With good attention, they will thresh 20 bushels ofWheat or 25 bushels of Oats per hour, and are not subject to get out of repair.

STILL IMPROVING! WE STILL CONTINUE to manufature Cotton Gio>of the very finest order. For sev eral years past we have been able to sell all the fine Friction Roller Gins at $3 per saw, which we could make, without the aid of a travelling agent. We have made the gins, and the gins, or rather the cot ton ginned by them, have sold others as fast as we could make them. We have not been content in be ing able to sell, but it has been our aim to continue to improve. Each year the demand has increased, and as our fine gins have been used, we think we can af firm the planter has realized increased profits. 1( iias been truly said that the finest article of cotton ever offered in the Savannah market has been raised Hancock county. The crops of several individ uals have been esteemed of this character. Some have had offers for their entire crop, to be grown, at the highest prices, and in every instance our gins have been used to produce this fine article. When cotton is low j cent, per lb. in price tells in a moderate crop. We think we can safely affirm that in every instances where planters have managed their crops neatly and ginned on our gins, they have received the very highest market value —in many instances J cent, over the highest market price. It has been said by some persons, interested in essening the character of our gins, that they do not stand as high in Hancock county as they have done. We should think this a great mistake, from the fact of an increased demand in the county. We know many opposed buying at first on account of the price, but we are assured from the increased sale and from gratuitous commendations of our gins, that the far mers are beginning to view it good economy to buy of us. We are also seldom able to sell a common gin, which we make as low as other gin-makers. Our last year’s gins have given even greater satisfaction than any we have ever made before. We will deliver to purchasers, at $3 per saw, our fine Friction-Roller Gins; or common kind from $2 to $2.50, as in qual ity. All communications will be immediately an swered. G. T. OGLEBY & BROTHER. Sparta, April 3d, 1848. CERTIFICATES- Sparta, April 3d, 1848.—We have bought and used the fine Friction-Roller Gins made by G. T. Ogleby & Brother. His gins possess great durabil ity ; the workmanship is of the very finest order. The cotton ginned by them, as to quality, has met our most sanguine expectations, and has in every instance come up to what he has promised. As we have been enabled to realize prices higher than from common gins, we think it is economy to buy his fine gins. Thos, M. Turner, John T. Berry, Charles R. Knowles, Wilson Bird, John P.

S3OOO REWARD !! ! REUBEN RICH’S PATENT CENTER VENT WVfTJSJR IWJJIJEJ/S. FOR FACTORIES, SAW AND GRIST MILLS, COTTON GINS, AND EVERY other purpose to which a Water Wheel can be applied. (Made entirely of Iron, with Iron p p AGAINST TURBINE. HOTCHKISS AND ALL OTHER WHEELS. IWILL GIVE SSOO reward to any person who will produce a patent WATER. WHEEL that will do na much business with the same quantity of water under any given head, from three to thirty feet. I will give SSOO to any person who will produce a Breast Wheel under a head of eight feet or less, that shall equal it in power and saving of water. I will give the same amount to any one who will produce an overshot or undershot, that will Inst with my Wheel, and not cost more money courier or later; or I will give the same reward to any man who will produce an overshot, undershot, or Breast Wheel, that, will run as steady as my Wheel; or, I will give SSOO to any one who will produce a Wheel or any sort or kind, patented or no’, that will combine, to the same extent, cheapness, durability, power, speed or simplicity, so easily applied in all situations, and so universally applicable to all pur poses and every location. Or, I will give SSOO to any one who will produce a Hotchkiss Wheel that does not consume fifty percent more water to do the same Sawing or Grinding. This Wheel (one of the greatest inventions of the age!) combines every quality that is desired in a Wa ter Wheel. It is adapted to every head and fill, from two feet to any height,—is equal, in economy of water, to any Breast or Over-shot Wheel, under a high head es water, and superior under a low nr medium head, —is more durable, less likely to get out of order,—and is infinitely cheaper. It is also incomparably more steady in its motion, — sufficient ly so. indeed, as to require no Governor, even with Cotton Factories making the finest fabrics! It has many other advantages over the Breast and Over-shot Wheel. The first is in being so compact that it can be applied where there is not room for these Wheels, the largest size being but 5 feet in di ameter. The second is, that being much quicker in its motion, the intermediate gearing required in the Over-shot to get up speed, is with this Wheel wholly dispensed with. Third, that the higher the head, the smaller the Wheel. Under a head of 35 feet a Wheel 16 inches diameter, venting 18 inches of water, is equal to a power of 15 Horses. It is superior to the Tub or Flutter Wheel, for it does not require more than one fourth to one third the water, and is more durable, and not much if any more expensive. It is likewise superior to any of the Re-action Wheels, now in use in the South, for it keeps in or der a much greater length of lime, and uses not more than about one half the water! It is superior to Wooden Wheelsof all kinds; runs under back water, and secures the entire head and fall. For Colton Gins it is the only Wheel; with a small quantity of water, and under any head, the Gin can be driven. (It is well known that a Water Gin will turn out better Cotton and more of it in a day.) On tide water, these Wheels can be run 12 to 18 hours out of 24, and cost but little, compared with any other. In level countries they can be used where there is a ood supply of water, and a head of onl v 2 or 3 feet; LAFAYETTE BURR MILL STONE MANUFACTU RING COMPANY, SAVANNAH, GA.

Sands —Gentlemen—ln the year 1842 I was attacked with a 1 —__z cancer in my neck, which soon extended its ravages over the side of my face, eating * > the flesh, and leaving the cords of my neck bare, discharging very freely, causing in- ' ' ’jli'i l tense pain and suffering, depriving me of rest at night and comfort by day, destroying my appetite, and reducing me almost to the gates of death. J was attended bv the ' uF/Th'J first P”y sic ‘anx in the state, who presenbed for me, and did all that skill and talent i could effect, but during all the time 1 continued to grow worse under their care. In I Z|l/TiJi the Spring of 1844 I chanced to hear of the cures performed by your Sarsaparilla, and n ZuiiJli;; determined to try it. I had not used over two bottles before I felt its effects on my B y stern most sensibly. My appetite was soon restored, my strength was increasing, 'J the discharge from the cancer decreased, and I soon began to perceive that the flesn I UPI Hl was healing. I continued its use according to directions, and also continued to grow /r better and better from day to day, until I have been fully and wholly cured by its use. fi‘ iZ It is now two years since I was cured, and I have remained perfectly well up to this day. I have delayed giving you this certificate, that I might ascertain whether the |llll k IH I disease would reappear ; but lam happy and most thankful to again repeat that the ii 1 cure is a perfect one, and effected wholly by the use of your Sarsaparilla. The scars . t ;;i J still remain; and all who know me, and many of the citizens of Stamford, can testify iFWuIPjH; to the severity of my case and my sufferings, and the health-restoring power of your I ’A Sarsaparilla.
