THE GAZETTE. Wednesday, November 19, 1873. The Southern Magazine. This delightful and entertaining mag azine for November is well up in its ta ble of contents to the preceding num bers. The Southern is one of the best magazines published, and certainly the most acceptable of any to southern read ers. Its literary matter is chaste and el egant in style, and a great portion being devoted to historical events of the late War, makeß it peculiarly attractive. The publishers announce in this number that an arrangement has been entered into with the Southern Historical Society by which the Southern Magazine becomes the official organ of the Society. This makes the magazine particularly desira ble to southerners, and but few southern readers will like to be without it. Price $4.50 a year, with a large and beautiful steel engraving, “The Burial of Latane.” The editor of the Gazette is the au thorised agent for receiving and forward ing subscriptions for this valuable work. Only Thirty Days.— The time draws near for the great distribution of pres ents to the patrons of that excellent De mocratic journal, the Atlanta Constitu tion. Only some 30 days remain before the time allowed for subscribers to avail themselves of the rare chance to obtain valuable presents. Somebody is going to be several thousand dollars better off, and that soon—not a bad pill to swallow in hard times. The proprietors of the Constitution publish that they have about all their presents on exhibition, includ ing two splendid jianos, costing SSOO each. GRANGERS’ MASS CONVENTION. E. Taylor, Secretary of the State Grange, announce that a mass meeting of Patrons of Husbandry in the Cotton States will be held in Atlanta on the 25th instant, to devise some measures looking to self-protection. Papers friend ly to the Order are requested to give curreney to the notice. The Gen’l R. E. Lee Monument. —The colossal monument to the memory of General Lee, which is rapidly being con structed under the direction and skill of Prof. Volentine, will, when completed, be the greatest triumph of art and me chanical skill ever produced in this coun try. The structure will be surmounted by a reclining figure of Gen’l Lee, en veloped in his military cloak. The form will be finely carved in marble, and the expression of countenance rendered with life-like correctness. In order to com plete this grand monument at the earli est possible day, the executive commit tee of the Lee Memorial Association, of Lexington, Ya., which is composed of such distinguished men as Gen’l Pendle ton, Gen’l Terry, Hon. Wm. McLaugh lin, Col. Preston Johnston, Col. Jas. K. Edmondson, Chas. Davidson, and others, have, by permission, authorised the pub lication and sale of a perfect, life-size steel engraved portrait of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston -the proceeds of its sale to be applied in furtherance of the object of this association, namely: to the erec tion of a monument to the memory of Gen. R. E. Lee, at the Washington and Lee University, Lexington, Ya. The por trait will be sold only by subscription, through regular authorised agents, and every subscriber will receive a certificate signed by the secretary and chairman of the Lee Memorial Association. We com mend this portrait to the public, and hope some good energetic man will secure the agency in this section in order to help on the good work. Messrs. W. W. Bost wick & Cos., Nos. 177 and 179 West Fourth st., Cincinnati, Ohio, have been constituted and appointed General Man agers of Agencies, and any communica tions addressed to them, for circulars, terms, and certificates, will receive prompt attention. For a source of supply of dialogues, etc., you will find just what you wish, besides a quantity of instruct ive asd entertaining matter in that nov elty apong young people’s publications, the “Young Folks’ Rural.” The best way, if you have not seen it. is to procure a number as a sample—which will be sent post-paid for ten cents, for such pur gose— -and after a look at its sixteen road, bright pages, you will take it the coming year. It is $1.50 a year. Pub lished by H. N. F. Lewis, of Chicago, who is also pulisher of the Western Ru ral. The December number of Demorest’s .Monthly Magazine is sparkling with hol iday material, holiday fashions, holiday stories, household matters for the holi days, holiday poems, etc. But the most attractive of its holiday features is the offer of the oil chromo, “The Old Oaken Bucket ” to each subscriber as a holiday present. “The Old Oaken Bucket” is 17 x 26 inches in size—retailed at sls, and the publishers say the best and most popular chromo ever published—and yet is presented free to each $3 yearly sub scriber for 1874. Address, W. Jennings Demorest, 838 Broadway, New York. Demorest’s Young America for Decern - ber is full of Christmas novelties, -with other entertaining features for the juve niles. Some rare attractions are prom ised for the New Year, among which a chromo, and series of cartoons illustrat ing the evils of intemperance, with sketches by Dr. Deems. Young Ameri ca is to be offered at $1 hereafter, with an oil chromo to each subscriber as a premium. JEFF. DAVIS A ED, THE UNIVERSITY. A writer in the Columbus Sun concurs in the suggestion that ex-President Da vis would be the proper man to' succeed Dr. Iftpscomb as Chancelor of the Uni versity of Georgia. It will be remem bered that at the last meeting of the Trustees Chancellor Lipscomb announ ced his intention to retire from the posi tion which he has filled with such mar ked ability for the past ten or twelve years. It is understood that he will re main at his post until next commence ment, when he will send in his formal resignation. His retiracy from a posi tion he has filled so long and so accepta bly to himself and profitably to the hun dreds of young men who have graduated at the University will be accompanied with serious regrets. It is stated that our ex-President would accept the posi tion of Chancellor. If Dr Lipscomb re tires we know of no man in the South more worthy of secceeding him. Pos sessed of a national reputation, a schol ar and a statesman, the University of Georgia would become the foremost ed ucational institution of the South. As young men from all sections of the coun try flicked to Washington University un der the lamented General Lee, so would they flock to the University of Georgia under the administration of Hon. Jeffer son Davis. A few weeks ago some of the Admin istration papers asserted that the reason Grant did not call Congress together to legislate on the finances was because the President had no confidence in the finan cial ability of the Congress elect. There were many who did not understand this at the time, but since the recent displays of great financial ability by Grant him self, it is easy to conclude that Congress could not possibly possess any such tal ent. There are only two men in this country equal to it, and those two are Grant and Richardson. We don’t be lieve it ever would have occurred to Con gress to give us any such financial poli cy as that under which so many people are now going to ruin and so many la boring men are being thrown out of em ployment. It is a system just too cute for anybody but Grant and Richardson. The laborers and mechanics of the North, thrown out of work, or with wa ges greatly reduced, by the panic, are in an excellent frame of mind to view with complacency the back-salary steal, and their servant, the President, drawing an annual salary of $50,000 from the pub lic exchequer. We wouldn’t be a bit surprised to see somebody hurt by that little job yet. In a recent article on a fair in his lo cality, the editor of a Western paper says a brother editor took a valuable pre mium, but an unkind policeman made him put it right back where he took it from. “NOTICE - The notes and accounts dne Messrs.

The universal r ity of theflemand for the Pa,in Killer is a novel, interesting and surprising feature in the history of this medicine. The Pairr Killer is now regu larly sold in large and steadily increasing quanti ties, not only to general agents in every State and Territory of the Union, and every province in British America, but to Buenos Ayres, Brazil, Uruguay, Peru, Chili, and other South American States, to the Sandwich Islands, to Cuba, and other West India Islands, to England and Conti nental Europe, to Mozambique, Madagascar, Zanzibar and other African lands; to Australia, and Calcutta, Rangoon, and other places in In dia. It has also been sent to China,and we doubt if there is a foreign port or any inland city in Africa or Asia, which is frequented by Ameri can and European missionaries, travelers or ti a ders, into which the Pain Killer has not been introduced. The extent of its usefulness is another great fea ture o. this remarkable medicine. It is not only the best thing ever known, as everybody will confess, for Bruises, Cuts, Burns, Ac., but for Dys entery or Cholera, or any 3ort of bowel complaint it is a remedy unsurpassed for efficiency, and rapidity of action. In tbe great cities of British India and the West India Islands and other hot climates, it has become tbe standard medicine tor all 3uch complaints, as wel 1 as Dyspepsia, liver complaint and other kindred disorders. For Coughs and Colds, Canker, Asthma, and Rheu matic difficulties, it has been proved by the most abundant and convincing trials and testimony, to be an invaluable medicine. The proprietors are in possession of letters from persons of the highest character and responsibility, testifying in unequivocal terms to the cures effected and the satisfactory results produced, in an endless variety of cases by the use of this great medi cine. That the Pain Killer is deserving of all its proprietors claim for it is amply proved by the unparalleled popularity it. has attained. It is a sure and effective remedy. It is sold in almost every country in the world, and is becoming more and more popular every year. Its healing prop erties have been full}- tested all over the world, and it need only to be known to be prized.' Sold by all druggists. oc.B-lm BACON * KARR’S PIANOS. FIRST-CLASS I.TORSTMENTS.

Dr. Tatt’s Pills are composed of many ingre dients. Prominent among them are Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry, so united as to act together; the one through its admixture with other sub stances, purifying and purging, while the other is strengthening the system. Thus these Pills are at the same time a tonic and a cathartic, a desideratum long sought for by medical men, butnever before discovered. In uther words they do the work of two medicines and do i much better than any two we know of, for they remove nothing from the system but impurities, so that while they purge they also strengthen and hence cause no debility and are followed by no reaction Dr. Tutt’s Pills have a wonderful iuituence on the blood. They not only purify without weak ening it, but they remove all noxious particles from the cbyle before it is converted into fluid, and thus makes impure blood an utter impossi bility. As there is no debilitation, so there is no nausea or sickness attending the ope ration of this most excellent medicine, which never strains or tortures the digestive organs, b - t causes them to work in a perfectly natural manner; hence persons taking them do not be come pale and emaciated, but on the contrary, while all impurities are being removed, the combined action of the Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry puiifies and invigorates the body, and a robust state of health is the result of tbeir united action.

Bruce to Eureka Mills, there intersecting the road leading to El berton; thence along the Elberton road about three-fourths of a mile; thence in a southerly direction along an old road, until it intersects the Petersburg road, then going down the Petersbug road about three-quarters of a mile; then leaving the Petersburg road and running in a southerly direction along an old road which is on or near the dividing line be tween the tract of land known as Farm Hill, owned by A. C. Mathews and T. R White, and the tract of land owned by Thomas J. Heard, until the land of L. M Dadisman is reached, and thence along the line between said land of Dad isman and said Thomas J.

The Aldine, An Illustrated Monthly Journal, universally admitted to he the Handsomest Periodical in the World. A Representative and Oham pion of American Taste. NOT FOE SALE IN BOOESTOEES. THE ALDINE, while issued with all the reg ularity, has the temporary or timely in terest of ordinary periodicals. It is an elegant miscellany of pure, light and gracetul literature; and a collection of pictures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black and white. The real value and beauty of The Aldine will be most appreciated after being bound at the close of the year. The Aldine is a unique and original conception, alone and unapproached, absolutely without competition in price or character. The possessor of a complete volume cannot dupli cate the quantity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape or number of volumes foi ten times its eoet; and then there are the chromos, besides. AET DEPAETMENT—IB74. The illstrations of The Aldine have won a world-wide reputation, and in the art centres of Europe it is an admitted fact that its wood-cuts art examples of the highest perfection ever at tained. The common prejudice in favor of steel plates is rapidly yielding to a more educated and discriminating taste which recognises the advantages of superior artistic quality with greater facility of production. The wood-cuts of The Aldine possess all the delicicy and elab orate finish of the most costly steel plate, while affording a better rendering of the original. In addition, The Aldine will reproduce exam ples of the best foreign masters, selected with a view to the highest artistic success and greatest general interest. Thus the subscriber will, at a trifling cost, enjoy in his own home the refin ing influences of true art. The quarterly tinted plates for 1874 will be by Thos. Moran and J. D. Woodward. The Christmas issue for 1874 will contain spe cial designs, appropriate to the season. PEEMIUM FOE 1874. Every subscriber for 1874 will receive a pair of chromos. The original pictures were painted in oil for the publishers of The Aldine, by Thos. Moran, whose great Colorado picture was pur chased by Congress for SIO,OOO. The subjects were chosen to represent “The East” and “ The West.” One is a view in the White Mountains, New Hampshire; the other gives Cliffs of Green River, Wyoming Territory. The chro mos are each worked from thirty distinct plates, and are in size (12x16) and appearance an ex act fac-similes of the originals, as attested by Mr. Moran himself: Newark, N. J., Sept. 20, 4873. Messrs. Jas Sutton & Cos. Gentlemen : I am delighted with the proofs in color of your chromos. They are wonderful ly successful representations by mechanical process of the original paintings. Very respectfully, Thos. Moran. Persons of taste well prize ihese pictures for themselves—not for the price they did or did not cost, and will appreciate the enterprise that ren ders their distribution possible. If any subscriber should indicate a preference for a figure subject, the publishers will send “Thoughts of Home,”a new and beautiful chro mo, 14x20, representing a little Italian exile, whose speaking eyes betray the longings of his heart. TERMfi,!jispcr y<‘ar, inadt anc, with Oil Ohronios free. For 50 cts. extra Hie chromos will be sent mounted, varnished and prepaid by mail. Thb Ai-dine will hereafter only be obtainable by subscription. There will be no reduced or club rate; cash for subscriptions must be sent to the publishers direct, or handed to the local agent, without responsibility to the publishers, except in cases where the certificate is given, bearing the facsimile signature of James Sutton b 00.
