The undersigned propose to publish in Augusta, 7 a weekI >'P 3 ? t* he entitled The Reformer, 0 extia imperial size, from the 10th of May to the 10th of November next, for Ore Dollar in advance. As its name indicates, it will be devoted exclusively to the cause of Reform, the elevation of WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON, of Ohio, for 1 resident, and JOHN TYI.ER, of Virginia, for V ice President, and the subversion of the present Administration, the necessity of reform in which is be oming every day more and more apparent. — It will observe a mild, dignified tone, and address itself to the common sense of every class of citi- Z6ns, lor whose benefit it is desi^^ned. Phis Prospectus is issued under the impression that the friends of reform will make a unittd and zealous effort to give the paper a general circula tion, in short to send it to the house of every man who reads. The People want light, and if our friends will aid us in our work, we shall be able to counteract the thousand calumnies of the Van Buren presses, and carry the "war into Africa.”— In the language of a distinguished co-worker, "All we ask is to be heard by the people. It is for them we speak, and if \vc can get a hearing, we have no fears of the result,” even in Georgia. — "The people will vindicate their wrongs, and hurl their oppressors from office.” We ask the press throughout this and the ad joining Ftates, to insert our Prospectus, and we especially invoke the friends of the cause to be vigilant in procuring subscribers and forward their names by mail as early as possible. The paper will contain nothing but leading mat ter, being entirely free from all advertisements, and is p aced at so low a pi ice as to bring it within the means of every man.

PEDIGREE. J. R. H. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows : ‘ Tom Tunstall was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1831. His iam was High land Mary .and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare; the sire of Highland Mary was old Paco lei. Tom Tunstall was sired by old Pacific, and he by old Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ I am satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended from as good a stuck as any horse in the United States. — He was a racehorse of the first order, but I lear will never be able to make a first rate race again, owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Har dy Cryek, Gallatin, Tennessee, you can get a full pedigree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” Thesamc- Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus : —“ Highland Mary combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn breds than any mare ever raised in Tennessee.— She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Sir Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlcmainc, (son of O’Kelley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest importations of the last century;) great grand-dam by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great g real-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught; great-great-great-great-great-grand -dam by Lee’s old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none will require a purer or better attested pedegree!— If farther recommendation be wanted, call and seb 1 Tom WILLIAM HOLMES, Agent, feb 22—trw&wtf PUBLIC SALES.

MOFFAT’S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES. f IMIESE medicines are indebted for their name *- to the ir manifest and sensible action in puri lying the spring and channels ol life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In many hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost everj species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PIiENiX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac- Inowledged by the persons henefmted, and who were previously unacquainted with the bean'ilully philosophical principles upon which they are compounied, and upon which they act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases of every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the coals of the stomach and bowels, tho various impurities and crudities con tantly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened faeces w hich collect in the convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiventss w ith all its train ofevils, or in a sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This fact is well known to ad regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her alded to the public bv ignorant jk rsons. 'J he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse ihe kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and ihe lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs, 'i he blood, which lakes its red color from the agency of Uhe liver and the longs before it pas>es into the heat, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely through the veins, renews every part of the «}stem, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Lite Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, 1 leart-bura and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consump tion, SScurv), Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive coni plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common Colds and influenza and various other complaints which afflict the huma- frame. In fever and ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful ; so much so ihat in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according lo the directions. It is not hy a news paper notice, or any thrag that he himself may say in their favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the result of a fair trial.
