Mr. Ernenputsch, the Rector of the Academy, already favorably known to the community, has charge of the Classical department and all the branches of education requisite for admission to our best Colleges. His attainments as a scholar and success in imparting useful knowledge, emi nently qualify him for the discharge of the im portant duties of his station. Mr. Ring, the principal English Teacher, re cently engaged by the Board, comes with the high est recommendations as to character, talents, lite rary attainments and skill in teaching, and the Trustees feel assured that he will sustain the re putation which led to his selection. The branch of the Academy at Summerville is under the immediate management of Mr. Frank lin George, a gentleman of experience in teach ing, and highly recommended. The advantage of the location of this branch of the Academy in one of the most healthful neighborhoods in the State, and sufficiently remote from the unfavorable in fluence of a crowded town, are too well known to need comment. On the whole, the Board confidently recommend to the public the principal Academy and the Branch at Summerville, as being on a better footing than they have heretofore been, and promising great usefulness to those who may avail themselves of Ihe advantages which they otter. \ A.

In manv hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost ever} species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happv effects of MOFFAT'S LIFE PILLS AND I’HENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac knowledged by the persons bei efiitted, and who were previously unacquainted vvnh the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compounded, ami upon which they ejnsequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases of every form and descripiion. Their first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities arid crudities eon tantly settling around them ; and to remove (he hardened lieces which collect • convolusions of the smallest intestines. Oiher medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al cosliveness w ith rII 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 heme the prejudice of those well informed men against quack rnedii meg—cr medicines prepared and her laded to the public hv ignorant persons. '1 he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of ihe urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red color from ihe agency of tire liver and the lungs before h passes into the heat, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely thiough the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicine? have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-bura and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Cosliveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds.

In fever and ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to he particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to ihe directions. It is not by a news -1 paper notice, orany thing that he himself may say in their favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone hv the result of a fair trial. MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet edited by W.

Robertson &. Co., for the treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these ustly celebrated instruments. He has now used them for nearly a year, and, did not delicacy forbid, he could name several persons who have been radi cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous affection, by tlx? use of these Trusses, besides manv others who arc in a fairway of being entirely re lieved. The following is the language of the com mittee ol the Philadelphia Medical Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected the permanent and accurate retention of the in testines in every case of Hernia observed by the committee, without material inconvenience to the patient, and often under trials more severe than are usually ventured upon by those who wear other trusses; trials that would be imprudent with any other apparatus known to the committee.” “ The committee are induced by the foregoing conclusions to recommend, in strong terms, the in struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of the profession, as the best known means of me chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the highest chances of radical cure.” The following is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in our own city. “ All must admit of the radical cure of hernia, and that I Hr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to effect the object.” Persons from a distance can have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all ne cessary information given to enable them to adjus it themselves. The poor, who are laboring under this afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous ly upon presenting a certificate, from someresponsi* ble person, of their pecuniary disability. The instruments are of all sizes, and applicable to every variety of reducible rupture. _ feb 20 V. M. ROBERTSON, M. D. TO THE FACULTY AND HEADS OF FAMILIES. DR. MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF TOMATO —a substitute for Calomel, and does not belong to the family of quack medicines; for the reason that the component parts are made known to the faculty, or any one else that may wish to know, by any of the agents keeping them .or sale. Since this discovery so long and anx iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to be made from the stalk, a thing not more aosutu than for one to offer meal from the corn stalk, to say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato so far North. Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the Tomato Pills (proper) for the great benefits of which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they profess to be, and will do for olhcis what they have done for such as mav have used them; as .his is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will doubtless be valuable information to families to know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much of the hapatine, or active principle, and when used as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the system in much better condition than the other kind ; many will recollect with what trembling anxiety calomel has been given to children, and how they then wished for a substitute. It has long been known that the Tomato contained ca thartic principles, but not until of late was it ascertainei that .ney contamca alterative and diu retic properties. The Faculty embrace and use the preparation most cheerfully, for the reason that they know what it is .Were it a patent mystery, they would be bound to reject the medicine, as they justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the day. If you wish to cleanse the system with a mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in his city.

Its known and 1 valued virtues have already enriched to an almost incredible extentthe children of this warlike prince, not only by actual sale of the article itself to in dividuals, hut by parting with copies of his receipt at enormous prices to the Chief of every tribe of Indians in America, with a solemn promise to the Great Spirit, never to divulge the “art of its com position until he sleeps with his fathers,” although free to use it in their respective tribes, which places it in the hands of every Indian who rely with, I may say, icligious confidence on its cura ble powers.

It is the result of scientific research, and is entirely of a different cbaiacter from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing rompaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so much suffering should have existed forages without any discovery of an effectual preventive, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a> mined fact that this complaint, whether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those vv ho think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th a sys tem has become vitiated or dcbilitaied, th/ough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration of jhe natural and healihy functions of the system. This object. Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to uitain. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with the headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health.

This latter consideration has prompted rhe author of these bit ters to make them known.

By using these bitters he has been restored to health. Mrs. Coshy was troubled for many years, but w as restored to health by the use of these bitters.

Indeed ihe’speed and certainty of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites, <fcc. <fec., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, if prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in five days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate casesol w hite swelling that ran be nna- ! gir ed, have been destroyed by it in less than two j months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effi- ' caey is indy surprising, and if applied in time, its I powers of attraction are so wonderful that they will I at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from j pervading the system.

They have passed away from the hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide of experiment, and now stand before the public as high in reputation, and as extensively employed in all parts of the United States, the Canadas, Texas Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that has ever been prepared for the relief of suffering man. They have been introduced wherever it was found possible to carry them ; and there are but few towns that do not contain some remarkable evidences of their good effects. The certificates that have been presented to the propiietor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of live hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by this mcdicin been the subject of editorial comment, in virion newspapers and journals; and it may with truth be asserted,that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value thin are at tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine and there are.thousands of families who declare they re never satisfied until they have a supply always on hand. 1 hey have no rival in curing and preventing Billions fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, IncipientDiarrhcea,Flatulence,llaoitu al Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Complexion, and in cases of torpor of the bowels, where a cathartic or aperient is needed They are exceedingly mild in their operation, producing neither nausea, griping nor debility. The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca.,March 3d,1838: Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, By request of your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your piPs ; and i would add, that you may make use ol them, in connection with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I speak ot their merits from experience, as 1 and my family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three I 3 cais ; and so great ape the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that I would rather pur chase them alien dollars abox than have my house without them. I will not enumerate the afflictions they have relieved us of; but I can assure you they were many, and of very opposite natures, which has fully proved to me that your medicine is a sim ple purifier of the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. 1 will mention one case. 1 have a sister who had been for a long pe riod severely afflicted with dropsy in the chest and was brought by it to the very verge of the grave. She was attended by the most eminent physicians that money could procure; but all their efforts to restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer ings were fruitless ; and accordingly,we all consid ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she was in this situation,"ex pecting every day to be her last, your pills wore introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal pable were their effects that three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less than three months she" uas perfectly restored to health. This case, 1 and all who were witness of it, (but more especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to miraculous; and yet 1 could mention many more ! ai i equally desperate nature, in which yourpills were equally successful in rescuing the' patients from the jaws of death. Need 1 add that the popu larity of your .medicine amounts to enthusiasm in this section of the country ? But this I presume you know from the immense quantity you ilDoo'c I of. I may mention, however, that notwithstanding | its general use, I never heard an individual complain j of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from bal | cigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen- J timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS, j To Dr. Peters, —Sir—For upward* 3 of fifteen : months, 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever : and Ague; and during the time could find nothing— though 1 had applied to every tiling that gave me any thing like permanent relief. At length, how ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best j>liy sicians, and 1 am most gra tel'ul and happy ill being aide to add, that 1 had scarcely used two boxes when I found that they had restored me to perfect health. Since then, various members of my family have used them with equal success — and consequently 1 feel it my duty to apprise you of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate, as i am anxious to add :ny public testi mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAMES. Augusta, Ga., Feb 10, 1839. Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. 1L Irwin of Florence, Georgia: Dr. J. P. Peters—My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th inst, I was called in great haste to the house of a fellow ci.izcn, (Mr. Lee,) where I found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynanche Tracnealis (Croup) and apparently be yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for tune, however, 1 had in my pocket a broken box of yourpills—four ol which I administered, with such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This case,in connection with my name is at C your ser vice—and 1 have the pleasure to be able to inform you that your inestimable medicine is in such great favor with Hie faculty here, that 1 believe there is not one of them who does not use it in his private practice.

Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo gart? of Providence, R. 1., Dec. 17, 1838.—Peters’ pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi cine, those effects being produced by the differences of the quantity taken, and are decidedly superior to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills.

I : think you have discoveied the “FJiiir of Lile,’ which the alchyniists have been so lung in quest of; 41 and that (pardon my ofliciousncss,; you should have named it accordingly. From the eminent Dr. Dcvigney, of Brussels . October 3, 1837. To Dr. Magnin: My dear friend —l am mos gratified at the unprecedented popularity ol your “Lucira Cordial, and am able to year testimony to its surprising virtue, i had a patient recently, 1 M , a gentleman ot fortune, who had lor several years abandoned hiraseii in the vortex oi dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at length by the utter prostration of ail his virileeaer gH's. He was,indeed,reduced to the last extremity ! ol debility and t.isteiessness, lor, if an occasional dash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost imnudiate, and the result perfect prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrums in such cases ; but, as 1 had anticipated, without success; and when 1 saw the “ Lucma Cordial” i advertised, 1 must confess that even the great weight of your name did nut give me much hope in it, at least so far as regarded the case in hand. 1 felt bound to try it, how ever, and was soon satisfied ot its efficacy; for before a buttle was expended, mV j patient gave evidence ol the returning elasticity of las system ; ami he is now, having used four bottles, as well is ever. The number of documents, such as ihe above which have been received by Mr. Magnin, since the first appearance of “ Lo Cordial do Lucine,” would fill a volume as largo as the Bible.
