HAMILTON’S ELEXER OF OPIUM,
A new and important Discovery.
IT has long been a great desideratum in Mrdica’
Science, and has been the subject of aivas 1
amount of Chemical experiment, to obtain the t ie"
dainal quahties of Opium to the exclusion of it s
noxious principles and useless combinations. No
article in the whole range of the Pharmacopaia is
perhaps of greater importance to mankind ; and
none which has engaged a greater share of chroni
cal attention. Every preparation hitherto made
from this drug, whether in the form of Extract,
Morphia, Black Drop, Paragoric. or Laudanum,
contains in close combination a poison with the <;n
tid te, and hence we find the administration of
them attended with a numerous train of evils,
among which are headache, lassitude, tremors,
nausea, vomiting, constipation, derangement of the
nervous sy stem —and a quality wonderfully predis
posing the system t • its habitual use : to obtain
therefore the Soothing Opiate and Anti-Spasmbdic i
Anodyne in all its virtues, separate from the dele
terious principles of the drug, has for a series of
years engaged the profound attention of the author ;
it presented itself to his mind as a subject of great
magnitude; the acquisition to the medical sac 4Ly
ot so impoitant a remedial agent, and the incalcu
lable amount of human misery that would be dide
viated by tiie discovery, have been to him a inure
guarantee that he would reap a rich reward foij Lis
labors, at least in self-gratulation. Having stpis
factorily tested the Elixer in several hunureefe of
instaaces, he has now* the happiness of saying to
the public that his labors have been crowned with
triumphant success. "J. HAMILTON,M. 15.

“THE MATERNAL FRIEND”
IS one of those invaluable remedies that stands
the test of trial. In every instance that Ints
come to the knowledge of the proprietors, it has i
proved itseli to be what it is recommended^—a
pleasant, safe, and efficacious remedy for all the
sympathetic affections attendant on Pregnancy,
and all those periodical disorders to w’hich both
married and unmarried females aie liable. Delicacy
forbids giving the details of its merits in a news
paper advertisement, but it may be stated that st
has been in use under various names —(The Phlo
token, Mother's Relief, $c..J for some ten years
past, and wherever introduced, the demand for it,
(without the aid oi'“ puffing,”) lias been coustn il -
ly on the increase. This fact in evidence o: iis
real virtues, together with the belief that bundled?
of females are suffering from w ant of the know
ledge of a remedy adapted to their cases, induce!
the proprietors respectfully to call the attention
of sufferers to their pamphlets, which accompany
each bottle, and which may be had gratis of any
ot their agei ts.

SCHOOL NOTICE.
nmiE subscriber wil continue his School at the
I new dwelling on Walker street, and hopes
that the distance to his place will not be an objec
tion with any lady or gentleman who may be kind
ly d sposed to patronize him. He will pledge him
self to prepare youth for Franklin College, or any
other College in the Union, in Classics and in the
minor branches of Mathematics, and should a suffi
cient patronage be extended to hi.n, he could secuie
the services ol a gentleman of well known ability
in Mathematical science. In reference to the sub
scriber himself, he has had charge of Schools and
Academies in this State during a period of ton
years, and begs leave to refer, it necessary , to Col.
Thomas N. Hamilton of Athens, and the Rev.
Juiiah Harris, before whom he had been examined
by a classical gentleman of the North, befoie he
could be admitted to take the Rectorship of tne
Columbia County Academy, which he had lor three
years. Should a class of eight or ten young men
be found, he could devote two hours to their in
struction each day, at a lime that would not inter
fere with his School. There are three things con
nected with the Classics, which is almost, it not
totally neglected in our Southern Seminaries, viz:
: Mythology, Latin Exercises, and Prosody, without
which the Scansion of Pentameter and Hexameter
Verse cannot be acquired.
The first quarter’s tuition will be required at
entrance, and the scholastic year will be the same
as that of the other Seminaries of the city.
At a future time should his patrons desire his
coming to a more convenient piace, he will comply
with men wishes, ii he meets witu sufficient pa
tronage. DAiNiEL MAHONEY,

Prospectus of a New VV ork to be entitled
GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED,
IN a series of original pictures, on steel, with let
ter press descriptions. The plan of publishing
in successive numbers pictorial works, illustrative
of the scenery of countries, has long been a popu
lar one in Europe, and is rapidly gaining favor in
oui own country.
The proposition to issue such a work, devoted to
the scenery of Georgia, although novel, will find
universal favor, and be regarded as it is by the Edit
or, a plan at once felicitous and feasible. There
is much scenery in our .State, that is not surpassed
in beauty and sublimity, by that of any other State
in the Union. The upper counties abound in scones,
which need only be known to command the admi
ration of all who love the beauties of nature. —
Much of the scenery of the North is inferior to our
own, but is yet visited by thousands simply because
it lias been written sung and “ lionized ,” by au
thors and travellers until its beauty has become
universally known and appreciated. It is desirable
that attention should be directed to our own resour
ces of picturesque in natural scenery, and when
this is done, our own and Northern tourists will
speedily render our beautiful views as immortal as
our language.
The South is charged with general indifference
to the progress of Literature and Fine Arts ; and
probably the strongest foundation for the charge is
found in her inaction in enterprise calculated to fos
ter these objects. The publication of the propos
ed work will it is believed, be an effective blow
at the foundation, a step towards the establishment
of our literary reputation, to which end much hon
orable effort is now directed.
A third consideration and the last which will
now be urged, is (he intrinsic value of such publi
cation as “ Georgia Illustrated.” It will embo
dy the representations of the beautiful and sublime
in our State scenery, and afford to all, at a trifling
expense, exact pictures of our mountains, vallies,
cataracts, public buildings, &c., which they may or
may not otherwise behold, but which, in either case,
would afford peculiar pleasure.
The proposed work will be executed in a style
superior to any similar pictorial work in the coun
try. The plates will be executed on steel, by em
inent engravers, from original drawing, made ex
pressly for the purpose, by Mr. T. Addi-on Rich
ards, of Augusta. The engravings will be accom
companied with letter press descriptions, prepared
for the work, and in this department the editor
will secure, as far as possible, the assistance and
co-operation of our best writers. In short, no pains
will be spared to make thd work a perfect gem of
the kind, to the end that it may meet a welcome
reception not only at home but also abroad.
CONDITIONS.

monthly parts, in the quarto form, at $5 per annum
invariably in advance, or at 50 cents for each part,
payable on delivery.
