* Prosaectus of a New Work to be entitled
GEORGIA ILILSTBATED,
Ts N a series of original pictures, on steel, with let
| )er press descriptions, j 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
our own country. j
The proposition to issue jmch a work, devoted to
the scenery of Georgia, although novel, will lind
universal favor, and be regarded as it the Edit
or, a plan at once felicitou* and feasible. There
is much scenery in our Stalle,that is not surpassed
in beauty and sublimity, by that of any other Stale
in the Union. The upper ronnties abound in scenes,
which need only be known to command the admi
ration ol all who love the' beauties of nature. —
Much of the scenery of tire North is inferior to our
own, but is yet visited by thousands simply because
it has been written sung aijrd “ lionized ,” by au
thors and travellers until it!? 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. 1
The South is charged with general indifference
to the progress of Literatur and Fine Arts ; and
probably the strongest found ition for the charge is
found in her inaction in entei prise calculated to fos
ter these objects. The pubL nation of the propos
ed work will it is believed, »e an effective blow
at the foundation, a step tow; rds the establishment
of our literary reputation, to vhich end much hon
orable effort is now directed.!
A third consideration and jthe last w'hich will
now be urged, is the intrinsic’value of such publi
cation as “ Georgia InLusTKaprED.” it will embo
dy the representations of the tleautiful and sublime
in our State scenery, and affold to all, at a trilling
expense, exact pictures of oul mountains, vallies,
cataracts, public buildings, &c|, which they may or
may not otherwise behold, but vhich, in either case,
would afford peculiar pleasure
The proposed work w r ill be executed in a style
superior to any Similar pictori 1 work in the coun
try. The plates w'ill be exec ited on steel, by em
inent engravers, from original drawing, made ex
pressly for the purpose, by M:. T. AddPon .Rich
ards, of Augusta. The engra ings will be accom
companied with letter press di scriptions, prepared
for the work, and in this dej irtrnent the editor
will secure, as far as possible, the assistance and
co-operation of our best writer; In short, no pains
will be spared to make thd wc k a perfect gem of
the kind, to the end that it, ma ; - meet a welcome
reception not only at home but also abroad.

fying the spring and channels ol life, mid enduing
them with renewed tone and vigor, in manv bun*
dred certified cases which has been made public,
an d in almost every species of disease to which
t l, e human frame is liable, the happy effects ol
MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PIIKNIX BIT
TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac-
Inowledged by the persons boneflitted, and who
were previously unacquainted with the beauUlnlly
philosophical principles upon which they are
compounded, and upon which they sonsequently
LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves
in diseases ot every form and description. 1 heir
first operation is to loosen from the coats ol the
stomach and bowels, the various impurities and
crudities eon tantly settling around them ; ano to
remove the hardened fasces which collect
convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind as to produce habitu
al costiveness with 11 its train of evils, or in a sud
den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This fact
is well known to all regular anatomists, who ex
amine the human bowels after death ; and htn-te
the prejudi* e of those well informed men against
quack me.iicnies—cr medicines prepared and her
laded to the public bv ignorant p< rsons. Jhe 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 ot which
entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary
organs. Theblocd, which takes its red color from
the agency of the liver and the lungs before it
passes into the beat, being thus purified by them
and nourished by toud coming from a clean stom
ach, courses Ircely th.ough the veins, renewsevery
part of the system, 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 lor Dyspepsia, I latulency , 1 alpitation ot
the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head
ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor
and Melancholy, C os liveness, Diarrhoea, ( huleru,
Fevers of all kinds. Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies
of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consump
lion, Scurvy, Fleers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic
Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com
plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and oiher disagreeable
Complexions, Sait Rheum, Erysipelas, Common
Colds and influenza and various other complaints
which afflict the humar frame. In fever and
ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been
must 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 be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly I
according to the directions. It is not by a news-:
paper notice, or any thir-g that he himself may say |
in their lavor, that he hopes to gain credit, it is 1
alone by the resuli of a lair trial.

Div. ... sfOH.N. a German pnyviCiun ol much
nose, naving devotee ms attention .or some
years to rne cure ann removal of tnect uses of NER
VOUS AND SICK HEAD aCHE, has the satis
faction to make known, ilia he has a renudy which
by removing the causes cures effectually and |>erma
nently ibis distressing complaint. There are many
famines who have considered Sick Headache aeon- j
stitntionul incurable family complaint* Dr. 8. as
sures them that ihey are mistaken, ai d labouring
under distress which tney might not only alleviate
hut actually eradicated by the us» if his remedy.
It is the result ol scientific research,and is entirely i
of a different cbaiacter from advertised patent raedi- !
cities, and is not unpleasant to the iaste.
HEADACHE, SR K OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s j
remedy lor this distressing eornpaint is every day |
gaining is certainly a matter ot much astonishment, !
That so m ich suffering should have existed forages i
w ithout any discovery of an effectual preventive, or !
cure, is truly a subject of much regret hut Dr. S.
now assures the public that such a remedy has been
invented as will convince the most, credulous. The
principles on w hich it acts arc simple and plain. It is ■
an u milled fact that this complaint, whether called !
Bick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from the stomach—those who think they have
the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this '
organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th“ sys- I
tern has become vitiated or debilitated, tlnough the i
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expect s restoration of jhe naiural and
healthy functions of the system. This object. Dr
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain.
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and Ihe sooner sufferers with ihe headache become
convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges ins
prrfessionai reputation on this fact. Tne remedy
may lie had ol apothecaries generally throughout
the United Stales.

of suffering man. 'ihey have been int.oduced

there are but. few towns that do not contain some
remarkable evidences of them good etfec:s. The

who are the most competent Judges of their merits.

been the subject of editorial comment in vaiious
newspapers and journals ; and it may with truth
>e asserted, that no me heme of the kind has ever
received testimonials of greater value than are at

that the distance to his place will not be an objec

ly disposed 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 him, he could secure
the services of a gentleman of well known ability
in Mathematical science. In reference to the sub
scriber himselt, he has had charge of Schools and
Academies in this State during a period of ten
years, and begs leave to refer, if 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, before he
could be admitted to take the Rectorship of tne
Columbia County Academy, which he had for three
years. Should a class of eiget or ten young men
be found, be could devote two hours to their in
struction each day, at a lime that would not inter

totally neglected in our Southern Seminaries, viz:
Mythology, Latin Exercises, and Prosody-, without
which the Scansion of Pentameter and Hexameter
Verse cannot be acquired.
Ihe hist quarter’s tuition will be required at
