Prospectus of a' New Work to be entitled GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED, IN a series of original pictures, on steel, with let ler 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 our 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 scenes, which need only be known to command the admi ration of all who Jqvc the beauties of nature. — Much of the scenery! of the North is inferior to our own, but is } - et visited by thousand* simply because it has been written \sung an 1 “ lionized ,” by au thors and travellers {until its beauty has become universally known and appreciated. It is desirable that attention shoukj be directed to our own resour ces of picturesque it,; natural scenery, and when this is done, our owe: land Northern tourists will speedily render our tleautiful views as immortal as our language. | The South is chart-jed with general indiffetence to the progress of Literature and Fine Arts; and probably the strongest foundation for the charge is found in her inaction jin enterprise calculated to fos ter these objects. Tiie publication of the propos ed work will it is believed, be an effective blow at the foundation, a st ep towards the establishment of our literary reputation, to which end much hon orable effort is now |irectcd. A third consideration and the last which will bow be urged, is the 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 belji<rld,but which, in either case, would afford peculiar [-Measure. 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, froml original drawing, made ex pressly for the purposb, by Mr. T. Addi-on Rich ards, of Augusta. The engravings will be accom companied with letccl press descriptions, prepared for the work, and in [this department the editor will secure, as far as ifiossible, the assistance and co-operation of our heist writers. In short, no pains will be spared to mak<| thd work a perfect gem of the kind, to the end tii.it it may meet a welcome reception not only at llome but also abroad. co;|ijiticns.

MOFFAT’S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES UJAHESE medicines are indebted for their name L »o tin ir manilest and sensible action in puri fying the spring and channels ol file, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In manv hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost every species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac knowledged by the jiersons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compounfed, and upon which they consequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases of every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the coals ol the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities con tantly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened faeces which collect convolusions of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as lo produce habitu al costiveness with till its train of evils, or tn a sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This fact is well known to nil regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and hence the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines —or medicines prepared and her laded to the public bv ignorant p< rsons. Ihe 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 oft he urinary organs. The blood, which lakes its red color from the agenev of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heaT, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely th.ougli the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy lor Dyspepsia, Hatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-born 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, Scur%), Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common Colds and influenza and various other complaints which afflict the huniar frame. 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 be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according lo the directions. It is not by a news paper notice, or any thirg that he himself may say in their lavor, that he hopes lo gain credit. It is alone by the resuT of a lair trial.

There are many families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable lumiiy complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that they are mi.-iaken, and labouring litioer distress which imy might not only alleviate but actually eradicated by the us if'his remedy. It is the result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different character from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the inste. HEADACHE, Sit K OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr Spohn’s remedy for this distressing compaintis every day gaining is certainly a matter ofmuch astonishment, That so much suffering should have existed forages w ithout any discovery of an effectual preventive, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public lhatsucha remedy has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The ..nnciples on w hich it acts are simple and plain. It is an a milled fact that tins complaint, whether called Sick 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 a sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration ol the natural and healthy functions ol the system. This object, Dr Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with ihe headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration ol health, Dr. Spohn pledges his professional reputation on this fact. 'The remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broau-street, Augusta. mar 26 PETERS’ \ HH TABLi: TILLS.

THE subscriber wil continue his School at the new dwelling on Walker street, and hopes that the distance to his place will not be an objec- j tion with any lady or gentleman who may be kind 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 tne minor branches of Mathematics, and should a sutti 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 himself, 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, bcfoie he could be admitted to take the Rectorship of tne Columbia County Academy, which he had for thiee years. Should a class of eight or ten young men be found, be could devote two hours to their in stiuction each day, at a time that would not inter fere with his School. There are three things con nected with the Classics, which is almost, if 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 place, he will comply with their wishes, it he meets witn sufficient pa tronage.
