COBB, S. A. D. Prospectus of a New Work 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- j Ijw one in Europe, and is rapidly gaining favor in : out own country. The proposition to issue such a work, devoted to ! the scenery of Georgia, although novel, will find U&iversal favor, and be regarded as it is by the Edit- i 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 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 has been written sung and “ lionized ,” by au thors and travellers until its beauty has become universally known and appreciated. It is desirable {hat attention should be directed to our own resour- | c«s us 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 j at the foundation, a step towards the establishment Pf our literary reputation, to which end much hon orable effort is now directed. A third consideration and the last which will pow 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, farads, pubiic 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 conn fry- 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 ee-operation of our best writers. In short, no pains will be spared to make thd work a perfect gem of ike kind, to the end that it may meet a welcome reception not only at home but also abroad. CONDITIONS. I. “Georgia Illusirated,” will be issued in monthly parte, in the quarto form, at $5 per annum invariably in advance, or at 50 cents for each part, | payable on delivery „ 11.

THE subscriber wil continue his School at the new dwelling on \\ alker street, and hopes I that the distance to his place will not be an objec tion with any lady or gentleman who may be kind ly disposed to patronize him.

In reference to the sub scriber himself, he lias had charge of Schools and Academies in this State during a period »1 ten i years, and begs leave to refer, if necessary, to Col. j Thomas N. Hamilton of Athens, and the Rev. Juriah Harris, before whom lie had been examined , ; by a classical gentleman of the North, before he j could be admitted to take the Rectorship of tnc ' Columbia County Academy, which he had for three ! years. Should a da--! of eight or ten young men | be found, he could devote two hours to their in I struction each day, at a time that would not inter- ! sere with his School. There are three things con- | nccted with the Classics, which is almost, if not i totally neglected in our Southern Seminaries, viz: i Mythology, Latin Exercises, and Prosody, without which the Scansion of Pentameter and Hexameter i Verse cannot be acquired. The first quarter’s tuition will be required at , entrance, and the scholastic year will be the same 1 as that of the other Seminaries of the city.

STOY, Agent. j MOFFAT’S VEGET ABLE LIFE 51 ERIC IN ES fHHESE medicines arc indebted for their name JL to tin ir manifest ami sensildc action in pnri fying the spring and channels of life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In many hun dred certified cases widen has been made public, and in almost ever} species of disease to which ; the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BIT TERB have been gratefully and publicly ac knowledged by the persons beuefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the benutilully philosophical principles upon which they are corapounJed, and upon which they consequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves ; in diseases ol every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the cords of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities con-tantly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened feces which collect convobisions of the smallest intesiines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habifu j al costiveness wilh > 11 its train of evils, or in asud | den d.airtioea, with its eminent dangers. This fact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and hence the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medic mes—or medicines prepared oral her [ Jaded to the public bv ignorant pi rsons. '1 he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleans© 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 the urinary organs. The blocd, which lakes its red color from the agency ol tlie liver ami the lungs before it * passes into the hea t, being inns purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom- i | ach, courses freely th.ough the veins, renews every purl of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Lite Medicfine., have been i thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation ol the Henri. Loss nl Appetite, Heart-lmra and Head ache, Restlessness, ill-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Costivencss, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers ot' all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthmnand Consump , lion, tSeunj, ! leers, Inveterate bores, Scorbutic! Eruptions and Had Complexions, Eruptive com ! plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable j Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Common | j Colds and influenza and various oilier complaints j J which afflict the hit mar frame. In fever and j j ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been ' most eminently successful; so much so that in the ! 1 Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni j i yersaliy prescribe them. j All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is ; j to be particularin taking the Lite Medicimsstnclly according to the directions. It is not by a news paper notice, or any ihirg that he himself may say in tlieiv favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the result of a fur trial. i MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL, designed ' i domestic guide lo health.—This little pamphlet edited by' \\ .

Having uevoieo ms attention lor some years to tnecure ana removal of t trees uses of NER- V Ol>B AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has the satis faction to make known, that he has a remedy which by removing lhe causes cures effectually and perma nently this distressing complaint. There are many families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutioual incurable family complaint - Dr. 8. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which they might not only alleviate but actually eradicated by the uss »f his remedy. It is l he result of scientific research, and is entirely of a different chaiacferlrorn 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 compaint R every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so m ich suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual prevent iv \ 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 l lie most credulous. The | .♦nncipies on which it acta are simple ami plain. It is an a milted fact that this complain), whether called B;ck Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those who think they have the Nervous Headac he may rest assured that this j organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th=* sy#- j tern has become vitiated or debilnaied, through i lie stomach, and that only through ihe same channel must they expects restoration oi ihe natural and healthy functions ol the system. This object, Dr Spulm’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. J he truth oi this position ennnot be controverted, and tire sooner sufferers with the headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his prefc-sionai reputation on this fact. Tne remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the Unitea States. For sam oy aNTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broaa-street.

No article in the whole range of the Pharmacopeia is perhaps of greater importance to mankind ; and none which has engaged a greater share of chcrai- i cal attention. Every preparation hitherto made 1 from this drug, whether in the form of Extract, | Morphia, Black Drop, Paragoric. or Laudanum, | contains in close combination a poison with the an- j tid to, and lienee we find the administration of ' them attended with a numerous train of evils, among which arc headache, lassitude, tremors, nausea, vomiting, constipation, derangement of the nervous sv stern —and a quality wonderfully predis posing the system t • its habitual use : to obtain therefore the Soothing Opiate and inti-Spasmodic 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; ir presented itself to his mind as a subject of great magnitude; the acquisition to the medical faculty of so important a remedial agent, and the incalcu lable amount of human mis. ry that would be alle viated by the discovery, have been to him a sure guarantee that he would reap a rich reward for his labors, at least in self-gratulation.
