The Philotoken is put up in bottles at 81.50 each, with full directions. Its use can in no case do harm, and so certain is the proprietor that it will give un- ! qualified satisfaction to all who use it according to the | directions, that he authorizes his agents to refund the ! m«ney in any case where it fails.

FOR purifying the blood, and removing all diseases asising from the impurity of the same, and is especinlly recommended for the cure of Rheu matism, Scrofula, Erysipelas, Ulcerations of the Throat and legs, Pains and Swellings of the Bones, Tetters, Pimples in the Face, Old Sores, and all Cutaneous Eruptions, Neuralgic Alfections, Mercurial Diseases, and for assisting the operation and preventing fatal consequences of Mercurials in Syphilis. This preparation (by adding the Queen’s Delight, &c., to the Sarsaparilla,) combines in a more perfect degree than any known remedy, tonic and alterative powers, and is highly recommended by eminent Phy sicians. It is prepared in consequence of the recom mendations given by Dr. H. R. Frost, Professor of Materia Medica in the Medical College of Charleston, S. C., in his work on Materia Medica, only concen trated by a process of the subscriber’s to render it more convenient for administration, and with the exception of the addition of mercury which may at all times be added when necessary. To show the high estimation which Dr. F. entertains of the combination of these articles, it is only necessary to refer to the above men tioned work. There are few cases of chronic and painful Rheuma tism that will not yield to the influence of Sarsaparil'a and Queen’s Delight, if duly persevered in, especial ly if taken in conjunction with Hydr. of Potash. It is highly recommended for all diseases of the skin, chronic as well as recent. One bottle will, in most instances, effectually remove all pimples, pes tules, or blotches on the face, to which young persons in this climate are so much subject, arising either from impurity of the blood or debility. It is the best remedy known for scrofulous affections, sores and breakings out in young children, and is safe and effi cacious in removing entirely every trace of hereditary disease from the system, «n the tenderest infant; in fact, in all cutaneous affections it is invaluable. Asa general purifier of the blood, and an eradicator of all obstinate diseases, this preparation will undoubtedly take the precedence of all other remedies. It gently o|>erntes upon and regulates the bowels, restores to the blood its w onted purity, gives tone to the stomach and promotes digestion. It will effectually relieve Erysipelas even in its worst stages, and all persons suffering from this dis tressing complaint are advised to use it, first so, but if no marked relief be found after taking one bottle, it will lie necessary to use the Hydriodated Potash with it. Not wishing to publish certificates, as is done in the case of all quack medicines of the day, to effect their sale, and so force them upon the public, the subscriber begs leave to state that this preparation has been pre cribed and used by a number of Physicians and Plan ers of Charleston and neighborhood, with great sue cess, viz : Dr. H. R. Fiost; Dr. W. G. Ramsay; Dr. Thos. Y. Simons; Dr. C. Pritchard; Mr. S. Legare; Lieut. Wilson, U. S, 11. S., all of Charles* j ton; Dr. James Stoney, Beaufort, &c. For the composition of this Extract, and the properties of the Queen’s Delight, Physicians are re ferred to the sth and 6th No., Vol. 1, of the Southern Journal of Medicine and Pharmacy. HAVTLAND, HARRAL & ALLEN, Charleston, and HAVILAND, RISLEY & CO., Augusta, have been anointed Agents for the sale of the above. Prepared by J. PETER M.

ABOUT the year 1317, I was living in the west ern part of this State, pursuing the occupation of a farmer. One day while chopping in the woods 1 chopped my foot nearly off. I was in consequence laid up for some weeks. During this misfortune, I employ ed myself in perusing the fragment leaves of an old volume, printed in England some hundreds ol years ago. Among these scattered leaves I read of an herb showing properties and qualities never before found in any plant that was ever discovered. This one herb, under the force of the Retort and Crucible, developed more than ten distinct properties. This fact struck my mind so forcibly that it was im possible to get rid of it. It occupied my thoughts by day and by night. Something seemed to tell me that j Providence, whose special care is extended towards all his creatures, had never concentrated into one small herb so many medical qualities, as various and as com plicated though as perfectly identical as the human blood, without a wise and good purpose. Here was to be found the acids, the alkalis, the oils, the water, the air, the salts, the soda, <fcc., all combined, concen trated and chemically united into ONE single element of power, forming a substance more allied and in affi nity to the human blood than was ever before discov vered in the works of nature. I was satisfied in my own mind that a medicine formed from this herb would possess more virtue and power than any ever yet made. Everything seemed to point my mind to one object, viz: the preparation of this herb into a medicine. I then determined to return to the city of New York. I did so, and immediately inquired for this herb. It was not to be found. I then sent to Europe, and there found it under another name. Having prepared an Ointment from this article to my satisfaction, I gave it away to all who would use it. Hundreds, I might say thousands, took it into their families, used it. some for one thing and some for ano ther, and all, from the very first to the very last, pro nounced it of unrivalled excellence and power. The first case, however, that came under my obser vation, was a man wfio had lost the use of his arm for some years. The Ointment restored his arm com pletely in a few days. This surprised me as much as it did the patient. After him there came a man with sore eyes, produced by gunpowder —a very bad case indeed. One box only sufficed to make a perfect cure. And I would here remark that hundreds have been cured of sore eyes who never found any relief but in this Ointment. . There next came a woman who was suffering ex cruciating pain from the ague in the face. Her physi cian, (thinking it the tooth-ache,) had extracted seven of her teeth. The application of the All-Healing Ointment was attended with immediate cessation of pain. About the same time a lady made application with it for head-ache of long standing, and a falling of the hair. The Ointment cured her head-ache, and restored her hair. Since this, I have known the Oint ment to cure cases of ten, twenty, and one of forty years standing. I hesitate not to say that it is almost an infallible remedy for this complaint. About this time there were two cases, one of con sumption, and the other of scrofula, which had baf fled the skill of every physician who prescribed. It was wonderful to witness the effect of the Ointment on these persons. No one would believe it unless they had personally witnessed it. But it did the work pro perty. There was no half way business, for they re covered their health in a few months. To name all the cases would be tedious. I suppose it was tried for almost every complaint which are so common in this latitude. Rheumatism, Fevers, Quinsy, Sore• Tnroai , Cutaneous Eruptions, Diseases of the Spine and Nervous Complaints, were treated with it with un- I heard of success. But in Chest Diseases, such as Asthma, Pain and Oppression, I believe there is no better remedy. Also, the common diseases, such as Ulcer Sores, Scald Head, Humors of the Skin, In* flamaiions, Piles, Sore Eyes, Sprains, Bruises . and Burns, it seemed to be a perfect antidote. Peo ple would come into the store smiling, wishingtoknow if I was really the Seventh Son, or whether the Oint ment I gave them was indeed all-healing in its nature. For, said they, not one single application has failed to cure. L' er Complaint, particularly, was treated with great and universal success. Notwithstanding all, I have been careful not to re commend it, except in cases I knew it would do good. And because I held back from making it public, ray friends censured me. But I was never willing to lend ravself to anything of this character without first test ing its merits. This I endeavored to do on every oc i casion and when I acted as one of the sick committee in the Lodge of 1. O. of O. P., I then tested it upon j brothers in the most critical conditions, and had abun- I dant opportunity of proving its worth. I in this way, and various other ways, it found «c- patent illeiiiciues. I cess among the people, until so many were using it that it was demanded from the very necessity of the ease. One great principle was evolved from the applica tion of this medicine under such a variety of circum stances, and one of the utmost importance. I allude to the principle of Insensible Perspiration. I found that when applied to the cuticle, it acted upon that or gan in such a manner as to at once open all its pores, and restore perspiration when checked by cold and other causes. More than ten years passed in this man ner. in reducing to certainty the untold power and vir tue of the medicine. When the time finally came in which I could substantiate all I have said and all that was related to me, I determined to make it known. And in conclusion I would remark that I have placed this ointment before the people of these United States during the last nine or twelve months, and so general has been the satisfaction and so great amount of good done, that more than half a million boxes have already been sold. I do really believe there never was a medicine which gained such wide-spread, universal and unanimous satisfaction as the All- Healing Ointment. From all parts of the land there have come up one deep, sincere and universal voice of approbation, saying, “M’Alister, thy tougue hath dropped the words of truth and love, while health forever attends thy footsteps.” And were I now to give all the good sayings of the people, their unqualified approval, their thankfulness and grati tude, their joy at recovery from disease and sickness, I could fill a volume. I am myself astonished to read the letters of approval, the wonderful cures performed, and the great good that has been done. James M’Alister, 50 Fulton-st. N. Y. For sale by HAVILAND, RISLEY & CO., -6m Agents, Augusta, DR. CHRISTIE’S GALVANIC RINGS AND MAGNETIC FLUID. This remarkable invention, which has received the almost universal appro bation of the medical profession of Great Britain, com prises an entirely new application of Galvanism, as a remedial agent, by means of which the ordinary Gal vanic Batteries, Electric and Magnetic machines, &c., are entirely dispensed with, and the mysterious power of Galvanism applied without any of the objections which are inseparable from the general mode now in use; The strong doses, and at regular intervals in which Galvanism is applied by the machines, has been pronounced, after a fair and impartial trial, to be decidedly injuthous, and it was to remedy this radi cal defect, that this new application was projected, which, after unceasing toil and perseverance, has been brought to its present state of perfection. The Gal vanic Rings answer all the purposes of the most ex pensive machines, and in many other respects are more safe and certain in accomplishing the desired effects The Galvanic Rings used in connection with the Magnetic Fluid, are confidently recommended in all disorders which arise from an enfeebled or un healthy state of the nervous or vital system, and these complaints are among the most painful and universal to which we are subject. They arise, without ex ception, from one simple cause—a derangement of the nervous system—and it was in these cases that other “remedies” having so often failed, a new agent was greatly needed, which it is confidently believed, has been found m the proper and judicious application of Galvanism. The Galvanic Rings have been used with entire success in all cases of rheumatism, acute or chronic, applying to the head, face or limbs ; Gout, Tic-Dolo roux, Toothache, Bronchitis, Vertigo, Nervous or Sick Headache, Paralyses, Palsy, Epilepsy, Fits, Cramp, Palpitation of the Heart, Apopfovy, Stwr_ n«as of Joints, Spinal Oomplcilnis, Lumbago, Neu ralgia, Nervous Tremors, Dizziness of the Head, Pains in the Chest and Side, General Debility, De ficiency of Nervous and Physical Energy, and all Ner vous Disorders. In cases of confirmed Dyspepsia, which is simply a Nervous Derangement of the diges tive organs, they have been found equally successful. Their extraordinary effects upon the system must be witnessed to be believed, and as a certain preservative for the preceding complaints they are equally recom mended. The Rings are of different prices, being made of all sizes, and of various ornamental patterns, and can be worn by the most delicate female without the slightest inconvenience. In fact, the sensation is rather agreeable than otherwise. Tlie Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, Bands, Garters, Necklaces, &c. In some cases of a very severe character and of long standing, the power as applied by the Galvanic Rings is not sufficient to arrest the progress of disease and ultimately to restore health. The improved modifica tion in the Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, &c., entirely remedies this objection ; any degree of power that is required can readily be obtained, and no complaint which the mysterious agent of Galvanism can affect, will fail to be permanently relieved. These articles are adapted to the waist, arms, wrists, limbs, ancles, or any part of the body, with perfect convenience. The Galvanic necklaces are used with great benefit in cases of Bronchitis or Affections of the Throat gen erally; also in cases of Nervous Deafness; and with almost uniform success as a preventive for Apoplexy, Epileptic Pits, and similar complaints. Cliristie’s Magnetic Fluid, Is used in connection with the Galvanic Rings, and all their modifications. This composition has been pro nounced by French chemists to be one of the most ex traordinary discoveries of modern science. It is be lieved to possess a remarkable power of rendering the nerves sensitive to galvanic action, by these means causing a circulation of the influence at the seat of dis ease, and thus giving rapid and permanent relief. No other composition in chemistry is known to produce the same effect, or to impart a similar property to the nervous system by means of an outward local appli cation. The Magnetic Fluid contains nothing capable of the slightest injury, its application is agreeable, and It is as harmless in its action as it is beneficial in its result. Full explanations and directions accompany it. The combined inventions are in every way per fect! v harmless; they are at prices within the reach of all, and the discoverer only requests a fair trial, as a test of their surprising efficacy and permanent benefit. Clxristle’s Galvanic Strengthening Blas ters. These articles form another valuable application ol the mysterious influence of Galvanism. They are an important adjunct to the genuine Galvanic Rings, and their modifications, acting upon the same principle, but having the advantage of more local application. They are confidently recommended as a valuable addition in the speedy cure of Rheumatism, acute or chronic; in all nervous complaints, and as a positive remedy in case of Pain and Weakness in the Chest or Back, Pain in the Side, in Asthmatic Affections, and in Weakness or Oppressions of the Pulmonary Organs. In Spinal Complaints their effects are of the most decided racter, and they have often been used with complete success. They are also of the greatest advantage in Pains and Weakness of the Breast, and are highly re commended for many of those complaints to which fe males are especially liable. As an effectual means for strengthening the system when debilitated with dis ease or other causes; as a certain aid in Constitution al Weakness, as a preventive for colds and in all affec tions of the Chest generally, the Galvanic Strengthen ing Plaster will be found of great and permanent ad vantage. In a few words, it embraces all the advan tages of the best tonic preparation, with the important addition of the Galvanic influence, which is neither impaired or exhausted, while the action continues. These articles will be found entirely free from those ob jections which are a constant source of complaint with the ordinary plasters in common use. The great celebrity and success of these ar ticles has caused them to be counterfeited by unprinci pled persons. To provide against imposition, Dr. Christie has but one authorized agent in each city of the Uifion. The only authorized Agency in Augusta, Ga., is at the store of HAVILAND, RISLEY & CO., Druggists, &c., &c. All articles of the kind, sold elsewhere, are worth less counterfeits. 5 29 RUSH’S REMEDY’ FOR EXTERNAL PILES.—This preparation will be found to be the mest efficacious remedy ever offered to the public for the cure of this painful and obstinate disease.

I HAVE heretofore labored that my cotton gins should be thought superior to any manufactured in Georgia. By offering to the public such an article I have been liberally patronized, for which I feel grate lul. 1 have warranted all my fine gins. 1 have never had one returned as not coming up to what 1 promised. It is known I have, and do promise that my gins make superior cotton. I have no travelling agents. I rely on my gins telling a better tale for me, and one that will be sooner believed than a travelling agent; in short, I hope to make my gins sell themselves. I feel confident in stating that I have made valuable im provements in ray fine gins, and that I shall hereafter furnish an improved gin to anything heretofore sold. I would also inform citizens of W’arren, Washington, Wilkes, Columbia and Burke counties, that I have purchased Simpson’s improvement for band machin ery, and those who purchase my gins in the counties named will have the use of the patent free; the ma terial, when desired, will be put on the head block, free of charge. It will require a small outlay of ma terial on the band wheel, which will be furnished at the lowest possible rate, and which, when used, re duces the draft to an astonishing extent; the character of the improvement is simply by propelling the ma chinery by a slack band, instead of a tight one. My finest Friction Roller Gins are sold at 83 per saw. My plain gins are also greatly improved, and will be sold according to kind, from 82 to 82.50 per saw.

Oglesby’s Anti- Friction Cotton Gins, (the one 60 and the other 45 saws,) for several years, and can truly say they are superior to any thing of the kind now in use; and form an exception to what is said about this being an age of improvement, at least as far as gin making is con cerned.

Wilson, Sujier’t and Practical Machinist. Savannah, Alarch 10/A, 1847.—The undersigned, during the past season, have frequently noticed the superiority of cotton, received from those planters who use gins manufactured by G. T. Oglesby, Esq., of Sparta, over that from other gins. It has invariably commanded the highest price, and very frequently one-fourth of a cent per pound more than other cot tons of the same class.

February 20th, 1847.—We do certify, that we have used for the last two years Mr. G. T.

THE SUBSCRIBER will continue the MANUFACTURE OF GINS on his usual extensive scale, and embraces this opportunity to numerous customers for their liberal patron age heretofore. The estimation in which his gins are held may be known from the fact of his havine sold MORE THAN TWO THOUSAND, during the last three years, probably ten to one over any other Factory in the State. This evidence of the superiority of his Gins is accounted for by his being the first to introduce the late improvements, and keep ing the lead, by yearly adding new ones. His first and second improvements made the quality of cotton perfect, though some were rather slow. His third made them sufficiently fast; it then only remained to make them more durable and convenient, which has been done he believes effectually, by several new im provements the present year. Besides, he has the exclusive right for the State, and the privilege for other sections, to furnish REED’S PATENT WATER-BOXES, which arc believed to be ten times more durable than any other, by those who have made a fair trial of them, and are infallibly secure against fire by friction. His fine Gins will gin Mastodon Cotton as well as any other saw Gin can. His agents will visit planters generally, and exhibit specimens of his last improvements, and point out their advantages in time for all to engage and be supplied before next ginning season; or engagements can be made by letter, directed to him, CLINTON, JONES COUNTY, GEORGIA. Gins will be delivered at the purchaser’s residence in any part of the Slate except the Cherokee Coun ties, where they will be left at the Rail Road Depot most convenient to the purchaser. All warranted to perform well, if used according to the printed direc tions sent with each. mh2s-6mo* SAMUEL GRISWOLD. JEFFERSON, County Georgia.— David O. Dye. tolls before me, Sterling G.
