It is now about two years since they were put in operation, and I do not know that they have ever been detained ibr half an hour for repairs. In haste, yours truly, &c., \. G. Washbon, Agent.

"IIHIS REMARKABLE INVENTION, A. 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 GaKanism applied without any of the objections which aie inseparable from the general mode now in j use » strong doses, and at regular intervals in 1 which Galvanism is applied by the machines, has ! been pronounced, after a fair and impartial trial, to be decidedly injurious, 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, anew agent was greatly needed, which it is confidently believed, has been found m the proper and judicious application of Galvanism. Ihe Galvanic Rings have been used with entire success in all cases of rheumatism, acute or chronic, a Pply' n g to the head, face or limbs : Gout, Tic-Dolo reux, Toothache, Bronchitis, Vertigo, Nervous orSick Headache, Indigestion, Paralyses, Palsy, Epilepsy, Fits, Cramp, Palpitation of the Heart, Apoplexy, Still ness of Joints, Spinal Complaints, 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. Christie’s Magnetic Fluid, Is used in connection w ith 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 Fiuid 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. Pull explanations and directions accompany it. The combined inventions are in every way per fectly 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. The Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, Bauds, 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 w hich 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 gene erally; also in cases of Nervous Deafness; and with almost uniform success as a preventive for Ajtoplexv, Epileptic Fits, and similar complaints. Christie’s Galvanic Strengthening Plas ters. These articles form another valuable application of 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 cha 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 ages 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. ffg* 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 Union. 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. 529 EPPING’S COMPOUND FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA. AND QUEEN’S DELIGHT, &C. FOR purifying the blood, and removing all diseases asising from the impurity of the same, and is especially 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 Affections, 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. ot 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 ol hereditary disease from the system, »n the tenderest infant ; in fact, in all cutaneous affecti ons it is invaluable.

It gently operates upon and regulates the bowels, restores to the blood its wonted purity, gives tone to thestomacti 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 be 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.

Tlie only known Medicine tkat at the same time Purges, Purifies and Strengthens the System. DR. LeROY’S PILLS are a new medicine j which has just appeared, and is fast taking the places of all others of the same class. These pills are composed of many ingredients, but the two principal are Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry, so united as to act together; the one, through its admixture with other substances, purifying and purging, while the other is strengthening thersystem. Thus these pills are at the same time tonic and opening; a desideratum long and eagerly sought for by medical men but never before discovered. In other words, they do the work of two medicines, and do it much better than any two we know of, for they remove nothing from the system but the impurities, so that while they purge they strength en; and hence they cause no debilitation, and are fol lowed by no reaction. Dr. Leßoy's Pills have a wonderful influence on the blood ; they not only purify, without weakening it, but they remove all noxious particles from the chyle before it is converted into fluid, and thus make impure blood an utter impossibility. As there is no debilitation, so there is no nausea or sickness attend ing the operations of this most excellent of medicines, which never strains or tortures the digestive functions but causes them to work in a perfectly natural man ner, and hence persons ta king them do not become pale and emaciated, but the contrary, for wffiile it is the property of the Sarsaparilla, united as it is with other ingredients, to remove all that is foreign and impure, it is equally the property of the Wild Cherry to retain all that is natural and sound ; and hence a robust state of health is the certain result of their united operations. Certificate from Sir James Clark, the eminent English Physician. l Dr. Le Roy’s Vegetable Universal Pills,’ says the celebrated Sir James Clark, promises fair to, in a great measure, exclude the necessity of the lancet, for they prevent too much fullness of blood, by forcing from the chyle all impure matter, which would otherwise be converted into fluid, and taint all the rest; and the blood which is formed under their influence must, from the nature of their principal component parts, be pure and healthy. In my private practice I have ex cluded nearly every other cathartic in their favor; and the more I use them, the more my confidence in their virtues is confirmed. They unite extremes which were heretofore considered paradoxical by the faculty; that is, they are a strengthening purgative and a purifying tonic ; hence they may at all times be administered without hazard, no matter how weak or debilitated the patient may be —insomuch as their conservative properties are precisely in the ratio of their purgative effects—so that while they evacuate ( the bowels in the most thorough manner, they also trengthen and tone them. From the Morning Chronicle, Dec. 11,1845. One might think that people had discovered the Elixir of life and were to die no more from the hub bub they are making about the new medicine —Dr. Le Roy’s Pills —the virtues of which all men are ex tolling to their neighbors. We have taken pains to as certain the truth of the matter and are able to say up on sound authority that Dr. Leroy’s Vegetable Univer sal Pills are deserving of all that can be said in their favor and combine opposite and admirable qualities never before united in a medicine ; those of purgatives and tonics. The pills of Dr. Leroy have caused al most as great a commotion among the public as the writings of Boz ; and will probably render their dis coverer equally immortal. From the Medical Times , Sept. 18, 1845. Opposed as we are to modern patent medicines we cannot be silent, to the virtues of Dr. Le Roy’s much lauded discovery. His pills are indeed a purgative which may he taken without a risk or the advice of a physician ; for they produce evacuation without weak ness, and cause energy in the digestive functions with out straining them and thus paving the way for reac ‘ioo and apathy.

Hunt's Merchants' Magazine for August is an interesting number and rich in commercial information. Among is a full ac count of the Tannery of Col. Zadock Pratt, at Prattsville, in the State of New York. It is said to be the largest establishment of the kind in the world. The following extract will fur nish some idea ot the immense scale upon which it is conducted: Ihe Prattsville Tannery, as we have said, luinudtes one ot the most striking examples of individual energy and enterprise which our j country, fruitful as it is in such examples, af i fords. A little more than twenty years ’a«*o, j the district of country in which it stands was a perfect wilderness. Although just back of the well-known Catskill range, and not more than thirty-six miles from the banks of the Hudson, the great thoroughfare of our interior trade, the depths of its hemlock forests, the solitude of its mountain glens, and the flashing of its tumbling brooks, had been explored only by the foot of the hunter, and were as little known to the public as the slopes and valleys of the Rocky Mountains. In 18*24 Col. Pratt visited this district, and, with unerring judgment, at once decided upon it as the proper location.— With a man of Colonel Pratt’s energy, from the conception of a project to its execution is but a single step. With such men to will and to do is one and the same thing. In less than ninety days he had a tannery erected and ready to commence operations. “ This tannery is an immense wooden build, ing, 530 feet inlength, 43 feet in breadth and two stories and a half high. Within this ’area are contained 300 vats, with conductors to draw the liquor to the pump, affording about 40.000 cubic feet of room for tanning purposes A large wing, 40 feet by 80 extending over the stream, contains twelve leaches, six of which have copper heaters, each 28 feet long. The cubic contents of the leaches amount to about 12.000 feet, and also the bark loft, through which, in the course of the year, passes more than six thousand cords ot bark. The mills through which it is grond are capable of grind ing over a cord of bark per hour ; and it has connected with it a pump of sufficient capaci ty to deliver 2,000 cubic feet of‘ooze,’ or water charged with tanning, in thirty minutes. The beam-house contains thirty vats, equivalent to 7,t>40 cubic feet. It has connected with it three hide mills, for softening the dry Spanish hides and two rolling-machines, capable of rolling 500 sides of leather per day. Outside of the building, but connected with the beam-house by an under-ground communication, are eight stone sweat-pits, with pointed arches and flues. The pits are of the most approved size, being in area ten feet by fourteen, and in depth eight feet with a spring of water at one corner. B “ The labor employed, directly or indirectly. may be set down at two hundred men daily. The ramified branches of business and trade that it fosters, the comfort, refinement, and in telligence of which it becomes the centre, and its final influence upon the growth and popu lousness of the surrounding district, cannot be too highly estimated.” Whaling Gun.—We saw yesterday, at the store of Capt. E. W. Gardner, a very curious contrivance for killing whales. It is a short gun, weighing some twenty-five pounds—the stock being of solid brass—from which a har poon is to be fired into the animal. The han dle of the harpoon goes into the barrel of the gun about a foot and a line is fastened to it—of course outside of the gun—by which the whale is to be held. There is also a bomb lance , for the purpose of killing the animal. The instru ment is loaded with powder, and a slow match is led from the magazine, through the handle, to the end which goes into the gun. When the lance is fired into the whale the slow match ignites ; and in about half a minute the fire reaches the powder in the head of the instru ment, which instantly explodes, killing the ani mal outright. At least this is what the article is intended to do. The whole apparatus is cer tainly very ingenious; whether or notit is real ly an improvement on the present mode of kill ing whales, is more than we are able to say. That is a question which must be settled by the whalemen themselves. —Nantucket Inquirer Great Snake. —The Clermont County, O-. hio, people are draining a mill pond on the east fork of the little Miami, for the purpose of get ting at a monstrous snake, some 25 or 30 feet of whose length has been seen by six or seven persons. /O TWO DOLLARS .lo\ PER ANNUM, IN ADVANCE .—i THE tUceklg dijronlck Sentinel, A WHIG- JOURNAL, PRINTED ON A MAMMOTH SHEET, 28 BY 46 INCHES! ! !
