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
i vanic Batteries, Electric and Magnetic machines, &c.,
j are entirely dispensed with, and the mysterious power
of Galvanism applied without any of the objections
which aie 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 injurious, and it was to remedy this radi
cal delect, that this new application was projected,
which, after unceasing toil and perseverance, has been
brought to its present slate 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 slate 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” haring so often failed, anew agent was
greatly needed, which it is confidently belieVed, has
been found in 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
reux, Toothache, Bronchitis, Vertigo, Nervous orSick
Headache, Indigestion, Paralyses, Palsy, Epilepsy,
Pits, Cramp, Palpitation of the Heart, Apoplexy, Stiff
ness of Joints, Spinal Complaints, Lumbago, Neu
ralgia, Nervous Tremors, Dizziness of the Head,
Pains in the dies*, 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 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 bejj
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 thps 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. Full 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.
Tiie Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, Bands,
Garters, Necklaces <fcc.
In some cases of a very severe character and of long
standing, the power as applied by the Galvanic Rings
is not sufficient io arrest the progress of 4i»3ase and
ultimately to restore health. The improved modifica
tion in the Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, &c.,
remedies this objection ; any degree of power that is
required can readily be obtained, and no complaint
i which the mysterious agent of Galvanism can affect, <
will fail to be permanently relieved. These articles
arc adapted to th© waist, arms, wrists, limbs, andles,
or any part of the body, with perfect convenience*
The Galvanic necklaces are used wnTTgreaT'Benelit in
cases of Brcachitis or Affections of the Throat gene
erally; also in cases of Nervous Deafness; and with
almost uniform success as a preventive for Ajmplexy,
Epileptic Fits, and similar complaints.
Cliristie’g 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 advang
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 wrhich 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 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
PNEUMONIC or COUGH BALSAM.--
Fahnestock & Co’s Pneumonic or Cough Bal

cure of obstinate Coughs, Colds, Spitting of Blood,

feel warranted in recommending it as a safe and use

The Water Lot Company.— The Water
Lot Company lias reached the consummation
of six years of severe toil in the completion of
the splendid granite Canal, intended to render
available the vast water-power of the Chatta
hoochee, at Columbus. On Friday, the 14
gates which connect the Canal with the basin
were lor the first time opened, and in 50 mi
nutes the Canal was full. This event marks
an epoch in the history of Columbus. It is the
starting point for a new and important element
in the growth and prosperity of the city.
Messrs. Howard and Echols have erected a
monument to their personal enterprise and
energy which has already lived down the prog
nostications of ruin and failure, in the face of
which the work has been steadily progressing,
and which will give employment to industry
and life and vigor to this city, long after they
shall be gathered to their dust.
This work is of the most substantial charac
ter, and of the following dimensions:
Length of Canal 1100 feet.
Average width* 75 “
Average depth of water 7 “
Thickness of wall 9 “
Average height of eastern wall 14 “
do. do. western wall 10 “
Width of lots 72 “
Length 300 “
The walls are built of granite taken from the
bed of the river and cemented on both sides.
Granite for building factories lies at hand in
profuse abundance.
We give a history of the origin and comple
tion of this important work, with some notice
of the present condition of Manufacturing in
dustry and prospects in this city. No man can
look at the work without a feeling of gratitude
to the boldness and enterprise which has added
such an element of strength to the growing
prosperity of our city, and feeling certain that
such facilities will not long escape the eager
attention of capitalists.
During the session of 1839, the Legislature
of Georgia authorised the Mayor and Council
of this city to dispose of the water within the
corporate limits, and also of the common com
posing Bay-street, with the reservation of 100
feet in width ol the same, throwing all the
ground west of said 100 feet to high water
mark on the western bank of the river, into a
body to be laid off into Water Lots. In pur
suance of this authority, the city caused this
ground to be laid off into thirty-seven lots—all
fronting on Bay-street on the east, and sold
them, under two contract, one in 1840 and one
in 1843, to Messrs. Howard & Echols for SSOOO,
with the condition that they should, within a
specified time,, make the improvements that
have just now been completed. The pur
chasers have, however, built the Canal walls
much higher, and made them much stronger
than their contract required, and have, in addi
tion, cut the waste way by the side of the canal,
a distance of 1,100 feet, through the solid rock,
a large portion of which is from 13 to 15 feet
deep
There is water enough now communicated
by the dam across the River, and the Canal
which connects with it, to drive three hundred
thousand spindles , at the lowest stage of the riv
er. This estimate may probably be full high
for about six weeks in each of two years gone
by, since 1828, to wit: the years of 1839 and
1845. For all other years, the estimate may
be relied on with the fullest confidence.
The fall is seventeen feet and some inches.
The Canal now conducts water through and to
sixteen lot;, and in a few weeks can be extended
to three more when they are needed. In 1845,
Mr. Farish Carter, of Milledgeville, and Doc
tor John Ba'rd, purchased the one-half interest
in the property.
On account of some peculiar advantages
three of the sixteen lots are held at $7,500, and
one at SIO,OOO. The rest at $5,000. Three
lots have been sold for $15,000.
From the waste-way of the Canal there is
another fall of more than 12 feet, and the water
to supply the remaining 18 lots will be taken
from the natural basin, into which the waste
way empties.
It may now be supposed that the city did not
get the lull value of this immense water power.
But it is to be remembered that no one else
would touch it upon the same terms. Indeed,
Messrs. Howard & Echols took hold of it, in
the face of the general prediction that it would
prove a ruinous enterprise. The Mayor and
Council, looking to the future welfare of the
city, very wisely thought it would be better to
give away the property, if, by so doing, they
could render certain the prospect of making
Columbus a manufacturing city. It is also to be
remembered that in addition to the risks of this
enterprise, that the purchasers have expended
$40,000 on the work, and that that sum is to be
taken into the account of the original and pre
sent value of the property. It was thought by
some that the city ought to have undertaken the
work on its own account. But the embarrass
ments of its Treasury rendered this impossible
at the time, and we understand that their Bridge
property was saved from the Sheriff’s hammer
by the timely aid of the $5,000 received from
the purchasers.
One cotton Factory, situated on the Jam, has
been two years in successful operation. A se
cond one of five stories and large dimensions, is
now underway, and the establishment of Messrs.
Winter & Brooks, for sawing, plaining, tongue
ing and grooving, and the m?nufacture of
wooden pails, and various descriptions of wood
en ware, is nearly ready to start.
The passage of the act of 1839, was mainly
owing to the exertions of the Hon. R. B. Alex
ander, then a member of the Legislature, back
ed by Col. J. S. Calhoun. The present Mayor
of the city, Maj. Wiley Williams, and a majori
ty of the City Council, have been the steady ad
vocates of the enterprise, and their sound judg
ment and forecast are now fully vindicated in
the successful completion of the work.
