G-raefenberg Company's Office. I
50 BROADWAY,
NEW YORK.—This is
to certify that Mr. Geo.
A |/'A Brainerd, of the State
°f Georgia, is duly ap
/c-j i* ’pointed the General Agent
I t * l * s Company in and
I J jfor tlie States of South
in, and to grant rights to
vend the Company’s Me
dicines. Eveiy Agent
must have a certificate with the seal of the Company
thereunto, signed by its Secretary and countersigned
by the aforesaid General Agent. No one is author
ised to sell the Company’s Medicines without such
certificate. EDWARD BARTON, Sec’y.
GRAEFENBERG MEDICINES.
The undersigned is fully prepared to establish a
GRAEFENBERG DEPOT in all places of proper
in S. Carolina a rut Georaria Luamedialp annli
cation should be made, personally or by letter, to
George Brainerd, Agent, care of Nelson Carter,
opposite Charleston Hotel. As there will ordinarily
be but one Depot in a town or village, the agency
will be very valuable.
The celebrated Medicines of the Graefenberg Com
pany are rapidly and completely superseding all oth
ers. Where once introduced, no one thinks of using
any others. Their character is best explained by the
fad that THIRTY THOUSAND BOXES OP
THEIR PILLS ALONE are sold each and every
week.
Certificates upon certificates from all parts of the
country are constantly received, testifying to their
wonderful powers. Their efficacy is almost imme
diately felt, so that a single box will show the invalid
w hether they are or are not doing him good. The
sick should at once abandon all other medicines and
give these Pills a fair trial.
The operations of the company throughout the
world are of unprecedented magnitude, the high and
commanding character of which has received the un
qualified approbation ot distinguished Clergymen,
Jurists, Philanthropists, and the public generally.
The Patent Medicine business is assuming an entirely
new position through the Graefenberg Company.
Almost every family in the land has occasion to use
some kind of patent medicine, and an organization
like that of this company is of paramount public im
portance. By this means, reliable medicines may be
had.
The leading article to which public attention is in
vited is THE GRAEFENBERG VEGETABLE
PILLS. The following complaints yield with cer
tainty to their power:
Asthma, I Gripes,
Bilious Complaints, Heartburn,
Bowels—deficient action Headache,
Catarrh, [in, Hysterics,
Constipation, Incontinence of Urine,
Cough of Pregnancy, Indigestion,
Costiveness, * Jaundice,
Harrhoea, Liver Complaint,
Dyspepsia, Menstruation, suppressed
Dyspeptic Consumption, or painful,
Digestion —imperfect, Nervous Disorders,
Erysipelas, Neuralgia,
Epilepsy, Paralysis,
Fever low Nervous, In- Rheumatism,
termittent, Remittent, Stomach—various dis-
Fever and Ague, eases,
riuorniuuß, roi » uiu»,j «. mu-.
Green Sickness,
In all chronic complaints the most implicit reliance
may be placed. They gprgeaway offensive humors,
arrest the progress of disease, and at the same time
restore tone and vigor to the system.
Cancers, Tic Doloreux, Low Spirits, Worms, &c.,
yield to their power. Price 25 cents a box.
The names of the other medicines are as follows:
THE CHILDREN’S PANACEA. —This medicine
should be in every family throughout the world. It
is sovereign in all diseases to which children and
youth are subject. For summer complaints, dysen
tery, and all other affections of the stomach and bowels,
it is infallible. Price 50 cents a bottle, with ample
directions.
THE GREEN MOUNTAIN VEGETABLE
OINTMENT. —Wherever inflammation exists, this
Ointment is a positive and unfailing remedy. Price
25 and 50 cents a box.
THE GRAEFENBERG FEVER AND AGUE
PILLS. —The most implicit reliance may be placed j
on these Pills. They are the only positive cures j
known, and should be tried by all who suffer from
this disease. Price SI a box.

"COTTON GINS!
IMPROVED ON WHAT WAS BEFORE
CONSIDERED PERFECT,
1H AVE 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 1 feel grate
ful. 1 have warranted all my fine gins. 1 have never
had one returned as not coming up to what I promised.
It is known I have, and do promise that my gins make
superior cotton. 1 have no travelling agents. 1 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 1 have made valuable im
provements in my fine gins, and that I shall hereafter
furnish an improved gin to anything heretofore sold.
1 would also inform citizens of Warren, Washington,
W ilkes, 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 33 per saw.
My plain gins are also greatly improved, and will
be sold according to kind, from 32 to 32.50 per
saw\ My finest gins have heretofore sold higher than
other gius, and yet, heretofore, I have not been able to
supply the demand, whilst I have been unable to sell
but few plain gins.
Orders or letters, addressed to me at Sparta, will be
promptly attended to, and gins delivered at purchasers’
residences, free of charge.

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. Thomas Cheeley.
Brothers' Factory , Shoals of Ogeechee, Ga.-March
17th, 1847. —This is to certify that one of G. T.
Oglesby’s 60 saw Anti-Friction Cotton Gins is nowj
and has been in use for the last fourteen months at
this place, and I can say with confidence that it is the
best article of the kind that I have yet seen.
B. J. Wilson, Super’t and Practical Machinist.
Savannah, .March 10 th, 1847.—The undersigned,
during the past season, have frequently noticed the
superiority ot 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. Rabun & Pulton.

recommending to the planters generally, G. T. Ogles
by & Brother’s improved make of gins, and do not
hesitate to say that the cotton ginned on them is equal
to any received in this market, and in every instance
commands from an J to 4 c. above highest quotations,
and in point of durability think they cannot be sur
passed. Dye & Robertson.
Sparta, February Vbth, 1847.—This is to certify,
that I have owned one of Mr. Oglesby’s improved
cotton gins for two years, and can safely recommend
his gins for two reasons. The first, that they do not
cut the lint or staple as other gins. The next, I con
sider them the most durable gins that I have ever
used. M. G. Harris.
February 20 th, 1847. —We do certify, that we
have used for the last two years Mr. G. T. Oglesby’s
Anti-Friction Gins, and are decidedly of the opinion
that they are the best gins now in use in this State,
both for the fineness of the cotton and their durability,
and take great pleasure in recommending them to our
brother-fanners generally. Richard P. Sasnett.

GAYLORD’S PATENT CUTTER.
lAM NOW TRAVELLING THROUGH
THIS STATE for the purpose of disposing of
country rights for the best OAT, SHUCK and CORN
STALK CUTTER in the United States—being that
patented by C. S. Gaylord, of Connecticut. All
letters addressed to me at Augusta, until the Ist of
February, concerning thia machine, will receive
prompt attention.
I subjoin a few of the many certificates in my pos
session for the purpose of showing the high estimation
in which Gaylord’s Patent is held here, and where it
is best known. WM. B. VANDERFORD,
Agent for David Ryan.
CERTIFICATES :
Mr. David Ryan, Dear Sir; In reply to yours of
the 23d ultimo, inquiring the success of Gaylord’s
Patent Cutting Machine, the right of which for this
town and county I bought from you, I have only to
say that I have made but some four or five, and they
have been universally approved of. Had 1 not been
engaged in the manufacture of more heavy work I
should have made more, as I intend to do, regarding
them as the ne plus ultra of cutting machines.
.‘""' iron Koumief aiaS
Mr. David Ryan, Sir: I have tried Mr. C. S.
Gaylord’s Patent Straw Cutter, and am fully satisfied
that in principle and practical utility, it is the best
cutter now in use. For durability, ease and speed in
its execution, I never have seen any that w'ould com
pare at all with it. I have examined very many
Straw Cutters and never have seen one that would
cut the same amount of straw, hay or corn stalks in a
given time, without requiring from three fourths
more to double the same amount of power that this
does. So well satisfied am lof the practical utility
of the machine that I have contracted with the
Patentee for the privilege of building them, and am
now making preparations to build large quantities.
Yours, truly, Franklin Seelye, Machinist.
Clinton, Ga., June nth, 1547. —I have this day
examined Gaylord’s newly patented Straw Cutter,
for sale by Wm. B. Vanderford, agent for David
Ryan, and gave the same a trial with dry corn stalks,
rye straw, dry fodder, shucks and hard com in the
ear, with the shuck on : all of which were cut with
more speed than by any other cutter 1 have seen,
without requiring more than the power of one hand.
In fact it is the only cutter I have seen with which
shucks can be cut to advantage, and which fact of it
self renders it more valuable, in my estimation, than
a.ny other straw cutter within my knowledge.
Samuel Griswold.
1 saw the above trial on C, S. Gaylord’s Patent
Cutter, and coincide with Mr. Griswold in his opin
ion. A. D. Brown, Machinist.
Mr. Ryan, Dear Sir; We have examined your
Gaylord’s Patent Straw, Oats and Shuck Cutter,
which patent we bought from you, and do unhesita
tingly pronounce it the very best machine ever passed
under our notice. In fact, we consider the machine
itself perfect, an article that has been long wanted in
our State. It is almost impossible to get it out of
order; any negro that can grind an axe, can grind the
blade. So perfect is the machine that we are con
strained to give you our opinion, to make what use
you see proper. Respectfully, yours,
Charles P. Levy & Co,
Machinists, Ocmulgee Foundry, Ga.
Athene, Ga., Nov. 23, 1847. —This is to say that
I hare carefully examined and purchased the right
of the cutting machine, for which Mr. Ryan has a
patent, and take pleasure in saying that it is far su
perior to any thing of the kind that I have ever seen.

CHRONICLE & SENTINEL.
LEGISLATURE OF GEORGIA.
Things in Milled gevllle.
| Correspondence of the Chronicle and Sentinel.
In Senate Dec. 30,
Ihe Senate met this morning pursuant to
adjournments —
Mr. Hunt offered u resolution that the Gov-
eruor he requested to communicate to the Sen
-1 ate the correspondence between Gov. McDon
ald and certain stockholders of the Bank of Da
rien, in relation to the transfer of the assets of
’ said Bank to the Central Bank ; and also the
5 correspondence of Gov. McDonald with Davis,
3 Brooks &. Co. of New-York, in reference to
the Bank notes held by them on the Bank of
> Darien, and the contract by which a large a
t mount of the notes of the Bank was transferred
to said company.
By Mr. Stapleton : A bill to amend the penal
r code so far as relates to Faro tables,
j The Senate then proceeded to take up bills
r for a third reading, when the following House
1 bills were passed ;
1 The bill to compel persons owning and hold
ing lands or negroes in any county in the State,
> and not residing therein, to give in and pay tax
for the same in said county.
Also, the bill to incorporate the Athens and
Clarksville Railroad Company.
Also, the bill to amend the 12th section of the
1 act of 1845, organizing the Supreme Court.
Also, the bill to define lability of the Re
r Dr«B«niiitw OB «r deceased copartners in certain
e cases.
- The bill to amend the militia laws of this
I © I ?S A r as , lost; a,so tbe 10 appropriate
S|>2UUU for laying out and constructing a road
across Lookout Mountain. So the good peo
ple of Dade will have to remain cooped up till
’ another Legislature convenes, if not longer.
. You will remember that this bill was passed in
the House some days ago, after considerable
[ opposition. Walled up on either hand, as are
the people of Dade, by the Lookout and Ra
coon Mountains, it becomes necessary for them
when they desire to visit the adjacent counties,
to go out at the Northern or Southern end of
the valley which their county embraces, either
into Tennessee or Alabama, and thence back in
to Georgia. Under such circumstances, unless
there is an appropriation made at no very dis
tant day, I think they would he justifiable in
seceding fiom the State and forming for them
selves a separate Republic, to be known as the
State of Dade !
I should not omit to say that the bill to estab
lish a Botanical Medical Board of Physicians in
this State, and for the better regulation of the
Thompsonian practice, was passed. I am in
formed that this bill produced an amusing de-
Waters opposed it on the ground that it pro
hibited any one from practicing under that sys
tem without first obtaining a diploma. He de
sired to remove all restrictions and to permit
every body to practice who desired to do so.—
There w ere a great many people who ought to
be killed any how, and that would be as good
away as any. A very good idea.
Mr. Dunagan was also opposed to the bill.
He believed that no particular qualifications
should be prescribed whether the applicant
belonged to the Mineral or the Thompsonian
school. He was opposed to any law which
made it necessary for a man to have a “ diplo
my" before he could practice. “ Hoicbeever,’’
the bill was passed.
The regular order was suspended, when Mr.
Hunt offered a resolution, requesting the
Judges of the Supreme Court to report defects
in the existing laws of this State and apian for
simplifying and digesting the same, to the next
Legislature. Agreed to.
House of Representatives.
Mr. Glenn offered a resolution this morning,
to limit the time that a member shall be allow
ed to speak on any one question to fifteen mi
nutes. I think it will be difficult to enforce
this rule, for there are certain members labor
ing under cacoethes loquendi, whose desire to
speak is like a circle—without an end. But
more of this when we shall have seen how the
rule operates.
Mr. Nesbit offered a resolution that the quali
fied voters in the several Judicial districts shall
at the next October election, elect each a dele
gate to meet at this place, for the purpose of
fixing the places of hoidingthe Superior Court,
and for equalizing the labors of the Superior
Court Judges.
The House next took up the special order
ofto-day—to wit; the general lax bill for the
years 1848-49, and was engaged in its conside
ration until 6 o’clock this evening, without
coming to a final vote. More of this to-mor
row.
Tho House met to-night and passed the fol
lowing bills :
w (UI.OI aim aumiiu um J.
the Superior Courts for Telfair, Irwin and Pu
laski.
Also, the bill to authorize the Inferior Court
of Elbert county to pay teachers of the Poor
School in said county, all arrearages due for
the years 1839-’4O, and for the years 1844, ’45,
and ’46.
Also the bill to incorporate the city of Dal
ton. An amendment was offered to make all
the towns, villages, cross-roads and groceries
where more than one kind ofliquor is kept, so
many cities, which was agreed to. Henceforth
the words towns, villages, &c,, must he abol
ished ; it will be, the city of Sandtown, the city
of Jughandle, the city of Dogsboro! Ah, how
“we apples swim I” Augusta, Savannah, Ma
con and Columbus *‘ may hide their diminished
heads with shame f”
The bill authorizing the Muscogee Railroad
Company to issue bondsto the amount of $350,-
000, and the Macon and Western Company to
endorse the same, was also passed.
There were some forty or fifty other bills of
a local character disposed of, and a large num
ber of Senate bills read the first time.
To-morrow evening the Governor's Levee
comes off. P. W. A.
