The undersigned is fully prepared to establish a GRAEPENBERG DEPOT in all places of proper size in S. Carolina and Georgia. Immediate appli 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 fact that THIRTY THOUSAND BOXES OF 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 whether 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 of 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 PILLB. The following complaints yield with cer tainty to their power ; Asthma, ! Gripes, Bilious Complaints, Heartburn, Bowels—deficient action Headache, Catarrh, [in, Hysterics, Constipation, Incontinence of Urine, Cough ol Pregnancy, Indigestion, Costiveness, Jaundice, fLrrhoea, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Menstruation, suppressed Dyspeptic Consumption, or painful, DigeslVm—imperfect, Nervous Disorders, Erysip<?las, Neuralgia, Epilepsy, Paralysis, Fever—low Nervous, In- Rheumatism, termittent, Remittent, Stomach—various dis- Fever and Ague, eases, Fluor Albus, (or Whites,) Whites. Green Sickness, In all chronic complaints the most implicit reliance may be placed. They purge away offensive humors, arrest the progress of disease, and at the same time 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 i 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 on these Pills, They are the only positive cures known, and should be tried by all who suffer from this disease. Price $1 a box. THE GRAEFENBERG EYE LOTION.—For j disorders of the eyes this Lotion has no equal. It is ; compounded upon the most scientific principles, and has performed extraordinary cures. For violent in- j flammation, dimness and failing of the sight, weak- 1 nesses of the eyes, involuntary weeping, foreign sub- j stances in the eye, &c., it is a positive and speedy j cure.

By offering to the public such an article 1 have been liberally patronized, for which I feel grate ful. 1 have warranted all my fine gins. I 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. 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, 1 hope to mqke my gins sell themselves. 1 feel confident in stating that I have made valuable im provements in my fine gins, and that I shall hereafter furnish an improved gin to anything heretofore sold. I would also inform citizens of Warren, Washington, W ilkes, Columbia and Burke counties, that 1 have purchased Simpson’s improvement for band rnachin ery, and those who purchase ray 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 hand wheel, which will he furnished at the lowest possible rate, and which, when used, re duces the draft to an astonishing extent; thecharaoter of the improvement is simply by propelling the ma chinery by a slack band, instead of a light one. My finest Friction Roller Gins are sold at $3 per saw. My plain gins are also greatly improved, and will be sold according to kind, from $2 to $2.50 per saw r . My finest, gins have heretofore sold higher than other gins, and yet, heretofore, 1 have not been able to supply the demand, whilst 1 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. GARRETT T. OGLESBY & BROTHER. Sparta, April 3. Certificate*. Shoales of Ogeechee, Ga., March 17th, 1847. G. T. Oglesby, Esq. Dear Sir: —Below 1 hand my certificate, agreeably to your request, stating pre cisely lire opinion 1 entertain of their superiority over any I have ever seen. 1 have also nht»;— j cefuucaie or mr. iison,our Superintendent and Ma chinist, who is the best judge of the quality ol cotton, as he ‘chews the bag.’ Very respectfully your friend r ul y. Thos. Cheeley. Shoals of Ogeechee, Ga., 1847.—This is to certi fy that I have used two of Mr. G. T. Oglesby’s Anti- Friction Cotton Gins, (the one 60 and the other 45 saws.) for several years, and can truly say they arc superior to any thing of the kind now in use; and form an exception to what is said about this being an age ol 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 now, 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’tand Practical Machinist. Savannah, March 10/fi, 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. Rabun & Fulton. J. L. SwiNNEY. Augusta , February 27th, 1847. —The undersigned Factors and Commission Merchants, take pleasure in 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 $ c. above highest quotations, and in point of durability think they cannot be sur passed. Dye <& Robertson. Sparta, February 15 th, 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, 1 con sider them the most durable gins that 1 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-farmers generally.

S. Gaylord, of Connecticut. All letters addressed to me at Augusta, until the Ist of February, concerning this 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 1 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 I 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 Pounder and j Mr. David Ryan, Sir: I have tried Mr. C. S. ! Gaylord’s Patent Straw Cutter, and am fully satisfied j that in principle and practical utility, it is the best cutter now in use. For durability, ease and speed in its execution, 1 never have seen any that would com- j pare at all with it. I have examined very many j Straw Cutlers and never have seen one that w*ould cut the same amount of straw, hay or corn stalks in a | given time, without requiring from three fourths i more to double the same amount of power that this does. So w’ell 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, 1847.—1 have this day examined Gaylord’s newly patented Straw Cutter, : for sale by Win. B. Vanderford, agent for David Ryan, and gave the same a trial with dry corn stalks, ! rye straw, dry fodder, shucks and hard corn in the ear, with the shuck on: all of which were cut with more speed than by any other cutter I have seen, i without requiring more than the power of one hand. I In fact it is the only cutter I have seen with which 1 shucks can be cut to adv antage, and which fact of it- ! ! self renders it more valuable, in my estimation, than ; any other straw cutter within my knowledge. Samuel Griswold. I saw the above trial on C. S. Gaylord’s Patent i Cutler, and coincide with Mr. Griswold in his opin | ion. A. D. Brown, Machinist. I Mr. Ryan, Dear Sir: We have examined your 1 Gaylord’s Patent Straw, Oats and Shuck Cutter, 1 which patent we bought from you, and do unhesita tingly pronounce it the very best machine ever passed j 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 yon our opinion, to make what use ! you see proper. Respectfully, yours, Charles P. Levy & Co, Machinists, Ocmulgee Foundry, Ga. ! Athene, Ga., Nov. 23, 1647. —This is to say that I have carefully examined and purchased th* right j 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. n3O-wtJl John H.

S. steamer Maria Burt arrival last evening from Vera Cruz, whence she sailed on the sth inst. The news communicated by Capt. Tucker, of the Virginia, and by our own correspondent in regard to this vessel, would appear to be authentic. By the Maria Buit we have received letters 1 and papers from the city of Mexico to the 27 th *ol November. The most interesting matter • relerred to in them is, by lar, the arrests of Worth, Pillow and Duncan. We have, there ! fore, thrown together as speedily as we could, at the late hour our letters came to hand, all the published documents relating to these ar rests. They will be found in another column. There is much new'spaper discussion upon them, for which we have no room 10-da) . It appears that Gen. Tw iggs was to have come down with the train from Mexico, leav ing on the 2d or 3d inst., but in consequence of the arrest of General Worth, he was de tained. The occupation of Mazatian and Guay mas by our naval forces is mentioned elsewhere. From Low er California the dates are to the 3d of October. The Mexicans claim an advan tage over a parly of Americans which landed at Mulege, fought all day, and finally embarked again. The Mexicans claim a victory. We do not well understand tiie affair, but have no idea of their winning victories from our sailors. Our correspondent alludes to a protest by the English Government against forced loans from Lnglish residents in Mexico The ISonh American of »W« ucui nil. has the following anicie on tiie subject: “By the arrival from Queretaro yesterday, a communication was received from the Eng lish Secretary of Legation, Mr. i'hornton, covering a protest from Lord Palmerston, British minister of Foreign Affairs, against the forcible levying of taxes upon Lnglish resi dents in Mexico to support the war w ith the United States. These levies were made some six months since and the English residents petitioned against it. The English Minister of Foreign Atiairs responds in language that will not be mistaken by the Mexican Government." The otiicers of his division have given Gen. Twiggs a splendid dinner. More of it anon. By this arrival we have copious letters from our correspondent in Mexico and in Gen. Pat terson’s tram. Through the detention of the Maria Burt much of the information in them is necessarily anticipated, but there is much be sides entirely new to us. Our correspondent in Mexico gives a kind ofjonrnai of events du ring the month of November. We can only give the latter portion of them to-day, emitting many passages: Special Correspondence of the Picayune. Mexico, Nov. ly, 1847. Something like a revolt has taken place at Chiapas, for the purpose, it is said, of annexing that Slate to Central America. The Governor had sent one of the chief authorities of the place to be tried in Tabasco, as being a conspirator in the movement, and had is sued orders lor him not to return to Chiapas again. The President of the Republic having been informed of this proceeding, instructs the Minister of Relations to say that the Governor of Chiapas lias no right to prevent the man from returning if acquitted. He also thinks there is no occasion to apprehend a revolution in that State. This is not the first time that a revolu tion has been threatened in Chiapas. She was for merly one of the States of Central America, was in cluded within the territory of Mexico when the latter declared her independence, and many of the inhabit ants appear to entertain an affectionate remembrance of her former relations, and a desire to return to them* Yesterday a new paper called the “ Yankee Doo dle’ 5 made its appearance. It is edited by H. R. Courtree, and is, as its name purports, a humorous affair. There are now four papers published in this city in the English language, viz : The American Star, daily, North American, semi-weekly, the Rover and Yankee Doodle, weekly. C. G. Mexico, Nov. 21, 1847. A correspondent of El Monitor, writing from Q,uer etaro, says that the greater part of the Governors of the different States were present at the seal of govern ment, and that with one exception (tt.c Governor of San Luis) they were unanimous in favor of peace. The sess.ons were soon to commence, and President Anaya proposes that no line of policy on the subject should be followed, except such as the States suggest, in order to get at once at the national will. Gen. Bustamente has been nominated by the Su preme Government general-in- chief of the army of reserve, and commander-general of the State. Hia predecessor, Gutierrez, is second in command, and Cortizar next. El Monitor of to-day, commenting upon the an nouncement of Santa Anna, that he had placed him self at the head of an armed force for the purpose of preventing any negotiations for peace while the Ame ricans occupied Mexican territory, discredits the statement, and says that he (Santa Anna) opened the door for negotiations himself, and that if he op|>oses Congress in the consummation of peace, he will be pulling down with one hand what he had constructed with the other. The paragraph appeared in El Pro \ gresso, published in Guanajuato, and i should think ( snßJeWttf ■ power not to be surprised at any measures he might take to secure it. The ordef of the Sons of Temperance has been in stituted here by some members of the Rifle Regiment, i It is called the “ Walter Childs’s Division, 55 and their address has been published. Aor. 23. —The Star of this morning publishes the | celebrated letter of “ Veritas, ” from the Washington i Union. It is universally befteved here that. “ Veri tas 55 must be a twin brother of “ Leonidas, 35 if he be not one and the same person. It would be hard to cram more false statements in the same space than are to be found in these two letters. The news from Queretaro is uninteresting to-diV. On the 18th two senators were elected, the Deputies irom each State casting the vote of the Slate, and ihe result was that Elioriaga received twelve votes and was declared elected first Senator. Cumplido had ; three votes and three scattering. For second Senator Ibarra received all but three votes, Gen. Herrera had been attacked by a new disease, and it was thought he would- not survive. This is a matter of regret to all well-wishers of Mexico. News had been received at j Q,ueretaro by express that the Americans had taken , possession of the port of Mazatian with four ships of war. It appears to be generally credited, and EL ’ .Monitor says it aggravates “in an extraordinary manner our desperate situation. ” Government has : issued a circular asking resources from the ! Rosa continues to discharge the duties of Secretary of Ihe Treasury, and there appears to be some difficulty , in tilling the vacancy. Gamboa had brought forward his charges of treason agaimt Santa Anna in anew form, and Otero had also impeached Romero on ac count of his proceedings as Minister of Justice towards the growers of tobacco. Santa Anna’s partisans were ! busy at the capital working against President Anaya, and clamoring for the restoration of their chief to the command ofthe army. The President, however, does not appear to heed them, and some of his late nomina tions are especially distasteful to them —Rosa is par ticularly the object of their hatred. By the last news from Chihuahua 1 see that they apprehend another invasion oflhal State by the Ame ricans. The Governor writes that he is prepared to meet the “detested invaders.” Os course he is.— Another marauding party of Indians had made their appearance in Durango, armed with rifles and pikes. Speculation has been rife here for two or three days back, as to the purport of the despatches brought to
