ICONOGRAPHIC ENCYCLOPAEDIA OP SCIENCE. LITERATURE AND ART; Systematically arranged by g. Heck, with F'ive Hundred Steel Engravings, by the most distinguished Artists of Germany. The text translated and Edited by Spencee P. Baikd, A. M. M. D.. Professor of Natural Sciences in Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa. prospectus. The Iconographic Encyclopaedia will embrace (in a series of 500 Quarto Steel Engravings and upwards of 2000 pages of ietter-press in large 8vo.) all the branches of human knowledge which can be illustra ted by pictorial representations, viz: I.—Mathematics; II. —Natural and Medical Sciences; 111. —Geography; IV. —Ethnology ; V.—Military Sciences ; VI. —Naval Sciences ; . Vll.—Architecture ; VIII. — Mythology, dbc.; IX —The Pine Arts , X.—Technology, with all their respective sub divisions. The work will be published in 25 monthly port folios, each containing 20 Engravings and eighty pages of Letter press. PRICE ONE DOLLAR EACH PART! Subscriptions taken for the whole Work only. As the different departments of science, from their varying natures, will demand more or less detailed explanations in Letter-press, eighty pages of text will not always be sufficient to explain thoroughly the rep resentations of twenty engravings, whilst in other in stances less than that space will be required. Thus the explanatory text belonging to 20 plates, but ex ceeding eighty pages, will be furnished with the fol lowing 20 plates, so that at the end of the work text and plates will run together, and form a complete manual of the enumerated sciences, with a full col lection of pictorial illustrations, executed on steel with the greatest care and accuracy. It having been deemed of great importance to unite the greatest possible cheapness with beauty and in trinsic value, the great expense of re-engraving the plates has been avoided, and a contract made to se cure good impressions, taken under the immediate supervision of Mr. Heck, the original framer of the work, from the highly finished German plates; and the specimens now before the public will prove that they could not have been produced in this country at less than double the price for which they are now offered. A small proportion of the 500 Engravings consti tuting the whole work (about 50, representing As tronomy and Geography) have inscriptions (chiefly astronomical and geographical names) in the German Language, which could not have been altered except at very great expense. This circumstance, will, how ever, in no way interfere with the perfect clearness of the matter represented, as the accompanying English text, referring strictly to the designs of the plates, gives every explanation required. Besides, a full glossary of all foreign words occurring on the plates will be issued at the end of the work for the benefit of those who wish to make themselves acquainted with the several names and expressions. Indexes and tables of contents will be issued with the last part of the work, adapting it to practical use, and facilitating reference to any of the branches of science it embraces. Subscriptions may be addressed to any bookseller in the United States, or by letter direct to RUDOLPH GARRIGUE, Publisher, 2 Barclay-street, Astor House, N. Y., .

W. lIUFE LAND’S COMPOUND ETHERIAL SYRUP OF TAR. a certain cure for Coughs , Colds, Asthma,Night Sweats, Spitting of Blood, Bronchitis , Pain in the Side and Breast , Sore Throat , Influenza, and all diseases of the Chest and Dungs , which so often lead to CONSUMPTION# This preparation is a combination ofsimple remedies, very palatable, perfectly safe and speedy in its effects, affording such relief by the first dose as to satisfy those suffering, that it is only necessary to continue its use to perfect a cure. This ar ticle is prepared by a Ger man Chemist, from an old and val uable Ger man recipe; it has been used with great success by a large portion of the Medical Faculty, and is highly ap proved bv them. To public speakers the Compound Syrup of Tar I is invaluable, rendering the voice clear and strong. No remedy has ever been offered to the public before which has effected so many cures and had so exten sive a sale ; hundreds of certificates could be procured if it was thought necessary, of its having effected some of the moat wonderful cures on record, but the proprietor intends to have it sell upon its own merits. Be sure and inquire for Dr. W. Hufeland's Com pound Syrup of Tar, as there are preparations bear ing a similar na me, which may be palmed off as Dr. Hufelaud’s. Price 50 cents per Bottle.

RICHARDS <fc SON. Cotton ©ins, IMPROVED COTTON GINS. OWING ;o the almost unparalleled satisfaction which their GINS have given, particularly those of last year, the subscribers are induced to call the attention of the planters of Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina to their FACTORY IN NEWTON COUNTY, and request a continuance of their patronage. No better guarantee of the excellence of their Gins is needed than their wide circulation, and the expressed satisfaction of some of the most experienced and ex tensive planters and Cotton buyers of Georgia. As to the workmanship, material and performance of their Gins, they are willing to back many of their purchasers in saying that there are none superior in the United States. Their Gins are on the improved plan, possessing several essential improvements this year over those of the last season. Every exertion is made by expe rienced and skillful mechanics to render them conve nient and durable. Their travelling agents, who will be constantly passing through the various sections of the country, are authorized to sell on the most accom modating terms. The Gins will be delivered at the purchaser’s resi dence free of charge, and its performance warranted, if the directions which accompany each Gin are fol lowed. 13* All orders directed to the subscribers at Cov ington, Ga., will be promptly attended to mlB-ly HENDERSON & ENRIGHT. IMPROVED COTTON GINS AND PATENT THRESHING MACHINES. THE SUBSCRIBER would inform the Plant ers of Georgia, that he continues to manufac ture COTTON GINS on his improved plan, at his Factory in Morgan county. His Gins are well known and universally approved throughout Georgia, and a portion of South Carolina. They are made of the best materials, and no expense will be spared to make them durable and convenient. The very large sales he has made for the last few years is sufficient gua rantee of the excellence of his work. His Gins will be sold on the most liberal terms, and delivered at the purchasers’ residence, and warranted to perform well, if used according to directions. He is also manufacturing PATENT THRESUINGMACHINES, on a plan entirely new in the Southern country, and far superior to any now in use; they will do about three times the work of the common Thresher, and thresh the straw much cleaner. They are run with common Gin Gearing, or with horse power, for threshing-in the field. With good attention, they will thresh 20 bushels of Wheat or 25 bushels of Oats per hour, and are not subject to get out of repair. Con tracts may be made with my travelling or local Agents for my Gins or Threshers, or by ordering them direct from me. JOSEPH WINSHIP. Madison, Feb. 15, 1849. fel9 OGLEBY’S COTTON GINS. STILL improving: WE STILL CONTINUE to manufature Cotton Gins ofthe very finest order. For sev eral years past we have been able to sell all the fine Friction Roller Gins at $3 per saw, which we could make, without the aid of a travelling agent. We have made the gins, and the gins, or rather the cot ton ginned by them, have sold others as fast as we could make them. We have not been content in be ing able to sell, but it has been our aim to continue to improve. Each year the demand has increased, and as our fine gins have been used, we think we can af firm the planter has realized increased profits. It has been truly said that the finest article of cotton ever offered in the Savannah market has been raised Hancock county. The crops of several individ uals have been esteemed of this character. Some have had offers for their entire crop, to be grown , at the highest prices, and in every instance our gins have been used to produce this line article. When cotton is low £ cent, per lb. in price tells in a moderate crop. We think we can safely affirm that in every instances where planters have managed their crops neatly and ginned on our gins, they have received the very highest market value —in many instances £ cent, over the highest market price. It has been said by some persons, interested in essening the character of our gins, that they do not stand as high in Hancock county as they have done. We should think this a great mistake, from the fact of an increased demand in the county. We know many opposed buying at first on account of the price, but we are assured from the increased sale and from gratuitous commendations of our gins, that the far mers are beginning to view it good economy to buy ol us. We are also seldom able to sell a common gin, which we make as low as other gin-makers. Our last year’s gins have given even greater satisfaction than any we have ever made before. We will deliver to purchasers, at $3 per saw, our fine Friction-Roller Gins ; or common kind from $2 to $2.50, as in qual ity. All communications will be immediately an swered. G. T. OGLEBY & BROTHER. Sparta, April 3d, 1848. CERTIFICATES • Sparta, April 3d, 1848. —We have bought and used the fine Friction-Roller Gins made by G. T. Ogleby & Brother. His gins possess great durabil ity ; the workmanship is of the very finest order. The cotton ginned by them, as to quality, has met our most sanguine expectations, and has in every instance come up to what he has promised. As we have been enabled to realize prices higher than from common gins, we think it is economy to buy his fine gins. Thos, M. Turner, John T. Berry, Charles R. Knowles, Wilson Bird, John P.

Savannah , April 18, 1848. —The undersigned can say with much confidence that the best upland cot tons they have seen during the past season, were from planters who use Gins manufactured by G. T.

Augusta, April 15, 1848. —We take pleasure in saying that the cotton cleaned on Messrs. G. T. Ogleby & Brother’s Gins is equal in every respect to anything we have seen, and cheerfully, and with confidence, recommend them to the planters of Geor gia and the adjoining States, feeling assured they will give satisfaction. We would also remark that for durability and finish, we have seen none that surpass them, and but few,their equal. Heard & Davison, J. C. Dawson, ap!B Dye & Robertson.

M.D. Illustrated with NUMEROUS Et-EOANT and costlt Engravings. TERMS:—ONE DOLLAR PER ANNUM. IN ADVANCE. On the first of January, 1850, the first number of the Eighth Volume of the SOUTHERN CULTI VATOR will be issued. In sending forth another Prospectus, it is deemed unnecessary to make any new promises. If seven years of continued, unflag ging, earnest effort to improve and advance the Agri culture of the South have not sufficiently established the character of the work, nothing that can be said on this occasion will contribute to such a result. The Publisher desires that his future efforts in that great and noble cause shall be judged by his past. It is his purpose to make the Cultivator equal, in every respec to what it is now ; what the planters of the South want —a medium for the communication of the thoughts and opinions of practical men, that they may successfully teach each other whatever is important to thei interests and their profession. P/anters of the South!—the future destiny of the Sou thern Cultivator is committed to your keeping and care. You, and you alone, can sustain it, and as it is exclusively devoted to your interests, your aid is confidently invoked. If you deem it worthy a generous and liberal support, iet it not suffer for* the want of that support. If it is of value, it should be in the hands of every man who boasts the proud vo cation of tilling the soil; and the Publisher looks to his friends and the friends of the work to aid him in extending its circulation. It will be published monthly, us heretofore, on fine paper, in quarto form, each number containing SIX TEEN PAGES of closely printed mailer, 9 by 12 inches square, forming a volume in the course of the year of 192 pages —with a complete Index.
