But this Ordinance shall not apply to the Justices of the Peace, who shall be elected at such time as shall be provided for by the first General Assembly until otherwise provided by law.” 11. As by the provisions of said Ordinance the Commanding General is requested to cause certificates of election to be issued to those per sons who may be elected to said offices, and that he may not be called upon to cause certifi cates of election to be issued to persons iueligi ble to hold office, he calls the attention of all concerned to the provisions of Sec. 3 of the amendment to tlie Constitution of the United States, proposed by Congress and designated as the 14th Article, which section he deems, un der the reconstruction acts, applicable to the election of officers provided lor by said Ord inance, and is as follows: “Sec. 3. No person shall lie Senator or Repre sentative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or mili tary under the United States, or under any State, who having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State Legislature, or as any executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in in surrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or eomfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds oi each House, remove such disability.” Attention is also called to the 6th section of the Supplementary Reconstruction Aet of Con gress, which passed July l’Jth, 1867, in which it is declared that “the words ‘executive or judicial office in any State’ shall he construed to include all civil offices created by law for the administration of any general law of a State, or for t he administration of justice.” 111. The following are the officers to lie elected at the approaching election in the State of Georgia, under the provisions of the forego ing Ordinance aud the Aet of Congress author izing the election, to-wit: A Governor of the State, Senator., and Repre sentatives in .the General Assembly, and for each county in the State a Clerk of the Superior Court, Ordinary, Sheriff, Tax Collector, Tax Receiver, Treasurer, Coroner, and Surveyor.

PROFESSOR ROBERTS, LATE OF NEW Orleans) uud Memphis, the great Magnetic Healer, will treat all manner of Diseases and Afflictions, not incurable, at the AUGUSTA HOTEL, August*, Ga., until May Ist, 1808. By Animal Magnetism we claim that the dis eased aud deranged action of tlie nervous and yaculaf systems are restoied to a perfect equilib rium much more readily Mum by any other means known to the medical world, either in the present or the past ages. ‘ Nature must do the healing, ’’ is the saying of every sensible and honest physi cinti, and that “all we can do in caso of sickness is to aid Nature. ’ This Prof. Roberts aims to do by the great science of Animal Magnetism, and that, too, without drugs! It is tlie only system of the medication that has God as its authority and example, or that can be sustained by science or common sense. Consultation tree. Letters to be answered must boaccompauied with a stamp. For testimonials seo or send for circular. Prof. Roberts treats successfully the following named diseases, together with many other forms of human maladies not herein specified, viz: All diseases of the Brain, Rheumatism, Nervous Debility, Neuralgia, Weak Spin**, Curvature of the Spiue, Inflamed Soro Eyes, Paralysis, Weak Eyes, Partial Blindness, Dropsical Tumors,Ulcers, Scrofula in its varied forms, Consumption, Dia betes, Weakness of tlie Limbs, Bronchitis, Lossof Voice, Palpitation of tlie Heart, Diseases of the Liver, Kidneys, aud Bowels, Dyspepsia, Falling of tlie Womb, Suppressed Metises, Cathrrh, all kinds ol Sexual Diseases, Impurities of the Blood, etc., etc. Paralysis and Deafness are the most uncertain of all diseases to cure, although patients afflicted even with these terrible maladies will be more oi-less benefitted, if not cured, by Magnetic Treatment.

This is to corlily that 1 have been paralyzed in both iny legs and left arm since .Inly, 1860. 1 have been attended by different medical Doctors of this city, without deriving any benefit from their treat ment, but on the contrary, seemed to grow worse. When Professor Roberts arrived Imre 1 was ad vised to visit him, at the Augusta Hotel, which I did. It required the assistance' of three men to take me up the stairs of tlie ITotel to Dr. Roberts’ rooms. I have taken tlie twelfth treatment at the hands ot tlie Professor, and have been so far re Hcved as to be able to use my arm as well as I ever did, and with as much power, and rati walk a con siderable distance wit,lt case, and find my general health very much improved.

All the medicine I had taken seemed to make me worse, and I never had any relief uutil I was treated magnetically. People nniy laugh ; but I have no more rheumatic pains that’s so. I work in the Augusta Hotel. (Signed| NANCY MASON. Augusta, Ga., March 30, IS6S. In Jane, 1867, I was residing in Memphis, T'enn. I have been suffering from Piles for twenty-eight years, tho last eight of which I had been almost unfitted for business of any kind, and had no hope of a cure. A nephew of mine had suffered fifteen years with tho same complain I; ho j wont to Philadelphia, was four months under Dr. Pancbst; submitted to an operation with the knife, and was finally cured, for which ho paid one thousand dollars, besides his expenses to and from Philadelphia. I called on Professor Roberts and received three treatments, by Animal Mag noticism, at his hands, and was entirely cured, and am well; yet, for which I paid twenty dol lars. 1 would not to-day be placed again in the condition you found me ten months ago, and with as little hope oi a cure as I had before your three treatments, for twonty thousand dollars.

Ex Del Corruption from the Body So swift is this remedy in entering into the eireulation, that it hat hem detected in the blood and urine in six minutes after it has been taken. 1 BETTER THAN 10 It. R. R. Resolvent cures with astonishing rapidity every form of Chronic, Scrofulous and Skin Diseases, and exterminates all corruption from the human system. | .. One bottle of Dr. Radway’s Renovating Re solvent contains more of the active curutivo i principles of the best Jamaica Sarsaparilla, i (Sarsaparillian,) than Ten of the largest size . bottles of the mixture sold under the name of Sarsaparilla. Tho process adopted by Dr. Radway in securing extracts (prepared in vacuo,) of Medicinal Roots, Plants, Herbs, and other vegetables possessing great curative proper ties over Scrofula, Chronic, Syphilitic aud all skin diseases, that enters into the com position of the Renovating Resolvent, pro duces only ONE OUNCE of the pure extract out of 20 lbs. of the crude roots. The Inert matter that enters so generally in the large bottle mixtures and prepared under the offi cinal or pharmacopeia formula, is, by Dr. Eadway’s process, cast aside as rubbish.'* One teaspoonful of the Resolvent is suffi cient for a dose for all Skin Diseases, Salt Rheum, Pimples, Blotches, Sores and Erup tions of tho Skin, Humors in tho Blood, &c. One tcaspoonful, three times per day, will, in a few days, make the Blood pure, the Skin clear, the Eyes bright, the Complexion smooth and transparent, the Hair strong, and remove all Sores, Pimples, Blotches, Pustules, Tet ters, Cankers, &c., from the Head, Face, Neck, Mouth and Skin. It is pleasant to take, and the dose is small. dS The first dose that is taken seizes on lho disease and commences its work of resolving away all diseased deposits, Purifying the Blood, and driving corruption from the system. The Renovating Resolvent, if used in any of the following named complaints, will posi tively cure the patient: Skill Diseases, Caries of the Doncs, SRumors in (lie Rlood, Constitutional, CSironie aint Scrofulous Diseases, Scrofula, Syphilis, Fever Sores, Ulcers, Stilt Kiicutn, Erysipelas, Kick, els, Scnh!

The annual reports of the Health Com missioners of different cities, show a great increase of deaths from diseases of tiie Kid neys and Urinary Organs—RADWAY’S RENOVATING RESOLVENT is the only remedy that has dissolved calculous concretion". Its SOI.VENT, diuretic, lithontriptic and tonic properties exceed that of any medi cine in the world: it readily assimilates with the fluids, and promotes their exit through the Kidneys, Ureter and Bladder, removing calculous obstructions, and correcting all de rangements of these organs. ( No swift is this remedy in passing into tnecir eulation, that it has been deteete<l in the urine in six minutes after it has been taken ; by adding t o tho liquid when cold a few pieces of starch, then a few drops of nitric acid, the liquid will change to a blue color. When brick dust, or a thick white deposit, like the white of an egg, (albumen,) is detected in the ves sel, or bloody discharges from the urethra, or micturating in drops, accompanied by a burning or scalding pain—the RESOLVENT should bo used, and R. R. RELIEF rubbed on the spine. &c. RADWAY’S PILLS being an aperient, soothing, and tonic laxative, are the only purgative medicine safe to administer in these difficulties; their mild, soothing and healing properties produce evacuations with out irritating the mucous membranes of the bowels, kidneys, ureter, bladder, Ac., or causing straining when at stool. . - Price of Resolvent, $1 per bottle, or 6 for |6.
