Chancellor LIPSCOMB gives his testi
mony in the following terms:
CsiVKitstTY or Georgia, 1
Nov. 14 th, 1S««. j
“I bnve examined with great care the
Goodrich Series of School Readers, edited
by Noble Butler, A. M. I consider these
Readers admirably adapted to secure the
end for which they have been prepared.
The selections are judicious, and tho ar
rangement is excellent. Reading is here
presented as an art; the consecutive meth
ods of instruction are thoroughly exhibited,
while tho principles of correct and elegant
Reading, with the illustrations that em
body them, arc so happily introduced, that
easy and natural progress may be made. I
am particularly pleased with tho NEW
SIXTH READER. This work has pecu
liar merits. It combines, in an eminent de
gree. tho best features of our most pbiio
losphie systems of Elocutionary Reading ;
and, apart from its other recommendations,
is especially worthy of the attention of
Teachers on the ground of its eclectic value.
I shall introduce the New Sixth Reader into
the Elocutionary Department of this Uni
versity. A. A. LIPSCOMB,
Chan cellor.”
“Rutlor’s Grammars impress mo very
favorably. So far as I have been able to
examine them, they strike me as very suc
cessful efforts to adapt the subject of Gram
mar to young minds. They teach the pupil
how to tbiuk in the study of Grammar; and
as most Grammars fail at this point, I can
very fully commend these books to the at
tention of Teachers.
A. A. LIPSCOMB,
Chancellor.”
Wo could append tho endorsement of
these rare Books from all the important
Teachers in the City of Augusta, who will
h-reafter use thorn exclusively in their
schools.

Opinions of the Press, Clergy, Ete.
We trill vcthe a few short ertrarts from
the many Testimonials tve have received from
time to time, unsolicited.
From Editors.
The New York Examiner, says:
Every mother and housekeeper mu§toft*n
act an a family physician in the many ill
nesses and accidents that occur among chil
dren and servants. For inßny of these cases,
I have used Davis* Pain Killer, aud consider
it an indispensable article in the medicine
box. In diarrlnea. it has been used and
effected cures. For cuts and bruises, it is
invaluable.
The Editor of the Christian Advocate,
says :
It is areal pleasure to us to speak favorably
of this article, known almost universally to
be a good and safe remedy tor burns and
other pains of the body. It is valuable not
only for colds in tho winter, but for various
summer complaints, and should be in every
family.
A. I). Miller, Editor of J fessevycr, Glens
Falls, N. Y., says :
1 here is uo medicine at the present day I
value so highly as Perry Pavia* Vegetable
Pain Killer. I have used it in my family
for years; in every instance it has proved a
sovereign remedy. I tested its qualities
to-day on a severe burn, and found it all
that could be desired.
Mr. John Jackson, of the Calais Adver
tiser, writes:
I know it to be all it is recommended,
having used it in my family six or seven
years.
The Salem Observer ;
No article of nudicinc ever attained to
such unbounded popularity and extensive
diffusion. It has penetrated to every part,
even the most remote, of the known world,
bearing with it its healing influences more
potent than those of the spices of “Araby
the blessed.” We are informed by our
principal druggists, that they sell more of
this article for exportation than of any or
all others, aud that the demand is constauty
increasing.
The Cincinnati Nonpareil, Nov. 14, 1849,
says :
Seme of our most prominent citizens and
business men strongly recommend it to the
public as an article of great merit and virtue,
and that they never knew any medicine to
become so deservedly popular in so short a
time.
From Clergymen.
Rev. J. C. Boomer says :
I have used Perry Davis’ Pain Killer with
great success in cases of cholera in lan turn,
common bowel complaint, bronchitas,
coughs, colds, etc., and would cheerfully
recommend if as a valuable family modicine.
Rev. J. G. Stearns, says:
I consider it the best remedy I ever knew
(or dyspepsia.
Rev. Edward X. Fuller says :
I have witnessed the benrlicinl effects of
your Pain Killer in eases of dysentery and
cholera morbus, within a few months past,
and would cheerfully recommend its use to
such as inay bo suffering from similar dis
cuses, as :i safe and effectual remedy.
Rev. A. Webster, Editor of the Christian
Ei a, writes :
I have used your Pain Killer for many
years in my family with much satisfaction.
