G kaeeenberg M E D I-
01NES.—The Graefenburg Compound
Sfarsaparilla is given up,by all who have occasion
to test its virtue, to he the most genuine and
valuable Sarsaparilla that is now offered to the
public. The Gaefonburg Health Bittets, Eye
Lotion, &.C., are now extensively used by some
of the most respectable citizens of Savannah,
all of whom have spoken in the highest terms
of their value; and it isn fact worthy of note,
that if any person buys one of these articles,
they are sure to return and purchase again.
The Agent has always on hand a supply of Sar-
rsaparilla Compound; Vegetable l’ills; Fever
and Ague rills; Health Bitters; Eve Lotion;
Consumptives Balm; Uretine Catholecon;
Green Mountain Ointment; Children’s Panacea;
a very valuable spring Medicine for children;
Dysontc,ry Syrup and Pile Ointment, both of
which are warranted to cure—no cure, no pay.
SARSAPARILLA.
The Sarsaparilla
Compound of this
company is almostlit-
erally a sulphate of
L sarsaparilla. So high
ly concentrated is it
that the dose is but
the half of a very
small teaspoonful,
while tlie dose of that
whichis sold in large
bottles is nearly a
wine g ass tut. in addition to Sarsaparilla i
contains a powerful concentration of mandrake,
bur-dock,queens-delight, elder yellow dock gui-
acum, and other important medicaments whichtire
not found in any other preparation.
In consequence of this unpardonable dilution,
and of the imperfect modes of extracting, the
noble and healthgiving Sarsaparilln has passed
through many changes in the estimation of medi
cal men. Properly prepared and of proper
strength it is the most powerful agent in the
world to cleanse the system from its foulest
taints.
This Compound is prepared on an entirely
new plan, by costly and elaborate machinery, by
moans of which all the delicate propertties of
Sarsaparilla and other ingredients are obtained
in their highostdegree of excellence. The inert
feculent matter which encumbers all other Sar
saparilla preparation is also precluded from this
Compound by the same means. One bottle of
the Graefenberg Sarsaparilla will go as far as
ten bottles of ordinary Sarsaparilla, and is,
therefore, TEN TIMES CHEAPER. Price
$1.
The names of the Graefenberg Medicines ate:
Vegetable Pills, 25 cents per box.
Green Mountain Ointment, 25 cents per be*.'
Dysentery Syrup, 50 cents per bottle.'
Sarsaparilla Compound, $1 per bottle.
Children’s Panacea, 50 cents per both*.

[From tlxe Charleston Mercury of Tuesday 1
Father Mathew and Judge Lumpkin.
In the Mercury of Wednesday morning last,
was published o. communication introducing a
copy of F'ather Mathew’s letter to the Presi
dent of the Georgia State Temperance Socie
ty, from which the public might draw tho con
clusion that Judge Lumpkin had withheld the
explanation, or shown remissness in bringing it
forward. This would be doing him injustice,
as is shown by the letter which we copy below,
addressed to the Editor of the Temperance
Banner, (1 enfield Gn.,^on the very day he re
ceived that of Father Mathew. Reference is
also made in the communication in the Mercu
ry to a preceding private letter of Judge Lump-
kin, as if itcontaiiied matter important to bo
known. This wo learn is not the case. It
was a note of only three or four lin.es, saying
in the fewest words that the writer would in
terfere in none of our domestic questions, and
rofering to his correspondence with the Boston
Abolitionists for all further information. The
note would have been published on its receipt,
but for its being marked “private.”
With tlie position which Judge Lumpkin has
taken in this correspondence, we see not how
it is possible to find fault. tNo desire has been
expressed that Father Mathew should say one
word of approval in regard to the social insti
tutions of the Southern States; no complaint
has beeif made that he likes not slavery, and
has said so. Tho whole matter in hand is.
that a few years since he signed an address
the Irish in America, in which the latter
urged in the strongest manner, to i
the Abolitionists, and never cease
war upon slavery until it is abolisl
know well that this address
work, and that he. alone co
ternity of the peculiarly c.
language in which it r ji '
treated by the Irish ij
with the scorn it fo
has been therefore
even fop reseqtnj
No onq ever
was the aurifc
movement
who signed the addross, and to the writing of
the names of tlie whole seventy thousand of
them, there probably went not enough of con
sideration to account for a deliberate act of
one man. Mr. O’Connell called upon them
to sign his address, and they signed it. The
follies of a great man frequently have as po
tent a charm as his inspirations. Certainly it
was out of character for Father Mathew to
lose himsulf in this complaisant crowd. He
had a cause of his own—die %id chosen a cu-
re.cr and acquired celebrity. In his own po
sition he was a sun; und to leave that and
wander in the mtizo of telescopic sateliteg of
some other luminary, was to desert a high ot-
iico for a very humble ono. But in this single
instance only, can Father Mathew be charged
with forgetting his true and noble vocatiou;
and so far from having a desire to cherish tho
remembrance of it to his disadvantage, the
Southern people had wholly forgotten it, and
he owes the revival of it to the Abolitionist#
of the North^ eager to claim tho authority of
his venerable name in favor of a warfare upon
us, which, in its ruthless and untiring maligni
ty, has few parallels in the history of human
crime.
But wo have gone beyond our intention,
which was simply to introduce, with a brief ex
planation, the following letter of Judgo Ltimp-
Athens, Dec. 28th. 1849.
Dear Sir—In my address to the “Friends of
Temperance in Georgia,” upon th*imnnexiou
of Father), Mathew with the O’OonneU circu
lar, I pledged myself that “shnultfjy^uytliing
transpire to change the aspocf bf thfe affair
and which would present the imjuai'ded act of
this distinguished philanthropist in a molh fa
vorable light, I should consider it duo to jus
tice to make it public,”
Tlie accompanying letter was roceivod to
day from Father Mathew, and as the writer
seems to consider it a full und satisfactory ex
planation of tho wholo matter, I am unwilling
to tako tile responsibility of withholding it.
Having discharged what I felt to be an im
perative duty, however painful the perform-
ant e, in protecting tho cause of Temperance
within our borders, from the misrepresenta- 1
tions ofeevil disposed persons on account of
the invitation which wo extended to Father
Mathew in ignorance of his interference with
our domestic institutions and by my conduct be
ing justified and sustained by the great body of
my fellow citizens, I am content.
It is a great mistake in Father Mathew, or
otiters, to suppose that an effort was made on
our part to drive him from his position of neu
trality, respecting the slavery question. Un
fortunately for him, I must think, in an evil
hour, he fully committed himself up on this '
subject by signing the O’Connell circular, and
thus easting the influence of hb*.Brent name on
tho side of our enemies. But for thfs n6In
quiry would ever have- been made to ascertain
his opinions. And our sole object has been
to induce him to retrace this step, and again
place himself right before the country.
lather Mathew in the ncoompanying letter
renews the declaration of his firm determination
•‘not to interfere in any, the slightest degree,
with the Institutions of this mighty Republic."’
and seems surprised that in this emphatically
free country, this should not be deemed suffi
cient. This would be sufficient had he never be
fore interfered in this matter. But having tok
en his position in the O’Connell circular he can
not now occupy a neutral position until he first
retraces thut step. The blow has been already
struck. Let him recall that bloic, und occupy a
strictly neutral position and we will bo content.
We do not ask him to become our Champion*,
but so long as the O’Connell circular remains un^
explained, we must consider him the champion
of our foes. That is said by hi* friend* to have
been an unguarded act. Let him so avow • let
him express regret for the wrong he has thus in
flicted on an unoffending people, and then, if ho
chooses, occupy a neutral position. If he feels
such regret, as a man nnd a Christian he ought
to acknowledge it. If he docs not feel such^re-
gret, he cannot ask or expect a cordial welcome
from the truo Irish heart of the South.
And is a source of profound regret among
his numerous admirers, of whom I count my
self one of the chief, that the same singleness
of devotion to the Temperance enterprise,
which prevented him from uniting with Mr-
O’Connel in the Repeal Agitation at homo
had not restrained him from joining Mr.
O’Connell in his war of aggression upon the
domestic institution of a foreign country.
What I have written is merely to place
truly before the world tho issue we make, and I
speak, I believe, the feelings of the Temperance
people of Georgia, in saying, thatlhey’l.ave made
this issue more in sorrow, than in anger. We
would rejoice to see this great champion of
perance occupying such a truly neutral po
as would enable him to do the most
which he bus rendered himself so
ed.
A portion of this communicatic
preferred lo have directed I
himsulf had I known where!
ing ignorant of his rnovem j
native but to communic
trust if it meets his i
the mistake as i
seems to labor.
But Father
I doubtn
the truth
done t
, and
ened to see
that he has
standing bis form-
Union which he has
confide in his candor
raot what he has written,
be convinced that he was
fy to what he wiii find to
te African race is belter off here
of the North, where their
comparatively small, and where si»
el is manifested in their behalf—that
attained a higher degree of civilization
ever reached for thirty centuries past
in their native land. And that the negroes here
iivo in eaisc and luxury, and their estate Is alto
