NUNN ALLY’S '
CHEMICAL PATENT SOAP.
S INCE the introduction to the public of
this new and simple mode of making
soap, but a few months past, it has met with
unusual succccss.
For cheapness, it at once addresses itself
to the economy of every house-keeper, being
made at an expense of
ysD" Lees than One Cent per Pound
For its line and lively washing qualities, it
is iuferior to no other soap ; indeed, it may
be said to be without a rival. It is admira
bly suited to washing line clothes of every
desciiption—such as calicoes, muslins, rich
Laces, &c. &c., without the slightest injury to
fabric or color.
As a toilet soap, it is unsurpassed for
cleansing the skin. The most delicate and
tender female may uscitwithont detriment to
thetexturc of the skin; and the most fastidi
ous gentleman will find it an exquisite shav
ing soap.
For beauty, sweetness and active washing
properties, it is equal to any and inferior to
no other soap. It combines at once, all that
is desirable in this useful and indispensable
article of household economy.
The great tuc.lity with which it can be
made, is a desideratum, and recommends it
to the public.
FROM 50 TO 5,000 POUNDS CAN BE PRO
DUCED PER DAY!
By purchasing and adopting the receipt for
making this soap, much lime will be saved,
much trouble dispensed with, expenses nia
rerially lessened, and a good, cleanly and
pleasant soap obtained, adapted to the wants
of the people.
Family Rights to manufacture Hunnally's
Chemical Patcnf Soap, may be nrocurcd at

valuable article to a discriminating public,
fully confident that it will give universal sat
isfaction.

D. Nl. HOOD,
W OULD most respectfully inform the
citizens of Adairsville, the surround
ing country’, the people in “ gineral”—and
the Ladies more especially, that he is now
receiving and opening a very neat and care
fully selected stock of
Spring and Summer Goods,
Dry Goods, Hats, Caps, Bonnets, Boots,
Shoes, Hardware, Cutlery, Drugs and Med
icines, Crockery and Glass-ware, Nails,
Groceries, &c., all of which he most respect
fully and emphatically offers at prices rea
sonable, and to suit the times, which all
will agree must be low.
He does not pretend to say that he sells
Goods cheajier than anybody in town—but
there’s one thing he trill say,—that if you
will only try him once, you will be certain
to come back and trade with him *’ some
more.” His motto is, and always Ao* been,
“Live and let live.”
He would earnestly request the Ladies
and Gentlemen who trade at Adairsville, to
give him a call and examine his Goods, and
ask the prices, as he consideisit no trouble,
but a pleasure to wait on all, whether they
buy or not.
Joe and Ben are always ready, and ex
tremely anxious to wait on you at aR *
and under any circumstances, and
is, these Boys,—Jos and Bbn
hard to beat; and when Jos is
wise employed, he is what can do npN
“Tooth Carpentering’ for yon. He can
“pull out” your Teeth, or fill them up
either.
Adairsville, Ga., April 15,1852.
We give place to the following beau
tiful lines, and would suggest to our readers
that they will have an opportunity of pro
curing mementoes of their relatives and
friends during the stay of Mr. Lawrence
in our village.
The Memento.
Oh! give me not the glittering ring,
Such gaudy trifles please no more,
A dearer offering thou canst bring—
The face I loved in days of yore.
I do not prize the golden chain,
It brings no memories of thee;
Take back the splendid gift again,
’Twere worse than valueless to me.
And do not offer rich array,
Youth’s dream of vanity is o’er ;
Let Daguerre’s magic art portray
The face I loved in days of yore.
So life-like his creations seem,
So true to nature every smile,
My cheated heart could almost dream
Thou wert before me all the while.
In rich mementoes do not pay
Thine homage—they are prized no more;
Let Daguerre’s magic art portray
The face I loved in days of yore.
The old man groaned, and sinking down
on a boulder, buried his face in his hands,
and rocked his body to and fro, occasionally
pausing to listen to the guns or to gaze sea
ward, and then resume his position, moan
ing continually. Five minutes might thus
have passed, when a youg man burst through
the crowd, and shaking the old man by the
shoulder, said:
“ Mr. Snelling, they; say your daughter
is on board the packet—is if scr?”
“ Yes, good youth, and you have come to
rescue her,” he exclaimed starting up with

Will no one go for her ? Will no one go
off for my child, my only childshrieked
the miser, wringing his hands, and running
to and fro in the crowd. But all turned a-
way. There was scarcely a soul present
who, at one time or another, had not suffer
ed from the hands of the hard-hearted mon
ey-lender.
<< Oh ! for the love of God—you who are
fathers think of me. My daughter will per
ish—will yon not go off for her, Townsend ?
I'll give you anything—I mean in reason.”
Go for her! not I,” said the man with a
mocking laugh, shaking off the old man—
«< all your gold would not tempt me ont on
that boiling sea. Besides,.ain’t I a father,
too—and think you I'll sacrifice my life for
another ? No, no, old hulk, yon must take
your gold to some other market.”
Oh, she will die, my child for whom I
have saved all. Peter Jones, will yon go
off, if I will give yon a thousand dollars r”
Not for ten thousand,” gruffly said the
person addressed, »< a boat couldn't live in
the breakers a minute.”
I will give ten thousand to any one,”
eagerly said the old miser—« ten thousand
dollars. I know you will go for ten thou
sand dollars, Simon,” and he seized one of
the spectators by the button of his shaggy
jacket. c< Oh, go, and the blessing of a
broken-hearted father will go with yon.”
<> I can’t think of it, for I'd never return
to enjoy your money. No, old man,” he
said, in a more feeling tone than the rest
had used, « your daughter must die.”
« Must die ! Oh, no—she shan't die.”
.< Take all I are worth, good sirs,” he said
lifting up his hands imploringly, « but re

spray from her sides, and for a- few minutes
was seen, momently cutting the outlines of
the gloomy sky as she attained the summit
of a billow; then she gradually passed into
the darkness, and was seen no more.
For more than an hour-the crowd remain
ed on the beach, almost incredulous of the
lover's sucess, and yet lingering in the faint
hope that he might return with his precious
freight. That he had the good wishes of all,
was evident from the fin able prayer for his
success, which Were breathed by more than
one of the women. A part from the general
crowd stood the fisherman whom the miser
had last appealed to, surrounded by a few
kindred spirits who were discussing with
him the chances of the young man's return
ee It was madness to attempt it,” said the
fisherman, ee but when I found he would go,
I insisted that he should make his condi

for you see, if his daughter was once restored
to the usurer’s hands, mighty little grati
tude would he have lor her preserver, and
Harry would stand as poor a chance as ever.
Between us, 1 believe she thought as much
'of tlie young man as he did of her, and if
her father sent her away, as I more than
suspect, to drive Harry Martin from her
thoughts, her present danger looks some
thing like the retribution of a higher power
as a punishment for his conduct. But hark,
was not that a hallo
Every eye was turned seaward, in which
direction the fisherman indicated that lie

except the white foam of the breakers in the
fore ground, and the lowering clouds be-

Nor was any sound save that of the roaring
tempest borue to the car.
ee Hark r” at length said one, ee there it
is again;”
Every one listened, and now a hallo was
heard faintly from the thick gloom seaward. ;
One of the fishermen shouted, and

we exclaim:
