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 a cost of only THREE DOLLARS’ The undersigned confidently offers this in valuable article to a discriminating public, fully confident that it will give universal sat isfaction.

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.

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 but when he recognized brought him by his wife ; and in her vir- i - c , iii i ! a PP*yed Ins finger to his nose a ta h’linv tues, he had ample recompense for the long j and laughed at the ^ 10. 31. _ Pivrre and the Printers. years of opposition on the part of her par- j had “• I T , ^ folU > wi >* & ***** from Gen, ! and started the engineer, who pounced upon 1* ^T'! at Concor(I bis return from , , * ... | tllc fhnnv pedestrian, and gave him a « reas- i .TT- ^ nd Concord ’ too > was well repre- Mrs. Jones Soliloquy, j onable” drubbing.

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.

I've heard the lieath- ry on tlie waves, shaking like a duck tlie 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 tions with the old man before he ventured, 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 heard the hail; but nothing could be seen except the white foam of the breakers in the fore ground, and the lowering clouds be- Lind, forming a chaotic mass of darkness.
