rnHE MERITS OF THIS*
A Plow over others, for
the cultivation of both Cot
ton and Corn are many, but!
only its leading merits: With four wings,
two small and two largo, it can be converted
into Seven different Plows, all of which are
very necessary for the cultivation of dif-
feront crops. And another very important
feature is durability. A Plow completed
will Inst a man from two to five years, accord
ing to the dbll he cultivates, and will only
cost about Three Dollars to put it up. An
Agenoy will soon bo established in Romo,
and then planters wilt be invited to call and
see for themselves. Address,

J. B. MURPHY
RESIDENT DENTIST,
B ESFECTFULLY iuforins his friends, and
tho public generally, that he continues
thepractiue of DENT1STR Y iu all its branch
es, and has fitted up an office, over the store
of McGuiro A Pinson, where ho is prepared
to exeeuto aUoperatlonsappertaiuing to Den
tistry, in the most 1 approved manner.
He would also oall tho particular attention
of those in want of Artificial Work, to his su-
irior style of tooth, set on gold plate; for
lauty, strength and life-like appeaeance,
they are not Burpassod. As an iinprcsiionhos
been made that my prices for dental opera
tions are higher than tho usual ran of Den
tists, I beg leave to say that they are the same
as charged by Dentists at Augusta, Macon
and Savannah. For Artificial Work my char-
ges are as follows:
Entire Sots Upperand Lower from$100to$26b
Half Sets, Upper or Lower, from 60 to 160
Temporary Sets, Upper and Lower, 26 each.
Partial Sets in proportion to tho above.
_As I am well posted in all the late improve
ments of tho day, I feel confident that I can
meet the wants of all who may need the ser
vices of a Dentist, and if references are want
ed; as to their utility in answering the purpo
se* of nature, I can glva them in abundance,
from those who have tested my skill, for the
jutfourteeayears, in this, and adjoining
