To my old Tatrons and Friends.
As there has boon some complaint of my Gins,
made during the last two years : an explanation to
you in relation to this matter is duo Mr. Cheely.
I have been absent a great portion of this time,
on a visit to the North, experimenting and getting
up a new Gin, as well as improving, tho original
Saw Gin, together with suitable machinery for this
business, to its highost perfection, as will bo ac
knowledged by all who have used them, both in
durability and quality of Cotton.
I shall now devoto my individual attention in
the shop, and see that every part of each Gin is put
up in tho neatest possible manner : in short, I shall
make the orginal Oglesby Gin, which has boon so
celebrated for durability and fine Cotton, having
taken the premium in this State as well as that of
South Carolina in every instanco except one, and
thon it was said by foreign dealers that my Cotton
was of a superiior quality. In conclusion, my late
improvements added to my former Gins, cannot fail
to givo entire satisfaction. I will alter any Old
Gins, (not too much worn,) to do better work than
it ever did before.

State Teachers’ Convention.
We are indebted to the Secretary, Rev. O. L.
Smith, for an early copy of the proceedings of
this body. The number in attendance upon the
Convention was not, perhaps, as large as was
anticipated, but the high character of those pre
sent, and the ability manifested in their pro
ceedings, will, we feel assured, elicit the com
mendation and insure the co-operation ol an
intelligent people in behalf of the noble purpose
for which they have assembled, and which,
through their exertions, must tend to the moral
and intellectual happiness of our people and the
elevation of our State institutions. Perhaps
where all have been prominent in their advoca
cy of educational reform, no distinction should
be drawn, but we believe the members of the
Convention will concur with us in saying, that
to the Rev. Thomas F. Scott, of Columbus, are
due the thanks of a grateful people for his un
tiring zeal in this cause. For a number of years
he has labored indefatigably to bring about an
organization of the teachers of the State, and to
his influence and that of the Southern School
Journal may be attributed, to a great extent, the
present happy combination of talent, energy,
and moral worth which compose the organiza
tion, whose proceedings we give below. We
sincerely trust that this primary action may
eventuate in universal blessing to the people of
Georgia, and imperishable honor to the pioneers
in educational reform.

Professor Faraday Outdone. —Some time
ago the distinguished English chemist, Professor
Faraday, published a very 44 full and particular”
statement in explanation of the table-turning
“ mystery,” proving it to be no mystery at all.—
A paper recently established in New York goes
far a head of that gentleman, however, in the
way of explaining alledged mysteries, for it sup
plies the following intelligible exposition of the
cause of the “ spirit Tappings” which atone time
deluded and sent to the lunatic asylum so many
victims:
“ Mysterious “ lappings” proceed from the
subderangement and hypereffervescence of small
conical glandular bodies situated heterogeneously
in the rotundum of the inferior acepaloiysts
which, by coming in unconscious contact with
the etherization ol the five superior processes of
the dorsal vertebrie, also results in u tippings,”
by giving rise to spontaneous combustion with
curtain abnormal exacuations of multitudinous
echinorhynrns bicornis, si mated in various abdomi
nal orifices. The raps occur from the ebulitions
of the former in certain temperamental struc
tures ; and the lips from the flfcuacic cartilaginous
ducts, whenever their contents are compressed
by cerebral inclinations.

MEXICAN MUSTANG LINIMENT.
TO THE HALT, THE LAME, THE SOKE, AND THE STIFF
JOINTED, U WE BRING YOU GLAD TIDINGS
OF GREAT JOY !
VOLCANIC OIL FROM MEXICO,
HAS long been known to possess within itself, won
derful soothing, healing and curative powers, and
has been extensively used by the Aztecs for Rheuma
tism, stiffness of Joints or Limbs, and for all kinds of
Sores, Ulcers, Burns, Wounds, Hard Lumps or Tumors,
and for all kinds of Bains or Inhumation in Manor
Beast. The happy combination of this wonderful pro
duction of nature, with other powerful remedies in
the Mexican Mustang Liniment, renders it one of the
most perfect remedies ever offered to the afflicted. Its
action upon the organization is truly wonderful. Its
volatile, penetrating, soothing and healing properties
diffuse themselves to the very bone. It enters into
the circulation of the blood, gives a new impulse to
the whole nervous system, to the very extremities of
the Angers and toes, stimulates the absorbents and se
cretions, and thus assists nature to throw off and rid
herself of rheumatism or pains in any part of the
body, from a diseased action of any of the strictural
portions of the system.
RHEUMATISM OF THIRTY YEARS STANDING,
Has been cured with it in four weeks. The most loath
some Ulcers that have been running for years ar
healed and perfectly cured in an incredibly short time
Fresh Cuts, Wounds, or Bruises, yield to it like a
charm ! Any kind of Swelling, stiffness of Joints, Hard
Tumors, or Cancers, are cured as by magic.
BURNS, SCALDS, AND SCALD HEADS,
Are liealed and perfectly cured by the Liniment alone.
It has proved itself the most extraordinary preparation
ever offered to the afflicted. It has proved an infallible
remedy in
CHRONIC AND INFLAMMATORY RHEUMATISM.
It has perfectly cured a lady who was seventy years of
age, of confirmed and long standing
NUMB PALSY, OR PARALYSIS.
A boy fifteen years of age had been under the treat
ment of several eminent physicians for ye&rs without
any benefit, was restored and perfectly cured by this
Liniment of that awful malady,
WHITE SWELLING OR HIP DISEASE.
We offer this Liniment as a remedy in'" the various
diseases and complaints for which it is recommended,
with full confidence of its success in curing them.
The following is a list of the numerous and extra
ordinary cases it has cured during the last few mouths
6,750 cases of Rheumatism in all its forms;
4,200 “ Sprains and Bruises;
5,400 “ Burns and Scalds ;
5,450 “ Fresh Cuts and Wounds;
40 “ Cancels;
7,740 “ Scrofulous Sores and Ulcers, that had re
sisted all other treatment;
4,240 “ Inflamed and Swelled Joints;
7,500 “ Piles;
400 “ Lumbago, Sciatica, Gout, and hard boay
Tumors;
6,250 “ Chapped Hands ;
2,000 “ Caked Breasts;
4,600 “ Tooth Ache;
10,000 “ Various Chronic Diseases.
This must appear almost incredibly, but the numerous
certificates and letters from distinguished physicians,
citizens, agents, and others who have used the medicine,
enable us to substantiate the above facts. MILLIONS
of bottles of Share yearly consumed, and it has always
given satisfaction, because is has performed just what
we said it would.
TO COUNTRY MERCHANTS.
Every Store should be supplied with this valuable
Liniment, as it pays a good profit and sells rapidly.
PRICES OF THE LINIMENT.
It is put up in bottles of three sizes, and retails at
twenty-five cents, fifty cents, and one dollar per bottle.
Tho fifty cent and one dollar bottles contain fifty and
one hundred per cent, more Liniment in proportion t«
their cost, so that money is saved by buying tho larger
sizes.
