Liver P* l,s * —The Liver Pills of
Dr. MLane were first used by him ex
clusively in his own practice. So efficacious were
they in all cases of Liver complaint, that they be
camo famous, an i attracting .the attention of the
medical faeulty. passed into general use. They act
with great certainty and regularity; the patient*
almost immediately feels the dispersion of his dis
ease, and is gradually restored to health. With
some the effect is almost miraculous, frequently ex
periencing immediate rolief, after having for months
resorted to drugs and medicines of another descrip
tion, in vain. Diseases of the Liver are very com
mon in this country, and are often frightful in
character. Those who experience any of the pre
monitory symptoms of this dangerous and compli
cated disease, should at once procure a box of Dr.
M Lane's Pills, and perhaps, thereby, be saved a
world of misery.
will be careful to ask for Dr.
M'Lane s Celebrated Liver Pills, and take none
else. There are other Pills, purporting to be Liver
Pills, now before the public. Dr. M’Lane's Liver
Pi 1 la. alone his Celebrated Vermifuge, can now be
had at all respectable Drug Stores in the United
States and Canada.

Germans have produced seme very
iiS excellent remedies for various diseases.
Among whiclumay be specified “Dr. Hoofijands
celebrated bitters.” for sale by C. M. Jackson —and
used with remarkable success in Liver Complaint,
Jaundice, Dyspepsia, Nervous Debility, and a gene
ral derangement of the stomach. The Sunday
Dispatch says of this medicine :
“We feel convinced, that in the use of the Ger
man Bitters the patient does not become debilitat
ed, but constantly gains strength and vigor to the
frame—a fact worthy of great consideration. The
Bitters are pleasant in taste and in smell, and can
be administered under any circumstances, to the
most delicate stomach. Indeed they can be used
by all persons w:th the most perfect. afety. Itwould
be well for those who are m« :h affected in the ner
vous system, to commence with one teaspoonlul or
lass, and gradually increase. We speak rom ex
perience, an l are, of course, a proper judge. The
press far and wide, have united in recommending
the German Bitters, and to the afflicted we most
cordially advise their use.” 12 soptl9

required for the regular transmission of the mail.
A record or duplicate of the letter informing a
bidder of the acceptance of his proposal will be

of the act of 1846, and his bid will be made and
accepted in conformity with this understanding.
Every offer made must be accompanied (as di
rected in the 6th section of the act of Congress
making appropriations for the naval service for

cient sureties, to furnish the article proposed.

of each member of the firm, where a company of
fers, with the Christian names written in full,

Bidders will take notice that this advertisement
differs from previous ones in several particulars,
such as the additional parts to be excluded from
the fore quarters of cattle , the description of bar
rels required, Sfc., and that in the inspection for
reception a just and rigid comparison will be
made between the pmk and- beef at d the barrels,
and the conditions of the contracts, and none will
be received that fall below the latter. Their atten
tion is also particularly directed to the annexed
joint resolution of 27th March, 1854, as well as to
act of 1 0th August, 1846 :

tatives of the United States of America, in Con
gress assembled, That all bids for supplies of pro
visions, clothing, and small stores for the use of

partment, if made by one who is not known as a
manufacturer of, or regular dealer in, the article
proposed to be furnished, which fact, or the reverse,
must be distinctly stated in the bids offered ; that
the bids of all persons who may have failed to
comply with the conditions of any contracts they
may have previously entered into with the United
States shall, at the option of the department, be
rejected; that if more than one bid be offered for
the supply of an article on account of any one
party, either in his own name, or in the name of
his partner, clerk, or any other person, the whole
of such bids shall be rejected at the option of the
department; and copartners of any firm shall not
be received as sureties for each other; and that,
whenever it may be deemed necessary, for the in
terest of the government atd the health of the
crews of the United States vessels, to procure par
ticular brands of flour which are known to keep
best on distant stations, the Bureau of Provisions
and Clothing, with the approbation of the Secreta
ry of the Navy, bo, and hereby is, authorized to
procure the same on tho best terms, in market overt.
Approved 27 March, 1854.

PLANTATION FOR SALE,
IN BAKER COUNTY, GEORGIA.
THE well-known oak and hickory Cotton ***
Plantation, called Greenwood, situated
on the Coolawahee Swamp, six miles west of ■■■“»•
Albany, Baker county, (now Dougherty.) Said
Plantation contains 1,500 acres of tho very best
land, in said county, most of which is cleared,
with extensive improvements on it, in perfect or
der. My usual crop is about 200 bales, of 500
pounds, with 27 hands.
Twenty young mules, about eight thousand bush
els corn and the stock of hogs and cattle, will be
sold with the place. Said plantation has proven
very healthy. I will reserve one lot of 250 acres.
if the purchaser does not object.
The fertility and never failing qualities of Baker
county lands, together with the exemption, in a
great measure, from the Boil Worm and the Cater
pillar, being so well known, renders it useless to
enumerate the many advantages they posses# over
any cotton lands in this State or elsewhere. My
only reason for Selling is to concentrate my plant
ing interests, and to bring my negroes nearer to
my place of residence and business.
S' Any one desiring to purchase the place, had bet
ter go and seo the growing crop now on it, then
they can judge what the land will produce, and
see with certainty for themselves.
Terms easy to‘the purchaser. Apply toK,-jig
