DYSPEPSIA.
DCf’To soothe the sufferings of
huiuat ity, to ameliorate the pangs
of disease, is the grand object of
medica* science This is efficient
ly demonstrated in the healing vir
tues of
Dlt. BENJAMIN BRANDRETirS
PILLS.
The cures effected by this medi
cine would fill volumes.
Views cn Indigestion as a source
of various Undefined and Irregular
Nervous Sensations.
“Ills, small at first, grow larger from delay,
“And slowly eat their sad and cankering way;
“ Thus by successive throes, the frame is torn,
“ Till health and peace of mind alike are gone."
THE nerves of the human body—those necessary
and mysterious agents which immediately con
nect „,a n with external nature—are singularly prone
to have their functions disordered by an oppressed con
dition of the stomach ; the minute lerininaiion of that
portion of he nerves expanded upon the organs of
digestion conveying the morbid impression tothe Brain
And although the lleaii can, undoubtedly, like other
organs, lie the scat of prima') risorder.yet' in the great
majority of ca.es, the uneasy sei sations there experi
enced are symptomatic of disordered Stomach; and,
further there is abundant evidence to prove that crudi
ties in the Stomach and Bowels can, in every grade of
humhn existence give rise to spasmodic action in every
organ of the t>ody ; and whether we survey it in the
agonising form of Tie Dolcreaux—the alarming con
vulsions of the Epileptic seizure—or in that irritable
condition of 'he nerves ofihe heart occasioning nervous
palpitation—they can all frequently be traced to the
source above mentioned, and l«e cured by mild evacu
ant and tonic remedies. To relieve a state of so much
suffering and distress (in which bodv and mind also
participate) BRANOHETH PILLS are confi
dently recommended: as, by combining aromatic ionic
and cleansing properties, they remove all oppressive
accumulations, strengthen the Stomach, induce a
healthy appetite,and impart tranquility to the nervous
system ; and in feet, by their general purifying power
upon the blood, exert a most beuttflcial influence in all
cases of disease. Read ihe following.
DYSPEPSIA CLUED.
BENNINGTON, Vt. Dec. sth, 1843.
Dear Sir: —l wish you to add my testimony to the
host of others that you have, in favci of yotirvaluable
Fills, fn the year 1838, I was attacked with that dis.
agreeable complaint, the DYSPEPSIA, which so
affected me that I could not take the least particle of
food, without the most unpleasant and uncomfortable
spnsations in my chest, head and bowels. My chest
was so sore that I could not bear the slightest pres
sure without giving me pain. My health was most
miserable ; many physicians told me they thought I
was in the consumption, and that if I did not give up
my business, and change climate I could live but a
short time.
I tried every thing in the shape of medicine, and
consulted the most skilfnl physicians, but found no
permanent relief. I became discouraged, gloomy,
sad, and sick of life; and, probably, ere this should
have been in my grave, had I not fell in with your
precious medicine. A friend of mine, w-hohad been
sick of the same complaint, advised me to try your
pills; but,'having 1 tried most of the medicines « idiom
obtaining any relief, bad but little faith (bat your
Pills would be of benefit to me ; but, at his earnest
solicitations, I procured a box and commenced taking
them. The first box produced little or no effect, anil
I began to despond, for fear that your medicine
would prove like others I have taken; hut my friends
argued that one was not a fair trial, and I purchased
a second, and before I had taken the whole box I be
gan to experience a cl.ange: the pain in mv chest
began to be less painful, and my food did notdistres
me as uuch as formerly I wenton taking diem un
ti I had taken six boxes, and my DYSPEPSIA
was GONE, and my expectation of an tarly death
vanished, and 1 fed like a “ new creature.” 1 was
then, and am now, a healthy man. I have never
since been troubled with the DYSPEPSIA. I
have administered your Pills to the members of my
family, and to my Iricnds. and in all cases with good
success. You ran publish if it will be of any use to
you. I am, dear Sir, trulyyours,

DEMOCRATIC CHAMPION,
UNDER the above title shall be issued, from the
office of the Georgia Constitutionalist, on the
15th of April next, or perhaps sooner, a weekly news
paper, the publication of which shall be continued
until the Isth of November following. It is at the
solicitation of many political friends that the public
ation of such a paper is undertaken. As the pub
lisher is well aware that, owing to the moderate
price of the subscription, the undertaking cannot be
made a profitable one to him, he expects at any rate
a sufficient number of subscribers to cot er expen
ses. This is all he asks. He therefore trusts that
the members of the democratic party of Georgia
will sustain a publication whieh will be one of the
organsofthe party during the approaching contest
for p./Fhieal power. As the principals of the publish
er, and of the present editors of tile Constitutional
ist are well known in Georgia, and as their stubborn
adherence to the democratic faith has been more
than once manifested and acknowledged, the pub
lisher and editors will not in this prospectus enlarge
on the course they will pursue in editing this extra
pap-r- They will endeavor to make it acceptable to
their friends, if unretnitted industry and close atten
tion to passing even's can accomplish that object.—
If by the publication of the papor the editors can
contribute to a democratic victory, and especially to
the maintenance and ascendancy of democratic
principles, they will have attained what they are
aiming at. The paper will be published with new
type, of the size of the weekly Constitutionalist, and
will contain 29 columns of political matter. It will
be entirely devoted to-the approaching contest. —
The terms will be as follows r
For the time it will be published, six months, one
dollar for one copy; one person taking five ropies,
four dollars, and taking ten copies seven dollars ; all
payable in advanac, as no paper will be sent unless
this is complied with.
Postmasters are authorized by the post office reg
ulations to transmit to editors money obtained for
subscriptions, so that a number of subscribers can
join and send through their nearest post office the
amount of their subscriptions.

tJ-Thc necessity of such a paper in Georgia, in
order to carry on the war successfully in the ensu
ing contest, u hit h will be one of extraordinary ex
citement and vehemence, must be a-parent to all
who have observed the feverish circles of the coun
try. The publisher hopes, therefore, to be well sup
ported in his undertaking, not only in the way of
subscriptions, but by the contribution of the demo
cratic writers of the State.
fj" Friends who receive a copy of this prospectus
arc requested to procure subscribers, and to send
their names as speedily as possible, as it is of impor
tance tt> ascertain the number of papers that will be
wanted for the first impression, though an extra
number will be printed.

markable improvement of the ait of wood engraving’,
which, by combining great excellence of execution,
with economy of price, has given an unprecedented
diffusion to the most useful a9 well as the most ex

character of the several personages, and the spirit of
the scne, with wonderful truth and power; whilst
the wood engraving* of Knight’s Pictorial edition
combine with the highest me fits of art and ta9te,
such a learned and minute accuracy a3 to scenery,
costume, architf cture and antiquity as to make them
a perpetual and most instructive commentary upon
the Poet’s text. It i3 now proposed to embody in
an American Edition, the admirable illustrations of
both these editions, cnerravcd with equal excellence
of mechanical execution, to add to these, otfier en
gravings from eminent artists, as Reynolds, Fuseli,
S. Newton, &c., and to accompany them with a beau
lifully printed and correct t» xt.
But the publisher, a xi*»us that his country should
pay some part of the homage due from her to the
greatest of Poets, as to one who belongs not solely
to England, butte all
v h ; the tongue
That Shakspearc spake,
Could not content himself with a mere repuhlication
or compilation. He ha3 therefore prevailed upon R.
W. Weir, whose reputation as an artist is already
identified with his country’s history, to contribute a
series of orhhitinl designs, tog-ether with such advice
and assistance in other details of art as his taste may
suggest for the illustration and embellishment of
this publication. From the same teas n the publish
er, instead of reprinting the text and com men’ary of
any popular English impression, was desirous that
his edition should* haVe the supervision fan Ainer
can edttot*. This task has been undertaken by GU
LIAN O. VERPLANCK.
The plan proposed to himself by the editor is to
furnish the reader with a carefully prepared and ac
curately printed text, tin ifed by any notes
or comments upon the page itifcliY a-* however use
ftH they mov be elsewhere, thev an too apt to divert
the mind from the power of the Poet’s thought, and
to disturb the magic of his scene. Such notes as
may he thought useful f«»r the explanation criti
cism of the text, will he thrown’ fiitb an Appendix to
ca« h play.
The text of Shakspeare’s dtamatic works, drawn
from old printed copies in his age, which had never
passed under the author’s own eye, was consequent
ly disfigured by many errors and obscurities, ft
passed during the last century through a succession
of varying editions until the revision of SteVcn-* and
Malone, whose text, (or rather that of Stevens) has
become the standard from which most of the English
and American editions have been printed, with vari
ous degrees of accuracy. Bui within the last twen
ty years a more minute ami familiar acquaintance
with old English idioms, habits, and modes of
thought, guided by an intense and constantly increa
sing admiration of Shakspeare’s genius, has led to
the strong conviction that very many of the numer
ous though slight deviations from the ancient text
appearing in modern editions, are useless or errone
ous interpolations, sometimes weakening the sense
and often su suturing an arbitrary monotonous met
rical regularity to the Poet’s own native melody.—
Accordingly very many of these emendations have
been rejected by the last and best English editors,
especially Mr. Knight and Mr. Collier, atnl the rea
dings of the old folios and quartos have been resto
red, unless where some error of the press or manu
script was undeniably manifest. Yet there aro ma
ny such passages confessedly corrupt, and requiring
conjectural emendation; there are also differences
of reading between the several old impressions, af
fording grounds for some diversity of text and warm
controversy between the more recctit editors.
Upon these the American edimr thinks it due to
the character of this edition, to decide for himself
without implicitly following the text of any mre mod
ern edition. A« the industry and learning of prior
editors have furnished the collation of various read
ings and the authorities upon which they may he
supported, the task is no longer that oflabmious in
vestigation, hut, as it were, of judicial decision, en
lightened by contending argument-
As many of these variations are of nearly equal
probability, and as some of them are doubtless the
author’s own alterations at different periods ,all the
more important readings will be presented to the
reader in the notes for his own selection. Those
notes will also contain so much of commentary as
may be useful to explain antiquated words and phra
ses, obscurely expressed passages, and allusions to
obsolete opinions or the habits or history of the
times; the whole in as condensed a form a9 practica
ble. But any commentary upon Shakspearc, how
ever brief, would he imperfect if it did not present
some view of the higher criticism employed, not on
the. interpretation of his language, but upon his
thoughts, his character, his poetr**, passions, philoso
phy. The only difficulty here arises from the abun
dance, the magnificent variety of the materials con
tributed during the last half century by the most
brilliant mirds rs Europe. Still it is believed that
this duty can be satisfactorily performed without
swelling the edition to an inconvenient hulk.
