Nervous Sensations.
“Ills, small at first, grow larger from delay,
44 And slowly eat their sad and cankering way;
“ Thus by successive throes, the frame is torn,
44 Till health and peace of mind alike are gone.”
rp fI ri nerves of the human body—those necessary
X and mysterious agents which immediately con
nee 4 man with external nature—are singularly prone
to have their functions disordered by an oppressed con
dition of the stomach ; the minute termination of that
portion of he nerves expanded upon the organs of
digestion conveving the morbid impression to the Brain
And although the Head can. undoubtedly, like other
organs, be the seat of primary risorder.yet, in the great
majority of cases, the uneasy sersations there experi
enced are symptomatic of disordered Stomach; and,
further there is abundant evidence to prove that crttAi
ties in the Stomach and Bowels can, in every grade of
hutnhn existence give rise to spasmodic action in every
organ of the body ; arid whether we survey it in the
agonising lorm of Tic Dolereattx—the alarming con
vulsions of the Epileptic seizure—or in that irritable
condition of the nerves ofthe heart occasioning nervous
palpitation—they can all frequently be traced to the
source above mentioned, and lie cured by mild evaett
ant and tonic remedies. To relieve a state of so much
suffering and distress (in which body and mind also

DYSPEPSIA CURED.
BENNINGTON, Vt. Dec. sth, 1943.
Dear Sirl wish you to add my testimony to the
host of others that you have, in favei of your valuable
Pills. In the year 1833, I was attacked with that dis
agreeable complaktt, the DYSPEPSIA, which so
affected me that I could not take the least particle of
food, without the most unpleasant and uncomfortable
sensations in my chest, bead 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 tip
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 skilful 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 fiend of mine, whohad been
sick of the same complaint, advised me to try your
pills ; tried most ofthe medicines u ithout
obtaining any relief, bad but little faith that your
Pills would be of benefit to tne ; but, at his earnest
solicitations. I procured abox and commenced taking
them. The first box produced little or no effect, and
I began to despond, for fear that your medicine
would prove like others I have taken; but my friends
argued that one was not a fair trial, and I purchased
a second, and before I had taken the whole box Ibc
gan to experience a change : the pain in my chest
began to be less painful, and my food did not distres
me as uuch as formerly I wenton taking them un
til I had mken six boxes, and my DYSPEPSIA
was GONE, and my expectation of an early death
vanished, and I felt 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 friends, and in all cases with good
success. You ran publish if it will be of any use to
you. lam, dear Sir, trulyyours,

THE
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 15th 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 which will be one of the
organs of the party during the approaching contest
for political power. As the principals of the publish
er, and of the present editors of the Constitutional
ist are well known in Georgia, and as their stubborn
adherence to the democratic faith baa 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
paper. They will endeavor to make it acceptable to
their friends, if unremitted industrv and close atten
tion to passing even's can accomplish that object.—
If by the publication of the paper the editors can
contribute to a democratic victory, and especially to
the maintenance and ascendancy c>{ 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 28 columns of political matter. It will
be entirely devoted to the approaching contest. —
The terms will be as follows :
For the time it will be published, six months, one
dollar for one copy; one person taking five copies,
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.

s^The necessity of such a paper in Georgia, in
order to carry on the war successfully in the ensu
ing contest, which will be one of extraordinary ex
citement and vehemence, must be apparent 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.
f~y 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 to ascertain the number of papers that will be
wanted for the first' impression, though an extra
number will be printed.

PROSPECTUS.
The Pictorial and Illustrated editions of SHAK
SPEARE, lately published in England, are amongst
the most beautiful specimens of the recent and re
markable improvement ot 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 as well as the most cx
quisite productions of the arts of design.
The designs of Kenny Meadows for the illustra
tions of Tyas’ edition of Shakspeare, expresses the
character of the several personages, and the spirit of
the sc. ne, with wonderful truth and power; whilst
the wood engraving of Knight's Pictorial edition
combine with the highest merits of art and taste,
such a learned and minute accuracy as to scenery,
costume, architr cture and antiquity as to make them
a perpetual and most instructive commentary upon
the Poet’s text. It is now proposed to embody in
an American Edition, the admirable illustrations of
both these editions, engraved with equal excellence
of mechanical execution, to add to these, other en
giavings from eminent artists, as Reynolds, Fuseli,
S. Newton, lie., and to accompany them with a beau
lifully primed and correct text.
But the publisher, anxious that hiscountry should
pay some part of the homage due from her to the
greatest of Poets, as to oue who belongs not solely
to England, butte all
That Shakspeare spake,
i Could not content himself with a mere republication
I or compilation. He lias therefore prevailed upon R.
VV. Weir, whose reputation as an artist is already
identified with his country’s l.istorVi to contribute a
scries of original designs, together with such advice
and assistance in other details of art as his taste mar
suggest for the illustration and embellishment of
this publication. From tbe same reason the publish
er, instead of reprinting the text and commentary of
] any popular English impression, was desurous that
j his edition ehottld have the supervision •>fan Amer-
I can editor. This task has been undertaken by GU
LIAN O. VERPLANCK.
The pian proposed to himself hy the editor is to
furnish the reader with a carefully prepared and ac
curately printed text, ttne tcumbered by any notes
or comments upon the page itself; as however use
ful they may be elsewhere, they arc 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 be thought useful for the explanation or criti
cism of the text, will be thrown iuto an Appendix to
each play.
The text of Shakspearc’s dramatic works, drawn
from old printed copies in his age, which had never
rassed under the author’sown eye, was consequent
ly disfigured by many errors and obscurities. It
passed during the last century through a succession
of varying editions until the revision of Stevens 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. But within the last twen
ty years a more minute and 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 toy t
appearing in modern editions, are useless or errone
ous interpolations, sometimes weakening the sense
and often su stituling cn 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 Jlr. Collier, and the rea
dings of the old folios and quartos have been resto
red, unless where some error ofthe press or manu
script was undeniably manifest. Yet there are 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 a-id warm
controversy between the more recent editors.
Upon these the American editor thinks it due to
the character of this edition, to decide for himself
without implicitly following the text of any one mod
ern edition. As the industry and learning of prior
editors have furnished the collation of various read
ings and the authorities upon which they may be
supported, the task is no longer that of laborious in
vestigation, but, 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 tbe
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 tocxplain antiquated wmds 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 as practica
ble. But any commentary upon Shakspeare, how
l ever brief, would be imperfect if it did not present
I some view of the higher criticism employed, not on
the interpretation of bis language, but upon his
thoughts, his character, bis poctr'-, 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 minds of Europe. Still it is believed that
this duty can be satisfactorily performed without
swelling the edition to an inconvenient bulk.
