CHANGE GF DIRECTION.
We desire such of our subscribers as may at ■
any time wish the direction of their papers chan- )
ged from one Post Office to another, to inform i
us, in all cases, of the place to which they had
been previously sent; as the mere order tn for
ward them to a different office, places it almost
out of our power, to comply, because we have no
means of ascertaining the office from which they i
ar« ordered to be changed, but a search through
our whoU subscription Book, containing severa
thousand names.
POSTAGE.
It is a standing rule with this office, as wel ,
as all others, that the postage of all letters and
communications to toe Editor or Proprietor
must ba paid. We repeat it again,—and re
quest all persons having occasion to address us
upon business connected in any way with the
establishment, to bear it in mind. Persons
wishing to become subscribers to the Standard
of Union, are particularly requested togivethei ■
attention to this ; or they will not have the pa |
per forwarded to them.
TO ADVERTISERS ABROAD.
Persons, at a distance, who are desirous )
of giving their advertisements an extensive l
circulation, are respectfully informed that )
THE STANDARD of union presents the
means of spreading them before a larger!
number of readers than any paper in Geor
gia, or perhaps in the Southern country, 1
with but a single exception. There is not
a State or Territory in the Union, to which ■
it has not found its way ; and scarcely a
Post Office in this State where it is not ta
ken.

I (former Editor of the Jacksonville Register,) for

a g'.ntlcman of science, mid successful instructor
of youth, that we deem it. unnecessary to say tiny
thing in commendation of him as a teacher. The
situation of the academy is unquestionably healthy,
i being situated in the centre of the Cedar Valley,
i tho most southern blue lime stone water in the

; children, would do well to scud them to this Insti

CURED BY EXTERNAL APPLICATION.
TTIaR- V G. HULL’S UTERO ABDOMINAL
JaJx SUPPORTER is offered to those afflicted
with Prolapsus Uteri, ami other diseases depend
ing upon relaxation of tlm abdominal muscles, as
an instrument in every way calculated for relief
and permanent restoration to health. When this
Instrument is carefully and properly fitted to the
form of the patent it invariably affords the most
immediate immunity from the distressing “ drag
ging and bearing down,’’ sensations which accom
pany nearly all cases of Visceral displacements of
the abdomen, and its skilful application is always
followed by an early confessipn of radical relief
from the patient herself. The Siqqiorter is of sim
ple construction and can be applied by the patient j
without further aid. Within the last two years 701) I
of the Utero Abdominal Supporters have been ap- ■
[died with the most hoppy results.
The very great success which this Instrument
has met warrants the assertion, that its examina
ionby the Physician will induce him to discard the
lisgusting pessary hitherto in use. It is gratifying
to state, that, it has met the decided approbation of
every member of tho Medical Faculty who has
applied it, as well as every patient who has worn
it.
The Subscriber having been appointed m r ent
for tho sale of the above Instruments, nil or
ders addressed to him tv.ll bo promptly attended

IN SENATE. I;'*’-
The Committee on Finance to whom was re
ferred the letter of the Tresurer on the subject
of the description of money to be hereafter re?,
ccivcd in tljg Treasury, have had the same un-"'
der consideration, and beg leave to report— <v
That in (he opinion of your Committee no lc»<
gislation on the Subject is at present necessary—*
that the Banks of this State, front 1 heir returns J,
are in a most sound condition, and so long as
they continue so, it would be invidious to make
any distinction between them.—That in the opi- •
nion of your committee, the Treasurer should'
exercise a sound discretion, and if any of the
Banks of this State should, from any circum
stance, fall into discredit, he should promptly
direct the Tax Collectors to refuse to receive
the paper ofrsuch Banks, and in no case should
they be allowed to receive in payment, any
thing but Gold or Silver, or the bills of specie
paying Banks of this State.
Your Committee therefore beg leave to be
discharged from the further consideration of this
subject.
