The Issi e. The positive denial of the truth of
Mr. Crampton’s statement to Lord Clarendon rela
tive to the alleged admission of Mr. Clayton con
cerning the indisputable validity of Britain’s title
to. the Island of Ruatau, made by Mr. Clayton, and
backed by the testimony of Senator Fish, who is
said to aver that Mr. Crumpton told him precisely
the reverse of what he wrote to his Government,
lias created a great flurry among those connected
with the different foreign Legations at this point.
It seems to complicate the difficulties of the posi
tion of Mr. Crampton in Washington, and proba
bly to make it more desirable for him to remain
here; as, to retire in such a state of tilings as thus
surround him personally, must be exceedingly
trying to a gentleman of his sensibilities.

GEORGIA MEDICATED SOAP.
The Empire State of the South still ahead in her
Improvements.
rgniHS article compare favors
« bly with any of like character
in the known world.
I find that by putting it in the form I wllf|
of a Soap it gives it a decided advan RSil
; tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment,
j or Ointment that can be made for the cure of dis
j eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vir
] lues from being impaired by age or climate, and
renders it very convenient for use.
Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm
less, as it contains no mercurial or other prepara
tion injurious to the patient. This article, there
fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers,
Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles,
i Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt
Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore
Eyes, Bone Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac.,
extract scurf and dandruff from Ihe head, thereby
preventing premature baldness. It is also one of
! the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will
cure the Fistula and Scratches in horses; extract
i tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a
superior dentrilice to the teet t. For shaving soap,
! it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, and
curing such sores as may be on the face.
In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and
j particular old sores, this soap has proved a balm
indeed, by its wonderful healing powers.
I can procure certificates innumerable were it
necessary, but believing that a single cake is only
requisite to prove its efficacy as above stated, anil
wishing to avoid everything like humbuggery, I
leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not
doubting they will then declare this to be the tie
plus ultra of the age in the healing art.

Augusta Market, May 20, 1 P. M.
COTTON.—The present condition of the cotton
market might be very properly reported by with
holding all remarks, or reference to it. After dili
gent enquiry we have found no one who would
give us quotations that could be considered relia
ble. The same condition has prevailed during the
week that exists to-day.
The rains throughout (he cotton growing States
have given encouragement to planters; and al
though the season has been very backward, fair
crops are confidently predicted. Corn and wheat
also appear very prosperous, and large yields are
looked for with confidence.
GROCERIES. —We have no change to report in
the prices of the leading articles, although Sugar*
and Molasses are very firm with a slightly advanc
ing tendency. Coffee is not so firm in price as pre
viously reported. In other articles we hear of no
change.
CORN.—There is more of this article pressing
on the market than for some weeks past. It is not
an easy matter to engage large lots at 55 cents, al
though we have heard of no sales below that
price. It is selling from 55 to 60 cents.
FLOUR.—The market is abundantly supplied,
and with some of the best quality of country dour
we have seen for some months. It is selling from
*6.50 to $9. City Mills are quoted at $7.50 for
Superfine, and $9.50 for Extra Family.
BACON.—The trade for this article is regular,
and prices moderately firm. Tennessee hog round
10* cents, although we heard of one sale of ln,-
000 pounds at a fraction less. Citv cured meat, as
previously reported. St. Louis, hog round, 10* ;
hams 12 to 15, shoulders 9*, and ribbed sides
10* cents.
1,1 \ E STOCK. Good fat Beeves have improved
in price, and 8 cents can now be obtained, and
from 5 to 9 cents for Shoots.
BANK STOCK.—The stocks of all solvent Banks
are in good request. We heard of the sale of Geor
gia Railroad, within the past few days, at par.

SIGNS OF THE TIMES.
UNLOOKED FOR TESTIMONY.
r«t|o DYSPEPTICS—Says the “ Spirit of
-l the Age lt is not an insignificant fact—
rather an important one —and indicative of the
long promised “good time corning,” that we have,
with increasing frequency, additions from the ranks
of regularly educated physicians to the number o
those who have humanly come forward and inter
posed between the Patent Medicine Quacks and
their innumerable dupes throughout the country.
The evils which have resulted from the success of
a few persons in this line, is, we believe, incalcula
ble. Hosts of venal imitators—groveling pander
ers to their own base passions, avarice, and a pru
! rient ambition, have sprung up on every side and
! flooded the country with foul decoctions, disguised
| by their inodorousness and bad taste, proclaiming
them universal Panaceas for all diseases.
This subject has not, hitherto failed to attract the
j attention of philanthropists, and if it did not re
• ceive that attention which it so evidently demand
j ed, it was because no available means for its sup
pression presented themselves. A remedy is, how
ever, now being applied to the evil, which will not
only abate it, but, finally, and we hope, ere long,
exterminate it.
Regular medical practitioners are now placing
their best prescriptions in a popular form before
thenublic—thus affording the advantages of their
skill and science without the usual consulting fee
in those disorders of ascertained characters, and
which may be treated on known principles. We j
hope that accessions to the number of those physi- \
cians who prefer to seek the sick and heal tliem
rather than repose in dignified retirement of the
profession, waiting “a call,” will increase until the
whole race of humbugs are extant, and people be
assured that a popular medicine is really worth the
wrapper that envelopes it—a rather uncertain mat
ter with some of the nostrums that are now afloat.
We were led into these remarks by a conversa
tion which wc just have had with a gentleman—a
friend, who for years had been a sufferer from
Dyspepsia. We knew him once cheerful, robust
and healthy—and, again, from the effects of this
health-destroying disorder, emaciated, crabbed,
and miserable. Whilst noticing, agreeably, a
great change wrought within a few weeks in his
appearance and manner, he, as if divining our
thoughts, asked if we did not think he was im
proving. and proceeded to tell us of the wonderful
properties and great value as a remedy of
“ BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC REMEDY.” Bliss Hum
bug ! cried we. But a letter from a lady in New
York recommended our friend to try, as he ex
pressed it, this Blissful remedy, and his serious
ness in attesting his restoration to health, being
owing to its use, our doubts vanished, and we de
termined to give our readers the advantage of our
friend’s experience in a short paragraph. Should
this meet, the eve of l)r. Bliss, No. 20, Reekman
street, New York, whom we don’t know from
Adam, he will accept our thanks, as the medium |
of restoring to us a friend, estranged by disease, I
in the health and cheerfulness of disposition in j
which we formerly knew him.
As we have not noticed in any of our exchanges !
mention of this remedy, we would say to Dr. 8., |
place your discovery within the reach of all—ad- I
vertise —let your light shine, even though it mav I
not be reflected in the “ Spirit of the Age.” ' |

IN \ ER \ family should at once procure a hot
J tie of the great Arabian remedy for man and
beast, called 11. G. FARRELL’S ARABIAN LINI
MLNT. li allays the most intense pains in a few
minutes, restores the synovial fluid or joint water,
and thus cures stiff joints ; it penetrates the flesh
to the bone, relaxes contracted cords, cures rheu
matism and palsied limbs of twenty years’ stand
ing ; also, tumors, swelled neck, enlargement of
the glands, and is the best medicine for ailments
of cattle ever discovered, curing sweeny, spavins,
splint, and all diseases which require an internal
application.
Sun Pams of ten years' standing cured by 11. G.
Farrell's Arabian Liniment.
Mr. 11. G. Farrell— Dear Sir: I had been af
flicted with the “Sun Pain ” for the last ten years,
and could never get relief except by bleeding; but
by the use of 11. G. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment,
applied over the temples about three or four times
a day, it was entirely removed, and I have felt
nothing of it since. 1 went into the stable one
night, to apply it to a horse’s sore leg, and being
verv lame he stumbled and fell against mv legs,
crushing and bruising them so badly that they
turned black as my hat, rendering them powerless.
I applied your Liniment, and was well enough in a
lew days to go about again a. usual. 1 also crushed
my finger in a shocking manner, by letting a back
log fall upon it; your Liniment soon healed it up
though. JOHN B. M’GEE.
LaSalle Precinct, Peoria Co., 111., Feb. 6, 1841).
i Esq. Barker, of New Canton, 111., says :!
Mr. H. G. Farrell’s Arabian Linuuent lias cured
some bad cases here, which every other rented y
had failed in ; one was a white swelling and con
tracted cords in the log of a boy twelve years old.
The leg had withered away, and was so contracted
that he had no use of it. Three doctors had tried
their skill upon it iu vain, and he uas fast sinkhut
to the {trace, when the boy’s father was induced to
try H. G. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment. Before tlie
first bottle was used up, ho came to Mr. B.’s store,
and the first words he said wore, “ Mr. Barker, 1
want all that Liniment you have in the store ; the
one bottle I got did my boy more good than all that
had ever been done before.” That boy is now well
and hearty, and has free use of his legs. It is good
for sprains, bruises, cuts, burns and swellings.
Look out for Counterfeits
The public arc cautioned against another coun
terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called
W. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan
gerous of all the counterfeits, because his having
the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good
faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex
ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error
when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil
effects.
The genuine article is manufactured only bv H.
G. Farrell, sole inventor and proprietor, and whole
