GREAT CLEARING-OUT SALE OF DRY GOODS. T HE determination ot the manager of this establish ment to carry into effect new arrangements, to take place on the first of March, 1845, renders it important, as well as absolutely necessary, that the entire and valuable stock of DRY GOODS be for next seventy days, thrown upon the market, to be disposed of at some price or other ‘ Cost or no CosL However unreasonable it may appear, yet the subscriber deems it absolutely necessary to make the sacrifice, in order to close up bis past and present busi ness previous to March, 1845. We have no time to par ticularize, but would merely say, that we have got to dis pose of a great many goods in a shott time. This is to be accomplished by cheap prices—and the People shall have these prices for the next seventy days. Thankful for the favors of a benevolent public in times past, the subscriber takes this method to say, that a continuance of tlie saute will aid us much in closiag up our business with despatch. GEORGE CLARK, People’s Store. Macon. December 24. 13 BRAft DRETH FILLS. Troth Akin to Aature. H AVE you pain’s 1 Be thankful. It is a vigorous ef fort of Nature to throw off morbific matter. From what may the morbific matter arise 1 From a bruise, or unwholsome air which has becOtne mixed with the blood, not incorporated in it, but which is liable to taint the whole mass if not speedily removed. Or the pain may arise from bile which has become bad, rancid, putrid, in consequence of the want o( power in the proper organs to discharge it.— This pais which so FRIGHTENS people isonly the symp toms c,f the efforts of Nature, (or the vital principle of the blood,) to extel the PECANT or impure matter, which would otherwise destroy the human fabric. All diseases are of the solids or fluids, or both. When we have pain in our head, or in our foot, in our throat or in our back os bowels, let us bnt be satisfied, that it is produced by the ef forts of our blood to throjf out morbific matter, and if this be so, if we can but believe and um.ersiand this, our cure w’lTbe easy and generally sure. For our course will then be to help Nature to throw off the morbid matter, not to taxe away the blood. For the blood. EVERY DROP WE HAVE IS REQUIRED TO INSURE ULT1- MATE HEALTH to the body, we must NOT LOSE A DROP; neither must we use any medicines internally which are uot perfectly hannless, if applied externally to the body. So we must not use any of Ihe prepara-ions of mercury, neither must ice use any vegetable medicine of CORROSIVE POWER. In orderto discriminate between Truth, which is eternal, and conjecture, which is like a transient vision, we must be guided by the light of EXPERIENCE. To what does experience direct 7 TolheFREE USE OFDR.BRAN- DRETH’S PILLS in all cases of bonify suffering. As this advice is followed. SO ^VILL TIIE HEALTH OF THE BODY BE. The writer has long used them, and lias never found them fail of imparling relief. In all acute diseases let Braudrclh Pills and mild diet be used, and the patient will soon be restored to good health. In chrunic complaints let the Pills he used as often as convenient, by which means the vitality of the blood will be improved, and a crisis will be generally brought about: the disease being changed to acute, a few large doses of Pills and a few days confinement to the house, will change the chronically dis eased individual to a sound man. This is no figure of the imagination; it can be proved by a thousand matter-of-fact men who have experienced it. REMEMBER, in all ca ses of disease, no matter whether it be a cold or a cough ; whether it be asthma or consumption: wlictner it be rheu matism or pleurisy: whether it be typus of fever-and-ague, or bilious lever: cramp or hooping cough oi’measels ; wheth er it be scarlet fever or small pox ; that the Pills known as Braiidreth’a Pills, will surely do more than all the medi cines ::f the Drug Stores for your restoration to health, and v/hat is more will surely do you no harm. TRUSTTO BRANDRETH S PILLS, take them ao as to produce a brisk effect, and your sickness will be the affair of a day or two. while those who are too wise to fol low this common sense advice. w>ll be sick for months.— Let the sick enquire of the agents for Brandreth’s Pills whether these things he so or not. Let them enquire among their friends and ask the same question. Verily if EVI DENCE is wanted it shall be procured. To the Sick, let me say, use the BRANDRETH FILLS Is the best advice mortal man can give you.

This isto-certify, that I have been afflicted wich Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, and Liver Complaint, nnd Costive ness for the last eight or nine years, during which time I had taken, as well os I recollect, about sixty boxes of Beckwith’s Pills, twelve boxes of Peters’ Pills, and a number of boxes of Champion’s and B.undreth's Pills, all of which afforded me but little or no relief. At last. 1 was recommended to try Doctor Spencer’s Vegetable Pills, AND weli. I did ; for I never had but one attack of the Sick Headache after I commenced taking the Pills, (now about six months.) and I candidly confess, that I have de-, rived more real benefit from the use of Spencer’s Pills, than from all the other Medicines and Pills that I have ever taken, and T would earnestly recommend them TO ALL. as being in my opinion the best medicine in use for all lingering complaints. The Pills have done me so much giKtd. that I would not feel willing to be withuut them for five dollars a hex; and I cannot hut feel very grateful to Dr. Spencer for having prepared such a valuable medi cine, and the distribution ofit is conferring a very great favor on the public, as it is a thing of the utmost import- ance that every family should have a supply of Doctor Spencer's truly valuable Pills constantly on hand.

SPENCER’S VEGETABLE PILLS “The skilful physician altall lilt ut> liis head, in the sight of the great men of the earth, lie shall be in admiration; fur lie hath prepared his medicines out of the herbs of the field j and he that is wise will not abhor them.’’ Physicians, medical men, and philosophers, have all agreed that nature has prepared a remedy for every dis ease. A little reflection must convince every one of the truth contained in tit's remark. Dr. 8pencer's Fills are a vegetable remedy, and all-powerful in removing disease. They may be taken with impunity at all times without re gard to diet or exposure, and without the debilitating ef fects consequent on taking other medecines. They have the united testimony of the whole medical profession in heir favor, nnd from their decision there is no appeal.— tPersous wishing topurchase cannot betoo particular to get Spencer’s Pills, as there are scorps of unscentific prepara tions put on sale almost every day, of doubtful efficacy.— Price 25 cents per box. will, full directions.
