T.if universal estimation in which the celebra ted Lu k Pills and PiiokSix Bitters are held, is satisfactorily demonstrated by tlie inert using demand lor them in every state and section of the Union, aud by the volun tary testimonials to their remarkable efficacy winch are every where offered. It is not less Cram a deeply gratifying confidence that they are the means of extensive and in estimable good among bis afflicted fellow creature* than from interested considera tions, and the proprietor of these pre eminently successful medicines is desirous (•('keeping them constantly before the pub lic eye.—The saleo r every pddinttional box and bottle is a guarantee that some person will be relieved from a greater or less ilcgres of suffering, and be improved in genera! health ; for in no case of suffering from disease can they be taken in vain. The proprietor lias never known or been in formed of an instance in which they have tailed to do good. In the most obstinate cases of chronic dyspepsia, torpid liver, rheum."ism, asthma, nervous and billions bead ache-, costiveuess, piles, gener and debility, sciol’ufcous swelling anil ulcers, scurvy, sail rheum and all other chronic affections of the organs and membranes, they ellect cures with a rapidity and permanency which few .persons would theoretically be lit ve, but to which thousands have testified from happy experience. In colds and roughs, which, if neglected, superinduce the "most fatal disease of the lungs, and indeed ihe viccra in general, these medicines, if taken but for three or four days, never fail. Taken at night, they so promote the insensible perspira ion, and so relieve the system of febrile action and feculent ob structions, as to produce a most delightful sense ol convalescence in the morning: and though the usual symptoms of a cold should partially return during the day, the repetition ot a suitable dose at the next hour of bed time will almost invariably effect permanent reliel without lurther aid. 1 heir effect upon levers of a more acute and mor violent kind is not less sure and speedy I taken in proportionable quantity; and persons retiring to bed with inll amatory svslums of the most alarming kind, will awake with the gratifying consciousness that the tierce enemy has been overthrown, and can easily be subdued. In the same way, viceral liirgesence, though long estab lished, and viceral intlamations however critical, will yield—the former to small ami the latter to large doses of the Life Pills ; and so also hysterical affections, hypocon driocism, restlessness, and very many other varieties of the Netiro'ical class of diseases, yield to the efficacy of the Pbretnix Billers.

JOHN CHAIN, S October 16, 1839. 29 td PROPOSALS - For publishing in the town of Irwinton, Al abama, a weekly Newspaper, to be entitled the IMW I \ TON CSB MO\ I V I* K. HAVING heard many complaints of tho want of a Newspaper in Glib town, (t<? be conducted in a gentlemanly-like manner,) the undersigned have been induced, by the earnest solicitations of many friends, to em bark in tfie undertaking. In assuming the duties consequent upon such an enterprize, we feel deeply conscious of the responsibility which will devolve up on us; and knowing, too, the diversityof the human mind, we cannot flatter ourselves that we will be able to please all. Bill, so far as our humble abilities exten 1, we will at all times be found striving to elevate tiie standard of truth and coiiruct moral principles. It will be our object to ad vance rhe prosperity of the Easier! section of our State, abounding, as it does, in so many natural advantages, and. as a necessa ry consequence, especially to promote the interest ol our own town. Our aim will be to render our paper useful and valuable to all classes of the community—in short Lit erature, Useful Information, Agriculture, Foreign and D .mestic Intelligence, will each receive a due portion of our attention. In legard to Politics, we deem it neces sary to s.iv, that we shall give the general Political intelligence of the whole country, while, at the same time, as conductors of a Fp.ee Press, we wHI fearlessly, atid without favor or afifectioii, advocate and support all such measures as will, in our opinion, pro mote our general prosperity as a people, and the perpetuity of our rights and liberties. Our piper will be purely Republican, as practised by those great Apostles of Liberty, JEFFERSON and MADISON —prefering them as our guide, rather than the nkw lioht, self-stiled Democratic Republi cans of the pieseut day. We are -‘strict constructionists” of the federal Compact, and shall, therefore, oppose all schemes ol Internal Improvement, except by the States themselves, as a part of that “American System” which has proved so ruinous to the South, and which was attempted to be fas tened upon us, under that most plausible and specious pretext, the “GENERAL W ELFARE.” Believing, as we do, that it is the duty of every good citizen to cher ish with jealous care the "Umos or the States, and the Sovereignty or the States,” and as this cannot be done without a strict adherence to the Constitution itself, we shall not be sparing in our denunciations of the attempts which are and have been made bv the late as well as the present Ad ministration. to control, not only the mon ied facilities of die Government, but ol the entire country. With regard to the ques tion which is now agitating the country rela tive lo the Currencv, we now, unhesitating ly de-dare our hostility to the thrice-reje •*- o\l Sub-Treasury System, tending as it doe, in our opinion, to an increase of Execut'-e power, which lias already been claimed s«.d exercised to an alarming extent, m more .n stances than one, if not by the present in cumbent. by his immediate predecessor, m whose “footsteps’ ne is endeavoring to tread. We expect to encounter many perils, ma ny adverse winds ; ygt aided by the strong breath of public- favor and support, the trade winds of our world must wait us clear of our troubles —we dare raise our anchor, unlurl our sheets, and venture boldly upon our new snd untried course. What shoals and qu.ck aands, what rocks and hidden perils await ns “alas, we know not!” LJt us but clear the harbor and get fairlv “under way,” then we. will fear nothing. Nor is this the vam boast made when danger is yet in the distance. It is our firm determination, made >",er se rions thought, and weighing well the dt.h culties we are to meet with. The Chronicle will be issued as early as the necessary materials can be obtained from New York, which will be in Decem ber or early in January next. It will be printed on a large imperial sheet, eontam ing twenty-four columns, with entire new , v ,,e, and will not be surpassed in beauty by my paper in the Southern country.

It PROSPECTUS OF THE SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER. f I YHlsf is a monthly Magazine, devoted -I- chiefly to Literature, bur occasion ally finding room also for articles thn fall • within the scope of Science ; and not pro ! Basing an entire disdain of tasteful selections, '. though its matter has been, as it will nm | tiime to be, in the main, original. Party Politics, and controversial llieol oiiy, as far as possible, are jealously exclu ded. They are sometimes so blended with discussions in literature or in moral sci ence, otherwise unobjectionable, as to gain admittance for the sake of the more valu able matter to which they adhere; bu» whenever that happens they are incidental., only, not primary. They are dross, tolera ted only because it canuot well be severed from the sterling ore wherewith it is incur- ; porated. Reviews and Critical Notices, oceu py their due space in the work: and it is the Editor’s aim that they should have a three fold tendency—to convey, in a condensed form, such valuable truths or interesting in cidents as are embodied in the works re viewed,—to direct the readers attention to books ilia! deserve to be read—and to ware him against wasting time and money upon that large number, which merit only to be burned, in this age of publications that by their variety and multitude, distract and o verwhelmn every undiscriminating student, impartial criticism, governed by the views just mentioned, is one of the most inesti mable and indispensable of auxiliaries to him who does wish to discriminate. Essays and Tales, having in view utility or amusement, or both; Historical sket ches — and Reminisences of events too min ute for History, yet elucidating it, and heiglitning its interest—may be regarded as forming the staple of the work. And of indigenous Poetry, enough is publish ed—sometimes of no mean strain—to man ifest-and to cultivate the growing poetical taste and talents of our country. The times appear, for several reasons, to demand such a work—and not one alone, but mauyt The public mind is feverish and irritated still, from recent political strifes: The soft, assuasive inllueuce of Lit erature is needed, to allay that lever, and soothe that irritation. Vice and folly are rioting abroad :—They should be driven by indignant rebuke, or lashed by ridicule, in to ilieii fitting haunts. Ignorance lords it over an immense proportion of our peo pie:—Every spring should be set in motion, to arouse the enlightened, and to increase th>‘ir number; ro that the great enomy ol popular government may no longer brood, like a portentous cloud, over the destinies of our country. And to nc< omplish all these ends, what more powerful agent can be employed, than a periodical on the plan nf the Messenger; if that plan be but car ried out in practice? The South peculiarly requires such an agent. In all ilie Union, south of Washing ton, there are but two Literary periodicals! Northward of tint city, there are probably at least twenty-five or thirty ! Is this con trast justified by the wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or the actual literary taste of the Southern people, compared with those of the Northern? No : for in wealth, talents and taste, we may justly claim, at least, an equality with our brethren mil a domestic institution exclusively our own, beyond all doubt, alf'ords ns, if we choose, twice the leisure for reading and writing which they enjoy. It was from a deep sense of this local want that the word Southern was engrafted on this periodical: and not with any design to nourish local prejudices, or to adwocate sup posed local interests. Far from any such thought, it is the Editor's fervent wish, to sec the North aud South hound endearing ly together, forever, in the silken bands of mutual kindness and allection. lar from meditating hostility to the north, lie has al ready drawn, anil he hopes hereafter to draw, much of his choicest matter thence; and happy indeed will lie deem himself, should Ins pages, by making each region know the other better contribute in any es sentia! degree to dispel the lowering clouds that now threaten the peace of both, and to brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of fraternal love. The Southern Literary Messenger has now been iu existence fouryears the pre sent No commencing the fifth volume. How far it has acted out the ideas here ut tered, is not for the Editor to say; he be lieves, however, that it tails not further short of them, than human weakness usually makes Practice fall short ol riieory. CONDITIONS. 1. The Southern Literary Messenger is published in monthly numbers, of 64 large superroyal octavo pages each, on the best ol paper, and neatly covered, at 35 a year payable in advance. 2. Or five new subscribers, by sending theii names and S2O at one time to the edi tor, will receive their copies for one year, for that sum, or at $4 for each. 3.
