INSTRUCTIONS. 1, Seven minutes are allowed for opening and closing the mails at all offices where no particular time is speci fied; but on railroad and steamboat routes there is to be oomore delay than is necessary to deliver and receive ■ 1 1 gs. l.Tbe mail is to be conveyed in preference to passen gers.tnd to tbeireutire exclusion, if its weight and balk require it. 3. Peat oiSce blank*, mailbags,and the special agent* > of me department, on the exhibition of theiri;redeuti«le are to be conveyed without further charge, on mail line* admitting of such conveyance. 4. Mail agents are to be conveyed without charge on the principal railroad and steamboat lines, where the size of the mails and the number of the officers will re quire their employment by the depar .ineut; and in that case,a separate apartment for the assorting and safe keeping of the mail is to be provided by the contractor, under the directionof the department. 5. In all cases there is to be a lorfeiture of the pay of the trip, when the trip is not run; a forfeiture of at least one-fourth part of it when the running or arrival is somar behind them as to lose the connexion with a depending mail; and a forfeiture of a due proportion of it when a grade of service is rendered inferior to that in the con tract. These forfeitures may be increased into high penalties of higher ..mount, according to the nature or frequency of the failure and the importance ot the mail. 6 Fines will be imposed.unless the delinquency besa tisfactoriiy explained in due lime, for failing to take from, ; or deliver at, a post office, the mail,or any part of it; for suffering it to be wet, injured, lost, or destroyed; lor con veyinir it in a place or manner that exposes it to depre dation. loss, onnjtiry; for refusing after demand to con vey a mail by any coach, rail road car, or steamboat, which the contractor regularly runs on the route beyond the specified number of trips in the contract, and for not ar- ' riving at the time set; and for setting up or running an express to transmit commercial intelligence in advance ; of the mail, a penalty will be exacted equal to a quarter’s pay 7. The Postmaster General may annul the contract for ! repeated failures; for violating the post office laws; tor j disobeying the instructions of the depaitment; forrefus- \ iug to discharge a carrier when required by the depart- ; incut; for assigning the contract without the consent of ' the Postmaster General, or for setti gup or running an | express us aforesaid. 8. The PosimastcrGeneral may alter the contract, and | alter the schedule, he allowing a pro rata increase of \ compensation, w ithin the restrictions imposed by law, For the additional service required, or for the increased speed, if the employment of additional stock or carriers is rendered necessary; but the contractor may, in such case,relinquish the contract, on timely notice, if he pre fers it to the change. The Postmaster General may an nul the contract or curtail the service, and pay when he wishes to dispense with the service in w hole or in part, «r place a higher or different grade of service on the route, he allowing one mouth’s extra pay ou the amount dispensed with. 9. The payments will be made through drafts on post offices or otherwise, after the expiration of each quarter, say in February ,May. August, and No\ ember. 10. The distances are given acccording to the best in formation; but no increased pay will be allowed, should they prove to be greater than is advertised, iftha places are correctly named. 11. The Postmaster General is prohibited by law from knowingly making a contract for the trnsportation of the mail with any person who shall have entered into any comhinaiion, or propose ! to enter into any combination, to prevent the making of any bid for a mail contract by any other person or peisons. or who shall have made any agreement, or shall have given or performed, or promised to give or perform any consideration to do,or not to do any thing whatever to induce any other person not to bid for a mail contract. Particular attention is called to the 28th section of the act of IS-ffi, prohibiting combinations to prevent bidding. 12. A bid received after time,to wit; the 10th March next, at 9 a. m., or without the guaranty required by law, or that combi lies several routes in one *uin or compensa tion, cannot be considered in competition with a regular proposal not adj uged to be extravagant. 13. A bidder may offer, w here the irmsportatioiicallcd for in the advertisement is difficult or impraticable at cer- j tain seasons, to substitute ? o inferior mode ofe.onveyance, or to intermit service a speefied number of days, weeks, or months He may prop© eto omit an office that is inac cessible, or is not on t e stage road, the railway, or at a steam boat landing, as the case may be; or lie may offer to substitute an inferior mode of supply in such cases He may propose different days and hours of departure and arrival, provided no more running time is asked, and it is ohviaus that no mail connexion or other public ac commodation is prejudiced. He may aok for more run ning time to the trip .during u specified number of days, at certain seasons ot peculiarly bad reads; but beyond these changes, a proposal for service different from the advertisement will prevent its being considered in com petition w ith a regular bid notset aside for extravagance; and w here a hid contains any of the above alterations, their disadvantages will be estimated in comparing it with other proposals. 14. Th ere should be but one route bid for in a proposal. ! 15. The route, the service, the yearly pay, the, bidder’s name and residence, and the name of cadi member of the firm, where a company offers, shou'd be distinctly slated —also the mode o r conveyance, if a higher mode than on horsehark is intended. 16. The bid should be sent underscal,addressed tothe First Assistant Postmaster General, wiili “Mail Proposals in the State of ,” written on the face of the b iter; j and should he despatched in time lo be recceved by or before the 10th March next, at 9 o’clock, a. m. 17. The contracts are to be executed by or before th* Ist Julv next. 18. Postmasters at offices situated upon or near rail roads, but more than eighty rods from a depot, will. Im mediately after the Ist April next, report that fact to the | department,stating their exact distance from the railroad depot, and how otherwise supplied with the mail, to ena ble the Postmaster General lo direct the proper supply to be made from the railroad by mail messengers, from and after the Ist July next. 19 Under the act of 3d March. 1815. the route is to he for faithful performance, w Ithout reference to“ilfie*no(Tc of transportation than maybe necessary to provide for the due celerity, certainty, and security of such trans portation. When the lowest bid proposes a mode of conveyance that is inadequate for the route in respect to the certain ty, security, and celerity of the mails, aside from any ac commodation for travel, it will not be entitled to the route -20. When the biddoesnot name amode of conveyance, itwill be taken and understood!© beforthe lowest inode of conveyance to wit j on horeback. When it proposes to carry according to the advertisement, and no inode of conveyance is stated for the route in the, advertisement, it will be considered as offering only for horseback con veyance. 21. Since the passage of the act of March 3, 1845, a new description ofbid has been received. It specifies no mode of conveyance, bnt engages to carry the mail with certainty, celerity, and security, using the terms of the law. These bids are called,from the manner in which thevare designated onthe bonks of the department, L 'etur bid.” It has been decided, after mature consideration, that a bid proposing a specific inode of conveyance of as high a grade as two horse coach transportation is to bo preferred tothe star bid. The experience of the depa t ment enables it to lay down the following rules, viz ; When the mail on the route is not so larirc as to require two horse coach conveyance, a star bid, if the lowest, will be. preferred to the specific hid. 22. When the mails arc of such size and weight as to render it necessary or expedient, in reference to them alone, to provide two-horse coach conveyance, the spe cific bid. though the highest will be preferred to the star bid. to the extent of a moderate difference in the r-ompen sation, in case the difference is not such as to interfere with the policy of the new law, which looks to a reduc tion in the cost of transportation. Exceptions, however, may beallowed where the star bid ifmade by the present owner of the stock on the route, and it is manifest that the reasons for preferring the specific bid do not exist in iiis case. 23. On routes of the hsghest class, where four-horso j coach or steamboat transportation is required hy the size and importance of the mails, the preference for the spe cific bid will be, if necessary carried to a greater extent of difference than on *hc mferor coach routes, subject, however, to the exceptions above stated. 24. A mollification ofa bid, in any of itsessential terms is tantamount to a new bid, aud cannot be received, so ns to interfere with regular competition, after the last hour set for receiving bids. C.

THE subscriber being the only possessor in the United States, of the recipe fur preparing IIAUTERI YE S CHEM ICALSOLUI ION, for which ihe Society ofEncouragement and Ag riculture of France, after testing the value of it for three consecutive years, through a commission composed of Scientific Agriculturists and Che mis's, and after their favorable report, awarded the inventor a premium of 3.000 francs, and a gold modal. The stimulating power of the ingredients com posing this solution is such, that by steeping the Seed in it, the effect is not only to accelerate the germination, but to render the vegetation more vigorous, by its useful action as a hygroscopic; j the gaseous emanations of carbonic acid, and ; carbonated hydrogen, nourish the plant, and j make it more productive to the Farmer, by pre i venting rust and the attacks of insects. The numerous advantages arising from the use ! of this Sleep, are —Ist, that it is the direct appli j cation of pabulum to tire seed, instead of the i ground. 2d. It supersedes all brinlngs, lime, j plaster, and all other troublesome operations now I in use. £d. It causes a much more speedy and hardy growth; anil lastly, by maturing much sooner, ( we think. 10 days,) it will evade the rust, and consequently, give the husbandman a more profitable harvest; also, the cost is moderate, (igs for the barrel of 33 to 35 gallons ) DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE CHEMICAL SOLUTION. Put in a tight tub as much of the Solution ts is required for the quantity of Seed you have j to soak—throw in the seed and let it remain, as follows • WHEAT and RYE, 6 Hours or more. OATS and BARLEY, 3 Hours or more. CLOVER ami O THER GRASS SEED, 2 Hours. INDIAN CORN, 18 to 24 Hours. After being soaked, dry it through a hair sieve before sowing. CO TTON SEED.— Southern Planters would find a great benefit by using this Solution as a steep for their Cotton Seed before planting. The longer the Seed stand soaking the better. Alter i having been soaked, the Seeds must be drained in a sieve or basket, and immediately planted. For the information of those who wish second testimony on this matter, he subjoins the opinion of some well known Agriculturists, who tried t lie preparation on Wheat last Fall, and now renew their orders for an enlarged quantum for spring I seedmgs. Extract of a letter from JOHN S. SKIN NER, Esq., dated February 15, 1345. Your So lution was tried, not by me, but my own son, F G. Skinner; the Wheat he steeped in it was sowed very late, yet ho says the effect is very ap parent and highly beneficial. I shall recommend the trial of the Solution to all my friends next spring, for their Oats, Coin, &c. Col. N, GOLDSBOROUGH. writes, March I Gth, 1845; Three bushels were seeded in stiff white oak land, and here I have every reason to be well satisfied with the experiment; the Wheat came up theee days earlier, and grew up with as tonishing vigor, and lias maintained a superiority over the adjacent Wheat, which was brined ami limed and seeded the same day in land of the same quality, it has constantly appeared thus far as if the land in which the Wheat sltccped in the Solution was seeded had been manured, and j the ether not; whereas the whole was dressed the | preceding spring with barn-yard manure, &c. Commodore JONES, U. S. Navy, writes: *‘As to the effects of the Solution on the growing crop, &c., I think very favorable. It has added much to the appearance as well as to the growth, &c.” (Order, double the quantum used last Fall.) Green Valley Farm, August 27, 131 G have tried your solution, last fall, on Wheat. 1 sowed a piece of land of three acres, one half the seed any soaking. One acre and a half, with the | ! seed soaked, gave 214 bushels Wheat, the other i one and a half acres only yielded 12|; the Wheat weighed 594 pounds pier bushel, while that not I soaked, only 575. The Wheat soaked came up nearly four days before the other, and harvested twelve days sooner. PHILIP MARSO. Mr. A. M AUGE, of Augusta, Ga., is ap pointed ray sole agent for this State. L. MONTROP.

IN offering this valuable medicine to the people of Georgia, for the relief and cure of many d is eases incident to a southern climate, 1 do not claim for it infalibility; neither do I say it will cure all diseases. Butin Chronic Liver Affections and Dys- : pepsia, 1 can confidently adv ise and recommend its j use, from my personal observation and use of the article in my own practice. This article is favora bly received wherever it has been used. lam al lowed to refer to .Mr. George Heard of Troup, Mr. John Warren of Columbus, Mr. McKaffee of Cobb, .Mr. Asbnry Hull of Athens, Mr. William U. Ter rell of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dawson of Lagrange; to which a great number of names might be added, who bear their testimony to its value. Dr. Henry Branham has used this medicine in his ow n case, and lias prescribed it to many others, gives it as bis opinion, that it is one of the safest and most valua ble medicines that can be used in imperfect diges tion, liver complaints, constipation and irregular slate of the bowels. It is useful in bilious com- i plaints, to persons recovering from bilious fevers, j and in sick or nervous head-ache. To pregnant women, who are subject to costiveness, this medi- I cine is well suited. In regulating the state of the ; stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion, it is I particularly useful. I could append a long list of certificates, but for bear, prefering to rely on the virtues of the medi cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle and certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific.

"JAYNE’S ALTERATIVE. THIS valuable preparation combines all the medicinal virtues of those articles, which long experience has proved to possess the most safe and ’efficient alterative and deobstruent properties, for the cure of Scrofula King’s Evil, ll hite Swell ings Ulcers; Scrofulous, Cancerous and Indolent Tumours; Mercurial and Syphilitic Affections, Rheumatism, Gout, Scttrvey, Neuralgia or Tic j Douloureux, Cancer, Goitre or Bronchocele, [swelled Neck,] Enlargements of the Bones, Joints, Glands or Ligaments or of the Ovaries, Liver, Spleen, Kid neys, tyc. All the diseases of the Skin, such as Teller, Ringworm, Biles, Pimples, Carbuncles tyc.. Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, Nervous Diseases, Dropsical Swellings, Constitutional Disorders and diseases originating from a depraved or Impure state of the Blood or other fluids of the body. The proprietor of this Alterative would most re spectfully assure the public that he has not offered this preparation to their notice without due reflec tion, and close and rigid study, nor until alter twelve years’ experience had manifested its great superiority over every other article of the kind, — ! and he now recommends it with confidence, fully ! believing that the above combination of medicine will effectually eradicate from the system a class I of disease some of which have heretofore been con j sidered incurable. He has prescribed it in almost every variety of disease and with unparalleled success, especially in cutaneous affections, cancerous, scrofulous and scorbutic diseases, and diseases originating from obstruction or enlargement of the glands or impuri ty of the blood. Cancer and Cancerous Tumors. He has used this preparation in upwards of twen ty well defined eases of cancer and cancerous tu ' mors, and iu every case but one with perfect and | entire success. Uronchocele or Goitre, (Swelled Neck.) He has prescribed it in over a hundred cases of goitre,and it has never failed in a single instance to completely remove the disease. Not a solitary ease of failure. All were cured. The success he lias met with in curing broncho cele and cancerous affections has convinced him that these dangerous and horrible diseases may be removed with as much certainty as Fever and A*be. He does not wish to be understood as say ing that they can be cured as soon as Fever anil Ague, but with as much certainty; and further, that he has good reason for believing that this prepara tion will not only t ure these diseases when formed, but that it destroys the virus or poisonous principle lurking in the sysletn, from whit h that peculiar class of diseases, as well as that of scrofula emanate. Scrofula—King’s Evil. 'l'his preparation has been used in numerous cases ofScrofula, King’s Evil, and scrofulous swellings, and always with the most deci led success. Skin Diseases. He has prescribed it in a great variety of cutane ous affections, and found it successful in curing salt rheum, •«<k biles, blotches, pimples,murphew and jaunuictAl skin, &c. Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint. It lias been used in numerous cases of liver com plaint and Dyspepsia, and with the happiest effect. Tic-Douloureux. It has been used in several cases of Neuralgia, and in every case it was successful. Rheumatism. This preparation hasbeen prescribed in a great many cases of chronic rheumaism, and in every casein which it was used until the system became affected by the medicine, the disease was removed’ Gout. A number of cases of gout have been cured by this preparation. In one ol these cases, the man had been afflicted with it so severely for thirteen ; years as to entirely disable hint from business, and I for live months immediately previous to his taking the Alterative he had been confined to his room; but before lie had finished the tiiird bottle, he was enabled to walk about the streets and soon afier re turned to his business, from which he had so Jong been excluded by his afflictions. Dropsical Swellings, This medicine increases t lie powers of digestion, excites the absorbents into healthy exercise, by 1 which watery or calcareous depositions, and all j r-rmtiiry 1 Mtila rpcmcnlx wre reduce') It in>p;,rt>, : tone and vitality to the whole system, removing sick and morbid headaches, giddiness, wandering ■ pains and nervous affections. In fact, in every case where the medicine has been taken fur some lime, no mailer fur wh .t pur pose, the general health of the patient lias always been improved by it. In conclusion, the proprietor would say that some of the most astonishing cases of skin diseases, can cer, brunchocele.and scrofula, have been cured by this medicine, that have ever been recorded; but want of room in this sheet precludes their publica tion at this lime. CANCER. An interesting case cured hy Jayne's Alterative. In the spring of 1831, a cancerous tumor appear ed in the right breast of Mrs. Phoebe, wife of Peter i Stretch, of Salem, N. J. It was examined hy many Physicians, and was considered by all as cancerous, ■ and besides bore all the characteristic, marks of . one. All probable means of removing it w ere used j without the slightest benefit. It continued to in ! crease both in size ami painfulness, until all hope of saving her life, but by a painful operation, was abandoned, which, after a consultation of eminent Physicians, was performed, Jan. Ist, 1332, by Dr. John Rhea Barton, assisted by Dr. Redman, the i proprietor, and two other medical gentlemen. The whole and entire right breast was removed, and af i ter examination of the tumor, was pronounced by j all present a cancer of the most malignant charac ter. In about three months,afterenduring incredi ! ble sufferings, she was enabled, though broken in 1 spirit, to gel about again. .Bhe remained feeble, j and her general health was exceedingly bad, as in ; deed it had been fur several years before. In tiie ! spring of 1837, upwards of five years after her breast 1 had been removed, a painful tumor made its ap- I pearance on the right side, immediately over tlie I part formerly occupied by the nipple of the right j breast, previous toils removal. This tumor steadi ! ly increased for several months, and became so I painful as to deprived her of rest. The glands un j derthe right arm were enlarged; and scirrhus, and | a hard, irregular, and at times painful tumour, ap i peared in the left breast. No operation could now j arrest the disease. Indeed her whole body appear : ed to he a mass of disease. Her case was cunsid ; e red hopeless. t>he was of a very scrofulous habit, both her parents having died of Pulmonary con | sumption. The experiment was now made with I this Alterative. It was at first given in small | doses, three times a day, and the doses very gradu- I ally, hut steadily increased daily, as lung as she look it, which was about six months, and the skin over and around the tumour was wet night and morning with a strong solution of lodine -and Hy driodate Potash. The tumour continued increas ing in size for about six weeks, and was at times very painful, when the pain suddenly ceased alto gether, and the lumourswelled out at the base,and became soft, and then began to diminish, and con tinued gradually decreasing until every vestige of disease was removed. The tumour in her left breast, and those in her right axilla were also dis persed. No cancerous or scrofulous tumours ever appeared afterwards; and her general health, which had been so had for fourteen years as to make life a burthen, was effectually and permanently restored. The proprietor is in possession of the diseased breast, and those who choose may examine it. He would also say that he could mention over a dozen cases equally interesting, wherein his Alterative has subdued cancerand cancerous tumours, but he has not room hereto record them. Mrs. Sarah Young, of Quinton’s Bridge, N. J., had a goitrous tumour on the left side of her wind pipe, as large as the half of an orange, w hich was cured by using this Alterative for about four months. Miss R S , South Fourth-street, Phila delphia, was also cured of an enlargement of the throat, which filled the entire spaee between the chin and breast-bone, and extended around on each side of her neck to behind her ears, and from her ears to her shoulders, and produced awful de formity. It commenced growing when she was but five years old, and coniinued gradually’ to in crease until she. was nineteen, at which time she commenced using this Alterative, which she took for seven months, which entirely reduced the en largement; and she has now as smooth and pretty a neck as can be found. The proprietor is nut at liberty to give her name in print, but will refer per sons to her. For sale by WM. K. KITCHEN, sep 28 ly 2 Sole Agent for Georgia. DR. CHRISTIE’S GALVANIC RINGS AND MAGNETIC FLUID. THIS remarkable invention, which has received the almost universal approbation of the medical pro fession of Great Britain, comprises an entirely new ap plication of Galvanism, as a remedial agent, by means of which the ordinary Galvanic Baileries, Electric and Mag netic Machines, Ac., are entirely dispensed with, and the mysterious powers of Galvanism applied w ithout any of the objections which are iuseperable from the gene ral mode now in use. The strong doses, and at irregu lar intervals, in which Galvanism is applied by the Ma chines, has been pronounced, after a lair and impartial trial, to be decidedly injurious, and it was to remedy ibis radical delect, that this new application was pro jected, which after unceasing toil and perseverance, has been brought to its present state of pericctiou. The Galvanic Kings answer all the purposes of the most expensive Machines, and in many other respects are more safe and certain in accomplishing the desired c fleet. The Galvanic Rings, used in connection with the Magnetic Fluid, ae confidently recommended in all d sokdeks which arise from an enfeebled or un heathy STATE OF THE NERVOUS OK VITAL SYSTEM, and these complaints are among the most painful and uni versal to which we are subject. They arise, without ex ception, from one simple cause—a deraugemeul of the Nervous system—audit was in these cases that other “ remedies'’ having so often failed, a new agent whs greatly needed, which it is confidently believed, b*a been found in the proper and judicious application of Galvanism. The Galvanic Rings have been used w ith entiresuc cess in all cases of Rheumatism, acute or chronic, ap plying to the head, face or limbs = Gout, Tic-Dolorei x Toothache, Bronchitis, Vertigo, Nervous or Sick Headache, Indigestion, Paralyses. Palsy. Epilepsy, Fits, Cramp, Palpitation of the Heart, Appoplexy, Stiffness of Joints, Spinal Complaints, Kumbaco, Neuralgia, Nervous Tremors, Dizziness nr the Head, Pains in the Chest and Side. General Debili ty, Deficiency or Nervous and Physical Energy, and all Nervous Disorders. In cases of confirmed Dyspepsia, which is simply a nervous derangement of the digestive organs, they have been found equally sue cessful. Their extraordinary effects upon the system must be witnessed to be believed, and us a certain pre ventive for the preceding complaints they are equal ly recommended. The Kings are of different prices, being made of all sizes, and of various ornamental pat terns,and cau.be worn by the mostdclicute female without the slightest inconvenience. In fact the sensation is rather agreeable than otharw ise. The Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, Bands, Garters, Necklaces, &c. In some cases of a very severe character and of long standing, the power as applied by the Galvanic Rings is not sufficient to arre-ttlie progress of disease and ulti mately to restore health. The iiuprox ed modification in the Galvan c Belts, Bracelets, &<:., entirely reme dies this object ion ; any degree of power that'is required can readily be obtained, and no complaint which the mysterious agent of Galvanism can effect w ill fail to be permanently relieved. These articles are adapted to the waist, arms, wrists, limbs, ancles or any part of ihe body with perfect convenience. The Galvanic Necklaces are n.-ed with greater benefit in cases of Bronchitis or affections of the throat generally ; also in cases of Ner vous Deafness; and with almost uniform success ns a preventive for Apoplexy, Epileptic Fits, aud similar complaints. Christie’s Magnetic Fluid. Is issued in connection with ths Galvanic Rings,and all their modifications. This composition has been pro nounced by the French Chemists to be ono of the most extraordinary discoveries of modern science. It is .be lieved to posof ss a remarkablepow cr of rendlkiiig tub Nerves seiisitive toGalvaiiic actioii, by these mean* causing a circulation of the influence at the scat of di»- ease, and thus giving rapid and permanent relief. No other composition in chemistry is known to produce the same effector to impart a similar properly to the nervous system by means of an outward local application. Tha Macoetic Fluid contains nothing capable of theslight est injury, its application is agreeable, and it is harmless in itsaction as it is beneficial in its result. Full explana tions aud directions accompany it. The combined in ventions arc in every way perfectly harmless; they mre at prices within reach of all, and the discoverer only re quests a fair trial, as a test of their surprising efficacy j and permanent benefit. Christie’s Galvanic Strengthening Plas teis. These articles form another valuable application of the mysterious influence of Galvanism. They are au important adjunct to the genuine Galvahic Ridgsand their modifications, acting upon the same principle, but h iving this advantage of more local application. They arc confidently recommended as a v aluable addition in the speedy cun* of Rheumatism, acute or chronic ; is all nervous complaints,and as a positive remedy incases of Fain and Weakness i i the Chest or Back, Fain in tlio Side, in Asthmatic Affections, and in Weakness or Op pression of the Pulmonary Organs. In Spinal Com plaints: their effects are of tile most decided character, aud they have often been used w ith complete success. Thcv arc al.-o of the greatest adv antage in Fains and Weakness of the Breast, aud arc highly recommended foi many of those complaints to which females are especially liable. As an effectual means for ■"trengthen ii,« »L«> -v.itum when debilitated with disease or other causes ; as a certain aid in Constitutional Weakness, as a Preventive for Colds aud in all affections of the Chest generally the Galvanic Strengthening Plaster will be found of great and permaneniad vantage. In a few words, it embraces all the virtues of the best tonic preparation with the important addition of the Galvenn influence, which is netiherimpaired or exhausted, wliilethe action continues. These articles will be found entirely free from those objections which arc a constant source of com plaint w ilhthe ordinary Plasters in common use.

FOR DYSPEPTICS. rgnilESE BITTERS are purely a vegetable JEL compound, and are ofTered to the pub lic from a principle of benevolence, under the full est conviction that, they will he found a safe and sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia. They have been triumphantly tested not only by some of the most respectable families in the Slate, v\ bu have furnish ed ample testimony as to their decided excellence, hm also by the proprietor, who, fur ten years, suf fered all ibe gloom incident to that distressing dis ease. They possess the peculiar excellence denied to most other Bitters, of not proving injurious by continued use. They contain not a single delete rious ingredient, and, as seen from the directions which accompany each bottle, may be given with entire safely to an infant in the month ll the Colleton is taken regularly ami persever ingly,( which is highly import ant in stubborn cases,) they will, soon alter the use of a few bottles, be found to act on the system like a charm—imparting vigor to the stomach, bracing the nerves, cleans ing the liver, promoting digestion, increasing the appetite,strengthening the chest and voice, reliev ing pains, cramps, and stitches in the breast. They are also most excellent for cholera morbus, habitual cons ti pat ion, sea-sick ness, nausea, proceeding from whatever cause. In cases of general debility, it has proved one of the best remedies, and is there fore highly recommended to elderly people, literary gentlemen, students, and others of sedentary habits. Taken in small doses frequently through the day, they have checked the most violent diarrhoea, and likewise been administered with the happiesleflect n cholera iwfanXum. In all the foregoing complaints, these Bitters will he found effectual ifpersisted in. and taken accord ing to the directions which accompany each bottle. Ami although it lias been testified by several that they are excellent in many others, yet in none other than those above enumerated, is the proprietor will ing to vouch for their efficacy. They were prima rily aud solely intended to cure Dyspepsia. The Colleton Bilters have been eight years be fore the. public; and in consequence of the increas ing demand for this valuable medicine, the proprie tor has entered largely into the business—bottles are procured having “Colleton Bitters” moulded in them—they are also numbered, sealed and stamp ed with an appropriate motto.
