Ti y Dr. A. M. Mauriceau. *
PROFESSOR OF DISEASES OF WOMFV,
[Third Edition, 18 mo.pp. 250. Price 71 00.] |
i $5,000 COPIES SOLD IN THREE MONTHS! i
The great demand )’or this most important work,
; (of which thou.-a,;ds are sold] has compelled the is
sue of another edition. It is intended especially
1 for the married, as it discloses important secrets
; which should be known to them particularly.—•
; Here every female can discover the causes, symp
-1 toms, and the most efficient remedies and most
j certain mode of cure ,in every complaint to which
her sex is subject.
| It is an important question to the married why it ■
is, that we behold so many married females sickly,
I debilitated, and prostrated ? as, also, the causes, !
I and w'hether they are susceptible of remedy. They i
I w'ill here find those important matters, connected
with discoveries in medical and physiological sci
: euce, which meet this question.
This work is destined to be in the handsel every
( . J
) wife and mother who has a regard for her own
health and welfare, as well as that of her husband.
I The revelations contained in its have al- |
; ready proved a blessing to thousands as the innu
merable letters received by the author will attest.
It is of course impossible to convey more fully,
| in a public journal, the various subjects treated of,
as they are of a nature strictly intended lor the
married or those contemplating marriage ; neither
is it necessary, since it is every one’s duty to be- ;
! come possessed of knowledge, whereby the suffer
ings to which a wife, a mother, or a sister mky be |
subject, can be obviated.

NOTICE TO COTTON PLANTERS.
I WILL say to the cotton planters of Georgia and '
feouth Carolina, 1 have taken the shop formerly
I occupied by S. H. Crenshaw, for the purpose of
j manufacturing COTTON GINS, and would also
| inform them that I have engaged Mr. Crenshaw,
who will superintend the manufacturing of them.—
j My gins shall be made of the best materials, ami I
I can say with propriety they are the cheapest gins
! sold in the Southern States, taking the workman
| ship in consideration. I will warrant ray gins to
make cotton equal to any made on any other gins
in the Southern States, giving the true staple pf
| the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and I
! Clear of moats. My gins will be' delivered at the I
purchaser’s residence free of charge and warrant- |
| ed to give ample satisfaction.
All orders addressed the subscriber will meet
; with prompt attention; repairing done in good style ■
and at short notice. All o'd gins of 10 inch I 1
1 will repair and put them on improved principles,
and .also warrant them to make as good cotton as j
any'of the improved gins, and at a much less cost
than a new gin. J. D. HAMMACK.
Crawfordville, Ga., May 4.
i I will say to the planters who in ay "favor Mr.
Hammack with their patronage I will exert all the
ability I have in superintending the shop; and every
gin sent from the shop shall be in complete order
j and warranted to be the cheapest gins ever offered
to the public; and from my long experience in the
business, 1 know the gins cannot be surpassed, al
, though agents from other shops have resorted to
i the contemptible practice of slandering me and
i saying my gins have prostrated me, though it is not
| true. In full confirmation of what 1 sav, I offer a
1 few certificates from gentlemen who have used my |
| gins, and could furnish many more of this kind if
I required. S. R. CRENSHAW.
Dear Sir: I have used the Gin bought of you for
: two years, and I very cheerfully recommend it to
the Cotton planters of Oglethorpe and other coun
; ties of Georgia. It turns off sufficiently fast to
make good Cotton—it being 50 saws—will throw
1 out about 800 lbs. of lint a day. The quality of the i
i Cotton has, in Augusta, ranged half cent higher at I
each of my sales than other sales of those" days
and it has been pronounced by those considered i
competent to judge, as in no way inferior to the
Cara Gin. Yours, very respectfully.
* F. MERIWETHER. !
April 24th, 1847.
j Ocii-crmuifr, Co., April 22, 1847. j
T hive used for the last three vears a machine
that was made by S. R. Qreushaw, of Crawford- i
ville. I consider it one of best Gins I have !
ever seen. Two will gin, with a great :
deal of ease, three Fpcr day, and I do not
think there is a gin in OPofgia that can excel it in
making fine Mr. Crenshaw has 1
sold a great in this county and Elbert, j
and I think that has purchased is
which have ben,
sold in are not a few run light,
pick what is better than all, when the cot
i ton is carried to market it sells for the very highest
price C. S. MERIWETHER.
Cnawford VlLLE, May 4, 1847.
Mr. J. V. Hammock —l certify that I bought of
S. R. Crenshaw, last rear, a forty-five saw anti- 1
friction % Cotton Gin, which performs well and makes
as good cotton as the Carver Gin, in rov«opinion
P. G. RHOME. |
This is to certify that 1 purchased one of Mr. S. ;
R. Crenshaw’s improved anti-friction Cotton Gins !
last year, and find it to be superior to any Gin I
; have ever used. I think it superior to the Carver i
j Gins. It makes superior cotton, giving the true 1
staple of the article, and gins 900 lbs. of clean cot- i
ton per day, and runs very light.

GRISWOLD’S IMPROVED COTTON
GINS.
THE subscriber will continue the manufacture
ol GINS on his usual extensive scale; and
! embraces this opportunity to thank his numerous
customers for their liberal patronage heretofore.
The estimation in which his Gins are held may be
known from the fact of his having sold more than
; two thousand within the last three years; probably
ten to one over any other factory in the State.—
| This evidence of the superiority of his Gins, is ac
| counted for, by his being, the first to introduce the
! late improvements, and keeping the lead, by vear- i
ly adding new ones. His first and second improve
ments, made the quality of cotton perfect, though
some were rather slow, his third made them suffi
ciently fast, it then only remained to make them
more durable and convenient, which has been done
effectually, by several new improvements the pre-
I sent year; besides, he has the exclusive right of the
State, and the privilege of other sections, to furnish !
Reed’s Patent Water Boxes, which are believed to
be ten times more durable than any other, by those
who have made a fair trial of them, and are'infalli
bly secure against fire by liriction. His fine Gins
will gin Mastodon Cotton as well as any Saw Gin
can.« His agents will visit planters generally, and 1
exhibit specimens of his late improvements, and
point out their advantages, in time, for all to en
gage, and be supplied before next ginning season, I
or, engagements can be made b> letter, directed to
him at C linton, Jones county, Georgia. Gins will
j be delivered at the purchaser’s residence in anv
i part ol the State, except the C hcrokee counties
! where they will be left at the Rail Road depot’ !
i most convenient to the purchaser. All warranted’ {
to perform well if used according to the printed
directions sent with each. r

NO MORS WHITS, GREY OR RED
HAIR.
A REMEDY which enhances considerably the
beauty and alters the appearance of the coun
tenance from that which is much disliked. It is
p’easing to have efficient means to remove these
defects. To effect this change of hair so much
wished for, is the arand and never failing property
of JULES HAUEf/S VEGETABLE LIQUID
HAIR DIE, which the proprietor can with justice
state, is tar beyond any thing ot the kind ever vet
known in this or any other country. Its properties
are very powerful though very innocent. This
chemical result is a wonder, as it enables persons
to dye instantaneously their hair without the least
inconvenience. For changing red or gray hair,
whiskers, eyebrows, &c. to a brown, black, or
chesnut color. The slightest, evil 'consequences
need not fee feared ..om its use—it is altogether
harmless. This composition is the only one sanc
tioned by the science of chemistry' to dye, in an in
delible manner, the various gradations of colors,
without danger or inconvenience, and has justified
the liberal patronage and unlimited confidence of
the public. If black is required, ask for box mark
ed N., if brown, box marked B.

HOW AWfOLLY CULP A.8L87~~
TO NEGLECT USING THE GE.VUINE
DR. TAYLOR’S BALSAM OF LIVERWORT
375 B N. Y.
MI ST those be who Consump
. tion, or any affection of the Lungs, Liver or
Chest, after reading- the following letter, just re
ceived from a most res pectable inhabitant of West
chester County New York.
Tarrytown, Aug. 9, 1844.
Dear Doctor—Tt is difficult to find words to ex
press die gratitude which I feel towards you for
the interest you have taken to relieve me in my
distress. In the year 1842 I contracted a heavy
cold, which finally settled on my lungs; in a few
months aiter, T commenced coughing and raising
offensive matter, which smelt very bad. Having
heard that, Sherman's Lozenges were good for a
coughs I tried a few boxes of them, but they had
not the least effect on me. I then called in the
best physicians in the place, who attended me a
few months, but without success; I then saw an ad
vertisement in one of the city papers of Wistar’s
Balsam of W ild Cherry, of which I purchased three
bottles, at the corner of Fulton and Nassau streets,
but I could not perceive the least beneficial effect
from it, on the contrary I think it was a great in
jury to rne. Shortly after using it, 1 commenced
raisinp- blood in large quantities; ! was taken down
sck and confined to the house for three months,
daring which time I lost my appetite and fell away
very fas'; I was then induced to consult Dr. Curtis
of New "York, {one of the best physicians in the
city,) but he could do me no good. I again became,
worse, and was confined to the house all last winter
and spring, and I gave up all hope of ever gelt ng
any better, as I again raised blood and
was very severe, together with a pain in my
breast and under the shoulder blade. My friends
now gave up ail hope of my recovering, and thought
every dav was the last. About this rime I heard,
of your BALSAM OF LIVERWORT being good
for consumption, hat I was like many others/ and
was fearful that it might be a regular humbug; I
however finally consented to try it, as I thought it
could make me no worse. My brother then~pur
chsed a bottle of it at 375 Bowery, N . Y., and I
commenced taking it, and by the time I had used
oue bonle full I could sleep" all night, and in the
morning I had an appetite for my breakfast. I stilt
keep on taking it and find great benefit from it—the
pain in my breast is entirely gone, and I raise no
more blood. M ith>u the last two months I have
gained in weight six pounds and much in strength.
I would therefore, advise all who have any affec
tion of the Lungs or Liver to try the Genuine Dr,
Taylor’s Balsam of Liverwort, for I truly believe
it to he the besl remedy in existence for diseases
of the Lungs or Liver. Should any one doubt the
above statement relative to your valuable medicine,
let him call on me, and I will convince him of its
virtues. Yours; respectfully, DE REVERE.
Beware of counterfeits, the only genuine has an
engraved label (over the outside wrapper of each
bottle) with the signature of Dr. GURDON J
LEEDS attached.
