[ From the Bay Stale Democrat, Bouton, Aon. 4,101 l ] REMEDIES. • There are so many medicines of doubtful char acter advertised and puffed by the newspapers at the present time, that we should shrink from the task we have now undertaken, were we not most throughly convinced,from our own personal knowl edge of the facts, what we state below. It is of Wistar’s Ralsam of Wild Cherry 7 ' that we would speak, and we speak advisedly. A lady of our acquaintance, whom we see every day, was a short time since, in what wc though a precarious, if not dangerous state of health. A cough had set- i tied on her lungs, her form seemed wasting away ; | she was obliged to abandon her work, and we thought, not soon to resume it again. For about two months she has been taking Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry and already has she so far re gained her health as to be able to resume her la bor. This is but a single case, but it is one, at least, in which we cannot doubt the efficacy of the medi cine. None genuine unless signed I. BUTTS on the wrapper.

COTTON. —We have had another dull week in our Cotton market, and the few sales made have j been at a slight decline from the prices paid last ' ■week, say about J to $ cent. Holders, however, are slill firm in their asking rates, and there is very little Cotton on the market for sale. What is put on the market sells as follows : Ordinary 10$ a Good Ordinary 10$, Middling 11, Good Mid dling 11 Middling Fair 1 1£. and Fair 11| cts. for square bales. The sales during the past week have been so limited that they are not worth reporting. Os the growing crop, the accounts received from the of this Iftato and Carolina are anything but flattering, In some sections a fair average crop it is thought will be made, while in other sec- [ tions we hear much complaint. The weather up 15 the present time has been ver} r unfavorable to the maturing of Cotton, and from present ap pearances there is but little prospect of a change for the better. One thing is certain, the crop is backward some three weeks, and unless we are favored with a late frost, will be short of that ol last year in this State And Carolina. Up to the pre sent time none of the new crop has come to band. RECEIPTS OF COTTON. From the Ist Sept., 1846, to latest dates received. 1846-7. 1845-6.

Aug. 19 th 4 49 GRISWOLD’S IMPROVED COTTON GINS. r*3HE subscriber will continue the manufacture JL of 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 j 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 year 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 j more durable and convenient, which has been done effectually, by several new improvements the pre sent year; besides, he has the exclusive right ot the State, and the privilege of other sections, to furnish Reed’s Patent \Vater Boxes, which are believed to j be ten times more durable than any other, by those I who have made a fair trial of them, and are infalli bly secure against fire by function. His fine Gins, i will gin 3lastodon Cotton as well as any Saw Gin can. Ilis agents will visit planters generally, and exhibit specimens of his late improvements, and point out their advantages, in time, for all to en- j gage, and be supplied before next ginning season, I or, engagements can he made by letter, directed to ‘ him at Clinton, Jones county, Georgia. Gins, will be delivered at the purchaser’s residence in an' part of the State, except the Cherokee counties where they will be left at the Rail Road depot, most convenient to the purchaser. All warranted to perform well if used according to the printed i directions sent with each. SAMUEL GRISWOLD. March 25 th—c 147 M. P. STOVALL. WAREHOUSE AND COMMISSION MERCHANT, AUGUSTA, GA.
