t 'CITIZENS of this beautiful and healthy State
_J allow me, a native Georgian, the pleasure to
eatl your attention to one of the greatest and most
Ujv.lul Medicines ever discovered—one of a simple
ana harmless nature—one which has proved itself
to be an infallible remedy for the FEVER AND
AGUE, etfecting' a certain anti speedy cure. The
time mentioned is truly very short, and will be
doubted by many, but 1 have certificates from the
first Physicians and of gentlemen of the highest re
spectability of Savannah, where I reside. It is
known by all that a poison will soon circulate
through and elfect the whole human system, then
why not a simple and one that is harmless/ This
Medicine is not a Northern Humbug, but a South
ern Remedy altogether. It is made in the city of
Savannah —it is recommended by citizens of Sa
vannah, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, &,c.; and
to be candid, all my Printing is Southern, executed
by Mr. E. J. Purse, of Savannah; so you will at
once see it is altogether a Southerner, and if it was
my intention to humbug any community, I would
not choose gentlemen’s names that are well I known
and in the same place where I reside. I submit
the testimony of residents of this city, among
whom are the first Physicians, and i presume you
are acquainted with many of them. The Medi
cine offered to the world, is a safe, certain and
speedy cure for Fever and Ague, which it will do
in the very short space of Twelve Hour s. As Flori
da is a newly settled countrv, it is liable to a great
deal of this troublesome disease, and it will he to
the advantage of every family to keep a supply on
hand. Citizens of Florida: it is not my intention
to weary your patience with a string of nonsense
or of advertisements, for I can assure you that I am
pretty well used up in this part of the work; but 1
wish you to try this Medicine and satisfy your
selves, and yon will for the first time believe that
a disease could he cured in Twelve Hours, and the
only way to prove it is to try it.
1 really do not know why a Southern Medicine
should not be as good as one that is manufactured
at the North. My Medicine has effected a perfect
cure where all others have failed. I admit there
are many other remedies, but not one that can be
come so popular, and so certain of curing this com
plaint, as Humphreys' Remedy for Fever ami Ague.
Only think for a moment. Twelve Hours to be a
healthy man! It is strange, very strange , that truth
should need so much boasting at last; but such is
this world. I will not tax you with any more of
this, but willingly I leave the Medicine to recom
mend itself to Florida. And now, to close, I pledge
my honor the Medicine docs not contain any Mercury
or any Mineral Preparation whatever; it is a Vege
table only.
I am respectfully, yours, A c.
W. HUMPHREYS. Jr.. Druggist,
Corner Bay and Drayton-streets, Savannah.

PLANTERS of this noble State, I ask von to
give the above Medicine one and a fair trial,
and you will find it to excel all the humbugs of the
North. It is now used, and with success, ia vou

Certificates can be had by addressing either my

Another Life saved by the Cordial, after

Dr. Woodruff Dear Sir: I take great plea
sure in testifying to the efficiency of your Dv'sen
terey Cordial from testing its virtues in my own
family. Mrs. Gardner was last summer most vio
lently attacked with that disease, and after ail emi
nent medical skill had been baffled in its efforts to
remove the disease or afford relief, and apprehen
sions began to be felt by myself, that she would not
survive much longer, under the intense agony in
which she was laboring, I had recourse to vour in
valuable Cordial, and before she had taken one
bottle of it, relief was obtained; and after trying
two, was entirely cured. I feel sure that lan in

NOTICE TO COTTON PLANTERS.
I WILL say to the cotton planters of Georgia and
South Carolina, 1 have taken the shop formerly
j occupied by S. R. Crenshaw, for the purpose of
manufacturing COTTON GINS, and would also
inform them that I have engaged Mr. Crenshaw,
who will superintend the manufacturing of them.—
his Gins shall be made of the best materials, and I
can say with propriety they are the cheapest gins
j now in the Southern States, taking the work man
: ship in consideration. I will warrant my gins to
j make cotton equal to any made on any other gins
| to the Southern States, giving the true staple of
the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and
j clear of moats. My gins will be delivered at the
j purchaser's residence free of charge and warrant
i ed to give ample satisfaction.
Ail orders addressed to the subscriber will meet
with prompt attention; repairing done in good style
I and at short notice. All old gins of 10 inch saws I
; will repair and put them on improved principles,
and also warrant them to make as good cotton as
any of the improved gins, and at a much less cost
than a new gin. J. D. HAMMACK.
; Crawfordvilie, Ga., May 4.
I will say to the planters who may favor Mr.
j Hamtnack with their patronage 1 will exert all the
ability 1 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
j business, 1 know the gins cannot be surpassed, aJ
; though agents from other shops have resorted to
: the contemptible practice of slandering me and
; saying my gins have prostrated me, though it is not
true. In full confirmation of what I say, T offer a
few certificates from gentlemen who have used rav
gins, and could furnish many more of this kind, if
required. 8. 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
oat about 3(H) lbs. of lint a day. The quality of the
i Cotton has, in Augusta, ranged half cent higher at
; each ol my sales than other sales of those days,
and it lias been pronounced by those considered
j competent to judge, as in no way inferior to the
Cava Gin. Yours, very respectfully.
F. MERIWETHER.
April 21th, 1817.
Oglethorpe Co., April 22,1817
I have used for the last three years a machine
that was made by 8. R. Crenshaw, of Crauford
ville. 1 consider it one of the best Gins I have
: ever seen. Two small mules wiii gin, with a great
deal of ease, three bales per day, and 1 do not
think there is a gin in Georgia that can excel it in
making fine cotton. In fact, Mr. Crenshaw has
sold a great many gins in this county and Elbert,
and I think that every man who has purchased is
perfectly satisfied. All of his gins which have been
, sold in this county, and they are not a few run light,
pick last, and what is better than ail, when the cot
on is carried to market it sells for the very highest
price C. 8. MERIW ETHER.

i Mr. J. 1). Hammock —l certify that 1 bought of
| R- Crenshaw, last year, a forty-five saw anti
| friction Cotton Gin, which performs well and makes
as good cotton as the Carver Gin. in mv opinion.
P. G.RHOME.
This is to certify that I purchased one of Mr. 8.
R. Crenshaw’s improved anti-friction Cotton Gins
last year, arid find it to be superior to anv Gin I
have ever used. 1 think it superior to the Carver
G ns. It makes superior cotton, giving the true
{ st aple of the article, and gins 900 lbs. of clean cot-
I ton per day, and runs very light.

GUISWOLD’S IMPROVED COTTON
GINS.
THE subscriber will continue the manufacture
ot GINS on his usual extensive scale; and
j embraces this opportunity to thank his numerous
j customers for their liberal patronage heretofore.-
j Ihe estimation in which his Gins are held may he
I known from the fact of his having sold more than
two thousand within the last three vears; probably
ten to one over any other factory in the State.—
I*his evidence of the superiority of his Gins, is ac
counted lor, 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 last, it then only remained to make them
more durable and convenient, which has been done
effectually, by several new improvements the pre
; sent year; besides, lie has the exclusive right of the
! ‘State, and the privilege of other sections, to furnish
Reed's Patent W ater 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 firiction. His fine Gins,
j w ill gin Mastodon Cotton as well as any Saw Gin
can. His agents will visit planters generally, and
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,
or, engagements can be made by letter, directed to
him at Clinton, Jones county, Georgia. Gins, will
he delivered at the purchaser’s residence in air
part ol the State, except the Cherokee counties
| where they will be left at the Rail Road depot,
most convenient to the purchaser. All warranted

PHOSPECT JB OP THE COLUMBUS
TIMES.
MAYING been for four year- the Editor of the
rimes.’ the undersigned presumes that his
i readers and the Democratic Party in Western
i Georgia, whose political organ and agent he has
| endeavored to be, are by this time sufficiently ac
-1 quainted with him to know whether he is worthy
I of t ic;r confidence and support as a Democratic
| Editor. R is proper to say, that when 1 came into
I the Editorial management of this paper, the estab
lishment was very much depressed in point of pros
perity. I saw at once that the paper was to be built
j up de novo , before a hope could be entertained of its
I prosperity. Its subscription list, not so large by one
j hail as it should be, bad run to weed, aid was en
cumbered with many bad and doubtful names.—
This required purgation and renovation. Confidence
iu the stability and permanence of the paper had to
, be established. In short the prestige of its success
; w r as all to be created by the exertions of myself and
partners. \S bile we have done much towards the
accomplishment of the object, more remains to be
j done. And it becomes necessary for me to say to my
political friends, that if they desire me to continue
: nt u»y present post, they must give such tokens of
| that desire and their approbation as will ena
-1 bie me to afford to do so. The present is doem
| ed an auspicious time to present this subject
to my political friends. The Governor’s clec
! tion is at hand. Our candidate is of Western
j Georgia, ‘-born of the Manor.” and we should
1 take the lead in giving him a support that will ex
hibit. what we who know him best, think of him.
i Popular, able, and faithful to his political principles,
—George W. Towns offers to his friends, at once,
the strongest incentives to an active and earnest
support, and a cheering guarantee of his success.
To the attainment of important ends, means must
always be consulted. The press and the stump are
the engines of political enlightenment and the
means of success in the propagation and triumph
of political principles. 1 believe I can unhesita
tingly appeal to my course as a Democratic Editor,
as a proof of my fidelity and single-hearted pur
pose to achieve the true honor and victorious suc-
I cess of Democratic principles. By what has pass
' ed, 1 am willing to he judged for the future. With
renewed energy and rekindled enthusiasm in the
cause, I come forward to ask of the Democratic Par-
J ty, such encouragement, in the unequivocal shape
of a largely increased circulation, as will at the
! same time enable me to feel that 1 am both useful
; to my party, and true to myself and those depend
ant upon ray exertions, in the editorial profession
to which 1 am attached.
With these views, the following prospectus some
what varying from our usual terms is put forth.
Persons obtaining subscribers will please forward
the names immediately.

PROSPECTUS
OF A NEW JOURNAL!
T HEHrEPU B LIC.
p=This is the title of a New Paper,
I which the subscriber proposes to publish in the j
I city of Augusta.
Th o Republic will advocate with zeal, and main
' tain with fidelity*, the great and conservative prin- i
ciples of the Whig Paktv. Home Industry |
! will receive a cordial support, and be ardently sus- j
j tained in opposition to systems calculated to foster
j foreign interests at the expense of American. !
The Distribution among the States of the
i Proceeds of the Sales of the Public
1 Lands, will he urged as soon as the stale of the
i national finances will permit, as a measure of ex
! pediency and justice. The Sub-Treasury will I
be opposed, as a scheme for keeping and disburs
ing the public funds—less safe and economical
than the agency of Banks. The Acquisition of I
! Foreign Territory will he opposed as unne
cessary for the wants of our people, dangerous to
the peace and safety of the Union, and utterly ad
verse to Southern security. Peace with Mexi
■ co will be advocated as a measure to be honestly
I and honorably consummated at the earliest prac
i tic able period.
For the sake of brevity, we will define our course
i no farther in reference to National politics and j
! adairs. The Republic will as ardently sustain
Whig bolicy and measures in Georgia as it 5
i will those for the Union at large. The views i
' of the subscriber, in reference to State interests, :
I have been so often put forth in the columns of the |
Chronicle iV* Sejitinel that it is unnecessary to re
• iterate them now. Suffice it to say, that every |
effort which the Republic can make to add to the !
prosperity of the great commonwealth of
Georgia, and the happiness of her people, will be j
made as a free-will offering of one of her native I
sons. The interests of Augusta will receive
a large share of his attention. Whatever can add 1
to her population and wealth, and the prosperity
■ of her people, will be sustained by The Republic
with unwearied devotion.
It is the fervent wish of the subscriber to see
i the South and North linked in the bonds of per- !
I petual harmony and friendship. Their differences
: will be to The Republic a source of constant
solicitude, and its efforts will be warmly directed j
to heal their broken affections,and point to a nation i
a i. pathway or glory, marked out by our Con
stitution AND THE WISE PRECEPTS OF OCR 1
POLITICAL FATHERS.
A great struggle—a period full of danger, and
w orthy of solemn thought—peers up before us in '
j the eventful future. When all hope of reconcilation I
is gone and our political constellation is darkened j
I by clouds and storms, we shall be content to triumph j
jor fall with the South. Her final destiny shall be
i oar destiny, and our faith and love shall Le hers to ■
i the last.
While the canv vss is going on,ok the claims !
of distinguished Whigs for the first office |
j W ITHIN THE GIFT OF THE PEOPLE, THE RePUB- ;
! LIC WILL SUSTAIN THOSE OF THE GREATEST
Statesman of the age, HENRY CLAY. Age
has not yet dimmed the lustre of his genius. Time ;
does not, cannot darken the moral grandeur and
beauty of his fame, for that is founded upon undy . \
ING DEVOTION TO HIS COUNTRY, and PUBLIC SLR
VICES, WHICH HAVE GIVEN HIM A HOME IN THE
HEARTS OF HIS COUNTRYMEN, AND THE N ATION A
lofty character abko ad. His genius andpracti
| cal w isdon have illumined our councils, and
I BLESSED THE Republic, while even sages have
j been fasainated by his eloquence in defence of
I the Constitution and in efforts to preserve
j the Union. Like a Star Hope, he yet shines inti e
West, and patriots still look to his radiant influence
to KE-ILLU3IINE THE CLOUDED PROSPECTS of THE
Republic.
This, however. will be no factious support. The
Republic will give its best energies to effect
the election of Him, whom the Whigs may choose
to lead them to anticipated victory. Resides its
political information, the Republic will furnish the
current new s of the day. and will be constant
ly enriched with interesting tales, essays, his
torical sketches, and other literature, se
lected with a strict reference to its purity and ex
cellence. It will zealously maintain the cause of
education. Particular care will be paid to its
| commercial department.
The readers of the Chronicle Sentinel have
1 had, in the editorial columns of that paper for the
ast twenty months, specimens of such ability fin
writing as the subscriber possesses; the leading
editorials for that period, with few exceptions,
having been written by himself. He desires to
cultivate a cordial good feeling with his brethren
of the Whig and Democratic Press. The
latter shall find in The Republic, a frank, manly,
and honorable opposition.
The Subscriber, in conclusion, asks for a gen
erous confidence and liberal patronage;
and PROMISES IN RETURN, CONSTANT AND IN
CREASED EXERTIONS TO PROMOTE THE PUBLIC
ENTERTAINMENT AND GOOD, AND THE TRIUMPH
OF THE PRINCIPLES OF THE WIIIG PVHTY.
The Republic will be published Tki-Weekly
and Weekly, and also Daily, if the patronage will
authorize it, and will be printed on new and beau
; til’ul type.

enterprize, to send on their names as early as pos
sible.

VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL FILLS.
THE startling drawback on nearly all Medicinal
Agents has ever been that in their process of pur
gation and purification, they have also Debilitated
the System. Hence Purgative Medicines have al
ways been regarded as at best but a Necessary
Evil; Patients resorting to them for the relief of
one disease at the expense of another. To obviate
this, Physicians have long sought for an Agent that
would at the same time
PURGE PURIFY AND STRENGTHEN.
But their efforts were nearly fruitless, and thev
had almost despaired of success when the labors ot
science and research, were rewarded by a discov
ery which fully realized the fondest desires of the
Medical Faculty, and which is justly regarded a
one of the most important Triumphs that Pharmacy
has ever achieved. This important desideratum is
named
Hr. Lc Roy’s Vegetable Universal Pills.
Which Purify the Blood, and remove ail corrupt
j and. vitiated humors, and unhealthy accumulations from
1 the body in a manner never before rivalled, and
w hich yet produce no weakness or lassitude what- i
ever, but on the contrary, tone the Stomach, and
invigorate the constitution during the progress of
their operation. Dr. Le Roy’s Pills, in fact, unite
those heretofore irreconcilable, but most desirable
qualities, Evacuation and Invigoration, for thev are
at the same time a STRENGTHEN ING PURGA
TIVE, AND A PURIFYING TONIC.
The two paiucipal ingredients in Dr. Le Roy's
i Pills are
WILD CHERRY & SARSAPARILLA.
So prepared that each promotes the beneficial ef
fc ct of the other, the former strengthening, while
the latter, through its union with various vegetable
ingredients, evacuates and purifies; thus they su
perinduce no torpidity or lassitude of the the Diges
tive Functions, and hence their operations are at
tended by no Re-action or Subsequent Costiveness.
Dr. Le Roy’s Pills are the most active and search
ing Medicine in existence. They at once attack
the very root of Diseases, and their action is so
prompt that in an hour or two after they arc taken,
the patient is aw r are of their good effects. They
not only operate on the Blood, but also on the chyle,
of w hich the Blood is formed, and this secures good
blood from the fountain head, moreover, they pro
duce neither nausea, griping or debility, and us a
family medicine they have no rival. Price 25 cts.
per box.

name which time cannot efface, and gained the ap
probation of all who have tested its virtues, and so
confident are the proprietors that all alike must he
benefited by their Pills, in all complaints that re
quire a purgative medicine, that they will authorize
his agents to refund the money to all who are not
benelited by their use. All we ask, is the trial of a
single box, which will convince any one of their
superior virtues. Price 2b cents per box, with

TESTIMONIALS. —Extract of a letter from Dr.
Waines, of Philadelphia, Feb. 2, 1840. “Your Pills
are the mildest in their operations, ana ye mo>t
powerful in their effects, of any that I have ever
met with in a practice of eight and twenty years.
Their action on the chyle, and hence on the impu
rities of the blood, is evidently very surprising.

Surprising Efficacy.
WY EAU DIVINE DE VENUS and NYMPH
ItJL SOAP, composed of an Eastern Botanical dis-
I covery of surprising efficacy, for rendering the
Skin soft and fair, as well as imparting a delicate
roseate hue to the complexion.
As a creator and conservator of that most distin
guishing charm of female loveliness, a transparent
fair skin, Jules Ilauel’s Nymph Soap of Eau Divine
De Venus may- be said to exert an almost magical
poyver. Couqiosed for the most part ol Oriental
Balsamic Plants, to the utter exclusion of all mine
ral admixture, it is distinguished medicinally for its
extremely bland, purifying and soothing action on
the skin; and by acting on the pores and minute se
cretory vessels, expels all impurities from the sur
face, allays every tendency to imdammatiou, and
by this method alone, effectually dissipates all red
ness, tun, prinplcs, freckles, sunburn and other (in
sightful cutaneous visitations, so inimical to female
loviiness. Its use will change the most bilious com
plexion into one of radiant whiteness; while on the
neck, nands and arms it bestow s a delicacy and
fairness which its continued use w ill happily pro
tect, and every appearance of youthful charm, to
the most advanced period of life. For sale, whole

DITjOBL BRANHAM’S LIVER AND
DYSPEPTIC MEDICINE.
TN offering this valuable medicine to the people
JL of Georgia, for the relief and cure of many dis
eases incident to a Southern climate. 1 do not claim
for it infallibility; neither do t say it wili cure all
diseases. But in Chronic Liver Affections and
Dyspepsia, I can confidently advise and recom
mend its use. from my personal observation and use
of the article in my own practice. This article is
favorably received w r herever it has been used, i
am allowed to refer to Mr. George Heard of Troup.
Mr. John Warren of Columbus, Mr. McKaffeeof
Cobb. Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. \\ illiam P,
Terrell of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dawson of La
grange; to which a great number of names migfit
be added, who bear their testimony to its value. —
Dr. Henry Branham has used this medicine in his
own case, and has prescribed it to many others,
i gives it as his opinion, that it is one of the safest
and most valuable medicines that can be used in
imperfect digestion, liver complaints, constipation
and irregular state of the bowels. It is useful in
billious complaints, to persons recovering from bil
lions fevers,and in sick or nervous head-ache. To
pregnant women, who are subject to costiveness,
this medicine is well suited. In regulating the state
of the stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion,
it is particularly useful.
I could append a long list of certificates, but for
bear, prefering to rely on the xirtues of the medi
cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle and
certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific.
