A"'I t TIZENS of this beautiful and healthy State
allow me, a native Georgian, the pleasure to
call your attention to one of the greatest and most
Um.l<(l Medicines ever discovered—one of a simple
and harmless nature—one which has proved itself
to be an infallible remedy for the FEVER AND
AGUE, effectinga certain and speedy cure. The
time mentioned is truly very short, and will be
doubted by many, but I have certificates from the
first Phrjsiciatis 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 effect the whole human system, then
why not a simple and one that is harmless ( I his
Medicine is not a Northern Humbug. but a South
ern Remedy altogether. It is made in the city of
Savannah —lt is recommended by citizens of Sa
vaJinah, Georgia, South Carolina. Florida, <fec.; 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
mv intention to humbug any community,. I would
not choose gentlemen’s names that are welll 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 Hou-s. As Flori
da is a newly settled country, it is liable to a great
deal of this troublesome disease,, and it will be to
t>he 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 I
wish you to try this Medicine and satisfy your
selves, and you will for the first time believe that
a disease could be cured in Twelve Hours, and the
only way to prove it is to try it.
I 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 and 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 does not contain any Mercury
or any Mineral Preparation whatever; it it a Vege
table only.
I am respectfully, yours, &.c.

NOTICE TO COTTON PLANTERS.
I WILL say to the cotton planters of Georgia and
South Carolina, I have taken the shopformerly
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,-
Gins shall be made of the best materials, and I
can say with propriety they are the cheapest gins
now in the Southern States, taking the workman
ship in consideration. I will warrant my gins to
make cotton equal to any made on any other gins :
to the Southern States, giving the true staple of I
the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and
clear of moats. Mj* gins will be delivered at the
purchaser’s residence free of charge and warrant
ed to give ample satisfaction.
All orders addressed to the subscriber will meet
with prompt attention; repairing done in good style
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. !
Crawfordville, Ga., May 4.
I will say to the planters who may 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,
and warranted to be the cheapest gins ever offered
to the public; and 5 from my long experience in the
business, I know the gins cannot be surpassed, al
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 Avhat I say, I offer a
few certificates from gentlemen who have used mv
gins, and could furnish many more of this kind, if
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 sf> saws—will throw
out about 800 lbs. of lint a day. The quality of the
Cotton has, in Augusta, ranged half cent higher at
each of my sales than other sales of thusfr days,
and it has been pronounced by those considered
competent to judge, as in no way inferior to the
Cava Gin. Yours, very respectfully,
F. MERIWETHER.
April 24tli, 1847.
Oglethorpe Co., April 22,1847
I have used for the last three years a machine
that was made by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawford
ville. I consider it one of ibe best Gins I have
ever seen. Two small mules will gin, with a great
deal of ease, three bales per day, and I 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 fast, and what is better than all, when the cot
on is carried to market it sells for the very highest
price C. S. MERIWETHER.
Crawfordville, May 4, 1847.
Mr. J. D. Hammack —l certify that I bought of
S. R. Crenshaw, last rear, a forty-fire saw anti
friction Cotton Gin. wlilch 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. S.
R. Crenshaw’s improved anti-friction Cotton Gins i
last year, and find it to be superior to any Gin I
have ever used. I think it superior to the Carver
Gins. It makes superior cotton, giving the true
staple of the article, and gins 900 lbs. of clean cot
ton per day, and runs very light.

ORISWCLD’S IMPROVED COTTON
GINS.
THF. subscriber will continue the manufacture
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
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
more durable and convenient, which has been done
effectually, by several new improvements the pre
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 agaiast fire by firiction. His fine Gins,
will 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
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
directions sent with each,

PROSPECTUS OP THE COLUMBUS
TIMES.
HAVING been for four years the Editor of the
“Times,” the undersigned presumes that his
readers and the Democratic Party in Western
Georgia, whose political organ and agent he has
endeavored to be, arc by this time sufficiently ac
quainted with him. to know whether he is worthy
of their confidence and support as a Democratic
Editor. It is proper to say, that when I came into
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
up de novo, before a hope could be entertained of its
prosperity. Its subscription list, not so large by one
half as it should be, had run to weed, and was en
cumbered with many bad and doubtful names.—
This required purgation and renovation. Confidence
in the stability ami permanence of the paper had to
be established. In short the prestige of its success
was all to be created by the exertions of myself and
partners. While we have done much towards the
accomplishment of the object, more remains to be
done. And it becomes necessary for me to say to my
political friends, that if they desire me to continue
at my present post, they must give such tokens of
that desire and their approbation as will ena
ble me to afford to do so. The present is deem
ed an auspicious time to present this subject
to my political friends. The Governor’s elec
tion is at hand. Our candidate is of Western
Georgia, “born of the Manor.” and we should
take the lead in giving him a support that will ex
hibit, what we who know him best, think of him.
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, I 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 sue
cess of Democratic principles. By what has pass
ed, I am willing to be judged for the future. With
renewed enerjgy and rekindled enthusiasm in the
cause, I come forward to ask of the Democratic Par
ty, such encouragement, in the unequivocal shape
of a largely increased circulation, as will at the
same time enable me to feel that I 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 immediate! v.

PROSPECTUS ! ,5 f
OF A NEW JOURNAL!
THE REPURLIC.
[LFThis is the title of a New Paper,
which the subscriber proposes to publish in the
city of Augusta.
The Republic will advocate with zeal, and main
tain with fidelity, the great and conservative prin
ciples of the Whig Party. Home Industry
will receive a cordial support, and he ardently sus
tained in opposition to systems calculated to foster
foreign interests at the expense of American.
The Distribution among the States of the
Proceeds of the Sales of the Public
Lands, will be urged as soon as the state of the
national finances will permit, as a measure of ex
pediency and justice. The Sub-Treasury will
be opposed, as a scheme for keeping and disburs
ing the public funds—less safe and economical
than the agency of Ranks. The Acquisition of
Foreign Territory will be opposed as unne
cessary for the wants of our people, dangerous to
the peace and safety ot the Union, and utterly ad
verse to Southern security. Peace with Mexi
co will be advocated as a measure to be honestly
and honorably consummated at the earliest prac
ticable period.
For the sake of brevity, we will define our course
no farther in reference to National politics and
affairs. The Republic will as ardently sustain
Whig policy and measures in Georgia as it
will those for the Union at large. The views
of the subscriber, in reference to State interests,
have been so often put forth in the columns of the
Chronicle Sentinel that it is unnecessary to re
iterate them now. Sulfice 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
made as a free-will offering of one of her native
sons. The interests of Augusta will receive
a large share of his attention. Whatever can add
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
the South and North linked in the bonds of per
petual harmony and friendship. Their differences
will be to The Republic a source of constant
solicitude, and its efforts will be warmly directed
to heal their broken affections,and point to a nation
al pathway of glory, marked out by our Con
stitution and the wise precepts of our
political fathers*
A greatstruggle —a period fullof danger, and
worthy of solemn thought—peers up before us in
the eventful future. W hen all hope ofreconcilation
is gone and our political constellation is darkened
by clouds and storms, we shall be content to triumph
or fall with the South. Her final destiny shall be
our destiny, and bur faith ancflove shall be hers to
the last.
While the canvass'is going on,of the claims
of distinguished Whigs for the first office
within the gift o-e 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 fume, for that is founded upon undv.
ING DEVOTION TO HIS COUNTRY, and PUBLIC SER
VICES, WHICH HAVE GIVEN HIM A HOME IN THE
HEARTS OF HIS COUNTRYMEN, AND THE NATION A
Lofty character abroad. His genius and practi
cal wisdon have illumined our councils, and
I blessed the Republic, while even sages have
been fasainated by his eloquence in defence of
the Constitution and in efforts to preserve
the Union. Like a Star Hope,he yet shines in the
West, and patriots still look to his radiant influence
to re-illuminethe clouded prospects of the
Republic.
This, however, will be no factions 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. Besides its
political information, the Republic will furnish the
current news 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 3? Sentinel hare
had, in the editorial columns of that paper for the
ast twenty months, specimens of such ability for
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 principi.es of the Whig party.
The Republic will be published Tri-Weekly
and Weekly, and also Daily, if the patronage will
authorize it, and will be printed on new and beau
tiful type.
As the first number will be issued at or near
the commencement of the next year, the Sub
scriber respectfully asks of those who favor the
enterprize, to send on their names as early as pos
sible.
The Tri-Weekly Republic will be issued on
a medium sheet, the details of news to be copious,
without unnecessary prolixity. The Weekly pa
per will be a large sheet, (26 by 38 inches.)
Terms. —Tri-Weekly, $4; Weekly, $2.

the first number. JAMES M. SMVTHE.

VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL PILLS.
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 they
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 as
one of the most important Triumphs that Pharmacy
has ever achieved. This important desideratum is
named
Dr. Le Roy’s Vegetable Universal Pills.
Which Purify the Blood, and remove all corrupt
and vitiated humors, and unhealthy accumulations from
the body in a manner never before rivalled, and
which yet produce no weakness or lassitude what
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 Invisroration , for they are
at the same time a STRENGTHENING PURGA
TIVE, AND A PURIFYING TONIC.
The two paincipal Ingredients in Dr, Le Roy’s
Pills are
WILD CHERRY & SARSAPARILLA.
So prepared that each promotes the beneficial ef
fect 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 are taken,
the patient is aware of their good effects. They
not only operate on the Blood, but also on the chyle,
of which the Blood is formed, and this secures good
blood from the fountain head, moreover, they pro
duce neither nausea, griping or debility, and as a
family medicine they have no rival. Price 25 cts,
per box.

Surprising Efficacy.
"I|Y EAU DIVINE DE VENUS and NYMPH
ifJL SOAP, composed of an Eastern Botanical dis
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--
polishing charm of female loveliness, a transparent
fair skin, Jules Hauel's Nymph Soap of Eau Divine
De Venus may be said to exert an almost magical
Eower. Composed for the most part of Oriental
lalsamic Plants, to the utter exclusion ot ail mine
ral admixture, it is distinguished medicinally for its
! extremely bland, purifying and soothing action ea
j the skin; and by acting on the pores and minute se-*
cretory vessels, expels all impurities from the sur
face, allays every tendency to imflamniation, and
■ by this method alone, effectually dissipates all red
ness, tan, prinples, freckles, sunburn and other un
sightful cutaneous visitations, so inimical to female
lovliness. Its use will change the most bilious com-,
plexion into one of radiant whiteness; wSiile on the.
neck, hands and arms it bestows a delicacy and
fairness which its continued use will happily pro
i tect, and every appearance of youthful charm, to
the most advanced period of life. For sale, whole

DR. JOEL BRANHAM B LIVER AND
DYSPEPTIC MEDICINE.
IN offering this valuable medicine to the people
of Georgia, for the relief and cure of many dis
[ eases incident to a Southern climate, Ido not claim
forit infallibility; neither do 1 say it will cure all
: diseases. But in Chronic Liver Affections and
I Dyspepsia, I can confidently advise and recom
mend its use, from my personal observation and use
i of the article in my own practice. This article is
favorably received wherever it has been used. I
i am allowed to refer to Mr. George Heard of Troup,
■ Mr. John Warren of Columbus, Mr. McKaffee of
I Cobb, Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. William D.
j Terrell of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dawson of La
/ grange; to which a great number of names might
f be added, who bear their testimony to its value.—
! Dr. Henry Branham has used this medicine in his
t own case, and has prescribed it to many others,
gives it as his opinion, that it is one of the safest
and most valuable medicines that can be used in
r imperfect digestion, liver complaints, constipation
I and irregular state of the bowels. It is useful in
■ billions complaints, to persons recovering from hil
* lious fevers,and in sick or nervous head-ache. To■
? pregnant women, who are subject to costiveness,,
T this medicine is well suited. In regulating the state
5 of the stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion,.
it is particularly useful.
* I could append a long list of certificates, but for
t bear, prefering to rely on the virtues of the medi
i cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle an<t
1 certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific.
