of this beautiful and healthy State
allow me, a native Georgian, the pleasure to
call your attention- so one of the greatest and most
itj«.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, effecting a certain and speedy cure. 'The
time mentioned is truly very short, and will be
cLubted by many, but 1 have certificates from the
first Physicians and of gentlemen ot the highest re
spectability of Savannah, where I reside. It is
known bv 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, bit a South
ern Remedy altogether. It is made in the city of
’ Savannah— ~it is recommended Ik citizens of Sa
rtmhah, Georgia, South Carolina. Florida, &c.; and
to be candid, all my Printing is Southern, executed
bv Mr. E. J. Purse, of Savannah; so you will at
once see it is altogether a Southerner, and if it was
m-v intention to humbug any c immunity, 1 would
not choose gentlemen s names that arc well! known
and in the same place where I reside. 1 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 Hows. As Flori
da is a newly settled country', 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' y'our 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 you will for the first time believe that
a disease could be cured in Tirelve 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. 1 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.
Onlv 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
fids, 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 is a Vege
table o/Uy.
X am respectfully, vours.&c.

Shield, Eufanla, Ala.
Another Life saved by the Cordia after
Physician’s skill had failed to benefit.
Dr. Woodruff :—Dear Sir: I take great plea
sure in testifying to the efficiency of your Dysen
terey Cordial from testing its virtues in my own
family. Mrs. Gardner was last summer most vio
lently attacked with that disease, and after all emi
nent medical skill had been battled 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, 1 had recourse to your in
valuable Cordial, and before she had taken one
bottle of it, relief was obtained; and after liking
two, was entirely cured. I feel sure that lan in
debted to it, for her life. You can use this a c ">u
may see proper. BENJ. GARDNER

Having made trial of the Razor Strop Paste for

in complete order.
When I purchased a box of this Paste I had no

NOTICE TO COTTON PLANTERS. -
I WILL sav to the cotton planters of Georgia and
South Carolina, 1 have taken the shop formerly
occupied by S. R. Crenshaw, for the purpose of
manufacturing COTTON GINS, and would also !
inform them that I liavp engaged Mr. Crenshaw, 1
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 iii the Southern States, taking the workman
ship in consideration. 1 will warrant my gins to
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 '
purchaser’s residence free of charge and warrant
ed to give ample satisfaction.
Ail 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. 1). IIAMMACK.
Crawfordviile, Ga., May 4*.
I will say to the planters who may favor Mr.
11 am mack 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 from my long experience in the
business, I know the gins cannot be surpassed, al
i though agents from other shops have resorted to
the contemptible practice of slandering me and
i saying my gins have prostrated me, though it is not
true. In full confirmation of what I say, I otter 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 50 saws—will throw
out about 800 ibs. 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 those 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 24th, 1347.
Oglethorpe Co., April 22, 1847
I have used for the last three years a machine
that was made by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawford
viile. 1 consider it one of the 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 1 tnink that every man who has purchased is
perfectly satisfied. AH of ins gins which have been
sold in this county, and they are not a few run light,
pick fast, and w hat is better’than all, when the cot
on is carried to market it sells for the very highest
price C. S. MERIWETHER.
Craw ford ville, May 4, 1847.
Mr. J. D. Hammock —l certify that 1 bought of
S. R. Crenshaw, last year, a forty-five saw anti
friction Cotton Gin. which performs w’ell and makes
as good cotton as the Carver Gin. in mv opinion.
F. G.RIIOME.
This is to certify that I 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
Gins. It makes superior cotton, giving the true
staple of the article, and gins 900 lbs. of clean cot
ton per day, and rums very light.

GRISWOLD’S IMPROVED COTTON
GINS.
THE 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
tw'o 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, ami keeping the lead, by year
ly adding new' ones. 1 lis first and second improve
ments, made the quality of cotton perfect, though
some w'ere 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 against lire 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
w here 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.

PHOSPECTUirOF THE COLUMBUS
TIMES.
HAVING been for four years the Editor of the
“Times/ 7 the undersigned presumes that his
readers and the Democratic Party in Western
Georgia, whose political organ and agent he has
endeavored to be, nrc 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 w r as very much depressed in point of pros
perity. 1 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
1 half as it should be, had run to weed, and was eu
-1 cumbered with many bad and doubtful names.—
This required purgation and renovation. Confidence
I in the stability and permanence of the paper had to
be established. In short the prestige of its success
w'as all to be created by the exertions of myself and
partners. While we have done much towards the
i accomplishment of the object, more remains to be
done. And it becomes necessary for me to say to ray
> 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
-5 ble me to afford to do so. The present is deem
ed an auspicious time to present this subject
to ray political friends. The Governor’s elec
j tion is at hand. Our candidate is of Western
Georgia, “born of the Manor.” and w'e 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
r support, and a cheering guarantee of his success.
To the attainment of important ends, means must
j 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
j tingly appeal to my course as a Democratic Editor,
as a proof of my fidelity and single-hearted pur
I 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 f iture. With
renewed energy 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 my exertions, in the editorial profession
to which 1 am attached.
With these view i, the following prospectus some
what varying from our usual terms is put forth.
Perrons obtaining subscribers will please forward
the names immediately.

PROSPECTUS
O F A NEW JOURNAL!
theHrepublic.
O'This is the title of a New Paper,
which the subscriber proposes to publish hi the
city of Augusta.
The Republic will advocate with zeal, and main
tain with iidclitv, the great and conservative prin-
I ciples of the Whig Party. Home Industry
1 will receive a cordial support, and be ardently sus
tained in opposition to,systems calculated to foster
1 foreign interests at the expense of American.
I The Distribution among the States of Tiid
I Proceeds of the Sales of the
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
-1 iifg the public funds—less safe and economical
than the agency of Banks. The Acquisition of
j Foreign Territory will be 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
and honorably consummated at the earliest prac
1 ticablc period.
For the sake of brevity, we will define our course
j 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 view’s
of the subscriber, in reference to State interests,
have been so often put forth in the columns of the
j Chronicle Sentinel that it is unnecessary to re
iterate them now. Suffice it to say, that every
. efi’oit 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 OCR
POLITICAL FATHERS.
A great struggle—a period full of danger, and
worthy of solemn thought—peers up before us in
the eventful future. When 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 our faith and love shall be hers to
the last.
While the canvass is going on,of the claims
OF DISTINGUISHED WHIGS FOR THE FIRST OFFICE

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 undy •
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 ch aracter abroad. His genius and practi
cal wisdon have illumined our councils, and
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-ILLUJVIINE 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. 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
i lected with a strict reference to its purity and ex
: cellence. It will zealously maintain the cause of
I education. Particular care will be paid to its
; COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT.
The readers of the Chronicle Jj- Sentinel have
. 1 had, in the editorial columns of that paper for the
j ast twenty months, specimens of such ability for
writing as the subscriber possesses; the leading
I editoßl a l.s 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

DR. LE ROY’S
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 of
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 lilood, 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, hut 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, hut most desirable
qualities, Evacuation and Tnrisroration, for they are
at the same time a STRENGTHENING PURGA
TIVE, AND A PURIFYING TONIC.
'1 he two paiacipal 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, w hile
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.

Gordon’s Family Bills. It has now for itself a
name which time cannot efface, and gained the ap
probation of all who have tested its virtues, jfnd so
confident are the proprietors that all alike must be
benefited by their Bills, in all complaints that re
j quire a purgative medicine, that they will authorize
his agents to refund the money to all who are not
benefit*! by their use. All we ask, is the trial of a
single box, which will convince any one of their
superior virtues. Brice 25 cents per box, with

Surprising Efficacy.
MY EAU DIVINE DE VENUS and NYMPH
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
guishing charm of female loveliness, a transparent
fair skin, Jules Haueßs Nymph Soap of Eau Divii e
De Venus may be said to exert an almost magical
f w>wer. Composed for the most part «f Oriental
ialsamic 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 imfiammation, and
by this method alone, effectually dissipates all red
ness, tan, prinples, freckles, sunburn and other un
sightfol cutaneous visitations, so inimical to female
lovliness. Its use will change the most bilious com
plexion into one of radiant whiteness; while on the
neck, hands and arms it bestows a delicacy and
fairness which its continued use will happily pro
tect, and every - appearance of youthful charm, to
the most advanced period of life. For sale, whole

Dh7 JOEL BRANHAM’S 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
for it infallibility; neither do 1 say it will cure all’
diseases. But in Chronic Liver Affections and
Dyspepsia, I can confidently advise and recoin
. mend its use, from my personal observation and use
; of the article in my own practice. This article is
favorably received wherever it has been used. I
1 am allowed to refer to Mr. George Heard of Troup,
Mr, John Warren of Columbus, Mr. McKaffee of
Cobb, Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. William D.
I Terrell of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dawson of La
grange; 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
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 usetnl in
. billions complaints, to persons recovering from bil
i lions fevers.and in sick or nervous bead-ache. To
pregnant women, who are subject to costiveness.,
tliis 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 virtues of the medi
cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle and
certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific.
