Patent illc&icinear. i
"iTXIZENS of this beautiful and healthy State
allow me, a native Georgian, the pleasure to
tall your attention to one of the greatest and most
Ujvlul 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
mentioned is truly very short, and will be ,
doubted by many, but I have certificates from the
first Physicians and oj gentlemen ot the highest re- i
spectability of Savannah, where I reside. It is
known by all that a poison will soon circulate i
through and effect the whole human system, then
why not a simple and one that is harmless? 1 iiis ,
Medicine is not a Northern Humbug, hat a Sputa
ern Remedy altogether. It is maae in the
Savannah —it is recommended by citizens ot &r
vannah, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, Ac.; and
to b£ 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
mv intention to humbug any c 'immunity, 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 shis 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, cerlain and
speedy cure for Fever and Ague, which it will do
in the very short space of Ttaelve Hou-s. As Flori
da is a newly settled country, it is liable to a great
Jeal of this troublesome disease, and it will be 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 I
wish you to try this Medicine and satisfy yomr
•elres, and you will for the first time believe that
a disease could be cured in Twelve Hours, and the
only wav 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. IViy Medicine has effected a perfect
cure where ajl 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.
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 .
X-gm respectfully, yours, &c.

remove the disease or atford relief, and apprehen
sions began to be fek by myself, that she would not
survive much longer, under the intense agony in
which she was laboring, I had recourse to your in
valuable Cordial, and before she had takan one
bottle of it, relief was obtained; and after Uking
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, I hare taken the shop formerly |
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. — i
Gins shall be made of the best materials, and I 1
can say with propriety they are the cheapest gins
now in the Southern States, taking the workman- j
ship in consideration. I will warrant my gins to i
! make cotton equal to any made on any other gins
1 to the Southern States, giving the true staple of
j the cotton and making it perfectly free of knap and
clear of moats. My gins will be delivered at the j
purchaser’s residence free of charge and warrant- !
ed to give ample satisfaction.
All orders addressed to the subscriber will meet 1
with prompt attention; repairing.done in good style !
and at short notice. AH old gins of 10 inch saws I 1
will repair and put them on improved principles,
♦ind also warrant them to make as good cotton as i
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.
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 tiie cheapest gins ever offered
to the public; and from my long experience in the
business, I know the gins cannot be surpassed, al
though agpnts from other shops have resorted to
the contemptible practice of slandering me aiid
saying ray gms have prostrated me, though it is not
true. In full confirmation of what I say, I offer a
few certificates from gentlemen who have used my
gins, and could furnish many more of this kind, if
required. S. R. CRENSHAW.
Dear £*ir: I have used the Gin bought of you for
two years, and'l 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 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 those days,
and it has been pronounced by those considered
competent to judge, as in no way inferior to the
Cava Gin. t’ours, very respectfully.
F* MERIWETHER*
April 24th, 1847.
Oglethorpe Go., April 22,1847
I have used for the last three years a machine
that was made by S. R. Crenshaw, of Crawford
viile. I 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 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 all, when the col
on is carried to market it sells for the very highest
price G. S. MERIWETHER.
Craw ford ville, Mat* 4,1847.
Mr. J. D. Hammock —l certify that X bought of
S. 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 my opinion.
P. G. RHOME.
This is to certify that I purchased one of Mr. S.
R. Crenshaw’s improved antifriction 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 ibs. Os clean cot
-1 ton per day, and runs 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.r*-
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 tlio St at a
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
t Reed’s Patent Water Boxes, which are believed to
i 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 fmetion. His fine Gins.
; will gin Mastodon Cotton as well as any Saw Gin
- can. His agents will visit planters generally, and
i 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
f to perform well if used according to the printed
directions sent with each.

1 PROSPECTUgrOF THE COLUMBUS
[ TIMES.
j | TAVING been for four years the Editor of the
XI “Times,” th e undersigned presumes that his
readers and the Democratic Party in Western
Georgia, whose political organ and agent he has
endeavored to be, are by this time sufficiently ac
quainted with him to know whether he is worthy
of their confidence and support as a Democratic
2 Editor. It is proper to say, that when i came into
the Editorial management of this paper,the estab
r lishment was very much depressed in point of pros
* perity. I saw at once that the paper was to be built
r 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 had and doubtful names.—
: This required purgation and renovation. Confidence
* in the stability and 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
5 partners. While we have done much towards the
5 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
-5 ble me to afford to do so. The present is docnv
ed an auspicious time to present this subject
to my political friends. The Governor’s elec
j tion is at hand. Our candidate is of Western
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.
Popular, able, and faithful to his political principles,
j —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
5 means of success in the propagation and triumph
’ of political principles. I believe I can unhesita-
I tingly appeal to my course as a Democratic Editor,
as a proof of my fidelity and single-hearted our
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 future. With
renewed energy and rekindled enthusiasm in the
cause, I come forward to ask of the Democratic Par
ty v such encourage merit, in the unequivocal shape
’ of a largely increased circulation, as will at the
same time enable me to feel that 4.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 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!
THE REPUBLIC.
O This is the title of a New Paper,
which the subscriber proposes to publish iu the
city of Augusta.
The Republic will advocate with zeal, and main
-1 tain with fidelity, the great and conservative prin
-1 ciples of the Whig Party. Home Industry
will receive a cordial support, and be ardently sus
, luined in opposition to systems calculated to foster
1 foreign interests at the expense cf American.
I The Distribution among the States of the
Proceeds of the Sales of the Public
i 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
i ing the public funds —less safe and economical
than the agency of Banks, 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 honeslly
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 Jp Sentinel 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
made as a free-will offering of one of her native
sons. The interests of Augusta will receive
I 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 great struggle—a period full of danger, and
worthy of solemn thought—peers up before us in
the eventful future. When ail 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
or distinguished Whigs for the first office
WITHIN THE GIFT OF THE PEOPLE, TIIE 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 hit fame, 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 CHARACTER abroad. IBs genius and practi
cal wisdon have illumined our councils, and
blessed the Republic, while even sages have
j been fasaiuated by his eloquence in defence of
the Constitution and in efforts to preserve
the Union. Like a St ar lIoPE.he yet shines in the
West, and patriots still look to his radiant intiuence
to RE-ILLUMIHE THE CLODDED 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 kill furnish the
current news of the d\y, and will be constant
! ly enriched with interesting tales, essays, his
l torical sketches, and other literature, se
; lected with a strict reference to its purity and ex
. cellence. It will zealously maintain the cans*; of
: i education. Particular care will be paid to its
i commercial department.
The readers of the Chronicle Jj* Sentinel have
- had. in the editorial columns of that paper for the
ast twenty months, specimens of such ability tor
> writing as the subscriber possesses; the leading
. j editori.a ls for that period, with few exceptions,
. | having been written by himself. He desires to
i cultivate a cordial good feeling with his brethren
. of the Whig and Democratic Press. The
i latter shall find in The Republic, a frank, manly,
: and honorable opposition.
The Subscriber, in conclusion, asks for a gf.n
--s f.rous confidence and liberal patronise;
i and promises in return, constant and in
) CREASED EXERTIONS TO PROMOTE THE PUBLIC
; I ENTERTAINMENT AND GOOD, AND THE TRIUMPH
. OF THE PRINCIPLES OF THE WHIG PARTY.
The Republic will be published Tri-Weekly
i and Weekly, and also Daily, if the patronage will
1 authorize it, and will be printed on new and beau-
J tiful type.
As the first number will be issued at or near
, I the commencement of the next year, the Sub
-3 scriber respectfully asks of those who favor the
| I 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.
1 without unnecessary prolixity. The Weekly pa
-1 per will be a large sheet, (26 by 38 inches.)

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
bad 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 Hoy’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 tue constitution during the progress of
their operation. Dr. Le Roy’s Pills, in fact, unite
those heretofore irreconcilable, hut most desirable
qualities, Evacuation and hiris’oration. for they are
at the same time a STRENGTHENL\G 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 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 sc
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.

: DR. JOlili BRANHAM’S LIVERRAND
DYSPEPTIC MEDICINE.
IN offering this valuable medicine to the people
of Georgia, for the relief and cure of many dis
-1 eases incident to a Southern climate, Ido not claim
. for it infallibility; neither do 1 say* it will cure ail
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. Tliis article is
favorably received wherever it has been used. I
1 am allowed to refiertc* Mr. George Heard of Troup.
Mr. John Warren of Columbus, Mr. McKalTee of
i Cobb, Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. William D.
- Terrell of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dawson of La-
U grange; to which a great number of names might
f be added, who bear their testimony to its value.—
e Dr. Henry r Branham lias used this medicine in his
t own case, and has prescribed it to many others.
giy.es it as iris opinion, that it is one of the safest
and most valuable medicines that can be used in
f imperfect digestion, liver complaints, constipation
t and irregular state of the bowels. It is useful in
- billious complaints, to persons recovering from bil-
J lions fevers,and in sick or nervous head-ache. To
s pregnant women, who are subject to costiveness,
V ' this medicine is well suited. In regulating the state
3 ! of the stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion,
1 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 and
1 certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific.
