MOUNT EAGLE TRIPOLI.
A REMARKABLE mineral, pronounced by
geologists to be a great rarity in nature and
known to them by the name of Tripoli, has lately
been discovered in this country, although but in one
bed, of very narrow limits, all owned by the “Mount
Eagle Manufacturing Company,'’ incorporated for
the sole purpose of its manufacture.
The article is excellent for burnishing and clean
ing all finished metallic and glass surfaces, such as
gold, silver, brass, Britannia and steel ware, win
dow glass, &c. Nothing has ever yet been discov
ered equal to the pure Tripoli, and the common
language of the consumer is, it is the best tbingl
ever saw. The genuine article is for sale by the
exclusive agent for Augusta. WM. HAINES.

FACTS WORTH KNOWING
IT is now universally admitted that the mysterious
power of Galvanism has an important and won
derful effect on the animal economy; in fact, the
whole Nervous or Vital System has been likened
to a Galvanic Battery, of which the Brain is (he
] great Centre, the Spinal Column, the connecting
I chain, and the countless Nerves which ramify
from this important structure, the conducting wires
whereby the generated influence is brought to
every portion of the animal frame. This is not a
fanciful theory, but a positive and unquestionable
fact, which can be most conclusively demonstrated.
It is therefore no matter of astonishment that the
new and beautiful application of this wondrous
agent, as developed by DR. CHRISTIE’S GAL
j VANIC RINGS, BELTS, BRACELETS, See.,
should be of such vast benefit in many of the most
afflicting diseases to which we are subject. In the
long tram of Nervous Complaints, its effects are al
most magical, and the most severe cases of Para
lysis, Epileptic Fits, Dyspepsia, Bronchitis, Tic Do
loreux, Neuralgia, and many other derangements
of the nervous system, readily yield to the efficacy
of Christie’s Galvanic articles and remain per
manently cured. Severe cases, in which benefit
was unexpected, arc often as completely relieved
i as others.
! Testimonials of the most respectable character,
and pamphlets with full descriptions, may be had
gratis of the authorized agent, or will be sent by
mail.
o*Cautiok. —The great celebrity and success
of Dr. Christie’s Galvanic am! Magnetic Curatives,
has caused them to be counterfeited by unprinci
pled persons. To protect the public against de
ception there is but ONE AUTHORIZED
AGENT appointed in each town or city, from
! whom alone the Genuine articles can be procur
ed. Only Agent in Augusta
