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.

Oct 20 ts 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 Dec. 1 HAVILAND, RISLEY & CO. NEW CLOTHING STORE.
