I'I'TIZENS of this beautiful and health}- State
* j allow me, a native Georgian, the pleasure to
• alt your attention to one of the greatest and most
Medicines ever discovered—one of a simple
ana uarmless nature—one which has proved itself
to be an infallible remedy for the FEVER AND
AGUE, effecting a certain and speedy cure. The
lime mentioned is truly very short, and will be ;
doubted by many, but I have certificates from the |
first Physicians and of gentlemen of t he 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 7 This ;
Medicine is not a Northern Humbug, but a Sou/ 1-
trn Remedy altogether. It is made in, the city ol
Savannah —it is recommended by citizens ol Sa
vannah, Georgia, South Carolina. Florida, Ac.; and
to he candid, all my Printing is Southern, executed
by .fir. E. J. Purse, of Savannah; sc you will at
once see it is altogether a Southerner , and if it was I
my 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 ct residents of tills city, among |
whom are the first Physicians,and 1 presume you
are acquainted with many ot them. The Medi
cine ottered to the world, is a safe, certain and
speedy cure for Fever and Ague, which it will do
in the very short space ol Twelve Flours. As Flori
da is a newly settled country, it is liable to a great
deal of this troublesome disease, and it will be to
the advantage of every family to keep a supply cn !
hand. Citizens of Florida : it is not my intention
to weary your patiencp 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 j
a disease could be cured in Twelve Hoars, and the
only way to prove it is to try it.
I really do n.ot know why a Scitthem 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 i
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 nt it Ague.
Only think for a moment. Twelve Honrs 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 ol |
this, but willingly I leave the Medicine to reconi- 1
mend itself to Florida. And now, to close, I pledge
mj honor the Medicine does not contain any Mercury
or any Mineral Preparation whatever; it is a Vege- j
table only.
I am respectfully, yours, dec.

PROSPECTUS.
FOR THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE
AND APPENDIX.
t\rf issue this Prospectus to apprise the public :
f ▼ of renewed preparations on onr part to pub
lish the CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE APPEN
DIX for the approaching session, and to invite
subscriptions. r l he two Houses having contracted
with us lor the work, on such terms as enable us
now to make complete reports, to multiply and .
issue the numbers in quicker succession than here
tofore, and without increasing the price to sub
scribers, we hope to make a good return for the
liberality and high official sanction thus bestowed
on the publication. We shall increase the volume
at least one-third beyond the ordinary bulk; and
endeavor to add toils usefulness by extending still
further its large circulation.
This last is not the least important point in the
view of Congress. Faithful and durable reports o'
the debates of the body arc of value in proportion
to the extent of their circulation among the people.
It is in this way that Congress it brought into the
presence of its remote constituents—that it obtains
easy access and holds communication with them
from day today, and readers the government real
ity representative.
Having received from all parties in Congress the
strongest Quarks of approbation and confidence in j
the liberal means and permanent contract voted to
continue tiro work vre shall not he found wanting
in the impartiality and industry necessary to the
due fulfilment of the engagement on onr part. The
next session will task to the utmost the. best efforts
ol’ those connected with the undertaking. It will
be disthiguishedby discussions of extraordinary in
terest and results of abiding concern. The war.
its origin and conduct by officers in the cabinet and
in the field, will lurnish subjects of profound inquire
and consideration. The terms of peace, the dis
[ position to be’made of conquests, the consequences ,
to be drawn from all that has been done, as affect
; ing parties in this country, and especially as bear
ing on the approaching Presidential election, will
open up novel and powerfully operating disens
| sions, rendering trie councils at Washington during |
| the next year as pregnant of good or evil to this 1
! continent as those of Rome were to the Oh’ World 1
in the days of her early energy. Such a It Id for j
; deliberation and action was never presented to any I
i Congress. All that has transpired, or may here
j after transpire before the close of the approaching
: session of Congress, in New Mexico, California, in
| the capital of Mexico, and the provinces still de- I
I pendent on it, will come under the .consideration of I
| the next Congress. Its debates will contain the I
i history of the war. and its action determine its re
| suits, whether they be decided by arms or diplo- j
| macy. And whatever is developed concerning j
| this vast and interesting matter on the floor ofCon
; gross or in the Executive messages, will be found
i recorded in the Congressional Globe and Ap
, PE.VI !X .
The Congressional Globe is made up of thedailv
| proceedings of the two Houses of Congress, and |
printed on superfine double royfd paper, v ith small
type, (brevier and nonpareil.) in quarto form, each
number containing sixteen roval quarto pages. ;
The speeches ot the members in this first form, !
are condensed —ihe full report of the prepared
speeches being reserved for the Appendix. All
resolutions, mot ons, and other proceedings, are j
given in the form of the Journals, with the yeas
and nays on every important question.
Every member will have an opportunity to road
his remarks before they are put to prers, and alter |
our report, if he shall think it incorrect.
The. Appendix is made up of the President’s an
j nual message, the reports of the principal officers I
of the government that accompany' it, and all
speeches of the members of. Congress, written out
or revised by themselves. It L printed in the I
same form as the Congressional Globe, and usually |
makes about the same number of pages during a
session.
During the first month or six weeks of a session, ;
there is rarely more business done than will make
two numbers a week—one of the Congressional
Globe and one of the Appendix: but during the re- i
mainder of a session, there is usually sufficient mat- j
ter lor two or three numbers of each every week, i
Ihe next session will be unusually interesting,
therefore, we, calculate that the Congressional !
Globe and Appendix together will make near 3,000
large quarto pages, printed in small type—brevier
and nonpareil. V e furnish complete Indexes to .
both at the end of a session,
V\ c v. ill endeavor to print r. sufficient number of
surplus copies to supply all that may re miscar- •
ried, or lost in the mails ; but subscribers should lie i
very particular to file their papers carefully, for !
fear that we should not be able to supply all the 1
lost numbers.
YV <• have a few surplus copies of tlic Congrc«sion
! al Globe for the last session of Congress, which we |
| will sell for the original subscription pidce—s’l a

We have no surplus copies of the Appendix for

PROSPECTUS CF THE COLUMBUS
TIMES.
HAVING heer 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 a°rent he has j
endeavored to be, are by ff.is time sufficiently ac- j
quainted with him to know whether Le 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 ol’ pros
perity. I saw at once that the paper was to he built
up de novo, belore a hope could'be entertained of its
prosperity. Its subscription list , not so large by one
im;t 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 and permanence of the paper had to
be established. In «hort the prestige of its success
was all to be created by the exertions of myself and i
partners. YV hile we have done much towards the
accomplishment of the object, more remains to be j
done. And it becomes necessary forme to say to mv
political friends, that if they desire me to continue j
at my present post, they must give such tokens of i
that desire and their approbation as will ena- i
hie me to afford to do so. The present is deem- ■
ed an auspicious time to present this subject
to mv political iriends. 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. j
Popular, able, and faithful to his political principles.
—George W. Towns oilers to his friends, at once,
the strongest incentives to an active and earnest
support, and a cheering guarantee of Isis 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 unhosita- 1
tingly appeal to ray 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 Os Democratic principles. By what has pass
ed, I am willing to be judged lor tiie future. 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 mo 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 j
to which 1 am attached.
With these views, the following prospectus some
what varying from onr usual terms is put forth.
Persons obtaining subscribers will please forward
the names immediately.

PROSPECTUS
OF A NEW JOURNAL!
THE REPUBLIC.
llXThis 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
j tain with fidelity, the great and conservative prin- I
. ciples of the Whig Party. Ho.mk Industry I
will receive a cordial support, and bo ardently sus- [
tained in opposition to systems calculated to foster
foreign interests at the expense of American. !
! Thf. Distribution among the States ok the j
Proceeds oe the Svt.es of the Pcbmc
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 Banks. The Acquisition of
Foreign Territory will be opposed as unne
cessary lor the wants of our people, dangerous to
the peace and safety of the Union, and utterly ad- i
I verse to Southern security. Peace with Mf.xi- I
co will be advocated as a measure to be honestly
: and honorably consummated at the earliest prac
; tic able period.
For the sake of brevity, we will define our course
no farther in reference to Nvi ion ai, politics and
all airs. The Republic vi 11 as ardently sustain
i Whig policy and measures in Georgia as it
will those for the Union at large. The views I
of the subscriber, in reference to State interests,
I have been so often nut forth in the columns of the
j Chronicle S? 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
(i KORGI A, and the happiness of her people, will be
! made as a free-will otiering of one of her native
; sons. The interests or Augusta wi'l receive
a large share of his attention. Whatever can add
j to her population and wealth, and the prosperity
I of her people, will he sustained by The Republic
i with unwearied devotion.
It is the fervent wish of the subscriber to see
the South and North linked in the bonds ofper
; pefual harmony and friendship. Their differences ■
j will be to The Republic a source of constant!
i solicitude, and its elforts will be warmly directed
to heal their broken affections,and point to a nation j
ai. pathway of glory, marked out by our Con
stitution and the wise precepts OF OUR I
POLITICAL fathers.
A great struggle—a period full of danger, and
worthy of solemn thought—peers up before ns in
j the eventful future. When all hope of reconcilatinn
is gone and our political constellation is darkened
i by clouds and store's, we shall be content to triumph
|or fall with tiie South. Her final destiny shall be
our destiny , and our faith and love shall be hers to
I the last.

and most valuable medicines that can be used in
imperfect digestion, liver complaints, constipation
and irregular state of the bowels. It is useful in
