nßsajßiMß.PHrwi patent fHciJlciucs. MONTHLY BULLETIN No. 3. #TIIIS WORLD has ever been tlie scene of the fiercest struggles between Truth and er nr. No sooner does < Truth propound an im i rtant theory-, than cr ies. vwks to arrest its progress. Ani t illus trious instance of this, w. s the opposition made to the immortal Jenner. His master mind was led, under Providence, to the discovery of Vaccin nat ion, by which that dreadful sconr-re the Small Pox, was robbed of its terrors. He found that the matter from the pustules upon the ud ler of a Cow contained a principle which would produce the almost divine tesuifsfor which be had so pa tiently and anxiously sought. Op» o ition arose. Interested persons, high in social rmk and profes sional position, ridiculed what they dared not deny! They asserted that manv vaccinnated per on- be came covered with hair, and even exhibited horns and a tail: and that in one ci-e a child rin on all fours, bellowin'* like a hull. Hut the current was soon turned. I'he Brifi-h Parliament voted bun £*o.ooo sterling. (5100,000.) aid tlie world sang his praises. The same spirit hits come down to nv men time*. Even while we write this Bulletin, interested per sons. jealous of the wonderful delicacy and suc cess of The G-rasf2nbure Msflicines, are opposing them. Misguided men! How utter ly impossible to arrest their spread. The most ex traordinary certificates are constantly ll iwing in to the Company from ail parts of the country ; certificates which have astonished the must re spectable citizens Many ol these testimonials have been submitted to gentlemen of great dis tinction. who have carefully ex .mined them to sec that they are genuine.

LE ROY’S SARSAPARII.LY AND WILD CHERRY PILLS, The only knows Medicine that at the SAME TIME PUiOEL PuiIIFIES, AND SrttLNGTHENS THE SYSTEM. Extract Jrom a letter written b y Dr. Gregory Tisdale , Presiding Physician of the Fleet-street Hospital. LONDON, July 7th. 1317. DR. LE ROY’S Pills are a new medicine | which has just appeared, and is fast taking the places of all others of the same class. Tnese pills arc composed of many ingredients, but the two principal ones are .Sarsaparilla and Wild Cher ry,so u uted that they act together;the one, through its admixture with other substances purify ing and purging, while the other is strengthening the sys- I lem. Thus those pills are at the same time tonic and opening, a desideratum long and eagerly sought for by mod cal men. but never before discovered. In other words they do tie work of two medicines, and d > it much better than any two we know of; for they re 11 >ve nothing mini the system h-.rf the impurities; so that while they purge they strengthen; an J hence they cause nodebdita lion, ami are followed by ni re action. Dr. Lc Roy’s Pills have a wonderful influence on the blood; thev n it oily purify without-weakening it : but they rem ive all noxious particles from the Cll vie before it is converted into lluid and thu make im > ire Ido > I a.i utter imp i s.sibility. A there is no debi.itaum.so there is i.o nun-ea or sinckaess attending the opera ions of this most ex celleut of me tici ies. vhich never strains or tortures the digestive fuuctio is. hit causes them to work n a perfectly natural manner; and whence per sous takin g them do not become pale aed cman ciate l, but the contrary: for while it is the pro perty of tua irsup irdla, united as it w ith other ngredieuts. to remive ailt i.it is forei rn and im pure, it is eq tally tie p roperty of the W ild Cherry to retain all ih it is n Dural and sinnd; and hence a robust state of health is the certain result of their united operations.

The St b-Treasi ky will be opposed, as a scheme lor keeping and disburs ing the public funds—less sate aud economical than the agency cl Hanks. The Acquisition of Foreign Territory will be opposed as unne- I ccasarv for the wants of our people, dangerous to the peace and salety ot the I a ion. and utterly ad verse to .Southern securitv.

This article is favorably received wherever it has been used. I am allowed to refer to Mr. George Heard of Troup. Mr. John Warren of Columbus, Mr. McKaffceof . Cobb. Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens. Mr. William 1). Terrell of Putnam, Rev. John PL Dawson of La grange; to which a great number of names might ’ he added, avlio hear the ir testimony to its value.— Dr. Henry Branham has used this medicine in his own case, and has prescribed it to many others, 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 tlie bowels. It is useful in billions complaints, to persons recovering from bil lions fevers.and in sick or nervous head-ache. To * pregnant women, who arc subject to costivoness, 1 this medicine is well suited. In regulating the state of (he stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion, it is particularly useful. I could append a long li-t of certificates, but for ’ bear, prefering to relv on the virtues of the medi * cine to sustain itself.

OF THE SOUTHERN LITER ARY GAZETTE, A Weekly, lo be commenced in Athens, Ga., on the \3th of May, 1313. EDITED BY WILLIAM C. RICHARDS. THERE is not,south of the Potomac, a single weekly Journal whose sole object is to devel op and foster literary taste and talent in tnc>omh, and this fact is certainly a sufficient reason lor an ' earnest attempt to establish such a journal. Ihe i failure of previous efforts cannot be regarded by j UiC intelligent mind as an argument against such j an attempt. The failures may have been, and i probably were, the result of circumstances no lon ger existing. The need ot such an organ in our midst is so universally acknowledged. that not to attempt to supply the deficiency would indicate a disregard of the signs of the times scarcely more surprising than inexcusable. The progress of the age aud the rapid advance ment of the S »uih in commerce, manufactures and : internal improvement, imparatively demand a cor- ' responding adv. nee in literature. To aid in this great object, it is proposed to e-tabiish a weekly Joarnal at the seat of the t Diversity of Georgia, I and to rally round it the best writers of the South. This, it is believed, from man} considerations, can ; be readily accomplished. The Editor is already assured of the support of hi- able coadjutors in the (Jriru, magazine, and also of much other a—istance from the most pro minent writers of the South. The Gazette will be made up of matter both original and selected; and will comprise tales, es-ays. sketches of travel, poetry, criticisms, and a general miscellany ol in formation iu all departments of Literature Art and Science. Particular attention will be given to scientific and practical mechanics. In mechanical execution it shall be surpassed by no conternporay, and the aid of the fine arts shall j not be wanting to enhance its atti action. The E Iltor confidently appeals to the fr onds of Literature in the South; and he is happy to an- j ! noiince that the enterprise isone of n<> doubtful j issue. Bv private effort a large and generous li-t has been obtained, and upwards of On f. Thous * N D S i bsi hirers have pledged their support to the j Paper. Until this was accompli-hed, the Editor J wa- unwidingto publish his Prospectus, but it is ; now given to the pub ic with The unequivocal as- ! surance that the Gazette shall be permanent. It is strorglv ho »ed, therefore, that every friend of letti rs in the South to whom this Prospectus may be sent will feel a special interest in procuring subscriptions; for it is important that not merely a hare support be accorded to such a work, but that it - hall be so well sustained as t<* afford to the pub lisher the means and incentives for increasing its attractions in every succes>ive volume. TERMS. 1. The Southern Literal v G 'retie shall be pub- ' lished weekly, on a handsome imperial quarto of eight pages, printed from new type, on fine white | papt r.

We shall increase the volume at least one-tli rd beyond the ordinary bulk; and endeavor to add toils usefulness by extending slid further its large circulation Thi-last is not the Jea-t important point in the view of ( oagress. Faithful and durable reports ol the debates rs the bom are of value in proportion to the extent of their circulation among the people. It is in this way that Congress is brought into the presence of its remote constituents—that it obtains easy access and holds communication with them from d <y today, aud renders the government real ity representative. I laving received from all parties in Congress the strongest marks of approbation and confidence in tiie liberal means am! permanent contract voted to continue the work, we siiaii not be found wanting in the impartiality and industry m cessary to the due fulfilment of tiie engagement on our part. The next session will task to the utmost the best efforts of B’ose connected with the undertaking. It will be distinguished by 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 tarnish subjects of profound inquiry and consideration. The terms of peace, the dis position to be ma le of conquest?, 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 discus sions, rendering tnc councils at Washington during the next year as pregnant of good or evil to this those nfliorae were to the Old World in the days of Iter early energy. Such a It Id for deliberation and action was never presented to any , Congress. Ail that has transpired, or may here after transpire before the close > f the approaching session of Congress, in New Mexico, California, in the capital of Mexico, and the provinces still tle pendenton it. will come under the consideration oi the next Congress. Its debates wilt contain the history of the war. and its action determine its re- j suits, whether they he. decided by arms cr diplo- j macy. And whatever is developed concerning j this vast and interesting matter on the floor of Con- 1 gross or in the Executive messages, will be found j recorded in the Congressional Globe and Ap pk.ni IN. 'i’he Congressional Globe is made up of the daily proceedings of the two Houses of Congress, and printed on superfine double royal paper, with small type, (brevier and nonpareil.) m quarto form, each number containing sixteen royal quarto pages, rite speeches of the members i t this first form, are condensed —the full report of the prepared i speeches being reserved for the Appendix. Ail resolutions, met ons. and other proceedings, are | given in the form of the Journals, with the yeas and nays on every important question. Every member will bate an opportunity to read his remarks before they are put to press, and alter our report, if be shall think it incorrect. The Appendix is made up of tiie President’s an nual message, the reports of the principal officers of the government that accompany it. and all speeches of the members of Congress, written out or revised by themselves. It is printed in the i same lorm as the Con;; regional Globe, and usually makes about the same number of pages during a I 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 tiie Appendix; butduring the re mainder of a session, there is usually sufficient mat ter for two or three numbers of each every week. The next session will be unusually interesting, therefore, we, calculate that the Congressional (liobe and Appendix together will make near 3,000 larcre quarto pages, printed in small type —brevier and nonpareil. We furnish complete Indexes to both at the end of asession. We will endeavor to print a sufficient number of surplus copies to supply all that may be miscar ried, or lost in 1 lie mails ; but subscribers should be very particular to file their papers carefully, for fear that we should not be able to supply all the lost numbers. Wf have a few surplus copies of tiie Congression ; al Globe for the last session of Congress, which we will sell for the original subscription price —$ 1 a copy. We have no surplus copies of the Appendix for that session. TERMS.

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 eflec.cd 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 } fit rnph revs' Remedy for Fern- and Ague.
