THIS WOR LD has ®ver been the scene of the fiercest struggles /itj / t. | between Truth and er- K- Ji \A ror ‘ No sooner does /<jf/ **rT7 V \ Troth propound an im ( j |P :)rtant theory, than er i ! ' I ror, with its legion of al- V \ Vxl- ■*; I I lies, seeks to arrest its \ \ / / progress. A most ilins- ■ \\ * jffiSlpK* J / trious instance of this, j 'V \ %.y was the opposition made to l^e i millorta l Jenner. i W His master mind was j led under Providence, to the discovery of Vaccin- i nation bv which that dreadful scourge the Small Pox, was robbed of its terrors. He found that | the matter from the pustules upon the udder of a i cow contained a principle which would produce j the almost divine results for which he had so pa tiently and anxiously sought. Opposition arose. ! Interested persons, high in social rank and proses- i sional position, ridiculed what they dared not deny! I Thev asserted that many vaccinuated persons be- j came covered with hair, and even exhibited horns and a tail; and that in one case a child ran on all- i fours, bellowing like a bull. But the current was soon turned. The British Parliament voted him i £20,000 sterling, (£100,000,) and the world sang j his praises. The same spirit has come down to our own times, . Even while we write this Bulletin, interested per sons, jealous of the wonderful delicacy and sue- j eess of The Graefenburg Medicines, are opposing them. Misguided men ! How utter- ; ly impossible to arrest their spread. The most ex- | traordinary certificates are constantly flowing in • to the Company from all parts of the country; j certificates which have astonished the most re spectable citizens. Many of these testimonials j have been submitted to gentlemen of great dis- j tinction, who have carefully examined them to sec I that they are genuine. Among these, are the names of the Rev. N. Bangs, f). 1)., of the Metho- j dist Episcopal Church, and Francis Hall, Esq., ed- I itor of the New Vork Commercial Advertiser. | We finally submitted the whole to the lion. WM. I V. BRA DY, the Mayor of New York, who has giv- 1 cn his certificate, under the Croat Seal of the City, that they are genuine and reliable. With such names, we fear no opposition. We are fortified at every point, and solicit a contin uance of the unexampled patronage we have al ready received. We would earnesely advise— -Ist. That in every neighborhood where there is no Craefenberg Depot, immediate steps be taken to have one. By addressing the General Agent of any district, this can be secured. 2d.

LE ROY’S SARSAPARILLA AND WILD CHERRY PILLS, The only known Medicine that at the SAME TIME PtJROES, PtJRUTES, and Strengthens THE SYSTEM. Extract from a letter written by Dr. Gregory Tisdale, Presiding Physician of tkc Fleet-street \ Hospital. LONDON, July 7th, 18W. DR. LE ROY’S Pi 11s are a new medicine which has just appeared, and is fast taking the places of all others of the same class. These pills are composed of many ingredients, but the two principal ones are Sarsaparilla and Wild Cher ry,so united that they act together; the one, through its admixture with other substances purifying and purging, while the other is strengthening the sys- i term Thus those pills are at the same time tonic | and opening, a desideratum long and eagerly sought for by meJ.cal men. but never before discovered. In other words they do the work of two medicines, and do it much better than any two ive know of; for they remove nothing from the system but the impurities; so that while they purge | they strengthen;and hence they cause nodebilita- i tion, and are followed by no re action. Dr. Le 1 Roy’s Pills have a wonderful influence on the ! blood; they not only purify without-weakening it, j but they remove all noxious particles from the ' chyle before it is converted into fluid and thus j make impure blood an utter impossibility. As there is no debilitation, so there is no nausea or sinckness attending the operations of this most ex cellent of medicines.which never strains or tortures the digestive functions, but causes them to work n a perfectly natural manner; and whence per sons taking them do not become pale and eman ciated, but the contrary; for while it is the pro petty of the Sarsaparilla, united as it with other j ngredients. to remove all that is foreign and im pure, it is equally (he property of the Wild Cherry j to retain all that is natural and sound; and hence a robust state of health is the certain result of their united operations.

(HTThis is the title of a New Paper, which the subscriber proposes to publish iu the citv of Augusta. The Republic will advocate with zeal, and main tain with fidelity, the great and conservative prin ciples of the Whig Party. Home Industry will receive a cordial support, and be ardently sus tained in opposition to systems calculated to foster j foreign interests at the expense of j The Distribution among the States of the Proceeds ok the Sales oe the Public 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 ot 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 honestly 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, j have been so often put forth in the columns of the Chronicle 4* 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 j 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 1 j a large share of his attention. Whatever can add i 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 n atioN 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 all hope of reconcilation 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 of distinguished Whigs for the first office within the gift of the people, The Repub lic WILL SUSTAIN THOSE OF THE GREATEST ! Statesman ok 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 his fame, for that is founded upon UNDY ; iNo devotion to his country, and public ser i vices, which have given him a home in the j HEARTS OE HIS COUNTRYMEN, LSI) THE NATION a lofty character abkoad. His genius and practi cal wisdon have illumined our councils, and blessed the Republic, while even sages have been fascinated by his eloquence in defence of the Constitution and in efforts topresf.rve th f. Union. Like a Sta kof Hope, he yet shines in the West, and patriots still look to his radiant in lluence to re-illumine the clouded prospects lof TH E REP U BLIC. 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 will furnish the CURRENT news ok the day, and will be constant ly enriched with interesting tales, essays, his torical sketches, and other literature, se lected with a strict reference to its purity and ex cellence. It will zealously maintain the cause of education. Particular care will be paid to its ; COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT. The readers of the Chronicle »$* Sentinel have had, in the editorial columns of that paper for the last twenty months, specimens of such ability for writing as the subscriber possesses} the leading editorials for that period, with few exceptions, having been written by himself. He desires to .Cultivate a cordial good feeling Avith his BRETHREN of the Whig and Df.Nl»ckatic Press. The latter shall find in The Republic, a frank, manly, and honorable opposition. The Subscriber, in conclusion, asks for a gen erous confidence and liberal patronage; and PROMISES IN RETURN, CONSTANT AND IN CREASED EXERTIONS TO PROMOTE THE PUBLIC | ENTERTAINMENT AND GOOD, AND THE TRIUMPH OF THE PRINCIPLES OF THE WHIG PARTY. The Republic will be published Tki-Wef.ki.y and Weekly,and also D aily, if the patronage will authorize it, and will be printed on new and beau | tiful type. As the first number will be issued at or near the commencement of the next year, the Si;b scriber respectfully asks of those who favor the enterprize, to send on their names as early as pos sible. The Tri-Weekly Republic will be issued on j a medium sheet, the details of news to be copious, without unnecessary prolixity. The Weekly pa per will be a large sheet, (26 by .‘>B inches.) Terms.—Tri-Weekly, $4; Weekly, $2. Payment in adv ance, or upon the reception of the first number. JAMES M. S3IVTHE. October 28th, 1C 17. DR. JOEL BRANHAM’S LIVER AND 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, 1 do not claim for it infallibility; neither do I say it will cure all 1 diseases. But in Chronic Liver Affections and Dyspepsia, I cun confidently adA’ise and recom j mend its use, from my personal observation and use of the article in my own practice. 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. McKaft’ee of Cobb. Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. William D. Terrell of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dawson of La i grange; to which a great number of names might be added, who bear their 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 I and most valuable medicines that can be used in 1 imperfect digestion, liver complaints, constipation and irregular state of the 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 are subject to costiveness, this medicine is well suited. In regulating the state j of the stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion, it is particularly useful. I could append a long list of certificates, but for j bear, prefering to rely on the virtues of the modi cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle and certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific.

WU*US r Agent. 1 July 6 12 PROSPECTUS. OF THE southern literary gazette, A Weekly, to be commenced in Athens, Ga., on the J 13f/t of May, 1848. 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 the South, and this fact is certainly a sufficient reason lor an earnest attempt to establish such a journal. The failure of previous efforts cannot be regarded by | the intelligent mind as an argument against such ; an attempt. The failures may have been, and j probably were, the result of circumstances no lon ger existing. The need of 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 and the rapid advance ment of the South in commerce, manufactures and internal improvement, imparatively demand a cor responding advance in literature. To aid in this great object, it is proposed to establish a weekly I Joarnal at the seat of the University of Georgia, and to rally round it the best writers of the South. J This, it is believed, from man} considerations, can be readily accomplished. The Editor is already assured of the support of ! his able coadjutors in the Orion magazine, and also of much other assistance 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, essays, sketches of travel, - ! poetry, criticisms, and a general miscellany of in formation imall 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 conteraporay, ami the aid of the fine arts shall not be wanting to enhance its attraction. The Editor confidently appeals to the friends of Literature in the South; and he is happy to an- ! nounce that the enterprise is one of no doubtful issue. By private effort a large and generous list | has been obtained, and upwards of On E Thous.i ND i Subsckibershave pledged their support to the j Paper. Until this was accompli.-hed, the Editor j was unwilling to publish his Prospectus, but it is ! now given to the public with the unequivocal as- j surance that the Gazette shall be permanent. It is strongly hoped, therefore, that every friend of 1 | letters in the South to whom this Prospectus may j . be sent will feel a special interest in procuring subscriptions; for it is important that not merely a bare support be accorded to such a work, but that it shall be so well sustained as to afford to the pub- ! lisber the means and incentives for increasing its attractions in every successive volume. TERMS. I 1 1. The Southern Literary Gazette shall be pub lished weekly, on a handsome imperial quarto of eight pages, printed from new type, on fine white paper. 2. It will furnish to single subscribers at Tiro Dollars per annum in adrancej and to clubs of six for Ten Dollars. {XZ7=A 11 communications, not containing remit tances or solicited articles, must be post-paid toen- I sure attention.

FOR THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX. 'a tl r E issue this Prospectus to apprise the public \ T of renewed preparations on onr part to pub lish the CONG HESS 10 NA L GLOBE & APPEN DIX for the approaching session, and to invite subscriptions. The two Houses having contracted j with Us for the work, on such terms as enable us now to make complete reports, to multiply and issue the numbers in quicker sue-ession than here- 1 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. W e 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 ot j I the debates of the body are of value in proportion i to the extent of their circulation among the people. It is in this way that Congress is brought into the I presence of its remote constituents—that it obtains j easy access and holds communication with them from day today, and renders the government real- , ity representative. Having received from all parties in Congress the strongest marks of approbation and confidence in the liberal means and permanent contract voted to continue the work, we shall not be found wanting in the impartiality and industry necessary to the due fulfilment of the engagement on our part. The , next session will task to the utmost the best efforts l of those connected with the undertaking. It will be distinguished by discussions of extraordinary in- | tercst and results of abiding concern. The war, its origin and conduct by officers in the cabinet and ■ in the field, will furnish subjects of profound inquiry 1 and consideration. The terms of peace, the dis position to be made of conquests, the consequences to be drawn from all that lias 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- 1 sions,rendering tne councils at Washington during the next year as pregnant of good or evil tojthis continent as those of Rome were to the Old World in the days of her early energy. Such a fi- Id for deliberation and action was never presented to any Congress. All that has transpired, or may here 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 pendent on it, will come under the consideration of the next Congress. Its debates will contain the history of the war. and its action determine iisre- i suits, whether they be decided by arms or diplo- | macy. And whatever is developed concerning , this vast and interesting matter on the floor ofCon i gress or in the Executive messages, will be found | recorded in the Congressional Globe and Ap | PENDIX. | The Congressional Globe is made up of the daily j proceedings of the two Houses of Congress, and I I printed on superfine double royal paper, with small j j type, (brevier ami nonpareil,) in quarto form, each j number containing sixteen royal quarto pages. ; i The speeches of the members in this first form, ' are condensed—the full report of the prepared I speeches being reserved for the Appendix. All 1 resolutions, mot ons, and other proceedings, are given in the form of the Journals, with the yeas and nays on every important question. Every member will have an opportunity to read his remarks before they are put to press, and alter : our report, if he shall think it incorrect, i The Appendix is made up of the President’s an ! 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 is printed in the 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—>ne of the Congressional Globe and one of the Appendix; but during the re -1 mainder of a session, there is usually sufficient mat i ter for two or three numbers of each every week, i The 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. We furnish complete Indexes to both at the end of a session. We will endeavor to print a sufficient number of surplus copies to supply all that may be miscar ried, or lost in the mails ; but subscribers should he very particular to file their papers carefully, for fear that we should not be able to supply all the lost numbers. We have a few surplus copies of the Congressinn- ; al Globe for the last session of Congress, which we | will sell for the original subscription price—$i a cony. j We have no surplus copies of the Appendix for that session.

FLORIDA I , •=‘TIZEXS of this beautiful and healthy State \j allow me. a native Georgian, the pleasure to j . uii your attention to one of the greatest and most | u.«.i»d Medicines ever discovered —one of a simple j ana harmless nature —one which has proved itscll to be an infallible remedy for the FE\£R AND AGUE, effecting a certain and speedy cure. '1 he I time mentioned is truly very short, and will be doubted by manv. but I have certificates from the first Physicians and of gentlemen of the highest re spectability of Savannah, where I reside. It is known by all that a poison will soon circulate : through and effect I lie whole human system, then ! why not a simple and one that is harmless? J his Medicine is not a Aor I her?: Humbug, but a ern Remedy altogether. It is made in the city of | Savannah ■ —it is recommended by citizens id »Si | rannah, Georgia. South Carolina. Florida, Ac.; and jto be candid, all my Printing i- Suuthet n, e cted by Mr. E. J. Fume, of Savannah; so yon wi.l at once see it is altogether a Southerner, and it it was m\ intention to inunkv t: any c-'iUDiunity, 1 would fl I not choose irentlemen s names that are well! known I and in the same place where I reside. I submit the testimony of residents of this citv . among whom are the first Physicians, and I presi me }> u arc acquainted with many of them. The Medi j cine offered to the world, is a sale, certain and speedy cure for Fever and Ague, which it will do in the very short space of Twelve Mows. 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 on hand. Citizens of Florida it is not my intention to weary vour patience with a string of nonsense or ot advertisements,for I can assure you that 1 am prettv well used up in this part of ibe work; but 1 wish you to try this Medicine and satisfy your selves, and you will for the first time believe that ! a disease could be cured in Twelve Hours, and the only way to prove it is to try it. ( really do not know why a Southern Medicine I 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. I admit there are manv other remedies, but not one that can be 1 conic 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, vert strange, that truth should need so much boasting at last; but such is this world. 1 will not tax you with any more of A this, but willingly I leave the Medicine to re com- " 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 is a Vege table only. 1 am respectfully, yours, &.C. W. H UM PI 1 RE VS. Jr..
