PURIFIES, and Strengthens THE SYSTEM. Extract from a letter written by Dr. Gregory Tisdale , Presiding Physician of the Flcet~strcet Hospital. I.ON DON, July 7th, 1816. DR. LE ROY’S Pills are a new medicine i which has just appeared, and is fast taking the places of all others of the same class. These pills are composed of many ingredients, hut 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 sa s lera. Thus those pills arc at the same rime tonic and opening, a desideratum long and eagerly sought for by raed cal men. but never before jdi scovered. In other words they do the work of 1 two medicines, and do it much better than any two we know of; for they remove nothing from the system but the impurities; so that while they purge they strengthen;and hence they cause no debilita tion, and are followed by no re action. Dr. Le Roy’s Pills have a wonderful influence on the blood; they not only purify without-weakening it, but they remove all noxious particles from the I chyle before it is converted into fluid and thus 1 make impure blood an utter impossibility. As there is no debilitation, so there is no nausea or sinckriess attending the operations of this most ex cellent of medicines.which never strains or tortures the digestive functions.-hut causes them to work ji 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 ngredients. to remove all that is foreign and im I pure.it is equally the p-openly of the Wild Cherry ; •to retain all that is natural and sound; and hence a robust state of health is the certain result of their united operations.

O’This is the title of a New Paper, which the subschibkr proposes'to publish in the city of Augusta. The Republic will advocate with zeal, and main tain with fidelity, the great and conservative prin ciples of the Whig Party. Hume Industry will receive a cordial support, and be ardently sus tained in opposition to systems calculated to foster foreign interests at the expense of American. The Distribution among the States of the Proceeds of the Svles or the Public Lands, will be urged as - Shon as the state of the national finances will permit, as a measure of ex pediency and justice. The Sub-Treasury will lie 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 for the wants of our people, dangerous to the peace and safety ot the Union, and utterly ad verse to Shut hern security. Peace with Mexi co will be advocated as a measure to be honestly and honorably consummated at the curliest prac licable 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, have been so often put forth in the columns of the Chronicle Sentinel that it is unnecessary to re iterate them now. Suffice it to say, that eVcrv effort which the Republic can make to add to the prosperity of the great commonwealth of 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 wi l receive a large share of his attention. Whatever can add to iier 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 thMr broken affections',and point to an a no:.* al pathway of glory, marked out by our Con stitution AND THE WISE PRECEPT'S CF OUR POLITICAL FATHERS'. A great struggle—-"a period full of danger and worthy of solemn thought—peers up before us in the eventful future. hen all hope ofrcconcilation is gone and our political constellation is darkened by clouds and storms, we shhlfbe 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 DISTINC-UiSlfKI) WlilGS FOR THE FIRST OFFICE Wn'FflW THE GIFT OF THE PEOPI.E, 'l'll E REPUB LIC W ILL SUSTAIN THOSE OF THE GREATEST Statesman of 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 ING DEVOTION TO HIS COUNTRY, and PUBLIC SER VICES, WHICH HAVE GIVEN HEM A HOME IN THE HEARTS OF HIS CO U NTll V MEN ,A N D THE NATION A Lofty ch a r alter abroad. Ills genius and practi cal wisdon hu •» illumined our councils, and blessed the ili.puHLic, while even sages have been fascinated by his eloquence in defence of the Constitution and in efforts to preserve the Union. Like a Star of Hope, heyct shines in the West, and patriots stHb hlfik to his radiant in flucnce to ke-ileu.minethe clouded prospects of the Republic. This, however, will be no factions support. Tit v Republic will give its best energies toeffee* the election of 11 IM, whom the Whigs may choose to lead them to anticipated victory. Besides its political information, the Kept blic will furnish the current news of 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 cure wHI be paid to its CO M M E R C t A L D E P A R T M E N T . The readers of tlie Chronicle S' Sentinel have had, in the editorial columns of that paper for the last twenty months, specimens of such ability for writing a> the subscriber possesses; the leading editorials for that period, with few exceptions, having been written by himself, lie desires to cultivate a cordial good feeling with his brethren of the Whig and Democratic Press. The ■ latter shall find in The Republic, a frank, manlv. an.l 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 ENTEKT'-* INMF.NT AND GOOD, AND THE TRIUMPH OF THE PRINCIPLES OF THE Whig PARTY. The Republic will be published Tiu-Wf.eki.v and Weekly,and also I) vii.y, if the patronage will authorize it, and will be printed on new and beau tiful type. As the first ‘Lumber will be issued at or near the commencement of the next year, the Sub 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 a medium sheet, the details of news to be copious, without unnecessary prolixity. The Weekly pa per will be a large sheet. (7.3 by 38 inches.) Terms.—Tri-Weekly, £4; Weekly, £2. Payment in advance, or upon the reception of the first number. JAMES M. SMYTIiE. October 28 th, 1817. 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 eases incident to a Southern climate, I do not claim for it infallibility; neither do I say it will cure ail diseases' But in Chronic Liver Affections and Dyspepsia, I can confidently advise and recom mend its use. from my personal observation and use of the article in ray own practice. 'Phis 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. McKaffee of Cobb, Mr. Asbury Hull of Athens, Mr. William D. Terreii of Putnam, Rev. John E. Dawson of La 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 and most valuable medicines that can be used in 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 of the stomach and bowels, and promoting digestion, it is particularly useful. 1 could append a long list of certificates, but for bear, prefering to rely on the virtues of the medi cine to sustain itself. The medicine is a gentle and certain cathartic, tonic and sudorific. JOEL BRANHAM, Eatonton, Ga. Price §1 —For sale by A. G. WILLIS. March 11 AUGUSTA- FOUNDRY, MILE Vmir.fjfT & MACHINE SHOP.

TIAHERE is not. south of the Potomac, a single JL weekly Journal whose sole object is to devel op and foster literary taste and talent in the South, and this tact is certainly a sufficient reason for an earnest attempt to establish such a journal. The failure ot previous efforts cannot be regarded by tiie intelligent mind as an argument against such i an attempt. The failures may have been, and i probably were, the result of circumstances no lon- I ger existing. The need ot such an organ in our ■ midst is so universally■ acknowledged, that not to I attempt to supply the deficiency would indicate a i disregard of the signs of the times scarcely more i 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 adv; nee 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. 1 'This, if is believed, from man y considerations, can be readily accomplished. The Editor is already assured of the support of l hi- able coadjutors in the Orion magazine, and also of much other assistance from the most pro- I minent writers of the South. The Gazette will be I made up of matter both original and selected; and will eomprLe tales, essays, sketches of travel, poetry, criticisms, and a general miscellany of in formation in all departments of Literature Art and Science. Particular attention will be given to scientific and practical mechanics. In mechanical execution it shall he surpassed by no contemporay, and the aid of the fine arts shall not be wanting to enhance its attraction. The Editor confidently appeals to the friends of Lite-attire in the South; and lie is happy- to an nounce that the enterprise isone of no doubtful issue. By private effort a large and generous list has been obtained, and upwards of One Thousand Subscribers have pledged their support to the Paper. Until tins was accomplished, the Editor was unwilling to publish his Prospectus, but it is now given to the public with the unequivocal as surance that the Gazette shall be permanent. It is strongly hoped, therefore, that every friend of letters 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 bare support be accorded to such a work, but that it shall be so well sustained as t<> afford to the pub lisher the means and incentives for increasing its attractions in every successive volume. TERMS. }. 'The Southern Literary Gazette shall be pub lished weekly, on a handsome imperial quarto of eight pages, printed from new type, on tine white paper. 2.

FOR THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX. ? ’ft W. issue this Prospectus to apprise the public f T of renewed preparations on our part to pub lish the CONGRESSION AL GLOBE &L API'EN DIX for the approaching session, and to invite subscriptions. The two Houses having contracted with us for the work, on such terms us enable us now to make complete reports, to multiply and issue the numbers in quicker sue ession 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. »Ve shall increase the volume at least one-third beyond the ordinary bulk: and endeavor to add to its usefulness by extending still I further its large circulation This last is not the least important point in the ■ view of Congress. Faithful and durable reports ol j the debates ot the body are ol value in proportion 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 ; easy access and- holds communication with them j from day today, and renders the government ;eal j ity representative. Having received from all parties in Congress the strongest marks of approbation and confidence in the liberal means and permanent contr-bt /oted to continue the work, we shall not 1c found 1 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 of those 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 furnish subjects of profound inquiry 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 discus sions, rendering tne councils at Washington during the next year as pregnant of good or evil to.chis continent as those of Rome were to the Oh’ World in the days of Iter early energy'. Such a fi Id for delibc Ution 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 its re sults, whether they be decided by arms or diplo macy. And whatever is developed concerning this vast and interesting matter on the floor of Con gress nr in the Executive messages, will be found recorded in the Congressional Globe and At>- PF.ffplX. The Congressional Globe is made up of the daily proceedings of the two Houses of Congress, and I printed on superfine double royal paper, with small j type, (brevier and nonpareil,) in quarto form, each number containing sixteen royal quarto pages. The speeches of the members in this first form, are condensed—the full report of the prepared speeches being reserved for the Appendix. All , resolutions, mot ons. and other proceedings, arc given in the form of the Journals, with the yeas I 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. The Appendix is made up of the 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 form as the Congressional Globe, and usually | makes about the same number of pages during a I session. During the first month, or six weeks of a session, i 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 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 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.

FLORIDA ' tlj'/LNS of this beautiful andhcallhy State \ V allow me, a native Georgian, the pleasure to ail vour attention to one of the greatest and most .uvi'.l Medicines ever discovered—one of a simple ana harmless nature—one w hich has proved itself to be an infallible remedy for the FKI Lil AND' | AGUE, effecting a certain and speedy cure. The | time mentioned is truly very short, and will be doubted by tnuhv, but I have certificates From llie | First Pitysictans and oF gentlemen ot the highest re spectability of .Savannah, where 1 reside. It i* known by all that a poison will soon circulate | through and effect the w hole human system, then i whv not a simple and one that is harmless?

Citizens of Florida: it is not my intention ; to weary your patience with a siring of uonselisi j or ol advertisements, fur 1 can assure you that 1 am pretty well used up in this part of the work; but I wish you to try this Medicine and satisfy vour* ■ selves, and you will for the first time belieVe that a disease could be cured in Tu-e.lv t Hours, and the only w ay to prove it is to try it. 1 really do not know why a Southern Medicine j should nrst be as goad as one that is manufactured ! at the j\orth.
