PatcnW^bicines. MONTHLY BULLETIN No. 3. ®TII IS WORLD ha* ever been the sceneot the fiercest struggles between Truth and er ror. No sooner does 1 Truth propound an ini- j portant theory, than er- ; ror, with its legion of al- | lies, seeks to arrest its : progress. A most Ulus trious instance ot this, j was the opposition made to the immortal Jenner. ' His master mind was led under Providence, to the discovery of Vaccin ation. bv which that dreadful scourge the Small p ox was robbed of its terrors, lie found that the matter from the pustules upon the udder of a cov contained a principle which would produce the almost divine results for which he had so pa tiently and anxiously sought. Opposition arose. Interested persons, high in social rank and profes sional position, ridiculed what they dared not deny! Thev asserted that many vaccinnated persons be came covered with hair, and even exhibited horns and a tail; and that in one case a child ran on all fours bellowing like a bull. But the current was soon turned. The British Parliament voted him £20,000 sterling, (5100,000.) and the world sang his praises. The same spirit lias come down to our own times. Even while wc write this Bulletin, interested per sons, jealous of the wonderful delicacy and suc cess of The Graefenburg Medicines, a’e opposing them. Misguided men! I low utter ly impossible to arrest their spread. The most ex traordinary certificates are constantly flowing iu to the Company from all parts of the country ; certificates which have astonished the most re spectable citizens.

Extract from a letter written by Dr. Gregory Tisdale, Presiding Physician of the Fleet-street Hospital. LONDON, July 7th, 1816. DR. LE ROY’S Pills are a new medicine J 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 sys tem. Thus those pills are at the same time tonic and opening, a desideratum long and eagerly sought for by medical men. hut never before discovered. In other words they do the work of two medicines, and do it much better than any two wc 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 bv no re-action. Dr. Lc IMMI, aim aiu lumnvuu u y nw tt-uvuuu. i-'i .ut Roy's Pills have a wonderful influence on the blood; they not only purify without-weakening it, hut they remove all noxious particles from the chyle before it is converted into fluid, and thus 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 cman ciated, but the contrary; for while it is the pro perty of the Sarsaparilla, united as it with other ngredients. to remove all that is foreign and im pure, it is equally the property of the Wild Cherry to retain all that is natural and sound; and lienee a robust state of health is the certain result of their united operations.

OF THE SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE, A Weekly, lo be commenced in Athens, Ga., on the 1 3lh of Ma ij, 1 o R!. EDITED BY WILLIAM C. RICHARDS, nnHERE is not, south of the Potomac, a single X 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 for 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 probably were, the result of circumstances no lon ger existing. The need of such an organ in our midst is so universally ackonwledged. that not to attempt to supply the deficiency would indicate a I disregard of the signs of the times scarcely more surprising than inexcusable. The progress of the age and the rapid advance ' meat of the South in commerce, manufactures and internal improvement, imnarativcly demand acor responding advance in literature. To aid in this I great object, it is proposed to establish a weekly , Journal a’ the seat of the University of Georgia, and to rally round it the best writers of the South. This, it is believed, from many considerations, can be readily accomplished, j The Editor is already assured of the support of his able coadjutors in the Orion magazine, and i also of much other assistance from the most pro i 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 in all departments of Literature, Art and 1 Science. Particular attention will be given to | scientific and practical mechanics. In mechanical execution it shall be surpassed by no contemporay, and the aid of the line 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 isonc of no doubtful issue. By private effort a large and generous list has been obtained, and upwards of On e Thousand Subscribers have pledged their support to lire Paper. Until this 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 t’rosneclus may I tellers in me ouuiii unimums I luspeuius liiav i be sent will feel a special interest in procuring i 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 lisher the means and incentives for increasing its j attractions in every successive volume. TERMS. 1. The Southern Literary Gazette shall he pub lished weekly, on a handsome imperial quarto ol eight pages, printed from new type, on fine paper. 2. It will furnish to single subscril crs at Two Dollars per annum in advance-, and to clubs of six for Ten Dollars. communications, not containing remit ! tancesor solicited articles, must be post-paid toeu- I sure attention. [LP’Editors desiring an exchange, will please copy and notice this prospectus, and send their | papers marked ‘‘ Gazette,” Athens, Ga. WM. C. RICHARDS, i April 23 6 • PROSPECTUS. FOR THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX. ■¥ITE issue this Prospectus to apprise the public v of renewed preparations on our pari to pub lish the CONGRESSION AL GLOBE X, APPEN DIX for the approaching session, and to invite subscriptions. The two Houses having contracted | with us for the work, on such terms as enable us I 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 I furtherits large circulation. 'Phis last is not the least important point in the the debates of the body 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 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 I continue the work, we shall not he found wanting j 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 jof 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 i 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 iu this country, and especially as bear ing on the approaching Presidential election, will open up novel and powerfully operating discus sions, rendering the councils at Washington during the next year as pregnant of good or evil to-this lilt lit Al y vai V* ui t Vll lU| lllh') : continent as those of Rome were to the Ok) World in the days of her early energy. Such a so ld for j deliberation and action was never presented to any Congress. All that has transpired, or may here ! after transpire before the close of the approaching I 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 ('digress. 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 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 proceedings of the two Houses of Congress, and printed on superfine double royal paper, with small 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 I resolutions, motions, and other proceedings, are I given in the form of the Journals, with the veas i and nays on every important question. Every member will have an opportunity to read his remarks before they are put to press, ami alter i our report, if he shall think it incorrect. I The Appendix is made up of the President’s an j nual message, the reports of the principal officers 1 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 duriu tr 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 mainder of a session, there is usually sufficient mat ter lor two or three numbers of each every week. I’he next session will be unusually interesting, therefore, v, e, 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 mads ; but subscribers he luai ouuatuuerS SllOUlu DC very particular to file their papers carefully for fear that we should not he able to supply all the lost numbers. We have a few surplus copies of the Congression al Globe for the last session of Congress, which we will sell for the original subscription price—v’l a copy.

THE REPUBLIC. ffjpThis is the title of a New Paper, -j which the subscriber 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. Home 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 ok the Proceeds of the Sales of the Public Lands, will be urged as soon as the state ol the national finances will permit, as a measure of ex pediency and justice. 'l'be Sub-Treasury will J 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 for the wants of our people, dangerous to the peace and safety of 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 lo 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 ol the Chronicle Jj- Sentinel that it is unnecessary to re iterate them now. Snflice it to say r that every effort which the Republic can make to add to the prosperity of the great commonwealth <>f 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 . a large share of his attention. Whatever can add to her population and wealth, and the prosperity of her people, will be sustained by The Republic 1 with unwearied devotion. It is the fervent wish of the subscriber to see I 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 nation t al PATHWAY OF GLORY, marked out by our UoN f 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 ofreconcilation 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 WIIIGS FOR THE FIRST OFFICE WITHIN THE GIFT OF THE PEOPLE, THE REPUB LIC WILL SUSTAIN THOSE OK THE GREATEST Statesman of the age, HENRY CLAY.

His genius and practi cal wisdon have illumined our councils, and blessed the REPUBLIC, while even sages have been fascinated by liis eloquence is defence of the Constitution and in efforts toprksekve the Union. Like a Star of Hope, he yet shines in the West, and patriots still look to his radiant in fluence to re-illuminethe clouded prospects of the Republic. This, however, will be no factious support. Th e 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. i The readers of the Chronicle 4* Sentinel have i 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 . ..... . - *i»«t period, with few exceptions, having been written by huusylf.

Ihe time mentioned is truly very short, and will be doubted by many, but 1 have certificates from the first Physicians and f gentlemen of the highest re spectability of Sa\ nnah, where 1 reside, if is known by all that a poison will soon circulate I through and effect the whole human system, then o w i ivmln mtw I \*w» tli dt I r l 1 1 i ».• why not a simple and one that is harmless' 1 Ins I Medicine is not a Northern Humbug, but a South ern Remedy altogether. It is made in the city of Savannah —it is recommended by citizens of Sa i runneth, Georgia, South Cai -aa. Florida. &c.; and to be candid, ail my Printing is Southern, executed | by Mr. E. J. Purse, of Sar. •» nah; so you will at once see it is altogether a Southerner, and if it was 1 my intention to humbug any community, I would not choose gentlemen's names that are welll known and in the same place where I reside. I submit the testimony of residents of this city, among whom are the first Physicians, and I presume you ! are acquainted with many of them. The Medi j cine offered to the world, is a safe, certain and speedy cure for Fever and Ague, which it will do in the very short space of Twelve /'fours. As Fieri -1 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 j to weary your patience with a string of nonsense or ol advertisements, for I can assure you that 1 am pretty well used up in this part of the work 3 but I wish you to try this Medicine and satisfy your selves, and you will for the first time believe that a disease could he cured in Twelve Hours,and the only way to prove it is to try it. j I really do not know why a Southern Medicine should not be as good as one that is manufactured at the JVorth. My Medicine has effected a perfect i 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 Humphreys- Remedy fur Fever and Ague. Only think for a moment. Twelve Hours 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 of this, but willingly I leave the Medicine to recom 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 VWc ! table only. I am respectfully, yours,&c. W. HUMPHREYS. Jk.. Druggist, Corner Bay and Dray ton-streets, Savannah. SOUTH CAROLINA. PLA NTERS of this noble State, J ask you to give the above Medicine one and a fair trial, and you will find it to excel ail the humbugs of the I North.
