Times and Planter.] A 4>reat Phyeiciu. We plwayp tied maoh to write about after a visit to the beaaiifnl &od inter* eating city of Augusta ; and with the belief that we are conferring a favor upon a large class of our readers, we propose to say a few words about the visit of the distinguished physician, Dr W. P. Conßaughton, to that city. See ing much in the papers, and hearing mneb on the streets about his successful treatment of many cases that bad here tofore defied the Bkill of the profession, we resolved to give the Doctor a call. We found him occupying splendid apartments at the Globe Hotel. Al though our visit was early in the day we fouDd a number of intelligent looking people awaiting the doctor’s hour for consultation. After seeing numerous certificates from gentlemen whom we have known for years to be every way reliable and trustworthy, wa were prepared to be lieve Dr Connaughton a gentleman of extraordinary skill in the science of medicine. His medicines are no mys terious compounds of questionable make-np. He simply diagnoses a case —his experience tells him at once where the trouble is, and he prescribes a course of treatment —most generally the pre scriptions being put up by one of the most reliable druggists in Augusta. He does not undertake the treatment of every case presented to him ; but if he finds, after thorough examination, that a case is incurable in his opinion, be frankly tells the patient this fact. Dr. Connaughton does not come to Georgia- with only a parade of certifi cates from foreign States ; bnt he has practiced in our State long enough to give the most undoubted home evidence of his skill. Long years of experience in the newspaper business have taught us that it is to the publisher’s interest to protect its readers against humbugs. Hence we were determined to satisfy our own mind as to the genuineness of Dr. Connaughton’s claims and his standing sr a business man. It was only after this bad been done that we consented to insert the advertising sup plement accompanying this paper. It is a notable fact that as a general rule the names used by Dr. Connaugton are those of gentlemen well known to large communities and to entire States. Such names could not be wrongfully used for years ; so that, in this line, and after bis manner of dealing, the practice of humbuggery upon the peo ple would be impossible. The doctor has effected some really wonderful cures in our own State ; and is supported in his claims by so many “ living wit nesses,” that we feel perfectly safe in commending him to the afflicted of this section. | From the Washington ( (la.) Gazette) We publish an extraot to-day from the Augusta Chronicle and Constitu tionalist concerning the oelebrated physician, Dr. Connaughton, who has been in that city for some time. He has a large number of testimonials fhom those whom he Las healed by bis Bkill. His patients are scattered over the en tire State, for his fame has spread ra pidly, anil he is consulted by people from all sections. We call the atteatien of our readers to the extraot in another columu. [from the Louisville ( Ga .) News anil Farmer.] DR. CONNAUGHTON. In this week’s issue of our paper will be seen advertising locals of Dr. Con naugtiton. He is stopping at the Globe Hotel, and seems to be in full confidence with those in Augusta who have had the pleasure of meeting or doing busi ness with him. We have met him per sonally, and fiid him to be a polished and agreeable gentleman. Judging from recommendations and cartilicates, that appear in his oircular, that we know are not humbugs, because from parties that are in every way re sponsible (for instance, Marschalk, of the Ex-press and Standard, whom we know personally, and who is one of the oldest newspaper meu in the State), we would say at once, that he certainly has mastered some of the difficult medical sciences that but few physicians are fa miliar with. He treats what is known as Cross Eyes, Ulcers and Abcesses by snrgical operations. He told us that he would not take a case of any kind, wheth er to be treated by medicine or surgery, that he did not feel perfectfnlly satisfied he oould cure, after examination. His reason was a business, as well as a sensi ble one. For instance, an invalid comes to him, he takes his money, prescribes for and cures him. He is grateful and noises abroad what has been done for him. On the other band,if he takes the money of a person that he cannot hope to, and does not cure, why he not only cheats the person, but does liis own bu siness an injury. He told us of a woman who came to him with cancer, who had sold her cow, and other things, and offered him $125 to treat her, but he told her it was do use, and he did not want her money. It was at a stage past snceessful treat ment. If you are suffering from stubborn diseases or disfigurements, it would be well for you to call on Dr. Connaugh ton. We are satisfied he will be honest with you. f From the MeDuffie (Ga.) Journal ] DR. P. W. CONNAUGHTON. This celebrated physician, whose reputation for the successful treatment of ohronio and other diseases is not only co extensive with the limits of the United States, but is known in Europe, has taken rooms at the Globe Hotel, in Augusta, where he can be consulted un til May 10th, on all the ailments of the human system. We have met the Dr. and found him to beau agreeable gen tleman ; and, from the evidence pro duced relative to marvellous cures ef fected by his skill in different sections of the country, we at once concluded that be was master of medical science. He deals frankly with all applicants for treatment, aud will sot take a case of any kind unless there is a well-grounded hope of giving relief. See press notices and testimonials in another column. DR. P. W. COSXAOOHTON. [From the Warrenton(Ga.) Clipper.] In Augusta, the other day, we called on the above named gentleman, who is now stopping at the Globe Hotel, where he will remain until the 10th of May. We found him to be a courteous gentle men, and if one may believe the mass of testimony which he has in his posses sion, he is a most remarkable physician. To some of these which appear in an other column we invite the reader's at tention. To do the gentleman justice, while as a rule we have little or no con fidence in traveling practitioners of any kind, it is but fair to say he has some most flattering testimonials from a large number of people, some of whom are personally known to us. The Doctor’s circulars will be found enfolded in this issue of the Clipper, which,having read, our friends who may be afflicted must judge and act for themselves. Voice of the South Carolina Press. [From the Edgefield (S. C.) Advertiser.] This week we send out a supplement which is a compendium of attestations concerning the wonderful skill and un disputed success of Dr. Connaughton. While in Augusta ten days back we had a personal interview with Dr. Connaugh ton, whom we found to be a quick, in telligent, original man. If there are among our people any so unfortunate as to need his services—and of course there are—we have no doubt they might con sult him with very sure hopes of speedy and permanent benefit. DR. P. W. COXNACGHTON. {Barnwell (5. C.) Sentinel] The attention of our numerous readers, and more especially the afflicted, is asked to the various testimonials and press no- I tices in another column, of this learned Doctor. He is not only known to the people of the United States, bnt in ; Europe; and his skill as a surgeon is, to say the least, miraculous. To the af flicted we feel, from what we have seen, do hesitancy in recommending him, and they would do well to call on him before the 10th of May—his stay being limited to that time. He deals frankly with those who may have occasion to require his services, and in no instance will he take a case unless there is a well ground ed hops of the patient's recovery. Bead carefully also the supplement we rend out this week, and avail yourselves of the opportunity offered for relief. The Doctor has taken rooms at the Globe Hotel, Augusta, Ga., where he may be consulted. MY GEORGIA AND SOUTH CARO LINA PATIENTS SPEAK OUT.

CANCER 18 CURABLE—REFER ENCES-MY PATIENTS —A DIS TINGUISHED LADY CURED OF CANCER BY DR. CONNAUGHTON. Atlanta, Ga., January 6th, 1870. During the last nineteen years I have been tormented almost beyond human endurance with a Cancer in my right breast. T have tried in vain many cures, and had spent many thousand dollars, and was finally given up by all the doc tors in the South as hopeless, and was suffering the pains of dea’h daily; in this condition I persuaded Dr. Con naughton to do what he could for me. After using his mild vegetable remedies four week, my health was better and he had removed the Cancer. He has taken me from the very brink of the grave. It is now four year since I placed myself in care of this great physician, and it is three years and a half Bince I have felt or seen anything of the Cancer which had tormented me day and night for nineteen years. I am cured aud Dr. Connaughton did it. Money and words can never recompense such skill. MRS. MARY PRICE, Wife of Col. Price, Atlanta, Ga.

Dr. Connaughton —Dear Sir: When I first employed your skill I was indeed a sufferer with all those ills that follow the violation of those laws of our existence, the abuse of which leave their terrible tale too plainly told. My memory was impaired, my body was nearly ruined; I had a gone, languid feeliDg, nervous de bility, irregular, starting and wasting dreams, weakness of the back, floating scales before the eyes, sometimes like webs; forgetfulness, inability to conoen t ate my mind, awful forebodings, de sire to avoid company, dull, heavy feel ings. I was wasting away and despon dent. I have been using your wonder ful remedies for three mouths, aud have regained my former vitality and vigor. My body and my mind are improved; I am indeed anew being, with nearly all my former vigorous mind and body.

Its basis, the essential principle of sound rye, is the best possible agent for hastening the action of the botanic ingredients which it holds in solution, and those ingredi ents are the most efficacious which chemistry extracts from the vegetable kingdom, and medical science applies to the cure of disease. mh2s-d6&wl LEGAL CAP PAPER For sale at this Office. tf DRAFT AND NOTE BOOKS For sale at this Office. tf DR. SCHENCK'S STANDARD REME DIES. The standard remedies for all diseases of the lungs are Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Sehenck’s Sea Weed Tonic, and Schenck’s Mandrake Pills, and if taken before the lungs are destroyed a speedy cure is effected. To these three medicines Dr. J. H, Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his un rivalled success in the treatment of pul monary diseases. The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the mor bid matter in the lungs ; nature throws it off by an easy expectoration, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a slight cough will throw it off, the patient has rest and the lungs begin to heal. To enable the pulmonic syrup to do this, Schenck’s Mandrake Pills and Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic must be free ly used to cleanse the s'.omach and liver. Schenck’s Mandrake Pills act ou the liver, removing all obstructions, relax the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved. Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle stimulant and alterative ; the alkali of which it is composed mixes with the food and prevents souring. It assists the digestion by toning up the stomaoh to a healthy condition, so that the food and the Pulmonic Syrup will make good blood ; then the iuDgs heal, and the pa tient will surely get well if care is taken to prevent fresh cold. All who wish to consult Dr. Schenck, either personally or by letter, can do so at his principal office, corner of Sixth and Arch streets, Philadelphia, every Monday. Schenck’s medicines are sold by all druggists throughout the country. mhl-thsaJttulm J. H.
