I. WILLIAM KVA NS' MEDICINES,
nposed of vegetable substances, which exert
action upon the heart, give an impulse or
jßrength to the arterial system ; the blood is quick
uicd and equalized in its circulation through all the
vessels, whether of the skin, the parts situated in
crnally, or the extremities; and as all the seere
ions of the body are drawn from the blood, there
&.aconsequent increase of every secretion, and a
juickcncd action of the absorbent and exhalent, or
lltcharging vessels. Any morbid action which
may have taken place is corrected, all obstructions
ire removed, the blood is purified, and the body rej
mmes a healthful state.
These medicines after much anxious toil and rc
warch, having been brought by the proprietor to
the present state of perfection, supersede the use of
the innumerable other medicines ; and are so well
adapted to the frame, that the use of them, by main
taining the body' in the due performance of its
.Unctions, and preserving the vital stream in a puro
»nd Healthy state,causes it to last many years long
erthan it otherwise would, and the mind to be
come so composed and tranquil, that old age when
it arrives will appear a blessing, and not (as too
many who have neglected their constitutions, or
had them injured by medicines administered by ig
‘norance) a source of misery and abhorrence.
They are so compounded, that by strengthening
and equalizing the action of the heart, liver, and
other visera, they expel the bad, acrid or morbid
matter, which renders the blood impure, out of the
circulation, through the excretory ducts into the
passage of the bowels, so that by the brisk or slight
evacuations which may be regulated by the doses,
always remembering that while the evacuations
from the bowels arc kept up. the excretions from all
the other portions of the body will also be going
on in the same proportion, by which means the
blood invariably becomes purified.
Steady perseverance in the use of the medicine
will undoubtedly clfcct a cure even in the most
acute or obstinate diseases; but in such cases the
dose may beaugmented,according tothe inveteracy
of the disease ; the medicines being so admirably
J adapted to the constitution, that they may be taken
I at all times.
In all cases of hypochondriacism, low spirits,pal
pitations of the heart, nervous irritability, nervous
weakness, lluor albus, seminal weakness, indiges
tion, loss of appetite, flatulency, heartburn, general
debility, bodily weakness, chlorosis or green sick
ness, flatulent or hysterical Paintings, hysterics,
headache, hiccup, sea sickness, night-mare, gout
rheumatism, asthma, tic doulorcaux, cramp, spas
modic affections, and those who are victims to that
I most excrutiating disorder, Gout, will find relief
from their sutlerings, by a course of Dr. William
Evans’s Pills.
Nausea, vomiting, pains in the side, limbs, head,
stomach or back, dimness or confusion of sight,
noises in the inside, alternate flushings of heat and
chilliness, tremors, watchings, agitation, anxiety
bad dreams, spasms, will in every case be relieved
by an occasional dose of Dr. Evans’s medicines.
One of the most dangerous epochs to females is
at the change of life; and it is then they require a

in the head, invigorate the mind, strengthen the
body, improve the memory, and eliven the imagin

, When the nervous system has been too largely
drawn upon or overstrained, nothing is better to
correct and invigorate the drooping constitution
than these medicines.

vor Children Cutting their TeJTth.
This infallible remedy has preserved hundreds of
children, when thought past recovery, from con

gums, the child will recover. This preparation is
so innocent, so efficacious, and so pleasant that no
child will refuse to let its gums be rubbed with it.
When infants are at the age of four mouths,though
there is no appearance of teeth, one bottle of the
Syrup should be used on fie gums to open the
pores. Parents should neverbe without the Syrup
in the nursery where there arc youngchildren j for

THE SOUTHERN PIONEER:
Devoted to the Literature, Institutions and Amuse
ments of the South.
Browne, Cushnev & McCaffebty, Publishers.
Ciiaiu.es Wyatt Rice, Editor.
The South is the natural home of Literature.
She has ever been so. Homer strolled and sunt
under the rays of the served sun; Italy and (.recce
have, from their first wakening into being as civil
ized nations, afforded their Poets and Orators.—
The Literary pilgrim ever bonds his step to the
South of Europe, as his most favored shrine; while
there, (ond memories throng to his mini, of the
epic strains of Homer, the soothing measures of the
Mantuan Swan, the exuding odes of Horace, and
the biting sarcasms of Juvenal. While in later
times reelings to the memory of the fearful strains
of Dante, the epic measures of the madman Tasso,
the soft strains of Petrarch, and the pleasing ima
ges of Hoccacio. And while thus fondly recalling
to memory all these, he remembers that they drew
their inspiration from the fervid sun of Italy and
Greece. He feels in the balmy air he breathes, in i
the brilliant heavens that form the canopy above
him, in the brilliancy of the sunset that glow in
the horizon, and in the tints that the air and clime
spread over the earth, the inspiration that formed
and developed the genius of those whom he now
so fondly regrets.
Such food for inspiration does the Literary pil
grim find on the classic shores of Italy and Greece,
and underthe fervid sun of the South. And is it ’
possible that a kindred clime in the Western Hem- .
isphere presents no parallel to this ? Do the same
sun, the same brilliancy of the canopy of the clouds,
the same glorious sunsets, the same rich tints upon >
the landscape, afford no inspiration here > A i
wilder, a moreabrupt scenery than Italy or Greece
can boast, speak in living tones to their beholders. I
While with these an Italian softness of landscape
upon the Ashley, the Savannah, and other favorite
streams, glorious waterfalls and streaming cas
cades, are every where claiming their worship
pers in those who dwell among them. And do all
these alford no inspiration > They do inspire;
they have spoken in the eloquent (ones of the
Rutledge and Pinckneys of the Revolution;
they have spoken in the polished pages of a
Gbimke; they are now speaking in the strains of
a Charlton, a Gilman, Wii.de, Simms, Meek, ,
Butt, Pendleton, Ticknor, Wittick, in the faith- 4
rul scenes of a Loncstreet, and in the vivid /
sketches of a Strong, Ware, Morrow and Mo- |J
raune. Aye, more, they are speaking in the ;j
thousand of the young, who cast back to the maun- I
tains, the waterfalls and the streams, their inspira- 9
tion in living tones, and whose wild songs through I
rare publications, sometimes startle the public ear. 8
They do speak in these thousand v ho with a pro- It
per medium for communicating their thoughts to
the public, would electrify the world by their clo- jj
(juent tones. Nor docs the South lack for inspira- V
tion in her historic incidents. A brief reference in
the mind of each individual to the striking inci
dents in the early history of each of the Southern
States, will convince him that they afford rich ma
terials from which the ready pen may' draw for |
amusement and instruction. But more than all |
these do the leisure and opportunities for mental
cultivation that her domestic institutions afford her
citizens, present strong grounds of belief that the
South is destined to become the centre of Literary
interest. As this leisure and this opportunity for
mental cultivation find no parallel in any other
country, it is natural to believe that the South is
destined to become to tbe world in a new era what
Greece was to the world in the old.
This is our profession of faith. We believe, in
a word, that no part of tbe world has greater liter
ary resources within herself, or is better calculated
from her natural scenery, the peculiarities of her
climate, the leisure of her citizens, and her generr
al advantages, to become an eminently literary 1
community than the Southern States of this cone
fedcracy. This is the platform on which we inlr
tend to raise a Weekly Journal, to which SoutherJ
writers shall delight to contribute, and which thdf
•r ‘"'•o South shall be proud to claim as its own.-l
■■lEß*Me.most firmly that success will crown oik r
exertions, no effort will be spared to draw frot#.<
every portion of the South, contributions upon ev -
ery subject, which, while they shall be of a higjh
character, shal 1 ever range
‘ From grave to gay, from lively to severe,’
We believe that the institutions of the South are
founded in the immutable laws of the God of Na
ture. We believe that on them will be built a
fabric of glory and greatness to the South. We be
lieve especially that they afford to the Southern
States the means of out-stripping the rest of the
world in their literary career. And we know that
these are times of peculiar danger to these institu
tions ; we know that they arc now attacked by the
insidious foe as well as by the open enemy. We
shall therefore place our Journal as a sentinel on
the watchtower of Southern institutions, ever
watchful for attacks, ami ever ready to repel them.
We delight in the amusements and holiday s of
the South. We glory in them as fit amusements
for a people generous and brave, quick in their im
pulses,and shunning sluggishness. We delight in
the gun and chase. We hail merry old Christmas
and its cheerful sports as old friends and true, set
ting the brow free from care, making the bosoms
of men to glow with cheerful and friendly emotions,
calling friends to the festive board and to the ex
change of kind thoughts and sentiments, and send
ing all away to run in joyfulncss their course of
duty until the invitations to joy and mirth are
again renewed. The pages of the Pioneer will,
therefore, be enlivened with lively chronicles of
exploits in the sports of the field, and with spirited
sketches of the fun and frolic that merry old Christ
mas lets loose upon us. We will also, in order to
please all, give a weekly abstract of the most im
portant news of the day. And fur the fair practi
ses upon tbe Piano or Guitar, shall occasionally
embellish our pages with original and selected
Music.
It is a fortunate circumstance for the interest of
a work of thisniturc, that the field of Literature
at the South is, as yet, comparatively untrodden.
The Literary resources of the South, great as they
arc acknowledged to be, are as yet comparatively
undeveloped. Every grove, river, dale and moun
tain, lias yet its talc to tell. Wc therefore send
our Journal fortli as a Pioneer to gather the riches
of tliis new country. From every hill, dale, river
and mountain, lie will return laden with rich iHtores.
These stores, original and varied in their character,
as they must be, he will be proud to display for the
amusement and instruction of his readers. We
ask for him a kind reception at the hands of all
friends of the cause in which he has emharkel.
Having thus detailed the plan of our future oper
ations, we commend our hehdomedal to (we trust,)
flic favorable notice of the Southern public Wc;
devote ourselves to the work, as our profession.—
On the verge of manhood, and of a liberal educa
tion, we had a profession to choose; after mature
deliberation wc have chosen this, because we de
light in the employment, and arc devoted to the
cause for the furtherance of which the work is es
tablished. No common obstacle, therefore, will
turn us aside from our course. But having chosen
the editing of the Pioneer, and through it the pro
motion of Southern literature, as the work of our
life, we shall relinquish it {only with our breath
The public may therefore depend on having a per
manent work. And white we commend our sheet
to the favor of the public generally, we commend
it particularly to the kind charities of that band
who have linked themselves together for the ad
vancement of the cause to which wc devote the
work. They have acted with us in the past; wc
trust they will act with us in the future. No ex
ertions will be spared to make the work such an
one as they will look upon with delight.
It may be well to add that the intervening time
between this date and the day of publication will
be spent in collecting materials for the work.
The Pioneer will be printed on an Imperial
sheet, in quarto form, and will contain a greater
quantity of »ading matter than any work of the
kind pubiisned at the South.

(GEORGIA LIME WORKS.
THE subscribers respectfully inform the public
that they have commenced the manufactory of
LIME near Jacksonborough.in Scriven county,Ga.
They have extensive quarries of Limestone, which
is considered by professor J. R. Lotting, State Geol
ogist, to whom the proprietors arc indebted for the
information which induced them to embark in the
undertaking, to be of the very purest kind. They
have consequently erected large and substantial
Kilns in the most approved manner, and procured
men from the North who are perfectly acquainted
with the business. A portion of the Lime is new in
marxet and has been pronounced by the principal
builders in Hie neighbnrjrood of Augusta,and others,
to he of cxecllcut qu-jdVty. The subscribers take
pleasure in inviting those who take an interest in
the dcvclopcmcntofthe internal resources of Geor
gia, to examine it, being convinced that the whole
United States cannot produce amore beautiful arti
cle.
They have now a quantity on hand, which thev
will deliver at the mouth of Brier Creek on tne Sa
vannah river, or at Augusta. Having extensive
preparations in progress, they expect to be able du
ring the next winter and spring to supply orders to a
very large amount ; and they have every reason to
believe that they will entitle themselves to the favor
and patronage of the public by prodtfeing a cheaper
and better article at home than can ke found
abroad.
