Georgia Historic Newspapers

    THE GEORGIA PLATFORM,
Is published every Thursday morning, except two in the year, at §2
per annum, payable strictly in advance, $2 50 if not paid within six
months, $3 00 at the end of the year.
No paper .discontinued till all arrearages are paid.
It is devoted to A he maintenance of the principles of civil and religious liberty; for
the first time openly attacked since the foundation of the government, and to the pre
servation of the Constitution intact.
It is uncompromisingly opposed to the political organization commonly called Know
Nothing Order, having no sympathy with their secrecy, their oaths, their unconstitu
tial designs, their religious intolerance, their political proscription and their abolition
allies at the North.
It insists upon an unalterable determination on the part of the South, to maintain in
its letter and spirit, the 4th Resolution of the Georgia Convention of 1850, as forming
the only true basis upon which the South can unite, and avert the wild crusade of
abolitionism against the Constitution and the rights of the South.
The “Platform” will contain a full detail of both the Foreign and internal news of the
day. In fact, we intend to make it a welcomed visitant, both the counting-room and
fireside. Vtf. V. WESTER, Editor
Calhoun, Ga., 1857.

IN issuing the Prospectus of the Twenty-
Fourth and Twenty-Fifth Volumes of

GER, commencing with the January No.,
the Proprietors beg to assure the public that
no extions will be remitted on their'part to
maintain the high character of the work,
and challenge the patronage of all who val
ue sterling literary merit. For Twenty
one Years the Messenger has endeavored
to reflect faithfully the Southern mind,
white disdaining all narrow and sectional
views, and has been alone among the month
ly periodicals ff America in defence of the
Peculiar institutions of the South
ern Statez.
To this office it will still be devoted, and
will be prompt to repel assaults upon the
South, whether they come under the spe
cious garb of fiction, or m the direct form
of anti-slavery pamphlets At this critical
Juncture, while our enemies are employing
literature as their most potent weapons of
attack, the Southern people will surely not
withhold their encouragement from a woTk
whose aim it shall bo to strike blows in
their defence.
The MESSENGER will, as heretofore,
present its readers with Reviews, Histori
cal and Biographical Sketches, Novels,
Tales, Travels, Essays, Poems, Critiques,
and Papers on the Army, Navy, and other
National Subjects.
With a, view to ensure a larger circula
tion of the MESSENGER, tbe Proprietors,
though they intend greatly increasing the
size of the work, have reduced the Price of
Subscription, wlrch is now only
Til it EE DOLLARS PER ANNUM, IN AD
VANCE,

The Editorial and Critical department of
the Messenger will continue under the

And will embrace copious notes on current
literature and reviews of all new American
or Foreign w r orks of general interest and
value. The Editor’s opinions will be al
ways fearlessly and l. mestly avowed.

OF THE
Louisville
Mil ISM
£N the midst of the proscription an i per
secution of Know Nothingisin, wo is
sued a Circular Prospectus, and directed it
to many points West and South, where,
perhaps, up to that time, our paper lr and
uot been seen.
In response tc our appeal, thousand of
staunch Democrats rushed to our standard,
and we can now boast of
A circulation far exceeding that of any oth
er paper in the Democratic
Party South!
It is here in Louisville that the blighting
effects of Know Nothingism have been m st
severely felt, and it is here that its chief
organ is established. To combat its influ
ence, and to keep the Democracy luily ad
vised of the foul machinations radiating
from this common center, shall not. only
be our duty, but a pleasurable task- so
long as a necessity exists therefor.
Os the futilro character of the “Demo
crat,’ we are willing tbe public shall judge
by tiie p st—premising only, that in sev
eral respects it will be materially improv
ed.
The various Editions of the Louisville Dem
ocrat are now issued ns new and beau
tiful Type, a size larger than here
tofore used in their publication,
In addition, the different departments of
cur Weekly will be kept up much more
complete; as the all-engr >ssing political
questions h ive'now been referred to our
gallant standard bearers for the next four
years.
In the Agricultural Department of our
Weeklies, v, r e shall have the assistance of
one who enjoys many years’ experience in
conducting this all-important branch.
We shall devote considerable space to in
teresting and wholesome Literature, Poe
try and Romance, seeking ( nly the contri
butions of the first authors, and culling
from the best sources presented in the wide
range of English and American Periodicals,
stories f deep interest for republication in
our columns, especially for fire-side edifi
cation
The Commercial reputation of the Demo
crat is thoroughly established,
And presents a truthiul condition of the
Home. Domestic and Foreign Markets in
each succeeding issue. The greatest care
is observed in making our report of the
Home Markets, particularly; and the pub
lic ha - , e long regarded them as the most
reliable in the West,

system giving that tone and energy so in
dispensable for the restoration of health.—
To be able to state confidently that Con
sumption is curable by inhalation, is to me
a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is as
much under the control of medical treat
ment as any other formidable disease;
ninety out of every hundred cases can be
cured in the first stages, and fifty per cent
in the second ; but in the third stage it is
impossible to save more than five per cent
for the Lungs are so cut up by the disease
as to bid defiance to medical skill. Even,
however, in the last stages, Inhalation af
fords extraordinary relief to the suffering
attending this fearful scourge, which annu
ally destroys niuery-five thousand persons
in the United States alone; and a correct
calculation shows that of ♦he present popu
lation of the earth, eighty millions are des
tined to fill the consumptive’s grave.
Truly the quiver of death has no arrow
so fatal as Oonsumf tiou In ill ages it has
been the great enemy of life, for it spares
ueither age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the
brave, the beautiful, the graceful, and the
gifted. By the help of that Su reme Be
ing from whom co eth evert good and per
feet gilt, I am enabled to otter to the afflic
ted a perma ent and speedy cure iu Con
sumption. The first cause of tubercles is
from impure blood, and the immediate ef
fect produced by heir deposition in the
lungs is to prevent the free admission ol
air into the air cells, which causes a weak
ei.ed vitality through the entire system.—
Then surely it is more rational to expect
greater good from medicines e tering the
cavities of the lungs than from tho-e admin
istered through the stomach ; the patient
will always fine, the lungs free and the
breathing easy, after inhaling remedies
Thus, local rem Gy, never
theless it acts constitutionally, and with
| more power and ertainty tnan remedies
j administered by the stomach To prove
the powerful and direct influence of this
mode of administration, chloroform inhaled
will entirely destroy sensibility in n few
minutes, paralyzing the entire nervous sys
tem. so that a limb may he amputated with
out the slightest pain ; inhaling the ordi
nary burning gas will destroy life iu a few
hours
The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the
system when fainting or apparently dead-
The odor of many of the met! cines is per
ceptible iu the skin a few minutes after be
ing inhaled, and may be immediately de
tected in the blood. A convincing proof of
the constitutional effects of inhalation, is
the fact that sickness is always produced
by breathing foul air—is this not positive
evidence that proper remedies, carefully
prepared and judiciously administered
through the lungs should produce the hap
piest results ? During eighteen years prac -
tice many thousands, suffering from dis
eases of the lungs and throat, have been
under my care, and 1 have effected many
remarkable cures, even after ilie sufferers
had been pr< nounced in the last stages,
which fully satisfies me that cor sumption
is no longer a fatal disease. My treatment
of consumption is original, and founded on
long experience and a thorough investiga
tion. My perfect acquaintance with the
nature of tubercles, .vc . enables me to d:s
