Bnaiwick *md Florida F allroad—Stale
Aid Development of Somtfcern Georgia.
Mr. Editor:—It is troll known that the
annual meeting of the Stockholders of the
Rrunswick and Florida Railroad Company,
was held in the city of Brunswick^ on the
3d inst. The report of the proceedings has
been published in several of our newspa
pers, and has attracted considerable notice
throughout the State. The interest which
our citizens generally manifested in this en
terprise, is commensurate with its vast im
portance ; it being conceded on all sides
that there is no work now contemplated
within our borders, which, when finished,
will be fraught with more beneficial results.
Hence its speedy completion is justly looked
upon as “a consummation devoutly to be
prayed for."
But apart from its intrinsic merits, this
road, in common with others, commands no
little attention, from the fact of its involv
ing the great question of State aid to works
of Internal Improvement. This subject
has, for a long time, agitated the public
mind, and no doubt it will be hrought pro-

He thrust his hand into a hollow stump to
extract a rabbit, that had fallen in the stump,
he felt a slight pain as from the scratch of i
a pin on the back of his hand, and upon

Athens. September 23
Dear Sir:—I received seveial dayH since, your far
, asking my opinion of the Medical merits of the Cali, ° r '
I Pills. Ailow me to premise, that for the las; , Pn
i I have been tortured in body and mind, bv the li™"
; Indigestion. I v.-as endowed by nature with an sdmi®
i able constitution, and my formidable rualadv has p
! superinduced by a costive habit, brought on by too oL
| confinement and want of regular exercise. ,\ej, r p
j ing sufficient leisure to starve out disease, even if 1?I
! possible to do so. which 1 very much doubt, I have r
i the rounds of all the most approved cures and allevL 1
| tives. T have tried in their turn—Lee's, Peters-
j Brandreth's, Cook’s, Hill's. Spencer's Smith's snd rn!'
ny other Patent Pills and Dyspepsia Drugs, which hat
come within my reach, and contrary to the com rao uiv
expressed opinion. I mus* bear my humble testimony it
favor of the virtue of each and all of these Nostrum.
I am by a Box of Pills, as by a Book which is not or
a vicious tendency. I never bought either, which
did not think fully worth the money which it cost. 1
It is only necessary to add, which I do most cheerfu,
liy—not only through kiudnes.-tu you, bnt to the r , u ^
lie also, especially that portion of it who know, h*
experience, what "is meant by the Vulture-like gnawin.
at*tne pit of the stomach, bitter taste in the mou*r;
flatulence, a-cidity. distension of the stomach, coast'
pated bowele. cold feet and acute pain in the heal;
back and vicinity of the heart—to all such, I can cor
dially recommend tho Calhoun Pills. The efficacy ,-
this Remedical Agent, I tested Tor the first time, do!
ring my recent sojourn with you, and have used it fre
quently since, and uave found, experimentally, tha-
subserves in my case a most excellent purpose, parti-.i"
larlyin Its effects upon the Liver, the sympathy bet-re,',
which and the stomach is too intimate to require eon

that it is your purpose to disseminate the improved tv.
houn Pills more generally than you have heretofore done
have occasionally, when sojourning at your house
them when indisposed, and having found them so mild*
yet so efficacious in cases of derangement of the digestive
organs, I most cheerfully commend them andtheirusep
the public, and especially to gentlemen having largefaa-
ilios, as a most excellent preventive of fixed and perma

“Da. E. N. Calhoun— Dear Sir : I am gratified to learn
that vou have come to the conclusion to create Agencio
for tho Calhoun Pills in different parts of the country-
is it no less an act of justice to yourself than to the
world at large. Since the year 184fi, I have been in the
habit, of using your Pills individually, and as a Familk
Medicine. Observation and experience prove it an invni.
nable specific for nearly- allirregualritie of tile Digestive
Apparatus, performing its office with little or do pain or
nausea ; it leaves the patient with a good appetite, m-
creased strength and greatly improved and elevated spin
its—properly use.i, it will cure Dy spepsia and expel ail of
ltsgloomy concomitants. In Chills and Fevers, and even
Bilious Fevers, i have found it equally efficient.
Trusting that you may find the world as readytocom.

De. E. X. Calhoun'—Dear Sir. M'liiU- at Decatur, 1
had as I consider, a fair opportunity of testing the Cal
houn I'llls, prepared by yourself, and I am so much
plesed with their action upon the Liver, and as a means
of breaking up Bilious predisposition, that I hope a, you
are now preparing to offer them to the public, that you
w-ill create an Agency at Starkville, that may be ena
bled at any time to procure them. I expect to use them
with white and black in all cases threatening attacksofa
Biilous character. I would be gratified, not only on your
own account, but also for the benefit of the public at
large, that you would place them in the reach of every
per-on. for 1 feel confident that there has not yet been
offered to ihe public any preparation of Medicine that will
compete with your rills as a general Family Medicine, cr
a traveling companion.
Very sincerely your friend, &c., JOHM TT. I'Ox'K.

the use ofyonr (Calhoun) Tills, administered according

CHEAPEST BOOK EVER PUB
LISIIED. and containing nearly
double the quantity of reading
matter in that of the
Fifty cents or Dollar Publica
tions.
It treats on the PHYSIOLOGY
OF MARRIAGE, and the secret
infirmities and disorders of
youth and maturity, resulting
from excesses which destroy
the physical and mental powers
all diseases arising from indis
cretion, with plain and simple rules by which all per
sons can cure themselves without mercury, with the
author’s observations on marriage, its duties and dis
qualifications, and their remedies: with colored litho
graphs, illustrating tlie anatomy and physiology, and
diseases of the reproductive organs of both sexes, their
structures, uses and functions. It contains many im
portant hints to those contemplating matrimony
which will overcome objections against marriage;—
none, however, should take this important step with
out first consulting its pages. It treats of all diseases
of females, whether married or single. Hints to those
who desire no more children. Strangers who require
medical aid, before consulting any doctor, ought to
know whether their cases are properly understood by
those whom they employ, and thus guard against the
imposition of quackery,*so prevalent in populous cities
Hence the advantage of a popular knowledge of one--
self, such as is given in this work.
If medical Ruthorism be the test of talent, and en
lightenment be sought from books, lot common sense
discriminate between truthful simplicity and outrage
ous speciousness and bombast. I’r. La Croix is a legal
ly-qualified physician, and for the last twenty years
has been daily consulted upon tho different diseases up
on which liis book treats, personally as well as by let
ter. Any person sending twenty five cents in a letter,

TS a meuiciue that commends itself to heads of fund
\ lies and females in all conditions. Unlike most of
tho nostrums for the cure of all diseases, which are
forced upon tli* notice and credulity of the suffering,
this is a female remedy exclusively ; nnd one that car
be relied on for the cure and relief of most of the com
plaints peculiar to f _*males. It is well known to Physi
cians that much of their suffering and ill-health may
he traced to irregularity in their peculiar ‘•ensons. and

menstruation, (and consequent sterility.) .-.nd for the
immediate relief of sypathetic nervous affection',
sleepiness, anxiety, hysteria, &c. It is perfectly safe
