The Public
IS most respectfully solicited by the Subscriber to
an invaluable preparation.
DR RELFE'S BOTANICAL DROPS!
Are every year increasing their long established
reputation. They have outlived many rival prepa
rations, and are continually gaining upon public con
fidence.
They have been successfully administered forma
ts y years, as a remedy for ?
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St. Anthony's
Fire, Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foul
and obstinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald
Head, and Venereal Taint ; and are also successfully
used in cases of violent eruptions after the Measles,
Red Blotches, Pimples on the Face, Festering Erup
tions on the skin, and other diseases of the external
surface, and are one of the best Spring and Autumn
Physics known, to free the system from humors.
A Physician of eminence who had witnessed the
efficacy of this article, had the candor recently to
acknowledge to the proprietor, that he considered it
the best medicine known, for the complaints for
which it is intended, and that it ought deservedly to
stand at the head of the whole class of such reme
dies.
Price one dollar a bottle, or six bottles for five dol
lars.
TEETH! GUMS!
Those who would retain or restore these desirable
personal advantages, are assured that no composition
can be obtained superior to the
British Antiseptic Dentrifice,
wkieh is exempt from acid and other deleterious in
gredients, which too frequently enter the composi
tion of tooth powders in common use, and whitens
the enamel ol tlie teeth, without doing it the least
injury. Its application also braces and strengthens
the gums, secures to them their healthy and florid
hue, and, by removing all d iscolo rations and offen
sive foreign accumulations from the teeth, preserves
the natural sweetnees of the- breath.
Price 50 cents.
%*None genuine, unless signed on the outside

AT THE LIMESTONE SPRINGS.
THE Subscriber will, on Monday the 9th of
January next. open a boarding school at the
Limestone Springs in Spartanburg- At this insti
tution, it i* intended to embrace a more extensive
coursc of studies, than has heretofore been taught
in Academies in this State. It is a lamentable, yet
a well known fact, that in Grammar Schools our
hoys ?rp drilled long and laboriously in the acquisi
sition of Ihe Greek anu Lf"" languages, to the utter
neglect of their mother ton?t?C, *9 we"
Science, Mathematics, History, &c. 01 tne
who are taught in Academies, not ^nore than one
fourth ever expect to receive a Collegiate education ;
yet the course of studies is precisely the same for
those who do not, as for those who do intend to en
ter College. The subscriber proposes, in .our sqhool
at least, to remedy this evil, and to adapt the edu
cation of his pupils to their views in after-life.
While he will not neglect the preparation of young
gentlemen for College, (the best security for which
is the uniform success which has attended the appli
cation of his scholars for admission there) he will in
i the instruction of others pay more especial attention
to History, Natural History, Book-keeping, the mow
practically useful parts of Mathematics as fully and
extensively as is now taught in our College, and to
Elocution, by. which is meant, not simply Oratory or
Declamation , but especially good reading , which is
so essential to every man as well as scholar. The
healthfulnesss of the location, and its remoteness
frwm all temptations to. vice or immorality of any
kind combine advantage? presented by few, perhaps
no institution in the State.
The scholastic year will be divided into two
equal sessions, commencing on the 1st of January
and ending on the 1st of Nov. The terms per
session will be 100 dollars, payable in advance, in
eluding all the charges for ooard and tuition.
The termsfor day scholars will be 17 50-100 dol
lars p? r session, payable in advance. Books, Sta
tionary, &c. will be supplied to those, who desire it,
at the Columbia prices. Pupils will be received
at any period of the session and charged according
ly ; but no deduction will be made to those who
leave before the end of a session.
Passage can be had in the Spartanburg Stage
from Columbia, to the Springs,
All letters of application must be directed fo the
subscriber at Columbia, until the New Year ? after
that time, at the Springs.
