EDGEFIELD COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE FOR YOUNG LADIES. Rev. C. A. RAYMOND, Principal 58 PUPILs HAvE ENTERED sINCE lOGTH OFJAN'Y. T HIE prospects of the Institution for the present year, are in the highest degree fattering. Several additional Pupils have been promised, and a large number are confidently expected. The Academical building consisting of eight commodious Rooms is finely furnished with every thing necessary to secure the most rapid advance ttient of the Pupils. In this respect we do not think greater advantages can be anywhere enjoyed. The prescribed course of Studies is so arranged, that if the Pupils remain long enough at the Institution to pursue it regularly, they can hardly fail of acquiring a liberal and finished education; and in the Extra course a thorough knowledge of the fine arts. Pupils can enter at any time, and if near the middle or close -of the Session, are charged but from the time of entrance. All such deductions however date from the close of the second week of that Session. Loss of time from sickness if of more than two -weeks is also deducted. The Rates of Tuition are conformed to those of other Institutions of the same grade. Payments are to be made at the close of each Session. The fol lowing list includes all Expenses per Session of 14 Weeks.

It is particularly recomn mended as a tonic, to persons recovering from fever or other diseasmes, a few drops imparting to the stomach a glow and vigor equal to a; wine-glassful of brandy or other stimulant, without any of the debilitating effects which are sure to follow the use of liquor of any kind ; and it is thereforerespecially serviceable to children and females. To the agedl it,. will prove a great conmfort; to ihe dyspeptic, and to those who are predisposed to gout or rhematic affections, it gives great relief; and to the inebriate who wishes to re form, but whose stomach is constantly craving the noxions liquor, it is invaluable--giving tone to the digestive organs, and strength to resist temptation ; and is consequently a great agenti in. the cause of temperance.

Augusta, Dec 14 tf 48 PROSPECTUS OF THE Carolina Times, T HE undersigned will publish, in the town of Columbia, about the 1st of February next, a Da&Ly, TuR-WEUILY, and WEEKLY Newspaper, bearing the title of THE CAROLINA TIMES. The limits of a Prospectus do not admit of a minute delineation of all the features of the contem plated journal. It will be sufficient to indicate the general character of the Times. It will be a News paper in the widestmeaning.of the term, embracing within its columns all matters of information inter esting or useful to the public. It will be a political journal, chiefly devoted to the dissemination of political intelligence. Above all, it will ever main tain the constitutional rights and the peculiar insti tutions of the South, yielding allegiance to no party which does not unequivocally recognise those rights and stoutly uphold those institutions. In matters of State policy, the Times will be conservative. It will oppose all changes in the fundamental law and the administration of the State, which are not im peratively demanded by the " general welfare," and the clearly ascertained will of the people. No mea sure of reform will be advocated because it is new, and no error in policy will be upheld though it may have the sanction of long-estahlished usage. The Commercial and Agricultural interests of the State shall receive their due share of attention. The Times will contribute its mite to the development of her immense resources, and encourage the Arts and Sciences which minister to the well being, social and political, of her people. And it shall be insist ed on that Columbid, the beautiful capital of the State, shall partake of the general prosperity, whilst no attempt will be made to disparage the local ad vantage of other towns and sections. The latest intelligence, both foreign and domestic, shall be carefully reported. To this end the Telegraph and other means within the reach of the undersigned shall be laid under contribution. The DmLY TiMEs will be furnished to subscri bers at $6 ; the Tt-WEEKLYat $3; and the WEEK LY at $2 per annum, in advance. GRENEKER & LAMOTTE, Publishers. JAMES 11. GILES, Editor.
