READY-MADE CLOTHING.
rilHE ladies, gentlemen and young pco
_I_ plc of Columbia, who may bo in want
of "SOMETHING TO WEAR,'' are respect?
fully and earnestly invited by the ladies ol'
the Industrial Association to call at their
Work-room, in tho Female Academy, and
examine the articles which they haye now
ready for sale. Some one will always be
found ready to exhibit thc ready-made gar?
ments and to receive orders from those
who may wish to have work done neatly
and promptly.
Tho object of the Association is to fur?
nish constant employment to those who,
having been impoverished by the war, now
depend on tho needle for daily bread.
Does not such an object commend itself to
thc hearts of our citizens? Or must the
anxious applicants for work be told that
ourpeople prefer Northern-made garments,
and that there is, therefore, no more work
for them? Shall it be said that such an
Association as this cannot be sustained in
the capital of South Carolina? Jan 19
PROSPECTUS"
THE BAPTIST.
WE PROPOSE to publish a WEEKLY
PAPER, devoted to tho diffusion of
tho principles of religion and the interests
of the Baptist denomination. We have
been moved to this undertaking by the
solicitations of brethren in various por?
tions of this State, as well as of other
States, among * tho readers, of the late
<Jonfedei'ate Baptist, and by our own con?
viction that a paper of a high character
would contribute largely to the intellectual
improvement, the religious progress and
the general welfare of the churches. The
field is large affording ample room for all
sincere and zealous laborers.
The Baptist will be printed on a sheet
about twenty-two by thirty-two inches, and
will contain twenty-four "broad columns,
mostly in Long Primer type, clear and
legible, so that it may be read with com?
fort, even by the aged. Its entire mecha?
nical execution will be of the highest order.
Our columns will be enriched by corres?
pondence and contributions from the
other Southern States, and, occasionally,
from Europe and our missionary stations
abroad. Hie entertainment and instruc
j tion of tho young-especially the child
I ren-wiii not De forgotten; ami our rene
j ble friend, "Uncle Fabian," so well and
i favorably known to the readers of thc
I Confed?rale Baptist, will resume his labors
; in their behalf. In short, w . possess all
i tho facilities requisite to produce a paper
I of tbi! lirst rank. As ? U<-1?. we offer it to

The Great American Blood Purifier.
HHS QUEEN'S DELIGHT!
rpHE QUEEN'S DEL1GU P, the great
L American Alterative and B!.I Puri?
fier, is tho most perfect vegetable com?
pound ot alteratives, tonics, diuretics and
diaphoretics; making ii the most effective
invigorating, rejuvenating and blood
cleansing cordial Known to the world.
lu introducing this new and extraordi?
nary medicine to the public, observation
leads us to remark that too little attention
is paid to the "lifo of all flesh," the blood.
Many diseases, and, tea,many complaints,
which have- their origin in a vitiated state
of the blood, are treated only as symptoms
and results; whereas, if the renn dy had
been applied to enrich the blood and ren?
tier it pure, both cause and effect would
have been removed. The Queen's Delight
is offered to the afflicted as a sure remedy
for those, diseases arising from an impure
condition of tho blood. It has a direct
and specific action upon that fluid, and
consequently renders thc blood pure, lt
is said, on high authority, that '.man no
sooner begins to live than ito begins to
die, and that the characteristics of the
living organism are ceaseless change and
ceaseless waste." It is obvious, therefore,
to every reflecting mind, that unless the
blood is pure, in supplying the waste tis?
sues with material, it must be the cause of
innumerable ills and constitutional disor?
ders, such as Scrofula, Rheumatism, He?
patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma?
tions, Fevers, Ac. Rife and health is only
to be maintained by the circulation of pure
arterial blood.
We therefore advise every ona whose
blood is in the least vitiated by indulgence

Compound is attracting the attention of
svery one, not only at home, but abroad.
The merits of this compound are being
felt and appreciated evervwhere. Heal
ivhat they say of it in Ne\V York: "It is a
remedy of much importance and value,
exerting au influence over all the seerc
tions, which is unsurpassed by any other
known alterative, lt is extensively used in
ill the various forms of primary and
secondary syphilitic affections; also, in
scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases,
in which its use is followed by thc most
successful results."
? Its properties as a remedy were first in?
troduced to the notice of the profession by
Dr. Thos. Young Simons, of South Carolina,
ns early as 1828, as a valuable alterative re?
medy in syphilitic affections, and others re?
quiring use of mercury. Dr. Simons' state?
ments have been endorsed and extended
by Dr. A. Lopez, of Mobile, and Dr. H. R.
Frost, of Charleston. From the reports in
its favor, there seems no reason to doubt
thc efficacy of this medicine in Secondary
Syphilis, Scrofula, Cutaneous Diseases,
Chronic Hepatic Affections and other com?
plaints benefited by alterative medicines.
