The unbounded approbation bestowed on the plan and execution of the YOUNG PEOPLE'S BOOK, by the conductor of the public press throughout the U. States, and by numerous per sons of the highest distinction, in the various walks ol literature, fcciencc and Art, as well as the sub stan'ial patronage it has received, have induced the publisher not only to increase its claims to re gard by adding to its literary merits, but also to make it more accessible to all classes of the community, by Seducing the Price of Subscription. For the former purpose, besides continuing the services 01 PROFESSOR FROST, whose ample scholarship, cnlaTged information, correct taste, and acknowledged ability as an ole gani and instructive writer, peculiarly qualify him jor tne management ot a periodical devoted to young people, the publisher has engaged the EDITORIAL AID OF T. S. ARTHUR, r gentleman so favorably known to the American public, through the medium of his unsurpassed pro ductions, that it would be idle to pronounce any eulogy on his merits. Perhaps no living author is more eminently fitted to impart instruction in an attractive and impressive form than Mr. Arthur. Endowed with an extraoiclinary acuteness of per ception, and the most vivid power of delineation, ho has applied these rare gifts to the development of practical truths, and while every thing which falls from his pen is calculated to attract and fix the highest degree of interest, it impresses at the same time the most useful moral. Thousands, it may confidently bo asserted, have already been awa-" kened to a sense of duties unperformed, or evil habits unrestrained, by the simple and unobtrusive but searching lessons he has taught, and in the new field which his connection with the editorial de partment of the Younsr People's Book will onen to him, no doubt can be entertained that he will reap "u uuuuia jui lmnaeii, ana comer iresn uenenis on the community. In addition to the labours of the editors, whose energies will be constantly directed to maintain and improve the high character which the Young a wpca ijuun naa auquirea, xne various iiierary and scientific persons, whose contributions have pven dignity and force to the work, will continue 10 be regular correspondents, and to these will be united almost every native writer, male or female, whose aid may be made instrumental in promoting ihe great object of the work namely, to convey useful knowledge in such a form as will gratify the tastes while it will improve the minds and hearts of thoso classes to whom it will be espe cially addressed. Withoutjntending tho slightest disparagement to either of the many admirable periodicals now issued from the American press, the publisher of tho Young People's Book feels justified in savin mar, jus worK possesses advantages, in some re pects, which no other can fairly claim. Avoiding on the one hand whatever is frivolous in itself or false in its teachings, and on the other, whatever is tedious or uncntertaining, it occupies a middle ground between the magazines exclusively devo ted to light literature and those of n tifir. character, and by making the graces of corn- position subservient to the inculcation of orartir.al knowledge, it is calculated alike for pleasure and profit. In point of embellishment the Young People's Book will not suffer by comparison with the cost liest productions of the times. flic Mezzotint and Steel Plates it has furnished have all been prepared by artists of the greatest celebrity, and some of the former are universally admitted to surpass in appropriate ness of design and elegance of execution, any oth ers which have been published in this country. Those intended for the forthcoming volume aro not less distinguished by fitness and beauty; and adding to these the NU.MEIIOUS ENGRAVINGS ON WOOD which wiil also be given, it may bo predicted with safety that the pictoral department will be such, as of itself will merit the most extended patronage The Young People's Book, though, as its name imjMi-s, principally designed for youth of both Ffcxes, is adapted to nil classes. Persons of eve ry age who -are competent to read understandingly ir.ay derive both information and amusement fiom it pages, and m every well ordered family circle it cannot fail to prove an acceptable and agreea ble companion, through whose agency both men tal recreation and mental discipline will be pro moted. To enable every family.no matter how limited its pecuniary circumstances may be, to subscribe, the publisher has determined to reduce tnc price of the work, notwithstanding the new arrangements ho has entered into will considera bly augment the outlay he is compelled to make, for h;s compensation ho relies on an cnlnmorl puscripiion list, which he cannot permit himself to doubt he will immediately obtain. me loung People's Book is published Month ly.

Proved in more than 400,000 cases to be infal lible; the only certain worm-destroying medi- 1 1 . cine ever discovered. Many diseases arise from worms and occasion long and intense suff ering and even death, without their ever being suspected; grown persons are very often afilict- ed with them and are doctored for various com plaints, without any benefit; when one dose of these Lozenges would speedily cure them. Mr. J. Murphy, 90 .North si. Philadelphia, was applied to by a poor woman whose daugh ter, 7 years old, had been sick for nearly 3 years; her stomach was as large as a grown person s, her arms and legs so swollen that she could not walk or help herself, although she could eat as much as two laboring men. Two celebrated doctors had exhausted their skill without any benefit; the father had spent all he could raise and was discouraged, he abandon ed all idea of doing anything more for her, aiu looked to death alone, to take her out of her misery. Mr. Murphy believing it a case of worms, gave her a box of Sherman s Lozenges, and in two days she returned with joy beaming in her eyes, and said tho Lozenges had saved ter child's life. The first dose brought away nearly a pint of worms in one living mass, she afterwards counted over 800 that were discharg ed, besides the mass which she could not count. The child was literally eaten up with hem another living witness of the almost mir aculous efficacy of Sherman's Lozenges.

WAYNE COUNTY MUTUAL ALL Persons insuring in this company are members equally interested in its welfare and in the election of its officers. In order to become a member of this company and thereby be insured, the applicant gives a pre mium note,' the amount of which is in proportion to the amount to be insured, and its degree of hazard, thus: If SlOOO is to be insured, at 5 per cent., he gives his note for $50. If at 10 per cent, he gives his note for $100, and in that proportion for a greater or less sum, according to the rate of hazard, on which note he advances G per cent, and an additional sum of Si 50 for survey and policy. He then becomes a member on the approval of his application and is insured for five years. The aggregate of the premium notes constitutes the cash fund, chargable first, with the expenses, and second, with the losses of the Company; and should it prove insufficient to pay both losses and expenses the money to meet the losses, (should any occur) is borrowed agreeably to the act of in corporation, and paid. An assessment is then made to repay such loan upon the premium notes in proportion to their respective amounts, and in no case to be made but once a year, notwithstanding several losses may happen. At the expiration of five years the note, if any assessments have been made and paid, is given up, and the insured may renew his application. Policies may at any time be assigned or sur rendered and cancelled, and the premium notes given up. according to the by-laws of the Com pany. No more than three fourths of the cash value of any property will be insured, and all great hazards: such as Cotton Factories, Powder Mills, Distilleries, Machine Shops, Manufactories for Printer's Ink, and all establishments of the same class of hazards, are not insured upon any conditions whatever, and that no one risk is taken over $5000, it is considered much more safe and less expensive than in Stock companies, where they insure large amounts and hazardous property.

This extraordinary medicine is founded, upon V.J the principle that the human-Yrame is xsubjcct,to ONLY ONE DISEASE, viz: Corrupt Humors, or in other woids Impurity of the Blood, and noth ing save vegetable cleansing, is wanted in order to drive disease of every description from the bo dy. If the channels of our mighty rivers should be come choked up, would not the accumulated wa ters find new outlets, or the country be inundated! Just so with the human body; if the natural drains become closed, the accumulated impurities will most assuredly find vent in some form of disease, or death will be a certain consequence. WRIGHTS INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS are eminently calculated for carrying out this GRAND PURIFYING PRINCIPLE, because they are a purgative medicine so justly balanced and withal so natural to the human constitution, that they cannot possibly injure the most delicate; at the same time, if used in such a manner as to produce free evacuations by the bowels, and re peated a few times, it will be absolutely impossi ble for pain or distress of any kind to continue in the body. A single twenty-five cent box of the above named Indian Vegetable Pills will, in all cases, give relief, sometimes even beyond the power of words to describe, and if persevered in for a short time, there is not a malady in the whole course of human ills that can possibly with stand their astonishing and wonderful influence. WRIGHT'S INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS are a certain cure for COSTIVENESS, Because they completely cleanse the stomach and bowels from those billious and corrupt humours which paralyse and weaken the digestive organs, and are the cause of headache, nausea, and sick ness, palpitation of the heart, rheumatic pains in various parts of the body, and many other unplea sant symptoms. In all disordered motions of the Blood, called Intermittent, Remittent, Nervous; Inflammatory, and Putrid FEVERS, Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will be found a certain remedy; because they cleanse the stom ach and bowels from all bilious humours and pu rify the blood; consequently, as they remove eve ry kind of disease, they are absolutely certain to cure every kind of fever. So, also, when, morbid humours are deposited upon the membrane and muscle, causing those pains, inflammations and swellings, called RHEUMATISM, GOUT, &c, Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills may be relied on as always certain to give relief, and if persevered with, will most assuredly, and witnout fail, make a perfect cure of the above painful maladies. From three to six of said Indian Vegetable Pills taken every night on going to bed, will, in a short time, completely rid the body from all morbid and corrupt humours; and rheumatism, gout, and pain of every description, will despair, as if by magic. For the same reason, when, from sudden changes of the atmosphere, or any other cause, the perspiration is checked, and those humours v hich should pass off by the skin, arc thrown in wardly, causing headache, nausea, and sickness, pain in the bones, watery and inflamed eyes, sore throat, hoarseness, coughs, consumption, rheu matic pains in various parts of the body, and ma ny other symptoms of CATCHING COLD, Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will invariably give immediate relief. Three or four pills taken at night on going to bed, and repeated a few times will remove all the above unpleasant symptoms, and restore the body to even sounder health than before. The same may be said of difficulty of breathing, or ASTHMA. Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will loosen and carry off by the stomach and bowels those rough and phlegmy humours which stop the air cells of the lungs, and arc the cause of the above dreadful complaint. It should also be remembered that WRIGHTS INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS are certain to remove pain in the side,-oppression, nausea and sickness, loss of appetite, costiveness, a yellow tingo of the skin and eyes, and every other symp tom of LIVER COMPLAINT. Because they purge from the body those corrupt and stagnant humours,' which when deposited on the liver, aro tho cause of the abovo dangerous complaint They aro also to prevent APOPLEXY AND SUDDEN DEATH. Because they carry off thoso humors which ob structing the circulation, aro tho csusc of a rush, or determination of blood to tho head; giddiness, especially on turning suddenly round, blindness, drowsiness, loss of memory, inflamation of tho brain, insanity, and all disorders of tho mind. Phone who labour within doors eUould remem ber that they frequently breathe An atmosphere which is wholly unfit for tho proper expansion of the lungs, and at the Bamo timo owing to want of exercise, tho bowels aro not sufficiently evacua ted, the blood becomes impure, and headache, in digestion, palpitation of tho heart, and many other disagreeable symptoms are sure to follow.
