States, and by numerous per sons of the highest distinction, in the various walks of Literature, Science and Art, as well ns the sub stantial patronage it has received, have induced the publisher not only to increase its claims to re gard by ADDING TO ITS L1TEIUHY MERITS, but also to make it more accessible to all classes of the community, by Jfccd'ucuig j he Price of Subscription. For the former purpose, besides continuing the -services of PROFESSOR FROST, whose ample scholarship, enlarged information, correct taste, and acknowledged ability as an ele gant and instructive writer, peculiarly qualify him for the management of a periodical devoted to young people, the publisher has engaged the EDITORIAL AID OF T. S. ARTHUR, si gentleman so favorably known to tho American public, through the- medium of his unsurpassed pro ductions, that it would bo 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 extraordinary acuteness of per ception, and the most vivid power of delineation, lie 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 be asserted, have already been awa Icened 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 Young People's Book will open to him, no doubt can be entertained that he will reap Jresh honors for himself, and confer fresh benefits 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 People's Book has acquired, the various literary and scientific persons, whose contributions have jriven dignity and force to the work, will continue to be regular correspondents, and to these will be united almost every native writer, male or female, "wluse aid may be ma'de instrumental in promoting the preat 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 he u ts of those classes to whom it will be espe cially addressed. Without intending the slightest disparagement to either of the many admirable periodicals now issued from the American press, the publisher of the Young People's Book feels justified in sajing that his work possesses advantages, in some re pecls, wliich no other can fairly claim. Avoiding n the one hand whatever is frivolous in itself or filso in its teachings, and on the other, whatever is tedious Or unentertaining, it occupies a middle ground between the magazines exclusively devo te 1 to light literature and those of a purely scien tific chnractor, and by making the graces of com position subservient to the inculcation of practical knowledge, it is. calculated alike for pleasure and 7rfit. In point of embellishment the Young People's Book will not sufTerby comparison with the cost Jrest productions of the times. 'JTIie lozzotsnt :tud Steel PJa tcs it has furnished have all been prepared by artists of J lie greatest celebrity, and some of the former are universally admitted to surpass in appropriate ness of desgn and elegance of execution, any oth ers which have been published in this country. Those intended .for the forthcoming volume are not less distinguished by fitness and beauty; and adding to these the NUMEROUS ENGRAVINGS ON WOOD which win also be given, it may be predicted with safety that the pictoral department will be such, as tf itself will merit the most extended patronage. The Young People's Book, though, as its name implies, principally designed for youth of both cxe.s, is adapted to nil classes. Persons of eve jy age who arc competent to read understand! ngly may derive both information and' amusement from j?.- pages, and in 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 bo pro moted. To coable every family, no matter how 1-mitpd its pecuniary circumstances may be, to subscribe, the publisher has determined to reduce i io price of the work, nqtwithstanding the new : rrangements he has entered into will considera l'lv augment tlic outlay he is compelled to make. For .his compensation he relies on an enlarged f ubscripiion list, which he cannot permit himself jo doubt he will immediately obtain. The Young People's Book' is published Month ly.

Proved in more than 400,000 cases to be infal lible; the only certain worm-destroying medi 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 olten allud 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 st. Philadelphia, was applied to by a poor woman whose uaugn 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; tho father had spent all he could raise and was discouraged, he abandon ed all idea of doing anything more for her, and looked to death done, 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 her child's life. The first dose brought away nearly a pint of worms in one living mass, she afterwards counted over 800 that were discharged,- besides the mass w.hich she could not count. The child was literally eaten up with them another living witness of the almost mir aculous efficacy of Sherman's Lozenges.

WAYNE COUNTY MUTUAL INSURANCE COIFAKI. 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 bo 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 $1000 is to be insured, at 5 per cent., he gives ids note for S50. If at 10 per cent, he gives his note for $100, and in that proportion for a greater or less sum, according to tho 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 bo 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.

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 without 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.
