Ol'l'oit VCfiVITY. —TO ALL Wasting FARMS—
m a healthy place, twcnty.fiv. miles from Phila
' on ll* Carrnipn au<! Atlantic ruiiroad, New
iersey. An old e>tale ha- been recently opencit for
•-ale, and the (ir-t division of 10,900 n.-rcs divided
up into (arm of twenty acres and upwards. The soil
is ol t)y f.rsr quality for the production of fruits, grains
Xc. jhe price is sls to 52.) per acres, payable in
easy quarterly yearly instalments, with a term ot
tour years, with interest. The terms are made ea
sy, in order to insure the rapid improvement of the
land, by enabling every iuUuslrtoii* -man to bay a fa: in.
It is now being extensively improved by good roads,
and some of the best citizens from New England
and the Middle States are erecting large improve
ments. It is a scene of the greatest improvement
out ct Philadelphia. Seventy-five houses have been
built in lour months. Practical farmers and business
men from the length arut breadth of the Union are
settling there. It is an important business place, on
account of its being in the midst of a great market.
F.very article raised upon this land finds an immedi
ate sale. The water is excellent, and no such thing
as lever is known. The soil is a sandy loam, with a
chuj iotlum and retentive of manures. It is free of
stones and easily worked. It abounds largely in the
phosphates, and such is its fertility that from the
crops produced both upon this land and the large a
rea adjoining under cultivation, it will be found not
to be excelled anywhere in the production of crops
most adapted to its market. The reader may be well
aware that the earliest and be,t (ruils and vegeta
bles come from New Jersey, which are annually ex
ported to the amount of millions of dollars. The
land, besides being accessible in every way lor fer
tiiiizers, has an abundant supply of lhe best quality
of muck manure. Lumber and building materials
can be had on the spot at a cheap price, from the
mills. Other mills are now being opened, and brick
yards being started on the ground. A person can put
up a frame tenement for present convenience for one
hundred dollars. On account of the extensive emi
gration, this is the best course to pursue 111 order to
get a place to live in at first. Carpenters and build
ers are on hand to put up houses ori the best terms.
in settling here the emigrant has many advanta
ges. He is within a few hours' rule of the great ci
ties in the Middle tilales and New England; he is
near his oid friends and association-; be is in a set
tled country, where every improvement and comfort
of civilization is at hand; l.e is in a healthy place,
arid is not subject To the certainty oflosing the grea
ter pait of his family ami his own health by those
malignant levers which make the graves o; so many
million, of the young ami hardy in far oh" region- a
way from home and friends. Besides, he has a mild
climate and an open winter. There uie Ihree tiains
daily lo I'hiladelphia, and to all those who improve
the railroad company givlesa tree ticket. The rea
der will at once be struck with the advantages here
presented, and a-k himself why the property has not

the U. States and had the experience and practice

ber ol the Analytical Medical Institute ol N. York,

now offers himself lo the public to attend any pro
fessional calis.
The purest medicines always on hand direct from
the beCi Laboratories of our country, and the Botani
cal Gardens o' the world. No patent medicines pre
scribed or recommended. Medicities used only which
will not break down the constitution, but will reno
vate the system from all injuries it has sustained
from mineral medicines. Chronic and difficult disea
ses must be treated upon analytical principles, which
is to know and ascertain what disease is. Its nature
and character require a knowledge ol the chemical
constituents ot every solid and fluid ot the human
body; the changes those,solids and fluids are capable
of undergoing. To know what medicines to employ
to cure disecses, requires a knowledge ot the chemi
cal constituents of all agents employed in medicine;
and if we are in pos,e-sior. of this knowledge, it is
possible to cure any disease—no matter ol how long
standing—and Rave the patient in a healthy and per
fectly cured condition.
Melancholy, Aberration, or that state of alienation
and weakness of the mind which renders persons in
capable w enjoy ing lhe pleasures or performing the
duties of life; Dyspepsia, that distressing disease and
fall destioyerof health and happiness, undermining
the constitution, and yearly carrying thousands to
untimely graves, can most emphatically be cured.
Rheumatism, in any form or condition, chronic or
acute, warranted curable; Epilepsy or fdlliiig sick
ness; a!) chronic and stubborn diseases of Females
radically removed. Salt Rheum, and every
desertion ol ulcerations: Piles and Scrofulous Dis
eases, which have baffled all previous medical skill
can be cured by my treatment, when the constitu
tion is not exhausted.
Ido say all diseases (ves, Consumption ) can be
cured.

COMPOUNDED ENTIRELY FROM GUMS,
/ v an' nf the be t purgative and liver medicines now
! before the public, that acts as a Cathartic, easier,
! milder, and more eflectuai than any other medicine
I known. It is not only a Cathartic, but a Liver re
medy, acting fii-t on the Liver to eject its morbid
matter, then on the stomach and bowels to carry oft
that matter, thus accomplishing two purposes effect
ually, without any of the painful feelings exper
! enced in the operations of mo>t Cathartics. It
strengthens the sy-tein at the same time that it
purges it; and when taken daily in moderate doses,
| will strcnthen and build it up with unusual rapid
-Ihe LIVER isoneolthe principal regulators o(
j the human body; and when it performs its
| functions well, the pow- jv# ers of the system are ftil
' ly developed. The stomach isalmo-tentire/y de
pendent on the healthy w action of the Liver tor
. the proper performance of its functions; hen
I the stomach isat fault, " the bowels are at faalr,
I and the whole system suffers in consequence
j of one organ —the Liver —having ceased *o do
; its duty. For the i!is- wt eases of that organ, one
of the proprietors has made it his study, in s
I practice of more than ** jtwenty years, to find
some remedy where- with to counteract the
j many derangements to „ which it is liable.
1 To prove that this re- rnedy is at last found,
j any person troubled with .Liver Complaint, in any
of its forms, has but to ye a bottle, and conviction
is certain.
The-e (iurns remove all mm bid or bad matter
from the system, supply-' ng in their place a heal
by flow of liile, mvig- 'orating the stomach, cair
sing food to digest well, -,s purifying the blood, giv
ing tone and health 'o the whole machinery,
removing the cause t -ithe disease—effecting a
radical cure.
Billions attacks are , cured, and what Is bet
ter, prevented, by the occasional use of the
Liver Invigoratnr.
One dose altercating y is suficient to relieve the
stomach and prevent the .C foot' from rising and
souring. sa>
Only one dose taken ,a ' , at night, loosens the
, bowels gently.and cure? tVtiveness.
One dose taken after each meal will cure Dys
epsi.-. dose of MT two teaspoonfuiis will
always relieve Sick Headache.
One bottle taken for female obstruction, re
moves liie ran-e of the rt disease and makes a per
fect cure. Only one dose immediately rel i eve s
j C'tiohc while one dose otien repeated is a sure
cure for Cholera Morbus 9 ari d a preventive of
Cholera.
CCyOnly one bottle is needed to throw out of the
system the effects of medicine altera long sickness.
! One bottle taken tor Jaundice removes all sallowness
or unnatural color from the skin.
One do-e taken a short time before eating gives
vigor to the appetite, and makes food digest well.—
One dose often repeated cures, Chronic Dtarrhoua, in
it" worst forms, while Summer and Bowel com
plaints vield almost to the first dose. One or two
doses cures attacks caused by Worms in Children;
: there is no St.rer, safei,oi speedier remedy in the
world, as it never fails.
S7"A few bottles cures Dropsy, by exciting the
absorbents.
We take pleasure in recommending this medicine
as a preventive for Fever and Ague, Chill Fever and
ail Fevers of a Billions Type, ft operates with cer
tainty, and thousands are willing to testify to its
wonderful virtues. AH who use it are giving their
unanimous testimony in its favor.
CF*Mix WATER IN THE .worm WITH THE INVIGOR
ATOR, and swallow both together.
THE I.IVF.R INVIUORATOR.
Is a scientific medical discovery, and is daily working
cures, almost too great to believe. It cures as if by
magic, even the first dose giving benefit, and seldom
more than one bottle is required to cure any kind of
Liver Complaint, from the worst Jaundice or Dys
pepsia to a common Headache, all of which are the
result oi a Diseased Liver.

| Talk of beauty, and it caunot exist without a fine

Professor Wood's Hair Restorative. —We
; call the attention of all, old and young, ro this won
derful preparation, which turns back to its original
j color, gray hair—covers the head of the bald with a
luxuriant growth—removes the dandruff, itching,and
! all cutaneous eruptions—causes a continual flow of

| dressing for the hair >1 preserve its color,and keep
if from falling to extreme old age, in all its natural
j beauty. We call then upon the bald, the grey, oi
! diseased in scalp, to use "it; ami surely the young will
1 not, as they value the flowing locks, or the witching
j curl, ever be without it. Its praise is upon the tongue
i of thousands. *
The Agent for Prof. Wood's Hair Restorative in
i New Haven, received the following letter in regard
! to the Restorative, a few weeks since;
DEEP RIVER, CON., July 23, 1 858.
Mr. Levenvvorth—Sir; 1 have been troubled with
dandruff or scurf on rny head for more than a year,
j my hair began to come out, scurf and hair together,
i 1 saw iii a New Haven paper about '-Wood's Hair
; Ke.-toranve" as a cure. 1 calied at your store on the
; Ist of April last, and purchased one bottle to try it,
and I found to my satisfaction it was the thing, it re
moved the scurf and new hair began to-grow; it is
now two or three inches in length where it was all
off. I have great faith it> it. 1 wish you to send me
two bottles more by Mr. Post, the bearer of this.—
I don't know as any of the kind is used in this
place, yon may have a market, for many bo; ties after
- it is known here. Yours with jespect,
RUFL'S PRATT.
PIULA., Sept., 9, 1857.
Prof. Wood—Dear Sir: Your Hair Restorative is
proving itseli beneficial to me. The front, and also
the back part of my bead almost lost its covering—in
| tact hail. 1 have used but two half pint hotrfes ol
[ your Restorative, and now the top of my head is well
j studded with a promising crop of young hair, and the
! front is al?o receiving its benefit. 1 have tried other
i preparations without any benefit whatever. 1 think
j iiom my own per- inal recommendation I can induce
many others to try it.

Prof. O. J. Wood: As you are about to tnanafact

tive, I will state, for whomsoever it may concern,
that I have used it and known others to use it—thai
I leave, for several years, been in the habit of using,
other Hair Kestoratives, and that 1 find yours vastly
superior to any other I know. It entirely cleanses
the head of dandruff, and with one month's proper
use will restore any person's hair to the original
youthful color and texture, giving it a healthy, soft
and glossy appearance; and all this, without discolor
ing the hands that apply it, or the dress on which
it drops, I would, therefore, rrcommend its use to
every one desirous of having a fine color and texture
