********************
THE present mode - of doing business (we mein
j,..' . the CREDIT SYSTEM) is now carried to such an
extent, that it is not only attended with Jisaster and
Vexation to the cash and prompt solvent buyer, by
indreasing the number of his.compkitors, but, un
less every precaution and the utmost prudence is
observed,.the whblesale dealer is involved in diffi
culty, and two-thirds, at least, who embark in the
credit -business, ire reducad by bad debts to abso
lute bankruptcy. ,
With this truth beforePs, we have determined to
change our system of business, by selling only for
cash, or on vett short time for prompt payment; and
beg leave to call the attention of purchaiers to the
advantages we can offer as inducements to examine
our stock.
Possessing every facility for purchasing at the
lowest cash prices, and at all times ready to avail
ourselves of a fall in the market; watching every
Auction Sale in this, and not unfrequently in neigh-
baring cities; we feel confident of our ability to
sell, at least, a portion of our stock lower than the
same articles can be bought elsewhere, and the
whole at the smallest possible advance.
Our stock will embrace every article usually found
in a Wholesale Dry Goods establishment, and we
respectfulty invite your attention, when in our city,
knowing that, with the many% inducements we can
offer, we cannot fail to convince the doubting and
incredulous, that the small advance charged spoil
the cost will not include losses by bad debts and.
lawyers fees, or the expenses of a travelling col
lector; and, to every cash buyer, who will spare
the time to give our stock a careful examination,
we pledge ourselves to sell him a satisfactory bill,
or compel tither houses to Stil him cheaper than they
hare Mr donsbefore. To Conclude, we promise
it shall be our constant am,in our intercourse
with the retail dealer, not ony to make it his inter
est to purchase of us, but, by pursuing a - course of
strict integrith . to merit his confidence, custom and
influence. .

Extra Sunbeam Portraits.
H. H. LAUGHLIN, has opened his new Extra
Sunbeam Daguerreotype Gallery, at 376
Market Street, south side, first door above Eleventh
Street, {over Rowand & Walton's Drug Store,)
Philadelphia, where he will be happy to see his
old patrons, and all others, who feel desirous of
having a life-like portrait of themselves or relatives
taken by his new Extra Sunbeam process; visit
his gallery and see his beautiful and artisticak speci
mons ,taken and put up in the latest improvement
of the art—faithful likenesses, delineating every
feature and expressions of nature in almost life it
self. This new process may be well entitled art's
best gift Leman—a blessing to the human family.
The gallery is of easy access—being on the
second floor, having to rescend only one easy flight
of stairs, and located in.one of the most business
sections of Market Street, immediately adjacent to
the Baltimore and Philadelphia Railroad Depot.
From his long experience and close observations
in the artists of his profession, he flatters himself
that he will be enabled to please every one who
may visit him with their patronage.
Remember, it matters not as to the color of the
dress or drapery, or whether the day be clear or
cloudy, the Extra Sun-Beam process is always cer
tain-, artd'Ahe pictures taken by it arc warranted to
be proof against water, air or dampness of any
kind, and will stand for ages without thding in the
least—a truthfulness rarely if ever to be found in
the old process.

to defy competition.
The advantages to be derived from having a large
stock to select from, ought certainly to be apparent
to every one; only two need he mentioned:
Ist. The variety to please the taste.
2d. The advantage of purchasing at the lowest
prices ; fur it is certainly evident to every thinking
mind, that the larger the business done, the small
er the profit required. It is no in every branch of
trade. Theirranufucturer sells' to the wholesale
package dealer; the wholesale package dealer
sells to the jobber and the jobber to the retail

of the article pays at least four profits !

PHILADELPHIA MEDICAL HOUSE—Estab
lished 15 years ago by DR. KirxnEms. The
oldest, surest and best hand to cure all forms or
secret diseases, diseases of the skin, and solitary
habits of youth, is Dr. Kinkelin, Northwest corner
of THIRD and UNION Streets, between Spruce
and Pine, a :3(ld:ire-and-a-half from the Exchange,
Philadelphia.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE
There is a habit which boys teach each other at
the Academy or College—a habit indulged in when
by himself, in solitude,_ gullying up with the boy to
manhood ; few of those who indulge in this perni
cious practice are aware 01 the consequences until
they find the nervous system shattered, reel strange
and unaccountable feelings, vague fears in the mind.
The individual becomes feeble, he is unable to labor
with accustomed vigor, or to apply his mind to
study; his step is tardy and weak, he is dull, ir
resolute.
If the Solitaiy Vire
Is continued, the procreative power is destroyed,
and marriage rendered impossible, a lung train of
nervous affections follow, the countenance is down
cast, the eyes without natural lustre, shamefaced
ness is apparent. THESE ARE SYMPTOMS WHICH
SHOULD AWAKEN the attention of those similarly
afflicted.
If the Victim
Be concious of the cause of his decay, and quit it,
he suffers under those terrible nocturnal and invol
untary emissions, tvlch weaken and shame him,
producing mental and physical prostration. If he
emancipates himself before the practice has done
its worst, and enters matrimony, his marriage is
unfruitful, and his sense tells him that this is caused
by his early follies.
Persons of all ages can now judge what is the
cause of their declining health, losing their vigor,
Ilecoming weak, pale and emaciated.
Young Men !
Let no false modesty deter you from making your
case known to one, who, from education and re
spectability, can alone befriend you: He who
places himself under DR. KINKELIN 9 S treatment,
may religiously confide in his honor as a gentle.
man, and in whose bosom will be forever locked
the secret of the patient.
Thousands have been restored to health, from
the devastations of those terriffic maladies by Dn.

The Art-Union is established for the purpose of
extending a love for the fine arts throughout the
United States, and to give encouragement to Ar
tists beyond that afforded by the patronage of ind;-
viduals. Its promoters believe that these arts can
never attain their due rank in this country (already
so far advanced in many of the other elements of
civilization) until adequate encouragement be given
to the highest efforts of the Painter and Sculptor.
For the accomplishment of this object, the Soci
ety has adopted the following
PLAN:
I. Each subscriber of Five Dollars becomes a
member of the Art-Union for one year.
The money thus obtained is applied, first, to the
procuring of a large and cpstly Engraving, from an
original American Picture, of which every member
receives a copy; and next, to the purchase of Pic
tures, Drawings, or other works of Art, with the
funds distributed by lot among the members for
that purpose.
Thus, for the sum of Five Dollars, every member
is sure of receiving a fine Engraving (worth alone
the amount of his subscription) and the chance of
obtaining a fine original Painting, to be SELECTED
BY HIMSELF from any public exhibition in the
United States.
For further particulars call at the Painting Room
of the undersigned, where can be seen a specimen
of the engraving, and where subscriptions are re
ceived for the same. A. ARMSTRONG.

OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND,
THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERER OF THE
Genuine Townsend Sarsaparilla..
OLD DR. TOWNSEND is now about7o Years of
age, and has long been known as the author
and discoverer of the Genuine Original Townsend
Sarsaparilla. Being poor, he was compelled to
limit its manufacture, by which means it has been
kept out of market, and the sales circumscribed to
those only who had proved its worth, and known
its value. It had reached-the ears of many, never
theless, as those persons who had been healed of
sore diseases, and saved from death, proclaimed
its excellence and wonderful HEALING POWER.
Knowing, many years ago, that he had; 'by his
skill, science and, experience, devised an article
which would be of incalculable advantage to man
kind when the means would be furnished to bring
it into universal notice, when its inestimable virtues
would be known and appreciated. This time has
come, the means are supplied ; this Grand and
Unequalled Preparation is mann,factured on the lar
gest scale, and is called for th oughout the length
and breadth of the land, esp cially as it is found
incapable of degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young S. P. Townsend's, it improves with
age, and never changes, but for the better; because
it is prepared on scientific principles by a scientific
man. The highest knowledge of Chemistry, and
the latest discoveries of the art, have all been
brought into requisition in the manufacture of the
old Dr's Sarsaparilla. The Sarsaparilla Root, is
well known to medical men contains many medical
propertieS and some properties which are inert or
useless, and others which it retained in preparing
it flir use., produce fermentation and acid, which is
injurious,to the system. Some of the properties of
Sarsaparilla are so volatile, that they entirely evap
orate and are Inst in the preparation, if they are nut
preserved by a scientific .progress, known only to
those experienced in its manidlicture. -Moreover,
these volatile principles, which fly off in vapor, or
as an exhalation, under heat, are the very essential
medical properties of the root, which give to it all
its value.
Any person can boil or stew the root till they get
a dark colored liquid, which is mord from the col
oring matter in the root than from aoything else;
they can. then strain this insipid or vapid liquid,
sweeten with sour molasses, and then call it "Sar
saparilla Extract or Syrup." But such is not the
article known as the
GENUINE OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND'S
SARSAPARILLA
This is so prepared, that all the inert properties
of the Sarsaparilla root are first removed, every
thing capable of becoming acid or of fermentation,
is extracted 8' rejected; then every particle of
medical virtue is secured in a pure and conceatra
ted lbrm; and thus it is rendered incapable of los
ing any of its valuable and healing-properties. Pre
pared in this way, it is made the most powerful
agent in the
CURE OF INNUMERABLE DISEASES
Hence the reason why we hear commendations
on every side in its favor by men, women, and
children. We 'find it doing wonders in the cure of
Consumption, Dyspepsia, and Liver Complaint, and
in Rheumatism, Scrofula, Piles, Costiveness, all
Cutaneous Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches, and all
affections arising from
IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD
It possesses a marvelous efficacy in all complaints
arising from Indigestion, from Acidity of the Stom
ach, from unequal circulation, deterMination of
blood to the head, palpitation of the heart, cold
feet and hands, cold chills and Idot flashes over the
body. It has not its equal in Colds and Coughs;
and promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspi
ration, relaxing strictures of the lungs, throat, and
every other part. But in nothing is its excellence
inure manifestly seen and acknowledged than in
all kinds and stages of
FEMALE COMPLAINTS
It works wonders in cases of Flour Albus or
Whites, Falling of the Womb, Obstructed, Suppres
sed, or Painful Menses, Irregularity of the mens
trual periods, and the like, and it is effectual in
curing all the forms ol Kidney Disease.
Ily removing obstructions, and regulating the
general system, it gives tone and strength to the
whole body, and thus cures all forms of Nervous
Diseases and Debility, and thus prevents or relieves
a great variety of other maladies, as Spinal Irrita
tion, Neuralgia, St. Vitus' Dane°, Swooning, Ep
ileptic Fits, Convulsions, &c.
It cleanses the blood, excites the liver to healthy
action; tones the stomach, and gives good diges
tion, relieves the bowels of torpor and constipation,
allays inflammation, purifies the skin, equalizes the
circulation of the blood, producing gentle warmth
equally over all parts of the body, and the insensi
ble perspiration ; relaxes all strictures and tight
ness, removes all obstructions, and invigorates the
entire nervous system. Is not this then the medi
cine you pre-eminently need T

Townsend's article; and which should bring down
upon the old Dr. such a mountain load or complain

We wish it understood because it is the absolute
truth, that S. P. Townsend's article and old Dr.
Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla arc heaven-wide
apart, and infinitely dissimilar; teat they are unlike
in every particular having not one single thing in
common.
As S. P. Townsend is no doctor, and never was,
is no chemist, no pharmaceutist—knows no more
of medicine or disease than any other common,
unscientific, unprofessional man, what guarantee
can the public have that they are receiving a genu
ine scientific meeicine, containing all the virtues
of the articles used in preparing it, and which are
incapable of changes which might render them the
AGENTS of Disease instead of health.
But what else should be expected from one who
knows nothing comparatively of medicine or dis
ease ! It requires a person of some experience to
cook and serve up even a common decent met I.
How much more important is it that the persons
who manufacture medicines designed for

should know well the medical properties of plants,
the best manner ofsccuring and concentrating their
healing virtues also an extensive system, and how
to adapt rem edies to these diseases!

ALTHOUGH the great fatality of Pulmonary
Diseases, at this time shows that there are
particular cases that render still too applicable this
designation, approbia medicorum—the disgrace of
physicians—to this call of diseases; and that there
are stages in their progress, which having once been
reached, recovery is doubtful. Still no one should
despair. The writings of physicians, who have
given to these affections particular attention,abound
with many recorded cases of recovery when the
patient had reached a seeming hopeless stage of
the disease;
and there is at this time, a remedy
prepared in Philadelphia which has met with the
most triumphant and cheering success in the most
obstinate forms of Throat and Pulmonary Diseases
—so as to have obtained the sanction and employ
ment in the practice of many physicians.
Allusion is had
to Thompson's Compound Syrup
of Tar and Wood Naptha—the preparation of one,
who, having given to diseases of the Lungs and
their means of cure, the most careful and thorough
attention, presented to the public this great remedy.
The soothing and curative power of TAR has
often been observed in severe coughs, and Con
