THE present mode of doing business (we mean
the cunrr mama) is now carried to such an
extent, that it is not only attended with disaster and
- vexation to the cash and prompt solvent buyer, by
increasing the number of his competitors, but, un
less every precaution and the utmost prudence is
observed, the wholesale dealer is involved in diffi
culty, and two-thirds, at least, who embark in the
credit business, are reducad by bad debts to abso
lute bankruptcy.
With this truth before us, we have determined to
change our system of business, by selling only for
cash, or on very short time for prompt payment; and
beg leave to call the attention of purchasers 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
boring 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 npon
the cost will not include losses by bad debts and
lawyer's 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 other houses to sell him cheaper than they
have ever done before. To conclude, we promise
it shall be our constant aim, in our intercourse
with the retail dealer, not only to make it his inter
est to purchase of us, but, by pursuing a course of
strict integrity, to merit his confidence, custom and
influence.

PHILADELPHIA MEDICAL HOUSEEstab-
I fished 1.5 years ago" by Dii. RINKELIN. The
oldest, surest and best hand to cure all forms of
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 square-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 iu when
by hi self in solitude, growing up with the boy to
manhood; few of those who indulge in this perni
cious practice are aware of the Consequences until
they find the nervous system shattered, feel strange
and unaccountable feelings, vague fears in themind.
The individual becomes feeble, lie is linable 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 Solitary rice
Is continued, the procreative power is destroyed,
and marriage rendered impossible, a long 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 VietztV
Be concious of the cause of his decay, and quit it,
he suffers under those terrible nocturnal and invol
untary emissions, which 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
unfruitfl, 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,
becoming 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
plarles himself under DR. KINKF.LIN , S treatment,
may religiously confide in his honor as a gentle
man, and . in whose bosom will be Mrever locked
the secret of the patient.
Thonsands have been restored to health, from
the devastations of those territtic maladies by Dit.

NOTICE TO MINERS AND PRE-EMPTION
All persons who were, at the passage of the act
of Ist March, 1847, in possession, by actual occu
pancy, of any portion'of the mineral lands embraced
in this proclamation, under authority of a lease or
written permit from the Secretary of War, for the
purpose of mining thereon, and all persons who
shall be in possession, by actual occupancy, of a
mine or mines actually discovered before the Ist of
March, 1847, as set forth in the act of Ist March,
184/, above mentioned, are authorized to enter and
purchase the same at the price, on the terms and
conditions, and to the extent prescribed by that
act, and no less, at any time before the day fixed
for the commencement of the sale of those mineral
lands, 011 making proof of possession and occu
pancy, and of compliance with those terms, to the
register and receiver of the land office, subject to
an appeal to the Secretary of the Treasury; and all
persons entitled to the right of pre-emption to any
of the agricultural lands embraced in this procla
mation, are required to establish the same to the
satisfaction of the register and receiver, and make
payment therefore as soon as practicable after seeing
this notice, and before the day appointed for the
commencement of the public sale of the lands om_
bracing the tract claimed, otherwise such pre-emp-
lion claim will be forfeited.
The certificate of the mineral agent at Sault Ste.
Marie, that persons holding under leases or permits,
or those in the occupancy of a mine or mines, have
paid up the per centum of rents required by the
act above mentioned, will be conclusive on that
point.
Persons occupying under leases or permits, will
not be permitted to relinquish their rights under
that occupancy, and enter as settlers; and where
any such leases or permits may expire before the
day of sale, the rights granted to the holders thereof
will be regarded as reserving the lands covered
thereby from entry under any other right till the
day of sale, when they will be offered at
.public
sale as mineral lands.
RICHARD M. YOUNG, Commissioner
The "mineral lands" included in the foregoing
proclamation are chiefly situated between Lake
SuperiOr and Montreal River, and on Isle Royale,
in the northern peninsula of Michigan, and are
rendered immensely valuable by the exhaustless
mines of copper and other ores found therein.
A considerable number of those mines have
already been discovered in the trap ranges, within
a few miles of Lake Superior; and from the geo
logical character of the country, and the explora
tions already made, it cannot be doubted that others
equally, if not more valuable, will be found through
out this whole "mineral region."
In some of the mines now worked, copper is
found almost pure; and, in fact, most of the native
copper and ores yield a greater per tentage than
any other yet discovered in the world. Silver is
also found in considerable quantities.
All the necessary materials for the construction
of furnaces, and fuel of smelting, are found in
abundance in the immediate neighborhood of the
mineral.
The climate in winter, though cold, does not in
terrupt the operations of the miners; in fact, that
season is considered the most favorable k)r their
operations.
The proximity of these mineral lands to the shore
of Lake Superior, on which are several safe and
excellent harbors, and the water communication
therefrom, by the Sault Ste. Marie, Lakes Huron,
Erie, &c., furnish ready means of transporting the
products of these lands to the principal markets of
the United States. at a very trilling cost.
It likewise appears from the reports to this office,
that the agricultural lands are of a fair quality, pro
ducing the usual culinary vegetables and grass in
abundance, and, when properly tilled, they have
been found favorable for grain crops also; and for
all these products, a fair price and good market
will be found at the mines.
Timber—such as white and yellow pine„.sugar
maple, yellow birch, &c.—is, in many places, very
abundant, and by its thrifty growth gives evidence
of the richness of the soil.
Maps, showing the localities of the mines and
other valuable information relating thereto, de
rived from the geological survey, &c., which can
not be embraced in this brief notice, will be pre
pared and deposited in the land office at the Sault
Ste. Marie, for inspection, as early as practicable,
before the commencement of the public sales.

TO THE PUBLIC
The lands embraced in the above proclamation
are located principally on and adjacent to the Mis
sissippi and St. Croix Rivers. Those designated
as mineral are extremely valuable ; because in ad
dition to the copper and other ores found in them,
they are well watered, and have ready access to
market, either to the South, by the Mississippi
river, or to the East, by the way of the lakes, and
the several lines of communication that connect
therewith.
Valuable timber and all other necessary requi
sites for building and smelting, are found in great
abundance, and of the finest quality. The climate
is healthy and pleasant—the cold being rarely more
intense than in the northern part of New York—
and many of the lands are exceedingly fertile, pro
ducing all the grains and. vegetables that can be
raised in Massachusetts or northern New York.
Maps showing the localities of the mines, and
other valuable information relating thereto, derived
from the geological survey, &c., which cannot be
embraced in this brief notice, will be prepared and
deposited in the land oflice at St. Croix for inspec
tion as early as practicable before the commence
ment of the public sales.
NOTICE TO PRE EMPTION CLAIMANTS
Every person entitled to the right of pre-emption
to any of the lands within the townships and parts
of townships above enumerated, is required to es
tablish the same to the satisfaction of the register

WHEREAS, I, Jacob Weitzel, of the city of
Lancaster, coppersmith, have received by let
ters Patent; recorded in the Patent office in the city
of Washington, certain useful improvements in the
construction of Stills, which improvements consist
of an additional tub, called a de f :ling tub, which
is placed partly above the still, lr which tub the
doubler is inclosed, the beer which is pumped into
the upper tub passes down by a plug pipe into the
doubling tub, where it'is brought to a boiling state
before it is let into the still, which pipe is opened
.or stopped when requisite by means of a plug made
of wood, copper, or any other material.
What I claim as my improvements are the above
described doubling tub and the plug by which the
beer passes from one tub to 6:: other, or from the
tub into the still.
Having received information , amounting to proof,
that my patent for the above described improve
ments has been violated by several distillers in this
county and in various other places, I hereby give
notice, that unless those persons who have made
use of my invention, or have it now in use, without
being authorized by me, come forward and make
full reparation for having infringed my patent right,
on or before the first day of March next, suit will
be instituted against all and every such person or
persons. JACOB WEITZEL.
