~-jl -AEROLOGY-.—'The xelebrated Dr: C. W.‘ Ro-
J\ back, Professor of - Astrology, Astronomy,
Phrenology and Geomancy,'combined with Conju
ration," from Sweden office No 71 Locust Street.
$25,000 having been won by my numerous friends
on the late Presidential Election, should convince
those skeptical persons who talk of failure, tha* n<>
such word as fail is or has been known by the e ™j“
nent and distinguished Astrologer, C. W. ROBACK,
who, during his experience of over a" quarter of a
century, during which time be has given advice,
and employed the wonderful powers which he only
is the possessor of in this country, having been born
with this wonderful, most powerful science. Who
can doubt that we are not under the influence ot
destiny, and governed by the reciprocal influence,
of the* celestial, terrestrial, and the astronomical
systems, whose mutual relation to each other once
disturb, and will it not destroy the unison of action?
Do you doubt predestination? then why not every
man gain the celebrity of General Ta,lor, Darnel
Webster, or a Henry Clay! and yet there are some
who pro foolish enough to doubt that a man may be
born with the power to see into future events, bnch
should not condemn till they have called to seethe
seventh son of the seventh son, whose advantages
from travelling have given him more experience
than all the other astrologers, male or lemale, id
ihe United Sates.
How can it'be possible that the destiny .of man
should be governed by the mere shuffling of a pack
of cards? and yet there are thousands who allow
themselveß, with open mouths, to swallow the
greasy words of some old woman, whose true skill
consists in filling them with that are more
for the digestion of others, who credulous, yet more
scientific. It is such that bring'discredit on a pro
fession that has been acknowledged to be a science
of the highest order, from time immemorial; and it
is the only profession that has holy authority to sus
tain it. The high respect which General Taylor
and the following gentlemen had for Astrology, is
shown by his letter for his nativity, of the 10th oi
February, 1846, to the subscriber, in which hepre
dicted all his victories, and named the places ol the
late war with Mexico; he also predicted that he
would be elected President of the United Stale?,
and also foretold that he would notlive but a short
time after his election, which prediction has been
filled to the very letter.
In addition to his power to foresee future events,
he has the.power to give such information as will
effectually redeem such as are given to the free use
i of the bottle. lie is also capable of curing diseases
heretofore considered incurable in this country by
the ordinary medicines, and wishes all to give b* m
a call who have been given up by their physicians
and wish to be cured. He will warrant a cure in
all cases, and will make no charge, except fbr the
conjurations he shall make use of in his office. He
is oltcn*asked what a nativity is: he answers, ac
cording to Geomancy, one of the seven points in
the pcience of-Astrology, that it is a Horoscope o(
the future events of a persons’s,life, carefully cal
culated and transcribed on paper, containing an I
account of all the lucky and unlucky days in’the j
months aud years of.the person’s life for whom it is
cast; by which means thousands in this country .and
elsewhere have been prevented from misfortunes
that had been hidden in the womb of futurity, by
relerring to their Nativity before entering on any
speculation of business or pleasure. It should be
in the hands of every one as their Almanac of life.
A Nativity of an individual can only forwarn the
possessor of troubles that are in future.for him; those
who are involved in present difficulties of any kind
must wait on the subscriber in person or by letter,
who is prepared to exert his influence for their im
mediate benefit. He is ready to use his influence
to loretell the result of lawsuits, and all undertak
ings in which there is a risk involved; he also makes
use of his power lor the restoration of stolen or losi
property, which he has used lor the advantage of
thousands in this city and elsewhere.
. OCT He can be consulted With at his Office, or by
letter, if prepaid, and he is prepared to make use
of his power on any of the following topics; busi
nesss'of all descriptions, travelling by sea;
courtships; advice given for their successful accom
plishment; speculating in stocks, merchandise, or
real estate;* the recovering ol legacies in dispute;
the purchasing ol tickets, and the safety of ships at
Sea. He also has had the honor of receiving a cer-
tificaie from the Hon. C.John Bernadottc, formerly
King of Sweden, which it will give him great pleas
ure in showing to those who favor him with a call;
he also offers his services, respecting Health,
Wealth, and Marriage, Love Affairs, Journtys,
Lawsuits, difficulty in Business, Fraud, Sickness
and Death, Past, Present, and Future Events, and
all the coucerns of life, and invites all to call who
are afllicted, corporally or mentally.
