llow to be Beautiful.
Venus, the embodiment of female beauty, was
anciently represented as having arisen from the sea.
This is another way of saying that cleanliness is
necessary to beauty. A hand lelt unwashed for a
iew days becomes ugly and repulsive. If one can
conceive of a face left unwashed for a week, we
must imagine very far from beautiful. A freshly
washed face looks more Handsome than at any
other time. But is in vain to wash the few square
inches of skin we have in sight, if the vastly larger
area we cover with our dress is left from day to
day, and -week to week, uncleaned frpm its con
stantly accumulating impurities. The health, and
consequently the clearness and freshness of the
skin, require that every square inch, nay every pore,
should be in the best condition, and that cannot be
if a single pore is left clogged with the impure
matter which is continually passing from the sys
tem. But the action of water upon the skin, es
pecially cold water, seems to be more important
even than its first office of cleansing it from impur
ities. The rain bathes the lovely rose bush, washes
it from the dust, but it also refreshes and enlivens
every leaf and petal. So. a cold bath not only
cleanses the skin from its impurities, but gives it
tone, strength and smoothness, like a rose just
washed by a shower.
Bathing, in all countries where beauty has been
esteemed, and health is the fountain of beauty, has
been considered the first necessity of life. I have
knowui ladies, jaded, diseased, miserable, and looking
as badly as they felt, becomq fresh, rosy, bright,
and healthy, after a few months of systematic bath
ing—a thorough purification and renovation of the
skin, with a consequent increase of vivacity,
strength, grace of action and expression. This is
such'a remarkable effect of the water cure, which
consists mainly in a certain regular and prescribed
series of bathings, that ladies w’ould resort to it lor
the improvement of their looks it the recovery of
their health were not a necessary, concomitant.
* V :
IHiss Bremer on Married Men.
The Boston Atlas says that Benedicks should
make the accomplished Swede their best bow, and
give her a piece of plate, in token ol their thanks
for the following hearty testimony in their favor as
a class. Moreover, the# should all join fervently
in the wish that her tinie may come soon, to enjoy
what she appears so soulfully to appreciate, the
value of a good married man. She 'says:
“I confess, then, that I never find, and never have
found, a man more loveable, more captivating, than
when ho is a married man; that is to say, a good
married man. A mail -is never so handsome, never
so perfect, \h my eyes, us when he is married—as
when he is a husband, and the father of a family—
supporting in his manly arms wife and children';
and the whole domestic circle, which, in his en
trance into the married"*state, closed around him,
and constitute a part of his home and his world.—
He is not merely ennobled by this position, but he
is actually beautified by it. Then he appears to
me as the crown of creation; and it is only such a
man as this who is dangerous to me, and with
whom lam inclined to fall in love. But then pro
priety forbids it. * And Moses and all European
legislators declare it to be sinful, and all married
women would consider it a sacred duty, to stone
me. Nevertheless I cannot prevent the thing. It
is so and cannot be otherwise ; and my only hope
of appeasing those who are excited against me is
my further confession, that no love affects me so
pleasantly; the contemplation of no happiness
•makes so happy, as that between married people.—
It seems to me that I, living unmarried, or mate
less, have with that happiness little to do; hut it is
so, and it always was so.”
Reduction of Tolls on the Public WonKS.
As was anticipated in the notice of the Harrisburg
Keystone of the meeting between the Pennsylvania
Canal Commissioners and the agents of the Trans
portation Lines, the wishes of the latter were acce*
ded to, and an additional reduction oi tolls granted
by the board. In consequence the transporters
have reduced the rate of freight, and are now car
rying goods to Pittsburg at 75 cents per hundred.-
The; Keystone adds:
“ Whether they can carry at this low rate suc
cessfully, anil whether the present low rates of
. .tolls can be maintained, will of course depend on
the increased amount of business which may lesnlt
* from the reduction. There can be no doubt that
. a.Jow rate of tolls and freight, calculated to bring
a large amount of business, is the correct policy;
’-but there is a limit at which .even an increase of
business ceases to be durable, unless accompanied
by an increased compensation. The extremely low
rates at which the New York lines are now carry
ing, are not likely t(&be permanent; it is a spas^ 7
modic eflbct to draw the trade from .other routes,
with the hope of retaining it hereafter upon more
favorable terms; if our transporters and She Penn
sylvania Railroad Company can defeat the present
movement, there will be little fear of their being
able to compete successfully with their rivals here,
after. The completion of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, and of the road to avoid the planes on the
Portage Road, will so far diminish the time and
expense of transportation, and increase the capacity
of our public works and the facilities of the trans
porters, as with the natural advantages possessed
by the route through Pennsylvania, to give , that
route a decided advantage over all others, and
enable those who use it to compete successfully for
the carrying trade of the great West”
Opposed to Matrimony.
[ Yankee scene .from the Drama of “ The N. Y. Firc~
men , or the Heiress of Bond Sheet f‘
“ Is your family opposed to matrimony?'’
“ Wal, no, I rather guess not seein’ as how my
mother has had four, husbands, and stands a pretty
smart chance of havin’ another.”
“ Four Husbands! Is it possible?’^
“0, yes. You 6ee, my mother’s christened name
was Mehitable Sheet, an’ dad s name w’as Jacob
Press; an’ when they got married the printers said
it w’as puttin’ the sheets to press. When I was
born they said I was the first edition. An’ you see
mother used to be the tarnalist critter for evenin’
meetings. She used to go out pretty late every
night, and dad was afraid I’d get in the same habit,
•so he used to put me to bed at early candle lighr,
cover me over with a pillar an’ put me to sleep
with a hoot jack. Wal, dad had to get up every
night to let mother in ; if he didn’t get down and
open the door pretty darned quick when she cum,
he’d ketch particular thunder, so dad used to sleep
w’ith bis head out of the w’inder, so’s to wake up
quick, an’ one night he got his head a little too far
out an’he slipped out altogether; and down dad
cum, caflumux right on the pavement, an’ smashed
into ten thousand pieces.”
“ What! was he kilted by the fall?
“ Wal no, not exactly by the fall. I rather kind
er sorter guess as how .it was the sudden fetch up
on the pavement that killed - him. But mam she
cum hum, an’ found him lyin’ thar, and she had
him swept up together, an’ putin a coffin an’ had
a hole dug in the burying ground, an’ had put in
an’ buried, up, an’ had oak plank put up
to his head and had it white washed all over for a
tombstone.”
“ So your mother was left a poor lone widow.”
“Wal, yes, but she didn’t mind that much jit
wasn’t long before she married Hide because he
was just dad’6 size, and she wanted him to wear
out dad’s old clothes. Wal, the way old Hide used
to hide me was a ’ caution to my hide. Hide had
a ieetle the toughest hide of any hide except a
bull’s hide, and the way Hide used to hide away
liquor in his hide was a caution even' to a bulls
hide. Wal, one cold day, old Hide got his hide so
tarnal full o’ whiskey that he pitched head first
into a snow bank where he stuck an’ friz to death.
So mam had him pulled out, an’ laid out, an’ then
had another hole • dug in the buryin’ ground, an’
had him buried, an’ than she had another white
oak plank put up at his head an’ whitewashed all
over an’—”
. “So your mother was again a widow.”
“ 0, yes, but I guess she didn’t lay awake nights
long, to think about it, for in about three weeks
she married John Strong—an’ he was the strongest
headed cuss you ever did see. He‘ went a fish in’
the other day, an’ got drowned, and he was so tar
nal strong headed, I’ll be. darned to darnation if he
didn't float right again the currenf, and they found
hirn three mjles up stream, an’ it took three yoke
o’ cattle to haul him out. Wal, mam had him
buried along side o’ tu.ther t\yo, an’ had a white oak.
plank put up at his head, an’ white washed all over
nice, an’ so there’s three on’ em, all in a row—”
“ And your mother was a widow for the third
time.” a
“Yes, but mam didn’t seem to mind it a tarnal
sight. The next feller she married was Jacob
Hayse, and-the way mam d&es make him haze is
a caution, now I tell ye. If he does any a leetle
out o’ the way, mam makes him take "a bucket
and whitebrush and go right , up to the burying
ground, and whitewash the three oak planks, jest
to let him know what he may come to when she’s
planted him in the same row ; an’ got married to
the fifth husband. So you see my family arn’t a
’tarnal sight opposed to a dose of matrimony.”
The Island of Cuba.
The late accounts of a revolution in this Island
have rendered it quite an object of public interest
in this country. It would, therefore, seem desira
ble that *the resources and position ol the Island
should be properly understood. It is'situated be
tween 23 deg. 12 min. and 19 deg. 43 min. N. lat.
Its length is 770 English miles —its breadth varies
25 to 90 miles, and it measures on its surface,
about 4000 English square mifiis. Of 24 millions
acres comprising the surface ol the island, only
two millions are under cultivation. Its position is
admirable, being within a few days sail of the At
lantic ports of the United States, and two and a half
days by steam from New Orleans. The eastern
part is very mountainous, and some ol the peaks,
are from 7000 to $OOO feet above the level of the
sea. The valleys in the eastern department are
exceedingly picturesque and fruitful. The princi
pal agricultural productions are, the sugar cane
coffee, molasses, honey, rum, tobacco, wax, rice,
cocoa, cotton, together "with all kinds of tropical
fruits, sweet potatoes, yams, arrowroot, cocoa, In
dian corn, castor oil, and different kinds ol woods,
such as cedar, mahogany, lancewood, and other
hard wood used by turners, etc. In 1841, the
number of sugar estates on the island amounted to
i,235, upon which were'employed, 138,701 per
sons. Wax is produced to the amount of about
SOOjOOO pounds, and honey to the amount of two
million gallons. Cattle to the number of about
900,00 head are owned in the island, and there
are about 200,000 horses, and 50,000 mules.
In minerals, the island is very rich; of copper
mines no less than 114 mines have been discovered
in the island, 47 in the Eastern Department, 18 in
the Cential and 45 in Western. The mine at
Cobre, worked by an English company, has ship
ped from 27, to 43,000 tons per annum. Coal,
•iron, silver, and amianthus have been discovered.—
The revenue of the island, is about $12,000,000. —
The population is about 1,200,000. Cuba was
discovered by Columbus on the 27th of October,,
1492, when the island bad an Indian population of
about 200,000. Only a few half breeds now re
main in the Eastern Department. In 1519, Ha- 1
. vanawas founded. The English took it in 1762,
and gave it up again in 17G3, in exchange for other
possession and advantages.
The late advices indicaf£ that the fires of liberty
have been lighted in the fruitful vales of this queen
of the Antilles, —not by* a band of adventurers
from the United States, but by the hands ot her
-own citizens who alone can render its glories per
manent, and who seem now aware that “ those
who would be' free themselves must strike the
blo'w.”

Important to Farmers & Tliresh
ing Machine Makers.
THE subscriber, respectfully informs the public
that-he has lately completed a TRIPLE POW
ER INTERNAL GEARED HORSE POWER,
which outrivals any oilier iu use. It is made en
tirely of Iron, both Frame and Gearing. The Jour
nals are Cast-Steel—its weight is 600 lbs.’ On trial :
it has proved itself capable of performing from 50
to 100 per cent, more work than other Powers with
the same labor of the team. It is warranted to
hold 8 horses.
I have also completed a combined THRESHER
AND CLEANER, which is capable of Threshing
and Cleaning from 300 to 500 bushels of wheat per
day, with from 6 to 8 Horses, and an equal number
of hands. 4 horses can thresh with it from 100 to
200 bushels per day of wheat, and. 400 to 500 of
oats. It is very convenient for those who follow
Threshing, and for two or more farmers to own in
company; it is more convenient to move than any
machine in use. The Machine stands on the wag
on while threshing—the Power is loaded on the
same wagon in moving—two horses are sufficient
to move it; it will save enough labor in threaliing
2000 bushels to pay its extra cost. It will thresh
in the field or by a stack as conveniently as in a barn.
The cylinder and concave can readily be adjusted
so as to thresh with equal facility both tough and dry
grain. It is free from the complication and liability
to get out of order of. other machines of ihe kind,
and of less cost—price $lOO,OO.

HORSES MADE SOUND BY THE
| Horse! Owner’s Secret,
Being a new and certain remedy for the speedy
, CURE OF HEAVES,
By sia James Lyndonton, Principal Farrier to his
Royal Highness Prince Albert.
THE great discovery contained in this little work
procured Sir James his Baronetoy. It is really
its weight in goldjio all who own or use Horses; It
prescribes a Certain and Positive Cure for the
Heaves, which any : person can prepare. The rem
edy is better and cheaper than any advertised Heave
Powder, and is perfectly safe, as any can know who
tries it. Horse owners know that many a valuable
horse losses half his price by this prevalent disease.
The remedy prescribed in this work will cure him
and increase his market value, besides relieving
.the poor beast of a horrible complaint, similar to
the Asthma in a man. The public can depend on
this work: it.isjno catchpenny humbug. The
articles prescribed by Sir James are all cheap and
can be had at any store. To prevent imposition
the work will be sfent in sealed envelopes. English
price, four shillings and three pence sterling.—
American price, !$ I per copy. Persons ordering
Sir James’ work nre expected to confine his in
struction to their own animals. It will.be sent to
none others. Address, post paid,

DR. JOHNSTON,
'Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduate from one of the most eminent Col
leges of the United States'and the greater part of
whose jife has been spent in the Hospitals of Lon
don, Paris, Philadelphia; and elsewhere, hasaffect
ed some of the. most astonishing cures that were
ever known. Many troubled with ringing in the
ears and head when asleep,great nervousness, being
alarmed at sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with
frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind, were cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by private and improper indulgences,
•.hat secret and solitary habits, which ruin both
body and mind,: unfitting them for either business
or society.
These are some of the sad and melancholy ef
fects produced by early habits of youth, viz:
Weakness of the back and limbs, Pains in the head,
Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal
pitation .of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, dec.
Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded: Loss of Memory, Conlusion
of jdeas, Depression of Spirits, Evil' of Forebo
ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity,. &c., are some of the evils pro
duced*
NERVOUS DEBILITY.
Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arises from the destruct
ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so faiul to
the healthful existence of man, and it is the young
who are the most apt to become its Victims from
an ignorance of the dangers to which they subject
themselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis
led with respect to the cause or source of disease
in their sons and wards. Alas! how often do they
ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious
Mental effects, 6uch as loss of Memory, Depres
sion of Spirits or peculiar fits of Melancholy, when
the truth is they have been caused by indulging
Pernicious but alluring practices, destructive to
both Body and Mind. Thus ore swept from ex
istence thousands who might have been of use to
their country, a pleasure to their orna
ment to society.
WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS
immediately cured and lull vigor restored.
Oh, how happy hav» hundreds of misguided
youths been made, wUoytave been-suddenly resto
red to health from the devastations of those terrific
maladies which result from indiscretion. Such
persons, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
should reflect that a sound mind and body ore the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial,
happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey thro’
life becomes a weary pilgrimage ; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view ; tho mind becomes
shadowed with despair, and filled with the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be
comes blighted with our own. Let no false delica
cy prevent you, but apply immediately.
He who places himself under the care of Dr.
JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon
or as a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon his
skill as a Physician
TO STRANGERS.'
The many thousands cured at this institution
within the last ten years, and the numerous im
portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr. J-,
witnessed by the Reporters of the papers and ma
ny other persons, notices of which have appeared
again and again before the public, is a sufficient
guarantee that the afflicted will find a skilful and
honorable physician.
N. B.—Shun the numerous pretenders who call
themselves Physicians, and apply to DR. JOHN
