' ' • firm of Edwin Hall & Co.„ofSecond street,

' " Y. *
, 'arid every ' ' residentof - this - city' ..:is
• ' •-•
familiar -with the energy 'and' • enterprise
• whiCh .have - marked : their .- onward
:progress in the business world, At .No. 26
" Routh Second street they' ha** 'been
in business some fourteen years, but
• .
the extent of their eustom has :been so
- -- - - great that. • they have been ' forced to
. .' 'enlarge their borders by - .purchasing
the extensive property adjoining their store
..
os. the south, running through from
•. • . ' - •••i nd• to Strawberry street. With an -nil
' •-*. is ts,rd of celerity -they have changed these
- inoemises into one of the most beautiful and
commodious dry-goods stores in the coon
try.. It is, to all intents a new , edifice, em
bracing
every requisite for conductin g the
silk and cry goods business, in. both its
wholesale and • retail departments, with the
• ; greatest facility to themselvei and comfort
to their customers. As a business improve
ment on this busy thoroughfare it is worthy
of' notice as' there are few, it.any, more
beautiful establiß ments in our city.. Its
magnificent crystal front, rendered doubly
attractive by the elegant display of new
spring dress goods which adorn it, forms a
good index to the character' of the house.
The arrangement of the counters, shelving,
stairs, sky-lights and -every other essential
is, in some respeets; ; An improvement- on
anything'that . we - have seen- in this city or
elsewhere. ' - 1 The whole bUilding is superbly
lighted by means of two immense 'sky
lights, so graduated and arranged as to dis
tribute the light equally in all. parts of the
house, and produce a very striking effect.
A view is had, on the visitor entering the
Second street door, of the rearrooms on the
second and third floors, and the sky-lights,
being richly ornamented with carved work,
giVe the whole a very pleasing and. pic
turesque appearance. No less - taste has
been displayed in the painting and, the
paper, which will be regarded as in excel
lent harmony by the most fastidious eye.
The ground floor of the establishment
(where, on and after to-morrow, the taste
and fashion of our city, will doubtless be
attracted in the same bewildering crowds
which have for years characterized the store
of this popular firm) is devoted to the fol.
lowing classes of goods: hosiery, embroide
ries, white goods, French, English, and
American prints, delaines, dress goods of
all the newest fabrics that are brought out,
both in Europe and America, and an almost
endless line of silks. In the latter their
stock is certainly not surpassed, if it is
equalled, by any other in Philadelphia. We
may notice in this connection two important
points: First, that Messrs. Edwin Hall &
Co., are large importers, which secures
to their customers decided advantages in
the matter of prices; and Secondly, that the
superiority of taste in the selection of colors
and styles displayed by Mr. Hall is pro
\ verbial.
The stock of goods displayed on this floor
presents such a galaxy of new and beauti
ful designs as should make any man of
taste, liberal views in such matters, and the
requisite amount of cash to gratify them,
wish that he had at least one wife to clothe
and half a score of daughters. In examin
ing the various appointments in this de
partment of the house we discoVered a
novel contrivance, which the ladies have
long felt the need of; we allude to the" Dark•
Room"—a room from which all daylight is
excluded, where silks and - other dress
fabrics. can be examined by gas, thus avoid
ing the risk of selecting . colors ' and shades
which ' deteriorate under the teat of . the
chandelier.
.
, FroM the "ground floor , we ascend by
,sasy flight of stairs to the second . - story,•
- where . we find aSeries of unseparated rooms,
- occupied as folloWs : The front is the Cloak
..:-p.. - Boom, their bitainess in this • department
' being very extensive; the middle room is
-aged entirely for the sale of Shawls of every
.... description, and • ladies' skirts, which we
- : may remark has become an immense item
in trade; back of this, extending .to Straw
berry street, is the Wholesale' Si l k • Room, •
where merchants will find a stock admir
ably adapted by its richness and . variety
to the wants of the fashionable in all parts
of the. country. The third floor of the edifice
is occupied exclusively as their Wholesale
Department, there being an entrance to .it
from Strawberry street. The basement of
the building is used for exhibitingblankets,
Counterpanes, sheetings and shirtings by _
the piece, and a full line of what- is com-1 ,
• prehended under the head of house-furnish
, • ;
~. inggoods.
' . iiii•-..,, kitlivill not surprise any intelligent Phila
delphian to learn that this active firm sold
nearly. three-quarters of a million of dollars
worth of goods last year, being a rise of
more than half a Million dollars over their
' . sales. fourteen years ago. They employ
about fifty persons, many of them being
nolitv and affable ladies who attend the
aetailcounters. • We may mention in this
• • ...Asinection that the most artistic builders,
painters, glaziers, gas fitters, paper
hangers, &c., were employed in the fitting
tip •of the store; the distinguished firm of
Cornelius & Baker supplying the gas fix
tures, chandeliers, &,c. The building was
*splendidly illuminated last evening and
looked truly beautiful. To-morrow it will
loe throWn open to the public, and it is
. .... _.
probable that the new store will then be
inaugurated in the presence of a brilliant
End admiring concourse of visitors.

A LA_RGE FUNERAL, The funeral of
Isaac L. Lowe, Esq., late Surrogate of Cam
den county, was, yesterday afternoon, at
tended by a vast concourse of people, and
the services in the Broadway M. E. Church,
on the occasion, were solemn and appropri
ate. During the last year or two the de
ceased had lost several members of his
family. He was a man of unyielding pa
triotism, and gave several sons to the coun
try's cause, who fell in defending the na
tional flag. The remains of the deceased
were followed to the grave by members of
the Winslow Lodge, No. 40, of Winslow; the
Wildey Lodge, No. 19, 0. 0. F., of Cam
dem, and a very large concourse of relatives
and friends.
STREET BEGGING.—Street begging has
become quite a business in Camden. In
South Ward individuals employ numbers
of small and large children, and send them
out from house to house to beg, and by this
means receive considerable profit. Often
when the persons applied to for assistance
offer to pay the applicants if they will do a
little job of work, they turn up their noses
indignantly and reply that they can make
more by begging. Sach persons should be
compelled to go to work or to the House of
Refuge.
LODGERS.—The station house is crowded
every night and part of the day with home
less and indigent individuals, some of whom
are robust and healthy, sufficiently able to
peiform the most necessary kinds of work
for a livelihood. Yet they saunter about
during working hours, going from door to
door begging, and often for the purpose of
surveying premises with a view to rob. This
thing has become an absolute nuisance, and
calls for an effective remedy.
SEVERELY SCALDED.—On Monday after
noon two men employed in the box manu
factory of Mr. Leonard Repshur, in Middle
Ward, were pretty severely scalded, in con
sequence of the drum-head to the boiler
giving out, and throwing the boiling water
over them.
HARD ICE.—The river yesterday, was full
of floating ice, much of which was large
boulders from the fresh water streams, blue
and exceedingly hard. Whenever the ferry
boats struck them, they broke the buckets
out of the wheels, consequently the boats
had to move cautiously and slowly.
ENOLOBRD.—The new Catholic Church on
Seventh and Market streets has been en
closed, and. the interior arrangements are
now being finished In a very substantial
and tasteful style.
NEW CHURCH AT BORDENToww. —A new

1 --NOTICT4IHR-Pin3LIC,
In the year 1846 . the, writer embarked in the Drug
Business In the city of Philadelphia, and while thus
engaged, made several experiments in regard to the
most desirable mode of preparing Fluid Extracts. Ify
efforts being successful—the articles being approved
and used by the Medical faculty—l was dm. of
placing them before the paolic, but hesitated ler some
timebefore concluding to resort to newspaper adver
. tieing, knowing of the preindices that existed in the
minds of many against using advertised Iliad/eines; but
through the advice of friends and those who had used
my preparations, this objection was overcome.
Commencing in a small way, after 18 years' exer
tions, the popularity of my articles has extended to all
parts of the Drifted States, and widely throughout fo
reign countileac—an hates in the face of much opposi
tion. Every mean been resorted to by unprinci
pled dealers since their merit and success have been
known—such as advertising larger bottles at less price,
censuring all other preparations, and even copying my
advertisements—but I am happy to state that out of
the many who have resorted to this, none have been
successfuL
The Science of Medicine, like the Doric column,
should stand sinzpie, pure and majestic. having fact
for its basis, induction for its pillar, and truth alone for
its capital.
I contend there is no business requiring these quali
fications more, as medicines are brought in contact
with Druggists everywhere. I am also well aware that
persons reason In this manner that which may benefit
one may be of no advantage to another! How mis
taken the idea!
A Blood Purifier for one is a Blood Purifier for all.
A Dint'. tic for one, a Diuretic for all.
A Narcotic for one, a Narcotic for all.
A Purgative for one, a Purgative for all.
Just as much sons wholesome food for one Is whole
some food for all, with no more difference than that
some constitutions require more than other., and that
persons in disease are given to despondency—expect
ing in a few days or weeks, and perhaps with a single
bottle of medicine, to be restored to health, if not to
youth and beauty. These persons - rarely recover,lack.
tug patience. They give nothing a fair trial, consid
ering a iew dollars expended for the benefit of their
health a waste of money. The same individuals may
have been years in breaking down their constitutions,
and have probably exiienaed thousands of dollars in
dress and dissipation, and though; nothing of it. Such
forget that GOOD ITRAT TB. IS TRUE WEALTH.
With upwards of 30,000 recommendatory letters and
unsolicited certificates, I have never resorted to their
publication. I do not do this, from the fact that they
are "Standard Preparations" not Patent Medicines),
but open to the inspection of all. The ingredienteare
not kept secret, ana are recommended only for those
diseases and accompanying symptoms for which their
ingredients are everywhere .recognised as Standard
Specifics.
ADVERTIBEDIENT
The Kidneys,
The kidneys are two In number, situated at the up
p,•r part or the loin, surrounded by tat and consisting
of three parts, viz..: Ihe Anterior, the Interior and the
Exterior.
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tissues or
veins, which serve as a deposit for the urine and con
vey it to the exterior. The exterior is a conductor
also, terminating in a single tube and milled the Ure
ter. The ureters are connected with the oLcider.
The bladder Is composed of various coverings or
te-sues. divided into parte, viz-: The Upper, the Lower.
the Nervous, ana the Mucous. The upper expels, the
kwer retains. Many have a desire to urinate without
toe ability, others urinate without toe ability to re
tain. This frequently occurs In children.
To cure these affections we must bring into action
the muscles, which are engaged in their various func
tions, If they are neglected, Gravel or Dropsy may
ensue.
The reader mast also be made aware, that however
slight may be the attack, It is sure to affect his bodily
health and mental powers; as our flesh and blood are

COIIDUCTOR
This sublime Opera ofthegreat Maestro is presented
after the most careful study and rehearsal, and now
fittriicts the largest audience uniformly of the entire
repptoire. The critic of the. Washington Intelligencer
remarks: "We were surprised by the grandeur, ro
mance, variety and sublimity of the music of this NV In
derfirj master-work of poetic melody, as distinguished
from the dramatic and descrip*lve in music. Every
chord in the human heart, every sentiment of inspira
tion in the soul, and much that is merely sensual and
gay In our natures, is played upon by Mozart in the
Flute,' which has somewhat the same resemb
lance to the severer work of this master, that the mile'
and spiritual 'Tempest' of Shakspeare bears to his
Shylock, Othello, or Macbeth. We farely float on the
wings of romance—we laugh and dance in a revel with
mir h itself—we tremble with the ecstacy of hope and
apprehension, and we are awed by the sublimity of de•
cotton, beneath the various effects of Mozart's inspira
tion in the opera.whichin a no mean degree illustrates
the noted odes of Dryden and Collins, in which those
po-ts have erected a monument to music that will
only perish with the art which they deify."
