' : - Vegetable Serp&it, -,
According to s,oioc Italian journals, a
new organized bcinbag been discovcrd
in the interior of Africa, which seems to
iorm an immeuiato link between vegeta
ble and animal life. This singular pro
duction of nature has the bhape of a spot
ted serpent. It drags itself along the
ground; instead of a head, has a flower
duapeu like a bell, which contains a vis
cous liquid. Flies and other insects, at
tracted by the smell of the juice, enter
iuto the flower, where they arc caught by
the adhesive matter. Tho flower then
closes. and remains shut till the prisoners.
are nruised and transtormed into chyle.
The indigestible portions, such as the
head and wings, are thrown out by two
aspired openings. The vegetable serpent
-ias a skin resembling leaves, white and
soft flesh, and instead of a bony skeleton,
a cartilaginous frame filled with yellow
matter. The natives consider it deli
cious food.

A Cure for Consumption, Scrofula, Coughs
Colds, Asthma, Bronchitis, Spilling of
Bloody and all complaints of the
Lungs.
The Proprietor has succeeded (from direc
tions of Professor Stone) in combining the
Oil and Lime so perfectly, that the taste of
the Uu, which la naueseous to persons gen
erally, is entirely overcome, and it can be ta
ken by the most delicate females with pleas
ure. And as regards the benefit of this ar
ticle over the pure oil, the following case, by
f rof. btonc, is sufficient to convince the most
skeptical. The young lady was 24 years of
age.
"Her disease was one of unmixed phthisis,
which had been expected to terminate in the
course of d" few months, fatally. The upper
part ol both her lungs was filled with tuber
cles ; and in some places were beginning to
soiten, 1 he case was evidently a bad one.
The treatment of cod liver oil was at first
used, but without marked imDrovement. The
unospnaie ot lime wns then administered with
uie oil, and the result, as in the case of many
omen?, was soon apparent. The patient was
u.iuij guuing well.

this work, unlike the majority of thoso who
adveitiso to cur2 the diseases of which it

From. A Woodward, M. D.t of Penn. V
niversity, Philadelphia. It give3 me pleas
ure to add my testimony to the professional
ability of tho Author of tho " Medical Man
ual." Numerous, cases of Disease of tho
Genital Organs, some of them of longstand
mg, have come under my notice, in which
his skill has been manifest in restoring u
perfect health, in some causes where the
paiicnt has been considered beyond medi
cal aid. In tho treatment of Seminal weak
ness, or disarrangement of the functions
produced by self abuse or Excess of vene
ry, I do not know his superior in the pro
fession. I have been acquainted with the
Author some thirty years, and deem it no
moro than justice to him as well as kindness
to the unfortunate victim of early iiidiscru
tion, to recommend him as one in whose
professional skill and integrity they msy
safely confide themselves.
Alfhed Woodwaro, M. D.
" This is, without exception, the most
comprehensive and intelligible work pub
lished on tho class of diseases of which it
treats. Aoiding all technical terms, it ad-dre-ses
itself to the reasun of its readers.
It is free from all objectionable matter, and
no parent, however, tastidious, can object to
placing it in the hands of bis sons. Tho
author has devoted many years to the treat
ment of tho variouB complaints treated of,
and, with too little breath to pulT, and too
little presumption to impose, he has offered
to the world, at the meiely nominal price of
25 cents, the fruit of some twenty yeaia'
most successful practice.'' Herald.
I No teacher or parent should be without
the knowledge imparted in this invaluable
work. It would save years of pain, mortifi
cation and sorrow to the youth under their
charge." People's Advocate.
A Presbyterian clergyman in Ohio, writ
ing of " Hunter's Medical Manual" says : -Thousands
upon thousands of our vouth. by
evil example and influence of the passions,
hae been led into the habit of self pollution,
without realuing the sin and learful conse
quences upon tliemselves and their posteri
ty. The constitutions tif thousands who
arc raising families have been enfeebled, if
not broken down, and they do not know tho
cause or the cure. Anything that can bu
done so to erilighten and influence the pub
lic mind as to cheek, and ultimately to re
move this wide-spread source of human
wrctchodness, would confer the greatest
blessing next to the religion of Jesus Christ,
on the present and coming generation In
temperance (or me use ot intoxicating
drinks) though it has slain thousands upon
thousands, is not a greater scourge to tho
human race. Accept my thanks on behalf
of the afflicted, and, believe nle. youf co
worker in the good work y uu crd &o active
ly ongaged in."

Landlords will find it greatly to their ad
vantage to deal with me. I have no hired
agents to sell and distribute liquors for mem
great expense, which must be paid for by the
consumer. Those dealing with me I intend
shall be satisfied with the article they get, as
well a6 the price, and whenever they are nolr
I will be pleat'ed to have them return, the
liquor, and make the fact known, for I in-,
end to make it a permanent business, and
can only do so by dealing honorably. Alt
orders sent me, by stage drivers or others, will
be promptly attended to, the same as though
the person was present dealing for himself.
