A POSITIVE AND SPECIFIC REMEDY
For Diseases of the
BLADDER, KIDNEYS, GRAVEL,
AND DhOPoICAL SWELLINGS.
This Medicine increases the power of Diges
tion, and excites the ABSORBENT'S into heal
thy action, by which the WATERY or CAL
CEROUS depositions, and all UNNATURAL
ENLARGEMEN IS are reduced, as well as pain
and inflammation, and is good for MEN, WO
MEN or 01177 CHEN.
HEMBOLD' S EXTRACT BUCHU
FOR WEAKNESSES
Arising from Excesses, Habits -of Dissipation,
Early Indiscretion or Abuse.
ATTENDED WITH THE FOLLOWING 6TMPTOIdI3 :
Indisposition to Exer-Dryness of the Skin,
tion, Loss of Power,
Loss of Memory, Difficulty of Breathing,
Weak Nerves, Trembling,
Horror of Disease, Wakeirdneiss,
Dimness of Vision, Pain in the Back,
Universal Lassitude ofFiushing of the Body,
the Muscular System,Eruptions on the Face,
Hot Hands, Pallid Countenance.
These symptoms, if allowed to go on, which
this medicine invariably removes, soon follow
IMPOTENCY, FATUITY, EPILEPTIC FITS,
In one of which the patient may expire. Who
can say that they are not frequently followed
by those "direful diseases,"
INSANITY AND CONSUMPTION.
Many are aware of the cause of their suffer
ings, but none will confess. The records of the
Insane Asylums and the melancholy deaths by
Consumption, bear ample witness to the truth
of the assertion.
21IN CONSTITUTION, ONCE AFFECTED
WITH ORGANIC WEAKNESS,
Requires the aid of medicine to strengthen and
invigorate the system, which Helmbold's Ex
tract Buchn invariably does. A trial will con
vince the most skeptical.
FEMA.LES—FEISIALES—FEMALES,
n OLD OR YOUNG, SINGLE, MARRIED, OR
CONTEMPLATING MARRIAGE,
In many affections peculiar to females the
Extract Ruchu is unequalled by any other
remedy, as in Chlorosis or Retention, Irregu
larity, Painfulness, or suppression of the cus
tomary Evacuations, Ulcerated or Schirrons
state of the Uterus, Leucorrhea or Whites,
Sterility, and for all complain% incident to the
sex, whether arising from Indiscretion, Habits
of Dissipation or in the
DECLINE OR CHANGE OF LIFE.
NO FAMILY SHOULD BE WITHOUT IT.
Take no Balsam, Mercury,or Unpleasant Medi
cine ler Dnplpasapt and Dangerous Diseages.
EXTRACT BUCHU,
Cures Secret Diseases in all their stages; at lit
tle expense ; little or no change in diet ; no in
convenience and no exposure. It causes fre
quent desire, and gives strength to .Urinate,
thereby removing obstructions, preventing and
miring Strictures of the Urethra, allaying pain
and inflammation, so frequent in this class of
diseases, and expelling Poisonous, Diseased, and
Wornout Matter. Thousands upon thousands
who have been the victims of quacks, and who
have paid heavy fees to bo cured in a short
time, have found they were deceived, and that
the "Poison" has by the use of "powerful
Astringents," been dried up in the system, to
break out in an aggravated form, and perhaps
after marriage.
Use HEIAIBOLD'S EXTRACT BUCHU for
all Affections and Diseases of the Urinary Or
gans, whether existing in Male or Female, from
whatever cause originating, and no matter of
how long standing. Diseases of these Organs
require the aid of a Diuretic. HitIMBOLD'S
EXTRACT BUCHU is the Great Diuretic, - and
it is certain to have the desired effect in alt
Diseases for which it is recommended.
Blood—Blood—Blood. Helmbold's Highly
Concentrated Compound ELUID EXTRACT
SARSAPARILLA SYPHILIS. This is an affec
tion of the Blood, and attacks the Sexual Or
gans, Linings of the Nose, Ears, Throat, Wind
pipe, and other Mucus Surfaces, making its ap
pearance in the form of Ulcers. Helmbold's
Extract - Sarsaparilla, purifies the Blood, and
removes all Scaly Eruptions of the Skin, giving
to the Complexion a Clear and Healthy Color.
It being prepared expressly for this class of
complaints, its Blood-Purifying Properties are
preserved to a greater extent than any other
preparation of Sarsaparilla.

Especially, who have become the victims of
Solitary Vice, that dreadful • and destructive
habit which annually sweeps to an untimely

might otherwise have entranced listening Sen

This distressing affection—which renders life
miserable and marriage impossible—is the pen

Young persons are too apt to commit excesses
from not being aware of the dreadful conse

derstands the subject will pretend to deny that
the power of procreation is lost sooner by those
falling into improper habits than by the prd
dent. Besides being deprived the pleasures of
healthy offspring, the MosVserions and destruc

The system becomes deranged, the physical and
mental functions weakened, loss -of procreative
power, nervous irritability, dyspepsia, palpita

DR. JOHNSON, -
Member of the Royal College gr Surgeons, Lon
don, graduate from one of tre titost eminent
colleges in the 'United States, and the greater
part of whose life has been spent in the hospi
tals of London, Paris, Philadelphia and else
where, has effected some of the most astonishing
cures that were ever known ; many troubled
with ringing in the head and ears when asleep,
great nervousness, being alarmed at sudden
sounds, bashfulness, with frequent blushing,
attended sometimes with derangement of mind
were cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
These are some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by early habits of youth, viz
weakness of the back and limbs, pains in the
head, dimness of sight, loss of muscular power,
palpitation of the heart, dyspepsia; nervous
irritability, symptoms of consumption, &c.
lisarremr.—The fearful effects on the mind
are much to be dreaded—loss of memory, co a
fution of ideas, depression of spirits, evil fore
bodings, aversion to society, self distrust, love
of solitude, timidity, &c., are some of the evils
produced.
YOUNG MEN
Who have injured themselves by a certain
practice indulged in when alone, a habit fre
quently learned from evil companions, or at
school, the effects of which are nightly felt,
even when asleep, and if not cured renders
marriage impossible, and destroys both mind
and body, should apply immediately.
What a pity that a young man, the hope of
his country, the darling of hie parents, should
be snatched from all prospects and enjoyments
of life, by the consequence of deviating from
the path of nature and indulging in a certain
secret habit. Such persons WHIT, before contem
plating
MABBIAGE,
Reflect that a sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without these, the journey
through life becomes a weary pilgrimage : the
prospect hourly darkens to the view ; the mind
becomes shadowed with despair and filled with
the melancholy reflection that the happiness of
another becomes blighted with our own.
DIRRARE OF 13IPRODEITOE.
When the misguided and imprudent votary
of pleasure finds he has imbibed the seeds of
this painful disease, it too often happens that
an ffitimed sense of shame or the dread.of dis
covery deters him from applying to those who,
from education and resptctability, can alone
befriend him. He falls into the hands of igric•
rant and designing pretenders, who, incapable
of curing, filch his pecuniary substance, keep
him triffin 4 month after month, or as long as
the smallest fee can be obtained, and in despair
leave him with ruined health to sigh over his
galling disappointment, or, by the we of the
deadly poison, Mercury, hasten the constitu
tional symptoms of this terrible disease, such as
affections of the Head, Throat, Nose, Skin, etc.
progressing with frightful rapidity till death
puts a period to his dreadful sufferings by send
ing him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns.
EtfDOESEMENT OF THE PEWS.
The many thousands cured at this institution
year after year, and the numerous important
surgical operations performed by Dr. Johnson,
witnessed by the reporters of the Sun, CapPer,
and many other papers, notices of which have
appeared again and wain before the public, be
aides his standing as a gentleman of character
and responsibility, is a sufficient guarantee to
the afflicted.

MEADE ONE DAY TOO LATE
*eel' iliipatch to the Baltimore American.]
WILTTAMEPORT, July 14.
I telegraphed to you from Boonebaro this
(Tuesday) morning, that Lee's army was re
treating, and would probably escape across the
river.
Oar army was under orders to move at day
light this morning. It moved only to find no
army in front of it. I followed the advance
down to this , place, and a cleaner clearing out
than the rebels have made could not be imag
ined.
The rebels commenced their retreat yesterday
morning. Their infantry crossed principally
upon a bridge at Falling
.Waters, and their
wagons and artillery at the ford at Williams
purr. The river is not so high as reported..
The people of. Williamsport say that the
rebels dreaded an atthck yesterday from Gen.
Meade; as 'part of their force yeeterday was
already across the river. .
Their fortifications loft:out; of Williamsport
are mere temporary affairs, and as their line
was long they would easily have been carried
by assault by our troops. We waited just one
day too long.
There was some artillery bring at Falling
Waters this afternoon, and it is reported on
very good authority that some 2,000 rebels
have been captured•
WE; learn from a gentleman who left the
front last night, that General Meade, immedi
ately on ascertaining the escape of Lee, pat the
whole army in motion for a new base of opera
tions calculated to check the rebel retreat on
its way to Richmond.
Having the inner line of movement he will
be able to secure all the mountain passes on
the Virginia side of the-Potomac before the
enemy can reach it. His army Is in fine condi
tion and ready to follow tepidly. Pontoons
were across the river last evening, and we have
no doubt that his advance is already on Vir
ginia soil:
It would not be proper to state the point of
crossing, but it will be a satisfaction to know
that our army is in pursuit.
We also learn that the delay in attacking the
rebels was owing to the diffetences of opinion
among the corps commanders, to whose views
Geo. Mendalyieided in opposition to his own
jadpnent, sustained by Gene- Pleasanton and
Warren. They were all for an immedi,te at
tack on coming up, before the enemy had time
to entrench.

Major General
Wasnxiarrosr, July 15.
The Navy Department has received this
wilting a communication from Rear Admiral"
Porter, " dated the 2d instant, in which he
says : -
On the 29th of June he received a communi
cation from General Dennis, commanding the
post at Young's Point, informing him that our
black troops had been attacked at Goodrich's
Landing, and that the rebels were getting the
upper hand of thAin. A gunboat had already
been dispatched to that point, but another was
sent without delay.
Gen. Ellet was directed to proceed with the
Marine Brigade - to the scene of action, and re
main there until everything was quiet. The
hindmost vessel of the brigade,the John Haines,
arrived there -as the rebels were.setting fire to
the so-called Government plantations, and sup
posing her to be an ordinary transport they
opened on her with field pieces, but were much
surprised to have the fire returned with ahrap
nel, which fell in among them, killing and
wounding a number. The result was-a retreat
on the part of the rebels, and the spa of a
number of negroes whom theihad Imprisoned.
The gunboat Romeo also carati.tsp , the
"about this time, hearing the firing and hurtled
to the scene of action. The commander soon
discovered the rebels setting fire to the planta
tions, and commenced shelling them. This he
kept up for a distance of fifteen miles, chasing
them along, the rebels setting fire to everything
as they went along. The result was an almost
total destruction of horises and property along
the river front in that vicinity.
The rebels carried oft about 1,2" 0 negroes,
, who were employed in working on the Govern.
meat plantations. General Ellett landed his
forces, and in company with a black brigtde,
proceeded to chase the rebels, who were making
' a hasty retreat whedthey found this force after
them.
It was no part of their system to fight, they
only came to plunder and carry off the negroes.
General Etlet found the road strewn with
broken carts and furniture, which the rebels
left in their haste to get away from our forces.
He pursued them as far as Tenses river, where
they had croned. They burned the bridges
and entrenched themselves for a battle. This
was soon offered them. Our artillery soon
opened on them and put them to fiLht, not
withstanding it was reported they had twenty
field pieces.
General Ellet, not knowing the country - very
well and having only a small force with him,
deedmed it proper not to pursue the rebels
much further. He sent two hundred infantry
across the bayou, and found the rebels were re
treatening to Delhi, leaving all their plunder—
splendid furniture, pianos, &c., strewn along
the road.
The unexpected reinforcements of the Marine
Brigade and the gunboats saved the whole of
the black troops. It is only a temporary truce
though, fur as long as the blacks remain in
such small numbers so long will they be an ob
ject of attack.
The party who made this attack on the so
called Government plantations are the s
that attacked Milliken's Bend some time since.
They are a half starved, half naked set, and
are in hopes of capturing some of the transports
with clothing and provisions. They have not
done so as yet, and the necessary precautions
have been taken to prevent them doing so at
any time.

SECRET OF BEAUTY
LAIRD'S
Bloom of Youth or Livid Pearl
FOR beautifying and preserving the com
plexion and skin
After using Laird's Bloom of Youth, or Liquid
Pearl, for a short time, it will leave tee skin a
soft, satin-like texture ; it imparts freshness,
smoothness and transparency to the skin, that
can only be pro duced by the use o' this Toluable
article. It presents no vulgar white paint, as
*Bother attempted compounds do, but, on the
contrary, it will give the comp'exion a pout
like tint, such as can only be found in youth ;
its use is impossible to be detected by the closest
observers. It is also invaluable for removing
all kiods of Humors, Tans, Freckels,-Sunburns
and other entaneolut diseases from the skin.
Mr. Laird has every confidence in recom
mending his Bloom of Youth, or Liquid Pearl,
to the ladies of America, as being the only per
fect and reliable article now in use Thr beautifying
and vrewrviny the comp/awns and skin.
