JOHNSON, Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon don, graduate from one of the most 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, hes . 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 stidden 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, via : 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. MANTAILY.—The fearful effects on the mind are much to be dreaded—loss of memory, cos. 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 ToIRI4 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 Men, the lippe of his country, the darling of his 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 Nun, beforeicontem plating MARRIAGE, 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. DIRVAFIE OF IMPRUDENCE. When the misguided and imprudent votary of pleasuri3 finds he has:imbibed the seeds of this painful disease, it too often happens that an 'Mimed sense of shame or the dread of dis covery deters him from applying to those who, from education and respectability, can alone befriend him. He falls into the hands of igno rant and designing pretenders, who, incapable of curing, filch his pecuniary substance, keep him triflin._ inisethafter 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 use of the deadly poison, Mercury, •hitsten 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.

Such a remedy is surely wanted by those who suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one which will accomplish their cure must prove of immense service to this large class of our fainted fellow citizens. How completely this compound will do it has been proven by ex periment on many of the worstcases to be found in the following complaints SCROFULA. AND Scam:mous COMPLAINTS, ERUP TIONS AND ERUPTIVE DISSAIDS, ULCERS, PIMPLE, BLOTOHES, TUMOINI, SALT RHEUM, SCALD BRAD, SYPHILIS AND SYPHILITIC HERCHIONS, MERCURIAL DISEASE, DROPSY, NEURALGIA oa flo DoLoastra, DEBILITY, DYSPEPSIA. AND INDIGESTION, ERYSIPS- Les, Ross Os Sr. Arcrnoat's FMB, and indeed the whole class of complaints arising from .1x- PLICITY OF MR `iSLOOD. This compound will be found a great promo- ter of health, when taken in the spring, to expel the foul humors which fester in the blond at that season of the year. By the timely expulsion of them many rankling disorders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from -the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of the body by an alters t've medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions or so] os ; cleanse it when you find it is obstructed and. sluggish in the veins ; sleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings rw'll tell you when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleans ing the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well ; but with the pabulum of life disor dered, there can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or over thrown. During late years the public, have been mis led by large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Sarsaparilla, but often no curative properties whatever.— Hence, bitter and painful disappointmtmt bas followed the use of the various extracts of Sar saparilla which flood the market, until the name itself is justly despised, and has become synony mous with imposition sod cheat Still we call this compound Sarsa parbla,.and irdend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. And we think we have ground for believing it has virtues which are irresistible by the Ordinary run of the diseases it is intended to cure. Prepared by Da. J. O. AYSIt & 00., LOwell, Mass.

Extracts from Richmond Papers. A. Question of Veracity between Gen, BALTIMORB, July 28. The steamer Adelaide, oact sin Cannon, came into port at an early hour this morning from 0:d Point, bringing up a number of officers o: the army and navy. The Hon. Wm. U. Seward, Secretary of State, son and son in law, and a daughter and son of President Lincoln came down from Washington on Sunday in the steamer Ella, Captain Wahl. Yesterday morning they visited Admiral Lee on board the flagship Minnesota, and were received with the usual salute. After spending a couple of hours there they proceeded to the Roan , ke, and afterwards to Fortress Monroe, the water battery thing a salute of fifteen guns. Yesterday the schooner Benjamin F. Butler, from Boston, anchored at one of the whaiv , s with a load of hay, but the keen custom house officers suspected something else on board be sides hay, and upon instituting a search discav ered 1 800 bottles of whisky and other liquors, which had been very carefully packed in thirty barrels. The entire lot was confiscated. 44 7 he flag of truce stemner brought down seve ral Richmond and iither impels. The following paragraphs ate copied from the Richmond Santuzel of yesterday : MEAD& VS. -L&&-A QUIZTION OF TEsecra The following official communication from Gen. Lee, illastrat,s the unreliability of the dispatches embnatiug from Yankee Generals : HEADQUARTEREI ARMY NORTHERN ViRRINLI, } 2lst July, 1863. General S. Cooper, Adjutant and Inspeoter General C. S• A., Rzehrnond, Va Geszaer.:- I have seen in Northern papers what purports to be an official dispatch from Gen. Meade, stating that he had captured a brigade of infantry, two pieces of artillery, two casdons and a large number of small arms, as this army returned to the south bank of the Potomac, on the 13th and 14th in ts. This dispatch has been cripted into the Rich mond papers, and as its official character mat cause it ro be believed, I desire to bt ite that it is incorrect. The enemy did not capture soy organized body of men on that occasion, but only stiaggiers and such as were left asleep on the road exhinsted by the fatieua,and exposure of one of toe most inclement nights 1 have ever known at this season of the year. it rained without cessation, rendering_the- roast by which our troops .rnarcbeci towards the bridge atFalling Via era.very difficult, to pass, and eveing.eo netted delay that the resit of the troops Matra - cum o.the river at the bridge omit llr. it. on the moining of the ME. -While the column was thus detained on the road, a number of men worn down with fatigue. laid down in barns and by the road side, nod though officers were sent back to arouse them as the troops moved on, the darkness and rain prevented them from finding all, and many were in this way left behind. Two guns were left in the road. The horses that drew them became exhausted, and the officers went back to procure others. When they returned the rear of the column had passed the guns so tar that it was deemed unsafe to send back for them, and they were thus lost. No arms, cannon, or prisoners were taken by the enemy in battle, but only such as were left behind, as I have described under the circumstances. The num ber of stragglers tens lost I am unable to state with accura, y, hat it is greatly exaggerated in the dispat. h referred to. I am, with great respect, Your obedient servant, B. E. LEE, General. [Notwithstanding these positive assertions of Gen. Lee, the main facts were undoubtedly as stated by Gen. Meade, and wll be so proved. The writer of this was at Williamsport on the morning of the 14th, a few hours after the rebel evacuation. There was unquestionably then a fi.tht going on at Falling Waters, as the reports both of artillery and small arms could be heard at Williamsport. The cavalry, who returned in a short time, brought back with them prisoners captured, and spoke of the fight in which they had been engaged, and in which they reported that the rebel General Longstreet was mortally wounded. At Boons boro the next day, 15te, I saw in one of the hospitals sixteen rebel wounded, who, the ear geon in charge told me, received their wounds in the fight of the previous day at Falling Waters. The ambulances of Buford's cavalry division, which brought these rebel wounded, also took to another hospital nine of our own men, wounded in the same fight. There was therefore unquestionably a fight at Falling Waters on the 14th, the result of which was the capture of a considerable number of pris oners, though perhaps not of a whole brigade, as at first reported.—Ens ] Sole Agent, 93. Market street As the Western mail is not opened at the postoffi.ce on Sunday night, we had no letters last eveningi from our correspondent with the Army of Northern Virginia. The Central train last evening brought down Vera Gurdontville abort three hundred and fifty Yankees, captured in a S i ght at Snicker's Gap, ou Friday. We were uosb'e to obtaiu any particulars of the affair beyond the report that General Hill's corps dislodged the enemy who were holding the pass, killing a nuerbe. and capturing tee prisoners who arrived here yesterday. It seems probable, from all ac counts, that the larger portion of Gen. Lee'e army is now In Culpepper county, and that Meade is cautiously moving In the same di rection. It is the general belief in North Carolina, that at least two thirds of the raiders who vi,ito - Rocky Mount last Monday have been either killed t . r c .ptured. Ihe North.

The curb, or Lniug, was being put - to, but fitt.ng lather tightly, Hugh Mulligan, assistant engineer of the house who had charge of the work, laid a few boatels across the and calling a number of boys to his aid, they got.on the platform tt ua formed for the purpose of pressing it down to its place, Ate tog neer rfccueyi g a position attcut the centre of the boards, and the th.ya to the num ber of thirty-two, standing ou the edge of the curb. A moment or so after they commenced to force the curb down, the boards gave way beneath the ptessme, and the engineer and ' twenty-seven of the toys were precipitated to the bottom of the well. The occurrence soon brought a crowd to the spot, and immedrately measures were taken for bringing the part' a to the surface. Thu dangerous chatacter of the accident and the cries of the boys below gave rise to the'most fearful anti ipation, but it few moment sufficed to show that the comequences were not by any means so serious as appre hended. The engineer w taken out dead, but of the twenty-seven boys who tell in, not one was severely injured. :Several of them are badly scratched and some of them bruised, but none of them were injured to atcy.sertotts ex tent.
