The small volume that comes with them,

rentier the Chans one of the most useful
means of ins rttclinn.

THEODORE FRELINGHUYSEN.
Mr. A - Ranuey.
There are ten charts in all. each measur

altogether, about three hundred diagrams,
illustrative ol the ntnst important outline
principles of the Natural Sciences. Beside
the essential diagrams found in the ordinary
text hunks, these charts contain several ori
ginal illustrations, and possess the merit
rarely found iu school books—of being en
tirely original in plsn and arrangement. —
They are, moreover, highly ornamental to a
school room, and obvit'e the necessity -ol
philttsopltiral apparatus which would cost
Irom 83,000 to 55,000.

'' Love rules the qourt, the camp the grove.
For Love is Heaven, and Heaven is Love.''
So sang the Bard ; yet thousands pine
For love—of life the light divine—
Who, did they know some gentle charm,
The hearts ol those they love to warm,
Might live, might die, in bliss supreme,
Possessing all of which they dream.
The road to Wedlock would you know?
Delay noi, but to RONDOUT go.
Time flies, and from his gloomy wings
A shadow fulls on living things;
Then seize the moments as they pass,
Ere fall the last sands through the glass;
At least the present is your own,
While ail the future is unknown.
A happy marriage man or maid
Can now secure by RONDOUT'S aid.
CONTENTS:
It leaches how to make ladies or gentle
men WIII the devoted affections <A as many
ol the opposite sex as their hearts may desire.
And the plan is simple, yet so captivating
that all may be married irrespective of age,
appearance or position; and it can be arran
ged with such ease and delicacy, that detec
tion is impossible.
It teaches how to make love.

delights of Married Life, that has ever been
issued from the American press. The artifi
cialsocial system, which in so many instan
