I feel it a duty incumbent upon myself to
r - dfWlare publicly the great bleating Dr. Mar
. ehlki's Uterine Catholicon ha* proved to me.
► For two years my (tealth was miserable; I
was almost unable to walk. Physicians pro
nounced my case tailing ol the womb, exten
aive ulcerations, commencing with flour al
bus. The pains, irritation, prostration, Ac.,
rendered life a burden. In this miserable
condition, Dr. F. P. Newland recommended
Dr. Marcltisi's Uterine Catholicon. After ta
king lour bottles I found my*ell in perfect
health. Gratitude (or my restoration makes
me ardently desire that all my sex, a like
unfortunate, may find sure relief Irom this in
estimable medicine. .

I would be 'glad to have a further supply,

I must say, from my own experience and
personal observations in my practice, it has
proved to he the best and safest remedy for
the difficulties for which it is recommended,
viz.: those ol female weakness, such as Pro
lapsus Uteri. Flour Albus, and all irregular
nnd painful menstruation, and diseases of ir
ritation of the female organs.

The claims of this medicine to the confi

fact of its haying received tho approbation
and pnlrbnjge of many prominent members
of the Medical Faculty in the United States,
eome of whom have voluntarily given letters
of commendation, pamphlet,) sustaining
all that is claimed lor it as a curative agent.

TO THE FASUONABLE AND ff)
undersigned, having just received the
*■ latest Paris and New York Fashions,
would again bog leave to ininrm his numer
ous friends and all the world about Blooms
burg, that he is now bet'er prepared ;iian ev
er to accommodate any one w ih th • neatest,
easiest and best fitting suits of Clothes that
have been turned out lately; and not only
that, but he will also do them up in the best
order, upon the lowest terms.
His shop is at the old stand, (too well
known to need lutther notice) where he may
at all limes be found, eeated upon the bench
of repentance, steadily drawing out the thread
of affliction, hopeing it may in the end prove
advantageous to him and his customers. He
would also advise his friends to bear in mind
that poor, afflicted tailors must live, or they
can't be expected to work. Therefore, Wheat.
Rye, Corn, Oats, Potatoes, and with all now
and then a little CASH will come mighty
handy from those who are back-standing on
hte book.
Remember, gentlemen, that in al! cases
"the laborer is worthy of his hire."

The i ractice of Dr. Hunter has long boen,

nest solicitation of numerous persons, he has
bfon induced to extend the sq here of his pro

through tho medium of his "Medi .nl Manual

It is n volume ihat >houfd he in the haj.d cf

nreveinive of secret vice, or as a guide for the
alleviation of one of the most uwful and dt
ttlrtictive scourges ever visited upon mankind
. for the sins of sensuality aud impurity of every

It is a volume that has received the unquali
fied recommendation of the first phvait-iaria in
the land, while many elergvmen. fathers, moth
ers. I hilanlbropists aid humanitarians, have
moat freely extended its circulation in all quit

ly to lie instrumental in the moral purification
uml |)hvl:al healing of multitude i of our peo
ple, among tho young, volatile anil indiscreet,
otherwise the-piidc and (lower of tbe nation.
The aulhoi argues particularly, most strongly
against every species of self-defilement, and
warns parents and guardians, in leu. thing
terms, to gnotd the young of troth sexes from
the terrible consequences concomitant of their
ignnraneo of phy-nlngical laws and sexual im
purities sod irirgolanties, whether exhibited
oy precocious devclo) nient or arising fiom the
viscious and corrupting examples of their school,
males or otheiwise. To those who have Ires.)
already ensnared to tho "paths that take hoiu
on hell, 1 ' a clear and explicit way is shown by
which they may secure a return of sound health
and a regeneration of the soul from its terrible
pollution.
It is well known that thousands of victims
are annually sacrilicoJ at tho shrine of Quack

Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weak

adies which spring directly or less remotely
from llto indulgence of carnal passions and se

So sang tlie Bard ; yet thousands pine
For love—ol 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 ol which they dream.
The road to Wedlock would you kr.ow f

A shadow falls on living things;

And the plan is simple, yet so captivating
that ell may be married irrespective of age,

ged with such ease and delicacy, that detec
tion is impossible.
It teaches how to make love.
It leaches every eye to form a beauty of its
own.
It tpaches how to act when fascinated by a
lady.
It teaches how to make the wrinkled face
[. smooth.
It leaches you the kind of a wife to select to
render home happy-
It gives advice to the lover who has been

BROOKLYN SCHOOLS.
Having submitted "Stoddard's Intellectual
Arithmetic to the practical lest of the school
room, we have no hesitation in expressing.*
struug preference for it over all text Books
on the subject. The author has taken a de
cided step in advance of those who have
preceded him ; and his labors are likely to
do much toward pttpulariziug a'study,' tlwa
Importance of which as a mental discipline
can hardly be over estimated. The works
forrneily iu use were iJificienl of systematic
arrangement, were neither gradual enough in
their transitions, nor sufficiently comprehen
sive and varied as regards their examples.—
Stoddard's on the other hand, is an eminent
ly practical bonk ; philosophical in its ar
rangement, natu-al and lucid in its analaytit,
original in its design, adapted at the com- *
! mencentent to the comprehension of 4>*gMi
ners and currying the pupil by easy induct
ive steps through the must complicated oper
ations it seems invulnerable to criticism, and
leaves little or nothing to be accomplished
by future authors on this subject. The ex
amples are numerous and varied, embracing
all case, likely to arise in business; snd
there are not less than fifty j ages of ques
tions capable of Algebraic solutions. Tbe
Chapters on Percentage, interest and Dis
count, are woithy of special commendation.
In these the author has an erftire original
plan ; which enables the pupil to solve menu
tally, with perfect ease, questions whieh,
without this drilling, few are able to manage
even on Ihe slate,
j In view ol these striking and excellent fee-
I lores, we warmly commend Prof. Stoddard's
I work to all who are interested in the educa
| lion of youth.

Messrs. Sheldon, Lamport & Blakeman:—
Gentlemen—l examined the copies of S>od
■lard's Series of Arithmetics, with which you
kindly furnished me in July last, end was so
well pleased with the result of that examina
tion, that at the opening of the Fail Terra of
the Institute I introduced the Imelleofuitl
I and Ihe Practical, and at the commence
' men! ol the Winter Teim, 'he Philosophical.
- The result has far exceeded my axpectations.
i They have triumphantly passed tbatggnhat
"j searching of all tests for school books—the
j class and the recitation room. Each book it
I superior in :is kind and for Ihe purpose for
j which it was designed: and taken -together
j they constitute - the most perfect Series of
Arithmetics that I have ever seen. I eon
honestly, as well as earnestly commend thahl
to the attention of teachers and, others inWt
ested in the promotion of litis important study.
