I feel if a duly incumbent upon myself to
declare publicly the great blessing Dr. Mar
chiei's Uterine Catbolicon has proved lo me.
For two years my health was miserable; I
was almost unable to walk. Physicians pro
nounced my case falling of the womb, exten
sive ulcerations, commencing with flour al
bus. The pains, irritation, prostration, &c.,
Tendered lite a burden. In this miserable
condition, Dr. F. P. Newland recommended
Dr. Marehisi's Uterine Catholieon. After In
king four bottles I found myself in perfect
health. Gratitude for my restoration makes
me ardently desire that all my sex, a like
unfortunate, may find sure relief Irorn this in
estimable medicine.

I would be "glad lo have • further supply, J
as the medicine is becoming very popular, j
and 1 think will continue, as it has given rc
lief in every instance where propeily taken.

Prevail on medical men to adopt it in their j
practice : and I have no fears ot the result, j
from what knowledge 1 have ob'ained per
sonalty of its curative powers. I wish the |
medicine kept here.

r 1 must say, from my own experience and j
personal observations in my practice, it lias |
proved lo be ihe best and safest remedy lor I
the difficulties for which it is recommended, |
viz : those of female weakness, such as Pro- i
lapsus Uteri, Flour Albus, and all irregular i
and painful menstruation, and diseases of ir- I
tilation of the female organs.

The claims of this medicine lo the ronfi- j
dence of the public are strengthened by the ,
fact of its having received the approbation j
and patronage of many prominent members j
of the Medical Faculty in the United Slates, j
some of whom have voluntarily given letters i
of commendation, (see pamphlet,) sustaining
all that is claimed lor it as a curative agent. I

would again beg leave to inform his numer
ous friends and all the world about Blooms
burg, that hois now better prepared thonev
er to accommodate any one w.th the 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, (ton well
known to need futther notice) where lie may
at all times be found, seated upon the hencA
of repentance steadily drawing out the thread
of ofiiiction, 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,

THE never failing MRS. VAN HORN is
the vety best; she is sure to succeed
when all others have failed. All who are in
trouble, all who have been unfortunate, de
ceived and trifled with ; all wltose (ond hopes
have been crushed and blasted by false prom
ises, all who have had bad luck, fly to her
lor advice and satisfaction, from whatever
cause, fly to her for relief and comfort. In
love affairs she was never known to fail
She has the secret of winning the affections
of the opposite sex. it is this fact which
induces illiterate pretenders to try to imitate
her. She shows you the likeness of jour
future wife, husband, or absent friend. It is
well known to the public at large that she
is the first, and only person in this country
who can show their likeness in reality—
which can be testified and proved by thou
sands, both married and single, who daily
and eagerly visit her. Como one, come all,

Tur. Author of the above volume is a gradu
ate of one 01 the first medical schools in the
United States, and having devoted o quarter of
a century to the study and treatment of Syphilis
and kindred disorders as a speciality, he has
become possessed of most invaluable informa
tion in regard to the same, and is able to coin
pass into vade mccum compass the very quint
essence of medical science on this important
subject; as the result of the experience of the
most eminent physician in Kuropo and Amer
ica is thoroughly demonstrated in his own
highly successful practice in the treatment of
so ret diseases in many thousands of cases in
the City of Philadelphia alone.
The | racticc of Dr. Hunter has long boen,
and still is literally unbounded, but at the ear
nest solicitation of numerous persons, he hus
bean induced to extend the sphere of his pro
fessional usefulness to the community at large,
through the medium of his "Medial Manual
Hand-Hook for the Afflic'ed.''
It is a volume that should he in the ha tl d of
every family ill the land, whether used as a
preventive of secret vice, or as a guide for the
alleviation of one of tho most awful and de
structive scourges ever visited upon mankind
for the sins of sensuality and impurity of every
kl d.
It is n volume that has received the unquali
fied recommendation of the first physicians in
the land, while many clergymen, fathers, moth
ers, i hilanlhropists and humanitarians, have
most freely extended its circulation in all quar
ters where its puvverful teachings would he like
ly to be instrumental in the niorol purification
and phvswal healing of multitude! of our peo
ple, among the young, volatile and iudiscreet,
otherwise the pride and flower of the nation.
The authoi argues particularly, most strongly
against every apccies of self-dcfilcnicnt, and
warns parents and guardians, in sca.ching
terms, to guard the young of both sexes from
the terrible consequences concomitant of their
ignorance of phyiologica! laws and sexual im
purities and irregularities, whether exhibited
ny precocious develo| ment or arising fiom the
viscious and corrupting examples of their school,
males or otbeiwise. To those who have been
aliendy ensnared to tho "paths that take hold
on hell,'' 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 sacrificed at the shrine of Quack
ery —especially tliososuffering fiom Venereal or
Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weak
ness, Nervous Debility, and lite numerous mal
adies which spring directly or loss remotely
from the indulgence of carnal passions arid se
cret violations of Nature.
In view of these (nets, and when it is also
considered that about 100,000 persons die annu
ally in the United States of Conoumption—a
large majority being the victims of the voluput
ous indiscretion of their progenitors, agreeably
to the Scriptuial enunciation, that the sins of
the parents arc visited upon the children, even to
the third and fourth generation. The Author,
imbued with sentiments of enlarged philhothro
