whom dune their best to restore me,—gave me up,—

GP Those wlto Cottilerfeil a good medicine for
the purpose of adding a few dollars to their pockets,
are far worse than the manufacturers of spurious coin.
For while the latter only robs us of our property,
the former take property and health and life away.—
Dr. Wuraft's Balsam of Wild CAerry is admitted
by thousands of disinterested witnesses, to have effect
ed the most extraordinary cures in cases of a point°.
nary and asthmatic character ever before recorded in
the history of medicine.
The young , and beautiful, the good, ell speak forth
its praise. tis now the favorite medicine in the
moat intelligent families of our country.
Such a highstand in public estimation has been a
chieved by its own merits alone. And so long as a
discerning public are careful to get Wistar's Bai
samef Wild Cherry, and refuse with scorn counter
feits, and every otherarticle preferred to them as a
substitute, so long will cures—poritire cures—cheer
the fireside of a depairing family.
WTho true and genuine "Winter's Balsam of
Wild Cherry" is sold at established agencies in all
parts of the United States.

Last Winter Session—Dancing School.
MADAME BLAIQUE'S last session for the pres•
eat winter, will commence on Friday afternoon,
February 13th, at 3 o'clock, P. M., at her Room in
the Lafayette Assembly buildings.
In announcing the re-organization of her classes
fur the last vsinter season, Madame 8., hopes it will
not be out of place to convey to her kind patrons her
grateful acknowledgment of the liberal support they
have hitherto untended to her. She cannot but feel
highly flattered at the evidence they adduced of their
eminent appreciation of her services as a Teacher,
in the crowded state of her classes, and she feels con
fident the simple announcement of the reorganize
Lion of her classes will be sufficient to secure to her
a continuance of their favors.
In order to give that eclat to the Ezaathiation
Ball, she proposes closing her winter labors with,
and which the presence of all her pupils can only
secure, Ole of the following inducement to her
