In addition to the labours of the editors, whose energies will be constantly directed to maintain and improve the high character which the Young People's Book has acquired, the various literary and scientific persons, whose contributions have iven dignity and force to the work, will continue lo be regular correspondents, and to these will be united almost every native writer, male or female, whose aid may be made instrumental in promoting he great object of the work namely, to convey useful knowledge in such a form as will eratifv the tastes while it will improve the minds and hearts of those classes to whom it will be espe cially addressed. Without intending the slightest disparagement to either of the many admirable periodicals now issued from the American press, the publisher of uie loung reopie's JLJook feels justified in saying that his work possesses advantages, in some re pects, which no other can fairly claim. Avoiding on the one hand whatever is frivolous in itself or false in its teachings, and on the other, whatever is tedious or uncntertaining, it occupies a middle ground between the magazines exclusively devo ted to light literature and those of a purely scien nfic character, and by making the graces of com position subservient to the inculcation of practical knowledge, it is calculated alike for pleasure and profit. In point of embellishment the Young People's Book will not suffer by comparison with the'eost hest productions of the times. Tlie mezzotint and Steel Plates it has furnished have all been prepared by artists of the greatest celebrity, and some of the former are universally admitted to surpass in appropriate ness of design and elegance of execution, any oth ers which have been published in this country. Those intended for the forthcoming volume arc not less distinguished by fitness and beauty; and adding to these the NUMEROUS ENGRAVINGS ON WOOD which will also be given, it may be predicted with safety that the pictoral department will be such, a of itself will merit the most extended patronage. The Young People's Book, though, as its name implies, principally designed for youth of both oxes, is adapted to all classes. Persons of eve y age who are competent to read understanding may derive both information and amusement from its pages, and in every well ordered family circle it cannot fail to prove an acceptable and agreea ble companion, through whose agency both men tal recreation and mental discipline will be pro moted. To enable every family, no matter how limited its pecuniary circumstances may be, to subscribe, the publisher has determined to reduce the price of the work, notwithstanding the new arrangements be has entered into will considera bly augment the outlay he is compelled to make. For his compensation he relies on an enlarged subscription list, whicli he cannot permit himself to doubt he will immediately obtain. . The Young People's Book is published Month ly. Each number will contain an ample variety of original Reading Matter, a Mezzotint or Steel plate, and other Engravings. The price to single subscribers will be only $1 50 perannum, or four copies for 85, and ten copies lor S10, payments to be made invariably in advance, ine plates alone, if purchased -separately, would cost treble the price of subscription.

From the Boston Daily Times. INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS. Of all the public advertised medicines of thd day, we know of none that we can more safely re commend for the "ills that flesh is heir to" than the Pills that are sold at the depot of the North American College of Health, No. 198 Tiemont street, Bosttin. Several instances wo know of where they are used in families with the highest satisfaction; and no longer ago than yesterday, we heard an eminent Physician of the city recommend them in high terms. There used to ho in thfl community, a groat repugnance to the use ol QUACK medicines, as they are all indiscriminate ly termed, but it was mainly owing to the regular M. D. s constantly denouncing them. They are however, becoming more liberalin this respect, and the consequence is that good Vegetable medicines are now more extensively used than formerly. Extract of a letter from Peter Christ, Uniantown, Carrol County, Md., Nov. 17th, 1838, Dear Sir: About two months ago, I had busi ness in Baltimore, and called at your office, and bought a few boxes of the Indian Vegetablo Pills; and upon trying them I found them to be far supe rior to Pills, or any other medicine I had ever used. I had been subject to a cough for five years past, and during the time have taken a vari ety of medicines without any relief, until I got the Indian Vegetable Pills, and by taking four doses, le cough began lo leave me; and I now enjoy bet ter health than I have done for years past After I found them to be a valuable medicine, 1 imme diately sent to Baltimore for a large supply. 1 .have received so much benefit in using the IN- DIAN VEGETABLE PILLS, rtwf-I cannot help but recommend them-to every invalid I v. and think so-well of the n&dicine that I have sr twtt dozen boxes to my invalid friends, ir, L State ofliuiiana.

Washington City, D. C. Extract of a letter from Lycoming County, Pa. Mr. Wm Wright Dear Sir On being appoint ed Agents for the sale of the INDIAN VEGE TABLE PILLS in this place, we only look cue gross on trial but it would have been better ifwe had taken a half dozen gross; for on a fair trial they have far exceeded our most sanguine expecla twnsi In fact so much so that we have been oblig ed to send to Mr. Zimmerman, at Lancaster, more than a hundred miles from here for ten dozen; bet these will last but a very short time, the way we are selling them since they have been fairly tested. n the first placej I gave some to our Physicians, to make trial of since which they have purchase! a number of boxes, and highly approve of them. A ew days ago, there was a lady sent 30 miles to ge: a box of the Pills, she at the time was very lew, and unable to turn herself in bed; but in two days, my informant says she was able to help herself. We could mention many othdr cases, but deem it unnecessary at this time; but would merely sar, that as the season is fast approaching when there will be a great demand for the Indian Vegetable Pills; and if we only could get a supply of the med icine, we dould establish other agents, which would be of immense advantage not only to the NORTH AMERICAN COLLEGE OF HEALTH; but to the public generally.
