The unbounded approbation bestowed on the plan antLexecutioji of the YOUXG PEOPLE'S J300K, by the conductors of the public press throughout the U. States, and by numerous per sons of the highest distinction, in the various walks of Literature, Science and Art, as well as the sub stantial patronage it has received, have induced the publisher not only to increase its claims to re gard by ADDING TO ITS LITERATtY MERITS, but also to make it more accessible to all classes of the community, by I&cducin? the Price of Subscription. For the former purpose, besides continuing the services or PROFESSOR FROST, whose ample scholarship, enlarged information, correct taste, and acknowledged ability as an ele gant and instructive writer, peculiarly qualify him for the management of a periodical devoted to young people, the publisher lias engaged the . EDITORIAL AID OF T. S. ARTHUR, a gentleman so favorably known to the American public, through the medium of his unsurpassed pro ductions, ihat it would be idle to pronounce any eulogy on his merits. Perhaps no living author is more eminently fitted to impart instruction in an attractive and impressive form than Mr. Arthur. Endowed with an extraoidinary acuteness of per ception, and the most vivid power of delineation, he lias applied these rare gifts to the development of practical truths, and while every thing which falls from his pen is calculated to attract and fix the highest degree of interest, it impresses at the same time the most useful moral. Thousands, it may confidently be asserted, have already been awa kened to a sense of duties unperformed, or evil habits unrestrained, by the simple and unobtrusive but searching lessons he has taught, and in the new field which his connection with the editorial de partment of the Young People's Book will open to Isim, no" doubt can be entertained "that he will reap fresh honors for himself, and confer fresh benefits on the community. In addition to the labours of the editors, whose energies will be- constantly directed to maintain r.nd improve the high character which the Young i'eople's Book has acquired, the various literary 'id scientific persons, whose contributions have iven dignity and force to the work, will continue n be regular correspondents, and to these will be touted almost every native writer, male or female, vvijose aid may he-made instrumental in promoting Ac great object of the work namely, to convey i oeful knowledge in such a form as will gratify 'ie tastes while it will improve the minds and artsfof lhose classes to whom it will be espe cially addressed. Without intending the slightest disparagement "j ciiijuu ui me many aumirauie penoaicais now pects, which no other can fairly claim. Avoiding nn the one hand whatever is frivolous in itself or false in its teachings, and on the other, whatever is tedious or unentertaming, it occupies a middle ground between the magazines exclusively devo led to light literature and those of a purely scien tific character, and by making the graces "of com position subserviepi to the inculcation of practical knowledge, it is calculated alike for pleasure and profit. ' In point of embellishment the Yornig People's Book vyjJL not suffer by comparison with the cost liest productions of the limes. The MczzotinS and Steel Plates it has'furnished have all been prepared by artists of the grealest 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 are not less distinguished "by fitness and' beauty; and auamg io mese tue "NUMEROUS ENGRAVINGS ON WOOD vdiich will also be given, it may be predicted with saieiy mat the pictoral department will be sucti, f sontsclf will merit the most extended patronage.

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 he has entered into, will considera bly augment the outlay he is compelled to make.

Many diseases arise from worms and occasion long and intense suff ering and even death, without their over being suspected; grown persons are very often afflict ed with them and are doctored for various com plaints, without any benefit; when one dose of these Lozenges wduld speedily cure thorn. Mr. J. Murphy, 90 North st. Philadelphia, wae applied to by a poor woman whose daugh ter, 7 years old, had been sick for nearly 3 years; tier stomach was as large as a grown person's, her arms and legs so swollen that she could not walk or help herself, although she could eat as much as two laboring men. Two celebrated doctors had exhausted their skill without any benefit; the father had spent all he could raise and was discouraged, he abandon ed all idea of doing anything more for her, and looked to death alone, to take her out of her misery. Mr. Murphy belieingit a case of worms, gave her a box of Sherman s Lozenges, and in two days she returned with joy beaming in her eyes, and said tho Lozenges lrad saved her child's life. The first dose brought away nearly a pint of worms in one living mass, she afterwards counted over 800 that were discharg ed, besides the mass which she could not count. The child was literally eaten up with them another living witness of the almost mir aculous efficacy of Sherman's Lozenges.

The principal advantage to ue oenveu irom tne maniiolu writer is, tnat a copy of any document may be kept without any additional trouble to the Writer, and without any necessity of using either an inkstand or a pen.
