Joseph R Chandler, Esq Robert Morris, Esq Hon RT Conrad S C Walker, Esq R Penn Smith, Esq John Greenough, Esq The unbounded approbation bestowed on the plan and execution of the YOUNG PEOPLE'S BOOK, 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 stan'.ial patronage it has received, have induced the publisher not only to increase its claims to re gard by ADDING TO ITS LITERARY MERITS, but also to make it more accessible to all classes of the community, by Reducing the Price of Subscription. For the former purpose, besides continuing the services of PROFESSOR FROST, whose ample scholarship, enlarged information, correct taste, and acknowledged ability as an cle gani and instructive writer, peculiarly qualify him lor tiie management ol a periodical devoted to young people, the publisher has 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, that it would be idle to pronounce any eulogy on his merits. Perhaps no living author is more eminently luted to impart instruction m an attractive and impressive form than Mr. Arthur. Endowed with an extraoulinary acuteness of per ception, and the most vivid power of delineation, he has applied these rare gifts to the development of practical truths, and while every thing which falls from his penis calculated to attract and fix tiie 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 him, 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 tid improve the high character which the Young People's Book has acquired, the various literary nd scientific persons, whose contributions have ven dignity and force to the work, will continue i be regular correspondents, and to these will be united almost every native writer, male or female, - hose aid may be made instrumental in promoting ie great object of the work namely, to convey ...iu.riL.uc 111 autii a juim as win grainy t.ie tastes while it will improve the minds and !.earts of those classes to whom it will be espe t lally addressed. Vithout intending the slightest disparagement ro either of the many admirable periodicals now ' isued from the American press, the publisher of i.ie Young People's Book feels justified in saying that his work possesses advantages, in some re jects, which no other can fairly claim. Avoiding n the one hand whatever is frivolous in itself or false in its teachings, and on the other, whatever s tedious or unentertaining, it occupies a middle ground between the magazines exclusively devo ied to light literature and those of a purely scien tific 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 Hook will not suffer by compaiison with the cost liest productions of the times. The Mezzotint and Steel Plates U has furnished have all been prepared by artists f 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 are 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, as tf itself will merit the most extended patronage. The Young People's Book, though, as its name implies, principally designed for youth of both sexes, is adapted to all classes. Persons .of eve ry age who are competent to read understanding!' may derive both information and amusement from its pages, and in every well ordered family circle H 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 lie has entered into, wilt considera bly augment the outlay he is compelled to make. For his compensation he relies on an enlarged subscription list, which 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 Si 50 per annum, or four copies for $5, and ten copies for $10, payments to be made invariably in advance. The plates alone, if purchased separately, would cost treble the price of subscription. Address, postage paid, MORTON M'MICHAEL, publisher's hall, 101 Chesnut street, Philadelphia. TERMS.

Proved in more than 400,000 cases to be infal lible; the only certain worm-destroymg mcdi cine ever discovered. Many diseases arise from worms and occasion long and intense suff ering and even death, without their ever being suspected; grown persons are very often alllict ed with them and are doctored for various com plaints, without any benefit; when one dose of these Lozenges would speedily cure them. Mr. J. Murphy, 90 North st. Philadelphia, was applied to by a poor woman whose daugh ter, 7 years old, had been sick lor nearly J years; her 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. Murohv bcliovinc it a case of worms, gave her a box of Sherman s Lozenges, and in two days she Tetnrned with joy beaming in her eyes, and said the Lozenges had 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 proprietor has never known an instance where they did not give perfect satisfaction. Over 3,000 persons have given their names with in the last year as a reference of the wonderful 1 virtues of these Cough Lozenges. They cure all recent cases m a lew nours, seiaom requiring more than one day to entiiely eradicate the most dis tressing ones. Mr. G. T. Mattheivs, suffered a year with a hard, tight cough, pain in the side, spitting of blood, and all the usual symptoms of consumption. The Lo zenges relieved him immediately, and in a few weeks restored him to perfect health. He says they are the greatest cough mcdicilie in the world. The Rev. Dr. Easlmond, gave a few to a lady, a friend of his, who had been given up by her phy sician and friends as in the last stage ol consump tion. The first Lozenge gave her considerable re lief, so that she was encouraged to persevere in their use; and through the blessing of God they re stored her to perfect health. Mr. James W. Hale, No. 5 Tontine Buildings, Wall st.t gave some to a friend who had not enjoy ed a night's sleep for several weeks, being every few minutes attacked with such a distressing cough, as almost to lake away his life. The Lo zenges made him raise easy, and enabled him to sleep well all night. He had tried every thing he heard of, and nothing else afforded the least relief a nother instance of saving a fellow being from an untimely grave. The Rev. Darius Anthony, of the Oneida Con ference, was given up as incurable, believed to be on the verge of the grave from consumption, with out the hope of relief, till he tried these Lozenges. They relieved him immediately, and in a few weeks restored him to health, so that he could re sume his duties as a minister of the gospel. He recommends them to all who are consumptive or have any derangement of their lungs, as the great est medicine in the known world. lie has wit nessed their effects on several others, and always with the happiest results. He says so great a remedy through the blessing of Divine Providence, should bo the common property of all, and in eve Fy family on the face of the earth. For sale at the Republican Office, by T.
