The unbounded approbation bestowed on the
pln 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 ihe various walks
of Literature, Science and Art, .is well as the sub
stantial patronage it has received, have induced
ihe 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
Itcduciiis the Price of Subscription.
For the former purpose, besides continuing the
services 01
PROFESSOR FROST,
whoc ample scholarship, enlarged information,
correct taste, and acknowledged ability as an ele
gant, ami instructive writer, peculiarly qualify him
for the management of 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 fitted to impart instruction in an
attractive and impressive form than Mr. Arthur.
Endowed with an extraordinary 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 pen is calculated to attract and fix the
highest degree of interest, it impresses at the same
lime 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, whoso
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
j-iven dignity and force to the work, will continue
to be regular correspondents, and to these will be
unrcd 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 knoivledge in such a form as" will gratify
ihe 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
the Young People's Book feels justified in saying
that his work possesses advantages, in some re
peats, 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
ie 1 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
Book will not suffer by comparison with the cost
Lest produrtions of the times.
TTfcs Mezzotint and Steel Plates
it has furnished have all been prepared by artists
of i ';e greatest celebrity, and some of the former
-are universally admitted to surpass in appropriate -r.sss
o design and elegance of execution, any oth
ers whirh have been published in this country.
Those intended for the forthcoming volume are
j.ot less distinguished by fitness and beauty; and
adding to theso the
NUMEROUS ENGRAVINGS ON WOOD
which will also be given, it may bo predicted with
safety that the pictoral department will be such,
en of itself will merit the most extended patronage.

Proved in more than 400,000 cases to be infal
lible; the only certain worm-desiroying medi
cine ever discovered. Many diseases arise
from worms and occasion long and intense suft
ering and even dcaih, without their ever being
suspected; grown persons are very often afflict
ed with them and are doctored for various com
plaints, wiihoul any benefit; when one dose of
these Lozenges would speedily cure them.
Mr. J. Murphy, 00 North st. Philadelphia,
was applied to by a poor woman whose daugh
ter, 7 years old, had been sick for nearly 3
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
celebraied doctors had exhausted their skill
without any benefit; tho father had spent all he
could raise arid 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 believing it 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 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 werediseharg
ed, besides the mass which she could not
count. The child was litorally eaten up with
them another living witness of the almost mir
aculous efficacy of Sherman's Lozenges.

We have tried Doctor Jos. Priesley Peters' Ve
getable Pills, and have no hesitation in pronounc
ing them the best Antibilious Medicine that we
have ever used in our families. We are acquaint
ed with several families in this city who give them
the preference to all other kinds, on account of
their mildness, and at the same time, certainty of
action. New-York Examiner.
More than ten millions of boxes of these truly
valuable Antibilious Pills have been sold in the
United States, Canadas, West Indies, Mexico, and
Texas, since the first of January, eighteen hun
dred and thirty-five.
Hundreds and thousands bless the day they were
induced by the persuasion of a friend, to try a Box
of Doctor Peters' Pills.
They are in use as a Family Medicine, and all
who have used them give them the preference to
all other kinds, on account of their being a safe,
pleasant, and easy aperient being mild in their
action at the same time; though, in their operation,
producing neither sickness, griping, nor debility.
JJoct- Jos. Priestley Peters,
Dear Sir: I have used your valuable
Pills these last four years, in cases of Dyspep'sia,
Liver Complaint, and Sick Head,achc, and have
found them, in a majority of cases, the most valu
able Pills 1 have ever used.

ALL Persons insuring in this company are
members equally interested in its welfare
and in the election of its officers.
In order to become a member of this company
and thereby be insured, the applicant gives a pre
mium note, the amount of which is in proportion
to the amount to be insured, and its degree of
hazard, thus: If $1000 is to be insured, at 5 per
cent., he gives his note for $50. If at 10 per cent,
he gives his note for $100, and in that proportion
for a greater or less sum, according to the rate of
hazard, on which note he advances 0 per cent, and
an additional sum of $1 50 for survey and policy.
He then becomes a member on the arproval of
his application and is insured for live years. 1 he
aggregate of the premium notes constitutes the
cash fund, chargable first, with the expenses, and
second, with the losses of the Company; and
should it prove insufficient to pay both losses and
expenses the money to meet the losses, (should
any occur) is borrowed agreeably to the act of in
corporation, and paid. An assessment is then
made to repay such loan upon the premium notes,
in proportion to their respective amounts, and in no
case to be made but once a year, notwithstanding
several losses may happen.
At the expiration of five years the note, if any
assessments have been made and paid, is given
up, and the insured may renew his application.
Policies may at any time be assigned or sur
rendered and cancelled, and the premium notes
civen up. according: to the by-laws of the Com
pany. No more than three fourths of the cash
value of any property will be insured, and all
great hazards: such as Cotton Factories, Powder
Mills, Distilleries, Machine Shops, Manufactories
for Printer's Ink, and all establishments of the
same class of hazards, arc not insured upon any
conditions whatever, and that no one risk is taken
over $5000, it is considered much more safe and
less expensive than in Stock companies, where
they insure large amounts and hazardous property.

This extraordinary medicine is founded upon
the principle that the human frame is subject to
VNLY ONE DISEASE, viz: Corrupt Humors,
c?- in other woids Impurity of the Blood, and noth
ing save vegetable cleansing, is wanted in order
to drive disease of every description from the bo
dy. If the channels of our mighty rivers should be
come choked up, would not the accumulated wa
ters find new outlets, or tho country be inundated
Just so with the human body; if the natural drains
become closed, the accumulated impurities will
most assuredly find vent in some form of disease,
or death will be a certain consequence.
WRIGHTS INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS
are eminently calculated for carrying out this
GRAND PURIFYING PRINCIPLE, because
they are a purgative medicine so justly balanced
and withal so natural to the human constitution,
that they cannot possibly injure the most delicate;
at the same time, if used in such a manner as to
produce free evacuations by the bowels, and re
peated a few times, it will be absolutely impossi
ble for pain or distress of any kind to continue in
the body. A single twenty-five cent box of the
above named Indian Vegetable Pills will, in all
cases, give relief, sometimes even beyond the
power of words to describe, and if persevered in
for a short time, there is not a malady in the
whole course of human ills that can possibly with
stand their astonishing and wonderful influence.
WRIGHT'S INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS
are a ccrtiin cure for
COSTIVENESS,
Because they completely cleanse the stomach and
bowels from those billious and corrupt humours
which paralyse and weaken the digestive organs,
and are the cause of headache, nausea, and sick
ness, palpitation of the heart, rheumatic pains in
various parts of the body, and many other unplea
sant symptoms.
In all disordered motions of the Blood, called
Intermittent, Remittent, Nervous; Inflammatory,
and Putrid
FEVERS,
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will "be found a
certain remedy; because they cleanse the stom
ach and bowels from all bilious humours and pu
rify the blood; consequently, as they remove eve
ry kind of disease, they are absolutely certain to
cure every kind of fever.
So, also, when morbid humours are deposited
upon the membrane and muscle, causing those
pains, inflammations and swellings, called
RHEUMATISM, GOUT, &c,
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills may be relied on
as always certain to give relief, and if persevered
with, will most assuredly, and witnout fail, make
a perfect cure of the above painful maladies.
From three to six of said Indian Vegetable Pills
taken every night on going to bed, will, in a short
time, completely rid the body from all morbid and
corrupt humours; and rheumatism, gout, and pain
of every description, will despair, as if by magic.
For - the same reason, when, from sudden
changes of the atmosphere, or any other cause,
the perspiration is checked, and those humours
which should pass off by the skin, are thrown in
wardly, causing headache, nausea, and sickness,
pain in the bones, watery and inflamed eyes, sore
throat, hoarseness, coughs, consumption, rheu
matic pains in various parts of the body, and ma
ny other symptoms of
CATCHING COLD,
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will invariably
give immediate relief. Three or four pills taken
at night on going to bed, and repeated a few limes
will remove all the above unpleasant symptoms,
and restore the body to even sounder heahh than
before. The same may be said of difficulty of
breathing, or
ASTHMA.
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will loosen
and carry off by the stomach and bowels those
rough and phlegmy humours which stop the air
cells of the lungs, and arc the cause of the above
dreadful complaint.
It should also be remembered that WRIGHTS
INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS are certain to
remove pain in the side, oppression, nausea and
sickness, loss of appetite, costivencss, a yellow
tinge of the skin and eyes, and every other symp
tom of
LIVER COMPLAINT.
Because they purge from the body those corrupt
and stagnant humours, which when deposited on
the liver, are tho cause of the above dangerous ;
complaint They are also to prevent
APOPLEXY AND SUDDEN DEATH.
Because they carry off tho30 humors which ob
structing the circulation, arc tho csuse of a rush,
or determination of blood to the head; giddiness,
especially on mr;;ing suddenly round, blindness,
drowsiness, loss of n.em rj , ii.flamation of the
brain, insai.ity, ami all disorders of the mind.
Those who labour within dors should remem
ber that they frequently breathe an ntmosphcre
which is wholly unfit for tke proper expansion

exercise, the bowels nro'iiot. sufficiently evacua
