Birmingham Female Seminary.
THE fifth semi-annual term of this institu
tion will commence on Wednesday, the
23rd of April, instant.
The liberal patronage which this school has
heretofore received encourages the proprietors
and friends of female education to expect, by
proper elfort, to matte it both a permanent and
important institution. And in hope of accom
plishing this, vigorous efforts are making for
the erection of a large and commodious
which is expected to be ready for occupan
cy by the opening of the winter term.
For the present session a number of boarders
can be accommodated in the family of the Prin
cipal and others will find good accommodation
in private families in the village at reasonable
rates.
No pains will be spared to sustain the grow
ing reputation of this institution. And the
Principal hopes, with the assistance of compe
tent female teachers, to render it in all respects
worthy of patronage. For terms refer to

GOOD TESTIMONY.
The Louisville Courier thus Ppraks of Bull's Sarsaparilla:
Wu bare been shown, by Mr. .lohn Bull, proprietor of
that world-renowned preparation, "Bull's Fluid Extract of
Sarsaparilla," an original, genuine, and beautiful letter,
auldroncil to him by the accomplished lady of one of the
most eminent old physicians in the West, giving a detailed
amount of one of the most astonishing cures on record, per
formed alone by the use of "Bull's Sarsnparilla."
This most excellent and elthrming Indy had long suffered
front prolapses uteri, floor 1111,11 P, piles, and chronic disease!'
of the stonmelt and digestive organs, and derangement of
the whole system, attended with distressing cutaneous erup
tion. sick headache. and violent attacks of cramp. After
exhausting all of her husband's skill, and applying to many
eelebratixt medical gentlemen, both nt home nod abroad,
nod ids° using great quantities of "Townsend's fitinap.
rills," without the slightcst . rellef, she was induced to use
. -
"Joint Sarsapnrilla." And what was the happy
? After the use of o few bottles, a perfect and nom
a , rful rues—the Italy restored to perfect health, and to her
usual Bow of spirits.
Such letters as the one we speak of. most afford Mr. Bull
more real gratifleation, than mull the possenion of count
is, wealth. And whetter hr accumulates wealth or not
by the side of ids truly valuable Meilicine, being its author
glory and honor enough; and toe can say to the world,

Hayed ;no, human Ful,r!ng, than did Stephen Girard or
John Jacob Astor with. their millions."
RIEEIIMATISM =PM !
Let v.ho are suffering under the agonising tortures of
flieninatisiu rend the following, and see what may be done
tier them, if they will use the infallible remedy:
Usimirrows, Kr., May 12,1848.
MR. Jeer BULL: Dear .Sir,--For the last three years, I
have been afflicted with liheumndsm of the severest rhas ,
Refer. I was at times in the greatest ;agony of pain. I tried
every relovily I could procure for the disease; but found no
permanent relief until I was induced to use your prepara
tion of Sarsaparilla, which Me entirely cured lee of Rheu
matism, and greatly improved my general health more
than any medicine I ever need. I have been free from pain
for several months, and have no doubt the cure is perms
mut; awl I recommend It as the best medicine in use for
he umatism. 1811.151 BRIDGES.
It Is useless tee produce further teatime.) , in favor of this
great reniedy. It ban only to be tried and proved, to con
vince the public of its superior efficacy.
Notice to Females,
John Bull's Sarsaparilla is doe of the greatest female
meditines now in existence. In those numerous calves
where the constitution to debilitated, the nervous energy ie
lessened, when the efforts of nature are weak and deficient,
or are profuse and overwrveight, whey the fax in pale and
colorless, the strength feeble and yielding, the spirit trou
bled and depressed, the health broken, mind shaken, and
consequently the happiness destroyed—then Bull's Sarsa
parilla Ice sovereign remedy. It waists nature in the per
formance of her duty, braces the whole system, renews
permanently the natural energies, removes obstructions,
cheeks excesoes, creates pure and healthy blood, and imparts
health and happiness. Won, ladies generally to adopt the
I.w of thin Medicine, we would see far loon :coffering, disease
and onhappinexs among them than now exists, health would
take the place of disuse, Om rosy cheek would succeed the
pallid face: we should have smiles instead of team, and per
hap a happy long life to of one cut short by disease,
or made miserable by continued coffering and affliction.
At that critical period termed the "turn of life," which Is
often attended with co ncoct: danger, Bull's Sarsaparilla in
found to exert a most beneficial effect. All ladies approach
ing this crisis, should b., apprised of this fact, and avail
themselves of this valuable Medicine.
A BEASIFUL CLEAR SKIN,
flow we all admire a clenr,lwautiful, white thin, and o
rosy colored cheek. llow often do we see persons, not pos
sessing this "desideratum ECI devoutly to ho wished," re
sorting to cosmetics, lotions, washes, paints, and coloring
materials, to restore to them n semblance of what disease
bas deprived them of, and that, too, with great injury to
the skin. Sersaparilla Is the best Cosmetic) known.
It beautifies the skin by removing every particle of morbid
and diseased matter from the blood, making it pure, heal
thy and vigorous, giving activity to every minute vessel,
and changing the yellow and dark countenance to the
bloom nod freshness of youth. Ladies, abandon the use of
paints and mixtures, and use Bull's Sarsaparilla, the only
effectual remedy. "A word to the wise is sufficient," and
a hint to enough for the ladles.

I do hereby certify to the following facts:—
That I have suffered for five years past with
pain in my back, spine and kidnies, and never
received any relief but by bleeding, for a few
days only. Last November I got a bottle of
the Extract of American Oil, I treed• it inward
ly, and to my surprise it removed the complaint
in a short time. From what I have seen and
heard of its wondrous effects upon others in des
perate cases, I can freely recommend it, and be

and do believe it will dO all for what it is•so
highly recommended. C. COUTS.
LEWISTOWN, March 1850.
I never before gave a certificate, but this I
give with a clear conscience for the benefit of
sufferers like myself. I suffered with the Ery
sipelas or St. Antony's Fire, mixed with Tet
ter, so pronounced by my doctor, for 12 years.
The suffering I endured is beyond description.
At times all my hair came off my head. During
this time I had no relief for more than a few
days at a time. Last October 1 got a bottle of
the Extract of American Oil, used it inwardly
and outwardly, and to my great astonishment
and my neighbors, I got clear of it in a short
time, and to this time I have noticed its won
drous effects on other desperate complaints. I
do assure my friends and the public that it is
indeed a wondeTful thing for many complaints.
I invite all whochoose to visit me in Lewistown.

MANY and many a wife mimes years of bodily
suffering and of mental anguish, prostrate and help
less, embittering her life, that of her husband, and
hazarding the future welfare of her children, arising
from causes which, if known, would have spared the
suffering, the anguish to the wife, and to the hus
band embarrassments and pecuniary difficulties ltv
ing their origin in the mind being weighed down and
harassed in consequence of the sickness of the com
panion of his bosom.
How important that the causes should be known
to every wife, to every husband, that the dreadful
and harrowing consequences to the health and hap
piness of both may be avoided I Life is too short and
health too precious to admit any portion of the one to
be spent without the full enjoyment of the other.

"DAYTON, May 1, 11347.
"Ibt. A. M. MAURICEAU—My Dear Sir: The
Married Woman's Private Medical Companion,' for
which I enclosed one dollar to your address, came
safely to hand. I would not have troubled you with
these few lines, but that I am impelled by a sense
of gratitude, for myself and wife, to give utterance
to our sincere and heartfelt emotions.
"My wife hoe been perceptibly sinking for soma
three years or more, in consequence of her great an
guish and suffering some months before and during
confinement; every successive one more Red more
debilitated and prostrated her, putting her life in im
minent danger, and which woe. on the last occasion,
despaired of. I supposed that this state of things was
inevitable, and resigned myself to meet the worst.
At this time (now about two months) I heard your
book highly spoken of. as containing some matters
leaching my case. On its receipt and perusal, I can
not express to you the relief it adiaded my distressed
mind and the joy its pages imparted to my wife, on
learning that the great discovery of M. M. Dego
meaux provided a remedy. It opened a prospect to
me which I little conceived was possible. No pecu
niary consideration can ever repay the obligations I
am under to you for having been the means of im
parting to as the matters contained in ' The Married
Woman's Private Medical Companion.' But for
this, ere another year would have passed over my
head, in all human probability my wife would have
been in her grave, and my children left motherless."
