troubled with ringing in the ears and head when
asleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at sud
den sounds, and bashfulness, with frequent blush
ing, attended sometimes with derangement of
mind, were cured immediately.
A CERTAIN DISEASE.—It is a melancholy
facts that thousands fall Victims to this horrid dis
ease owing to the Unskillfulness of ignorant pre
tenders, who by the use of that deadly poison
Mercury, ruin the Constitution, causing the must
serious symptoms of this dreadful disease to make
their appearance, such as afibctions of the head,

Such persons before contemplating.

Birmingham Female Seminary,
The liberal patronage which this Sehool has
received in the past, encourages the proprietor
and friends of female education, to expect by
proper exertion to make it both a premanent and
important Institution; and no pains will by spar
ed to sustain its growing reputation.
Among other considerations which inspire hope
so to its future semis, the location is not unim
portant. Three years actual experiment has de
veloped a more philosophical, if not a truer reas- •
on for the existence of Birmingham than many
which have been ussigned—that it is the situation
fur a Female Seminary, surrounded as it is by
most romantic scenery—reth•ed—healthful—easy
of access and in itself a place where one might al
most grow wise in the study of Nature alone un
mocked by the works of Art.
The school year is divided into two Sessions of
twenty-two weeks each; the summer term com
mencing the lust Tuesday in April, the winter
term the last Tuesday in October.

CELEBRATED GERMAN BITTERS,
Prepared by
DR. C. M. JACKSON,
AT THE GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
120 Arch Street. Philadelphia.
Their power over the above diseasesis not ex
celled—if equalled—by any other preparation in
the United States, as the cures attest, in many
cases after skilful physicians had failed.
These Bitters are worthy the attention of inva
lids. Possessing groat virtues in the rectification
of diseases of the Liver and lesser glands, exer
cising the most searching powers in weakness and
affections of the digestive organs, they are withal,
safe, certain and pleasant.
READ AND BE CONVINCED.
From the "Boston Bee."
'rlie editor said, Dcc. 22nd
Dr. Ilonflands 'Celebrated German Bitters for
the cure of Live, Complaint, Jaundice, Dyspepsia,
Chronic or Nervous Debility, is de . servedly one of
the most popular medicines of the day. These
Bitters have been used by thousands, and a friend
at our elbow says he bad himself received an effec
tual and permanent cure of Liver Complaint from
the use of this remedy. We are convinced that,
in the use of these Bitters, the patient constantly
gains strength and vigor—a fact worthy of great
consideration. They are pleasant in fast and
smell, and can be used by persons With the most
delicate stomachs with surety, under any circum
stances. We are speaking aunt experience, and
to the afflicted we advise their use.
"SCOTT'S WEEKLY," ono of the best Literary
papers published, said Aug. 25
•'llß. 1100FLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS, mans
factunurby Dr. Jackson, are now recommended
by some of the most prominent members of the
faculty us an article of much efficacy' in cases of
female weakness. As such is the case, we would
advise all mothers to obtain a bottle, and thus save
themselves much sickness. Persons of debilitated
constitutions will find these Bitters advantageous
to their health, as we know from experience the
salutary effect they have upon weak systems."
MIRE EVIDENCE,
Tho lion. C. 1). IIixELINE, r of the city
of Camden, N. J., says
"HOC/FLAWS GLILMAN BITTERS .— We have
seen many fluttering notices of this medicine, and
the source from which they came induced us to
make inquiry respecting its merits. From inqui
ry we were persuaded to use it, and must say we
found it specific in its action upon discuses of the
liver and digestive organs, and the powerful in
fluence it exerts upon nervous prostration is real
ly surprising. It calms and streughtens the nerves
bringing them into a state of repose, making sleep
refreshing. .
"If Mg medicine was more generally used, we
are satisfied there would be less sickness, us from
the stomach, liver, and nervous system the great
majority of real and imaginary diseases emanate.
Have them iu a healthy condition, and you can
bid defiance to epidemics generally. This extra
ordinary medicine we would advise our friends
Who are at all indisposed, to give u trial—it will
recommend itselt It should, in !het, be in every
family. No other medicine can produce such ev
idences of merit."
Evidence upon evidence has been received (like
the foregoing) from all sections of the Union, the
also dim) yours, and the strongest testimony in its
litvor, is, that there is more of it used in the prac
tice of the regular Physicians of Philadelphia, than
all other nostrums combined, u fact that can easily
be esabliahed, and fully proving that a scientific
preparation will meet with their nluiet approval
when presented even in this form.
That this Medicine will cure Liver Complaint
and Dyspepsia, nu one can doubt after using it as
directed. It acts specifically upon the stomach and
liver; it is preferable to calomel in all bilious dis
eases—the effect is immediate. They can be ad
ministered to female or infant with safety and re
liable benefit at any time.
Look well to'the marks of the genuine

DIGESTIVE FLUID,
OR, GitsTnic .➢IJICL.
Prepared from Rennet, or the fourth
stomach of the ox, after directions of Baron
Liehig, the great Physiological Chemist, by J. S
Houghton, M. D. Philadelphia, Pa.
This is a truly wonderful remedy for Indigestion,
Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Liver Complaint, Consti
pation, and Debility, Curing utter Nature's own
method, by Nature's own Agent, the Gastric
Juice.
!,) , 'Half a teaspoonful of PEPSIN, infused in wa
ter,
will digest or dissolve, Five Pounds of Roast
Beef in about two Flours, out of the stomach.
PEPSIN is the chief element, or Great Digest
ing Principle of the Gastric Juice—the Solvent of
the Food, the Purifying, Preserving, and &intuits
ting Agent of the Stomach and Intestines. It
is extracted from the Digestive Stomach of the
Ox, thus forming an Artificial Digestive Fluid,
precisely like the natural Gastric Juice in its
Chemical powers, and furnishing a Complete and
Perfect Substitute tor it. By the aid of this
preparation, the pains and evils of Indigestion and
Dyspepsia are removed, just as they would be by
a healthy Stomach. It is doing wonders for Dys
peptics, curing cases of Debility, Emaciation, Ner
vous Decline, and Dyspeptic Consumption, sup
posed to be on the verge of thograve. The
Scientific Evidence upon which it is based, is in
the highest degree Curious and Remarkable.
SCIENTFIC EVIDENCE!
BARON LEIBIG in his celebrated work on
Animal Chemistry, says: "An Artificial Diges
tive Fluid, analogous to the Gastric Juice, may
be readily prepared tuo.o the meat and eggs, will
be softened, changed, and digested, just in the
same manner as they would be in the human
stomach."
Dr. COMBE, in his valuable writings on the
"Physiology of Digestion," observes that "a
dimitution of the due quantity of the Gastric
,Juice is a prominent and all-prevailing cause of
Dyspepsia;" and he states that "a ditinguished
professor of medicine in London, who was severe
ly afflicted with this complaint, finding everything
else to fail, had recourse to the Gastric Juice, ob
tained from the stomachs of living animals, which
proved completly successful."
Dr. GRAHAM, author of the &mous works
on "Vegetable Diet„" says : "It is a remarkable
fact in physiology, that the rtomachs of animals,
macerated in water, impart to the fluid the prop
erty of dissolving various articles of food, and of
effecting a kind of artificial digestion of them in
no wise different front the natural digestive pro
cess."
