His remedies are mild, agreeable, and efficient, and operate in accordance with the laws of the animal economy. Doctor F. Smith is ready at all times to attend patients at their houses. Patients living at a distance can be accommodated with board and medical attendance at rood• orate prices at his dwelling, in Carlisle street, the house formerly occupied by Dr. Berluchy. Dr. Smith would also inform the public that his mode of treatment will perfectly remove the bad effects remaining in the sys tem, from the use of mercury or any other poisonous mineral. Medical men of the h:ghest distinction anti talent, such as Matthias, Alley, Cramp ton, Pearson, Abernethy, Carmichael, &c. alArm that chancres and huboes, ulcerations in the throat, together with diseases of the periosteura, tendons, cartilages, ligaments, fascia, and eruptions of a highly obstinate character,• are the consequence from the ad. ministration or use of mercury.

Few years lignite, and a good angel stood upon his distant watch-tower, looking with a troubled eye upon the far scenes of our troubled earth. A kindred spirit came sweeping hypan snowy pinion, and preferred the anxious salutation, "Watchman! -what o f the night? what ofthe-night?" "Clouds, many mid dark, begloom the landscape! A great people and strong have just freed themselves from the shackles of mortal tyranny, anil,are now bowing their willing necks to the yoke of a greater tyrant, a darker despot, the Demon of latemper• arm!? Darkness covereth the land, and gross darkness the people!" - The sad angel turned away, and sought Bald!) the far city of the BLEST! A lew years measured their circuit, and again the heavenly messenger passed the accustomed rounds; and as he marked the faithful sentinel still at his lovely tower, agnyi tie made the trembling salutation: "Nachman! what of the night? what of the night? "Brighter grows the lands'eapef. 'rho star of hope is rising! 'rho clouds of DEATH are vanishing! Thn darkened eyes are opcned! The sons of freedom have resolv ed they will again be free; and the monster is dragging his loathsome and wounded form back to the pit of devils!" 'The glad angel turned on joyous wing, • passed quietly through the boundless fields of other, bac k to the Paradise of God.— And there was joy in heaven, for mehy sin ners had repented, and many wanderers had sought sgnin the fold of PEACE! "Stop! No burlesque on that name!" Na. Enrron: 'On Saturday evening lain, I saw a company of young men at thecorn. er of Broadway and Chambers street, who seemed in a high state ofexciteMent. They had formed a jovial ring, and were singing some of the most popular national airs.— Across the street, in n shadow made by the ne*, building erected on the corner, and doge to a pest, still end motionless stood the watchman, either enchanted by the mu• sic, or unchained by a sense nf duty ro pre serve the peace, if an occasion should arise for his official action. A mong.other songs was one called for commemorative of Wash- won. "My washing done!" exclaimed one of the rowdies, in affected surprise.— '.Stopl" said a strong voice, just as a laugh at the attempted wit was beginning to raise; "Stop! No burlesque upon that name!"— Silence obtained for a moment; and then clear and loud rose the strain of grateful praise to Washingten! qiiisspontanochis reverence to the name of that great man, amidst scenes of revelry, reminded me of the infinite propriety of the third command. If the name of Washing ton deserves from us so much respect, how infinitely more important is it that the name of the Eternal should be reverenced! If the language of burlesque is at variance with those habitual sentiments of gratitude and admiration which we cherish towards the fattier of his country, how much more guilty is the language of irrevorenee when applied to the titles of the infinite GOD! -.0 IFX R ur TED L, 0 I•E: Many a fair and lovely girl can bear witness to the truth of the following lines from the last Knickerbocker : There is a grief which all have known, Who ever mourned a friendship flown ; And few but once have shed a tear, 13ewailing loss of token dear : The urn of sorrow marks the spot, Which speaks the widow's lonely lot, While Pity oft is seen to shed Her tribute at the orphan's bed. Hope hats her shadows, joy its gloom- . -- Yet suffer each a gentle doom, Compared with her whose lot must prove The pangs of unrequited love ! When after all that Woman's art Could do to curb that rebel heart ; With every plea of maiden pH& At length exhausted or defied, She feels 'tis idle to restrain The throb which tells—she loves in vain A PRIME ARGUMENT.--The Globe says we ought to have no paper money, because the Chinese Empire has delivered itself from the fatal fluctuations of the paper mo ney systens,and become a nation with a aim. pleolict,,h'ard money government!!! This is a rsetety argument for "a democrat" to preach! In China, they have no paper mo ney, no credit—and the consequence is the poor man is a slave--the laboring man gets about two cents a day for his work, and lives upon husk and crumbs that fall from the tables of the rich. This is such a state of things as would suit sub-treasurers right well. There are three things wanting to put the country in a good condition—and to these three things we will come at last: - A change of the notional administration, A National Bank; A Protective Tariff: These three thugs wonkt restore ns to the prosperous and happy times we enjoyed in 21920, before Gen. Jackson commenced hia experimehts. But we aro not yet ripe for the change.— We must first have the loco loco Sob Tree.

When we feel the curses of those things, and not before, we will be ready ler the re= quired and necessary change. Corriste Hera:d & Expositor.. On many accounts, we think our Volume must be received with great eagerness. As already intimated, there have been but few books ever offered to the world, whether of real or fictitious adventure, so rich to vari ed, thrilling, and wonderful incident. From the first sound of their axe on the borders of the wilderness, through all the successive stages of improvement, until the forest was graually cleared away, and other frontier settlements formed by other .but kindred ad , venturers, to be,i.,m.th,eir-4ern Ole scenes of wild and daring exploits, interposed to shield the first against the predatory incursions of a never.tiring foe, the original settlers of any given portion of the country whose ear ly history it is intended to illustrate, passed through so many strange and exciting events that the unadorned record of the life of any one of these back-woodsmen, appear far more like en ingenuorts romance than a so ber and veritable biography. We do not purport to give a hook made up entire!y of the memoirs of individual adventurers. For the most part of our volume is filled with only the most remarkable incidents, occur ing in the settlements, of which any account_ has been preserved. It is much to be re• gretted that the entire lives of many , more of the pioneers of civilization, are not re corded. A few such, however, are to be found in the following pages. And we may defy any reader of the least pretension to literary taste, to take up any one of fthese, the Life of Col. James Smith, for instance, with which our volume begins, and persu ' ing it as a mere story book, independent of its value as a record of very interesting events, end not pronounce that simple and artless narrative one of the most charming compositions he ever read. It is but re-; cently we heard one of our friends, (alas! now no more,) a gentleman of a remarka bly classic turn of mind, keenly olive to' all that is beautiful In literature, eAclairn, un consciously to himself, as he rose from the perusal of it, "The untutored Defoe!" We have often thought since how appropriately the term was applied. We see throughout the whole narrative, told in language al. , ways plain and simple as a child's, though in some places, it is true*, not quite gramma tically correct,the same minute yet tiresome, detail of circumstances, the same descrip tive manner of relating events as they ap pear to have occurred, which have made Robinson Crusoe a favorite with all, from the boy just beginning to read, or the unlet tered servant girl half spelling through its pages, up to , those most distinguished for learning and cultiVation of taste. But rich in wonderful, yet at the same time apparent ly natural incident, as this best production , of Defoe undoubtedly is, we deem it to be even surpassed in that respect by the hum ble sketch we havoiust venterred to compare , with it. And what has been said of this I first article of our %came, might be said al so, to a certain extent, of nearly every one that follows. We have referred to it as a specimen merely because of its place, and not because of any great superioty,etther in mutter or in manner, it peosesses, over a Dumber of the other articles, except that it is somewhat more' completaas a biography. Our whole book throughout abounds with scenes and adventures equally romantic,end many of them are described as artlessly and as well. N. Y. Evangelist.

In presenting this work to his country melt, the compiler feels that he has mista ken the views of A merican taste, and great. ly overrated the value attached to the con tents of his book, if it does not meet with a welcome reception. It would be strange, indeed, if at a period when even the most extravagant and frivolous creations of fancy find ready consumption in the perhaps grow ing appetite for the marvellous and roman tic, a nrirraiion of exciting :teems, known to be undoubted facts, and presented in the un adorned language of truth, should be less acceptable. If the admiration and sympa thy of readers can be so strongly enlisted in the historian and buffering that never ex isted save in the creative imagination oldie novelist,how much more readily and ration ally should their innsibilities be touched by the noble daring, the toils and sufferings of the pioneers, seeking, amidst ceaseless per il, to convert a howling wilderness into "a land flowing with milk arid honey," and pre paring the way for us, their successors and children,to sit down in peace under our own vine and fig tree, where there are none to make ub afraid. Indeed, what almost every one knows generally of the kind of life led by the first settlers in rho middle. and some carts of, the western states, will servo to convinc e h ue that our compilation must be it work o f tip little interest.

He may have soma general notion of brave men starting out, with their families, froth homes of se curity, and settling in little groups in the wilderness, erecting their log cabins in their clearings,& a rude stockade tort in the cen• tre of each of these little colonies, to which, at the alarm of an invasion, their wives and children were seen hastily flying—of the whole of one of these little settlements set • tied at times of extraordinary danger, and going from farm to farm, to plough their fields, or to cut down their harvest, their ri fles all the time at their sides, or ready to be seized at a moment's morning—of sava ges lurking in the woods. shooting down whoever ventured to go unarmed and alone Ito his labarohen rushing into the. undefen ded door, to kill or carry' into captivity all the inmates of the dwelling—of desperate conflicts between the white settlers and their savage foes, sometimes one party victorious, and sometimes the other—of fugitive Indi lans pursued into the heart of the wilderness, [and the captives they lea carried off, per ' haps the wives, children, brothers, or sis' ters of the pursuers, rescued—of other prig , oners, when pursuit was either unsuccess. ful or not made, sometimes making their escape by the wily, then chased by their disanpointed captors, and if.not again taken, wandering days end nights in the forest, without food or the means of procuring it, and nt length reaching their homes, per. haps only to find them desolate; sometimes less fortunate, bound to the stake, and expi. rm ., * in tortures ; and sometimes carried to the t. 'lndian villages, adopted into their fan3i., , , lies, and becomin g learned in their langung and traditions, their manners and customs, merles of life and warfare, and then, per haps, after long years or captivity, return. mg to their friends, and describing all the wonders they had witnessed during a sojourn among a strange and uncivilized people, But beyond these vogue generalities, how 1 few know any thing of the life those sets - tiers led. Yet who knows aught of that life does not long to know more? Who that has heard of any such incidents as we have-just enumerated, does not feel a leng, ing desire to hear them described at length, with all their attending circumstancea 7— , To gratify such a feeling as this, was one object of our compilation. Whether wo have succeeded to the satisfaction of our readers, it is for them to determine ; but for our part, we repeat, we would not know where to seek. whether in the pages of fic tion, or of history, a relation of events more romantic, or possessing a more absorbing interest, than many of the narratives we have given to the public. lVusaa•.ztrss ix LONDON.-It is not gen-t orally known that there are several religious establishments of Catholic Ladies in Lon don and its immediate vicinity, where they devote their lives to the education of the children of the indigent; the largest or which is in Clarendon Square,- 240 girls are clothed, fed and brought up as good and trust.worthy servants.
