Triumphant has beau its pro grew; to its present sphere of usefulness. It has surmounted obstacles before which quaker) , sinks paralysed—and has gained for itself a repu tation which neither rimming,. nor' flippant sordid counterfeiting apothecarici can ever injure. These charlatans nevertheless no assail it with the malignant shafts of their despicable envy, and which rebounds upon themselves with a power each day on the increase, until they themselves will be covered with the slime of their own mann facturing. They can no more injure the reputa tion of BRANDRETH'S PILLS than they can lay their hands upon the sun. - How TO BE SECURE TIMM COUN'TEETEITI. Never to purchase Brandreth's Pills iVithout be ing positively sure that the person' selling has a copperplate certificate of Agency, and 0 .7. observe it has been renewed—no CERTiFICATE BE. ING ANY GUARANTEE AFTER TWELVE MONTHS FROM DATE that Pills sold by the holder are genuine. All Pills having Wm. Brandreth on the label, and George Hodgkinson on the edge. are counter feits, and made to DECEIVE THE PUBLIC and evade the law at tho same time. These, and indeed ♦LL counterfeit Pills, if used according to the direction of my Pills, are calcu lated to DESTROY LIFE. They are made by men having no standing or respectability, without habitation or name—perfectly careless of conse quences, provided money is obtained. (Extract from Dr. Ws address to Citizens of U. S.] And be careful to remember that I have never authorised any Doctor, Druggist, Apothecary, or Pedlar in the United States to sell my Pills. These contemptible Pznsoars universally sell counterfeits. Never forget that this class, Doctors. Druggists, Apothecaries, and Pedlars are the men who sell counterfeits, and that all Tradesmen who aro•made agents, have each of them a COPPER PLATE certificate of Agency, signed in writing with a pen by me; and which certificate requires renewal every twelve months, it being no guaran tee for more than one year from dote—observe the date is not WRITTEN, it is COPPERPLATE.

The Lady's Book has al ways been noted for the purity of its con tents; that marked distinction which char. acterizes it shall still be preserved ; indeed, with such conductors, it will be impossible to go astray.

Contrary to this, the proprietor of the Lady's Book • announces that he will publish an immense edition, with which he hopes to supply all those who will favor him with orders, corn. mencing with the January number. ft will be seen by thi. advertisement that eve. ry effort has been made by the proprietor of this work to make it superior to any oth. er in America, and as a New-Year's Gift, the Lady's Book is probably the most pro: per that could be desired for ladies, edited by their own sex and assisted as the editori. al department is by the pictorial embellish. merits, it is positively the Boudior comp.rn• ion. ta: There are other publications that ady .q. tise Fashion Plates. The publisher of he t .i. the Lady's Book wishes it to be distitietly understood that the principal fashions in his work are colored, and in every number, which is not the case with any other work published in this country. Uncolored Plates of Fashions, also monthly. This is a nov el feature in the work, and as it is no great expense to give plates of fashions without coloring, the publisher will give from three to six figures each month, in addition to the three colored—this will make in all ge nerally nine figures of fashions monthly.— Lace patterns and patterns of embroidery will be published .at regular intervals.— These beautiful ornaments (particularly the former) have given great satisfaction. The Musical Department is under the-su perintendence of G. Osborne, than whom no person is more capable of doing it justice. The Literary Department is placed -un der the superintendence of Mrs. Sarah J. Hale and Mrs. Lydia H. Sigourney. Two ladies so well known to the world, that to mention their names in connection with a ny publication is at once a guarantee of its morality. virtue, and utility. Of their ca pability to conduct the Lidy's Book it is presumed no person will doubt, and thspro prilltor mentions with pleasure that no Eng lish or American Magazine can publish, in connection with its Literary department two names so celebrated in the world of let tars. Fac great deal of curiosity is often expjessed to see the Chirography of celebrated persons. We shall endeavor, as far as lies in our power to , gratify this feeling, by giving - from aim; tot ime correct imitations of -thoomost celebrated Female writers of the day. Genera ,Features.—Literature, Tales, Essays, Legends, Romantic incidents in History, Extracts from the old' Poets, Reviews, Female Education, Embellish ments, Fashions, colored and uncolored, Lace, Embroidery, Fao,Similies, Music, &c.

The January and succeeding numbers will be printed so an entirely new type,cast expressly for the Work, and will be found, on inspection to be a truly beautiful letter. not too small to be read with ease, nor too large to prevent the usual quantity of mat ter given in each page.
