If thine who suffer either Cohstipation,.ln 7

would use Dr. Radway's Regulating Pills, in
place of the icommon aloe pills, they world
avoid the unnatural habit of straining and
quickly rid themselves of the disease. . This
straiuing.that is &reed upon the patient when
at stool, is caused by the irritation of the tau
. ens membrane of the lower hoWels. Bear in
mind, that all of these common pills of aloes,
&c.. never dissolve in the stomach or `evert
the least influence on the liver, but are carried
to the lower bowels, and there, by their dras
tic. and unnatural influence occasion irritation
and instead of securing a natural movement
or evacuation, induce an irritating discharge,
which involves cramps, wrenching
. pains,
straining, tenesmus, frequently sending the
patient to' 'the water closet on futile errands.
DR. RADWAY'S PILLS, are the only safe
pills to take—theyact directly on the liver
and purify the blood. One to six boxes will
cure cry disease that the most popular of
pills are advertised to cure.
TUE ATLANTIC MONTIILY.—Trite thirteenth
volume of this American periodical begins
with the January number. Steadily increas
ing in popularity, since its present Publish
ers, Messrs. Ticknor & Fields, assnined • Its
i 1
management, it has now a circulation Aeater
than that ever reached by any American
Magazine of its class, and numbers among its
i •
contributors such names as Loagtellow, Haw
! thorne,• Emerson, Bryant, Agassiz, Hohnes,
Lowell, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and others
scarcely less eminent. Its stereotyped vei
-1 nines are a valuable repository of original
(papers en a great variety of subjects, and its
monthly issues have a genuine freshness and
fitness to the hour. If it is a . zoed test, as it
certainly is, of the standing of a magazine
that it attracts and introduces new writers,
the names of Ilig.ginson, of Gail Hamilton,
I and of the lamented Winthrop are evidence
enoughof what the Atlantic has thus eccotn
plislied. Nor can a better proof be given of
the popular estimation in Nfli"ch it is 'held
than the demand for a publication in sepa •
rate volumes of many of the serial papers
t hat first appeared in its pages, such as "The
Autocrat," "Elsie Venner,"'Agassiz' "Methods
of study in Natin . lal History," "The Minister's
rWooing," "Life in the Open Air," "Agnes of' .
Sorento," 'Out-Door Papers4"— Thoreau's
"Excursions," 'iThittier's "In 'War Time,"
and others.
As among the ciiefest merits of the Atlan
tic, also, let us not forget that it has honestly
held and freely declared its own opinions, on
other than literary questions, and that while
it has won for itself' in literature a posiiion
which no other American Magazine has
reached, it has consistently spoken true words
for Liberty and Progress , . In the present
crisis through which the country is passing,
ecru• intelligent American should know what
influences such minds as those of the con
tributors to the Atlantic are exerting upon
the progress 'of humanity. - •

The Secretary of the Treasury has not -yet
given notice of any intergion to withdraw this
pcpultir. Loan li•oin sale at Par, and until ten
days notice is given, the ittider:dgned,as "Gen
eral Subscription Agent," will continue to
supply- the public. I
The whole amount of the Loan authorized
is Fire Hundred Midlions of Dollars. Nearly
Four Hundred Millhons hare been already sub
scribed for and paid into thel Treasury, mostly
within the last seven months. The large de
mand abroad and the rapidly increasing home
demand for use as 'the basis for circulation by
National Banking Assoc l iations now organi
zing in all parts of the country, will in a 7ery
short period absorb the talance.. Sales have
lately ranged froL ten. to fifteen millions
weekly, frequently) exec ding three millions
daily; and as it is well lc. own that the Secre
tary has ample and unfailing resources Li the
Duties on Importsl and Internal Revenues,
and in the issue oil the - interest bearing Legal
Tender notes, it is jahno+ a certaiaty that he
will not fiud it nt i cessay, fur a long time to
come, to seek a ratirket for any other long Or
permanent loans, The Initerest and Principal
orwhich are payable in (GOLD.
Prudence and self interest must force the
minds. f those ethiternitlating the formation
of National Banking As..ociations, as well as
the minds of all who ha+ idle money on their
hands, to. the prdmpt conclusion that they
should lose no ti , e , in kubscribing for. this
most popular loan . It Will soon be beyond
their'reach, and a vanc to a handsome pre
miuth, as was tne resu t with the " seven--
thirty" loan, when it was all sold and could
no longer be subseribed jfor at par.
It is a Six per cent I oan, the Interest and
Principal payable l an coin, i thus yielding over
Nine per cent per annum at the present rate
of premium on coin.
The GOvernment requires all duties on Im--
ports to be paid li cola'; those duties have
for a long time pa $t amolunted to over a Quar
ter of a Millionof Dollar l s Daily, a sum neatly
three times greater than that required in the
payment of the interest.ion all the s'-20's and
other permanent loans. 1 So'that it ii hoped
that the surplus loin in the Treasury, at no
distant day, will enablA , the United States to
resume specie payments, upon all liabilities.
The Loan is called 5-20 from the fact that
700 750
whilst the, Bonds may rim for 20 Years yet the
Government has 4 right to pay them off in
Gold at par, at any timid after 5 years:
The interest is paid half yearly, viz : On
the first days of November and May. ••
Subscribers can have Coupon Bonds,
which are payable to bearer, and are $5O
$lOO $5OO and $lOOO ; or Registered Bonds
