A LITERARY 80MM-A meeting WBB held on Tuesday evening last,in the room of the High School building, for the put. pose of organizing a Literary Society. Mr. John J. Libhart having been called to preside and Dr. Landis appointed Secretary, a brief discussion arose on the importance or such societies in moulding the character and habits of a community, by infusing into the public mind a spirit of research after useful knowledge. A committee, consisting of Messrs. Russel, Spangler and Landis, was ap. pointed to report at the next meeting a Constitution and By-Laws for the gov ernment of the society, and also candi dates for the various offices. The next meeting will be held at the same place ( High School room) on Tuesday evening, January 23d, at 7 o'clock, when and where all the friends of education are respectfully solicited to attend and participate in the proceedings. The Rev. Mr. Russel has kindly con sented to address the meeting on that occasion, when a fall statement of the objects, intentions and uses of the soci ety may be anticipated. L. =I I We call attention to the adver tisement of the Duplex Elliptic or double Spring Skirt. Though a recent invention, it has become very popular, and is rapidly obtaining the preference over other kinds in use. The rods in it are comp ned each of two delicate and well•tempered steel springs, which are ingeniously braided together edge to edge, the lower rods heavier and having a double covering. This peculiarity of construction makes this skirt very strong and durable, and .also so exceedingly flexible that it rapidly adapts itself to the form of the wearer, and allows of any amount of doubling and crushing without injury to its shape. These skirts are unquestionably the lightest, most desirable, comfortable and econom ical ever made. These are advantages which ladies, who have experienced the discomfort and inconvenience• of pingle springs, will duly appreciate.

THIS Invention consists of Duplex (or two) Elliptic pure refined steel springs, ingeniously braided tightly and firmly •together t edge to edge, making the toughest, most flexible, elas tic and durable spring ever used. They sel dom bend or break, like the single springs, and consequently preserve their perfect and beautiful shape more than twice as long as any single spring skirt that ever has or can be Made. The wonderful flexibility and great comfort and pleasure to any lady wearing the Duplex Elliptic skirt will be experienced paiticularly in all crowded Assemblies, Operas, carriages, railroad cars, church pews, arm chairs, for promenade and house dress, as the skirt can be folded when in use to occupy a small place as easily and. conveniently as a silk or muslin dress. A lady having enjoyed the pleasure, com fort and great convenience of wearing the du plex elliptic steel spring skirt for a single day will never afterwards willingly dispense with their use. For children, Misses, and young ladies they ar superier to all others. The hoops are covered with 2 ply double twisted thread and will wear twice as long as the single yarn covering which is used on all Single steel hoop skirts. The three bottom rods on every skirt are also double steel, and twice or double covered to prevent the cover ing from wearing off the rods when dragging down stairs, stone steps, &e., &c., which they are constantly subject to when in use. All are made of the new and eegant 'corded tapes, and are the best quality inl ,, every part giving to the wearer the most graceful and perfect shape possible, and are unquestionably the lightest, most desirable, comfortable and economical Skirt ever made. ..„; WESTS' BRADLEY & CARY, Proprietenror the invention, and Sole Manufacture* 97 Chambers, and 79 & 81 Beade streets x New York.

HEADLE Y HISTORY OF THE GREAT REBELLION ! THE late rebellion stands out peculiar and extraordinary in human events; and the magnificent scale upon which the war has been conducted, constitute it one of the grand est and most brilliant chapters of the world's history. Mr. Headley, of all writers, is perhaps best qualified to portray the the stupendous feat ures of the mighty contest. His previous works on less momentous themes have placed him in the first position, as a graphic and pow erfui deleniator of war scenes and characters, and the magnitude and grandeur of the pres ent subject, impart to his pen the fire and vi gor of a yet more exacted inspiration, and fur nish ample scope for the highest exhibition of his peculiar genius for military . description. Under his powerful pen the stirring scenes of the War pass in review with the vividness and distinctness of a present and living reality; while his great talent for condeumtion ena bles him to embody everything of importance in a compass just suited to the public want. From no other source can so clear and com prehensive an impression of the grand march of events be obtained, so easily and agreeably as from Mr. Headley's work. Other histories have been issued before Grant's Report and other official documents were submitted to the government, and there fore unreliable. Mr. Headley has delayed the completion of this till those documents so es sential to authenticity and correctness could be obtained. The second volume, completing this work, will be issued it March, 1866. Agents wan ted to engage in its sale in every town and county in the United States. Liberal induce ments offered.

Blue Mass, and other preparations of Mer cury, actually proauce more suffering and death than the diseases which they profess to cure. And yet this corrosive mineral so de ntinced by the allopathic doctors, is prescri bed by them almost universally in Liver Com plaint, Consumption of Lungs, &c. THE MANDRAKE PILLS are composed entirely of roots and herbs ob tained from the great storehouse of Nature, and their_salutary effects will appear as soon as the medicine is brought to the test of a fair experiment, SCHENCK'S. MANDRAKE PILLS do not produce ar y nausea or sickness of the sternal) but when given for Dyspep sia, it may be proper to use them in connec tion with SCHENCK'S SEAWEED TONIC. By this judicious treatment the digestive fac ulties are speedily restored to their full vigor, and the worst cases of indigestion may be cured. When we reflect that the liver is the largest internal organ of the body, that to it is assign ed the important duty of filtering the blood and preparing the bile, that it is subject to many disorders, and that when it is diseased or inactive the whole body suffers syrapathet. jenny, it is not surprising that re medicine which can restore the healthy operations of the Liver Should produce wonderful changes in the general health, sal effect cures which may appear to be almost miraculous. Head ache of long continuance, severe pains in the side, breast and shoulders, aching of thelanbs, a feeling of general weakness and wretched ness, and other alarmlng and distressing symp toms, indicative of imperfect or disordered ac tion of the liver, are speedily removed by the use of SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS. Costiveness, piles, bitter or sour eructations, and that indescribable feeling of oppresston' mental anxiety, languor, lethargy. and de • pression of spirits, which unfit a man for the management of business and the enjoyment of life, are all relieved by the use of SCH EN C K'S MANDRAKE PILLS. Da. Sett xscx.—Dear Sir : I take pleasure in sending you a certificate in addition to many you have already received from suffer ing humanity. I can scarce ly find language sufficiently strong to eitpiess my heartfelt gratification of the wonderful cures your MANDRAKE PILLS and SEAWEED TON IC have effected in the entire cure of one of the most stubborn cases of the affection of the liver. For three years I suffered beyond de scription; all my friends, as well as myself, came to the conclusion that my time in this life was short. Such was the terrible condi tion to which I was reduced that life to me had become a burthen ; my whole system was in a state of inflammation; I could not eat, I could not sleep; my whole body was filled with pain ; swelling would arise in my wrists and ankles, rendering them totally useless. On several occasions 1 ,was attacked with a rush of blood to the head, which would fell me.to the ground, and I would be carried away for dead. I applied to several eminent physicians of our city, who administered all the medicines that they thought would reach my case, but of no avail. One of them said he could do no more for me, and advised me, as a last resort, to drink codliver oil. Not relishing the, horrid trash I declined to take it. Accident put your adver tisement in my hands. I called on you ; you examined me and told me the nature of my disease. You then ordered me die Pills .and Tonic with an observance of diet, pledging your word that in one week I would find my self another man.
