If. O/rretpondenc* of the Commercial Aiveriiter. A Vl*lt to the Mammoth Cave. Babbex Coi-stt, Kr., Dec. 8, 1851. I am a hundred mile* from Louisville, in the midst of a Kentucky wild ernes*, waiting with all patience for the stage to take me on my return trip from the “ Mammoth Cave.” Surrounded by brandy drinking “Comcrackers,” it is quite a question whether I succeed in giving yon a description of one of the most wonderful of natural curiosities; one which being seldom visitod by persons from the East, is regards there with the vaguest ideas. Leaving Louisville on the morning of December 2, two long oold hours before daybreak we rolled for nineteen Honrs over the muddy, rough turnpike, in a miserable stage coach, obliged to alight and walk up and down steep hills and river banks, until I heartily despised pleasure travel ling, and wishing a thousand times I usd sailed quickly down the Ohio, without risking life nnd limb to see a mere cave in the rock. My travel ling companions were a returned Mexican volun teer, two'disgusting bull-dog puppies, two returned Californians, anda travelling agent for a New York dry goods house. Perfumes or cigars and whiskey math the stage most uncomfortable, and right glad was I, bruised and wearied with the ride, to creep into an almost frozen bed at this little country ho tel. After sleeping until late the next morning, and devoting sorae noum to endeavors to throw off the effect* of the preceding day's hard work, I hired an old string-halted and wmd-broken horse, and crowding some few articles into a pair of bor rowed saddle-bags, galloped through the keen wind, over hills, n distance of seven miles to the cave. 1 was soon seated before a smoking supper at a good and most comfortable inn. The next morn ing early, taking with me “ Stephen,” an intelli gent slave belonging to the plantation in which the cave is situated, who lias acted as guide for fourteen years, and himsslf discovered many ofits hidden wonders, armed with lights and provisions, I started to explore this world-famed cave rn. Pass ing through a romantic gorge in the hills, and ra pidly descending towards Green River, we soon discovered the yawning chasm, its aides disfigured by the remains of saltpetre works, erected during the “ last war.” Lighting our lamps and carefully guarding them from the cold outer air which rush ed into the aperture, we passed rapidly for some three or four hundred yards through an avenue called the Narrow*. Here throwing ofT my heavy ooat, I put on a rough but light roundabout. En tering the main avenue, cut through the solid rock, forty to fifty feet wide and forty high, wo aoon reached the “Church,” a fine room, capable of holding some thousands of people. Its walls arc almost circular: a shelf jutting from the side forms the pulpit; ana a well-sliapea space behind a choir and organ loft. It is covered by a dome of rock, seventy feet high in the centre. Between this room and the opening of the cave the walls and ceilings are covered with myriads of bats, which liavo taken up their Winter quarters, and are scarcely yet torpid. They fill the air with horrid sounds, utid add vastly to tho dismal feel ings awakened by these gloom passages. The eye, unaccustomed to tho strange dull light of the torches, fails at first to appreciate the full size and dimensions of the avenues, domes and spacious halls which crowd upon one's notieo, aud it is not until after passing “ tho Church” that tho lofty ceilings and deep shaded sides become distinctly visible. Passing through several largo halls, very similar to the one doscribed, wo come to a sudden angle, where in bold relief from the wall stands out a fair representation of a largo steamship’s stern, called the “ Great Western.” The wonder ful resemblencca to objecta In tho world above are not (infrequent in tho' cave. Just before entering “the Church,” some distance from the pathway, stands an immense rock shaped much like a hung coffin, fifty feet long. On tho top lies the figure of a giant on his back, with arms fylded on liis chest in the quiet dignity of doatli. Passing through the “ ball room” we leave the grand avenue, and turning to the right pass for a quarter of a mile through a narrow channel called “ Fat Man’s Mis ery”,—so called from the utter impossibility of one possessing mammoth dimensions passing through ft.. Leaving this passage way and jumping from rock to rook, clambering down deep pits nnd rug ged precipices by means of rickctty laddors, we oomo to the “ Stops of Time.” Itosconding these, and passing through the “ Vulo of Humiliation,” we leave the “Head Sea,” a deep dark pool of water, on our right, and step carefully past tho “ Side Snddlo” and “ Bottomless Pits." The aidos of these are protected by rude railings, nnd as the guido lights up. with the fitful glare of oiled paper,' their seemingly unfathomable depths, |dnrk images of Christian’s “Valley of tlio Shadow of Death ’ flit across the imagination, and one hurries onward. Discarding Cnarons’ boat, we crossed the river Rtyx by means of a natural bridge of rocks, steep and almost dangerous in tho centre. Looking down eighty feet below us in tho gloomy depth rolled tho durk waters of the river. Descending a long hill wc camo to the banks of the Lethe. Hero entering tho boat we paddled down tho stream somo hundreds of yards, and crossed to tho other side, fastened our eanoe to tho hank. After a fatiguing walk of scarcely half a mile, wo came to “ Echo river,” formorlv callod, most inappropriately the River Jordan, llcrc pla cing our light in the prow of the boat, we push oif into the stream, and stopping, glide under an arch way of rook and enter an almost fairy grotto. For nearly a mile the rivor winds through this grotto, the dome like ceiling meeting thirty feet above our heads. Never was my mind filled with such wild, unutterable thoughts ns whilo gliding down tho deep, quiet boßom of this river. Shut out by miles from the outer world; surrounded above and on each side by rook; below mo dark water; the strange glare of lights, nnd our own gliost-liko appearance, all conspired to make mo forgot myself as on inhabitant of earth, aud transport me to tlio regions of dream land. You can have no idea of the effect of music on this rivor. Stephen had a strong clear voice and the echo of liis songs lingered and reverbornted in sweetest oadoucos, thon died slowly away iu the distant windings of the stream, growing" sweeter every moment. In the hour I spent there I seemed to live weeks, and would not for any consideration lose the memory of those strange moments of de light. Passing tho river wo left to our right a beautiful cascade, and wandered through alaby rinth of grand avenues aud gloomy, lofty domes and chambers. I could spend hours in describing their beauty and grandeur. Wo came out into a bright glowing moonlight in the ovening, well wearied, but richly repaid for a walk of twenty-two miles through the mysterious passageways. I spout a pnrt of the next morning in exploring’other chambers of the cave, one ol which, the “ Star Chamber,” must not bo forgotten. Imagine a deep gorge in the mountain ; perpendicular walla rising on either aide, separated from each other by a dis tance of one hundred foet; nnd yourself on a dark clear night standing in its depths ; walls on either side a hundred and fifty feet high, and tlio stars shining clearly over hea’d—and you have a fuint idea of this chamber. The high black ceil ing is dotted here and there by little pieces of lime stone, which, glittering in the torchlight, seem like stars glittering in tho clear dark sky. 1 think tho Mammoth Cave one of tho most beautiful, and at tho same time awful wonders of tho world. As one listens at Niagara to the deep roar of rushing waters, or secs the mad crested waves dashing their ftiry on the storm boating oecean, his soul is filled with tlioir grandeur ana sublimity, and he sinks into insignificance. But here he fa ushered into tlio secret chambers of tho earth, aud seoins to dive into the unsearchable mvsteries of nature. Ills soul is spell-bound, and he drinks iu the gran deur, and awfhluess of tlio varied scenes, until ho eeems initiated into tho deepest workings of crea tion. Happy he who can look from nature to nature’s God, aud read the power and might in all His works. I visited also another beautiftU cave, the “ White Cave,” but cannot now describe it. T*a.—A writer in the New York Journal of Commerce speaks of an attempt to introduce the cultivation or tea, coffee, indigo, &c. iuto this country, towards which some SIBOO have been subscribed, and 740 acres of valuable laud devoted, he says : “ Tea is produced aud manufactured in China at a cost of 7 cents per pound. In the Assam and Ringphoo countries, it costs 2 to 8 cents per pound. In Java, tho planter sells liis tea to the Dutch Government (who advances him money for cul tivation! for 5 cents per pound. The consumers of tea in America pay 60 to 100 cents per pound, in England 100 to 150 cents per pound. Tho toa that both countries consume is miserable stuff, having but a sprinkling of genuine tea with the spurious teas of tho seaboard of China. The tea plant is one of the hardiest plants thero is. The Genuine teas of China are produced from the 28th egrees of north latitude upwards ; the 29th and 80th degrees are the districts from which the green and black teas arc exported. These districts are subject to very severe treat and heavy snow. The United States is in every way adapted to the production of tea. Indigo can be produced to any amount in this country ; and for one third the ex pense that it costs in Last India. The exports of tea from America uiav become more important than auy ether ot her staples. A person who uses tea once a day will consume 7t£ pounds in the year, nnd twice a day 15 pounds a year. The import of tea into England varies from 50 to 57 million pounds, of which some 47 millions are consumed in the United Kingdom. The tea that coats less than 7 cents per pound, and sold at ( anton on an average of 20 per cent, per pound, is sold to the consumers at 100 to 150 cents per pound. Therefore, the great bulk of the people * t .? a ®. lt .i and probably not more than 5,0(5),- 000 of the inhabitants out-of 8,000,000 make use of twice*!'dav* t * lo * e "' 10 do ** generally do so If tea couid be had iu England at a fhir price in proportion to the cost andtf f.Ur quality, it would not be too much to sav the con sumption would be equal to six pounds 'aLrnTor eoroe 130.000,y00pounds. The consumption would morale in this country, mid in allnarts of thn workL In South Australia the people^™l pounds per head. The Chinese use at it all hours ■ and so would the people of all the east, could thev procure it. The quality of tea cannot be appreciat ed by that how exported from China; nor can the trade naturally extend, under present circumstan ce*. in this country. For instance, the import of coffee is some 146,000,000 pounds; that of tea varies from 20,000,000 to 23,000,000 pounds. The ease would be the reverse if a good or fair quality of tea could be had. The expense of introducing tea, indigo, and coffee plants, and other exotics, as set forth, may be 87,000 to 88,000.” Rpssu.—Rev. Dr. Baird in his lecture at New ark, on Monday evening, said that Russia had a total population of 67,000,000 —of which 54,000,- 000, are in Europe. Or the whole number 45.000,- 000 are serfs ; 20,000,000 belong to the Emperor. They are sold with the lands. There are no serfe in Poland or Finland. The design of the present Emperor is to abolish serfdom, and the lecturer remarked that if he lived 80 years, he would do it, and added, that if he accomplished that, humanity would pardon many of his bad deeds. The rev enue of Russia is $180,000,000, and the debt ia $600,000,000. The New York Crystal Palace. We copy the following account of the projected exhibition in New York, from the Daily Time*, of the 81st ult. The public has been inquisitive for a long time concerning tbe projected “Exhibition of all Na tions” to be lioldcnat New kork in the Spring, snd are yet in the dark. The New Yorkers are behind the Londoners in correct information, as it appears bv a late paper “that plans and designs for an exhibition building at New York have been prepared by Joseph Paxton, the great artist of the Glass Palace, which have been exhibited to and approved by Her Majesty, and attracted mush at tention at the London Exchange.” That an exhibition will be had in this city, aßd that a building of glass and iron is to lie erec ted for tlio purpose, has been pretty generally un derstood, from the action of tuc city council in the matter of the petition of Mr. E. Riddle for the nse of Madison Square. Being a resident in the neighborhood of the Square, and feeling some interest in the subject, I have taken considerable trouble to ascertain what the proposed exhibition is to be, who ore tiie real proprietors of it, and what the probable element* of its success in New York. The result of the in quiry has been the conclusion that the objection raise'd by the residents on the Square against tbe location of the building there, would not liave been urged so warmlv, had they correctly under stood the objects of the Exhibition and tho nature of the building to be erected ; and it would ap pear to be for the interest of Mr. Riddle and asso ciates—now that the use of Reservoir Square lias been given them by the corporation—that they should*acquaint the public with it* true features. The idea of an Exhibition of the iudostry of all nations, to be held in this country, is not a new one. The present exhibition was projected in part at the suggestion of certain prominent exhibitors at the Crystal Palace, who were desirous of ship ping their productions to the United Sautes, if a good and safe repository were afforded them, and with an ultimate prospect of sale, rather than re turn them to tlieir distant point* of manufacture. Some of the choicest works of art from France— the Zol-Yeireu and Prussia—are boxed ready for shipment. Prince Albert lias entered warmly into the plan, and ha* proposed shipping to Mr. Kiddle twenty five or thirty of his most valuable pieces of statuary and painting. The great work in bronze, the famous Amazon by Kiss of Berlin, has been purchased by the gen tlemen associated with Mr. K., and only waits the completion of the building to be forwarded to this country. The rare nnd coetly shawls from the East Indies, and many of the most valuable articles sent to Loudon from a distance, are ready for trans shipment to New York. [1 learn that Mr. Riddle, since his arrival in this country has received 700 applications from Lon don and the Continent for a space in tlio Exhibi tion.] The articles which would he shipped here are from points so remote that in till probability they never could again be collected. They arc the choicest works of tbe choicest artists in t lie world. Our mechanics are thus afforded an opportunity of seeing the works of the best European artists, and of measuring tlieir abilities by them. The exhibition docs not then propose to be a rivul, but a continuation of the former, and the glory which attached to the one will be transferred to the other. If the mechanics of our country arc permitted to examine what has been shown as specimens of the best productions of the best workmen of the world, they have a standard by which to form their own judgment, and to be better prepared for a trial at some future world’s Fair, with more pros pects of a successful competition. Without such a standard, no just idea can lie formed of the abili ties of the cunning artisans they have to contend with. After the contributions from abroad shall bo de posited, our countrvineii are afforded an opportu nity of placing beside them tlieir own works, and of exhibiting, if they choose, the might instead of the weakness of America. The Rights of Women.— The Rev. Dr. Dewey, in a lecture bofore the Mercantile Library Associ ation,At New York, on Monday evening, on the subject of reform and progress, alluded in the fol lowing tonus, ns reported by the Tribune, to the subject of woman’s rights: I believe, said the lecturer, that woman has been deeply wronged by many customs of society. It is not only among the Indians and Hottentots that the sacred privileges of womanhood have been grossly outraged. \\ oinan was not bom to lose her own identity in the will of another. I have never felt willing in performing the marriage ceremony, to use the word obey, in reference to tlio wife. True, tlio Apostle Paid said, Wives, obey your husbands; but that was in an imperfect state of society; and in the present age of light and refinement, we should not insist on tlio command of the Apostle. Wedlock is a state of ntire reciprocity, and differ ence of opinion should be settled by’mutual for bearance and love, not by arbitrary compulsion. Nor should tho earnings of a wife be left in the 1 lower of n dissipated husband to squander upon tin vices. Let woman receive tho benefit of a wise and complete education ; let her pecuniary rights be respected, although two independent p’roperty liolders in the same family may not be convenient; but Ist her not be taken out of the domestic sphere, to engage in masculine pursuits. Some would wish to sec women in our legislative assemblies. But Ilaaven save us from thnt. Tho legislature is bad enough already. Introduce woman into that scene of turmoil and conflict, with all her delicacy, sensitiveness, and enthusiasm, and you would have a spectacle like that of a house in flames fed by the most volatile and inflammable oils. Some would liavo woman a public teacher, a judicial functionary, nnd wliv not a captain or a commodoro as well; but nature lias destined her to the sphere of maternity; her peculiar charge Is tlio rearing of children; and her indoor occupations induce that softness of nature which unfits her for the ruder pursuits of public life.” The I’bkji dick of History. —The sth and 6th volumes of Lord Mahon’s History of Eugland are just published. They commence at the year 1763 and dose with the year 1770, and comprise, of course, as the principal theme, the American Revolution—tho rise nnd progress of the War of Independence. “One point in the American War,” says tlio Spectator, “ Lord Malion brings out quiotlv and impressively—the personal false hood of Franklin, aud often the brutality of the Americans at large.” Hero will be a chance for our American reviewers nnd orities. “ Tho per sonal falsehood of Franklin !” It will take the affidavit of more than one lord to make that credi ble. Traveling in Europe. —Tho Kev. Mr. Odeulieim cr, rector of St. Peter’s church, Philadelphia, writing from Constantinople, says: “ It is loss than two months since we left Phila delphia, and we have seen (besides places of less noto) Liverpool, London, Durham, York, Lincoln, Peterborough, Ely, Dover, Ostend, Bruges, Ghent, Cologne, tho Rhine, Coblcntz, Maveuce, Hanover, Hamburg, Berlin, Ilnlle, Leipsic, Dresden, Prague, Vienna, Trieste, Venice, Anconin, Brindisi, Corfu, Cepluilonia, Zente, Patras, Corinth, Athens, Smyr na, and Constantinople. Cathedrals, palaces, paintings, and seonerv; men, manners, customs, and languages, have all passed under our notice, and although I make no pretensions to an elaborate investigation into either of these departments, nev ertheless, I have observed enough to give mo sub jects of reflection for life.” Daguerreotypes by the Drummond Light.—We remarked yesterday upon an experiment made by Mr. Whipple in' taking daguerrotypes by the Drnminond light. Since writing, we have seen another specimon takon by the Bame light, by Mr. Whipple, which is highly successful, and exhibits many advantages over daguerreotypes takenfby sun light. The former light boing more uniform and more under the control of tho operator, ho can mea sure his effects with a nicety impracticable in the other instance. The daguerrootypo before ns shows an effect of light and shade, and a uniform distri bution of tint, such as we do not remember to have seen before in a daguerreotype.—7 Yanscript. Large Cargoes. —The British ship Beejapore, Captain McLoy, cleared at this port yesterday for Liverpool by I). Camion, Jr., with 4,630, bales of cotton weigning 2,346.410 pounds, and valued at $178,258.08. This is the largest cargo ever loaded at this port. The American ship Ticonderoga, Capt. Bovle, also cleared at the same time with 8,625, bales, wighing 1,842,882 lbs, or an average of per bide and of the value of $180,777.22. The Br. ship Greenock, cleared on Thursday for the same destination with 8,879 bales weighing 1,949,650 jHiunds and valued at $140,788.87. The total exports to Liverpool during the past week amount to 20,718 bales, of which 10,604 cleared yesterday.— Mobile Register 81s< alt. Drought in the Country. —A friend from Lib erty couutrv informs us hat the planters have great difficulty in getting water enough for their cattle, many ot them having been obliged to draw it from wells for a long time past. The fire is also doing much damage in the woods, burning trees, fences, Ac., and one day last week, two negroes belonging we believe, to Mr. Bean, were burnt to death. They were engaged in fighting fire and were driven to a deep ditch for shelter, where thev thought themselves safe, but the fire surrounded them in such away that they could not escape.— Savannah Republican. Cost of Telegraphic Operations.— lt is stated in the February number of Appletons’ Mechanics Magazine, a valuable journal, that the extent of telegraphic lines, in the United States and Canada, exceeds 12,000 miles, involving a capital of more than three millions of dollars. To work these lines costs annually 720 tons zinc, worth $.17, 000 ; more than a million pounds of nitric acid, worth $117,000; and $27,000 worth of mercury, besides a considerable value in sulphuric acid. <fce. On the line from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati alone, there were transmitted in the year 1850,864,559 paid dis putohes, and the revenue received was $73,278. Pennsylvania Coal. —Authentic statistics, re cently procured, show that the amount of bitumi nous'coal mined in Pennsylvania during the year 1851 was nearly 2,400.000 tons, and of anthracite nearly 4,900,000. These statements include not only the amount sent to market, but also the amount consumed by familiesj maiiu&eturing es tablishments, railroads, &c., in the coal regions. The aggregate shows an entire product of coal, both anthracite and bituminous, m Pennsylvania, during the year, to have been 7,800,000 tons. This is a great product, and probably few, even in Pennsylvania itself, were aware of the extent of our coil trade. Immense as it is, however, com pared to the recent origin of the business in this Mato, it is nothing like as large as it would be if Western Pennsylvania possessed adequate facili ties for taking her coal to market. There are many counties in that district of the State where coal is abundant and casilv mined, but is little worked, or not worked at all, because no improve ments exist within reach by which it tarn be con veyed to a profitable mart.—TorfA American.

CHARLESTON Feb. 6.— Cotton.—TUa article was very much neglected during the first two days of the present week — tlie demand was quite limited, and some 1,800 bales were picked up here mil there, on terms showing a decided ten dency in favor of purchasers. On Monday the demand for the article had materially increased, but the sales, which com prised 1,500 bales, certainly established no higher rates than were previously paid. On Tuesday the market opened with • good demand, and during the day some 8,000 bales were disposed of, at a range of prices that holders could not pre viously realise. On Wednesday, however, it again relai»ed into a quiet state—only 500 bales having changed hands— and the extreme rates of the previous day were not sustained. Yesterday tin demand was rather active than otherwise, the sales having reached fully 1,900 hales, at corresponding pri ces.

REUBEN RICH’S PATENT CENTRE VIRONENT WATER WHEEL. Manufactured at the Montgomery Manufacturing Com pany's Iran Works. MONTGOMERY, - * ALABAMA. Ti rK RESPECTFULLY call the attention of Manu \ \ facturera and Mill owners to the following response from Mr. Rich, the Patentee of the above celebrated Water Wheel. Vendors of Patents frequently attempt to introduce their articles to the public with high sounding promises and loud praises, which mean nothing. Mr. Rich, on the contrary, has always been ready and frequently offered to test the ca pabilities of his Wheel against all others, under any named forfeiture. Ilis challenges have never been accepted. He now accepts the challenge of others, and presents even more tempting offers. We are prepared t o enter into the test for him, and will at any time, advance the required amounts' If gentlemen intend to “show their faith by their works’ let them come forward. „ Montgomery, April 2,1851. GINDRAT A CO. BEWARE OF HUMBUGS. Mv attention having been called to an advertisement in your paper, over the signature of Jagger, Treadwell A Ferry, challenging all other wheels, I now declare myself prepared to accept the challenge upon all the grounds specified, nam ing SSOO as the sum upon each point. Ist. 1 will bet SSOO that no other wheel, patented or not, will give out aa large a per coinage of power under a like head and volume of water." 2d. That no wheel can be more durable. Bd. That no wheel can be more simple. 4th. That none is cheaper. sth. That no wheel is more steady. Gtli. That the Rich Wheel is wholly superior to the Yande wnter Wheel. Aud again. There being those who are disposed to question the fact that the Rich Wheel discharges but half its meas urement of apertures, I will bet SI,OOO that the discharge docs not exceed one half the apertures on a well constructed and adjusted Rich Wheel, actual experiment having de monstrated that it discharges in reality but 2-sths of the aper tures, so that a wheel measuring “400 inches in its discharge apertures" really vents less than 200 ! The depth of the water in the tail race, is no criterion for estimating the quantity discharged, unless reference is had to the speed with which it runs off. For example: from the ordinary flutter wheel under 10 feet head, the water runs ofT at the rate of 18 to 20 feet per second. From my wheel, under same head it runs off at less than 1-2 of this speed, and from this consequent slowness of motion, a thousand gallons per min. from my wheel, would create as much depth in the tail race as four thousand from the flutter wheel from which the water runs with quadruple rapidity. Bear in mind, therefore, that unless speed is regarded, the depth in the tail race is no criterion whatever of quantity, and tliat the only true estimate is to ascertain what aperture, alongside or under the same heal and pressure with the wheel, will exhaust a given number of gallons of water in the same space of time. REUBEN RICH. P. S. —Having just learned that the Agen lthe Yands water Wheel represent that my Wheel dltcha-ges even more than its aperture; now to test their sincerity, 1 will bet them or any other person who may question that the discharge o mv wheel is more than half its apertures, as follow s ; Ist. $5,000 to 2,000 that it does not (as the Yandewater Agents c'ainri vent more than its apertures. 2d. $2,000, that it does ~ discharge equal to its aper tures. Sd. SB,OOO to $1,500, that it don't discharge two-thirds its apertures. 4th. SI,oCO, that the discharge Is not one half the aper tares. 6th. $1,500, that the discharge is but four-tenths the ap ertures. And then I will present the acceptor of the above bets, ssoo, on his depositing the money to cover them, with SI,OOO to cover expenses of trial, which the winner will be entitled to, in one of the Augusta Banks, where I will as promptly ■T.t. » corresponding deposits, and,again, I will bet any sum that the Yandewater Wheel, with some apertures as mine, discharges one third more water.

THE TRUSTEES of the Mount Parou Academy have the pleasure to anuounce that they have secured the services of Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Neely, of Augusta, for the present year, whose eminent qualifications and long expe rience in teaching are fully sufficient to insure the utmost success to the enterprise, and give a high-toned impetus to that exalted spirit of Education now so universally preva lent in our country. It is due to Mr. Neely to state, that he is a graduate of Trinity College, Dublin, where he received the first distinc tions of his Class; that he has had fifteen years of practi cal experience, and brings numerous letters of warm ap proval from former employers. Mrs. Neeiy is a graduate of the Staunton Female Semi nary, Ya., and from long experience gives every assurance that she is eminently fitted for the duties of her station. The Trustees have the most sanguine hopes that the In stitution will b« permanently established, and are determin ed that it shall lie inferior to none in point of Educational advantages, as they will employ Teachers of the highest at tainments only.

THE PRESENT SESSION will terminate on the 2Tth FEBRUARY, and the Summer Session commence MARCH sth, to continue five months. The advocates of a thorough intellectual training for the youth of both sexes, are respectfully invited to examine tfie present claims of this institution. The idea that the young lady must rest content with less rigorous discipline in her course of mental culture, than is awarded to her brother, is discarded as unworthy a just estimate of the female mind, which equaUy delights in rig orous Intellectual effort, and cannot but be dissatisfied with what is too frequently doled out as a “finished educa tion.” Young ladies designing to become Teachers, wfil !\ere find every facility for suitably qualifying themselves for that most interesting and responsible station. It is believed that unusual frcilitles are also afforded for acquiring the French language. Instruction in it is given by a lady conversant from early life, with Parisians, and her pupils are trained to write, speak and think, in this as readily as in their native tongue, by familiarising them with the differences in the idiom and grammatical construction of each—tliis, no one not practically acquainted with the pecu liarities of the English language equally with those of the French, can so well accomplish. In Instrumental Music, the strictest accuracy in time is secured by a process eminently successful. Any amount of reference can be given if desired, as to the rapid and en during progress in this department, of numerous former pu. pils iu this and other Mates. In Vocal Music all are instructed—not to sing a few pieces by imitation—but to perform from the printed page, at sight, music they have never heard j and drilled to main tain independent park. While this is a source of recreation to the pupil, It Is also one of discipline and refinement. And thus in every department is there that thoroughness which never fails to gratify the desires of the truly intellectual student. Episcopalians, Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Con gregationalists, and perhaps other denominations, are har moniously represented in the school, which in its religion influences, is free from anything of a sectarian tendency. The location of the Institute buildings is most delightful. Tlic commanding view from its ample grounds, of river and mountain scenery, is unsurpassed even in this romantic sec tion of the Union. Charges for five months (invariably in advance,) $5, sll and sls, according to studies pursued, with $1 contingent. Music, Piano or Organ S2O.

This preparation has now borne the test of over 14 years’ experience, since its first introduction to public favor, during which time numerous imitations have sprung into existence, founding their claims to the confidence of the com munity on the curative powers contained in Sarsa parilla Root, tho great reputation and extended use of which has been mainly attributable to the many wonderful cures effected by the use of tills preparation. While Sarsa parilla root forms an important part of its combination, it is, at the same time compounded with other vegetable remedies of great power, and it is in the peculiar combination aud scientific manner of its preparation, that its remarkable success in the cure of diseases depends. Other preparations imitate it in the style of putting up and In bearing the name of one of its ingredients, and here ends their resemblance to it.

INFLAMMATORY RHEUMATISM CURED. Barpctown, Ky., July 10,1849. Messrs. Sands—Gentlemen : It Is my duty to communi cate facts in relation to the beneficial effects of your Sarsa parilla. My wife was afflicted with inflammation and sore ness of the stomach of the worst character; her limbs were much swollen ; she had constant headache, and last spring was attacked severely with Inflammatory Rheumatism. The best medical aid we could obtain afforded only momen tary relief; and while in this situation, she heard of the many remarkable cures effected by the use of Sands' Sarsa parilla and commenced Its use, which produced instant re lief, and less than six bottles entirely removed ull the drop, sicul swelling aud every other inflammatory symptom, restor ing her to perfect health. I send this statement as an act of justice, believing it to be my duty to encourage the suf. feriug portion of the human family to use Sands’ Sarsaparilla, which I believe has no parrallel in the catalogue of medicine! With feelings of lasting gratitude, I remain your friend, SARTO P. HabOM. Read the following from Nkw Orlkaxs, Nov. 12, 1849. Messrs. Sands—Gentlemen : 1 take the liberty of sending a letter which may be of Importance to those who are suffer ing as 1 have done. 1 received great benefit from your Bar saparilla, having been cured of a malady after suffering six years. I hereby chccfolly certify to the good effect of your medicine, and 1 hope God will reward you for all the good you have done. A chronic cough had tormented me day aud night, and repeated attack* of fever Induced me to be lieve that 1 should die with consumption. One day, while suffering a violent attack of burning fever, a friend persua ded me to try your incomparable medicine, but to tell the truth, I had no confidence in it. 1 finally purchased a bottle, and by its usa, and the help of God, I was restored to bet ter health than I had enjoyed for six years. I oaunot but bless the author of this admirable medicine. With great respect, I am, gentlemen, Your obedient servant, FERMIN GROUPAZ. “ TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION.” Nkw Durham, N.

We consulted various physicians, and tried abmeroit remedies, without much benefit, until wo heard, through ltev. Thomas Davis, of the great medicinal value of Sand- Sarsaparilla. On his recommendation my wife and daughter decided on trying it, and soon experienced permanent bene-, fit. My daughter’s skin assumed a new appearance eutios ly ; from being rough, hard and scaly, it became smEoth uiul soft. My wife’s sufferings arc almost gone, aud if. luli , a short time longer, it is my firm belief, will produce a IMr fect cure. Yours, with respect, ' O.

The following is from the pen of Wm. 11, Levison, Esq., the distlnguslicd editor of the U. S. Miltary anil Naval Ar gus, under date New York, January 26, 1888. What could be more conclusive ? “ It is seldom we permit ourselves to oecupy a place In (liese columns to speak in praise of any article In the patent i medicine way ; but when we see the life of a fellow creature ! saved by the use of any medicine whatever, we consider it our light, if not our duty, to give a simple statement of facts, that others may, In tike manner, be benefltted. The esse which has induced us to pen thin article, was that of a young lady of our acquaintance, who, by frequent expo ■ sure to the night air, contracted a Cold wliich settled on the Lungs, before its ravages could he stayed. (Tills occurred two years ago this winter.) Various remedies were used hut, with very little effect or benefit. The Cough grew worse, with odious expectoration, and the sunken eye, and pale, hollow cheek, told plainly that pulmonary disease was doing its work on her delicate frame. The family physician was consulted, and although he would not ndrnit to the young lady that she really had the Consumption, yet lie would giveno encouragement as to a cure. At this crisis her mother waspersuaded to make use of a bottle of Dr. Rogers’ Compound Syrup of Liverwort nud Tar, and we are happy to state that she was perfectly cured In less than threw mouths by this medicine alone, after even hope was destroy ed. It Is useless to comment on such a ease ns this, for the simple truth will reucli where polished fiction never can. If any doubt the authenticity of this statement, let them coll at this office. U.
