With this Preparation, “there is no such word as fail.” The first journal in America, medi cal men of the highest eminence, prominent citi zens <Jf nil professions, and indies who have used it for years, in their dressing rooms and nur series, adinit with one accord, that, for impart ing vigor, gloss, luxuriance and curl to the hair eradicating scurf nfld dandruff, healing wounds curing contusions, sprains, stings, &c., and re lieving diseases of the skin, the glands, and the muscles, it has no equal among the multitude of compounds advertised in the public prints, or used In private practice.

Tne immense cash sales of t,ho arti cle, have enabled the ifiventor to supply it at fetail, nt 25 cents jier bottle, which is from fifty to one hundred per cent less, than tho price ot any other preparation for the hair now in use. The scientific treniise on the hnir and tho skin, (embracing valuable directions for the culture and preservation ot Nature’s choicest orna ment,) in which each bottle is enclosed, is alone worth tho money.

THE YOUTH’S FRIEND. S OME months since the undersigned pro posed to publish a series of pamphlets en titled Humble Efforts. Front a variety of causes, their publication wus postponed, and after a considerable delay, acting under the advice of some of her friends, she has conclud ed to change her original intontion, and issued monthly journal, of moderate size, quarto form, entitled the Youth’s Friend. It will be what its name indicates. Wc aro not proposing to publish a journal of large pretensions, either as to the size of its pages, or the ability of its contents. Having long been engaged in teach ing the young of tho gentle sex, we flatter our self that we know something of their moral and intellectual wants. Our object is mainly to aid the young mind in its search after in tellectual nnd moral nutriment, as well in. the paths of sober wisdom, as tho more brilliant paterres of sparkling literature. While aid ing to find the gems of the latter, we wotUd from the Book of Nature and Revelation, draw lessons to charm and decorate it with the inspiration which alone can give it immortal bloom. The Youth’s Friend will be made up of lit erary and scientific essays and items, moral, instructive, and pleasing tales, original and se lected; beautiful poetry, &.C., as well as edi torials, usual in works of the character pro posed. Wo have the promise of contribu- tions "from several whose efforts cannot fail to please ; a id so far as our ability and exertions can make it usefu' and attractive, they will he unremittingly exerted. But we need not enlarge. It will he seen that our pages aro intended principally for the young; still, we trust that they will contain much w orthy of thoconsideraiion of those more advanced in life. While we frankly admit that we should be gratified with a suitable reward for our lubors, we cannot and must not loose sight of the great hope of doing good. With becoming modesty and deference, we submit our frail Literary Barque to the waves of public opinion, with an expression of the hope that it may meet a favor able reception. We tender our grateful acknowledgments to the many kind friends who became patrons of our “Humble Efforts,” and trust that they mav be pleased with the “Youth's Friend.” It will be issued monthly,in quarto form of eight pages, nt $1 per ammnt, in advance. As the 1st number will be forthcoming about tho first of February, we would be greatly obliged to all those who may wish to receive it, to send in their names as early ns possible. W. C. TYSON.
