In cheapness as well ns efficacy, Barry’s Tricopherous is un rivalled. Tho immense crash sates of tho arti cle, have enabled the inventor to supply it at retail, ot 25 cents perbottle r which is from fifty to one hundred per cent loss,- than tho pipco of any other preparation for tho hair now in use.- The scientific treatise on tho hair and the skin, (embracing valuablo directions for the cultuYe and preservation ot Nature’s choicest orna ment,) in which each bottle is enclosed, is alone worth the money. Tho affinity between the membranes which constitue tho skin,-and the hair which draws its sustenance from this triple envelope, is very close All diseases of the hnir originate in tile skin of the head. If the pores of the scalp are clogged, or if the blood and other fluids do not circulate ireoly through the small vessels which feed tho roots with moisture, and im part lift'to tho fibres, the result is scurf, dand- luff, shedding of their hair, grayness, dryness, nnd harshness of tho ligaments, nnd entire baldness, us tho case may be. Stimulate tho skin to healthful action with the Tricopherous, and the torpid vessels, recovering their activity, will annihilate the disease. In all uffoctions of the skin, nnd of the substrata of muscles and integuments, the process nnd the effect are tho same. It is upon the skin, the muscular fibres, nnd tho glands, that the Tricopherous has its specific action, nnd in all affections ami injuries of these organs, it is a sovereigp/emedy.

S OME months since tho undersigned pro posed to publish a series of pamphlets on titled Ilumblo Efforts. From a variety of causos, tlieir publication was postponed, and after a considerable delay, acting under the advice of some of her friends, sho has conclud ed to change her original intention, and issued monthly journal, of moderate size, quarto form, entitled the Youth’s Friend. It will ho what its nalno indicates. We aro not proposing to publish a journal of largo pretensions, eithe as to the size of its pages, or the ability of its contents. Having long boon engaged in teach ing the young of tho gentle sex, we flnttor our self that wo know something pf their moral and intellectual frauts. OdY object is mainly to aid the young mind in its scnrcli after in tellectunl and moral nutriment, ns well in the paths of sober wisdom, ns the more brilliant paterres of sparkling literature. While aid ing to find the gems of the latter, wo would from the Book of Nature and Revelation, draw lessons to chnrm and docorate it with the inspiration which alone can give it immortal bloom. Tho Youth’s Friend will be mado 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 please ; nnd so far as our ability and exertions can make it useful 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, wo trust that they will contain much worthy of the consideration of those.more advanced in life. While we frankly admit that we should be gratified with a suitable reward fur our labors, 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 tlw 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 may be pleased with the “Youth's Friend." It willbr issued monthly, in quarto form of eight pages, at $1 per annum, in advance. As the 1st number will bo forthcoming about the first of February, we would be greatly obliged to nil those who may wish to receive it, to send in their names as early as possible. W. C. TYSON.
