During the summer season of 1873, the Missouri Pacific Railroad will sell Kxcur sion Tickets from St. Louis to Denver and return, at very low rates of fare, and a rare opportunity is thereby offered, for lovers of nature to view the beauties of Colorado and enjoy the delightful scenery and health inspiring climate of the Parks of the Rocky Mountains. Kansas, with its broad and fertile plains, is directly on the route, and together with all the other Western States and Territo ries, is reached by the Missouri Pacific Railroad and its connections. The Texas connection of this road is now completed and passengers are offered a first class all-rail route from St, Louis to Texas, either over the Missouri, Kansas & Texas R. R- via Sedalia, or over the Atlantic & Pacifi R. R. via Vinita. For mans, time tables, information as to rates, routes &c., we refer our readers to J. F.

The United States Dispensatory.— the authorized record of our Materia Modi ca—classes this water with the most re nowned of the Alkaline or Carbonated Springs of Europe. It tar excels any other known in its self-preserving properties. It doesnot deteriorate by bottling and keep ing. While we believe it will be difficult if at all, to find a well-authenticated cure of chronic disease by any other natural miner al water away from its source, thousands of the most remarkable cures have been effected by the Katalysine Water after it had been bottled and sent from the spring. Certainly it is not claimed for any other mineral water in the Old or New World the power to dissolve the urates or so-called chall stones in the body or on the limbs and joints. This the Gettysburg Kataly sine Water has done in hundreds of instan ces. Gout, Rheumatism. Neuralgia. Dyspep sia, Gravel, Diabetes. Kidney and Urinary diseases generally have yielded to its influ ence. It has restored muscular power to the Paralytic, cured Abdominal Dropsy, and given healthy action to the torpid Liver. Chronic Diarrhoea, Piles, Constipation, Asthma, Bronchitis. Catarrh, Diseases of the Skin, General Debility and Acrv us Prostration from mental and physical ex cesses. have all disappeared under the in fluence of this great IMEDICINE OF NATURE It is a powerful antidote to the effects of excessive eating or drinking.

Before making your arrangements to fol low the advice of the “thousands who have already gone,” it would be well to consider what has been done to make the journey to your “Home in the West” as pleasant and as free from danger as human skill and foresight can accomplish. By consolidation and construction a road has been put into operation on the shortest possible line from Nashville, Tenn., to St. Louis, “the future great city of the wond. This line, the St Louis & Southeastern Railway, has, during the year, earned an enviable reputation by its smooth track, prompt time, sure connections, and the magnifi cence of its passenger equipment. Its trains are made up of new and commodious day cars, provided with the celebrated Miller coupler and platform, and the vv est inghouse air-brake. • 077 It is positively the only line running Eull man Palace Drawing-Room Sleeping Cars through without change from R/ashville to St. Louis. No other line pretends to offer such advantages, either in distance, time, or equipment. Why, then journey by cir cuitous routes ? Do not be induced to pur chase tickets to St. Louis or the West by any other line, remembering that The “St. Louis & Southeastern ,, is the shortest, cheapest, quickest, best and only line under one management from Nashville to St. Louis, and is from 60 to 200 miles shortest to St. Louis, Kansas City, Omaha, Denver, California, lexas and all western points.

I thank you for the opportunity of ex pressing my opinion of the great value of the New American and Annual Cyclopaedia. I own the work and have it with me here, and am in the habit of consulting it every day to my very great advantage. It is U. s. Jlin. to the Court of St. James. Philadelphia, Nov. 1, 18*69. I consider the NewAmericanCyclopacdia, published by D. Appleton <C’ Co., vastly superior for the American reader to any other Cyclopaedia now before the public. REV. BISHOP SIMPSON. Boston, Oct, 25, 1869. I own Appletons’s Cyclopaedia and vse it constantly, dt should be in every library, public and private— l would say in every house, within reach of every family- lhe young should use it. y CHARLES SUMNER. New York, Oct. 25, 18C9.. I use the New American Cyclopaedia even/ day, generally many times a day. / think it the best work of the kind in acistence. It is singularly well suited to families, lhe children who grow up in a house where there is a copy of it within reach, cun hard ly escape becoming well-informed persons. 1 value it very highly, and am glad of this opportunity of testifying my gratitude. JAMES PARTON. Macon, Feb, 15, 1870. If my approbation can in any way recom mend such a work, I do not hesitate to de clare that I believe it to be the best sub stitute for a library now within the reach of men of moderate means and a wellmgh indispensable addition to the shelves of every man who wishes to be able to under stand the subjects that are continually brought forward in the business and inter course of daily life.

Oct. 19, 1869. Appleton’s Cyclopaedia is unquestionably the best popular manual of general refer ence for an American. GEO. W. CURTIS. Washington, Nov. 12, 1869 Dear Sir: 1 quite agree with Mr. Cur tis that the New American Cyclopedia is ‘the best manual for reference for an American,’ The annual continuations are also of great value. S. P. CHASE. It is the very Vest Cyclopaedia for practi cal use ever published. By skillful selec tion and compression, and sedulous avoidance of mere show and verba;, e, room is found fur an immense amount of the lat est information, put forth clearly, carefully and accurately. The book embodies and adequately represents tne ability and knowledge available at this day for a work of the kind.— Letter from the Hon. Theoph ilus Parsons, LL. D.
