Bl>TA.\fltO MEDICAL SCHOOL,
COIAJ^BUS, OHIO.
rpO the many inquiries respecting our School, we womu
X make the following reply:
On the 1st of April, we commenced the systematic and
constant instruction of a (.'lass of young gentlemen, in the
true 'Theory nnd Practice of Medicine. The principles ol
the science are dearly explained and illustrated, ill so great
a variety of ways as to fix ilmm permanently in the mind.
Our practice affords ample m*an« of exhibiting to *tu
dents the symptoms of disease, the modus operand! of medi
cines, and the various and most convenient and proper
ways and means of rendering the remedial agents atul the
curative process effectual.
The science of Botany ia familiarly nnd practically taught
itt such a manner as not only to acquaint the student with
the Botanic Mntrri* Mcdica; but to enable him to examine
the whole vegetable kingdom vvuh pleasure a-.d profit. It
is illustrated, not morel* by book* and plates, but by ana
tomical examinations of tho natural subjects, nnd by oral
instructions ia the field, hs well a* in the lecture room.—
Each student is taught to label and preserve plants for his
future benefit. „ .
Instructions are givmi and lectures delivered on Natural
Philosophy and Chemistry. Much attention is devoted lo
Midwifery, and tho forms of Disease peculiar to Women
and Children, . ,,
Anatomy, Physiology and Surgery receive all desirable
attention, and the old theories ami practices meet their just
due, ina thorough examination, and comparison with the
Botanic. .
The Botanic Text Bo ks are Dr. Thomson * Narrative
and New Guide to Health, Dt Dr. Robinson* lectures,
the Thomsonian Recorder from the beginning, the Discus
sion* between the .Mineral and Botanic Faculties; A.L.*
Manuscript Lectures on the Science of Medicine, .mi Mid*
wilery and the Diseases peculiar to YVonrn nnd Children;
Eaton’s Manual of Botany, Rafniesquc’s Medical Bota
ny, &c.
Comstock’* Natural Philosophy and Chemistry.
The bc*t 'Text Books on Anatomy, Surgery, Physiology,
Pathology, Therapeutics, and every other branch of “Medi
cal Science,” falsely no called, are contained in our library,
to which the student may have reference; hot he must pur
chase for his own use, nt least one standard work on each
of the subject* to which he devote# particular attention.
TERMS.
We have a select and valuable Library, arid a room in
which Lecture* and instructions are given. For tlic regu
lar tuition and the use of theke, one dollar per week is
charged. Students are boardid ai the School and their
washing is done, for three dollars per week. These may
he had in other places, or student* may hoard lliemmdves,
at a cheaper rate. , . ,
Our hill* ate payable quarterly in advaaee, with cash or
S< *From^i« eighteen month* are desirable to acquire a
tborough knowledge of the Botanic Practice. A minute
acquaintance with Anatomy, Surgery, and other branches
of the old theories and practice*, demand ^

HE CAME TOO LATE.
RT MISS ELIZABKTII BOGARE.
He enme ton late! Neglect had tried
Her constancy tno long;
Her love had yielded to her pride.
And Ihe deep sense of wrong.
She scorned the offering of a heart
Which lingered on its way.
Till it could no light impart,
, Nor spread one cheering ray.
lie rame tor, late!—At oner he felt
• hat all his power war o'er!
Indifference in her calm smile dwelt.
She thought of him no more.
Anger and grief had passed awar.
Her heart and thoughts were free:
She met him, and her words were gay,
No spell liad memory.
He came too late!—The subtle chords
Of love were all unbound.
Not hy offence of spoken wort!*,
But hy tho slight, that wound;
She knew that life h Id imthing now
That could the past repay,
Yet she disdained hi. tardy vow.
And coldly turned away.

Of hope had long since flow n;
Noeharmt dwelt in his chosen themes.
Nor in his w hispered lone.
Anti when, withjwora and smile, he triad
Affection .till to prove.
She nerved lur heart with womnn's pride,
And spurned Ilia fickle love.
MISCELLANEOtS.
EXTRACT FROM MEMORIALS OF MRS. IIEMAN3.
BT II. R. CHARLET.
Tliojc who are born poets, \vi!i (inti food for
the desire within liiom, under the most ungenial
circumstances, and in the harshest trials; just as
the real lover of flowers will contrive not lo be
without a leaf or a bttd, wherew ith to cheer his
eye, though his home be the most airless court
in the heart of a vast city. To some, persecu
tion and difficulty arc salutary, and rltetr ener
gy must be aroused by resis'ance. Mrs. Ho-
mans was not one of these. I have often
thought that there could be few lots more favor-
able to the dcvelopement of the imagination and
sentiment, more calculated to excite a thirst for
knowledge, than hers; her own peculiar dispo
sition being taken into the account.—Enough,
was granted to encourage—enough withheld to
quicken aspiration. The unkindness of fortune
left her something to wish for; and to one organ
ized like herself, must have given an ideal
beanly and importance to a thousand objects
which, when received as matters of course, lose
their charm and authority. And while, on the
one hand, the refinements of life were enhanced
in value by restricted circumstances, her mind
on the other—unvitiated by any experience of
the aitificial world—was drinking in high
thoughts and glorious images from the books
(what treasures are these to the young enthusi
ast!) which found ihe way to her retreat, and
which site Itfl-ed and adopted of her own accord
and not in pursuance of any routine. Site was
never at - chool; had she been sent to one, she
might probably have run away; and I am told
that the only things she was ever regularly
taught were French, English Grammar, nnd
the rudiments of Latin, communicated to her by
a gentleman, who used to deplore “that she was
not a man to have borne away the highest hon
ors at college!” Occasionally too, she may
have been benefited by a passing glimpse of
some gifted person. One hour of such an angel
visit does more lo unfold and assist the mind at
that lime of life, when the spirit is almost tumul
tuously awake, than days, months of intercourse
at a period of soberer ago and experience,
words are treasured, looks remembered, chance
thoughts take root in the heart, teeming with the
principle of life; while the very consciousness
of being able to appreciate and value the socie.
tjr oftl»o*o, who givo forth ilicir treasures to the
young with a freedom nnd a warmth, which is
checked by suspicion in their intercourse with
the more sophisticated, has, in itself, a worid r-
working spell, under the influence whereof the
enthusiast listens, remembers, combines, creates,
and is hurried to that most delicious moment of
life, when no difficulties darken the future, and
in the fulness of joy and inexperience, he feels
wttiiin himself 1 "K/auche, io son' pocla!”
But to follow the digression yet a step further;
while such are the peculiar advantages and
pleasures which attend the youth of genius de
veloping ilselfin seclusion, that condition is sub
ject to other influences to winch it may be well,
nay, it is a duty lor one to advert, who would
trace out the poetic character with reference to
the high destinies of ihe art. The same posi
tion which is most favorable to the imagination
may be unfriendly to the general sympathies.
Tite young recluse, feeling himself apart and a-
lone in the light of his mind, the idol of a small
and devoted circle, is too apt to throw himself
exclusively upon peculiar veins of thought; too
fastidiously to adhere to such objecls alone as
are dearest to the poet’s highest attribute.—He
looks at the world from a distance, and can on
ly fix upon those who tower above the common
crowd: if he tolerates its murmur, it is for the
sake of some fragmentary tones of music which
mingle therewith.—The rest of its inhabitants
are to him “the common herd,” the other
sounds, a Babel of folly and discord, from which
ho hives to bide himself in the pleasure gardens
of his own fancy. And he turns away with a
generous but short sighted scorn from the small
pleasures and small cares of common life; for
getting that inasmuch as ihe use ot monastic
religion and monas'.ic learning has passed away
with the feudal days of nobles and villains, it is
not only wise for his own spirit but incumbent
ujion him as the steward of a noble heritage, to
do something besides toiling in this retired fairy
land of his own; that lie' is bound to labor in the
wider though less congenial fields of human
life and affeciion, which arc peopled with the
homely as well as the elegant, the weak as well
as the strong.
A man cannot far advance on his pilgrimage
without his views becoming widened by that
ac uni collision wiih lilts which a woman can
rarely experience: yet how many a one is there,
who on tho plea of the lonelinesss of genius, has
never known the strength and joy of his own
spirit and has passed away like ihe vapor of the
morning! But for one of the gentler sex,
shielded as sh* is by her position in society—en
grossed by afli-ctions which color every object
coming within their circle; there is always too
great a danger of being too exclusive in her do-
votions; without (o these conditions being add
ed, that of retirement from the world to confirm
her in hero-worship solely offered to the great
and gifted, te encourage her undue shrinking
from all that jars upon her highly wrought and
sensitive feelings.
" It would be dilficult, were the whole range of
our imaginative literature searched through, to
discover a more peifect illustration of the above
remarks than is to be found in the works of
Mrs. Ilemans, and in the * regress of m ud they
register. That she did only a partial justice lo
her powers, must be admitted by all who ever
held friendly intercourse with her; they will
fed, too, that she was summoned away at the
moment when she might, and must have risen
higher than she had ever done before. Her
first works arc purely classical or purely ro.
mantie; their poem* may be compared to an
tique groups of sculpture, or the mailed orna-
mental figures of the middle ages set in mo
tion.
Asslie advanced on h"r way, sadly learning
the whilo the grave leasons which time
and trial teach, her songs breathed more
reality and loss of romance; the too exclusive
and feverish reverence for high intellectual or
imaginative endowmenj, yielded to a calmness,
and a checrfuldess, and a willingness more and
more, not merely to speculate upon, but to par-
take of the “beauty in our daily paths.”—Had
she lived lo bring these ye! more fully to bear
upon the stores of knowledge site had heaped
up, she would have produced a work as far su
perior to any she has left us, as her own latest
lyrics and scenes exceed the prize poems of
her gitlhood:—the first frigid exercises of a ti
mid and tramelled writer.
ON DOMESTIC EMPLOYMENTS.
BT MRS. SIGOURNEY.
We have been amongst the admirers of
Mrs. Sigourney as a poetess, and her pro
ductions as a prose writer have heighten
ed our respect. The subjoined extract
is taken from an essay of this really phi
losophical writer. The essay is address
ed to her own sex, but the general conclu
sions apply, if possible, with more force
to the opposite sex, upon whom the ster
ner duties of life depend. In softening
and sweetening the duties of private life,
are the obligations less binding on men
than on women? The fact is, that it de
mands exactly die same amiable qualities
in every member of a family, to make
the domestic hearth the heaven of happi
ness.—Nat. Intel.
I have even thought it desirable that
young ladies should make themselves the
mistresses of some attainment, either in
art or science, by which they might se
cure .a subsistence, should thev be reduc
ed to poverty. Sudden and entire re
verses <ire not uncommon in the history of
aifluence. To sustain them without the
means of lessening the evils of depen
dence, when health and intellect are at
our command, is adding helplessness to
our own affliction, and increasing the
burthen of Olliers. When the illustrious
Henry Laurens, by the fortune of our
war of Revolution, was hold a prisoner in
the Tower of London, he wrote to his two
daughters, who had been nurtured in all
the -tenderness and luxury of Carolina
wealth: “It is my duty to warn you to
prepare for the trial of earning your daily'
bread by your daily labor. Fear not
servitude; encounter it, if it shall be ne
cessary, with the spirit becoming a wo
man of an honest and pious heart; one
who has been neither fashionably nor af
fectedly religious.”
The accomplished Madame de Gonlis
pronounced herself to be in possession of
thirty trades or varieties of occupation,
by which she could, if necessary, obtain
a livelihood. It was a wise law of some
of the ancient Governments which com
pelled every parent to give his son some
trade or profession, adequate to his sup
port. Such is now the variety of depart
ments open to females as instructors in
schools and seminaries of their own %ex,
that they mny follow the impulse of their
genius in the selection of a study or ac
complishment, and, while they pursue it
as a pleasure, can still bo prepared to
practice it as a profession. Among the
plPasani employments which seem pecu
liarly congenial to the feelings of our sex,
the culture of Powers stands censpieumjs-
The genial superintendence of a garden
lias been repeatedly found favorable to
health, by leading to frequent exercise in
the open air, and that communing with
Nature which is equally refreshing to tho
heart. It was laboring with her own hands
in her garden, that the mother of Wash
ington was found by the youthful Marquis
de Lafayette, when he sought her bless
ing, as he was about commit himself to
the ocean, and return to his native clime.
Milton, who you recollect, was a great
advocate that women should “study
household good,” has few more eloquent
descriptions than those which represent
our first mother at her floral toil amid the
sinless shades of Paradise.
The tending" of flowers has ever ap
peared to me to be a fitting care for the
young and beautiful. They then dwell
as it were among their own emblems,
and many a voice of wisdom breathes on
their ear from those brief blossoms to
which they apportion the dew and the
sun-beam. While they eradicate the
weeds that deform, or the excrescences
that endanger them, is there not a per
petual motion uttered of the work to be
done in their own heart? From the admi
ration of these ever-varying charms, how
naturally is the tender spirit led upward
in devotion to Hint “whosehand perfumes
them, and whose pencil paints.” Con
nected with the nature of flowers is the
delightful study' of botany, which imparts
new attractions to the summer sylvan
walks, and prompts both lo salubrious ex
ercise and scientific research. A know
ledge of the physiology of plants is not
only interesting in itself, but of practical
import. The brilliant coloring matter
which they sometimes yield, and the beau
tiful influences which they possess, im
part value to many an unsightly shrub or
secluded plant, which might otherwise
have been suffered to blossom and die
without a thought.
It is cheering amid our solitary rambles
to view the subjects that surround us as
friends, to call to recollection their dis
tinctive lineaments of character, to array
them with something of intelligence or
she will be expected to do, and ought
therefore to learn, and to learn early, if
she would acquit herself creditably.—
Though to combine the excellencies of a
housekeeper, with much eminence in li
terature or science, requires an energy
seldom possessed, still there is no need
that domestic duties should preclude
mental improvement or extinguish intel
lectual enjoyment. They may be united
by diligence anti perseverance, and the
foundation of those qualities should be
laid note in youth.
RUSSIAN MODli OF MAKING BUTTER.
Sir—Observing in a monthly scientific jour-
ylility, and to enjoy an intjmate compan
ionship with Nature. The female abori
gines of our country were distinguished
by an extensive acquaintance with the
medicinal properties of plants anil roots,
which enabled them, both in peace and
war, to be the healers of their tribes. I
would not counsel you to invade the pro
vince of the physician; in our slate of so
ciety it would be preposterous and ar.o-
gant. But sometimes to alleviate the
slight indisposition of those you love by a
simple infusion of the herbs you have
reared or gathered, is a legitimate branch
of that nursing kindness which seems in
terwoven with Woman’s nature.
And now, to sum up the whole matter,
though in the morning of youth a charm
is thrown over the landscape, every ine
quality smoothed, jet still life is not “one
long summer’s day of indolence and
mirth.” The sphere of woman is emin
ently practical- There is much which
nal, an article on the subject of making butter
in the winter, i beg leave to furnish the parti
culars on that subject, as practised in Russia
since the year 1810, and which may, perhaps,
be of some service to-those who may be in
duced to make the experiment either in sum
mer or winter. Being in that country in the
year 1834,1 was informed by a Russian noble
man, IhntSbe proprietor of an extensive oslate
(also n noble an of high rank) had discovered
a new mode of making butter, and had received
letters patent from tho Omperfti ns a reward fur
the discovery, and which he stated at the time
ns being in full and successful operation. The
process consisted in boiling (or ratfier a species
of boiling, called simmering) the milk for the
space of fifteen minutes in its sweet state; ob
serving at the same time not to use a sufficient
heat to burn the nulk. It is then churned in the
usual way. He also stated that no difficulty
ever occurred in procuring butter immediately,
and of a quality superior larto that made from
milk wh'ch had un'Jetgone vinous fermentation;
and that in addition to its superior flavor, it
would preserve its qualities much longer than
that made in the ordinary way; that the addi
tional advantages were, that the milk, being
left sweet, is almost possessed of the same va
lue for ordinary purposes, and bv some consi
dered more healthy, as they supposed the boil
ing or scalding to destroy the animalcules, ot
whatever it might have contained.
If the above process should, upon exper:-
ment prove of sufficient importance as to bring
it into general use, particularly in the winter,
it would perhaps be to the advantage of those
who may practise it, to have their milk scalded
in vessels calculated to stand in the kcitle or
boiler, by which mode the danger of burning
the milk would be avoided, for it is ascertained
that milk only burns on the edges of its stir.
fii£e, or where it comes it! contact with the sides
of the vessel in which it is heated, which can
never happen in double kettles, or where one is
placed within the other.—Botanic Sentinel.
From the. Philadelphia Age.
Ole Bull the Norwegian Violinist.—To A-
mericans the above name is one of little notori
ety—but in England at the present time, it is n
theme of engrossing interest. Ole Bull, the ri
val of Paganini, and in some respects his superi
or, ia'a Norwegian by birth. He was born in
the lowest obscurity nnd poverty, and a mere
chance brought him into public notice. The
director of the Opera in Bologna happened
once to be in great embarassment, through the
failure of an engagement made byDe Be riot and
Matibran. Ho was in the utmost distress, and
knew not what to resort to.— Madame Rossini,
to whom he was relating his troubles, informed
him that by rare chance, in passing near the
windows ofa hotel, she hod heard the most en
chanting, marvellous and singular strains from
violin. They proceeded from the violin of
Ole Bull. This was a God send; nnrl the
manager found his man. The artist was in-
duC°d to appear before tite city of Bologna, and
his success triumphant. It is related that
during his performance ihe audience seemed to
forget themselves, ana hung in,breathless at
tention upon bis strains; and ev<;n remained in
silent wonder, as if si ruck dumb for several min
utes after he bad ceased playing.
From Bologna he passed to Lucca, Flor
ence, Milan, Rome and Venice, and the im
pression he made was yet greater and more de
cisivo. The enthusiasm of the audience was
roused to ihe highest pitch, and in one instance
he was called out nine times to receive tlic
thanks and plaudits of the audience. The poo-
pie in the Italian cities, with their natural ad
miration of musical talent, surrounded him in
tho public streets, and followed his footsteps
with loud and frequent cheers. In London his
success was no less complete. Greater enthu
siasm was never elicited from an audience than
during his performances. His great triumph
wtts iu the Polueea Gueriera, which offered a
fair exhibition of his distinguishing traits. He
has acquired an immense sum of money, and
absolutely drains the larger Theatres when he
performs at the Opera House, so great is the
desire lo hear him.
He is a simple, modest, kind hearted man,
and in no way resembles Pngnnani. He early
discovered a talent for music, and sought the
first opportunity to purchase himself a violin.
He was accustomed to play for the villagers
while they danced, and troops of girls came in
from miles round to hear Ole Bull play, and.to
dance to his music.—Hts fame was lor a long
time confined to ihe narrow circle of hisjtsso-
ciates. By some means or other he got into
Italy, where he sustained himself'by menial
services, and occasionally by his violin. He
is now amen of fortune, and it is said bears
with moderation and meekness his unparalleled
success.
EXTRACT FROM WIRT.
Excrsrivo wealth is neither glory nor happi-

self; who draws his hand within its phell and
never puls it out but for the purpose of lucre and
ostentation, who looks upon his fellow crea

be bis vassals, and lie was made their lord; as
if they were for no other purpose than to pam
per his avarice, or to contribute to his aggran
dizement. Such a inttn may be rich, but trust

the world; was it their wealth that made them

Socrates, of Plato, Epaminodas, of Fabticus, of
Cincinattus, and a countless host upon the rolls
of fame? Their wealth was in their mind and

The Texian officers state that Sant*
Anna, some time since, wrote to Gen.
Jackson, requesting his mediation in such
a treaty, and that the latter, in a written
reply, stated that he could not mediate
between parties, one of which was a
prisoner of war. Therefore the 'JVxiaf!
authorities have authorized his release
and return to Mexico for the purpose of
securing a treaty recognizing their inde
pendence and obviating the difficulty
stated hy Gen. Jackson.
Now if you will excuse this illegible
communication on the ground that I write
on board asleambont in motion, I will at
tempt to describe to you as Well as [ can,
the appearance of those two individuals,
viz: Santa Anna and his Secretary.
Imagine to yourself a man of full or
dinary stature, forty years of age, weigh
ing about one hundred and sixty pounds,
of graceful form, and step, rouad shoul
dered, with black glossy hair, tolerably
full white face and round forehead, it
short squarish inferior looking nose, and a
round dark eye somewhat sunken. Sup
pose him dressed in a genteel tr.til-bodied
black coat and blue pantaloons, W'alking
about or setting coose-legged in a pair of
slip-shod pumps, tolerably pleasant of
countenance and speech, (which is exclu
sively Spanish,) very polite, and using
stately compliments. .Such is the ap
pearance of Gen. Antonio Lope^ ml
Santa Anna. He has, in my view, no
thing military in his look, and nothing in
dicating great talents. He would, readi
ly betaken, I think, lor an active intelli
gent merchant or man ol general busi
ness. He is very reserved, plain and.
modest in his conversation and Hi tinners’,-
as far as I have observed him. I can see
nothing villainous or deceitful in lbs coun
tenance. Under his dark eye one can im
agine (but not clearly perceive) a lurking
demon. I think that with the exception!
of his inferior stubby nose, he. may be
considered as elegant in figure ami re
spectable in features. He confined him
self to his State Room under the plea o€
indisposition, although it is well uxuh-r-
stood that his true reasons are, fear of the
popular gaze, and mi attack from some
incensed person.
Col. Almonte whom I will next intro
duce to you is and has been almost eon--
stantly about the cabin, cracking his jokes
as well as conversing freely and laughing
heartily with all who are intimate with
him or choose to seek his conversation*
He is said to be thirty-three years of age'
—although a few would take him to lie
not over twenty-five. He is of a copper
or Indian complexion, with a thick head
of straight black glossy hair. Ahtiough
he speaks the English language well yet a
"lance at him convinces you that he is a
Mexican or Spaniard. He is a short,
thickset, square built young man, with
large head and broad open mouth and
features—very muscular, active and live
ly. His countenance as well as eon ver
sa t ion is very intelligent. There is a iTrv
ble sincerity and frankness depicted in
his countenance and manner. His dress'
is a frock coat and pantaloons of black
cloth, with a cloth cap and genteel calf
skin boots. He seems to be perfectly at
home and quite happy. He is related to
he very brave and of remarkable forti
tude—as instances—it is related dial
when Santa Anna and the other Mexican
nfficeis at San Jacinto made their escape
from tlie battle field—he continued rally
ing to the last thirty or forty of his men?
and when hejsaw that hope had fled, he
folded his arm's and received the deliber
ate but erring fire of his enemies till Gen.
Hogston rescued him. Again report
says that when shackles were applied Uj
him and Santa Anna, soon after their cap
ture, that the latter complained and asked
them to shoot him, while the former smil-
ingly said “that philosophers were sometime»
obliged to submit to such things. 1
ANTI-CATTLK UHOKER.
Our worthy friend, Pain Wingate,'has left in!
our office an instrument with the above title'.-
It is what is v ilgarly called a tarred rope, and
we shonld call it a very useful nnd efficient ftt-
striinv-nt. There should he one in every neigh
borhood, for it is a fact that cattle are (table to
got choked, the world over, nnd being choked
ought to be relieved by ihe aid of man. But
why is a tarred rope better for this than a cord,
wood slick? For various reasons. It is suffi
ciently s’ifT (o effect the business, nine times rd*
len, and at the same time' has that kind of etii*:
t iciiy which will accommodate i'self to a position
or passage not entirely straight.
In order to' make orte, tak«* « piece of tarred
rope, say an inch in diameter, nnd six feet long.-
Untwist it three or four inches at the end, nnd
have a tuft of it loose in order to make a kind 1
of ball or swablikkeend, then wind around it»f
piece of canvass or cloth, in order to make the'
surface smooth,(and cover this roll or w ind willy
some spun yard tightly and smoothly.- fti coin
weather this rope should be warmed a little be
fore using, and in warm weather it is well lo
wet it. When about to'use it, the tuft nt thne
end should be tarred back, and' this will make’
a soft but sufficiently anWhtflh to fill the gullet*
when it is pushed down-—Maine Farmer*
