ON the first day of June next, the Buildings of
this Establishment will be prepared for the
reception of Visitors. The Houses are large and
numerous,-sufficiently so, to accommodate an as
semblage of two or three hundred persons com
fortr liy.
She subscriber is flattered with the expectation,
that the conveniences and improvements which
have been added, to ihis Establishment, in all
those matters which essentially concern the
health, comfort, and amusement of its visitors,
will render it the ensuing season, more attractive
tiian ever. The private apartments will afford
ample retirement to invalids, families, and others
who prefer it. They are so arranged, as to com
bine every convenience and accommodation, suit
ed to the largest or smallest assembly, male and
female. Arrangements are also made, with the
particular design of accomodating large families,
by affording them large, spacious cabins, near to
or remote as they may select from the centre build
ing, with double and single rooms, where they
can be atall times, perfectly secure in the enjoy
ment of quiet retirement.
Tiie Subscriber pledges herself to devote her
chief exertions to the accommodation of private
families, & will spare no means to Tender visitors
happy and agreeable, by providing every thing
that may contribute to their health, by carefully
guarding against annoyances of every description.
Tiie Public Halls are abundantly spacious to
receive all who may desire company.
No Public Balls will be given at Shocco during
the season, but those who de’ight in Music and
Dancing can partake of them without its disturb
ing cr annoying, in the slightest degree, tiie rest
of the Boarders.
Few Watering Places present more rational
objects of attraction than Shocco. Located in the
most healthy, rich and populous part of ths coun
try, in the midst of a polished society, it affords
in its Springs and climate many advantages, and
gives it ascendancy over all the Mineral Water
ing places to the South. It is believed that the
water never failed in its senative effects upon
persons afflicted with Dyspepsia, Billioug dis
eases and general debility, where they have per
servered in its list;.
An arrangement will be made to have Divina
Worship performed at the Spring on the Sabbath
day, when such visitors as may choose, can attend
preaching without inconvenience.
My terms for Board, &c. will be the same as
_ast year, viz. $1 jier day for each grown person ;

Medical College.
WORTH i.vrorv.
BY, and with the consent of the Reformed
Medical Society, of the United States, the
new Reformed Medical Institution has been loca
ted in Worthington, an interesting and flourishing
town on the Whetstone River, 8 miles north of
Columbus, on the Northern Turnpike. This site
has been chosen because it presents the greatest
advantages to facilitate the researches of the Bo
tanical student; the country around it abounding
with every variety of medical plants ; and the sit
uation being the most healthy and delightful in
the Western country —and because the occupancy
of the large College Edifice, together with ground
of every variety of soil for an extensive botanical
garden, has been presented to ns by the board of
trustees of Worthington College.
There will be attached to the institution, a Dis
pensary for analyzing and preparing Vegetable
Medicines; and an Infirmary, where persons from
the neighborhood, or a distance laboring under
fevers, consumptions, dispepsa, liver complaints,
gravel, ulcers, fistulas, cancers 1 &c. &c. wiil be
successfully treated, without bleeding, mercury or
the knife, and from which the student will acquire
a correct knowledge of the nature, operation and
superior efficacy of vegetable agents in removing
disease.
The necessity for an Institution of this kind in
the west, to be under the direction of the compe
tent Professors is strikingly evident. It is an insti
tution that is designed to concentrate,and dissem
inate ail the knowledge of Drs. of Medicine and
empyrics, sages; & savages that will demonstrate
to the student and the sick that vegatables alone
afford the only rational, safe and effectual means
of removing diseases without impairing the con
stitution, or endangering life or limb. The pre
sent system of practice which treats diseases of
every form with metalic minerals, the lancet or
knife is dangerous as the lamentable facts
which every day presents too fully illustrate. Nor
is this truth more clearly exhibited than the fact
that vegetable substances alone, are void of dan
ger, and powerfully efficient when administered;
a reference to the success of our New York In
firmary and the success of ignorant botanical
physicians, proves this fact.
The College and Infirmary will be opened the
first week in December, where students from al
parts may enter and complete their Medical Ed
ucations, and- where persons laboring tinderevery
species of disease shall receive prompt and faith
ful attention.
The course of study to be pursued and which
will be taught aaccording to the OLD end RE
FORMED systems y Lectures, Recitations,
Examinations tnd suitable text books is. Ist A
natinny and Phisiology. 2d. Old and Reformed
Surgery 3d, Theory and Practice of Medicine.
4th. The old and improved system of Midwifery,
with the diseases of women and children. sth.
Materia and Medica with practical and general
Botany. 6th. Medical and Botanical Chemistry
and Parmacy* 7th. Stated Lectures on collater
al Science—Moral and Mental Philosophy-
Phrenology—Medical Jurisprudence*— Compara
tive Anatomy—Medical History, &c.
By attending this Institution, the student wiil
acoure a correct knowledge of present practice
of Physicians—a knowledge of the use and abuse
of minerals, the Lancet. Obsterical Forceps and
the knife, and a knowledge of the new and im
proved system that supercedes their use, with
tenfold more safety aud success. There will be
no specified time to complete a course of study;
whenever the student is qualified he may gradu
ate and receive a Diploma—some will pass in one
year, others will require more.
Requisitions for Admission,
1. A certificate of good moral charcter.
2. Good English education.
Terms . —The price of qualifying a person to
practice, including a Diploma, and access to all
the advantages of the institution will be $l5O ir,
advance, or $75 in advance, and SIOO at the close
of his students. Every advantage given, and some
allowance made to those in indigent circum
stances, Board will be had at $1 per week aid
books at the Western city prices.
Every student on eutering Worthington Col
lege will become an honorary member of the re’
fomed Medical Society of the States from
whom he w.ll recetveadn, and annual Re
port of all the doings and discoveries of its differ

A CARD.
In commencing the publication of anew v !
ume of the Lady’s Book, the proprietors s lJ|
avail themselves of the opportunity thus o£s
of again inviting attention to their work. te< *
Notwithstanding the necessary unavoidable,
difficulties against which they have had to r
tend, they find themselves at the close of t> ""
first yearenjoying, through an unexamnled e ?
tent of patronage, all the advantages which heloni
to old established and long prosperous public'
lions. For this liberality on the part of the nj
lie they are truly grateful, and it shall be thej.
pride and pleasure to pursue such means as V Y
deserve its continuance. The same zeal and and
votion which they have hitherto felt and exhih,"
ted in regard to their work, will still he found't
influence them, and with the additional facilitio!
now within their reach they hope to render the
coming volume even more attractive than tH
which has just been closed. They have in cos.
temptation many improvements, a particularYv
umeration of v hich they deem unimportant, not
doubting that the promptness and fidelity Yi].
which they have fulfilled all formerengagwmerY
have created public confidence in their ability t ’
perform whatever they may feel disposed t.oV
dertake. They prefer that their work ahouliY
tested by its own merits, rather than rely for
port on any specious promises which thev mil",
put forth.
Since tiie commencement of The Lady’s Zm
the publishers have avoided all proper matter 1!
offence to the proprietors of contemporary period,
icals. 111 the occasional notices which they have
felt themselves called upon to make in-relation
the progress and prospects of their own wort
they have made no allusion which could be con
Strued disparagingly toothers. ”'hey have nJ
sued this course from motives of justice and
cy—as well because it corresponded with their
own feelings, as because they believed it would
contribute to their interests. They believed th't
with the American public no good end could b
achieved by uncaued-for interference with the
rights of others, and they have yet to leant that j n
this opinion they have been mistaken, Thenat,
ronage which they have hitherto received assures
them of the favourable regard in which their work
is held; and they know that they can only look
for future encouragement in a proper employ,
ment of the ample means within their power to
give increased satisfaction.
The publishers of The Lady’s Book take
pleasure in acknowledging their obligations to the
conductors of the public press in all sections 0 f
the country. The general commendation which
these gentlemen have bestowed upon their work
is doubly gratifying to them because they have
reason to believe it is deserved, and they know
that it has been productive of great advantage.—
It is a source of much excusable prido to theYtib.
lishprs that the comments which the Book has
elicted have uniformily been favourable. In no
instance have they had the mortification of find
ing their efforts, to please, unsuccessful, or im
properly appreciated. The publishers cannot be-
Sieve that the remarks, contained in a recent ad
vertisement of a contemporary journal, to which
their attention has been specially called, are
meant to allude to the Lady’s Book. The insin
uations there expressed concerning “cast-off plat#
mere reprint and 'mutilated music," can "have no
reference to a publication whose costly embei
lishments and general merits have been ly „„- ri y
months a theme of general admiration and eulo
gy. They cannot think the publishers of lie
journal spoken of so deficient in resoect to a pel),
lie upon whom they depend for support, as to
charge that public with a gross want of pet
ception, and an inability to discriminate in mat
ters of literary judgement. Tiie publishers of
The Lady’s Book know that the minds of son?
men are so unhapily framed that they cannot e>
dure successful competition in those pursuits ia
v hich they may happen to he engaged; and they
further knew that those who are envious of stipe
rior desert are frequently prompted to the indii,
genee of a malicious spirit; but they will not wi
lingly believe that the conductors of the jornn:!
to which they have had allusion ought to be i<fc
titled with either of these classes. On the coi
trary, they are satisfied that the ambiguous cei
sures thus spread before the public are intemlel
to be applied to some publication whose want it
merit rendered it obnoxious to such condemn!
tion.
The Publishers of The Lady’s Book have oi
served that several monthly periodicals have nil
only imitated the general arrangement of thee
work, but have also attempted to follow theirex
ample in illustrating the Fashions. This tacit
acknowledgement of the superiority of their plan
is certainly gratifying, and they recognize it with
pleasure; but at the same time they cannot for
bear saying that as they were the first to intro
duce successfully this particular species of embei
lishment, so they can now present it in a forme
greater perfection than it can readily be accoo
plished by others. They do not make this reman
invidiously, but as an act of simple justice ti
themselves, and the artists employed under theii
directions.
In concluding this card the publishers renew
their assurances of steadily persisting in their en
deavours to improve the character o The Ladv’s
Book. In its present state they have no fear oi
a comparison with any similar publication, and
they flatter themselves that the time is not distant
w hen its superiority will be generally acknowl
edged. They have no wish to boast of cones
pondents in Russia or “Constantinople,” satisfied
that whatever they may require in this way thy
can rvvocure much nearer home. They are t*o
American in their feeling's to build their claims U
support upon foreign aid or foreign praise, though
both might be easily obtained without ineurrng
any serious expense. The publishers have luoru
pleasure in receiving the unbought testimonials ot
their own countrymen, than they could possibly
derive from any commendation of writers
Europe,” called upon to praise that which they
had never seen, and whose eulogies would be nw
ted out in proportion to their ; eW -ard.
