THE PHILOTOKEN,
OR, FEMALE’S FRIEND.
FOR THE CURE OF PAINFUL AND DIS-!
ORDERED MENSTRUATION, A PRE
VENT! V E OF MISCARRIAGE,
AND A CERTAIN REMEDY
FOR ALLAYING SYMPA
THETIC NERVOUS
AFFECTIONS, &c.
Much of the suffering attendant upon the lives
of females is owing to obstruction and irregular
ity of their peculiar seasons, which if not relieved
renders them invalids for life.
Irregular Menstruation, while it is one cause of
tho decline of health and beauty, is the principal
cause also of barreness. As well might vegeta
tion flourish, robe itself in bloom and bear its gol
den fruit, independent of the genial influence of
sunshine and showers, as that Woman should
wear the bloom of health and fulfil her high des
tiny, while suffering from irregularity in Jicr sea
sons.
The merits of “The Philotoken” as a remedy
in “female complaints” arc of a nature that can
not with piopriety be set forth in an advertise- j
ment. A pamphlet however accompanies each :
bottle, with full particulars, and a single trial is ;
warranted to prove its efficacy. Heads of fami-1
lies, Physicians, and Planters, who have sickly
servants, will find a remedy in tho Philotoken I
worthy of their attention,
iy Purchasers to avoid imposition will ob
serve that the genuine has my signature on tho
outside wrapper. Price one dollar a bottle.

HIAWATHA I 20TH THOUSAND !
LONGFELTAIW’S NEW POEM.
JUST PUBLISHED.
The 'ting of Hiawatha!
In one volir •«, (Guio. Price sl.
Tin* heroine, xvilh her beautiful name, Minne
haha, (Laughing V» iter) is t« charming charac
ter. ami her love story is th lirious as tho odors
of the forest, and the song of wild birds. The at
mosphere of the whole poem it- redo’ent of Na
ture unworn, and the blooms ol a life unhackney
ed and free, are sprinkled with a master’s hand
along the lines of this fresh ami most lovely le
gend.—Boston Transcript.
We are brought into intimate relations with
every bird of the forest—every animal whose
haunt are frequented by the Indians, tho soind
<?r I ’psing v.aters is in cur car and the whole
scene is fragant with the odors of aromatic woods.
’Pho simple joys and sorrow of savage life arc rep
rcsentrd in a scries of exquisite pictures, and every
gleam of tenderness and pathos that can pene
trate a savage breast is produced in touching
beauty.—New York Tribune.
From the New York Express.
Taking the common conception ot fancy, as
distinguishable from imagination, wit, humor, &c.
no other work in the language, outside of Shak
speare, Spenser, and Milton, is more uniformly
and successfully sustained throughout m this one
clement.
Hiawatha, as a fitting phantany of fabulous
creation, is wrought out with an admirable com
pleteness, beauty and originality. The games
and dances, tricks and transmigrations of the In
dian Puck or DevJ, are hardly surpassed by any
thing of the kind. The whole poem will not fail
to tix permanently the beauty and attractiveness
of many local ideal associations upon some of our
most delightful Western scenery.
From Harper’s Magazine.
This is one of the most picturesque fancies of
Indian tradition, and under the plastic shaping
of the poet, is expanded into an episode of wild
and striking beauty. The subsequ' r-t life of Hi
awatha is divercsified with an abundance ol fabu
lous ad entures, which Mr. Longfellow adorns
with the brightest hues of his imagination. In
point of diction the poem is ma ked by a. elabor
ate simplicity—the Indian names arc curiously
wrought into the exquisite finish of tho verse—
and though some passages are almost prosaic in
their bareness of embellishment, the whole tex
ture of the composition shows tire dainty fastidi
ousness for which the author is remarkabble.
»»•••••
It affords a noble illustration of his fine poetic
instinct, the purity and sweetness of his imagin
ation, and his artistic nicety and versatility of
expression.
Wc think be has so far exhausted the subject
that few subsequent writers will venture to tiead
in the same path. He has brought the re ources
of versatile fancy, keen sympathies with nature,
a sweet end tender vein of sentiment, and a deli
cate quaintness of versification to the accomplish
ment of a task which labored under peculiar in
herent difficulties, and which lew poets could have
completed with such considerable success.
From the Concord Reporter.
The appearance of this poem is an event in tho
literary World of more than ordinary interest. In
this production is to be noted the same artistic
polish which characterizes the author’s former
productions—ti e same faultless metre and melo
dious rhythm. The trochaic four-feet verse, used
in this poem peculiarly w’ell adapted to the themes
sung. One would think that the ugly looking
Indian names would be hard things to make
music of, but genius can do almost anything—
there is music in the roughest and longest of th m
as the “Song of Hiawatha” attests. Some of the
legends are grotesque and improbable, yet with
such gracd are they told by the post, that one is
almost constrained to believe them* at any rate, is
luadoto see their true beauty, which is lost in any
props rendering of them.
From the Springfield Republican.
Ao a work of art wc believe it wiil be placed
first on the list of Longfellow’s cqusite poems.—
It is an Indian Edda, founded on one of their
traditions, and is throughout wonderfully faith
fully to the ideas and modes of thought and ex
pression of the aboriginal Americans Already
has it incurred small criticism for this its crown
ing excellence, by those who preposterously
t ink that Hiawatha should have been made to
teach the philo ophy and religion oftho Anglo-
Saxons. The heroine of the pt>< m. the charm
ing Minnenaha, (Laughing Water.) takes her
name from a beautiful cascade on a small tribu
tary of the Missippi, near St. Anony’s Falls.—
We give in another column the poem of Hia
watha, which whoever reads will net be satisfied
until the wnole poem is enjoyed* Wc may
say of the author, in the language of the poem
itself;
“ All the many sounds of nature
Borrowed sweetness from his singing;
All the hearts of men W’ere softened
By the pathos of his music.”
From the Providence Transcript.
In no effort have the muses more largely lav
ished their favors upon Mr. Longfellow than in
the “ bong of Hiawaths.” Tho versification,
like many of hispix-ms, is pecu iar, being proper
ly neither blank verse nor rhyme, yet trwly beau
tiful and highly musical. The poem is dibtin
guished for that simplicity and beauty of
language, that commingling of the real and the
fanciful, which so strongly characterises Indian
legends. It is founded upon the tradtion of a
superhuman personage, known as Hiawatha,
who was sent among the Indian to “clear
their rivers, forests and fishing grounds, and
teach them the arts of peace.” The episodical
legends of “The Son ofthe Evenihg Star,” and
others, are of touching beauty, and the verse in
which they are embodied may ba regarded at
the perfection of melody.
From the Deaton Courier.
Columbus taught a parcel of mutlen-head.i that an
egte might he poised on its smallar end, and thej thank,
ed him, with a mutton-headed sneer, tha: the thing was
easy enough to d»>—after they knew how to do it | A
“dung of llawotlia” is also a very easy problem to the
•malt beer poets and oyster house critics-after the
thing has been done--alter method has been pointed
out. “If we had only thought of it!" Yes—verily
But we didn’t. Longfellow did. And now, has jxiulry
—genuine poetry—been the result t This question is
etiil and open one- but side with those who answer in
the affirmative. The “Hong of Uiawatha” is a true
poem in spite of its originality 1 •
From the Boston Mercantile Journal.
As a poem, this production ceitainly displays as
much real genius as any of the previous works of the
author. It may nut rank among his most popular
poems, and is nut equal in harmui y and gracefulness to
some of his minor places and translations, but comes
fully up to the standard of Evangeline, and possesses
as much ofinstrinsic interest as that tavonte poeui.
From the New York riunday Alias.
The scholar and student will welcome it as rare addi
tion to our national literature: and the antiquary and
searcher after Indian loro will regard it as one us their
most invaluable treasures. The reading and research
necessary to have ccmpilcd the material out of which
this poem is created, must have cost Mr. Longfellow
xuauy hours of weary labor, for v hich he will bo amply
repaid by the compitteneßH of bis work, and the high
praise that must be awarded it by European as well as
American reviewers ; in lact.it must take rank at the
only poem in the languaae which faithfully embodies
Indian manners and traditions.
From the Now Bedford Mercury.
Bnt the charm of the poem, incur apprehension, lies
in the exquisite pictures which warm alike the fancy
and heart ; the sylvan landscapes touched with the
glorious hue w hich genius reproduces for the delight
ofthe less gifted eye an 1 mind; gleams of those ten
dcrest affections r9~oal the immortal nut Icm in
the untaught child r.- h■ *?r2st than in the man on

sympathies, the cai”i « --jyh sUtugling asp rations
fur tne beautiful and -.4 the natural piety which
links all human races, f; oJi ihe prlmev * to the present
time, in one bond cf brotherhood. Mr Longfellow Las
certainly done wonders with the ragmenl ary materials
that he could gather; nor has hv- been ices felicitous
than faithful in his portraiture of the Indian character
which he ha* .est in its untutored grace and primal
strength.

To record the singular in' idents that occurred

whjch awakened my interest, was a favorite em

years. Out ofthe many colored webs of life thus

ate woven. Fiction has lent but few cnibclish

strangeness. Should this work achieve the ob
ject contemplated, its readers willrecetve a more
c irrect impression of some unlaurelled laborers
for the public amusement than is general! enter
tained. Between them and the every-day world
the curtainof prejudice has fallen in impenetrable
I folds. FiOmits fatal shadow these alone who
climb to the highest pinnacle of fame emerge.—
Yet among the most lowly of this proscribed
band there are many whose lives bear witness
that Heaven plants its flowers and scatters its
pearls in unexpected places. Look for them, you
who judge rashly, before you pronounce that
they have no existence there.
Anna Cora Ritcuik.
Ravenswood, October 17, 1855.
[From the Daily Advertiser.]
This volume contains three splendid stories—
Stella The Promoter’s Daughter. The Un
known Tragedian; into which the author has
brought, in a very interesting manner, her expo
ricnces as an actress, during her successful pro
fesstonal career of nine years.
[From the New York Mirror.]
Her “Autobiography of an Actress” is a char
ming book; but this “Mimic Life” is in every
way superior. It is written with great power
beauty and pathos; and evidently sketched more
from memory than imagination. It contains
thro J stories of the most absorbing interest—
Stella. The Prompter’s Daughtc.; and The
Unknown Tragcdi n.
[From the Boston Transcript.]
The work is destined to a popularity equal if
not superior to that Autobiography; for it
is not a maudlin romancs spun from a morbid
brain, but is the re ultof the life studies and ex
periences of a true woman and an accomplished
writer, who has here deposited some of her more
sacred convictions in regard to life and its means
ing.
[From the Boston Atlas.]
Wc advise all who would enjoy perhaps the
most exquisitely beautiful production of author’s
ever-finished pen, to bu ; the volume, and he sure
to read the story of little Tina—a story destined
to rank among the most beautiful sketches of
childhood that have ever yet appeared.
[From the Philadelphia News.]
No book has recently been issued in this coun
try, destined to bo more universally read, than
‘Mimic Life.” Apart from the revelations
which it gives of theatrical life behind the curtain
—describing the struggles, dangers and heart
burnings ofthe votaries of Thespis and of Thalia
—there is an originality and freshness in the style
throughout, which, of itself, must fascinate the
reader.
[From the Boston Mail.]
Mimic Life cannot fail to become a universal
favorite; and gain admirers every whore. It pos
sesses every literary element that can command
success, and it will render the name of the au
thoress still more famous.
[From tho New York Albion.]
Asa literary effort,“Mimic Life” may be hon
estly praised. The personages are sharply cut;
the interest progresses page after page. Our
bounds forbid us particularising, but wc should
be at once ungrateful for pleasure derived, and
unjust in our criticism if wc did not mark our
one character. The hump-backed Prompter of
the second story, carrying a stout heart and
cheerful spirit through weariness and woe, de
serves to be set apart in a niche of his own.
[From tho Christian Inquirer.]
“Stella” is full of warning “The Unknown
Tragedian” hasexamples of hcart-magaanimity,
whilst “The Prompter’s Daughter” is worthy
of a place beside “Little Nell” and “Oliver
Twist.”
