I most humbly ami sincerely thank you foi

my Ancestors were all American Citizens, am!
that I entertain for all that concerns Auierier

P DEIFICATION OF THE BLOOD
AMI
LIVER AND BILIOUS COMPLAINTS
The Citizens of the Union suffer much from dis
orders of the Liver and Stomach, scaroely an)
are free from the influences of these destructive
maladies, hence life wears fust. The fair sex
perhaps the most handsome in the world, up t<
u certain period when, diatresaing to suy, man)
loose their teeth and good looks, while yet in tin
haydnv of life?such sad evils may be effectually
remedied by continually keeping the blood purt
and the Liver and Stomach in a healthy action
when life will flow sinootly, and resemble plant
in a congenial clime, whore an eternal spring ap
pours to reign. As it regards the preservatio:
of the human frame and the duration of life
much may be effected, and I say fearlessly, tha
health and life may be prolonged for many yean
beyond the ordinary limits, if Ilolloway s Pillj
are taken to purify the blood according to tin
rules laid down for health contained in the di
rections which accompany euch box.

To Provkssor Hou.oway, 88, Cottier of Am

Sir:?It is with the most heartfelt pleasure 1
have to inform you that I have been restored U
health and strength by taking your Pills, to
the last ten year* I suffered from a dcrangcinen
of the Liver and Stomach, and was reduced i<
such an extremity that 1 gave up my Ship, neve
expecting to go to sea any more, as I had trice
every remedy that was recommended to ine, bu
all to no purpose; and had given myself up U
despair, when 1 was at last recommended to taki
your Pills. Aflcr using theui for three months
the result is that I am now in better hculth thai
I have been for eleven years past, and indeed ai
well as ever 1 was in my life. You are quite a
liberty to make this known for tire benefit o
others. I remain, sir, yours respectfully,

NEW 1 ELEGANT PASTIME.
From the New London Chronicle.
BEAUTIFUL BIJOU.
"JA'Ssra. Crosby, Nichols, & Co., Ill, Washington
street, Boston, have sent us one of tho
prettiest pieces of Holiday Bijouterie that wo
have aeon for many a day. It consists of a miniature
volume printed in tip-top style, with gilded
cover and gilt-edged leaves, containing a
poetical history of Fanny Giay, accompanied by
six elegant cards illustrating some of the most
picturesque events of her life, in colored lithograph,
or, to speak more to purpose, showing
how a pretty girl looks In six different situations,
and a.- many different costumes,?in short, oxib|
its one head upon half a dozen pair of shoulders,
I with tho changes which dress produces upon
I the same face and features; for Fanny's head, inI
stead of becoming 'turned' as sonic girl's heads
sometimes are by their finery, Is so contrived as
| to slip off, when site gets too fond of one dress,
ami is put on to n new pair of shoulders, in a
new form and in a new suit of clothes,?winding
up in the rich costume of womanhood, with a
pet greyhound by her side. The first of the series
of pictures represents the cottage whore
Fanny was born, with a sylvau stream crossed
1 l?y a beautiful bridge, ami shaded by the noble
' oak tree that shadows Its garden. The whole
' of these pictures, with the portable head piece
1 of the heroine, and the little volume of letter'
press history, are put up in an drnnmcntul box
1 superbly colored and embellished by gold and
faucy colored designs, among which is Fanny in
blue and gold, feeding her chickens. We can
! ha:dly imagine any thing prettier than too little
girls engaged in enjoying It together; one read- I
ing the verses describing the pictuies shown,
and the other putting the parts in their p.npcr
places."
From the St is Bedford Mercury.
: "A dainty box, brilliantly adorned,.^contains
colored costumes to he varied at will of our
, charming Fantty ; and her life is versified in a
r little book accompanying these, as delicate an
, the young heroine hciself. The designs are
, beautiful, and drawn ami colored in the most
, finished manner. Thin is evidently one of the
catering for the Holidays; and every one knows
J some dear little giil, from six to tea yeats of
. age, who would fill the companionship of Fanny
j Gray with ecstasy. Nothing could be prctHcr
than the idea of its execution."
' From the Salem Observer.
, "As a specimen of the beautiful art of priuting
in colors, Fanny Gray is inimitable."
