Grigg & Elliott of Philadelphia, ic affords me pleasure to slate, that the 'Readers' appear to me well adapted to the purpose for whTch they are designed. The lessons are judiciously eelectud, well arranged, and calculated at once to improve the mind and heart. Dr Ruschenberger's series of ?Text Books of Natural History* arc admirable, and supply a deficiency which has long been felt in our Elementary c hools, not to say Colleges, in wh|ch 'the book of Nature fair' has beer, too little studied, and our children and youth, consequently, nay, our grown up men, though living and moving in the midst of the most surprising wonders, neither heed nor feel any interest in them, because they have not the most elementary knowledge to serve as a first step to excite their attend tion, or guide their observations. This state of things need no longer, and we hope will no longer, continue. Dr Ru? schenberger has imposed a new duty upon every intelligent and faithful teacher of youth at once to make himself acquaited with, and communicate to his pupils, the interesting subjects of which these manuals treat: HENRY M.

Spencer's Vegetable Tills, and Vegetable Tonic and Restorative BITTERS. # The value and efficacy of pencer's Vege. table Pill.s have long beer, known and appreciated in a great variety of diseases,and us the best and most important of Family Medicines. Dr penccr having been ac~ tuated by a desire to benefit his fellow beings, ha* also prepared his Vegetable Tonic and-Restorative Bitters, which he now offers to the public, as the result of an * xtensive pruciice, and thorough investigation of the laws which govern the human system. They are purely Vegetable, ond may be tnken with perfect s.ifety by ail ages and sexes in youthful, adult and d<-clining life. The design of pencer's Vegetable Pills and Vegetable Tonic Restorative Bitters, is to create a flow o/ pure healthy bile, in?' stead of the stale and acid kind. The obiect of the Pills is to stimulate all the vital organs of the system into i ction, and thereby cleanse the stomach and bowels of all the morbific and offensive matter with which the system is clogged, and which promotes disease. The Bitters are to strengthen and restore the stomach and vital organs, to their proper tone and vigor. When this is accomplished, good health must be the result. The complaints that come most directly under their influence, and for which they arc so partic ularly designed, are as follows: Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, ick head-ache, Enlargement ofthu plu en, Jaundice,Piles Cholic, Bowel and summer complaints. Impurities of the blood, Female Obstruct tion, Heartburn, Incipient Diarroeh, Habitual Gostiveness, Determination of blood to the head, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or allow Complexion and in all cases of Torpor of the bowels, where a cathartic or apperient medicine i? needed.
