[A.Dvsn'essmENT..l--11enceforth no one will doubt the valuable
properties of Du Barry's health-restoring Revalenta Arabica
Invalids' and Infants' Food, since to the thousands of .blessings
it has already received from Invalids whose position had been
deemed hopeless, we may now add that of his Holiness the Pope,
whose health has been perfectly restored by it after thirty years of
unsuccessful medical treatment. We quote from the "Gazette du
Midi," July 25th :—" Rome, July 21, 1866. - The health of the Holy
Father is excellent. especially since, abandoning all other reme-
dies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta
Arabica Food, of which ho consumes a plateful at every meal.
It has produced a surprisingly beneficial effect on his health, and
his Holiness cannot praise this excellent food too highly." We
extract a few out ofmore than 68,000 cures:—Cure No. 58,216, of
the Marchioness do Brehan, of seven years' liver complaint
wasting away, debility, nervousness, with a nervous palpitation,
all over, bad digestion, constant sleeplessness, and the most in-
tolerable nervous agitation. Cure No 1,771: Lord Stuart do
Decies, Lord-Lieutenant of Waterford, of many years' dyspepsia.
No. 49,832: "Fifty years' indescribable agony from dyspepsia,
nervousness, asthma, cough, constipation, flatulency, spasms,
sickness, and vomiting.—Maria Joly." Cure No. 46,270: Mr.
James Roberts, of Fernley, Surrey, of 30 years' diseased lungs.
spitting of blood, liver derangement, and partial deafness. Im-
portant Caution—Beware of the many unsavoury and more that
sloppy imitations to which, without authority, Baron Liebig's
name is most audaciously attached.

Perhaps the most beautiful in design, as well as
in illustration, of the periodicals lately introduced,
is The Animal World, "a monthly advocate of
humanity," which appeared for the first time this
month. Money is not the object aimed
at ; but, money being useful in achieving all ob-
jects here below, The; Animal World hopes for and
anticipates a strong support from the public. It is
quite evident to a printer that twopence cannot
pay for a magazine twice the size of the Pall-Mall
Gazette, without advertisements, and almost wholly
composed of -original matter. But we presume
the intention is to gain the ear of the people, and
to enlist their sympathies, when the philanthropic
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
will find their path smoothed to some essential re-
forms. Our aim is, says the editor, to protect
animals from torture, ameliorate their condition,
and to awaken in the minds of men a proper sense
of the claims of creatures placed under their domi-
nion. The reas -n the title has been taken has been
to make it comprehensive enough to include " both
man, and bird, and beast ;" the accuracy may be
doubted of the saying that man is the only animal
capable of language ; but he has a monopoly of
speech, which implies a responsibility as speaker
for all other animals, hence the injunction, "Thou
shalt open thy mouth for the dumb." Man is the
natural defender of the defenceless. As king, having
dominion, should lie not protect his subjects ? as a
god, should he not compassionate ? The article
from which we quote goes on to point out how man
benefits by the promotion of humanity to animals,
and it is added that the journal will have " no space
for maudlin sentiments, for ours is a grand practical
work,in which morbid feeling cannot enter without in-
jury to our cause." The articles in this number, inde-
pendent of numerous stories in the first page's,
are on the-practice of bleeding calves, and on
destruction of animals; there is a short
history of the Society, and the annual report. The
magazine opens with a beautiful illustration of a
horse's head, and an article on the horse. The
tales are by such writers as Frank Backland, Mary
llowitt, and Mrs. S. C. Hall. There are several
reviews and numerous well written letters; among
them one from Miss Burdett Coutts, first published
in the Times; and Mr. Angell, an American gentle-
man, in this case appears to have been the moving
spring of that lady's action. He earnestly pressed upon
Miss Coutts the advisability of forming a Ladies'
Humane Society, similar to that existing in Massa-
chusetts. The great object of the paper is to incul-
cate into children principles of humanity towards
animals, and 25,000 copies of The Animal World
will, it is anticipated, be laid before the boys and girls
of England, Ireland, and Scotland monthly. We
expect a much larger sale, for it will be extensively
read in America and in the British Colonies. Its
association with so well-known an American, whom
the Bishop of Gloucester terms " the generous and
eloquent president of the American Society," will
give it an additional interest in that country, where,
perhaps, are to be found the most numerous friends
of the brute creation. The literary excellence of
the work, the fact that it is among the cheapest of
"monthlies," and the interest created in almost
every mind, by the subjects it handles, cannot fail
to give it an extensive circulation, through which
the Society will realise their object, and effectively
strike at the roots, instead of, as hitherto, merely
lopping off the branches of that baneful tree, so
deeply engrafted in our fallen nature.—Anglo-Anze-
rican Times.
