(Signed) Ito ULAND.

The office of Recording Secretary of the Ame-
rican Social Science Association, made vacant by the retire-
ment of Mr. F. B. Sanborn, has been filled by the choice
of Mr. Henry Villard, of Boston, who is to receive a salary
and devote his whole time to the duties of the place,
which, up to this time, have been performed without com-
pensation. An office of the association will now be opened
in Boston, and Mr. Villard will take charge of it. As soon
as circumstances permit, a branch office will be opened in
New York, and the long deferred publication of the papers
of the association will soon be made. A general meeting
of the association is to be held on the third Wednesday of
January, at some place yet to be determined. Mr. Villard,
the new secretary, is a German by birth, but has long
lived in America, and is well known to the press, having
been one of the most active war correspondents. He has
been connected with the New York and Chicago Tribunes,
the Cincinnati Commercial, and the Boston Advertiser, but
two years ago retired from active service, and soon after
married the only daughter of William Lloyd Garrison, of
whose household he has since been a member. He was a
successful journalist, and is believed to have high (valid-
' cations for his now office, which is likely to be an im-
portant one.
(ADVERTISEMENT ]—Consumption, and all nervous, bilious,
stomach,and liver complaints in every stage are only aggravated
and accelerated by drugs of every description, but perfectly
curable by Du Barry's health-restoring Revalenta Arabica Food,
as proved by thousands of cases which had been considered
hopeless; such as indigestion (dyspepsia), cough, asthma, con
gumption, habitual constipation, diarrhoea, all gastric derange-
ments, hemorrhoids, liver complaints, flatulency, nervousness,
biliousness, fevers, sore throats, diphtheria, catarrhs, colds, in-
fluenza, noises in the head and ears, rheumatism, gout, impu-
rities, eruptions, hysteria, neuralgia, irritability, sleeplessness,
acidity, palpitation, heartburn, headache, debility, dropsy,
cramps, spasms, nausea and sickness, even in pregnancy or at
sea, sinking tits, bronchitis, scrofula, tightness of the chest,
pains at the pit of the stomach, and between the shoulders, &c
We quote a few.—The Pope's health restored by Du Barry's
Food. Cure No 68,4132—"R0me, July 21, 1866.—The health of
the Holy Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all
other remedies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's
Revalenta Arabica Food, of which he consumes a plateful
at every meal. It has proiuced a surprisingly beneficial
effect on his health, and his Holiness cannot praise this
excellent food too highly." From the "Gazette du Midi,'
July 25. Cure No. 46,270. Mr. James Roberts, timber mer-
chant, of Frimley, Surrey, of thirty years' diseased lungs,
spitting of blood, liver derangement, and partial deafness.—

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.' Important Caution.—Beware of the many
unsavoury and more than sloppy imitations to which, without
authority, Baron Liebig's name is most audaciously attached.
