ident Van Buren's family, who have cross
ed the Atlantic 10 ape the aristocracy of
England. Although Mr.. Van Buren, pro-
fesses SO much democracy, many Of our

PRESENTATIONS At CouRT.-We have
heard much said lately, of the ridiculous
ambition Of our countrymen TO be presen.
ted at the Court of Queen Victoria, and
have been much surprised to learn that
the greater number of the DISTINGUISHED
Americans at the court of ST. James;
were either members Of the Presidents
family, or belonging to the Democratic
party. In relation to our feeling, we use
the term surprised, but when we are per-
sonally acquainted with many of the par.
ties, and recollect that they are upstairs of
fungous growth, who have only sense
enough to profit by the present hour, be-
fore they are consigned to that obscuritys
as total as the void of their minds, and
which they so much deserve, we must
confess that zoe are not surprised. AS
instance the attache of the American Lee

Bennett facetitiously STYLES him, who; if
we were to call fool, would probably
challenge us for our holiness, but whose
value we weigh against our own, without
vanity, as n5nentity to an entity, and
whose intellect consists In the supefior
qualifications of being the son of wealthy
South Carolina planter and in infinite mon
key griniaces, which borrowed from that
respectable animal, would dishonor it in
the attempted but ridiculous imitation!
But we are sick of subject in which we
can see so much worthy of contempt, and
nothing deserving praise.

BADNESS.

A BEAUTIFUL head of Hair is the grandest
IN ornament belonging to the human frame.
How strangely the loss of it changes the
countenance, and. prematurely brings ON the
appearance of old age, which causes many to
recoil at being uncovered, and sometimes even
shun society to avoid the jests and sneers Of
their acquaintance the remainder of their
lives is consequently spent in retirement. In
short, not even the loss of property fills the
generous thinking youth with that heavy sink
ing gloom as does the loss of his hair. To
avert all these unpleasant circumstances, OIL
DRIGE'S BALM OF COLUMBIA stops the
hair from falling off on the first application, and
a few bottles restores it again. 1t likewise
produces eyebrows and whiskers prevents
the hair from turning gray, makes it curl beau
tifully, and frees it from scurf Numerous
certificates of the first responsibility in sup
port Of the virtues of Oldrige's Balm are shown
by the proprietors.

HEADACHE.

DR. E. SPOHN, German physician Of
~ much note, having devoted his atten-
tioD for some years to the cure and removal
of the causes of NERVOUS AND SICK
HEADACHE, has the satisfaction to make
known that he has a remedy which by remoy-
ing the causes cures effectualy and permanent-
ly this distressing complaint. There are many
families who have considered Sick Headache
a constitutional incurable family complaint. Dr..
s. assures them that they are mistaken, and
laboring under distress which they might not
only alleviate, but actually eradicate by the
use of this remedy.
1t is the result of scientific research, and is
entirely of different character from advertis-
ed patent medicines, and is not unpleasant to
the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that DR..
Spohns remedy for this distressing complaint
is every day gaining is certainly a matter Of
much establishment. That SO much suffering
should have existed for ages without any dis
coyery OF an effectual preventative or cure, is
truly subject Of much regret, but DR.. s. now
assures the public that such a remedy has been
invented as will convince the most credulous.
The principles upon which it acts are simple
and plain. 1t is an admitted fact this COM
plant, whether called Sick Headache, or Ner-
vous Headache arises primarily from the stom-s
ach-those who think they have the Nervous
Headache may rest assured that this organ,
the stomach, is the first cause, that the system
has been yitiated or debilitated, through the
stomach, and that only through the same chan
mel must they expect restoration of the ma
tural and healthy functions of the system
This object, DR.. Spohn's remedy is eminently
calculated to attain. The truth of this posi-
tion cannot be controyertcd, and the sooner
sufferers with the headache become convinced
Of it, the sooner will their sufferings end in
restoration of health. DR.. Spohn pledges his
professional reputation on this fact. The rem
edy may be had ofapothecaries generally thro'-
out the U. s.
