OF GERMANY

OF GERMANY,
THE GREATEST OF HUMAN HENEFAcToRs.
Ciizess IF North and South America,
To Louis Offon Goelicke, M. ID. Of Germa-
ny, Europe, belongs the impershable honor
Of adding new and precious doctrine to the
science Of medicine doctrine which, though
vehemently opposed by many Of the faculty,
(ofwhich he IS a valuable member he proves
to beas well founded IN truth as any doctrine in
Holy WTit--a doctrine, upon the verify Of
which are suspended the lives Of millions Of
our Eaces and which he boldly challenges his
opponents to reiute, viz: Consumption IS a
disease alicays OccaSioned By a disordered state
Of Vas VitG Cor Life Principle, J of The human
body: G5s gien secretly lurking N The system
for gears before there Is the least complaint Of
the Lltngs-and acaich may be as certainly,
though not so quickly, cured, as common cold
on simple headache. An iEvalnabiy precious
doctrine this, as it inparts animportant lesson
to the apparently healthy of both sexes, teach
ing them that this insidious foe may be an I'M
observed inmate Of their s'clayey houses" even
while they imagine themselves secure from its
attacks, teaching them that the great secret in
the art of preserving health is to pluck out the
disease while in the blade, and not wait till the
full grown ear.
This illustrlous benefactor of man is also en-
titled to the unfeigned gratitude Of a world, for
the invention ofhis Matches Sanative whose
healing fiat may justly claim for it such title,
since it has so signally Tlumphed over our
great common enemy u CONSUMPTION,
both in the first and last stages-a medicine
which has thoroughly filled the Uacuum in the
mateira medca, and thereby proved itself the
GT CongUeror Of Physicians--a medicine, for
which al mankind viii have abundant cause to
bless the benifcent hand of a kind Providence,
Ia medicine, whose WondroHs virtues have
been so glowing portrayed even by some Of
our clergy, in their pastoral visits to the sick
chamber by which means they often become
the happy instruments exchanging desponden-
cy into hope, sickness into health, and sadness
offriends into ioyfnlness.
GOeIickc's Matches SanaIiVc,
A medicine of more value to man than the vast
mines Of Austria, or even the united treasures
Of our globe-asnedicine, which is obtained
equally from the vegetable, animal and mineral
kingdoms, and thus possesses three-fold pow
era medicine, which though designed as a
remedy for-consumption solely, is possessed OF
mysterious influence over many diseases OF
the human SYSTEM medicine, which begins
to be valued by Physicians, who are daily wit
Messing its astonishing cures of many whom
they had resigned to the grasp Of the Insatia-
bic Grave.
Dose Of the Sanative, for adults, one drop !;
for children, half drop; and for infants, a

A certificate from three members Of the Medical
Profession IN Germany, IN Europe.
We, the undersigned, practitioners of med
icine in Germany, are well aware that, by our
course, we may forfeit the friendship of some
of the faculty, but not Of its benevolent MEM
bers, who are uninfuenced by selfish motives.
Though we shall refrain from an expression of
our opinion, either Ofthe soundness or unseupd-
ness of DR.. Goelicke's ne1o doctrine, we are
happy to say that we deem his Sanative too
valuable net to be generally known-for what
our eyes behold and our ears hear, we must be-
heve.
We hereby state, that when DR.. Louis Offon
Goelicke first came before the German public,
as the pretended discoverer of new doctrine
and anew medicine, we held him in the high
est contempt, believing and openly pronounc-
! ing him to be base impostor and the prince
OF uuacks. But, on hearing so much said about
the Sanative, against it and for it, we were in
duced, from motives of curiosity merely, to
make trial of its reputed virtues upon anumber
of our most hopeless patients and we now
deem it our bounden duty (even at the ex-
pense Of our selfinterest) publicly to acknowl-
edge its efficacy IN curing not only consump-
ton, but other fearful maladies, which we have
heretofore believed to be incurable. Our con-
tempt for the discoverer of this medicine was
at once swallowed up in our utter astonish-
ment at these unexpected results and, as
amends for our abuse of him, we do frankly
confess to the world, that we believe him 4
philanthropist, who does honor to the profes.
sion, and to our country, which gave him both
The recent adoption of this medicine into
some Of our European hospitals is a sufficien
guaranty that it performs all its promises. /
needed not our testimony, for wherever it il
used it is its own best witness.

FTNHE Trustees Of this Institution met on
Il the20th ultimo, and adopted the follow
ing resolutions
Resolred, That the board of each young lady
be 500 per session of twenty weeks, to be
paid one half in advance.
This sum is intended to include room, bed
ding, fuel, washing, and oil other contingent
and extra charges connected with the boarding
department.
Resolred, That the prices Of Tuition be as
follows:
Preparatory Department, pr session, $16 90
Advanced Department, 20 90
This Department embraces all the studies
usually taught in the higher schools.

1t will be perceived from the foregoing reso-
lutions, that the rates of boarding and tuition
have bern changed from the former prices
This course the Trustees have been obliged to
adopt. They have employed competent and
efficient instructesses, who must be literally
compensated, and the resources of the institu-
ton are the only fund from which that COM
pensation should be drawn. Hitherto this fund
has proved insufficient.
The rates which are now established; both
for board and tuition, are such as are adopted
in other and neighboring schools, and are sucn
as the necessities of the College demand.
ResolUed, That no young lady be admitted
as student in the College till the aohole tut
ton, and half the boarding fees be paid at the
time she joins the College

note, stating that person wanted to sec him
near the Western Bank after dark, on matters OF
Importance, and il was requested that no one
should accompany him. The last request was
not, however complied with, and the person
robbed, taking friend with him, went to the
place indicated. Upon ARRIVING there, they
found young man well dressed aud apparently
well educated, who, at once, without reserve,
stated that he had committed the robbery. That
being distressed for money! he had, in moment
OF desperation, entered his room and taken the
money from the pocket book That he had no
idea at the btime, Of the amount heS was tax
ing, but upon examining it AMI finding that
what he had taken was five hundred and two
one hundred dollar notes, land then rejecting on
the infamy of the crime he had committed, he
was COMPOUNDED. It was in vain that he sought
to solace his mind by urging the necessity which
prompted him to the act sleep was banished
from his eyes, and miserable being he wander
ed about, shrinking from the gaze of every one
he encountered, and expecting every moment to
he arrested. Shame prevented him from return
ing the money and he took it several miles from
the city and buried it. This brought no quiet
TO his disturbed conscience. The thought of
his guilt was uppermos in his mind, and he had
determined TO return the money through the
Post Office, and dug it up, and enclosed it III
blank sheet of paper for that purpose. His hon
esty having so far overcome the suggestions of
pride, led him to go further. The return of the
money would not relieve innocent persons, who
might be suspected, from suspicon,- and it was
this reflection that had forced him, as he snid, to
return the money in person. Saying this, the
young man placed the money in the hands of its
true owner, and further remarked, that he was
in his power, and desired to avoid punish
ment which he might suppose he merited. The
gentleman took it, and bid him go and Sl9l no
