THRIsTIE's GALyANIC AND MAGNETIC
" CURATIvEs.-Fora Nervous Diseases these
celebrated articles are positive and absolute spe
cifc.
The Belt IL used when the body or system gene
rally is affected; the Necklace for complaints OF the
throat, ne asthma and bronchitis, and Of the head;
and the Bracelets for any disorders Of the arms or
limbs, as rheumatism, palsy, tremors, and spasmo-
die affections. These articles are simply applied
as directed with the Magnetic Fluid which accom-
pany them, and when faithfully used they never
fail.
The great popularity and excellence Of the Gal
vanic Curatives consist in the fact that they arrest
and cure disease by outward application, In place
Of the usual method Of drugging and physicking
the patient till exhausted nature sinks hopelessly
under the infection. They strengthen the whole
system, equslxc the circulation OF the blood, pro-
mote the secrctions, invgorate the entire energies,
and can never do the slightest harm under any cir
cumstances

To Bee CulturiStS and Others.

EI ELSEY'S Alternating Bee Hive, patented -M "a May 9th, 1646. These Hives, the only ones of real value and utility to farmers and oth- CTS engaged in the culture of Bees now before l the public, are constructed upon natural princi- | pies, and combine the following advantages. The bees are easily hived in them; 1t never | becomes necessary to kill off the swarms, and honey can at all times be taken away without disturbing the bees; the swarms are entirely pro- tected from robbery by neighboring bees, and from mice and insects; they can be handled with perfect safety, and always living and breeding in new honey combs, are kept entirely healthy, and young swarms are always fully developed; l the eggs or embryo of the bee moth or miller, cannot hatch or mature around these hives, therefore the bees are entirely protected from 1 the ravages of that destructive enemy, while | the alternating principle is such that the bees are kept industrious the whole season though, by always having plenty of room to work in; 1 old honey-comb cannOtaccumulate, nor will the l bees "run Out'' or ''die off" in these hives. They have been fully tested by actual use by upwards of five thousand extensive bee cultur- istS.
 This patent gained diploma from the Mary land State Agricultural Society, held at Balt- more l0th llth and 18th of October, 1649. Ample directions accompany each hive, giv- ing full instructions for the management of bees. They are sold very cheap; and all farmers aud other persons who keep bees, or wish to enter into that profitable culture, will find these hives all that can be desired.
 The subscriber, as attorney and agent for the patentee for the State of Arkansas, is now in Helena, and ready to grant individual rights, or to sell counties, townships or districts, to parties desirous of engaging in a lucrative and pleasant occupation. A gentleman in Ohio cleared up- wards of $20,000 in less than seven months.
 According to an interesting calculation by a bee culmrist, which is given in full in the trea- tse accompanying this hive, he proves how, in about ten years, any bee culturistmay be worth nearly $38,O10, simply by the sale the honey, and swarms.
 The price of an individual right to make use ofthis patent hive is $5.

 WATCHES! WATCHES!

HINOR years the strife has been not who could E. make thebest Watch, but who could make the cheapest or rather the lowest priced article, which is not always the cheapest, and conse- quently the great falling off in the quality or watches.
 We import our Watches direct from England France and Germany and have been l2 months in preparing our present stock. Our aim has been to have a splendid assortment of Fine Watches-as fine as Europe can producc--this, in addition to a full assortment of the low and medium qualities, we are now prepared to show the public, all of which will be sold at small advance on the importing cost.

FEMME has many tricks; too many to suit the
 Al general taste ofthe community;for instance, Time is always lame and tardy when one is waiting for the cakes; in consequence of which trick of Time the cry is so frequently heard of 'hurry up the cakes!'' On the contrary, when you are not waiting for them, and some one lsays, "you can take the cakes!" Time seems Ito jump as if 1t was galvanized-talking of gal yanism, you may always notice-if you are in | the habit of noticing-that galvanized Watches Igo with jerk, which is beautiful illustration
 of the power of electricity; many people think that this power will eventually 'get us,' others think that we are already ''got;" my own inclin- alton is at an angle of about l5 degress toward both-my greatest inclination, however, is to regulate Time; to this object am lending all my
 energies. Greatmen like Lord Byron come ''out upon time," with poetcal rhapsody because ''it forever will leave But enough ofthe Past for the Future to grieve"- humble men like myself are out upon 1t with a l round faced hammer and watch brush, because Ii will never leave any more than just enough to Hive by; however, it's my vocation and can al- 1 ways be found at the old stand at the corner ot Madison street and Front Row, better prepared | than any other man in the south or southwest l to fix Watches and Clocks in proper manner
 and at low prices, and always happy to do it. JAS. E. MERRIMAN. Memphis, Dee. 90, l847.
