PROSPECTUS.
OF THE
THIRTY-NINTH VOLUME
GREA REDUCTION IN PRICE
THE
Knickerbocker Magazine,

EDITED BY LOUIS GAYLORD CLARK,
will commence its THIRTY-NINTH volume
with the number for January, 1852.
The subscription price of the KNIcKER
BOOKER will be reduced from five dollars

The change is made for reason precise.
ly the reverse of that which ordinarily in
duces publisher to lower the rates Of his
Magazine. This is usually done because
the public alton cannot be sustained at its
originalrate, which is consequently reduced
with the hope of extending its circulation.
This is followed invariably by deteriora
ton of the work, in all its departments,
and in everything relating to it. Indeed
itmay be laid down as rule, in the con-
Quoting of Magazine, that if the original
price will not remunerate for its publica-
ton, 1t is only going from bad to worse to
to reduce that price.
The Knickerboeker at the present time
enjoys larger subscription list, and pays
better, than it ever did before; and of the
twenty years of its existence, the past year
has been the most prosperous.
The Publisher is now in a situation, in
consequence of the condition of the Mag
az'ne, to offer it at THREE DOLLARS pei
annum.
With this reduction there will be nc
change In its form, size, character or quail

THE BETTER; for it will improve on the pas,

GRAEFENBERG CHILDREN'S PANACEA.

most strange and incredible fact meets US at
the very threshold of our remarks on this valuable
medicine. II is this: that no medicine prepared
adapted to the various diseases of children and
youth has ever been offered to The public, bile at
he same time it is established by the most aecu-
rate tables of mortality tina half Of the human
family die before reaching the age eff five years.
We should suppose that TO this great class Of hui
man suferers-this One-ba lf Of the race-the most
anxious and earnest attention would have been
gwen that medical skill would have been tasked
to its utmost capacity to find out a med cine TO
which mothers and muses. might resort under tho
constantly recurring necessities which present
themselves in this connection. The world is lit
orally crowded with M dIcines for adults, but TO
the suferings of children no one has seemed te
turn proper attention. No ore has regarded then
condition, No one has seemed to think it possible
that the ravages Of disease and dea tn among them
light be stay ed 1t is true that there are numcr-
Gus Vermlugcs and Coriials If some value but
each of these confined exclusively to one or
two forms of disease. The Gractenberg Children's
Panacea is the only medicine cxtant to ethe !
hemisphere that is at all worthy of heing ca lied

want alluded TO.

is beyond all question true that the Consump-
ton (phlhlsic pulmonalis) is A Durable DISEASE.
Some of The ablest medical writers assert this /;
among whom we may cite the celebrated names of
Lance, Andral, Cruvllicr, Stokes and Williams.
Their researches, as well as the more recent ones
| Of Royce and Boudet, show that SO far from pu i
monary tnbercle being necessarily fatal, it is
spontaneously cured by nature a vast number of
cases, even when large nlcers have been famed oil
the lungs.
Thd GREAT oBJRcT, is to arreat The progress of
the ulcers Tor tubercles) upon the lungs, and to
| heal them permanently. Health will then follow.
This the Graefenberg Consumptive's Balm Wilde,
and i, is believed to be the only remedy dis
covIed. 1t acts at once upon the tubercles and
invariably arrests their progress, and restores the
lungs 10 soundness. 1t will not Of course repl3ce
those portions of the lungs alrcr consumed, but
it will heal what may be lett; leaving the indi-
vidua in health, though it may be with diminished
| lungs.
