The Roman Traitor
or, the days Of
CATO AND c THINE.
A TRUE TALE OF THE REPUBLIC.
BY HENRY WILLIAM HERBERT,
AuthOr of " CrOmweH," etc, etc.

THIS splendid work is published complete
l. in two large volumes, of over 80 pages
each, paper cover, price FIFTY CENTS n
volume, or the whole work handsomely
bound in one volume. cloth, price One Dol
lar and Twenty five Cents
This is one of the most powerful Roman
Stories in the English language, and is of
itself sufficient to stamp the writer as n
powerful man. The dark ntrgues of the
days which Caesar, Sallrst, and Cicero made
illustrious; when Cntalinc defed and al
most defeated the Senate; when the plots
which ultimately overthrow the Roman Re-
public were being formed, are described in
masterly manner. The book deserves pro-
minent position by the side of the great
Beiium CatdiindriHm of Sallust, and, if We
mistake not, will not fail to occupy pro-
minent place among those produced in
America.

accompanying evils, lancer excepted,) no mat
ter how severe or of how long standing.
That this CATHOLICON is in every way wor-
thy of the confidence of the afflicted as success
full, safe, and cheap remedy is vouched for by
the fact of its having received the appreciation
and liberal patronage of many prominent mem
bers of the Medical Faculty in the United
States; and also by thesyOluntary testimonials
given in the pamphlets, from Ladies and Physl-
clans of the highest respectability as certified by
the most satisfactory authoity.
This preparation is not 'cure- all, " but is IN
tended expressly for theaboye-named complaints,
so very distressing in their nature and conse-
quenceS, and which | ave heretofTe resisted the
skill and exertions of the most accomplished ply
scans of all countries, to degree beyond that
of perhaps any other malady to which the hut
man family is heir.
THE INGREDIENTS as cert fed by high med

ABLE, and are not associated with any article
unfriendly to the animal economy.
