This is to certify that I have used DR.. R. H.
Worthington's Cholera medicine in my family for
the last four or five weeks, in several cases of Bowel
Complaint, so common in our vicinity, with inva-
riable success. One of the cases was that of a negro
child, some four or FIVE mounths old, who was so
emaciated by the effects of the disease, that its life
was nearly d~espaired of when my wife happened to
think that she would try the Cholera Medicine
and did so with complete success in less than forty.

family, should be without so fine n medicine.

our friend, Mr.. L. T.. Spiers, recommending DR.. R.
H. Worthin gton's Cholera Mixture to the public,
for the cure of diarrhea, dysentery, and other kim

the happy effects of its use, as well as other members
Of my family, I can safely say that | regard it su-
perior to any remedy we have ever used, in an ex-

commend it to every family as an invaluable remedy
and every individual to procure a bottle and keeE
it by them in these times of cholera.

eight days. Being some sixty miles from nome,
I made use ofalI the remedies I could think of, but
without ~affording any relief. On arriving at home,
was informed that DR.. R. H. Worthington had
prepared a remedy for Cholera, &C., and was advl-

With the year 1855 will commence a new
and greatly enriched series of this already pop

THE HOME OURNAL.


THE first number of the new series will be
l. issued on the first of January next. New
subscribers can be supplied from that date; but
immediate application will be necessary for
such as desire to begin with the beginning. A
home is hardly complete, we think we may
safely venture to say, without the HOME JoUR-
NAL, which, besides being a chronicle of the
times, abounds in intelligence designed to enli-
ven an American Home. Its editors Geo. p.
Morris and N. p. Willis) devote their entire
time, skill and experience, to the task of Civ
ing, each week, everything worth knowing
They particularly keep eye on all the whims
and novelties of the day. The utmost pains
are taken to present the facts and outlines of all
news. In the literary department, we aim at
sketches and readable criticism, and in our con-
densations of the productions of the vast news
paper world Of Europe, we endeavor to avoid
the tiresome and the local, and transfer to our
columns the pick of English information and
brilliancy, while we endeavor to select with a
true sense of pure morals, true wit, and genu-
inc humour. In addition to the above, we have
made new arrangements for feature that is al
ways attractive in family journal. From sev-
eral different sources we are to be supplied
with THE NEWS AND GOSSIP OF NEw-YoRK So
CIETY. In metropolis like ours, centre the
more sparkling elements of the life of our
country at large, and collision and attrition
bring out much would else be dormant. Afioat,
in society gossip, is small world, of which
the ordinary newspapers make no report, and
of this we think we can promise amusing pho
tographs. In announcing also, A NEW SERIES
OF ARTICLES BY MR. WILLIS, in addition to
his usual editorial labours, we claim the privi-
lege of leaving them to designate their own
style and title as they appear. They are to be
QUITE DIFFERENT FROM ANYTHING WHICH
HAS EVER BEEN PUBLISHED IN THIS JOURNAL
FROM HIS PEN, and we are very sure they will
| be no less attractive, to say the least. The
graphic and highly finished sketches, by s'The
| Lady of Shalott,' p s'Timothy Quaint and 9TH
ers, will be continued. We have also new cor.

send us much that could never reach us through
| foreign journals.
