THE FATHER OF WATERs.-The vastness
of the great Mississippi river is thus Civ
er by a newspaper correspondent, who
writes from Maiden Rock, Wisconsin:
"While | look upon the river three
miles wide at this point, my mind seems
to take in at one grasp the magnitude Of
the stream. From the frozen regions Of
tn north to the sunny south, it extends
same twenty-three hundred miles, and
with the Missouri is 4,500 miles in length
1t would reach from New York across the
Atlantic, and extend from France to Tur-
key and the Caspian sea. Its average
depth from its source in Lake ltasca, Mi
nesota, to its delta in the Gulf of Mexico.
is fifty feet and half mile wide. The
trapper on the Upper Mississippi can
take the furs of the animals that inhabit
its sources and exchange them for the tro-
piCal fruits that are gathered on the bank
below. Slaves toll at one end of this great
thoroug' fare, while the free red men of
the forest roam at the other end. The
floods are more than a month in travelling
from its source to its delta. The total
number ofsteamers afoat on this river and
its tributaries are l,500-more than twice
the entire tonnage of England, and equal
to 'hat Of all other parts of >he world. 1t
receives a score of tributaries, the least Of
which are stronger than the vaunted
streams Of mighty empires. 1t might fur
nish natural boundaries for all Europe,
and yet leave for every country a river
longer than the Seine. 1t engulfs more
every year than the revenue of many petty
Kingdoms, and rolls a volume in whose
depths the cathedral of st. Paul could be
sunk out Of sight. 1t discharges in one
year, more water than has issued from the
Tiber in five centuries it swallows up ff.
| ty rivers which have no names, each OF
which are longer than the Thames. The
addition of the waters of the Danube
would not swell it half fathom in one
single reservoir (Pepin) $500 miles from
the sea, the navies might safely ride at
anchor. 1t washes the shores of twelve
powerful States and between its arms lie
spaces for twenty more"

cial endowment for the relief of the sick

lent and Epidemic diseases.
THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION, in
Aview Of the awful destruction of human
life, caused by Sexual diseases, and the de-
ceptlons practised upon the unfortunate VIC
Tins of such diseases by Quacks, several
years ago directed their Consulting Surgeon

to open Dispensary for the treatment of
this class Of diseases, in all their forms, and
to give Medical Advice Gratis,to all who
apply by letters, with description Of their
condition, (age, occupation, habits Of life,
&c. and in cases of extreme poverty, to
Furnish Medicines Free of Charge. 1t is
needless to add that the Association COM
imands the highest Medical skillofthe age,
and will furnish the most approved modern
treatment.
The Directors of the Association, in
their annual Report upon the treatmont Of
Sexual Diseases, for the year ending jan
uary lst, 1858, express the highest satis-
faction with the success which has attend
ed the labors of the Consulting Surgeon in
the cure Of Spermatorrhea, Seminal Weak
ness, Impotence, Gonorrhea, Gleet, Svph-
Ills, the vice of Onanism or Self-abuse, &c,
and order continuance of the same plan
for the ensuing year.
The directors, on review Of the past feel
assured that their labors in this sphere Of
benevolent effort, have been of great BEN
eft to the afflicted, especially tethe Young,
and they have resolved to devote themsel-
yes, with renewed zeal, to this very i'm
portant and much despised cause.
An admirable Report on Spermatorrheay
or Seminal Weakness, the Vice Of Onanism.
