The Family Journal.

We call attention to the advertisement of
be enterprising publishers of this Southern
Weekly Newspaper. The Family Journal
has now been in successful operation long
enough to ensure its continuance as perma-
nency, and we can but commend the energy
which has brought the enterprise through
its struggle for existence against what would
almost appear deep-rooted prejudice in the
South against Southern Weeklies. May we
not hail its success so far, as the turn of that
tide which has swept off all former efforts.
We should like our city and vicinity to
greet these enterprising gentlemen, Messrs
Williams It Moore, publishers of the Family
Journal, with three or four hundred subscri-
bsrs to their paper, as an assurance that we
are alive to the Importance of sustaining
everything like Southern enterprise in pre-
ference to that or the North.

GH@ DYSPEPSIA.--That most troublesome
liz and painful of all diseases, it is now
ascertained, can be efectually cured. Many
have been the preparations gotten up to attain
this object, but with one solitary exception,
we believe, all have failed of their purpose
Or. j. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters-the one re.
ferred to-however, has proved such an inval-
liable remedy for all diseases OF the stomach,
that no one at all conversant with its history,
will question its efficacy in cases OF the most
alarming character. Thousands, by the fire.
quent use of the Bitters, have enjoyed an
equally speedy and efectual restoration to
physical strength and vigor All who are SUI
fering from diseases arising from foul stom
ach, Should not fail or hesitate to use it.
