Why is it,

"Why is it, we are frequently question
ed, that every one prefers to purchase their
books of the great Gift Book Establishment
Of D. W. Evans 4 Co., GIT Broadway, New
York City, when there are so many compe-
titors in the field Of trade, each striving to
call the attention of the public to the various
ad yantages offered by them. Having had
some dealings with this House, we are pre-
pared to state that they owe their unparalel-
led success, not to their wealth or expert
ence, which has given them so high STAN
ding among their compeers, but simply to
the undertaking line Of integrity which they
have followed from the commencement Of
their business career.
The firm I'D. w. Evans &, Co. is not to
be confounded with others advertising in
different cities under similar name they
located their business in 1854, long before
any firm now in operation had an existence
and it is known as the Pioneer Gift Book
Store, being the Oldest established, and
most extensive in the world
70 enumerate their various advantages
and facilities, in advance Of their COMPETE
tors, would fill column, but among the
more noticeable features, we may call atten-
ton to the fact that they take all risk of loss
| through the mail, which is not done BY any
other House in the trade; so that any one,
by following their directions, can purchase
as safely and cheaply, with the assurance of
a quick and abundant return for their in
vestment, as at their own doors
Owing to the immense business transac-
ted with the different Express Companies
the freight charges on packages are COM
partively light, while they are forwarded
with the greatest dispatch to their different
points ofdestination From two hundred tt
three hundred packages daily are wbirled
over the iron rail to every section of the
country, each parcel Of different values
ranging from ten dollars to five hundred
Nor is their patronage entirely confined
to this country. It is strange item of this
wonderful system that Messrs Evans & Go.
have extended their business transactions tc
every known quarter Of the globe-South
America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia
and even the Sandwich Islands, in the mids
Of the wide Pacific all have lent their pat
ronage to the s'Original Git Book Store
ofD. w. Evans s. 70.
Che number Of persons Who directly OF
indirectly find honorable and lucrative EN-.
! ployment through their business is scarcely
credible. Aside from tie many clerks en-
pIoyed night and day at the store in New
York, over three thousand agents are loca-
ted III different parts Of the United States,
to collect and forward orders to their great
Receiving House. Their intention is TO
have a permanent agent located in every
town throughout the country, so that by the
end Of the present year the member Of their
employees viii exceed tscenty thousand

Women.

For long, it was the common opinion a.
mong the Lords Of Creation that women
were destitute Of the capacity to master the
occult sciences, and that the avenues to any
attainments beyond the purely ornamental
were completely closed against them. In
deed, SO fixed had become this sentiment,
that even the poor dear darlings themselves
were in some degree contaminated by the
heresy, and were beginning to think them
selves set of mere gumps. But the his
tory of the present century has dispelled the
illusion, and we bow with reverence before
the illlstrious memory of the author Of Co.
rinne, the gifted daughter Of Neckar, and
offer unbought homage to the names Of
Blessington and II emans and Sigourney and
Lomax and L E. L., and hundred others
who have contributed to rescue their sex
from the degrading charge of inferiority.
under which they had SO long and so unjust
y suffered.
We do not expect or desire that our wo-
men should become statesmen orjurists, but
we do wish to see them prepared to take the
position, that so we'll becomes them, Of
guides and teachers to future Senators -
The energetic efforts of our friends of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, have almost
brought to perfection the system Of female
education. The chemical and philosophi-
cal apparatus which they propose to add,
during the year, to the already UNUSUAL IA
cilities which they now possess, will COM
pare with those Of most of the male colleges
in the State, and as we learn that the fnan-
ces oftEe school are in the most Furnishing
condition, we take it for granted that no ex-
pense will be spared to render everything
complete. In testimony of this VIC will
state that the services of DR. H. Anderson,
a graduate of the University Of Virginia.
and Of course finished scholar, have bee1
retained, and that he has engaged to deliv-
er before tie school. weekly lectures on the
important subjects Of Physiology and Hyge-
inc. Nor are the potter branches of edu-
cation neglected in the meantime. Pro-
fessor Turner will continue to give instruc-
ton in Piano music, and sweet sounds gen
orally, bat as his attachments are so we'll
known to the public, we will only say that
he deserves his reputation. The fact is, that
Staunton is, Of all places in Virginia, the
best suited for female schools. Geograph-
lea lily it is near the centre Of the State; the
cars, stages and telegraph reach here from
all sections; the health Of the whole sur
rounding country is undoubted. and the
morality of the population unimpeached.-
Added to these numerous advantages, the
Methodist school is now being presided over
by gentleman most eminently fitted for
the high responsibility, combining all the
gentleuess Of the parent with the frmness
Of the teacher. In short, Mr.. Arbogast is
a finished scholar and gentleman, and be-
ing these, we can ask for nothing more.
