HE OTTUMwA SEMINARY.-We would
call the attention of our citizens to the fact
that this popular Institution comm .nces a
new term on Monday February 18th, under
anspicies of the most favorable character.
1t now has corps of teachers equal in ab;l.
ity and skill to any school in the country.
The Teachers, Rev. j. NJ. McElroy, SO long
identified with the school as it's founder and
principal teacher, and Mr.. H. L. McGinitie,
ayoung gentleman of superior education
and requirements, Miss Holloway and Miss
Wilson, both of them accomplished instruc.
tors, Miss Laswell, whose abilities are well
known in the department of music. Their
names give assurance Of ample arrangements
to impart instruction in every branch of
study in the most satisfactory manner.
This School really deserves the encourage
ment OF our citizens, in preference to foreign
Schools. Mr. McElroy has labored indie
fatigably to establish and maintain a good
School here, he has employed the best teach
ers, and ne ought to be sustained. at all
avents we hope all who have children to
educate will inform themselves o, the sub.
ject and give the preference to School at
home. II this can be done, we can have a
permanent School Of a high order, certainly
very desirable thing.

None but physician knows how much q
reliable dtteratioe is needed by the people.
On all sides of us, in all communities every.
where there are multitudes that suffer from
complaints that nothing but an Alternative
cures. Hence great many Of them have
been made and put abroad with the assur.
ance Of being effectual But they fail to &C.
complish the cures because they have not
the intrinsic virtues they claim. In this
state Of the case, DR.. j. @. Aver & Co.. OF
Lowell. have supplied US with a compound
Extract Of Sarsaparilla. which dses prove to

We are assured Of this fact by more than
