however excellent, is doomed 10 encounter,
To-day 1t stands at the head of all the tonic
and Alternative preparations in existence. Its
celebrity has evoked many limitations but no
rivals. Physicians pronounce il the ONLY
SAFE sriSuLASr that has ever been introdu-
ced into the sick chamber. In the hospitals
of the Army and Navy, the surgeons find it
the very best tonic for convalescents, and re-
port il as Invaluable for sustaining the vigor
OF troops on the march, as a remedy for sour
Wy and all scorbatic affections, and as the
only specific for sea-sickness. California and
Australia have emphatically endorsed It as
the Miners MEDICINE par excellence, and in
Spanish Ameri,a asd all the tropical eli
mates, it is considered the only reliable an
tidote 10 epidemic fever.
There is no mystery about the causes Of its
success. Ii is the only stomachic and alter
alive in which are combined the grand re-
quisites Of n mild, pure, and unyitia,ed vege-
table stimulant, with the finest selection OF
tonic, anti-bilious, anti-scorbutic, apperien,
and depurative herbs, plants, roots aud barks
that have ever been intermixed in q pIedici'
nal preparation.
Ii is also proper to state that the Bitter,

MADISON SrREsr AeAIN.-We do not de-
sire TO make our Madison street friends vain
by calling attention to the beautiful street
on which they reside and the many improve
ments made thereon, but we cannot refrain
from noticing the elegant job of painting
done by R. B. Tarpley h Co., upon the man
sion owned by DR.. Finley. The architectu.
raj beauty of the building is such as to ena-
Bile the painter to use his brush to advantage,
and this firm has certainly done SO in this
instance.
We hope the carpenters hammer, the
bricklayers trowel and the painters brush
may be kept in constant use this summer in
identifying and adjoining our already beah-
tiful little city.

Qua FEMALE AcApRMY.---It Is with pleas
ure that we add ours to the universal opin-
ion, that the Principal and Teachers Of the
Female Academy have achieved signal
triumph, and won for themselves and the
Institution an enviable fame. The examiua-
tion--uot yet closed-has been of the most
thorough character, and conducted in man.
ner to satisfy all present that there was no
special preparation Of the pupils-as is too
often the case--and that their thorough
knowledge Of the branches studied, was the
result of careful and competent instruction
throughout the session. Gentlemen, of high
character and at.ainments, and not connec-
ted with the Institution, severely tested the
requirements Of The pupils. and affirm that
they stood the test in a manner that reflects
the highest credit upon themselves and their
corps Of teachers.
In this connection, we again remind our
read ers that the Commencement Address, by
the Rev. DR.. YOUNG, will be delivered, to-
day, at 10 o'clock, A. M, and we bespeak for
him an audience worthy of the man and the
occasion. At night, the graduating exerci-
ses and brilliant. concert will be the closing
scenes of proud day for the GAINESVILLE
Female Academy.
