MEDICAL ADVICE.-Dr. Vim. X. DOherty's
Medcaland SurgicalInsttutei is becoming asine
qua non to the welfare of our State and health
of our citizens; andhis rapidly spreading reputa-
ton, although it may excite surprise, is but the
signal of skill, and follows as the natural effect
of such cause. We are personally acquainted
with gentlemen who had suffered for years under
chronic disease, and who had taken advantage Of
every available means that promised relief, but
without success, until they called upon DR.. Do
herty who in an incredibly short space of time,
has given them entire relief. 1t is gratifying to
announce this fact, because the Doctor is a gen.
tlcman who seeks, not by defamation Of others.
TO establish his reputation, or to rear the super
structure OF his own upon the ruin Of another's
fame. The Doctor conducts his Institute in snch
manner that must be gratifying to all his pa
TENTS. He examines, advises and recommends
without charge, and the patient after hearing
his terms for treatment, can accept or REJECT at
pleasure. In no case does the Doctor make q
charge unless he effects cure. This, he is able
to do, because he feels theconfdence which long
experience has given, and no doubt the consola.
ton which appertains to that confidence. Per
sons anlcted with either acute or chronic disease
would do we'll to consult the Doctor; lat q lcvents
Il can do no harm, as for consultation he asks no
fee; nor does be insist ON obedience TO his advice
unless the patient places himself under his care.

a MELPMnATE.
Cornelius Vanderbilt and His wife.
The New York Sun saws:

The New York Sun says:
Somewhere about sixty years ago Cor.
nelius Vanderbilt commenced life by run.
ming "periauger" between Staten Island
and New York. During the day he piled
his vocation, and whenever bis duties per.
mitted visited his cousin, MISS Sophia
johnson, then young and comedy girl Of
sixteen, who also lived on the island.
Perhaps it was the outburst of his first
love that made the young sailor SO ambiti,
tioue, and inspired him with the enterprise
he has always exhibited. Certain it is,
however, that the cousins married, and old
folks who knew them then speak with
delight of the handsome pair, for they were
admitted to be the comeliest couple Staten
Island ever produced.
1t is unnecessary to trace the Commodore
from the time he was ferryman until he
was promoted, or, more properly, promoted
himself to the responsible position of cap
tain of steamboat which piled between
this port and New Brunswick, New Jersey.
AT the latter place, however, he was pro-
prietor of hotel, at which passengers from
New York to Philadelphia used to take
meals, and occasionally nights rest. This
was kind of halfway house, His wife
superintended the hotel while he was en-
gagged in his Aquatic vocation. One evening
he arrived from New York, and while sit
ting at his supper he said to his wife
"Sophie, / wish had $4,000 to buy shares
in the steamboat line think it would be
good investment"
g Do you think so, Cornell p responded
his thoughtful partner.
" / do, said he. ....s
She said nothing more, but next day
consulted Mr.. Gibbons, and he advised the
investment. Next evening at supper she
aecosted her husband TINS
Cornell, I've spoken to Mr.. Gibbons
about buying shares, and, as he approves
of your idea, there's the $4,000 (; buy the
shares tomorrow"
AS she spoke she took the amount from
one of those old-fashioned pockets that used
to be worn under the dress, and handed
it TO her astonished husband. She had
saved the money unbeknown to him,
and it was probably the same money that
fOated the Commodore into fame and for
tune. The incident shows what the woman
was.
