ing His health being too delicate to bear much
Of the tatigues and exposures consequent on gen
eral practice, he has adopted a speciality in the
profession.
Soon after commencing practice, some twenty
years since, he attracted by the almost uni
versatility of female complaints, bo til in the mar
ried and single state. Partly from natural incli-
nation and in order to obtain in practice,
these complaints were made the subject of incess
an study. These alterations, diSplacements and
deranged functions of the organs peculiar to the
female are owing to that refined sense of delicacy
on the part of The female, who, ignorant OF the
conseq prefers 70 suffer in silence rather
than expose her situation. Seldom cured by the
general practitioner, who is prevented by this
delcacy from acquiring by experience that tact
and skill necessary to discriminate the exact
change present, aud contents himself with pre-
the cause, simply for attendant nervous disorders.
founding his prescriptions on Plethoric Anaemon-
c state Of the general system and the result is no
benefit, the number of the long suffering fe-
males bears ample testimony. Believing that he
has, from long and special attention paid to them,
acquired that skill in discriminating and expert
ence in treating he soicits the suffering TO give
him a call. No charges for consultation or exam

PERSONAL GOSSIP ABOUT GREELEY.-The
Now York correspondent Of tho Mobile Regis
ter, in noticing the conclusion OF Horace Gree
ley's autobiographical sketches in the Ledger,
entitled "Recollections of Busy Life, says:
His life has been o busy one. doubt il
there is another newspaper man IN the United
States who gets through as much work In O
year as Mr.. Greeley. He hardly has an idle
hour he twelvemonth round. From Monday to
Saturday he is writing leaders for the Tribune,
attending meetings, making speeches, deliver
ing lectures, answering correspondents, writ
ing sketches and essays-doing, in fact, the
work of three or four men, instead OF one.
Saturday morning he runs up to his farm at
Chapp1gna, and goes to work In another way.
You may find him in the fields or the woods,
taking exercise with hoe or axe, that would
use up an an ordinary city man in
an hour. This is his recreation. He en-.
ioys it great deal better than throwing
off copy, and he intends to retire to it
passed his tifty-seventh year, and has hard
iy ever been sick. He seys he has no time
to be sick. His mode Of life is conducive
to health h-primitive in its simplicity. Com
fort and cleanliness are al he asks, and he
does not get much OF the first. But he must
have the second, and he does have it.. He has
had trials and sorrows like all men. The great
est came from tne loss OF MS SOUS. CccentIic
himself, his wife also has peculiar notions.
She belongs to the Sorosis, and is firm be-
lever in woman suffrage. In religion, Horace
1s Universalist, and therefore no bi2ot. He
has only two childron living-girls. His affec-
ton lcr them is of the strongest. They are
pupils in the Convent Of the Sacred Heart, the
best educational institution for girls in New
York, and I am informed that both were re-
Gently baptized into the Catholic Church. One
of his sisters has been Catholic tor many
years, and some of his friends think he will be
Catholic himself some day. This, however, is
his own business.
