WHEN gentleman asked a celebrated divine
the other day how long he had been in pr. par
ing certain sermon in which he had display
ed even more thar his great average ability
the reply was, "a lifetime, sir!" SO if any
one were TO ask Hembold, the celebrated New
York druggist how long he had been in build
ing up and perfecting that admirable system
OF advertising which has made him, beyond
question, the peer of the merchant princes, he
might, with propriety, reply by pointing TO the
long years that have elapsed since, as begin
ner in life, he first invested his gains in the
columns of the newspaper press, with a con-
fdence that, like bread cast upon the waters
the returns would be both ample and sure
And, while yet a young man, Hembold finds
himself a millionaire, with business upon
his hands which, despite all the contingencies
Of trade, is constantly increasing. How much
OF this success is due to the liberal and ex-
tended system of advertising, of which this
gentleman is the most prominent representa-
tive, is not difficult to ascertain, and is the
best argument in vindication of system
which, it is due to say is every day gaining
ground among the live and enterprising bust
ness men of the country.
IIelmbold's drug store, No. 594 Broadway
New ork city, is in all respects model es-
tablishment, and is pronounced by all who
have visited it the finest on the continent
Among the specialities which Hembold has
placed prominently before the public are his
now famous Fluid Extracts-Buchu and Sar-
saparilla. These fluid extracts have been en-
dorsed by the medical faculty, and are quite
generally used by physicians in their private
practice. They are, therefore, GENUINE pre-
parations, and as such are entitled to public
confidence. Buchu has long been pronounced
by physicians one of the best diuretics known
to science, and as compounded in Hembold's
Extract is doubtless the best specific for those
affections for which it is recommended

The arrangements are nearly perfected for
the fifth annual State convention of the Y.
M. c. A, to be held in this city, on Thursday
and Friday, Oct. 9th and 18th. A cordial
invitation has been extended by the Assoca-
ton in this city, the members of which,
though their committee of arrangements, are
providing entertainment for large number.
Numerous conventions and other gatherings
of the people have been held here the past
season, but we can assure our friends from
abroad that the latch strings are still hanging
out, and there is yet plenty to eat and good
lodgings. Large delegations are expected
from all the cities, and as the call includes
the pastors and members of the churches, a
full attendance is anticipated.
All who feel interested in the formation Of
Associations in their locality, or who desire
to meet in convention with the young men of
the Associations, and especially all pastors of
churches throughout our State, are cordially
and earnestly invited to meet and consult to-
gether in regard to what the work Young Mems
Christian Associations is in our State.
In order that full discussion may be had,
the following subjects with others will be con-
sidered:
What is a Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton, and what is it intended to accomplish?
The religious work of the Association. To
what extent may it be carried?
The study of Gods word. What place
should it have in our Associations?
Cottage and neighborhood Prayer meetings.
Social Gatherings.
Methods of raising funds.
Our duty as Associated Christian Young
Men to the young men of the State.
What attitude should our Associations take
with reference to the moral reforms of the
present time?
The meeting for organization will be held
in the Baptist church at II o'clock A. NJ, to
be preceded by prayer-meeting at 10 o'clock.
Reports are expected from all Associations
in existence in the State.
A question-drawer for the reception of
questions, to be answered in remarks of two
minutes each, will prove an interesting fea-
ture in the convention.

Our State Reform School.
To the Mdiciol officers Of Tie State
of IO,rO,

To the Juziciol officers Of Tie State
Of Ioro:
We, the Trustees of the State
Reform School, in annual session
assembled, find upon examination,
that there have been admitted into
the school since it's opening, one
hundred and one juveniles. OF
these, about twenty have been dis
charged, having given evidence OF
proper reformation and having per
sonal knowledge Of many of those
thus discharged we are happy to
say they are, by their honorable
course and manly conduct, reflect
ing credit on our institution, and
demonstrating the wisdom of its
founders. But we find that the num-
Der now in the institution, which is
scventy-two, fills our building to its
utmost capicity. We had earnestly
hoped that the Legislature at its last
session would make an appropria-
ton sufficient to have enabled us tc
have enlarged our institution to meet
the increased demand; but in this
we were sorely disappointed. The
appropriations made being barely
sufficient, by the most rigid economy
to feed, clothe and educate those
that are already here.
Beside, the State has made no pro
vision for employment Of the in,
mates by way Of shops, tools, DC.
and thus one of the main objects OF
the institution is defeated. Should
any more persons be sent to the
school it would be converted into
little more than prison. In fact
we deem it utterly impossible to ac
cOmmodate them.
We are therefore compelled &
give notice, that owing to the facts
above stated, we cannot receive an,
more persons until further provis
ions can be made for their accom-
mediation. OF which you will b'
duly notified hereafter.

Of the most shameless journalistic
protligacy and blackguardism, has
lost nearly all his ill-gottcn gains
in playing the same disgraceful role

Of the latter venture was not because
obscnity, scurrility and general de

that Democratic paradise Of repeat
ers, but because the article furnished
by Pomeroy was not rare enough
to be largel y appreciated.
