AS soon as an article purporting to be of
utility has been tested, and its merits en-
dorsed by public opinion, unprincipled
parties endeavor to replenish their depleted
purses by counterfeiting, and substituting a
spurious for genuine article. Some time
since, mercury. in the disguise of pills, pow
ders, &c, was given for all diseases of the
stomach and liver, while quinine was freely
administered for the chills. At length Hos
letters Stomach Bitters made its advent,
and an entire new system of healing was
valuable preparation were at once acknowl-
edged, and mineral poisons suffered to sink
into that obscurity to which an enlightened
age has consigned them. There have been
many spurious bitters palmed upon the
community, which, after trial, have been
found perfectly worthless, while Hostel
ter's has proved a blessing to thousands, who
owe to it their restoration to health.
For many years we have watched the
steady progress of Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers in public estimation, and its benificent
effects as cure for all complaints arising
from the stomach of a morbid nature, and
we are free to say that it can be relied upon
as a certain relief and remedy. Its proprie-
tors have made the above preparation, after
years of careful study and sitting, and are
now reaping the reward claimed by this
valuable specific, and which they so richly
merit. 1t is the only preparation of the
kind that is reliable in all cases, and it
therefore demands the attention of the af-
fiicted.

Almost every man, says the Phrenological
Journal. of very decided character has an
inclination for some particular pursuit in
which he is anxious to achieve success, aud
so marked is this generally, that neither he
nor his friends will have any difficulty in
perceiying it. Let him follow that, If it be
possible, for in that line he is most certain
TO gain distinction. Many men, however,
are so cosmopolitan in their tastes and YER
satile in their capacities, that it matters lit
tie to them in what they engage. Their
pride leads them to strive for success in
whatever they may undertake, and besides,
success brings wealth; hence there is no
lack of stimulus to exeTtion. Many men.
too, are unable, from the force of surround
ing circumstances, to follow the calling of
their choice, and enter upon that which of
1ers TO them the great peeuniary induce
ments. They have no special desire to
achieve reputation in it and prosecute it for
the sake Of its pecuniary reward hence they
become mere money gettegS.
The cases in which men have met with
very decided success In any occupation or
profession have almost always been those
for which they have shown great predilect-
ION and they have engaged in it frequently
under the most Encouraging circumstances,

men would have abandoned it In despair.

education in Mississippi, which L think IS
due to both, and beg the use of your Ma
sonic column while / cali the attention OF
our brotherhood and the public, to the
" Sommerville Institute" conducted by
Thomas S. Gathright, a. NJ
/ regard this school the best IN the state at
this time, so far as | have means OF Judg-
ing. Bro. Gathright has been engaged in
this laborious work about twenty years in
Mississippi. He has won his way to emin-
ence as an instructor and governor of
youth, by his known requirements In liter
AZURE and science,-oy his untiring energy
his unfagging zeal-his aptness to teach,
and his acknowledged power to rule and
govern successfully by moral suasion
He combines firmness with suayity of
manner, and possesses the art of endeaTlng
his pupils to him, while he mainstains his
discipline intact.
This institution is located near the Mo-
bile and Ohio r. R.,-is not contiguous to
any town or village, and consequently the
students are not exposed to temptation to
embrace the habits of dissipation, which are
so common in this day of moral obliquity.
We are of opinion that when young man
acquires the learning that can be impaired
at Summerville Institute, he is qualified to
enter on the duties of life.
Besides, Prof Gathright has been unfor-
tunate. His twenty years labor in Missis-
ssppi has been swept away by misfortune.
Our fraternity can restore him to hi
your boys to Gathright. He is a true man
a safe man, will watch over the moral anC
intellectual training of your sons with al
much fidelity as any man.
This should not be confined to the Ma
sons, but any citizen who will send his sol
to that school will have no cause to regret it

of the first rules laid down by a teacher to
his pupils should be not to keep their eyes
fixed upon their books. Apart from the
probable injury to the eye itselfby too close

as well committed to memory when the
eyes are fixed upon the page, as if thew
