J SPECIAL NOTICES.


BowAYToN Conn, Feb. 2 1872
DR. O. PHELPs BRowN, No. 81 Grand ST.. Jersey CITY
NJ
Dear sir:-My brother who Is now in his 18th
year, has been subject to Epilepsy or fits from child
hood. The spasms wouid invariably occur during
the night, and our local physicians here could do
nothing to help him save prescribing Bromide or
potassium which would afford only temporary re
lief. He was gradually but surely becoming insane,
and In this condition we procured your restorative
stlmnlant, herbal ointment and pills, and used as
directed, and but short time elapsed before the
spasms entirely ceased, his intellect grew brighter
and in short was entirely restored to perfect health
fon may use this testimonial as you may deem prop
er, as what have said are facts ---
Respectfully yours,
febiSdw1y CHARLES RAYMOND.

CLOSE OF THE NORMAL.

The fall term of the State Normal
School closed yesterday. Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Thursday, were
spent in the examinations. There
were few spectators present. The
examinations exhibited a good de.
gree of progress on the part of the
students. We had only time TO at
tend q couple OF hours, and the ex-
aminations so far as We heard them
were more than usually clear and
satisfactory. We may safely say
the School was never in better con-
dition than during the last term.
Both teachers and scholars have
worked hard, and accomplished
much good work.
The winter term will open on the
I'd day of January, probably in the
new building, and with the increased
facilities which will be furnished,
all will go to work with renewed
vigor, and the work of next year
will be better done than that of any
former one.
