New OSlsans Medical and Surgical
Journal.

The admirable advantages offered by our
city for medical instruction and clinical OBJ
servation, renders it also suitable location
for magazine devoted TO the general med
zeal and pharmaceutical departments of the
medical profession. Accordingly We are
not surprised 20 see the Medical you>na!
filled with original. well written and in
structve contributions TO curative science
Turning its pages with that general interest
which non professional sciolist is expected
to manifest in every subject, We find some
communications from our own physicians,
upon questions Of general and epecitc
interest. Perhaps from having sympa.
thized with some little sufferer from that
most painful affection, the hip joint disease,
we pause to read the result of observations
in the New York hospitals, by DR.. Former
to, one of our physicians of largest practice
and most scientific reputation among US. We
know nothing more sad than the report OF q
patient and even cheerful boy condemned
to restrict the activity of youth to the pre-.
carious use of crutches. and looking for
ward to little more than the same agency
during his whole life. So when we learn
that this terrible affection has been relieved
by an American invention which restores
the action of the joint by relieving the
articulation from the pain Of friction. and
even from the weight OF the body--when
We see that necrosis and even consolidation
Of the muscle and tissues are no: hopeless,
but that exsection OF the hip Joint has been
effected with a comparative degree of
safety. We are gratitei 70 hope that this
calamity may be by surgical service de.
prived of much Of its deplorable conse.
quences. We must refer the reader to the
valuable journal itself for a full narration
of these and other Important improvements
in the great science Of relief TO pain. and
commend the excellent magazine as worthy
the patronage Of our medical professions

PRoF. FOWLER s GREATEST Work.
The National Publishing Company, of
Philadelphia, have issued a very import
ant and valuable work, by Prot. o. s.
Fowler, on Manhood, Womanhood and
their Mutual Interrelations Love, its
Laws, Power, etc. It is mastely ex-
position of the laws which control the
relations of the sexes, and their duties
toward each other, and it is not assert
ing too much to pronounce it the most
valuable and timely publication of the
age.
"Know thyselfW was the profound
injun ction of the ancient sage, and it is
the neglect TO conpl ly with with this pre-
cept which causes nearly all the misery
and sickness of the world. 1t is aston
ishiug to find how utterly ignorant men
and women, otherwise accomplished and
intelligent, are concerning themselves.
Husbands and wives constantly feel the
need of more light on the subject of
their relations to each other, especially
concerning the great duty for which
marriage was iustituted-the begetting
and rearing Of family
1t is for the purpose Of diffusing this
knowledge that Prof. Fowler has given
" the uu,ld ,i,io mvik "Cootual Co;
ence," which is simply an explanation Of
the laws which govern the sexes in their
relations to each other. He points out
the duties of husbands and wives and
discloses facts OF which no true man or
woman ought to be ignorant. H. lets
US into the secret of preserving female
health aud beauty far into old age, and
shows how mothers can avoid much of
the suffering OF bringing children into
the world-a subject in which every
woman is interested, and how "iemale
complaints" may be avoided with ease
and certainty.
The book is real blessing to the
public, and will be regarded as such by
all who read it, The low price al
which it is issued brings it within the
reach OF all, and every person whe
wants 20 arrive at proper understand
ing of the true relations OF the sexes
should procure copy. 1t is sold by
subscription only, aud agents are wanted
in every county.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1873-05-08

ATTEMPTED RoBBERY.-Early Fri
day morning an attempt was made to rob
Mr.Amos Heath of about thirteen hun
dred dollars he had in his possession at
Spring Greek. 1t appears that Mr..
Heath had been settling up an Estate
there, aud received about the above
amount of money. He generally, when
In that section stays at house opposite
the one he stayed at last night, but by
invitation and request of his neice, Mrs.
Langley, he staid there that night. He
slept in room adjoining one where his
ueice and another lady were; and to-
wards morning, before daylight, he hap.
pened to wake and turn in the bed, when
he saw man start from his door, and
heard him jump from the top of the
stairs down.
On getting up it was found that the
theft or thieves had broken the window
blinds with the apparent purpose of
raising a window, but being unable to
do SO, they had cut through panel of
the door, withdrawn the bolt and thus
got in. Mr. Heath's overcoat was down
stairs, and had been rifed of all the pa
pers; but the money which was in his
pants pocket was luckily saved by Mr.
Heath accidentlly awakening, as the
pants were almost within reach of the
thief when discovered.
1t appears that the thief must have
been we'll acquainted with the locality,
and where Mr.. Heath was to sleep, for
no other doors had been opened in the
night.-[Corry Telegraph, lst inst.

Still ANOTHER FIaE.-The oil
town of st. Petersburgh, Clarion, Co. ,
seems to have become caught in the
meshes of the fire fend. 1t was only
few days ago that the place was
nearly destroyed, and now comes the
report of another Ga third) disaster.
On Wednesday morning of last week
fire originated in st. James House
owned by McWiliam, on Main street,
which, spl eading each way, consumed
a large amount of property. McWil
Ian alleges that, as he was removing a
kerosene Lamp from the table, it un-
accountably exploded and set fire to the
carpet and furniture. When some
parties arrived at the scene of the disas
ter they reported finding the host Of the
st. James lying upon the sidewalk, suf-
fering evidently from the effects of
