DR. SHERWOOD'S
Vibrating Magnetic Machines.'
By recent improvements in these Machines,
their Dower is doubled in cases ot the same size,
and the prices reduced to 12 and $14 each; the
$12 sizes beins greatly superior to the $12 sizes
r.ffithfi- machines. Thev now run with more
power and smoothness, and are better adapted
for magnetizing- oatients than any other in use.
Each case is accompanied with a Manuel (11th
edition, p. 400, 32 mo.) in the English or French
language, according to order, which contains
clear and minute directions for the proper use
of the instrument in the various diseases to which
it is applicable, which are found to include many
of the most peculiar and obstinate that are known
to the medical nrofession. The Manuel also con
tains a svnopsis of the different systems of medi
cal practice, Allopathic, Ilomcapathic, and Mag
nopathic, with a full glossary.
Physicians and others are cautioned against
purchasing the imitations of these machines, as
they will be found of comparatively little value.
No premium has ever been obtained over these
magnetic machines at the American or any other
Institute, as is represented by the aianufacturers
of interior machines.
Cr?- As I have become the Agent for the sale of the
above Machines from a conviction of their upefulms in
disease, and not from any desire to speculate ou them; and
am responsible to ti e owner for them, they can only be
obtained by the payment of the cash on the delivery of the
Machine. I have deposited them with Mr Bayne at the
Carolinian Office, who will show them, or deliver them on
liu Ti;iYiTii!it. of th- c:ls1 orice. and on no other terms'.

Compound Chloride of Gold,
FOR SCROFULOUS DISEASES.
These remarkable medical remedies of the late
eminent and well known Dr. Sherwood of New
Yolk, consisting of a preparation of magnetized
CHLORIDE OK GOLD, compounded with vari
ous other materials with great care and by a la
borious process, and of a BITUMINOUS PLAS
TER, have been tested by an extensive practice
of twenty-five years' continuance, and may now
in-dlv be" considered as more successful than any
other known remedy in the treatment of CON
SUMPTION in all its early stages, and of all
Tuberculous or Scrofulous Diseases. For this
class of complaints they are now extensively
adopted by physicians in their own practice in
various parts of the country. They are prepared
bv us under the direction of the Executrix of
the estate of the late Dr. Sherwood, to whom, b,y
his will, his medical recipes are nitrusteu in in?
same manner 111 all respects as iieiuiwir,

Chronic Diseases, a work which was the result
of many years of labor and research, and which
shows in the clearest manner me pniitii'i" r
on which the operation of his remedies is found
ed and their mode of cure. This work will en
able any person to detect the nature and extent
of scrofulous or tuberculous disease in himself or

THE
TO ALL THE SOLDIERS OF
WAR WITH MEXICO.
W e are now engaged upon a work, en
titled, "The 'Real" Heroes of the Mexican
War." It is our earnest purpose to do
justice to every soldier concerned in the
campaigns ot Scott and lay lor. In the
preparation of this work, we. will not
be governed by the display f mere ti
tles or names, but will endeavor to do ex
act justice to the private soldiers, a well
as4to the officers. Will the soldiers of the
War extend their aid to us? Every one
who participated iu th battles of the war
can with but little trouble, send us an ac
count of his experience and adventures
it matters not how brief or how roughly
written. From materials thus gathered,
we will be enabled to write a true history
of the war, for the perusal of the masses ot industry, is the common fences which en
COST OF BUILDING AND REPAIR
ING FENCES IN THE U. S.
The cost of fences is enormous, almost
bevond the power of calculation, and for
ces the enquiry, whether Legislatures
ought not to be called upon 10 compel
every man to keep his stock to himself.
Then no man, who did not choose to do it,
would be forced to enclose hi land against
the ravages of his neighbor's stock.' Mr
Bidille, a few years since, in an address
before the Phadelphia Agricultural Society,
stated that the cost of the fences in Phila
delphia amounted to SI 00, 000, 000, and
their annual expense he estimates at Sl0,
000,000. A distinguished writer on Na
tional Wealth, says ; Strange as it may
seem, the greatest investment in this coun
try, the most costly production ot human
the American neonle. It will be a book
whjvh every soldier (whether irfhcer or
private,) can bequeath an heir-loom to his
family anil to posterity. The Book will
differ in every respect, from all other his
tories. It will picture the deeds of every
man who distinguished himself, and not
confine itself to a mere eulov of those ti
tied persons, whose greatness too often
consists solelv in their rank and official
position. Those gentlemen who comply
with this request, w ill confer a great favor,
by describing in their own way the minu
test details of every incident which came
within their experience and their knowl
edge. Details with regard to scenery, the
nature of the ground on which the various
battles were fought, and the costume of the
parties concerned in the war, will be par
ticularly acceptable.
The press of the country will render a
creat tavor, not only to ourselves, but u
the true history of the war by giving
undertaking, a notice in their columns.

close and divide the fields. No man dreams
that when compared to the outlay of these
unpretending monuments of human ait,
our cities and our towns, with all their
wealth, are left far behind. In many places
the fences have tost more than the fences
and farms are worth. It is this enormous
burden which keeps down the agricultural
interest of this country, causing an untold
expenditure, besides the loss of the land
the fem es occupy. Estimating a chestnut
post-and-rail fence to last 18 years, and
including inside fencing and repairs, the.
annual tax to the farmer holding 150 acres,
will be 130 to 140, and judging from
present appearances, the tax is perpetual,
and there seems but little hope ol escape
from it. Did the intelligent farmer reflect
a moment, and estimate the annual tax
which his fences impose upon him, he would
not rest till the system was abolished, or
else the live hedie took the place of the
wi u .
this j present expensive fence of timber.

Philadelphia, April 30
I went to-day to visit the Girard College,
which is at length completed. It is deci
dedly the finest and most splended build
ing in the United States, and far superior
to the CapitoLat Washington The build
ing itself covers one acre of ground, and
the walls, floors, stairs, ami roof are all of
white nimble, agreeably to the will of the
rounder. It is surrounded on all the tour
sides by most magnificent white marble
columns, of the Corinthian order ; the
diameter of them is seven feet, and they
are fifty-six feet high, exclusive of the
base, (the latter nine feet in diameter.)
The capitals, which are most splendidly
and laborately carved, are thirteen feet
high. The colonade, as you walk on the
platform of it, has a -most imposing and
splendid appearance more so than any
tiling of the kind I have ever seen. The
root is a real curiosity, and, with the ex
ception of the cathedral of Milan, is the
only building I have ever seen or read of
that is exclusively of marble. The slabs
are about tour
feet square, and three inches thick, over
lapping on each other, as they descend to
wards the exterior, about nine inches.
The joints are in a straight line from the
apex to the eaes, and are well joined and
The svstem of compelling every land-
holder to enclose his property is peculiar
to the United States, with only the ex
ception of England, where the fence
nuisance appears again under the form of
the hedge, ami although these hawthorn
hedges, when they are well tended and
not more than half of them are so are
beautiful objects, and answer all the pur
poses of protection against the inroads of
cattle, still the public voice is beginning to
cry out against them, because of the enor
mous amount of land required to support
them. Each hedge is live or six feet w ide
at its base, and taking into account the
amount of land they exhaust on either side,
the whole space cannot be less than 12 or
14 feet wide. When it is recollected that
the divisions and subdivisions of land in
England are very numerous, the amount
of arable land abstracted from the pur
poses of agriculture is very great. It has
been estimated at several million bushels
of grain-

comes upon the centre of these walls, and
makes the whole perfectly solid and im
movable. The main building is used only
as a school and recitation room, a library,
chapel, and refectory. There are four
large white marble buildings, two on either
side of the building, and at a suitable dis
tance, which are appropriated as dormito
ries fur the orphans, residences of the presi
dent, prefessors, &.c. The grounds attach
ed comprise forty-five acres, and the whole
space is enclosed with a substantial stone
wall full sixteen feet high. The number
of orphans at present is upwards of two
hundred. There has been a great and no
doubt an unnecessary expenditure ol money
on this building; but, as it is now finished,
we hope the benevolent' intentions of its
founder will be realized.
In one of the vestibules below is a lull
length statue in marble of Mr Girard, and
it iifnot only an admirable likeness of him,
but an excellent general resemblance, for
he is carved in "'his very habit as he lived,"
of his recently worn suits, including a pair
of old-fasmned round-toed boots, having
been sent out to Italy, Before the staute
was executed, for the information and
government of the artist.
