V Cowperthwait, &. Co., ol Philadelphia, and sold by
booksellers generally, Mitchell's Series of School Geog
raphies. Mitchell's Primary- Geography, third revi.-ed
edition, illustrated by more than 100 beautiful engravings
and 11 coloured inajis. The present edition of this popu
lar work is printed from new plates, the fourth stereotyp
ed fi - the book since its trrst appearance twelve years ago,
within which period more than a million copies have
been circulated.
Encouraged by the extensive patronage bestowed on
this work, the publishers have taken advantage of the
present revision, much to improve it in every respect
Such alterations in the text as recent geographical dis
coveries and changes rendered necessary, have been made.
The maps have been greatly improved and several new
and beautiful cuts, designed by Billings, and executed in
the finest style of the engraver's art, have been added.
Mitchell's 1 ntermeliaie Geography, revised edition, in
quarto form, containing maps and reading matter in the
same book, illustrated by more than 40 colored maps, and
150 engravings. This work occupies a medium space be
tween the author's Primary Geography, and the well
known School Geography nnd Atlas, of which last book
it contains about two-thirds of the amount of matter.
For convenience of use, and leliable maps and mat
ter, ihis book has no superior.
Miiclieil's Schnol Geography and Atlas, fourth revised
edition. The present tcvision has been altogether more
thorough and complete than any heretofore attempted.
The book has been entirely re-written, and fully brought
up to the present time. Advantage has been taken of
many suggestions kindly ofieredby distinguished practical
teachers, to i m prov; :he work in its geneml plan and ar
ransemcnt ; and it is believed that it will hear the closest
criticism, both with reference to its geographical accura
cy, and its-adaptation for use as a school manual.
The At la- accompanying the new edition contains
thirty-two beautiful Maps handsomely colored, and finely
executed in the best style of the engraver's art, fully rep
resenting a.'l the recent sieocraphieal discoveries, w ltn
the United States' M:ips especially, ?reat pains have
been taken to exhibit correctly the numerous railroads
of the country, new county lines, and tire true position ol
manv new and important towns, not generally represent-

New and'excellent Maps of Wisconsin, Michiffan, and
Texas, have been introduced. Others, showinff the va
rious routes to the Pacific, by the Isthmuses, of Panama,
Tehuantepcc, and Niearasua, are now added, together
with a new map of tho Sandwich Islands.
The information obtained with reference to the new
States ami Te rritories west of the Mississippi, the discove
ries of Lt De Haven, in his search for Sir John Frank
lin, and those ol late travelers in Central and Southern Af
rica, as also in Australia, have been incorporated in the
work. In short, it is believed that no discovery or :ha:isze
of any importance for the last ten years is left unnoticed in
this edition.
The Atlas also contains nine quarto pases of statistical
matter, arranged in tables, and obtained from the most
authentic sources. These tables exhibit the height of the
principal mountains nnd volcanoes, the length of rivers, the
area of the principal islands and lakes, the extent and pop
ulation of the diliereiit countries, and the population of the
principal cities upon the globe; all compiled from the
latest and most reliable authorities. In the. department ol
United States' statistics, th: tables are very complete, and
exhibit iii'.iy t-it-civil, industrial and political condition ot
the country. as shown by the census of 1850. In addition
to these tables, is one showing the railroads and canals ol

FEMALE SEMINARY'.
itL The
ubscriber proposes to open, on the second
Monday in January next, in the City of Raleigh,- a High
School for young ladies, under the above title.
For this purpose, he has purchased the property form
ed owned, and employed for school purposes, t.y the late
Rev. J. J. F'inch. It is situated on Halifax street, a few
hundred yards north of the Capitol, in a pleasant and
desirable part of the city ; sufficiently near, to enjoy all the
advantages of the city, and sufficiently retired to be free
from most of its annoyance.
He has purchased also an unimproved lot, in ihe same
vicinity, -one of tho most eligible and beautiful sites in
the city, upon which he intends, as soon as circumstances
will admit, to erect largo and commodious buildings,
with special reference to school purposes. Many circum
stances conspire lo render Raleigh a most desirable
location for a female school. lis proverbial healthfulness ;
the objects of interest, which attach to it, as the capitol
of the State ; its accessibility by means of rail roads ; the
high character of the institutions it already contains; and
its growing importance, giving promise of permanent pros
perity, are all circumstances wnich cannot be overlooked
by parents. desiring to give their daughters a polite and an
accomplished education. The sub-criher will be assisted
in the duties ot the school by rs. McDowell and other

as moderate, it is believed, as the expensiveness of livintr
and. the facilities, which will be provided, will justify!
But experience has taught that Parents, who properly ap
preciate the education' of their children, are more solicii
ous about the character of the instruction imparted, than
about the price paid fur it.
Hence the prime object will not be to make the school
as eheap as possible, but to render the instruction as effici
ent ns possible.
The subscriber flatters himself that the experience he
has had in teaching young ladies and the satisfaction he
has been enabled to give, w:ll be a sufficient guarantee, to
all who may be disponed to pationize his school, that
their daughters will be properly cared for, and faithfully
instructed. And as he has undertaken this enterprise at the
urgent solicitation of numerous friends, and under the im
pression that important interests aiay be subservt-d there
by, he trusts that he shall not lack that generous sympathy
and liberal support which have been accorded to him
elsewhere.

OChristison, M. D. v. p. r. s f, President of the Royal
College of Phvsiciansof Edinburgh, Professor of Materia
Medica in the University of Edinburgh, and Ordinary
Physician to the Queen for Scotland, on the "AC
TIONS and USES of BEBERIN A." From the Sup-
B lenient to the Second Editionof lr. CHR1ST1SON S
ISPENSATORV. Edinburgh, April, 184$.
"BEBERIN A is essentially that ofaTonicand Anti
Periodic, and the forms of Disease to which it is applicable
m e the same in kind as those for which Quina is employ
ed. It increases the appetite, improves the tone of the
constitution generally, and raises the pulse a little- but
has not the same tendeucv as Quiua to produce ringing
in the ears, headache, Vertigo, and other symptoms
of affection of the Nervous System. It was first used by
Dr. Rodie in ihe intermitients'of Guiana; and the subse
buent tests of Dr. Watt, in Demerara, and by Army
Surgeons, in the East Indies, leave no doubt that it
possesses decided fibrifuge qualities. In many forms of
disease in this country its efficacy is undoubted, periodic
headache and other periodic Neuralgias readily yield to
it. It appears to be specially applicable to persons of
Strumous or Phthisical habit, and has been found useful
in the latter stages of Phthisis to counteract general
debility and want of appetite, and check nocturnal pers
piration. By many Oculists it has been found an effectual
subslitute for Quina in Strumous Optbalmia. In Atonic
Dyspepsia aud states of debility generally, it has come
into common use, and it has found especial favour with
many Accoucheurs iu cases of pregnancy, requiring tonic
treatment ; for all these purposes it has come into general
employment in this Citv and other places in Britian.
The dose of Sulphate of Bebeerine is from one to three
grains repeatedly as a tonic, and from live grains to a
scruple as a fibrifuge. It may be given in pill with
conserve of roses, or in solution. When spread upon
the surface of water it dissolves almost immediately. '

Dr. Nicholsonj Deputy In spector of Hospitals, Madras;
Dr. Dempster, H M. 21st Fusiliers ; Messrs. Falconer,
Anderso , Godfrey, and Doorward, of ihe East India
Co npany's Service, have employed it with dei ided
success, "where Quina, Arsenic, and other Medicines had
failed, or required to be disi outinued.
Dr. Macfarlane gives his opinion of Bebeerine as
-Hows:
" Glasgow, liith June, 147.
" Ouring the last two years 1 have used the Sul date
of Bebeerine extensively in practice. and -villi decidedly
liencfical effects, as a general tonic and as an am i -periodic
and ami- euralgic remedy. Besides being much cheaper
than the Sulphate of Quina, it is not so liable to excite
the circulation or nervous system; it can. therefore, be
given in larger doses, and has frequently succeeded in my
hands when other medicines have either failed or required
to be discontinued.
" JOHN MACFARLANE, M D."
The following is from Dr. James A. Lawric : " I inve
used the Sulphate ol Bebeerine extensively in ail cases

by Messrs. Inneraritv and Co., and have no hesitation
in stating th.it it is tlie best which I have seen in the
market. It is quite soluble in hot or cold water, and is
therefore we'll adapted for prescriptions ; affording with
water an almost amber-coloured solution. I consider
this medicine, as maiiiifactuivd by Messrs. Iunerarity

Professor Simpson, of Edinburgh, Discoverer of Chloro

Headache rte vol. xv. Transactions Ruval Society, Ed
inburgh- Edinburgh Monthly Medical Journal,
March, 1-45. Having made "pretty extensive trial of"
Bebeerine in Edinburgh, makes the following ob
servations in a letter to Dr. Maclagan, in January,
1-45:
" Vou. know that Piorrv and others have somewhat
frighteuJd us accouchers from employing Quinine dur
ing pregnancy : and alleging, as they do, that serious
consequences may ensue from the use of it. Nor is
Arsenic a medicine which one would choose to exhibit to
a pregnant female. Though thus deprived of the advan
tages to be derived from the use ot these two potent
remedies in Periodic Neuralgias, latterly I have used
the Sulphate of Bebeerine in instances of this kind, and,
as it has appeared both to me and my patients, with th
most perfect success. I prescribed it about a couple of
months ago to a lady who had oue of the most severe
attacks of forehead and face Neuralgia that I remember
to have seeu. lt came on towards noon, and kept her
in blindness and agony for some time. The ordinary
medical attendant on the family had leeched her, etc",
without relief. I advised the Bebeerine to be given in two
grain pills repeatedly during the. interval between the
paroxysms. As the medicine seemed to have no effect,
I gradually increased it, till on the third dav she took a
bout half a drachm of the Sulphate during "the- fourteen
or sixteen hours' intermission. To tell 3'ou the truth,
I was beginning to despair of seeing ihe sufferings of
my patient in any way relieved by it, and would have
chauged it for some other remedy next day, but such
was not required; as, after the large dose i" mentioned,
the usual tit was greatly less in severity, and in a day
or two entirely disappeared. Of her-own accord, im
patient fell back upon the Be bcerine pills some time
afterwards, when the Nenr.ilgia was again threatened
and it again speedily disappeared.
"Last year Isaw a similar case of periodic Tic in the face
of a lady far advanced in pregnancy. I: yielded rapidlv
when the patient was using the Sulphate" of Bebeerine
alone. I havea lady at present under my care who h;is
been suffering from distressing pains" in the face,
shoulder, and other parts of the body. Before I saw her
she had been put on the use of Guiacum, Colcbicnm,
etc., under the supposition that the pains were rheum
atic. They occur with a kind of irregular periodicity. The
patient at the same time suffers from monorrhagia.
Quinine, Arsenic, etc., have failed to relieve her. Latterly
I placed her upon the use of the Sulphate of Bebeerine,
and at my last visit she stoutly declared that she had
derived far morej benefit from 'this medicine than from
any others I had previously prescribed for her.
" I have a patient from India, where she had suffered
from Ague, and whose stomach seems always to rebel
against Quinine. Since coming to Edinburgh she has
had repeatedly a recurrence of Aguish symptoms, and
has taken Bebeerine for them without feeling those symp
toms of gastric irritation and headache which Quinine
seems to inflict upon her.
" In other cases where I have employed the Bebeerine
either as antiperiodic or as a tonic, "it has caused far
less of those irritatingand stimulant effects which we
see produced by the use crQuiuine."
Testimonials from North-Carolina Physicians are in the
agenjs hands, certifying to the virtue and success of
Bebeerine in Neuralgia and other diseases.
