"R. L. Delisser, Esq. Dear Sir: I have attentively
examined specimen pnges of "Delisser's Interest and
Average tables." The arrangement of these Tables is new
and lor simplicity and neatness they reflect much credit
upon their author. What most highly recommends these

in f-.r less time than by any othermethod with which lam

with accountants."

I The Hvi of the Bee Hunter. A Repository of
fcketches, including t.culiar American Character and
Scenery and Rural Sports. By T. B. Thorpe, of Louisi
ana, author of "Tom Owen," "The Bee Hunter," "Mys
teries of the Backwoods," &c. One neat vol., l'2mo., with
illustrations.
The reading public, especially of the West and South,
have become familiar with the writings of the author of
this very pleasant volume, liis characteristics are great
clearness and simplicity of style, close observation of na
ture and character, and a certain dry humor f descrip
tion, which is especial y captivating. His sketch of "Tom
Owen, the Bee Hunter," is an excellent illustration of his
felicity in this regard ; and his picture of ' Wild Turkey
Shooting," is another "case in point." The fact is the
writer is an artist, and that in writing, as in painting, a
picture is always before him.

METROPOLITAN FEMALE SMINARY.
The subscriber 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, ny the late
Rev. J.J. Finch. 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 the same
vicinity, one ot the most eligible and beautilul sites in
the city, upon which he intends, as soon as circumstances
will admit, to erect large and commodious buildings
with special reference to school purposes. Many circum
stances conspire to render Raleigh a most desirable
location for a female school. lis proverbial healthfulness ;
the objects of interest, which attach to it, as the cnpitol
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-
Ecriiy, are all cireums-tnnces which cannot be overlooked
y parents, desiring to give their daughters a polite and an
accomplished education. The subscriber will be assisted
in the duties of the school by Mrs. McDowell and other
competent and experienced instructors; and all the facili
ties necessary to a first class school, will be promptly provi
ded. The course of instruction will be thorough ; embracing
all the branches usually taught in High Schools or Col
leges, and diplomas will be granted to those who com
plete the cour.-e. Certificates of graduation will also be
given in Music and oiher Ornamental Blanches, to those
who attain the requisite protii iency.
The sessions ;md vacntions will be arranged to corres
pond as nearly as practicable with those of Wake
Forest College, in order that parents patronizing both
Institutions, may have the advantage of sending their sons
and daughters' together.

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 mcire solicit
ous about the character of the instruction imparted, than
about the price paid for it.
Hence the prime object will not be to make the school
as cheap as possible, but to render the instruction as effici
ent as possible
The subscriber flatter? himself that the experience he
has had in teaching young ladies and the satisfaction he
has been enabled to give, w II be a sufficient guarantee, to
nil who may be disponed to patiouize 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

THEIR POWER OVER THE ABOVE DISEASES
is not excelled, if equalled, by any other preparation
in the United States, as the cures attest, in many cases
after skilful physicians bad tailed.
These Bitters are worthy the attention of Invalids.
Possessing great virtues in the rectification of the liver
and lesser glands, exercising the most searching power
in weakness, and affections of the digestive organs, they
are withal safe, certain and pleasant.

inges ui ue uerneu irom uie use ol these two potent
remedies in Periodic Neuralgias, latterly I lave u-ed
the Sulphate of Bebeerine in instances of 'ihis kind and
as it has appeared both to me and my patient! v'ith th
most perfect success. I prescribed it about d 'romdc of
months ago to a lady who had one of the mst seme
attacks of forehead and face Neuralgia that 1 Kinen.l . r
to have seen. It came on towards noon, and! kept her
in blindness and agony for some time. The I oi dn.aiv
medical at tendant on the family had leeched !h, r, ci-,
without relief. I advised the Bebeerine lo be gi,Kn in io
gram pills repeatedly during the interval between "the
paroxysms. As the medicine seemed to have! no ellect,
I gradually increased it, till on the (bird day sic took a
bout half a drachm of the Sulphate during thel fourteen
or sixteen hours intermission. To tell you he truth,
1 was beginning to despair- of seeing' the sufferings of
my patient in any way .-relievedSbv it, a..i would have
changed it for some other remedy next day (but suth
was not required; as, after the large dose 1" mentioned,
the usual tit was greatly less in severity, ui diin a day
or two entirely disappeared. Of her own accord m"v
patient fell back upon lhe Be beerine pills stme 'tin'e
afterwards, when the Neuralgia was, again Unreal cued
and it ogam speedily disappeared. 1
" Last year I saw a similarcase of periodic Tic in the face
of a lady far advanced in pregnancy. It yieldtd rapidly
when the patient was using the Sulphate of iBebetrine
alone. I fiayea lady at present under my care who has
been suffering from distressing pains in I the face,
shoulder, and other parts of the body. Beforeil saw her
she had been put on the use of Guiacum, Colchicum ,
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 heri Latterly
I placed her upon the use of the Sulphate of Bebeerine
and at. my last visit she stoutly declared that she bad
derived far more benefit from this medicine (than from
any others I bad previously prescribed for hr
"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 synfploms, and
has taken Bebeerine for tbem without feeling those symp
toms of gastnc irritation and headache which Quinina
seems to inflict upon her. I
"In other cases where I have employed the Beheerine,
either as antipenodic or as a tonic,, it has caused far
less of those irrttatingand stimulant effects twhich we
see produeed by the use cf Quinine." -
