" The Publisher only repeats the general sentiment in announcing that this hook will be one of extraordinary interest. Mr. Barnum's unparalleled tact and talent as a Busiue?s .Man, the grand aud liberal scale on which his prominent exterprise have been conducted, together with a happy temperament which can both give and take a hit of humor, have made his name a world-wide "house hold word." Adopting " no'hing extenuate," as his motto, he pre sents the authentic history of " Jruce Heth," the " Fijee Mermaid," the "Woolly Horse," the " Herd of Buffalo es," and other Showman incidents, generally denounced as " Humbugs," while larger space is devoted to his con nection with " Gen. Tom Thumb," and the "Triumphal Musical Campaign of Jenny Liud," Incidents of Travel, and interviews with the crowned heads and nobility of the Old orld, and sketches and anecdotes in our, own land ; the entire history of the engagement of the " Swe dish Nightengale,' and the Exact Receipts of each Con cert; the purchase and management of the American Museum ; Life before and behind the Scenes; the Travel ing Circus of earlier times, and its adventures : the Tra velling Menagerie of later date ; Agricultural experi ments; experience in Banking ; Rules for Business, and Making a rortune, and innumerable additional enterpri ses and operations, afford the author an indefinite range of subject ; aud he will abundantly prove bv his pen that he is something more than a Showman.

Transactions Koyal Society, ro- ic Ed inburgh-tdinburgh Monthly Medical Journal, March, 1S43. Having made pretty extensive trial of Bebeerine in Edinburgh, makes the following Ob servations in a letter tc Dr. Maclagan, iu January 1845: j " Yon know that Piorry and others have somewhat frightened us accouchers from employing Quinine dur ing pregnancy ; and alleging, as they do, that seni us cousequences may ensue from the use of it. Nor j 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 ol these two potent remedies in Periodic Neuralgias, latterly I have u-d the Sulphate of Bebeerine in instances of this kind, arid, as it has appeared both to me and my patients, with 'jth most perfect success. I prescribed it about a couple jof months ago to a Hady who had one of the most severe attacks of forehead and face Neuralgia that I renien.ljor to have seen. It came on towards noon, and kept Iter iu blindness and agony for some time. The ordiiatfc-y medical attendant on the family had leeched her, et(:', without relief. 1 advised the Bebeerine to be given in to grain pills repeatedly during the interval between the paroxvsms. As the medicine seemed to have no effect, I gi-adually increased it, till on the third day she took ja bout half a drachm of the Sulphate during "the fourteen or sixteen hours' intermission. To tell you the truth, I was beginning to despair of seeing the suffering f f my patient in any way relieved by it, und would haf e changed it for some other remedy next day, but su(h was not required; as, after the large dote I ineutiontjd. the usual lit was greatly less in severity, and in a dy or two entirely disappeared. Of her own accord, niy patient fell back upon the Be beerine pills some tiflie af'terwardSj when the Neuralgia was again threatened and it again speedily disappeared. j "Last year I saw a similar case of periodic Tic in the fate of a lady far advanced in pregnancy. It yielded rapidly when the patient was using the Sulphate of Bebeeniie alone. I havea lady at present onder my care. .who biis been suffering from distressing pains in the fade,, shoulder, and other parts of the body. Before I saw htr she had been put on the use of Guiacum, Colcbicum , 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. Latterh I placed her upon the use of the Sulphate of Bebeeririf , and at my last visit she stoutly declared that she had derived far more benefit from "this medicine than frop any others I had previously prescribed for her. i " I have a patient from India, where she had suffered from Ague, and whose stomach seems always to rell against Quinine. Since coming to Edinburgh she has had repeatedly a recurrence Aguish symptoms, and has taken Bebeerine for them without feeling tnose symp toms of gastric irritation and headache which Quinine seems to inflict upon her. " In other cases where I have employed tbe Bebeerin. either as antiperiodic or as a tonic, "it has caused fur less of those irritatingaiid stimulant effects which we see produced by the use cf Quiuine." I Testimonials from North-Carolina Physiciansare in the agents hands, certifying to the virtue and success of Bebeerine in Neuralgia and other diseases.
