S. GILcEERT.-We have been intimately acquainted with Dr. S. Gilbert's practice for four years :we have often vis;ted his extensive In rirmary, near Memphis; have closely observed his successful treatmecnt of the most difficult cases, and we feel it to be a duty we owe to the community at large, to express our entire conti deuce in his skill andjuiidgment in the successfiul management of such diseases as he professes to cure. He has, in our judgment, bhen tar more successful in the treatment of that class of dis eases he professes to cure, than, any other phy sician in the world. A.. GABBETT, M. D. WI . DENNEY, M. D. J.

Something over four years ago a tumor ap peared above my shoulder blade, which contin ued to grow rapidly until it was as large as my two fists. Soon after another appeared on the opposite side. About the nmddle of last May I called on Dr. S. Gilbert to examine the tumor, which he pronounced to be a fiungus of the most malignant kind. As a proof, he referred to the purple streaks which appeared plainly upon the surface of the tumor, and was very donbtful whether a cure could be accomplished, and ad vised me to consult some other surgeon. This I refused todo. At length I was put under treat ment. My disease proved to be very stubborn, having an inclination to bleed profusely Suffice it to say that his remedies soon overcame the growth, which was remov d before a crowd of spectators, without the knife, and I am happy to state that through Divine Providence I am in debted to Dr. Gilbert's skill for my present sound and good health, which I have been enjoying for several months, and do most cordially recommend him to all who may be atfflicted, believing that he can cnre them if in the reach of remedial agents. I have been living in this city many years, and can be seen at my office, Gravier street. ARTEMON HILL. New Orleans, December, 1850. SHERMAN'S PATENT PiERill't ABDOMINAL "SUPPORTER kM .ld o!

Religious privileges are good; four churches-Catholic, Episcopalian, Methodist, and Presbyterian-are within half a mile of the Institution; either of which, the pupils are permitted to artend, ac cording to the wishes of their parents. A large and convenient building having been added to the Institution, it is now capable of ac oommodating fifty young ladies as boarders.- The principal study room is large, well ventilated, and conveniently arranged for one hundred pupils. The recitation rooms are pleasantly situated. The present teachers are well qualified for their respective departments, and should an in crease in the school warrant a further increase of teachers, none will be employed but such as are well qualified. No pains wvil be spared by the Principal to make this Institution equal to any in the Southern country. Thankful for the past patronage, he would again solicit the confid-nec of the public, pledg ing himself to devote his whole attention to the intellectual, moral, and physical education of those young ladies who are committed to his charge.
