DEMOCRATIC REVIEW.
&REATLY REDUCED PRICE -FROM *4 TO *3 PER
ANNUM.
single coyy, twenty-five cents.
PROSPECTUS OK THE SEVENTEENTH VOLUME.
THE price of the Democratic Review has
heretofore been too high?not for its size, cost,
and character, but for the means of tens of thousands
of readers who would be glad to receive it,
and among whom it is highly desirable that it
should circulate. For the purpose, therefore, of
largely widening the range of its usefulness, and of
multiplying the numbers of those to whom it may
be accessible, it has been determined, simultaneously
with the great reduction in the expense of the
postage, to reduce its subscription price ulso, from
.fire to only Ihrte dollars; and when several unite
in subscription, to as low as $3 50, or even to $3 30
per annum.
This very large reduction in the receipts (accompanied
with but a comparatively Bmall diminution
of its expenses) involves, of course, an entire sacrifice
of profit upon it, unless compensated by a vast
multiplication of its subscribers. There will be at
the outset only a small reduction in its number of
nnirpa: annn tn ha. restored to its old number, with
out increase of price, whAi the anticipated success
of the experiment shall justify it.
The portraits of distinguished democrats will lie
continued, engraved in better and more costly style
than heretofore.
The postage will hereafter, for any distance, he
only five and a half cents ; it has heretofore been, for
over 100 miles, eighteen cents.
We look for an extension of circulation to be
reckoned by lens of tlmusands, as the rrsult and compensation
of this great reduction of price. Every
friend of the work, and of the democratic principles
and cause, is confidently appealed to, to exert himself
with an active interest to procure it subscribers;
both to extend its usefulness, and to carry it successfully
through the crisis of this great reduction of
1 its receipts.
Those who have pnid in advance for the coming
year, will receive it, at the reduced rate, for a year
and a half.

French and Engl'uh seminary fbr Young Ladies, corner
of E and 9th streets, Washington city.
THE location of tina seminary ia one of the most
desirable in the city, on account of its healthy
und airy position. The house is large and commodious,
with ample grounds and other facilities for
amusement and recreation. The principal, so well
and favorably known in this city, and in New
York, from her long experience in teaching, hones
to give entire satisfaction to all who may con nde
their daughters to her care. She is a native of
France, and familiar with its language and literature,
and conversant with the best and easiest modes
of impurting to her pupils a perfect knowledge of
that language, so that they can not only rcau and
write, but speak it fluently. She has secured able
asiistants for various departments, so that all
branches of an English as well as French education
will be thoroughly taught. Pupils who reside in
the family have the peculiar advantages of hearing,
and conversing at all times in the French language,
and of perfecting themselves in the science of music,
being under the surveillance of an experienced
teacher. The course of instruction, besides the
usual elementary branches, includes all the higher
studies pursued in the most approved northern seminaries.
The discipline is mild and affectionate, yet
decided, Hnd is maintained by appeuls to the affections
and conscience of the pupil; it is designed, by a
proper development and cultivation of the better
qualities of the heart, to bind more affectionately the
pupil to her teacher, and by it to secure obedience.
As sound physical, moral, and intellectual improvement
and culture, are the great objects desired, it is
the aim of the principal not so much to crowd the
memory with words, ub to draw forth and train the
systematic and vigorous action, the observing, re
fleeting, and active powers of the mind. The.
charges to those who reside in the family are, for
board and tuition in all the branches of French and
English, $200 per annum for a single pupil;- but
when two or more ore entered at the same time, a
liberal deduction will be made. The additional
churges per quarter are for music, piano, and guitar,
$15; use of instrument, $2 50; vocal music, $5. To
day scholars, the charges for tuition in the first
department in French or English, are $10;
together, $15; in the second department first
class French or English, $8; together, $12; in
the second class French or English $7; together
$10, in the third department, first class, French
or English $6; together $9; in the second
?lass, French or English $5; together $8; Latin $4,
other languages, drawing, painting, and dancing;
at professor's churges. Pupils can be entered at any
time, and will be charged only from the date of their
rniiuiice. no ueuucuon win oe mnue 10 mose who
absent themselves after commencing a quarter, unless
prevented from attending by sickness. Bills in
all cases to be paid in advance. Every attention is
paid to the religious as well as moral and Intellectual
instructions of the pupils, but no sectarian peculiarities
are ever inculcated. Those residing in the family
will attend such churches as their parents may
sel;ct, under the care of a teacher. They will attend
the Episcopal church with the Principal, when
no other directions are given. Any other information,
and the most satisfactory references will be
given on application to the principal.

EXTENSION OP PATENTS.
[circular.]
Patent Office, June 21, 1845.
THE undersigned, constituted by law a board to
decide upon applications tor the extension of
patents, have adopted the following suggestions and
rules, tor the benefit of those persons who may
hereafter apply for extensions.
The questions which arise on each application for
an extension are?
1. Is the invention novel?
2. Is it utqfid?
3. Is it valuable tuid important to the public?
4. Has the inventor been adequately remunerated
for Ins nme and expense in originating and perfectingit?
5 Has he used due diligence in introducing his
invention into general use?
The two first questions will be determined upon
the result of an examination in the Patent Office;
us will also the third, to some extent.
To enable the board to come to a correct conclusion
in regard to the third point of nquiry, the applicant
should, if possible, procure the testimony of
pereons disinterested in the invention, which testimony
should be taken under oath.
In regard to the fourth and fifth points of inquiry,
ill addition to his own oath showing his receipts and
expenditures on account of the invention, by which
its vuluc is to be ascertained, the applicant should
show, by the testimony of disinterested witncases
011 oath, thut he has taken all reasonable measures
to introduce bis invention inttfgeneral use, and that,
without default or neglect on his part, he has failed
to obtain from the use and sale of the invention a
reasonable remuneration for the time, ingenuity,
and expense bestowed on the same, and the introduction
thereof into use.
The report of the examiner upon the novelty and '
utility of the invention, will be. ready fifteen days
liefore the day appointed for the hearing, which will
lie open for inspection nt the Patent Office; copies of
which will be furnished to all parties interested, if
desired, on payment of the usual fees for copies.
In case of opposition by any person to the extension
of a patent, both parlies may take testimony,
each giving reasonable notice to the other of the
time and place of taking said testimony, which shall
be taken according to the rules prescribed by the
Commissioner of Patents in cases of interference.
All arguments submitted to the board muBt be in
writing.
In conclusion,, the undersigned would remark,
generally, that a monopoly of his invention is secured
by law to the inventor for the term of four
teen years. This is (lone with a view to compensate
him for his time and expense in originating and
perfecting it. At the end of the time for which his
patent runs, his monopoly should cease, and the invention
become public property, unless he can show
good reasons to the contrary. The presumption is
always against his application; and if he cannot
show that his invention is novel, useful, valuable,
and important to the public, and that, having made
nil reasonable effort to introduce it into general use,
he has not been adequately remunerated for his
time and expenses in discovering and perfecting it,
the board cannot grant an extension.

DR. DYOTT'S ANTI-BILIOUS PILLS.
AS a family medicine, a mild and gentle purgative,
and purifier of the blood. The general
use of these celebrated pills throughout the United
States for these forty years past, and the stiong recommendations
they have acquired from all classes
of our fellow-citizens, places them in a much more
elevated situation in public estimation, than any
other remedy which lias heretofore been introduced.
The following arc among the many diseases for
which Dr. Dyott's celebrated pills are so deservedly
distinguished for curing. By their counteracting
properties in removing the bile from the stomach,
they prevent and cure the bilious fever; chills, or
ague and fever; spring and fall fevers; yellow fever;
bilious cholic; pleurisy; dysentery; worms; bilious
vomiting; sick and foul stomach.
By cleansing the bowels and stomach from all impurities,
they restore the loss of appetite, remove
flatulency, cure the headache, habitunl costiveness,
colds, cqughs, asthma, epileptic filn, hypochondria,
hysterical complaints, strnnguary, gravel, Ac.
By a general and copious use, they will be found
very beneficial in curing the rheumatism and gout,
lumbago or pains in the buck.
All Impurities in the blood yield to their happy
effects, whether proceeding from constitutional ailment,
or from indiscreet intemperance.
These celebrated pills have been used to very
great advantage in curing the dyspepsia, or indigestion,
bronchitis., liver complaint, Ac.
They are an infallible me.dieina for female com
plaints generally, and especially for removing those
obstructions which are the source of their ailments
at certain periods; they possess the eminent advantage
over most other purgatives, that, while they
operate gently, they produce neither costiveness, debility,
or loo great excitement.
Whenever there is a predisposition to receive
disease from marsh effluvia, or trom n too copious
use of ardent spirits, or from s vitiated state of the
bile, these pills will nssurcdly counteract it.
They are highly recommended to travellers by
Sea or 18110, ana may w iimu* un til Willi nm.-iy
without change of diet, and in aituationa where no
exercise can be used. They will be found particularly
valunble for preventing diseases incidental to
hot climates; they deterge and cleanse viscid humors,
open obstructions, ana promote the secretion of
?;ood bile, operate as an easy cathartic, as a powerill
diuretir, nnikas a diaphoretic.
Dr Dvott, under the strong conviction of the
power of his pills to relieve the afflicted, recommends
the use of them to those who are in health
an well as the afflicted, at leace once a fortnight, during
the spring and summer months, in which he
feels assured those who attend to his advice will
find the benefit they seek.

28th of July, 1817, they made and executed a letter
or power of attorney, authorizing Benedict Miidd,
of Charles cxiunty, Maryland, to sell Baid land; and,
in pursuance thereof, ne made a contract of sale
with William Fletcher, who now resides in Prince

said land; and then, for valuable consideration, assigned
said bond to the complainant.
The bill further states, that the complainant is

obtain a deed; but that he has been unable to find the
power of attorney under which the land was sold.
The bill also suites that Francis Beaven and his

magnesia, imparting tone to the system, and acting
as a powerful alterative, as numerous visiters can
testify, having been visited for the last fifty years,
arid, had it not bean for ita contracted accommodations,
must have been among the first watering
places in the Union. For the last five years, the
improvements have been increased so as to accommodate
between two and three hundred visiters.
The proprietor has endeavored to put this watering
place on a footing with the most fashionable and
comfortable places of the sort, in a plain style, and
will use every exertion in his power to make his
visiters comfortable.
It is easy of access for all the Atlantic cities. Persons
leaving Baltimore in the morning cars will arrive
at the depot at 3 o'clock the same day, where a
coach will be in readiness to take them immediately
to the springs.
The proprietor feels thankful for the encouragement
he hna received from the public, and will use
every exertion to merit a continuance of it, by making
those comfortable who may give him a call.
