PKOSl'iSCTUS OF TUB "NATIONAL MON
UMENT,"
A weekly journal to be published in Washington,
under the sanction of the Washington National
Monument Society.
JA.MKd 0. I'ICKKTT, Editor avi> PuBuanm.
The Monument is intended to be a literary, agricultural,
anl miseellan" us paper. It will contain selections of the
literature of thu day?the best that can tie found in Ameri
can anil tin <lish publications: interesting scientific articles,
embracing mechanics; foreign and domestic news; a sy
nopsis of the proceeding* of Congress, and every tiling
that such a journal un ;ht bo expected to contain, with
the e.vt.ptlou of party politics, which will be at all times
rno^t rigorously excluded.
The Monument will l>o published for the express and
the solo purpose of aiding in tho erection of tho noble
coluin i uow rv:;ig on the hanks of the Potomac, in hon
or of tlio Father of his Country, and which every one
Who venerated the name of WasuixotoH would nyoice to
B?ii completed. After deducting out of the auliecrlptlon
the exjienses of the jotirnal proposed to l>e published,
the re'iuuning funds will be faithfully a|iplied, and with
Cu_ reserve, to the purpose indicated. The aid, therefore,
of ail Trno J,ro contribute to no patriotic ?n ob
ject, and one no national, is earnestly requested,
lly suhscriliin^ to th(? ^?n "inent, a valuable journal at a
low price inav In) obtained, >-J'? wi" I* doing somo
think.at the same time, towards completing that maji ,?tic
luemoi ial of the feation's gratitude.
The l^iard of )Amngers recommend Mr. IMckett, former
ly Fourth Auditor ot the Treasury and Charge d'AITairs to
Peru, who proposes Ui edit and publish the Monument
journal, ns one well qualified to perform the duties ot
editor, and to conduct Hie pajmr faithfully, and sat.isfao
toriiy to the subscribers. They assure their fellow-citizens
that this enterprise is not a speculation got up for indi
vidual emolument. Mr. Pickett will make the experiment
with Jiis own means and at his owu risk; if successful, he
will receive nothing -more, aud he asks nothing mote,
than a very moderate compensation for liir services. Not
one dollar, therefore, of the direct subscription to the
emotion of the Monument will Is-, in any event, applied
to the support of the paper, nor the Society in any man
ner held pecuniarily responsible.
To give the public mi idea of what may be done with the
Journal it is proposed to publish, it may be stated that a
list of lifty thousand paying subscribers, at two dollars
each, will yield an annual net profit of from fifty to sixty
thousand dollars.
The pWrtniwHters, and secretaries of all organized bodies
throughout lh? Union, are respectfully requested to act
as agent* in obtaining subscriptions, thus aiding the groat
object of Our exertions
As all editors uJi'l publishers, on account of the object
for which the Monument newrjiaper will be established,
must wish it to succeed, it is hoped that they will con
tribute to its success by publishing this prospectus.
All moneys will be remitted, and all letters and moneys
addressed prepaid, to the general agent of the Monument
Society, lion. Klinha Whittlesey, Washington.

Hy a late re-orgnnization of this department of Dels- j
ware College, the Hoard of Trustees have taken measure* ,
to place it upon a new and Improved foundation and to I
endow it with advantages possessed by ft w similar in ti
tutions in the country. The Academy, bcrcU-lorc merged
in the College, and of course subjected to all the evils
which have Wan found to attend the amalgamation of the
two departments in the same building, and under the
siUDe corenitnent, now enjoys the privilege of asnparate |
establishment, without losing those which result from its ,
relation to the College proper.
A large and elegant edifice, with all the necessary fix
tures ef a complete boarding establishment, has tx-en
erected snd furnish, d. in which the students of the Acad
,.mv hoani, under the Immediate charge or the principal
ami bis Assistants; and all its exercises are eonducteil on
a system of its own, uninterrupted by the Interests or
operations of the other department The furniture orthe

no expense has Wn spared In providing the apparatus
necessary to rend. r the means of Instruction "miplete
giving to Newark Academy facilities for pnn,t> sl*ly and
comfortable accommodation of students, fully equal to

From It- Intimate relation to the College, students of

KOH. tfOYg.?Thin Institution in situated In
oue of the healthiest parte ot the city of Wilmington, en
tirely beyond tlio settled porttous of the town. Tim uni
form healthluiuess ol tile location may l>e Inferred from
the tact Uiat, miuoo the establishment of tlu< School, about
twenty-eight years, very few cu.-e? of Meriou* indisposition
have occurred amoug the pupils, aud not ? finale death
either here, or from diseases contracted while here.
The course of instruction included, besides the ordinary
English branches, Natural Philosophy, Oheuiistry, Pliysi
oloRy, History, Kluitoric, the various branched of Mathe
matics, and tua Latin, Greek, aud French Languages. Par
ticular attention la paid to the higher Mathematics and
their application to .Mechanics and Engineering; the latter
and Surveying are taught practically by Hold operations,
with the who of appropriate instruments. Lectures on
Natural Philosophy and Chemistry, In wWell all the Im
portant principles are Illustrated by experiment*, are
regularly delivered before the students.
As the object Is to make the instruction as thorough
and practical as possible, no expense has been spared in
providing suitable apparatus. It is believed that, in this
respect, the Institution will compare favorably with any ,
similar one in the country. A carefully selected library, j
of more than one thousand volumes, containing works on
the various branches of Literature and Science, furnishes (
ample reading matter; while a Laboratory, fully supplied .
with apparatus and tests, contains all that Is necessary lor
practical Instruction in Chemical Manipulation.
The school year commenced on the third Second-day
(Monday) of the Ninth month, (Septemlier,) and Is divided j
into four iiuarlers of eleven weeks each, leaving a vacation j
of two mouths, from about the middle of the Seventh i

MOBS HOME EVIDENCE.
riHIE TESTIMONY OF ONE OF OUE LAWYEKS.?
X Mr. JAS. L. HAMILTON?Dear Sir: Although the 1
number and respectability of the testimonials of which j
vou are already in possession, as to the elficucy of your j
'Medicine, "THE (IHEAT VA. IlEMEDV," in the diseases J
which it is designed to cure, are sufficient. In mv opinion, j
to establish its reputation, and secure for it such patronage j
as will adequately reward you for the discovery of so ines
timable a Medicine?yet the great benefit which I have '
derived from its use, and the salutary effects which 1 have |
witnessed from its employment in the en sen of several j
friends, to whom I had recommended it, coustraiu me to
contribute, tin- such uge as you may think proper to make I
of it, this formal acknowledgment of its sanitary virtues.
My own case was Dyspepsia of long duration, and very
aggravated in its character, manifested by an almost total
destruction of the digestive functions, great debility, ner
vousness, emaciation, and impaired appetite, with pain,
uinl a burning sensation in the loft side of the client, palpi
tation of the heart, vertigo and congestion in the head,
and mi y other symptoms indicative of the worst type of
the di uit'e, by the use of three or four bottles of your pre
paration, been entirely reliewd. The cases of my friends,
in which your Medicine was taken, were Dyspepsia, Chro
nic Hcadaehe, aud Sore Throat, in all of which it proved
efficacious, after the trial of a vast numberjot. other reme
dies without benefit. Your medicine is as pleasant to the
taste as a. cordial, and in my experience corrects all de
rangement of the stomach, restores the wasted or enfeebled
energies of the digestive organs, aud imparts strength and
reanimation to the whole system.
Very respectfully, yours, Ac.,

Asulaud, 2uth July, 1^49.
Dear Sir: I wish to express to you the gratification I
derived on receiving the July number of the Merchants'
Magazine and Commercial iteview, from viewing your
portrait in the beginning, and from reading your rnldrcM
to your friends ul the end of it. A* hen vie feel under ob
ligations to those who liuve contributed to our informa
tion and amusement, we are nuturully desirous to tjowum
nil the knowledge of I hem, ol their appearance, of the Ica
turcs of their countenance, and ot the character and hab
its of their mind, which wo can acquire. You have placed
your numerous readers (at lciut you have iu?, if i may
not speuk for them) under those obligations; uud the
numlier of your valuable work now bclore me, in *( me
degree, sat is (ion the desire to which I have alluded.
1 have become quite familiar with the Magazine and
iteview, and have no hesitation in expressing my humblti
opinion that it is eminently entitled to the public repaid
and support. It collect# and arranges, in good on er, a huge
amount of valuable statistical aud other iulormatioii,
liighly useful not only to the merchant, but to the states
man, to the cultivator of the earth, to the manufarturi r,
to the mariner, in short, to all classes of the business and
reading community.
Entertaining Uiis opinion, I am glad that Ithas lieen,and
hope that it may continue to be, liberally patronized.
Offering you cordial assurances of my esteem and re
gard, X ain truly your friend and obedient servant,
freeman Hunt, esq. 11. CLAY.
Extract of a Utter from, Htm. Millard Fillmore.
"I have read it (Merchants' Magazine) with r pood
deal of attention, and have no hesitation in saying that 1
thiuk it one of the most valuable periodicals that was
ever published. To the merchant it seems quite indis
pensable. and to the statesman and man of general infor
mation almost equally desirable. It is a grand repository
of useful facts and information, which can be found no
where so well digested and so accessible as in these num
bers. 1 only regret that 1 do not own the whole work."
Letter from the Hon. Thomas If. llenUm.
Wahhinotow Citv, April U0, 1849.
Mr. Freeman Hunt.?Sir: 1 owe you many thanks for
the opportunities I have had to read the Merchant.?' Mag
izine, and have found it in reality to be a maymint, and
Hint well replenished, of all the useful matter which the
title would imply, and presented with a fullness and
clearness which delights while it instructs. It is, in fact,
:i mtrchaiits' magazine in the large acceptation of the
term?merchants who go between nations, whose large
operations bring many departments of knowledge, and u
view of the state of the world, into daily requisition. Hut
it is not the groat merchant only, but the one of more
modest, but, nevertheless, of most useful operations?the
merchant of the interior also?who will find this magazine
to abound with the information the pursuit of his busi
ness aud the elevation of the mercantile character re
quires. Nor is its utility at all confined to merchants,but
extends to the legislator nnd diplomatist, and to all who
are charged with managing the affairs of the nation, lor
myself, 1 have found it most useful to me ill my senato
rial labors, and have boon in the habit for many years of
carefully consulting it.
Very respectfully, sir, your obedient servant,
THOMAS II. BENTON.
Letter from Hon. Wm. H. Srioard.
My Dear Sir: Have the goodness to place my name on
your list of subscribers for the Merchants' Magazine. I
regard it as an invaluable work for the use of all who
would understand not merely commercial operations in
this extending country, but the fiscal and commercial
questions involved in the administration of the govern
ment.
I am, with gr<>at respect, your humble servant,
Freeman Hunt, esq. WILLIAM 11. SEWAliD.

riniTS NEW AND SPLENDID ESTABLISHMENT for
1 the scientific treatment of the various diseases with
which the human system is aftllcted, is situated about
three miles from the city of Buffalo, in a rural spot, and
so accessible irom all points a* to be reached without in
convenience or delay.
A line of omnibuses runs from the steamboat landings
in Buffalo to the springs every ten minutes.
The bouse and grounds see near the extensive and
lieautiful green-honsesand nurseries of the Messrs. Hodges
A Bryants; end (he scenery in ail directions is unsur
passed, as regards either variety or beauty; embracing
points of view, from which may be taken in at a glanc e
the broad expanse of Lake Krie, the Niagara fit,wing ma
jestically towards the Falls, extensive forests, and the
Queen City ol the Lakes," with its moving panorama of
steamboats and ceaseless enterprise.
The water, taken immediately from the celebrated
"Cold Spring," is unsurpassed as regards rolrtness ar.d
purify, by any In the United State ', "i lie house, recently
erected at a cost of about Seven thousand dollars, has lieen
?tiled up in m neat and elegant style, at considerable ex
tra expense, and In sufficiently capacious to accommodate
seventy-five patients.
Connected with the entablement, and constituting one
nf its attractions, are the fixtures and conveniences for In
nocent aud healthful gymnastic exercises.
MEDICAL DEPARTMENT.
The institution is under the general supervision of 8.
M. liavis. M. !>., I'ri.lessor of the Theory and I no tice of
Medicine iu Central Medical College, and Geo. W. lisvi?,
M. 1>., formerly of Dansville, N. \ ., the resident physician,
and is permanently associated with the before mcntiemd
gentleman as nounscl, and associate of the medical beard
ol control. And the friends ? f (he establishment deem it
a matter of felicitation that the services of Miss Mary M.
Taylor, a lady of high mediral attainments, who has at
tended two courses of lectures in the Central Mediral Col
lege, have been secured, end that female pat lent - can at
any time avail themselves of her invaluable aid nud coun
el.
The steward's department is under Ihe control of a pen
tie man eminently qualified for that position; and unwea
ricd pains will 1st Liken to have every thing appertaining
to the establishment arrange ! on a plan, anil conducted
in a way, to ensure the eomfoi t, and promote the health
and happiness of all who may wish to avail themselves of
its benefits. Itnths of all den rlptions, adapted lo the cure
of the various forms of disease, and const rue ted on a scale
not inferior to those of any other establishment in this
country.
An unllghteiied public sentiment hns everywhere repu
din hil a reckless use of drugs in the treatment of disc ase;
while intolerable sufferings and broken constitutions have
imperatively demanded "Reform." A return from a wide
and fatal departure from the simplicity of Nature's laws
is called for, allko by a rational love of happiness and the
deplorable exigencies of our condition. Hydropathy, or a
scientific use of water as a restorative anil c.urstive agent,
is a practical substitution of a simpla and remarkably effi
cacious mode of caring the sick; for that system of drug
ging, depleting, and cautcri/ting, w hich, in obtaining the
mastery over disease, too frequently places the patient be
yond the reach nf further annoyance. The success of the
various Water Cure establishments in tlib country, to say
nothing of any other, has fully confirmed the tmpC < of the
early discoverers and promulgators of the great trufbs
upon which the system is founded, and renders verbal
communications unnecessary. M isdeemed sufficient to
say, that the " Cold Spring Water Cure " will compare fa
vorably with any of the well-conducted establishments of
a similar character, and will lie found equal to the best,
as regards the ord< r, convenience, and desirableness of its
arrangements. The Institution Is now open for the recep
tion of patleuts, and in full operation.
