For about seven years my wife has been affected with scrofula. The disease made its ap. pearance, as it usually does, upon the glands o the neck, and continued to spread around and up behind the ear. We spared no pains nor ex pense in procuring the best medical aid-had the services of man eminent physicians, five of when were pertmeary eminent; and all failed to reader any rehbe We then visited the sul phur SprinsR but to no benefit. By this time she had beeome blind, and had to be led, and fed by a narse. The disease began to eat off one eyelid, the eyeballs becoming so inflamed that her suffering was beyond description. We had had a permanent home, but broke up housekeep uag to travel, seeking relief if there was any. We still had hope in a merciful Providence, that we would be directed to some one who had the skill to relieve her. e Afer we had lost all hopes of relief from any mea near us, we heard of a physician of great skill in an extreme Southern mcty; we repaired to his, and he frankly acknowledged that he couaild not cure such a case, and tlus there was not a physmcian in the city who could relieve her. This hyian the satedthat he bhd been him self aied with aronic disease that he could not cre, and had tapply toDr. Gilbert himself: and ued us to return to Memphis, and place Mrs. ya under his care.

Pu pils can enter at any time during the session; each pupil's session ending five months fromn the day of entrance. To the Public.-This Institution is pleasantly situated on the right bank of Bayou Lafourche, halfa mile below the thriving village of Thibo daux, sufficiently near to enjoy all its privileges, and yet removed from the noise and bustle of the town. Little need be said with regard to health; for any one who is acquainted with this section of country must acknowledge it to be one of the healthiest portions of Louisiana. 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 rmmitted to artend, ac cording to the wishes dr. telP 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 will 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 confidence of the public, pledg ing himself to devote his whole attention to the intellectual, moral, and physical education of thoese young ladies who are committed to his charge.

STRA iBS PATENT PORTABLE CORN AND FLOURING MILL, MA.VF.ACTURED BY JAaES TODD & CO., Ciuncinnati, Ohio. A MONO the many advantages of this mill . over all others now in use throughout the country, it never chokcs nor clogs in the eyes Having no driver or rind, and the stone through which the eye passes being at rest, there is no thing to obstruct the passage of the grain, which falling frce!y upon the lower stone, is instantly distributed by its centrifugal motion; whereas, in all other mills, the whirling and rapid motion of the driver, rind and stone obstructs the par sage of the grain, and piles it against the aide of the eye, until it descends in a body and chokes the mill. This serious difficulty is wholly obvi ated by running the lower stone; nor is the grind ing of this mill affected by any irregularity in the speed: it grinds unformly well, whether drive at slow or high speed, and will never be injured by running empty, as the lower stone is the one In motion, and cannot come in contact with its fellow. It is easily understood, not liable to get out of order, and can be managed by negroes, a. persons who have but a very slight knowledge of milling. For further particulars address the undersigned through the Franklin Post Office, who will give every information respecting it. W. X. THOMPSON, Agent.
