Tho above tract of land comprises the celebrat-'

TIAT desirable location lenown as More town,
situated at tho great falls of the Colorado
Rirer, hbout SO miles from the city of Au.*tin, is
now offered for sale on very advantageous terms.
This gp'endld water power presents advantages
for improvement rarely to be met with. The river
been has a fell of 48} feet in about one mile, so
divided as to make several mill sites, and the vast
amount of water afforded furnishes as immense
amount of power. The tract consists of see
acres, at the lower falls, on the West side of the
river a considerable part of which is corned
with excellent cedar timber for building purposes.
The advAnta^es combined in this lccation are
rarely equalled by the manufacturing cities at the
North. Farther description is deemed unnecessa-
ry as the property must be seen to be appreciated.
To a company of manufacturing capitalists an
undivided half interest would be sold, ami to those
of smaller mans who desire to improve, building
lots would he sold on very low terms. For fur-

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY !!
fsihe reason why Lord Raglan has not stormed j
E- Sevastopol, has been mainly owin to tbe ;
weak and enfeebled condition of the Allied Armies.
caused by their unparalleled sufferings in an inhos-
pitable climate. It has now been clearly ascer-
tained to have been produced by the absence of
Robertson's Tonic Hitter*, which.
would have supported and invigorated oven the 1
hardy soldiers, so much that those armies would !
have been in a robust and healthy condition and
his lorship could, with ease and elegance, have] evcO" £!ZC-
effected his object. Icis now whispered iu certain I Ledgers and Jouraais for Merchants, Registers
circles that the attention of Her Majesty's Govern- for Hotels. j
ment with that of France has been drawn to this j Tuck Memorandum and Pass Books, all of which i

THE fourth session of this school will spen on
Monday, February4th, 1856. The terms—the
iame as heretofore published—will not be' violated
unless by special arrangement. All who design
attending this session, are earnestly requested to
begiu with the commencement, and to let no hind-
rance, not absolutely necessury, prevent a punctu-
al daily attendance. Irregular attendance, and rnp
' bid, or even fair literary progress cannot go together.
and absence from recitations, even for a few days
only, occasions a much greater injury to the stu-
dent, than is commonly supposed.

It is distinguished by vioh ot vomiting and
purging, and great emaciatien; it is rafiid in its
pr- gress, and soon sinks the IttUe sufferer into a
lata! prostration, unless the disease is arrested be-
•ort the patient is too far gone. Of all tbe dis-
eases to which children are liable, this, produce*
the most frightful mortality.

This form of board compKint is very con.mon
among children ; it is Ireqnentlv produced, or Le)*
up. by the irritation- of teething, eating unripe
fruit, or tiie use of improper diat. When it is
caused by teething, and the child's gum< are in-
flamed or swollen, t-riftne gum apjears to be
tightly stretched over the tooth whit li ia about to
come through, the gum should be free!}- cut with
a sharp instrument, or the jKiint of a sharp pea
knife, down to the tooth; after doing this, gH'etke
'Carminative and Astringent Syrup la doses aa

This preparation has attained .* wide ~r|rWijy
from the universal sncctss which has attended its
use. For congbs. colds, and in litct any |
ry c mplaints. this medicire, from its pee
jierties as a dissolvent, and its eoothi^ power
over all irritations of the throat, will probably bo
pref- rred to any ether offered to the public. As
an appetizer, or dyspeptic remedy, it * ill also be
excellent, its natural and genial warmth
keeping the digestive powers in proper tone.
Kemember flhat this is the only cougfi medicine
that has stood the testofHie medical tmtefafry.®^
is sanction^ ^y. approved of, and reran*ettdect
by tbe leading physicians of New York city. £vetf
