WM. ACADEMY.
A Chauce to Educate your Children.
Mr. James A Bo linger,
LATE of Kentucky, respectfully informs the
citizens of Houston, that his school is now
established on a permanent basis at the Masonic
Hall, near the Presbyterian Chuch. Mr. B. having
had seven years experience in teaching, in some
of the best institutions of Kentucky and Tennessee
.is fully competent to instruct in every department
The government in this Institution wwi be mild,
though firm, decisive and uniform. Harshness and
severity will be always avoided. Strict order,
prompt obedience, and constant industry will be
required as the only means of securing the ends of
the Teachers or fulfilling the hopes of the patrons.
The morals and depod'tment of the pupils will be
especially cared for, and carefully guarded. Thor-
oughness in all the departments ef an academical
education is kept in view—scholars will be taught
to think and to rely upon their own efforts for suc-
cess. A daily record of the behavior and recita-
tions of the scholars will be kept, and a monthly
report sent to their parents, or guardians. But while
a spirit of emulation is thus excited, higher motives
to diligence are presented, by appeals to the under-
standings and consciences of the pupils, as ihoral
and accountable beings. Strict attention paid to
the physical as well as the moral and intelleetual
training of the pupils. •
The regular course of instruction in this Institu-
tion will include a Primary Department, a Junior,
aMiddleanda Senior class. The studies of each
of the classes will occupy one year.

CROIX, upon which his book treats, either person-

short space of six days, and completely and entirely
eradicate all traces of those disorders which copaiva
and cubebs have so long been thought an antidote,
to the ruin of the health of the patient. His "French
Secret" is the great continental remedy for that
class of disorders which, unfortunately, physicians
treat with mercury, to the irretrievable destruction
of the patient's constitution, and which all the sar-
saparilla in the world cannot cure.
Dr. LA CROIX'S medicines are free from all min-
eral poisons, and put up iu a neat and compact form
which can be sent by Express or Mail, and may be
taken in a public or private house, or while travel-
ing, without exposure to the most intimate friend or
room mate, or hindrance from business or study,and
no important change in the diet is necessary. Me-
dicines sent to any part of the Union, according to
directions, safely packed and carefully secured from

GO'S IMPROVED LINIMENT.
, e greatest Medical Inveution ot the present

This wonder-working medicine is carrying the day
triumphantly wherever it is, introduced. It needs
only a trial to establish its efficacy in all cases of
rheumatism, stiff joints, paralysis,
old&ores, neuraftoa. burns,
sprmns, scalds, bruises, &c., fee.
Such are the wonderful healing properties of

?h«- was induced by a friend to try the Arctic Lini-
pent,and the result was almost magical. Befere she

iJid by the time she had used six bottles, she was
completely restored to health. A whole Journal

"THE HYGIENIC PANACEA"
Is doubtless one of the most valuable discoveries to
afflicted humanity that has been produced in the
present centuary and one that renders "Mercurial
Cath rtics" entirely useless, as It will, in nearly
every species of disease, operate as effectually upon
the biliary Organs.
The inventor has for many years used the Hygi-

it will be found an invaluable remedy in the cure of
Dyspepsia costiveness Intermittent and Remittent

disease a preparation wholesome, harmless and
equally efficacious will be received as a blessing to

subtile drugs which too many use to the destruction
of health and happine s,znay be eradicated the by
