HAYS, Supt. -A. PPLET O IST 'S American Cyclopaeflia. New Rcvised Editlon. Entirely rewiittcn by tho ablcst wrttan-oq every aubject. Printed f rom unw type, umi ilustnted with Several Thousand fingfaviDge and Maps. The work originally published iinder the titlc of The New American CyclopjKdia was eompleted in 1863, since which time the wide circulation which it has attained in all parta of the United States, and the signal development whirh have taken place in every branch of scienee, literaturu, and urt, hnve induced the editora and publisbera tu submit it to an exact and thorough revisión, and to insiie a new editiou entitled Thk American Ctci,op:dh. W ithin the lant ten years the progreHs of discovery in ovory dopaitmeut of knowledíro lias made new work of reference an imperative want. The movement of politieel alfuir hns kepl pnce with the discoveries of scíence, and tlieir fraitful application to tho industrial and usetul arts and the conveniente and rotinement of social lite. Great wars and consequent rovolutions have oceurrod, involving national changos of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own country, wliich wns at ita height w hen the laat volume of the oíd work appenred, has happily been endnd, and a new course of commercial and industrial activity haa been commenced. Large accessious to our geographiciil knowledire have been made by the indefatiublc exploro of A f rica. The great political revolutiona of the last, decade, with tho natural result of tho lapse of time, have brought into public view a raultitude of new men, whoae namea are in every ono'a mouth, and of wiiose hves every one ia curious to knuw tho particular. Great battlea have been fouglit umi important sicgc? maintained, of which thedetaila are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in tho transient pnblicationa of the day, but which ooght now to take their place in permanent and authentic hiatory. In preparing the present edition for the preps, it haa accordiii!]ybeen the dim of tho edittmi to bring down the information to the latost possible dates, and to fuiiish an accurate account ot the moatreceut diacoveries in science, ofeverv fresh production in litrature, and of the newest inventions in the practical arte, as well as to give a auccinct and origiual record of the progreaa of political and hiatorieal eventa. The work haa been begun after long and careful prehminary labor, and with the moet ampio resources tor carrying it on to a auccesaful termiuation. None of tho original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been printed on new tjpe, forming in fact a new Cyclopisdia, with the aame plan and compasa as its predecessor, but with a far greater pecuniary eïpenditure. and with such improvements in its composition as have been auggested by longer expeiience and enlarged knowledge. The ïllustratioos which aro introduced fortheürat time in the present edition havo been added not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater luridity and force to the explanations m the toxt. They embrace all branches 01 science and natural history, and depict the most famous and romarkable features ot scenery, architecture, and art, as well as the varioub proceasea of mechanics and manufacturee. Although iutended for instruction rather than embelhahment, no pains havo been apared to insure their artiatic excellence; the coat of their execution ia ouormoua, and it ia believed they will Hnd a welcomc reception aa an admirable feature of the Cyclopiedia and worthy of its high charaoter.

The people of Michigan can no looger afford to pay tribute to Eaatern States by placing their Life Insurance with Eastern Corapanies, who by their charters are compelled to loan their monoy in their owü Otates, thua becoming a heavy drain on the resources of the State, when we have so reliable and well managed Life Corapany as the MICHIGAN MUTUAL. In 1873 the business of the Company was increased Fort y-eigflit and one-liulf per cent. of the total amount done the previoun flve years This shows the MICHIGAN MUTUAL LIFE hs the Confidence of the People. Thelossea the year 1823 were only PIFTVFIVE per ceut of the amcuut the mortality tables cali for, showing great care in the selection of its risks.

For Inflammatory and Chronic Kheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Eemittent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys, and Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are causea Dy vittateü ülood. Meckanical Discases. - Persons engaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and Minera, as they advance in life, are subject to paralysis of the Bowels. To puai-il against this, take a dose of AValküü's Vineoab Bittebs occasionally. For Skin Disoases, Eruptions.Tetter, Salt Bheurn, BlotcLes, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuneles, Kingworms, Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms,inrking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no anthelminitios, will free the system from worms like these Bitters. For Feniale Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of ' womanhood or the turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influenca that improvement is soon perceptible. Jaundice. - In all cases of jaundice, rest assured that your liver is not doing its work. The only sensible treatment is to promote the secretion of the bile and favor its removal. For this purpose use Vinegak BrrrEKS. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you flnd its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you flnd it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul ; your feelings will tel] you when. Keep the blood pure, and the health of the system will follow. It. II. ÜIcDONAM) &, CO., Druggiuts and General Agenta. San Fraucihco, CÊÜtatuia, and cor. Washington antl Cbarlton Stü., New York.
