FORBES 



FOUNTAINS. 



Besides the great utility of a jet of water on oma- 

 mentiil grounds, it is one of the most refreshing and 

 delightful things in the warm season. Fountains 

 add greatly to the beauty of water jets. They may 

 be had of various prices, from the simple vase, that 

 costs but a few dollars, up to the large and magnifi- 

 cent,' that are used in public places, that cost hun- 

 dreds of dollars, according to one's taste, means, and 

 situation. Any ingenious person may, by wood 

 work, made in imitation of stone, or by bricks or 

 stone, make very comely or beautiful fountains, at a 

 very small expense. 



A great many people have convenient means of 

 ha\'ing a jet of water on their ornamental grounds, 

 at very small expense, especially in connection with 

 water for the house and barn. What is more grate- 

 ful to our feelings, on a hot summer's day, and in a 

 dry location, than a stream or spring of water ? And 

 when it is thrown up in a jet, in an ornamental 

 fountain, it is one of the most bea^itiful things that 

 can gladden the heart of him who surveys a tasteful 

 scene, in a garden, lawn, or other place of embellish- 

 ment. 



HORSE AND CATTLE MEDICINES, &,c. 



Dr. G. H. Dadd, Nos. 1 and 2 Ilayraarket Square, 

 Boston, keeps a complete assortment of medicines 

 for the various diseases incident to domestic animals. 

 He is a veterinary surgeon, and he treats diseases by 



an improved mode, avoiding bleeding and powerful 

 and dangerous mineral medicines, and going for the 

 reformed practice, by the use of botanic medicines, 

 mild means, and good management. 



His medicines arc prepared by him in his own lab- 

 oratory, and he produces the highest testimonials in 

 their favor from many of the most intelligent men in 

 the country. Dr. Dadd has studied the art of heal- 

 ing the human race, and he has had some practice 

 in medicine and surgery in that profession, which 

 enables him to be more thorough in his present prac- 

 tice. From our acquauitanee with him, and the 

 reasonableness of his system, we consider it strongly 

 marked by common sense, the most important faculty 

 in the competent practitioner. We cheerfully recom- 

 mend Dr. Dadd's medicines to the consideration of 

 the public, and we commend him to those who would 

 consult or employ a veterinary surgeon. He is about 

 publishing a Compendious Dictionary of the Veter- 

 inary Art, embracing also Outlines on Anatomy and 

 Physiology, and Directions for Feeding, Watering, 

 and Management generally. 



LiTEUATunK AND EcoNOMY. — If a young man has 

 a taste for literature, and virtuous and intelligent 

 society, his economy will bo a thing of course ; be- 

 cause his pleasures will not be expensive, and not 

 dependent on the caprice of fashionable and extrav- 

 agant associates.
