Having been engaged for the last five years in teaching mental philosophy, as taught by phrenology, together with his numerous phreno-magnetic experiments, enable him to give correct and true delineations of mental dispositions of different persons; which will be every way profitable to all who wish to understand the mysteries of their own natures, and how they may use their talents to the best advantage.

EGAN'S sarsaparilla panacea, sold at Francis Stead's city drug store, 76 Lake Street. There are in the hands of Dr. Egan private letters from our most respectable citizens containing accounts of some astonishing cures from the use of this article, which can be seen at his office.

We call the attention of the public to the advertisement, which we commence this week, of Dr. Egan's Sarsaparilla Panacea. Being yourself a medical man, we may be permitted to say that we are acquainted with Dr. Egan, and know him to be a man of science and of high standing in his profession. We take him to be above quackery, and are confident he would not, if he could, palm a useless nostrum upon the public for the sake of paltry gain. The Sarsaparilla has long been celebrated for its restorative and renovating effects in chronic disease, and there is no doubt that Dr. Egan has succeeded in giving a more effective and successful combination than it has before received. We believe it worthy of confidence, and recommend its trial by the afflicted.-' St. Charles Patriot.
