Tha Now Island-Great Enterprises
in Preparation,
Front the San Francisco Bulletin.]
The Bulletin say the recently discover
ed island is i.3i) > miles nearly due west
from that port, and is forty miles in
length and that the position of the
island is such that it is left to the west
by vessels from the Sandwich Islands
bound to this const. It Is however, near
the track of whaling vessels from the
islands, bound for the Arctic, or rcturn
Iing from there to relit, and it is some
what surprising that these vessels had
U"t found it. I’he island is exactly in
the track from Japan or Chinn, hound
for this port, anil from its extent and
reported low elevation, most danger
ous to navigators. In the absence of
accurate knowledge of its position, it
is of importance siitlicient to justify
the Government dispatching one of its
vessels to locate mnl survey the island.
In the late voyage of (lie late steamer
Colorado, she ran very near the report
ed locality. As fogs and misty weath
er prevail in that section of the Pacific,
in the ah son eo of inform ition of the ex
istence of an island, vessels are liable
to great damage if not total loss. A
number of vessels that have sailed with
in lltc last twenty years from Asiatic
ports for this coast have never been
heard from, and as the reported island
is in the immediate track, it is not only
possible but probable they have been
% wrecked ou it. Among others, the fine
dipper ship Bomnnre of the Sen, left
Hong Kong about four rears ago.
bound for San l iancuco. and lias never
been seen or heard of since the date oi
sailing. The late discovery of the re
minus oi a wrecked vessel on ! ornwui
lis Island by (ho schooner Caroline
mills, makes it all the more probable
that this yet unexplored island may
have proved tho wrecking place ot
many vessels whose fate is now un
known.
“Wo learn that the interest in the re
ported discovery is so strong among
seafaring men, that a number of them
have formed a compilin' «»•'. will send
a vessel wilb'“ a week to cxtu;!“" lin,|
t .:,c possession ,nc A“s sen
sea elephants are reported to liavt
been seen in this vicinity, it is befievcil
that oil inconsiderable quantity coulc
be taken, and it is now uudor consider
ation by the parties to the proposed
enterprise to take fry-pots, casks, etc.
with the view of getting a return cargo
As the island is about one thousand
four hundred miles actual distauci
from this coast, and in the direct trad
of the return of China mail steamer, i
good harbor, if found, would prove o
great value as a coaling station, whirl
is much needed.”

For restoring hair upon bald heads, (from
whatever cause it may havo fallen out) and
forcing a growth of hair upon the face, it has
no equal. It will force the beard to grow
upon the smoothest face, in from five to eight
weeks, or hair upon bald heads in from two
to three months. A few ignorant practition
ers have asserted that there is nothing that
will force or hasten the growth of the hair or
heard. Their assertions are false, ns thous
and of living witnesses (from their own ex
perience) can bear witness. But many will j
say, liow arc we to distinguish th<) genuine

CEDFIOIV
BIT TE R S,
The Idlest and Hn«( Important
Discovery of the Wlne
teevitli C’entury.
"VTo man's name is more intimately connect
JlN cd with the history of Materia Medica in
the United States, or more favorably known
as a pioneer in medical discovery tlian that of
DR. JOHN BULL
OF LOUISVILLE, KY.
His inimitable preparation of SARSAPA
RILLA has long stood at the head of the va
rious compounds of that valuable drug.
His COMPOUND OF WILD CHERRY has
become a household word throughout the
W®9$ Alt© mwtw.
His WORM LOZENGES, in less than ayeur
after their introduction, attained a reputation
as wide spread as the continent of North
America. ^
But the crowning glory of his life remains
to be attained in his latest discovery, or rath
er combination, for be does not claim to bo
the discoverer of
Which is the basis of the BITTERS now of
fered to the public. That honor belongs to
the native inhabitants of CENTRAL AMERI
CA, to whom its virtues have been known for
more than two hundred years. Armed with
it the Indian hid*

Deadly Malaria,
And handles without fear the most venemous
serpents. It is a belief with them that while
there is breath in the body, the
€S&S»lt©M
la potent fA cure, no mutter wliat t'tic discnvo
may lie. Wlule 1)K. BULL is not prepared to
endorse tuis extravagant pretension, lie is
nevertheless satisfied from a thorough exam
ination of the evidence relating to ils virtues,
that as a remedy and preventive for nil dis
eases arising from exposure, either to changes
of weather and climate or to (lie miasmatic
influence, it
STANDS WITHOUT A RIVAU,
And justly deserves the reputation it has so
long enjoyed in Central America and ihe West
Indies.
IN D YSPEPSIA.
And its attendant train of symplons, it acts
more like a 6hftrm than a medicine. There is
nothing in the range of Materia Mcdica that
can for a moment bear a comparison with it
in this disease.
A full account of this wonderful plant may
be found in, the 11th edition of the U. S. Dis
pensatory, on pages 1387 and 1388.
A series of experiments in which Dr. BULL
bus been for years engaged, has just been
brought to a successful termination, and he is
now enabled to offer to the public A combina
tion of CEDKON with other approved tonics,
the whole preserved in the best, quality of cop
per distilled Bourbon Whiskey, which he is
coufidout has
HO EQTAL SH TEE WORLD.
He might furnish a volume of certificates,
but the public have long since learned to esti
mate stfch tii»n$8 at their trite value. The
sufest plan is foV every one to test for himself
the virtue of a new medicine.

It is not necessary to.publish a long list of
