I these republican times, when a man can pursue the bent of his own inclinations, in selecting to what vocation he will lend his labors, and when each one, by consequence, has his own business to attend to, it befalls air individual to sing his own praise, and it befalls the publie at large to seek a verification in propriis of the representation which i he makes of his mode of dealing and and the quality of the articles by which he hopes to attract the fancy. To this attestation the proprietor confidently challenges the scrutiny of the public. In doing so, however, he must ask indulgence of a portion of the community whose favor he would especially court.

It wocld be little short of impudence to proclaim in Petersburg, so prcverbial forthe beauty of its "fair sex," that an offspring ef man's fancy could give an additional polish to the exterior of its ladies but there is something in the inner attains its perfection of development in the female mind, to which the beautiful peculiarty addresses itself and it is with a reference to this mystic influence that he ventures his invitation. The extetisive valua ble and fancy-intoxicating collection of evefy thing that appertains to a jeweller' line of business, alluded to, can be seen At J. T. YOUNG'S Emporium of Fashion, No. 40 Sycamore street.

He hopes the public will not seek for a criterion of his rapidity of motion as well as that of some his articles of trade, in the sign which is suspended before his door; the one is beautifully slow in its motion, if in motion at all, but the other only requests a trial to prove his promptitude in fulfilling his contracts. Among the innumerable variety of articles which he has to exhibit, can be found the following, viz 1 gold hunting lever watches do duplex do; dd anchor do; do cylinder do; silver hunting lever do; do do anchor do; do do cylinder do; gold bracelets, breast-pins, ear-drops, thimbles; fob, vest and gunrd chatalaine silver ware, table, tea pottm, cake and fruit goblets, Bait cellars, mustard pickle knives, forks and spoons, plated ware, do tea sets, castors, waiters, fruit and card baskets, candlesticks, snuffers and trays, Besides these there are many others, an enumeration of whicht it would require the patience of a Job to peruse, and just apprecia-tionof which can only be effectedby the skillful eye ef the practised artist, lie is prepared to furnish everything in his line of business on the most satisfactory terms.
