The Democrat's Opinion of Mr. Peachey. From the True Democrat, August 11, ISSo. For Director of the Poor, JOHN PEACHEY, of Menno township, one of the staunch and reliable farmers of Kishacoquillas valley was nominated, as a man EMINENTLY QUALI FIED TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC INTER ESTS. An effort was last year made, and will probably be again, to sell the old Poor House farm, with a view of purchasing one more eligible and suitable, and therefore it is important that A PRUDENT, SAIL, AND DISCRIMINATING MAN be elected as Di rector of the Poor, for should the project be carried out, a reckless disregard of the public interests, such as was manifested in making iaii contracts, might plunge the county into "an inextricable debt.

Dr. Bower before the Election Last Year. , From the True Democrat of September 10, !557.] have FULL AUTHORITY for saying that Dr. Bower will not vote for any appro priation to the Sunbury and" Erie Railroad Company. No such project is or has been contemplated, and no such appropriation ask ed for by that Company. This the Gazette knows as well us we do—and yet it has the unfairness to allege that Dr. Bower is commit ted to such action. But further, our candi date Dr. Bower, is opposed in toto to GRANT ING THE CREDIT OF THE STATE as a loan OR IN ANY OTHER SHAPE, either to the Sunbury and Erie Railroad Company, or to any other corporation for any amount whatever. Will the Gazette do the Democrat ic party and its candidates the common justice to say so, now that it has repeatedly alleged and insinuated the contrary?" [Part of another article in the same paper.] "There is not a district in the State in which the Sunbury and Erie bill is now made the issue, aud not a single newspaper, of any pol ities, (as far as we eau find,) advocates the passage of any bill for the relief of, or to aid the construction of that road. A Democratic legislature last winter voted down the Sunbury and Erie bill, by a very emphatic majority ; and should the next legislature be Democratic, (of which there is no reasonable doubt,) we are satisfied no attempt to pass such a bill will be made, not only because it is well known it couid not pass, but because the contingency which induced the friends of that road to so licit a pledge of State bonds to aid the Com pany in obtaining loans, (an appropriation of money was never asked,) will no longer exist. The Gaactte's incessant harping upon the * appropriation of 50,000,000 to the Sun bury aud Erie Railroad,' tie., is, consequent ly, all 'Buncombe'—merely to deceive the people, by making them believe a question is at issue which really is not. A man must be blind indeed who cannot see into that gamqj —that ' great cry over little wool.'

As it is a well attested fact that dyspepsia is the origin of the sufferings of a large portion of those wito die of consumption, it becomes the duty of every one to use such precautions against and remedies for dyspepsia as science and experience have placed be fore them, and which have proved to he efficacious. Of this character is OK. WILLIAMS* ANTI-DYSPEPTIC ELIXIR, in corroboration of which read the following testimonials: From Mr. R. I)' Ami, New York. Dear Sir —My wife had been suffering with Dyspepsia very severely for a long time, and has been attended by two physicians for about sic weeks, from which attend ance she received no relief. 1 recently procured your Elixir for her, and after taking one bottle she is complete ly cured. I can safety say I never knew of a medicine having so quick effect in so short a time. Very respectfully yours, RUDOLPH D'ARNI, Teacher of Drawing and Music, 467 Broadway, N. Y.

N. WINANS, 9i Water st , N. Y. Dr. J. Williams —After suffering from Dyspepsia for a considerable time and failing to obtain any permanent relief, I was induced to try your Elixir. I must confess I had not much confidence at tiist, but in about two weeks was most agreeably surprised to find I was rapidly im proving in health, ' art now much fatter th an ever before and I am In as good if not better health than 1 ever was in my life Very truly yours, &e., WILLIAM YARD, 6 City Row.

James Williams—Having recently understood that it Is tour intention to resume the preparing of your Anti-Dyspeptic Elixir, and being anxious that others may be benefitted by its use as 1 have been. I herewith send you for publication, if you think proper, a statement of the effectual cure produced on me by it. For a number of years 1 have been suffering to such an extent that I became so notch debilitated, arid the discstive powers so much destroyed, Iff it It Wis With difficulty I could take and retain sufficient nourishment to support life. Neith er myself nor my friends were aware that my suffering proceeded t'roin indigestion; in the year Ift.t'J my attention was directed by my husband to your advertisement, at that time published in some of the city papers, explaining the causes and syuiptoais of dyspepsia, and confidently offering a remedy. I immediately procured and used some of your medicine with the most signal suc cess; from a state of debility, languor, and nervousness, and complete loss of the power of digestion, so great that 1 could take at first only five drops of the Elixir at a dose, 1 was iu a few days much relieved, and by continuing it a short time 1 have been restored to health, strength, and vigor, w hicti 1 still retain. 1 take great pleasure, sir, in making known the , fficacy of your Auti Dys(ieplic Elixir, and sincerely hope it may be the means of induc ing others to go and be benefitted like myself.

Lewistown, April 1, 1858.-ly WEST'S Patent Galvanic Cement _3~ J of* LJLi isJ ii"* 2.' - c i : z.'? o fIjUIE undersigned having purchased the I right fur this Cement in Mifflin and Ct li tre counties, are now prepared to furnish and put it on rooting wherever desired—the roof I being sheeted hy the uwner. Scientific men under the direction of government, and ar chitects and builders in various parts of the country, fur years have been studying arid experimenting to discover some composition or article for roofing, which would resist the changes of our climate, and would unite the qualities of linprrviowtieeaa to Water, Incom bustibility, Durability and Cheapness. No article now in use possesses these qualities. Shingles are not fire proof, and cannot he used upon flat roofs. Slate can only be used upon steep roofs. The contraction, expansion and rusting of metallic roofs are so great in this changeable climate that they soon become worthless, or the repairs will cost more than a new roof. The various cements and com positions which have been introduced, can be supplied only to very flat roofs, and they are all so affected by the action of the weather that they will nit It and run in summer and crack in winter, and in a short tiurc become crumbly and worthless. The inventor of the Galvanic Cement has labored twenty years to obviate these difficulties, and it is believed by those who have had opportunities to test the matter, that he has entirely succeeded. As now applied, 1' irst—lt is completely impervious to water. Water may continually stand upon the roof without affecting it in the least. Second—lt is fire-proof. It is so incombus tible that it will affurd ample and perfect pro tection against lire, sparks and burning shin gles from another building immediately ad joining. 1 bird—lt is durable. It is nut injured hy atmospheric changes, having been tested fur several years by the Patentee, at Syracuse, j New York. | i'ourtli—lt is cheap. Roofs will be put on for about half the cost of tin, and will last | much longer. Fifth—Repairs are easily and cheaply made. Sixth —lt is sufficiently elastic to entirely resist the expansion and contraction by heat and cold, and will remain perfect and solid in the warmest and coldest weather. ' Seventh—lt is adapted to all kinds of roofs, | either flat or steep. Eighth—lt is valuable for repairing old roofs. Old shingle roofs may he covered without removing the shingles. Old metalic roofs can be made perfectly tight and secure. Ninth—lt is especially adapted to all kinds of seaming around battlements, sky-lights and chimneys, and for the lining of cave troughs and gutters. Roofs which have given trouble for years, and which have continued to leak in spite of all efforts, can be made perfectly secure by this cement. Tenth—lt has been proved to be the best article ever used for covoring car tons and steamboat decks. Eleventh This cement applied to new tin ; roofs preserves them from rusting, hy fur nishing a coat which is at once impervious to water aud an almost perfect non-conduc,or of heat. Twelfth—lt is the only roofing material patented which contains India rubber and gutta percha. For particulars of this cement, owners of property will please address E.
