IMP R OVEMENT S.--We understand that
Mr. JEREUIAII CULP is about commencing the
erection of a large two-story brick residence,
in York street, immediately in front of, and
to connect - With, the iSuilding in which he now
resides. This improvement (with a few coats
of paint on neighboring houses) will add
greatly to the appearance of that part of the
town.
Mr. JAcon NORRECK has commenced opera
tions en the Kerr building, across . - the way, ,
with the view of an early removal of his Store
into it. We• have no doubt that before many
days, it will wear a vastly improved face.
The Messrs. CIIRITZMAN are pulling down
the old buildings on the School-house lot, in
high street, and when done will commence
the large building rec tly contr ted for.
The cellar walls are a eing put up
for the three-story brick dwelling and_busi

The old dwelling of Mr. HENRI Rum., in
- York street, is also being taken down, pre
.paratory to the'erection of a large two-story
brick, ou the same site.

Chronicle states that the Pennsylvania por

sum of 530,000.
EU - There is an article selling throughout the country
that has attained the widest celebrity ever known as a reme
dy for Liver C9inplaints. We have reference to Dr. San
ford's Invigorator, or Liver Remedy, that has performed
cures almost too great to believe, were it not for the un
doubted evidences that accompany the testimonials. It is,
in truth, the greatest remedy known for Dyspepsia, Jaun
dice, or a general debility. that so often baffles the skill of
our most eminent physicians .
Dr. Sanford has been for a long time one of the eminent
physicians of New York, and it is said, most of his cases
were treated with the Invigorator with such invariable suc
cess that he has been induced to offer it as a family medi
cine, a nd l e t the world have the benefit of his discovery.—
If those who are troubled with debility. heartache. languor,
or slow, lingering fever will try a bottle, we think they
might mare physicians' bills, and days, perhaps years of
suffering.
