had on board one thousand eight hundred barrels,
and had to be towed over to the opposite side of the

flame. Thousands assembled to witness the beauti

ABOUT MOTHS. —Many a lady, on taking out her
fkrs the past winter, noticed the hairs falling out,
and, on examining the skins themselves, found them
perforated with small holes. These holes are cut
by the moth, an insect whose habits every lady
should know all about. Naturalists tell us that the
moth is the larva of a family of insects called Timea.
Its winged life liegiiis in the spring, and lasts only a
few months. It is small, and of a light brown color.
After fluttering around a short time, it finds a mate,
when the happy pair go to housekeeping and to
rearing up a family. The female creeps into crack
nnd crevices, into closets and clothes' presses, under
the edges of carpets, wherever woolen or furs are
stored awav, and there she lays her eggs. The par
ents soon die. In aJV>rt night the eggs hatch out in
to light-colored caterpillars, about a quarter or half
an inch long. They begiu to gnaw upon whatever
they can find to make nests of. It is in doing this
that so many carpets, so much upholstering, and
so many furs are punctured. *
.In winter they lie torpid. In spring the chrysa
lis gives birth to the winged insect, which again be
gins the circle ofpairing and egglaying, as its par
ents had done before. Now, as moths lay their eggs
mostly in June, that evidently is the best time for
making an onslaught amoug them. Take out every
article of fur or woolen, give a thorough shaking and
whipping, a long exposure to hot sun, ifpracticable,
and another dressing with the switch before storing
them. Put sah and Scotch snuff under the edges of
the carpets. Fumigate the closets and drawers
with tobacco. On returning the articles to their
places pnt small branches of cedar or distribute little
packages of camphor gum among them. — American
Agricultu ralut.

C. A. BAXKYART— Dear Sir : I have nged Brown's
Bronchial Troches, Wigtar'g Lozenges and other prepara
tion for hoarseness and Throat Troubles, and in compar
ison with them all, can cheerfully commend your own as
a mogt admirable specific for public speakers and gingers,
in cases of Hoarseness, coughs and colds. I have found
them serving in time of need most effectaally.
Tours truly,

HARRISBURG, Jan., 1864.
To C. A. BAKRVART— Dear Sir: In the habit of speak
ing Tery frequently, and in places where the vocal organs
are very much taxed, I have found the need of some gen
tle expectorant, and that want has been supplied in your
excellent Troches. I consider them very far superior to
any Lozenger that I have ever used, in removing speedi
ly that huskiness of the voice arising from its too frequent
use, and impairing the effectiveness of the delivery of
public addresses. Yours, Ac.,
JNO. WALKER JACKSON,
Paetor of the Locuet Street Methodiet Church.
To C. A. BANKVART— Dear Sir: —Having used your
Troches, I am free to say they are the best I have ever
tried, and take great pleasure in reoommending them to
all persons afflicted with soar throat or huskiness of voice
arising from public speaking or singing.
Yours, Ac.,

HOSTETTER'S
CELEBRATED
STQRMCH BITTERS.
A pure and powerful Tonic, corrective and alternative f
wonderful efficacy in disease of the
BTOMACHH LITER AND BOWELS.
Curas Dyspepsia, Liver complaint, Headache, General de
bilily,' Nervousness, Depression ofßpirit*, Constipation
Colie, Intermittent Fevers. Cramps and Spasm*, and all
Complaints of either Sex, arising from Bodily Weakness
whether inherent in the system or produced by special
causes.
Nothing that is not wholesome, genial and restorative
in its nature enters into the composition of Hosteller's
Stomach Bitters This popular preparation contains BO
mineral of any kind, no deadly botanical element; no
fiery ezeitant : but it is a combination of the extracts of
rare balsamic kerbs nd plants with the purest and mild
est of ail diffusive stimulant*
It is well to be forearmed against disease, and so far aa
human system can he protected by human mean* against
maladie* engendered by an unwholesome atmosphere, im
pure water and ether external causes, llo*tetter'a Bitter*
may be relied on a* a safeguard.
In districts infested with Fever and Ague, it has been
found infallible as a preventive and irreristable as a rem
edy, and thousands who resort to it under apprehension
at tin attack, escape the scourges and thousands who neg
lect to avail themselves of its protective qualities in ad
vance, are cured by a very brief course of this marvelous
medicine Fever and Ague patient*, after being plied
with quinine for months in vain, until fairly saturated
with that dangerous alkaloid, and not unfrequcntly re
stored to health within a few days by the use of Hostet
tcr's Bitters. . ...
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated and the appe
tite restored bv this agreeable Tonic, and hence it works
wonders in eases of Dispepsia and in less confirmed forms
indigestion. Acting as a gentle and painless aperient*,
as well a- upon the liver, it also invariably relieves the
Constipation superinduced by irregular action ef thedL
gestive and secretive organs.
Persons of feeble habit, liable to Aeirou* Attache, Line
ne* of Spirit*, and Fit of Lanyuar, find prompt and per
manent relief from the Bitters. The testimony on this
point is most conclusive, and from both sexes.
Tfce agony of Billious Colie is immediately assuaged by
a single dose of the stimulant, and by occasionally resort
ing to it, the return of the complaint may be prevented.
As a general Tonic, Hontetter's Bitters produce effects
which must be experienced or witnessed before they can
be fully appreciated In cases of ConnUtvtional Weak
nen*. Premature Decay and Debility and Decreptitude
arising from Old Age, it exercises on electric influence.
In the convalescent stages of all diseases it operates as a
invigorant. When the power* .)f nature are relaxed, it
operates to re-enforce and re-establish them.
Last, but not '.oast, it is The Only Safe Stimulant, being
manufactured from sound and innoxious materials, and en
tirely free from the acid element* present more or less in
in all the ordinary tonics and stomachics of the day.
No family medicine has been so universally, ana it may
be truly added. deeervedly popular with the intelligent
portion of the community, as Hostetter's Bitters.
Prepared bv HOSTETTER A SMITH, Pittsburg.
Sold by all Druggists, Grocers and Storekeepers every
