A rich mine of nickel and plumbago has been dis
covered in Morris Co., N. j., and is about to be

THE United States Mint in Philadelphia has coined
within six months about eighteen million ot the new
copper cents. The November report of that institu

ty-five thousand two-cent pieces were coined last
month. Where do they go.
ACRES OF SALT. —In the country between Sacra
mento and lone City, Reese River county, there
are a great number of salt plains, from" one to three
miles in diameter, and one that is at least fifteen
miles across, being an unbroken deposit of pure
white salt. On the salt plains is no sign of vegetation
or trace of animal life. There is not a hare, a
bird or even a lizard to be seen. All is solitude—a
painfully silent mineral waste..
A MILD WINTER PREDICTED. —The Newburyport
(Mass) Herald predicts an open Winter, with mild
weather because the coats for the ears of com give
them but covering; the springs and ponds
are not yetfull which indicates that much rain instead
of snow is yet to fall; the muskrats have built their
houses two stories high, to avoid the rise of the wa
ters ; and the nuts are scarce, as the squirrels will
have the liberty of the woods, instead of being
blocked up in their holes by snowbanks.
THE Trenton, N. .1. True American says:—Mrs
Sarah Vandegnff, who died in Trenton 011 the 30th
of November, at the age ofninety-four, was one of
the company of young maidens who sang the ode of
welcome to Washington when he passed through
Trenton to New York, April 21, 1789. This esti
mable lady never lost the enthusiasm of that day,
and within two weeks of her death, recited with ani
mation the song she had learned seventy-five years
ago. in honor of the first President of the United
States.
OIL IS ARMSTRONG COCNTT.— The Armstrong
Democrat states that "a very superior oil well has
been discorvered near Stewardson Furnace. While
some of the workmen were digging for water they
struck a veiu of oil which soon filled the well. An
engine will be on the ground in a few days which
will test the matter thoroughly." Stewardson Fur
nace is situated one and a half miles from the mouth
of Mahoning creek, twelve miles above Kittanniug,
and is owned by Alexander Langhlin, Esq. of this
city.— Pittsburg Gazette.
GAMBLING ABOLISHED AT SFA.— The Brussels cor
pondent of the London Post says it has good reasc*
to believe that the Belgian Government have made
up their minds to wipe off the stain which has long
attached to them, of deriving revenue from the
gambling tables at Spa, by the abolition of the priv
ilege which has been enjoyed by the "bank" there.
The towns of Spa, Chaudefoutaine, Ostend and
Blankenburgh, which have together with the State,
participated in this plunder, will each in certain pro
pdMons be losers by this reform ; but means of a
less reprebensive kind will be found to give them
compensation for the loss which may be thus sus
tained.
WINTER ON THE PLAlNS.— Several gentlemen re
turned to this city day before yesterday from a trip
to Idaho, among others a son of Dr. Snelson. Be
fore reaching Denver, the party were caught in a se
vere snow storm, became completeiy shut up and
suffered untold misery. Most of their males per
ished, and wagons had to be abandoned, as well as
cooking utensils and supplies. The party subsisted
for several days on parched com, which was pre
pared by a fire made from willow twigs, the only
fuel to be had. After leaving everything behind,
the party walked about one hundred and twenty
miles, and slept on the snow at nights, with corn for
a diet. Many persons 011 the plains have suffered
much by the severe storms, and it is feared many
have perished. Coining in, reports of Indian dep
redations were current, but the party had no difficul
ty with them.— St Joseph, Herald, Ith.
A TURKISH LOVE AFFAIR.— WhiIe Dr. Clarke was
on the Island of Cos, an instance occurred in which
the fatal termination of alove affair occasioned a trial
for what the Mohammedan lawyer called "homi
cide by an intermedate cause." Tbe case as fol
lows :—"A young man desperately in love with a
girl of Stanchio, eagerly sought to marry her, but
his' proposals were rejected: in consequence of his
rejection, he bought some poison, and destroyed
himself. The Turkish police instantly arrested the
fatheSt of tbe young woman as the cause, by implica
tion, of the man's death. Under the fifth species
of homicide, he became amenable for this act of
suicide. Whenjthe cause came before the magistrate
it was urged literally by the accuserr, that if he,
the accused, had not a daughter, the deceased would
not have fallen in love: consequently he would not
have been disappointed; consequently he would not
have swallowed poison; consequently he would not
have died. But he, the accused, had a daughter,
and the deceased had fallen in love, and had been
disapointed, and had swallowed poison, and had
died. Upon all these counts he was called upon to
pay the price of the youag man's life ; and being
fixed at the sum of eighty piastres, it was according
ly exacted?"

Thorough theoretical and practical instruction in all

The Philadelphia College stands first in the State, both
in point of reputation and local advantages. The point
aimed at is ;to place Commercial Education where it be
longs—in the front rank of useful instruction. To this
end a most thorough course of busines training is adopted
and carefully enforced, under the personal supervision of
competent Professors in the various departments. The
most perfect system of practical training ever devised has
been put in operation, and is successfully carried out, af
fording to students advantages such as have hitherto been
considered possibly only in connection with the counting
house. After becoming proficient in the science of Ac
counts, Penmanship, Commercial Calculations and Com
mercial Law, tho student is advanced to the Practical De
partment, where he becomes an actual Book-keeper and
Merchant : passes through the different Houses ; acts in
turn as Teller, Cashier, Ac.; learns the duties and respon
sibilities of each office, and becomes thoroughly informed
not only in the forms which aro in universal use, but in
managing the affairs'of business with system and dispatch.
. Scholarships issued at one point, are good for an un

"chain."
Diplomas are awarded to those who fulfill the prescribed
course of study, and pass the requisite examination.

STOMACHH LIVER AND BOWELS.
Curat Dyspepsia, Liver complaint, Headache, Genera! Go •
bilily, Nervousness, Depression of Spirits, Constipation
Colic, Intermittent Fevers, Cramps and Spasms, and all
Complaints of either Sex, arising from Bodily Weakness
whether inherent in the system or produced by spuria
causes.
Nothing that is not wholesome, genial and restorative
in its nature enters into the composition of HosUdtoris
Stomach Bitters This popular preparation contains no
mineral of any kind, no deadly botanical element; no
liery excitant; but it is a combination of the extracts of
rare balsamic herbs and plants with the purest and mild
est of all diffusive stimulants
It is well to be forearmed against disease, and so far as
human system can be protected by human means against
maladies engendered by an unwholesome atmosphere, im
pure water and other externa! causes, Hostetter's Bitters
may be relied on as a safeguard.
In districts infested with Feccr and Ague, it has bee n
found infallible as n preventive and irresistablc as a rem
edy, and thousands who resort to it under apprehension
of an 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 rmrvelcur.

with quinine for months in rain, until fairly saturated
with that dangerous alkaloid, and not unfrequeatly re
stored to health within a few days by the use of Hostet
j tor's Bitters.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated and the appe
tite restored by this agreeable Tonic, and hence it works
wonders in cases of Dispepsia and in less confirmed forms
indigestion. Acting as a gentle and painless aperient;,
as well as upon the liver, it also invariably relieves the
Constipation superinduced by irregular action of the di
gestive and secretive organs.
Persons of feeble habit, iiable to Nervejus Attack*, Lotc
uets of Spirit*, and Fit* of Languor, fin i prompt and per
manent relief from the Bitters. .The testimony on this
point is most conclusive, and from both sexes.
The agony of Billions Colic 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, Hostetter's Bitters produce effects
which must be experienced or witnessed before they can
be fully appreciated In cases of CotrntiMioml TFeqe

arising from Old Age, it exercises on electric influence

Last, but not least, it is The Only Safe Slim * bcin-r
manufactured from sound and innoxious materials, and en
tirely free from the acid elements present more or less in
in all the ordinary tonics and stomachics of the day.
No family medicine has been so universally, and R may
