THE Pious Youth is the title of a new
youth's paper published by H. R. Ilolsinger,

merit. We wish onr friend Holsinger suc
cess in his new enterprise and have no doubt
he will meet with liberal encouragement
among the clSfes of people for which the Pious
Youth is specialty tulended.
EMIGRATED from this office on Wednes
day morning last, the Junior Editor. Be
coming tired of a lonesome life in this region,
ho struck a bee-line for the state of niatri
wony, since which time he has not been
heard from. He left with our best wishes
for his success and prosperity; but we can
not refrain fiom expressing the belief that
it was only his inexperience in the felicities
of editorial life that induced this rash step.
However, in as much as the thing is done,
suggest to all kindly disposed persons,
w,io naturally take an interest in new settlers
o: this class, that & corresponding increase
0- pattonage is respectfully solicited at this
office. !
PAYING FARMIKO. —Two things are true of
I farmers as a class. But few of them ever
i come to cctnal want, and but few ever attain
to great wealth. Probably no business af
fords so sure an avenue of support, and this
I is no small consideration in these days of
fluctuations. The majority of farmers feel
: that farming is perpetual slavery, because
that after hard steady work from cue year's
j end to the other, they find themselves at the
! end of the year just where they started from,
| The price of farm products are high, the far
| mer is economical, sells the best of every
j thing, denies himself and family, is up early
j and late, and just keeps his head above wat
! er. We tbink tbia is a truthful picture of
the majority of farmers. A few like John
Johnston, of Geneva, New York, rise grad
ually from this condition to one of abundant
wealth. W hat makes the difference be
tween these two classes? We answer that in
every case the difference is in head work.
j The majority of farmers tread right on in the
j old paths regardless of the immense improve
imenta that have been made in modern agri
culture, improvements as important as the
j application of steam in mechanics or the loom
|;o manufacturing. Suppose a manufacturer
j disregarding the fact of the loom should at
tempt to make cloth as our grandmothers
made it? why he could not come into compe
tition at all with other manufacturers and
would lose ground. He would stand in jus'
the position that thousands of farmers occu
py, who ignore the modern improvements in
the cultivation of the soil. We are aware
that the information necessary to the farmer
has been locked up in many costly volumes
written in a scientific language that the far
mer did not understand, but this difficulty
has now been overcome aud the whole sub
jecl has been reduced into one ordinary sized
volume, written in the plainest and most
practical manner; (it is entitled " How to
Make the Farm Fag." This volume treats
of every subject in which the farmer is inter
ested.
The first chapter treats of drainage as the
foundation of all improved culture, and gives
plain practical rules for all the operations of
drainage.
The second chapter treats of plowing, show
ing when, where, how, and what to plow.
The third chapter is upon manures, and is
one of the most interesting and valuable we
have ever seen; it shows just bow aud where
the manure goes to waste, and how at a very
trifling expense the manure can be doubled
in quantity, quality and value. There are
also fuil directions for the purchase aud use
of commercial fertilizers after the most has
been made of what every farmer has at his
hand. This chapter if read, and its direc j
tions followed, would surely double the wealth
of every farmer in ten years. Chapter four
treats of the purchase, use and care of all
Farm Implements. Chapter five of the cul
tivation of grain. Chapter six of grasses and
bay making. Chapter seven of root crops:
and chapter eight on special crops and the !
rotation of crops. This chapter gives the
latest information on the cultivation of cot
ton, rice, tobacco, flax, hemp, hops, beets
tor sugar, Ac., Ac. Chapters nine to twelve
inclusive, treat of domestic animals, breeding,
raising, care, management, and feeding,
and particularly of all diseases of domestic
animals with plain, simple remedies.
No man who owns a single animal can
afford to be without the information con- j
tained in those four chapters. Chapters |
thirteen to eighteen treat of the cultivation of j
large and small fruits, showing how millions 1
of acres of now almost profiiless lands may i
be made to yield large and paying crops, how j
every farmer may make S2OO to S6OO per j
acre from apples or grapes. The young men j
who read these chapters and commence j
farming on these principles will not be the j
poor plodders their predecessors have been. !
Untold wealth is in store for those who catch J
the ideas and spirit of this book. Chapter '
nineteen treats of the planning and building j
of farm buildings. Chapter twenty of Market J
Gardening and Farmers' Gardens. Chapter '
twenty-one of various miscellaneous items, ;
as fences, farm laborers, forest trees, Ac.,
Ac. Chapter twenty two contains nearly j
three hundred choice receipts for cooking, j
preserving, Ac., and the last chapter gives
the symptoms and remedies for the ordinary
diseases of children and adnlts, with direc
tions for preserving the health, and other
matters of interest. We think we are justified
in saying that so much information of use to !
the farmer is not to be had for ten times the !
price anywhere else. The book, as the j
reader will notice from the description in our
paper, has one hundred and forty illustrations,
which we have neither time or space to
describe.
WE say buy this book if you wish to learn
the secrets ot Paying Farming.

AXD when Abraham and the people beheld
the wonderful cures which were produced by
this drink, Abraham said, "My children must
not suffer; give me thy drink to drink, and I
will give it a name."
And so Abraham drank, and said there was
nothing like it, even in Sangamon county ;
that it was bitter to the lips, but good for the
stomach ; and because there were bitter times
in fighting the masters of the plantations; it
shall be forevermore called PLANTATION BIT
TERS; and so it has been.
And the wonderful work which it has per
formed is witnessed at this day in every town,
parish, villiage and hamlet throughout all the
world.
And he said, "Let it be proclaimed through
out the length and breadth of the land, from
the valleys and mountain-tops, that all who
suffer from fevers, dyspepsia, weakness, loss
of appetite, nervous headache, and mental
despondancy, will find relief through the
PLASTATIO* BITTERS. Tbev add tone to the
stomach, and brilliancy to the mind, of which
I, O people, am a living example."
NEW PUBLICATION. —We have just received
from Messrs. Cos. WETHEBILLA CO., Phila
delphia, who have, during the past two years,
obtained the head rank amongst our adver
tising bouses, a new publication entitled
"The Advertisers' Index." It is neatlv got
ten np in duodecimo, and contains not only
a complete record of the Newspaper Press
of the Southern States, but information in
teresting and important lo all advertisers and
business men. This house, cn account of
their large contracts, are prepared to offer the
greatest inducements to business men to ad
vertise, especially in the best journals of the
South. Messrs. COE, WETHERILL A Co. fur
nish the "Index" on application, gratuitous
ly, and we advise the business public to em
brace the opportunity.
MrrCAU—lf you want insurance against
lire, stock companies are to be preferred.
Mutual companies never insure you, you in
sure them , for they can assess you to death to
make up their losses. At the Troy fire a
model New York State Mutual lost $12.">,0G0,
and levied an assessment of eighty-nine per
cent, on its premium notes, and then gave up
tbe ghost! Two of the largest, soundest and
healthiest companies, conducted on the
stock plan, are the -ETNA of Hartford, and
tbe NIAGARA of New York. These com
panies are located in States that have an In
surance Commissioner and they are bound
under oath to make a faithful exhibit of their
assets, which aggregate more than seven mil
lion dollars. A word to the wise is sufficient.

I.ct Common Sense Decide.
What is the rational mode of procedure in
cases of general debility and nervous pros
tration? Does not reason tell us that judicious
stimulation is required. To resort to violent
purgation iu such a case is as absurd as it
would be to bleed a starving man. Yet it is
done every day. Yes, this stupid and un
philosophical practice is continued in the
teeth of the great fact that physical weakness,
with all the nervous disturbances that ac
company it, is more certainly and rapidly re
lieved by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters than
by any other medicine at present known. It
is true that general debility is often attended
with torpidity or irregularity of the bowels,
and that this symptom must not be over
looked. But while the discharge of the waste
matter of the system is expedited or regu
lated, its rigor must be recruited. The Bit
ters do both. They combine aperient and
ami-bilious properties, with extraordinary
tonic power. Even while removing ob
structions from the bowels, they tone and in
vigorate those organs. Through the stomach,
upon which the great vegetable specific acts
directly, it gives a healthy and permanent im
petus to every enfeebled function. Digestion
is facilitated, the faltering circulation regu
lated, the blood reinforced with a new acces
sion of the alimentary principle, the nerves
braced, and all the dormant powers of the
system roused iuto healthy action; not
spasmodically, as would be the case if a mere
stimulant were administered, but for a con
tinuance. It is in this way that such ex
traordinary changes arc wrought in the con
dition of the feeble, emaciated and nervous
invalids by the use of this wonderful cor
rective, alterative and tonic. Let common
sense decide between such a preparation and
a prostrating cathartic supplemented by a
poisonous astringent like strychnine or qui
nia. lJanlm

A YER'S CATHARTIC PILLS,
-UA- FOR PURIFYING TIIE BLOOD,
Perhaps no one medicine is so universally re
quired by everybody as cathartic, n-.r was" evei
any before to universally adopted into use. in
every country and among ail clusses, as this mild
but efficient purgative PILL. The obvious rea
son it, that it is a more reliable and far more ef
fectual remedy than any other. Those who have
tried it, know that it cured them : those who havs
not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends,
and all know that what it does once it does al
ways—that it never fails through any fault ot
neglect of its composition. We have thousand!
upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable
cures of the following complaints, but such cures
are known in every neighborhood, and we reed
not pnblish them. Adapted to all ages and con -
ditions in all climates ; containing neither calo
mel or anv deleterious drug, they may be taken
with safety by anybody. Then sugar coatinc
preserves them ever fresh and makes tbem pleas
ant to take, while being purely vegetable no harm
can rise from their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful in luence on
the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimu
late it into healthy action-—remove the obstruc
tions of the stomach, bow's, liver, and other or
guns of the body, restoring their irregular action
to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist
such derangements as ara the iirst o-igin of dis
case.
Minute directions are given in the wrrpper on
the box. for tbe following complaints, which
these PILLS rapidly cure :
For DYSPEPSIA or INDIGESTION, LIST
LESSNESS, LANGUOR and LOSS OF APPE
TITE, they should be taken moderately to stim
ulate the stomach and restore its healthy .tone
and actior.
For LIVER COMPLAINT and its various
STinptoms. BILIOUS HEADACHE, SICK
HEACACIIE, JAUNDICE or GREEN SICK
NESS, BILIOUS COLIC A BILIOUS FEVERS,
they should be judiciously taken ."or each case, to
correct tbe diseased action or remove tie obstruc
tions wbicb cause ii.
For DYSENTERY or DIARRHOEA, but one
mild dose is generally required.
For RHEUM ATISM, GOUT, GRAVEL, PAL
PITATION OF THE HEART, PAIN IN TIIE
SIDE, BACK and LOINS, they shoJld l>e con
tinuously taken, a required, to cbno-c tbe dis
eased action of the sy-tem. With -och change
those complaints disappear.
For DROPSY and DROPSICAL SWELLINGS
they should be taken in large and frequent doses
to produce the effect of a dra tic purge.
For SUPPRESSION a la'ge dose should be ta
ken as it produces tbe desired effect by sympathy.
As a DINNER PILL, take one or two PILLS
to promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
AD occasional dose stimulates tbe stomach and
bowels into bealtby ai lion, restores tbe appetite,
and invigorates the system. Hence it is often
advantageous where no serious derangement ex
ists. One who feels tolerably well, often finds
that a dose of these Pills makes him feel decided
ly better, from their cleansing and renovating ef
fect on the digestive rpparatus.

DR. WISHART'S
PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL.
It is the vital principal of the Pine Tree,
ibtained by a peculiar process in the distilla

inrifies and enriches the blood, and expels
rom the system the corruption which scrofu
ar breeds on the lungs. It dissolves the
xtucus or phlegm which stops the air pas
iage of the lungs. Its healing principle acts
jpon the irritated surface of the lungs and
hroat, penetrating to each deceased part, re
ieving pain and subduing inflamation. It is
he result of years of study and experiment,
tnd it is offered to the afflicted with positive
assurance of its power to cure the following
iiseases, it the patient has not too long de
aved a resort to the means of core:—
Consumption of the Lungs, Cough Sore
Throat. Bronchitis, Liver Complaint,
Blind and Bleeding Piles.
Asthama, Whoop ■
