TILE GETTYSBURG RAILROAD, ITS
CONNEXIONS, PROSPECTS AND
VALUE.
AU the indications point to the early
completion of the Western. Maryland
Railroad to Hagerstown and Williams
port. At the latter point, it will inter
sect the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal,
and thus secure access to the vast
bituminous coal region of Allegany
county, Md. Coal operators and por
tions of the Baltimore public have long
been dissatisfied with the charges and
general policy of the Baltimore atld
Ohio Railroad Company, and that
community appear now fully ready to
assist in building and opening a new
and competing line of transportation.
lialtimore City has a fltrther stimulus
to press the Western Maryland road,
in the fact that only by completing it
can the City save the large investMent
already made in it. The interests
which are thus combined in favor of
the Western Maryltuid enterprise are
so strong that we hive no doubt the
necessary means will be raised to finish
it, at an early day.
This subject comes home -very near
to us. Our County is deeply interested
in it, as its result will be to give us the
use of bituminous coal, hitherto prac
tically denied, add will help to lower
the price of the anthracite, and will
give us the benefit of important addi
tional railroad connexions. For we
assume, beyond any doubt, that if the
Western Maryland road be made, the
Gettysburg road will be speedily ex
tended to the Mountain where it has
the right to connect with the Western
Maryland. This can be accomplished
with little expense, as the old State
road can be occupied almost the entire
distance, for most of which it is al
ready graded, and partially bridged.—
With this ddne, there will then be but
the line from New Oxford to York
wanting to complete a new interior
line from the Cities of New York and
Philadelphia to the coal fields of Mary
land. It is morally certain that the
enormous coal interests of those Cities
will eagerly grasp at this opportunity
to secure a short and cheap coal con
nexion, which they have long desired
but have never before been capable of
effecting with so slight cost.
Besides, there is no reason to doubt
that the Pennsylvania railroad, which
is the real owner of the Cumberland
Valley Railroad, will push au exten
sion of the latter from Hagerstown and
Williamsport down the Shenandoah—
thus Lapping the Virginia line of Im
provements and drawing the varied
products of that fertile region over the
new outlets to Northern Cities.
This would put our town upon a
through line of road, and give our com
munity the incalculable advantages of
numerous connexions, increased speed,
and enlarged facilities; and would
greatly assist in developing the re
sources of the county and increasing
its wealth.
By these circumstances, the value of
the existing charter of our Railroad
Company, and of the Railroad itself,
must be considered as much increased.
The point is no huger, what is the
money-value of the grading, the iron
and, the fixtures composing the road
bed ? but, what is the money-value of
all this and of the work already done
on the old State mad, and of the right
of connexion with other roads west of
us—all which are the property of the
Gettysburg Railroad Company. The
unfinished work on the old State road,
which could be used on the new line,
could not be built under a half million
dollars. Hitherto, this element has
not entered into the computation of
value, because until the present time
the probability of using this work has
been remote. Now, it is immediate,
and the value of it becomes a matter of
great importance.
In this view, we shall regret the pre
cipitate sale of the road, should this
occur. But we are aware that influ
ences foreign to our County and its
interests have been placed, by means
which it is not our province now to
esamine or criticise, in the ownership
of the majority of the stock ; and we
are not sure that it is now possible to
effect any delay. But we are satisfied
that the value of the road and its fran
chises,is double the $200,000 which has
ben frequently pronounced the max
imum price expected to be realized;
and that movements now.in progress
Will soon prove this Gettysburg Rail
raad property to be one of the most
Valuable and desirable now In market.

Gov. Ritner's faculties are impaired to
such an extent that it was only by the most
persistent effort in an interview I bad with
him the other day that I succeeded in bring
ing back his recollection to the events of
the past In vrtileli be played a leading part,
and in relation to which he .bas been so
much traduced. In answer to the first
question that I ventured to address to him,
he said : "Yes, I knew Thaddeus Stevens
well. When I was Governor he was a
member of the Legislature." But when I
adverted to the influence Mr. Stevens was
popularly supposed to have exerted over
him as the Executive, I found.it very diffi
cult to make my meaning plain , to him.—
Having come here on purpose to see him
That he might have an opportunity of giv
ing expression to his feelings in regard to
the departed statesman, now that Thaddeus
Stevens is dead, and his own long life near
its close, I was determined not to go away
unsatisfied. •
"People used to call Mr. Stevens your
oracle, and the keeper of your conscience,
Mr. Ritner," I said, "and some even went
so far as to declare that be compelled you
to appoint a Carel Commissioner in
1838." By repeating the question in vari
ous forms, even putting it in the shape of a
direct charge that Stevens had appointed
himself to office while Ritner was Govern
or, lat length succeeded in getting a dis
tinct answer, which was confirmed by his
children, as the declarations of his enure
retirement.
"Stevens and I often differed," he said,
"and when we could not agree I always had
my own way. When I appointed him a
Canal Commissioner I wanted a man of in
flexible will and indomitable energy, and I
thought he was such a man." That this is
the whole story in relation to the "oracle"
business I doubt not, and that the old
"Pennsylvania Dutch" Governer j udges Mr.
Stevens correctly cannot be disputed.
Joseph Ritner is a true type of the Penn
sylvania Dutchman of the past generation
—a race as worthy as it has been niisrepre•
seated- Conventional politeness is-not a
trait of his or of theirs, but the genuine
heartiness which allows you to help your
self at meals provides an ample store from
which to follow the injunction of the host
to his guests, "Help yourselves."- I dined
with this old man, and found all the social
customs of his family to correspond with
those of the neighboring fanners round
about him. There seemed to be no linger
ing echoes of Executive dinners resounding
about his household, and the republican
simplicity and virtue of his day were in
nothing more apparent than in this, unless
they were betrayed by a remark of his un
married daughter: "When father was a
candidate for office be fbund it dreadfully
expensive, his payments for postage being
as-much as $4 a week." Apropos of his
daughters, is al old story that. used to be
told at the Governor's expense : "Ma,"
said one of these young ladies, soon after
Mn. Rinaer's election to the Gubernatorial
position, "will we all be Governors now ?"
"so," answered the mother, "only pap and
me."
In answer to a question in relation to his
age, Mr, Ritner said he was 90 years old.—
When I observed the merry and self-con
scious twinkle in the old man's eye as ho
told me this, I could not but smile at the
pride that length of days begets. Joseph
Ritner was born near the city of Reading,
in Berks county, March 25, 1790. He re
ceived no education in youth, except six
months' instruction at a private school of
very mean pretensions. Yet he rose to the
highest offices in the State.
The family of Gov. Ritner is in every way
a most simple and unaffected one. His son
Jacob is a farmer worth nearly $100;000,
which he made by steady but unassisted la
bor, avoiding speculation and all extraneous
methods of amassing wealth. On the other
hand, Gov. nitner himself never acquired
much property.. He removed from serks
to Cumberland county when a mere lad,
and hired himself to a farmer, with whom
he lived until he married. At the time of
his marriage he was scarcely more than
twenty years old. A few years afterward
he emigrated to Westmoreland and then to
Washington county, in the western part of
the State.. In 1820, he was nomiumed by
the Whig party as a candidate for the State
Legislature, and served in that body for
seven successive years, occupying, during
his last two terms, the position of Speaker
of the House. He illustrated his political
simplicity to me in a very peculiar manner,
attributing his popularity to a cause that
would not readily occur to a politician of
the present day. "When people came into
the House," he said, "they always saw me,
and asked 'Who is that man in the chair? ,
`That is Mr. Ritner, our Speaker.'" Gov.
}Liner tells another little anecdote not less
illpstrative of his political simplicity. On
the evening of the day when be was first
nominated for the Legislature his wife told
him, after they had retired, that their neigh
bor, the miller, was going to Taylorstown
the next day to oppose him. "Quit sob
bing, my dear," he answered, "I will go,
too, about 10 o'clock, and if he abuses mo I
will lick him."
In 1828 Mr. Rimer was defeated as the
Whig candidate for the State Senate, and
the next year he was,for the first time the
Anti-Masonic candidate for Governor. Un
successful in that year, he was also defeated
in 1832, but was elected over Gov. Wolf in
1835. In 1838, he was defeated by Gov.
Porter, though he always considered him
self defrauded of his re-election.
After his retirement trom the Executive
chair—there was no Executive mansion at
Harrisburg at that time, and the Governor
lived in his own hired Lome—Gov, Ritner
bought a farm in Cumberland county and
resumed the occupation of his younger days.
Here he lived in the peaceful pursuits of
husbandry uatil the death of his wife and
his own years admonished him to seek a
home with his children. In 1840 he sought
the office of Collector of the Port of Phila
delphia from President Harrison, but was
appointed Treasurer of the Mint in that city
by President Tyler. He held the office a
few months only owing to the failure of his
confirmation in the Senate. During the
last .30 years Gov. Ritner has not hold of
fice. He has always taken great interest in
politica, however and his last vote was for
President Grant.
Gov, Ritner may not be a great man, and
he is certainly not a very learned man, but
be deserves especial honor in this, that he
raised himself from ignorance and obscurity
to the highest offices in the State. And his
Mfonnation on many subjects would do no
discrsdif to men of much greater preten
sions. Even in Pennsylvania he has never
been thoroughly understood. While a
member of the Rouse of Representatives be
made many speeches, and his speeches were
always able—so able, in fact, that he was
feared by his opponents on account of his
strong and straightforward denunciations of
the wrong. In 1836 the school law, which
had passed through a fiery ordeal the pre
ceding yeir was revised so as to better adapt
it to the wants of the people, and Gov. Eis
ner, who had been the long and consistent
friend of education, declared his purpose
to see the law enforced, In spite of the 9P
position of its tumuli" and it was enforced.

THE course of Democracy, like that
of true love, never runs smooth. Its
pathway is beset with all manner of
troubles, and its leaders - have a' s , :rious
task in trying to Make their followers
"come to time" on every occasion.—
One of the latest causes of their solici
tude has been the election of a Super
intendent of Common Schools in this
comity. The defeat of their favorite,
Mr. SHEELY, it will be remembered,
brought forth from our neighbr of the
Compiler a most dismal wall, which, it
seems, has penetrated even the most
obscure parts of the distressed political
camp` and is eliciting the most affect
ing sympathetic responses, The Han
over Citizen, not to be behind in the
condolence line, offers its tribute.—
"Mr. Wnwr," says the Cltizcn, is not
only "a Republican," bat is one of
"the most extreme type," and it "can
not comprehend why the Democrats of
Adams allowed Mr. SHEELY to be de
feated in the manner they did." But
the Citizen is not only concerned shoo'
the present. It has also fearful r 4.:,
bodings of the future. "Befi..,_ .Ir.
WERT'S time expires," it is "I—sltire
the Democrats of Adams will 'egret
their indifference as indicated in this .
Instance." As no other class of people
will bare any reason to "regret" the
election of Mr. WERT, we are really
sorry for the Democracy. Theirs is a
truly deplorable condition ; but we
venture to suggest that the Citizen
might have spared their lacerated feel
ings, and not reprimanded them in
such an unmerciful style.
TH Copperhead papers are trying "to
crow" over the result of the late Judi
cial election in Michigan. This effort
shows to what low straits they are re
duced, and how thankful they are for
"small favors." The Republican ma

was 30,819, the vote having been :
Cooley, Rep.,..
Hughes, Dem.,
Rep. majority
We submit, that polling a little over
one-third of the total vote, does not
constitute good ground for a claim of a
great Victory !

!War - in looking around lid

and centres of attraction---every body is
familiar, and I need not speak of them.—
Pike city, which ordinarily is a seething po
litiCtakcauldrou, is just now comparatively
dull. The capitol building is deserted, the
carpeting ist the Senate and House chambers
torn up, furniture in disorder, and a singu
lar quiet pervades its vast corridors, except
as it is broken by the footsteps of an occa
sional visitor. The crowd of politicians
and office seekers who usually throng the
streets during the sessions of C ingress are
not to be seen. One misses the bustle and
confusion which usually characterize the
hotels, while the President and Heals of
Department arc enjoying comparative im
munity from the persistent demands of
place-seekers.
The War for the suppression of the Re
bellion; however, which has been a won
derful educator in the Republic, overturn
ing old ideas and introducing new eras, has
made its impression, on the city of Wash
iugton, and its effects arc patent to the
occasional visitor in the hum of business
activity heard on all sides. From the or
ganization of the Government down to 1891,
the Slave Power was dominant in the capi
tal of the Republic and ruled its social life
as despotically as it ruled the councils of
the nation. It brought with it Southern
ideas and Southern habits—a negation of
toil and the enjoyment of luxurious indo
lence. Largely a city of strangers and
temporary, residents, dependent for its
business upon the money expended during
she ew months of official life, with a social
ostracism repulsive to intelligent labor and
wanly industry, for long years it was emi
nently a dronish city, distinguished mainly
for its "magnificent distances" and bewild
ering interlacing of streets. With the
breaking down of the Slave Oligarchy has
come a marked change. The universal
Yankee, no longer tabooed by despotic and
perverted social laws, has come in—"Yan
keeised" the city, and it is rapidly assum
ing the aspect of a great Metropolis, with
the badges of active and increasing indus
try patent to the eye and ear.
Just at present, the politicians are busily
at work preparing for the Municipal strug
gle in June. Manhood Suffrage is recog
nized here under Congressional enactment,
and the colored vote is a power. It has
been almost unanimously Republican, but
the Democratic politicians are working
hard to secure enough or it to control the
election. They have succeeded in buying
over some few active colored men, of easy
virtue, who are put forward at the ward
meetings as decoys for others. It would
be a queer sight for one of our Adams
county Democrats, thoroughly indoctrinated
with the "shin-bone" philosophy, to step
into one of the Democratic ward meetings,
held nightly, and see these "niggers,"
black as the ace of spades, taken cordially
by the hand by Democratic politicians, and a
motley audience of white and black Demo
crats sitting lovingly together and listening
patiently alike to white and black Demo
cratic orators! Verily, the War has been a
wonderful educator, and our Adams county
Democracy had better see to it, for this
kind of political heterodoxy will make
short work of the dogma that "this is a
white man's government."

The General Synod of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church or the United States has
been in session here during the past week,
and has drawn together us delegates or vis
itors most of the representative men of the
church. Among those on the ground I no
tice Drs. Schmncker, Brown, Hay, and
Valentine, Professors Stosver and Baugher
and Rev. Breidenbaugh, of Gettysburg;
also Revs. Allemau and Lane of Littles
town, Blackwelder of York Springs, Par
' sons of Hanover, and Johnston of Emmits
burg. Dr. Pohlman, of Albany, N. Y.,
presides, and makes, what is rare among
Ministers, a capital presiding officer. The
business of Synod, although important, has
special interest for the Lutheran Church.—
On Saturday the Synod, numbering nearly
300 members and visitors, made an official
visit to the President. They were received
in the East Room, the President being
dressed in a suit of black, with white vest,
holding a silk hat in his kit hand while
with his right he took each one by the hand
as they were successively introduced by
Rev. Dr. Butler. His whole appearance
was that of a quiet, modest, refined gentle
man, whose face is a problem to all familiar
with his colossal reputation. I was sur
prised to find him look so pale, with noth
ing to indicate the daring and courage re
quisite in the gigantic military movements
through which Lis name has become im
mortal. The exchange of camp life for the
duties of the civilian, has transformed the
soldier into the citizen, and as such he
symbolizes the wonderful development of
our Republican system. I find among the
men of all parties with reference to Presi
dent Grant, much of that same feeling
which so strengthened President Lincoln—
large confidence in the essential honesty of
the man and his purpose in good faith to'
administer the Government in the interest
of the people and for the people.
Leaving the White House, with several
friends, I took advantage of the kind offer
of Rev. Dr. Morris, of Baltimore, who is
au fait in all manner of scientific things,
to conduct us through the National Obser
vatory. Reaching the building we were
fortunate enough to meet with Prof. New
comb, an intimate friend of Dr. Morris,
who very courteously accompanied us
through the Observatory, explaining the
use of the various instruments, modes of
taking observations, &c. From this ob
servatory the correct time is signalled
every day at noon, by the hoisting of a
large ball to the-top of the pole, a touch of
one of the keys in litu instrument at the
same moment communicating it to the var
lona stations in the city and as far South as
Galveston, Texas. By-the-way, Prof. New
comb, although he has acquired rare dis
tinction in the astronomical woad, is a
young man of probably 80 years of age,
and ono of the most quiet, modest, unob
trusive gentlemen imaginable—just such an
address as best ennobles true merit. A.
year or two ago, a problem was announced
from the Royal Observatory of England to
the scientific world, to be solved within a
year, Involving a precise determination of
the distance of the Sun from the earth.—
Prof. Newcomb enjoys the enviable honor
of having solved the problem, and that
within a lbw months; and his calculations
are now accepted by all astronomers as the
most reliable yet obtained ! he making the
distance some 270,000 miles less than form
er theories made it.

1 8 *moon the Members of Dr. But
ler/Oa ChettOr gm, up as•Mtcursion to Mount
terneu,Mlmot-three iguidred . lickets being
'fisued to members of the Lutheran Bjmod,
and ladies and gentlemen of the congrega
tion. I had the privilege of accompanying
the party, and Lave just returned. The
scene at the vault wherein repose the re
mains of Washington, was deeply interest
ing. The entire party assembled in front
of the vault, and, with uncovered heads,
united in singing the national hymn, "My
country 'tis of thee," when Rev. -Dr. Zie
gler offered a fervent prayer, followed by
the singing of "Praise God from whom all
blessings flow," and r< benediction by Rev.
Dr. Pohlman. The excursionists then spent,
an hour in looking at the grounds and man
sion. The I,•otindsare in good order and
command a fine view of the Potomac. The
mansion also, in externals, is in good re
pair. But as I crossed the threshhold and
passed through the desolate halls and
rooms, I felt sad that this consecrated spot
should be so little cared for. The empty
rooms, with here and there a relic of the
illustrious man who long years ago wel
comed to Its halls the noble and the good,
—the old tinnily piano—the key of the
Biotite presented to Washington by Lafay
ette—with some trifling memorials are all
that the visitor sees. Even the little low
room on the second floor In which Washing
ton died, and which ought at least to have
been sacredly cared for, presented the same
desolate appeamce, with rubbish scattered
about in abundance. As I stood in the
large Dining Rosin, now empty and desti
tute of furniture, I could not help but
think of the illustrious men of the Revolu
tionary period, who hero gathered around
the festive board. One end of the mansion
is occupied by the Regent of the Ladies
Mount Vernon Association, and all acces s
to it denied to the vulgar crowd. In the
upper chambers, I noticed indications of
preparations to repair the walls and stair
way. Ido not know whoSe fault it is that
the. mansion is in this disordered condition,
or what has become of the immense sumsof
money contributed for the purchase and
care of the property. Bat it is a burning
shame that this hallowed mansion, almost
within sight of the national capitol, should
lie thus neglected. There is a great wrong
somewhere, and I left the grounds with
saddened feelings. •
But it is time to close. The excursion ists
returned to the city at a late hour, and
partook of a collation that had been kindly
prepared for them by the ladies of Dr. But
ler's congregation. D. A. B.
IPVESTERN MARYLAND RAILROAD
Work on this road has been practically
suspended for some time; bat active steps
have been taken, looking to its completion.
A Committee of the Councils of Baltimore
have been recently over the line, and have
reported an ordinance instructing the City
Register and Commissioners of Finance to
borrow, in the name of the city, one mil
lion dollars until May, 1870, or such other
time as they may deem expedient, and to
pledge as security the requisite number of
the shares of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road owned by the city. The money is to
be invested in the bonds of the Western
Maryland Railroad Company, and secured
by a mortgage, which shall come next in
priority to those already executed by the
company, it to give a guarantee that the
money shall be expended only in construct
ing and equipping the road to Williamsport.
At the next session of the General Assem
bly the Mayor shall apply for the passage
of an act to submit to the voters of Balti
more the propriety of the endorsement of
the bonds of the Western Maryland Rail
road Company, to be secured by mortgage,
to an amount sulliziient to return the luau.
If the Legislature shall pass the act, and' a
majority of the votes cast at the election
shall be in favor of the endorsement of the
bonds, the Register shall endome the bonds,
dispose of them and apply the proceeds to
the payment of the loan. If the Legisla
ture shall refuse to pass the act, or if a
majority of the votes cast at the election be
in opposition to the endorsement, the Reg
ister and Commissioners of Finance shall
dispose of so much of the said capital stock
as may be required to pay the loan. If the
authority to endorse the bonds be obtained,
and the proceeds of the sales of bonds al
ready in the hands of the city shall not be
sufficient to return the money to be bur
rowed as before provided, with the interest
thereon, the Company shall furnish to the
Register such additional amount of the
bands as will, when endorsed, pay the de
ficieucy. The last section provides that the
investment shall not be made until a major
' ity in value of the stockholders of the road
shall accept the terms of the ordinance and
pledge that at the next session of the Leg
islature application shall be made for such
modification of its charter as will give the
' city of Baltimore such an additional num
ber of Directors as will give to it a majority
of oue member in the Board of Directors.
With this ordinance adopted, as it appears
likely to be, the completion of the road
would be beyond peradventure.
The total receipts of the Company from
the sale of bonds were $1,197,115.81 ; from
Stock, $62.810.67—t0tal $1,259,926.45. Of
this, $958,198.11 have been spent in con
structing the road. The total liabilities of
the Company are $2,632,527.42; total as
sets *388,492.89; liabilities overassets $2,-
299,034.53. The unpaid amount due by
subscribers for the extension of the road is
expected to realize from $50,000 to $60,-
000, which will go towards building the
road.
TIM court-martial upon the charges made
against General Dyer, Chief of Ordnance,
by a joint committee of Congress, which
has been sitting 112 Washington since
November, has published its findings in the
case. The court vindicated him from all
of the accusations concerning projectiles,
arms, wilful suppression of the record of
artillery tests, etc., and in fact declared
Min innocent of all the charges made
willing him. Presiderit Grant has approved
the findings of the Court.
News from Georgia brings accounts of
the murder of another man, Mr. Stone, one
of the members who was expelled by the
Georgia Legislature. This makes four with
in the past six months, and it is a singular
coincidence that all were Republicans. Of
course that had nothing to do in bringing
about their unhappy fate, for is it not al
most daily dinned into our ears by Demo
cratic journals that political opinions are
as flee to be indulged in Georgia as any
where else in the universe ?

Massus. EDITORS :—.I would not encumber
your valuable columns in reply to your con
respondent,t`lmprovement, if he had known
any thing of what he delivered himself of
in your last issue. The statement made is
that he knows five or six of the same kind
of Gravel Roofs put on in New Oxford.—
He refers to Mr. J. S. Gitt, the well-known
Engineer and a gentleman of veracity. I
will give you Mr. Gitt's own statement, so
that the parties whom it was the intention
of "Improvement" to deceive may judge of
his knowledge of Roofs or his veracity as a
correspondent. Mr. J. S. Gitt states that
the Gravel Roof put on for him was com
mon Gas Tar and Gravel and without heat
ing, whereas the Roofs put on the Lithia
Hotel buildings by Mr. W. A. Ray are
with cement manufactured of Gas Tar, Ros
in, Arsenic, tuslacked Lime, Asphaltum
and Linseed Oil, with which the Felt is
thoroughly coded while hot and the gravel
thoroughly dryed and heated, which forms
a concrete impervious to heat or water. I
leave to your readers to judge as to the
truth of "Improvement's" statement that
the Hotel Roof was like Mr. Gitt's.
Mr. "Improvement," I regret the building
committee did not anticipate the necessity
of obliging you by the erection ofa Shower

you become a guest of the Hotel. But as

SEVENTEENTH ANNUAL RE
PORT OF THE HANOVER BRA SCH
RA ILROA D.—During last year, the earn
ings, of the road were as follows:
from freight
Total receipts, $76 .659. E;
Total operating expenses, de
ducting material on hand in ex
cess of last year, 43.113.0
Balance,
Miring the year, $11.494.50 were paid In
dividends , $3.76-1 were paid for a new pas
sen4er c.tr, and $4OO were paid ou the $20.-
000 sul.seription to the static of the Fred
erick and Pennsylvania Lino R. R. Co.
During ita existence, the road, which
ha-4 a capital of sllG.ti3o, earned 416.1.81.-
99.
The earnings the last year, aro $4,273 in
cess of the previous year. The balance on
hand, April I, 18 , 39, was $16.024,33, which
will be applied to the May dividend, and
the payment of the subscription aforesaid.
Wo annex the closing paragraphs:
There were carried over the road during
the year 24,588 through and 10,068 local
passengers, against 4,115 through and
8.828 local of the previous year.
The extensive Hotel accommodations
which aro being provided for the reception
of visitors to the Battle-field and Kataly
sine Springs at Gettysburg, will doubtless
increase the passenger travel during the
Summer months.
The increase in the transportation of
iron ore has gone forward steadily until it
has become the leading article of tonnage.
With railroad facilities to the extensive
Hematite Ore Banks in Bachman's Valley,
a large acquisition to the tonnage over this
road would be guaranteed. It would be
sides develope an important Lime trade,
and open up an extensive section or fine
timber land. A "moderate subscription"
to the Bachman's Valley road is recom
mended.

SPECIAL NOTICE.
SCILENCK'S I'UL3IONIC
Seaweed Tonlc and Mandrake Pills, will cure Con.
■umption, Liver C. mplalrot, and Dyspepsi if taken
according to dimtions. They are nil three to be ta•
ken at the same time, They cleanse the stomach, re
lax the live:, and pot It to work; then the appetite
becomes good; tbet..l digests and ntakeiimeil blool;
the patient begins to grow In flesh ; the di, ased mat
ter ripens in the lunge, and the patient the
disease and gets wt.ll. This is tho only Way to cure
C01111111:13 ptiod.
To these three medicines Jr.f J. 11. Febenck, of
PhiladelpiaL, nues his unrivalled somas in the treat
ment of pulmonary consumption. The I l ultn , Tl it
Byrn/ ripens the morbid matter In the lungs, nature
throws it off by an e.t.ty expectoration, for when the
phlegm or matter is ripe, a slight ciuith will thr,w it
off, and the patient has root and the lunge begin to
heal.
To do this, the Fesweed Tonic and Mandrake Pill:,
moot be freely used to cleente the nomad, end liter,
ao that the I'•,lm„uic :33 rup aol the fwd will make
good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, re
moving all obstructions, relax the ducts of the
bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver ho
relieved: the stools will shoe, what the Pills can do;
nothing has ever been invented except calomel (a
deadly poison which is very dangerous to use unless
with great rare), that will unlock the gall-bladder
acid start the secretions of the liver like Schenck's
Mandrake Pills.
Liter Complaint It an of thy must pr,Enin , nt
canst, of Consumption.
Schenck's i , eawee I Tonic is a tent le stiinni lilt :.id
alterative, and the alkali in the Seaweesi, which this
preparation is made of, assists the stomach to throw
out the gastric juice to dienolve the food with the
Pei:motile Syrup, and it in math , io to g,,j bloodwith.
out fermentation nrin the slum kch.
The great rranon why plfysicians do not cure con
sumption Is, they try to do too much; they give me,
dicine to stop the cough. to stop chills, to stop niche
sweats,bectic fever, and Lp so deiuc they d.ji aeige the
whole dige•tive powers, loc:iing up the • -creti
and eventually the patient sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his troatinent, does not try to stop
a cough, night sweats. chills, or fever. Reruerve the
cause, and they will all stt,p of their own accord.—
No one can be cured of Conernmption, Liver ecnt
plaint, Dyspep o vb,C.starrL, earth, r. Ulcerated Throat,
unless the liver and et,. 'ch. are made healthy.
If a person ba.s courompti.pn, of COL.'S.° the longs in
SOW, way are diseased, either tubercle', abscesses,
ba,achial pleura iodheolon, or the longs are
a mass of iLa]..,mmAjj.,o and rail decaying. Insept
cases what must be done? It to not only the lungs
that are wetting, hat it it the wtmle body. The
stomach and liverhave lot their power to nitkro hdod
out of food. Now the only channels to take Schenck's
three medicines, which will bring up a tone to the
stomach, the patient will begin to want food, it will
digest easily and make good blood; then the patient
hegius to gain in II eish. and as soon as the Ludy begins
to grow, the lungs commence to heal up, and the 0-
tieut gets aeshy and well. This Is the only way to
mare Oonsomptlen,
$A.237.19
When there% no lung diaease, and only Liver Com
plaint and Dyspepsia, Sehenck's Seaweed Toulc and
Mandrake Pills are autacient without the Pulmonic
hyrup. Take the Mandrake Pills freely in all bilious
complaints, as they are perfectly harmless.
Dr. Schenck, who luta enjoyed uninterrupted b catch

A GREAT REMEDY
TrIP.OAT AND LUNG DISEASES.
Dr. Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cordial
It is the vital principle of the Pine Tree, obtained
bye peculiar progress in the distillation of the tar,
by which its highest medical properties are retained.
It is the only safeguard and reliable remedy which
has ever been prepared from the juice of the Pica
Tree.
It invigorates the digeetlee organs aud reiterrs the
appetite.
It strengthens the debilitated eyatettb
It purities and eurichen the blood, and expels from
the system the ocaroptiou which scrofula breeds on
the lungs.
It dissolves the mucus or phlegm which stops the
alr•passagee of the lungs.
Its healing principle acts upon the Irritated eurfaoe
of the lunge and throat, penetrating to each diseased
part, relieving pain and solidolog inflammation.
It is the result of yearn of study and experiment,
and it is offered to the afflicted, with the positive as—
surance of its power to ogre UN) following dissasts, if
the patient has not too long delayed a resort to the
means of care:—
Coornaptlon of the Lunge, Cough, Sore Throat and
Breast, Bronchitis, Lirer Complaint, Blind and Bleed
ing Piles, Asthma, Whooping Cough, Dip Iberia, he.
We are often asked why are not other remedies in
the market for Consumption, Coughs, Cold; and
other Pulmonary affections equal to Le. L.

Ist. It cars, nut by itoppingcough, bqt by 1 , 00•61}.
log and aasiatiog =torn to throw off the unhealthy
matter collected about the tlvoat and bronchial tubes,
causing irritation and cough.
2nd. 3loot Throat and Lang Remedied are cappus e d
of anodynes, which allay the cough for awhile, but
by their conatringiag effects, the 11 lame become harden

are preferable, because they remove the cause of
irritation of the mucous membrane aad bronchial
tube's, Midst the lunge to act sad throw off the un
healthy secretions, and purify the blood, thus acieu
tifically making the cure perfect.
Dr. Wiehart has on file at his office hundred/1 and
