Mr.On Thursday evening last, we were

will please accept our thanks.
ANEW VEGETABLE.—Miss Ada Love pre
sented us with a new kind of egg-plant--
when cooked it was very easy to take. Couldn't
'save it for the fair. Our thanks for the pres
ent.
LARGE APPLES.—On Monday last, Mr. Geo.
Hearn, of Walker, left with us several very
fine apples, which were immediately handed
ever to our cook, to be prepared for the table
in the shape of apple dumplings. Our thanks.
FINE FRITIT.—Theo. 11. Cremer, Esq., on
Thursday last presented us with four speci
mens of the early peach, from trees in his
garden. They were the first we have seen in
these diggins. He has our thanks.
LARGE POTATOES.-Mr. Thos : McCallan, of
Little Walker, sent to our office on Thursday
last, a peck of the finest potatoes we have
seen for many a day. We hope he may have
a tremendous crop of the same kind, to ac
commodate "snake-feeders" and his numer
ous friends. "Walker" has our thanks.
CUCUMBERS.—The following we find in an
exchange " When a cucumber is taken from
the vines, let it be cut with a knife, leaving
about the eighth of an inch of the cucumber
on the stem; then slit the stem with a knife
from its end to the vine, leaving a small por
tion of the cucumber on each division, and
on each separate slit there will be a new cu
cumber as large as the first. Those wishing
to raise large quantities of this article for
pickles, will do well to try the experiment."
I14r• On Sunday last, we had the pleasure
of listening to a discourse delivered in the
Methodist Church, cf this place, by our young
friend, Rev. James Clarke, of Birmingham.
It was an eloquent effort, and reflects great
credit upon the speaker. We wish him suc
cess in his new calling,.and hope he may be
the instrument in the hands of God, of bring
ing many souls to repentance.
TIIE AGRICULTURAL FAIR.--Already we hear
of great preparation making for a proper dis
play at our Fair, which is to commence in
October—and to continue three days. Every
farmer and mechanic, and all others should
bring something for exhibition. All the can
didates for off Lee will be in the -ring, if not
run down before that time.
Pic Nic.—Some of our gals and boys had
a "high old time" on Saturday last, up at
the Cottage Grove. We did not attend, as
we had made previous arrangements to go to
the - Ridges, but are informed that a more
pleasant party never congregated together for
the purpose of enjoying themselves, than the
one on Saturday last.
FRESH OYSTERS.-111r. Kennedy M. King
is receiving fresh oysters from Baltimore
every day, which he serves up at his saloon
in Long's new building, under Gutman's
Clothing Storc. Give him a call.
REFREsuING.—The showers we were blest
with last week. Our farmers were beginning
to complain on account of the dry weather.—
We are informed the corn and potatoes suf
fered considerable from the incessant drouth.
We hope, however, the rains of last week has
revived them to a considerable extent.
SUNDAY SCITOOLS.-Hym u Books, Anni
versary and Sunday School Music Books, the
Child's Scilpture Question Books, Bibles and
Testaments, Record Books, Class Books,

BLAIR COUNTY.—The Democratic Conven
tion of this county last week formally brought
forward" our worthy townsman, Col. Cress
well, for Governor; and whilst we should not
fail to labor for his defeat, if nominated, we
are free to say the Democracy will not read
ily find a better candidate ; and that if any
Democrat is to have the place next term, we
shall Ate gratified to see the Colonel that
lucky fellow. The Convention presented his
name without a dissenting voice.—Register.
BEr Judge Taylor, of Huntingdon, we are
authorized to say, has been invited to deliver
the Address before our Blair County Agricul
tural Society at its approaching Fair, and
has accepted the invitation, and may be ex
pected to be present accordingly. We risk
nothing in saying the address will be an able
and instructive one, and that every farmer,
gardener, housewife, and good citizen of the
county, who can at all make it convenient,
will do well to be in attendance and hear it.
We congratulate the Managers upon their
excellent choice of a Speaker for the occa-
Xer-The Horse Thief Detecting Company,
of Williamsburg, offer the round reward of
$5OO fur the arrest and conviction of the
thief who stole Mr. Suively's horse in that
neighborhood on the night of the 29th ult.,
together with the recovery of the horse.—
The Company is composed of " solid" men,
who are good for the money, and this big re
ward will be likely to bring the rogue to jus
tice. The horse stolen was a dark dun, with
black main and tail, and a black stripe along
the back, and between three and four years
old. —Register.

A VOICM FROM VIRGINIA.
Dr. &U, S. Lrence was in Baltimore in April, 1854,
and from a paper I received of yours was induced to buy a
box of your Pills, recommended as a sovereign cure for the
Epileptic Fits. At that time one of my servants had been
[acted with fits about twelve years. When reaching
home, I commenced with the pills according to directions.
Ido not think she has had once since. My wife, thoukh,
is somewhat induced to believe sho may have had one only.
Enclosed you will find five dollars, for which yen will
please forward me two boxes. I suppose you can forward
them by mail. Your compliance will oblige me. Yours
respectfully.. M. P. SLEDGE.
Dr. haute's Epileptic Pills are also a sovereign remedy for
every mortification of nervous diseases. The nervous suf
ferer whether tormented by the acute, physical agony of
neuralgia., ticdoloreux, or ordinary headache, afflicted with
vague terrors, weakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that terrible las
situde which proceeds from a lack of nervous energy, or
experiencing any other pain of disability arising from the
unnatural condition of the wonderful machinery which
connects every member with the sunrce of sensation, mo
tion and thought—derives immediate front the use
of those pills, which at once calms, invigorates, and regu
lates the shattered nervous organization.
Sent to any part of the country by mail, free of postage.

THE SALA.ILLVDER SAFES OF PHILADELPHIA
AGAL.V.32' THE WORLD.
EVANS & WATSON
Have had the surest demonstration in the following cer
tificate that their manufacture of Salamander Safes has at
length fully warranted the representations which have
boon made of them as rendering an undoubted security
against the terrific clement:
Philadelphia, April 12th 1850.
Messrs. EVANS & WATSON—Gentlemen—lt affords us the
highest satisfaction to state to you, that owing to the very
protective qualities of two of the Salamander Safes which
we purchased of you some few months since, we saved a
large portion of our jewelry. ar.d all our books, papers, &c.,
exposed to the calamitous fire in Itanstead Place, on the
morning of the 11th instant.
When we reflect that these Safes were located in the
fourth story of the building we occupied. and that they
fell subsequently into a heap of burning ruins, where the
vast concentration of heat caused the brass plates to melt,
we cannot but regard the preservation of their valuable
contents as most convincing proof of the great security
afforded by your Safes.
We shall take much pleasure in recommending them to
men of business as a sure reliance against fire.

YkEDICAL SCIENCE
The history of "lIOOFLAND'S GERMAN BIT-
E1R. , ," the most remarkable medicine of the day, and
the many cures that have been performed with it in cases
of LIVER COMPLAINT, DYSPEPSIA, NERVOUS DE
BILITY, and diseases arising from a disordered liver or
stomach. place it among the most astonishing discoveries
that have taken place in the medical world. The diseases
to which these Bitters are applicable are so universal, that
there are but few of our friends who may not test their
virtues in their own %mines or circle of acquaintances,
and prove to their own satisfaction that there is at least
one remedy among the many advertised medicines, deser
ving the public commendation. It is a Met that. in the
minds of many Petrone, a prejudice exists against what
are Called Patent Medicines; but why should this prevent
you resorting to an article that has such an at ray of tes
timony to support it as llontland's German Bitters? Phy
sicians prescribe it, Why should you discard it? Judges,
usually considered men of talent, have and do use it in
their own families. Why should you reject it? Clergy
men, and those the most eminent, take it; why should
not, ou Let not your prejudice usurp your reason, to
the everlasting injury of your health; if you are sick, and
require a medicine, try these Bitters.
These Bitters are prepared and sold by Dr. C. 3f, Jack
son, No. 41S Arch street, Philadelphia. in., and by drug
gists and storekeepers in every 'WWII and village in tho
United States, Canadas, West Indies. and South America,
at 75 cents per bottle. See that the signature of C. M.
Jackson is on the wrapper of each bottle
