The soldiers at first iero reason ably well supplied with arms uni accoutrements, but the rough service ofthe mountain districts soon seriously Jstnagcd their efficiency, and the fire irms could not be repaired for want of gunsmiths* Speaking of Col. Armstrong, Dr. Duf §ehl eays: “It fell to the lot of the infant own of Carlisle—but five years old—to urnish a noble hero, whose name became tear to the heartsof the American people, im | whose zeal and courage, firing the pirils and dire-ting the.daring of the ieemen of Cumberland county, accora* ilisbeil at Kitlannlng one of the mos.t pleiulid deeds of retaliation which em jl'lslies the pages of American history, ,r i whs wisely determined that nothing fouhl end the Indian troubles so soon as isudden descent into the very heart of btilmliun country and an indiscriminate ■laughter of the inhabitants. This.was. liesHvage mode of warfare, anti the dread Idliiw of an eye for an eye was invoked n thelnterests of humanity and clvill alion. Shortly before his retirement miu office, Gov, Morris, iu concert with >l, Armstrong, planned an expedition igainait the Indian town of Kittamiing, id the Allegheny river, twenty- five miles ibove Pittsburg—the stronghold of Shin jas ami Capt. Jacobs, whence they issued id their murderous raids upon the while ettlemouts. The expedition consisted if three hundred men, under Colonel irmstrong, and embraced portions of lia own company, and the companies of tyttains-Huiullton, Mercer, Armstrongs iVimi, Potter and St«el—the latter com )3uy composed of levies from each of the lihera. Special instructions were issued ofcdiuluctthe movement with the utmost eciecy.and the companies were directed 0 rendezvous at Fort Shirley, which lood on ari elevated piece of ground, rhere the female seminary stands, in the orough of Sblrleysburg, iu Huntingdon ouuly. Its locution was uear the 1 path siedby Indians and traders to and from he Ohio, which was the.moat accessible oillo into, the Indian country.. In a liter from. Colonel Armstrong, f lh?li at .’irlisle. to Gov. Morris, under date of lugust 20,1750, ho -says : “To-morrow, loti willing, the men'march from Mo- Swell's to Fort Shirley, and this after loon some part of. ray own company, rlih the provisions here, seta out for iherman’a Valley, there to halt until the saidue cornea up. This night I expected ) have been at Shirley, but am much in getting in the strays v ‘tie harvest season* with the two attacks it Fort Granville, has left us so bale of ummiDitioQ that I shall be obliged to ipply to the stores here for some quantity Jr the expedition." It wusletirned from 1 deserter that the French and Indians vero then preparing to attack Fort Shir ty with four, hundred men, and all pos lible baste was made to strike the savages lebre they left their homes. The liillo and marched from Fort Shirley on the blrtletb of August, and on the second itttaplecubsr Jolued’au advance party at Jeaver Dams, near Fraukstowii, on the 'uaiata river. It was no gaudy military )rouesaion, with nodding plumes and fiy {ig Hags ami soul-inspiring music of fife lad drum, but a toilsome, perilous march, J silence, and portions of it at night, _ iver the Alleghenies and through the Jienninahle forests that stretched away wards the Ohio. The evening of the icond day from Beaver D.ims,brought hem within a few miles of Kiltunulng, Oil it was determined to advance upon is town m the night, 1 and fall upon the lndians at daylight the en ding morning. As they were proceeding aallencdvono of the guides returned'and vporctsii that aoihe distance ahead ho dia ■Jvered a fire by tiie roadside, at .which ‘Voor (hree Indians were sitting. The “Idicrs were ordered to fall hack quietly ■few hundred yards, while the officers o»8ulled upon the best method ot ad ■HK-ing without being discovered. The scout again returned, and staleil that ■Lore were not above three or four In iiuusut the fire, ami it was first proposed 1® surround them and cut them off, but ibis was decided to be too hazardous, for Unit uie of the enemy escaped he would harun the town, and thus rob the expe iilion of the secrecy on which its success oalnly depended, It wasdeclded to leave Lieut, Hogg, with twelve men, and the !C(| ut who first discovered the fire, with filers to watch the-enemy, but not to 'hack them till break of day, and if pos iible to cut them off- The main body ‘Leu took a circuit off the road, to avoid ‘iiicovery by the enemy. They were titled to the Indian village by the mono ‘°nous beating of a drum and the whoop tog uf the warriors In their (lance. AVlieu ‘Ley reached the top of the hill overlook^ the Indian town, a novel and inter f6fiug scene presented itself, in the light °fllio moon, then nearly full. The war f‘or,). decked In sklu£ and feathers, their faces and bodies marked with paint, were dancing the war dunce, moving In a clr l’lc around a post set up in the centre of “‘Blown,each one holding some warlike Wt ‘»puu in his hand. In their movements ll *oy exhibited all the attitudes and mo ‘ions used ia buttle, and strove to excej e “ch other iu prowess. Now they imitate “'e movement of the .wild cat, stealthily Cr "uching to surprise Us victim, lifting °“e foot, then setting it down slowly, on “ptoe, in u bent posture, and looking Ca ntlously iu every direction. Then rush- L*t,'upon the post, with a wur-whoop from whole party; as if. to tomahawk or B L‘ulp a real enemy—and then strutting aiv ’ny iu triumph. All the while Uio w mnt‘u saug a dull refrain, accompanied Ly alow and measured beating on the ‘lrtiin. There was a wild and pleasing Larmony inthe muslo.biit the war whoops toad© the bravo settlers examine their trusty weapons to see that they were ready for the fray. The dance suddenly ended, and one of the Indiana gave a peculiar whistle, which Armstrong’s men supposed to bo a signal of the approach of the whites, and every man prepared himself for a sudden onslaught of the savage foe; but the French deserter, Ba ker, explained that the whistle was the manner in which an Indian culled a squaw after the dance was done. The moon went down, and soon a number of small tires appeared In different portions of an adjoining corn field, where the In dians slept in warm weather, and which were intended to drive away the gnats. At length the fires burned low, and all was quiet. Armstrong now roused his men, some of whom, wearied by the long march, had fallen asleep ; and directed i ( \ portion of them to full upon the Indians sleeping in the corn field, and another portion to attack the houses which were then dimlyseen in the early dawn. The attack begun In the coni field, where a number of Indians were slain: The so- tlie town. The Indian dogs barked furiously, arous ing the sleepers. An Indian ean\e to the door of the first house, and bolding his hands ua If shading his eyes from the morning light,stood lookingtowards the whites until several studs were tired at him ; and then, as if suddenly compre hending the situation, lie ran in. shout ing, “Shewanlck !—Shewuniek.” white men—white men! C’lpt. Jacobs imme diately sounded the war whoop, and cull- / ed to ids warriors that the white men were now come and they would have scalps enough. The women and children fled to the woods. From Jacobs' house the fire was returned with great spirit. Captain Hugh Mercer received a wound tliroughthe arm, and was taken back to the top of the hill. Colonel Armstrong was wounded with a musket ball lu the shoulder, and half a dozen others fell in quick succession. Armstrong cal-ed aloud : “ Is there no: e of you lads that’ will set fire to these rascals that have wounded me and killed so many of our men?” John Furgesou, a private soldier, sprang to the front, and shouting, “ By the Lord God, I will!*’ ran to a hut cov ered with.bark, .and tearing off a piece of’ bark already iu flames, uui to the bouse of Jacobs, and held it against the roof until it had .burned a hole a yard square, and then ran back to his cheering com rades, in ashowerof bullets. His clothes were riddled wlth.bullsj but he escaped without a scratch. Many of the warriors driven out by the flames, only to fall by the unerring aim of the settlers. Jacobs defended .his hut to the last. He was commanded.to surrender, but replied, that he was a man and never would be a pri.ioner. He was told that he would bo burned,- but replied that, he-was not afraid of fire, and vyould kill four or five pale ! faces before lie died. Finally the smoke | and flames drove him and his family from their fortress. Jacobs fell at his irwu duor, piercgd~oy a~tlozeu buHetrsr^ 9 " wife wielded a tomahawk around her bead, and as she Jumped a neighboring fence* fell to rise no more. Their son, who was said to be seven feet high, was shot in attempting to reach the corn field. In one of the huts, as the fire approached and the. smoko grew thick, one of the Indians began to sing, as if sublimely iudllferent to his fate. A squaw in the same house began to cry, when she was told to be quiet; but soon their stoic en durance gave way before the scorching flumes, and two Indian men and the squaw sprang out of the hut and ran to wards the corn field, but were immedi ately shot down. While the huts were burning, the whites were entertained by the firing ofTof the loaded gnus and the explosion of bags and kegs of gunpowder, wherewith almost eyery house abounded. The ludiaus frequently boasted Unit they had a sufficient stock of ammunition for a ten years’ war with the English. About thirty houses were burned, and in them a great quantity of goods which the French had. presented to the Indians only fen days before; laid between thirty and forty Indians were left dead on the battle ground. This was the severest blow the Indians had yet received at the hands of the white settlers. Hitherto the English had not assailed them iu their towns, and they fancied they would not dare to approach them there. Those v. ho were not destroyed resolved to abandon the luwu, and., henceforth to put Port-Du quesue and the French garrison between them and the English. Armstrong learned from some of the English prisoners whom they bad releas ed, that the next day u party of French •and Indians were to oet out to attack Fort SUirely, and that twenty-four war riors had departed the evening before, to kill game for the expedition. Apprehen sions were at once aroused that all these Indians had been ut the roadside fire, in whir.) ease the fate of Lieut. Hogg and his parly was sealed. Their horses and provisions had also been left in charge of the lieutenant, and It was determined to fall back as, rapidly as possible.- From apprehensions of being surrounded, it was difficult In keep t’se men together ; and they were occasionally thrown Into confusion by shots from a tew straggling Indians who hung upon their flanks, fired and then retreated into the forest, 'll; 1 scout who reported hut three.Jji' diaiw at the lire had made a fatal mistake. Poor Hogg and his little bund-approaehed wlthdi a short distance of the cneirty, and then lay down to watch their move ments. Near the dawn of day one of the Indians came towards them, and op« of Hogg’s men, thinking they were likely, to be discovered, fired ar him and missed hia aim. The report of the gun Drought twenty or thirty savages to their feet. Astounded to see a force so far superior to their own. the little baud .nevertheless determined to fight it out, and fired a volley into the Indians, which brought three of them to the ground. A warm engagement then ensued, lasting for an hour. Three settlers-were killed, Hogg was twice wounded, ami the others sought refuge in flight. The lieutenant hid him self, where lie might liave lain securely \iinlil the main body-came up, but a ser geant and several men who had deserted from Armstrong’s command that morn Ing, came hy, and placing Hogg on a horse, curried him u.ong with them Tliev had not gone far when a party of I odious appealed. The lieutenant, not withstanding* his wounds, commanded llio hien to stand uiul fight, but they re fused, and turned in flight Hogg Was main shot In ihe stomach, and hud rid den i,ut u short distance when he leJl dead from hia horse. After finding the body of the lieutenant and some of his comruies, the expedition started home by r<-pid marches, and without any ad venture of importance, arrived at Fort Lytileton on the twelfth of September, After his removal to the hill, while tho fight was in progress at Kittanning, a number of Captain Mercer's company, which was composed chiefly of traders, persmiclml tlielr Captain tliat not one liv ing man would ever get home. He sent word to Armstrong, urging 111 in to retreat, and wlieu bis request was not compiled with, he consented to go with same of his men by a bypath to the place of rendez vous, but unfortunately they encountered the Indians who had defeated lieutenant Hogg. Several whites wore killed. Cnpt. Mercer was mounted ou a horse, and he, Thomas Burke and ensign Scott lied to the road. The captain soon grew weak from loss of blood. His attendants laid him upon the ground to dress his wound, and while thus engaged, they discovered an Indian approaching them, whereupon Burke aud Scott mounted Mercer’s horse and rode away, leaving their Captain to his fate. lie lay quietly behind.a log, in a thick growth of weeds, and the Indian,* seeing the fugitives riding oil, gave a halloo and ran after them. He thou made his way lo a stream ol water, where he was fortunate enough lo dis cover a grovo of wild plum trees, ou the fruit of which he subsisted for several weeks. Ho stated after bis return that all the food begot, besides the plums, was one raitlesuuke, and that he ate raw. \yiu»n nearing the. Allegheny mbuntimi, lie met*'one”of Fils lute companions-in arms, both of them thing so much re ducetUas to be scarcely able lo walk. When they came 10-the Juniata, the sol dier declared it was impossible for him to go a step fartuer. and he laid down, exposing never more to rise. Meiccr bade him farewell, and had gone about seven miles farther, when ho 100 lain down* giving up all hopes of getting homo. Fortunately a baud of; friendly Cherokee. Indians,'in pay of the provin cial government, hud been sent to search along the foot of the mountain to seo if there were any signs of the Indians; and they came upon Mercer, then unable to rise. Ho told them of his famishing comrade, aud they discovered him, and brought both of them to Fort Lyttleton, where they were properly cared for. Ho whose life was thu-< providentially savod | in later days was Gen. Hugh Mercer, of Revolutionary fame. Colonel Armstrong,on his return, fur-, nished Gov. Denny the following list of killed, wounded and missing: Lieut, Col. J oik AuawraoKa’a Company. Kilted— Thomas Power. John McCormick. Wounded— Lt. Col. Armstrong, Jus.'CiimilhrH, James dtrlcklauU.

Eleven English prisoners were recap lured‘from the Indians, among whom were Ann McCord, wife of John McCord, and Martha Thorn, a girl seven years old, carried of! by the savages at the destruc* tipn of McCord’s fort, the previous year. So general was the rejoicing over this victory, that the corporation of Philadel phia addressed a complimentary letter lo Col. Armstrong, thanking him and the oni ce.rs and men of his-commamifbr the em hunt services they had done their country, and presenting him.a service of pi nte and a medal, ami directing a sum of money to be distilbuled among the men. The medal sent to Col. Armstrong ha«l oiFono side a device of an officer fol lowed by two soldiers—the officer point ing to,a soldier shooting from behind a tree, am! an Indian prostrate before him —in the back ground Indian houses in flames, and beneath, “ Kittanning de* stnyed by Col., Armstrong,- Sepi. Bth, 1750” ; and on the other wide, thb arms of the corporation, .and the words, “The Glftofthe Corporation of. Philadelphia.” ConOkrt.—The lovers of good inusic will, not hill to lemcmbcr the dress re hearsal of the Philharmonic Association, hi Good Will Hall, on Monday evening next. As the expenses of the Association have heeu considerable, and fall heavily upon a lew of the members, it has been wisely determined to sell a limited mmv ber of tickets to meet the current expen ses. The tickets can ho •purchased from any member of the Association, or at the Carlisle Deposit and Knrmcrs* Uanke, for 35 cents each. The holies and gentlemen composing this. Association have done so much for the entertainment of their friends, that we expect to see a cheerful response to this call. It will he remeni bored that t he entire expenses of the hall, in which they have given their frto cn t.-i tainmenta, have fallen upon the Asso ciation, which Isn't exactly tin; Inirthing. These musical entertain meals have been of a high order, and while the active mem hers of the Association have done the labor, it isn’t right that they should do all the paying. Wi; are approaching the season when epidemics and rumors <*f epidemics may ho expected. Lime and water are great purifiers, and cannot ho too freely used as sanitary agents. The purity of the water employed for domestic consump-* tion is a matter of the highest public importance ; quite ns important as a full supply of the indispensable element. It is n ow well established that dysentery t typhoid fever, cholera, etc., and other fatal diseases, ore caused Ivy animal and vegetable substances dissolved in the wa ter, therefore all supplies for drinking, culinary or bathing purposes, should be carefully inspected. One point to- be borne in mind is, that we may get accustomed to drinking impure water and not know it, unless other senses than our taste are consulted. - Thk Qkowino Wheat.- From every section of the county we have the most favomble reports in relation to the ap pearance of the wheat crop, ami it is said the indications of an abundant yield wore never more promising. The wheat now looks as green amt healthy as it generally does in the middle of April. It is not thought that the wet weather will have an'lnjurious effect upon the crops, Tlie country just now p-esents a lovely aspect, and a stioll Into the rural districts will convince any one that spring Is ac tually coining. . P.AiI.ItoAD Mattbbs.—Railroad enter prises seem to ha the order of the day. Considerable interest is manifested In the building of a road from Dillaburg, or be yond, to Mechaulcsburg ; and It is ru mored that the Cumberland Vuiley rood proposes to render material assistance to the project. Surveys are also being made for a road from Mt. Pleasant, near London, Frank lin county, the terminus of IheSouthern Pennsylvania Railroad, to Ml, Union, on the Pennsylvania Central Railroad ; and It looks us If the road would bo built at no distant day. SPring-Time.—Nature Ims strange ways of doing beautiful things. Out of the oozy the mud and rui'n of early spring, come the moat delicate flowers, their white leaves, bom out of the dirt, as unsullied and pure as if they had bloom' ed In the garden of Paradise. Thesb glorious, warm, rattling spring rains, take the frost out of the ground, and “settle” the earth, and make the farmer think of the plougii and the peed time. They start the birds to twitting among the burst* Ing buds, and awake the croakers of the swamps, and wash the plumes of the rugged pines till they look new again. Everything seems to be getting ready to he beautiful. True, March may bluster a little, once or twice, but the UlUps of the Held will soon stand up, and the pas* hires will grow green along ‘Vthe com plaining brooks,” and the violets will i look up and catch the color of tho blue ; skies overhead. •Summer Resort.—A commodious and hamlsnmo'hotel lias been erected atHun (er's Kim-, on the South'^Rnmtain Rail road, and 4 will doubtless be In operation early in the Spring. Prom the numerous pic uics which go to Hunter's Rim every year, nud the number of persons who visit that locality to enjoy the scenery and the pure mountain air, the enterprise ought to be a -paying one. Barn Burned.— About 8 o’clock, on Tuesday evening Inst, the large bank barn of J. G. Weaver, at Centreville, was destroyed by (Ire, together with all the contents, excepllng’tbe stock, which was saved by extraordinary exertion. Mr. W.’a was about $2,400, on which there was no Insurance, it having expired about ten days previous to the tire. The tiro was undoubtedly the work of an iu ncendlury. Mr. Weaver offers a reward of $2OO for the arrest and conviction of the person or persons who (ired the barn. Farthings an'd Cannistbr Shot.— John Willhour, in plowing In a field on “Happy Retreat” farm, just west of Carlisle, plowed up four eannister shot and twelve farthings. All are in a good state of preservation, and out 1 of the farthings .Is dated 1(100. The shot and farthings were close together, and, beyond question, have had a long sleep in mother earth. The weather has been delightful. March is dealing in the lamb business about us extensively as Mary. A flock of wild geese was *heard in this neighborhood the other night. ‘The season of. marbles has arrived.*— Everywhere now, on the sunny side of the streets, the juveniles are seen plying their vocation. An “Improved Nursing Apparatus” la advertised. We don’t believe the old way can be improved much. There are some Urines that were about completed at the beginning. Gbybr’s new hotel at Papertnwn is completed, and will be ready for guests during the domiun season. Tub old Borough Council held its last meeting on Friday evening last, the new Council meets during the present week. Col. John 8. Ritchie, of Mercershurg. has been appointed by the Auditor Gen eral as Assessor of Bank stock, for the counties of Dauphiii, Franklin and Cum berland. Up to the time of going to press, March has been an exceedingly pleasant month, and many. of the farmers .are plowing. Much rain has, however, fallen within a few days, but th-y were warm ruins. The weather prophets say we are to have a small winter yet. If.they are right, it is (o be hoped it may bo a short one. Trotting Marb Bold.—The trotfin g mare “Lady Alien,” owned by'E. G. Kaudinun, near Hagerstown, was sold at public sale, wMi hlsotheratock, recently, to a gentleman'of Carrol 1 county, for the •handsome sum of 51,322 50. ■ Wh have been infortnotl that the state* mmitlhat the Jefferson Medical College of Philadelphia had announc'd that it wohhl hereafter adm't students without regard to sex or color, is pronounced by the Faculty to bo,a mallciaiH falsehood, originated by soma enemy of the .school. ArUest of Counterfeit Dealers.— Dauphin and adjoiningcountleg-forsome lime past have been infested with.a gang of pen sons dealing In counterfeit money. Four of the party were arrested last week ami commuted to the Harrisburg jail. Their names aro Milton Zerger, Elias Hodman, Michael Kerns, ami Catherine (familiarly known as “ Kltty’ , ) Frantz. Zergor appears to bo the leader of the gang, and isunown as the ‘Flying Dutch*, man,’ a wame gained from the rapidity of his movements and his success in avoid ing the detectives who have long been upon his tracks. He ccourcul the country as a peddler, and imposed his base cur rency upon thn unsophisticated residents of Hie rural districts This Hodman is a huckster of MeehanicMiur"-, Cumberland coiiniy> and is said to he a clever dealer in the'queer.’ He Kearns Is ilie proprietor of a hot's] near the Leh anon Valley depop, at Harrisburg. Ho was commuted in default of $5,000. The woman Frantz weighs about 200 pounds, is aged about 11 fly years, and. was also cofnmlited -in default of $5,000. ft is es llmated that SoO.OOO In counterfeit mone£ have been almved in Dauphin anti Leb anon counties within the pustalx months, the above parties contributing their due shall* to the Muount. A Kew paper—We owe our young neighbor, The Broad A.rc, an apology.— The omission to notice tills creditable enterprise was entirely unintentional. — Mr. Jacob" Bomberger, u gentleman of ability, energy and thrift, lm*i started the publication of a naper at Cloverslnii'g, tills county, which lie has cliriatoned 7he Broad Arc. Us selections manifest excellent diacrimination, ito .editorials posses considerable vim, ami in its typo graphical appearance it. equals anything printed in the Cumberland Valley. The Broad Axe Is to be tbo champion of the development of the iron interests of the Cumberland Valley, and in this work we welcome so able u coadjutor. Guide Boards.— ln traveling over the country, one of the most noticeable ilo fretfl to bo met with is th e want of guide boards to direct the stranger at the inter section of roads. Tliomithoritios of aotuo townships are fir more culpable for tills ne-„ gleet than others, but the neglect in this respect is entirely too common. The law Is perhaps snniciently explicit, but the fault is that it is not complied with-in many cases. This deficiency is apparent in moat of our important turnpikes and roads, and persons have often been com pelled to travel considerable distances in great doubt and uncertainty whether they were pursuing the right road or not. We hope the laws In regard to the man agement of roads will be revised and bet ter adapted to the present wants of the public, and if this Is attempted, the re quirement in regard to maintaining pro per guide-boards ought to bo made more stringent ami more strictly enforced, Young Men's Christian Association of Carlisle.—According to an appoint ment previously made, a meeting of tho friends .and members of this Association was held In the Lecture Room of the Luthcrau church, on Thursday evening the 9th inst., for tho purpose of perfecting a reorganization and adopting a new con stitution. A full attendance was given, ami thg iqanifestution of an active and earnest feeling on tho put of all present, evinced the desire to become a united and working body. Tho following officers were elected for the ensuing year : President’- J. C. Stock. Vice /VcsWcnd—Andrew Blair. Recording Secretary—lvv\n C. .Senders. Corresponding Secretary—J. A. Duke.

Organized four, years ago, they were provided;- through->ohe -''"liberality-of - our citizens, with rooms which were furnish ed by tho ladies of the town. Strong in. numbers and firm in their purpose, their' work was an aggressive one, exerting an Influence for good. But at length, being deprived of the help they had received from the public, and the icvenues from their own rcsnurc.es not being sufficient to meet their expenses, they found them selves after a lime compelled to narrow their ground of usefulness, their reading loom and library -dillerodpaml at length the rooms had to be given up. For the past year their devotional and business meetings have been held from house to house of the members. But im pressed with the importance of tbe work in which they were engaged, and feeling the future opened a still larger field be fore them, they resolved to again unite themselves in an active body, and now stand before the community asking their co-operation, aid and support, that .they mily enlarge and increase their borders, and be felt as an influence for good among us.

'Having gone some‘distance to see the exercises of ’these little'folks', we wore highly gratified that their ac quirements were well worth Kotdng. Al though uli quite young, the thorough disciplining of their excellent teacher, Miss Bell Magluughlin, gave them a ■proficiency really astonishing iii many resped- 1 .

Musical.— Among the thousand and one Pianos offered, to the public, we any instrument so fully muLing 3 1dl the desirable qualities sought for as the Knahc Piano. It is a matter of some dilliQtilty and perplexity to Li experienced persons to select a good in* Btrument of any capacity. We too often rely,upon the judgment of friends in the Helccliou of. a.Piano, ami are thus fre quently disappointed. The only sure way, in our opinion, ia to go to the beat maker. For tills reason wo reccommeud to our readers to purchase Pianos of W. Knabe & Co.'s manufacture. This will relievo them the vexatious necessity of wasting time in a long search. The rep utation of the Knabe Pianos la an infall ible guaranty of excellence. In the homes of the most accomplished and wealthy of onr citizens, and in onr best seminaries and colleges, these muguifii cent instruments may be found. Nor la this any wonder, for, in purity, depth and constancy of tone, they aro unsur passed. Their gradation of scale la so exquisitely, and, at the same time, com prehensively attuned, that they are ca pable of expressing every emotion of 1 ho human heart and soul. Their tone is exquisitely pure and unique, and so oven , sweet and sympathetic that il inspires all who listen to it, while at the same ti mo the action ia perfectly free, and the keys resound to the touch with such sensitive ness and intelligence, so to speak, into make one almost think that tlio mind of the manufacturer lingers in his work.

I feel that I \m diirst'tnd fully the course that ou«htto ho pur suo.l to restore a tolerably bad m«o of diseased hums to healthy soundness. The first and most important step Is lor the patient lo avoid tdcing col and the hesLol all places on this continent for lids purpose In whiter.

At’Ood hotel is kept there by 1«• term in Last winter I saw several persona there whoso hums hud been badly diseased but who under the healhm influence of the clliiuito ami 'my medicines, wore getting well. One hundred miles furtaor down the river Is a rmint which I would prefer to I’ulailca, nt» the temperature la more even and the air dry and bmclmr Mellonvllloand F.ntcrprlseare located there. I should klvo a decided preference to Mellonvllle. It Is two miles from river or lake, and It seems almost Impossible to lake cold there The tables In Florida mlfiht he belter, and patients complain at limes but that is a 11 md Kicn.as It Indicates a return of uppolUe, and when this Is the case they generally Increase lu Uesli, and then the lungs must heal. Jacksonville, Hlburblu, Green Cove, and many other places In various parts of Florida, can bo safely recommended to consumptives in winter. My reasons lor say lug ho m o that patients m o Jc'S liable to lake cold there then where there Is a less oven temperature, artd ll Is not necessary to say that where a consumptive plmsoh exposes himself to frequent colds ho la cot lain to dlu shortly, Theroiorc my ndvloo is. g<> well down Into the Slate out nf tho reach of provailla sum; winds and fogs. .Jacksonville. nr almost any other of the localities I have named, will beuo- IU those who are troubled with a torpid, liver, ft dtsored stomach, deranged bowels, sorollmmt or cough, hut for those whose lungs aro diseased a more southern point la earnestly recommend ed. ’ , For fifteen years prior to IKii*). I was profession ally in New York. Iloston, Ilaltnnore amt Phila delphia every week, wheie I saw amt examined on an average five hundred patients n week. A practice so extensive, embracing every .possible phase of lung disease, has enabled mo to undori stand tho dNeapo lully, and hence, my caution In regard to taking cold. A person may take vast quantities of Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup. Seaweed Tonic and Mnndmko Pill, and yet die ll ho’doos not avoid taking cold. In Florida, nearly eveiybody la using Sciienck’H Mandrake FUN. for the climate is mom likely to produce billons habits than more northern latitude. .It Is a well established tact that natives of Florldararely die ofeonsumplUm especially those of the southern part. On the other hand, in New England, one third, at least, of the population die of this terrible d‘sense, in the Middle States It does not prevail so I a rue? ly, sttll there are imuly tliousandsof oases IbeuF. W hat n vast porconlago of lllo'would bo saved If consumptives wore easily alarmed lu regard to taking trosb c*ld as they are about scarlet fever, sin dl pox,«Se. But they are not. They bike what they term a title cold, which they are credulous enough to believe will wear off In a few (lays. They lyiy noalty.nUoij i tqdt.umlhonco ■'if lays tho fimmlliiion for dumber atid another stlil, until tho lungs are dhcased beyond all hope for cure. My advice to persons whoso lungs aro affected even sllg’dly is, l«» ‘ay In a stock of -.Schenek's Pulmonic .syrup, Schonok’s Sea Weed Tonic and Schenck’s Mamiruko Pills and goto Florida. I recommend these particular medicines because 1 am thoroughly acquainted wllh their action.— 1 know that, where they are used In strict ac cordance with my directions they will do tho wo'ivihal Is required. This accomplished, na ture will do tins rest. The physician who pre scribes for cold, cough or ulght-sweaN.and then advises the pallem to walk or ridoont every day. will bo sure to have a corpse on Jus hands belore long. Mv plan is to give my Ihreo medicines, m ne co liance with the primed dhectkmiH. except In some cases whore ii free use of the Mandrake Pills Is necessary. My object Is to give lone to the stomach—to get up a good appetite. It is always a good sign when a patient begins to grow hungry. I have opes of such. Wllh a relish tor lood and the giatltleation of that rel ish comes good blood, and with it mote llesh, which is closely followed by a healing of tho lungs. Then the cough loosens and abates, (he creeping chills and clammy ntght-sweas no longer prostrate'and antiov, and the patient gets welt.provided ho avoids taking cold. Now there are many consumptives who- have not the means lo go Flm »da. The question may l)o asked, Is there no hope for such? Certainly there is. My advice to smm is. and over has been, to stay in a warni room during the w.inter, wllh ii temperature of about seventy degrees, which should,bo kept regularly at that point, by means oftv thermometer. Let shell a patient tuko his oxorcNo within tho limits of the mom ' py wulklne up and down as much as his strength will permit, in order to keep up a healthy circu lation of tho blood. I have-cured thousands by this'system, and can do .so again. .Consump tion Is us easily cured ns any it Is taken In lime, and tho proper kind-of treat ment Is pursued.. Tho fact stands undisputed on record that Schenck’s Pulmopjc syrup. Man drake Pdls.andscawo'dTonlc.havo cured very many of what seemed to ho hopeless cases of consumption. Go where you will, yon will be almost certain, to And some poor consumptive who has been rescued from tho very Jans of death by thole use.
