SINGULAR INCIDENT.- While the
State Fair was in full progress on Mon
day evening a singular incident occurred.
The windows of the picture gallery had
beep lowered to give fresh air in the
room when suddenly a beautiful white
pigeon came sailing into the room and
alighted on the picture of "Hester Read
ing'the Scriptures." It seemed so well
pleased with its position that it remained
there until the close of the evening,
Wliten it was secured by Mr. Ewalt, who
halt-it in charge. It will bo raffled for
during the Fair, the proceeds of the raffle
to go into the general fund. The pigeon
like the dove, is considered as the harbin
ger of peace, and may not this beautiful
incident claim its place amongbt the
strange Occurrences of the times.—Clip

don mes contains an advertsisemen o
a eleriek Rarey. It is addressed to the
unhappy parents of unmanageable boys
or youths up to twenty years. Tho ad
vertiser states that such rough colts are
"made perfectly tractable and gentleman
ly, in one year, by a clergyman, near

religious training, at once elevates chil

EARLY RISINIL—Happy is the man
who is an early riser. Every morning
day comes to him with a virgin's love,
full of bloom and purity and freshness.
The youth of nature is contagious, like
the gladness of a happy child. We doubt
if any man can be called old so long as he
is an early riser and an early walker.—
And (oh, youth ! take our word for it)
youth in dressing gown and slippers,
dawdling over breakfast at noon, is a very
decrepit, ghastly image of that youth
which sees the sun blush over the moun
tains and the dew sparkling upon blos
soming meadows.
Billings on Drafting.
There are sonic nice points in drafting
operations which are extensively discuss
ed in the red-ribon circles. The most
lucid explanation of . a few of these is
given by Josh Pillings :
Widder wirumin, and their only eon iz
tempt, provided the widder's husband
has 'already served 2 years in the war
and iz willing to go agin • i believe the
supreme corte has decide d thing for
ever.
Once more: If a =II should run away
with-his draft, he probably wouldn't ever
be allowed to stand the draft seen; this
looks severe at fust site but the more y u
looked at it, the more yu can see the wis
dom ;nto it.
Once merely : Xempta are those who;
have been drafted into the staitt prizzon
for triing to git au honnist living bi sup
porting 2 wives at otst ; also, all them
people who are crazee and unsound on the
goose; ._also nuscpapers correspondents
and fools in eeneraL
. Once morely agin : ilO substitute will
be acksepted who is- less than three (S
-wore than ten feet high; he.must knb
how to chew tobiteker. and drink poor
whiskee, and musn't be afeerd of tbeitoh
nor the rebels. Moral caracter ain't re
quired as the government furnishes that
and rashnns.
Conclusively : No person can be drat~
ted but twice in two differentplases with
out his consent; but all men hats right
to be drafted at least oust; i don't, thin
even a right of habeas corpus could dal-

critical case.
The usual rem&liei were applied to arrest
the bleeding. 'Large cruses .)f . :acids were
,giveniand the hemorrhage was 'slightly
arrested. A violent irritation of the stom
ach was soon visible, and au` iitteMpt to
vomit was made. Something was discov
ered in the throat, and the Doctor imme
diately took therefrom a substance in a
decomposed-. state, about :six inches -in
length, resembling somewhat the tail ;of
an ordinary snake: The hemorrhage at
once ceased, and the patient appeared
better. The next day the Doctor called
and found the patient bleedifig again, and
unable to speak. The acid was again
given, and the same irritation of the stom
ach produced. An effort to vomit was
made, and Dr. Caldwell took from the
patient's mouth, a substance, seven or
eight inches iu length,. in a state of de
composition, resembling the remains of
the organism of some reptile.
The substances thus disgorged, were
immediately put int - ) spirits for preserva
tion,'and upon subsequent examination,
the evidence seemed undisputable that
the remains of a large sized lizzard had
been thrown from the patient's stomach !
One webbed fbot, with three toes, about
Li inches in length, with regular points,
remained undecomposed, and was clearly
discernable. Dr. Caldwell is of the opin
ion thr.t the whole of this substance is
the decayed organism of a lizzard. How
the reptile was introduced into the stom
ach, and how it grew, and when it died,
is not found in any book of natural his
tory. Mr. Archey died in about two,
weeks after the reptile substance was talc . -
en from his throat. This remarkable
specimen can be seen at Dr. Caldwell's
ofhee,—lhtelligenccr, Lockport, N.
. An old man said, "When I was young,
I was poor, when I was old, I became rich,
but in each condition I found disappoint
ment. When the faculties for enjoyment
wcre,here I had not the means; when the
means came, the faculties were gone."

DYSPEPSIA CURED
Certificate of Mr. Abner D Campbell, of
the firm of Campbell & Marshall, boot and
shoe dealers, Centre Square, Lancaster:
LANCASTER, Fa., March 4, 1863.
Dn. 0. H. MARBLE.,—Dear Sir: It af
fords me much pleasure to have an oppor
tunity to-add my testimony in favor of i
your popular fiu - nily medicines, especially . '
as my knowledge of their efficacy IS based
upon personal experience in my own case
and obseYvation of my neighbors. For
many years 1 was the victim of Dyspepsia
in its most aggravated form ; my system
having become- so deranged and &bin
tated,hat I was unable to perform any
kind of labor. I had resorted to the best
doctors within reach, without relief. I
used some of the most popular remedies of
the day, recommended for that disease, but
none of thorn did me any good. My suf
fering can be understood by any one suf
fering from the same disease, but they
could not be described in words. I was
then living at Hopewell, Chester county.
and in 1857, as a last resort, I commenced
the use of your medicines. They soon af
forded me relief from the most painful
symptoms, which I had scarcely hoped to
obtain ; and in a surpassingly short time I
was completely restored to health, and I
have enjoyed the best of health ever since
—not a symptom of my old complaint re
maining.. Since then I have always kept
your micines in my family, and would
not be without them upon any consid
eration, as they have never failed to do
what you claim for them.
While still living at Hopewell, I became
agent for your father, and sold a large
quantity of the medicine for him, and all
who used them were loud in their praise.
A child ,of Mr. Pickering, of Hopewell,
was afflicted with White Sm elling in the
knee. It was a very bad cm a ! He used
your Balkam Febrifuge and Black Oint
ment, which effected a perfect cure. Nu
mortals - ether eases of cures \effected by
your valflable remedies in that neighbor
hood, could be enumerated if desired. I
have seen enough of them to justify me in
saying that your family medicines are the
best ever presented to the public, of which
I have had any knowledge ; and it is no
less my pleasure than my duty, to recom
mendsc
i s
them to all who are the letims of
disease. Respectfully yet ,
