Mr. W. also showed us tho following very compliment ary .T-tielo contained in tho Button Journal o Commerce, a leading journal of its kiutl; which we reproduco by his permission : The emery wheel manufacture has bccbitio a vast Industry in tho United States; and beyond nil doubt, tho annual products of all tlio diircrctitc'oinpanieseiigaged in this busi ness would many tunes over purchaso tlio entire island of Xaxos, from tlio jwint on which tll6cbllilit)un'.ltakesltsname. Among the first companies of tlio country, stands tho " Lehigh Valley," whose works cover an extensivo area of ground at Weissjiort, Car bon county, Penn. Through tho into stag nation of trade; this company has held its own and steadily increased its busincss.until it now controls a large nnd steadfast trade. Allwhomako use ot solid emery wheels know that tho qualities absolutely essential In a good article aro strength, rapidity of cxecutidn, uniformity nnd durability. The Lehigh Valley Company claims for its wheels, and claims justly, too, that they coinbiuo these qualities more thauanyother wheel iu the market. Under no conditions will they t;niit au olfensivo odor, nor will they crack, gum or glazo;aro uniform throughout, will wear evenly, if projwrly mounted, to the centra without turning up or truing as others require. Taken alto gether, these wheels havo no superior in tlio market, and are exactly what they are claimed to be, coming from every test with llvinz colors. Tho Lehich Valley Coninanv also manufactures a full lino of machined for grinding saws nnd iilaner knliesitid for general use. They make and keep constant ly on hand a largo variety of machines of dillerent sizes and prices, to suit the wants of all manufacturers who use emery wheels. Thero are no inferior grades iikuIo or kept in stock, and every improvement is at once put into practical use. Wceongratulatc, tho olfieers of the coniiany (notably Mr. Wtu. Lilly, tho presideut, and Mr. L. E.

Ed. Carcos Advocate : "Alpha's" refer ence to "vaporing" Is Shother attempt at witticism. How satirical lib is : nnd as a final cifort ho has procured tlibrccords, and, like tho "Louisiana Returning Board," pre sents such a result as he vHsficl Ho may be H handy thing to have about sothettrne m Itoyefhber. Wo still fnaintain that his statcfrifml in his first article was false. "I heard It" may lie a iHoillilcntiorl to him, but not to;15, wo lest that part of the Case however "no fcross examination." As to his reference about a charge agtiiht the teachers' (one in particular) ; for the life of us wo do hot understand "Alpha" "Dreaniingagaiil, pel haps." Wc don't know what he menus we never heard nnytliing ns to tho jierR'iiHl character of any of tho teachers; wo consider their character above reproacii ; nnd if they had to rely on such iv chamniou ns "Alpha" their prayer would soon bo: from such "oh Lord, deliver jis"j no, no, "Alpha,"-you aro wandering. As to our generosity toward tlicni, it Ma,! bo a moot-case. If "Alpha" can' find in any of our articles anything like mi fit tack upon tho character of uur teacher why tru will stand accused. As to hi.sbein; a careful and studied writer; wo gavo him the credit wo thb'tight due. But his modesty admits of no such honor; wo take it all" back, if lie docs not deserve it. As to his attending schools, half ha lime, (ono day there, and tho next somo other iilace), wo don't know that we cafe particu iarly about that, nor did wo question lu.s ability financially, to attend private Schools. We wore not hi guardian and aro not re sjionsible. Ho says ho lias no particular de sire to attack nnyone, but if attacked will defend himself. We wcro under tlio im pression all olong that we wcro the defend ent in tho case; but it seems not; however we rest our case finally, deeming further at tention to "Alpha'" articles unnecessary. Packerton, Sept. 17. Axon. " faon't lvo Uu tlio Ssilji."' When theso words were sjiokeu by our lamented Lawrence, it must have been n sol cirtli time for those on board, and probably not a dry eyeamongthem, seeing theirconi mandcr mortally woundcd,and still giving orders like the above; but not moro solemn than when tlio family physician informs you that somo ono of your family lias an af fection of tlio lungs which, if neglected, will cvcntiiaily terminate in Consumption.

I havo from ten to fifteen in my em ploy, and wo ncaily all uso your medicine. But I cannot nllbrd to pay tho retail prico for it. Tho last Honey or Horeiion'd ANff TaR I sent to Troy N.

I laid for tho last livo dollars for six cightr ounce luttles. Can 1 buy it in five-pound bottles? This, I think, would bo a very good jilaco to advertise your goods.
