LEWISTOWN MILLS. THE subscriber has again got his Mill started,and wishes ] 1 to buy a LARGE QUANTITY OF ALL KINDS OF (.'RAIN, for which he will pay the CASH, as high as the market will afford, according to quality. Any person having good Wheat will dojwell to call and show a sam ple before they sell, as he thinks he can afford to give MORE than any person in the place Those not wishing to sell and wanting to store, he will receipt after harvest to be kept to the Ist of December, and after that time he w ill give a receipt to be kept to the Ist of August, as he will wish to close all his accounts twice a year, and will not keep any over unless he makes a written contract to that effect. If the person holding the receipt does not sell before the above days, it will he carried out to (heir credit at market price at the above named time. In giv ing a receipt.il the w heat is not good, he will mention the reduction per bushel fn the receipt, so thai wheu the owner comes to sell there will be no difficulty. All wheat left in store he will reserve the privilege of buying, when the owner wishes to sell, at 13 cents less] than Philadelphia price when the canal is open, and 16 cetils less when it is closed, and if he should not buy at these prices, he will only charge one cent per bushel for! storage. No interest will be allowed on money left with him for grain, as he w ill he prepared at all times to pay] the cash. ' | | He will keep all kinds of FLOCK and FEED for sale, hut the orders must be left in the office in the mill, and the J cash paid, before the Flour or Feed will be delivered .This arrangement is made to prevent any disappointment, as there is no person that has any privilege of selling but the Book-keeper, who enters it on the book and puts the [order on a wire for the porter to deliver. This will pre .vent any mistake from being made in the filling of orders. JOHN STERRETT. I.ewistow n, June 28, tf WARM SPRINGS, PERRY COUNTY. PA. THE undersigned begs leave to inform the public, that he has recently purchased the Warm Springs, in Perry county, Pa , and has improved and refurnished the buildings for the entertainment of visiters, in a style calculated to ensure comfort and convenience to all who may feel disposed to patronize the establishment. These springs are situated on the banks of and empty lirilo Sherman's creek, a stream assoc aled with the thrill ] ing scenes between the early settlers of that part of Pennsylvania and the aborigines, whose hunting grounds 1 jay on its margin. They are 11 miles from Carlisle, (through which the Cumberland Valley Railroad passes] from Chambersburg to Harrisburg.) from whuh place! visiters can at al! times procure excellent conveyances. Those also from the east, wishing to reach the springs by 1 the Central Railroad, can do so by taking passage to the' Duncatinon Iron Works, (13 miles distant from the springs) w here coarhps are constantly in readiness to convey them thither; arid those coming from the west on the same road, can at all times obtain easy conveyan ces at the Raiiroad Hotel at Newport, which is but a few miles distant from the springs. The qualities of the water at these springs are most extraordinary indeed for the speedy and permanent cure of SCROFULA, TETTF.R, F.ruptions of the Skin , ami in fact every species of Cutaneous Diseases. He has hundreds of certificates, showing the wonderful cures; effected by using this water internally, and by bathing in it, obtained as well from strangers as from those residing in the immediate neighborhood of the springs, who have not only exjierienced the infallible efficacy of the water themselves, but witnessed the same upon others. Prof. JAVINS C. BOOTH has analyzed the waters, and found them to contain 9 2 grains of solid matter in the gallon, w lii h is i oniposed as follow s : Carbonate of lirne, ... 2 067 ** magnesia, - 1.938 Alk.ilno salts,chiefly chlorides, with a por tion of sulphate, - - 1.093 -ilica - - - - - 0 605 Organic matter, ... 2.897 0.200 There are also at the same place half a dozen of other springs, of different descriptions, among which is one of sulphur and one of cold water. It may not be improper to state why a knowledge of the extraordinary medical qualities of these springs has not been more extensively known than is indicated by the certificates of those only who have resided in their im mediate neighborhood. Years ago the property fell into the hands of a number of heirs, who were indisposed to undertake the responsibility of making it a place of pub lic entertainment—probably because thepatronage of the |ptih!ii would not have justified the undertaking, as at thai time (before the spirit of improvement had rendered distant and difficult points of speedy and cheap access,) its location was out of the way, and the roads to it rough and almost impassable At the death of Mr. Kennedy, it fell into tbe hands of his heirs, neither of whom seem ed disposed to take hold of it, but leased it to tenants.! more for the cultivation of the land than a regard to the! use of the water, it was finally rented to Mr. Hippie, (now proprietor of a large hotel in Trcmont. Pa.) who made arrangements to accommodate the public, and dur ing his term many invalids availed themselves of this opportunity to n-it and test its medical qualities Mr JJipple however retired in a short time, and the property again fell into the hands of the heirs, and remained so until proceedings were instituted in tlie Orphans' Court [for its sale. It was ordered to be sold, and the subscri ber became the pur; baser- l! will thus be seen that withl the exception of the short time it was held hv Mr. Hip-]j| pie, no efforts were made to bring it into notice, j The country round the springs and neighborhood is di-1 versified by cultivation and beautifully wild and pieiu-l [rt'sque scenery, abounding in game, while Hie stream! passing through the property affords line fishing. Every attention will be paid to the comfort and convenience of guests, and the charges so moderate, that all may avail themselves of the benefits of the Water May 31— 8t 11. H. ETTER.
