Outra<je in Crawford county, Pa. —Early on
the morning of the 3d inst., a gang of men
overpowered the watchman in charge of the
! reservoir at Ilartstown. Crawford county, Fa.,
and cut an opening about eight feet wido
through the embankment, through which the
waters rushed with terrific force. At last
accounts the break was about 80 feet wide,
! and the water still pouring out upon the
j country below. The reservoir is a feed of the
Eric extension canal, and is filled from French
Creek.
B®A decisive step has been taken towards
constructing the railroad to connect the Sun

tending from Bellefonto to Tyrone, has just
been let to Messrs. Brady & Co., who agree
to grub, grade, and finish ready for the su
perstructure, the whole line from Bellefonte
to Tyrone for the sum of $00,500, being
$1,575 08 less than the engineers estimate.
ADVERTISING A MORAL DUTY.
Some years ago it was proposed by an
American Physician that members of the
Faculty should advertise their remedies and
modes of treating diseases in the newspapers.
It was a held and manly idea. It was scout
ed, however, by the profession generally, as
infra dty. But is there any degradation in
publicity? Is it not rather the great touch- I
stone that tics pretension and universalizes i
the practical benefits of all valuable inven
tions and discoveries? Should not a profes
sion that aims at the mitigation of suffering
and the preservation of life, make the means
of obtaining these grand objects known
through the channel of information most ac
cessible to all classes and conditions, the col
umns of the public press? If it declines to
do so, the natural inference is either that the
desire of secrecy arises from a sordid, mo
nopolizing, egotistic spirit, or front a lack of
Faith in its own prescriptions.
Viewing the subject in this light, we may
presume Professor Holloway some twentv
years ago, overleaped the barriers which the I
profession had erected between itself and the !
| public, and plunged fearlessly into the news- ;
; paper arena. He had discovered or rather
invented, after years of research and experi
; incuts, two preparations which he believed to
be specifics for nearly all the diseases of man- 1
kind: and as an indication of his confidence j
in the in, and a proof of his philanthropic !
.visit that, if really valuable, they should be !
accessible to the whole world, he advertised '
them wh- rover advertising media existed.—
This was the severest ordeal to which he could !
have submitted them the cxptr>nicn'um cm
en. lie threw tiiein at once, as it were, he
lore the sick of all regions. He stated their j
properties, pro. laiuted what (h -y would do, !
and staked reputation and fortune upon the j
issue. That issue lias been all that he or the
world could have desired. The rich and the
po. r. the learnt d .uoUbe ignorant, physicians,
statesmen, m marchs, a nation uf enlightened
freemen, have sanctioned, used.ext died them,
i hey arc fuel farts in medical history!
Is not tliis bettor than hiding light under a j
bushel? Is it not better than writing pre- ;
seriptions in a dead language, and putting,
weights and quantities into hieroglyphics. j
II anything is worth knowing it is worthy i
of being universally known. So thinking. 1
liulloway proclaimed the virtues of his med i
ieinc through the press; and fortune, fame ;
aud the gratitude of miliums have been his
reward.—.V. 17 Sun.
