j#-The religious meetings held by Rev.
j r Baker at Ycagertown closed on Mon-
JV evening last, having, during their con
nuance, induced nearly one hundred per-
residents of that neighborhood, to
rofess faith in the gospel, most of whom J
ave become members of the church.— i
Jhese circumstances are doubly gratifying
rum the fact that there had been but little
uion or harmony there for several years, i
nd of course but little religion.
The meetings in the Methodist Church

ltd his left hand horribly mangled on
Thursday last, while as-isting to raise a
nmie easting, weighing seven or eight
■ins. by means of levers and blocks, for
he purjiose of getting it on a wagon. In
ittempting to move a block his hand was
aught by the ponderous weight, and there
being only a few present several minutes
elapsed before the hand was got out. The
accident occurred at the feeder near Mc-
Coy's warehouse. Dr. Worrall skilfully
dressed the lacerated parts, and hopes are
intcrtaiiK-d that amputation will not he

On the same day. a son of John Shimp

cut his knee badly by slipping and falling
on his axe. The wound was dressed by

to believe that in times like the present,
there could be scoundrels so destitute of

is* men. hut from a circumstance that
lately took place up the river, it appears
that nothing is too low for some to engage
is. A fellow professing to have several
kmlred acres of land near Tyrone made
it extensively known that he was in want
o: laborers, and hy swinging about a bag
vbieh lie alleged contained a sum of money
if fold, succeeded in gaining credence.—
dialing that he had business eastward, he
left bis bag with one whom he had engaged
to ieeompany him to his "plantation," and
Wider pretence that he had no small change.
Arrowed two dollars and fifty cents. The
aWing man placed the bag in a chest and
dtsired the "landholder" to take the kev
but he protested he would not, hav-
U1 - all faith in his new hand, and accord-
w -!y left. Not returning ut the timestip
uiati-d, some suspicion was awakened, the
examined, and lo ! it contained forty
three bright cents! The fellow speaks both
English and German, the former somewhat

THE GREATEST
I MEDICAL DISCOVERY
OF THE AGE.
DR. KENNEDY, of Roxbury, has discovered
in one of our commoti pasture uetdsa
remedy that cures
Kvt'rj It in l of Humor
from the worst .Scrofula down to a common Pimple.
11 E has tried it in over 1100 eases,and ii.ver fatted ex
| cepl in two cases, (both thunder humor.) tie has
' now in Ins possession over two hundred ceilificxtes of.
• its vitl•-,all within twenty miles of Huston.
| Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing Sore
| Mouth.
One to three bottles will rn'" t he worst kind of Pimples
! on the face
Two in three bottles will clean the system of Biles.
I Two buttles are warranted tu cure the worst Canker
i in lite Mouth and Stomach
Three to five bottleg are warranted to cure ihe worst
i Case of Erysipelas.
tine to two bottles are war ranted to cure all Humor in
the eyes.
Two bullies are warranted to cure Kuuriingof the
| Ears and Blotches among the llair.
Four to six bottles are warranted lu cure corrupt ami
! running Ulcers.
One bottle will cure iscaly Eruption of the Skin.
Two to three bottles me warranted to cure the worst
case of Ringworm.
Two to three bottles arc warranted to cure the most
desperate case of Rheumatism.
Three to four bottle* are warranted to cure the Sat!
Rheum
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case of Scrol
ula
A benefit is always experienced from lite first bottle,
1 and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quanti
{ ty is taken.
, Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles of this in the
vicinity of Bn-iou. I know the effect of it in every case.
; So sure as waier will extinguish fire, so mire will this
i cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it hut that sold an
other; after a trial it always speaks for itself. There
! are two things about this herb that appear* to me *ur-
Prasing ; first that it grows in wor pastures, in some pla
• ce* quite plentiful, and yet its value has never been
known until I discovered it in lb Iti—second, I hat il should
cure all kinds of humor
In order lo give some idea of the sudden rise and great
popularity of the discovery, I w ill state that in April,
1853. I peddled it and sold about six bottles per Jay—in
April, 1854, I sold over one thousand bottles per day of it.
Some of the wholesale Druggists who ha ve been in
1 business twenty and thirty years, say llial nothing in the
annals of patent medicines was ever like it. There is a
universal praise of it from all quarters.
In my own practice I alwayskept it sirictly for humors
—but sinre its introduction asa general family medicine,
great and wonderful virtues have been found in it that I
I never suspected.
Several cases of epileptic fits—a disease which was
always < oiisidered inc urable, have been cured by a few
boiiles. O, what a mercy if it will prove effectual in all
cases of that awful malady—there are few who have
seen more of it than I have.
I know of several cases of Dropsy, all of them aged
I people, cured by it. For the v.irmns disease* of the Liv
er, Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, FeVr.r and Ague,
1 Pain in lite Side. Diseases of the Spine, and particularly
I in disease* of the Kidneys, 4tc., the discovery has done
more good than any medicine ever known.
No change of diet ever necessary—eai the best yon
get and plenty of it.
DIRECTIONS FOB Use.—Adults one table spoonful per
day—Children over 10 years, dessert spoonful—Childten
! from 5 toB year*, tea-spoonful. As no directions can be
applicable to all constitutions, take sufficient to operate
on the bowels twice a day.

The Howard Association, in view of the awfi.l destruc

class of diseases, in all their forms, and to give Medical
Advice GRATIS, to all who apply by letter, with a de
scription of their condition, (age, occupation, habits of
life, tec.) and in cases of extreme poverty to furnish
Medicines Free of Charge, it is needless to add that the
Association commands the highest medical skill of the

mem The Directors, on a review of the past, feel as- j
sured that their labors in this sphere of benevolent effort j
have been of great benefit to the afflicted, especially to
the young, and they have resolved to devote themselves j
with renewed zeal lo this very important but much de
spised cause.

Da. II aroma* treats Consumption, Bioni hit is. I.nryng
tis, Asthma, and all diseases of the Throat by MEDICA
TED INHALATION.
The great point in the treatment of all human maladies
is to gel at ihe disease in a direct maimer. All medicine*
are estimated by their action upon the organ requiring
relief. This is Ihe important fact upon w Inch Inhalation
is based If the stomach is diseased, we take medicine
directly into the stomach. .If the lungs are diseased,
breathe or inhale medicated vapm. directly into them. —
The reason why Consumption and diseases of ihe Lunge
have heretofore resisted all treatment, been because
they were not approached in a direct manner by medicine.
They were intended to be local, and yet they w ere o ad
ministered that they could only act constitutionally, ex
pending their immediate action upon the stomach, whilst
the foul ulcers wilbin the Lungs weie unmolested, k
halation brings the medicine into direct contact wub the
disease, without the disadvantage of any violent action.
Its application is so simple that it may be employed by
the youngest infant or feeblst invalid. Il does not tie
range the stomach, or interfere in the least with the
strength, comfort or business of the patient.
tO-No charge for consultation.
OTHF.R JJISKJISES TREATED.
In relation to the following diseases, either when com
plicated with I nng Affection?, or existing alone, I also
invite consultation- usually finding them PROMPTLY
CURABLE:
PROLAPSUS and ail forms of FEMALE CON PLAINTS.
Irregularities and Weakness.
PALPITATION and other forms of HEART DIB
EABE, I.iver Complaint, Dyspepsia, and all other Dis
eases of Stomach and Bowels, Piles, Sic. &.c.

sy, and all forms of Nervous Disease.

PHILOSOPHY AND FACT.
HOLLO WAY'S PILLS,
THE EXCITING CAUSE OF SICOESS.
lIHE blood is the Life-sustaining agent. Ii furnishes the
coiupoaeats of Best*, bune, mnsile, nerve and imegu
meld. The stomach is its manufactory,,the veins iis dis
tributors, anil the intestines the channel thxough which
the waste matter rejected in its psoductions is expellcd-
Upnit the stomach, the circulation and the bowels, these
Pills act simultaneously, relieving indigestion, purify ing
the fluids, and regui itiug the eicretions.
THE NATIONAL COMPLAINT.
Dyspepsia is the most common disease among all clas
ses in this country. It assume* a thousand-shafies, and
is the primary source of innumerable dangerous maladies;
t but whatever its type or symptoms, however obstinate
Us resistance to ordinary preparations, it yield* readily
, and rapidly to this searching and unerring remedy.
BHJOrS AFFECTIONS.
Tl equantity and lyuahty of the bile are of moat vital
importance to health. L'pon the liver, Ike gland which
secrete* this fluid, these Pills operate specifically, infalli
bly rectifying iis irregulatilies and etT-ctually curing
Jaundiee, Biliou* Reniittant*, and all varieties of dis
ease generated by an unnatural condition of the organ.
BOWEL COMPLAINTS.
Unless the bowels perform their function* properlv, the
whole body suffers. Tens of thousands die Annually of
Dysentery, Diarrhtea, Chronic Constipation, and other
diseases of these waste pipes of the system. The effect
of the Pills upon all intestinal disordeie, whether casual
or epidemic, is a phenomenon in medicine. By following
the primed directions, the most alarming cases of bowel
complaint are promptly controlled.
A WORD TO FEVALES.
The local debility and irregularities which are the es
pecial annoyances of the weaker sex, ant) which, when
neglected, always shorten life, are relieved for the time
being, and preveuted for the time to come, by a course of
ibis mild but thorough alterative.
Hollowafs Pills are the best remedy known in
the world for the following Diseases:
Asthma Diarrhffia indigestion Secondary
Bowel Coot- Dropsy influenza Symptoms
plaints Debility Inflammation Inward weak-
Coughs Fever a.u<i Venereal Af- ness
