CHRISTMAS.
This festival was observed by the Teachers
and Scholars of the Lutheran Sabbath School
of Lewistown, by a very pleasant meeting in
the church on Christmas evening, it was
the regular monthly meeting of the Teachers,
and after singing and prayer, the order of
business was called up and disposed of. The
minutes of the previous meeting were read
by E. K. Schwartz, Secretary ; an Essay on
: the scriptures by Geo.W. Frcscoln ; also, a
! report of the Visiting Committee of the We st
Ward. An address on Christmas was then
delivered by Col. John Hamilton, Superin
tendent of the tirst School, and President of
: the Sabbath School leachcrs' Association.
; The address was well prepared and afforded
I much instruction in relation to the birth of
the Saviour, the object of his mission, and the
| benefits derived by a lost and ruined world
by his coming amongst us. In order to afford
your readers an idea of the theme of the ad
dress, I have beeD permitted by the author to
make the following extracts :
" When Christ came he found the world in
a deplorable condition. It was lying in dark
ness, and sin ran riot over its fair dominions;
the governments were all in the hands ol un
godly men, the people of God were subject to
the different political powers and compelled
to wear the yoke of bondage; but with Christ
came tiie proclamation that the chair of the
tyrant sh uld he broken, and the captives set
free. During the days of the Apostles the
work of redemption was vigorously prosecuted
and the face of things began to wear a differ
ent aspect; large numbers were converted
into the faith ot the gospel, and churches
werer established in a great number of places,
aud fttus the seeds of the gospel were sown
broadc ast over the world.
"But after these servants of God were
gathered t-r their fathers, Anti-Christ prevail
ed, and the Christians w re driven into the
%rilderm*is and the caves and dens of the
earth. The it gioiis of the Prince of Dark
ness occupied their places, and a dreadful
night of darkness and glooin of a thousand
years duration hung upon the world. There
were a. few stars ♦.flight stili in existence, but
they eould not penetrate the gloom. The sa
cred writings were preserved as by a miracle
and the customs and hal its of the Christians
kept up by a devoted few. The banner of
Emanuel trailed in the dust all this time, but
liis warriors were only s.'urn her in jr. At the
end of the thousand yeats a great luminary
arose—die darkness began gradually to dis
appear, and t*n thousand Christian warriors
rushed iato the field. The J'rince of the
lioueeof David again asserted tiis dominion,
and with Luther as his captain, the hosts of
hell were made to tremble and finally to re
treat. The Star of Bethlehem again arose,
never to set till the kingdom of this world
sirali baeuuttf the kingdoms of God and His
Christ.
" The Pilgrim Fathers were led to this
western wurhi by the glimmering of that
Glorious Star, and here it shiries in all the
effulgence -of ite beauty and power. When
we took at our social conditiou and compare
it with any otlicr portion of the world, either
past present, bow ought we to rejoice and
ex-claim, 'Our lives have fallen in pleasant
places and we have inCeed a goodly heritage.'
And all tlds has rcsu'ted from the religion
given to the world by J< sus.
"It was aliuogtirupaKni >le to shine as bright
stars under the old dispensation, but now
under the blaze of the t ispel of Christ we
can qualify ourselves to shine as stars of the
first magnitude, 'none dating to molest us or
make us afraid.' Old things have passed
away, and beh-uid, all things have become
new. Under the marvelous light of the gos
pel the world is mating rapid .strides in right
eousness and holiness, (the opinion of some
to the coutrary notwithstanding,) and the
nineteenth century above ail others is justly
distiziguiKhed for all that is good and noble ;
and tor ail this we are indebted to the man of
li"il.iehi*fu and Calvary. How would it he
with our beiiotyj country if Chris , had never
been bun 'i It w<u!d IHJ as it was from cri
ation's morn. The savage and wile! beast
would be roaming unmolested over our hills
and along our valleys. There never would
have been a LutLer, a Pilgrim, or a iVlay-
Flowec. Our Declaration of Independence
would never have soon the Sight of day, and
our constitution, that great beacon light of
nations, would he slumbering in its original
elements, and gross darkness would cover the
fair face of our now happy countrv. The
name of Wasnington would never have been
heard of, and this world would have been
burned up, without its inhabitants ever having
tasted the sweets of liberty.
"How then should we keep this festival?
Certainly not in drunkenness and rioting—not
in feasting, nor in the indulgence of frivolous
amusements—but we should rejoice and give
thanks unto the Lord that he gave us his well
beloved 8011 on this day, and that with him
came the gift of eternal lile. We might in
dulge in some of the pleasantries of Christ
mas, but always with reverence and respect.
It is indeed the great day of lilierty to the
world, and for this we should rejoice, ' fur
whom Christ makes free is free indeed.'"
After the address, the Choir delighted the
large and attentive audience with some of
their usual enchanting music. Dr. 11. Martin,
Superintendent of the Infant School belong
ing to the same Congregatiou, delivered a
short address, showing an interesting table of
that portion of the schools of the rapid pro
gress it has made during the hist year, who
was followed by the Pastor, ltev. H. Baker.
1 he audience wero then dismissod, after sing
ing hy the Choir, all seeming well pleased
with the exercises.
1 hope these annual meetings may be kept
up, as 1 feel satisfied that the children present
on this occasion as well as the parents, will
never forget the plcasaut and interesting in
structions and impressions received at this
meeting. LOGAN.
For the Gazette.
In casting our eye over the news of the
day, we are startled at the number of crimes
ot every degree which present themselves be
mi its and what is still more startling is
T 0 . 1 th . at il I ar Re proportion of those en
gaged in violating the laws of (Jod and man,
belong to the youthful portion of community.
Is it not true that the youth of this generation
enjoy superior advantages for intellectual im
provement? Is it not true that a symmetrical
development of all the faculties will hive a
tendency to produce elevation of sentiment
and purity ol 44 walk and conversation V'
These things arj true; but it is equally true
that if these advantages arc turned in an
improper channel a greater evil will be en
tailed upon community than ignorance itself,
lor we hold that a man merely intellectually
educated is only made more powerful for evil.
A pure morality must underlie our system of
education, or it will bring upon us sudden
destruction. Many are the means in which
moral statements may he instilled into the
youthful mind, but as "an ounce of preven
tion is as good as a pound of cure," it will
suffice our present purpose if we can call the
attention of parents to a habit which is at
tended with the most destructive consequences
the habit of allowing their sons to he in the
street after uii/h/full. I can conceive of no
habit which is so certain to be followed by
evil effects. It carries in its train all those
lesser crimes which aro but the precursors of
greater. It is the preparatory school for the
accomplished villain. Permit a boy to he out
ar. night and hear the bad, vulgar and profane
language which may nightly bo heard at the
curriers of our streets, and however correct
may have been his training at home he is al
most sure to imbibe principles which cause
bitter tears of sorrow to his parents in after
years. Much of the rowdy spirit which char
acterizes the large cities may he attributed to
the liabii of boys in congregating, nightly,
about engine houses and similar places; aiid
much of the wickedness of our small towns
and villages may le traced to the habit of
allowing boys to be out at night. Let parents
see to it then, that their children are around
their own firesides at night, studying useful
lessons, reading interesting books, or engaged
in some quiet amusement. Home should be
the most attractive place for children. That
it may be such parents should snare no pains
to make it plensantand agreeable. And now
as we are commencing a new year and adopt
ing new rules, let parents adont this rule,
which they ought rigidly adhere to —that they
wiil not permit a son to go in the street at
night to engage in play with other hoys. Such
a rule, if put in practice, would prevent much
disorderly c< nduct and many of those crimes
which astonish us by the youtbfulness of the
offenders. S.

THE GREATEST
MEDICAL DISCOVERY
OF THE AGE.
DR. KENNEDY, of Roxbury, has discovered
in one of our common pasture tceedsa
remedy that cures
Every kim! of* Humor
from llie worst Scrofula down lo a common Pimple.
TIE hastried itin over 1100 cases,and never failed ex
cept in two cases, (both thunder humor.) He has
now in his possession over two hundred certificates of
its virtue,all witltin twenty miles of Boston.
Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing Sore
Mouth.
One to three trollies v ill cure the worst kiwi of Pimples
on the Face
Two to three bottles will clean the system of Biles.
Two bottle* are warranted to cure the worst Canker
in the Month and ritoiuach.
Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the worsi
case of Erysipelas.
f rue to t wo Iroltle. arc warranted is cure all Humor in
the eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure Running of the
Ear* and Blotches among the If nr.
Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and
running I'lcerx
One bottle will cure ricaly Eruption of the Skin.
Two to three bottles are warranted lo cure the worst
case of Ringworm.
Two to three bottles are warranted lo cure the most
desperate rase of Rheumatism.
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the Salt
R Ileum.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case of Scrof
ula
A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle,
and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quanti
ty is li ken.
Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles oflhis in (he
vicinity of 80-ton. I know the effect of it in every case,
rio sure as water w ill extinguish fire, sosnre will this
cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sold an
■ uher; after a trial it alway* apeafcs for itself There
are two things about this herb that appears to me sur
prising ; first that if grows in our pastures, in some pla
ecs quite plentiful, and yet its Value has never been
known until I discovered it in ISttt—second,that il should
cure all kinds of humor.
In order to give some idea of the sudden rise and great
popularity of the discovery, I will stale that in April,
1863,1 peddled it and sold about six bottles pier day—in
April, 1854.1 sold over one thousand bottles per day of it.
Some of the wholesale Druggists who have been in
business twenty and thirty years, say that nothing in I lie
annals of patent medicines was ever like it. There is a
universal praise of it from all quarters.
In my own practice I always kept it strictly for humors
—but since its introduction asa genera) family medicine,
great and wondeifu! virtues have been found in it that 1
neversuspected.
rieveral cases of epileptic fits—a disease which was
always . unsiriered incurable, have been rured by a few
bottles. O, what a mercy if it will prove effectual in ail
cases of that awful malady—there are few who have
seen morn of it than I huvc.
I know of several cases uf Dropsy, all of them age.*?
people, cured by it. For the various diseases of the Liv
er. riic k Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague,
Pain in '.he Side. Diseases of the riplne, and particularly
in diseases of the Kidneys, fcc., the discovery has done
more goodtiuui any medicine ever known.

| TED INHALATION.
| Thp great point in the treatment of all human maladies
is to get at the disease in a direct manner. All medicine*
are cstfoiated by their action upon the organ requiring
relief. This is the important fact upon tt 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 vapors directly into the in.—
The reason why Consumption and diseases of the Lungs
have heretofore resisted all ireatßienl, has been because
tley were not approached in a direct manner by medicine.
They were intended to be local, and yet they were so ad
ministered that they could only act constitutionally, ex
pending their immediate action upon the stomach, whilst
the foul ulcers within the Lungs were unmolested. In
halation brings the medicine into direct contact w lilt (lie
disease, without the disadvantage of any violent action,
lis application is so simple that it may be employed by
the youngest infant or feeblest invalid. It does not de
range the stomach, or interfere in the least with the
strength, comfort or business of the patient.

PHILOSOPHY AND FACT.
THE EXCITING CAUSE OF SICKNESS.
TRIE blood is the life-sustaining sgent. It furnishes the
J- components of fiesh, bone, muscle, nerve and integu
ment. The stomach is its manufactory, the veins hs dis
tributors, and the intestines the channel through which
the waste matter rejected in its productions is expelled
Upon the stomach, the circulation and the bowels, these
Pills act simultaneously, relieving indigestion, purifying
the fluids, and regul nine the excretions.
THE NATIONAL COMPLAINT.
Dyspepsia is the most common disease among all clas
ses in this country. It assumes a thousand shapes, and
is the primary source of innumerable dangerous maladies;
but whatever its type or symptoms, however obsiinate
its resistance lo ordinary- preparations, it yields readily
and rapidly to this searching and unerring remedy.
BILIOUS AFFECTIONS.
Tle quantity and quality of the bile are of most vita!
importance to health. Upon the liver, Ihe gland which
secrete* this fluid, these I'ills operate specifically, infalli
bly rectifying its irregularities and effectually curing
Jaundice, Bilious Remitlaiits, and all the varieth s of dis
ease generated b v an unnatural condition of the organ.
BOWEL COMPLAINTS.
Unless the bow els perform their functions properly, the
w hole body suffer*. Tens of thousands die annually of
Dysentery, Diarrlnra. Chronic Constipation, and other
diseases iff these waste pipes of the system The effect
of the Pills upon all intestinal disorders, whether casual
or epidemic, is a phenomenon in medicine. By follow it g
the printed directions, the most alarming cases of bowel
complaint are promptly controlled.
A WORD TO FEMALES.
The local debility and irregularities which are the es
pecial annoyances of the weaker sex, and which, w hen
negli cted, always shorten life, are relieved fur the time
being, and prevented for the time to come, by a course of
this mild hut thorough alterative.
Holloicay's Pills are the best remedy known in
the world for the following Diseases :
Asthma Diarrhoea Indigestion Secondary
