BURLINGTON, V T., NOV 12, 1834.
Gentlemen—l suffered for about a year
previous to last spring from a derangement
of the action of the heart, which, like most
others similarly afflicted, I supposed to be an
organic disease, and having seen the Oxygen
ated Bitters highly recommended for use in
such cases, I procured and used a single bot
j tie, with entire success. The disagroeahlo
j symptoms speedily disappeared and I have
i never had any recurrence of them. Being
■ really of opinion that this medicine is of un
questionable value as a cure for Dyspepsia,
(in which opinion I am happy to know that I
agree with many intelligent physicians,) I
have no hesitation in permitting this certifi
cate to bo used m any way that will promote
i its more general use. E. A. STANBIUJRV,

consequence of its more central location

chanical knowledge of building—a know
ledge freely given to all applying—is of
considerable importance in erecting new
school houses. The Normal Class meets
in the Logan school house, and altogether
numbers over twenty. As scholars are ad

ABLSE OF TUE I. ATE POOR DIRECTORS AND
PRESENT PUYSICJ AN.
Mr. Editor—Ever since the passage of the
law ousting the Directors of the Poor from
office because they would not submit to what
the people generally consider an extortionate
demand on the part of the medical profession,
a writer in a paper which delights in an inde
pendent motto, has been putting words togeth
er senseless in their meaning and difficult to
bo understood, excepting an occasional slur
at the honesty and capacity of John Cubbison
and John Peachey, two of the late directors,
and at Dr. Hoover, the present physician.
These directors, it will be borne in mind,
were elected for the express purpose of intro
ducing reform into the Poor House, which
had been of late years grossly mismanaged,
and while endeavoring to carry out their ideas
of reform, the medical gentlemeu of this bor-
unwisely entered into a combination
largely to increase their charges. They may
have been getting less than was justly their
due, but with hundreds of others I think that
at a time of financial difficulties in its man
agement and when the directors were making
efforts to introduce a system to bring the ex
penses into proper bounds, was not the proper
time for yielding to a demand by the doctors
that might have increased the medical charges
from about S2OO to from SSOO to SIOOO per
annum. This estimate I have heard was giv
en by one of the physicians who was a party
to that combination, so that the taxpayers, as
well as the ]>oor ten who are now called upon
by "Justice," alias Dr. SSO Sawleg, can see
how disinterested the gentleman is in crying
"Give! give!" The directors were right in
resisting such a demand at this time, and
would have been false to their position and
to the taxpayers had they submitted. For
this they were ousted, by a law got up in se
crecy, and pushed through the Legislature by
Dr. Bower and others with indecent haste,
and signed by Gov. Packer at a time when
remonstrances were being rapidly signed in
all parts of the county. The functions of the
directors having ceased, the County Commis
sioners uid not make a change, and therefore
In-"Justicc" continues his malevolent thrusts
at the directors and Dr. Hoover. The direc
tors will hardly feel as bad at these thrusts as
they would were they to swallow some of
" Justice's" pills ; and as for the young phy
sician who now has charge of the poor, it is
no more than lair to await the end of his year
and see how many he will " kill or cure" ac
cording to law and physic; how many legs he
will saw off; how many arms chop off, et cot- j
era and so forth, before we condemn him. By
comparing his with " Justice's" administra
tions among the poor, we shall then be ena
bled to decide even when "doctors disagree."
Should this assassin like conduct be contin
ued of attacking these gentlemen, a dose of
jrsTU E to the author may be called forth, the
materials for which can be picked up ten
times over. To the editor I would observe \
that it may do very well to swell up in mde - i
pendente in denouncing an unguarded or half j
joking remark of a clerk in private conversa- ;
tioH, but that it comports more with indepen
denee and propriety to refuse insertions to at
tacks where malice prepense is so self evident.

Exhibition at Kishacoquillas Seminary, i
The spring exhibition of Kishacoquillas
Seminary took place on the evening of Wed- |
nesday, March 31. Notwithstanding an ad- i
mittance fee was charged for the purpose of ;
procuring a library Lr the Institution, an 1
audience as large as could be accommodated
assembled, and at seven o'clock the exercises j
commenced. These consisted of select ora- I
tions, original orations, essays, colloquies, a
pantomime, and music.
The select orations were given with spirit, j
aud in some in>tances with considerable pow '
er. There was a declamatory style too appa :
rent in many of them, but this is an almost I
universal fault with youthful speakers.
Some of the original orations were well
written productions, evincing capacity on the
part of their authors fur becoming quite suc
cessful writers, and the delivery of all was |
energetic and earnest.
The essays were read with considerable I
distinctness, but could not be heard by all the !
audience. If the renders had held their 1
essays before them, for the propriety of the !
thing, and spoken directly to the audience, i
for the yood sense of the thing, all would have j
heard and been satisfied. Some of the essays !
were of marked excellence, and well deserved
to be heard b} T all. The sentiments were no
ble and just, and the style chaste and elegant.
The charming whiteness of the fair readers'
raiment seemed a fit representative of the
purity of their written thoughts.
The two colloquies were abundantly Irish,
and full of mirtli-provoking wit. The parts
were in almost evsry instance admirably sus
tained, and some of them were nearly perfect.
6utne of the scones were sufficiently humor
ous to make one uncomfortable with laughter.
The pantomime was something new here,
and as interesting as novel. The shoemaker
pegging at his boot; the washerwoman puffing
and scarletly blushing over the tub; the
wuodsawyer over his jack; the tailor arranged
Turk fashion; the girl ironing, (and the young
gallant who found his way to her table and—
attention ;) the little girl rocking the cradle ;
the youthful Sambo, without any perceptible
back bone, smoking his cigar with luxurious
satisfaction, aud blacking boots so that their
dark lustre rivaled his own; the soldier who,
after painful straightening and vibrating be
tween long and short, assumes military ac
coutrements and airs; and the old man"who
by dint of strapping kept laborious order—all
were excellently represented. And when,
after the absence of the old man and some
most marvelous dancing, all, in their haste to
be at work when the old man returned, seised
hold of what came first—the shoemaker iron
ing, the washerwoman shoemakiug, etc., the
scene was uproariously ludicrous. One could
"laugh and grow fat" without hindrance, ex
cept for want of room.
The music was somewhat heterogeneous,
but quite interesting. Some of the pieces,
choruses and quartettes, were very beautiful !
and creditably performed.
The exercises were long, over four hours, |
but the large audience gave very good atten
tion to the Inst. Tho feeling of satisfaction
seemed very general, and some were quite
solicitous that the exhibition should be re
peated the following night.
The Hall was tastefully ornamented, and
in the background was a beautifully arranged
and appropriate motto, "Blossoms now; fruit
hereafter."
When again an exhibition as interesting is
given by the students of Kishacoquillas Sem
inary, may I be there to see. H. H.
is somewhat remarkable that the
people of various towns and cities aro grum
bling at gas bills, and that tho growling is
quite as strong where it is $2.25 per thousand
feet a where it is $4.

MRS. WERTZ announces to the public
that she has leased and refitted this well
known stand, where she invites the patronage
of her former friends and the traveling com- \
munity generally. The location of this hotel
is undoubtedly one of the most attractive and
inviting to strangers or families desiring a
temporary summer residence in the mountain
regions of Pennsylvania, and its patrons may
rely implicitly upon everything conducing to
their comfort and happiness being furnished
to the extent of her power, and upon the best
of order and decorum being maintained.
Parties can be accommodated with anything
renuired upon the shortest notice.
The choicest selection of Wines and Liquors
may always be found at her Bar, and her Ta
ble supplied with everything the markets will
afford. MATILDA WERTZ.
