THE SKwraiaaaipaiih [From Godey's Lady's Book for July.] Blackberries. —Preserve these as strawber ries or currants, either liquid or jam, or jelly. Blackberry jelly or jam is an excellent med icine iu summer complaints or dysentery : to make it, crush a quart of fully ripe black berries with a pound of the best loaf sugar, put it over a gentle fire and cook it until thick, then put to it a gill of the best fourth-proof brandy, stir it awhile over the fire, then put it iu pots. Blackberry Syrup. —Make a simple syrup of a pound of sugar to each pint of water, boil it until it is rich and thick, then add to it as many pints of the expressed juice of ripe blackberries as there are pounds of sugar; put half a nutmeg grated to each quart of the syrup ; let it boil fifteen or twenty minutes, then add to it half a gill of fourth-proof brandy for each quart of syrup; set it by to become cold, then bottle it for use. A table spoonful for a child or a wineglass for an adult is a dose. Blackberry Wine. —The following is said to be an excellent receipt for the manufacture of superior wine from blackberries:—Measure your berries and bruise them, to every gallon adding one quart of boiling water. Let the mixture stand twenty-four hours, stirring oc casionally ; then strain off the liquor into a cask, to every gallon adding two pounds of sugar: cork tight, and let stand till following October, and you will havo wine ready for use, without any further straining or boiling, 'hat will make lips smack as they never smacked, under similar influence, before. Blackberry and Wine Cordial. —We avail ourseives of the kindness of a friend to pub lish the following excellent receipt for making cordial, ft is recommended as a delightful beverage, and an infallible specific for diar rhoea or ordinary disease of the bowels : —To half a bushel of blackberries, well mashed, add a quarter of a pound of allspice, two ounces cf cinnamon, two ounces of cloves. Pulverize well, mix, and boil slowly until properly done; then strain or squeeze the juice through homespun or flannel, and add to eaeh pint of the juice one pound of loaf sugar. Boil again for some time, take it off, and, while cooling, add half a gallon of best Cognac brandy. Dose, for an adult, half a gill to a gill; for a child, a teaspoonful or more, according to age. Currants Preserved. —Take ripe currants, free from stems; weigh them, and take the same weight of sugar: put a teacup of sugar to eaeh pound of it; boii the syrup until it is hot and clear; then turn it over the fruit; let it remain one night; then set it over the fire and boil gently until they are cooked and clear; take them into the jars or pots with a skimmer; boil the syrup until rich and thick, then pour it over the fruit. Currants may be preserved with ten pounds of fruit to seven of sugar. Take the stems from seven pounds of the currants, and crush and press the juice from the remaining three pounds; put them into the hot syrup, and boil until thick and rich ; put it in pots or jars, and the next day secure as directed. Red or White Currant Jam. —Bet the fruit be very ripe; pick it clean from the stalks; bruise it, and to every pound put three-quar ters of a pound of loaf sugar; stir it well and boil half an hour, then add the sugar; boil and skim. Green Currant Jam. —Weigh equal portions of unripe red currants and sugar ; set the fruit over the fire, at some distance, with a small part of the sugar, breaking the fruit a little that the juice may prevent it burning; . stir it conti!#sally and let it remain for a quarter of an hour, then add the rest of the sugar, and boil up for a quarter of an hour longer. i PLUaiBEVG. / 1 EOKGE MILLER informs the citizens i vJT of Lewistown that he has commenced the above business in connection with his office aB Superintendent of the Water Company, and is now ready to put in NEW HYDRANTS, AKE REPAIRS AT OLD oriPS, or do &ny other ! work pertaining to the business.

Co , Wholesale Druggists, Philadelphia, for the sale of this Branrlv in Mifllui county, we cor fident'y offer it to the public as a pure and unadulterated article, as the following certificates will prove: CHEMICAL INSPECTOR'S OFFICE, J 08 Bixih at., Cincinnati, March, 1857. y This will certify thai I have this day inspected two separate lots of Catawba Brandy, one in barrels and one in botlles, manufactured by Laurilzr Lyons, and sold by his sole agent, J Jacob, at the Depot, No 90, opposite the Burnet House, and 143 West Third street, Cincinnati, and find them both PURE and T nsi: from all poisonous or deleterious drugs, ami as such have marked the same as the law directs. Given under my hand at my office. [Signed.] HIRAM COX, M D., Inspector of Alcoholic Liquors, tcc. NEW YORK, 93 Prince St., July 28, 1837. Dear Sir:—l have received a bottle of Lyons' Pure Ohio Catawba Brandy, furnished by Mr. A. Kalston, Jr., of Lockport, N. Y„ for analyzation, and I find it to con tain only those ingredients which exist in PIRE BRANDY. The proportion of alcohol obtained from it is 47 00. I believe this sample to be pure Brandy without adultera tion—the flavor of it is delicate and peculiar. [Signed ] JAS. R. CHILTON, M. IV, Chemist. The OHIO CATAWBA BRANDY not only equals but even excels the best imported Brandies in purity and flavor. It is in fact the BEST Brandy known. This statement is fully corroborated by the certificates of many of our most distinguished analytical Chemists. The want of pure Brandy has long been felt in this coun try, and ibe introduction of an article of such quality as to supersede the sale and use of those vile compounds hitherto sold uuder the name of Brandy, can only be re garded as a great public good. The Catawba Brandy possesses all the good qualities claimed for the best im ported liquor, and is of perfect purity and superior flavor. It is therefore fully entitled to tne patronage of the pub* lie. We feel confident that its reception in this Elate will be as favorable as that which it has met with in the Great West, und that the tune is not far distant when the superiority of our own liquors will put an end to their importation from abroad. For Medicinal purposes this Brandy has no rival, and has long been needed. It ia a sovereign and sure reine dy for Dyspepsia', Flatulency, Low Bplrils, Languor, General Debility, dec.

TIIE undersigned having purchased the right for this Cement in Mifflin and Cen tre counties, are now prepared to furnish and put it on roofing wherever desired—the roof being sheeted by the owner. Scientific men under tho direction of government, and ar chitects and builders in various parts of the country, for years have been studying and experimenting to discover some composition or article for roofing, which would resist the changes of our climate, and would unite the qualities of Imperviousness to Water, Incom bustibility, Durability and Cheapness. No article now in use possesses these qualities. Shingles are not fire proof, and cannot ho used upon flat roofs. Slate can only be used upon steep roofs. The contraction, expansion and rusting of metallic roofs are so great in this changeable climate that they soon become worthless, or the repairs will cost more than a new roof. The various cements and com positions which have been introduced, can be supplied only to very flat roofs, and they are all so affected by the action of the weather that they will melt and run in summer and crack in winter, and in a short time become crumbly and worthless. The inventor of the Galvanic Cement has labored twenty years to obviate these difficulties, and it i 9 believed by those who have had opportunities to test the matter, that he has entirely succeeded. As now applied, First—lt is completely impervious to water. Water may continually stand upon the roof without affecting it in the least. Second—lt is fire-proof, it is so incombus tible that it will afford ample and perfect pro tection against fire, sparks and burning shin gles from another building immediately ad joining. Third—lt is durable. It is not injured by atmospheric changes, having been tested for several years by the Patentee, at Syracuse, New York. Fourth—lt is cheap. Iloofs will be put on for about half the cost of tin, and will last much longer. Fifth- Repairs are easily and cheaply made. Sixth —lt is sufficiently elastic to entirely resist the expansion and contraction by heat and cold, and will remain perfect and solid in the warmest and coldest weather. Seventh—lt is adapted to all kinds of roofs, either flat or steep. Eighth—lt is valuable for repairing old roofs. Old shingle roofs may be covered without removing the shingles. Old metalic roofs can be made perfectly tight and secure. Ninth—lt is especially adapted to all kinds of seaming around battlements, sky-lights and chimneys, and for the lining of eave troughs and gutters. Roofs which have given trouble for years, and which have continued to leak in spite of all efforts, can be made perfectly secure by this cement. Tenth—lt has been proved to Le the best article ever used for covering car tops and steamboat decks. Eleventh—This cement applied to new tin roofs preserves them from rusting, by fur nishing a coat which is at once impervious to water and an almost perfect non-conductor of heat. Twelfth—lt is the only roofing material patented which contains India rubber and gutta percha. For a specimen of this cement we invite owners of property to call at our mills, where a single coating , put on in December last, has kept the buildings perfectly dry through the winter. E. E.

Have in many cases defied the skill, heretofore, of the best medical practitioners in tbe world, and many cases have been abandoned as incurable. Dr. J. WILLIAMS, Chemist and Pharmaceutist, after studying closely the practices of Drs. Abernethy and J. Johnston, England, and observing the nature of the dis ease in all its stages, during a sojourn in the southern and western portions of the United States, where it pre vails to a greater extent than elsewhere, procured from South America certain roots and herbs from which he prepared an "Elixir," which, after eighteen years' use in private practice, lias proved itself more efficacious in the cure of Dyspepsy than any medicine that nas ever been prepared in any age or clime for the same purpose. Having submitted it, willi an explanation of its compo nents, to a number of physicians of Philadelphia, among whom were the late Drs Joseph Hartshorns and J. C. Morton, it has received their entire approval, and many of the medical faculty are now not only prescribing it for their patients but are using it themselves,personally and in their families. As a tonic it is unequalled, and its properties are of so invigorating a nature that it is given with perfect safety and success to the most tender infants. The Elixir is very gradual, but rerlain in its action upon the organs of digestion, the increased secretions of the liver, pancreas and mucous membranes of the stomach, and requires that only one dose be taken in twenty-four hours; for confirmed Dyspepsv can only be cured by grad ually restoring the organs of digestion to a healthy stale The great success met with in curing the most aggravated cases of Dyspepsy, accompanied sometimes with a high grade of hypochondriasis, has established the most un bounded confidence in the curative properties of this Elixir, in corroboration of which rga.l the following testi monials : ATTESTATION —We, having used Williams' Anti-Dys peptic Elixir with the most perfect satisfaction and suc cess, take great pleasure in recommending it to all per sons suffering with Dyspepsy, as we are fully convinced of its rnoet estimable qualities in restoring the digestive powers, removing all pains and uneasiness, and iinpatt ing a healthy tone to the stomach.
