TOUR uml.-rsigm.!, having perfected an arrangement for
-L the attachment of a Gum Spring to the Tubes and

and all others interested in the growing of Wheat and
other grains, thai lie is prepared to furnish GRAIN
DRILLS, with the above article attached, at the shortest
notice, at hi* Foundry, in McVeytown, Pa. Seeders have
become an almost indispensable article to the Farmer,
and In: will find that the attachment of the Gum Spring
will enhance its value at least one-half. All the deien
tion and trouble caused by the breaking of wooden pins '
is entirely dona away with by this arrangement, and a
: man, or b >y, cm perform nearly double the labor thai he I
, r.onld under the old plan, with much greater ease,both to j
, himself and horses. There need be no fearof the Spring '
breaking, for if there is an article that w ill neither break, I
; rot, or wear out, the Guui Spring is that article, and I
hazard nothing In saying tliul my Gram Drill is the sim- j
i plest in construction, most economical in performance,
j and therefore the most durable ever offered to the agrl
| cultural public The feed is so arranged thai it will sow
h If. >L 1)< and 2 bushels per acre. Persons desiring

WEST'S
Patent Galvanic Cement
c£> Ix 2 ®©ranig' a
PIAUE undersigned having purchased the
1. 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 the direction of government, and ar
chitects and buiiders in various parts of the
couutry, 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 Hate?-, Incom
bustibility, Durability and Cheapness. No
article now in use possesses these qualities.
Shingles are not fire proof, and cannot be 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 is 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 tire-proof. It is so incombus
tible that it will afford ample and perfect pro
tection against tire, sparks and burning shin
gles from another building immediately ad
joining.
Third—lt is durable. It is not injured bj- i
atmospheric changes, having been tested for j i
several years by the Patentee, at Syracuse, 1
New York. f
Fourth—lt is cheap. Roofs will be put on I j
for about half the cost of tin, and will last f
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, '
cither fiat or steep.
Eighth—lt is valuable for repairing old
roofs. Old shingle roofs may be covered ,
without removing the shingles. Old metalie ■
roofs can be made perfectly tight and secure. j
Ninth—lt is especially adapted to all kinds i
of seaming around battlements, sky-lights
and chimneys, and fur 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 be 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- j
nishing a coat which is at once impervious to j
water and an almost perfect non-conductor of
heat.
Twelfth—lt is the only roofing material
patented which contains India rubber and
gutta percha.

HOLLO"WAY'S OINTMENT.
Circular to the Slcfe.
r PFIE fiist hospital surgeons and medical publicists of
1- Europe admit the unparalleled anti inflammatory and
healing pioperties of this Ointineni; governments sanc
tion its use in their naval arid military services ; and the
masses in this roiintry and throughout the world repose
the utmost contjdenee in its curative properties. It pen
etrates the sources of inflammation and corruption which
underlie lite external evidences of disease, and neutral
ize the fiery elements which feed ac.d exasperate the
malady.
Rheumatism, Scrofula, Erysipelas.
These are among the most terrible and agonizing di
seases of the muscles, the fleshy fibre and the skin ; yet
in their worst forms, and when seemingly incurable, tln-y
invariably disappear under a persevering application of
this soothing, healing antidote to pain and inflammation
Salt Rheum, Fever Sores, Stiff Joints.
In cases of Balt llheuni, where medical waters,lotions,
and every recipe of the pharmacopo-a have proved use
less, the Ointment will accomplish a thorough ?ure. Ft -
vcr Sores heal quickly under Us influence, and its ir-lav
ing effect upon contracted sinews is truly wonderful.
Discharging fleers.
A most remarkable and happy change is produced to
the appearance of malignant ulcers alter a tew applied
tions of this Ointment. The surrounding r< tiness van
ishes, and granules of healthy flesh begin to take the-,
place of the discharged matter. This process goes on
more or leas rapidly until the oriflce is tilled up with sound
materia!, and the ulcer radically cured.
A Houl (o ffothers.
The young are most frequent sufferers from externa)
injuries, and therefore every mother should have ihta
healing preparation constantly at hand. It is an absolute
specific for sore breasts, and quickly removes the encrus
ted sores which sometimes disfigure the beads and faces
of children.
Significant Facts.
This Ointment is universally used on board the Atlan
tic and Pacific whaling fleet as a cure for scorbutic affec
lions, and as the best possible remedy fi wounds and
bruises. Large supplies of it have recently been ordered
by the Sultan of Turkey for hospital purposes.
