[ tier tea >i and Republican Strength. — j
jhe Cincinnati Gazette, speaking of the ;
of a Democrat to Congress from
St. Louis district by reason of the di
t ;jon of the strength of the opposition be
:,wi) the American and Republican can- 1
{dates, says:
' So long as the opposition keeps divided j
, :0 (wo nearly equal segments the result will ,
"very much the same to the Administration |
y;f it had a majority. We hope that a little j
lisdom will be learned by experience."
To this the Louisville .Journal adds :
"Th e Gazette is a Republican paper. We
jope that counsel will not be lost upon its po
iiieal friends. A thorough union of the true
s en. the conservative men, of all parties, is
-acticable and desirable, and without it,
j,re can be no just hope of the deliverance
if the country from Lncofoco misrule."
Who are for the In ion! — The follow

- Who are for the Union ?" —'• The Hon.
Ta. L. Yancey, perhaps the mostinfluen
al Democrat in the South, is devoting all

si leagues for the dissolution of the 1 Ti
ts. lie has formed and published a con
ation and laws for his leagues, and the
vmbcr of members is said to be daily and

■ : rs of the South, Mr. Prvor, the Hich
j.'iid Sreeater, is the only one who denoun-
Yancf-y's movement, and that h< de
inces it avowedly upon the ground that

SST-Qn Saturday, says the St. Louis
Democftit, a stranger made his appearance
in Lagrange, Missoltli, and after making
unsuccessful efforts to obtain employment,
resolvfed to commit suicide. Obtaining a
pistol, he placed the iuuzzle to his head
and discharged the contents into his brain.
I pon examination by a Competent surgeon
it was ascertained that the ball passed
through his skull between the eyes, and
lodged in the back part of the head. Part
of the brain tfras scattered over the front
of his hat. He was conveyed into the of
fice of Mr. Gantt, of that city, and medi
cal aid quickly called to the assistance of
the sufferer. After lying in an insensible
condition during the day, he recovered
sufficiently to give the particulars which
led to the commission of the act. He
gave his name as Brown, and claimed
to be a native of Memphis, Tenn. Being
poor and friendless, he had not eaten any
thing since he left Cairo, a day or two prev
ious. Discouraged at not receiving em
ployment, and too proud to beg, lie deter
mined to place himself bey'ond tbe pale of
physical want, and shot himself as above
stated, and now comes the most singular
portion of this most extraordinary affair.
Notwithstanding the loss of a portion of
the brain and the perforation of the skull
by the bullet, Mr. Brown is in a rapid way
towards recovery. On Thursday he was
able to sit up in bed and converse iutelli- j
gently with all who called on liini.
The Place fur Fishermen. —Mr. Wni.
Medary, who recently went from Heading to
Freeport, Illinois, writes to the Heading
Adler an account of a fishing excursion in
which he and a number of Berks county
people participated. Mr. M. says that he
and several others caught five pike whose
average weight was twenty pounds each.
They also caught 300 cat fish, whose weight
on an average was IS pounds each, in a
small stream called "Preston's Creek," about
four miles from Freeport. These are con
sidered small fish in comparison to some
caught there.
A certain one horse editor seems delighted
with Hate. Pre haps he expects to secure a
shower thereby.

WEST'S
Patent Gaivanic Cement
CL> If 1 £1 lea
fjMIR undersigned having purchnsed the
_L right fur this Cement in MitHin and Cen
tre counties, are now prepared to furnish una
put it on roofing wherever desired—the roof
being sheeted by the owner. Scientific men
under the direction of government, and ar
chitects and builders in v .rious 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, aDd would unite the
qualities of Imperviousncss to Water, 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 thoy 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—it is completely impervious to water.
AVater 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. Roofs 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 fur 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 cave
troughs and gutters. Roofs which have given
trouble for years, and which have continued
to leak in spite of all efforls, 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
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.

property will please address

NEW YOUK, 93 Prince si., July 28, 1837.
Dear Sir; —t have received a bottle of Lyons' Pure
Ohio Catawba Brandy, furnished by Mr A Ralston, Jr.,
of Lock port, N. \ „ for analy zation, and I find it to i on
tain only those ingredients which exist in pi ne 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 ami peculiar.
[Signed ] JAU. R. CHILTON, M l> , Chemist.
Tile OHIO CATAWBA BRANDY not only equals but
even cxrel? the best imported Brandies in purity and
flavor. It is HI f.tct the BEST Brandy known. This
statement is fully corroborated by the certificates of
many of our most distinguished analytical Chemists.
I'hr want of pure Brandt lias long been f- It in thin cnun
try, and tin- introduction of an article of such quality as
to supersede the sale and use of those viie compounds
hitherto sold under Ihe name of Brandy, can only he re
girded as a great public good. The Catawba Brandy
possesses all the good qualities claimed for the hest im
ported liquor, and is of perfect purity and superior flivor.
It is therefore fully entitled to the patronage of lite pnb
lie. We feel confident that its recepiion in (his Slate
will he as favorable as thai whicii it has met with in tin
fJreat West, and that the time is not far distant when
the superiority of our own liquors will put an end to
their importation from abroad.

PROFESSOR WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE.
We would rati the attention of all, old and young, to
lies wonder!"rl preparation which tun s back to its origi
nal color gray hair, covers the head with a luxuriant
growth, removes the dandruff, itching, and all cutaneous
eruptions, causes a continual flntv of the natural fluids,
and hence, if used as a regular dressing fa ihe hair wPI
preserve iis color, and keep it from falling to extreme old
age, io all its natural beauty. We call then upon the
bald, the gray, r,r diseased in scalp, to use h ; and surely
I he young will not, as they value the flowing locks or the
witching curl, ever be without it. Us praise is upon the
tongue of thousands. The agent for Prof Wood's ILitr
Restorative in New Haven, received the following letter
in regard to the Restorative a few weeks since :
DEEP RIVER, Cons., July 23, 1 Sif>.
Mr. Leavenworth—Sir:— I have been troubled with
dandruff" or scurf on niv head for more lhan a year, my
hair began to come out, scurf and hair together. I saw
in a New Haven peper about 'Wood's Hair Restorative*
as a cure. I called at your store on the Ist of April last,
and purchased one bolllc to try it, and I found to my sat
isfaction it Was ihe tiling; it removed ihe scurf and new
hair began to grow; it is now two or three inches in
length where it was ALL off. 1 have great faith in it. 1
wish you to send me two bottles more by Mr Post, Ihe
hearer of this. I don't know as any of she kind is used
in this plf c ; you may have i mat kcl for many bottles
alter ii is known here. Yours with respect,
RUFUrS PRATT.

Prof. Wood—Dear Sir: —Your Hair Restorative is pro
ving itself beneficial to inc. The front, and also Ihe hack
part of my head almost lost its covering—in fait BALP.
I have used hut two half pint bottle 3 of your Restorative
ai.d now the top of my head is well studded with a prom
ising crop of young hair, and Ihe front is also receiving
its benefit. 1 have tried other preparations without any
benefit whatever. I think from my own personal recoin
mcmlalion I can induce many others to try it
Yours respectfully, D R. THOMAS, M. D.,

i'rof. O J. Wood—As you are about to manufacture
and vend your latently discovered Hair Restorative, I
will state, for whomsoever it may concern, that 1 have
used it and known others to use it—that 1 have for sev
eral years been in the habit til" using other Hair Ueslora
tiver, and that I find yours vastly superior to any other 1
know. It entirely rle.anses the head of dandruff, and
with one month's proper use will restore any person's
hair to th original youthful color and texture, giving it a
healthy, soft and glossy appearance ; and all this without
discoloring the bauds that apply It, or the dress on which
it drops. ! would therefore recommend its use lo every
one desirous of having .a fino color and texlure to hair.

GREAT IMPROVEMENT
IN
eCCEIHG- i
Consumption of Smoke & Gns & Sating of Fuel!
fPHE subscriber takes pleasure in offering to
JF his customers a new Patented Gas-burning
Cooking Stove, undoubtedly the beststovc made.
It is well known that all inflammable matter
requires a certain amount of air to support com
bustion, and if the supply is insufficient it is
impossible to produce a lianie. The heat of
the fire, in ordinary cooking stoves, decomposes
the fuel, and as all the fresh air is admit!ed'uti
der the grate, its oxygen is exhausted before if
has passed through the fire chamber. The close
flues at the top of the stove then act as an ex
tinguisher, tending to put out the fire instead of
assisting the combustion. A large portion of
the fuel, therefore, passes off in the shape of
smoke, clogging up the flues of the stove so as
to impede the draft and interfere with the ba
king,—or of invisible gas which combines with
the lime and so destroys the mortar of the
chimneys, loosening the bricks, and exposing
the dwellings to the danger of fire.
The introduction of an additional supply of
cold air would cool the gas below the igniting
temperature, but by the proper application
above the fire of air previously heated to a tem
perature of several hundred degrees (which i*
one of the prominent features of the patent;
the gases are inflamed in numerous jets, and
their combustion is sufficient to heat the oven,
even if the draft through the fire chamber ii
entirely closed. In addition to the ordinary di
rect draft under the grate and through the fire
chamber, the gas-burner has an additional draft
through the top plates, which is of itself suffi
cient to maintain combustion. The upper draft
not only consumes the gases, but it helps to
strengthen and preserve the ce.ntre pieces whie*t
arc most exposed to the direct action of the
lire, and which arc made double instead of the
usual single plates. By means of this draft
alone, all the operations of cooking can be car
ried on when the fuel is but partially ignited,
and the fuel consequently burns more slowly
and more economically. A sufficient evidence
of the effect of the gases in heating the oven is
found in the fact that the ovsn will be ready
for baking even before the fire is thoroughly
kindled, and much sooner than in any other.
There is scarcely a doubt that before long
the Gas-burning Cooking Stoves w ill supercede
all others. The operation is so perfect and its
consumption of fuel so small in comparison
with oth"r cooking stoves, and its heal so easily
regulated, (burning more or less as desired,)
that every one who uses one of these stoves will
have nothing else. For sale by
