Terrible Accident on Lake Michigan.
Curc.vm, Sept- s—The stew in er Lady Elgin
vat run into this morning by a schooner off
AVaukegau, and sunk within twenty minutes
ster the collusion took place.
The clerk of the steamer Lady Elgin, who
is among the survivors, makes the following
statement:
"The Lady Elgin left Chicago at half past
eleven o'clock on Friday for Lake Superior.
Among the passengers were the members of
the Union Guard of Milwaukee, composing
part of some two hundred and fifty excursion
ists fro.ll that city. At half past two o'clock
this (Saturday) morning,the schooner Augus
la, of 0.-wego, came in collision with the Li
Iv Eigia when about ten utiles front shore.
The vessel struck the steamer at the midships
gangway on the larboard side. The two vessels
separated instantly, and the Augusta drifted
by ;n th ■ darkness. At the moment of the
■ llisi n there was music and dancing going
oin the forward cabin. In an instant after
th > crash all was still, and in half an hour
tin steamer sunk. 1 past through the cabins;
Tie ladies were pale but silent; there was not
i cry or shriek. No sound was heard but the
rush of the steam and die surge of the heavy
sea. Whether the ladies w-••• no* fully nwaie
of their danger, or whether their appalling
situation made th m speechls--, J cannot tell.

greatest "beet" on record thus
Gr this fall is the beat Breckinridge sustain
■'d in Kentucky at the recent election. 25,000
majority against him in his own State is
lather a gloomy beginning for the left handed
candidate.
SSL.Did nut the Democrat know last week
w 'heu it published the Dutch skull story
gainst Gol. C'urtin, that it was retracted in
f'l! by the Aaronsburg Beriehter, which or
'ginated it. which retraction lias appeared in
b.e Bellufunte papers.
fife"Douglas has been making spieeches at
Philadelphia, Baltimore, Harrishurg, Read
!rg, &e. in which he is scoring Breckinridge
as a disorganizvr and the candidate of the dis
unionists. Breckinridge has also taken the
stump, but has thus far only proven one thing,
namely, that he always opposed emancipation
"■''l favored eternal slavery.
■ 'he mum Conferees of this congres
-1 district met at Lock Haven last week,
"id nominated R.diert Fleming of Williams
■ f l ii' 8 ',^ e ' r candidate for Congress. lie is
sti' 1 " blooded Lecompton democrat, who
a it vif°™ e °* l^e count ' es two years ago
lIIL A There will be another Hale
ab °ut the 9th of next month.
&£?*"' £ in the Democrat of last wet k
must count largely on the gullibility of the
people in asserting that not a dKunumGt
can be named who sup -its Breckitnldge.
W hat is A ancey, the leading spirit of the
Baltimore secession convention, but. a dis
unionist and fomcntor of discord ? What
is Iveitt—what is Orr and a hundred oth
ers who could be readily named ? Besides,
W right calls God to Witness thct nothing
but disunion was talked of in the conven
tion that nominated BrcckinrHl,re—Doug
las charges him with being their candidate,
and Breckinridge does not deny that th- /
support him. The Lewistown Democrat
adds ius mite, and two weeks ago alleged
toat the South would secede if Lincoln is
eiected. Now as the Douglas men south
are not disuuionists, nor the Bell men, will
F. toll whom the disuuionists do support?
A man is judged by the company lie is in,
and we repeat there is not a disunionist
south who is not a Breckinringe man.
The communication ofF. proves one thing,
it nothing else, and that is, " uneasy is the
man who holds an office under Buchanan."
What the People Want.
No great public want can long remain un
answere 1. \\ bun a condition of things has
become developed so that a great public want
is realized, either in theology, civil govern
ment, < r phy.-ies, that u: v want or demand
is sure to create a supply. The hour will cre
ate the man, ami the need the thing. Wit
n< ss the sewing machine, the reap; r, the tel
egraph. There may be several abortions.
Many may run before they are sent, but ul
timately humanity will triumph, and the
want be supplied.
It cannot be that Medicine will long remain
what it has been—a ma-.- of intricacies, of
whi di they WHO know uio.-t know iiitle, while
the confident pretender is sure to tie a knave.
-• XVl 'l it be always a >ysom so intricate
and obscure that only the j siesta of the tem
ple can speak its language nr interpret its
symbols; or an oracle so equivocal that be
who consults the priest fans as ill or worse
'bin he who abjures the temple altogether.
I'here must ere 1 >ng be a system that comes
down t" tiie wants ot humanity in everv day
if'—that meets the wants of the mother at
tier era : the nurse at the bedside, the lath ;r
o iiiis j urney, or the sailor ( n the sea. Some
tiling or sumo system that i vervbody can
have, and c-veybody cau use, to arrest the first
invasion <d disease, and restore the ruddy cur
rent ot lilo ere its fountains are vitiated and
its forces undermined.
Old school medi fine, with its crude drugs
and poisons, can never meet this want. That
is a goon ! ng sno-i- played ■ ut, a thing well
understood. Equally futile tee vaunted pan
areas and elixirs which ignorance lias begot
oii and folly sustained. The water-cure can
n* ver be in ore than a d uhiful expedient or
useful palliative in the minds of the people.
Nor can the useful form of Homeopathy, how
e er large its if mesne manual, or complete
its asHoitamnt ol tinctures and pellets, be ev
er anything m re tlian an amusing pastime
in the hate Is of the people. The system was
never designed fi.r such use and can never fill
such a place.
But it is contend d that Humphrey's sys
tem of Specific 11 >mec pathy di es meet this
want. I:t a small neat case are m mprised
s me twenty Specinc Kmedics for all the
more common complaints to which a family
arc subject, and the v.lode are so arranged
and simplified that any person of ordinary in
telligence can successfully apply them. They
are lie ■ from d tnger or intricacy, and. accor
ding to the testimony of thousands of the must
r. potable persons who use them, entirely sue
ces.-fu!. Whv, then, m y this great problem
be considered as solved, and that here is a
systi in that does m -et the wants of ur com
mon humanity in everyday life—the great
p pillar system of medication for the relief of
' 11>' people and adapted to their wants. Sure
y nothing can be noire harmless than these
Sugar IMis, nothing more convenient or sue
cessful than these SPECIFICS.

should tin shin unite, it boggy diseased enuditton re
mains underneath to break „ht with tenfold fury in h
lew.!. \ -. The only rational and sncceaaftd treatment,
as indicated I v nature, is to redtlee the iilflaniina'iotl in
and about the wound and to soothe the neighboring
pan- bv rubbing in plenty of the Ointment as salt la
tor -ad .uto meat.
Diplberia, I iterated Sore Throat, and
Scarlet and other Fevers.
Anv of the above diseases may be . tired t y well rub
biitg the i liniment three tune.- a day into the chest,
throat and neck of the patient; it will soon penetrati.
and give immediate relief. Medicine l-itrn by ti..i
month must operate upon the whole sy stem ere its iy
fiuenet . an I "felt in any local part, whereas the Oini
metit will do its work at once. Whoever tries the un
guent in the above manner for the diseases named, or
anv - Hi.':,, disorders nth- ting the chest and throat
will find themselves reltet ed as by a charm.
Piles, Fistulas, Strictures*
The above class of complaints will be removed by
nightly fomenting the parts with warm water, and then
by most effectually rowing in the Ointment. Persia,a
I suffering from these dirt f;il eomplaints should lose
| not a mom nt in arresting tin ir progress. It should

I tin* ointment on the idfeeted parts, but it most be well
I rubbed in for some considerable time two or three
times day. that it may be taken into the system,
whence it will remove any hidden sore or wound as
efft 11 wily as though palpaWo to the eye. There again
oread and water poultices. after the rubbing in of the
ointment, will do great service. This I- the only sure
| treatment for female,-, eases of cancer in the stomach,
I or w here there may be a general bearing down.
Indiscretions of Youth ; Sores and ( leers.
Blotches. as also swellings, enn. with certainty, bo
i radically cured if the ointment in used freely, and the
pills I e"taken night and morning as mended in
the [ yin.te.i insuit lions. When treated in any other
way they only dry r.t in oa- pie . to break out in an
other : whereas this unit'.int will remove the timwir
from the system, and leave the patient a vtgorou- and
In- lithy be'ing. It will reqire time with the use of the
■ pibs to insure a lusting cure.
Dropsical Swellings, Paralyis and St Iff
Joints.
Although the above siom J>lriiut.*s differ widely in their
; origin and nature, vet they all reouire loeal treattnent.
Many . lie- worst • -uses'of run li diseases, will yield
; in a eoinparativeiy short -pace of time when tbisoint*
