„ Then it is that we succumb! By our beloved
country, by our past annuls, by the glorious future
which stretches forth its arms to us. such must not
be the result.
I come in the name of the Democracy to invite
you to a last ministry. To the task, gentlemen, to
the task, until evangelized nations, better under- ,
standing their rights and their common destiny,
shall constitute a holy unity this republic of friends j
and brothers which is one day to form the govern- |
ment of the human race. i
Would that by us its regenerating word could
touch* alt hearts, penetrate all'consciences. Let us
inculcate it with fervor, if we would inculcate it
with sucqees.
And, when inspired by it,' we proclaim the sacri
fice of our private interests to the interests of the
mass—the immolation of individual preferences to
the sincerity of our profession, nor search in vain
among us for examples to follow and models to
imitate.

A CHEAP PAPER FOR THE CAMPAIGN!
Ifhe Proprietor of the Lancaster Intelligencer is
deeply grateful to his numerous Democratic friends,
here and elsewhere, for the interest they have taken
in extending the circulation and increasing the gen
eral patronage of this journal. During the past
fortnight: a.number of new names have been added
toour list, and prorriinent'Democrats have exhibited
a degree of good will towards ns, for which we
cannot be sufficiently thankful.
We fear, howe\er, that there are-.still' v ery many
Democrats in the city and county of Lancaster,
who do not take the local paper devoted to the
principles which they protess to cherish. On the
'eve of an important Presidential contest, this should
not be the case. The Whigs are sparing no effort
to flood the country with pamphlets, speeches, and
newspapers, by which to influence the public mind
in their favor. They should hr met, by a correspond
din g effort on our part. When they mine, we must
counter-mine. When they send forth the bane, we
must let the antidote follow.
In order, therefore, to place the with
in the reach of every reading man. during this
campaign, we propose to furnish it, from the \sf-of
July next, until after the Presidential Election, on the
following terms:
Single •Copy
Five Copies
Eight '•

On account of the extreme cheapness of the
paper, we shall be obliged to adopt the cash system.
rigidly.' Therefore, no attention will be paid to any
order, unless accompanied by the cash.
Democrats! -now is the time to : lend us your aid
in disseminating the sacred truths ol the great ie
publican party. Send iii your names. We hope
that every Democrat will bestir himself in this
noble cause.

The Blole. —We have been favored \yith a copy
pf the 40th Annual report of the-Pennsylvania Bi
ble Society, one of the best of the tnauy Institutions
with which our State is brightened and adorned.
Nearly forty-live years have gone by since this
Association commenced its laudable labors Of
the original founders only four remain,-viz: Rev.
Drs, Meyer, Alexander. Janeway and Helfenstein.
During the first five years of its existence, there
were circulated 7245 copies of the Scriptures. Since
then, there has beep a gradual increase, till the
annual circulation exceeds sixty thousand copies.
]t has ljfeen estimated, by those presuming to be
familiar with the statistics in relation to the early
.circulation of the Sacred Scriptures, that during a
period, of abont three hundred years preceding the
era of Bible Societies, there were prir ted only about
three millions of Bibles.
Since that time, however, during a space of only
forty-four years, there have been sent forth to the
world'more than thirty millions of Bibles and Tes
taments. These have been published in almost
every language, and sent to nearly every part of
the world, so that we hope, ere long, the Scriptures
may be sq diffused, that every man may read "in
his own tongue wherein he was born, the wonderful
works of God.’’ These facts furnish powerful evi
dence of the efficacy and value of such institutions.
During the last year the work has been vigorously
prosecuted in Eastern Pennsylvania, and in Western
Pennsylvania there were circulated nine thousand
one hundred and thirty-sev.eu copies of. the Bible,
and twenty-one thousand four hundred and liftv
(fight copies of the Testament. Various new aux
iliary Societies were formed, and the prospect for
the future is lull of encouragement. —Philadelphia

/TURDERERS ABROA D.—Those ignorant pre-
IT I tenders who quit the anvil £r the lap-stone,
and go to curing all the diseases flesh is heir to, are
murderers of the first degree. They get into notice
by puffing, and gain a notoriety for curing diseases
which they are ignorant of, and never in reality
effected. How strange that an intelligent people
will be humbugged out of their own lives, when
there are experienced physicians and really valua
ble medicines to be had }‘or less than is paid for
empvrical prescriptions. Dr. Sherman, one of our
best educated and most experienced physicians, has
prepared in a remarkable pleasant form, various
medicines for the common diseases of the country.
They can all be relied on as safe and effectual,and
you are not required to purchase several dollars
worth to try their virtues. No truly valuable med
icine should, or can be eaten ail libitum. A few
shillings worth at most is all you need of Dr. Sher
man’s Lozenges, and with it you can get his advice
and the proper means of relief. Many go on, week
after week, trying the multitude of advertised med
icines, and get no relief. They spend dollars and
ten dollars, and grow worse, till at last they go to
106 Nasau street, and for a trifle get what cures
them in a short time. We know Dr. Sherman, and
have tried many of his Lozenges, and speak advi

Truth and Common Sense
Is mighty and will prevail,
Over all the Humbuggery in the World, however bom
bastic and noisy'it'may appear.
MT. FORD, being desirous of returning his
# sincere and hearty thanks to the citizens of
Lancaster city and county, for the kind. manner in
which they have come forward and welcomed liim
—being an entire stranger among them—-and for
the unprecedented patronage lie has received at
their hands, adopts this medium of expressing his
gratitude for their favors. He wishes it distinctly
understood that he does not attempt to thrust it
down the necks of tlie public, that his is the only
Clothing Store in the world, nor has’ he gotquito as
magnificent a front to his establishment as some
persons pretend to have; but one thing is certain,
and it has been unanimously decided by the entire
population o l Lancaster, that he has just received
the most magnificent and extensive
Assortment of Goods,
suitable for the present and coming season, ever be
fore exhibited in this county, to describe which is
almost an impassibility. The only way to form an
accurate idea of the extent, variety and splendor,
will be to cull and examine them. And rest assured,
gentlemen, of receiving the most polite attention,
whether you intend purchasing at the time or not.
;M . T. FORD offers $lOOO reward* to any merson
in Lancaster city or county, who can produce as
large a variety, and as cheap a Stock of well made
Clothing, and piece goods as lie has now ready Tor

Or. Franklin’s Opinion of Luck,
THE astonishing success of JOS. GORMELY,
in the CLOTHING BUSINESS, excites the'
surprise of some and the envy and jealousy of
others Hi.v unparalleled success some attribute
to one cause, and some to another,. And some,
more envious than the rest, attribute it to any cause
that best suits their purposes, no matter how unjust,
or how foul the misrepresentations. Again, there
is another class more easily satisfied, and content
themselves by saving—Well, it is all luck—better
to be born lucky than rich. Born under a lucky,
planet,” &e, “ Pshaw says Dr. Franklin, of luck,
all the luck I know of is in proper management.”
Precisely so, Dr., and just the operating cause in
the extensive business done at the great LANCAS
TER HALL OF FASHIONS. The only secret in
this large business, and the only reason that it of
large, is because he is careful in the selection is
good materials, and has all his goods well made —
and then the tit ot his garments cannot be surpassed}
and are sold at prices that defy competition. This
is the cause of his astonishing success at the great
LANCASTER HALL OF FASHIONS, N. Queen
St . Lancaster; next to J. Gish & Co.’s Book Store
and the National House. [May 9, ’48.-t£-15.

Reinhardt's Patent glass Pad Dou
ble and Single Lever Truss,
For the support 'and. cure of Rupture, or Hernia. >
THIS TRUSS has the superiority of any hereto
fore in use, Ist, on account of its durability
and cleanliness, the rupture pad being of glass, (in
any shape or form,) the adjustments of'the springs
to suit the action of the body, and calculated to be
.fitted to either side. The rupture pad has a double
motion; Ist, by revolving on its own axis; 2d, by
the lever to which it is attached, and where said
lever is connected to the main spring. The supe-t
riority which this Truss has over others, is obvious
in this, that it is most effectual in retaining the
parts in their proper place, and making due pres
sure ; it is always clean ; its shape or form is du
rable, which in stuffed pads is not the case, as they
become saturated with the* fluids from the body.
The Umbilical Truss is uiisarpassed, being so
adapted as to remain perfectly secure where apj
plied.
Physicians and others are invited to call and ex
amine this- instrument. Numerous certificates
can be shown, from some of the most eminent of
the medical profession, recommending the instru
ment. For sale at JOHN F. LONG’S
