Stud Colt .
• COBHAM,
a .
.of the heavy Dray breed, imported_. 7 ---„.
from England, in March, 1848. - Cobham is rising
4 years old; color, jet black, stands 17 hands 1
inch, with short .legs, well proportioned, and of
great muscular power. He is perfectly sound, firm
temper and free from all vice, weighs over 1 ton—
he is allowed' by the most competent judges to be
the belt horse of his age in Pennsylvania, and can
not be' beat in the United States.
- -
Cobham is own brother to that splendid young
horse Farmers' Glory, the property of W m. Vevers,
Esq., sr Dormington Ct., Herefordshire, England,
that has taken the Prizes at all the leading Agricul
tural Societies, and is now open to be shown against
any horse in England of the same breed for the
num of 1"600 or $25,000.
Cobham has proved himself sure, as there are a
great many mares in foal to him in the neighbor
hood of Lancaster. The reason why this valuable
horse is to be sold is because the owner purposes
returning to England. A credit of sa months will
be given for the purchase money, on approved se
curity.
He may be seen at Dillerville any day prior to
the day of sale, and full particulars will be given

T"prese:it mode of doing business (we mean
—the CREDIT SYSTEM) is now carried to such an
extent, that it is not only attended with .lisaster and
vexatiou to the cash and prompt solvent buyer, bd
increasing the number of his competitors, but, un
less every precaution and the utmost prudence . iv
observed, the wholesale dealer is involved in diffi
culty, and two-thirds, at least, who embark in the
credit business, are reducad by bad debts to abso
lute bankruptcy. -
With this truth before us, we have determined to
change our system of business, by selling only for
cash, or on very short time for prompt payment; and
beg leave to call the attention of purchasers to the
advantages we can offer as inducements to ex :mine
our stock.
Possessing every facility for purchasiAg at the
lowest cash prices, and at all times ready to avail
ourselves of a fall in the market; watching every
Auction Sale in this, and not unfrequently in neigh
boring cities ; we feel confident of our ability to
sell, at least, a portion of our stock lower than the
same articles can be bought elsewhere, and the
whole at the smallest possible advance.
Our stock will embrace every article usually Mond
in a Wholesale Dry Goods estahlishinent, and we.
respectfulty invite your attention, when in our city,
knoWing that, with the many inducements we can
offer, we cannot fail to convince the doubting and
incredulous, that the small advance charged upon
the cost will not include losses by bad debts and
lawyer's fees, or the expenses of a travelling col,.
lector; and, to every cash buyer, who will spare
the time to give our stock a careful examination,
we pledge ourselves to 'sell him a satisfactory hill,
or compel other houses to sell him cheaper than they
hare ever done before. To conclude, we promise
it shall be our constant aim, in our intercourse
with the retail dealer, not only to snake it his inter
estio purchase of us, but, by pursuing a course of
strict integrity, to merit Isis confidence, custom and
influence.

instrument 'called GOLDOMETER, or GOLD
SEEKERS GUIDE!
Signor D'Alvear has just arrived at New York
from the Gold regions of California, by way of
Panama, Chagres, and New Orleans, bringing
with him a very large quantity of Gold ore, val
ued at nearly one million of Dollars, which he
collected there, long before the existence of the
Gold mines became know to the residents of
California generally.
HISTORY OF THE DISCOVERY.
Signor D'Alvear went out to California nearly
two years ago, in consequence of certain inform
ation which he had received of the geological
character of that country, with the firm belief
that vast mines of precious matats would be re
vealed there, upon careful investigation. He
was encouraged to this enterprise, also, by his
confidence in the powers of a certain Magnetic
instrument which he had invented, called the
'• Goldometer," by whose aid he expected to be
directed at once to the " Gold Placers," if any
such existed. Nor were his expectation disap
pointed. His scientific calculations proved to be
founded in truth and profound wisdom, and his
new instrument; the " Goldometer," fulfilled
his highest hopes. In Tess than two months after
reaching California, he struck upon one of the
richest gold mines in that country, upon an ob
scure branch of the Sacramento river, in a gorge
of hills extremely rocky and difficult of access,
and seldom visited by the native Californians.
Disguising his object under the pretence of pure
ly scientific research, he obtained the aid of some
fifteen or twenty simple and faithful Indians, and
steadily pursued his task, collecting often more
than $3,000 worth of gold in a single day, which
he concealed in a deep ravine, without exciting
any suspicion whatever, until after the discovery
of gold at Capt. Sutter's Mill, when the moun
tains were ransacked by gold seekers, and Sig
nor D'Alvear's " gold placer," the richest, in all
California, was beset with greedy adventurers.
It is now found that the real mines or sources of
the gold lie in the gorges of the mountains, and
not in the beds or sands of the rivers. Previous
to leaving California, Signor D'Alvear sold his
instrument, the Goldometer,,a very imperfect
one, for $3,000. The person who purchased it
confidently expected to make a handsome fortune
by simply finding " gold placers" and selling
out the right of digging to the gold workers.
MANUFACTURE OF THE GOLDOME-
TER AND PUB. OF THE GUIDE
Signer D'Alvear, in compliance with the re
quest of numerous scientific gentlemen, has com
menced the manufacture of his new Magnetic
Instrument, the Goldometer, which he now
offers for sale, in the United States, at the re
markable low price of three dollars each, accom
panied by full instructions for use, and a variety
of Philosophical hints drawn from the ancients
and modern sciences, or the
ART OF FINDING MINES OF GOLD,
Silver, Platinum, Quicksilver, Coal, Iron, Cop
per, Lead and other Mineral Riches, the whole
being given in a publication called the
This new work, and the Goldometer, are both
now ready for sale.
The Goldometer, is so simple an instrument,
that a child may learn to operate with it in five
minutes. It is not affected by climate, moisture,
or any other known cause, (except the natuaral
magnet,) and will retain its power of pointing
out mineral riches in the earth for any number
of years. By the aid of the Guide any person
may use the instrument with perfect success.
FARMERS AND LAND OWNERS
Farmers and Land owners throughout the
United States, who have reason to suspect the
existence of any kind of mineral riches upon their..
lands should avail themselves of this opportunity
to test that fact, by the surest of all known tests
before the abundance of discoveries in 'all parts
of the country shall have lessened this source of
wealth in their; estates.
ADVENTURERS TO CALIFORNIA:
Persons going to Californiacannot make a bet
ter investment than by purchasing one of these
instruments, which will not only be worth fifty
times its value there, to sell again, but will be of
inestimable worth to those who go in search of
Gold, which has been proved by the most abun
dant experiments both in California and the
United States.
TESTIMONIALS.
Signor D'Alvear does not deem it necessary
to encumber this notice with a long list of testi
monials in proof of tho value of his Goldometer,
and Gold Seeker's Guide. The brilliant results
of his labors in California, and the discovery, this
very week, of fresh veins of Gold in Virginia, and
beds of coal in Rhode Island, by its use, are alone
sufficient to stamp it as the greatest discovery of
the age. Nothing but the extreme cheapness of
the instrument, and his desire to see it used for
the benefit of mankind induces him to di pose of
it at the low price for which he offers it. Besides
this, his own desire for wealth is nearly satisfied.
The following testimonials, in proof of the
value of the Goldometer, selected front a great
number equally satisfactory, must suffice for the
present : _ _
Ledgers, &c.,
The undersigned having this day witnessed the
practical operation of Signor Jose D'Alvear's
newly invented magnetic instrument, the Goldo•
meter, feel entirely satisfied that it possesses the
extraordinary power of detecting mineral ores
beneath the surface of the earth, and have no
doubt that it will prove an invaluable aid in the
discovery of the mineral resources of the United
States and the world.
J. R. DRAPER, Jr., Chemist,
L. S,.TIERMAN, Mag. Ins. Maker,
G. S. DANA, Geologist. •
Los Angelos, Cal., Aug., 1818.
This may certify that the undersigned is fully
convinced that Signor Jose D'Alvear, was the
first discoverer of the gold deposites of California,
and that this discovery was made by the aid of a
magnetic instrument called the Goldometer,
which I have seen applied to the discovery o
veins of gold ore, in places where no indicationf
of that substance appeared on the suface of the
earth. . T. W. SHERMAN,
In consequence of the difficulty of finding faith
ful agents, and of preventing frauds, where arti
cles of this nature are sent out for general sale,
Signor D'Alvear has determined to sell none of
his.works or instruments unless ordered by letters
sent directly to him, when the desired publica
tion, or instrument, will be forwarded under his
signature and seal, so that all as to its genuine
ness may be removed.
tr=r Beware of all imitations of this Instrument
which may hereafter appear, as the secret of
imparting the gold detecting power is known to
no person whatever except the original proprie
tor.
Kr The Goldometer, and Gold Seeker's
Guide, will both be sent by mail, closely envel
oped and sealed, and therefore not subject to
inspection of Postmasters, for the sum of THREE
DOLLARS, sent post-paid to Signor Jose de
Alvear, box 2713, New York city. The Instru
ment is very light, and the Guide is printed on
thin paper—so that the the charge by mail or
express to any part of the United States. The
price of the Gold Seeker's Guide alone, is ONE
DOLLAR, sent as above.

To Horse Owners.
THE GREAT ENGLISH REMEDY.
'(SHE only original and genuine article for the
-L cure of Heaves, other complaints of the respi
ratory apparatus and derangement of the digestive
functions in the horse is
KIRKBRIDE'S TATTERSALL'S HEAVE
POWDERS.
It is warranted to be perfectly safe in all cases,
will not inconvenience the animal or injure him
even if he has no disease; it is from four to eight
times cheaper than most of the imitations which
are being circulated throughout the country, being
put' up in larger packages, sufficient to cute any
ordinary' case of Heaves, and to administer in a
dozen cases of cold, catarrh,
At this season, while the horse is shedding his
coat his vital energy is much reduced, and he is
extremely liable to colds, &c., many cases of incip
ient Heaves are contracted now, but are suppressed
by pasture or warm weather, till they break out
in full force in the fall. Thousands of horses can
be sated from future unsoundness, if when the
first svmptons of cold or wheezing is observed, a
few doles of the 7'attersall's Heave Poladers should
be administered. They are warranted to v. holly
eradicate recent heaves at this season.
Great Spring Purifier.—The Heave Powders
given in small doses, will be found most useful at
this season. They stimulate the skin to cast off
the superfluous hair and produce new; they loosen
the hide, give a glossy appearance to the coat, pro
tect against disease; they also form their fine
alterative and restorative powers, purify the blood
and renovate the whole system, which horses re
quire at this season as much as any of the human
race, who find a preparation of Sarsaparilla useful
to correct a vitiated state of the fluids, incident to
the change of weather, which in the spring affect
all animal as well as vegetable life.
INCREASING EVIIIENCE.—ScarceIy a day
passes but we receive marks of . approbation from
our agents, and others who have used or sold the
remedy.
The following from our agent at Burlington, Vt.,
was received this morning:
" Mr. Flannagan of Middlebury, says he pur
chased a package of you last tan, and gave to a
valuable young horse that had the heaves, and it
cured him entirely ; he is now perfectly sound. He
hes just bought a few more packages for other
horses." A. C. SPEAR, Burlington, Vi.
This was received yesterday morning:
"Messrs. A. H. Gough 4- Co.—l have by chance
procured one package of your Tattersall's Heave
Powders, and have tried them on a horse of my
own. I think it has entirely cured my horse to all
appearances. Almost every man here thinks heaves
cannot be cured, and to satisfy the people that they
can, I will purchase six packages for $5, which is
enclosed. Please send, &c., to
EDWARD JONES,
Clyde Glass Works, Clyde, N. V.
In addition to the above and twenty other certifi
cates which we have published, more than a hun
dred smilar ones can be adduced, but is impossible
to publish them all. The successful and immense
use of this popular Horse Remedy has rendered
advertising unnecessary to establish it as the most
useful and saleable horse medicine extant.
CAUTION.—As is to be expected of every valua
ble and popular remedy, numerous parasitical imi
tations have sprung up, all of which expect to find
support and sale from the popularity of this medi
cine. This has been the case more particularly in
the middle and western parts of this State, but per
sons are cautioned against all "HEAVE CURES,"
"HEAVE. COMPOUNDS," &c., and to purchase no
remedy but
Kirkbrides Tattersall's Heave Powders,
which is the article that is performing these won
derful cures, and each package is signed
