To the' Public.
THERE is a period in the life of some men, that
it becomes necessary for them to appear, in
public, in self-defence, or, to correct erroneous
representations;—for such a cause your humble
servant has come forward. There has an erroneous
opinion went forth to the public, respecting my
habit of charging . my Patients,—in order that the
public may be matte fully aware of my regular
prices, .I take this method of informing them, and
.all those who had occasion to employ a Physician,
will see, by referring to their respective bills,
whether mine is extfavagant or not, when they come
to consider, that for any acute diseases I cure them
in half the time that they have beendn the habit of
being cured,—and - after they are mired, that they
are not so reduced, by. their treatment, that they
are wholly disqualified for their business for as long
a time as they had been—and some for their whole
lifetime • such cases occur daily, and we will now
leave the public to judge. The • following is a list
Of charges: For acute cases, fifty cents, for each
visit, and twenty-five cents for medicine—at night,
one Dollar. In chronic cases I treat persons by the
month, from two to three Dollars according to the
disease. When called to the country, I charge ac
cording to the distance, from one Dollar up, if over
four miles a regular deduction is always made ; in
short I always charge according to the case, or ac
cording to the regular established prices, of all reg
ular medical men. The above terms have reference
to those persons only, who ar4able to pay a Phy
locum, the poor can get medicie at any time gratis.
I am most respectful)

Seitz 9 s Safety Bridle Bit.
THIS is a safety Bridle Bit-invented and secured
by Mr. Henry Seitz, of Marietta, Pa. This
Bit is .!spected to supersede eventually all others,
either for riding or driving, combining, as it does,
the common snaffle, so arranged with the pulley,
as to give any person perfect power over the most
vicious or frightened horse. It obviates the objec
tions made to the severe bits. now in use, which
from their pairiful action, often make a spirited
horse rear, kick and try to run away. This bit is
pleasant in its action on the mouth, causing no pain
Whatever,and'has the r quisite power when wanted
—no horse having. been found able to resist it.
The operation is as follows: The rein is hooked
firmly to the saddle at A, passing through the loop
C, into the bit over the roller at B, and securing it
fast to the ring D, which prevents it from drawing
back and forms the check rein now in use, and to
which the driving reins are buckled and piss back
to the driven For horseback, the loops and rings
are dispensed with, the rein being continuous, form
ing two reins, one of which is thrown over the
saddle hornor strapped to the pummel, and the
other to the rider's hand—both reins can pass thro'
the rings of a martingale. For ladies it is particu
larly recommended on account of its safety and
power, as a horse is by no means able to throw his
head sufficiently low to kick. For double harness
the reins should pass from the Ist horse over to the
bit of the 2nd, through the bit and back to the
the saddle piece at G, of the Ist horse—platting
the reins as they cross each other between the
horses.
Horses have been successfully driven with this
bit, that were set aside as heyond management as
harness horses with ordinary severe bits, front the
habit or in ariable practice of running away in spite
of the utmost endeavors of their driver—now they
are good and serviceable horses.

THEREFORE, the Farmers ought to look to
their interests by examining .the merits and
improvements in MONTGOMERY'S VERY JUSTLY
CELEBRATED PANNING MILLS
The undersigned continue to manufacture at their
Shop, in Chesnut Street, a few doors West of the
Museum, and near Whitehill's Foundry, in the
city of Lancaster, Fanning Mills greatly superior
to any ever before offered to the public, embracing
ail THEIR very latest improvements, among which
are the Double Screen and the better 'application
of the wind, so as to produce the most desirable
effect in cleaning grain of all kinds. Experience
of many years, great' practical knowledge, and
strict personal application, enables us to say our
Fans are superior in every particular to any here
tofore in use.
Our attention is especially turned to fitting up,
and all work undergoes our careful personal inspec
tion before leaving our shop.
In addition to our important improvements, our
fans are celebrated for their ease in working; and
the great expedition with which they clean all kinds
of grain, besides their superior finish warrant us in
saying they surpass all other mills manufactured,
and we confidently warrant them to give entire sat
isfaction upon trial.
"CORN PLOUGH."
We also call the especial attention of farmers,
to KROUSER'S Patent Pennsylvania Buggy CORN

APPEARS at first sight so insurmountable a bar
rier to the intercourse of nations as the ocean
—but Science has converted. it into the most ex
peditious means by which they may supply their
mutual wants. Nothing is so violent as steam, or
so-destructive as fire—yet art has made them sub
servient to the necessities, the comforts, and even
the elegancies of life. Whet so hard, so cold, and
so insensible as Marble yet the Sculptor can
warm it into life and bid lit express the tenderest
emotions. How variable is color? how swift is
light? and how empty-is shade I—but the pencil of
a Raphael can give these fleeting things both a body
and a soul, and can confer upon them an imperish
able vigor,—a beauty that increases with age, rind
which must continue to captivate generations.
How is it that Erben, at the Sign of the Striped
Coat can have his Clothing made and trimmed so
much better than the other Lancaster tailors and
yet sell far cheaper than the rest of the trade! His
clothing never rips, it is made of good material,
and the fit of his garments can't be excelled, and
the price this Spring is almost notirtig. How can
he afford to sell so low, how does he Jo it? These
are questions often asked, and no doubt it seems
