January 16, >49 To Horse Owners. THE GREAT ENGLISH REMEDY. THE only original and genuine article for the 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 _ - I 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 cure any ordinary case of Heaves, and to administer in a dozen cases of cold, catarrh, &c. 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 contractd now, but are suppressed by pasture or warm weather, till they break out in full force in the fall. Thousands of horses can be saved from future unsoundness, if when the first symptons of cold or wheezin is observed, a few doses of the Tattersall's Heave Powders should be administered. They are warranted to wholly 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 EVIDENCE.—Scarcely a day passes but we receive marks of approbation from our agents, and others who have used or sold the emedy. The following from our agent at Builington, ,, Vt., was received this morning: " Mr. Flannagan of Middlebury, says he pur chased a package of you last tall, and gave to a valuable young horse that had the heaves, and it cured him entirely; he is now perfectly sound. He has just bought a few more packages for other horses." A. C. ,Sti.EAR, Burlington, Vt. This was received yesterday morning: "Messrs. A. H. Gough 4. Co.—l have by chance procured one package of your TattersalPs Heave Powders, and have tried them on a horse of my own. I think it has entirely cured my horse to all appearances. Almost everyman 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. Y. In additionito 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 front 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 ComrouNns," &c., and to purchase no remedy but TattersaWs Heave Powders, which is the article that is performing these won derful cures, and each package is signed A.

WILEY. tf-13 Seitz's Safety Bridle Bit. THIS is a safety Bridle Bit invented and secured by Mr. Henry Seitz, of Marietta, Pa. This Bit is expected 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' hi ow in use, which from their painful action often m s 'irked horse rear, kick and try fo run away. This is in its action_on the mouth, causing no pal whatever, and has the requisite power when wanted —no horse having been lbund 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 pass back to the driver. 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 horn or 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 O 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 beyond Management as harness horses with ordinary severe bits, from the habit or invariable practice of running away in spite of the utmost endeavors of 'their driver—now they are good and serviceable horses. _ - The flits are manufactured only by HALDEMAN SEITZ, of Marietta, Pa., who will attend to all orders concerning the sale of the same. The patent right of this invention has been secured, and it is coming fast into use. The undersigned is the Agent for Lancaster county, of the above Bit, and feels warranted in recommending it as e a valuable invention. He would refer to the following persons, who have it in use: John Forry, Manor; Henry Spiehlman, Jr., Stras burg; Jacob Stahl, Dr. J. Cushman, Marietta. There is no necessity to multiply references, as the Bit recommends itself, upon inspection. For sale, wholesale and retail, at manufacturers' prices. GEO. M. STEINMAN, Lancaster.

Breathless the course of the Pale White Horse Bearing the ghastly form— Rapid and dark as the spectre bark When it sweeps before the storm! Balefully bright through the torrid night Ensanguined meteors glare— Fiercely the spires of volcanic fires Stream on the sulphurous air! Shades of the slain through the murderer's brain Flit terrible and drear— Shadowy and swift the black storm-drift Doth trample the atmosphere ! But swifter than all, with a darker pall Of terror around my path, I have arisen from my lampless prison—: Slave of the high God's wrath ! Cft deep Voice went from the Firmament, ' , And it pierced the caves of Earth— Therefore I came on my wings of flame From the dark place of my birth ! And it is said : "Go from the South to the Nor Over yon wandering ball— Sin is the King of the doomed Thing, And the sin beguiled must fall !7 , • Forth from the Gate of the Uncreate, • From the portals of the Abyss-- From the caverns dim where vague forms swim And•shapeless chaos is! From Haides , womb—from the joyless tomb Of Erebus and Old Night-- From the unseen deep where death and sleep Brood in their mystic might— I come—l come—before me are dumb The nations aghast for dread— Lo! I have past as the desert blast And the millions of Earth lie dead. • A voice of fear from the Hemisphere Tracketh me where I fly— Earth' weeping aloud for her widowhood— A wild and desolate cry !

From Curtis's Recollections Washington's Punctuality. WASHINGTON was the most punctual of men. To this admirable quality, and the one equally ad mirable of rising at four o'clock and retiring to rest at nine at all seasons, this great man owed his being able to accomplish such mighty labors during a long and illustrious life. He was punctual in everything, and made every one punctual about him. During his memorable journey through the Union, he had, before setting off, arranged all the stages for the whole route; the ferries, the inns, •the hour of arriving at and departing from each, were all duly calculated, and punctually did the white chariot arrive at all its appointments, ex cept when prevented by high waters or excessively bad roads. His punctuality on that long journey astonished every one. The trumpet call of the cavalry had scarcely ceased its echoes when a vidette would be seen coming in -at full speed, and the cry resound far and wide, "He's coming!" Scarcely would the artillerymen unlimber the cannon, when the order would be given, "Light your matches, the white chariot is in full view!" Revolutionary veterans hurried from all directions once more to greet their beloved chief. They called it marching to head-quarters, and as the dear glorious old fellows would overtake their heighbors and friends, they would say, "Push on my boys, if you wish to see him; for we who ought to know can assure you that he is never behind time, bid always punctual to the moment." It was thus that Washington performed his memorable tour of the United States—every where received with the heartfelt homage' that the love, veneration, and gratitude of a whole people could bestow; and there is no doubt yet living a grey head who can tell of the time when he gallantly rode -to some village or inn on the long remem bered route to bail the arrival of the white chariot, and join in the joyous welcome to the Father of his Country. And equally punctual in his engagements was this remarkable man nearer home. To the review, the theatre, or the ball-room he repaired precisely at the appointed time. The manager of the thea tre, waiting on the President to request him to command a play, was asked, "At what time, Mr. Wignell, does your curtain rise ?" The manager replied, "seven o'clock is the hour, but of course the curtain will not rise . until your excellency's arrival." The President observed, " I will be punc tual sir, to the time; nobody waits a single moment for me." And, sure enough, precisely at seven, the noble form of Washington was seen to enter the stage-box, amid the acclamations of the audience and the music of the President's March. In the domestic arrangements of the Presidential mansion, the private dinner was served at three o'clock, the public one at four. The drawing room commenced at seven, and ended a little past ten. The Levee began at three, and ended at four. On the public occasions the company came within a very short time of each other, and departed in the same manner. The President is punctual, said everybody, and everybody became punctual: Russian Justice. The following story gives a lively idea of the Russian rule of Poland. A Jew met a Cossack in the forest; the latter robbed him of his horse: On returning to town, he lodged a complaint with the Major in command, who was (with what truth we cannot say) -reputed to be a most rigorous discipli narian. The Cossacks were paraded, the robber was pointed out, when, with the utmost effrontery, he declared he had found the horse. "How?" re plied the Jew, "I was on his back." "Yes," retor ted the Cossack, "I found you too; but having no use for a Jew, I did not keep you." The excuse was deemed sufficient, and the Jew lost his steed. HONEST. CoNFxssioN.—When Lucy Cowper was once examined in a court of justice, one of the coun sellors asked her if she came there ta the character of a modest wornan ? " No, sir," replied she, "that which has been the "ruin of me, has - been th mak ing of you—l mean impudence." BY' Power should not be employed to do wrong, but to punish the doers of wrong. Revival of our inner Life. Christ, in saying ll:fat the kingdom of God is within us, has virtually taught us where to look for the beginning of a revival. There is no harm in the application of the term revival to the raising of the dead to lite—to the conversion., of sinners, who never have• been alive to God, provided we keep well - in mind that a revival in thestricter sense, and that revivals which Christians should most immediately seek, is the raising of a higher flow of life in their own hearts. That a revival consists mainly in an increase of the spiritual affec tions of the persons who - pray for revivals, and hence that the field for them to cultivate is so near. home, should dwell in the mind as a first principle of all that is said and felt, and done respecting . revivals. This of .course will not hinder any suitable efforts . to act on other minds—whether by mutual exhor tations among Christians, or by endeavors to per suade men to be reconciled to Christ. For it is the revival of our inner life: that gives life and force.to act thus without. When our own impressiOn of eternal realities is vivid and intense, through our intimate communion. with God, our desire to move other minds becomes irrepressible, and our long ings for their salvation will have utterance in effec tual- intercessions for them. So that the most di rect and effectual way for a Church to put in mo tion the train of influences that will secure the conversion of men, is for each individual to spend his first and main care in promoting an increase of his own interior life. , The ministry are supposed to be more 'especially concerned to secure the best methods of reviving religion in the hearts of others, especially of those committed to their charge. But what can a minister do in a way of giving shape and tone to his labors, which will more surely con tribute to a general revival than to spend his main care in securing a revival of his own fervors and affections. Let hirn have the ordinary qualifications for the ministry, and jOdgment and discretion in applications of truth ; then let his mind come under an intense realising of eternity, let his heart become the seat of those fervors, and longings, and intense anxieties, and that strong faith, which attends the tresh unction from the Holy One, and he will have the most effectual impulse and direction to all the efforts appropriate to his office. He will have no reason to inquire what revival measures are most approved, and what are the best expedients to awaken the careless, and the best means to secure the co-operation of the Church, and what is the best form of revival preaching. For, when his own heart is inflamed it melts and re-casts the materials of Divine truth which it takes in, and sends "them forth glowing and burnin'g, their way into other hearts. And in a similar way fresh annointings prepare the hearts of other Christians for revival action.— There was formerly a semi-profane way of talking about "getting up revivals of religion." The term, we suppose, was intended to cover certain processes of external action, which were supposed to be in variably connected with revivals... It supposed that the thing could be studied and practised as an art; and that the labors of one expert in this art, were above all price. But there is no true way of get ting up revivals but the getting up of our own hearts, from the sloughs into which they have sunk, and getting up the tide of life in them. Let this be done—let each one build , the wall over against his own house, and secure an intense indwelling of the Spirit of life in himself, and then he cannot avoid being an instrument of reviving others. Re vived religion, if it be in a solitary heart, is as sure to spread as a flame. The sum of the matter is, that we may spare ourselves all the trouble about the best modes of action for a revival of religion. Let our own in dividual heart clear away all obstructions to its own communion with God, and enter into the glow of Divine love and the habits of Christian faithful ness, and it will be in a way to do our parttowanls the blessed result. Let each member of the Church thus clothe himself with the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, and that Church will have the best equipment for action. And in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit by this means secured, it will have the best guides in action. If it abound less in theatrical and startling expedients, it will bp more efficient in the action of heart on heart, and in those communications of Divine truth, which carry life to the soul dead in sin. True religion is an inner light. Its nature is to begin within ; and to spread itself from the inward seat over the outer man, and thence to spread itself abroad in communications to others. And to those who say—Lo here or lo there, the answer is—The kingdom of God is within you.—New England Puritan. 113 The correspondent of the London Daily News describes a visit he had paid to the many small, dark, and damp dungeons of the inquisition at Rome, which have.lately been thrown open to the public. It is out of the beaten track behind St. Peter's. The correspondent says: " The officer in charge led me down to where the men were digging in the vaults below; they had cleared a downward flight of steps, which was chocked up with old rubbish, and had come to a series of dungeons the vaults deeper still, and which immediately brought to my mind the prisons of the Dodge under the canal of the Bridge of Sighs at Venice, only that here there was.a surpassing hor ror. I saw imbedded in old mas#nry, unsymme trically arranged, five skeletons in various recesses, and' the clearance had only just begun; the period of their insertion in this spot must have been more than a Century and a half. From another vault, full of skulls and scattered human remains, there was a shaeabout four feet square ascending per pendicularly to.the first floor of the building, and ending in a passage off the hall of the chancery, where a trap dootlay between the tribunal and the way into a suite of rooms desi.ned for one of the officials. The object of this shaft could admit of but one surmise. The ground of the vault was made up of decayed animal matter, a lump of which held imbedded in it a long silken lock of hair, as I found by personal examination as it.was shovelled up from below. But that is not all; there are two large subterranean lime-kilns, if I may so call them, shaped like a bee hive in masonry, filled with layers of calcined bones, forming the substratum of two other chambers on the ground floor in the immediate vicinity of the very mysterious shaft above mentioned." Precept vs. Practice. Dr. Channing had a brottter physician, and at one time they both lived in: Boston. A country man, in search of the divine, kocked at the doctor's dour. Thefollovving dialogue ensued: "Does Dr. Channing live here?" "Yes sir." "Can I see him ?" "I am he." • "Who? you?" "Yes, sir." "You must have altered considerably since I heard you preach?" "Heard me preach?" "Certainly. You are the Dr. Channing that preaches, ain't you?" "Oh! I see you are mistaken now. It's my brother who mixers—l'm the doctor who PRAC TICES." social Kindness. How sweet is social affection! When the world is dark without, wehave light within. When cares disturb the breast when sorrow broods around the heart,—what joy gathers in the circle of love! We forget the world, with all its animosities, while blest with social kindness. That man cannot be unhappy who has a heart that vibrates in sympa thy with his own—who is cheered by the smiles of affection and the voice of tenderness. Let the world be dark and cold—let the hate and animosity of bad men gather about him in the place of busi ness—but when he enters the ark of. love--his own cherished circle—he forgets all these, and the cloud passes from his brow and the sorrow from his heart The warm sympathies of wife and children dispel every shadow, and he feels a thrill of joy in his bosom which words are inadequate to express: He who is a stranger to the joys of social kindness, has not begun to live. ll Pride is as loud a beggar:as :want, and a great deal more saucy.

From I ho Dublin Freeman's Journal Is this to he forever and forever the cry—death ! I death!! death!!! We came to our office. yesterday. I hoping that we would not have to peruse the usual amount of - awful; heart-rending death lists, but need we say that our heart sank within us, and that our blood ran cold as we read letter after. letter, and found the same burden of each to be the same ap palling cry—death, death, 'death. The humane Protestant rector of Ballinrobe addresses Lord John Russell to-day through our columns, and every line of his eloquent, expressive, and philanthropic letter is as a voice from the dead—a voice telling of over one hundred wed thirty-six registered deaths occurring in one week in the poor house of Ballinrobe!!—a voice telling of, the increase of the people's wretch edness and misery—a voice telling of the poorhouse being shunned as a pestilential snare through "the vain hope" of the victims- "that death may not all at once overtake them elsewhere"—X"voice telling of the deplorable fact that the people "have had neither food nor raiment in any way commensurate with their wants, or even the necessities of nature, and that the painful consequence is, "they are dropping into their graves in MULTITUDES." - - - Rev. Mr. Conway, the active, zealous and hu• mane Catholic curate of the same place, writes to us—and the burden of his letter also is the same fearful cry as that which gives an awful interest to . the communication a the compassionate Protes tant rector. He says: "We have dead bodies 'everywhere. I am obliged myself to handle them, coffin them, and put them in the earth. We cannot pi:agora a sufficiency of men to bury the dead, or of coffins to contain them. Every village has dead bodies lying unburied for many days; almost every hovel in the suburbs of the town has its corpse. We cannot, I iepeat„get coffins, boards or men for the necessity of the mo ment. May God foigive our rulers for their cruel conduct toward God's creatures, here!" Again and again we ask in anguish of spirit will men be apathetic while such is the fate of brother men'? Will creatures endowed with soulswith human hearts—be silent while the very stones. had they voices, would cry to Heaven against such ap palling horrors. Tuesday night we took up the evening papers, and said, here at least the cry of death, Will not meet us at everyline. We were mistaken. It was still the same. The wail of the destitute poor was taken up by the- Conservative Packet, and flung among our rulers with a vigorous and truthful elo quence which few could command. The first thing that met our eyes in that journal, ever true to the cause of suffering humanity, was this: "Doom or Toe :‘.lVliaix husu."—We feel it is not necessary to utter one syllable of comment when introducing the following letter to our readers. It has been communicated to us by a highly ititellie gent gentleman, who would be incapable of exag geration, and the fruits Of whose talent and learning have frequently delighted and instructed our.readers. "There are some facts simply stated in this letter that are terribly suggestiVe of the state to which, 'our peasantry are reduced:—our once happy, light hearted peasantry.

And what, in all the records of this unrelieved famine that is slaying our unhappy people, can be more demonstrative of the desert through which our correspondentpassed, than the driver's significant words, 'You wont't hear the cry of a child from this to Limerick ?" Not a child's cry in a district once fruitful and beautiful —once peopled with life and happiness—once filled at this season with the bustle of harvest prepara tion—once musical with the glad mirth of young voices! Good God! could volumes suggest a more appalling change than the simple words, 'You won't hear the cry of a child from this to Limerick?' " The following is the letter: "Amin 28, 184 9. "To the Editor of the Evening Packet: "Dear Sir: I have been for the last ten days through the Counties of Limerick, Galway, Clare, and across thence to the King's County. "All attempts to depict the existing state of the misery of the masses beyond the Shannon must come utterly short of the truth. All that tract of country from Kil!aloe to Portumna, on the Galway side of the Shannon, is lying waste and uncultiva ted. About three out of four of the miserable huts are unroofed. Some of the former inmates are dead, some in the union, and some few huddled to gether in one or two of the huts still existing. "The men generally have perished." The correspodent of the Packet having described scenes of human misery on which a demon could scarcely look without emotion, concludes thus : "With large tracts of land lying uncultivated, a few miserable men are employed on the roads—at what wages think you? One pound of yellow meal—i. e. less than ld per diem!!! Great God, how is this to cure famine!
