VINAIGRE AROMATIQUE, COSMETIQUE, ET

111 E highly sanitory, balsamic, and tonic proper
'ties of this Vinegar render it far superior to
Cologne Water for the ordinary purposes of'-t4e
toilet and the bath, surpassing the latter in its per
fume and cheapness, arid in its greater efficacy for
the promotion of cleanliness and health.
- This article has been kriown and extensively used
in Europe for very many years, where it has, to a
considerable extent, suptrseded the use of Cologne
Water. The subscriber feels assured that it needs
only to be made known in this country to ensure
its equally general adoption. It has obtained the
approval of several eminent physicians of this city,
to whose notice it has been submitted.
It prevents and reruoves pimples, letter, and
asperity, of the skin ; it refreshes and whitens the
skin, rendering it soft and smooth. It corrects the
clammy and bitter taste of themiouth, imparting a
fresh and pleasant breath. It cleanses and whitens
the teeth, and hardens the gums. Friction with
this Vinegar promotes perspiration and assuage
rheumatic pains. ' It allays headache by application
to the temples. It is effectual in removing inflam
mation of the eyelids, and in strengthening the
eyes. Applied to a bunt it prevents soreness. It
possesses many other vali3able qualities, which are
detailed at large in the printed wrappers accom
panying each bottle.
The subscriber having, during a recent visit to
Paris, obtained the original recipe for this invalua
ble preparation, now oilers it to the American
public, with a pertbct confidenoe that it will be
found in every respect equal to the article prepared
by the original inventor.

Remember, it matters not as to the color of the
dress or drapery, or whether the day be clear or

be proof against water, air or dampness of any

TO TH FARMERS OF PENNSYLVANI.d.
HE Subscribers have made E
an arrangement with Mr. Wheeler,to manufacture for the ensuing season,
T
a large number of "PALMER'S WHEAT DRILL." They have already received several orders
for them, and relying upon heavy sales, have determined to sell at small profits, so . as to put them
within the reach of every farmer.
They believe this to be vastly superior to every other Drill in use, and intend to sell them much less
than any other capable of doing as much.
Now is the time to purchase! Every Drill is warranted. We challenge the world to produce a
Drill equal in operation, durability, workmanship and price to this. This is the third Drill invented by
Mr. Palmer, and he has now brought it to that state of perfection, beyond which it cannot be carried.
IT IS THE " NE PLUS ULTRAGRAIN DRILLS,
and of course combines all the excellencies of every other, while it is fiee from all their imperfections.
All orders should be sent in or delivered to our agents as early as July, to secure a Drill this year.

Seitz's Safety Bridle Bit
A 11i;: ::•'smiaMMIlirr_nagiNgi . 7 6 ",--,,S
•
rr HIS 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 bits now in use, which
from their painful 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 fbund 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 puinmel, 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 I
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 Bits are manufactured only by HALDEMAN
Si. 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 uridersigned is the Agent for Lancaster
county, of the above Bit, and feels warranted in
recommending it as 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.

urance on Lives at their Office, in Philadelphs,

their lives, and do so without delay, whilst they
are healthy and fit subjects to be insured.
In this Office there- arc advantages greater than
have ever yet been derived from the system of Life
Assurance; which reason and experience convince
the Trustees may with safety be offed to the
public. It will be found, on inquiry that most
officer have in the outset professed to act on some
new principle; or to offer to assurers some one
Wlrticular benefit, nut to be obtained, from other
societies . But policies are erected under various
eircumst antes, and with widely different objects,
and what may facilitate the views of one man, af
fords no accommodation to another. It appears,
therefore, to the Trustees of the Equitable, that
the greatest good will be ef f ected by that office,
which allows such reasonable advantages to every
assurer, as at the time of completing his Policy, he
considers to he suitable to his particular case. On
this principle they act, and a few instances will
suffice to show the benefits derivable from its
adoption—the greatest good of the greatest number.
-No policy will be disputed, unless under an act
of fraud by the assured, and after the same shall
have been declared by referees of undoubted char
acter. In ease of error, either as to age, or in the
form of policy, or the answers of referees, such
errors, unless wilful and fraudulent, will 'not be
deemed to vitiate the policy.
The travelling leave is extensive and liberal.
Persons insured tbr life have liberty to pass to and
from the States of Virginia and Kentucky, and west
of the river Mississippi, between the first day of
November, and the first day of July following. And
to pass tinm any place or port within the British
North American Colonies, or United States north
of. thirty-four degrees north latitude, without pay
ing an extra premium. They are allowed to cross
the Atlantic in first class steamers during May, -
June, July, August and September, free of charge;
(hiring remaining months of the year, 25 cents on
each SlOO insured.
;The age of the assured will be admltted on the
policy. if the insured die in a duel, by his own
hands, or under sentence of the. law, such death
will not invalidate the policy, except so far as it
was the property of the deceased.
',Thirty days allowed after each annual payment
becomes due, and filteen days atter each quarterly
and half yearly premium becomes due, without for
feiture of policy. Premiums or lapsed- policies
niay be renewed at any time within six months on
the production of satistac,tory evidence , as to the
health of the
When a pare effects. a policy upon the life of
hnother, the Company. will be satisfied if the party
and, at the time, a I.dna fide interest in the life of
the assured. The policy niay be assigned to Whom
soever the assured pleases, without the knowledge
or, assent of the Company (there being no clause in
the Equitable policies usual in the policies of Mu
rum. Companies, claiming a right to he notified of
an assignment and their approval obtained) so long
as the assignment or transfer of a policy in the
Equitable is a legal act, and the party who claims
can give a legal discharge, the amount is paid by
the Company.
'The extraordinary advantage afforded by means
of the Half Credit system, in not requiring, under
any circumstances, an outlay of a larger sum of.
money than is absolutely necessary to secure the
amount insured, is peculiarly applicable to the
CREDITOR desirous of possessing a policy on the life
IRS DEBTOR. If the debt is paid off during these
fide years, he can discontinue the assurance alto
giiither, having secured the amount, in the event of
the debtor's death previously, at a less expense than
would in any mutual office be charged for assuring
the life for seven years. If the debt is Nor PAID he
would be enabled to continue the assurance for the
remainder of the debtor's life, whatever might then
be his state of health. Attention is particularyre
rpliested to the

The assured has to pay the premium in all cases
in advance, and HAS NO LIABILITY of any kind,
sort or description. A deferred note is not neces
sary to perfect any operation, and none will be
taken by the Company:
Persons insuring should bear in mind that a pro
missory note given to a A.l UTUAL OFFICE at com
pound interest, soon amounts to more than the sum
assured. Thus, $lOO per annum for 20 years at 6
per cent., would cause.a DEDUCTION from the sum
assured of THREE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND
SEVENTY-EIGHT DOLLARS AND FIFTY-FIVE CENTS.
The premiums of Mutual Assurance Companies
being, as they profess, (though the Mutual. offices
"do Somehow" advertise guarantee capitals) free
from the burdens of dividends to shareholders,
should be very much lower, than those of stock
Companies; YET THE EQUITABLE IS LOWER BY SIX

The premiums charged by the MUTUAL OFFICES
are, all on the highest scale, (and by their own ad
vertisements) much beyond what is requisite for the
purpose or their business.
Their "profits" can only be realized, -if ever
realized at all, after a lapse of twenty years. - The
word Profits, therefore, is an abuse of the terna t A
WHOLLY CONTINGENT AND REMOTE PROMISE, for
it is self-evident, and cannot for a moment be ques
tioned, they must suffer loss by every insurer who
dies before the amount paid by him in premiums,
with the accumulated interest, shall be equal to
the amount of his policy—nevertheless, in the Mu-'
tual Offices the " profits" (in) are to be shared in
by the representative, should the insured die tat-
SIEDIATELY after one or two payments.
By the diminution of - the premiums in the Equi
table, THE GREATEST PRESENT BENEFIT /9 SECURED
to all persons assured by this company; whilst
those who wish to participate in the 'profits can do
so, by the purchase of the reserved shares, (first
instalment, 10 dollars) which at all times afford a
good and really profitable investment for capital,
beside a vote for each share. This action the
Trustees conceive must commend itself to the judg
ment of every unbiassed inquirer, being based on the
broad principle of equity; and securing to all the
members, the advantages to which they are justly
entitled by their actual payments; without opera
ting to the peculiar benefit of old standing members,
or placing recent entrants at a disadvantage—a
combination presented by no other office than the
Equitable Life Insurance Company.
THE ACTUAL MONEY BONUS given by the Equi
table saved, is upwards of 15 per cent., at the time
of effecting the insurance; OR IN ACCORDANCE with
the SCRIP BONUS OF A MUTUAL OFFICE; THE SAVING
IS EQUAL TO TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY PER CENT.
