AYER’S Ire curing the Sick to an extent never before known of any 1 Medicine. INVALIDS, READ AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELVES JULES HAUEL, E*q.. the well known perflimen of Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, whose, choiee products are found at almost ever}’ toilet, says: “I am happy to say of your Cathabtic Pills, that 1 hare found them a better family medicine, for common use, than any other within my knowledge. Many of my friends have realized marked benefits from them, and co incide with me in believing that they possess extraordinary virtues for driving out disea>es and curing the sick. They are not only effectual, but safe and pleasant to be taken qualities which must make them valued by the public when they are known.” The venerable Chancellor WARDLAW writes from Bal timore, 15th April, 1854: “ Dn. J.C. Atcr Sir: 1 have taken vour PHla with ereni benefit, for die listlessnesa, languor, loss of appetite, and Bilious headache, which has of late years overtaken me in the spring. A few doses of your Pills cured me. I have u*ed vour Cherry Pectoral many yean in my family for rough*'and colds with unfailing success.

S. STEVENB, M. D., of Went- worth, N. 11., writes: “ flavine used your Cathartic Pills in my practice, I certify from experience that they are an invaluable purga tive. In rases of disordered functions of the liver, causing headache, indigestion, cnsiiveness, and the great variety of diseases that follow, they are a surer remedy than any other. In all rases whore a purgative remedy te required, I confidently recommend these Pills to the public, as superior to any other 1 have ever found. They are sure ir their operation, atitj perfectly safe qualities which make tli**m an invaluable article for public use. I have for many years known your Cherry Pectoral as the best Couiih Medicine in the world; and these Pills "are in no wise inferior to that admirable preparation for the treat ment of diseases ” “ Acton, Me., Nov. 25, 1853. “ Dr. J. 0. Avis- Dear Sir: l have been afflicted from my birth with >r.rofula in its worst form, and now, after twenty years’ trial, and an untold of amount of suffering, have been completely cured in a few weeks by your Pills. With what feelings of rejoicing I write can only be imagined when you realize what I have suffered, and how until now have I bken free from this loathsome dtaea«e iu some shape. At times it attacked my eyes, and made me almost blind, besides the unendurable pain ; at others it settled in the scalp of my head, and destroyed my hair, and has kept me partly bald all my days; sometimes it came out in my face, and kept it for uumtlis a raw sore “About nine weekß ago I commenced taking your Ca thartic Pillejuid now am entirely free from the complaint. My eyes are well*, my skin is fair, ami my hair has com menced a healthy growth; all of which makes me feel already a new person. “ Honing this statement may be the means of conveying information that shall do good to othere, I am, with every of snuitude, KICKER.” i have known the above named Maria Ricker from her childhood, and her statement is strictly true. ’ i ANDREW J. MESERVE, Overseer of the Portsmouth Manufacturing Co.” Cart. JOEL PRATT, of the ship Marion, writes from Boston, 20ih April, 1854: “ Your Pills have cured me from a bilious attack which arose from derangement of the which had become very serious. I bad failed of any relief by my Physician, and from every remedy I could try ; but a few doses of your Pills have completely restored me to health. I have given them to my children for worms, with the best ef fects They were promptly cured. I recommended them to a friend for costiveness, which had troubled him for months; he told tne in a few days they had cured him. You make the best medicine in the world ; and I am free to say so.” Read this from the distinguished Solicitor of the Bupreme Court, whose brilliant abilities have made him well known, not only in this but the neighboring Stales. “AVu> Onlearu, 5iA April, 1854. “Sir: I have great satisfaction lu assuring you tlhu myself and family have been very much benefited by your medicines. My wife was cured, two years since, of a se vere and dangerous cough, by your Cherrv Pectoral, and since then has enjoyed perfect health. My children have several times been cured from attacks of the Intiu euza and Croup by it. It is an invaluable remedy for these complaints. Your Cathartic Pills have entirely cured me from a dyspepsia and costiveness, which has grown upon me for some vears, indeed, this cure is much more important, from the fact that I had failed to get relief from the best Physicians which this section of the country affords, and from any of the numerous reme dies l bad taken. , ~ L 1 “You seem to us, Doctor, like a providential blessing to our family, and you may well suppose we are uoi un mindful of it.

A GREAT ELECTRICAL REMEDY Full PREVENTING AND CURING ALL DISEASES OF THE THROAT AND LUNGS. Olive Tar is Applied dnd Inhaled, and is not Taken. DIRECTIONS.—AppIy .by rubbing when; pain or disease exists: then cover the parts with a piaster made of oiled Silk, to which stitch a thin layer of cotton batting; then cover the batting with thin muslin. Cotton-or woollen flannel may be used instead of the oiled silk plaster, but tho operations of) the remedy will not be as speedy, uur as effective. FOR. Inhaling.—Place a saucer over a bowl of hot water, (and keep it hot;) pour into the saucer enough Olive Tar to cover the bottom: the apartment will soon he filled with tta odor, affording to the patient an atmosphere impregna ted with the delightful blended aroma of The Olive anti of the Pine. Renew the Olive Tar daily for luhtdiug b) the above method. Another Method of Inhaling is to put Olive Tar on the Oiled Silk Plaster, which being worn upon the chest, the heat of the bodywill cause the Olive Tar to evaporate grad imlly, and as it rises it will be inhaled. The Oiled Silk Plaster should be medicated with fresh Olive Tar every other day. In acute cases, or in those of long standing, both of the above'luethods of inhalation should be used. By adhering to the above direction, the very worst forms ; of diseases of the Throat or Lungs. if not speedily cored. , will be greatly relieved; while temporary Colds, Sore Throats, Inflamed Lungs, Catarrh, Croup Coughs, Ac.. Ac., will yield at once to its combined curative powers. STAFFORD’S OLcVE TAR softens and penetrates the ' skin: therefore in all all Chronic or active Inflammations it will be found highly beneficial, as it acts directly upon ■ the Nerves, the Muscles and the Joints. OLIVE TAR OINTMENT is made by mixing Olivo Tar i and Mutton Tallow in equal parts. This Oiutment is a j positive cure for all diseases of the skin. i 4®- Pain cannot exist whore Olive Tar or Olive Ointment : Is applied. STAFFORD’S OLIVE TAR does not contain any mineral i substances, nor any poisonous drug: the principal ingredi ents are Pitch Pine Tar. and Oil of the Spanish Olive. STAFFORD’S OLIVE TAR is manufactured by a process recently patented by Mr. J. R. Stafford. Practical Chemist, by which process all the Acid and Acrid properties con tained in the substances forming this Compound are sepa rated without the use of Chemicals. Sold by 11. A. Rockafield.

Dr. KENNEDY, of Roxbury has discovered, In one of our common pasture weeds, a remedy that cures EVERY KIND OE HUMOR, from the worst Scrofula down to a common pimple. Be has tried It in over 1100 cases, and never failed except j in two cases, (both thunder humor.) He has now in his j possession over two hundred certificates of its virtue, all j within twenty miles of Boston. Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing sore mouth. : One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of Pimples on the face. Two to three bottles will clear the system of Biles. Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst, canker in j the mouth or stomach. • Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the worst case ; of Erysipelas. One to two bottles are warranted to cure all humor in the Eyes. . , Two bottles are warranted to cure running of the ears and blotches among the hair. Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and running ulSers. One bottle will cure scaly corruption of the skin. Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the worst case of ringworm. Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the most des perate case of rheumatism. Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the salt rheum. , . . Eive to eight bottles will cure the worst case of scrofula. A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quantity is taken. Reader, I peddled over a thousand l>ottles of this in the vicinity of Boston. I know the effect of it in ever}' ease.— So sure as water will extinguish fire, so sure will this cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it, but that sold an other; after a trial it always speak for itself. There are two things about this herb that appear to me surprising ; first that it grows in our pastures,* in some plat es quite plentiful, and vet its value has uever been known until I discovered it in 1846—second that it should cure all kinds of humor. , , In order to give some idea of the sudden nse, and great popularity of the discovery. I will state that in April, 1 1853,1 peddled |it and sold about six bottles per day—in I April 1854, I sold over one thousand bottles per duy of it- i Some of the wholesale Druggirts who have been in the .business twenty and thirty years, say that nothing iu the | annals of patent medicines was ever like it. There is a - universal praise of it from all quarters. _ I In my own practice I always kept it strictly for humors ! —but since its introduction as a general family medicine great and wonderful virtues have been found iu it that I never suspected. Several cases of epileptic fits—a disease which was al ways considered incurable, have been cured by a few bot tles. 0, what a mercy if it prove effectual in all cases of that awful malady—there are’but few who have seen mor of it than I have. I know of several cases of Dropsy, all of them aged peo ple cured by it. For the various diseases of the Liver, Sick Headache. Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague, I’ain in the side, Diseases of the Spine, and particularly in diseases of the Kidneys, &c., the discovery has done more good than any medicine ever known. No change of diet ever necessary—eat the best you get and enough of it. Directions For Use. —Adults one tablespoonful per day —Children over ten yea/a dessert spoonful. Children from five to eight years, tea spoonful. As no direc tion* can be applicable to all constitutions, take sufficient to operate on the bowels twi«j a day.

The cause-of all ague and billious diseases is the atmospheric poison called Miasma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by its Natural Antidote, and all disease caused by it disap pears at once. Rhodes’ Fever aud Ague Cure is this Anti dote to Malaria, and moreover it is a perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate of the celebrated chemist, J. R. Chilton, of New York, to this effect, is attached to every bottle; therefore if it does no good it can do no harm. This is more than can be said of Quinine, Arsenic, orauy tonic iu existence, as their use is ruinous to the constitu tion and brings on Dumb Ague, which never allows a per son to feel perfectly well for a single moment. In illustra tion of these truths I annex some extracts Irom a letter just received irom a Physician : Georgetown. Ohio.-Maqch 18,1856. JA9. A. RHODES, Esq.—Dear Sir: Yours of 2d inst. is | at hand. The Cure arrived late last year and the difficulty : in getting any one to try it was greatly increased from the the fact that a remedyiad been introduced which was ■ growing In favor with the public, as being better than using > Quinine,—not knowirfg I presume that the remedy they: used to escape taking Quinine, contained the Drug Itself! ; This remedy, {known as -Smith’s Tonic,”) would invari-; bly break an Ague, but it did not cure it, as it would often ; return with renewed vigor. This one circumstance I deem-, ed in your favor, if I could institute a test comparison be-; tween it and your cure. The following is the result: Three persons took your “Cure,” all of which were cases of-Quotidianlntermitteut Fever,” ofmnay weeks standing They had tried Quiuiue, and other remedies, occasionally missing a chill, but it was. (as in all such cases.) slowly wearing them out, and laying the foundation for other and severer maladies. I did succeed in effecting a radical cure of all three of these cases with your remedy, and they have not had a chill since. Iu all three of these cases the “Smith's Tonic” had been used, and would, as before sta ted, break the chill, hut after a period or two had-olapsed would return. ,' ' I think there will be no difficulty now in giving to your “Cure” the advantage ground of any other remedy now in: use here, A.. Ac. WILLIAM BUCKNER, M. D. Rhode’s Fever and Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria, the only harmless remedy in existence, is equally certain' as a preventive, as a “|Cure.” Take it when you feel the : chills coming, and you will never have a single one.

It will; uot nauseate like the plain Oil, but is ou the contrary,’ pleasant to the taste; moreover the Phosphate of Lime is,, in this combination, a most remarkable aid to the healing properties of the pure Cod Liver Oil, as the following cer tificates (selected from a host of like great acknowledg ments) will amply show.

C. M. HOWELL, Treasurer. J REPORT OF THE COUNTY AUDITORS. Wej the undersigned, Auditors of Lancaster County, do certify, that we have carefully examined the forego ing account of Charles M. Howell, Esq., Treasurer of said County, and have compared his vouchers, with the same,'and find there is a balance in his hands of five thousand, on e hundred and twenty-eight dollars and seventy-nine cents, ($5125,79.) In yiew of our recommendation In last year’s Report, relating to outstanding taxes, it appears Collectors have become still more negligent in collecting or paying over to the Treasurer the outstanding amounts in their sev eral duplicates. They should be more prompt in their payments, and we would, therefore, respectfully re commend, that the County Commissioners urge speedy settlement by all delinquent Collectors. We have examined the account of Hugh S. Gara, Esq l ., Treasurer of the Board of Prison Inspectors, and find it correct, showing a balance due him by the board of In spectors of six hundred and fifty-seven dollars and sev enty-six cents, ($657,76.) We also examined the account of James Dysart, Esq., Treasurer of the Poor and House of Employment of Lancaster County, and find a balance in his hands of two hundred and thirty-seven dollars and seventy-seven cents, ($237,77.) The' liabilities of the County for loans from individual at 6jper cent, per annum, at the present time, are sl4o|ooo. In witness whereof, we have hereunto set our hands at the County Commissioners’ Office, this 23rd day 'January, 1857 COMMISSIONERS’ STATEMENT, THE following is a statement of the Commissioners’ Orders and of Coart Bills and Certificates drawn on CHARLES M.
