The Retirement of Lord Lyons.
[Prom the London 'Times, Feb. 23.]
The public will hear with great regret
that Lord Lyons has been compelled by
the
that,
of his health to resign the post
of British Minister at Washington,
which he has filled for six years with
so much ability and judgment. No one,
indeed, who knows the nature of the
work which he has had to discharge
during the last four years of his office
will be surprised at his being compelled
to retire. The mere physical labor,
which has been entailed upon him
would alone be enough to account for
the necessity of his resignation. Mr.
Layard gave an occount the other sight
of the business which has been trans
acted during the last three or four years
at the Washington Embassy, and, ex
cept upon such authority, the amount
4 would be almost incredible. The cor
respondence of one year filled to large
folio volumes. In less than three years
there were 13,948 entries of single des
patches in the Foreign-office registers,
and nearly all of these contained in
closures, one of them having no less
than 203.
. _
The close and multitudinous relations
of this country with America have, in
fact, been entangled and twisted in
inextricable confusion, and these volum
inous letters and in.closures are probably
but an inadequate representation of the
innumerable knots which Lord Lyons
has had to untie. Questions of block
ade and of nationality, complaints from
British subjects, demands by the British
government, the valuable despatches of
Mr. Seward, and his incessant demands
and representations—all these com
bined have taken the energies of the
mission and the supervision of the
Minister to a probably unprecedented
extent. But the amount of the busi
ness thus transacted must, after all,
have been the least part of its burden.
The anxiety of the office must have
been far more trying than its labor.
Seldom has there been a more import
ant post at a more critical time. The
consequences which have depended for
the last few years on the due conduct
of our relations with the United States
have been momentous in the extreme,
and there has scarcely been any mo
ment within that period at which those
relations might not have been compro
mised by a failure in courtesy or dis
cretion.
Mr. Lincoln's government indeed has,
it must be confessed, displayed a credi
table or a prudent self-control under the
various excitements of the time, yet the
temper of the American public has con
stantly been such that a slight indiscre
tion on our part might havd made it im
possible for the President and his Min
ister to be more moderate than the peo
ple whom they represent. It reflects
the greatest credit on Lord Lyons, that
- during this critical and difficult period
he has uniformly smoothed the rdugh
ness and adjusted the difficulties which
arose, and that Mr. Layard could say
the other night that "in no instance
has he not received the entire approval
of her Majesty's Governmen`.."
The more satisfactorily, however, he
has filled his difficult' post the greater
our regret at his enforced retirement,
particularly at a moment when clouds
on all sides threaten a difficult if nut a
stormy course to the pilot of our interests
in America. Lord Lyons has seen the
ship of the American State drift from a
safe harbor into the unknown waters of
a dangerous and tempestuous sea. It is
no \ - Koudey if he is overwearied by the
strain of watching her perilous course,
but he resigns a difficult and uncertain
task to his successor. It is, indeed, ex
traordinary to reflect upon the changes
which his comparatively short term of
office has witnessed. A period is not
al ways to be measured by the mere lapse
of time, and a succession of events has
been crowded into the six years of Lord
Lyons' employment which would
have been thought not long ago,
too many and too vast for the lifetime of
one man. He was appointed in ISIS, yet
what an era has passed since then !
Three short years have witnessed the
violent disruption of the greatest power
in the New World, the growth of a war
almost unexampled in its magnitude,
and, whatever may be the ultimate re
sult of the struggle, the utter subversion
of all the most cherished institutions of
a great and prosperous nation. When
Lord Lyons went to Washington the
UniCed States stretched in peaceful and
prosperous dominion from the Gulf to
the St. Lawrence, and from the Pacific
to the Atlantic they were the favorite
model of free and republican insti
tutions, they scarcely possessed an army,
they had an absolutely insignificant
debt, and the whole energy of their in
dustrious and vigorous population was
devoted to commerce, to agriculture, to
learning and the arts. Lord Lyons leaves
them in the convulsions of a political
earthquake. One vast chasm yawns
from East to West, dividing by blood
and fire two hostile sections of a scarce
ly kindred race; republican institutions
are rapidly becoming imperial in almost
all but the name, personal freedom is a
memory of the past; enormous armies,
like swarms of locusts, devour the
face of the -country; a debt un
paralleled for its growth and threat
ening aspect overshadows the resources
of the nation, and the whole energy of
the people is withdrawn from the life
giving exercise of peace to the exhaust
ing fever of war. When Lord Lyons
first went to his mission the country he
was accredited to was the United States.
It is difficult to say what it should be
called now, impossible to foresee what
it will be. Those six years in fact have
seen the rise and the development of a
tremendous revolution, and if we are
sending out a new minister it is to an
entirely new state of things.
The successor of Lord Lyons in this
momentous post will be Sir Frederick
Bruce, who at present holds the office
of Minister in China, but happens op
portunely to be in England. There is
no reason to doubt that in making this
selection the government have had am
ple regard to the qualifications neces
sary for the office. Sir F. Bruce has
greatly distinguished himself by his
conduct of our troublesome negotiations
with the Court of Pekin, and though he
will have a very different person to deal
with in Washington, yet a man who
has been energetic, acute and successful
in one place will probably be energetic
and acute, and will at least deserve to
be successful in another. Perhaps, in
the surging sea which American poli
tics represent at the present time, an
intimate acquaintance with the recent
traditions of our Ministry at Washing
ton may be of less importance than it
would have been otherwise.
The movements have been so rapid,
the influences so uncertain that the
course pursued atone moment may have
to be forgotten the next. But though,
Sir F.'Bruce has not been recently em
ployed in any post connected with his
new office, he is not entirely inexperi
- erred in American affairs. His first
employment was when attached to the
late Loyd Ashburton's special mission
to Washington in 1842, when the famous
Ashburton treaty was negotiated. Sub
sequently, for a year, he was Lieuten
ant Governor of Newfoundland and
from 1847 to 1851 he was employed in
various posts in South America. Four
years after this he went with his brother
Lord Elgin to China, and has since been
entirely employed in that country.
By a fortunate coincidence he will
arrive in America just when Mr. Lin
coln will have entered upon his second
term of office. It will, perhaps, have
an opportune significance that a new
Minister should thus be accredited to
the United. States at the commence
ment of this new period in her annals.
A wild fancy had a little while ago pos
session of the American mind, that
England and France contemplated a
sort of underhand recognition of the
Confederacy on the 4th of March by ac
knowledging Mr. Lincoln as President
of those States which had taken part
in his election. The incredulous sur
prise with which this announcement of
our intentions was received on this
side of the water would have been
sufficient to convince the public
of both countries of their mistake.
But the Americans are peculiarly
hard to convince against their will and
it may be fortunate, therefore, a marked
refutation will be given to their delu
sion. The arrival of a new Minister,
accredited to the government whose
authority we still acknowledge, will be
a more conspicuous evidence of the fal
lacy of these strange anticipations than
the return of Lord Lyons. It may,
perhaps, be made more evident that, in
stead of in any way slighting their gov
ernment, we are paying it the distinct
attention of selecting a new Minister to
represent us.

Death Priutooneed::J gat Jesus
Christ. -- -
The following is a copy of the most
memorable judicial sentence which has
ever been pronounced in the fauna of
the world—namely, that of death against
the Saviour, with the remarks which the
journal Le Droit has collected, and_the
knowledge of which moat be interesting
in the highest degree toetery Christian.
It is word for word as follows :
Sentence pronounced by Pontius Pi
late, intendant of the province of Lower
Galilee, that Jesus of Nazareth shall suf
fer death by the cross.
In the seventeenth year of the reign
of the Emperor Tiberias, and on the 25th
day of the month of March, in the most
holy city of Jerusalem, during the pon
tificate of Annas and Caiaphas.
Pontius Pilate, intendant of the pro
vince of Lower Galilee, sitting in judg
ment in the presidential seat of the prae
tor, sentences Jesus of Nazareth to death
on a cross between two robbers, as the
numerous and notorious testimonies of
the people prove :
1. Jesus is a misleader.
2. He has excited the people to sedi-
3. He is an enemy to the laws.
4. He calls himself the Son of God.
5. He calls himself falsely the King
of Israel.
6. He went into the temple, followed
by a multitude carrying palms in their
hands.
Orders .the first centurian, Quirilius
Cornelius, to bring him to the place of
execution.
Forbids all persons, rich or poor, to
prevent the execution of Jesus.
The witnesses who have signed the
execution against Jesus are
1. Daniel Robani, Pharisee.
2. John Zorobabel.
3. Raphael Robani.
4. Capet. :-
Jesus to be taken out of Jerusalem
through the gate of Tournes.
This sentence is engraved on a plate
of brass, in the Hebrew language, and
on its sides are the following words :
"A similar plate has been sent to each
tribe." It was discovered in the year
1280, in the city of Aquila, in the king
dom of Naples, by a search made for
the discovery of the Roman antiquities,
and remained there until it was found
by the corn missaries of art in the French
army of Italy. Up to the time of the
campaign in Southern Italy, it was pre
served in the sacristy of the Carth usians,
near Naples, where it was kept in a box
of ebony. Since then the relic has been
kept in the Chapel of Caserta. The Car
thusians obtained by their petitions
that the plate might be kept by them,
which was an acknowledgement of the
sacrifices which they made for the
French army. The French translation
was made literally by members of the
commission of arts. Denon had a far
simile of the plate engraved, which was
bought by Lord Howard, on the sale of
his cabinet for 2,890 francs. Thereseem
to be no historical doubts as to the au
thenticity of this. The reasons of the
sentence correspond exactly with those
of the Gospel.—Translated from the
Kolnishc Zcitung.
Popular Science
Cornelius O'Dowd, in the last Black
wood, indulges in a humorous protest
against popularizing science, especially
as it effects Mrs. O'Dowd. He comes
home and findkthat estimable lady in
tears because she - has learned at the
Scientific Congress that the coal fields
cannot last over twelve thousand years,
and that the earth's crust is a seventeenth
of an inch. thinner than it was at the
time of Moses. And then he asks,
" What right has Sir David
Brewster or Professor Faraday to fill my
wife's head with speculations about the
first man ? I am, or at least ought to
be, the first man to her." But even
this is not so bad as the dismal infor
mation thrust upon him regarding the
constituents of which both are com
posed. I do not desire to have it im
pressed on me so forcibly that I am only
a compound of neutral salts, gelatine,
fibrine and adipose matter. It is no
pleasure to me to regard Mrs. O'Dowd
as a vehicle for phosphate of lime, va
rip44 carbonates and an appreciable
portion of arsenic."
Exports of the Sandwich Islands
The following reports of the exports
from the Sandwich Islands, which we
clip from the Hondlular Advertiser of
January 21st, shows how rapidly those
far off Islands are increasing in wealth
and material prosperity. They are one
of the finest sugar producing regions in
the world. The Advertiser says :
A small table will show how rapidly
our exports have increased.

The increase of sugar will attract the
attention of every one. The quantity
given is the amount exported, but in
estimating our total product for 1864,
there should be allowance for home
consumption, which would increase the
total to about eleven mil/ions of pounds
as the product for 1864. The develop
ment of this branch of industry will be
as marked during 1865 as in the previ
ous year, and our total crop will not be
much under twenty millions of pounds.
Molasses shows a considerable gain.
Rice and paddy amount to about the
same, with this important change, that
the paddy is cleaned before being ex
ported, thus giving to the country the
benefit of the labor required to prepare
it for market. It is generally acknowl
edged in foreign markets, that our
cleaned rice is the best article to be had,
rivalling ini_every respect the far-famed
South Carolina rice of former years.
With the high price it commands in
California, its cultivation must increase
during the present year.
The pulu shipments have been large,
and about the average of former years.
Fungus still affords to Chinamen a good
means of remittance to China. Cotton
begins to figure among our exports, but
occupies an humble place. Several new
articles of product will be found in the
list, among them, sandal-wood, rags,
taro, peanuts, &c.
In liquors, the consumption has in
creased about twenty per' cent., which
is about the increase in the foreign
population, which mainly consumes it.
Altogether, the statistics present a
very satisfactory exhibit of the com
mercial condition and prospects of the
island, and we see no reason to antici
pate any change for the worse during
the present year.
About Quotas
A reply to Governor .Curtin's letter
upon the subject of computing quotas
has been sent to the President by Attor
ney General Speed, in which the Gov
ernor's suggestions are refused and his
arguments attempted to be overthrown.
The document is very long and very ob
scure. The period of service, it is con
tended, is the proper way, under the
law, of computing quotas, and not that
of estimating the number of men in
service. For instance, if Pennsylvania
has fifty thousand one year's men in
service at the time the quotas are as
signed for a draft, and Massachusetts
has fifty thousand Belgians and negroes
in for three years, Pennsylvania willget
credit for fifty thousand while Massa
chusetts will be credited with one hun
dred and fifty thousand, by multiplying
her men by the term of service. It is
easy, under these circumstances, to see
how our State has been figured into
furnishing forty-nine thousand and odd
hundreds, against the eight thousand of
Massachusetts.—Patriot and Union.
The Delaware and Raritan Canal was

A New Island.
The CoramercialAdverti,ser, published
at Honolulu, on the Sandwich Islands,
in its issue of January 21st, has theifol
lowing notice of the discovery of a new
island in the Pacific. It says :
On the passage of the missionary
packet Morning Star from the Micrti
nesian Islands to this port, Capt. Gelett
discovered a new Island, located in
North latitude 4',
and FP-qt longi
tude 154° 2', or about 800 miles N. N. E.
from Guam. On the evening of Decem
ber 16, he observed numerous land
birds, which increased in number the
next morning, and remarked that land
must be near by, which was discovered
at 3P. M. of the 17th. The Island is
about five miles long, dengely covered
with trees and shrubbery, with a white
sand beach, and rises in a knoll at the
centre, perhaps two hundred feet above
the sea. The brig passed within three or
four miles of it about sunset, and break
ers were seen all around. There were
no signs of inhabitants living on it,
though all hands on board kept a close
lookout. A reef extends to the North
of the island. On the old Admiralty
charts a doubtful Island is noted in the
vicinity of the one discovered, but on
Wilkes' American chart and on Luray's
London chart none is laid down within
100 miles of the spot. The discovery of
this fertile island is important, and is
reliable. We propose to name it Gelett
Island, in honor of the Captain of the
brig. It ought to be visited by some
war vessel, and fully explored. It lies
directly in the track of whalers bound
from Ascension to the Ochotsk or Arctic.
Westmoreland oil Regions
There seems to be no end to the Oil
territory of this State. The Westmore
land Republican has following notice of
matters in that county :
Recent investigations direct increased
attention to this County. Several dis
tinguished geologists have been exam
ining the soil, and have arrived at the
conclusion that Westmoreland is the
centre of the great oil basin, whose out
crops extend, on one hand, to West
Virginia, and, on the other to Venango.
The greater 'portion of the land in
this county, is sold or leased to those
who intend to operate in oil. It is true
that the boring must be deeper in this
county, than in Venango, because it is
the centre of the basin, but in return,
we will be compensated with more, en
during wells of petroleum. Every citi
zen should endeavor to develop the re
sources of his own county. Whyshould
ourcitizens expend their time and money
in other States and counties, when they
will be just as well compensated in
Westmoreland? Here labor is not half
as high, and fuel does not cost the one
tenth of what it does on Oil Creek.—
Citizens, at their own homes, can super
intend their own operations, and bore
for the lubricating fluid in the presence
of their own household deities. Econo-
My would be thus consulted, expenses
curtailed, and the whole country bene
fltted.—fiepublican.
Shooting Affair at Bladensburg
' Sunday afternoon a young man
named Hiram Dowden was shot and
killed at Bladensburg by a cavalry sol
dier on the portico of Howell's restau
rant, under the followingcircumstances:
Young Dowden, who was a clerk in the
shoe store of C. F. Cummings & Co.,
Seventh street, near New York avenue,
has been in the habit of visiting his
grandfather, Mr. Clements, at Bladens
burg, every Sunday. Last Sunday after
noon, being ready to return to the city,
he went Co Howell's restaurant with
some acquaintances a.id took a , eat on
the back portico to await for arrival '4uf
the cars. Conversation ensued among
the young men, and the subject was the
situation of South Carolina, and young
Dowden claimed that she was not
whipped yet. According to one ac
count he hurrahed for South Carolina
and Jeff. Davis, but this is denied by
his friends.
The cavalry soldier walked up to
him, put his hand on him and remarked,
" I want you!" Young Dowden denied
the soldier's right to arrest him. The
soldier told him he was under arrest,
but Dowden still refused to acknowledge
it, and still maintained his position on
the chair. The soldier drew his revol
ver, presented it and fired, the ball en
tering Dowden's forehead, about half all
inch above the eye, and passed through
the head, causing death in a few min
utes. Thesoldier immediately mounted
his horse and left the village in haste,
by the old bridge road. Upon reaching
the guards near the camps, he was halt
ed by a sentinel who inquired the cause
of his haste. He only replied, " I have
shot some one !" and passed on to Fort
Baker, where, we hear, he was arrested
by the officer of the day, and is now in
custody for trial.— Washington Star,
An Outrage
The Tunkhannock Democrat says:
Williath Larkins and his accomplices,
in the murder of Isaac Sickler, are still
kept from the civil authorities of this
county, under the pretense that he will
be tried by military law, which our
rulers give us to understand, has super
seded the civil laws. Does any sane
man doubt that we are the servile sub
jects of a military despot? Mark the
contrast. But a few months since, a
nigger deserter while in the act of desert
ing was shot by those who had him in
charge. The military authorities very
properly rci'u,ing to interfere, the civil
laws were enforced and the offhnder is
now expiating his offence in the peni
tentiary.
A few days since a deputy Provost
Marshal with three or four reckless
vagabonds, in making a triumphal tour
through our county, out of mere wan
tonness, and without the slightest pro
vocation or justification, shot down in
the road a peaceable, unarmed citizen.
In this case the functions of the civil
law are suspended! The victim was
only a white man, and a democrat!
The murderer will probably have a
mock military trial, and will doubtless
be fully acquitted, and turned loose up
on society to continue his pistol prac
tice upon other human targets! Being
careful, only, not to injure nigger de
serters!
A 'Victim to Mr. Seward's Correspon-
From the evidence produced from the
British Foreign Office it arpears that
Lord Lyons was utterly broken, and so
compelled to resign his post of British
Minister at Washington, in consequence
of the unparalleled task to which he was
subjected in his eftbrts to keep up with
Mr. Seward's voluminious diplomatic
correspondence. The letters connected
with her Majesty's Washington embassy
for one year tilled sixty large folio vol
umes. Lord Lyons has succumbed to
the pressure and retired, and Sir Fred
erick Bruce, thoroughly trained in the
long-winded diplomacy of China, comes
to take his place. We congratulate
Lord Lyons, and we sympathize with
Sir Frederick Bruce.—X. Y. Herald.
A writen in Blackwood professes to

Ma properties of the-. Company consist of
FOUR HUNDRED and THIRTY-ONE ACRES
of land in separate tracts.
No. 1. A lease for the term of ninety-nine
years of a tract of land, containing ninety-one
Acres, situated in Jefferson county, Pennetyi
vania, on the south bank of the Clarion river,
near Clarington, and is subjectqo only one
tenth royalty. There is 'an extensive Bed of
Bituminous Coal on the tract, and the greater
part is covered with very heavy Timber. The
use of all the Coal and Titaberhas been secured
by the Company. There is also, a Salt Spring
and a Gas Spring on the premises, which with
the dark color, and light specific gravity of the
Oil found in the vicinity are considered sate in
dications of Oil in verylarge quantities. The
surface indications are of the most reliable
character. Oil and Gem Springs are numerous,
and the oil in many places is fotmdperoolating
through the surface of the ground. About 20
Acres is low bottom land extending along the
edg e of the river about three-fourths of a mile.
affording excellent :facilities for afnkind a
number of wells, and of shipping the oil - by
water, without resorting to any conveyance by
land, which is al a' san item of very great ex
pense. The Cian river is }Wargo stream
navigable for flatboats and rafts capable of
carrying on each boat one thousand barrels o
Oil westwardly, direct to Pittsburg and the
Ohio river, and eastwardly to Ridgway on the
Philadelphia and Erie Railroad, only a few
miles distant. The completion of this great
thoroughfare through our State to the great
West, which has been opened within the last
few months will, by affording facilities of com
munication and travel, insure the rapid de
velopment of this whole region. Proposals for
running a new Railroad directly through this
locality to Venango county' are now being
made. The valley of the Clarion river is fast
becoming the most popular andvalbable Oil Ter
ritoryin the United States.
A number of years ago a few experienced and
practical oil men noticed the great deposits of
Asphaltum, and beds of Bituminous Coal and
Bituminous Limestone, which abound in Jef
ferson, Elk and Forrest counties, and from
their formation and the declination of the
slopes of the strata, became convinced that Jef
ferson county was the great oil basin of Penn
sylvania, they accordingly purchased large
quantities of land, and are now disposing of it
at fabulous prices.
We cannot point out a number of wells yield
ing great quantities of oil in this immediate
vicinity, from the fact that no efforts have
hitherto been made to develop it; but a little
further down the river a large number of the
most valuable wells in the country have been
obtained, with more flattering results the
nearer theylapproach this location, and by com
paring the geological formation or the country
with that of the best oil-producing territory,
no doubt exists in the minds of scientific men
that it will be at least equal to the best.
No. 1. A lease for twenty years of a tract of
land known as the "Patton Farm," containing
eighty acres in Hocking county, Ohio, on the
west side of Hocking river. raccoon creek
and two other sreams that empty into the
river runs through this tract. This river is navi
gable for Flat boats patt of the year. The
property fronts on the river, about one-third
of a mile and is distant only one-fourth of a
mile from the Hocking Canal, which intersects
the Marietta and Cincinnati Railroad, at
Athens. There is an abundance of bituminous
coal on this tract; the land ist hilly and has
deep ravines with every indication of an
abundance of oil. There is a spring on the
farm which cannot be used for watering stock
on account of being 10 strongly impregnated
with oil.
No. 2. A lease for twenty years of a tract of
land known as the "Henderson Farm," con
tainining seventy-five acres in Hocking coun
ty, Ohio, on the Big Raccoon Creek, distant
about two and a half miles from the Canal.—
The Newark Railroad runs through it. A large
portion of this tract is bottom land and the
balance hills with plenty of coal in them and
good indications of oil,
No. 4. A lease for twenty years of a tract of
land known as the "Crosby Farm," containing
seventy-nine acres, in Hocking county, Ohio,
about one and a quarter miles from the Canal.
This tract lying on Big Raccoon Creek is
mountaineous. and.has deep ravines with good
prospects for oil.
No. '5. A lease for twenty years of a tract of
land known as the " McAllister Farm." con
taining fifty Acres, in Hocking county, Ohio,
half a mile from the Canal. The locality of this
Tract is as good as the Patton lease having
every indication of a good supply of oil.
The last leases are subject to one fifth royalty
and secures to the Company the right to all the
011, Coal, Iron and other valuable substances
found thereon.
It The fee simple of a tract of land known as
the "Moore Farm," containing Fifty-six acres
on Five-mile creek, in Hocking county, Ohio,
distant three miles from the canal. The New
ark railroad runs through the farm. There is
a mountain on each side of the tract—the one
has an abundance of excellent iron ore, and the
other a large quantity of coal, and there is a
furnace within half a mile. :
This is a valuable investment, independent
of tile oil we expect to obtain from it, the indi
cations of which are very strong here. There
was a well dug on the fp= several years ago
for the purpose of watering cattle, but there is
so much oil in the water that cattle will not
drikk it. The oil found on the Ohio lands is
the "Lubricating Oil," which is much more
valuable than that found in Pennsylvania.
There are a number of valuable producing
wells in close proximity to all of the above
properties; but the regions are only beginning
to be developed, and have every indication of
being located in the very best oil territory.
The great excitement now only com
mencing to rage In regard to oil territory on
the Clarion and Hocking rivers and their tri
butanes, and the fact of the Company having
so large all amount in different locations, leaves
no doubt in the minds of the Directors that the
Company will be able, in a short time, to dis
pose of a portion of its property at prices far
exceeding the original cost, thereby securing
large dividends to the stockholders,
even before any oil Is obtained; as, after dis
posing of a large portion, the Company will
still have amply sufficient territory for the
purpose of development. In calling the atten
tion of capitalists and the public generally to
this enterprise, the Directors have determined
to spare no efforts to push the sinking of wells
to completion as fast as possible, with the view
of realizing permanent business profit to the
stockoolders at the earliest moment, and they
have no hesitancy In expressing the belief
that the return will be more certain and liberal
than irom any other investment. To give an
idea of the immenseprofit to be derived from
earnest and successful working, it is only ne
cessary to state that a stir - 6 , de Company is pay
ing to its stockholders in cash div dends alone
the sum of one million dollars per year.
The inducements now offered by this Com
pany to those desirous of obtaining an interest
in a source of wealth that is now startling the
whole world are well worthy of serious con
sideration.
The public are respectfully invited to call at
tile office of the Company, where every infor
mation In regard to its workings and prospects
will be freely given, and detailed Maps and
Charts exhibited.
Subscriptions to a limited part of the stock
,a large portion having already been taken)
will be received at the original price of Si per
share, and subject to no further assessment.

heart, will clog up the lungs, will stupefy the
brain, will obstruct the liver, and will semi its
disease producing elements to all parts of the
system, and every one will sutler In whatever
organ may be predisposed to disease.
The great value of
IRON AS A :11 Enl LINE
Is well known and acknowledged by all medi
cal men. The difficulty bas been to obtain such

Syrup, by combination in a way before un
known.
