An i .J j nice of music, Dr. BROWN, discourses some
tit as i ll'i.vs in reference to psalm singing in the vil- j

a!ns in villages is often as mean in melody and deli- j
cat in sense as the words which are sung. In great j

• FIRE. —We lenrn by a private letter
that a fire broke out, about 5 o'clock, p. m., on the 3d
inst.,in a wood-house attached to the dwelling of S. N.
BRONSON. on Orwell Hill. The catastrophe was caused
by some young children building a fire in an old stove,
with no pipe attached. Through the prompt and vigor
ous exertions of the citizens the fiie was subdued before
much damage was done.
DINNER TO JUDGE EI.WELL. —The mem
bers of the bar and officers of the Court, tendered to
Judge ELWELL the compliment of a public dinner, on the
occasion of his leaving the bar of the County, in con=e
quenee of his election as President Judge of the 26th Ju
dicial District. In this testimonial many of our promi
nent citizens participated, and Judge ELWELL having
signified his willingness to meet his fellow-citizens on
the occasion, Wednesday 26th ult. was fixed upon as the
time.
On the appointed evening, the company gathered at
the Ward House, to participate in the ceremonies of the
occasion. Present, the Court, the bar, officers of the
Court, with many of our citizens—comprising enough of
the staid, sober and discreet—to tone down the hilarity
of practitioners at the bar. DAVID CASH, Esq., as the
oldest member of the bur, present, presided.
After partaking of a magnificent supper, got up in the
Ward House usual style and profusion, the cloth was re
moved,and speech-making was in order. We can hardly
name the orators of the occasion, who all paid the high
est compliments to Mr. ELWELL,and expressed the gen
eral regret of the bar and the community in parting with
him. Mr. ELWELL'S remarks were peculiarly felicitious,
evincing the feeling under which he labored, and the
emotions caused by this manifestation of the good will
and esteem of his neighbors. The company separated
at an early hour.
COURT PROCEEDINGS. —The December
Term and Sessions of our County Courts , commenced on
Monday, Dec. 1, 1862, before Hon. U, MERCUR, President

Santord, A. M. Swaiu . Howard Taylor.
The business before the Grand Jury was unusually
light, and shows a marked improvement in the morals of
the County, being confined principally to assault and
battery cases of trivial importance, many of which were
settled without the aid of a Jury, and costs paid by the
parties. The following bills were attcd upon by the
Grand Jury :

At Avon. Livingston Co.. X. Y.. Oct. 31. J862, Miss
EMILY BROWER, daughter of Mr. R. Brower, aged
33 years.
The death of this truly excellent young lady lias cast
the pall of mourning over an affectionate family, and
brought sorrow to a large circle of true friends.
Miss EMILY was a most excellent young person : as a
child, she was all that affectionate parents could desire
—dutiful, affectionate and tender. As a a sister, she
was all that the truly angel term, sister, implies—sweet,
j gentle, lovely and pure. As a friend, she was kind and
! true. Although this visitation of Divine Providence
1 brought great sorrow upon this excellent family, yet
j death entered their domestic circle stripped of all its
! terrors ; it came like a kind angel to release the heaven
■ ly spirit from its earthly clay ; it came not unexpected ;
> it hovered round and round, and lingered oft, as if un
, | willing to perform its office; and when at last, by GOD'S
- command it touched the suffering saint, its touch was
s soft as that of a kind mother npon her infant's brow :
I the vital current stood still at its source ; the tired
s j wheels of nature ceased to move, and the pure spirit
' took its upward flight.
The funeral took place on the Sabbath following- A
short discourse was given by Rev. C. M. GARDNER, pas
tor of the M. E. < hurch, founded on Job, 14, 14 : " If a
man die, shall he live again," after which her loved form
was committed to the grave amid the tears of many.—
May the GOD of Providence, in His great mercy, sanctify
this affliction to the good of all! G.
In Towanda. Nov 25. after n long and distressing ill
ness, Miss PHEBE NEEDHAM, in the 25th year of
her age.
Age and j-outh bow alike 'neath the sceptre swayed
by the messenger, riding forth upon Lis pale steed con
quering and to conquer; and while looking upon the
pallid features of one whose days were but a little more
than a score of years, tlie wish is within the heart that
it might have been otherwise ; but the recollection is at
hand, that GOD'S ways are not as our ways, and we bow
in submission to His will, firmly in faith that " He do
eth all things well."
Our departed friend was blest with strong original
powers of mind, and a well cultivated intellect; and
would have long remained an ornament to society and a
blessing to the world ; but alas ! consumption marked
her for a victim, and after two years of suffering she
passed through the cloud overhanging the river, to the
blissful home on the farther shore.
" Then stay the tear : the blest above
Have hailed a spirit's heavenly birth,
And sung a song of joy and love ;
Then why should anguish reign on earth ?"
COM.
At the residence of James Harris, Esq. in this borough
on the
SUSAN TALLADAY, aged 75 years.
The deceased was born in Hackettstown, Sussex Co.,
N. J., Nov. 30. 1787, and came to this county in 1802,
being at the time of her death, probably, the oldest in
habitant in the county. She was married in 1805, and
united with the M. E. Church, in Monroeton, in 1842.
She was an upright and consistent christian, an affec
tionate wife, and a devoted mother. Gathered in the
ripeness of years, her relatives mourn her loss, and re
vere her memory with the tenderest reg rd.
HENRY H. BROWN, of Orwell, enlisted as a soldier
at Towanda, April 20th, 1801, and went south and took
his station in the ranks of th ■ army of the Potomac, and
there served hiseonntry faithfully, passing through t ;e
battles of the Peninsula unhurt : but at the battle of Bull
Run, Ang.3olh. 1802. lie was instantly killed by a shot
from a musket in the hands of a traitor.
Though y >ung in years—at the time of his death be
ing under twenty—yet his character had already been
formed in a manner of which his friends had just reason
to be proud.
In childhood obedient to parental precept, and in
youth striving t > the utmost of his power t contribute tc
the enjoyment of those around him. When verging in
to manhood, his footsteps were upon the line of integ
ritv, while a resolution was within his heart to act his
part in life in a manner that should not cause his friends
to blush at the mention of his n line. Well did he suc
ceed. The blight of rowdyism was no! upon his soul.—
Generous, honest, brave ; a patriot, worthy to live and
while living woithy to die, lie went out and laid his
young life upon the altar of liberty ; a sacrifice lor the
salvation ol his country.
Rest to to the dust on the far-off battle-field ; respect
to the virtues adorning his character in life, and grati
tude, deep, lasting gratitude for the sacrifice in enter
ing the valley of shadows ! COM.

Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
A COMPOUND REMEDY, in which we
have labored is produce the most effectual aitera
ive that can be made. It is a concentrated extract of
Para Sar=aparilla, so combined with other substance! of
still greater alterative power as to afford an effective an
tidote tor the diseases Sa-sapaiilla ri reputed to cure. It
is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that oue which will
accomplish their cure must prove of immense service to
this large class of onr afflicted lellow citizens. How com
pletely this compound will do it has been proven by ex
perinent on many of the worst cases to be found of the
fallowing complaints:—
SCROFULA ANI* SCROFUIOUS COM! LAINTS, ERUPTIONS
AND ETTCPTIVE DISEASES, ULCERS, I'UIPLKS, lILOTCnRS,
TUMORS, SAI.T RHEUM, SCALD limy, SYPHILLS AND
SYPHILITIC AFFECTIONS, MERCURIAL DISEASE, DROPSY,
NEURALGIA OK TIC DOULOUREUX. DEBILITY, DYSPEPSIA
AND INDIGESTION, ERYSIPELAS, ROSE OR ST. ANTHONY A
FIRE, and indeed the whole class of complaints arising
from IMPURITY or THE BLOOD. ,
This compound will be found a great promoter or
health, when taken in the spring, to expel the foul hu
mors which fester in tl;e blood at that season of the tear
By the timely expulsion of them many rankling disor
ders are nipped in the hud. Multitudes can by the aid
of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance of
foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the
system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if uat as
sisted to do this through the natural channelsot toe
body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated
blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through
the skin in piiuples, eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it when
you find it is obstructed and sluggish iu the veins ;
cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Even where no particular disorder is felt,
peopb- enjoy better he tlth. and live longci, foi cleansing
the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well ; but
with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be no
lasting health. Sooner or later something must go
wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or
overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has. and deserves ranch, the reputation,
of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been
egregiousiy deceived bv preparations ol it, partly because
the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed ;or
it, but more because many preparations, pretending to be
concentrated extracts of it, contain but little ot the Yir*
tue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing e!-e.
During l ite years the public have been misled by large
Dottles, pretending to give a quart ol Extract ot Bursa
pariila for one d'dlar. Most ot these have been frauds
upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any,
Sarsaparilla, but often no curative properties whatever.
Hence, hitter and paiitltil disappointment has followed
the use of the various extracts oi Sar-aparilla which
Hood the market, until the name it>dl is justly despised,
and lias become synonymous with imposition and cheat.
Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla. and intend to
supple such a remedy a-* shall rescue the name hem th©
load of obloquy which rests upoh it. And vvc think we
have ground tor believing it has \ .;>ucs which are ir
l csi-tuble bv the ordinary run of the diseases it is intend
ed to t rue." In order to "secure their complete eradica
tion from the system, the remedy should be judiciously
taken according to dire- turns <Ol the bottle.

" To he. or not to be— hat is the question 1
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous opposition,
Or by taking up arms against a sea of printing ink.
And opposing, end them."
rj-iH p; proprietor of the Argus takes occasion in adver-
X tising his Bindery to indulge in an uncalled for fling
about'a "sort of a concern," which is hoping "to delude
the public." As 1 have opened a Bindery ou my own ac
count, the inference is that ir the public bring their
binding to me, they are in no danger of being defrauded.
For two years 1 have worked for Mr. PARSONS, and he
has taken great pains t satisfy the public i was the " best
Binder in America," as the columns of the Argus wil
testify. Has he been all that time " deluding the pub
lie?" If I have been engaged in a fraud, he has been th
principal. But I refer to my work during that time a
evidence that there has lrcen no fraud practiced.
Having served a long apprenticeship at the Bindery
business, I have resumed business here on my own ac
count.as 1 know ut nothing which prevents me from fol
lowing a legitimate and hawful calling for tuy support.—
I shall endeavor by goad work and attention to my busi
ness to give public satisfaction.
