The increase in the supply this yeafwill
be in-the neighborhood of 2,700;600 'tons of
, Anthracite, which is about -2,00,000

and former year . . If the trade bad'bantinued

inciease in Anthracite coal this year Irodld
hive reached • 2,800,000 tone. The &petty
of the coat region was equal to'an liciosse
of tbrfn natlltoß ton.
The Maimfacturing interests of.tho country
are not worhing_ as; fully as-they .d last
year, owing to over production in some brau-•
ches and want of adecinitte protection in oth

'Wally under oneciatiage_ment, for: when the Railroad
swallowed the Literal roads•of this region,. it took the
Canal to wash them down, and. has held poisr,sion of
it ever since. • -The Canal Company might be unwilling
to admit this: position butit is tine nevertheiess: •••
• Itwas the policy of the principal officers of-the Reading
Company to oppress the lateralroadi not under their

Influence, so as toteFeciatethe yalue of their stet& in'

this, becarise it, would tend to reduce the price of their
;securities, throligkdeductions fromtheir.earning,s; bac
it innst be remembered that very little' of. the capital or.
that company is held for the sake of regular dividends ;
these are merely useful in the stock' programmes.- The:.
holders of -small amounts would be frightened at such
a . result .and' sell ' out' at a thiscis jest What the;
"ring masters.'• would desire. o have. done, 'because: the'
.
operation would pay them far better than any dividend..

tion of th e wonderful cures your MANDRAKE PILLS
and'SEAWEED TONIC have effected-in the entire
. cure of 'one of the most - stubborn cases:of the liver.—
For three yearel suffered beyond descriptiOn : all my
friends; as well as Myself, came to the conclusion that
my time in this life was short: Such' was the 'terrible'
condition to which I was reduced "that - . life to me had
'become a burthen my whole.system was in a state - of
inflammation I could not eat, I could nut - sleep ; my'
' . whole body
,was tilled with pain: swelling Would arise
in my wrists and ankles, rendering them .totally use
' less. •On several occasions I was attacked with a rush
or blood to the head, which would fell 'me. to the
ground, and I-Would be carried away for dead. I ap- •
plied to several eminent - physicians of our' city, who
administered all the.medicines that they thought would •
reach my-case, but' fno avail: • • . .
' One of.them said he could do no more for ine, and
advised Me, as &last' resort, to drink cod liver oil
Not relishing the horrid trash I declined take It:—
Accident put your advertisement in my "hands.." I
criled on you: you examined me , and told meth° ha, .
turd-of my . diseaae. - You then ordered' me too Pills.
'and Tonic with' an observance of diet,- pledging yciur
word that in one • week I- would find myself another
-man. - I followed yoni advice, and as you predicted, an.
astonishing cure was effected.. I continued your Pills
arid Tonic for sometime, and now-thank llod Cur Ilia
, goodness, and your valuable medicine,. I am once more
restored to perfect health. • I most earnestly
"nxam
'mend those who are suffering from affection of the
liver - to give your and .Tonic a fair trial, and a
