THURSDAY, JANUARY 22, 1874.
William E. Littleton has been
Importuned to run for Mayor of Phila
delphia ou the citizen's ticket.
The lost paid preacher in Naw York
gets $50 bo hour; t ho lending singer in
the same church gets $10 so hour.
A. couplk of drunken whito men
Lung a colored man to a lamp post in
Lancaster, ivunday night, because lie re
fused to answer impertinent quostions
put by them. He was cut down in time
to save hia lifo, being al nost strangled.
Thb matter is to bo. investigated.
A man named W, C. Dixon was ar
rested Monday night at Pittsburgh, lit
is Bupposed to bo connected with the
recent great diamond robbery in Cincin
nati. He had been selling diamonds in
that city and had deposited 31,300 worth
with a pawn broker for salo, and when
arrested said ho had uo money. On bo
ing searched ? 1,000 was found on hia
person. He came to Pittsburgh last
Friday and has Mopped at four difi'ercct
hotels sicca that time.
Postal Exi'ENsb. Tho expense of
the Post Office Department in 18T3
yrere 829,081,000, ' having almost
doubled iu &,tven years. 1 bis is iiiaiuly
owing to tho demand of the people for
mail facilities. In only seven States
does the postal service pay expeoces.
These ujo New Hampshire, Massachu
setts, Ilhodo Island, Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
These States yield a surplus of over 52,
500,000, and all the others create a de
ceit of ?G,000,0U0.
There is so much of beauty uud ar
tistic excellence iu the February number
vt the Aldine, no lover of the fiuo urts
can well at'ord to allow it to rcmaiu a
dosed book. Tho promise held out for
the New Ytar, in the January number,
of a volume of surpassing worth and
taste, is sustained in thU issue. A dozcu
becutiful pictures embeliish its pages,
laore than half of which, are original
American views. Mr. Vr. M. Cary has
a spirited lull page picture of "AuUlopc
Hunting on tho Plhius;" tho -hounds
ia lull pursuit of a herd of deer which
ere ooursing like the wind over the foot
hills at the base ol the Rocky Mountains
Mr John Hows has a series ut Ave pict
ures, which ho drew'last summer in the
lovely region of the famous Juniata
River in this Stato. One ol these ia a
grand and uiussivo whole-page picture
representing The Juniata River Deur
Huntington, Pa., showing, a daep cut
through the rocks on the Pennsylvania
Central Kailroad. Two large compan
ion pieces, full of tho feeling and atmo
fphere of out-of-doara, give the beholder
wild and rugged views cl the inlet and
outlst of Sinking Spring, a river whioh
flows for a mile under the mountains.
Two ether charming sketches, full ol
beautiful water, cloud and foliage effects
arc sketches of ihe river 'Lewistown
Narrows,' snd 'Juniata River near Lew
istown.' No fiuer series of pictures of
American scenery has ever beeu pub
lished. Mr. Johu S. Davis contributes
u characteristic sketch ef the village
ne'er-do-well,' Au Idle Dog' which is
true to iife, as well as beiug graceiul in
peso and composition. Specht has a
nice pioture of Scotch greyhounds, (Qen
tclmen of Leisure,' and 'Cinderella' is
imo of those fairy-like pictures, after Le
jeuno, represents a pretty maiden sitting
by au opeu fire-placo. The other illus
trations are a large and handsomo pict
ure called 'The Old Bible by G. Wag
wullcr, a child reading to her grand
mother; a sweet picture ol a young lady
seated oo the flowery bank ol a stream,
"A girl no more 1 a maiden now," cud
a dashing sketch entitled 'Uudding
Genius.'
The literary contents of this cumber
of the Aldine are choice, varied, and oi
iginal. A poem never before published
called "The Scythe aud the Sylpids" is
Jroru the pen of Richard Adams Locke,
now dead, but who will bo remembered
as tho author of the famous "Moon
Hoai" of years ago. Josepa Watson, a
bhaksperean echoolar, has a readable
paper on "Sir Joshua lteyuolds." H.
Emily Baker contributes some interest
ing "Sketches in Old Newport" Chan
dog Fulton writes entertainingly of
Clo'id Pictures;" Mrs. M. F. Butts has
it pretty poem, or eong called "When
the World gets Green;" Francis Lee
tells a capital storry of Yankee life, un
der the title of "Taking it for Granted;"
Dr. T M CoaQ, late literary editor ol
Ihe Independent, has a valuablo essay on
'Imaginative Friendships;" J H Batty
writes of "Antelope Hunting;" Kev. fc
V. DufSeld has a peusive poem called
"Foot-Prints." Edward Olin Weeks is
represented by an entertaining story, a
Florentine legend, entitled "Miohiel
Betcllo;" Prof. Win. O. Richards has a
jewel ol a poem, "My Doubt;" George
Kingle gives a poem called "Blighted. "
Mario S. Ladd a sketch of "Polly," and
M. Despark writes of "Eliia Greatorex."
The editorial articles are "An Idle Dog;"
'A Juniata Jaunt;" and well-filled de
partments embracing music "Progress
of Instrumental Musio;" Dram "The
Metropolian Stage;" LiUture; aud art
"Brookiyn Art Association." With
this catalogue of tho contents of the
February Aldine, we can safely say no
other American publication ever offered
its readers so many art and literary at
tractions. Subscription price $5, in
cluding cbromos "The East" and "The
West." James Sutten & Co., publishers

Ayer's Cathartic Pills;
For tho relief and

aperient, and aa
excellent purgative,
licing purely vege
table, they contain
no mercury or mino
ral whatever Much
serious sickness and
suffering is prevent
ed bv their timclv
use; and every family should have them on hand
lor their protection and relief, when rcuuired.
Long experience has proved them to be the saf
est, surest, and bc-t of all the I'llli witli winch
the market abounds. By their occasional use,
the blood is purilled, the corruptions of the sys
tem expelled, obstructions removed, and the
whole machinery of life restored to its healthy
activity. Internal organs which become clogged
and sluggish are cleansed by Auer' fills, and
stimulated into action. Thus incipient discaso
is changed into health, the value of which change,
when reckoned on tho vast multitudes who enjoy
it, can hardly be computed. Their sugar coating
makes them pleasant to take, and preserves their
virtues unimpaired for any length of time, so
that they are ever fresh, and perfectly reliable.
Although searching, they are mild, and operato
without distui'Uaucu to tho constitution, or diet, or
istui'Uaucu to tho constitution, oi

tun itirections are given on tho wrapper to
each box, how to use them as a Family l'hysic,
and for the following complaints, which these
Villa rapidly cure:
For Itjrupvpiiii or liKllgeatlon, X.ltl.
ne, Iraniruor and Lota of Appetite, they
should be taken moderately to stimulate the stom
ach, and restore its healthy tone aud action.
For X.tv.r Complaint and its various symp
toms, Jlllloua Headache, Mick Head,
uche, Jauuillce or Ureen SicbneM, Bil
ious Colic and Uilioua Fevers, they should
be judiciously taken for each case, to correct tho
diseased action or remove the obstructions which
cause it.
For Dyaentery or Diarrboea but' one
mild dose is generally required.
For MheumatUm, Gaul, Oravel, Pal.
S itatloa of the Heart, Pain In the
ide, Hack and Loina, they should be contin
uously taken, as required, to change the diseased
action of the system. With such change those
complaints disappear.
For lSropay and Iropalcal Mnelllnjra,
they should be taken in large aud frequent dosed
to produce the effect of a drastic purge.
lorlupprealoii, a large dose should bo
taken, as it produces the desired effect by sym
pathy. as a Dinner fm, take one or two I'illa to
promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels, restores the appetite, and invigorates the
system. Hence it is often advantageous where
no serious derangement exists. One who feels
tolerably well, often rinds that a dose of these
Villi makes him feel decidedfy better, from their
cleansing mid renovating effect on the digestive
apparatus,
