CITY ITEMS. "The Press” on the Pennsylvania Railroad Trains.—Mr. Riley, one of the moat en rterprißing railroad newsmen in the country, takes charge of the trains running on the Erie Railroad. f Our friends along the line of that road, Sunbury, "Williamsport, Dock Haven, Ste., can be supplied '•with The Press on the arrival of th£ first,trains from 'the’city. Superior Stock op Dry Goods. —We invite attention to the advertisement of Messrs. IHood, Bonbrlght, & Co., which will be found under .the head of our Dry Goods Jobbing column to-day. 'These gentlemen, who have long been well known *'to the trade as among the foremost of our Jobbing anerchantß, more especially in the department of do tmestic dry goods, have this season excelled them vselvee in presenting to their patrons and the trade lin general the most complete atook of goods in their •line that they haveever offered, Nor is their stock to staples only. In addition to their supe rior lines of all kinds of sheeting and shirting, mus 'jUns, madder prints, • delaines, ginghams, lawns, ;&c,, of the more fancy styles of ‘dress goods'; of their own importation, is very supe rior and presents great inducements to buyers. In •the department of Men’s "Wear also they offer unu tbur! inducements, and upon the whole present such *an array of foreign and domestic dry goods at their 'Well-filled warerooms, No. 435 Market street, as de iserves and is receiving the -general attention of •■cash buyers. The Ivorytype, as produced by Messrs. TBroftilbent & Co., Nos. 915, 911, anil »ig Cfiestnut ,street, ia beyond doubt the moßt exquisite achieve iinent of art ever given to the world, and for this suc •eess the publio ia more indebted to Mr. Werideroth, ■of thia celebrated, firm, than to any other living man. These pictures have a degree of softness, and :a vividnesß of expression, unequalled by the finest painting on ivory'that we have over examined. The .specimens of thia firm, of this beautiful style of pic tures,-r.re-greatly admired by connoisseurs of art. FijseFamxdy Groceries.—The late C. H. Mattßon’s successors, corner of Arch and Tenth ■streets, dealers in fine family groceries, have now in •store the finest, most varied, and in all respects the most complete stook of groceries to select from in ; this city. Their goods are ail imported, or selected with the strictest regard to.the wants of our first fa milies. Give them a call. Harvey Sickler, Esq., the able editor •of the Tunkhannoclc (Pa.) Democrat, publishes the in his issue of 30th October, 1861: 11 We deem it due to Messrs. J. 0. Ayer & do., and •the public, to make known our experience with the use of their Extract Sarsaparilla in our family, by ntating the circumstances under which it was taken .and its efi'ects. When our only ohiid, now in his third year, was about eight months old, a sore appeared first in small pimples on his forehead over his nose. These ra jpidly increased, and, uniting, formed a loathsome, wirulent sore, which finally spread over his forehead and face, not even excepting his eyelids, which be came so swollen, that his eyes were closed. We ■called a skilful ijiKyaiolan, who administered the •usually prescribed remedies. A solution of nitrate •of silver was •applied until the masß of corruption ■ which covered his entire face turned jet black. The , Bore again and again burst through the scorched and ••'artificial skin formed by this solution. Meanwhile ’.many rer; edies were employed without any appa rent benefit. For fifteen days and nights he, was constantly held by his parents to keep him from tearing open with his hands the corrupt mkss whioh covered his face. “Everything having failed, we were induced by the Yiigh recommendations of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla for ■the cure of Scrofulous disease, to give it a trial. In his treatise on Scrofula, Dr. Ayer directs a mild so lution of lodide of Potash to be used as a wash while taking the Sarsaparilla, and it was faithfully ..applied. “Before one bottle of Sarsaparilla had been given the sore had lost much of its virulence, and com : menced to heal. Another bottle effected an entire • cure, and the general prediction that the child must • •die was contradicted. His eyelashes, which came • out, grew again, and his face is left without a scar, as smooth as anybody’s.* It is unnecessary for me to rotate in how high esteem we hold Ayer’s Saraapa. •lilla.” Hoarseness amd SoEE Throat.— -This •painful result of “ Ca/cAin# CoZd,” or unusual exer tion of the vocal organs, may at any time be removed by allowing one or two of “ Brown’s JBronchial Tro ..eftfis,” or Cough Lozenges, to dissolve slowly in the .mouth. Singers and Public Speakers will find them -of peculiar advantage. Military Officers and Soldiers .should have them , as they can be carried in the pocket and '.taken as occasion requires.

Stokes & Co.’s, Spring Clothing, under the Continental. Spring Clothing, Chestnut street, below Ninth. Spring Clothing—Spring Clothing—Spring Cloth ing. ‘ Amusements of the Mississippi Elbet. —The principal source of amusement to the sailors . and oflicera of the Federal fleet bn the Mississippi, is the getting up of “ Quaker -gunboats,’’ which are ■compounded of inch-plank, flour-barrel smoke-stacks, -and poplar-log cannon. A coat of coal tar is given to these sham iron-clads, and they are then sent, to xun the gauntlet of the Vicksburg batteries. In this city we get up real iron-clads, that look as innocent as though there was not an ounce of iron about them, butthatin reality are impregnable to bullets. We refer to the iron-clad vests made at the Brown- Stone Clothing Hall of Eockhill & Wilson, Nos. 603 .and-606 Chestnut street, above Sixth. {Poverty is Often Despair, —A poor 'fellow weDt to hang himself, but, findinga pot of gold, went merrily home. But he who had hidden the pot went and hung himself. No man should there fore despair, but should at once invest in a new Buit .of Spring garments from the palatial clothing es tablishment of Granyille Stokes, No. 609 Chestnut street.
