Stomach or Bowels these terrible Disorders
arising from the Solitary Habits of Youth those
secret and solitary practice more fatal to their

of anticipations, rendering marriage, Ac, impos- j

He who places himself nadcr the care of Dr. J.
may relitrioanly confide in his tionor as a gentle
man, aad coafldentij rely unon his skill asaPbv
sician. ORGANIC WfAKNESS. "" v
Impotency, Ixks of Power, immediately Cured
and full 'igc Restored. -
This Distressing Affection which renders Life
miserable and marriage impossible is the penalty
paid by the victims of improper Indulgences.
Young persons are too apt to commit excesses
from not being aware of the dreadful conseqences
that may ensqe. Now, who that understands
the subject wl pretend to deny that the power
of procreation is lost sooner by those falling into
improper habits than by tbe prudent T Besides
licing deprived the pleasures of healthy offspring,
the most serious and destructive symptoms to both
body aBd mind arise. Tbe system becomes de
ranged, tbe Physical and Mental Functions
Weakened, Loss of Procreatlve Power, Nervous
Irritability, Dyspe, .ia, Palpitation of tbe Heart,
Indigestion, Constitutional Debility, a Wasting
of the Frame, Cough, Consumption. Decay and
Death.
A CURE WARRANTED IN TWO DAY8.
Persons ruined in health by unlearned prcteu
ders who keep them trilling month after month,
taking poisonous and injurious compounds,
should apply Immediately.
DR. JOHNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeous, Lon
don, Graduated from one of tbe most eminent
Col'eg in the United States, and the greater
art of whose ife has been spent in tbe boopitalg
of London, Pris, Philadelphia and elsewhere,
bus etlected some of the most astonishing cures
that were ever known ; many troubled with ring
ing in the head and ears when asleep, great
nervousness, being alarmed at sudden soands,
basbfiiiticss, with frequent blushing, attended
sometimes with derangement of mind, were cured
Immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addresses all those who nave injurrd
themselves by improper indulgence and solitary
habits, which ruin both body and mind, unfitting
tlicm for either business, study, society or mar
riage.
'1 uese are some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by early habits of youth, vir:
Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pains in tbe
Biirkand Head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Mus
cular Power, Palpitation of the Ueart, Dyspepsy,
Nervous Irritability, Deraugement of Diirestive
Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Con
cuinption, Vc.
Mentally The fearful effects on the mind
are much to be dreaded Lost of Memory, Con
fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil
Forcbodimrs, Aversion to Society, Self-Distrust,
Love of Solitude, Timidity, &c, are some of tbe
evils produced.
TnorsAKfts of persons of all ages can now
judge what is tbe cause of their declining health,
loing their vigor, becoming, weak, pale, nervous
and emaciated, having a singular appearance
about the eyes, cough and ymptom of consump
tion. YOUNG MEN
Who have Injured tb mselves by a certain prac
tice indulged in when alone, a babit frequently
learned from evil companions, or at school, the
e licet s of which are nightly felt, even when
asleep, and if not cured, renders marriage impos
sible, and destroys both mind and body, should
upply Immediately.
What pity that a young man, th hope of his
country, the darling of bis parents, should be
anatcbt-4 from all prospects and enjoyments o
life, by tbe consequence of deviating from the
path of nature and indulging ic a certain secret
habit. Such irons MtT before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
reflect that a sound mind and body are the nios1
necessary requisites to promote connubial happi
ness. Indeed without these, tbe journey through
life becomes a weary pilgrimage ; tbe prospect
hourly darkens to tbe view ; the mind becomes
shadowed with despair and tilled with the melan
choly reflection, that tbe happiness of another
become bl&bted with our own.
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and imprudent votary ot
pleasure Cnds that be has imbibed the seeds ol
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
ill-timed sense of shame, or dread of discovery,
deters bim from applying to those who, from
education and respectability, can alone befriend
bim, delaying till tbe constitutional symptoms of
this horrid disease make their appearance, such
as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, noctural
pains in the bead and limbs, dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on tbe shin bones and tnns,
blotches on the bead, face and extremities, pro
gressing with frightful rapidity, till at last the
tlate of tbe mouth or tbe bones of tbe nose fall
in, and tbe victim of this awful disease becomes
a horrid object of cojnmlM ration, till death puts
a period to his- dreadful suffering, by sending
him to 44 that Undiscovered Country from whence
no traveller returns."
It is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands of Ignorant or unskillful PRE
TENDERS, who, by tbe use of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution, and
incapable of curing, keep tbe unhappy sufferer
tMonlb after month taking, tbeir noxious or In
jurious compounds, and Instead of being restored
to a renewal of Life Vigor and Happiness, in des
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh over
bis galling disappointment.
To such, therefore, Dr. Johhbtow pledges him
self to preserve tbe -most Inviolable Secrecy, and
from his extensive practice and observations in
the great Hospitals of Europe, and the first ic
his country, vie: England, Frauce,'Philadepbia
md elsewhere, is enabled to offer the most cr
iu, speedy and effectual remedy in the world
or all diseases of imprudence.

ElHiAK FAWCETT.
If the Autumn winds are all
In a tender sort of swoon,
You can bear the cricket call,
Any Autumn afternoon ;
And should you heed him, soon,
You will hear, it may befall,
Dreamy language wing its way
Throngh his low and dreamy lay :
"By the mist-cmpurpled skies,
By the red leaves lying eear,
I know that Summer dies.
In the lands that held her dear.
And wth bis sparkling spear,
With bis icy-brilliant eyes,
Snowy-bearded Winter speeds
On his whitest of white steeds !
"Oh, the days will shortly be
Wbcu here I must not cheep,
But in some black chink and woe
Of some old fireside creep
To sleep, and wake, and sleep,
By the great log's yellow glee,
Aud slowly find, no doubt,
All the family secrets out.
"From the hearth-fire's viewless flr.il
I can see the spark-cbafffiy,
Ere that ashy film and pale
Furs the embers by-and-by,
How much better taste have I
Thau my relative, the Snail,
Toasting here, as fate appoints,
My extravagnnt hip-joints !
"Hear the clock's quick tick, above
Even the bitter north-wind's roar.
Here old grandma, like a dove,
Coo her surreptitious snore ;
Hear the lovers 'angh and more,
See the lovers making love !
And hear the purr of that
Tawny Sybarite, our cat !
"How I barken, while I bask
To I'jc hum the kettle makes !
In li 13 dull prossuie task
How much merriment be takes!
Ah, for me that kettle makes
All the nightingale I ask,
Except it be, mayhap.
The piue log's bubbling sap !
"Why does Mary grow so pink
If she has not had a kiss ?
It is line you lovers think.
To be making love like this.
Yet a pleasant blaze, I wis,
Aud a cozy little cbiuk,
Bring quite as much content
To the cricket temperament !
"While the golden rods, Iu seas.
Plume tbe laues uud dales with gold.
While a glory smites the trees.
Aud the sumac-leaves burn bold,
In my longing heart I hold
These, and pleluies like to these,
Waiting days more bleak and drcr.r,
That my fireside voice can cheer !
"Oh, for winds of boleinu tune,
Oh, for cLilli-lighted skies !
Since she cannot die too soou,

Captaiu James Thompson was au early
settler in the Buffalo valley, and during
the predatory incursions of savages was
taken and carried into captivity. Several
incorrect publications of his sufferings
have been made, but the following is be
lieved to be correct, tss it was taken down
from his own hps. Sometime previous to .
his capture he had removed his wife aud
children to Tenu's creek for greater securi
ty agaiust tie Indians. Iu March, 1781,
he was going from Lewisburg to his farm
rrep:iratory to moving down the country.
Ou the road bvtween the farms of John
Linn and Col. John Kelly, he was sudden
ly surprised by four Iudians aud compelled
to go along with them. When they -jame
to the hollow, half a mile from Kelly's
house, they discovered a fresh track in the
soft clay. One "of the Indians exclaimed
"Squaw !" Two of them iumediately set
off on a run, aud two remained to guard
Thompson one behind aud one in front.
They soon heard a female scream, when
the Indian behind Thompson struck him
on the back with his guu nnd cried
"Waugh !" (meaning run). They started
off on a run, and on reaching the top of the
hill, saw the other two Indians with a wo
man, when they pushed oil immediately
for aa Indian town on Towanda creek.
They crossed the White Deer and other
mountains north of Buflalo Valley, and
came to the river near the mouth of Ly
coming croek, which they crossed in ca
noes. During the night they tied Thomp
son's arms behind him and fastened the
cord to grubs iu the ground. One night
while encamped on Lycoming creek, not
being lied very securely, he succeeded in
releasing his arms. Two of the Indians
lay on the other side with him. He first
endeavored to get one of their tomahawks,
bat he discovered that they were all lyiug
ou their aims. He then got a stone which
the Indiaus had for crushing corn, and
raised on his kuccs, pieparatory to giving
one of his captors a mortal stroke on the
temple aud securiug a tomahawk. But on
accouut of his head being wrapped in a
blanket he struck too high to effect his ob
ject. The Indian gave a yell, whieh awoke
the others. Thompson now attempted to
run, but the cord with which he was tied
to the grubs prevented him, and as he
stepped back to get around them, one of
the eavages caught him by the collar of his
coat and iu the struggle tore it to the bot
tom. An Indian drew his tomakawk to
strike him ou the head, but desisted, and
spoke to the one Thompson had wounded
1 in his own language; thtn drew his weapon
again, and again desisted ; he once more
spoke to his wounded comrade, and drew
his tomahawk the third time. Thompson
fully expected to receive it this time, and
( was resolved to try and catch it and wret
u irom his band. Hat the Indians Dually
conclude not to kill him, reserving hitn
for a more formal execution. They then
tied a hollow gourd containing shot to his
waist, tilling him that tbis was his death-
warrant. He could easily escaped himself,
but his object was to kill the Indians and
thereby rescue the youni: woman also ; but
he failed in the attempt. They continued
on toward their place of destination. One
day they shot a wild turkey, and takhrnta
entrails rolled them around a stick, with
out any cleaning, roasted in the fire, and
gave them to the prisoners to eat. Etfore
this they had only a few grains of corn Der
day, and this change of diet, says Mr.
Thompson, was quite a delicacy. When
they got to Towanda the Indians became
less careful, thinking he would not attempt
to run away again. In the evening they
made him gather wood for their night fires.
On one occasion 7hen gathering wood he
managed to go further away for each load.
till he got as far as he thought it was pra-
dent to try, and watching an opportunity
when they were uot observing him, darted
off into the woods as fast as he could run,
with twenty-two grains of corn in his pock
ci lor provision 10 travel a lournf-v of
many miles through the wilderness. He
j
said he could have made bis escape on sev-
eral occasions, but he could not think of
leaving Mary Young a prisoner with them
She frequently urged bim to escape, and
not to try to rescue her, as it would onlv
tteieat Doth, bhe was resisned to her Cite
He took a different route at first from that
tovrard home to decieve the Indians in par-
suit. In running he stepped on a rotten
stick which broke and made a noise at the
same time he heard two trees rubbing to-
ethcr with the wind which he took to be
the Iudian8 in pursuit. Being terribly
frightened he ran into a pond and hid him
self in the brush with nothing out but his
head, where he lay till he was satisfied
they were not coming that way. He then
proceeded on his journey, keeping along
the mountains lest he might meet Indians
in the valleys. Oue night he run almost
into an Indian's encampment before seeing
it. He went a little higher up the hill
where he could plainly see the Indians pass
between him and the fire. At another
time bo came very near an encampment,
when an Indian cave a yell, and he sup
posed he was discovered, but he squatted
down immediately, nnd remained quiet iu
the bushes ; in a short time one of the In
dians commenced chopping wood, when
he knew they had not seen him, and care
fully paesed around them. He struck the
West Branch a few rods above where they
had crossed going out, and fonnd one of
the canoes on the bank, the river having
fallen. Being so weak he was unable to
push it into the water, but getting two
round sticks under it for rollers with the
the aid of a hand spike, he succeeded in
launching it. On getting in he discovered
that the other sank, wh4n he went to work
and bailed it out, and lashing the two to
,frtw1 irlth fwn rvAlWpn hi vnv
ag?. He rowed to the middle of the river,
so that if the Indians should pursue him,
and shot, they would not be so likely to hit
him. One of his paddles accidentally
dropped out and floated off, which he re
gretted vcty much ; but on getting into an
eddy it floating up to his canoe, nnd was
recovered. When his craft got opposite to

He was so weak that bo lay in the canoe,
and waved his hat to them on shore,which
attracted their attention. . When taken out
he was so weak that he could not relate
his adventures for several days, having to
be nourished with sweet dj'iIk, till he regain
ed strength sufficient to walk. After being
able to walk he went to his family, and
subsequently removed to Chester county,
where they remained till the close of the
war.
The Iudians took Mary Youug to their
town and fct her to hoeing corn. An old
man, negroe, who was also a prisoner, told
her to dig up the beans that were planted
with the corn, and they would think her
too dumb to learn agriculture, and would
sell her to the Euglish.She took his advice,
and was eventually sold to an English cap
tain, with whom she remained several
vear8. when she was liberated, nnd return
ed home. Having been so much exposed
during her captivity, her constitution was
so shattered that she survived her return
but a short time. On their way out she
was obliged to wade through deep creeks,
aud as the weather was cold her clothes
were often frozen into a solid mass of ice.
She informed Capt. Thompson that two of
the Indians pursued him part of two days.
They regretted his escape very much, as
they intended to have torlured him. The
wouuded Indian left them 6oon after his
escape, and she uever heard of him after
wards, but supposed he died, as he was
badly injured. Capt. Thompson inform
ed some friends that he went with his step
father, who drove a team to Fort Cumber
land at the time of Gen. Braddock's disas
trous campaign. He was then a lad of
only ten years of age. At that time he
saw a woman, a cousin to James Corne
lius, who resided in Buffalo township, that
had been taken prisoner by Indians during
the war. Whan they had taken her a great
distance from home she managed to effect
her escape, and made her way through the
woods alone. The first day she came up
with a mare and colt, aud getting on the
former, she rode all day. When night
came, she turned her out to pasture, and
laid herself down by a log for the night,1
never expecting to see lh mare agiin.
When she awoke in the moruing the marc
and colt stood by her tide. She rode her
all that day, aud turned her out to graze
whilst she slept, but next morning the
faithful animal was there as usual to re
ceive her rider. She rode her each day till
she arrived at the fort. By some this pecu
liar circumstauco would be termed au in
terposition of Divine Providence . to pre
serve the life of the woman. It is also stated
that when she came to the fort the mare
would allow no one but the woman to ap
proach her, but when turned out to graze
that night she made her escape and was
never heard of again.
In 1832 Captain Thompson went to re
side with his son- in-law Boyd Smith in
Jersey Shore, where he dice in 1837, aged
93 years, and was buried in the graveyard
now embraced in the limits of that borough.
He was a One 'old gentleman and is dis
tinctly remembered by a large number of
people. . Early in th spring of 1782, Cap
tain Robertson was ordered to Fort Muncy
with his company for the purpose of bnild-
inor anil rpnoinn-r .;- f-rt;gcMc-u. TL
headquarters were at this station and he
rendered valuable services to the country
by the vigilent watch he kpt u the In
dians. Scouts wtre constantly kept out.
and whenever a body of savages appared
they were pursued immediately and oblignd
to fly.
Iu Octolier of this year, a small body of
savages came to the house of John Martin
in the Chilisquaque setlletnent, near the
residence of Colonel James .Murray, aud
barbarously murdered him and his wife.
They also took from the house two youn
women and a little girl seven years of age
and carried them off. On the 524th of the
same month two men named Lee and Ca
ruthers were sent out as spies from For
Rise. They were waylaid and fired upon,
Lee was killed and Caruthers taken prison
er.
About this time there lived near where
the town of New Berlin now stands.

whilst the males of the family were busy in
the harvest-field of a neighbor, plundered
the house aud carried away two of Kline'
smith's daughters, one sixteen the other
fourteen years old. The party retreated to
a spring north of New lfcrlin where they
halted and not satisfied with the trifling
mischief they had done left their prisoners
and booty in care of the oldest in the parly
whilst the main body proceeded to the har
vest field in the hope of getting some scalps
to carry home as trophies of their success
The oldest man lighted his pipe and sat
down at the foot of a tree keeping an eye
upon bis prisoners. After some time the
rain began to fall when Betsey, the eldest
of the girls, intimated to the sentinel that
she meant to cut down some branches from
the trees and cover a small bag of flour
which the Indians had brought from her
father's house. The Indian, little suspect
ing her real intention, rwrmittcd her to
take one of the axes or tomahawks. She
pretended to be very busily occupied with
her task but contrived to gel behind tbe
old man and buried the axe in his head.
By this time the scalping party, finding
the harvesters too numerous and wc:l
armed for their purposes, were on their re
turn, and had already approached near
enough to hear the groan of the old Indian
as he fell. The girls fled aud the savages

Here ia an item, surely, and we exam
ined the reptile with a good deal of curiosi

inches in cicumference at the thickest part,
with a broad flat head, and was altogether

'That's what I ment to say,' answered
Ball, and he looked so grave and unsmilin
about it that our levity was instantly check-

He wasn't happy unless he was eaten'.
I've known him to get outside of a whole

and to see him reduce a 'soup bone' to a
mere skelteton, of a Sunday, wa3 enough
to break the heart of a man with a family

He's been in au actual state of famine for
nine years, and I believe that if those days,

him for dinner, he'd have been a gauat
