Depot, at Cattail issa, ive beheld a sight, which lih-iied isr sympathy. A husband with four 6iii!ill chil.iicn, one a babe, ali in a mosi distress ing cm dition, were occupying the room. On entering into cotiversulien the father Informed tH that he buried the mother of the children on the day previous, and that he was on his way to Clearfield county, to hi friend. Wc became al once interested, and made farther iii'juiries into his case. He gave his name ns Baily, and that he formerly worked in Northumberland mid S'ltibury, and moved to Clearfield county. His wile, being in ill health, she wanted to get near tier former home, mar Cattau i.sa, where they moved lo a few mouths, ago. Living outside the town their destitute condition dm tu t become known until a few days previous to her death. The father, we judge, who is one of those help less beings that help to make up au idle woral, with the ragged children then pioceeded to leave Ihe desolate home, the overseers paving his fare to to to bis friends. The children, as we net t hi-iii. were not half clad, and looked am iz inly duly. Silling in the depot, a waiting the iiiiiv.il ol the train, in rushed some live or six la. lies w ho at mice proceeded to divest the little w.iils of the tilth and pat on them clean clothing. The ladies, ive were toll1., Were tioin Cattaivissa, w ho asccitaii.ing their cindiliou determined lo uiiketiii-m happy tiefoie leaving to go among strangers. A cluiue in the appearance of the children was the uoik of about twenty minutes, uud as a kind mother and her daughter were dressing the hahc the iitlle innocent looked into their faces nith a sweet smile, as much as to say "yon have dime nit; au act of friendship w liicli God wi.i bless you for."' As the train stoppe I to tiike on passetiiieis, we oticed the ladies procur ing the little ones coiulorlable seats, bidding them au uileetioiiiite farew. 11. Il was not a farewell of their own loving mother that passed fr earth u few days previous, but il was a farewell of mothers and ladies with clnisti.ui h'-aris who done a charitable, ucl toward those that our Saviour 'united to "come tinlo Him for of such is tin- Kingdom ol Heaven."' The little M-cnc witness. .1 lor a short i line- in that deiot, in performing a hainaue aci is ml remembered ouly by tliein in th ir prayers, but there is a higher re ward awaiting those ladies lor such benevolent acts. Il is true thai scarce one half of the world know how the oilier hill lives, but where the sympathy of woman is enlisted their benevolent acts cause many disi r.-ssed lieatls to cheer up and meet the realities ol this ingged, cold and uv -hat liable world.

The Centennial History of the United States, from the discovery of the American Contiuent to the close of the First Century of American Independence. By James D. McCabe, Author of "A manual or General History," "The Great Republic," Etc., Etc. There lias loujj been a great and universally felt want of a History of tbe United States suitable for general use. This want is now be ing euppl led by The National Publishing Co., of Philadelphia, who have issued a handsome volume, styled "Tbe Centennial History of the United Slates' by James D. McCabe, a well known historical writer. This work will, un doubtedly, take ronk as tbe Standard History of tbe United Slates. It is no dry mass of details no bombastic effort to inflame the national pride, but is a clear, vivid and brilliant run-alive of the events of our history, from the dis covery of the American Continent down to the present Mine. It traces the evidences of that mysterious race, the first occupants of our country, aud gives a most interesting account of the Indians of North America, from the time of the coining of the white men. The voyages of Columbus, the cxploratious of the different nations of Europe and the final occupation and conquest of tbe land by England, are told with graphic power. Every step of our colonial history is traced with patient fidelity, aud the sources of those uo'.ile, and we trust, enduring institutions which baTc made our couutry free aud great, are shown with remarkable clearness. The causes of our great struggle for Iudepeudence are told with a logical force aud ability unsurpassed in any work of the day. Then follows a clear and succinct account of the fonnatiou of the Fed eral Conslituliou ; the establishment of the Uulc n ; the course of affairs until the breaking out of the Second War witb Eugla td ; and a full and comprehensive accouut of that War and its results. The eveuts of our career from the close of that contest to the comtneuceuieut of the. Civil War, follow In their order. The bistuiy of the Civil War is related with intense vigor, and with a strict lidelity to truth. The author pleads the cause of no party or section. He states facts, poi tit out the lessons which they teach, Htid appealing; to neither passiou nor political feeling, trusts to the good sense of his countrymen to sustain bis views. This book contains an Appeudix, giving an account of the approaching Centennial Exhibition. Il ir comprised in one large, handsome octavo volume ol IW5 pages, and contains iVi tine en gravings on steel uud wood of, historical per sonages and scenes. The price is so low that ail can afford lo purchase a copy, und each sub scriber is presented with a superb lithographic engraving of the Ceuteiiutal Exhibition Build ing aud Grounds. Il is sold by subscription ouly, and Ihe publishers waut ageuis in cvtry county. Election Noticb.

Iu other words, to Weakness, eitbei general or local, is the origin of tbe great ma jority of diseases. Rei .force the vital energies, regulate digestion and secretion, by strengthen ing the or guns which perform those all-important functions, and dyspepsia, constipation, kid ney and bladder complaint, uterine difficulties, impure circulation, and tbe thousand and one ailments which are the consequences of debility, are completely, and in most cases permanently, removed. Tbe best, safest nd most agreeable tonic and alterative that can be employed foi this purpose is Ho;. tetter's Stomach Bitters. The experience of twenty-fire years, during which time it has outlived perhaps ten times that numbei of ephemeral preparations which entered into competition with it, has proved it to be uocqualcd as a remedy for all disorders ac aompanied by or proceeding from weakness.
