    Knowing whom to Kick. —The late Col.
McClung, of Mississippi, once got into a
dispute in the office of the Premiss House, at'
Vicksburg, with a rowdy, when, to end the
matter without further delay, he look the
rowdy by the “nape of the neck,’’ led him to
the door, and kicked him into the street.
The kickee picked himself up, walked away,
and here the matter ended. Some weeks
afterwards McClung was in New Orleans,
and"when walking up St. Charles street, saw
the fellow.he had kicked out of the Preniiss
House kicking a third party out of a drinking
saloon, McClung walked up to his olti
acquaintance, once the kickee but now the
the kickor, after scanning him closely,
said : “Look here, ray fine fellow, are you
not the man I kicked out of the Prentiss
House the other day V’ “Softly, softly, Colo
nel,” replied the rowdy, taking McClung by
the arm “don’t meniion it—l’rn the man—
but—but—you and I know whom to kick.
A snob is that man or woman who are
always pretending before the world to be
something belter—especially richer or more
fashionable—ihan they are. It is one who
thinks his own position in life contemptible,
and is always yearning and striving to force
himself into one above, without the education
or characteristics which belong to it; one
who looks down upon, despises and overrides
his inferiors, or even equals of his own
standing, and is ever ready to worship, fawn
upon and flatter a rich or a tilled man, not
because be ds a good man, a wise man or a
Christian man, but because he has the luck
to be rich or consequential.— Thackeray.

#3jf TO THE PUBLIC. —As there are many Gift Book
Storrs advertised throughout the country, M. EVANS deems
it jnst to himself add his duty to the public—inasmuch as he
originated the Gift Book business—to state, as evidence of
the instability of such concerns, that they conceal their real
names from the public, and arc advertising their business tin
ker assumed ones. Mr. E. is aware that these various con
cerns published as Gift Book Stores, are calculated to bring
the bu'tncss established by himself into disrepute. He asks
of the public a cmrect judgment in regard to his Gift Book
Enterprise, foi the honor, integrity, and success of which he
refers to all the prominent publishers in the United States.

cape of Good Hope have long used this article os a
remedy in a variety of diseases. From them the
medicine was borrowed by the English and Dutch
physicians residing there and by their recommend*
alion it was soon employed in Europe. In process
of time this medicine has come into general use,
and is highly spoken of by the best medical writers.
Physicians recommend it mostly for complaints of
the urinary organs, such as gravel, a morbid irrita
tion of the bladder and urethra, retention of urine,
also incontinence of urine from want of tone in the
urinary organs. It cools the unnatural heat and
relieves pain; and in many cases of long standing
it has been effectual when other valuable medicines
had failed to produce an effect. The active princi
ple of this medicine is a volatile oil which is mostly
lost by the old process oi boiling. Hence it requirts
great care and skilful management to prepare this
medicine properly.

The HO WARD ASSOC! ATION of Philadelphia
in view ol the awful destruction of human life and
health, caused by Sexual diseases, and the deceptions
which are practiced upon the unfortunate victims of
such diseases by Quacks, have directed their Con*

Charles O. Etz of Tioga
Village would respectiully call the attention of tbe
public to the following advertisement. “Man wan’s
but little here below nor wants that little lung” is
an old saying and perhaps true to a certain extents
But it seems to me that in this time of general
suspension and panic, everything is tending to a
reversion of lime-honored sayings, and everybody
wants a little more still. The farmers (and they
really ought to have as much as anybody, for they
are to our country what a main spring is to a watch,)
wants a lilllc more for their wheat, buckwheat,rye,
corn, oats, 'potatoes, &c., than the purchaser feels
able and willing to pay. The merchant wants a
little more for his Flour, Pork, Salt, Dry Goods,
Boots Sc Shoes, Hats Sc Caps, Hardware, Crockery
and ten thousand little things he has to sell than
the farmer thinks he ought to pay.
At this present time it seems to be conceded by
all that the cash value of good wheat is $1 per
bushel; buckwheat, 2 to 2-6; corn 3-6 to 4-6;
oats, 2 to 2-6; butler, 14 to 1G cents. Now to
equalize the mailer and make it satisfactory on both
sides, I want and will agree la take from every
farmer of Tioga county, all the wheat I can get
for tbe next 60 days at 9 and 10 shillings per bubh
cl according to quality; buckwheat a*. 2-6 to 3;
corn 5 to 5-6: oats 2-9 to 3 shilling's ; butler 16 to
19 cents.
Will sell yon in exchange:

“On the 26th of February nil the members of the committee
met to witness the Safes and books and papers, a (placedto
them) and were perfectly satisfied that all was right. The
day following, the burning took place, under the superintend
ence of the Committee. After a fair and impartial burning
for five hours, the Safe of Messrs Evans & Watson was first
opened, the Safe being on fire inside, amf tbe contents par
tially consumed, while the contents in the Safe of Messrs
Farrels & Herring were In good condition, and no fire Inside.”

Only Makers in this State of Herring's Patent Champion Safes,
The attempt made by other parties to bolster np the repu
tation of a Safe which has failed so signally in accidental
fires in Philadelphia, (Banstead Place,) by taking one out of
an agent's store, (H. A. Lantz,) made dottbte thickness, (differ
ent from those they Bell) to “burn np” one of Herring’s,(half
as thick) has met with its true reward.! Herring’s Safe could
not be burnt, proving conclusively that tbe only reliable
Safe now made is “Herring's” Of which over 15,000 axe now
in actual use. and moro than 200 have bees tried by fire

Report of the Committee appointed to superintend
the Burning of the Iron Sdfesf'at Readings Feb.
27,1857. -
“The undersigned, members of jibe committee, do
respectfully report, that we saw'the two Sales origi
nally agreed upon by Farrels & Herring-and Evans
Sc Watson, placed side by side in a furnace, viz:
The Safe in use by the Paymaster of the Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company, in bis office
at Reading, manufactured by Farrels & Herring,
and the safe in- use by H. A. Lantz, in his store,
manufactured by Evans & Watson,and pulin books
and papers precisely alike. . L
The fire was started at 8J o’clock, A. M., and
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords
dry oak and half chestnut lop iwpod were entirely
consumed, the whole under the Superintendence of
tlic subscribers, members of tjiCj Committee. The
Safes were then cooled off with jwaler, after which
they were opened and the books! and papers taken
out by the Committee and sentf to H. A. Lanlz’s
store for public examination, after they were first
examined and marked by the \ Committee. The
books and papers taken from thcjSafc manufactured
by Evans Sc Watson were but slightly affected by
the intense heat, while those taken from the Safe
manufactured by Farrels, &. Herring, were incur
judgment, damaged fully fifteen perxent more than
those taken from Evans Sc Walsbn’s Safe.
We believe the above to have been a fair and im
partial trial of the respective qualities of both Safes.
