Governor Seymour would not accept the

fjctiD nr a Horse. —We regret to learn
tijtMr- Archibald Walker of Charleston, was
ers/v injured by a kick from a horse, on
ICtdnesdaj of last week. Ho was engaged in
drawing logs an d the wounds were inflicted
while Mr. IV’. was lifting the wbifflotrees from
(te pound. The horse was sharp shod, the toe
tort penetrating the skull about two inches
ttore the right eye inflicting a frightful wound.
He is expected to recover.
Tot Horses Killed and a Man Severely
; VJI iEP—We learn some of the particulars of
m accident which oooured Thursday last, on
lie kg job °f blr. Geo. M. Thompson, near
SJe Island, from a gentleman living in that
teigbborhood. William King was descending
lie mountain with a load of logs, and when
taring a short turn in the road, the lock-chain
irote, precipitating the load upon the horses
ud forcing them over the dug-way where they
tere crashed by the logs. Mr. King was bur
ial down the rocks about twenty feet, injuring
him severely, if not fatally.
Monday was St. Valentine’s day. We ex
pected a few handsome pictures with appropri
ate poetry underneath. But we didn’t get any.
We got a hilly-dvx on gilt edged paper which
readeth as fuiloweth:
‘•Yes; loving Is n painful thrill,
And not to love more painful still;
Hut oh it U the worst of pain
To lore—anti not bo loved again.”
Wellsboro, Feb. 14th 1559.
N. B. Ever since we received the above we
have had our head tied up in a red bandana,
with a plaster of Peleg White’s sticking salve
cn the soles of our feet. Will the fair anony
mous save us a doctor bill, by sending us her
address?
We have received the eighth number of The
Century a weekly newspaper published in New
Vork by Thos. McElrath, 37, Park Row. Single
subscription per annum, in advance $2,50 ; 2
copies $4.
The Century in its elevated dignity of lone,
in its enlarged views, in the elegance and force
of its articles, and in in its typographical ap
pearance fills our ideal of what a newspaper
fibould be. Its editorship is impersonal, but,a
glance at its leaders will convince any man that
Us publisher employs only writers of the high
est ability. The Century has taken a hereto
fore unoccupied field in American journalism.
I: is liberal and national in politics without
'being parlizan. It cannot fail of success.
Tibe ix Knoxville. — About one o’clock on
Sunday morning 13th inst., a fire was disco
rettd in the third story of the dwelling of John
E. White Esq., and in spite of ail efforts to
itreit the flames, the building together with
Us contents was consumed. The first floor was
occupied by Mr. White as a dwelling and Jus
tice’s office. The second story was accupied by
tic Society of Odd Fellows at that Place, and
used as a Hall and, Lodge Koom. Mr.
kite’s loss is estimated at 31000, nearly all
cf his clothing furniture, &c., being consumed.
The loss sustained by the Odd Fellows is esti
mated at 51.200, about 8700 being in. notes,
oust of which will probably be recovered by
renewal. \Ve are sorry to learn that there was
no insurance on the building nor any part of
hs contents. The fire is supposed to have or
iginated from a defective stove pipe,
E:
■- iNTEL Gcter Esq., of Bradford County,
lectured last Thursday evening before the Lite
®7 Association on “The Tendency of the
‘ m “. ’ Owing to the increased interest in the
eviral Meetings at the Methodist Church, the
••tendance was not so large as we could have
•sited. The lecturer confuted the idea that
out young Republic was going to ruin on ac -
C ‘ JUnt °f the isms and intellectual extravagan-
Cj °f out people. These were but the shadows
c _| coming events, the early dawn of a New
showed how absurd it was to base
s ptediction of impending ruin upon an
with Rome whose institutions ours are
f'o’-'clj supposed to resemble. He showed

htutions of the people of Borne from those of

•■'Jization step by step to the present time.
•tendency of the times in his view, pointed
t-J . 'y ,ler uud nobler aims of life than the ac-
of wealth and power. The increased
rahty of opinion, the religious aspects of
■ a ?e, and the advanced slate of our social
e °U proved this. The principles of peace

[We were about to return thanks for a liberal gift of
cake wbicb accompanied the above notice, and which
we had reverently deposited at the base of a statuette
of Ben Franklin; but the philosopher slept; some
ruthless savage, not having the fear of the “devil”
before his eyes, devoured the sweet morsel, thus pre
cipitating us into the pit of starvation and robbing
the “ devil” of his due. With a bit of that cake un
der our pillow a vision of the Mrs. Agitator who is
somewhere in the dim perspective was to have blessed

HO IV TO GET RICH. •
USE the New Machine invented by E. A. Smead,
to operate your common Bosh Churns, it can be
applied to any size. Tou can regulate the stroke to
any required length from two to fourteen inches, by
the adjustable wrist pin in the fly wheel by which mo
tion is imparted to the dash. A child can operate it
with ease. See that the Inventor *# name is on the ma
chine before you purchase. Price, Fiye Dollars.
This machine is the result of three years experi
ments, and bos been pronounced by scientific men
to be perfect. I obtained a glass churn last year in
which I could witness the agitation produced by the
different length stroke, this showed the advantage of
having the adjustable wrist pin, as the stroke must bo
in proportion to the amount of cream or milk to bo
churned. Letters Patent of the United States are
now pending, and all persons are cautioned not to In
fringe. It can only be had of Smead A Tabor, at
Tioga.
Persons wanting the above machines for the
coming season will please order soon, which will ena
ble us to supply at call.

TO the School Directors of Tioga and Potter
Counties: We make the following proposal.
That Lite President of every hoard of Directors
that adopts the use of Brown's Grammar in their
respective districts, where they are not now used,
will if he wishes, be presented with a copy of said
Grammar for the use of said District, by calling at
the Book Store of Smith & Richards on Maiu Si.
Pj-
And wc will agree to furnish a snfHcient number
of said Grammars to supply every School that shall
adopt them, at the Publisher's wholesale price, nd
ding transportation, which is a mere trifle. We
feel confident that the superiority of this Grammar
over all others is such that it will recommend itself
to a)) who will lake pains to ciamme it.

ue to introduce them,” —Cu.vs. E. Cady, Prln. of First Ward
School, Binghamton.
“I am prepared to say without hesitation, that I consider
Ooold Brown’s System, in its present revised and graduated
form, f.ir better calculated to give students a thorough prac
tical knowledge ol the science, than any other with which
I have become familiar, I nminfrodncingjt into my school,

OXYGENATED BITTERS.
For the cure of Dvspepbu orlkwgebtiox, Liver Complaint,
Asthma* Costhencss, Loss of Appetite, Fever n&d Ague,
Heart Burn, Water Brash, Acidity, Scurvy,
Nausea, Headache, Eunai, and General Debility, or any dis
ease having its origin in imjxrfect digestion, |
These Bitters, as all classes of our fellow citizens, includ
ing Members of Ceogrei*. Lawyers, Physicians, Clergymen,
Planters, Farmers and others testify, are the only safe, cer
tain and sovereign specific for the immediate relief and per
manent euro of the many cruel complaints which in some
phase or other of Dyspepsia afflict our race. I
These Bitters were discovered by Dr, George®. Grrex,
and In their formula differ entirely from that of jany other
preparation of medicine. Containing no alcohol—lno miner
al—no poison—no noxious drug,—in their uatureltonic, hot
stimulating.—retaining their virtnos in any dimes they are
a ‘‘combination and a form indeed” of-Medicine which knows
no rival in exterminating disease and restoring Die system
to its pristine vigor ami health. No matter of mow long
standing, or however induced or chronic in its character the
disease may be—no matter that it has baffled the 4kill of the
physician, nod resisted the efforts of Medicine, a iiugle triu
of these Bitters will satisfy the sufferer that hisj disease sit
amenable to the proper remedy. [
In testimony of the many cares effected by thas Remedy
reference is had to the written certificates from distinguished
individuals known all over the-land. |
From among the many letters we are constantly receiving
we take the following:— }
‘•Gextlemex:—l have used the Oxygenated Bitters in,my
practice with decided success in Debility and General Pros
tration, and I confidently recommend it in cases of General
Debility or Derangement of the Digestive Organs
Signed, F. 11. WHITE, M.D.
Mansfield, Tioga Co. Pa., August 2G, 1858.”
This medicine has been used with like success by A. Ho
bard of Richmond; Miss Mary A. Snorerof Covington, and
Miss Catharine Beck of Liberty.
