nicated with the residence and store-room of
Mr. James S. Harris, which were also rapidly
destroyed. The buildings were large and com
modious, and the loss will •be tteverely felt by
the owners. The whole property 1 was insured
to the amount of hut two thousand dollars, in
the West Branch Insurance Company, at Lock
Haven. The total damage is estimated at about
seven thousand dollars. The fire was probably
the work of an incendiary. On the ISA ult.
some person entered Mr. Harris’s barn-yard
and shot down a pair of valuable oxen, killing
them instantly. It must be a demoniac hatred
which could give rise to such acts as these.

at currency rates, os this detector hints that
they will all be redeemed under the unhinge
ment. Cowan the editor of the Mail is a
poet it would seem. He lately delivered a poem,
as the'last of a coarse of lectures sustained by
the citizens of that place. He is so excessively
modest that he calls it “doggerel” himself, hut
the Ledger says that
“Mr. C. took the audience completely by sur
prise, when he commenced his lecture a la Saxe „■
An original poem by any one in Warren was
undreamed of, consequently the delight of the
hearers was proportionably great. We have no
hesitation in pronouncing Mr. Cowan’s effort
the best of the season. His apostrophe to the
“old tea-kettle” was decidedly beautiful. Mr.
Cowan’s subject was a review of the different
lectures delivered through the winter, and our
only regret is that he has bestowed so much
labor and thought upon a subject which pre
cludes a repetition of the poem at some future
day."
It would seem as if country editors took to
poetry like young ducks to water. A down
east editor concluded a “poms” the other day
with the following beautiful apostrophe:
“Roll on loved Connecticut, long have you ran,
Bringing shad to South Hadley and Freedom to Man !”
We presume James of the Ledger will be
writing poetry next.

AVER’S SARSAPARILLA.
A compound Vemedy, in which we have labored to produce
the most effectual alterative that can be made. It is a con
centrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with
'other substances of still greater alterative power as to afford
'an affective antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla ia reputed
to cure. It Is believed that such a remedy is wanted by
those who suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
which will accomplish their cure mnst r prove of itnmense
service to this largo class of our afflicted fellow-citizens.—
llow completely this compound will do it has been proven
by experiment on many of the worst coses to bo found of the
following complaints:—
_ Scrofula apd Scrofulous Complaints, Eruptions and Erup
tive Diseases, Ulcers, Pimples, Ulotchks, Tumors, Salt Rheum
Scold Head, Syphilis and Syphilitic Affectious, Mercurial
Disease, Dropsy, Neuralgia or Tic Douloureux, Debility,
Dyspepsia ond Indigestion, Erysipelas, Rose or St. Anthony’s
Fire, and indeed the whole class of complaihts arising from
impurity of the blood.
This compound will be found & great promoter of health,
when fakun.in the spring, to expel the foul humors which
fester in the blood at that season of the 3*car. By the timely
expulsion of them many ranklingdisorders are nipped in the
bud. Multitudes can,' by the aid of this remedy, spare them
selves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous
sores, through which the system will stive to rid itself of
corruptions, if not assisted, to do this through the .natural
channels of the body by an alterative medicine. C’eanac
out the vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities burst
ing through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanse
It when you find it is obstructed and sluggish in the veins;
cleanse it whenever It is foul, and your feedings will tell you
when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people en
joy better health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood,—
Keep the blood healthy, and all is well; but with this pabu
lum of life disordered, there can be no lasting health. Soon
er or later something must go wrong, and-the great machi
nery of life is disordered orpvcrthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the reputation, of ac
complishing these ends. But the world has been cgregiously
deceived by preparations of it, partly because the drug alone
has not all the virtue that Is claimed for it, but more be
cause many preparations. pretending to bo concentrated ex
tracts of it, contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla,
or any thing else.
During late years the public have been misled by large
bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla
for on« dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon the
sick, for they not only contain little if any Sarsaparilla, but
often op'curative properties whatever. Hence, bitter and
painful disappointment baa followed the use of the various
extracts of Saraapnrilln which flood the market, until the
name itself Is justly despiaed. and has become synonymous
with imposition ami cheat. Still we. call this compound Sar
saparilla, and intend to supply sneb a remedy as shall rescue
the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. And
we think we have ground for believing it baa virtues which
ore Irresistible'by the ordinary ran of the discloses it is in
tended to cure. In order to secure their complete* eradica
tion from the system, the remedy should bo judiciously to
ken according to directions on the bottle.

HOW TO AXAt&E BUTTER.
TTSE the Now Jfachine invented by B. A. Sinead,
Uj to operate your common Dash Churns, it can bo
applied to any size. You can regulate the stroke to
any required length from two to fourteen inches, by
the adjustable wrist pin iu the fly wheel by which mo
tion Is Imparted to the dash. A child can operate it
with ease. See that the Inventor** name it on thc_ ma
chine before you purchase. - Price, Five Dollars.
This machine is the result of three years experi
ments, and has been pronounced by scientific men
to bfc 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 tiro’
now pending, and all persons are cautioned not to in*
