■ BScKean.—Tha Citizen of this week Is the first
number of tbe sixth volume and comes to with a.neat
new head and otherwise greatly improved in appear
ance. The local and ■ miscellaneous department is
hereafter to be under the direction of W. A. Nichols,
Esq. As a take-off upon the rope walking mania we
chronicle the following: 1
-Challenge to M. Blondin bt the “Local”
op the Cltizen.—Having read in every newspaper
much about the astonishing feats of Blondin, we hereby
make the following challenge: A single telegraph
wire shall be extended from the American to the Can
ada shore without a single guy, directly over the cat
aract of Niagara Palis. The “Local” of this paper
wearing a pair of cow hide boots and dressed in tbe
costume of a female dutch cook, will proceed to the
middle of the wire, with a common clay pipe as a bal
ancing pole, driving before him a hog and cow, and
carrying on his back a cooking stove, a coop of chick
ens, a bed and bedding, a keg of lager beer, a barber’s
chair and various cooking utensils. He will then an
load himself, and immediately go to bed. After a
snooze of 15 minutes, he will rise, dress himself, take
a glass of beer, milk tbe cow, kill the hog and dress
it, cook fresh pork for breakfast, after which he will
eat a wolf’s meal. He will then throw one hundred
and thirty summer-sauUs, sucking an egg while in the
air at each evolution, alighting the last and 131st time
on the tip of the cow’s born, and while in this position
will take the chicken-coop and after having taken the
chickens out one at a time and wrung their necks con
secutively will balance the coop on the tip end of his
nose, balance the cooking stove on his right hand
thumb, balance the bed-stead on his left hand thumb,
at the same time finishing the beer and making a
speech in Butch to the admiring crowds on either
shore. After which—after the manner of Levi North’s
celebrated one-horse act —the “Local” will perform the
one-cow act. The foreman of this paper will then
come out on the wire, blindfolded and shackled, walk
ing on his hands. Then there will be a representation
of Keenan and Morrissey’s prize fight, in which the
“.Local” and the Foreman will exchange sundry
knocks and kicks and black eyes. The last scene will
be both parties standing on their heads, and will in
this predicament, play a rub of twenty one games of
old sledgo for the treats of all hands. The whole to
conclude with a representation of some of the loving
scenes in Romeo and Juliet.
Wm. K. King Esq., the Republican nominee
for Commissioner has withdrawn his name and the Re
publican Committee have named the 21st inst., as the
time for the Convention to nominate another man.
A. M. Benton has been nominated by the
pro-Slavory Democracy of McKean for Representative.
Personally Mr. Benton is a good citizen, but politi
cally he is a believer in the Border-Ruffian stripe of
Locofocoism. Wo hope he will be defeated.
Clinton. —There is trouble in the Opposition ranks
in this county. Two Conventions have been held and
two candidates' nominated for Assembly. William
Fearon, Jr., Esq., member from that county last win
ter, is the nominee of one convention, and B. Rush
Petrikin of the other. The Lock Haven Wafeftmun
supports the latter, and the Muncy Luminary takes
strong ground in favor of the former. No man in the
last Legislature was held ip higher estimation than
Mr. Fearon, and we cannot understand why he should
be made a yearling of, in violptionoTlhe-tlma-honored
usages of the party.
Steuben and Chemung*. —John M. Botts of
Virginia, was in Elmira, September 5. He stopped at
Haight’s Hotel. The Press says he was serenaded by
Wiener's Comet Band, which bad the effect of- bring
ing him out in a short but happy extempore speech,
in which he took occasion to disclaim that he had any
longings for the Presidency, nor would he seek or re
fuse a nomination. lie also strongly urged a union
of the Opposition forces in 1860, without which ho
thought they must be again defeated. He was warmly
applauded throughout.
Mons. James Ells, a boy twelve years old,
son ot George Ells, Esq., of this village, did some tre
mendous rope.walking yesterday afternoon. A rope
about one inch in diameter was suspended upon posts
in the river, opposite Judge North's residence, seventy
feet apart, and the young amateur mounted it to the
amazement of an intensely excited crowd and com
menced his perilous journey. He passed over the
feerful chasm twice, thrice, and when attempting to
perform the feat again, and had reached midway be
tween the posts his balaaee pole lost its equilibrium,
and Mons. Ells was “dumped" into the raging waters
of the Chemung. He came oat of the clement in a
moment, mounted the rope, and repeatedly crossed it
again, performing various antics, until the “crowd"
were satisfied he could perform ail announced on the
“bills." We understand that this young rival of Blon
din-aud De Lave will do some great feats of agility on
the rope in more fearful places as soon as the “wind”
is raised to pay expenses. Pass around the hat,—Ad
vertiser.

THE TIOGA COU
SCROFULA, OR KINO’S RVIL,
is a MDBtitutionaldisease, acorruption of the blood, hr which,
this fluid becomes vitiated, weak and poor. Being in the cir
culation it pervades the whole body, and may bunt out In
disease on any part of It. No organ la iree from its attacks,
nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrolulous
taint Is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
orderrd or unhealthy food, impure air,filth andfllthy habits,
the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection,
whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the constitution,
descending “from parents to children unto the third and
fourth generation;” indeed, it seems to be the rod of Him
who says, “I will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their
children.”
Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of cor
rupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and in
ternal organs, ia termed tubercles; in the glands, swellings;
and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul corruption
which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so
that scrofulous constitutions not only suffer from scrofulous
complaints, but they have ’for less power to withstand the
attacks of other diseases; consequently, vast numbers perish
by disorders which. Although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the system. Most of
the consumption which decimates the human family has its
origin directly in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and, indeed,
of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the game
cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous; their persons
are Invaded by this lurking infection, and their health is un
dermined by It. To cleanse it from the system we most ren
ovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and invigorate it
by healthy food and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in
AVER’S I
Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla.
the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our
times cau devise for this everywhere prevailing and fatal
malady. It is combined from the most active'remedies that
have been discovered for tbe expurgation of this foul disorder
from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its de
structive consequences. Hence It should be employed for the
cure of not only scrofula, Ibut also those other affections
which arise from It, such ns Eruptive and Skin Diseases, St.
Anthony’s Fire, Rose, or Erysipelas, Pimples, Pustules,
Blotches, Bhilna and Boils, Tumors, Tetter and Salt Rheum
Scald Head, Ringworm, Rheumatism, Syphilitic and Mercu
rial Diseases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Debility, and indeed Ml
Complaints arising from vitiated or impure Blood. The pop
ular belief in ••imfuritt of lat blood” is founded in truth,
for Scrofula ia degeneration of the blood. The particular
purpose and virtue of this Sarsaparilla is to purify and re
generate this vitAl fluid, without which sound health is im
possible in contaminated constitutions.
AYER’S CATHARTIC PIUS.
FOR ALL THE PURPOSES CF A FAMILY PHYSIC,
are so composed that disease within the range of their action
can rarely withstand or evade them. Their penetrating
properties search, and cleanse, and invigorate every portion
of the hunmu organism, correcting its diseased action, and
restoring its healthy vitalities. As a consequence of these
properties, the invalid who is bowed down with pain or phys
ical debility is astonished to find his health or energy restored
by a remedy at once so simple and inviting.
Not only do they cure the every-day complaints of every
body, but also many formidable and dangerous diseases. The
agent below named is pleased to furnish gratis my American
Almuurc, containing certificates of their cures and directions
for their use in thelollowiugcompliuutb: Costiveaess, Heart
burn, Headache arising from disordered Stomach, Nausea,
Indigestion, Pain in the Morbid Inaction of the Bowels,
Flatulency, Loss of Appetite Jaundice, and other kindred
complaints, arising from a low state of the body or obstruc
tion of its functions.
AVER’S CHERRY PECTORAE.
FOR THE RAPID CURE OP
Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness, Croup,
Bronchitis, Incipient Consumption, and for
the relief of Consumptive •Patients in ad
vanced stages of the disease.
So wide is tbe field of usefulness and so numerous are the
cases of its cures, that almost every section of country
abounds in persons publicly known, who have been restored
from alarming and even desperate diseases of the lungs by
its use. 'When once tried, its superiority over every other
mediciuo of Its kind is too apparent to escape observation,
and where its virtues are known, the public no longer hesi*
tale what antidote to employ for the distressing and danger
ous affections of the pulmonary organs that are incident to
our climate. While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this has gained
Irieuds by every trial, conferred benefits on the afflicted they
can ne\er forget, and produced cure too numerous and too
remarkable to be forgotten.

Tbb Great Feature
- The Great Feature
Of this series of Domestic Remedies is that each par*
ticolar medicine is aSPECiFic for the particular disease
or class of diseases whoso name it bears, and may he
relied upon for the cure of that particular affection.
Hence, persons suffering from & chronic disease or
long-standing ailment, in buying a case of Hum
phreys* Specific, obtain the particular one desired in
their case, and thus themselves make a cure which
otherwise would coat them many dollars, end no small
amount of time and medical attendance, if, indeed, it
could be obtained at all. {
Thus multitudes suffer from Dyspepsia, Bilious Con
dition, Costivonesi, Bad Taste, Coated Tongue and De
bility, which is perfectly controlled and oared by the
Dyspepsia Specific.
Dtspspsia Specific.
There is scarcely a phase or form of this disease
which is not promptly controlled and 'Ultimately cured
by the use of this Specific. Thousands who have
suffered for years with this. “Bilious condition" haring
purchased a case of these Specifics, have obtained a
perfect cure and immunity from their old complaint.
Cougqs, Colds and Sorb Throats,
Coughs, Colds and Sons Throats,
which so frequently lead to |
Bronchitis and Consumption,
Bronchitis and Consumption.
i *
are all in their early stage secured by the
Cough Pills.
Cough Pills.
Many eases of long standing Bronchitis and irritating
Coughs have been perfectly cored by this specific.
But more! many persons have a specific liability to
colds and take theih from the least exposure. This
will be entirely relieved by the use of Cough Pills, as
scores can testify from experience. So
Catarrh I
Catarrh j
is one of our most common and most troublesome dis
eases, against which the Old School Medicines and
even Uumoepathlo prescriptions, ore of very little use.
Yet hundreds of persons have been cured of not ouly
recent and fresh, buteven long standing and obstinate
cases of Catarrh by tho use of tliis specific.
One aged lady in Syracuse was thus perfectly cored
of a Catarrh, which had annoyed her all her life. And
a young lady at one of our first class boarding schools,
who was so afflicted with this disease as to require
more than forty handkerchiefs a week, was] entirely
cured in a single week by this Specific.
Piles, !
Piles,
bleeding and blind, as one of those common and ob
stinate forma of disease which are so difficult to cure
by the ordinary methods, but which find ,an entire
and fundamental cures in the Piles Specific. True,
time is required; but the Specific is pleasant to take,
requires neither diet nor restraint, and bciug followed
up, a perfect cure is the result. Hundreds of persons,
in purchasing a cose of Specifics, have obtained a cure
for this most trying and obstinate form of disease,
which has been worth to them ten times the cost of
the entire set. Cases of over twenty years’ standing
have been cured with this simple Specific, and_wo be
lieve all may be cured by perseverance.
The case contains the best
Feveb and Ague Specific
Fever and Ague Specific
known. A remedy without any deleterious or poison
ous substante, which not only cures the ague, and old,
mismanaged agues, but may be relied upon as a pre
ventative when persons are residing in a fever and
ague district. It prevents or protects upon the same
principles that vaccination provents small.pox or bella
dona prevents scarlet fever, by pre-occupying the sys
tem with the true Specific. Hundreds have been thus
protected and cured.
The OpHTHALJirJSPEciFic
has proved a most invaluable remedy for Sore Eyes
and Eyelids, and for Weak and Blurred Sight. One
lady in Indiana, who had been a sufferer from sore
oyes for many yenrs r and for two years was eutirely
blind, was cured perfectly by the Ophthalmy Specific
alone.
Headaches,
to which so many aro subject, finds a curative in the
case. There is a specific which relieves at theHme of
the attack, and also one which corrects the condition
of the system upon which it depends, and so destroys
the predisposition to a return.
The Specifics for the various forms of
\ ■ Female Complaints
have proved invaluable. Old long standing Lcocor
rhoca or Whites, attended with debility or exhaustion,
and for which other forms of medicine are of little
value, arc fully controlled and cured by the Female
Pills; while the specific for irregularities control al
most every form of scanty, painful, or irregular men
struation. j
Diarrhceas and Summer Complaints
in adults or children are controlled like magic by the
Dinrrhcra Pills, while it may be averred without the
possibility of successful contradiction,that the Dysen
tery Pills* are the most perfect Specific for that disease
known. : i
For the various forms of
Fevers, Scarlet Fever, Measles,
and other diseases of children, the Fever Pills may
bo safely and surely relied upon.
These Specifics are the prescriptions of Prof. Hum
phreys, used for years in Ms extensive practice, and
to the perfection of which he has devoted the resour
ces of extensive knowledge, experience and study.
The public may rest assured that during the life
time of Dr. 11. no one has been or shall be intrusted
with the preparation of his Specifics, and he offers the
guaranty of bis professional life and reputation that
they shall be just as be represents them. r
They have uow been before tlie public for five years,
and have everywhere won gulden opinionr from the
many thousands who have usedthem.
Simple, free from intricacy, technicality, or danger,
they have become the ready recourse and aid of the
parent, traveler, nurse, or invalid, and have become the
family physician and medical adviser of thousands ol
families. Nowhere have they been tried wilbput hav
ing been approved, and their highest appreciation is
among those who have known them longest, and most
intimately. |
Every family will find these 'Specifics all they have
been recommended: prompt, reliable simple and effi
cient; often a friend in need and a friend indeed.

American gentleman now resident in Sydney, New
South Wales, dated January 12, 1858 :
44 1 bad u tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which

by sailors with a needle and twine.” . ;
44 If Homer could be called up from his murky
