Some years since a Revolutionary Pensioner
named Mauhart died In Van Etten, Chemung County.
His wife soon married again, thus losing her claim to
the Pension. A Mr. James Van Etten formerly a
prominent citizen of that town devised a plan to secure
the pension by getting Mrs. French to swear that she
remained unmarried. Van Etten took the larger share
of tho money for the reward of his pexjury and vil

Potter—Cowan, of the Warren J/at7, was one of
the Sensitorial Conferees from Warren county. Here
is says of his visit to Coudersport: •
-i*Coudersport, situated on the Allegheny, nine miles
from its source, is a beautiful village. It is cosily
nestled among the hills, built compactly and with more
than ordinary taste. Everything around It bears the
marks of a public spirited refinement and good order.
A largo and elegant Court House stands nearly in the
middle of the village in the steeple of which is a town
clock in sight of nearly every house or place of busi
ness. Xo taverns are licensed in the County, and
though we wore there in the crowd of Court week, we
didn’t see or hear of a aingle fight or a man drunk,
which is praise enough for any place. This, we take
it is somewhat owing to the fact that the Sons of Tem
perance are in good working organization there.—
They have a beautiful and well furnished Hall which
was very kindly opened for the use of our conference

main paper of the place, a fearless, high-toned, zeal
ous Republican-paper. The Democrat, published by
C. U. Cotter, formerly of this place, is its opponent,
and like the party it supports, is in a rather dilapida
ted condition.
On the invitation of Mr. Chase, the qoill drivers in
attendance had a social sit-down together—a very
'pleasant tea-party. Hugh Young, of the Tioga Agi
tator; C. G. Williams of tho Wellsboro Democrat ; L.
Rogers and W. A. Nichols of the McKean Citizen; T.

Discovered by a celebrated physician more than twenty

constantly appreciating in public favor, until ita use and its
use and its reputation are alike universal; and it is now well
known and cherished by nil (and their “name is legion”) who
have been restored to health by its u.-e as the Great Remedy
for all the diseases which it professes to cure.
Sir James Clarke, physician to Queen Victoria, has given
it as bis opinion that
CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.
.The whole history of this medicine fully confirms the opin
ion of that eminent num. Thousands can testify, and have
testified, thatwben all other remedies had failed, this had
completely’owed; that when the sufferer had w?II nigh des
paired, this hid afforded immediate relief; that when the
physician had pronounced the disease Incurable, tins bos re
moved it entirely.
The virtues of this Balsam are alike applicable to cure a
slight coldflor a Confirmed Consumption, and its power ns a
safe, certain, speedy, pleasant and effectual remedy cannot be
equalled.

is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the blood, by which
this fluid becomes vitiated, weak and poor. Being in the cir
culation it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in
disease on any part of it. No organ is tree from its attacks,
nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous
taint is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
orderrd or unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits,
the depressing vices, and, above all,by the venereal infection.
Whatever be its origan. It is hereditary in the constitution,
descending “from parents to children unto the third and
fourth generation;" indeed, it seems to bo the rod of Him
who says, “I will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their
children.”
articles
Itfl effects commence by deposition from the blood of cor
rnpt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and in
ternal organs, is termed tubercles; in the glands, swellings;
and on the surface, eruptions or sores. Tina foul corruption
which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of hie. so
that scrofulous constitutions not only suffer from scrofulous
complaints, bat they have'far 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
deatruclive'diseases of the liver, kidneys, bruin, ami. indeed,
of all the orgifns, arise from or are aggravated by the same
cause.
One quarter of nil onr people nre scrofulous; their persons
are Invaded by this lurking inlection, and their health Is un
dermined by It. To cleanse it from the system we must ren
ovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and invigorate it
by healthy food and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in
AYER’S
Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,
the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our
times cun devise for this everywhere prevailing and fatal
malady. It is combined Irom the most active remedies that
hare been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder
from the blood, and the rescue of the system from its de
structive consequences. Hence it should becmployed for the
cure of not only scrofula, Unit nbo those other affections
which arise from it, such as Eruptive and Skin Diseases. St.

Complaints arising from vitiated or impure Blood. The pop

for Scrofula is degeneration of the blood. Thu particular
purpose and virtue of this Sarsaparilla is to purify and re
