Wo are indebted to Oliver Ditson A Co., No. 277,
Washington St. Boston for ahandsome copy of ‘‘Rich
ardson’s New Method for tho Piano Forte.” This is,
as it purports to be, an improvement upon all other
instruction books in adaptation, classification, progres
sion and facility of comprehension. It is founded up.
on a new and original plan, and is illustrated by a se
ries of plates showing the position of tho hands and
fingers. It also contains tho rudiments of Harmony
and Thorough Bass, and it is, taken altogether the
best elementary work for the Piano ever published in
this country. The fingering is on the European plan,
but for the benefit of those who wish to improve, an
edition has been, printed with the American fingering.
Wo regret that wo cannot announce the price of the
work, but we presume it would be sent by mail free of
postage for $3, although it is well worth $5.

Potter—The Journal of October 20th contains the
Premium List of tho County Fair, by which it appears
that over SSO were distributed to lucky competitors.
John Pect, a veteran pioneer of Pcttcr coun
ty died recently at his residence near Coudersport.*—
The Journal prints a long biography of the deceased
but docs not state when he died. Ho was born April
4,1772. He emigrated from New Jersey to Potter
County in 1811, and was among the first settlers in
that county. He encountered all the hardships of pi
oneer Ufe-with unflinching fortitude. He was temper
ate, xipright and determined. He was eccentric. He
preached the Gospel of Jesus Christ as he understood
it, for twenty years before any regularly employed
minister was known in tho county. He feared God
and tried to live the religion he preached to others.—
He did not believe in the utility of schools and news
papers. He believed the 'first made boys and girls
lar.y, and the last promulgated folly and sin. He des
pised politics and Ho never held but ono
office and seldom voted. He leaves behind him nine
children who are among the most respected and res
pectable people of the county. His wife survives him.
The Journal acknowledges the receipt of
twenty-two potatoes and eight'pounds of honey from
a suhsexiber! It must be prosperous times over there,
neighbor Chase.
A fellow from Potter County writes ua the
following conundrum: “Why was Mrs. Leslie, of
whom Chase of tho Journal speaks in his “Wedding
Tour” as having saved her child, like the creditors of
the late Nigger Bumper? Because she had cawjht
Acr son (Cotter’s son) by the “short hair,” The au
thor of the above has gone to Shippcn or Pike’s Peak.
He cannot survive.
We Lave frequently noticed the remarkable
gifts of Eva, the child-poet of Potter county. We
publish from the JcmnmJ the following linos, which
show her love of and truth to nature:
LINES,
OS RECEIVING A WHITE POSD-LILY FROM MASSACHU
SETTS, IS A FETTER.
Dear token from the Pilgrim’s land! —
With deeper sense than outward sight
'I gaze upon thy petals white.
What purple morns watched over thee,
What summer moonlights round thee fell,
What soft winds kissed thee, —who can tell?
Once, where the sunset’s crimson clouds
Were mirrored in the waters bright.
Thy petals trembled in the light;—
Now where our dark, green woods close round,
Thou liest in the sunshine, dead—
Thy fragrance lost, thy beauty fled.
And yet I stand dream crowned with flowers,
Whoso odors through ray fancy drift; —
For love hath glorified-its gift!
0, Faith that fadoth not with years !
0, Friendship folded, pearly white,
Eeyond the reach of change or blight;—
Sweet blooms of memory, floating on
The gol deu waters of the heart, —
Your fragrance never shall depart! Eva.
Bradford — A Beau Killed. —A parly of four ex
perienced 'hunters started from the town of Wells,
Bradford county, Pa., on Thursday afternoon, in search
of game. They had roamed the woods but a short
time, when their eyes were enlivened by the glimpse
of a largo black bear, which had beon prowlingaroond
the neighborhood for a week or two, doing consider
able miachief. As they hud two or three trusty dogs
along, they started them in pursuit, and soon had the
satisfaction of seeing old “Bruin” treed. Two rifles
were immediately liveled at him, both shots taking ef
fect, causing th© enraged animal to descend from his
dangerous location to the foot of the tree. Here,
however be was met by his canine tormentors, and a‘
tussle ensued, ia which the dogs came off second best,
having received several ugly scratches. At this junc
ture another dose of cold lead was administered with
fatal effect, and the hunters triumphantly carried their
“bar” home, which was found to weigh two hundred
pounds before dressing. The carcass was brought to
this village yesterday, aud disposed of from the wag
on.— Elmira. Preta.

—The Arrjns learns from a reliable source that
a destructive fire occurred in Alba, on the night of the
18th iust., which resulted in the destruction of the
Plow shop and Foundry as I. &. A. M. Wilson & Co.,
the Carriage shop of N. M. & J. S. Reynolds & Co.,
and a Blacksmith shop owned by Andrus Merritt,—
The fire originated in the Plow shop which was dis
covered to be on fire about 2 o’clock a. m. The Plow
shop standing adjacent to the other buildings men
tioned, with a strong breeze, rendered any attempt
that might be made to save them, fruitless. Attention
was next directed to the dwelling house and barn of I.’
Wilson, which were in great danger of being burned,
but by the greatest exertions on the part of alien
gaged in keeping off the flames, they were saved,—
Wilson & Co’s loss estimated at $l,BOO, Reynolds &
Co/s loss $2,000, Merritt’s $lOO.
There was an insurance of $6OO on Wilson & Co;’s
The fire ,was undoubtedly the work of an incendiary,
as there bae been no fire in the building from which
the fire originated for several months.

These Bitters, oa all classes of our fellow citizen®, includ
ing Members of Congress, Lawyers, Physicians. Clergymen,
Planters, Farmers and others testify, are the only safe, cer
tain and sovereign specific for the immediate relief and per
manent cure of the many cruel complaints which in some
phase or other of Dyspepsia afflict our race.
These Bitters were discovered by Dr. Gkop.or I). Grfen,
and in their formula differ entirely from that of any other
preparation of medicine. Containing no alcohol—no'miner
al—no poison—no noxious drug,—in their nature tonic, not
stimulating,—retaining their virtues in any clime; they are
a ‘-combination and a form indeed” of Medicine which knows
no rival in cxtei minuting disease and restoring the system
to its pristine vigor and health. No matter of how long
standing, or however induced or chronic in its character the
disease may be—no matter that it has baffled the - kill of the
physician, and resisted the efforts of J/edicine, a single trla
of these Bitters will satisfy the sufferer that his disease sil
amenable to the proper remedy.
In testimony of the many cures effected hy this Remedy
reference is had to the written certificates from distinguished
individuals known all over the land.
From among the many letters wo are constantly receiving
we take the following:—
-Gentlemen :—I have used the Oxygenated Bitters In my

Debility or Derangement of the Digestive Organs.

IN VIEW of the fact that every member of the human
family is more or Ips® subjected to some complaint, be
sides innumerable otjier conditions in which, by the
assistance of a little knowledge or exercise of common sense,
they may be able so to regulate their habits of diet, and
with tho assistance of a good tonic, secure permanent health.
In order to accomplish this desired object the true course to
pursue is certainly that which will produce a natural state
of things at the least hazard of vital strength and life; for
this end Dr, Hostetter has introduced to this country a prep
aration bearing his name, which at this day is not a new
medicine, hut one that hos been tried for years, giving satis
faction to all who have used it. The Bitters operate power
fully upyu tho stomach, bowels and liver, restoring them to
u healthy and vigorous action, and thus by tho simple pro
cess of streugthcuiug nature, enable the bystem to triumph
over disease.
articl
For tho cure of Dyspnpsla. Indigestion, Nausea, Flatulency,
Loss of Appetite,.or any Dillioui Complaints, arising from a
niofbifl Inaction of The Sumach or Bowels, producing Cramps,
Dysentery, Colic, Cholera Morbus, ic., these Bitters have not
an equal.
Duinhooa, Dysentery or Flux, fo generally contracted by
new settler.*, ami caused principally by the cangc of water
and diet, will be sboedily regulated by a brief use of this
preparation. Dyspepsia, a dfseuso which Is probably more
prevalent w hen taken in all its various forms, than any other,
the cause ol which may always be attributed to derange*
ment* of tho digestive organs, can bo cured without fall by
using lIOSTETTEK'B STOMACH BITTERS, as per directions
gn tho bottle. For this disease every physician will recom
mend Bitters of some kind, then why not use an article to
bo infallible? Every country have their Bitters as a prevent
ative of disease and strengthening of the system in general,
and among them all there is not to ho found a healthier peo
ple than the Germans, from whom this preparation emana
ted, based upon scientific experiments which have tended to
advance the destiny of this great preparation in the medical
scale of science.
NG
Ffveb and Ague.—-This trying and provoking disease, which
fastecs its relentless grasp on the body of man, reducing him
to a mere shadow in a short space ut time, ami rendering
him physically and mentally useless, can be defeated and
driven from the body by the use of HOSTETTER’S RE
NOWNED BITTERS. Further, any of tho above stated dis
ted diseases cannot be contracted when exposed to any ordi»
nary conditions producing them, if the Bitters are used as
per directions. And n*- it neither creates nausea, nor offends
tho palatt, and rendering unnecessary any change of died or
interruption to usual pursuits, but promotes sound sleep and
healthy digestion, the complaint m thus removed as speedily
as Is consistent with the production of a thorough and per
manent cure.
s.
Fob Prrsoxe in- Advanced Years who are suffering from an
enfeebled constitution and infirm body, these Bitters are in
valuable as a rontorativo of strength and vigor, and needs
only to be tried to be appreciated- And to a mother while
nvrsibg, these Bitters nro indispensable, especially where'
tho uiothei'a nourishment is inadequate to tho demands of
the dilld, consequently her strength must yield, and here it
is where a good tonic, such as Hostetler's Stomach Bitters, is
needed to impart temporary strength and vigor to tho sys
tem. Ladies should by all means try this remedy for all ca
ses of debility, and before so doing, ask your physician who,
if he io acquainted with the virtue of the Bitters', will recom
mend their use in all cases of weakness.
CAUTION , —We caution the public against using any
of the many imitations or counterfeits, but ask for Ilusm
teb’s Celebrate!* Stomach Bitters, and see that each bottle
has the words “Dr. J. Hostetler's Stomach Bitters” blown
on the side of the bottle, alid stamped on the metallic cap
covering the Cork, and observe that our autograph signature
is on tho label.

SCROFULA, OR KING’S EVIt,
a constitutional disea,***, a corruption of the blood. l»y »hii h
thi* fluid becomes vitiated, treat and poor. Being in the Cir
culation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out»r»
disease on any part of it. No orpin i» tree from it# attack*,
nor is there one which it may not destroy. The .*• r duluva
taint fa ratiowdy caused by mercurial disease, low living.dis
ordered or unhealthy foodj impure air, tilth and filthy habits,
the depressing vices, and, above all.hy the venereal infection.
Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-UitnttuD,
descending “from jmreats to children unto the third and
fourth gcueratioa;” indeed. it seems to ho the ru.l of Hint
who says. *»I will visit th» iniquities of the fathers upon their
children.”
Its effects commence by deposition from the Hood of .>. r
mpt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liter, and in
ternal organs, i» termed tubercles; In the glands. stu-lUbg-ii
and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul corruption
which genders iu the blood, depresses the energies ol Uto, m>
that scrofulous constitutions not only from icrofuh-m
complaint?, but they have Tar less power to withstand th«
attacks of other diseases: consequently, vast numbers perish
by disorders which, although not scrofulous id 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 contumihation; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidney*. brain, unit indeed,
of all the organs, arise from or arc aggravaud by the sumo
cause.
One quarter of all our people are srrafulon*; their persons
are invaded by this lurking infection, and thoir health is un
dermined by it. To cleanse it from the system we imwt ren
ovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and invigorate tc
by he.illhv lood and exercise. Sut Ii a medicine ne .-apply in

the moat effectual remedy which tlio medical ?kill of our
times can devise for-this everywhere prevailing and fatal
malady. It is combined from the most active remedies that
hate been discovered for the expurga.ionof this foul disorder
from the blood, and the rescue of the system from it? de
structive consequence*. Hence it .should hecmplojcd for tho
cure of not only scrofula, llmt aNo those other aHivtum*

Complaints allying from vitiated or impure Blood. Th« pop

for Scrofula is degeneration of the Mood. The particular
