Knoxville Items.*-J. P. Biles, Eiq., writes us
as follows:
Fatal Accidest.— Saturday morning, 2flth ult,
near this village, William Herbst, of Leesport, Berks,
was thrown from his horse, and so seriously
hurt that he lived but a few- days. Herbst had nearly
lost the use of boe arm from a gunshot wound receiv
ed in battle, sod this doobtless caused him to be
thrown. He was baying cattle. The body wag tak
en to Berks county.
Almost a.Fire.—Between 4 and s 6 o'clock of the
morning pf the 3d inst«i a fire was discovered in the
rear of the wood buildings opposite J. Dearm'an'e
store, in this village. It was soon extinguished, and
enough discovered to show thafit was the work of ant
incendiary.' Combustibles had been heaped In the
attic and set on fire.
Mrs.-Sarah M. Etz, P. M. at Tioga, has opened
a Nows Office at the Post Office in that village, for
the sale of the New York leading dally and weekly
papers and Monthly Magazines. 'New Boeks And
Sheet Music ordered_at publishers prices. As she is
the widow of a brave and patriotic soldier who feU
in the service, we hope the people will give her a lib
eral patronage.
A perfect watch is the American Watch, which
the reader will find by consulting our advertising col
umns, is offered for sale by Thomas Johnson, 28 Ifake,

both of movement and case, and varying in prices
from $20.80 to $400.00, complete and a warrantee giv
en of perfect time for five years. JSJr. Johnson in
forms us that the best ev ; dence of ttye universal pop
ularity of these watches, affer .being before the public
for ten. years, is that since the Ist of January, 1865,
he has sold over $20,000 worth of theth. We predict;
with present prospects,,that onr Yankee nation will,
before ten years more roll 'round, become, completely
Americanized in-th'e matter of American Watches.—

The Monument Question.
Mb. Cobb; from the beginning of the discussion
of the Monumental Question in the Agitator, I have taken
a deep interest in the same; and being anxious that such
discussion may lead to a good result, 1 will add a few sug
gestions to what has already been said on the subject.'
lam highly in favor of a general effort In the county,
and deem such union indispensably necessary to accom
plish the desired object— to erect a monument to the fallen
heroes of this county, adequate to, and worthy of the sac*
rlfiee. Monuments costing $3OO would be but a poor offer
ing of tribute to the dead, and would In future only be re
garded as monuments of narrowmindedness and ingratitude.
And ejren should we place such monuments in all the three
cornered lota of tbo cemeteries of the county, it would on
ly prove our shortcomings in this age to do justice to the
deceased, while a united effort might raise a monument
worthy of the cause.
Relative to the location of the Monument to be erected,
I would uot bo very particular, and fully approve of the
plan to submit the earn© to competition among the different
cqptral villages of the county ; but would In that case hope
that such a spirit of liberality should prompt the citizens
of Wellsboro', the county seat, in aiding this laud&lde ob
ject, that tho award would be in favor of Wellsboro’, as I
do not know of a more favorable site than tbe Public Green
in Wellsboro’. The plan, and materials for construct) Dg
such a monument are matters of greater difficulty than lo
cality. While itl should be of imposing appearance It will
‘be necessary to keep economy in view, as well as the prob
able amount Of means obtainable for the object.
The plan proposed by your correspondent from “The
Hills,” does not strike me os acceptable, the size being too
great, and tbe place for inscribing tho names, on the shaft,
very insufficient for the purpose. To obviate this difficulty
I would propose to erect the Monument on & base with ter
races of sandstone, the superstructure of two storys, octag
onal in form; the lower story to be ten feet high and about
15 feet in diameter; upper story 8 feet high and 10 feet in
diameter. On each of the eight comers of each story I
would place two mitred iron pilasters, or half columns,
cast with flanges to receive marble slabs to form-the uutsidr
of the Monument—the inside to be built of rough masonry
—with a winding staircase leading to tbe second story. The
first story cornice to be surmounted wltha neat Iron railing
to serve as a balcony. The mar bio slabs forming the skin
of the Monument will servo as tablets upon which to grave
the names of the slain, each township having its separate
column. * Surmounting tho second story I would place, on
a proper base / a pyramidal shaft of altitude sufficient to give
symmetry to the whole. This might be of hewn, white
sandstone.. •
i >•’ i
This plan, in details and execution, may need znnch mod
ification. I have bad no opportunity to consult with expe
rienced persons as to probable cost of the marble and iron,
and am not able to give an estimate of the cost of construc
tion after this plan. I may, possibly, be very wild in my
propositions; bat fully convinced that such a Monument
would prove tbe pride of a grateful people and an adorn
ment to any locality, I have written what 1 have written.

;red digestion from un
ay ..i, .-, filth and filthy habits,
the depressing vices, and, above all, by the vene
real infection. WTiatever bo its origin, itis hered
itary 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.'* The diseases it originates take variooe
names, according to the organs it attacks. In the
lungs, Scrofula produces tubercles, and finally
Consumption; in the glands, swellings which sup
purate and become ulcerous sores; in the stomach
and bowels, derangements which produce indi
gestion, dyspepsia, and liver complaints; on the
skin, eruptive and cutaneous affectiqns. These,
all having the same origin, require the same rem
edy, viz., purification and invigoration of file
blood. Purify the blood, and these dangerous dis
tempers leave you. With feeble, foul, or corrupted
blood, you cannot have health; with that “life of
the flesh” healthy, you cannot have scrofulous
disease.
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla
is compounded from the most effectual antidotes
that medical science has discovered for this afflict
ing distemper, and for the cure of the disorders it
entails. That it is far superior to any other
remedy yet devised, is known by ail who hare
given itatrial. That it does combine virtues truly
extraordinary in their effect upon this class of
complaints, is indisputably proven by the great
multitude of publicly known and remarkable cures
it has made of the following diseases: King's
Evil, or Glandular Swellings, Tumors, Erup
tions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, Erysipelas,
Bose or St Anthony’s Eire, Salt Rheum, Scald
Head, Coughs from tuberculous deposits in
the lungs, White Swellings, Debility, Dropsy,
Neuralgia, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis
and Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female Weaknesses, and, indeed, the whole series
of complaints that arise from impurity of the blood.
Minute reports of individual cases may be found
in Ayer’s American Almanac, which is furnished
to the druggists for gratuitous distribution, wherein
may be learned the directions for its use, and some
of the remarkable cures which it has made when
all other remedies had failed to afford relief. Those
cases are purposely taken from all sections of the
country, in order that every reader may have ac
cess to some one who can speak to him of its bene
fits from personal experience. Scrofula depresses
the vital energies, and thus leaves its victims far
more subject to disease and its fatal results than
are healthy constitutions. Hence it tends to shorten,
and does greatly shorten, the average duration of
human life. . The vast importance of these con
siderations has led us to spend years in perfecting
a remedy which is adequate to its cure. This vro
now offer to the public under the name of Aran’s
Sarsaparilla, although it is composed of ingre
dients, some of wliich exceed the best of Sorwt.
parilla in alterative .power. By its aid you may
protect yourself from the suffering and danger of
these Purge out the foul corruptions
that rot and fester in the blood, purge out the
causes of disease, and vigorous health will follow.
By its peculiar virtues this remedy stimulates the
vital functions, and thus expels the distempers
which lurk within the system or burst out on any
part of it.
We know the public hare been deceived by
many compounds of Sarsaparilla, that promised
much and did nothing; but they will neither be
deceived nor disappointed in tins. Its virtues have
been proven by abundant trial, and there remains
ho question of its surpassing excellence for_the
cure of the afflicting diseases it is intended to
reach. Although under the same name, it is a
very different medicine from any other which has
been before the people, and is far more effectual
than any other which has ever been available to
them.
