The Monument Question. >
Ewion AcitatoB — Dtar Sir : lan* deased to see
the recent articles in your paper, on subject of a
iloDDment to the soldiers of onr count’ • who fell on
the battle-field, or In the hospital, anjJ who by the
sacrifice of their lives have saved thei! '.-country, for
ue who survive.. Surely “ The
brave," deserve this testimony at our fa jad t, 'ihot we
appreciate their services and
nemes. **’
The Monument should tinquestionab ,>e one for
the whole county. There ate many rcispi t why the
erection of memorials In townships is u<*de£ Jrable and
sren Impracticable. Most of the toVfns arc poor,
comparatively so; and very few have "ally f uitablo lo
cation for & Monument, other than an .obi’uure, neg
lected grave-yard. - *
How the funds could best be is an open
question. There are two classes of meP 4 ,that occur to
me as suitable to udertake the enterprise*, One is, the
returned officers and soldiers, who would-appeal Irre
sistibly for such an object, to all classes’df loyal citi
zens, The other is the men who did n*»t go to the,
war, and who consequently have not hsd much op
opportunity to show their patriotism, tfcYis far. The
soldiers, have fought the battles, and th> ,'women at
home have worked for the sick and w >tfbded ; but
here is a class, who have "been looking lof an oppor
tunity to do something for their country und if they
neglect this opening, will probably new f ave anoth

The Wellsboro Acadomyi
The Trustees of the Wellsboro Academy are grati
fied-in being able to State to the public that they have
succeeded in organizing a Board of Instruction, and
in nmklng T such arrangements that they can. confix
<i6ntly promise that the school will be a decided suc
cess and will not be exceeded in thoroughness and
range of studies, by any Institution ot the kind in
Northern Pennsylvania, ' ' ' - "
■ The Board of Instruction will consist of tho-fol- -
lowing Teachers: - - -
Kcv. B. B. TAN ALLEN, A. 8., Principal* and
Prof. oT Ancient Languages, Natural Science and
Belles’ Lcttres. .1.
Miss Sarah A. Van Allen, Preceptress and Teach-'
er of Common and Higher English.
Miss Fannie J.- Holland, vies- Preceptress
Teacher of Higher Mathematics and Ancient Lan
guages. . . _ J ' ’• ,•
Mrs. Juliet Sherwood and’Miss H. Wi Tape,
both experienced teachers will be connected withithe
Academy and give instruction in Vocal and Ihstru
mental Music.
Hts. Mary Bbyden will teach Drawingand Paint
ing. both in oil and water colors.
Music will be taught at the residences of the
teachers, or at the houses of the pupils having in.
gtruments and residing in Wellsboro, ‘as may be
desired and each pupil will be left- perfectly fire© to
select her own teacher, the Principal not at all inter
fering in that branch.
Mrs. Bryden will also occupy a studio in her own
house, separate and apart from the Academy build
ings.
. Mr. Van Allen is a graduate of oneof the best and.
most practical of the New York Colleges, is an expe
rienced and successful teacher, a man of great energy

Institution. “* '
Miss Van Allen is a teacher also of Targe experi
ence, has always been successful in her vocation, is

earnestness of character, a graduate of. a first-'clash
Female Seminary, in which she took a high rank as.
a student and has bad some experience in teaching. <-

said to the citizens of Wellsboro. .They ore too well
known here as excellent teachers as well as excellent'
women to need any endorsement by the trustees.. 1 To
those coming from abroad, wo will, however, say 'that
they will justify any confidence that maybwplaced,
in them, both as teachers and Christian ladles. /
All that is said above may also he said of Mrs,
Bry’den. She is a woman of excellent taste, ban hod
experience in teaching and ia devoted to Painting as
an art. She has now a clans at her own house.

I have been constable in this Borough for the last
eighteen months, ond have returned to the Coart of

other place where intoxicating drinks are sold. ‘ And
what is the result ? The Grand Jury found true-bills
against every man reported, and that ia the la«t of it.
And now returned soldiers and other young men, mi
nors imstly, can-go from hotel to grocery, and from
saloon to hotel, and get whiskey and beer, just as they
like, until they get drank and noisy. And then law
and order men blame the constable because he does
not beep the peace. Isitruht? Constable. •

“1 have sold large quantities of your S,vB3APARILLA,

From Rev. Roht. Straiten , Bristol* England*
“ I only do my duty to you and the public, when 1 add
my testimony to that you publish of (he medicinal virtues
ofyour Sarsaparilla. 31 y daughter, aged ten, had an
afinctingr humor m her cars, eyes, and linir for years,
which we were unable to cure until we tried your Sarsa
parilla. She has been well for some mouths.
From Mrs* Jane E. Rice, aiceli-knmni and much-esteemed
lady of Denmstillc, Cape. May CO..N.J.
“ 31 y daughter has suffered for a year past with a scrof

which soon completely cured her.”

Murray $ Co., manufacturers of enamelled papers in
Nashua. N H.
“ I had for several years a very troublesome humor Id
my face, which grew constantly worse until it disfigured
my features and became an intolerable affliction. 1 tried
almost every thing a man could of both advice and medi
cine, but without any relief whatever, until 1 toot jour
Sarsaparilla. It Immediately made my face worse, as
you told me it might for a time: but in a few weeks the
new skin began to form under the blotches, and con
tinued until my face is as smooth as any body’s, and I
am without of the disease that t know of.
1 enjoy perfect health, and without a doubt owe Jt to your
Sarsaparilla.” (

Sarsaparilla you have supplied to the profession as
well as to the people.”
From J. E. Johnston, Esq., Waheman, Ohio.
twelve years, I had the yellow .Erysipelas on my
right arm, during which tuna I tried all .the celebrated

■ Onr only child* about three years of age, waa at
tacked by pimples on his forehead. They rapidly spread
until they formed a loathsome and virulent acre, which
'covered his face, and actually blinded his eyes fbr som«
days. A skilful physician applied nitrate of silver and
other remedies, without any apparent effect. For fifteen
days we guarded hia hands, lest with them he should

any hopfe from, we began giving your SaßSapabjlca,

The sore began to heal when wc had given tho first bottU,
and was well when wo had finished the second. Thechild*a

i 4 ‘ I find your Saksafarilla a more effectual remedy
forthe secondary symptoms of Syphilis and for syphlhtio
disease than any other we possess. The profession are in
debted to you for some oi the best medicines we- have.”
From 'A. J, French-, AT. Z>., an eminent physician of JOait
rencs. Mass,, icho is a prominent member of the legis
lature of Massachusetts.
“ Dlt. Ayer. My dear Sir: I have found your Sarsa
parilla on excellent remedy for Syphilis , both of the
, primary and secondary type, and effectual in sozns cam
that were too obstinate to yield to other remedies. Ido
qot know what wc can employ with more certainty of »ac
cess, where a powerful alterative is required,”
Mr. Chas. S. Van Zieiv, of Hexo £rtmtefc£, JV. J., had
dreadful ulcers on his legs, Caused by the abuse of marenry,
or mercurial disease, which grew more and more aggT»-
rated for years, in spite of every remedy op treatatfttt
that could be applied, until the persevering use of AYXR’s
Sarsaparilla relieved him. Few canes can bo found
more inveterate and distressing than this, and it took
several dozen bottles to cure him.
Loucorrhcea, Whites, Female Weakness,
are generally produced by internal Scrofulous Ulceration.
and are very often cared by the alterative effect of
I Sarsaparilla. Some cases require, however, in aid of
the Sarsaparilla, the skilful application of local rem
edies.
From the well-knoum and widely-celebralcd Zrr. Jacob
Morrill, of Cincinnati.
“ I hare found your Sarsaparilla an excellent altera
tive in diseases of females. Many cases of Irregularity,
Lencorrhoca, Internal Ulceration, and local debility, ant
ing from the scrofulous diathesis, have yielded to it. and
there are few that do not, when its effect is properly aided
by local treatment
A lady, unwilling to allow the trail ication of her name,
writes ■■
“ My daughter and myself have been cored of a very
debilitating Xeucorthma of long standing, by two bottle,
of your Sarsaparilla.’ ’
Hheonatism, Gout, Inver Complaint, Dyspepsia,
