OBITUARY.
Dnnonyi REWORD ONE OF THE Slutvi
voas < I* THE WYOMING MASSACRK. — We clip
from the En /.erne County papers, the fol
lowing tribute to the memory of DKUOKAH
BKOFOI.O. probably the last survivor of the
Wyoming massacre. From the initials, as
well as from its neat, chaste style, we feel
quite certain that it comes from the pen of
that accomplished and christian gentleman.
Caleb E. A* right Esq., of Wilkes-Barre,
who is a most zealous ami earnest cowork
er in tic church of which Mrs. Bedford was
so long an honored member.
DIED. -On the .11 inst.. at the residence
of her son. Dr. Andrew Bedford, in Wav
erly, Luzerne county, Mrs. Deborah Bed
ford, aged 'Ji> vears, 1 month ami 2t> (lavs.
Mrs. Bedford, whose maiden name was
Sutton, was born at North Castle, State of
New York, the £tu of February, 177 J.
When between two and three years of age
shecame with her parents to the Valley of
Wyoming, then in th*' dawn of its settle
ment by the whites. At the time of the
incursion of Bntler nn*l Brandt, very sfrm
after, her father's family were inmates of
Forty Fort, the strongest hold < J the set
tlers. Tt was her chance to I>*> witness, of
the dread scenes of that disaitrou* dev.
when, th*' battle lost, th • stockade was giv
en up to pillage and many *if ibf occupants
to slaughter. The F.uttons, howeycr, shar
ed a better latent the hands of the sa\.i"e
captors, than inanv of their felloWsA I'iiev
were prisoners of war ; but through
some unexplained clpuviiiyr of Butter, tic
tnrv leiwler, wei .- set at lilxTty, and taking
pnßsagcin a railely-eoivtriicted lat, pur
sued their way down the Snsipiftlianna to
Middiet'twn a few mile; below the sit*- of
liar rati >u rg. J {ere the family frmhfri* *1 un
til the withdrawal of the if/\aders t<• their
hoin .-j in the X >rtk permiUoJ their >.*.fe re
turn.
•hi taking u]> tiieir resideuce once more
in the Valley, the Sutton family occupied
a house on the river bank of Wi!"■•*-Barre,
erected on the ground now covi r•*! by tlie
io.insioti of Judge Conynghtwii. Shortly
after they moveil across the river to Kings
ton, and it was at that place in September,
178S, when a girl of 15, the subject of our
sketch, through the in -trnmcntulity of the
pioneer laborers of the I>f. E. ChnTch, lie
cainc the subject, of converting grace. She
at ouoe liecauie a niemiter of the tirst class
formed in. Northern Pennsylvania, was in
due time after taking in full conueetion,
and sustain**! the relation with undeviatang
fidelity through a period of more tliun *SU
years. Perhaps no person in America was
a longer time a member. She was eotem
porarv in membership with John Wesley
(who died in 17111, j and the honored fath
ers who were liis co-laborers in the building
up of that church, which now reflects such
imperishable honors ou their names.
Mrs. Bedford, by family tics, was con
nected with names not soon to be forgot
ten, Sh*' was the graml-dangbter of Dr.
Wm. Hooker Smith, a man noted in this
vicinity, whose foresight outran by half a
century that of thocommnnity in which he
lived, in comprehending tho ultimate value
of anthracite coal. George Untliu, whose
name will Iteeome historic as the represen
tative on canvass of tribes and nations of
men, even now, many of them extinct, was
her nephew. .
But in this region of country, the re
membrane*' of Mrs. Bedford will rest on the
reputation she acquired for earnest zeal
enduring Christian purity. The apartment
in her sun's house, where in many of the
last years of her life passed away, was truly
the sanctuary in which the children of the
church were wont to gather, in order to
hold commune with the heavenly-minded
invalid. At no time did her interest in the
Redeemer's cause and kingdom flag. Xev-
ei- dil a doubt overspread her mind, tuafc i
the crown would l>e to her a vain hope.—
Her long age was infused with the terms
of the sanctuary and the texts of the Bible.
She had a message Of cheer to every absent
saint ; a lesson of encouragement for every
visitor.
The hist twenty-five years of her life were
passed under the hospitable roof of her son.
j Surely, never was filial duty more sacredly
disejnvjeeii. The obligations incurred in
infancy and l>oyliool were amply repaid.—
i Many times a visitor at the mansion, I was
always impressed with a sense uf the sa
enxlnussot the spot— it truly a Chris
tian hoine. 'Torsome years since disease
and waning physical powers had confined
the ancient pilgrim to her room, the fam
ily had hnen aeenstomed tottsseaible there
fur prayers. On Sabbath evening it was
the , turn of Mother Bedford to
lead. Sitting IIJ>HI bed, with elapsed hands
she would pour forth her trembling accents,
tile d with all the fervor aud inspiration of
faith and love. And this was eontinued,
until the long drawn-out thread of life was
spun, and the spirit lose to the mansions
above. (\ E. \V.

" * Cough, Bronchitis, Asthms,
add Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, na- anything won so widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, a* this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaint". Through a loug
aeries of years, and among moat of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their estima
tion, as it has become better known. Its uniform
' character and power to cure the various affections
' or the lungs and throat, have made it known as a re
liable protector against thein. While adapted lu
milder forms of disease and to young children, it u
at the same time the most effectual remedy that caa
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan
gerous affections of the throat ami lungs. As a pro
vision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should
be kept on hand in every family, and indeed us all
j are sometimes subject to colds and coafbs, all
should be provided with this antidote for theni.
I Although settled Consumption is thought in
curable, still great numbers or cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
I and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry Perioral . So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs ami Throat, tlua
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When noth
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pec
toral they subside and disappear.
Slnyer* and Public hpeukert And great pro
| tection {torn it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses.
So generally arc its virtues known that we need
1 not publish the ccrtiflrates of them here, or do muio
I than assure the public that its qualities are Ailly
maintained.

poisons.
As its name implies, it does Care, and does not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bismuth,
Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous substance
whatever, it in nowise.injures any patient. The
number and importance or its cures in the ague dis
tricts, are literally beyond account, and we believe
without a parallel in the history of Ague medicine.
Our pride is gratified by the acknowledgments ws

SILVER PLATED WARE."
D MeKown respectfully announces to the people
H Wyoming County, that he has made a specialty o*
ifEAVY SILVER PLATING, lor years. Heavy
plaiting is much more economical than light. The
more Silver put on the go(i-, the .-heap r it is done
in proportion to the amount of MIKT u.wd. 8 peons

4os piate is called a good plat i > i'i. trade , and
poor as it is, but a small puin... „|| ike goods
made come up to this standard. - Ounce plate "in
platers language means the uumt+r <*f ounces of
silver, to the gross of table spoons. Ab other sur
faces are estimated bv these. For example, des.
sert* are estimated at 3-4 : and tea spoons at 1-2 the
surface of table-spoons. Sixteen ox. plate is 16 oxs.
of fine silver to the gross of table-spoons or dining
forks, 12 or. to the gross of de.-sert spoons or forks
and 8 oz* to the gross of tea-spoons This quality
of plate will cost, on the azerage, twice as much as
4 oz and will have four times the amount ot silver
on it. Thirty-six or* plate will cost about three
times as much as 4 oz , nnd will contain nine times
the amount of silver on it. Thirty-six oz* plate is
the lightest that will allow the engraving on it, of
name or initials, without cutting through unto the
metal beneath. Forty-eight oz plate will cost about
four times as much as 4oz plate, and will contain
12 times the amount of silver. This plate costs
about one half as much as solid silverware of ordi
dinarv weight, and for every day use will be more
durable than light, solid silverware Most ot the
solid silverware is made much too light to be dura
ble in constant use. The terms "double." "treble"
Ac. Ido not use to designate qualities—there being
too much ambiguity in their use .
All goods, made by me, having my name and fig
ures denotiug ihe or, plate, stamped on them, will
be guaranteed full weight of silver on first quality
of metal on them.
I will plate to order, goods of any thickness of
