EMI
PAMPHLETS, to any extent, executed in the most
expeditions manner and eheaperit rates, at the Job
Printing Office of the PATRIOT AND UNION.
Esouou of Tnum.—lt is said that the number
of applicants, in Reading, for the mail Agency on
the Lebanon Valley Branch, is 23 ; in Harrisburg
15; along the line 8.
DULL Evnav-wnuae.—Yesterday was not well
calculated to bring forth many items. The walk
ing was desperate, the atmosphere awful, and every
one appeared to be in a bad hum Or.
Ordinary diarrhoea is now very successfully
treated abroad according to Dr. Markham's method
—five grains of compound ipecachuana powder in
a teaspoonful of gruel after each loose motion.
TIM Carol; atm.—The improvements on the
Union Canal are now completed. The water has
been let in, and we presume it is now in navigable
order. The canal has been put in excellent condi
tion for the business of the season.
Towasgto Eracnons.—The township elections
will take place throughout the county to-day. We
hope our friends in the rural districts, will lend us
a helping hand, by forwarding at the earliest mo
ment the result of the election.
Buz HEADS.—This very cheap and useful mode
of advertising got up in the most showy style, and
printed to order at the shortest notice, and at any
price, according to the work required, at the PA
TRIOT AND "UNION Office.
THE Wing AuraKirs.—We see it stated that the
Wide Awakes have determined to discard their old
uniforms and adopt the "Tartan plaid and long
military coat," introduced by their great chieftain
on his triumphal march from Harrisburg to Wash
ington.
RATHER HARD.—A poor woman was found in
the neighborhood of the depot on Wednesday night,
and having no place to locate, the Chief accompa
nied her to our city hotel, where she remained un
til yesterday morning. After breakfast the Mayor
gave her some money and sent her away rejoicing.
THE ELECTION lirruuss.—We hope the officers
of the various wards will assist us to-day in ob
taining the returns at the earliest moment. If
they will only systematize the thing, and after
the result is known, forward it to the office, we
will feel under many obligations.
TEN grineAsium.—This institution, which re
cently occupied the large room of the Exchange, is
"played out." We are sorry to say it, but such is
the fact. Our people, generally speaking, are not
disposed to patronize any establishment where it
requires labor to obtain enjoyment
A Commumb COUNTY Vicvnt.—A young man
of very genteel appearance was located in the
lock-up, on Wednesday night. He stated to the
Mayor yesterday that he was a resident of Me
chanicsburg, and had come down here on a spree.
'pon promising to keep sober, and leave the city,
the Mayor discharged him.
Naw Courranpurr.—There is now being circu
lated in Philadelphia an altered ten dollar note
purporting to be the true issue of the Real Estate
Bank, Delaware. Vignette, on upper left, man
feeding begs; Penn on lower right; 10 above; 10
on lower left; altered from genuine ones. The
vignette of the genuine tens is a harvesting scene
on lower centre.
Om WEER - LT.—lf you wish to present to your
friend in the country a paper that is worth read
ing, containing the news of the day, the market
reports, foreign and domestic intelligence, and
other matters, too numerous to mention, then call
at the PATRIOT AND UNION Office, and obtain a
copy of our Weekly, put up in wrappers, ready for
waning.
A Crizatt Couseizzlcs.—How heavenly a man
can walk on earth, bear the heaviest burdens, per
form the severest duties, and look all men square
in the face, if he only bears in his breast-a clear
conscience, void of offence toward God or man.—
There is no spring, no spur, no inspiration like
this. To feel that we have omitted no task, no
obligation unfulfilled ; this fills the heart with sat
isfaction, and the soul with strength.
A FREE Baroon.—We honestly and sincerely
believe that if a petition was gotten up, that nine.
tenths of the residents of Market street would sign
it. Not a day passes but what some of them are
called upon for money to pay toll. The taxation
is rather heavy upon them, and many of the resi
dents in that quarter are agitating the Subject of
petitioning the County Commissioners to purchase
the bridge, and make it free to all.
DIP-NET Ftsunia.—The lovers of this delectable
amusement have got their traps all ready, and are
anxiously awaiting the good time coining to east
their nets. All that is needed to start the suckers
from their winter quarters, is a warm rain or two,
and then they (the fishermen, not the suckers) will
be in their glory. It is a style of fishing we never
could see much sport in, to say nothing of the
quality of the fish. However, every one to their
taste, as the old lady remarked when she kissed
the cow.
THE MAYOR'S OFFICE.-A motley crew assem
bled at the Mayor's office yesterday. Some were
in search of employment, and others charged with
inebriation. The first individual brought forth was
a "volunteer"—said he was a resident of Philadel-
Phia; and was homeward bound. In company
was a Young a interesting looking girl, and how
the oil and Water ever amalgated we could not im
agine. Upon promising to leave town, the parties
were discharged. Several other "bummers" were
brought forth and presented to his Honor. The
party being minus of the spoons, they were a ll
discharged, each individual promising to leave
1 01111 instanter. .
Sr. Perigees D.LY.—Next, Sunday is supposed
to be the anniversary of the death of that "gentle
man who came of decent people," and gave the
toads and frogs of green Erin their walking pa
pers. It may not be generally known, by the way,
that the 17th is not the anniversary of St. Pat
rick's birth. He first saw daylight on the sth of
April, A. D., 383, in Scotland. Usher fixes the
date of his decease 17th March, A. D., 493; but
Tillemont altered it to 455, Nenius to 464, and
Moore to 465. St. Patrick was born, according to
Usher and Tillemont, in 372; but Moore, in his
"History of Ireland," states it 373. His birth took
place, the majority of his biographers say, in the
present town of Kilpatrick, at the mouth of the
Clyde, between Dumbarton and Glasgow ; but
Moore insists that he was born near Bonlogne, and
that Nial, of the Nine Hostages, captured him,
carried him to Ireland, and sold him to a person to
tend sheep. He escaped, returned to France, be
came a monk, returned to Ireland, and converted
the natives to Christianity. He used the sham
rock, with its three leaves, to illustrate the Trin
ity. Hence its consecration to St. Patrick. Sun
day will be the anniversary of his death, in 493,
aged 120 years, when he was buried with two
other good people at Down—one of them bearing
the name since given to a land which the land
Shamrock has sontiitoated so many gifted, gallant
and gay citizens. The legend runs
"These three in Down lie in tomb one,
Bridget, Patricus and Columbia pious."
To the sons of Erin, in every clime, the natal
day of Ireland's patron saint calls up the cherished
memories of hdme, as they greet the green Sham
rock, fit emblem of the Emerald Isle Although
"The harp that once through Tara's halls
The soul of music abed,
Now bangs as mute on Tara's walls
As though that soul were dead."
Although the landmarks of her greatness lie
scattered and in ruins,
"Where ivied arch or pillar lone,
Plead haughtily for glories gone,"
yet will her glories still live, in the eloquence of
Curran, the self-sacrificing patriotism of Emmett,
and the glowing numbers of Moore.
Long live the memories of the Harp and Sham
rock, and may the rugged mountains and verdant
plains, the laughing streams and clear blue skies
of the "green isle," ever remain the genuine types
of Irish character.

LLOYD'S MINSTRELS.—It is a long time since our
citizens enjoyed such a rare treat as was offered
them on Wednesday evening at Brant's Hall. We
have no hesitation at all in saying that no troupe
of artists, in the same line of business, ever visited
the interior of the State that gave the same uni
versal satisfaction as Lloyd's. Composed of first
class artists, they do not undertake anything that
is not executed in the most skillful and artistic
manner. Cool White, as master of ceremonies, fills
a difficult position; yet he does it with an ease
and grace that is perfectly fascinating. The fun
department is in the hands of Billy Birch, who is
confessedly the cc plus ultra of darkey comedians,
and who endangers your vest buttons by his mere
looks. Mr. Bides' is a charming vocalist, whose
rendition of the Marseilles we would be willing to
get up to hear at any hour of the night. But it is
not necessary to individualize. Every man in the
company is a star in the profession, and when this
is said, nothing more remains for ns to say than
merely to announce that this is the last night, and
those who fail to go will lose a rare treat.
Mr. IL M. DeWitt, New York, who by the way
has in press another of Capt. Mayne Reid's dash
ing stories of adventure, publishes this week, in a
handsome duodecimo, The Attorney, or the Corres
pondence of John Quod, by J. T. Irving, nephew
of Washington Irving. We recollect the hearty
satisfaction which we felt in perusing the corres
pondence ofJobn Quod, during the Knickerbocker s
palmiest days. Irving's style is picturesque, for
cible and graphic. Its Saxon purity reminds us of
his distinguished uncle, the lamented author and
humorist of Sunnyside. Vigor, dash, humor, and
pathos are mingled in the Attorney, which is his
best work.
Tag Wasruzu.—March came in like a lamb,
but, judging from present appearances, it will go
out like a lion. Cold weather first, then a sprink
ling of snow, then slush in any quantity, has been
our portion. But such is fate, and local reporters
should never complain.
Hamilton Alricks, Esq., was nominated for U.
S. Senator, by Mr. Heck, of Dauphin, in the House
of Representatives, on Tuesday last. His nomi
nation was, by an oversight, omitted in the pro
ceeding, of that day, as published in this paper.
NOTHING Tunnu.—After visiting the various
offices of the aldermen of our city, and finding that
there was nothing there, we concluded to get out
of the cold, and, in the language of Old Abe, say
that nobody's hurt.
CALL ACCEPTED.—We learn that Rev. A. H.
Kremer, of Carlisle, has accepted a call from the
First German Reformed Church, of Lancaster, and
will enter upon the duties of his new charge about
the Ist of April.
THE FAIR.—The ladies have fitted up in good
style the room in the upper part of the Betchange,
and display a choice selection of fancy articles, as
well as numerous edibles. The fa it should be
patronized by all means.
PREPARE.—This day you will be called upon to
exercise tho glorious privilege of an American cit
izen, and, of course, you will vote the Democratic
ticket.
William Carson, nominee for constable in the
Fifth ward, declines being a candidate.

vertisement in another column.
Docoaau.—Jfr. Editor: I sent your account of
the death of a dog, published a day or two since,
to Nehemiah." He put it into his " machine,"
which immediately ground out the following:
The old dog lay in a musing mood,
Watching the passers-by,
And when he thought of the wrongs of his race,
A tear stood in his eye.
Oh! the kicks and the cuffs that he had endured
From the tyrant man—alack
They had altogether broken his heart,
And almost broken his back.
He thought of his yesterday's wearisome run,
Without either meat or drink;
And when he came for his supper at night,
They threw him a .tatideld link!
Now the human practice of "dog eat doy"
His principles made him decline,
And the brave old dog crept hungry to bed,
Without a howl or a whine.
But ingratitude from those he'd served
In his bosom rankled deep,
And the big round tears ran down his face—
'Though tired, he could not sleep.
He remembered that some of his dearest friends
Had died by poison's breath,
And their masters whom they'd served so well,
Left unrevenged their death.
He remembered his noble eldest born,
Crushed under carriage wheel,
While the biped that lashed the furious horse
Was without a heart to feel. •
'Tie true, fast driving the Mayor had banned,
And fined a puppy or two;
But the nuisance unabated remained,
As well the old dog knew.
A fine, to the poor who cannot pay,
Is a grievous punishment ;
But to one who has "more money than brains"
It is not the least restraint.
Then he thought of his pet—his youngest born—
His last and his only one—
And he cried with pain, "Must this dear one, too,
Meet the fate of my eldest son ?"
Then the old dog arose and shook hie mane,
While fiercely gleamed his eye—
" The Mayor and Councils both have failed;
I'll right this wrong or die."
Just then the milkman came rumbling by ;
The dog set up a yell,
For in his excited state, he took
The milkman for a "swell."
Then fiercely out rushed this blooded dog,
Determined to stop the horse;
But his efforts were vain, for the rolling wheel
Soon laid him a ghastly corpse.

PROF. 0. J WOOD'S
RESIORATIVE CORDIAL.
AND
BLOOD RENOVATOR,
Is precisely what its name indicates, for while plea
sant to the taste, it is revivilt ing, exhilarating and
strengthening to the vital powers. It also revivifies,
reinstates and renews the blood in all its original
purity, and thus restores and renders the system invul
nerable to attacks of diseaSe. It is the only prepara
tion ever offered to the world in a popular form so as to
be within the reach of all.
So chemically and skillfully combined as to be the
most powerful tonic, and yet so perfectiy adapted so as
to act in perfect accordance with the laws of nature, and
hence soothe the weakest stomach and tone up the diges
tive organs, and allay all nervous and other irritation.
It is also perfectly exhilarating in its effects, and yet it
is never followed by lassitude or depression of spirits.
It is composed entirely of vegetables, and those
thoroughly combining powerful tonic and soothing pro
perties and consequently can never injure. As a sure
preventive and cure of

Also, Liver Derangements or Torpidity, and Liver
Complaints Diseases of the Ki Ineys, or any general de

It will not only cure the debility following CHILLS
and FEVER, but prevent all attacks arising from mias
matic influences and cure the diseases at once, if already
attacked.
TRAVELERS should have a bottle with them, as it
will infallibly prevent any deleterious consequences fol
lowing upon change of climate and water.
As it prevents costiveness strengthens the digestive
organs, it should be in the hinds of all persons of seden
tary habits_
LADIES not accustomed to much out-door exercise
should always use it.
MOTHERS should use it, for it is a perfect relief ; en
a month or two before the final trial, she will pass the
dreadful period with perfect ease and safety !
There is no mistake shout it! I
THE CORDIAL IS ALL WE CLAIM FOR IT !
MOTHERS TRY IT ! !
And to you we appeal to detect the illness or decline
not or ly of your daughters before it be too late, but also
your sons and husbands, for while the former from false
delicacy, often go down to a premature grave, rather
than let their condition be known in time, the latter are
often so mixed up with the excitement of business, that
if it were not for you, they, too, would travel in the same
downward path until it is too late to arrest their fatal
fall. But the mother is always vigilant, and to you we
confidently appeal ; for we are sure your never-failing
affection will unerringly point you to PROF. WOOD'S
RESTORATIVE CORDIAL AND BLOOD RENOVATOR
as the remedy which should be always on hand in time
of need.

Read what the Press says, after thoroughly testing the
matter, and no one can have a doubt.
Prof. WOOD'S Restorative Cordial tvd Blood Renova
tor is a genuine medicine of real merit, pleasant to the
taste and invigorating to the system. While it purities
the blood and soothes the nervous irritation, it aids the
organs of digestion to perfo-m their functions, and re
sist the assault of disease. It is a chemical compound
BO skillful'y combined that while it exhilarates it does
not provoke the lassitude which usually follows excite
ment. A tonic, composed exclusively of vegetable mat
ter, it is absolutely ceneficiaL and no ill effects can pos
sibly accompany its use It is an infallible and speedy
remedy fo , Loss of Appetite, Feigners, Nervous Debil
ity, Neuralgia. Pa'pitation of the Heart, Falling of the
Womb, and other delicate diseases to which woman is
subject. For Sickness of the Stomach, Bilious Aqacks,
Liver Complaints, Costivenes4, Dyspepsia, Consumption,
and a host of evils flesh is heir to, it is a certain cure.—
St. Louis Morning Herald.
PROF. WOOD'S RESTORATIVE CORDIAL is recorded
In the Classics that Psyche was once sent to a climate
warmer than the West Indies, to procure a wimple of the
beauty GI Prosperine in a box. After some delay the
me. senger returned, and as soon as the lid of the box
was removed, out flew all the ills that flesh is heir to.—
Fortunately, hope was found in the bottom of the box.
Prof. WOOD'S Restorative Cordial revives the recollec
tion of the story, for it ii,vigorats the blood, aids the
organs of digestion, imparts strength to the nervous sys
tem, an: fortifies the citadel of health, so as to bid de
fiance to the assaults of disease. It is a healthy tonic,
composed entirely of vegetable productions, and while
it is exhilarating as pure wine, no injurious results can
possibly follow its use. It is a desideratum in the medi
cal world, and those who are afflicted with loss of appe
tite; Dyspepsia, Consumption, Faintness, Giddiness,
Neauralria, Palpitation of the Heart, &c., will and here
an infallible panacea.—St. Louis Daily Express.
PROF. WOOD'S RESTORATIVE CORDIAL AND BLOOD REN
OVATOR is, without doubt, the best tonic Cordial in the
world. To those who are suffering from General Debili
ty, we would recommend its use, for it is pleasant to the
taste, is strengthening to the system, and will at once
tend to remove all impurities of the blood, and eradicate
all traces of disease. It can be taken by the weakest
stomach, while those in good health will once feel its
exhilarating power. We are confident that after using
one bmlte of this Cordial none will be fora day without
it.—New York Leader.
A Pon; HEALTHY Toxin, and one free from the dele
terious and injurious effects sure to follow those in ordi
nary use, has long been felt to be a desideratum in the
medical world. Such a tonic, and one so skillfully com
bined from the vegetable kingdom as to act in perfect
accordance with the laws of nature, and thus soothe the
weakest stomach, and at the same time allay nervous
and other irritations, and tone up all the organ. of which
the human body is composed, is offered in Prof. WOOD'S
Restorative Cordial and Blood Renovator. Hence, it is
perfectly adapted to old and young. Reader, try it
Thousands have already done so, and the testimony is
universal in its favor.—New York Atlas.
PROF. WOOD'S RESTORATIVE CORDIAL AND BLOOD RES . -
OVATOR, for the cure of General Debility, or Weakness
arising from any cause; also, Dyspepsia, Nervousness,
Night Sweats, Incipient Consumption, Liver Cemplaints,
Biliousness, Loss of Appetite, Female Weakness in all
stages; also to prevent the contraction of disease, is cer
tainly the best and most agreeable Cordial tonic and
Renovator ever offered to the afflicted, andso chemically
combined as to be the most powerful tonic ever known to
medical science. Reader, try it. :ft Will do yqu good.
We have no hesitation in recommending it, since we
know it to be a safe, pleasant and sure remedy for the
diseases enumerated. —New York Dispatch.
117' Before noticing a patent medicine, we have to
be certain that it will prove itself to be all that it is re
commended. And we would say that the Restorative
Cordial and Blood Renovator of Prof. Wood will stand
the test fully, and in fact it is without any doubt the
first article in the market for Purifying the Blood and
strengthening the system. We have no hesitation in
recommending its use to all.—New Yorker.
LOOK TO YOURSELF IN TIMB.—How many, in conse
quence of a false delicacy, suffer from suppressed, pain
fui or obstructed menstruation, and think became they
are young that bye-and-bye nature will work itself clear
from obstructions, and all come right in the end, little
dreaming thatthe seeds of death are already germinating
in the system because the vital energies are impaired;
and the entire animal economy deranged, debilitated
and yet, careless of themselves as they are, if *remedy
were set before them which would restorOall the func
tions of the system, and re-invigorate the body, they
would take it, and thus be in time to save. their lives.—
Parents think of this, and at once give think
