    GREAT TROT.— On Tuesday, the 4th inst.,
the great trotting mutch against time, came
off at the course, near Philadelphia. The
be*, waa oi o'thoueaml dollars on each side.
Tho performances were that a pair of hor
ses belonging to Mr. Dav. Connor, of this
p!a:c, could travel fif.een miles in one hour.
Thoy were driven by the owner himself,
and were hitched to a very light vehicle
with four wheels. The first few rounds they
lost time, but gradually got on the increase
and came out at the end ol the 10 miles,
53 seconds before the timo expired. The
average speed was 3 minutes and 36 seconds
per mile, being one of the greatest feats on
record.— Easton Argus.
ry The Railroad Journal states that at
least ten thousand miles of road will be
built in the U. Scales within tho next ten
years. Besides the iron required for the new
structures, a considerable amount will be
needed for relaying worn out tracks and re
pairs. Over 100,000 tons will bo purchased
■annually.
TIGHT BREECHES AND TOBACCO. —The num
ber on the siok list at West Point lust year
caused some investigation to bo made, and
tlio oitrgeou represents the causes to bo the
inordinato quantity oftobaoco used by diem,
and the practice of wearing pantaloons so
tight around the waist as to intorfere with j
digestion and cause many unpleasant symp
toms. lie recommends that tho cadets be
required to take a full inspiration beforo be
ing measured around the waist by their tai
lors !
fV The whole number of bills passed a
the late session of our Slate Legislature, is
555.
iy Baruum has tho skin of Oalphin, stuf
fed, in his museum. Gaiphin's teirs, in re
venge, have skinned the people of tho Uni
ted States and stuffed themselves.
TELEGRAPH raortrs.—The monthly re
ceipts of the Washington and New Orleans
Telegraph Company are estimated to be $lO,
000, when in good working order, and the
e.vpensos about 55.000.
TY PARKER'S WATER WHEEX.. —The Com
mittee of Patents, in Congress, have repor
ted favorably to renewal of Parker's patent
for improvements on water wheels—that is,
the patent to be extended for seven years
more.
ty Miss FENNIMORE COOPER.—A new
book is annonnced, soon to bo published in
London, entiiled "Rural hours in the United
States," by Miss Fennimore Cooper, daugh
ter of tho novelist.
r ty Professor Webster is said to be in
good spirits; he has his meals from Parker's
as usual, and enjoys excellent healthjand ap
petite. He is firmly of the opinion that he
never will be hanged. He reads a good part
his time in the Bible, and takes particular
pains to mark, as he goes along, all passa
ges refering to false witnesses and persecu
tors of innocent men. His family visits him
twice a week.
CI'RE FOR BAD FITS—Not by any pa ,
tent medicine, but by a good suit —not Mich
a suit as a man can get into at court,but such j
n neat, wcll-mado and fashionable suit of i
clothing as every body should wear; just j
such as you can find at A. H. Kllis", if you !
will call and examine his stock of coats, j
pants, vests, and other articles of dress at the ,
lower door of the new Exchange Block near- j
Iv opposite the Court-House, in Bloomsburg
His stock of ready-made clothing is not the
"llopwrk," made up for sixteen cents a day,
but is cut with attention and made up to u ear
and not only to sell.
Mr. Ellis lias also on hand an assormcnt of
cloth, eassimeres, sattinets, and suitable trim
mings; so thut he is prepared to make up
clothing to order at the shortest notice. He
will pay particular attention to cutting out.

They are all oT undoubted medical powers

lief, such as none _ others J>OSSJSS. They
each have been thoroughly tried in a long
successful private practice, and have estab

of the day. In offering them, to the public,
the proprietor is influenced b'y no sinister

they are eminently deserving of public con

upon their merits alone, or appeit! with such

DR. KbELKR S PANACEA, For the re
moval and permanent cure of all diseriae* a
rising from an impure state of the Blood and
habit of the body, viz:
Chronie diseases of the Chest, Pleurisy.
Bronchitis, CatSrrh, etc., iScrnfulsi in all its
forms, Tetter, Scald Head, Cutaneous afleo
tions of the lace dnil extfarflhibs. Chronic
enlargements of theJdlnts White Swelling,
Syphlitic Affections, Constitutional disorders,
arising from debility, Mercurial dud Heredi
tary predispositions, &c.
In every change that is talking place
in the body, it is manifest that it is brought
about by something having a substantive ox
istepce. If we suppose the organs of our
body originally perfefct, (hey must continue
perfect unless changed by the intervention
of something that bears an unhealthy rela
tion to il. In all eases of disease, there must
be the interposition of soma now ingredient,
which by playing its part as a course served
to modify the properties before connected
with the body. It is absurd to talk of spon
taneous disease taking place in organs pre
viously healthy, without the interposition of
some morbific agent, as well might we ex
pect a piece of chalk to transfer itself spon
taneously into Plaster of Paris, without the
aid of Sulphuric Acid. In all disease there
is a prior cause which must be removed,
through the agency of the Blood. For this
purpose there is 110 remedy superior to tho
PANACEA.
ty In the evidence the following is sub
milled to the public:
PHILADELPHIA, June 9th, 1847.
Having been appraised of the nature of
the Panacea, it affords me much pleasure to

dular diseases, to which it is especially a
dapted. To those who are afflicted, and re
quire medicine as an alterative cannot obtain

stale, than is to be found in the Panacea. I
have used it in several instances with deci
ked and signal succes. Yours &c.
