of a highly combustible nature. We had
the Safe opened after the fire had ceased

manufactured, and as cheap as any estab

Dollard,s Herbaninn Extract, or Lustrous
Hair Tonic, prepared from South American
limbs and roots, the most successful article
ever produced fot preserving the hair from
falling out or changing color, restoring and
preserving it in a healthy and luxuriant
slate. Among other reasons why Dollard's
Hair Culling Saloon maintains its immense
ponularity, is the fact that his tonic is ap
plied to every head of hair cut at his estab
lishment, consequently, it is kept in better
preservation than under any other known ap
plication. It being thus practically tested by
thousands, offers the greatest guaranty of its
efficacy.
Sold wholesale and retail at his old eelab'
lishmeut, 177 Chestnut Street, opposite the
Slate House.
R. Pollard has at last discovered the vie
plus ultra of HAIR DYE: and announces it
for sale, with perfect confidence in its sur
passing every thing of the kind now in use.
It colors the hair either black or brown, as
may be desired, and is used without any in
jury to the hair or skin, either by stain or
otherwise, can be washed off ten minutes
after application, without detracting from
its efficacy. Persons veiling the City are in
vited to give him a call. Letters addressed
to R. Dollard, 177 Clioslnut Street, Philadel
phia, will receive attention.

3d. Because over thirty six millions of
acres of warrants are to issue under the netv

4th. Because there is not land enough to
fill all these in the States and they must

must tall to a mere trifle—ten or twelve cents
an acre.
6tli Because nobody vvanfs land in the

fTIIIE undersigned, having just received the
•*• latest Paris and New York Fashions,
would again beg leave to inform hie numer
ous friends and all the world about Bloome
burg, that he is now better prepared than ev
er to accommodate any one with the neatest,
easiest and best fitting suite of Clothes that
have been turned out lately; and not only
that, but he will also do them up in the best
order, unon the lowest terms.
His shop is at the old tand, (too well
known 10 need further notice) where he may
at all times be found, seated upon the bench
of repentance, steadily drawing out the thread
of allliction, hopeing it may in the end prove
advantageous to him and-hrs customers. He
would also advise his friends to bear in mind
that poor, afflicted tailors must live, or they
can't be expected to work. Therefore, Wheat,
Rye, Corn, Oats, Potatoes, and with all now
