Bobbery— A start la the clothing Business.
I On Thursday night of last week a robbery
j was committed at the Susquehanna House,
in Sunbury, kept by Michael Wilverl, by two
men, who entered one of the windows and
carried of nine coats, a pair of boots and a
lial. The latter was dropped in the aneet
b;fore the thieves succeeded in carrying
away their booty. It appears that two boat
man belonging to a boat lying at the coal
wharves had been at the house in the eve
ning previous to the robbery, and when the
theft was discovered early the next morning,
Mr. Wilvert immediately suspected these
men. Warrants were obtained from Squire
Shindel, and Constable Brostons proceeded to
• he boat to apprehend the supposej offenders
They were not to he fonnd there, but pres
ently made their appearance in a skiff from
ihe other aide of the river. Upon being ques
tioned what they had been doing on the other i
side of the river they replied that they had I
gone serosa to feed their horses; but the dri
ver of the bat assured the constable that the
homes were nm on the other side of the river
the men were arretted upon the additional
suspicion produced by tbeir prevarication.
Subsequently, the officer crossed lite river,
and fnnud the coals concealed under a rock
along the Blue Hill. Ten coats were found,
although but niqe had been stolen. Here
was a mystery that could not be solved, until
it was discovered that one of the nten, who
appeared L.e/ore the Justice in his shin sleeves,
bad fallen Into the river, and the tenth coat
was found to be wet, and in the same moist
condition as bis other clothing. It was his
cont, and he had placed it with the stolen
goods until'it would become dry. This oir
rumsiantial evidence was too strong to be
disregarded, and the two gentlemen who had
made so fine a start in the clothing business
were provided with rooms iu Sheriff Wise's
boarding house. We have not learned tbeir
names, nor thesecliou of country from which

"Anions the signers who remonstrated with !
President Buchanan against llie observance I
of his oatb to 'tee that the laws are faithfully i
executed,' are the names of persons who con
tributed tiz of the twenty-seven rifles given J
at the famous North Church meeting in 1856, I
to 'shoot border-rudftna.' It was on thai me
moriable occasion that Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher .told the New Haven Kansas Com
pany that 'it was a shame to shoot at a man
and not hit him!' These worthies seem to
have changed their tactics of la'.e. Remem
bering that 'those who take the sword' are
apt to 'die by the sword,' they have wisely
dropped the 'border ruffians,' and taken to
'praying for the President'—a safer, and we
trust, a more fructifying occupation."

case, recoveiy is certain, and in a shorter lime
than s permanent cure can lie effected by any
o'hi r treatment, even after the disease has baf
tied the skill of eminent physicians and resist
ed all the means of cure. The medicines are
pleasant without odor, causing r.o sickness
and fiee from mercury or baleain. During 20
years of practice, 1 have rescued from the
jaws of death many thousands, who, in the
last stages of the above mentioned diseases
had hegn given up to die by their physicians,
which warrants me in promising to the afflict
ed, who may placa themselves under my care,
a perfect and moat speedy cure. Secret dis
eases are the greatest enemies to health, as
they are the first cause of Consumption, Scrof
ula and many other diseases, and shoulJ be a
I terror to tbe human family, Aa a permanent
care is scarcely ever effected, a majority of
the caeca falling into the hands of incompe
tent persons, who not only fail to cure the
diseases but ruin the constitution, filling the
system with mercury, which, with the disease,
hastens the sufferei into a rapid consumption.
11 ut should the disease and the treatment ]
not cause death speedilv and the victim mar- 1
lies, the disease i- entailed upon children, who
are born with feeble constitutions, and the
current of life corrupted by a virus which be* j
trays itself in Scrofula, Teller, Ulcers, £rup
tiuns and other affections of Ibe skin, Lyes,
Throat and J.ungs, entailing them to an early
giave.
Self-abuse is another formidable enemy to
health, for nothing else in the dread catalogue
of human diseases causes so destructive s drain
upon Ibo system, drawing iia thousands o!
victims through a few years of suffering down
to an untimely grave, ft destroys the Ner
vous system, rapidly wastes away the energies
of life, causes mental derangement, prevents
the proper development of the system, dis
qualifies for marritge, society, busiueas, and
all earthly happiness, and Jeeves the sufferer
wrecked in body and mind, predisposed to
consumption and a tiain of evila more to be
dreaded than deaih itself. With the fullest
confidence 1 assure the unfortunate violins ol
eeif.abuse that a permanent and speedy cure
can be effected, and with the abandonment of
ruinous practices my patients can be restored
to rubust, vigoious health.
The afflicted are cautioned against the am of
Patent Medicines, for there are eo many inge

the vile compounds of quack doctors, nr the
equally poisonous nostrums v tided as' Patent

of the so called Patent Medicines and find that
