Uhl>.M>l>AY, FEB. 2, ISM).
WE HAVE been requested to give notice
through the STAR, that Dr. P. JOHN will de
liver a lecture before the Young Men's Chris
tian Association, on next Friday evening,
(February 4th) in the Presbyterian Church
of this place. We bespeak for the Doctor
o good turn out.
We learn that some malicious scamp en
tered the Post Office at Williamsporl on last
Sunday night and robbed it of about #1 50.
It is a pitty Uncle Sam didn't catch them in
the act. We also leant that some boys rob
bed the contribution box of the Methodist
Episcopal Church or the same place, but
'did not learn the amount taken from it.
THE WEATHER for the past month has been
more like spring weather than for January ;
w hen we should have been enjoying good
► leighing we were experiencing mud in
abundance—nothing but thaws ami freezes
and rains from the beginning of the month
to the end. Mr. February takes hold i f the
reins rather mild and gently.
MESSRS. Gttoss Jc SI-FIRMAN are busily en
gaged in digging a Wen. on the lot of Mr. j
Strawbridge A. Wilson, nearly opposite our
Office. They have dug some forty feet, but
found no water at that depth They are cap
ital hands at well digging.
TUB M. K. CONFERENCE will meet in W'il
liamsport on the 2d of March next, when
the appointments for the year will be made.
It is hoped by the Press that the hospitality
of the citizens of the place will be shown
to the members, and thus mako their stay
whilst among them, one ol pleasure.
THE TYPOGRAPHIC ADVERTISER —a neat nnd j
handsome paper of specimens—L. JOHNSON j
A Co, Publishers, Philadelphia. This pa- j
per has been published four years with sue- j
cess, lor the benefit of the primers.
THE STREET*.—Many a pedestrian is heard 1
to grumble at the bail condition of our street*
and alleys, while the huge piles of ashes
and dirt, of almost every conceivable quality. I
lound at every turn, prove p'crfect eye-sores, '
not only to strangers but to our own citizens.
SRNsini.f.-It is a fact worthy of remark that j
the ladies are beginning lo discard paper
soled shoes, and are now, the most ol them,
not ashamed to wear shoos that will protect!
their feet from cold and dampness. Some
of them are not ashamed to wear calf-skin. !
Very sensible. Nothing more conduces to
health than substantial "understandings," j
and the ladies are deserving of a word in
their favor having determined to give up the j
lolly ol running almost barefooted.
. FALSE FRIENDS—There is a class ol per
sons in every community, who only make
Iriemls to use them. If they can get noth- 1
ing oul of a man, they do not want his friend
ship. Such people treat their friends like
cigars—they hang on to them, get all the
good of ihein, and then throwingthem away,
spit after them ! But such men will-eventu
ally reap the reward of their ingratitude, as
certain persons in our town can testify.
EFFECT OF HOOPS ON STARCH —Hoops have
taken the starch oul of the petticoats, accor
ding to the Buffalo Express, which states, on
the authority of one interested in the busi
ness, that a starch factory recently put in
that city, with a capital of SBO,OOO, has sus
pended operations, or is doing comparative
ly nothing; and also that another celebrat
ed establishment at Oswego, which has
heretofore paid its ten per cent, dividends,
is also running only at a vdty small rate,and
such is said to be the case with these estab
lishments throughout the country. Skirts
having given place to wood and s'eel stiff,
ness, the demand is now almost entirely
limited to dickies, shirt collars and wrist
bands.
NEW MERCHANDIZE.— Stejihcn H. Aid er, ex-
Sheriff ' has embarked in the mercantile bu
siness, at the "Arcade," formerly occupied
by Mr A. C. Mensch, in this place, with a
good and rather extensive stock of entire
new merchandise which he has just received
Irom the eastern cities, and is prepared to
sell goods at a figure lo suit purchasers. Mr.
MILLER has had considerable experionce in
the mercantile business ( consequently the
public tnay rest assured by calling upon him,
that their wants will be supplied in a man
ner bestowing credit upon hint as well as
other commercial dealers. TheSherifi hav
ing a wide-spread circle of friends and ac
quaintances, we can see no reason why he
should not do a handsome business. He is
honest, frank and upright in all his dealings;
courteous and obliging in his manners, ami
in every way calculated to deal with the
common and the most fastidious.
COURT will commence on Monday, the
7ih of February, instant, in this place. It
will, as usual, bring a large number of peo
ple from the country to town; and we hope
thatj if any of our subscribers happen to bo
amoag the crowd, they will not forget to
give us a call (for we keep open doors) and
leave a little of their spare ■ with the
printer. A friend at our side, a rather ec
centric fellow. just remarked: "I cant see
"how you priiitore live—you have so many
"little accounts scattered all over creation,
"and so hard to collect money now-a-days.
"I have large amounts Standing out, and
"pretty plenty of them, and can't collect
"enough to keep my family." To which
■we replied as follows: "My subscribers
"are all pretty good pay, arid small debts
"are more easily paid than large ones."—
This ho thought must be the eatte. His
countenance seemed to exhibit a wish that
liis accounts were only smaller, instead of
being so largo tlut he couldn't collect them
us he wished. As next week is Court, some
of my patrons will have an opportunity of
barking up what we have said in regard to
their being good pay, &c.

ROXBURY MASS.
Dear Madam—The reputation of the Med- j
ieal discovery, in curing all kind of humors,
is so well establishvd by the unanimous
voice of all wtio have ever used it, that I
need not say any thing on (he subject, as
the moat skilful physicians and the most
careful Druggist in lite country are unani
mous in its prai*e.
11l preserving the Medical Discovery (o 1
your notice, I do it with a full knowledge of
its curative power, in relieving all, and cur
ing most ol those diseases ;o which you are
unfortunately so liable. The most excruct
ating disease to an affectionate mother,
NURSING SORE MOUTH,
Is cured as tl by a miracle; your own tem
per is restored to its natural sweet-ess, and
your babe from short and fretful mips to
calm and sweet slumber*; and the medical
discovery becomes a fountain oI blessing to I
your husband and ho its It old,
lu the advanced stages of
J A N li F R
it extends to the stomach, causing
DYSPE P S I A,
which is nothing bnt canker on the stomach
then to the intestine* and
Kidney*,
cren'ing a sinking, gone leeliitg, and an in
difference even to the cares of your family.
Your stomach is
RAW AND INFLAMED,
your food distresses you, and you can only
take certain kinds, and even of that your
sy-lern does riot get half the nourishment it
contains as the acrtmonotis fluid ot the cank
er eels it up; then your complexion loses its
bloom and beromessallow and greenish, and
your best day is gone. For want of nourish;
ment your sy stem becomes loose and flabby,
and the fibres of your body become* relaxj
ed. Ther. follows a train of disease which
the Medical Discovery is peculiaily adapted
to CURE; Palpitation of the heart, pain in
the side, weakness ol the sniue and small ol
the buck, pant of the hip joint when you re- ;
t'.re, irregularity ol the bowels, and also, thai j
most excruciating of disease, the
VI L F S.
How many thousands ol pnor women are t
suffering trocn this disease and pining away j
a miserable life, and their next door neigh- j
bor does not know the cause, I wish to im- i
press on \ our mind that good old proverb.'
"An ounce of prevention is better than a -
pound of cure.'- In the
Mcriirnl Discovery
yon have both the preventive arid the cure,
with ibis great anil good quality, that '.t will
never nnderuny circumstances, do you any
injury.
No change of diet ever necessary—eat the
best yon can get and enough of it.
Directions for nse.-l-Atlulis one tablespoon- ;
ful per day. Children over ten years dessert ]
spoon (nl. Children from live to eight years, ,
lea spoonful. As no directions cut be applt
cable to all constitutions, take sufficient to i
operate oil the bowels twice a day.
Yours truly,
DONALD KENNEDY. ]
