MAJ. VAN CAMP.— On the outside of to
day's STAR will be found a brief sketch ol
Mi>j. Moses Van Camp's early life and con
tentions with the Indians, taken from SIIKR
MAN DAY'S Historical Collections oj Pennsylva
nia. Muses Van Camp and his brother Ja
cobus Van Cainp were lamo.tr in the bonier
wars of the Susquehanna, among the Red
men of the then wild forest We learn that
the father of this family was a Low Dutch
man,probably from the Minisink settlement
on the Delaware, lit the winter of 1838,
then living at Dansville, New York, he sent
a petition to the United States Congress of
a pension, from which the passages that we
publish in this paper are extracted. They
will be read with interest by many, as the
name of Van Camp is familiar to many in
this county, and the doings of that family
are none the less forgotten.

■HTMPHREYS' SPECIFIC
.110 M<EO P A TIH C REMEDIES ,
NO. 502, BROADWAY.
THE GREAT FEATURE
Of (his series o( Domestic Remedies is that
each particular medicioe is a Specific for the
particular disease or class of diseases whose
name it bears, and may be relied upon for
ihe cure of that particular affection. Hence,
persons suffering from a chronic di<eae or
long Handing ailment, in buying a case of
Humphreys' Specifics, obtain the particular
one desired in their case, and thus them
selves make a cure which otherwise would
cost them many dollars, and no small a
mount of time and medical attendance, if,
indeed, it cnuld be obtained at all.
Thus multitudes suffer Irom Dispepsio,
Billious, Cosliveness, Bad Taste, Coated
Tongue, and Debility, which is perfectly
controlled and cured by the
DYSI'EI'SIA SPECIFIC.
There is scarcely a phase or form of this
disease which is not promptly co ltrolled and
ultimately cored by the use of this Specific.
Thousands who have suffered for years with
this''Billions Condition" having purchased
a case of these Specifics have obtained a
perfect cure anc immunity from their old
complaint.
COUGHS, COLDS, AND SORE THROAT
wltiah so freqnenly lead to
• BRONCHITIS AND CONSUMPTION,
are all in their early stage cored by the
COUGH PILLS.
Many cases of long standing Bronchitis and
irritating Coughs have been perfectly cured
by this Specific. But more ! many persons
have a specific liability to colds and take
them from the least exposure. This will be
entirely relieved by the use of (he Cough
Pills, as scores can testify from experience :
So CATARRH is one of our most common
and most troublesome diseases,against which
the Old School Medicines and even Ho
moeopathic prescriptions, are of little use.—
Yet hundreds cf persons have been cured of
not only recent and fresh, but even long
standing and obstinate cases of Catarrh by
the use of this Specific.
One aged lady in Syracuse was thus per
fectly cured of a Catarrh, which had aunyed
her all her life. And a young lady at one of
our first class boarding schools, wtio was so
afflicted with ibis disease as to require more !
than forty handkerchiefs a week, was en
tirely cured in a single week by this Speci
fic. PILES,
bleeding and blind, is one of those common
and obstinate forms of disease which are
so difficult to cure by the ordinary methods,
but which find an entire fundamental cure
in the Piles Specific. True, time is reqnir. |
ed ; but the Specific is pleasant to take, re
quires neither diet nor restraint, and being
lollowed up a perfect cure is the result.—
Hundreds of persons, in purchasing a cure
ol Specifics, have obtained a cure for this
most trying and obstinate form of disease,
which has been worth to thein ten times the
cost of the entire set.
The case contains the best
FEVER AND AGUE SPF.CIEIC
known. A remedy without any deterious
or poisonous substance, which not only
cures the ague, and old, mismanaged agues,
but may be relied upon as a preventive when
persons are residing in a faver and ague
district. It prevents or protects upon the
same principle that vaccination prevents
small pox or belladonno prevents scarlet le
ftover, by pre-occupying the system itli the j
true specific. Hundreds have beeu thus
protracted and cured.
THE OPHTHALMY SPECIFIC
lias proved a most valuable remdy lor Sore
Eyes and Eyelids, and for Weak and Blur
red Sight. One lady in Indians, who had
been a sufferer from sore eyes for many
years, and fortwo years was entirely blind,
was cured perfectly by the Ophthalmy Spe
cific alune.
HEADACHES
to which at) many are subject, find a cura
tive in the case. There is a specific which
relieves at the time ol the attack, and also I
one which corrects the condition ol the sys
tem upon which it depends, and destroys
the disposition to a return.
The Specifics for the various forms of
FEMALE COMPLINTS
have proved invaluable. Old Standing Le
ucorrlxca or Whiles, attended with debility
of exhaustion, and for which other forms of
medicine are of little value, are fully con
trolled and cured by the Female Pills ; while
Ihe specific for Irregularities control almost
every form of Scanty, Painful or Irregular
Menstruation.
DIARRHOEAS & SUMMER COMPLINTS
in adults or children ara controlled like ma
gic by the Diarrhcca Pills, whiie it may be
averred without the possibility ol successful
contradiction that the Dyseritary Pills are the
most perfect specific lor that disease known.
For the various forme of
FEVERS, SCARLET FEVER, MEASLES,
and other diseases of children, the Fever
Pills may be salely and surely relied upon.
These Specifics of Prof. Humphreys, used
for years in his extensive practice,and to the
perfection of which he has devotee the re
sources ol extensive knowledge, experience
and study.
The public may rest assured that during
the lifetime of Dr. H., no one has been or
shall be trusted with the preparation of his
Specifics, and he ofTers the guaranty of his
professional life and reputations that they
shall be just as he represents them.
They have now been before the pub
lic for five years, and have everywhere
won golden opinions from the many thou
sands who have used them.
Simple, (tee from intricacy, technicality,
or danger, they have become the ready re
course and aid of the parent, traveler, nurse,
or invalid, and have become the family
physician and medical adviser of thousands
of families. Nowhere have they be -n tried
without having been approved, and their
highest appreciation is among those who
have known them the longest, and most in
timately.
Every Family will find these Specifics all
(hey have been recommended ; Promt Re
liable, Simple and Efficient ; a Friend [in
need and oilen a Friend indeed.

A MEDICAL REVOLUTION
The World Uuauliuous •
lIOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT;
THE GREAT COUNIER IRRITANT ! !
The virus of disease often makes its way
to the internal organs through the po'rek of
the skin. This penetrating Ointment) melt
ing under the hand as il is rubbed in, is ab
sorbed through (tie same channels, and,
reaching the aeat of iuflamatioii, promptly
and invariably suhdnes it, whe her located
in the kidneys the liver, the lungs, or any
other important organ. It penetrates tlie
surface Itt the interior, through the countless
tubes that communicate with the skin, as
summer rain pas-es into the fevered earth,
diffusing its cool and regenerating influence,
SKIN DISEASES AND GLANDULAR
SWELLINGS.
Every species of exterior irritation is
quickly reduced by the ami inflammatory
action ol this Ointment. Angry Eruptions,
sucti us salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Tetter,
Ringworm, Scald Head, Nettle, Rash, Scab
ies, (or Itcii) .c., die out, to reiurn no more,
under this application. Hospital experi
ence ill all parts of the World ptovea lis
infallibility in diseases of the skin, the mus
cles, ihe joints and the glands.
ULCERS, SORES, AND TUMORS.
The effect o( this untivalled external
remedy upon Scrofula, and other virulent
ulcers and soies, almost maraculous. It
first discharges the poison which produces
suppuration and ptoud flesh, and thus the
cures which its healing properties afterwards
complete are safe as well as permanent.
WOUNDS, BRUISES, BURNS, AND
SCALDS),
In cases of the fracture of the bones,•in
juries caused by steam explosions, Bruises,
Burns, Scalds, Rheumatism, Stiffness of the
Joints, and contraction of Ihe sinews, it is
employed and warmly recommunded by
the faculty. This marvellous remedy lias
been introduced by its inventor in persons
into all the leading Hospitals of Europe,and
no private household should be without It.
UNDEFINABLE TESTIMONY.
The Medical Staff ol the French and Eng
lish Armies in the Crimea offir-ially signed
their approval of HOLLOWAY'S Ointment,
as die most reliable dressing for sabre cats,
siabs, and gun-shot wounds. It is also
used by the surgeons of the Allied Navies.
Both the Ointment ami l'ills should be used
in the Jolloxving cases :
Bunions, Mercurial Eruptions,
Burns, Piles,
Chapped Hands, Rheumatism,
Chilblains, Salt Rheum,
Fistula, Scalds.
Lumbago, Skin Diseases,
Swelled Glands Sprains,
Sore Legs, Stiff Joints,
Sore Breasts, 'J'eiter,

Sore Throats, Veneral Sores,
