STAR OF THIS NORTH.
WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 21, 1859.
WE would direct attention of our readers
to the new advertisements in 10-day'b STAR.
HON. J S. BLACK, Attorney General of the
Uiitieu States, has our sincere thanks for
Valuable documentary favors.
WE have two school orders for sale cheap.
One Irom the Pittsburgh Commercial Col
lege, ahd the other Irom Bjyant & Stratton's
Commercial School, Philadelphia.
WANTED at this office on subscription :
Wood, coal, potatoes, apples, beef, pork,
thickens, flour, corn, etc. This is trade we
fMtof havo; it is the same as money to us
Those of our patrons in arrears will please
tnake a note.
ON THE out side of the STAR of to day will
be found a communication, from the pen of
the REV. J G. NOBLE, in answer to the ar
ticle written by W. P. Teitsworlh, which
appeared in the Columbia Dtmucrat some
three weeks ago. It is cf cou.-ddcrablc
length, arid quite interesting.
LIOHT STREET HOTEL. —Notice of this pop
ular house will be seen in another column
ot the STAB. This house is oficrod for
upon reasonable terms, and it is a pleasant
and desirable location.
As a caterer to the public appetite, no
one in the country can excel or is inoro
favorably known, than D. L. EVERHART, the
proprietor of the Light Street Hotel. At his
house will be found all the delicacies of the
season.
WE would direct attention of our readers
to the advertisement ill unother column of
Mr. CIIAIILES W. DEAN, Wholesale Dealer,
in Philadelphia, 119 Market Street, North
side, below Second. I lis stock consists of
French and German Baskets, Wood and
Willow Ware, etc. It is not necessary that
we should here re-numerate his articles for
we intend our patrons to read the adver
tisement. We would siate that Mr. DEAN is
a fair and honorable dealer, and has a very
extensive assortment on hand, which can
bo purchased cheap for cash.
SOLOMON NKVIIABII, administrator, offers
for sale, through the columns of tho Star,
the real esluie of Benj. Hayman, deceased,
in Orange township, Columbia county.
The sale will be on Saturday, October 22d,
1859. The farm is in a state of good culti
vation, with necessary buildings, and desir
ably situated. At the same tune there will
be offered for sale six lots adjoining the
above property, all of which will be sold
cheap for cash, or approved paper.
REDUCTION OF FAIIE— We have been re
quested to give notice thiough the columns
of the STAB, that the Directors of tho Catta
wissa, Williamsport and Erie Railroad, de
sign issuing their tickets at half-price to
persons going to and coming from the State
Fair at Philadelphia, on the 27th, 28th, 291h
and 3Ulh i NPI . This is liberal on the part
of the Directors. By this reduction of lare
a person can travel to Philadelphia from
this point (Bloomsbnrg) and back, upon
first-class cars, for 84.50. This is quite a
favorable opportunity to witness the State
Fair, cheap.
WE learn by the papers, ibat the Agricul
tural Annual Fairs of Luzerne, Northum
berland and Lycoming counties, all com
mence on Tuesday, the -till of October next,
to continue ttvo, three and four days, accor
ding to their announcements, liy this ar
rangement, people wishing to attend all the
Fairs, cannot do it, to good advantage The
Columbia county Fair will have a clear
field—all the neighboring Fairs being over
—consequently a large turn out may be ex
pected. We hope there \vill be, at least
The facilities for having a good Fair in this
county are groat.
PROF. THEODORE M'D. PRICE did not per
form his wonderful feat of wire walking in
this place on last Saturday, on account of
the rainy weather. It rained all day, and
of course nobody came to see the feat per
formed. The exhibition lias been postpon
ed till next Saturday, when it will be given,
we trust, without tail. The Professor was
on hand lust Saturday, with wire and pole,
ready to perform the daring and hazardous
feat, but the weather interfering, hence the
postponement. We have no doubt but a
large number of people will be here 011 next
Saturday. Mons. Price designs slewing
oysters upon the wire, and of course eating
them. This will be a preity ticklish opera
tion ; bo careful, stand from under.
PREMIUM LIST.— From the fact that there
is a certain class of people, members of
the Association, who leel indignant at the
manner in which the publishing of the
Premium List of the COLUMBIA COUNTV AGRI
CULTURAL, HORTICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL
ASSOCIATION has been managed, we have
been solicited to give it one insertion
through our columns, and all will be made
right. The members of this Association
wish to see their publishing extended to all
the papers in the county, and this they will
Jjve, and if not done by those appointed
ijfaf that purpose, the other members will
site the matter in their hands, and see that
and done right too. It is very
this matter should have a

HUMPHREYS' SPECIFIC
.110 MCE OP ATII [ C REMEDIES
NO. 062, BIIOJIDIVJIY.
THE G ICE AT EEATUKE
Of ill is series of Domestic Remedies is that
each particular medicine is a Specific for the
particular iliseaao or class of diseases whoso
name it bears, and may be relied upon for
the cure of that particular affection. Hence,
persons suffering from a chronic disease or
long standing ailment, in buying a case of
Humphreys' Specifics, obtain the particular
one desired in their ease, und thus them
selves make a euro which otherwise would
cost them many dollars, and no small a
mount of lime and medical, attendance, if,
indeed, it could be obtained at all.
Thus iriiihitudes suffer Irom Dispepsin,
Bilhous, Coaiiveness, Bad Taste, Coaled
Tongue, and Debility, which is perfectly
controlled and cured by the
DYSPEPSIA SPECIFIC.
There is scarcely a phase or form of this
disease which is not promptly controlled and
ultimately cured 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 Irorn their old
coniplf.iat.
COUGHS, COLDS, AND SOKE THROAT
wliiah so frequenly lead to
BRONCHITIS AND CONSUMPTION,
are all in their early stage cured by the
COUGH PILLS.
Many cases of long standing Bronchitis and
I irritating Coughs have been perlectly cured
by this Specific. But more I many persons
have a specific liability to colds and tako
them Irom the least exposure. This wilt be
entirely relieved by the use of the Cough
Pills, as scores can testify irorn experience :
So CATARRH is ono of our most common
and most troublesome diseases,against which
the Old School Medicines and even Ho
moeopathic prescriptions, are of little use.—
Yel hundreds cf persons have been cured of
nut only recent and fresh, but even long
standing and obstinate casus of Catarrh by
the use of this Specific.
One aged lady in Syracuse was thus per
fectly cured of a Catarrh, which had annyed
her all tier life. And a young lady at one of
our first class boarding schools, who was so
■ affiicted with this disease as 10 require more
than forty handkerchiefs a week, was en
tirely cured in a single week by litis Speci
fic. PILES,
blooding 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 llio Piles Specific. True, lime is requir.
Ed ; but the Specific is pleasant (o lake, re
quires neither diet nor restraint, and being
tollowed 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 lorm of disease,
which lias been worili to them ten times the
cost of Ike entire set.
The case contains the best
FEVER AND AGUE SPECIEIC
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 u faver and ague
| district. It prevents or protects upon ihe
| same principle that vaccination prevents
small pox or belladoniio prevents scarlet fe
-1 fever, by pre-oebupying ihe system with the
. true specific. Hundreds have been thus
protracted and cured.
THE OPHTHALMY SPECIFIC
has proved a most valuable re mil y lor Sore
EJcs and Evciiils, and for Weak and Blur
red Sight. One lady in Indians, who had
been a sufferer from sore eye lor many
years, and lortwo years was entirely blind,
was cured perfectly by the Ophllulmy Spe
cific alone.
HEADACHES
to which so many are subject, find a cura
live in the case. There is a specific which
relieves at the time ol ihe attack, and also
one which corrects thu condition ol ihe 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
ueorrhma or Whiles, attended with debility
of exhaustion, and lor which other forms ol
medicine are ol little value, are fully con
trolled and cured by the Female Pills ; while
the specific for Irregularities control almost
every form of Seamy, Painful or Irregular
Menstruation.
DIARRHOEAS & SUMMER COMPLINTS J
in adulls or children are controlled liko ma- |
gic by the Diarrhoea Pills, whiie il may be l
averred without Hie possibility ol successful i
contradiction thai the Dysentary Pills aro the I
most perfect specific for thai disease known.
For ihe various forms ol
FEVERS, SCARLET FEVER, MEASLES,
and other diseases ol children, the Fever
Pills may be sulely and sunly relied upon.
These Specifics of Prof. Humphreys, usud
for years in Ins extensive practice,uud 10 the
perfection ol which he lias tluvuled ihe re
sources ol extensive knowledge, experience
and study.
The public may rest assured that during
the lifetime of Dr. H., no one lias been or
shall be trusted with the preparation of his
Specifics, and he offers the guaranty ol his
ptolesstonal lile ai.d reputations thai they
shall be just as ho represents ihcni.
They have now been before the pub
lic for five years, and have everywhere
won golden opinions Irorn the many thou
sands who have used litem.
Simple, free from intricacy, technicality,
or danger, they have become the ready re
course and aid of tho parent, traveler, nurse,
or invalid, and have become the family
physician and medical adviser of thousands
ol families. Nowhere have they be u tried
without having been approved, and their
highest appreciation is umuug those who
have known them Ihe longest, and most Ul
timately.
Every Family will find these Specifics all
they have been recommended ; Promt Re
