Gobey's Lady's Book for September has

Godey; terms S3 per annum for single sub

Os thk first page of this week's edition
can be seen a brief and truthful sketch of
our heroic candidate for the Vice Presi
dency., Co l. Joseph Lane, of Oregon. The
Col. would make, no doubt, most an excel
lent Vice President'; he is a good states
man as well as a warrior of high standing.
We ask for this sketch of Mr. Lane's life a
careful and attentive perusal by every read

Drowned. A. little girl, aged two years
and three months, was accidentally drown
ed in a rain barrel, at the residence of Mr.
Heath, in this borough, on Monday morn
ing of last week. The barrel was snnk in
the ground and hence easily accessible to
the child. - The name of the unfortunate lit
tle victim, was Eleanor Minerva, a daughter
of Jos. K. and Ada C. Norcross, of Phila
delphia, who, with its mother, was paying
a visit- to this place.-Danville Democrat. '
Scbscbibe. How often do we hear men
excuse themselves. from subscribing to a
paper or a periodical, by saying they have
no time to read. When we hear a roan
thus excise himself, we conclude .that he
has never found time to confer any substan
tial advantage either upon -his family, hi
country, or ' himself. ' To hear a freeman
thus express himse!f,is .ruly humiiiating,md
we can form no other opinion than that
ucb a man is of l.tle importance to society.
Lackawanna & Bloomsburg R.R In
to day's Star will be found the Time Table
of this road, showing clearly the hours of
arriving at and departing from the different
Depots along the line, which is quite a con
venience for the traveling public to know
when they can go and when they can stay.
The manner in which this road is being
managed is well calculated to command
confidence and respect from the public.
-Jos. N. Scranton is destined to become a
-popular President over this road. Cot. M.
W. Jacksox, the efficient and gentlemanly
"Superintendent, is doing good service in his

RAYMOND'S FAMILY
SEWING MACHINE!
PATENTED MARCH 9, 1858r
PRICE tlO EACH.
"J1TESSRS; ZUPPINGER & ROBBINS, of
Bloomsburg, baring purchased the ex
clusive right cf the above valuable Impro
ved Cheap Patent Sewing Machine, for
the County of Columbia, will be happy to
supply their friends with the article lor the
accommrdationof themselves and families.
The following are some of. the superior
advantages ibis implement possesses, viz:
1. It sews from 400 to 600 light stitches
per minute.
2. Double thread Machines are from the
more complicated character of their mech
anism invariably managed and threaded
with more or lrs difficulty ; not so with
RAYMOND'S, a child can manage it in two
hours, and it is threaded easier thaa a com
mon needle.
3. One of the most valuable features of
this Machine, is the stnalluess and the
compactness of its mechanism.
4. It can be attached to a board, table or
stand, in operating order,- and removed in
less than half a minute.
5. It greatly economizes the thread, and
yet produces a seam, sufficiently strong for
any work lor which it is intended, a qual
ification not known lo all kinds of Sewing
Machines. , ,
6. No human hand i capable of produ
cing a seam so regular and tysiemalic.
The seam is so strong if we ll done, that the
stronger material will' tear belore the
seam will give way.
7. Among the array of Pa'enl Sewing
Mach ines, there are none bo flicao uritl
durable as Raymond's Patent, but no Ma
chine is adapted to all kind. ol work an
expe'ience has proven. There are prhnps
none so realy useful, doing such a variety
"of wore for the immediate ue of the fam
ily circle, and at such a moderate nnc as
RAYMOND'S PATENT.
8. The operator chci shape his seam just
as he pleases, waves, leaves and liuwers,
etc-, can bo represented or imitated.
9. It is particularly adapteu to all kinds
of stiichiL;4 such as gentlemen's shirts,
bosoms, ribbands, collars, etc., and all
kinds of ladies' sewing, including silks,
lawns, delaines, calicoes, dusters, etc., ex
cepting for men's heavy wear, this Machine
is rather too light of construction.
10. But we all admit, that the advantage
lo health, and principally lo the vision or
eyesight, intiuced by the use of Sewing
Machines, surpasses infinitely all oiher ad
vantages. 21. This Machine fastens the seam al
ways itself, but if the operator wishes it
unfastened or open, there is a way lor it
too, thus you can have it fastened or not,
as you please, which is, someiime-;, espe
cially for beginners, a very favorable cir
cumstance. If the seam is left unfastened,
you can draw it out in three seconds and
save the thread.
For sale by ibe undersigned, at their re
spective residences, in Bloomsburg who
will put the Machine in operation and give
all necessary instruction.

MEDICAL REVOLUTION
Tlie World Unanimous
II 0 h L 0 W A Y'S 0 INTMENT.
THE GREAT COUNTER 1BRITANT! !
The virus of disease often makes its way
to the internal organs throngh the pores of
the skin. This penetrating Ointment, melt
ing nnder the hand as it is rubbed in, is ab
sorbed through the same channels, and,
reaching the seal of inflamation, promptly
and invariably suhdues it, whe her located
in the kidnevs the liver, the lungs, or any
other important organ. It penetrates the
surface to the interior, through the conntless
tubes that communicate with the skin, as
summer rain passes into the fevered etrth,
diffusing its cool and regenerating influence.
SKIN DISEASES AND GLANDULAR
SWELLINGS.
Every species of exterior irritation is
quickly reduced by the ami inflammatory
action of this Ointment. Angry Ervptions,
such as salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Tetter,
Ringworm, Scald Head, Nettle, Rasb, Scab
ies, (or Itch) &c., die out, lo return no more,
under this application. Hospital experi
ence in all parts of the World proves its
infallibility in diseases of Ihe skin, the mus
cles, the joints and the glands.
ULCERS, SORES, AND TUMORS.
The elfect ol this unrivalled external
remedy upon Scrofula, and other virulent
ulcers and sores, almost , maraculous. It
first discharges the poison which produce
suppuration and proud flesh, and thus the
cures which its healing properties afterwards
complete are safe as well as permanent.
HOUNDS, BRUISES, BURNS, AN
SCALDS
In cases of the fracture of the bones, in
juries caused by steam explosions, Braises,
hums, fccaliJs, Kheumatism, Minness of the
Joints, ard contraction of the sinews, it is
emplo)ed and warmly recommended by
the faculty. This, marvellous remedy has
been introduced by its inventor in persons
into all the leading Hospitals of Europend
no private household should be without tt.
UN DEFINABLE TESTIMONY.
The Medical Staff of the French sod Eng
lish Armies in the Crimea officially signed
their approval of HOLLOWAY'S Ointment,
as the most reliable dressing for sabre cuts,
siabs, and gun-shot wounds. It is also
used by the surgeons of ihe Allied Navies.
Both the Oimment and Pills should he used
in the following cases : .
Mercurial Eruotions,
Piles,
Bunions,
Burns.
Chapped Hands,
Chilblains,
Fistula,
Lumbago,
