Howard Association, Philadelphia Pa.
This well known Benevolent Association
has proved itself, by a long course of hon
orable dealing, to be a perfectly reliable
and highly useful Institution. We com
mend it to the public attention with much
confidence. See advertisement.
Ntw Firm. The firm known as Stohner
& Co., of the bakery and confectionery
-lore, in this place, has dissolved, and in its
Mead a firm exists by the name of Stohner
and Fox, who occupy and carry on the
baking and confectionery business in all its
branches in the same establishment, in the

Ok making an examination, a few days
-since, cf some peach buddings, we found
that they were very much injured. On
-opening the bods we discovered the peach
formed, nearly the size of a grain of clover
-seed, and as black as black could be. As
far as we examined the peach crop threat
ened to be a complete failure.
Oca venerable townsman, Thomas Pain
ter Eaq , and family, moved from this place
to Money i yesterday. As we stated in a
recent issue he has been a resident of
Bloomsborg for many years, and for a long
time was the acting Justice of the Peace for
ihis vicinity. ' He leaves here with the ben
wishes of all who knew him. Republican.
For several weeks says the Sullivan Dem
ocrot, a gaunt wolf has been lurking in the
vicinity of our town '''seeking whom he
may devour." A few weeks ago he fol
lowed our worthy Sheriff for some distance
through the woods, bat probably finding
oat that he was on the track of an officer of
the law, who might make a levy on his
calp, he decamped. The remains of two
or three deer have been found, showing that
his woifship has had some dainty meals.
Our town is well supplied with huckster
ing butchers. There are no less than six
ox seven to be been on the streets nearly
every morning. .Notwithstanding there are
to many of them, the price still keep9 high
Necessarily they'll have to make a break
in their prices. Batchers from a distance
.are offering at 7 and 8 c'.s., "all around,"
for the season. This is quite a difference,
from 9, 10, 1 1, and 12 cts., and in tbecourse
of a season would make to a person who
bought largely a snug sum. Opposition is
tbe life of business and often the downfall
of parties.
' Safes. Attention is directed to the adver
tisement of Evans & Watson's Salamander
Safefcin another column of our paper. This
firm manufactures an excellent article of
safes. They are fire pioof, having repeat

a good and reliable safe to purchase of this
firm in Philadelphia. They have constant
ly on hand all descriptions and . sizes, and
are prepared to sell reasonably cheap for

HOLLO W AY'S PILLS.
NErVOUS DISORDERS.
What is more fearfnl than a breaking
down ot the nervous system t To be exci
table or nervous in a small degree is most
distressing, for where can a remedy be
found ? There is one : drink but little
wine, beer, or spirits, or far better, none;
take no coffee, -weak tea being preferable;
set all the Iresh air you can ; take three or
four Pills every night; dat plenty of solids,
avoiding the use of slops ; and if these gold
en rules are followed, you will be happy
in mind and strong in body, and forgetyou
have any nerves.
MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERS.
If there is one thing more than another
for which these Pills are so famous it is
their purifying properties, especially their
power ol cleansing the blnod from all im
purities, and removing dangerous and sus
pended secretions. ' Universally adopted as
the one giand remedy for female complaints
thev never fail, never weaken the system,
and always bring about w hat is required.
SICK HEADACHES AND WANT OF
APPETITE.
These feelings which so sadden us. most
frequently arise from annoyances or troub
le, from obstructed perspiration, or from
eaiing and drinking what is ur.fit for us,
thus disordering the liver and stomach
These organs must be regulated if you wisf.
to be well. The Pills, it taken according
to the printed instructions, will quickly re
store a healthy action to both liver and
stomach, whence follow as a natural con
sequence, a gocd appetite and a clear head.
In the East and West Indies scaicely any
other medicine is ever used for these dis
orders. DISORDERS OF THE KIDNEYS.
In all diseases affecting these organs,
whe;her they secrete too much or too little
water; or whether they be afflicted with
stone or gravel, or with aches and pains
settled in the loins over the regions of the
kidney a. these Pills sSould bo taken accor
ding to the printed instructions directions,
and the Ointment should be well rubbed
into the small of the back at bed time. This
treatment will give almost immediate relief
when all other means have failed.
FOR STOMACHS OUT OF OR PER.
No medicine will so effectually i in Drove
the tone of the stomach as these Pili;tthey
remove all acidity, occasioned enber by
intemperance or improper diet. They
reach the liver and reduce it to a healthy
action; they are wonderfuliy efficacious in
cases of spasm in fact they never fail in
