Rumor has it, that Dr. Palemon John, In

"Vehilt, is the Midst of Life vt are r
Death." Among the obituary notices ic
ibis paper we chronicle the demise of Ems
Dietterick, Esq., of Montour township, who
died rather suddenly from the effects of act
acute attack of Erysipelas, leaving an inter
esting family and a large circle of friends
to mourn bis speedy death Mr. D. was a
well-to-do farmer, respected, and esteemed
by all who knew him, having lired more
than the average years of a man's life, and
at one time filled the position of County
Commissioner with credit alike to himself
and his constituents. His funeral obsequies
were largely attended, there being some
fifty carriages in the procession. The re
mains were interred in the old Presbyterian
burying ground; at this place, after which
the mourners, relatives and friends repaired
to the Lutheran Church and listened to an
appropriate and impressive sermon, deliv
ered by the Rev J. R. Dimm.
Pee John chatters quite a good deal over
additions made to his subscription list, in
creased advertising patronage, and large
run of job-work. All this may teem flatter
iag to him, if true; bat we have often
heard it remarked that a hungry dog always
made the most noise. His yelping may
now be expected soon to cease, as he is
supported and paid ont of taxes wrung from
the pockets of the poor people. It's a
blessed thing to pay taxes to keep up such
individuate as Tee John. The community
could not spare him especially the ladies.
Dead Samnel Alexander, a worthy and
respectable citizen of this place, died at his
residence in Sageturg a few days ago. He
was in the 59:h year of his age. Long a
devoted christian in communion with the
Methodist Fpiscopal Church,-he saw his
approaching end with calmness and met
the last great foe, like a good soldier of the
Cross. Montour Ame-icm.
On Saturday morning of last week, two
young men, named Wm. Thompson alias
Clark C. Little, and George Shippy, the for

latter with larceny, escaped from the Jail at
Tdr.khannock, Wyoming county, by climb
ing over the wall. They made a rope lad

This certifies th&t I have ued the PI o

with a cdd. accompanied with a cronpy
coush, so bad, indeed, that it could not,
talk and scarcely breathp. Hiving heard
so much said about the Phreiiix Pectoral
I pmenred s bofle cf ii. Hie first dose
relieves the difficulty ol bre?lhng, and be
fore the chi'd had taken one faunh of the

should have it in Iheir hone.

says: "A lew days since I bought two
dozen of your valuable couah remedy to

gross of it.
"Your medicine gives better satisfaction
than any other I have in the Store. I am
agent lor some of the most popular conah
preparations, but yours seems lo be doing
the mot good."
The following is an extract from a letter
from Hiram Ellis, merchant, near Potts-,
town, Pa., "I have tried Ihe Phoenix Pec
toral and find it 10 be ihe bet cough med
icine extant. It meets with a more readf
sale than any other that I have ever bad in
my store."
The proprietor of thi medicine has so
much confidence in its curative powers,
from the testimony of thousands who have
ued it, that the money will te paid back
to any purchaser who is not satisfied with
its effects.''
