Evans' Chamomile Pills.
ABRAHAM J. CLEME"Ft, residing at .66, Mott
street, New York, was afflicted with Dyspepsia
in iu mostaggravated form. The symptoms were vi
olent headache, great debility, fever, costiveness,cough,
heartburn, pain in the chest and stomach always after
sating, impired appetite, sensation of sinking at the
stomach, furred ton g ue, nausea, with frequent vomit-'
i ags,dizziness inwar ds night and restlessness. These
nad continued upwards of a twelvemonth, when, en
consulting Dr. Wm. Evans, 100 Chatham street, and
submitting to his ever successful and agreeable mode
treatment, the patient Wil3 completely restored to
- 4 health in the short space of one month, and grateful for
the incalculable benefit derived, gladly came forward
and volunteered the above statement, For sale, whole

Dater Bargains than ever, at the Three Dig
Doers.
THE subscriber would respectfully-inform his cus
tomers and the publicgenerslly, that notwithstad
logawunprecedented sales at the Three Big Doors,
during the present season; he has still on hand the lar
gest - and most varied assortment of elegant CLO
THING that can be bought west of the mountains.—
fhe public may rest assured that all articles offered at
isis store are maufactured from FRESH GOODS, pur
. abased in the Eastern market)) this spring and made in
to /garments by Pitttsburgh workmen.
Inconsequence of the multiplication of slop shops in
Dar city, filled with pawn broker;clothes and the musty,
sastbff garments of former seasons, from the eastern ci
ties, the public should be cautious to ascertain the char
actor of the establishments in which they are invited to
purchase, before they part with their money. The arti
cles offered at several of the concerns in this city, are
the mere offals of New York and Philadelphia slop
'hops. and sent out here to be palmed off on the Pius
burgh public. Purchasers s hot Id be on their guard a
gainst these impositions, and they may rely on the fact
that no establishment that advertises e atter-1z made Clo
+thing, can give as good an article or as advantageous
bargains as can be had at the "Three Big Doors."
The public will please remember that all the subscri
lber's garments are made inthit city, by competent work
men, and not gathered up like the goods now offered by
she "birds of passage" from the shreds and patches of
•tern slop shops. It will always be his endeavor to
nspintain the reputation that the "Three Big Doors"
'have obtained for furnishing a superior style of CLO
lf KING in every respect, and at prices below those of
any other establishment.
He would again return his thanks to his friends and
the public for the unprecedented patronage bestowed
upon his establishment, and believing that they have
Cessna it to their advantage to deal with him, he would
repeat kis invitation to all those who wish to purchase
Clothing of every description at the lowest price,to call

THE attention of those who have been somewhat
sceptical in reference to the numerous certili
sates published in favor of Dr. Swayne's Compouno
Syrup of Wild Gerry, on account of the persons being
unknown in this Section of the State, is respectfully di
rected to the following certificate, the writer of which
has been a citizen of this borough for seveml years, and
is kaown as a gentleman of integrity and responsibility.
To the Agent, Mr. J. KIRBY.
I have used Dr. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild
Cherry fora Cough, with which I have been severely
afflicted for about four months, and I have no hesitation
in saying that it is the most effective medicine that I
have been able to procure. It composes all uneasiness,
and agrees well with my diet,--and maintains a regular
and good appetite. I can sincerely recommend it to all
stherssimilarly altered. J. Mrsolet, Borough of

THE RICH BEGGA 11.—At Pont-_4-ademer,- , ,s , town

Diihisson, whose scriled and tattered garments, uoi
miserable existence, 'had occasioned the compassion
of the inhabitants of thra f33 , -e. He arrived Feveral
years ago, bringing with him a trunk boubE with
iron, which he said contained some articles of no val

ly eating every day, he appeared at ill seasons with
bare feetand in rags. All the neighbors believed him
to be in the midst of extreme poverty. Onee only , on
the at rival of the ashes of Napoleon, for whose memo ,
ry he had preserved a religious vcmeretion, he bought
shoos for his son, in order that he 'might 'do homage
to the -remains of the Elopertir. But this vcas a sin
ele'net of liberality, and that pair of shoes was the on

poor, miserable, without care and without support.
But what must have been the surprise of his con on

old trunl:flied with gold and silver, and containing
the sum of 16C,000 francs, 1,669 pieces of 6 francs
each, 431 luuis, and a considerale nurcher of 5 franc 4.
The joy and astonishment of the unexpected heit
caused Mm the loss of his reason. A hundred thcnr:'
sand francs for him! who had sUppused that he it i ! s•
