INsw SAYSTY GVARD.—The American of ricer'
slay notices a new Safety Guard, Ebr the prevention of
explosions on board of Steam Boats, invented by Dr
Rf M WRIGHT, of this city, which we have heard spo.
ken of in the highest terms, by those competent to
judge of its utility. We have not had an opportunity
oil examining the Guard itself, but we have seen an
admirable drawing of it. by Mr A C Deana, and
frims his explanation of its operations, we think its
adeantaipm as a Safety Guard are very obvious.
GRA TT AN'S MAO %RIR I.—The December number o

for the disappointment the public may have expe-
Tienoad from its detention. Besides the customary
'amount of reading matter from its' popular contribu

Friend," a gorgeous colored print of a Peacock, and
plate of winter fashions.

THIS pleasant.,and certain cure for
coughs and colds goes ahead of all the
preparations now or ever offered to
the public. The use of it is so great that the proprie
tor has some difficulty in keeping a supply for the in•
creasing demand. Medical agencies, groceries, drug.
gista,coffee-houses, and even bars on steamboats keep
a supply on hand. It fs called for every where, and
will sell in any place. The reason is this: every one
who has a cough or cold by eating a few sticks find
themselves cured, as it were, by magic.. Persons at
a distance, by remitting the money, post paid, to the
subscriber, will be attended to. Fur sale by the stick,

HE subscriberhaving entered into the stove busi
ness in Pittsburgh, respectfully informs the pub
lic that he intends carrying it on in its various branches
at the warehouse of Messrs. Pennock & Mitchell. No.
160 Liberty street, where he will be prepared to supply
purchasers with any articles in his line. In addition
to other Stoves which he will have on hand, he has
obtained the right to manufacture and sell Hathaway's
Patent Hot Air Cooking Stoves. This stove is pro
nounced superior to any other now in use in the United
Stales; it is more durable in its consunction, and bet
ter adapted to the use of baking, roasting and cooking,
as it is heated very regularly by confining the air in
the stove; and it is a great saving of fuel as well as
labor. I will keep on hand a sufficient number to sup
ply all demands if possible; I have five different sizes,
and will sell them on reasonable terms, according to
sizes. I have now In use upwards of fifty in and about
'this city; all pet in use within six months. Being a
ware that the People of Western Penn.ylvania hre
been imposed upon by the introduction ofnew and high
ly recommended Stoves which were badly constructed,
and havirg soon failed and become useless. I will grant
to persons wishing to procure the Hot Air Stove, the
privilege of using it a sufficient length of time to prove
its superior quality before I ask them to purchase.
Persons notifying me from a distance by letter, can
have stoves put up at any time, as I have wagons to
carry them out; I therefore invite farmers and all per
sons to come and judge for themselves; also to try them
and prove that itja to your advantage to have one.
All orders will be promptly attended to by the subscri

Miller's Mansion Mouse,Sept, It, 1814. •
Mr. R. Don AL VAI.I - ...Sir: I have an use one of Hath
away's Hot Air Cooking Sieves, which I got from you
last Spring. It affords me much pleasure to recom
mend it for its excelleace. So far as my khowleagos
extends, I have no hesitarion in saying •it is the best
stove now in use. I need not particularize its merits,
but would advise all dispose& to possess an article of
the kind, to adopt the best method of satisfying them
selves, that is, to try it; and I doubt net they will be
satisfied. D. R. MILLER.
Washingion Temperance House,
Pittsburgh, Sept. 19, 1844
Mr. R. Doxavox—Sir.—l have had in we for five
months, one of Hathaway's Hot Air Cooking Stoves,
and I have no hesitation in saying it is the best stove
now in u4e. The various kinds of cooking it is calcu
lated to do at the same time, and the small quantity
of fuel required, makes it an object worthy the atten
tion of all who desire a good stove.
M• I embrace this opportunity to recommend the
Hot Air Cooking Stoves; I have used the one you put
up for me constantly all rummer, and I must say it is
a grand article. I believe it is superior to any other
stove now in use in this city. The oven bakes well,
and is large enough to bake four large loaves of bread
at one time; it also cooks very speedily, and it requires
very little coal, I think them worthy the attention of all
who wish a good stove; to such I would say, try them
and prove what they are.

By the Act of Incorporation, the Capital stock is

profits of the Co. shall hereafter be funded, and remain
with the Institution as a further guarantee and protec

PORTABLE BOAT LINE
For the transportation of V erchandize to and from
PITTSBURGH, BALTIMORE, PHILADEL
PHIA, NEW YORK AND BOSTON.
THE success this line has met with, since k was
first established on the "Individual Enterprise"
system, has induced the proprietors to increase the
number of floats during the winter to twenty-five, one
of which will leave Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Bat
ti more every day (except Sundays) during the season,
and make the trip through in six days.
The superiority and advantages of the Portable Boat
System overevery othermode of transportation (when
canals intersect with rail roads) are too well known
to shippers by this route generally to require nay corn
merit.

dice, or goods of any kind that may be consigned to
the Agents of this Line, forwarded with dispatch and
at the very lowest rate of freight charged by other
Lines, without any additional charge made for receiv
