A BOY IN FEMALE DRESS iNII4C — KSON Th 'S
CAMP AT NEW ORLEANS.
Whilst the troops were in camp at Neer Orleans, in
1814, a person dressed in female attire was in the
habit of visiting the camps with oranges and miter
fruit for sale. Some of the soldierstecame suspicious
= that the fruit seller was not a vi ritable female, and
gave such information as made it proper to have the
lady taken up and interroga.cd. When she was brought
before the officers, she was seen to put her hand in her
'bosom. She drew out a written paper which, up( n
'examination turned out to be a certificate from a widuw
lady. She certified that the hearer was emplOyed by
her to assume the female dress, and sell fruit to the
troops—that she had three sons in the army, and was
forced to sustain herself with meat and bread in thiir
- absence by her own labor—that she had resorted to,
the employment of the youth to supply herself with a'
subsistence, and his appearance as e 'lesrmle was ter
device. The three seesof the lady were looked out;
they recognized•the hand-writing of their mother, and
they also knew the youth. Of course the boy was dis
charged, but the message which General Jackson sent
to the widow lady reflects everlasting credit upon his
generous heart. He sent her word that son need give
herself no further uneasiness about a livelihood, in the
absence of her sons—that a widow who would furnish
three such soldiers should have all that she needed
for her support. He had her amply provided for.
Yet there is a man presiding over Tennessee, as
Governor, who told Parson Bmwnlow sad others that
this samc General Jackson required him (then Elder
-Jones) to turn out a widow lady from the Church,
against whom no charges had been made, and without
any trial! Gov Jones denies having told Parson Brawn
low any such thing, but Dr Embree and Parson Brown
low prove that he did. Those who know Andrew
iZackson would have utterly scouted such a charge,
even if Jones and Bruwnlow had both professed to
make thestatement. But; as the matter stands, Gen
•eral Jackson's true character is illustrtaed by his treat
ment to the mother of his three soldiers at New Or-
Icons—Governor Jones' tine character is illustrated
by Parson Browillow and Dr Embree.

THE FIRST MEDICINE OP TOE AGE.

FOR CONSUMPTION.
COLDS, Coughs, Bronchitis, Asthma, Spitting of
Blood DOW my of Breathing, Pain in the Side.
Breast and Chest, Influenza, Whooping Cough, Croup
and all diseases of the Liver and
LUNGS.
Has now been before the puplic for several years
During which time its value has been tested by thou
sands who were laboring under the numerous diseases
which have their origin in a common Catarrh or Cold,
and which this medicine is designed to cure. The
result of this trial has been to place "Duncan's Rome.
dy" at the head of the patent medicines of the day.
BT . ITS OWN MERITS •NDEXCI.LLENCE,
it has attained a popularity exceding that of any other
preparation. now offered to the public for the preven
tion and cure of that large and frightful class ofdiseas
,es which so frequently lead to. and terminate in
CONSUMPTION,
it is now offererhe the afflicted with confidence as
the BEST preparation for Coughs, 'Collis, &c. extant
We are warranted in assuming for it this high charac-•
ter, by the proofs, which we are constantly receiving,
of the invaluable benefits derived from its use. Tea
timoniuls and recommendations of the strongest kind
are constantly being received from all quarter, by the
Proprietor and Agents.
In relieving cases of Asthma, Difficulty in Breathing,
Pain in the Side and Breast, it is unequalled; in cur
ing Bronchitis, Coughs and Colds, and in short remov
ing all the symptoms of approaching Pulmonary Con
sumption,
ITS SUCCESS HAS BEEN 11tIPARALELLED.
No other medicine has proved itself so really inval
uable. Thousands in Pittsburgh and the vicinity, are.
as far as human agency is concerned, indebted to Dr
Duncan's Expectorant Remedy for prolonging life and
health. Many persons after using the other cough
medicines of the day without effect, have been com
pletely restored by this truly
GREAT DISCOVERY in the HEALING ART.
A strong and undoubted evidence of is worth, is to
he found in the high degree of popular favor which it
has receiml since its introduction into the West.—
Wherever en agency has been opened for its sale, and
wherever it has received a fair and honest trial, it has
become firmly established as a
.STANDARD FAMILY MEDICINE.
It is rapidly superseding the use of the many nos
trums, which have so long imposed upon the communi
ty, which have obtained their name only by puffing
arid braggadocia, and which are now destined to be
thrown aside to make way for the best cough medicine
of the present age. It is not pretended that it will
positively cure every case of the disease, for which it
is designed, but it is honestly believed that in every
case where it gets a fair chance it will effect a cure.
Coming, then, before the people with the highest
recommendations, it is atleast, worthy of a trial by all
who are afflicted with any of that large and dangerous
class of disease..
The following is a specimen of the numerous testi
monials which we have received. It is from a PHY
SICIAN of high standing in Ohio.
Dear Sir—Having had occasion to witness the.ef
feet of Dr. Duncan's Expectorant Remedy on Mr Eli
Young in a case of Pulmonary Consumption, 1 felt it
my duty to make a brief statement in order that others
that are or may be afflicted with the same complaint
may be benefited by the same remedy.
He was attacked with inflammation in the left lobe
of the lungs in March 1843, attended with acute pain,
great difficultyof breathing, and a severe cough, which
proceded rapidly to suppuration: and not withstanding
the use and application of the best remedies prescribed
by our authors, the complaint in a few days began to
exhibit evident symptoms of ulceration.
In this distressing stage of the complaint, I had re
course to DrDancan's Expectorant Remedy fur con
sumption, which had the effect of checking the disease,,
immediately, and in a few days the pain ceased, the
breathing became free and easy, the cough left him,
and the expectoration subsided, the consequences of
which was that in using six bottles be has recovered
his health, and is restored to his family.
1 do het eby certify the above to be true statement of
my case as far as comes within my knowledge.

I take pleasure an stating, having made use of
"Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash," that it is one of the
best dentrifices M use. Being in aliquidfonn it com
bines neatness with convenience. While it cleanses
the enamel .tnd removes the tartar from the teeth, its
perfume yields aSsagwancso peculiarly desirable.
I. P. TIBBETTS. D.
The unilersigneil have need "Time's Compound
Tea Berry Tooth Wash," and have found it to be an
extremely pleasant dentrifice, exercising a most salu
tary influence over the Teeth and Gums; preserving
those indispensable members from premature decay,
preventing the accumulation of Tartar, and purifying
the Breath. Having thoroughly tested its virtues, we
take pleasurein recommending it to the public, believ
ing it io be the best article ofthekind now in use.

THE subscriber having entered into the stove burl
gess in l'ittsburgh, respectfully informs the pub
lic that be intends carrying it on in its vu ions branches
at the warehouse of Messrs. Pennock & Mitchell. No.
160 Liberty street, where be will be prepared to supply
purchasers with any articles In his line. In addition
to other Stoves which be will have on hand, he has
obtained the right to manufacture and sell Hathaway's
Patent Hot Air Cooking Stoves. This stove is pro
married! 'spoiler to any other now in use in the United
States; it is more durable in its construction, and bet
ter adapted to the use of baking, routing and cooking,
as it is heated very vegulariy by waning 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 diffrwent shwa,
and will sell them on reasonable terms, according to
skies. d have now in use upwards of fifty in and about
this city; all pat in use within six months. Being a
ware that the People of Western Pennsylvania have
been imposed 'Tub) , theintreduction ofaew and high
ly recommended Stoves which were badly constructed,
and havirg soon failed and become useless. I will grant
sa parsons wishing to procure the Hot Air Stove, the
privilege of using it a sufficient length is 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, es 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 it is to your advantage to have one.
All orders will be promptly attended to by the subscri
ber. ROBERT DONAVAN.

Mr. R. Dow AVA 'IC I have m use one of Hatb
awar's Hot Air Cooking Stoves, which I got from you
last Spring. It affords me much pleasure to recom
mend it for its excellence. So far ss my knowledge
extends, / have no hesitation in saying it is the best
stove now in we. I need not particularise its merits,
but would advise all disposed to possess an article of
the kind, to adoFg, the best method of satisfying them
selves, that is, to try it; and I doubt nut they will be
satisfied. D. R. MILLER.

Mr. R. DOS AVON-Sir:--I have had in use 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 use. 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 ofall who desire a good stove.
13P I embrace this opportunity to recommend the
Hot Air Cooking Stoves; I have used the one you pot
up for me constantly all summer. and I most say it is
a grand article. I believe it id superior to any other
stove now in use in this city. The oven baked well,
and is large enough to bake four large loaves of brawl
at one time; it also cooks very speedily,and it requires
very little coal, I tie nk these worthy the attention of all
who wish a good sto.e to such I would say, try them
and prove what they are.
