HATHAWAY'S
Patent Sot Air Cooking Stoves.
Trill HE subscriberhaving entered into tbe stovebusi-
K stess in Pittsburgh, respectfully informsthe pub
lie that he intends carrying it on in its varicrusbnanches
at the warehouse No. 124 WOOD STREET, above
Fifth street, where he will be prepared to supply
purchasers with any articles in his line. In addition
to other Stoves which be will have on hand, be 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
States; it is more durable in its construction, 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 Pennsylvania have
' been Imposed uponby the introduction ofnew and high
ly recommended Stoves which were badly constructed,
and havirg soonfailed and become useless. I will grant
to persons wishing to procure the Hot Air Stove, the
privilege of using it a sufficient length oftime 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 it is to your advantage to have one.
Allorders will be promptly attended to bv the subscri
ber. ROBERT DONAVAN.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Miller's MaRSI:O7I House, Sept, 19, 1844
Mr. R. Doti sysN—Sirt I have in use one of Hath
away'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 as my kaowledge
extends, I have no hesitation in saying it is the best
stove now in use. I need not particularize its merits,
but would advise all disposed to possess an article of
the kind, to adopt the best method of satisfying them
selves, that is, to try it; and I doubt not they will be
satisfied. D. R. 'MILLER.
IVashington Temperance Hovse,
Pittsburgh, Sept. 19, 1844.
Mr. R. DoNavoa —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 tequired, makes it an object worthy the utten
tion of all who desire a good stove.'
THOMAS VARNER.
14' I embrace this opportueity to recommend the
Hot Air Cooking Stoves; I have used the one you put
up for me constantly rill summer, 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,lthink them worthy the attention of all
who wish a good stove; to such I would say, try them
and prove what they are.

DOCTOR EDMUND LANDIS'S
PATENT DOUBLE SPRING TRUSS.
For the Melioration and Cure of Hernia.
HUMANITY is deeply indebted to the ingenuity
and perseverance of Dr Edmund Landis, a citi
zen t f Lancaster, Pennsylvania, for a valuable improve
ment in the construction of the Truss for the meliora
tion of Hernia or Rupture, which, after being careful
ly tested by application to a number of patients, has
never failed to give relief, and in most cases has proved
successful in effecting a permanent cure.
This improved Truss has been submitted to the most
eminent members of the medical profession, who, af
ter fair trial and examination, have concurred in pro
nouncing it an important discovery, particularly as it
admits of perfect adjustment to the seat of the com
plaint, and of bearing with certainty upon the point
where the pressure is required. without admitting of a
chance of change or of shifting by any action of the
muscles, hip or body,—the outer spring, which is very
elastic, only giving, by which arrangement every move
ment is accommodated.
The suffering and imminent danger to life conse
quent upon that most distressing of all complaints,
Strangulated Hernia, need never be apprehended by
persons who wear this improved Truss, and the patient
may cherish n confident hope, that in consequence of
the intestine or omentum never being permitted to
protrude in the slightest degree, that the distended
ring or opening will gradually contract, and a perma
nent cure be effected, when the Truss may be dispens
ed with altogether.
This Truss may he very properly termed, Dr LAN
DIS' COMPOUND SPRING TRUSS; the springs
being 2 in number, the inner and the outer, the latter
ying over the former. The exterior spring is three
times the length of the interior, upon the end of the
latter the compress or eliptical pad or block is fasten
ed, which rests upon the affected part. There is a
small adjusting screw, which passes through the outer
spring, immediately over the pad or block, and is
formed to bear upon any part of the block, so that the
pressure can be made to act immediately upon or over
the rupture with the degree of force or weight which
the case may require. The whole apparatus is so ad
justed as to fit any peculiarity of form, at the same
time so flexible as to occasion neither inconvenience
nor uneasiness to the wearer,while following his usual
avocations.
The following distinguished members of the Med
ical profession have borne ample and unqualified testi
mony to the palliative and curative value and impor
tance of Dr Landis' discover): George B Kerfoot, M
D„ and John L Atlee, M D., of Lancaster; Geo M'.
Clelland, M D., Professor of Surgery in the Pennsyl
vania and Jefferson College, and Samuel M'Clellund,
M D., Professor of Anatomy in the same college; Sam
uel Martin. M D., Professor of Anatomy in the Penn•
sylvania College, &c.; James M D., Pro
fessor of Surgery in Vermont College, &c.; John Wilt
bank, M D., and %V B Grant, M D., Professor in the
Pennsylvania College; Henry G Patterson, M
Professor of Materia Med ica in the Pennsylvania Med
ical College; to which we add with pleasure the res
pect able names of S Snyder, M D., J K Neff, M D.,
C L Baker, M D., and Henry Carpenter, M D., of
Lancaster.
H H McCULLOUGH having purchased the patent
right for making and vending the above TRUSS, is
prepared to furnish them to all who may be afflicted
with that disease. Ile is also prepared to fill all or
ders from Physicians and Druggists, and solicits their
patronage. He will attend to applying the instru
ment; believing it to be superior to anything of the
kind ever invented. He has put the ptice so low that
it is within the reach of all. The testimonials of the
eminent Physicians, whose names are above append.
ed, arc deemed sufficient recommendations.

THE subscribers having opened a store, NO 8,
St Clair street, (west side) for the sale of Lamps
&e., respectfully invite the attention or the in
habitants of Pittsburgh, Allegheny and the surround

purchasing elsewhere. Our arrangements with the
manufucturs ate such that we can safely any, we are
prepared to light in the most brilliant and economi
vat manner, Steamboats, Hotels, Public Halts,
Churches, Stores, Shops, Parlors, Bridges and
Streets, as well as the more "dark and benighted cor
ners, or any place where brilliancy, neatness and strict
econemy is desired. Among our means fur letting our
"light shine," may be found the following Lamps for
burning Lard, Lard Oil and 'Sperm Oil, viz:
Hanging Lamps and Chandeliers, (2 to 4 branch)
For lighting Stores, Public Hulls, Churches, Heels
and steamboats.
Stand and Centre Table Lamps, (various patterns
and prices,) forrarlors.
Reading and Work Lamps.
Side and %Vali Lamps, Glass and Tin Hand Lamps
&c. &c.
The above are mostly nyott's Patent Lamps, with
double shelled fountain, and otherwiae an improve
ment upon any lamp now in use, which can be per
ceived at once by examination. Also, glass Trimmings
for lamps, such as Globes, Chimneys, Wicks, &c.
LAST, THOUGH NOT LEAST
nyotes Patent Pine Oil Lamps, such as Hanging
lamps and Chandeliers, (2 to 6 branch.)
Stand and Centre Table Lamps, (Glass Fronts with
or without drops,) Street lamps for lighting streets
and bridges.
As we cannot describe the various patterns, we cor
dially invite the public in examine them. We affirm
that in brilliancy, cleanliness and economy, no light
now in use will bear comparison with these lamps and
Pine Oil. They are as safe to use as sperm or Lard
Oil. Althottgkisorne are endeavoring to iden.ify this
article with the old camphine and spirit gas, (by the
use of which accidents have occurred,) we assert this
to be anotherand differen article. and that no accidents
have occurred during the extensive use of this article
in Philadelphia fur four years.
These Lamps leill produce as much light, with as
much neatness and more brilliancy, and 25 per cent.
less than any other light nosy in use, not excepting
Gas.
If any one doubts statements we have, or may here
after make, we would say. ee have commenced our
business in Pittsburgh, and knowing the merits of the
articles we user to the public, we are willing to bold
ourselves accountable at all times for our statements,
and are willing to put to test our Lamp—dollars and
cents,—testing economy—and the publi , l decided on
the neatness and brilliancy of die light.
We have many testimonials from residents of Phila
delphia and elsewhere, but the following may suffice
for the present..
This is to certify that I have purchased of M. 11.
Dyott a sufficient number of his Patent Pine Oil Lamps
to light the Univetsaliet Church of Philadelrhia, and
have used them in said Church about two years. I
have found them to give perfect satisfaction. The
light produced by them is the most brilliant that I
have ever seen. They are so economical that the cost
of the Lamps has been saved several times over,
lighting up of the Church not costing half as much as
it did before we procure them.
Respectfully, JOHN DESSALET,
Secretary of the above named Church.
Philadelphia, July 13, 1845.
The undersigned having used for two yearsHyott's
Patent Pine Oil Lamps in his Hotel, the Boliver
House, ran recommend them as the most economical
and brilliant light that can bo produced by any arti
de now in Lie. Before I commenced lighting my
house with !he Pine Oil, I was using the Gas; but af
ter a trial of the above Lamps, I was so much plea
3ed with the light, and convinced of their economy,
that I had !he Gas removed and burn the Pine Oil in
its place. WM. CABLES,

can with the fullest confidence recommend them, as

much cheaper than any other kind of Oil.

Quoth Josh's dulcinia tohiin t'uther night,
To make yourn look so, with a grin, replied Josh,
I've bought you a bottle of Thorn's Tooth Wash,
'Tis the best now in use, so the gentlefolks say,
And since they have tried this, cast all others away
But to prove it the best. to make the teeth shine,
Look again, my dear Sal, at the lustre of mine.
Then try this great tooth wash,
The Teaberry tooth wash.
And see ifthis tooth wash of Thorn's is not fine.
Having tried Dr."Thotrt's Tea Berry Tooth \Vasil,"
and become aquaintedwith the ingredients of its com

as it is one of the most pleasant tooth washes now in

I take pleasure in stating, having made use of
"Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash," that it is one of the
bestdentrifices in use. Being in a liquidform it com
bines neatness with convenience. While it cleanses
the enamel nod removes the tartar from the teeth, its
perfmne yields a fragrance peculiarly desirable.

The undersigned have used "Thorn's Compound
Tea Berry Tooth Wash," and have found it to be an

The Columbia Insurance Company of
Philadelphia,
A COMPINATION OF STOCK AND MUTUAL SECURITY,
TAKEs Fire, Marine and Inland Transportation
risks, at the usual rates of other Offices in this
city; but these who are or become Stockholders, may
insure Fire Risks on the mutual system, which is to
pay half the premium in cash, and in lieu of the other
half to give an obligation for five times the amount
paid in cash, liable to ra:eable contribution during the
term of the policy, in case it should be required.
Stockholders have thus a chance to save one-half of
the premium, nod are besides entitled to a full share
of dividend. Charter perpetual.
The mutual risk lessens in proportion to the amount
of insurances. If ten men insure any given sum, each
one incurs a risk of 10 per cent.; but 500 men would
only incur the risk of co ve.fifth of one percent.
Tho Company has been in operation since 1840.
Capital subscribed, $lOO,OOO, on which 20 per cent.
have been paid in, which amount, with about 20 per
rent. more, is safely invested in mortgages and other
securities.
There is a considerable amount of bonds on hands,
tck, be resorted to in case of losses, before any capital
subscribed can be used. This is the great security,
and this principle of mutual insurances has given great
satisfaction.
Marine and Inland Transportation Risks taken
