TH' Proprietors of the old established Line have
thoroughly recruited and renewed their stock,

The long experience of the Proprietors in the car

patronage heretofore extended to "Bingham's Line"
will be continued and increaaed.
Deeming the usual self-glorifying style of advertis
ing, too absurd for imitation, and believing that with
fortner.eustomers we need no self-commendation, we
would merely invite such as have not heretofore
patronised our Line, to give us a trial.
Our rates of freight shall at all times be as low as
the lowest that are charged by other responsible Lines.

at the warehouse No. 124 WOOD STREET, above
Fifth street, where he will be prepared to supply
purchasers with any aititles 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
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 an cooking,
as it is heated very regular/5? 1:11 cortfming 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
wore that the People of Western Pennsylvania have
been imposed upon by theint rod ucticrn 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 tip at any time, as I have wagons to
carry them out; I therefore invite Farmers and all per

RECOMMENDATIONS
Miller'i Mansion House,&V, 19, 1844.
Mr. R. DoNAVAtt—Sir: I haveususeotwof Bath
Fl wa !Tot Air Cooking Stoves, which I got from you
lust 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 possePs an article of
the kind, to adopt the best method of4atisfying them
selves, that is, to try it; and I doubt not they will be
satisfied. D. R. MILLER.
Washington Temperance Howse,
Pittsburgh, Sept. 19, 1844.
Mr. R. Dos •troN—Sirt---I have had in use for five
months, one of Hathaway's Hut Air Cooking Stoves,
and I have no hesitation in saying it is the best stove
now in UAC. The various kinds of cooking it is calcu
lated to do at the same time, and the small quantity
of fuel required, makes it nn object worthy the atten
lion of all who desire. a good stove.
rl p I embrace this opporturity to recommend the
Hot Air Cooking Stoves; I have used the one you put
up for me constantly all 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 g ood stove; to such I would say, try them
and prove what they are.

DOCTOR EDMUND LANDIS'S
PATENT DOUBLE SPRING TRUSS.
For Ike Melioration ahil Cure of Hernia.
HUMANITY is deeply indebted to the ingenuity
and perseverance of Dr Edmund Landis, a citi
zen of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, for a caluableimproce
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 tins been submitted to the must
emirent members of the medical profession, who, af
ter fair trial and examinution, have concurred in pro
nouncing it an important discovery, P articularly as it
admits of perfect adjustment to the seat of the com
plaint, and of bearing with certainty upon the point
where the pressute is required, without admitting of
chance of change or of shifting by any fiction 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 lire 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 a 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 con:ract, and a perma
nent cure be effected, when the Truss may ate dispens
ed with altogether.
This Truss may be 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
small adjusting screw, which passes through the mom
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
tile rapture with the degree of fume 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 procession lurveborne ample and unqualified testi
mony to the palliative and curative value and impor
tance of Dr Landis' discovery: 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 D., Professor of Anatomy in the same col lege; Sam
uel Martin. M D., Professor of Anatcmy in the Penn•

pectable names of S Snyder, M D., J K Neff, M D.,

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. He 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 Nines° low that
it is within the reach of all. The testimonials of the
eminent Physicians, whose names are above append

As we cannotdascribe the various patterns, we cor-
dially invite the public to 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 us safe to use as sperm or Lard
Oil. Although some are endeavoring to idetrify this
article with the old carnphine and spirit gas, (by the
use of which accidents have occurred,) we asset t this
to be anot her and differen article. and that no accidents
have occurred during the extensive use of this article
in Philadelphia for four years.
These Lamps will produce as much light, with as
much neatness and more brilliancy, and 25 per cent:
less than any other light now in use, not excepting ,
Gas.
If any one doubts statements we have, or may here
after make, we would say. we have commenced our
buiness in Pittsburgh, and knowing the meths of the
articles we offer to the public, we arc willing to hold
ourselves accountable at all times fur our statements,
and are willing to put to test our Lamp—dollars and
cents,—testing entinintiy—and the publi: decided on
the neatness and brilliancy of the light.
We have many testimonials from re,idents of Phila
delphia and elsewhere, but the following may suffice
for the present.
This is to certify that I have purchased of M. B.
Dyott a sufficient numberofhis Patent Pine Oil Lamps
to fight the Universalist Church of PitiludelFhia, 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. 'Fbey are so economical ibat the cost
of the Lamps has been saved several times over; the
lighting up of the Church not costing half (13 much as
it did before w•e procure them.

The undersigned having used for two years Dyot
Patent Pine Oil Lumps in his Hotel, the Holism
House, can recommend them as the most economical
and brilliant light that can be produced by any anti
clo now in use. Before I commenced lighting my
house with the Pine Oil, 1 was using the Gas; but af
ter a trial of the above Lamps, t was gcs much plea
aed with the light. and convinced of their economy,
that I had the Gas removed and burn the Pine Oil in
its place. WM. CABLES,

Quoth Josh's dulciniatoliim 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, nt tke lustre of mine.
Then try this great tooth wash,
The Teaberry tooth wash,
And see if this tooth wash of Thorn's is not fine.
Having tried Dr. "Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash,"
and become acquaintedwith theingredients of its com
position, [cheerfully say, I consider it. one of the safest,
as it is one of the most pleasant tooth washes now in
use. DAVID HUNT, Dentist.
Pittsburgh, Sept. 15, 1842.
I take pleasure in stating, having made use of
"Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash," thatit is one of the
best dentrifices in use. Being in aliquidfoiM, it com
bines neatness with convenience. While it cleanses.
the enamel and removes the tartar from the teeth, its
perftme yields a fragrance peculiarly desirable.
J. P. TIBBETTS, M. D.
The undersigned have used "Thorn's Compound
Tea Berry Tooth Wash," and have found it to be an
extremely pleasant dentriflce, exercising a most salu

those indispensable members from premature decay,
preventing the accumulation of Tartar, and purifying
the Breath. Havingthoroughly tested its virtues, we

No marine, river nor inland transportation risks are
taken by this Company. It makes no dividends

interest are appropriated exclusively to meet losses.

frrAKES Fire, Marine and Inland Transportation
1 risks, at the usual clues 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, end in lieu of the other
half to give an obligation for five times the amount
paid in cash, liable to ru:.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, and 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 n risk of 10 per cent.; but 500 men would
only incur ihe tisk of ono fifth of one percent.
The Company has been in operation since 1840.
Capital subscribed, $lOO,OOO, on which 20 per coat.
have been paid in, which amount, with about 20 per
cent. more, is safely invested in mortgages and other
securities.
There is n ronsiderahle nmount of bonds on hands,
to b e resorted to in case of losses, before nny capital
subscribed can be used. This is the great security,
and this principle of mutual insurances has given great
satisfaction.
