4Vot yet examined the article entitled "a few

us a short time, until we get things fixed.
The Riots The City Councils of Louisville have
passed resolutions declaring that the foreign pop
ulation provoked the recent riots.
Isarge Beet! A lady in Burnside township
named Beot, gave birth to a "young un," last week
that weighed over ten pounds! Burnside can't
be "beet,"' for raising 'wegitables.'
.4 suggestion. Before our neighbor down street
slanders the Know Nothings so strong, he ought to
purge the Committee of vigilance and list of can
didates. There are no "Know Nothings" among
them! Oh no! '
An arrival. It will be seen that Mr. Graham
has just received a large assortment of new goods
at his store at Graham ton. Our readers in that
country should call and see them. They cant
deal with a better man.
.Vff com. Wc ore indebted to David Wintcr
i.ili for a mess of 'roasting-ears.' He's a clever
fellow.and those who want to purchase vegetables
ahould give him a call. We are waiting anxious
ly ior those tomatoes, David.
Thanls to Wm. McBride cf Curwensville, for
a bunch of most oxcellent cigars. Lover's of "the
ecu," in his neighborhood cannot do better than
to call on Billy, who is a judge of the article, and
always keeps the best quality.
Fooe, the young lady(!) up tbecountry, that
stele the K. X. ritual out of a gentleman's pocket.
.he put it into the pocket of her dress her moth
er washed it and lo! when she wanted to show
the document, it was cot there!
The Methodist Church. In 1755, five Methodists
ctt;ed in the city of Xew York, and formed the
f pt society in America. In 1353, just a century
later, the Methodist Church in the United Slates
riuiubtrs over four millions of worshipers.
Is it so ! It is said the Loco candidates will be
compelled to "kiss the calf skin,'r or in other
words, swear that they are not "Know Nothings."
AVhat"? the use of administering an oath to men
vho -have swore to perjure themselves?"'
Camp meeting. There will be a camp meeting,
-inilcr the charge of the Rev. Dr. Linthicuni, at
.Millport, between Curwensville and Glen Hope,
cun:mcncing on next Friday. We understand it is
to be a very large one there will be about thirty
tents
Drx l Abbot Lawrence. He died on Saturday
li.-t af ;er a long illness. He was a man of great
wct'.Uh. an ex member of Congress, ex minister to
England, and came within one vote of obtaining
the nomination for Vice President, instead of M.
Fillmore.
A do lqr. It is said that a perfect torrent of bad
brandy, worse gin, and superlatively worso whisky,
h pouring acros the Suspension Bridge into the
' village of Niagara Falls. It comes in the original j
package i. e. pints and quarts, as originally put I
up on the Canada side.
New subscribers. We must return our thanks j
to our friends in the upper part of the County.
for the large number of new subscribers we have i
booked during the past week. If the list is in
creased in the same proportion from this until j
court, wc will begin to think about enlarging our j
paper. . . ;
Truly a compliment. Three poor German min- J
strels found their way, the other day to Undar- j
cliff, the country seat of General George P. Mou- j
Ris. on the Hudson, and sang '-Woodman spare '.
that tree,.' in Dritch! The coincidence was pure
ly acsidental, and quite unknown to the hurdy
gurdyans. Rich. We are informed that one of the "mill
lonares," of this town, refused the other day to
contribute to the repairing of "Centre Church,"
because "the Methodists had all joined the Know
-Wirings." We believe he is the same man who
once gave part of a keg of white lead to paint the
front of the church in this place, and stood down
there all day swearing at tit fcllote for putting it
on too thick.
Queer people. We are to'd there are a number
of singular people about Bridgeport, above Cur
wensville, who have been attracting considerable
attention lately. They dress in an odd style, .aay
but little to outsiders, dodge all the questions they
are asked, and hav-e plenty of money. They are
continually coming and going, one set going off
and another taking their place who have not been
seen before. There's a mystery about them which
will defy the Know Nothing hunters to develope.
Fire. The house of James Crossly, at the Turn
pike Gate above Lumberville, with nearly all its
contents was destroyed by fire on Saturday, night
'art. Mr. Crossly and his wife were absent, and
two young men were staying in the house. They
ere waked np about the middle of the night
by the explosion of some rock powder which had
been standing on the cupboard, in an old coffee
pot. They found the house in flames, and were
only able to save a ted, a ehest, trunk, stand, and
one or two etker articles. Everything else belong
ing to the family was entirely destroyed. Mr.
trossly is an industrious blacksmith, and by long
Jars of hard labor had managed to get the com
fortable home which in one night has been laid in
rn. It is not known how he building caught
A Call for Peep a ration for Disunion.
The Richmond (Va.) Enquirer has a long arti
cle on the present aspect of the slavery discus
sion, in which it says the refusal to admit Kan
sas into the Union as a Slave State must make
Madison and Dixon's line the boundaries of
foreign States, and in view of that result ask
ing the Legislature to take steps immediately
to have the State put into a condition of mili
tary defence. The writer says there are two
hundred thousand fighting men in Virginia,
and that one tenth, or twenty thousand, ought
at once to be drafted into the militia and
carefully drilled fey the graduates at the mili
tary school. These, with railroads to move
the droops, it thinks, will make Virginia im
pregnable. The Uniou, very unfortunately,
is not easily dissolved. It has passed through
many a severe trial triumphantly heretofore,
and will do it again, despite treason, fanati
cism, ultiaism, and all other isms. It exists
in the hearts of the people the sound, con
servative, truly patriotic people who consti
tute an. overwhelming majority. 'They must
be consulted on such a monstrous question,
and the Enquirer may rest assured that when
they speak, ultraism of every kind, and in ev
ery section of the Union, will be overwhelmed.
They will truly he found a "military defence"
that is impregnable.".
The Tables Tirxei. A warrant was issued,
upon the affidavit of William Still, on Satur
day last, for the arrest of John II. Wheeler,
whose slaves lelt him in Philadelphia, some
time since. The complaint charges Wheeler
with riotously and tuniultuously seizing upon
Jane Johnson, and attempting to carry her
away, contrary to her wish, and claiming her
as a fugitive from servitude or labor, contrary
to the Act of Assembly of March 3, 1847.
Wheeler is also charged with an attempt to
kidnap the woman, and with assault and bat
tery. There seems to be some trouble in
store for the Minister, although the difficulty,
thus far, has been all on one side. It is said
he has made good his exit from the city.
Govexor of Kansas. The President has
appointed the Hon. Wilson Shannon of Ohio,
Govenor of the Territory of Kansas, in the
place of Hon. John L. Dawson, who declined
the appointment. Shannon was a member of
the last Congress, and a supporter of the" Kansas-Nebraska
bill. He formerly filled ths of
fice of Govi-nor of Ohio, and under President
Polk, was United States Minister to Mexico.
Mr. S. has accepted the position, and will pro
ceed at once to fill the vacant place.

Deafness and Ear Diseases Radically Cared.
Dr. Le Bitrs.v offers to those suffering from
Deafness his INFALLIBLE AURAL REMEDIES,
which have been successful in nearly 3,000 cases
of confirmed deafness. These remedies comprise
different courses for diseases-of the internal, mid
dle and-external ear, and bavo been pronounced
by those celebrated aurists. Drs. Cramer, of Ber
lin, Hard, and Dclan, of Paris, Curtis. Pilchcr and
Yearsly of London, as being the MOST WONDER
FUL aud EFFECTUAL ever appljei for diseases
of the internal and middle ear. Dr. LeB., WAR
RANTS A CURE in every caws where the ear is
perfect in formation. He has eighteen certificates
of cures from those who had been DEAF AND
DUMB, and whose hearing is now completely res
tored and are now enabled to learn the language.
The names of 2,700 persons who have been cured
by Dr. LeB., may he seen on application. Pa
tients, by sending a description of the case, can
have remedies sent Jo any part of the United
States. ,
In case of mucus accumulations in the Ensta
chain Tube and Tympanum, inflammation of the
mucus membrane, nervous affections, diseases of
the membrane tympani. called '-the drum," or
when the disease can be traced to the effects" of fe- j
vers or colds, tho use of quinine or mcrcuria.
medicines, gatherings in the ears in children, Ac.
this treatment STANDS PREEMINENT. When
the auditory is dry and scaly, with little or no
secretion ; when the deafness is accompanied with
noise in tho ear, like falling water, chirping of
insects, ringing of bells, rustling of leaves; contin
ual pulsations, and discharge of matter, or when
in stooping, a sensation is felt as if a rush of blood
to the head had taken place ; when the hearing
is less accute in dull, cloudy weather, or when a
cold has bceu taken, this method of treating the
disease is infallible.
Dr. Dufton is tho only Occulist in the United
States who practices the now painless, and suc
cessful method in treating all the disea.scsto which
the eye is subject here every other means
have failed to afford relief, he asks from such a
fair and impartial trial.
TESTIMONY. The undersigned practition
ers in medicine in tho city of New York, having
had frequent occasion to witness the practice of
Drs. LcBruun and Dufton. in diseases of the Ear
and Eye, laying aside all professional jealousy,
freely admit, that the course pursued by them in
treating diseases of the.-;e delicate organs, from tho
vnparallthd success attending it. is well worth the
attention of our professional brethren throughout
the United Slates, feeling assured as wc do, that
Aural Surgery has not met with that attention
which its importance demands. Their system of
treating discuses of the middle and internal Ear,
by Medical Vaport.,, particularly in chronic or
complicated cases, forms a new era in the practice
of Aural Surgery; such cases yieldiug in almost
every instance to this nejr and poicrjnl accent.
This practice fills up a void which has long been
felt by the general practitioner, enabling him to
cope successfully v:ith every cae where perfect
formation exists.
In diseases of tho Eye, they seldom require t
resort to the operation.
As skillful Aurists and Oculists, enthusiastically
devoted to their profession, we cordially recom
mend them to such as may require their aid
