Ths Ceops. Passing, a. few days since,
through a portion of the western part of this
county, we paid some attention to the appear
ance of the crops, which indicates that the
season is very backward. The wheat is short
&al thin, yet what there is of it may tarn ont
pretty well- The lye does not present a vig-
' rons growth, the stalk being light, and the
bead small. We, however, observed a few
field that looked well. The corn Is Tery
short, but looks hardy and vigorous, and if the
weather continues favorable, may yet mature
nnd produce a good return. - The oats and
grass crops, as a general thing, look well.
Coxc&KssiosAL Conperees. The Aroeri
eaus and Republicans of Clarion held a Conn-

sexton with the other delegates. The Ban

FocaTH or Jcly. The Ladies of Cherry

'pleasant retreat lor observing the ordinary an
nual festival of our Country's Independence.

Escape of Prisoners xn Mexico. John A.
Cnllen, of Virginia, and E. J. Wilson, of Ken
tacky, two of the passengers of the barque
Archibald Gride, seized Borne six months ago
at La Paz, Mexico, as a filibuster, have arri
ved at New Orleans. All on board the barque
were thrown into prison, and have ever since
been confined. Recently, however, six of
them made their escape, and the two referred
to allege that, after travelling a dreary jour
ney on foot of some 1500 miles through Mexi
co, they reached Vera Cruz, and there embar
ked for New Oilcans. They describe their
treatment and that of their comrades in prison
aa heartless and inhuman, and complain bitter
ly of the indifference of our government to
tbeirfate.
Arrival or Mr. Filimobe. The steamer
Atlantic arrived at Sandy Hook on the night
of the J2d, having on board ex-President Fill
more. In a letter published In the N. Y. Ex
press, received by an earlier arrival, Mr. Fill
more says, as he has been placed in nomina
tion without his desire, he will remain there,
unless his withdrawal is desired by his friends
who placed him before the public as a candi
date. ' ; "
Possiblb The New York Day Book, a Bu
chanan paper says t "The time is close at hand
wben such statesmen as Sumner and Hale will

iy ia N York and Boston as m Charleston

CLIPPI1TQS ANT SCB.IBBLING8.
. Oca respected friend "Sagacity," ia in ecs
tacies over the recent nominations for Presi
dent and indulges frequently in shouts for
Millard Fremont
AxornER Fire occurred at Brookville, Jef
ferson connty.jon the IGth, by which the steam
saw mill and the water mill of L. II. Litch &
Co., were destroyed, involving a loss of about
$10,000.
While the Cincinnati convention was in ses
sion, some Iocofocos at Lebanon made bets on
the final result, one of which was a day's wa
ges. . The Buchanan man having won, the
Picrceite tendered him "ten cents," alleging
that that was Eucbanan wages. "
A compaxy of 35 young men, mostly me
chanics, has been formed at Dayton, O., who
intend to st3rt forthwith for Kansas, via Iowa
and Nebraska. Tho citizens have contribu
ted about $5,000 to pay their expenses.
They go out as actual settlers.
B&eckenridoe, the Locofoco candidate for
Vice President, when in Congress two years
ago, sent a challenge to Mr. Cutting, of New
York, to fight a duel. We shall see how those
locos who had such a horror of supporting tho
"duellist Clay," will swallow this fact.
James J. Strang, a Mormon leader, was shot
at Beaver Island on the 16th, by two of his for
mer followers. He received three balls in the
body and a severe blow from a pistol on the
head. Strang was lying in a very critical con
dition. The assassins had been arrested.
Another attempt will be made shortly ,to lay
a chain cable for a telegraph across the Atlan
tic. The cable will be 2400 miles long, and two
steamers, each with 1200 miles of cable, will
meet midway between Ireland and NewFound
land, unito the cables, and proceed in opposite
directions to laud.
Central America. From Nicaragua we
learn that General Walker had removed his
headquarters to Leon. There was some sick
ness among the troops. It was rumored that
a revolution had broken out at Costa Ilica dur
ing Mora's absence, which it is said was head
ed by an influential family named Castro.
Tenant Houses. An Anglo-French compa
ny is putting up a large number of model ten
ant houses in the Champs Elysees in Paris. A
peculiarity of the scheme is that the tenant,
after occupying the same house for a period of
ten, twentjr, or thirty years, according to the
worth of it, and regularly paying his annual
rent, will own the house in fee.
Mexico. Intelligence fromMexico indicates
that much alarm is felt by the government res
pecting the Spanish expedition, and foreshad
ows an application for the protection of the
United States. Southern Members of Congress
suggest the granting of protection on the con
dition of a cession to us of the Tehuantcpec
route, with the circumjacent territory.
Bills of indictment have been found against
the Directors of the Camden and Philadelphia
Ferry Company, charging them with man
slaughter in negligently equipping the steam
boat New Jersey, bnrnt in March,thereby caus-
iug death ; also with misdemeanor in neglect
ing the same, they being carriers of passen
gers. The buperinteuaent, Andrew a. t ra
zee, is also indicted in similar bills.
An Impotent Threat. Tho recusant Whig,
Thomas Butler King, aPennsylvauian by birth,
but a Georgian by residence, told the Buchan
an ratificators in New York that the South
would be with them throughout tho glorious
contest. He also added : ".? ny man who does
not go with the South in this contest will be set
down as desiring the dissolution of the Union."
This then is a war waged for the South.
Who said "sectional tabties."
The Hoilidaysburg Standard states that Da
vis shot Johnston with a musket, that belong
ed to Capt. Walls, which he had aboard of a
Canal boat, and loaded for the purpose of
thooting muskrats. It was one of an old con
demned lot sold by the State at Harrisburg
some five or six years ago. As a singular co
incidence, it is stated that Hutchison shot Ed
monson with a musket out of the same lot,
and within but a lew feet from where Davis
shot Johnston.
Nebuchadnezzar. It is stated In the Lon
don Atlas, that Colonel Rawlinson has lately
discovered in a state of perfect preservation,
what is believed to be the mummy of Nebu
chadnezzar. The face of the rebellious mon
arch of Babylon, covered by one of those gold
masks usually found inAssyrian tombs, is des
cribed as very handsome the forehead high
and commanding, the features marked and
regular. A post mortem examination has been
made and the stomach found full of grass.
A Fracd. A man has been arrested in New
York, charged with having attempted to de
fraud an aged gentleman, residing on Long Is
land, of property valued at $110,000. It is
stated that the offender induced the old man
to visit his house, and while there, ho drugged
him with liquor from day to day for 4 weeks,
and then induced him to sign a power of at
torney, by which his property was to have
been sold. Beforo the sale took place, the
old man rallied, and the accused was arrested
and held to bail.
HORRID ISHCMASITT OF A StEP-MOTOER. A
recent trial before the Hardin (Ky., County
Court has developed a systematic course of
cruelty by a Mrs. Hubbard, toward her step
daughter, a girl of thirteen years, tbatexceeds
anything of which we have ever read. It ap
pears that for two years past, the young girl
has been subject to constant dyspepsia, aud to
occasional convulsions, with the roost excru
ciating pains in her stomach. Becently she
vomited up thirty-three pins of various sizes,
and five needles issued from her side. This
led to an investigation, in the course of which
the girl stated that her mother, assisted by
another woman, had at different intervals
thrown her down and compelled her to swal
low pins and needles. Since the girl's stomach
has been relieved of the pins her general health
is rapidly improving.

A HUMAN LIFE SAVED !
Dowagiac, Mich., March 11, 1850.
J. A. RHODES, Esq : Dear Sir Aa I took your
meJicine to sell on consignment, ,:no cure no pay,"
I take pleasure in stating its e fleets as reported to
me by three brothers who live in this place, and
their 'testimony is a fair specimen of all I have re
ooived: W. S. Conklin told me "I had taken nine bot
tles of Christie'sAguo Balsa-u, and continually run
down while using it until my lungs and liver were
Congested to that degree that blood discharged
from hit mouth aud bowels, so that all thought it
impossible for me to !: throarh ae?hr
TLi izzioii did. all tsey could for me, but tho't
I must die. Nothing did me any food until I got
Rhode's Fever and Ague Cure, which at once re
lieved me of the distress and nausea at my stomach
and pain in my head and bowels, and produced a
permanent cure iu a short t:mo.
II. M. Conklin says: "I had been taking medi
cine of as good a doctor as we have in our county,
and taken any quantity of quinine and specifics
without any good result, from 25th August to l?th
December. But seeing how nicely it operated on
my brother, I got a bottle of Rhodes' Fever and A
gue Cure, which effected a permanent cure by us
ing two-thirds of a bottle.1'
S. M. Conklin was not here, but both the other
brothers say his case was the same as II. M's. I
sold the medicine to both the same day, and the
cure was as speedy from the same small quantity,
and I might so specify. Y'ours with respect,
A. HUNTINGTON.
The above speaks for itself. Gooa proof as it is,
it is of no better tenor than the vast number of like
certificates I have already published, and the still
greater amount tha t continually pouring in to tne.
One thing more. Last year I had occasion to cau
tion the public in these words: "Inoticcone firm
who have tai'en one o f my general circulars, sttt
stitut'.d the name of their nostrum for my medi
cine, and then with brazen impudence end their
pamphlet with the exdamatinn, -Iyct the proprietor
of any other medicine say as much if he daret'ty-c
Now I take pleasure in saying that the caution
referred to the same '-Dr. Christie's Aguo Balsam"
that is mentioned in the above certificate.
There are several other industrious peoplo who
are applying to their poisonous trash all that I
publish about my Fever and Ague Cure, or Anti
dote t' Malaria, except the certificates of cures,
and the certificate of the celebrated Chemist, Dr
James R. Chilton, of N. Y., in favor of Its perfect
ly harmless character, which is attached to every
bottle. These will always serve to distinguish my
medicine from imitations. JAS. A. RHODES,

A MARVELLOUS REMEDY"
FOR A MARVELLOUS AGE! !
HOLLOWAV'S OlflTfflEBT.
THE GRAND EXTERNAL REMEDY.
BY tho aid cf a microscope, we see millions of
little openings on the surface of our bodies.
Through these this Ointment, when rubbed on the
skin, is carried to any organ or inward part. Dis
eases of the Kiducys, disorders of the Liver, affec
tions of the Heart, inflammation of the Lungs,
Asthmas, Coughs and Colds, are by its means ef
fectually cured. Every housewife knows that salt
passes freely through bone or meat of any thick
ness. This healing Ointment far more readily
penetrates through any bone or fleshy part of the
living body, curing the most dangerous inward
complaints, that cannot be reached by other means.
ERYSIPELAS. SALT RHEUM AND SCORBUTIC
HUMORS.
No remedy has ever done so much for the cure
of diseases of the skin, whatever form they may
assume, aa this Ointment. No case of Salt Rheum,
Scurvy, Sore Heads, Scrofula or Erysipelas, can
long withstand its influence. The inventor haa
travelled over many parts of the globe, visiting
the principal hospitals, dispensing this Ointment,
giving advice as to its application, and bai thus
been the means of restoring countless numbers to
health.
SORE LEGS, SORE BREASTS, WOUNDS AND
ULCERS.
Soma of the most scientifio surgeons now raly
solely on the use of this wonderful Ointment, when
having to eope with the worst cases of sores, ttloers,
wounds, glandular swellings, and tumors. Profes
sor Hollo way has, by command of the Allied gov
ernments, dispatched to the hospitals of the East,
large shipments of this Ointment, to be used un
der the direction of tha Medical staff, in the worst
cases of wounds. It will cure any ulcer, glandu
lar swelling, stiffness or contraction of the joints,
even of 20 years' standing.
PILES AND FISTULAS.
These and other similar distressing complaints
can be effectually eared if the Ointment b well
rubbed in over the parts affected, and by otherwise
following the printed directions around each pot.
Both the Ointment and the Pills should bt used
in the following cases :
Bunions, Mercurial Eruptions, Swelled Glands,
Burns, Chapped Hands, Stiff Joints,
Chilblains, Rheumatism, . Ulcers.
Fistulas, Salt Rheum, Venerial Sorea,
Gout, Skin Diseases, ' Sore Legs,
Lumbago, Wounds of all kinds, Scalds,
Piles. Fore Breasts. Sprains,
Scalds, - Sorea ef all kinds. Sore Throat.
