Accidext. On Thursday last, Rev.William
McCuIlough had his right arm rather serious
ly injured, whilst he was engaged in hauling
stone. One of the front wheels of the wagon
morning in contact with a log, Mr. M. took
hold of it, lor the purpose of assisting the
horses in pulling the wheel over the log. One
horse starting a little sooner titan the other,
r d Mr. M. having taken hold on the inside.
Lis arm was caught between the wheel and the
wngon-bed, and bruised very badly.
CAorn Again. Ou last Friday, James Cur
ly was iedgei in the county prison, on a charge
of setting a barn op fire in Karthaus towu
:.i, a short time since. Curly is one of the
prisoners who escaped from the custody of
the SheriJ", some time last fall. lie was tried,
coi.ri jied and sentenced to nine months im
prisonment in the County jail, at the last Au
gutt Conrt, for cutting loose a raft, but es
caped however, a short time after he was im
prisoned. Going tp. Passing down town a day or two
fiince, we observed that the workmen were en
gaged in laying the foundation of the Xew
Meeting Douse, which our Baptist friends have
had in contemplation of erecting for some
time. It is to be a brick cditice. We w ish
thtia snccess in the enterprise in which they
are engaged, and hope they may be enabled
to complete their building without delay.
Pocket Picked. Col. John Patchin, of
Eurnside township, this county, had his pocket
picked of $60, whilst getting shaved in a bar
ter shop in Philadelphia, on last Monday eve
lung. There was no other person in the shop
at that time, and whilst one fellow was shaving
his face, it is supposed the other was shaving
Ills pocket.
Camp Meeting. We have been requested
to state, that the members of the Methodist
persuasion will hold a Camp Meeting, two and
u. half miles west of Luthersburg, in this coun
ty. " The meeting will commence on Thurs
day next.
We observe that an addition is being built
to the Mansion House, which will enlarge it
Tery considerably.
Tits Auctio SEARCrt Acaix. The self
eacriflcing devotion of Lady Franklin has been
at length again successful, and a new expedi
tion is nearly ready to buffet the storms and
Ircast the ice-drift of the stern and scowling
regions of the pole. The London Times took
frong grounds against the encouragement by
Government of this new expedition, and that
excellent monthly, Household Words, as strong
on the other side. But the wife has at length
prevailed, and a screw steam yacht called the
Fox, rchooner-rigged and built fur the late
Richard Sutton, is now ready for the perilous
search. This vessel is to be strengthened for
tho service she is to enter upon, and at once
got ready for sea. She sails about the last of
June, and will be commanded by C;tpt. Mc
Clintock of the Royal Navy, who has already
conducted one expedition in search of Sir
John Franklin. It is, we thiuk, quite idle to
appose that there will be any direct fruit of
fllifl cruise, or, in other words, that she will
Yr find so much as a bone of the lost Sir
John Franklin. Lady Franklin appears to
have found new encouragement in the report
of Dr. Kane, who r-ruarks upon the almost in
vincible proclivity of himself and men tosiiik
Into the status of the Esquimaux, to live on
VTuLber, and dress and hybernate" as they do.
The inference is that by so doing their lives
might have been prolonged, and she acts on
the hope that Sir John has become an Esqui
maux in habit, and thus perhaps has lengthen
ed out his existence ; or if not he, probably
some one or more of h s 138 men.
' rCf The St. Louis Democrats Quinda Cor

MHO THOSE WHO WANT FARMS
A A FARM WITHIN THE REACH OF
EVERY MAN.
THE R IDG WAY FARM COMPANY has made ar
rangements by which all who desire to settle or
purchase a home can do so. The farms consist of
the best limestone soil of the most superior quality
for farming, in a rapidly improving place, into
which an extensive emigration is now pouring.
The property is located in Elk County. Pennsylva
nia, in the midst of a thriving population of some
10,000. Tho climate is perfectly healthy, and the
terrible plague of the west fever is unknown. It
also has an abundance of the best quality ot Coal
and Iron. The price to buy it out is from S3 to
&0 per acre, payable in instalments, to be locatea
at the time of purchasing, or a share of 25 acres
entitling to locate the same tor S-WO, payaoin t
per month or 12$ acres payable 54 per month.
Discount for every sum ot 5I00and under, paid in
advance, a discount of 5 per cent, will be allowed,
and for over 5100 a discount ot 10 per cent.
In considering the advantages of emigrating to
this Iocalitv tho following are presented :
Firt The soil is a rich limestone, capable of
raising the heaviest crops, owing to which this set
tlement has attained its present great prosperity.
SeroiiJ It is the centre of the great North West
Coal Basin, and is destined soon to become one of
tho greatest business places in tho State. It will
supply the great Lake market, according to popu
lation and travel the greatest in the Union.) It
has five workable veines of the best Bituminous
Coal, amounting in the aggregate to over 22 feet,
which makes 22.000 tons of coal under each acre.
This will make the land of inestimable valuo.
Third The eminent state geologist Dr. Chas.
T. Jackson of Boston, has made a geological sur
vey of the land, and analysed the coal, the iron
ore and the limestone. This report togethcrwith
maps will be furnished to inquirers.
Fourth Three railroads are laid ont through
this property. The Sunbury and Erie Railroad
gives us a market forourcoal to the Lakes it runs
from Erie to Philadelphia. A large part of this
road has been finished, and is now in running or
der. A heavy force is now working from Erie to
wards our land in the western direction, the means
for the completion of which has been raised it
will soon be finished. The Allegheny Valley Rain
road connects us with New xoik, Loston and fitts
burg. Tho Venango Road connects us with the
We.t.
There are already good Turnpike roads running
through the property, various other roads have
been opened to accommodate the emigration and
settlement, which has already taken place.
There is no opportunity equal to it now offered
to the man who wants to provide himself a home
iu an easy way, and make a settlement where ho
can live in prosperity ami independence in a cli
mate PERFECTLY HEALTHY.
No case of fever ever having been known to oc
cur in this settlement. It is not like going to tho
backwoods of the West, among perhaps intollernnt
people, where there is no society, churches, or
schools, where the price of land is high, and where
the emigrant, after being used to the healthiest
climate in the world, has to endure sickness and
pain, and perhaps ruins his health and that of his
family. But here is a thriving settlement having
three towns, containing churches, schools, hotels,
stores, saw mills, grist mills, and everything de
sired. There is a cash market at hand. The lum
ber trade last year amounted to over two hundred
million feet of lumber. In a short time, owing to
the coal, it will still become moro valuable, as a
wurabcr of iron works andmanufactorics will soon
be started ; they are at present starting them ex
tensively at Warren. Even for those who do not
wish to go there, the payments are such that they
can easily buy a farm to save their rising families
from want in the future, or to gain a competence
by the riso which will take place in the value of
lands By an ontlay scarcely missed, a substan
tial provision can be made -'

Bronchial affections.Coughs, Colds. Plenrisy, Bron
chitis, Asthma, and all other diseases of the throat
and luugs, except Consumption. This invaluable
remedy is no quack nostrum, but is prepared from
the recipe of a regular physician, who during a
practice of twenty-five years, used it-with unpar
alleled suceess. It is a combination of expecto
rant remedies, simple in their character and used
by every educated physician. It is easily taken,
produces no nausea or other disagreeable effects,
and gives almost immediute relief. In this ever
changing climate, where coughs and colds so fre
quently end in consumption and death, uo family
should be without this certain i tr.E.
It would bo easy to follow in the wakcof the ven
ders of patent medicine, and multiply certificates
got up for the occasion, of miraculous cures, but no
such .adventitious aid is necessary in introducing
this preparation to the public. Its real value, and
never failing success, in accomplishing all promis
ed for it. cannot but give it a wide circulation, and
recommend it to all those afflicted with diseases for
which it is a remedy. Price 371 CenU per bottle
