-Jistismx-" I-adies. An incident which
f jcuiTed on the Jew York Railroad, some
months since, forcibly illustrated the "power
of politeness." The seats were all f ull3e3ccept
one which was occupied by rongh looking,
but honest Irishman, and at one of the stations,
a couple of evidently well bred intelligent
joung ladles came in to procure seats, but
seeing no t scant ones, were about to go into a
back car, when Patrick rose hastily, and offered
them his seat, with evident pleasure.
"But you will hare no seat for yourself," re
sponded one of the young ladies with a smile,
hesitating, with true politeness, as to accept
ing it.
"Niver ye mind that," said the Hibernian,
"yer welcome to't. I'd ride upon the cow
catcher till New York, any time, for a smil
from such jinilemanJy ladies!' and rcti-eatcd
Lastly into the nest car, amid tl cheers of
those who" had witnessed the incident.
If yoa want to find out what a woman is,
don't look at bet in a ball room, in the saloon,
the streets and other public places, but at
home and early in the day, about the time
she is what she is, not what before she seemed.
There is as much difference between them, in
the two places and time as between the tooth
ache aud the sweetest kiss ever got up. Gen
tlemen at all skeptical on this point should en
deavor to clear the matter up.
"When Dr. Johnson courted Mrs. Porter,
whom he afterwards married, lie told her "that
he was of mean extraction ; that he had no
money, and that he had an uncle hanged !"
The lady, by way of reducing herself to an
equality with the doctor, replied, "that she
had ho more money than himself, and that,
though she had not a relation hanged, she had
fifty who deserved hanging."
In Wesley, Ark., a fourteen year old boy,
who had gone to drive the cows from pasture,
taking with him a gun loaded for partridges,
discovered three wolves among the herd, and
secreting himself behind a stump, killed the
largest one,Jand scared off the other two ; the
wolf killed measured over six feet ii length.

Bronchial afi"ections,Coughs, Colds, Pleurisy, Bron

remedy is no quack nostrum, but is prepared from
the recipe of a regular physician, who during a
practice of twenty-five years, nsed it with unpar
alleled success. 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 cver
cbanging climate, where coughs and colds so fre

should bo without this certain rrRE.
It would be easy to follow in the wake of the ven

such adventitious aid is necessary in introducing
this preparation to the public. Its real value, and
never failing success, in accomplishing all promis

riH THOSE WHO WANT FARMS.
JL A FARM WITHIN TIIE REACH OF
EVERY MAN.
THE RIDGWAY 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 somo
10.000. The climate is perfectly hoalthy, and the
terrible plague of the west fever is unknown. It
also has an abundance of the best quality of Coal
and Iron. The price to buy it out is from S3 to
S20 per acre, payable in instalments, to he located
at the time of purchasing, or a share of 25 acres
entitling to locate the same for SSOO, payabln $6
per month or 12i.acres payable SI per month.
Discount for every sum of S100 and under, paid in
advance, a discount of 5 per cent, will be allowed,
and for over ?100 a discount of 10 per cent.
In considering the advantages of emigrating to
this locality the following are presented:
First The soil is a rich limestone, capablo of
raising the heaviest crops, owing to which this set
tlement has attained its present great prosperity.
Second It is the centre of the great North AVest
Coal Basin, and is destined soon to become one of
the greatest business places in the 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 value.
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 together with
maps will be furnished to inquirers.
Fourth Three railroads are laid out through
this property. The Suubury and Eric Railroad
gives us a market for our coal to the Lakes it runs
from Eric 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 Rail
road connects us with New York, Boston and Pitts
burg. The Venango Road connects as with the
Wst.
There are already good Turnpike roads running
through the property, various other roads have
been opened to accommodate tho 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
in an easy way, and make a settlement where he
can live in prosperity and independence in a cli
mate PERFECTLY HEALTHY.
No case of fever ever having been known to oe
cur in this settlement. It is not like going to the
backwoods of tho West, among perhaps intwllerant
people, where there is no soeicty, 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 enduro sickness and
pain, and perhaps ruins bis 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 more valuable, as a
number of iron works and manufactories 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 rise which will take place in the value of
lands By an ontlay scarcely missed, a substan
tial provision can be made
