EREAXS AT EQUADOR.
BBISBIX. 1
oroing is cloudless,
- ol, fragrant and bracing,
. cihlmborazo's top, shrondless,
Shoots high in the air ;
The Jaguar'a laid down
In his cold, stony lair ;
The eagle's wing 's tracing
The ether vaults fair.
The hour scarce yet seven ;
Broad, ronnd and clear rising the sun ;
Earth borrows the livery of heaven,
And her majesty's splendor puts on.
A Short Ob-atio fob the Fourth of Je
ll for Unprepared Orators. A western
orator being "unexpectedly, called upon" at a
Fourth of July dinner, delivered himself as
follows:
Feller Citizens, The great bird of Ameri
can liberty's flewed aloft, and soarin' upon the
wiDgs of the wind, is now hoverin' high o'er
tfce cloud-capped summits of the Kocky Moan
tains, and when he shall have penetrated the
unknown regions of unlimited space, aud then
shall have duv downward, lit on d :ddy's wood
pile, I shall be led to exclaim, In the grand,
the terrific, the sublime language of Paul, the
Apostle, in his celebrated epistle to the Abo
rigines "root, little pig, or die !'
- A Western man, rather a novice in European
travel, once Tisited Powers' studio atFlorence,
and after gazing npon its array of busts and
figures a while, inquired the price of a statute,
which caught his fancy ; npon being told $3000,
he gave a low whistle, raised his eyebrows,
buttoned up his pockets, and strided away, ex
claiming sculptur's riz !"
It is a singular fact, that women cannot look
from a precipice of any magnitude without be
coming instantly dizzy. But what is still more
singular the dizziness departs the very mo
ment somebody puts bis arm around her waist
to keep her from falling. Queer, is it not ?
The "Buckeye Blacksmith" is out for Wil
mot, and we see it stated that he intends
stamping the State.

Bronchial afiections,Conghs, Colds, Pleurisy, Bron

and lanes, 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 success. It is a combination of expecto
rant remedies, simple in their character and used
by every educated physician. It is easily taken,

TO THOSE WHO WANT FARMS.
A FARM WITHIN THE 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 so mo
10,000. The climate is perfectly healthy, and the
terrible plague of tbe west fever is unknown. It
also has an abundance of the best quality of Coal
and Iron. Tbe price to buy it out is from $3 to
S20 per acre, payable in instalments, to be located
at the time of purchasing, or a share-of 25 acres
entitling to locate the same for S-HI0, payabln SO
per month or 121 acres payable SI per month.
Discount for every sum of $100 and under, paid in
advance, a discount of & per eent. will be allowed,
and for over $100 a discount ot 10 per cent. ;
In considering the advantages of emigrating to
this locality the following are presented :
First The soil is a rich limestone, capable of
raising the heaviest crops, owing to which this set
tlement has attained'its present great prosperity.
Second 1 1 is the centre of the great N orth West
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 tbe limestone. This report together with
mars will be furnished to inquirers.
1-otirth Three railroads are laid out through
this property. The Sunbury and Erie Railroad
gives us a market for our coal 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 oar 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 us with the
West. - . . -
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
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 the West, among perhaps intollerant
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, gristmills, and everything de
sired. There is a ch market at hand. Tbe 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
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, tbe payments are such that they
ean 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 ean be made
