The sub ject of obtaining a light that combines econ omy with brilliancy, is one that lias engaged J lie attention of the public for many years. A great number of experiments have been made, ami great improvements have been effected. But, after trying the various articles ot oils, burning fluids, &e., we believe we keep strict ly within the bounds of truth, when we say thst the new article of Kerosene or Coal Oil surpasses in economy every other article yet prepared, and in brilliancy of flame is surpas sed only by gas. The saving that is effected by the burning, is estimated at 50 per centum, this estimate being founded on various and continued tests, and as to the beauty and safe ty of the light, a single trial will satisfy any person of that fact. A lamp, well adapted for the use of this oil, lias been patented, and combines every juality that could be desired beauty, simplicity and safety. o accci dent can occur from explosion if properly used, there will be comparatively little or no .smoke it is easily trimmed, and readily reg ulated to give as much or as little light as may be desired. We have now one of theso beau tiful iitnl economical lamps in use in our of fice, where any one desirous of seeing it burn ing, can do so any evening and judge for themselves. These lamps are kept for sale by Merrell & Carter, on Second street, Clearfield, I'ii. They also keep constantly on hand the coal oil, as well as wicks, tubes, &c, and are prepared to change ordinary oil and fluid lamps into coal oil lamps. Persons wishing to supply tlicmselves with this cheap and bril liant light should call upon Messrs. Merrell Jc Carter without delay. Insi rk yovr Hordes against Thieves. S. A. Gibson, of Lock Haven, is the General A gent lor the Fanners' Mutual Horse Thief De tecting and Insuaance Co., of York, York co., I.' This Company is established by some of tlw most wealthy f.irnters of. York county, for the better security of horses iigainst thieves, with a capital of $330,000 00, and insure on the following terms : 3 horses for 5 years $3, and -o cents lor each additional horse. Each horse insured is branded by the agent with the Company's mark, letter C Iu cane a horse thos marked and insured is stolen, the Compa ny is bound to search out the horse and return him to the owner, or pay hi full value in cash, within sixty days from the time he was stolen. This is the only Company of the kiud now es tablished in Pennsylvania, and it is believed that uo one who lias any regard fur the safety of his property will hesitate for one moment to become a member of this institution. We read daily accounts of valuable hor3es being stolen in all parts of the State, and you know not what liour j our stable or field may be visi ted by one of theso midnight robbers, and thus deprived of your valuable animaLs, to whom will you look lor redress if not insured ? 3Ir.

May 2d. 1858. 4 VER'S SARSAPARILLA, a compound remedy, in which we have labored to produce the most effectual alterative that can be made. It i3 a concentrated extract of Para Sarssparilla, so combined with other substances of still greater al terative power as to afford an effective antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla is reputed to cure. It is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one which will accomplish their cure must prove of immense service to this large class of our afflicted fcllowcitizens. How completely thiscoinpound will do it has been proven by experiment on many of the worst cases to be found of thefollowingcompl.iints: Scrofula and Scrofulous complaints, Eruptions and Eruptive Diseases, Ulcers. Pimples, Blotches. Tumors. Salt Bbeum, Scald Head, Syphilis and Syphilitic affections, Mercurial Disease, Dropsy, Neuralgia or Tic Douloureux, Debility, Dyspepsia and Indigestion. Erysipelas, .Rose or St. Antho ny's Fire, and indeed the whole class of com plaints arising from Impurity of the Blood. This compound will be found a great promoter of health, when taken in the spring, to expel the foul humors which foster in the blood at that sea son of the year. By the timely expulsion of them many rankling disorders are nipped in the bud Multitudes can. by the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous 8res. through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of the body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitia ted blood whenever you find its impurities burst ing through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sorts; cleanse it whon you find it is obstructed and slug gish in tho veins; cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, ond live longer, for cleansing the-blood. Keep the body healthy, and all is well; but with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and tho great machinery of life is disordered or altogether overthrown. Sarsaparilla has. and deserves much, the repu tation, of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been egrcgiously deceived by prepara tions of it, partly because the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for it., but more because many preparations, pretending to be ooncentrrted extracts of it, contain but littlo of tho virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing else. During late years the publis have been misled by large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Ex tract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Sarsaparilla. but often no cu rative properties whatever. Hcnce.bitterand pain ful disappointment has followed the use of the va rious extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood the mar ket, until the name itself is justly despised, and hasbecomesynonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. And we think we have good ground for believing it has virtues which are irrefutable by the ordinary ran of the diseases it is intendod to cure. In order to secure their complete cradica. tion from the system, the remedy should be judi. ciously taken according to directions on the bottle. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer Co.. Lowell, Mass.
