THE JOTJENAI.

Wm. Mebeell, Esq., the recently elected
County Commissioner, entered upon the du

littie t!;e Board were in session, for the pur
pose of receiving the Assessors returns.
3B. Thobx, the contractor of the new court
Louse, is clearing away the rubbish of the old
voices, and making preparations for going ac
tively to work on the new building early next
pring, when the old court house will al-o be
torn down. The January and March terms of
court will be yet held in the old building.
Look Oct ! Counterfeit bank notes seem to
t-e plenty in this county-just now. We were
ihtwn the other day a $1 bill on the Bank of
Cayuga Lake, which was well calculated to
deceive scy one who is not a good judge of
.per money. We understand that counter
feit 2's and 6"s are also numerously circulated.
Thaxkcitiso Day was observed by the
g renter part of our citizens on last Thursday.
Public worship was held in the Episcopal. Lu
theran, Methodist and Presbyterian churches,
in the forenoon. A pl:ew' turkeys were dis
posed of in a proper manner, ll'e dined on
vjsiera and chicken ; side -fixins' with them,
ks a mutter of course.
Dots axd Giblm, litre is a word for you ; get
out of bid early in the morning sing, dance
ad jump til! your eyes are lairiy open ; Io
up your chores and morning wrk with a will,
abd then hie of! to school with a light heart
and clear head, and you will be happy all tho
day. The active boy makes the active man,
and ihe slow, moping, listless, lazy man was
cucc tlit- boy who grumbled when he had a les
nti to learn. Wake up then, and off to school.
A.t ''AriD Acqcaintasck," writing to us
f.-.in Curwensville, under date ol Nov. 2Sth,
nays: "Thanksgiving day was celebrated here
in a c ristian and becoming manner. Rev.
Si I II preached in tho forepart of the day in
the E iptist church to a large and attentive
ciiticregation, and Rev. Spottswood in the eve
ning in the Methodint church, to about the
mie number and character. Both the Rev.
.t-ntli-men did honor to themselves, and grati
fied and, I think, edified their audiences,
or the benefit of the public, I wish you to
call the att.nlion of the Fathers o! the Metho
dist church here, to tho unguarded condition
of the entrance platform of their pl.ice of wor
ship. That somebody has not got his head or
limbs broken from it, is a matter of surprise."
The aforesaid "fatheis" will please consider
their attention directed to the object pointed
r.t by our correspondent. A church should,
by all means, have a safe "platform."
TursiCAL Em-cation. Tho stil ject of such
a modification of study in public schools as to
blend physical education with the discipline of
the mind and memory, is receiving the atten
tion of School Directors in various towns.
Youth is a season when the enjoyment of plen
tiful physical exercise cannot be too largely
pfrnjkted. Whilst the child should be grad
ually improved in knowledge of those branch
es of school education without which no per
iiin can get along cleverly through the world,
to much prominence should not be given to
the improvement .f :he memory at the expense
of the body. The system of cramming boj-s
.and girl- with a multiplicity of subjects, which
CLtaif severe and constant study and attention,
La a tciidcricv to rob the body of its due oj
jortunities for improvement, strength and
ro'tli. A sound mind in a sound body," is
a r-isini of truth which is too little attended
1 by the pirvPta of the Iuny, pale-laced
children who attend our schools, and by their
teachers. If the Directors will adopt a proper
ryste'ii of physical education in the routine
of fchwl s-tudies, they will do a gotxl ti the
present generation, the worth of which can
scarceiy be calculated.
A Vebdast ix Teocble. The Erie Dispatch
of the llHli .Nov.. relates the following : On
Hor.dy last a tall, lank young man, fioni the
'pine woftds," of not less than voting age,
m ide his apjKjaraiice in town, and after getting
throiigu with his dinner, which he did not
-vnu to relish on account of strange faces,
r quired for the teilygraph" office. A w ick
ed wag accompanied him to a grocery store
where he t-xpressed a desire to know what it
would cst to go to -Chickcagi by telly graph."
T'erlt-rk in the grocery weighed him and
f'ier making a calculation on pajM-r with a
pencil told hini the usual price would lie $1,
l lies --me as by ratlrord, but as this was his
first trip he could go free. A "pass" was
c'.ven him and he was directed to-climb the
rM telegraph pole out f town on the western
riilroad nd get astride of the wire when he
w.,n?d gu to Chicago in a giff-y. He wanted
I.; know whether it would -hurt an ef he could
lake bin triink," when he was advised to try it
first itii..i.t any baggage and if he was suited
I e could return ir a minute or two and gt it.
He ported off as directed, and in an hour or
two afterward was seen at the Lake Shore rail
road depot making complaints that he had
been fooled," and wanted to go West on
the railroad.
Corti as There h is 'icen an indictment
against Cortina, m Brownsville, for murder
f-r the last eight yers,and at tho last term of
he court eeveral indictments were found a
gutist him for hors--stealing. Much had
'"n siid about airesting him, and hence his"
inxh ry to put the civil authority out of ex
iMeiiee. Since hi attack of the 29th of Sep
tember, ht has had the audacity to propose
that, an a consideration for his retiring, tho
'Uthnrttieg bhould pledge themselves to dis
all Indictments against nim, and that in
future no prosecution should be instituted

UOSTETTER'S STO.M ACII BITTERS.
It is a fact that, at some period, every mem
ber of the human family is subject to disease or
disturbance of the bodily functions; but. with the
aid of a good tonic and the exercise of plain com
mon sense, they may be able so to regulate the sys
tem as to secure permanent health. In order to ac
complish this desired object, the true tourse to pur
sue is certainly that which will produce a natural
state of things at the least hazard of vital strength
and life. For this purpose. Dr. Hostetter has in
troduced to Ibis country a preparation bearing his
name, which is not a new medicine, but one that
has been tried for years, giving satisfaction to all
who have used it. The flitters operate powerfully
upon the stomach, bowels, and liver, restoring them
to a healthy and vigorous action, and thus, by
tho simple process of strengthening nature, ena
ble the system to triumph over disease.
For the cure of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Nausea,
Flatulency. Loss of Appetite, or Bilious com plaints,
arising from a morbid inaction of the Stomach or
Bowels. produeingCranips.Dy.ientary.Ch lic, Chol
era Morbus, Ac, these Bitters have no equal.
Diarrhoea dj-sentery or flux, so generally con
tracted by new settlers, and caused principally by
the change of water and diet, will be speedily reg
ulated by a brief use of this preparation. Dyspep
sia, a disease which is probubly more prevalent,
in all its various forms, than any other, and the
cause of which may always be attributed to de
rangements of the digestive organs, can be cured
without fail by using 1I'STETTER"S STOMACH
BITTERS, as per directions on the bottle. For
this disease every physician will recommend Bit
ters of some kind; then why not use an article
known to be infallible f All nations have their
Bitters, as a preventive of disease aud strcngthen
er of the system in general; and among them all
there is not to be found a more healthy people
than the Germaus. from whom tLN preparation em
anated, based upon scientific experiments which
have tended to prove the value of this great pre
paration in the scale of medical science
Fkvek ami Agi:e. This trying and provoking
disease, which fixes its relentless grasp on the bo
dy of mnn. reducing him to a mere shadow in a
short time, and rendering him physically and men
tally useless, can lie driven from the body by tho
use of HOSTETTER S RENOWNED BITTER'S.
Further, none of the above-stated diseases can be
contracted, even iu exposed situations, if the Bit
ters are used as per directions. And as they uei
ther create nausea nor offend the palate, and ren
der unnecessary any change of diet or iutcrrup
tiun of ordinary pursuits, but promote sound sleep
and bealty digestion, and the complaint is remo
ved as speedily as is consistent with the produc
tion of a thorough and permanent cure.
l'ur Persons iu Advance-it Yearn, who are suffer
ing from au enfeebled consitution and infirm body,
these Bitter are invaluable as a restorative of
strength and vigor, aud need onlv be tried to bo
appreciated. And to a mother while nursing these
Litters are indispensable, especially where the mo
ther's nourishment is inadequate to the demands
of the child, consequently her strength must yield,
and hero it is where a good tonic, such as llostet
ter's Stomach Bitters, is needed to impart tempo
rary strength and vigor to the system Ladies
should by all means try this remedy for all ca
ses of debility, aijd, before o doing, should ask
their physician, who. if he is acquainted with the
virtuo of the Stomach Bitters, will recommend
their use in all cases of weakness
Caution. We caution the public against using
any of the many imitations or counterfeits, but ask
for Hostetttr'tCrlrhratfit ttoiarh Bitter, aud see
that i.ph bottle has the words -Dr. J. llostetter's
' Stomach Bitters'' blown on the side ot the bottle,

SCROFULA, OR KING'S EVIL, is a con
stitutional disease, n taint, or corruption of the
blooi, by which this fluid becomes vitiated weak,
and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades
the whole body, and may burst out in disease ou
any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks,
nor is there one which it may uot destroy. 'I he
scrofulous taint i variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living, or disordered or unhealthy
food, impure air, tilth and filthy habits, the depres
sing vices, aud. above all. by the venereal infec
tion. Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the
constitution, descending from parents - to children
unto the third and fourth genvration ;'' indeed it
seems to be the rod of Him who says. will visit
the iniquities of the fathers npon thoi r children."
It effects commence by deposition from the blood

the glands, swellings; and on the surface, erup

ders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so
that scrofulous constitutions no: only sutfer from
scrofulous complaints but they hare far less power
to withstand tbc attacks of other diseases ; conse
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders which,
aKhough not scrofulous in their nature, ares. ill
rendered fatal by this taint in the system Most
of the consumption which dcceininates the human
family has its origindirectly in this scrofulous con
tamination, and many destructive diseases of the
liver, kidneys, brain, and indeed, of al 1 the organs,
arise fp'iu or are aggravated by the same cause.

for the expurgation of this foul disorder from the

and. indeed, all Complaints arising from Vitiated
