Thanks. We tender our thanks to otir
Yriend Leitzinger, for a beautiful pipe repre
senting the head of a Greek warrior. By tho
'way, Fred is one of lhe Best workmen in his
'line, within one knowledge ; and well deserves
the patronage of the public. Give him a call.
Th Sidewalks. In their present condition
war sidewalks arp rather dangerous. Persons
arc liable to .fall and t break a limb Is there
not an ordinance in force requiring persons to
remove, the sncw off them within a specified
time Is it not 'the duty of the Borough
Fathers to see that it is done 1 ;.
Success of . the Bucktails. The reason
given by some persons for the brilliant suc
cess of the Bucktails at the battle of Draines
viUo is, that they canicd a banner at the head
-of:, their regiment with the following beauti
ful inscription upon its folds : "Mossop sells
the cheapest goods in the. county buy all
your goods at MossopV" ,
A Accidf.t. On Wednesday, tho 23th of
' December," Alexander Livingston of Bradford
-township, met with a rather serious accident.
He was engaged in hauling timber on the hill
side, and whilst on the lower side of the sled
the horses started suddenly, and before ho
could get out of the way tho timber stick
caught his leg crushing it badly immediately
above the ankle. At last accounts he was do
ing as well as could be expected.
Cure for Frosted Feet. It is said that
frosted feet can bo speedily and certainly cured
by being bathed and well rubbed with kerosene
"',ur ,er mgni oeioro retiring to

in pronouncing it an etlectual . cure, which, if
they are correct, is an easy and cheap mode
of getting rid of a very sore and troublesome
ntniction. those who have tried it saythat
the feet should bo warmed by a hot stove du
ring and, after the application of the oil, and
. it will certainly effect a speedy cure. " Persons
suffering from tho pain of frosted feet wiil no
doubt do well in giving it a trial, for it is
surely a very cheap' ointment and4 one which
is very easily applied, r

the direction of Centreville. ' We took up our
position (i. e. 1st Brigade,) near "Difficult
Creek Bridge," and formed into line of battle
and quietly awaited events. At 12 o'clock
we heard the booming of cannon in the direc-
tron of Drainsville, and shortly after the filing
or musketry. At first tho firing was regular,
but soon became rapid and irregular. Gen.
Keynolds ordered us forward, and just as we rise up abruptly into hills those on the Vir

Having such an illustrious model, I may most
certainly bo pardoned if I should follow his
example in this one papticulaiy and if an op
portunity offered! might equal his zeal in
reaching Washington, as ho did about the
close of the Bull Run fight, taking as I went
flying notes," So much lor an apology.
Upon reaching Washington I was surprised
to see it so changed m appearance, from what
it had been at the time of a former visit some
three years since. It is now full, I might
saieiy say craraea. r,very available place oi

business is occupied, and. the late meeting of "wherein to rest the weary traveller' Ex
Congress has helped to increase the already cepting a church ot some pretentions, the tav-
largo amount of business transacted here,
Hesides those having business with the milita-
ry departments and camps in the vicinity, a
large number are as usual attending the ses
sion of Congress, either having business to
transact, or trying to have some. ,
After some delay I procured a pass, permit
ting me to pass over"the "Chain Bridge" to
the camps in Virginia, of ; which permission I
availed myself immediately. Ou reaching
Georgetown, with carpet bag in hand, I start
ed up the river road, from which I could see
three large Forts situated upon the high
ground that rises abruptly from the opposite
shore of the Potomac, which -1 am informed,
command the city of Washington, Alexandria
and the ri ver below, as w ell as the country in
the roar. There is also a small Redout on the
ueorgetown side of tho river, mounted with
two immense rifled guns, that could drop
shells into any of the three above mentioned
forts, if they unfortunately should ever fall
into the hands of an enemy, while, at the same
time, they are ranged to cover the road pass
ing along the river, and would materially in
terfera with tho approach ot a hostile force
lrom that direction.
Alter passing the unfinished Basins of the
Washington water works, I saw nothing of
note until I arrived at" the "Chain Bridge,"
... i. : v. r j i i . . .1
.... x ivunu n, uo a woouen structure, and
very good of its kind but no chain bridge for
ail that. Whilst revolving the anomaly in my
miud, I approached the sentinel stationed at
"aR right, pass on."... But as I had come "to
learn what I could learn," I took this as a fa
vorable opportuuity to satisfy my curiosity
concerning the bridge and its inappropriate
name. He informed inc that the former
bridge had .been a "chain bridge,' but for
some cause it had fallen down and been re
placed by tho present wooden structure, and
then thanking him for his kindness, I started
for other sido of the river. I found the
bridge a good one and high above the water.
The river is very wide but shallow at this
Pint, except near the Virginia side, w here
main stream flow7s and looks deep-being
ver7 rough and rapid, full of rocks,'(artd Bgly
rocks at that). I am told by some of our men
tnat st very much resembles Moshannon Falls
during high water. The banks on both sides
hill rises a short disttnee back, equaling that
of the other side. When about two thirds of
the way over the bridge, I came to a place that
had been fortified by strong planks sheathed
w ith boiler-iron leaving Just sufficient space
for wagons to pass. This I nnderstood had
been done as a means of defense, previous to
the crossing of our forces.
On reaching the Virginia side I stopped and
looked back and discovered that the bridge
was covered by two batteries placed on tho
Maryland hill. One is directly in line with
the bridge, and the other some distance above
bo that if they failed to prevent troops from
entering the bridge, they could soon tear it to
pieces. It caused me almost to shudder at
the thought of what would be the fate of the
troops upon whom those iron monsters should
open their, mouths. An, old stone building
shows unmistakable evidence that those who
man the gunsare good marksmen, it having
been used as a target for practice.'
A ravine at this point opens a way for tho
road that connects the bridge with the country
back from the river. The main road from
this point is called the Leesburg turnpike;
and divers roads,as you travel towards Drains-
ville, branch ofl to Munson'a liill, Falls
church, Lewinsville, and nuruerous other pla
the names of which I did not learn. ,Af-
ascending the bill for some distance I pass
on tho left of the road, a large fort ioto
which I did not train admittance, my pass not
being sufficient for that. I- asked the sentry
the gate the name of tho fort, but he did
understand me being a German and on
bearing an, officer giving some commands in
German, I concluded that it must bo a Ger-
man" fort, and I passed on. From the high
ground ne?r this fort can be soea with ttio aid I
ton) Fort Pennsylvania, situate at Tenna'lly-
town being one of those built by the Reserve
corps of-Pennsylvania, and is said to be well
done. . .. The m-jmbers of , the ' Washington
Cadets'? assured me that they had spent many
a hard days labor on it, as they also did at two
others about two miles distant from it. Vl was
told that the fort was about .fou miles dis-
tant. : After satisfying' my curiosity in that
directionas far as I could, I again resumed
my journey to camp Pierpont. 1
I found the country what may properly be
called rolling; and before the war. must have
been most beautiful. The land is very good,
covered with large farms, which seem to have
been in a good state of cultivation, but now
laid desolate by the occupation of two armies,
showing beyond contradiction the fearlulprice
that Virginia is paying for her folly in taking
up arms against her Government. Where
tural dfstrict, the traveler finds lands laid
waste, fences, destroyed, forests cut down,
fields dug up in making fortifications and rifle
pits, the soil trampled up by the feet of march
ing men yet all this shows but little of the
real amount of loss and misery that Virginia
has fallen -heir to.
Langley, the Head Quarters of Gen. McCall,
is a small village situated ou a hill, and con
tains in all about a dozen houses. 'The build-
ing occupied by the General, was formerly a
tavern of rather inviting appearance. It is on
the left of tho road, and is placed upon a hand-
some knoll, covered by a grove of forest trees,
and looks to have been a pleasant place
ern house is the only one of any note in the
village. From the church, which is on an-
other knoll nearly opposite, floats a red flair.
which indicates that it is used as a hospital.
'
There is also a smaller building that is used
for the same purpose. Several of the small
buildings at Langley are used by venders of
oysters and sundry commodities for the use of
soldiers, and others are used as deposits for
Quarlermater and Commissary stores.
At this point the Lewinsville road branches
off to the left 5 to the right of which road all
of the Reserve except the Cavalry Regiment
is encamped. The cavalry is immediately be
hind Gen. McUall's head quarters, and is com
posed of a fine body of men who have already
shown that they are ready and willing to do
battle against the enemies of their countrv.
Their Colonel is said to be a brave man, and
was foremost - in the fight near. Drainsville.
lhe men have great confidence in him and
would follow., him, wherever he might lead.
After looking around Langley, I started to
see the different regiments in their camps.
Going out upon tho left I came to the sixth,
through whose camp I passed quietly, my ob
ject being to visit first the Kane Rifles, or as
they are more familiarly called, the "Buck-
tiils," who are encamped on a hill side facing
the east, a most excellent location. They
tOJk some trouble to fit up their camp com
fortably, having logs built up five or six feet
high, upon which they erect their tents
They have also an arrangement by which they
can heat them, and if required, do their cook
ing during bad weather. The officers have
built themselves very comfortable winter
quarters, although not jsuch handsome build
ings as most have been accustomed to occupy
at home, all st'em to be satisfied as well with
them as if they wera palaces. The Bucktails
are upon the lei t of the first row of camps oc
cupied by the Reserve ; and the 5th is on the
right. TJie 11th, 7th, 4th and 1st lie between.
There is part of the artillery joining the camp
of the 11th, a part in front of the 7th, and an-
other part in front of the 4th and yet another I
in front of the alb. The distance .from the
Bucktails to the 5th is about one mile. ' The
line is not straight owing to the character of
the ground, which is somewhat uneven. The
second tier of camps is composed, (commenc
ing on the right) of the 2d, 8th, 3d, 10th, 12th,
Oth and 6th regiments, and is also irregular
for the same reason as the first. The 5th, 1st,

Upon the left of Gen. McCall's Division lies

troops, irom almost an too loyai states in tue I
Union. Gen. Ilanck's brigade has one New
York, one Pennsylvania, one Wisconsin and
one Maine regiment, and one Battery of

May 19, 1S00. Ellen aet. 2S, single, never
was very strong. Two years ago she had an at
tack of acute rheumatism, from which she was con
fined to her bed for two weeks, and subsequently
from a relapse for four more. , She has been well
since then till last Saturday j while engaged in
house cleaning, she took cold, had pain in her back,
felt cold, but had no decided chill. Two days
later her ankles began to swell which was follow
ed by swelling of the knee joints and of the hands.
She has dull pain in her shoulders, and her knuck
les are very tender, red and painful ; both bands
are affected, but the right is the most so. This,
luen, ia case 01 acuio rneumacum. or, as it is now
fashionably called, rheumatic fever. It is a well
marked typical case. We will carefully watch the
case,and from time to time call your attention to
the various symptoms which present themselves.
My chief object in bringing her before you now is
to call your attention to a. remedy which has re
cently been recommended in the treatment of rheu
matism. I uieaiiiininvi?m(!. Dr. Awenarius of
St. Petersburg, recommends it in the highest terms
: 1 r 1 i f . r . . .
having derived great benefit from its use in 250
cases which came under his care. Various com
mendatory testimonials respecting it have appear
ed in our journals, and I propose giving it another
trial. . I must confess 1 am always incredulous as
to the worth of new remedies, which are vaunted
as specifics ; but this comes to us recommended so
highly, that we are bound to give it a trial.
SAME CASE FOUR DAYS LATER !
May 23, 1850. I wi l now exhibit to vou the na-
ticnt for whom I preshribed Propylamine, and
who was then ' laboring under n attack of acute
rheumatism. She has steadily taken it in doses
of three grains, every two hours, (intermitting it
atnight). The day after you saw her, I foundher
much more comfortable, belter than she expected
to be for a week or more, judging from' her other
attack. (The patient now walked into the room.)
The improvement has. steadily progressed, and
you cannot fail to notice a marked change in the
appearance of her joints, which are now nearly of
their natural size. Thus far our experiment would
have seemed very successtul ; but gentlemen we
must wait a little while before we can give a de
cided opinion as to what is to be the result.
THREE DAYS LATER!!
May 26,1860. This is the case of acute rhenma-
tism treated with propylamine, the first of those to
which I called your attention at our last clinic.
She is still very comfortable, and is now taking
tnree grains tbrice daily.
In this case it has seemed to be followed by very
satisfactory results. The second case to which
your attention was called at our last lecture, has
also continued to do well. I will now bring be
fore you a very characteristic case of acute rheu
matism, and if the result b esatisfactory, I thin I

A Fact Worth Knowing!
The undersigned informs his old friends and the
public generally that he has just received and o
peucd, at his old stand in Bradford township, a
NEW AND WELL SELECTED STOCK OF
SEASONABLE GOODS,
consisting of Dry Goods, Hardware, Quecusware
Groceries, and all other articles usually kept in a
country store, which he will dispose of at as low
rates as they can be purchased in the county, and
of as good quality, if not better. He respectfully
solicits all to give him a call and examine his
stock before purchasing elsewhere, and he feels
certain that they will buy from him.

yULCANITE BASE FOR
ARTIFICIAL TEETH.
Attention is especially called to this article, as a
substitute for gold in inserting teeth. Many per
sons who have tr rd all kinds of metal ic bases pre
fer this, and in those cases where it is applicable,
it will in a great measure become a substitute for
gold, silver or platina. Its chief advantages are,
cheapness, lightness and perfect adoption to the
mouth ; it having a soft fleshy feel to the parts of
the mouth with which it comes in contact.
A.M. Hills is prepared to put up teeth on tho
Vulcanite Base, with Goodyear's Patent Gum.
which is the only reliable preparation, and can
only-be had through their regular agents.

Friday and Saturday, unless notice appears to the
contrary, in the town papers, the previous week.
