More New Music The following pieces
of music, "Promenade Concert Polka,"
(50eents) and "My Jamie's oa the Battle
Field," (25 ceents,) by Mrs. Paikhurst, and
"Santa Claus Sane and Chorus," (25, cents.)
by Rev. A. A. Graley, have just been pub
lished by Horace Waters, 4S1 Broad .vay,
New York. They are all excellent pieces,
mA -thv the attention of all lovers of
music.
A IIiXT. The Dayton - Journal very
truthfully and pointedly remarks that there
ought to be no such thing as doing a thing
gratuitously in a printing office. Nobody
gets groceries, or dry goods, or medical ad
vice without pa mar lor them. In a news
paper office not a line is set up that does not
cost something for setting. Either ihe
printer must pay the whole,1 or the adver
tiser must pay his share. The only question
to be asked by the publisher is, who is to
pay for the labor? What ground has this
party or individual to require me to pay for
the promotion of its object?
Atlantic and Great Western Rail-
koad. From the Brookville Republican
of Dec. 13th, we learn that, on the 6th,
the engineers of the Atlantic and Great
."Western Road commenced the grading,
sear that place thus taking formal posses
sion of their line. We are also informed,
that said company have about one thousand
hands at work at several points now, and
tha the force is t be largely increased, and
the grading and building of the road pushed
to an early completion. This is a source of
gratification to our citizens generally, as
Clearfield is a point in their charter.
Serious Accident. We learn that, . on
Tuesday, December 19th, Philip Ileisey,
of Lawrenci township, met with a very seri
ous accident, whilst hauling wood. As he
came down a hill, the wood, standing on
tnd, pressed the front part out of the wagon
bed, and slide down in front of the wagon
carrying Mr. Ileisey with it In trying to
get out of danger, Mr. Heisey happened to
fall in such a position -.hat the wagon heels
passed over his body breaking several of
his shorter ribs, and otherwise injuring him.
He is lying in rather a critical condition,
but hopes are entertained of his recovery.
Important to Music iANs.:The follow
ing testimony from a lady who purchased a
Strinway's Piano , from 1 B. M. Greene,
ageut for this county, shows not. only j that
she appreciates a good instrument, but is
additional testimony to the superiority of
their make of Pianos over all others. She
ays: "For purity and sweetness of tone,
elasticity of touch, aud beauty of instrument,
together with all the modern improvements,
1 nd it unequalled" "I cheerfully re
commend Messrs'Steinway & Sons pianos to
any who wish to purchase." These cele
brated instruments as well as Mason & Ham
lin's Cabinet Organs, Mr. Greene keeps on
hand constantly at his Music Store, Hunting
don, Pa. Send for a circular.
Railroad Monopolies. The House of
Representatives yesterday honored itself by
P&ing a bill reported by Mr. Washburne
of Dlinois from the Committee of Coartnerce,
"jconforniity with a recommendation of
President Johnson's late Message, "to fa
cilitate postal, commercial and military com
munication between the States." This bill
provides in substantial accordance with
Mr. Sumner's at the last Session that eve
railroad company shall henceforth be author
ized to transport mails, passengers and
freight between any two States of our Union,
any attempt of a State to create or perpetu
ate a monoply of such transportation to the
contrary notwithstanding. We have but a
faint hope that this bill will pass the Senate.
The Camden and Atnboy Company alone can
afford to ray a Quarter of a Million Dollars
to defeat it ; and we consider that sum am
P'f sufficient Still, every passage of such
bill through the House tends to enlighten
the public with regard to the injustice and
Z"a.?t Railroad Monopoly, and to increase
the difficulty and peril of buying another
rsnewal of it from ever so venal and reck
ieas a legislature. We trust, therefore, that
Senate will be pressed to vote on the
House bill, that the country may note how
Js defeated. Tribune. .

THE KIDNEYS.
-K. . ' ; ' "
""The kidneys are two in number sit
uated at the upper" part of the loin,
surrounded by fat, and consisting of
three parts, viz: the anterior, the in
terior, and the exterior.
The anterior absorbs; the interior consists of
tissues or reins, which serve as a denosit for the
urine, and convey it to the exterior ; the exterior
is a conductor also, terminating in a single tufce,
and called the ureter: the ureters are connected
with the bladder.
The bladder is composed of various
coverings or tissues, divided into parts, vix : the
upper, the lower, the nervous, and the mucous.
The upper expels, the lower retains. Many have
a desire to urinate without the ability, otheis u
rinate without the ability to retain. This fre
quently occurs in children. - " - -
To cure these affections we must
bring into action the muscles, which are engaged
in their various functions. If they are neglected
Gravel and Dropsy may ensue.
The reader must also be made aware
that, however slight may be the attack, it is sure
to affect his bodily health and mental powers, as
onr flesh and blood are suDDorted" from these
sources.
Gout, or Rheumatism.
Pain occurring in the loins is indic

sons disposed to acid stomach and chalky sccra
tions.
The Gravel. -
The Gravel ensues from -neglect or
the improper treatment of the kidneys.
These organs being weak, the water is not expel
led from the bladder, but allowed to remain ; it
becomes feverish and sediment forms. It is from
this deposit that the stone is formed and Gravel

Helmbold, Druggist:
Dear Sir: I have been a suffer
er, for upwards of twenty years, with
gravel, bladder, and kidney affections,
during which ;ime J have used various medicinal
preparations, and been under the treatment ot
the uioet eminent physicians, experiencing but
little relief.
Having seen your preparations ex-
tensively advertised! consulted with my family
physician in regard1
ln using your Extract Uucnu.
I did this because- I used all kinds
of advertised remedies, and had found
them worthless, and some quite injurious; in fact,
I despaired of ever getting well, and determin
ed to use no remedies unless I knew of the ingre
dient. It was this tbut prompted me to use your
remedy As you ad vurtised that it w.is compos
ed of uucuir, CLiiKBS. and juniper ijkkkiks, it oc
curred to me and my physician as an excellent
combination, and, with his advice. after an exam
ination of the article, and consulting agaiu with
the druggist. I'couculuded to try it. I commen
ced its use about eightmonths ago, at which time
I was confinedto my room. From the first bot
tle I was astonished and gratified at the benefi
cial effect, and arter using it three weeks, was a
bte to walk out. I felt much like writing you a
full statement of my case at the time, but thought
my improvement might only be temporary and
therefore concluded to defer and see if it would
effect a perfect cure, knowing thou it would be of
greater value to you ttnd more satisfactory to me
I am now able to report that a cure
is effected after using the remedy for
five months. .
I have not used any now for three
months, and feel as well in all respects
as I ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant
taste and odor, a nice tonic and invigorator of the
system. I do not mean to be witho-ut it whenever
occasion may require its use in such affections.
