TWO WEEKS from ihis time, the Fust
Y.. of the CWiWc under the present firm,
and on the Advance system, will close. No.
61, (Jan. 1, 1856,) will make up the Year
lor which a large number have raid.
We give this TIMELY XOTICE, that all
who choose to continue to favor us with their
custom, may have ample time to prepare to
pre-pay for anoiher year, ball' year, or longer,
as they may see proper. Li l accordance
with our present maimer of doing business,
all with wnom we have no oilier account, or
who do not signify their ititeuitou to pay at an
early day, and desire a lutle time, will be
discontinued f.om our books, with our best
wishes for iheir prosperity.

acceptable as Cash.
"How does the Advance Tlan work?"
It may be asked. We say, emphaticall),
WELL. It is cheaper to honest patrons, for
they get their paper at a less cost, are not
dunned, ajJ at the end of the year are not in
debt to the J'riit cr. Il is better lor dhtmiicst

out of every fifty of our patrons say, "Ir is

The City prin!?r have almost entirely
adopted the Advance syste.n.and the best and
msi flourishing Country papers are following
an their wake. We can therefore earnestly
recommend it toall.as mutually advantageous.

HL'.NDRED names from our list, m default of
advance payment ; and yet we have realized
more money than during any previous year.

and n!.t renewed. S.nne of those sti:i m ar-
Notwithstanding the erasing from our list
of over 200 names, we have still kept hand
somely in advance of all our county compet
itors; added more names than we have erased
weekly; and the quality of our list commends
uself to shrewd business men everywhere as
tsi rut best tDir run AnvmTisno ot
Ital Estate, Merchandize, 4c, as those who
ray in advance, are invariably the best busm-
s men.and the men who advertisers delight
to deal with.
Heretofore, also, onr patronage has been
somewhat circumscribed by our advocacy tf
certain Local Qaetluinr, which repelled large
numbers of citizens, who would otherwise
have been our patrons. Those issues being
as we heartily trust now fully decided, the
future will we hope give us more opportunity
for advancing oca uwx "riust." While we
have no apology to make for our successive
dffenees of Riilroads, Division and I.ewisburg,
it is true that in none were we promoting cur
individual interest. Hereafter, we shall pay
more attention to that branch of progress and
improvement our own pecuniary advantage
by seeking an extension of the patronage of
our establishment. We ak (and certainly il

WORDEX & CORNELIUS.
JUDGE NOT.
Judge not ! the workings of his brain
And of bis ti.art thou canst not see;
What looks to thy dim eyes a stain,
In God's pure light may onlv be
A scar, brought from some well-won fielJ, '
Where thou wouldst only faiut and yield.
The look, the air, that frets thy sight.
May be a token, that below
The soul has closed in deadly fight
With some internal fiery foe.
Whose glanc would scorch thv smiling grace,
And cast thee shuddering on ihy face!
The fall thou darest to despise
May-he the angel's slackened hand
Has suffered it, that he may rise
And lake a firmer, surer stand ;
fr, trusting less to earthly things,
May henceforth learn lo use his wings.
And judge none lost ; but wait, and see
With honeful nitv. not disdain :
The depth of the abyss may be
The measure of the height of pain,
And love and glory that may raise
Tu soul to God in after cavs !

The poor rcdCmptionist," George Taylor,

his early school knowledge, sharpened by

The wonderful effect of pood tillage is
exemplified iu our gardens. Here a few
rods produce, annually, ten times thc
weight of produce afforded by tbe best
mauaged fields. And why should n it ev
ery inch of soil the husbandman cultivates,
be as fertile as his garden ? Look at our
wealthy amateur farmers, and see what
immense products they secure front their
lands ! liut it will be said such men sink
fortunes in farming. True, this is fre
quently the case. liut why ? Simply be
cause they hire everything done. They
are generally "men of leisure," wealthy
merchants, or professional men who bave
acquired affluence, and perharg can afford
to farm at an outlay. But tbis result
wouj not experienced by tbe careful,
prudent, judicious, intelligent and working
