medicinally termed. '• r Eitracte) of Roots,
Resta ati d Barka, pig making a prepara
tion highly coneen; Juu UAW and entirely
free frem alcoholic , admixture of any
kind.
Hoefland's German TOnic
•
Is a combination of all the intredients of The
Bitters, with the purest quell yof Santa Cruz
Rum, Orange ,ate., making one of the most
pleasant and agreeable remedies over offered to
the public..
Those preferring aliedisine, free from Alco
holic admixture, will use
1100FLiND'S GERMAI' BOTERS.
Those who have no objection to the carotins,
ttoo of the Bitters, as stated, will use
HOOFIAIP'S GEMAN TONIC
• ,
They are both equally geiod, and contain. the
same medicinal vi<gues, the choiee between the
two being a mere Matter of taste, the Tonic be
ing the moat palatable. ,
, The stomach; from a variety'. of causes, such
as Indigestion, Dys. pepsin, Nervous De
bility, etc., Is very irk apt to have its func
tions deranged. The ‘J Liver, sympathizing
as closely as it does • with the Stomach,
then becomes affected, the result of which Is
that the patient sutlers from several or more of
the following diseases:
Constipation, Flattilenee, -Inward Piles, Full
ness of Blood to the Head, Acidity of the Stom
ach, Nausea, Heartburn, Hogrist for Food, Full
ness or Weight in the Stomach. Sour Eructa
tions, Sinking or Fluttering at the Pit of the
Stomach, Swimming of the Head, Hurried or
Difficult. Breathing, Fluttering at the Heart,
Choking or. Suffocating Sensations when MA
lying posture, Dimness of Vision, Dots or Webs
before the Sight, Dull Pain in the Head, Defi
ciency of Perspiration, Yellowness of the Skin
and Eyes, H
Pain in the Side, Back, Chest, Limbs,
etc., sudden Flushes of eat, purning of the
Flesh, Constant Imaginings of Evil and Great
Depression of Spirits.
The infirerer from these diseases should'exer
else the greatest caution i n n the selection of a
remedy for his case, ipurchasing o y

GERMAN TONIC,
D ,C. AL. A. C IEt•S N ,
Twenty-two years since they were first intro
duced Into this country from Germany, during
which time they have undoubtedly performed
more cures, arid benefitted suffering humanity
to a greater extent, than any other remedies
known to the public.
Thew remedies Will effectually cure Liver Com.
plaint, Jaundice, Dyspepsia, Chronic
or Nervous Debilit - L -1 Chronic Diarrhoe a, Diseases of the Kid- r, neys and all diseas
es arising from a dia. ordered Liver,
Stomach, or Intestines.
Resulting from any cause whatever; Prostra.
Lion of the System. induced by Severe
Labor, Hardship', Expesure,
Fevers. Etc.
There is no, medicine extant egnai to these
remedies in such cases. A tone and vigor is im•
parted to the whole system, the appetite is
strengthened, food is enjoyed, the stomach di.
vests promptly, the blood is purified, the cam. -
plexion becomes sound and healthy, the yellow
tinge' 18 eradicated from the eyes, a bloom is
ven to the cheeks, and the weak and nervous
nsralid becomes a strong and healthy being.
Persons advanced in life, and feeling the hand
of time weighing heavily upon them, with an
its attendant ills, will find in the use of this
BITTEII.B or the TONIO; an elixir that will in.
sill new life Into their veins, restore in a meas
ure the energy and ardor of more youthful days,
build up their shrunken forms and give health
and happiness to their remaining years.
It is a'well established friet that funk one-halt
of the tensile portion — of our population
are seldom in the en- joyment of good
health- or, to use Ji their own expres
sion., "never feel well * " They are lan
guid, devoid of all energy, extremely nervous,
and haven() appetite.
To this class of persons the BITTERS, or the
TONIC, is especially recommended.
Weak - and delicate children are made strong
by the use of tither of these remedies.' They
will 'cure every case of MARASMUS, without
fall. Thousands of certificates have accumula
ted in the hands of the proprietor, but space
will allow of but few: These,ll. will be observed,
are men of note andof such standing that they
must be believed.-

asith a clear proof in -various in. Mums,

the usefulness of Dr. 1.11 Hoofiand's German
Bitters, I depart for - ono. - from my usual
course to express my full conviction that, for
General Debility of the System, and especially
for Liver Complaint, it it a safe and valuable

those who suffer from the above cause. •

The Know Nothing party had risen Into
sadden Importance, and swallowed up
.tk large portion,of the Whig organization, to
gether with a few Democrats. The Whigs
and Know : Nothings nominated James Poi
kicker Northrunberbutd, far Governor. The
'1852.
4,015 2,748
1853
Democrats re-nominated Wm. Bigler for
Governor, and Henry S. Mott, of Pike; for,
Canal Commissioner. • The Whig candidat
f or . the latter office was George Darsie,V
Allegheny,--the Know Nothings making no
nomination. The. Democratic candidate
for Supreme Judge was Jereiniab S. Black ;
the Whig, Daniel M. Smyser,. of Montgome
ry ; the Know Nothing, Thos. H. Baird, of
Washington. Erie county gave Pollock 3,637
votes, Bigler 2,526, Dante, 1,875, Mott, 3,364,
Black, 2,389, Smyser, 1,494, Baird 1,694. The
State vote was 204,008 for Pollock and 167,-

167,010, Smyser, 73,571, Baird 120,516—the
division' in the opposition vote re-electing
jiulge Black. Mr. Darsie, the Whig candi
date for Canal Commissioner, was of foreign
birth, and the Know NothVga threw their
votes for Mr. Mott, who is supposed by some
tclelhave been a member of the order, but de
nies the, charge to tfiis day. He received , the
largest majority ever giyen in the State. The
originaLNative,Americans had separate can
didates
in the field for Governor and Canal I
Commissioner, but they received only a
trifling support.
A ballot was taken at this election to 'de
cide whether the Maine Liquor Law should
be adopted in the State or not, and restated
in 158,342 votes for, to 163,510 against. s : Erie
county east 2,767 for the' law, and 1,501

• Gen. John Dick was re-elected to , Congresa
without oppositios.
The memorable "railroad war" in our

by ns votes.
DE
•
This year is remarkable for the number of
State tickets in the field, there being no less
than six, A. re-action had set in against the
Know-Nothings, and desperate efforts were
made by the opposition to the Democracy to
retain their ascendency. A portion of the
Whigs and Know Nothings nominated Thos.
Nicholson, of Beaver, for penal Commission
er. The Democratic candidate for the same
office was Arnold Plumer, of Franklin. The
Republicatkparty, jtist rising into sight, nom
inated Passmore Williamson, of Philadel
phia, whose resistance to the fugitive slave
law had got himNinto prison, and caused him
to be looked upon as a martyr. The original
Natives supported Kimber Cleaver. The
dissatisfied Know Nothings nominated Peter
Martin, of Lancaster, and the same element
among the Whi6 supported Jos. Henderson,
of Washington. Erie Co. gave Plumer 1,098
votes, Nicholson 2,113, Williamson 471, and
Cleaver 15. The vote of the State was as
follows : Planter 161,280, Nicholson 150,359,
Williamson 7,068, Cleaver 4,041, hfartiqs7l,'
Henderson 2,27o,—Plumer, the Democratic
candidate, being elected. _
The "railroad war" continued to excite
the People of this county and district, and
prevented party lines from being drawn in
the choice of local officers. The candidate
were selected with reference to that issue en
tirely. For State Senate, Darwin A. Finney
and Chas. B. Power, both Crawford county
Whigs, were the candidates. The vote of
Erie county was 1,886 for Finney, al 3,034
for Power. We have been unable o find
that of Crawford, but it was largely ,in favor
of Finney, who was successful by a consid
erable majority. The candidates for local
Offices were as follows : Assembly, G. J.
Ball, Erie, 2,716 ; Murray Whallon, Erie,
2,575 ; Theodore Ryman, Girard, 2,114 ; Robt.
Dunn,,Snmmit, 2,136 ; Sheriff,- John Evans,

ruin. Companionsin dissipation encourage

united front against saving influence, 'To

hearts against Clod and salvation by ridicule

and goes alter him with prayers and pleading
tears, but alas, the bonds of sin have already
grown too strong for the ties.of filial affec

he is mingling for her the cup of unutterable
anguish. The sister's gentle and tender en
treaties are added, but only to be spurned for
the cult. of intoxication. With all her
blessed ministries she cannot lead him back
