Subject to the decision of tlic Stale Convention.
To our Patrons.
Almost a year having elapsed since we is
sued ihe first number of the " Jeffersonian
Republican," and fearful that some of our sub
scribers are of the opinion that "Printers can
live upon wind," we take the opportunity of in
forming them that William Easlburn of this Bor
ough and C. W. De Witt of Milford, Pike coun
ty, are our duly authorized agents, who will be
pleased to receive and receipt all matters ap
pertaining to this office. We hope and believe
our humble efforts in the glorious Whig cause
have not been in vain, and deem further notice
unnecessary our friends will much oblige by
settling their subscriptions with the aforemen
tioned agents without delay.
Inquest.
On Saturday morning last, John W- Burnett,
Esq. held an inquest at the house of Margaret
Eagles, in this Borough, on the body of Daniel
Callighan, a resident of Coolbaugh township,
aged about 70 years, who was found dead in
his bed in the morning. Verdict Visitation

Election Joke.
At the late election in this city, an
old and well known gentleman pre
sented himself at the window where
he had voted for twenty years. His
vote was challenged by a young whipper-snapper
who officiated, and who
knew that the old gentleman differed
in politics with him.
"It is necessary for you to swear
that you have lived in this ward more
than ten dars," said the challenger.
"Why you know that I have," re
plied the voter, "for more than a year
ago you came to my shop, and pur
chased the hat you have on, and nev
paid for it yet. N. Y. Paper.
Children are never tired of asking
questions, and funny ones they ask
too, sometimes; hear this little girl
now
"Mother, do horses wear shoes?"
"Yes, child."
"What kind of shoes are they, mo
ther?" "Iron shoes, child."
"How do they put them on mother?"
"They nail them on with iron nails,
my dear."
"Do horses take off their shoes
when they go to bed, mother?" -
"0 go away, child don't you see
I'm busy? What a tongue you have
sol!"
A lady once borrowed a dictionary
oi an acquaintance: on returning: the
book she was asked how she liked it.
"Oh!" replied the fair one, "the words
are beautiful but I don't think much
of the story." SL Josej)h Times.
Air uiikiatl cut.
The Ausrusta (Me.) Ape, a Van
Buren paper, thus frankly adverts to
the overthrow of the "present admin
istration.
"In every sense, Mr. Van Buren is
nOW a FALLEN STATESMAN. Not on
ly is his administration, condemned by
the country, but even his own State
that of his birth as well as his career,
has cast him off as recreant and un
worthy. With the power to save, his
feelings, although not to avert his fate,
it has abandoned him with the rest,
joined the troop of his victorious rival,
and added to defeat, the last circum
stance of mortification."
Tended Avrv:il in the wvlj of Trade.
A young and pretty girl stepped
into a store where a spruce young man,
who had been long enamoured but
dare not speak, stood behind tljc coun
ter selling dry goods. In order to re-
mam as long as possible, she cheap
ened every thing, "I believe you think
I am cheating you." "Oh no," said
the 3roungster. To me you are al
ways fair' 'Well," whispered the
lady blushing as she" laid mi empha
sis on the word, I would not stay so
long bargaining if you were not so

Celebrated Vegetable Antibilous Pills,
arc daily effecting some of the most astonishing
and wonder) id cures that have ever been known,
the town and country arc filled with their praise,
the Palace and Poor-house alike echo with their vir
tues in all climates and under all tvmpcratdrcs
they still retain their icondcrful virtues.
PETERS' VEGETABLE PILLS.
Breathes there the man who may not be occa-
sasionally benefited by the use of Peters'1 Pills !
No, assuredly not ; for the human frame, likeanv
olher structure, will fall into confusion and ruin,
if neglected ; but, by the aid of medicine judi
ciously applied, it is enabled to preserve a heal
thy and even tone ; and it is the lirt of well-tested
public opinion, that Dr. Peters' pills are the me
dicine of medicines in the prevention or cure of
the general diseases which the human tenement
is incidental to.
Do men in robust health require medicine 1 Cer
tainly, for the very excess of health begets cer
tain diseases unless duly regulated. If the blood
Is sultered to run riot without correcting laxatives,
costiveness, rnegrni, biles, scurvy, spleen, pimples,
furred tongue, or offensive breath, are the inevita
ble consequences ; for exuberance of health, like
over-rich soil, becomes rank, and prone to the pro
duction of weeds, if care is not taken to have it
judiciously moderated.
But healthy men have an antipathy to the very
name of medicinej! And no wonder, lor nineteen
twentieths of all the medicines in the world com
mence operations by making the people' very sick,
whom it was intended they should rilake very "well;
and thus in most cases the cure is considered rather
worse than the disease. But Dr. Peters"5 Pills is
the celebrated and particular exception t& this al
most universal rule. In them there is no gripe,
no nausea, no sickness of any kind; nay, they are
absolutely very pleasant to the taste, and rest as
quietly on the stomach as so many confits of green
peas, even when their operations are as sudden and
effective, as if they Were as disagreeable and as
sickening as an old fashioned bolus. Thus the
man who uses Peters' Pills, and where is the
man that does not use them I expels headaches,
fevers, blue devils, blotches, pimples, &c. &c. and
makes his blood course as limpid and as gently
through hi? vein? as. a, mountain. rivulet without
having put himself to any more inconvenience in
taking the medicine than he would have done in
swallowing so many black currants.
Should ladies take. Dr. Peters' Pills Doubt
lessly they should, for they not only assure them
of health, complacency of spirits, and every bod
ily comfort, but through their miraculous agency
in the purification of the blood, speedily remove
every thing pertaining to harshness, pimples, or
casual scurvy, from the flesh, animates the eye,
and gives an elasticity and a vigor to the limbs,
and the general carriage ; and hence, when you
see a lady with a cheek of velvet softness, a pure
lily and carnation complexion, and an easy & grace
ful bearing, the general inference to be drawn is,
that she is her own physician, and very particular
in the choice of her medicine ; and the especial
one, that she is a patron of jfeters fills.
Leaving health out of the question, should poets,
novelists, editors, machinists, and men of genius
and science in general, patronise Meters' rills
Unquestionably, for the vigor which they impart
to the frame, exercises a most wholesome influ
ence upon the intellect : and the writer of this
feels justified in saying, that any person about to
carry out an idea, whether of composition or in
vention, will have a more lucid understanding of
his subject, and think better and more to the point
on it, after he has vivified his system by a dose of
irom one to lour ot relers' pills- Persons in bu
siness, merchants, store keepers, clerks, specula
tors, czc. will derive great advantage from them
on the same principle; for if the mind is not buoy
ant, no man can a'ttend to the usual pursuits of
Hie with due perspicuity, judgment, and pleasure
and there isnothing in the world, at least that has
been ever discovered, so efficient in brightening
the faculties, and freeing them from participating
in the languor, decay, and imperfectibilty of their
mortal abode as Dr. refers pills.
1 o what may be attributed these singular and
wonderful effects' 1 Why, to their mysterious and
inevitable action upon the chyle, and that particu
lar region of the system whence the living fluid is
generated ; for thus they do not only purify the
blood, but create pure blood, the issue of which is
healthy veins, arteries, and other functions, unob
scured vision, firm and pulpy flesh, smooth and
clear skin, and the consequent buoyancy of heart,
feeling, and action. In short, whether we take
them as a matter of health, business, feeling, or
personal appearance, there is none of us should
leave our houses without a regular1 supply of Pe
ters' Pills.
More than six millfons of boxes of these cele
brated pills have been sold in the United States,
Canada's, Texas, Mexico, and the West Indies,
since January 1835. The certificates thaf have
been presented to the proprietor, exceed 00,000,
upwards of 500 of which are frorrf regular prac
tising physicians who are the mo& competent
judges of thoir merits'.

Dear Sir. I embraco this opportunity of ex
pressing to you my pleasure at t'ne unrivalled suc
cess of youi pills in this section, of the country.
It is the general fault of those who vend patent
medicines to say too much in their favb&; but in
regard to your pills I am firmly persuaded that
they deserve far more praise than you seem in
clined to give mem. Six months' ago they werd
scarcely known here, and yet at present there i-i
no other medicine that can compare with them i:i
popularity. In Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, de
rangement of the Biliary organs, and obstinate
constipation of the bowels, 1 know of no aperient
more prompt and efficacious; and I have had con
siderable experience in all these complaints
I would add that their mildness and certainty of
acfion render them a safe and efficient purgative
for weekly individuals; and that they may be giv
en at ail times without apprehension of any of
those injurious consequences which so frequently
attend the application of calomel, or blue pill. On
the whole 1 consider your Vegetable Pills an in
valuable discovery. very respectfully,

Dear Sir 1 have made frequent use of your

" I never knew a single patent medicine that I
could put the slightest confidence in but Dr Peters'
Vegetable pills, which are ?ea'ilj; ri. valuable dis

CURING PRACTICE.-
The principle of purifying the body by purg
ing with vegetable physic is becoming more and
more understood as the only sensible method by
which sound health can be established, llun
dreds of individuals have become convinced of
this doctrine, and are daily acknowledging the
practice to be the best ever discovered. Now
is the unhealthy season when our bodies are
liable to be affected with disease; and now is
the time the state of the stomach and bowels
should be attended t6, because on the healthy
state of those organs depends the healthy state
of the general system; and every one will see at
once, if the general health be bad while that re
mains, local disease cannot be cured.
All the medicine that is requisite to restore;
the body to a state of health is Brandrcth's Veg
etable Universal Pills, which have performed
cures upon thousands of helpless and hopeless
persons, after the usual scientific skill of phy
sicians have consoled them with the assurance
that they could do no more. The properties of
these Pills as anti-bilious and aperient medicine
are unrivalled; all who use them recommend
them, their virtues surpass all eulogy, and must
be used to be appreciated. The weak and del
icate will be strengthened by their use. not bv
bracing but by removing the cause of weakness,,
the gross and corrupt humors of tho bodv.
They require no change in uiet or care of any
kind. Plain directions o.ccomnanv pnrb lmv
