    JEFFERSONIAN REP UBL1CAN
OF THE
Jeficrsoiiiaii Republican,
A iew Weekly Paper, to be published at Strouds

Pike Coiinty, Pa., suniiltancously.
"Tha whole art of Government consists in the ar
of being honest. Jefferson.
THE JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN
$1 principle, will be all its itle purports,- the linn
and unwavering advocate of the principles and
doctrines of the democratic party, delineated by
the illustrious Jefferson : the right-of the peo
ple to think, to speak, and to act, independent
ly, on all subjects, holding themselves respon
sible to no power for the free exercise of this
right, but their God, their Country, and her
Laws, which they themselves have created.
A free and untrammeled Press, conducted in a
spirit worthy of our institutions, is a public bles
sing, a safeguard to the Constitution under which
tve live, and it should be cherished and support
ed by every true republican. Such, then, it is
designed to make the paper now estab
lished, and as such, the publisher calls up
the enlightened citizens of Monroe and Pik to
ftid him in this laudable enterprise. The time
has arrived when ihe Press should take a bold
and faarless stand against the evidently increas
ing moral and po.itieai degeneracy 01 the day,
and endeavor, by a fa;:, c!id:u, aim honorable
course, to remove nos- ux .Tie::, v;:vh cciion
fel prejudices, party vr:, au.i . ;y uitiniosity
have reared to mr the social r;-i.:jiis of men
without accomplishing an paramount good.
THE JEFFERSi)MA. REPUBLICAN
will not seek to lead or follow any faction, or to
advocate and support the schemes of any par
ticular set of men. It will speak independent
ly on all State and National questions, award
ing to each that support which its merits may
demand, never hesitating, however, to condemn
uch measures, as in the opinion of the editor is
justly warranted, holding as a first principle :
The greatest good to the greatest number"
Believing that the great principles of democ
racy are disregarded by the present Chief Ma
gistrate of the Nation,, Martin Van Buren.
the JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN, will
decidedly, but honorably oppose his re-election
to the high and responsible station which he
now holds.
It will firmly oppose lhe " Independent Trea
sury" Scheme, and all other schemes having
for their object tbe concentration in the hands
of one man, and that man the President of the
.Nation, all power over the public moneys, a
power, which, when combined with that vest
ed in him by tho Constitution as Commander-in-Chief
of the American forces, Military and
Naval, together with an enormous official pa
tronage, would render him more powerful than
th Executive of the British Nation, and in
hort make our Government, de facto an Elec
tive Monarchy.
It will ever maintain that the welfaro of our
Country and the preservation of her Republican
Institutions 6hould be the first and only senti
aienls of our hearts in the choice of our public
servants; that honesty, fidelity, and capability,
are the only true tests of merit ; that all men
r created equal, and, therefore, should alike
enjoy the privileges conferred on them by the
Constitution without being subject to proscrip
tion, or coerced by the influence of pari v.
Tho columns of the JEFFERSONIAN
REPUBLICAN will ever be open to the free
iicUBsion of all political questions, believing
wo do, that there is no liberty where both
sides may not be heard, and where one poriion
of freemen are denied the privilege of declar
ing their sentiments through the medium of the
Press, because they differ from the majority.
The JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN
will ever take a lively interest in the affairs of
Monroe and Pike, and of the Senatorial and
Congressional Districts with which they are
connected.
The Farmer, the Merchant, the Mechanic,
and the Laborer, will each find a friend in the
olumns of the JEFFERSONIAN REPU3
XI CAN. Due care will be taken 10 furnish its
readers with the latest Foreign and Domestic
News, and such Miscellaneous reading as will
b both interesting and instructive. In short it
is designed to make the paper worthy of an ex
tensive patronage, both from the strictly moral
one -which it will ever possess, and the efforts
of ths editor to mako it a good and useful
Tamily Newspaper.

Stagnation of the Blood.
The repeated changes in the atmosphere, by act
ing as they do upon the consistence and quality of
(he blood, give occasion for the most fatal and ma
lignant disorders. The blood from a' state of health
becomes staguant and is plunged into a state of
corruption.
Thus it los-vj its purity: its circulation is impe
ded; the channels of life are clogged; the bowels be
come costive, and if not an immediate attack of
some malignant fever, headache, nausea, loss of
appetite, and a general debility of the whole frame
are sure to follow.
It requires the tempest and tho tornado to bring
about a state of purity in the ocean, when its wa
ters become stagnant; and it will require repeat
ed evacuation by tho stomach and bowels before
the blood can be relieved of it accumulated im
purity. Brandretlis Vegetable Universal Pills,
should be taken, then there will be no danger; be
cause they purge from the stomach and bowels
these humors which are the cause of stagnation,
cleanse the blood from all impurities, remove every
cause of pain or weakness, and preserve the consti
tution in a state of health and vigub that cauaual
changes cannot effect.
Dr. Brandreth's Office for the exclusive sale of
his Vegetable Universal Pills, in Philadelphia, is

box.

Harrison's Specific Ointment.
The great celebrity of this unrivalled Composi
tion especially in the Northern States leaves
the proprietor but little need to say any thing in
its favor; for it has been generally conceded to it,
that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy
for external complaints that has ever been discov
cied. Indeed the speed and certainty of its oper
ations have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers,
wounds, corns, fever sores, chilblains, white swel
hnas, biles, piles, spider and snake biles &c.
immediately weld to its apparently super human
influenc e. Thus if properly applied it will remove
an inveterate, corn cr break and heal a bile in five
days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two
weeks ; and the most desperate cases of white
swelling that can be imagined, have been destroyed
bv it in less than two months. In the biles of
poisonous reptiles its efficacy is truly surprising;
and even in the bite of a rabid dog, for if applied
in time, its powers of attraction are so wonderful
that they will at once arrest the poison and thus
prevent it from pervading the system. It is like
wise greatly superior to any medicine heretofore
discovered for the chafed backs and limbs of horses
for tetters, ring worms, chapped lips, and in
short for every external bodily evil that may fall
to the lot of man or beast.
The proprietor has received at least a thousand
certificates and other documents, in favor of his
" Specific Ointment" upwards a hundred of which
were written by respectable members of the Med
ical Faculty ; and in selecting from this pile the
following san pies, he was governed more by their
brevity, than their contents, as they all breath the
same spirit ol eulogy and salisiaction.
CERTIFICATES.
Albany, July 9, 1837.
To. Dr Harrison, Sir- I use your Specific Oint
ment in my practice and cordially recommend it
as a most efficient remedy for Tumors, Ulcers,
White Swellings, Scrofula, Rheumatic Pains,
Chapped Face, Lips and Hands; and for general
and external complaints. 1 write this at the re
quest of your agent here, who furnishes me with
the article, and am pleased to have it in my power
to award honor to merit.

Extract of a Letter from Dr. J. YV. Sanders, )
of Louisville. Ky. October 8, 1837. J
" I am prepared to say, that for Rheumatic Pains
and the Sore Breasis of females, Harrison's Spe
cific Ointment has no superior, if indeed it lias
any equal, in the whole catalogue of external me
dicines, as known and prescribed in this country."
Extract of a letter from Dr Polts, of Utica, N Y.
Dated July 28, 1838.
"Harrison's 'Specific Ointment" is, in my opin
ion, a most important discover)'; and is particular
ly efficient in scrofulas, ulcers, sore legs, erup
tions, and general outward complaints, speak of
its merits from an experience of four years "
Cincinnati, Ohio, Oct. 4, 1838.
To Dr. Harrison, Dear Sir, I write to con
gratulate you on the extraordinary virtue of yonr
' Specific Ointment,' in the curing of burns. A
little boy of mine, 4 years old, fell against the
fire-place threr weeks since, when his clothes be
becaue ignited, and he was instantly enveloped
in flames. After some difficulty the fire was ex
tinguished, but not before the poor little fellow's
lower extremities were almost covered with a con
tmual mister. Jlaving much laith m your oint
ment, I immediately purchased three boxes, which
I applied unsparingly, according to your direc
tions in such cases ; and it is with great pleasure
and gratitude, that I am able to inform you that it
allayed the pain in a lew hours ; and in ten days
had effected a complete cure. I need scarcely
add that it ought to be in the possession of eve
rv family, as there 13 no telling when such acci
dents may occur. Yours respectfully,
II. M. SHEPHARD.

Bocf . Joseph Priestly Peters'
Celebrated Vegetable Antibilous Pills,
are daily effecting some of the most astonishing
and wonderful cures that have ever been known,
the tow7i and country are filed with their praise,
the Palace and Poor-house alike echo with their vir
tues in all climates and under all temperatures
they still retain their wonderful virtues.
PETERS' VEGETABLE PILLS.
Breathes there the man who may not be occa-
sasionally benefited by the use of Peters' Pills f
No, assuredly not ; for the human frame, like any
other structure, will fall into confusion and ruin,
if neglected ; but, by the aid of medicino judi
ciously applied, it is enabled to preserve a heal
thy and evon tone ; and it is the firt 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 suffered to run riot without correcting laxatives,
costiveness, megrin, biles, scurvy, spleon, 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 medicine)! And no wonder, for nineteen
twentieths of all the medicines in the world com
mence operations by making the people very sick,
whom it was intended they should make very well;
and thus in most cases the cure is considered rather
worse than the disease. But Dr. Peters' Pills is
the celebrated and particular exception to 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 1 expels headaches,
fevers, blue devils, blotches, pimples, Sic. &c. and
makes his blood course as limpid and as gently
through his veins 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 choico of her medicine ; and the especial
one, that she is a patron of Peters' Pills.
Leaving health out ol the question, should poets,
novelists, editors, machinists, and men of genius
and science in general, patronise Peters' Pills 1
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
from one to four of Peters' pills- Persons in bu
siness, merchants, store keepers, clerks, specula
tors, &c. will derive great advantage from them
on the same principle; for if the mind is not buoy
ant, no man can attend to the usual pursuits of
life with due perspicuity, judgment, and pleasure
and there is nothing 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 imperfectibiity of their
mortal abode as Dr- Peters' pills.
To 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,
leeling, 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 regular supply of re
ters' Pills.
More than 6ix millions 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 that have
been presented to the proprietor, exceed 20,000,
upwards of 500 of which are from regular prac
tising physicians who are the most competent
judges of their merits.
TESTIMONIALS.
OPINIONS OF THE REGULAR FACULTY.
The following are but a few taken at random,
from a pile of complimentary epistles forwarded
to Dr. Peters by regular physicians, touching the
efficacy of his pills. He feels proud and grate
ful in being able to lay such documents before the
public.
New Orleans, April 24, 1837.
Dear Sir As an old classmate of yonrs in Yale
college, 1 take the liberty of opening a correspon
dence,
1 learn that vou are makincr a fortune bv the sale
1 of your pills, which I trust is the case as I am ful
V .
ly aware that through them you are conleinng a
great olessing on the public
1 myself am among those who have been pecul
iurly benefited by their use. Since my arrival
here I had been subject to severe bilious attacks,
which had nearly brought me to the grave, but
(and 1 acknowledge it with gratitude,) a few box
es of your pills have completely restored me.
would add that their effect upon Sick Headache
and sour stomach is almost miraculous.
With sentiments of esteem,

Clarkcsville, Mecklenberg Co., Va., Feb. 7, 1837.
Dear Sir. I embrace this opportunity of ex
pressing to you my pleasure at the unrivalled suc
cess of youi pills in this section of the country.
It is the general fault cf those who vend patent
medicines to say too rauch in their favor ; but in
regard to your pills I am firmly persuaded that
they deserve far more praise than you seem in
clined to give them. Six months ago they were
scarcely known hero, and yet at present there is
no other medicine that can compare with them in
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 iu all these complaints
I would add. that their mildness and certainty of
action render them a safe and efficient purgative
for weekly individuals: and that they may be giv
en at all 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,
5. H- HARRIS, AT. D.
Charlotte, N. C, January 1, 1837
Dear Sir I have made frequent use of your
pills in tha incipient stage of Bilious Fever, and
obstinate constipation of the bowels; also in tho
enlargement of the Spleen, Chronic Diseases, of
the Liver, Sick Headache, Ueneral Debility, and
in all cases have found them to be very effective.
. D. BOYD, M. D.
Mecklenberg Co., Va., February 7. 1837.
Having used Dr. Peters' Pills in my practice
for the last twelve months, 1 take pleasure in giv
ing my testimony of their good effects in cases of
Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, Bilious I evers, and
other diseases, produced by inactivity of thelivei.
They are a safe and mild aperient, being tho
best article of the kind I have ever used.
GEORGE C. SCOTT, M. D.
Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williams, of Bur
lington, Vt. July 9, 1837.
"I cordially recommend Peters' Pills as a mild
ly effective, and in no case dangerous family me
dicine, lhey are peculiarly influential m cos
tiveness and all die usual diseases of the digestiva
organs."
Extract of a letter from Dr Edward Smilhk of Mon
treal, U. C. September, 20, 1836
" I never knew a single patent medicine that I
could put the slightest confidence in but Dr Peters'
Vegetable pills, which are really a valuable dis
covery. I have no hesitation in having it known
that 1 use them extensively in my practice, for all
complaints, (and they are not a few,) which have
heir source in the impurity of the blood."
Extract of a letter from Dr Pye, of Quebec, L. C,
March 6, 1837
"For bilious fevers, sick headaches, torpidity of
the bowels, and enlargement of the spleen, Dr .Pe

DELAWAKE ACADEMY.
The Trustees of this Institution, have the
pleasure of announcing to the public, and par
ticularly to the friends of education, that- they

nome, to tins institution, inev are nilm? up
the building in the first style, and its location
from its retired nature is peculiarly favorable
for a boarding school. It commands a beauti
ful view of the Delaware river near which it
is situated, and the surrounding scenery such
as the lover of nature will admire it is easily
accessible the Easion and Milford Stages pass
it daily, and only 8 miles distant from the latter
place, and a more salubrious section of coun
try can nowhere be found. No fears need be
entertained that pupils will contract pernicious
habits, or be seduced into vicious company it
is removed from all places of resort and those
inducements to neglect their studies that are
furnished in large towns and villages.
Board can be obtained very low and near the
Academy. Mr. Daniel W. Dingman, jr. will
take several boarders, his house is very conve
nient, and students will there be under the im
mediate care of the Principal, whose reputa
tion, deportment and guardianship over his pu
pils, afford the best security for their proper
conduct, that the Trustees can give or parents
and guardians demand.
The course of instruction will bo thorough
adapted to the age of the pupil and tho time
he designs to spend in literary pursuits. Young
men may qualify themselves for entering upon
the study of the learned professions or for an
advanced stand at College for mercantile pur
suits, for teaching or the business of common
life, useful will be preferred to ornamental stud
ies, nevertheless so much of the latter attended
to as the advanced stages of the pupil's educa
tion will admit. The male and female depart
ment will be under the immediate superintend

LADIES' COMPANION.
New Volume commenced with the Nov. Number.
A Circulation of 20,000.
THE Ladies' Companion, established in May.,

jle and popular Music, arranged for the Piano-
Forte, and Guitar.
Since the publication ol the number tor May,
the demand for the Ladies' Companion has been
unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine
anticipations. At the commencement of the vol-
i .... . 1
ume an additional number 01 copies were printed,
which was considered at the time adequate to- sa
tisfy all the orders which might be received, and
leave a considerable number on hand lor subse
quent calls. The publisher is more than gratified
m stating that the whole of an edition ot six thou
sand, five hundred copies, was completely exhaus
ted before the issuing of the third number of tho
volume; and, consequently, he was compelled to
reprint a second edition of two thousand copies,
making the circulation of the Ladies' Companion
eight thousand live hundred, at the termination of
the tenth volume, in consequence of this great
and unparalleled increase of new subscribers, he
has determined to commence the new volume for
the ensuing year with thirteen thousand : hoping
that he will thus be enabled to supply all the de
mands for the Ladies' Companion, as well asthoso
disappointed in commencing with the tenth vol
ume, lhe proprietor leels grateiui lor that en
couragement which has been so lavishly bestowed
upon his magazine, and at the same time he beg
to assure lhe readers of the Ladies' Companion,
that it is determined resolution to meet it with a
corresponding liberality to merit its continuance.
The work appears in beautiful new type, printed
on the finest paper ; smoothly pressed, and neatly
stitched in a handsome cover.
The Ladies' Companion contains a larger quan
tity of reading than any other magazine issued in
in this country, and its subscription price is only
three dollars a year, while the great combination
of talent secured for the coming year will render
it unequalled by any other periodical.
Splcnaid Steel Engravings, prepared by Mr. A.
Dick, ornament the work one of which accompa
nies each number. These plates are entirely new,
and are engraved at a heavy expense by one of the
best arstists in America, expressly for the maga
zine. The designs are selected with a view of in
teresting the general reader, and enhancing the
value of the work, for its superior pictoral embel
lishments. It is with pride the proprietor announ
ces that the Ladies' Companion is the only maga
zine published, in which new and elegant steel
plates appear regularly. Those accompanying
other monthly periodicals, are generally first worn
out in annuals. In addition to the engraving
mentioned, a correct plate of the Quarterly Fash
ions for Ladies4 will appear in the une, Septem
ber, December, and March numbers, independent
of the usual embellishment. It is the determina
tion of the proprietor, that these fasliion plates
shall appear in a style hitherto unknown. It lite
rary character will undergo no change, as it will
remain under the charge of the same Editors aa
heretofore. Articles from the pens of the mosi
distinguished writers, will appear in the forthcom
ing numbers, among which may be enumerated tho

The Musical Department of the Ladies' Compa
nion has ever commanded a large share of atten
tion, and has been looked upon with no little in
terest by its readers, and more especially the La
dies, whom the publisher is anxious to please. It
will continue to be a subject of more than usual
care to him, and to the Professor under whoso su
pervision it is placed, to make that portion of the
magazine deserving of the countenance of every
lover ol music.
Tae Work in General. Of every department an
equally careful supervision will be strictly exer
cised by the .hditors, and all appropnato expendi
tures will be liberally bestowed, as it is the de
sign of the publisher, with the aid of his contribu
tors and the advice of his friends to make the La
dies Companion distinguished for the beauty and
accuracy ot its typography, the variety and high
tone of its literary articles, the quality and value
of its music, and the unequal splendor of its pic
toral embellishments, and the accuracy of its quar
terly fashions. The proprietor pledges himself to
use all honorable means to maintainthc superiori
ty which the Ladies' Companion has obtained.
For five years he has steadily pursued a course of
improvement, and he flatters himself that his pre
sent facilities are such as to give the work eminent
advantages over ali other publications
From the foregoing it will be perceived that the
Ladies' Companion embraces every department
