JJBKFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN' OF THE' Jeffbrsoniani Republican, flicw Weekly Paper, to be'publishc'd at Strouds burg,. Monroe County, Pa., and mujord, . Pike County, Pa., .simultaneously. "The whole fart of Government consists in the ar - of, being honest. Jefferson, THE JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN in principle, will be all its title purports, the lirm and unwavering advocate ot tne principles ana doctrines of the democratic part)-, delineated by the illustrious Jefferson : the right of the peo ple to thilik, to'speak, and to act, mdependent i:,m ull subjects, holding themselves respon sible to no power for the free, exercise of this righty but- their God, their Country, and .her Laws, winch they themselves have created. A free and untrammeled Press, conducted in a spirit worthy of our institutions, is a public bles sing, asafeguard to the Constitution under which we Jive, and it should l)e cherished and support ed by every true republican. Such, then, it is designed to make the . papec now estab lished, .and" as such, the publisher calls upon the enlightened citizens of Monroe and Pike to aid him in lhis laudable enterprise. The time has arrived when the Press should take a bold and faarless stand against the evidently increas ing moral and political degeneracy of the day, and endeavor, by a fair, candid, and honorable course, to remove those barriers whioh section al prejudices, party spirit, and party animosity have reared to mar the social relations of men without accomplishing any paramount good. THE JEFFERSOiN I AN 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 Slate and National questions, award ing to each that support which its merits may demand, never hesitating, however, to condemn such 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, Martix 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 the " Independent Trea sury" Scheme, atid-air other schemes having for their object tbe concentration in the hands of oTiemaiffahd that man.the President ofthe Nation, all power .overthe public moneys, a power,, which, when combined with -that -vested in him by the 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 the Executive of the British Nation, and in short make our Government, de facto an Elec- live Monarchy. It will ever maintain that the welfare of our Country and the preservation of her Republican Institutions should be the first and only senti ments 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 are createdequal, and, therefore, should alike enjoy the privileges conferred on them by the Constitution without being subject to proscrip tion, or coerced bv the influence of party. The. columns' of the JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN will ever be open to the free discussion of all political questions, believing as we dp, that there is no liberty where both sides may not be heard, and where one portion 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 witn whicn tney are connected. The Farmer, the Merchant, the Mechanic, and the Laborer, will each' find a friend m the columns "of the JEFFERSONIAN REPUB L1CAN. ' Due care will be taken toumish its readers with the latest Foreign and Domestic News 'and such Miscellaneous reading as will be both interesting and instructive. In short it isdesiifnc'd,to make the paper worthy, of an ex tensive patronage-, both from the strictly moral tone which it will ever possess, and the efforts t)f 'the editor to make it a good and useful Family Newspaper. '' The JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN will be printed on ,a super-royal sheet of good duality, and with erood type.

The great celebrity of this unrivalled Composi tion specially in, the Northern States. leaves tbe proprietor but little need to say any thing in its favor; for it has been generally conceded id it, that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for external complaints that has ever been discov ered. Indeed the speed and certainty of its, oper ations have the appearance of miracles : asulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores, chilblains,. white swel lings, biles, piles, spider and snake biles &c immediately yield to its apparantly super human influence. Thus if properly applied it will remove an inveterate, corn or break arid heal a bile in five days, will allay and perfectly cure an dicer in two weeks; and the most desperate cases of white swelling thatcan be imagined, have been destroyed by it in less than two months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its efficacy is .truly surprising; and even in the bite of a rabid dog, lor if applied in time, its powers of attraction are so wonderful that they will at onte.arrest the poison and thus prevent it from pervading, the system. It is like wise greatly superiorto 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" rriay fall to the lot of man or beast. The proprietor has jeceived at least a thousand certificates and other documents, in favor of his Specific Ointment" upwards a hundred of which were written by respectable members ofthe Med ical Faculty ; and in selecting from this pile the following samples, he was governed more by their brevity, than their contents, as they all breath the same spirit.of eulogy and satisfaction. 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.

"Harrison's 'Specific Ointment" is, in my opin ion, a most important discovery; and is particular ly efficient in scrofulas, ulcers, sore legs, erup tions, and general outward complaints, speak of its merits froni 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 yqhr 'Specific Ointment, in the .curing of burns. A little boy of mine,4earstoia,; fell against the fire-place threr weeks since, when his clothes be- beCaue ignited, and he was instantly enveloped irr flames. After some difficulty the fire was ex tinguished, but not before the poor little fellow's owet extremities were almost covered with a con tinual blister. Having much faith in your oint ment, I immediately purchased three boxes, which applied unsparingly, according to your direc tions in such cases : and it is with great pleasure and gratitude, that I ani able to inform you that it allayed the pain m a few hours.; and in ten days ad effected a complete cure.

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. Hun dreds of individuals have become convinced of this doctrine, and are daily acknowledging the )ractice to be the best ever discovered. Now is the unhealthy season when our bodies are table to be affected with disease; and now is the time the state of the stomach and bowels should be attended to, because on the healthy state of those organ's 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 BrandretlCs Veg etable Universal Pills, which have performed cures upon thousands of helpless and hopeless persons, alter tne usual scienunc skiii oi pny 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. 1 he weak and del icate will be strengthened by their use, not by bracing but by removing the cause of weakness, me gross ana corrupt numors. oi tne oouy.

KEEP IT BEFORE tfHE PEOPLE. Doct. Joseph Priestly Peters' Celebrated "Vegetable Antibilous Pills, are daily effecting some of the most astonishing ajid wonderful cures that have ever been known, the town and country are filed with their praise, tjie Palace and Poor-house alike echo with their vir tues in all cliniates and under all temperatures they still retain their wonderful virtues. -PETERS' VE GETABLE'PILBS. Breathes there, the man who may not be occa sasionally benefited by the use of Pelcrs Pills I No, assuredly not ; for the human frame, like any other structure, will fall into confusion and ruin, if neglected; but, by the aid of medicine judi ciously applied, t is enabled. to preserve a. heal thy, and e.ven tone;, and it is the firt of well-tested public opinion, that Dr. Peters1 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 Cer tainly, for the very excess of health begets cer tain diseases unless duly regu)ated. If the blood is suffered to run riot Without correcting laxatives, costiveness, megrin, 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 Jiealthy men have an antipathy to the very name of medicine! And ho 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 ? expels headaches, fevers, blue devils, blotches, pimples, &c. &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 cairiage ; and hence, when you see a lady with" a cheek of velvet softness, a pure lily and carnaiion complexion, and an easy & grace ful bearing, the general inference to be drawn is, that she is4her own physician, and very particular in the choice of her medicine ; and the especial one, that she is a patron of Peters' Pills. Leaving health out of the question, should poets, novelists, editors, machinists, and men of genius and science in general, patronise Peters' Pills 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 imperfectibilty of their mortal abode as Dr. Peters' pills. lo 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 wnich 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 regular supply of Pe ters' Pills. More than six 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 ol 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 erhcacy of his pills, lie feels pioud and crate 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 j dence. i I learn that you are making a fortune by the sale ot. your pills, which I trust is the case as I am lul lv nwafn t n m t t Itwuirrli hmn vrtu n ro pnnln rmrr o I myself am among those who have been pecul iarly 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 I acknowledge it with gratitude,) a few box es of your pills have completely restored me. I would add that their effect upon Sick Headache, and sour stomach is almost miraculous. With sentiments of esteem, H. M. SHEPERD, M. p. Clarjcesiille, Mccftenbcrg Co., Va:1, Feb. 7.1837. Dear Sir. I embrace this opportunity of ex pressing to you my pleasure at the unrivalled suc cess jqypui pjlls injhisj section ofthe country. It is the general fault? c'f those who vend patent medicines to say too much in their favor ; but in regard to your pills I am firmly persuaded that they deserve- far more prai'ge'than you seem in clined to give them. Six months ago they were scarcely known here, and yet at present there is no other medicine that can "compare with them in popularity. In Dyspepsia, .ick Headache", de rangement of the Biliary organs, and obstinate constipation ofthe bowels-, 1 know of no aperient more prompt and efficacious;., and I have had con siderable experience in all these complaints 1 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, SH- HARRIS, Af. D. Charlotte, N. C, January 1, 1837 Dear Sir I have made frequent use of your pills in the incipient stage of Bilious Fever, and obstinate constipation of the bowels; also in the enlargement of the -Spleen, Chronic Diseases of the Liver, bick Headache, General Debility, and in all cases have found them to be very effective. J. D.BOYD, M. D. MecMcnbcrg Co., Va., February 7. 1837. Having used Dr. Peters'.

The Trustees of this Institution, have the pleasure of announcing '.o the public, and par ticularly to the friends of education, that they have engaged Ira B. Newman, as Superinten dent and Principal of their Academy. The Trustees invite the attention of parents and guardians, wbo have children to send from home, to this Institution. They are fitting 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 ot nature will admire it is easily accessible the Easion andMilford Stages pass it daily, and only 8 miles distah' from the latter place, and a more salubrious -ection 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 V. 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 Ladies' Companion, established in May, 1834 a popular and highly esteemed AiagiUi.-ifc of General Literature and the i'ineArts; emUt-thah with gorgeous and costly engravings un steel, and the Quarterly fashions; and also With Fashiona ble and popular Music, arranged lor i(.e Piano. Forte, and Guitar. . . Since the publication ol the nuxneer -ir ;ay, the demand for the Ladies' Companion jias'ceeu unprccede'nted. and beyond the. most ; 'sanguine anticipations. At the commencement of the vol ume an additional number of copies were printed, vhich was considered at thetime adequate to sa tisfy all the orders which might be received, and leave a considerable number on hand for subse quent calls. The publisher is more than gratified ir stating that the whole of an edition of six thou sand, live hundred copies, was completely exhaus ted before the issuing of the third number of the volume; and, consequently, he was compelled to reprint a second edition of two thousand copies, making the circulation of the Ladies' Companion eight thousand five hundred, at the termination of the tenth volume. Jn consequence of this great and unparalleled increase of new subscriber, ho has determined to commence the new volume lor 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 as those disappointed in commencing with ihe tenth vol ume. The proprietor feels grateful for that en couragement which has been so lavishly bestowed upon his magazine, and at the same- time he begs to assure the readers of the. Ladies' Companion, that it is determined resolution to meet it with a corresponding liberality to merit it's continuance'. The work appears m beautiful new type, printed on the finest paper smoothly pressed, and neatly stitched in a handsome cover. The Ladies' Companion contains ir 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 csmin" year will render it unequalled by any other periodical. Splendid Steel .ngravtngs, 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 ofthe best arstists in America, expressly for the maga zine. The designs are selected with a view ol in teresting the general ,reader, and- enhancing the value of the work, for its superiOiTpictoral 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 engravings mentioned, a correct plate of the Quarterly Fash ions for Ladiest will appear in the June;. Septem ber, December, and March numbers, independent of the usual embellishment. It is the determina tion of the proprietor, that these fashion plates shall appear in a style hitherto unknown, it iiu rary character will undergo no change, as it will remain under the charge of the same Editors'aa heretofore. Articles lrom the pens of the mos-' distinguished writers, will appear in the fortlirorli1 ing numbers, among which may be enumerated the following: Mrs. Holland, Emma C. Embury, Lydia H.

The Musical Department of the Ladies' Compa nion has ever commanded a large share of atten tion, arid 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 whose su pervision it is placed, to make that portion of the magazine deserving of the countenance of every lover of music. Tac Work in General. Of every department an equally careful supervision will be strictly exer cised by the Editors, and all appropriate expe:.ci tures will be liberally bestowed, as it is the de sign ofthe 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 of its typography, the variety and high tone of its literary articles, the quality and value i rr lie men nnn inp niinnnni cnifmnnr fir iis nin f . - ... -i i I c i" "',,.'

The proprietor pledges himself to use all honorable means to maintainthe 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 tho Ladies' Companion embraces every department within the range of Belles-Lettres and the Fino Arts; and no exertions or expense will be deemed too great to render Jhe work equal to any otlier extant. The flattering and general testimonials of nearly every contemporary journal in the United States, and in fact, many on the other side ofthf Atlantic, have strongly as'serted the undeniabh claims of the Ladies' Companion to tho suppori ' the public generally.
