" . OF THE .. J
JciTersosiiaii Republican,
Vtato-Weekly Paper, to be published at Stroudi

' Pike -County, Pa., simultaneously.
"The whole art of Government consists in the ar
of being honest. Jefferson.
. ';TIITS JEFFEIISONIAN REPUBLICAN
in.priuciple, will be all its itle purports, tho rirm
nnJ unwavering advocate of the principles and
doctrinesof ihe democratic party, delineated by
the illustrious Jefferson : the right of the peo
ple to Hunk, 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 auJ uutrammeled Press, conducted in a
spirit worthy of our institutions, is a public bles
sing, a safeguard to the Constitution under which
wo 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 upon
the enlightened citizens of Monroe and Pike to
aid him in this laudable enterprise. The time
has arrived when the Press should take a bold
and faarless stand against the evidently incrcas
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 Jo marine social relations of men
without accomplishing any paramount good.
THE JEFFERSON IAN REPUBLICAN
will not seek to lead or fulljkty faction, or to
advocate and support the. sclffies of any par
ticular set of men. It wilfffeak independent
ly on all State and National questions, award
ing jo eueh that support which its merits may
demand, never hesitating, however, to condemn
such measures, as in the opinion of the editor is
jus'lly 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
uisirate 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 irmly oppose the " 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 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
tive Monarchy.
Jt 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 created equal, 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 do, 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
i ress, because they differ from the majority.
The JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN

The great celebrity of this unrivalled Composi-tion-speciallyin
the .Northern iSofcy leaves
thepr6prieto'r-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
ered. Indeed the speed and certainty of its oper
ations have'the appearance df miracles : as ulcers,
wounds, corns, fever sores, chilblains, white swel
lings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites' &c.;
immediately yield to its apparently super human
influence. Thus if properly applied it will remove
an inveterate, corn or 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
hy 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 tune, 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.ples, he. was governed more by their
brevity; than their contents, as they all breath the
same spirit of eulogy and satisfaction.

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 FaceLips 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.

" I am prepared to say, that for Rheumatic Pains
and the Sore Breasts of females, Harrison's Spe
cific Ointment, lias 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 Potts, of Utica. N Y.
Dated July 28, 1838.
"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 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
4 Spqcific Ointment,' in the curing of burns. A
little boy of mine, 4 years old, fell against the
fire-place ihreo weeks since, when his clothes be-
becaue ignited, and he was instantly enveloped
in flames. After some difficulty the fire was ex-
tingu:shed, but not before the poor little fellow's
ower extremities were almost covered with a con
tinual blister. Having much faith in 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 few hours ; and in ten days
.ad effected a. complete cure. I need scarcely
add that it ought to be in the possession of eve
ry family, as there is no telling when such acci
dents may occur. Ynurs respectfully,

CUEING 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
w,hich sound health can be established. Hun-
tdreds 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 to, because oh 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 thatre-
mainslocal disease cannot be cured.
;,All the medicine jhat is requisite to restore
the body to a state of health is BraridrelKs 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 by
bracing but by removing the cause of weakness,
the gross and corrupt humors of the body.
They require no-change in diet or care of any
kind. Plain directions accompany each box,
so that' every one is his oWn'compctent physi
cian. Remember, none are ecnuins sold bv
druggists.

Celebrated Vegetable Antibilous Pills,
are daily effecting soj?ie of the most astonishing
and wonderful cures thai have ever been known,
the town and country arc filed tcith their praise,
the Palace and Foor-house alike echo with their vir
tues in all climates and under all temperatures
they still retain their wonder ul virtues.
PETERS' VEGETABLE PILLS.
Breathes there the man who may riot be occa
sasionally benefited by the use of Peters'1 Pills
No, assuredly not ; for the human frame, like anv
other 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 firt of well-tested
public opinioil, 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? Cer-
1 i'l 1.1 1
tain iy, lor rue very excess 01 neaitn oegets cer
tain diseases unless duly regulated. If the blot
is suffered to run riot without correcting laxatives,
costiveness, megrin, biles, scurvy, spleen, pimples,
furred tongue, pr 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 ninete.en
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 suddenand
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 1 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 Peters' Pills.
Leaving health out of the question, should poets,
novelists, editors, machinists, and men of genius
and science in general, patronise Peters' Pills 1
Unquestionably, Tor 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.
To what may be attributed these singular and
wonderful effects ? 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 wnichil
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 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 pioud and grate
ful in being able to lay such documents before the
public.
New Orleans, April 24, 1837.
Dear Sir A3 an old classmate of yonrs in Yale
college, I take the liberty of opening a correspon-
idence.
I learn that you are making a fortune by the sale
! of your pills, which I trust is the case as I am ful
jly aware that through them you are conferring a
great blessing on the public.
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 mo 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,
II. M. SllEPERD, M. B.
Clarkcsvillc, Mecklenberg Co., Va., Feb. 7, 1837.
j. 'Dear Sir. I embrace this opportunity of es
;pressing to. you my, pleasure at the unrivalled suc
cess of your pills in this section of the country.
It is the general fault of thpse- 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 praise 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, Sick Headache, de
rangement of the Biliary organs, and obstinate,
constipation of the bowels, I 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
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 I consider your Vegetable Pills an in
valuable discovery. Very respectfully,
S. II' HARRIS, M. 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, Sick Headache, General Debility, and
in all cases have found them to be very effective.
J. 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 effecls in cases of
Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, Bilious Fevers, and
other diseases, produced by inactivity of the liver.
They are a safe and mild aperient, being the
best article of the kind I have ever used.

as the lover of nature will admire it is easily
'accessible the Easton and Milford Stages pass
it daily, and only 8 miles distan Irom 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.

Academy. Mr. Daniel W. Dinjrman, ir. will
take several boarders, his house is very conve
nient, and students will there be under the im

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,
1S34 a popular and highly esteemed magazine: ot
General Literature and 'the Fine Arts; embellish
with gorgeous and costly engravings on steel, and
the Quarterly fashions ; and also with Fashiona
ble and popular Music, arranged for the Piauo
Forte, and Gui'tar-
Since the publication of the number for ?vlay,
the demand for the Ladies' Companion has been
unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine
anticipations. At the commencement of the vol
ume an additional number of copies were printed,
Which was considered at the tune adequate to sa
tisfy all the orders which might be received, and
leave a considerable numher on hand for subse
quent calls. The publisher is more than gratified
ir stating that the whole of an edition of six thou
sand, five 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
etght thousand five hundred, at the termination of
the tenth volume. In consequence of this great
and unparalleled increase of nev! 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
mauds for the Ladies' Compapion, as well .as those
disappointed in commencing wnh4 the tenth, vol
ume. The proprietor fceh grateful for that en
couragement which has Ijecrtso lavishly lestowed.
upbn his magazine,' and at the sahle time he begs
to assure thereaders of the Ladies' Companion,
that it is determined resolution to meet it with a
corresponding Jiberality 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 fs only
three dollars a year, while the great-combination
of talent secured for the comin year will render
it uuequalled by any other periodical.
Splendid Steel Eng ravings, 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 arstTsts in America, expresly' 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 xvorn
out in annuals. In addition fo the engravings
mentioned, a correct plate of the Quarterly Fash
ions for Ladiesl 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 lib
rary character will undergo no change, as it will
remain under the charge of the same Editors as
heretofore. Articles Irom the pens of the most

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 whose su
pervision it is placed, to make that portion of tho
magazine deserving of the countenance of every
lover of music.
Tae Work in General. Of every department an
equally careful supervision will be strictly exer
cised by the Editors, and all appropriate 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 of 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
1 toral, embellishments, and, the accuracy of its quar
terly fashions, f he 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
