It was detected by the clerk and he ordered to change it, when he denied that he had any more money or any baggage. Thereupon he was searched and another bad $100 bill with several half eagles and half dullars were found upon him. Next his trunk turned up, and was found tn contain an assortment of bad and some good coin. He was hand ed over to the nearest Grand Jury as an interesting subject for further in vestigation. Miss Whitecar, about IS years of ao-e, committed suicide at Bndgewa ter Oneida county, on Sunday week by hanging herself. It appears that a young man by the name ot .benja min had for some months been pay ing his addresses to Miss Whitecar, and that they were to be married on the Thursday following her death; but Benjamin suddenly changed his rnind and left her. She took it much to heart, and on Sunday evening, af ter she had declared her intentions of destroying herself, went a short dis tance from the dwelling of Mr. Sea ger, in whose family she resided, and suspended herself from the tree with a silk handkerchief. She was a girl of good character, and her death can only be attributed to the desertion of a heartless fellow. MARRIED, At Hope, N. J. on the Sih ult., Mr. Hezeki ah D.

The repeated changes in the atmosphere, by act ing as they do upon the consistence and quality of the blood, give occasion for the most fatal and ma lignant disorders. The blood from a state of health becomes stagnant and is plunged into a state of corruption. , Thus it loses its purity: its circulation is impe ded; the channels of life are clogged; the bowels be ome costive, and if not an immediate attack of some malignant fever, headache, nausea, loss of appetite, and a general debility of the whole frame dre sYire to follow. It requires the tempest and the tornado to bring about a state of purity in the ocean, when it3 wa ters become stagnant; and it will require repeat ed evacuation by the stomach and bowels before tnc blood can be relieved ot its accumulated im purity. Brandrellh V cgeidble Universal Pills, should be taken, then there will be no danger: be cause they puree from the stomach and bowels these humors which aro the cause of stagnation, cleanse the blood from all impurities, remove every cause of pain or weakness, and preserve the consti tution m a stato ot hkalth and vigor that caunual changes cannot effect.

The great celebrity of this untivttRt Coiuiil " tion especially in the Northern Sfcito the proprietor but little need to stfy any rhfrriV its favor: for it has been generally conceded u it, that it ig beyond all comparison th; best remedy for external complaints that has ever been discov ered. Ind32U the peed and certainty of its oper ations have the appearance of miracles : as ulcery, wounds, corns, fever aores, chilblains, white swel lings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites . immediately yield to its apparent! v s.-j-cr on influence. Thus if properlv applied ii vi'ii ifra an inveterate, com or bieak and heth'k OHoS days, v:ii allay and perfectly cure nna1l&ififfij& weeks ; and the moat dfesperatc cases ofmii swelling that can be imagined, have been dslfed by it in less than two months. In the ImcC of poisonous reptiies its efficacy is trulv surprising and even in the bite of a rabid dor, lor if applied in time, its powers of attraction are so woiwlcrfel that they will at once arrest tho poison and thus prevent it from pervading the system. It is like wise greatly superior to any medicine tieretoflbre discovered forthe chafed backs and limbs of horses for tetters, ring worms, chapped Hps, and hi short for every external bodily evil that may fail to the lot of man or beast. The proprietor has received at least a thtat&inti 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 vha. following samples, he was governed more by their brevity, than their contents, as they all breetlrtba same spirit of eulogy and satisfaction. CERTIFICATES, Albany, July 9. 1S37, To. Dr Harrison, Sir- I use your Specific Ofnt raent in my practice and cordially recommend h as a most efficient remedy for Tumors, Ulcers, White Swellings, Scrofula, Rheumatic Pains, Chapped Face, Lips and Hands ; and for general and external complaints. I 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. RUFUS R.

" I am prepared to say, that for Rheumatic Pains and the Sore Breasts of females, Harrison's1 Spe cific Ointment has no superior, if indeod it has 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 2S. If38. "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, gpeak oi its merits from' an experience of four years " Cincinnati, Ohio, Oct. 4, 183S. -To Dr. Harrison, Dear Sir, I wriio to con gratulate you on the extraordinary virtue of yom ' Specific Ointment,' in the curing of burns. A little boy of mine, 4 years old, fell acrainst tho fire-place three weeks since, when his clothe te becaue ignited, and he was instantly enveluped in flames. After some difficulty the "fire wa3 ex tinguished, but not before the poor little fellow's lower 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 had effected a complete cure. 1 need scarcely add, that it ought- to be in the possession of eve ry family, as there is no telling when such accip dents may occur. Yours respectfully, H. M. SHEPHARD. A supply of this valuable Ointment just received and for sale, by ' f SAMUEL STOKES. Stroudsburg, Nov. 6, 1S-10. CURING PRACTICE. The principle of purifying the body bv 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 practice to be the best ever discovered. Now is the unhealthy season when our bodies aro liable to be afiected with disease; and now is the time the state of the stomach and bowels should be attended to, because on the healthy stato 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 Brandreth's Veg etdble 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 assuraiico that they could do no more'. The properties of theso Pills as ahti-bilious and aperient medicine, are unriv.alled; all who -use them recommend , thorny their virtues surpass all eulogy, and must be used to be appreciated. The weak and del icate will be strtngthened by their use, not by bracing out oy removing the cause ot weakite-h the gross an.l corrupt humors, of ih hmfJ They require no change in diet or care of Uf kind. Plain directions accompany each hn. so that every one is his own competent phvij cian. Remember, none are genuine sohi by druggists. DR.
