J. Counterfeiter in Trouble. David
TJtts, an enterprising gentleman re
cently offered a counterfeit 100 bill
to pay his fare on the Illinois River
steamboat Ion. 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.

Axn Gordon, formerly of Stroud township,

that many of the new styles in them

pronounced by the Committee of Printers, ap
pointed to examine Types and Specimens, to
be superior to any Wood Types ever before ex

Stagnation of the Blood.
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.
Dr- Brandrcth's Office for the exclusive sale of
his Vegetable Universal Pills, in Philadelphia, is

box.

ety of choice Literary, Scientific, and News Mat
ters, ol a character calculated to prove instruc
tive and entertaining to the Family Circle. The

no other newspaper in the United States.

additional correspondentsjof high repuiation'has
been secured for the coming volume. We fear
lessly assert, that forthe ensuing twelve months
we shall bo enabled to furnish a mass of valua
ble literary matter, not exceeded in interest by
tne contents ot any similar newspaper in the

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

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.

" I am prepared to say, that for Rheumatic Pains
and the Sore Breasts of females, Harrison's1 Spe

any equal, in the whole catalogue of external me
dicines, as known and prescribed in this country."

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.

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.
