Alexander's Express Messenger,
Furnishes regularly the fullest and earliest diges
ted compend of Domestic and Foreign News. A,
the British Steamers almost invariably arrive at
the end or beginning of the week, the Messenger,
which goes to press on Wednesday, has the exclu
sive advantage ol the intelligence brought by them.
Reports of all the important proceedings of Con
gress, and the different State Legislatures are ful
ly recorded by regular correspondents employed
for that purpose.
The literary contributions to the Messenger,
cither in Poetry or Prose, are among the ablest
and most talented writers in the country. Is there
any reason, therefore, that it should not maintain
the enviable reputation of being the cheapest, most
useful, and interesting Family Newspaper in the
world? The contents of the Messenger arc so se
lected and arranged that the The Farmer, 'Hie Me

well stored columns both instruction and enter

they never would be without it in their families,
as children are subject at all times to Worms.
Dr. Leidy's Worm Tea is composed of veg
etables altogether, and may be given to chil
dren of all ages. Directions accompany each
paper or package.
Children suffer much, of times, from so many
things being given them for worms, without any
effect. " Much medicine, given to children, has
a tendency to destroy their general health, and
they are more or less delicate ever after.
To avoid the necessity of .giving medicine
unnecessarily when you are certain your chil
dren have worms give them at first Dr. Leidy's
Worm Tea. It is all that is necessary.
Reference might be made to several hundred
parents in Philadelphia city and county, of the
efficacy of Dr Leidy Worm Tea. Try it and
you will be convinced.
Price 12 1-2 cents a small, and 25 cents a
large package. Prepared only, and for sale'
wholesale and retail, at Dr. Leidy's Health

pents,) Philadelphia.

We have tried Doctor Jos. Priesley Peters' Ye
getable Pills, and have no hesitation in pronounc
ing them the best Antwilious Medicine that we
have ever used in our families. We are acquaint
ed with several families in this city who give them
the preference to all other kinds, on account of
their mildness, and at the same time, certainty of
action. New-1 or: Examiner.
More than ten millions of boxes of these truly
valuable Antibilious Pills have been sold in the
United States, Canadas, West Indies, Mexico, and
Texas, since the first of January, eighteen hun
dred and thirty-five.
Hundreds audthousands bless the day they were
induced by the persuasion of a friend, to try a Box
of Doctor Peters' Pills.
They arc in use as a Family Medicine, and all
who have used them give them the preference to
all other kinds, on account of their being a safe,
pleasant, and easy aperient being mild in their
action at the same time; though, in their operation,
producing neither sickness, griping, nor debility.
Doct. Jos. Priestley Peters,
Dear Sir: I have used your valuable
Pills these last four years, in cases of Dyspepsia.
Liver Complaint, and Sick Head-ache, and have
found them, in a majority of cases, the most valu
able Pills 1 have ever used.
JOHN CASE, M. D.
For Sick or Nervous Head-ache, or Bilious Fe

to all other kinds.

The price affixed to this work is less, when the

NOTICE
Oi those who arc about to build
or repair.
The umdersigned respectfully informs tho
public that he is duly authorised to sell the
Right of the Johnson Re-acting Water wheel,
to the counties of Monroe and Pike, patented
the 22d day of June, A. D. 1840.
The Johnson re-acting wheel is the best now
in use to propel a saw mill; it excels any other
wheel in the United States under a low water
head; under a head from 5 to 7 feet is suffi
cient to cut from 2 to 3000 feet in twelve hours
of inch or any other boards with ease. The
wheels require, under a 7 foot head, 140 inches
of water and so in proportion to any other head.
Under a 7 loot head, the Saw will make from
200 to 250 strokes per minute. The advan
tage which those wheels have over any other
wheels is, that it requires but four posts to make
the Room or bulk head; the wheels are hung oi
the crank shaft. Two wheels are what is re
quired for a Saw mill, and the posts planked in
side the same as a pen stock. I have built ona
of those mills this season, on the Roaring
Rrook, in Luzerne county, for Mr. S. P. Tern
plin, tinder about a 7 foot head, which will cut
from 3 to 4000 in twelve hours of inch boards;
therefore, 1 can recommend them as the best
wheels now in operation. There are several
more mills in that part, all under low heads,
which answers the same purpose as that of Mr.
Templins. For further information, please cah
on the subscriber.
