Huntingdon Acadenty. An examination of the pupils, closing with exercises of reading and speaking, original, and select pieces, took place on Friday last. The performance was cred• itable to the teacher, Mr. Orr, and to the pupils generally. It was evident, how ever, that some of them had been more at tentive and studious than others. The audience, which was respectable, appear ed much pleased with the exercises. The terms of tuition are so low, none exceeding four dollars per quarter, some of the branches less; it is strange that more do not avail themselves of the op portuhity of acquiring an education at sol cheap a rate.

A prof ligate young man who became enraged, because he had been made a subject of special prayer, by a converted companion, threw a stone at the man who had prayed for him, as he passed out of the church. The stone struck the head of brother Gris well, who was at the same time near the door, and fractured his scull. He died in a few hours. The young man who committed the the rash malignant deed, had been committed to prison.—Phila Bap. Record.

A CANINE POSTBEARER,—The Derby ' mail is met every morning, at ten o'clock, by a dog from an extensive ironworks atl Workshop, waiting to be the bearer of the letter bag for his master, which is regular ly dropped by the guard without waiting. It, however, the canine messenger is not somewhere about at ten, the horn is sound ed, and the dog is immediately observed in the distance cominm along the rogrl watt att meet' toe man at the lane-end ;but thik is very seldom the case, as the dog usually seats himself upon the wal! adjoining the works, listening for the approach of the mail. When the bag is thrown down the faithful creature, with out delay, invariably takes the nearest way home through the hedge and over the fields. Later in the day the empty bag is brought back by the dog to meet the mail; the guard not getting off his seat, it is necessary to send a person with the bag, who can throw it upon the mail while it is going. The dog, feeling his inability to supply the deficiency, denotes his anx iety by barking and howling. With this exception the animal performs all the du ties of a letter carrier for his master “with punctuality and despatch."—English pa per.

A CURE AND PREVENTITIVE OF Des- EASE•—Brandreth's Universal Vegetable Pills are no less a cure than a preventitive of diseases. Whrn we feel dull, pain in the head, back, or side, weary on the least exertion, it is then we ought to take a dose of these Pills. This will always have a good effect; because it is impossi ble for pain to be in the body without the presence of those humors which produce it —it is only by their being forced out by purging that health can be restored. It is at all time easirer to prevent than to cure disease—because by taking a pie ventative course we do not debilitate the natural faculties of the body, but rather assist and sttengthen them. The pecu liar action of Brandreth's Vegetable Uni versal Pills is to cleanse the blood from all impurities, remove every cause of pain or weakness, and restore the constitution to perfect health and vigor. Purchase the above medicine of STEwArcr, Huntingdon, & only of Agents published is another part of this paper.
