Dress and the Mind.
Oh, be not vain of gorgeous dress,
Place not in gems thy happiness,
For these will pace away;
Hut cherish virtue, wisdom, truth,
These will adorn thy blooming youth,
And cheer thy life's decay.
"Train up a child in the way he
should go," says the proverb, and well
would it be for children generally, if
they were trained in the way they should
go. But alas for the weakness of hu
man nature! parents too often train up
their offspring in a way that brings
much trouble and inconvenience upon
themselves, as well as upon those who
are subject to their management. To
gratify her own pride, and love of dis
play, the fond mother heaps finery upon
little miss, before she is of an age to care
for ornaments on her own account, and
while the doll and baby house would oc
cupy all her little thoughts, if left to
herself, she is taught to consider a new
and fashionable dress as the great thing
to be desired; and do but see how the
little thing tosses her tiny head, decora
ted with flowers or feather—how the
rich frock is displayed, and the lullipu-.
tian foot held out, that strangers may
observe the delicate slipper—how the
culs, which mama or nurse has spent
hours in torturing to their present form,
are shaking from side to side—how
the smile of gratified vanity dimples
the rosy mouth when she hears the
whiseped praises that are lavished upon
her, on account, most likely, of her cost
ly dress. Children, if gond humored,
are always engaging. "Youth, in it
self, is beauty." Why then destroy the
simplicity of the infant mind,. by the per
nicious whisperings of adulation Why I
infuse into the young heart, the danger.
ous love of display Why sow the seed
that will spring up into the baleful
weeds of self-love, pride and extrava
gance"! A judicious mother will see
that all the ornaments of dross are
worthless, compared with a cultivated
mind, and a gentle deportment. Neat
ness of person and attire arc highly to
be emnmended—they are necessary to
the respectability of females; but more
than these are "vanity and vexation of
spirit."
There are now five elements:—carth,
air, fire, water, and—the press!
BEATtrirtm!—At the Webster dinner
in Richmond, the following toast was
drunk with enthusiasm :
"The States of the Union!—Distinct,
like the billows, but one like the sea."

CHINA & QUEENSWARE HOUSE,

imtr, would call the attention of the
Merchants and Residents of Huntingdon and vici
itny, to their stock of
CHINA AND QUEENSWARE,
Which we have no hesitation in saying is the huge
est in the United States, and which, in the greater
part, is made for, and imported by ourselves.
Any person having used Queeneware or China
for a number of years, will notice the general dote
rioration in the quality—this is owing to the great
ly reduced prices. In some of the manufactories,
where a good name has been established, and pride
token in their character, no such inferiority is ob
served—from such houses have we constantly en
deavored to make our stock, and we are determined
to sell our wares as low as any quality, whether
equal or inferior, can be sold in the U. S.
There is a prejudice against Chesnut Street,
raised from a false notion of higher prices. Our
rents on this street are /ewer than on any Other
business street, and nothing else could possibly
make a difference. But no house can succeed
hero that does not keep the best qualities of goods,
and this does not suit all—hence the prejudice.
We have every kind of Wore, from common
Painted Teas, Edged Plates, Mocha, Granite,
Printed, Flowii g Blue, 13,1 c. &c. to the finest China
and Glass.
We Ere dnxitius tct extend our business, and
lake every proper means of doing so—but not ma
king personal application to strangers here, we
have ne other tneans of doing it, than by the aid of
our old friends, by advertising, and by the quality
and prices of our goods.

M 'AL LlS'r It'S
ALL-HEALING OINTMENT:
Insensible Perspiration -
TS the great Evacuation for the impuri
j_ ties of the body. Life cannot be sus
tained
without it. It is thrown off from the
blood and other juices of the bOdy, and
disposes by this means of nearly all the
impurities within us. The language of
scripture, " in the blood is the .life."---
If it ever becomes impure it may be
traced directly to the stoppage of the
" insensible perspiration." Thus we
see all that is necessary when the blood
is stagnant or infected, is to open the
pores and it relieves itself from all
purity instantly. Its own heat and vi,
tality hre,suffieient, without one particle
of medicine, except to open the pores ..
upon the surface. Thus we see the folly
bf taking so much internal remedies.—
All prttetitiehers; however, direct their
efforts to restore the insensible perspira
tion: The Thompsoniah; for instance;
steams; the Hydropathist shrouds
Wet blankets; the Homoeopathist del
out itifintissituals; the AilopaOist blee
and doses us with mercury; and tiii!
blustering Quack gorges us with pills.
I have had physicians, learned in the
profession, I have had ministers of the
Gospel, Judges of the Bench, Aldermen
and Lawyers, gentlemen of the highest
erudition, and multitudes of the poor,
use it in every variety of way, and there
has been but one voice—one united,
universal voice--saying, "M'Allister
your Ointment is good,"
CoristirrnoN. , —lt can hardly be cred
hod that a salve can hate any effect
upon the lungs, seated as they bre With
in the system: But if placed upon the
chest, it penetrates direetlY to the lungs,
setiarates the pbisbhous particles that
are consuming thetn, and expels them
frottt the system. I need not say that
it is eurifig persons of Consumption con
tinually, although we are told that it is
foolishness. I care not what is said, so
long as I can cure several thousand per
sons annually.
HEADACHE.—The salve has cured per•
sons of the Headache of It year's stand:
Mg, and who had it regularly every Week;
so that vomiting often tbok
Deafness and Ear ache are helped(
with like success.
COLD FEET.—Consumption, Liver Com;
plaint, pains in the Side or Chest, falling
off the hair, one or the other, always
accompanies cold feet. It is a suro sign
of disease in the system to have cold feet:
The Salve will cure every case in
Scrofula, Erysipelas, Salt Rheum, Liver
Complaint, Sore Throat, Bronchitis;
Broken or Sore Breast, ties, Chest Dis
, eases, such as Asthma, Oppression;
Pains, also Sore Lips, Chapped Hands,
Tumors, Cutaneous Eruptions, Nervout
Diseases, and of the Spine there is no
Medicine known probably so good.
BURNS.—It is the best thing in the
wbrld for Burns; (Read the directions
around the bbl:)
Pimples on the face, .4Thscnline Skin;
GrbssSlerfiice. , —When there is grossness
or dull repulsiire surface, it begins to
soften until the skin becomes as smooth
and delicate as a child's.
ilreitms.lf parents knew how fatal
tnost medicines were to children taken
inwardly, they would be slow to resort
to them. Especially mercurial lozgn
gesi' called medicated lozenges,' 4 veN
mifuges,' pills,' &c. The truth is, no.
one can tell, invariably, when worms
are present: Now let me say to parents;
that this salVe will always tell if a child
has worms. It will drive every vestige
of them away. (Read the directions
around the box.) There is probably no
medicine on the face of the earth at
once sb sure and so safe in the expul
slop of ivOrms:
OLD SORES.—That some sores are nn
outlet to the impurities of the system,
is because they cannot pass off through
the natural channels of the Insensible,
Perspiration. If such sores are healed
up, the impurities must have some other'
outlet, or it will endanger life. This
salve will always provide for such emer-*
gency.
RHEUMATISM.—AImost every case CU
red with this ointment.
FEvEns.—ln all cases of fever, the
difficulty lies in the pores being locked
up so that the heat and perspiration can
not pass off. if the least moisture could
Ire started; the crisis has passed and the
danger is over. The all-healing oint-*
ment will in all cases of fevers almost
instantly unlock the skin and brings
forth the perspiration.
We have cured cases of Scald Head that
defied every thing known, as well as the
ttbilify of fifteen or twenty doctors.—
One man told us he had spent .jl5OO on
his children without any benefit, when a
felt' boxes of the ointment cured them.
CoaNs.—Occasional use of the ohm- .
ment will always keep corns from grow
ing.. People need never be troubled
with their' if thq *ill use it.
As a fainily inedicine, no man can
measure its value.
