Capt. Simon Drum and Lieut. Richard IL L
Johnston,
The Westmoreland Intelligencer sayr;:
Our columns are, this week, clothed in
mourning, as a token of respect for the
two gallant officers whose names head
this article, and who fell in the late
battles before the walls of Mexico, in
defence of their country's honor. We
sympathise deeply with their bereaved
parents and relatives.
There is consolation, however, in the
reflection that, they fell at their posts in
the discharge of a high and sacred trust;
nobly and heroically sustainig the hon
or and flag of the Republic; and whilst
their many amiable qualities, and valor
ous bearing on the battle-field, will re.
main long green in the memories of sur
viving comrades and friends, may their
ashes, though inured in a far distant
land, repose in peace.
TO KEEP APPLES--.We find the follow
ing valuable directions in an old paper:
"Put them in casks or bins, in layers,
well covered with city sand, each layer
being covered. This preserves them
from the air; their moisture being ab
sorbed by the sand; at the same time, it
preserves the flavor of the apples and
prevents their wilting. Pippins have
been kept in this matrnor sound and
fresh, till mid-summer, and how much
longer they would have kept is not
known. Any kind, of sand w!ll answer,
but it must be perfectly dry."
WIS PA R'S BALSAM OF WILD
CHERRY.—In endeavoring to impress upon the
minds of cur citizens the superior efficacy of this
involuab!e remedy for Consumption and Pulmo
nary Diseases in general, we wish to assure our
readers that we are actuated solely by a desire to'
benefit the afflicted. Our faith in the remedy is
founded upon the universal success attending its
dee, and we fully believe that the most faithless
and incredulous, after witnessing its surprising
virtues, will no torrger doubt that Consumption
may and can be cured."
Such indeed is the fact, and so astonishing have
been the cures effected by the Balsam, that it may
in justice tie considered the greatest triumph in the
"healing art" that has yet been achieved. And we
are well satisfied, from our experience, that there
aro thousands now lingering upon the brink of the
grave under a disease of the lungs, in some form',
who may be rescued from an early death, and re
stored to perfect fresith by the timely use of this
medicine.

WRIGHT'S INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLLS
are a safe, easy and certain cure for cold cad
coughs; because they carry oft by the stomach
nod bowels, those morbid humors, which, if de
posited upon the lungs, ore the cause of the above
dangerous complaints. A single 25 cent box of
said Indian Vegetable Pills is generally sufficient
to make a perfect cure of the moat obstinate cold—
at the same time the digestion is improved, and
the blood so completely purified, that new life and

, EWe the undersigned Ninety!'le of the Public
tchnola et Philadelphia, recommend Hurd's
Grammatical Corrector," as a work eminent y cal
culated, not only to prevent the formntfon of incor
rect modes of expression, but to eradicate those al
ready acquired. It contains nearly two thousand
of those common errors of speech which are not
provided for in Eng ish Grammars, and hence is.('
very great irme-tance es supplying a vacuum in
our list of ailed becks. Such a work is much
needed in our Schnole', end we hope the °Correct

merits so justly entitle it.

Hurd merits much praise for his indefatigable labors
in this departtnent.—N. Y. Tribune.
"This work is precisely such a one as the com
munity has long needed. It should be in the hands
of all. Few persons will bo able to look into its
neatly printed pages. without perceiving express
rime; with which their own lips are familiar, and
the inelegance or inaccuracy of which they have
never suspected "--Phil, Nl irit of the Times.
