DIED.
In this borough, on the morning of the 19th
inst., Mr. Plume READ, aged about 21 years.
In West township, cn the morning of the 16th
inst., Mr. Juno BOOST, aged about 45 years.
In West township, on the 13th inst., Mr. SAM
URI. IttTON, a highly respected citizen, aged
about 50 years.
[The following tribute to the memory of Mr.
SAMVEL Lay's, by a young friend of this borough,
was handed in too late for insertion in our last
paper, which contained the announcement of his
death.—En.]
For the Joternal.
Mr. Levis was a native of Delaware county,
Pa.; was graduated at Dickinson College in the
class of 1817, taking the first honor. Since that
time he has been a member of the Engineer corps
Pennsylvania Rail Road, stationed at Birming
ham. When death strikes down a friend, and
when, too, that sue is sifted with high and no
ble oualities, we are afflicted with a double pang;
sorrow deep and abiding, such as none but those
who have been deprived of one bound by the
closest ties can feel, fillour hearts with sadness.
The feeling produced among his friends and as
sociates by the announcement of his untimely
departure, evince that he was universally es
teemed. We mourn that not only we are de
prived of the pleasure and profit of his inter
course, but our sympathy extends to his family,
bereft of a faithful and affectionate son and broth
er. Society has lost an ornament, and his im
medi'.to acquaintances a friend whom to know
way to lov • and respect.
Endo wee with talents of a superior order,
truly desir nun to play an honorable pert in the
great dra , ea of human life, had he not been cut
down in the bloom of his existence, his prospect
of future usefulness was bright and cheering.—
His disposition kind and conciliating endeared
him to all those with whom he had any inter
course. But he has passed from among us, yet
Ida virtues live after him, end long will they and
his memory alike be cherished by those who
lint the gond fortune to be his friends.
g , Green be the turfabove thee,
Friend of my better days,
None knew thee bat to love thee,
Nei named thee. but to praise.
“Tho Ugh memory bids me weep thee,
Nor thoUghts nor words are free,
The grief is fixed too deeply,
That mourns a man like thee ”

The undersigned Committee of this I3oard
take pleasure in commending the Institution to
the confiddhee of the public and the patronage
of parents who would secure for their daughters
the advantages of a thorough and liberal edu
cation.
The Chambersburg Female Seminary has
long occupied an elevated position in the public
estimation as a school of uncommon merit. It
has contributed in no small degree to elevate the
standard of female education in our country, to
deepen and extend the conviction of its import
ance; and to furnish incontestable proof of the
advantages which such a system, properly con
ducted, is destined to confer on a community.
Such evidence has been amply furnished in the
history of this Institution. It has been emi
nently successful in training the minds and dis
ciplining the affections of not a few who are
now filling with dignity responsible stations in
the domestic and social circles of life, and who
are exerting an efficient influence on the well
being of society.
Of the young Ladies who have charge of the
Institution, the Committee deem it needless to
speak in the way of commendation. Their
character, and qualifications as teachers, are of
the highest order. We can therefore, safely say
to parents who wish to place their daughters at
Boarding School, that this is an institution to
which they may send them with entire confi
dence that they will be watched over with ma
ternal care and furnished with every requisite
felicity for receiving an accomplished Christian
education.

DJ WHAT IS THE MATTER with
me, Doctor? What is the cease of this sallow
complexion, jaundiced eye, depression of spirits;
pain in the side and shoulder, weariness of body,
hitter mote M the Mouth? loch is the inquiry,
and ouch the symptoms of mane a sufferer! It
is the liver which is diseased, and the Cholagogtie
is the remedy always successful in curing it.
Try it. and judge for yourself. For fade by
above named agents.
[t . , BETTER DIE THAN LIVE, if
I arn to be tortured from day to day with this
horrible Ague, exclaims the poor auffeier whose
life hos become a burden from the rocking parox
yams of an intermittent. and whose confidence
in human aid is deetroyed by the failure of rem
edies to produce ill, promised relief. Such hoe
been the situation of thousands who are now
rejoicing in all the blessings of health from the
ure of Dr. Ongood's India Cholognaue. In no
instance does it fait . to effect a ipordy and perma
nent cure. Por role by nbuve named agents.
~ How few who think aright among the thinking
HOW many never think, but only think they do."
0::7 THE SENTIMENT IMPLIED
in the above exclamation is on no subject more
fully exemplified than on that of health. But
few gtvo it a single thought. and fewer still re.;
fleet upon it with :he observation and good sense
which matters of minor consequence receive:
As observation teaches the tact that Dr. Osgood's
India Cholagogue is a never failing remedy in
Fever and Ague, good souse would surely indi;
mite its prompt and immediate use. For sale by
the above named agents.
