    MEDICAL NOTICE.
Dr. James Snyder, of Ohio, would inform
,all invalids, of central Pennsylvania, that he
scan be consulted at his rooms, as follows, viz ;
_.
HUNTINGDON, Rail Road Hotel, Thursday and
Friday, December 9th and 10th.

Dr. Snyder's method of arriving at disease, as
well as his mode of treatment, differs from all oth
ers of the various Schools and systems now prac
ticed. The success of which, in treating old com
plaints for the last twenty years, has gained him
a popularity unequalled by any other practitioner
in this country.
Aside front Ohio, where his practice has been
the most extensive, he has treated hundreds of the
most hapless cases in the following cities. towns,
and surrounding country, viz Rochester, Au
burn, Syracnse, Cazinovia, Binghamton, Owego,
Couttlandville. Mica, Elmira, Bath, Penn, Yan,
and many others in the State of Now York; De
troit, Michigan; Erie. New Castle, Butler, Free
port, Kittanning, Creat Western, Blairsville, and
others, in Western Pennsylvania.
As Jr. Snyder rests his claim to public confi
dence entirely on the merits of his practice, all he
asks is a trial to convince the most sceptical, that
cures can be effected in many cases where relief
has been sought in vain, in the common walks of
medicine. All those whose cases are beyond the
reach of his remedies will he so informed on their
first application, without their incuring any ex
pense.
As Dr. S. gives his whole attention to treating
chronic disease, lie is familiar with all the diseas
es of this country, assuming that form. For fut.-
titer particulars call at his rooms as above. No
CHARGE FOR CONSULTATION.
Wednesday and
Dr. S. will repeat his visits regularly. once in
four or five weeks, of which due notice will be
given. Dec. 2, 's2.—tf.

the pen of Mr. Willis, and one that we believe
(at this period of taste for pieturings of rerl life)
will be pre-eminent y attractive. He proposes to
give a series of sketches descriytive of
Country-life within City-reach.
Our readers are acquainted with one successful
effort in this class of writing. His "Letters from
under a Bridge" described mere country life, as
experienced in a remote retirement on the Sus
queliannali. For the last year or two he has been
taking advantage of the new facilities given by
improvements in railroads and steamboats—uni
ling the repose and beauty of rural lilb with the
comforts and advantage of easy access to the city.
He finds mach in this which is new. It forms a
combination of the desirable qualities of the true
modes of life which he thinks well worth &seri.

64 Napoleon and his .111arshals."—
$1,25.
Scott and Jackson are here placed together as
the two military men who have made the deepest
impressions on their country since the time of
Washington. They both achieved a brilliant re
putation in the war of 1812, and by the battles of
Chippewa, Niagara, New Orleans, etc., gave
their country a reputation at home and abroad,
and though differing widely in some characteris
tics, they were very similnr in others. The auth
or has not only sketched the biography of each,
but has given a faithful end graphic description of
the brilliant battles in which they were engaged.
The biography of Winfield Scott, which consti
tutes the greater part Of the volume, is full and
authentic, the materials for it having been derived
from public documents and from many officers
who had selveil under Scott. It presents to the
read& alsii a panoraMic view of the brilliant cam
paign of Mexico, embracing the storming and ca
pitulation of Vera Cruz, the battles of Cerro Om ,
do, Chin abuse°, Contreras, Molino del Rey,.Cha
pultepec, storming of Mexico, Triumphal Entry;
with description of the scenery, personal inci
dents, etc. The author has fully sustaihed the
reputation acquired by "Napoleon and his Mar
shals," anti other work's, of which over 200,000
volumes have been sold.

a Tale for the South. and North, by
Rev. B. R. Hall. author of “Some
ling for Everybody," "J'eew Pur
chase," ctc. 1 vol. 12mo. 75c.
This work, while it advocates the cause of the
African, would do justice to the South. It would
awaken sympathy, but not excite wrath, nor turn
pity/for the Negro into vengeance against the
not inculcate treason under pretence of love
and freedom. it would have love do the work of
hate. It will be marked with the characteristics
of the author, so well known to the public by his
previous works, of whom it wits said in the publi
cation of "The New Purchase," that "Ile was
master of many styles, and had stepped to the
highest round of the ladder at once:" The work
is no defence of slavery; but it would be a balance
wheel, not to stop, but to concentrate, equalise,
and direct other motions. It treats the altruism
of the North to the Let adjoins. Tho writer wit
nessed much that he describes, and real persons
are introduced under new names, so that the
work, while it will possess the interest of fiction,
is not only true to life, but in ninny of its scenes
mid characters is true in fact.
