Highest Mountain in the World.
The principaltopic of conversation at
'alcutta is the discrvery• of the highest
mountain in the world. At the meeting
of the Arctic Society of Bengal, on the
6th of August, Major Thuillies announ
ced that Col. Waugh, Surveyor General
of India, had completed his computations
of the positions and elevation of the peaks
of the Himalaya. The result was to de
pose the mountain Kanchinjinga from its
throne as the highest point on the earth's
surface. That distinction belongs for the
present to a peak 100 miles from Kanchin
jinga, and between that mountain and
Kanmandoo. This peak is ascertained to
be 29,002 feet above the sea level; Kan
chinjinga is 28,156 feet ; and Dewalagirl,
the mountain which 'school geographies'
persist in calling 'the highest mountain in
the world.' is only 26,826 feet. The
mountain has no name intelligible to civ
ilized men, and Col. Waugh has there
fore ventured to denominate it 'Mount Ev
erest,' after a former Surveyor General.

complete eontrol of his erial car, and he ho.
vers over the city for hours, much to the de
light and wonder of common people on terra

or four passengers, at twenty-five dollars a ride,
which snakes his business quite lucrative.—
Those who go up generally appear to be de.
lighted with the sights they have witnessed,
and are no doubt equally delighted to arrive
safely again on something more solid than air.
We suppose that railroads will be behind the
times after a while, and that people will do

ASTOUNDING DEVELOPMENT I
ANOTHER OF CAMPBELL'S POSTMAS
TERS DETECTED.
THE WAY WE WERE DEFE -WED.
Perfidy of no Accountwith a Jesuit!
READ!! READ!!
It E AD!
The most startling 'developments are being
brought to light in different sections of our
country, showing the manner in which the no.
called Democracy have elected their President
and the means resorted to. The mails have
been stopped, votes illegally polled, &c., &c.
In this county, the lowest and most startling
tricks base been perpetrated, and the system
of mail depredation carried to au alarming ex.
tent. The postmaster in Huntingdon Borough
—William Lewis—has been playing a high.
handed game in one matter, and we Lope, for
the sake of justice, that sympathy will not so
far work upon the feelings of the gentlemen
who have his case in band, as to induce them
to let him go nnrebuked and unpunished. We
give below a copy of one of his letters, now in
possession of one of our most excellent citi
roan it verGaiint. Read it :
Post Office, Huntingdon ' Pa.
Noy. Zia, 1856.
•
Y. M. Coffee Run.
You will "ire Mr. - ALL
PRINTED MAIL NATTER lying at your
office for the ekes beyond it.
WM. LEWIS, P. M.
Paradise Furnace, Maddensville Three Springs.
The story invented, that it was to hasten on
the American newspaper's circulars, urging all
Americans to vote the straight-out Fillmore
tickets is simply untrue ; Mr. Oillam informs
US that according to these instructions to deli.
ver "all printed mail matter," he gave up all
in the office, and all "printed mail matter" was
taken, with the exception of a bundle of the
American newspaper's circulars! Now, if the
circulars were the articles William Lewis the
Postmasters, wished to have sent on with speed
why, should they be the only articles left?
The note as published in last week's How
tingdon Globe, is not correct, as will be seen
!by comparing i t with the original. The above
is a correct copy as taken from the order now
in good hands.
The laws of the United States speak in em•
phatic terms. Hear
"If any person employed in any department
of the post office shall improperly keep, detain
or delay any newspaper, or permit any other
person to do it, or permit any other to open
any mail, or packet of newspapers, NOT DI
RECTED TO THE OFFICE WHERE HE
IS EMPLOYED, for every such offence he
shall forfeit fifty dollars. And if any person
shall take any wail of newspapers from or out
of any post office, or from any person having
oestody thereof, he shall be imprisoned at hard
labor for a term of three months."
"If any person shall lake with or without the
consent of the person baying custody thereof
any packet from any poet office, * such of•
fenear shall be imprisoned for not less than 2
nor exceeding 10 years."
" Every person who shall advise or assist in
perpetrating any acts by this Act forbidden.
shall he subject to the same penalties as if he
were the actual transgressor.
"The Huntingdon Journal was issued as u•
sual on Wednesday."—Hinit. American of the
1211 s inst.
"The Journal and Globe editions were mail.
ed in the Huntingdon office, on Wednesday af•
ternoon."—Hunt. Globe 12th inst.
Now this proves the old adage, one lie pro.
duces another. To prove these gentlemen tnis.
taken, wo have only to produce the following t
"I hereby certify that a part of the edition
of the Hicntingdon Journal was worked off on
Monday, November 3d, and mailed the same
day. The remaining part of the edition was
printed on Tuesday scorning, -and put in the
office of Huntin don, in time for both mails.
Huntingdon, N0v.48, 1836. W. MILLER.
Now this certificate proves conclusively that
Mr. Lewis has criminally kept back the Journ
als in his office, for one day—after the election
or, that he is telling a deliberate untruth ; we
cannot say which, but it must be one or the
other. Here is the law, relative to this case,
which we give without charge.
"If any person employed in any of the de
partments of the Post Office Establishment
shall unlawfully detain, delay, or open, any let
ter,
packet, &c., with which lie shall be entrus
ted, or shall come to his possession, and which
are ir.tended to be conveyed by post, * * * *
every such offender, being convicted, shall be
fined not exceeding three hundred dollars, or
imprisoned, net exceeding six months, or both
according to the offence."
"If any postmaster shall unlawfully detain
in his office any newspaper, &c., with intent to
prevent the arrival and delivery of the same to
the person or persona to whom such newspaper
&e., may be directed, or if any postmaster
give preference touny newspaper over another
forwarding the one and retaining the other,on
conviction thereof he shall be nisi not over ive
hundred dollars, and imprisoned for a term not
exceeding six months, and shall forever there
alter be incapable of holding said office in the
United States."

Greatest Medical Discovery of
the Age. _ .
Dr. Kennedy, of Roxbury, has discovered in
ono at our common pasture weeds a remedy that
cures
EMIETT MED OP
from the worst scrofula down to a common Om.
He has tried it in over 1100 cases, and never
tailed except in two cases. (both thunder humor.)
He has sow in - his possession over two hundred
certificates of its virtue, all within twenty miles
of Boston. _ .
Iwo bottles nro warranted to cure a nursing
sore mouth.
..
One to three bottles will cure the worst kind
of Pimp' es on the Mee.
Two or three bottles will cure the system of
Biles.
Two bottles are warranted to cure the wont
case of Erysipelas.
One to two bottles are warranted to cure all
humor in the Eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure running of
the ears and blothes among the hair.
Four to six bottles are warranted to cure
corrupt and running ulcers.
One bottle will cure scaly corruption of the
akin.
Two to three bottles are warranted to, cure
the worst case of ringworm.
Two to three bottles nee warranted to cure
the most desperate case of rheumatism.
Three to eour bottles arc warranted to cure
the salt rheum.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case
of scrofula.
A benefit it always experienced from the first
bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when' s
the above quantity is taken.
Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles
of this in the vicinity of Boston. I know the
effect of it in every case. So sure as water will
extinguish fire, so sure will this cure humor.—
I never sold a bottle of it but that sold another;
after a trial it always speaks for itself. There
are two things about this herb that appear to
me surprising; first it grows in our pastures in
some places quite plentiful and yet its value
lies never been known until I discovered it in
1846—second that it should cure• all kinds of
humor. _ _ .
In order to give some idea of the sudden rise
and great popularity of the discovery. I will
state that in April, 1854, I peddled it and sold
about six bottles per day—in April, 1854, I sold
over one thousand per day of it.. . . .
....go;;;;;Fil;;;IToleife 'Druggists who have
been in business twenty and thirty years, say
that nothing in the annals of patent medicines
was over like it. There is a universal praise

BALTiiiitE LOCK HOSPITAL.
DOCTOR JOHNSTON,
rpni founder of this Celebrated Institution,
J. offers the most certain, speedy, and only
effectual remedy in the world for Bleats, Stric
tures, Seminal Weakness, Pain in the Loins,
Constitutional Debility, Impotency, Weakness
of the Back and Limbs, Affections of the Kid—
ney■, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Ner
vous Irritability, Disease of the head, Throat,
Nose or Skin ; and all those serious and melan
choly disorders arising front the destructive
habits of Youth, which destroys both body and
mind. These secret and solitary practices are
more fatal to their victims than the song of the
Syrens to the mariner Ulysses, blighting their
most brilliant hopes of anticipations, rendering
marriage, &c.,:iinpossible.
Young Men,
especially, who have become the victims of Sol
itary Vice, that dreadful and destructive habit,
which annually sweeps to an untimely grave
thousands of young men of the most exalted
talents, and brilliant intellect, who might oth
erwise have entranced listening senates with
the thunders of eloquence, or waked to ecetacy
the living lyre, may call with all confidence.
Marriage.
Married persons, or young men contempla
ting marriage, being aware of physical weak
ness, organic debility, deformities, &r., should
immediately consult Dr. Johnston.
He who places himself under the care of Dr.
Johnston may religiously confide in his honor as
a gentleman, and confidently rely upon hie skill
as u physician.
Organic Weakness.
immediately cured, and full vigor restored,
This disease is the penalty must frequently
paid by those who have become the victim of
improper indulgencies. Yung persons are too
apt to commit excesses from not being aware of
the dreadful consequence that may ensue.—
Now, who that understands the subject will pre
tend to deny that the power of Procreation is
lost sooner by those,falling into improper habit
than by the prudent. Besides being deprived
of the pleasure of healthy offspring, the most se
rious and destructive symptoms to mind and bo
dy arise. The system becomes deranged , the
physical and mental powers weakened, nervous
debility, dyspepsia, palpitation of the heart, in
digestion, a wasting of the frame, cough symp
toms of Consumption.

Dr. Johnston,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeon.,
London, graduate from one of the most eminent
Colleges of the United States, and the greater
part of whose life has been spent in the first Hos
pitals of London, Paris Philadelphia, and else
where, has effected some of the most astonish
ing cures that wore ever known, many troubled
with ringing in the head and ears when asleep,
great nervousness, being alarmed at sudden
sounds, and bashfulness, with frequent blushing
attended sometimes with derangement of mind,
were cured immediately.
A Certain 'Disease
When the misguided and imprudent votary
of pleasure finds be has imbibed the seeds of this
painful disease. it to too often happens dust an
ill-tinted sense of shame, or dread of discovery,
doters him from applying to those who from ed
ucation and respectability, can alone befriend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms
of this horrid disease make their appearance,
such as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose,
nocturnal pains in the head and limbs, dimness
of sight, deafness, nodes on the shin bones, and
arms, blotches on the head, face and extremities,
progressing with frightful rapidity, till at last
the palate of the mouth or the bones of the ease
fall in, and the victim of this awful disease be
comes a horrid object of commiseration, till
death puts a period to his dreadful sufferings, by
sending him to "that bourne from whence no
traveller returns," To such, therefore, Dr.
Johnston pledges himself to preserve the most
inviolable secrecy, and from his extensive prac
tice in the first Hospitals of Europe and Ameri
ca, he can confidently recommend a safe and
speedy cure to the unfortunate victim of this hot
rid disease. _ .
It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall vic
tims to this horrid disease owing to the unskil
fulness of Ignorant pretenders who by the use of
Oust deadly poison Mercury, ruin the consi
lotions and either send the unfortunate sufferer
to an untimely grave, or make the residue of his
life miserable.
Take Particular Notice.
Dr. .L. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by improper indulgenci es.
These are some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by curly habits of youth, viz
Weakness of the Back and Limbs Pains in the
head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Limbs,
pow
er, Palpitation of the Heart Dyspepsia, Nervous
Irritability, Derangements of the Digestive
Functions, General Debility Symptoms of Con
sumption, &C.
MENTALLY—The fearful effects on the mind
are much to be dreadedl Loss of memory, Con
fusion of ideas, Depression of Spirit, Evil For
bodings, Aversion to Society, Self Distrust,
Love of Solitude, Timidity, &c., are some of the
evils produced.
Thousands of persons of all ages, can now
iudgo what is the cause of their declining health.
Losing their vigor, becoming weak, pale and
emaciatod, have singular appearance about the
eyes, tough and symtoms of consumption.

dy for Organic Weakness.
By this great anclimportant remedy, weakness
of the organs is speedily cured and full vigor re
stored. Thousands of the most debilitated and
nervous, who had lost all hope, have been im
mediately relieved. All Impediments to Mar
riage, Physical or Mental Disqualification, Ner
vous Irritability, Tremblings and V. eakness,
or exhaustion of the most fearful kiwi, speedily
cured by Doctor Johnston.
Young Men,
who have injured themselves by a certain prac
tice indulged in when alone—a habit ftequently
learned from evil companions, or at school—the
effects of which are nightly felt, even when a
sleep, and if not cured renders marriage impos
sible, and destroys both mind and body, should
apply imm ediately.
What a pity that a young man, the hope °ibis
country, and the darling of his parents should be
snatched from all prospects and enjoyments of
life by the consequence ofdeviating from the path
of nature and indulging in a certain secret habit
Such persons before contemplating
Marriage,
should reflect that a sound mind and Jody nro
the most necessary requisites to promote connu
bial happiness. Indeed without these, the jour
ney through life becomes a weary pilgrimage,
the prospect hourly darkens to the view; the
mind becomes shadowed with despair, and tilled
with the melancholy reflection that the happiness
of another becomes blighted with our own.

To Strangers.
The many thousands cured at this Institution
within the last 15 years, and the numerous im
portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr.
Johnston, witnessed by the Reporters of the pa
pers, and other persons, notices of which
have appealed again and again before the pub
lic, is a sufficient guarantee to the afflicted.
N. B. There are so many ignorant and
worthless quacks advertising themselves as
Physicians, ruining the health of the already af
flicted. Dr. Johns',, deems it necessary to any to
those unacquainted with his reputation that his
Diploonts always hang in his office.
