MISCELLANEOUS ADVERTISEMENTS,
TO THOSE WHO WANT FARMS.
A FA M
WITHIN THE REACH OF . kVERT MAN.
THE RIDOWAY FARM COMPANY has made ar
rangements by which all who desire to settle or
purchase a home can do so.
The Farms consist of the best limestone soil
of the most superior quality for farming, in a ra
pidly improving place, into which an extensive
emigration is now pouring, The property is lo
cated in Elk County, Pennsylvania, in the midst
of a thriving population of some 10,000 popula
tion. The climate is perfectly healthy, and the
plague of the west lever is unknown. It also
has an abundance of the hest quality of Coal
and Iron. The price to buy it out is from $3 to
$2O per %ere, payable by instalments, to he loca
ted at the time of purchasing, or a share of 25
acres entitlii.g to locate the same f" r $3OO, pay
able $6 per month or 12} acres payable $4 per
month. Discount for every sum of $lllO and
ender, paid in advance, discount of 5 per cant.
will be allowed, and for over $lOO a discount of
10 per cent.
In considering the advantages of emigrating
to this locality the following are presented :
FIRST —The roil is a rich limestone, enpahle
of raising the heaviest crops, owing to which the
settlem't has attained its present great prosper
ity.
- -
SECOND-..1t is the centre of the great North
West Coal Basin, and is destinc.i soon to be
come one of the mateat huhiness places in the
State. It will supply the great Lake market.
(according to population and travel in the Un
ion.) It has fire workable veins of the beat Bi
tuminous Coal, amounting in the aggregate to
over 22 lent, which makes 22,000 tons of coal
under em h acre. This will make the land of
inestimable val..
The eminent state geologist, Dr. Chas. T.
Jackson, of Boston,
has made a geological sur
vey of the land and analyzed the soil, the iron
ore and the limestone. This report together
with maps will be furnished to inquirers.
Fourrit—Three railroads are laid out thru'
th;s property. The Sunbury and Erie Railroad
gives us n market foe our coal to the token—it
runs from Erie to Philadelphia. A large part
of this road has been finished, and is now in
running order. A henry three is noo working
from Erie toward our lurid in the western direc
tion, the moans tar the completion of which has
been raised—it will soon be finished. The Al
legheny Valley Railroad connects us with New
York, Boston anti Pittsburg. The Venting°
Road connects us with the West.
There ore already good Turnpike Roads run
ning through this property, various other roads
have heen opened to accommodate the emi;, , ra-
Lion mid settlement which has already taken
place.
There is no opportunity equal to it now offer
ed to the man who wants to provide himself a
home in an easy way, and make a settlement
where he can live in prosperity and independence
in a climate panitEeTLY HEALTHY.
No ease of the fever ever having been known
to occur in this settlement. It is not like going
to the backwoods of the West, among perhaps
intolerant people, where there is no society, no
ahurches '
or schools, where the price of lend is
high, and where the migrant, after being used
to the healthiest climate in the world, has to en
dure sickness and pain, and perhaps ruins his
health and that of his family. But here is a
thriving settlement having three towns, contain
ing churches, schools, hotels, stores, saw-mills,
gnat-mills, and everything desired. There is a
lash market at hand. 'The lumber trade last
year amounted Is over two hundred millions
lent of lumber. In a short time, owing to the
Coal; it will bacome still more valuable as a
number of iron works anti manufactories will
soon be started ; they are at present starting
them extensively at Warren. Even for those
who do not wish to go there, the payments are
such that they eats easily bay fauns to save their
families from want in the suture, or to gain a
competence by the rise which will take place in
the value of their lands. By an outlay scarcely
missed, a substantial provision can be made.
Persons should make early application, apply
or write to E. Jeffries, Secretary, No. 135 Wel.

Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchi
tis, Asthma, larryngittis and all diseases of the
throat and lungs, by medical Inhalation, lately
used in the Bromton Hospital, London. The
great point in the treatment of all human multi
ales is to get at the disease in the direct man
ner, All medicines are estimated by their ac
tion upon the crgan requiring relief. This is
the important fact linen which Inhalation is ha
s ed. If the stomach is licensed we take
medicine directly into the stomach. lithe lungs
are diseased, breathe or inhale medicated va
pors directly into the lungs. Medicines are the
nt1(10109 10 1118tlasa um! .I.nnhl ho apnlipd in
the very seat of disease. Inhalation is the ap
plication of this principle to the treatment of
the lungs, for it gives no direct access to those
intricate air cells and tubes which lie out of
reach of every other means of administering
medicines. 'the reason that Consumption, and
other diseases of the lungs, have heretofore re
sisted all treatment has been because they had
never been. approached in a direct manner by
medicine. They were intended to act upon the
lungs and yet were applied to the stomach.—
Their action was intended to he local, and yet,
they were so administered that they • should not
act constistutionally, expending immediate and
principal action upon the unotlentling stomach,
whilst tha foul ulcers within the lungs wore un
molested. Inhalation brings the medicine in
direct eoptaet with the disease, without the
disadvantage of any violent action. Its appli
cation is simple, that it can be employed by the
youngest intent or feeblest invalid. It doss not
derange the stomach, or interfere in the least de
gree with the strength, comfort, or business of
the patient.
OTHER DUMAS. THEATED.—In relation
to the following diseases, either when compli
cated with lung affections existing alone, 1 also
invite consultation. I usually find them prompt
ly curable.
Prolapsus and all other forms of Female com
plaints, Irregularities and Weakness.
Palpitation tel all other forms of Heart
Disease, Liver Complaints, Dyspepsia, and all
other diseases of Stomach and bowels, &e.
