LOCAL INTELLIGPNCE.
TUE bixestaloat. tient —The light in the
heavens on Sunday night is noted in all diree•
thins. As we looked toward the sky, between
the hours of 9 and 10 and 11, the light exceed.
ed in splendor and variety of coloring any thing
of the kind our eyes ever witnessed. The old
poets represented Aurora as rising in a chariot
from the eeban dropping the gentle dew from
her rosy fingers.; but that was the morning
twilight. The Visible streams of Auroral light
keen en Stindag were not the common Aurora
borealis; they were more iu the range of east
and west than in the north. The light appeared
in streuna, sometimes of a pure milky white.
ness and sometimes of a light crimson. They
ascended towards the zenith from faint lines
and inereeeed to broad streaks of light, culmi•
noting in a beautiful crown or panoply from
which a multitude of brilliant and over•chang.
ing rays shot down towards the horizon. The
white and rose-red waves of light as they swept
to and from the corona were beautiful be•
yond description, and a friend nearby on, while
looking to the zenith with the whole heavens
and earth lighted up at a greater brilliancy
than is afforded by the full moon, said that it
was like resting beneath. the wings of the Al
mighty. The crown above, indeed, seemed
like a throne of silver, purple and crimson,
hung and spread out with curtains or wings of
dazzling bounty. Never did the heavens seem
to be more the work of the Creator, nor the sub.
limest work of art sink in comparison so fur
beneath the wonderous skill and power of the
great Architect of the heavens. The tremu
lous motion of moving light, which the inhahi•
tants of the Shetland Islands call "the merry
dancers," was less apparent than usual, but in
place of it came those full, bright, changing,
but more steady streams of light, which gave
an intense brilliancy to the whole heavens--
seeing till this in the country, with no bricks,
mortar, or high walls to obstruct one's observe.
lion, the view was muck more impressive than
elsewhere.
ADVIMISING.—Ono would think, that the
benefits of this system were self-evident, and
that in this stage of the world's progress, any
recommendation to adopt it would be trners.
vary; and yet, judging, from the practice of
some of our merchants and tradesmen, the ad•
vantages accruing therefrom would seem to be
problematical. Thos who have tried it on a
liberal scale, are well aware of the great in
crease in business whirls results, and could
not be persuaded to forego its assistance.,-
lilvery man who opens a store, or shop, or file•
tory. uses some sort or means to let the com•
munity know what he has for sale, and to ex
tend his sales as much as possible. Some
bare a Baring sign, some huge windows, ethers
a splendid looking store, but all try, in one
way or another; to lot folks understand that
theirs is the place to do trading at. In these
days, it has been found that the cheapest and
best method to effect the desired object is to
advertise its the newspaper. Not merely to
give notice that Mr. So-and•so keeps a store
in some street or another, or that Blank & Co.
are manufacturing goods ; but to state, deft.
nitely and particularly, the kind of business,
to designate the variety of articles of which
the stock consists, and to mention the price
and quality, or in general terms, the fact, that
this is the place for bargains. The more lib
erally a mats advertises, the more customers he
is sure to ham. Here and there you may find
some old fellow, who has been for years a fix.
tare, and whom everybody once knew, who
manages to get along with little or no adver.
lining, but depend upon it, this state of things
can'tlast long, and in a very few years the shop
or store of such an antiquarian will be deserted
for that of him who knows how to make use of
the most approved and popular method of
keeping himself and businesi before the peo•
pie.

last Tuesday I removed from the face of a lady
a well developed cancer: boing anxious to pre.

sonic whillty, and put the removed mass into
it. I had occasion to look at it in the course
of twenty-four hours after, when to my surprise

READING t• - tot THE MII,LION.-T. B. Peter
son & Brothers have this day issued the sec
ond volume of their new and cheap edition of
Charles Dickens' Works for the Million, to be
completed in 28 volumes, ono to be ias•ted on
each and every Saturday, for twenty-five cents
per volume. The cheap literature of former
years did not tend much to elevate their rea
ders, but the reading that Peterson now gives,
at prices which scarcely cover the costs of
printing, is of the very best character, and
must exercise a wholesome influence over the
public taste, by making all readers acquainted
with the works of the best fiction writer in
the English language. A reader in the coon
try for one dollar can have the first four of
these volumes transmitted to him, or the whole
twenty eight volumes will be sent for five dol
lars. The second volume, issued to-day, con•
tains the conclusion of Oliver Twist and the
commencement of Pickwick Papers.

Alamo,

Price $l.
We copy the following from the Philadelphia
Norih American :
Col. Crockett was a character. His autobi•
ography has been long nut of print ; his reps
tution for eccentricity has been presumed upon
in the publication of all sorts of outrageous and
obscene nonsense, in coarse almanacs, and
other vehicles for low humor. This volume is
a re.publieatior of the genuine work, with
necessary additions ; and will be new to the
present generation of readers. It is as marked
and characteristic as the subject was; his pot•
trait faithfully drawn, and none the less so that
it is without effort, and perfectly naive and sin•
core. We well remember the amiable original
in his northern tour, and recall many of the in
cidents to which his book alludes, We never
have looked upon his like since; nod rejoice
in this republication as an act of justice; to
retrieve an hottest man from vulgar misrepre
sentation.
A copy of the Book, and a handsome pres•
ent will be sent by moil, postpaid, upon re
ceipt of $1 for the book, and 21 cents !be pos•
tags.

Burdett. One volume, 12m0., cloth. Price $l.
This book deserves to be singled out and no•
ted as above the many novels which are pub.
lished. Both in structure and style it is enti•
tied to the name of art. It is a Tale of Do
mestic Life, rehearsing the interwoven histories
of a round of every day characters, and its
aim is to show the Polies of the too many, so
called, passions and pleasures of fashionable
life, touching in no part upon ground that prop
erly belongs to the vast domain of romance.
rhe Bachelor Millionaire Uncle George,
is a character reminding us of the Brothers
Cheeryble, end although he teaches the "sweet
uses of Adversity," with severe discipline, it
brings out the true beauty of character, and
shows how few there are who can go thro' the
trials of everyday life, and in the end prove
their constancy.

THE CELEBRATED COPPER TOE!
Mitchell's Patent Metallic Tip, designed es•
peeinlltt for Boys', Youths' and Children's
BOOTS AND svoEs.
Art imenovEnEsx has been applied to Boots
and Shoes, by which a saving of expense to
the customer, of t wolhirds is realized, by actual
ex)), riment.
'ho Tip consists of a piece of copper or oth•
er indestructible material, neatly fastened to
the toe of the boot or shoe, forming a complete
protection. This invention is now promoted
to the public, with the fullest knowledge of its
practical utility, having been tested over two
years, and is destined entirely to supersede the
old style, fur
CIII Lll REN'S,I3O Ye' AND YOUTHS' BOOTS AND SIIONS
The importance of this invention will ho
readily appreciated, as it is well known that
children invariably wear out their bouts and
shoes
FIRST AT THE TOE,
and, with this protection, they will upon an av
erage wear at least two to three times as long
as the uld style, while the expense is but a trifle
more.
This invention is also especially applicable to
Miners' Boots, and all occupations subjecting
the toe or tho boot or shoe to be out or worn.
Merchants, and the public generally, will see
the importance of obtaining these goods imme
diately, as they are destined for general use, to
supersede all other kinds.
The Goods may be obtained of nearly all
the wholesale dealers lu tt e principal cities, or
of the Subscribers,

We refer to
Dr- Chas. IVLane's Celebrated

We do not recommend them as
universal Cure-alls, but simply for
what their name purports, viz.:

For expelling Worms from the
human system. It has also been
administered with the most satis
factory results to various Animals
subject to Worms.
THE LIVER PILLS,
For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS.
all BILIOUS DERANGEMENTS, SICK
HEAD-ACHE, &c. In cases of
FEVER AND AGUE,
preparatory to or after taking Qui
nine, they almost invariably make
a speedy and permanent cure.
As specifics for the above men
tioned diseases, they are Unrivaled,
and never known to fail when ad
ministered in accordance with the
directions.
Their unprecedented popularity
has induced the proprietors,
FLEMING BROTHERS,
PITTSBURGH, PA.
to dispose of their Drug business,
in which they• have been success
fully engaged, for the last Twenty
Years, and they will now give their
undivided time and attention to
their manufacture. And being de
termined that Dr. M'Lane's Cele
brated Vermifuge and Liver Pills
shall continue to occupy the high
position they now hold among the
great remedies of the day, they
will continue to spare neither time
nor expense in procuring the Best
and Purest material, and com
pound them in the most thorough
manner. Address all orders to
FLEMING BROS. Pittsburgh, Pa.
