We learn from the November number of this New Magazine of Fashion and Literature,that • It has already attained a large circulation. The aim ef its publishers is to rival the three dollar magazines in the quality of their en gravings and contents. Thus it has given during the present year, in every number, a finely engraved and colored Double Fashion Plate, while its ether numerous engravings are of the best quality. The !ong and bril liant array of the literary contributors to the •Lady's Friend, tiearlv all of whom are ladies, : is highly creditable to the Magazine, and also to the country, as showing how large and cul-1 tivated a class of lady, writers it possesses, j 'Many may wonder how any magazine can be got up in so handsome and lavish a manner as this is, at the low price of $2.50, saying nothing of the reduced rates to clubs. "The publishers say that it is only done by having a very large circulation, as money would cer tainly be lost on a small edition. Price $2.50; 2 copies $4.00; 9 copies, $16,00; 21 copies $35.00. Single numbers sent,post age paid, for 25 cents. A Sewing Machine Pre mium is also given on certain terms. Address Deacon & Peterson, 319 Walnut street, Phila delphia.

MCALARNEY : The Ladies of our little •city and vicinity have been at work a little for the benefit of sick and wounded soldiers, 'for a few weeks past, and as they do not seem disposed to herald their own doings, I tho't 'I would tell the people what has been done.! and hew. This contribution may look so small as to! provoke a smile from some, but it is from these small sources that the great stream is | supplied that is constantly ministering to the -wants of those who have suffered in the serv ing of their country. In the first place they contributed material and made a quilt (nice enough, by the way for any one to sleep under), next day they made a quilting, invit ing all hands to come in the evening for a visit and supper at a charge of 40 cents each. I They provided a rousing supper and a tip top entertainment at the house of E. Horton, re alizing §l4 in money notwithstanding' the evening was dark, rainy and muddy. Con tributions were also made for a soldiers' box.! The box was shipped to the U. S. Christian Commission in Philadelphia, Nov Ist. It weighed 65 pounds*, consisting of 1 quilt, 25 ounces lint, some bandages and old cloths, dried berries and currants, pickles, honey,! corn starch, reading matter, all valued at over sls. W Ith the sl4 in money thev in tend to buy yarn and cloth to knit and make up at their e veiling circles. They also have a box open at the store of i L. bird for contributions at any time, front i people in the vicinity, and as often as practi- I table, one will be packed aadshipped. Secy < f! Sa4au ilomoN, Treasurer, Mrs. E. Z. t Wu ' N. D, l Oil to Victory ! HI ASS MEETING. The people of Potter witnessed on Thurs day of this week an exhibition such as they have not seen since the cxvitiDg campaign of '56. Although for a week previous the rain had fallen without scarcely any cessation, making the roads nearly knee-deep with mud, and the most sanguine of our friends in the village had begun to feel somewhat blue at the prospect, yet notwithstanding all this we had the largest and most enthusiastic meeting ever held in the county. There were delega tions from almost every township, and by one o'clock the streets were crowded with people. Forming on the green south of the Allegany, under the able Marshalship of Maj. Jno. M. Kilbourne, aided by Capt. A. F. Jones, I.'ts. Hoyt and Horton, and Mr. N. Vannenwigen, they rode and drove through the principal streets, making a procession nearly a mile in length. In the procession we noticed among others, the following banners : The first was a very fine oil painting, on one side of which was the head of the "Fa ther of bis Country" with the inscription : "The Father of our Republic,.GEOßGE WASH INGTON," on the reverse, the head of "Father Abraham" with the inscription "The preserv er of our Republic, ABRAHAM LINCOLN." This was one of the finest Banners we have ever seen at a public meeting, and the people are under many obligations to Mr. CYRENUS JONES for the able manner in which he executed his task, and to the ladies of the village for the •beautiful trimmings. This banner was ad mired by every one. The next banner carried had the following motto as the watch-words of the campaign : "Liberty and Union; No Compromise with Traitors." The next was the picture of a gunboat, and over it the words "MCClellan's head-quarters during the battle of Malvern Hill." The peo ple pretty generally appreciated the point of this "joke." Then came one with the words "The God of Abraham delivered the Israelites from Egyptian bondage lie will also by the hand of Abraham deliver the bondsmen of Ameri ca." The next represented Mr. Lincoln holding out on his hand a popinjay of about the size ot Tom Thumb supposed to represent little McClcllan, and saying, "This reminds me of a little joke;" while the pigmy holding out a purse in cue hand, says, "I il stick to my $6,u00 a year." This is supposed to refer to the fact that although he has not done any thing in two years to earn a salary he con tinues to draw pay as Major-General! This created a great deal of merriment. Another, the richest and most significant, was one representing a snake under which was the word "Chicago," every letter of which was an ingeniously shaped snake. McClellan has a field glass to his eye looking for some object in tbe far distance. Out of the month of the snake come the words . "I say Mac, do you get a view of the White House?" to which Mac replies : "Nary a view, my dear Pendleton and I greatly fear our bearings wiil land us far below." There were other banners which we have no room to mention in this connection. The display of flags was the finest we have ever seen in a procession of its size. The meeting was organized by calling Hon. BARAK NILES to the Chair. A prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Stevens. It is impossible at this time to do justice to the incomparable speeches of Laudon, Loyd, and Armstrong, but a few words are due to the speakers and the cause. After a stirring Loyal Song, happily exe cuted, at 10 minutes to 3 o'clock, Mr. Landon was introduced to as fine an audience as ever' assembled in this county, and was received with hearty demonstrations of satisfaction, lie spoke for an hour and a half as on? hav ing commission to teach, not as a politician. He spoke earnestly for the country, not for party. He showed the utter folly of resorting to falsehood and meanness or to any wrong act to build np a party; said such efforts might bring present success but were certain to end in the overthrow of any party that resorted to them. His description of a great man was of itself worth traveling throughJeYcn the present mud twenty miles to hear. His definition, ■ briefly told in plain prose, is, that a great I man is one who faithfully and cheerfully dis ! charges every duty that the occasion aud his relationships impose on him, liis explana tion of the origin and cause of the war, was ; the most effective and wholly unanswerable of any we have listened. But the whole | speech from beginning to end was a grand | effort, well calculated to elevate and improve ' those who heard it, with not a single passage , in it addressed to the passions or prejudices :of his hearers. We feel very certain that i every candid McClellan man who heard the ; speech of M. B. Champlain, of Cuba, and then treated himself to listen to the speeches at the , Court House on Thursday last, must have; felt ashamed of Mr. Champlain's manner ofj trying to aid the election of his Chief. At the closo of Mr. Landon's speecn we had ; another loyal song from "Olmsted's Brigade" which did everybody good who heard it. Clinton Lloyd, Esq., was then introduced, who rising io speak, was greeted with a gen uine Potter county welcome. He had been pleasantly referred to as a thunder cloud', whose storm was to break upon the audience but his speech from opening to close sparkled with wit and humor, poetry and prose. Being an old-line Democrat he could tell the foul, dire wrong, the so-called Democracy were attempting to force upon the country. He was listened to with the greatest attention, and we heard many gratifying remarks from his audience touching his arguments, clo ■ quence, and the point with which he capped many of his periods. Union Democrats were strengthened by his remarks, and general j good could not help but flow from them, i After music by the Band, the mcetiug ad journed to meet-in the evening. Hon. Win. H. Armstrong addressed the meeting in the evening. He reviewed the pending issues in a most masterly manner carrying conviction to the mind of every lover of his country and her institutions, as to his duty in the present crisis, lie held spell J bound, the large audience between two and I and three hours, his earnest and patriotic utterances often being greeted with long and loud applause. In this effort Mr. Armstrong done noble service to the Union cause, and won an enviable reputation in the minds of all who heard liira, His speech was a rare treat to our people. Among the many grand successes of the Day was the Torchlight Procession and dis play of Fireworks. It was something new to our people and attracted a good deal of at tention. There were one hundred and fifty torchlights, besides the Banners and Trans parencies. Our columns are so crowded that it will be impossible to give a minute descrip tion of it all. We will cniy slop to give the mottoes of the Red White and Ihue Transpa rencies. "No Party but our Country. Death to Chppcrlieadistn." "How are you Gunboat Galena? ; I don't remember."' "Pendleton, tho man who boasts that lie never voted a njau or a dollar to crush Rebellion." "Our i'Maryland: Free Maryland." "Victory will i brine; Peace for our Whole Country.' "Chi cago—A Ray of Light to none but Rebels. We go for Baltimore." "IANCOLN the cham pion of the Union." "Jonxsux, where many faltered stood iirm by the Union. "It is, * dangerous to swap horses while crossing a - stream." j We congratulate our people upon the suc -1 cess of their efforts and we will no doubt, in our next, have the pleasare of announcing to them the re-election of "Abe and Andy.

Some eight years ago one of my daughters seemed to be in a decline, and little hopes of her recovery were enter tained.

I have, in my individual case, made frequent ase of your valuable medicine, and have also been benefitted by it. JACOB SECURER. From Jessie SmiSh, Esq., President of the Morris County Bank, Morris town, New Jersey. " Having used DA.
