that Dr. H. Anders' lodine Water cured him of

cerning this remoikuble remedy,

identity s having been nettled a little, by a thistle
applied to the wrong end, has throwfc off the lion-a kin
mask, through which bis ears shone so plainly, and
now kicks ond brays out, without any effort at dis

Recovering— Young Armstrong, son of Lewis
Armstrong of Clinton Tp.,>ho was shot by DeMerse
—an account of which was given in tho Democrat

of the wound received. It is to be hoped that this
most unfortunate affair may have this fortunate ter
mination. Fortunate alike to the boy and bis fami

trial.
Going up.--The dwelling house on the. corner
of Tioga and Warren St., owned by R. R. Little
Esq , we notice is being raised np from its heretofore
humble position and with the proposed additions and

tasteful and desirable residences in town.—We hope
the spirit of improvement which new seems.on the in
crease, may become infectious. — Let sgo to work,
everybody, and have a revival
The Canal at this place, is now being filled I T
water from the Horse-race dam ; to repair which,
has up to this time, taken the labor of a large force
of men. The first consignment of coaf, to Major
Win. M. Piatt, has arrived from up the river. It
being a part of a boat-load which was stopped last
Fall while on its way to the NY. Markets. The
arrival of these black diamonds, is rapidly restoring
the sweet tempers of our good woman, which, judg
froin personal experiences, has been considerably
soured, sine- they hate had to depend upon the fuel
prepared by the men folks for warming the soup.
Mill Gearing.— The estimation in which the
work, turfted out at the foundry of our enterprising
townsmen, Gearhart A Co., is held by all who use
it, appears in the fallowing unsolicited statement,
made by the proprietors of the "Eureka Mills the
iron works and gearings for which, were made and
finished at that establishment.

inform tho public that & careful and official search,

in Pianofortes was ever granted by the United States
to any person by the nine of Decker, except to the

the fact, that some persons are trying to sell "Deck

TO CURE CONSUMPTION the system must be

plish this, the liver and stomach must first be cleans

i which, by these medicines will be di jested properly
and good healthy blood made ; thus building up tbe
; constitution. SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS
cleanse the stomache of all bilious or mucous accu
mulations; and, by using the Sea Weed Tonic in
| connection, the appetite is restored.
SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP is nutrieioug
; as woll as medicinal, and, by using the three reine
i dies, all impurities are expelled irom the system.and
good, wholesome blood made, which will repel al
disease. If patients will tak- these medicines ac
cording to directions. Consumption very frequently
in its last stage yields readily to their action. Take
the pills frequently, to cleanse the liver and stom

kept healthy, apd an appetite created to allow tbe
Pulmonic Syrup to act on the respiratory organs

RAILROAD CO.
11/EJE FIIIS'I MORTGAGE
EONDS
As an Investment.
The rapid progress of the Union Pacific Railroad
now building west from Omaha, Nebraska, and for
or. ig, with its western o wnecti >ns, in unbroken line
across the continent, attracts attention to the value
of the First Mortgage Bouds which the Comjaoy
now offer to the putlie. The first question askel by
prudent investors i.-, "Are thvge bouds secure?"-
Next, "are they a profitable investment ?" to reply
in brief:
Ist. The early completion of the whole great line
to the Pacific is as certain as any future business
event'ean be. The Government grant of over twen -
ty ui'.lliou acres of land and fitly million dollars in
its own bonds practically guarantees it. One fourth
of the work is already June, and the track continues
to be laid at tbe rate of two miles a day.
2d. The Uuion Pacific Railroad bonds are issued
upon whut promises to be one of the most profitablj
lines of railroad in the country. For many years it
must be tbe only line connecting the Atlantic and
pacific ; and being without competition, it can main
tain remunerative rates.
3d 376 miles of this road are finished, end fully
equipped with de- ots, locomotives, cars, Ac., and
two trail a are daily running each way. The materi
; ais for the ,etiuriuing 131 miles to the eastern base
of the Rocky Mountains are on band, and it is under
contract to he done iu :>epteinber.
4th Tbe net earnings of'he sections already fin
ished are several times greater than the gold inter
est upuqyhe Fiist Mortguge B< nls upon such sec
tions, and if not another mile of tbe road were built
tbe part already completed would not only pay in
terest aud expenses, but be profitable to the Com
pany.
sth. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds can be is
ued only as the road progresses, and therefore can
never he in the market unloss they represent a bona
Jide propertv.
6th. Their amount is is strie'ly limited by law to
a sum equal to what is granted by tbe U. S. Gov
ernment, and for whi hit takes a second lien as its
security. This amount ujon the firs- 517 tciies west
from Amaha is only 816 000 per mile
7th The fact that fbo U. S. Government consid
; ers u second lien upon the road a good investment,
and that some of the shrewdest rai'road 'builders of
tho country have alreai' paid in five million dol
lars upon the stock (which is to them a third lien),
may well Inspire confidence in a first lien.
Btb. Although it is not claimed that there caD be
any better securities that Governments, there are
parties who consider ;i first mortgage upou such a
property as this the very best security in the world,
ami who sell their Governments to re-invest in these
bonus—ihus securing a greater interest.
9tb. As the Union Pacific Railroad bands are offer
ed for the ) resent at 90 cents on the dollar and ac
crued interest, thry are the cheapest security in the
market, beiug over 15 per cent, less than U. S.
Stocks
hub, At the current rate of of premium on gold,
they pav
Over Nine per Cent. Interest.
The daily subscriptions are already large, and
the will continue to be received iti New York by tbe
