Hippocrates— an ancient Greek, is often called
the ' Father of Medicine." But it is a matter of
history (see Bible) that the human family was heir
to many ills long before his time ; and that they
resorted to various means of cure, some cf which are
still employed. These venerable remedies, as well
as all the lecent ones, may be found at Lyman A

The Teacher's Encyclopedia.—Teachers,as
a class, cannot provide themselves with encyclope
dias, or such other books of reference as would aid
them in their labors, but in the latest edition of Web
ster's magnificent Quarto Dictionary they have a
worthy substitute. Whenever I meet teachers in
their associations or institutes, or in private, I ear
nestly present to them the great advantage they
would derive from having this work near them. It
will tend to make them accurato, while the defini
tions and illustrations will suggest many new ideas
for elaboration among their pupils.— W. R. White
State Superintendent of Free Schools for West
Virginia. Wheeliog, March 21, 1860.
The Idea that a person, who publishes accuntry
newspaper, can live on his reputation as "a good fel
low"—a "black-guard''—or any other repotation,
better than on victuals, is all moonshine We've
tried all these ways and declare ourselves decidedly
ia favor of the eatables, as a regular diet. Our
friend B D Jaques, of Lemon, —who never bad
any such silly notion, about printers, at his last
visit to town, brought us a basket of good ripe yeung
potatoes, which he refused to take pay for.—This
This last mentioned fact will, we hope,save him sever
al visits from Lincoln's tax assessor. It is hardlyjnec
essnry fer u to say, that Mr. Jaques takes the
Democrat and pays for it ; and does not raise small
potatoes, nor cultivate narrow ideas.
Plculc,—All who are fortunate enough to pos
sess an "unabridged," may soon ascertain the de
rivation and precise signification of the above term.
But everybody recognizes a distinction between
kn itvledge and experience. Ilence we infer that
none can fully appreciate the meaning of Picnic,un
til they've "been there." The point we are com
ing to, is that on Saturday last, quite a number of
the young people cf Tunkhannock, together with
several esteemed visitors from a distance, went out
on a little excursion, under the aforementioned title.
It is not our purpose to give a detailed account of
the affair, though it is proper to add that the party
wended its way (not without some apprehensions
from tbo tonacriig ohjuii it,) through tile Settle Seek
of t<wn, up the hills, until—after some perspiration
and not a few "long-breaths" —all set foot on
"Prospect Rock." From this point, the village slows
to pretty good advantage—"through a smoked glass"
for insiance—but its probable ''distance lends en
ehantinent to the view."
Thence we betook ourselves to the "cold spring."

The Osterhout Mill at LaGrange has been
entirely torn away this summer, to make room for
a new and more modern structure. The original
mill which was built by David Osterhout, fifty four
years ago, had been at various times repaired and
improved, so that almost without interuption for
npwards of a half a century it had been in opera
tion—doing good work. The new mill which is be
ing built by George. Jeremiah and Edgar Osterhout
and Palmer Jenkins, is designed to be built in the
most pertect and substantial manner, in every re
spect. Por this purpose, Mr. Gibbs, one of the best j
tail]-wrights in the country, has been engaged to do
the work The frame was put up on Wednesday
last, by a regular old fashioned raising ; at which, j
about a hundred men were present. Among them
were Daniel and Forbes Lee who assisted at the
rais.ng of the first mill 54 years ago ! Time, it is
tree, has left some furrows on their cheeks, but they
still feel able to hold a brace or handle a pike. The
frame is three stories high ; and entirely of oak and
yellow pine timber, Mr. Carpenter who had charge of
e framing, deserved and received the commenda
tion of of all present, for the perfect manner in j
ch the work was done.
Quite a large number of Ladies were present as

RAIL ROAD CO.
THE IE FIE ST MOETGAGE
EOWDS
As an Investment.
The rapid progress of the Union Pacific Railroad
now building west from Omaha, Nebraska, and for
ming, with its western onncctions, an unbroken line
across the continent, attracts attention to the value
of tho First Mortgage Bonds which the Company
now offer to the pullic. The first question asked by
prudent investors is, "Are these bonds secure ?"
Next, "are they a profitable investment 7" to reply
in brief;
Ist. The early completion of the whole great lin
to the Pacific is HS certain as any future business
eventjean be. The Government grant of over tweo -
ty million acres of land and fifty million dollars in
its own bonds practically guarantees it. One fourth
of the work is already done, and the track continues
to be laid at the rate of two miles a day.
2d. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds are issued
upon what promises to be one of the most profitable
lines of railroad in tho country. For many years it
must be the 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, and fully
equipped with depots, locomotives, cars, Ac., and
two trains are daily running each way. The mate ri
als for the ,emaining 131 miles to the eastern base
of the Rocky Mountains are on band, and it is under
contract to be done in.feeptember.
4th The net earnings of the sections already fin
ished are several times greater than the gold inter
est upon the First Moggage Bonds upon such sec
tions, and if not another mile of tbe road were built
the part already completed would not only pay in
terest and expenses, but be profitable to the Com
pany.
sth. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds can be is
ued only as the rood progresses, and therefore can
never be in the market unless they represent a bona
fide property.
6th. Their amouat is is strictly limited by law to
a sum equal to what is grunted by tbe U. S. Gov
ernment, and for whi-h it takes a second lien as its
security. This amount upon the first 517 miles west
from Amaha is only 816,000 per mile.
7th The fact that /he U. S. Government consid
ers a second lien upon the road a good investment,
and that some of the shrewdest railroad builders of
the country have already paid in five million dol
lars upon the stock (which is to them a third lien),
may well Inspire confidence in a first lien.
Bth. Although it is not claimed that there can be
any better securities that Governments, there are
parties who consider a first mortgage upon such a
property as this the very best security in the world,
and who sell their Governments to re-invest in these !
bonds—thus securing a greater interest,
9tb. As the Union Pacific Railroad bends are offer
ed for the present at 90 cents on the dollar and ac
crued interek, they are the cheapest security in the
market, being over 15 per cent, less than U. S.
Stocks.
10th, At the current rate of of premium on gold,
they pay
Over Wine per Cent. Interest.
