BtfOF BOUND. The fallowing are the directions of Dr. DODD for this disease "In &li cises we must endeavor to give the frog a bearing on the ground, and in order to do this the shoe ought to be re moved. A dry, brittle and contracted hoof may be improved by repeated poulticing with soft soap and rye meal applied cold. So soon as the hoof softeDs. let it be dressed night and morning, with turpentine, linseed oil, and powdered charcoal equal parts.— Yet, after all a run at grass in a soft pas ture, the animal having nothing more than tips on his feet, is the host treatment. A very popular notion exists, that cow meas ure has a powerful effect on a contracted hoof, bat it is the candid opinion of the author, and no doubt the reader will coin cide that filth and dirt of every kind are unfavorable to healthy action. Such rem edy, aside from its objection on the score of desccncy, savors too much of bv-gone days, when live eels were sent on an errand down horse's throats to unravel their iutes tincs. If any benefit belongs to such an objectionable application, it is due to the property it posesses of retaining moisture; therefore cold poultices and water arc far superior. Clay and moist earth, placed in the stall for the horse to stand on, are far inferior to a stuffing of wet oakum, which can be removed at pleasure. In order to keep it in contact with the sole, we have only to insinuate two strips of w<od between the sole and shoe one running lengthwise and the other crosswise of the foot. It af fords considerable pressure to the foot, is cooling and cleanly, as far superior to the abeve articles.'— Farm Journal. Horse Shoes Without Nails. A Yankee by the name of Short has in vented a horse shoe which requires no nails. He makes the whole two pieces, employing in addition, two small screws to aid in screw ing the parts together. But are made of mailable iron—the lower portion, or'sole' being very similar to the hcrse shoe ordi narily employed, but with a groove around its exterior, and without nail holes. The upper portion or, 'vamp,' is thin, and has a flange projecting inward from its lower edge to match the groove in the sole. The parts are so arranged as to secure a tight and firm connection, and the whole is made addi tionally secure by the aid of the set screws before mentioned at the heel. A shoe of this kind once fitted the vamp may be made to wear out a great number of soles. The exterior may be highly snished and plated with silver, which gives a very flashy ap pearance to a team of lively horses, or the shoes may be enamelled jet black when in. tended for white or gra7 animals. One practical advantage to be derived from this style of shoes is the facility with which they can bt removed or exebaaged, so that a skillfull hostler may exchange the shoes, or rather the soles, on every occasion when thß presence of ice or the like renders it desirable, and it may even be expedieut in extreme cases of exhaustion, as with race horses, to remove the shoes altogether for a time, and allow a more refreshing rest- Farir Journal. Watermelon .Molasses. An article Las been going the rounds of papers about the practicability of making molasses from watermelons. We felt in credulous en the subject, but have recently been presented with a bottle of it by our friend PuiLtp A. MASON, of Woodbury. New Jersey, who is well known in this mar ket as a successful grower of the mountain sweet watermelon. It was really a nice article, clear sweet, aud of verv pleasant flavor. lie informed us the only process was to boil down the pulp to about one-half. The boiling was continued for several hours.

A FRVEHAI, SERMON. — Parson S * rather eccentric character was called upon to ' pieaeh the funeral"' of a hard case named Raun, which he did, in the followiug unique style: "My beloved brethren and sisters, if eur beloved Brother Rann would a wanted some body to come here and toil lies about him, ' lit a better Man than he was, be wouldu't Lave chose ie to preach his funeral. "No, my bretheren, ho wanted to be held up as a 'burning and a shining light,' to warn you from the error of your ways. He kept horses, and he run'd" 'ein; he kept chickens, and he fou't 'em. Our departed biother had many warnin's, brethren. The first waruin' was when he broke his leg, but he still went on in the error of his ways.— The second warnin' was when his son Pete huug himself in jail; and the last and greatest waruin' of ail was when he died himself" Ihe preacher ealarged on these topics, until be sunk Rann so lotf that his hearers began to doubt whether he would ever suc oeod in getting him up .again, and, as is usual in ''funerals," landing hiui safe in Abraham s bosom. This was the object of the second part ot the sermon, which started off thus: "My breathren, there'll be great meracles, great meracles in heaven. And the first ineraelc will be that uiariy you expect to find there you won't see there. The people that go round with long faces, makin' loug prayers, won t be there, and the seckood meraele will b j , that many you don't expect to find there—as perhaps some won't expect to find our dear departed brother Rann— you'li see there; and the l.vst aqd greatest meracle will be, to find yourselves there." , { rBRMS.

BEDFORD INQUIRER AND CHRONICLE. THE Mew fork Tribune, THE TKIBIXE if now in the middle of its fifteenth yew; Vol- XV. of its weekly issue com menced on the Ist of September last- The Ame rican public need not now be made acquaint ed with its character or claims to considera tion. With but a subordinate regard for pru dence, policy or popularity, it has aimed to Stand for Righteousness, lor Truth, for Hu manity, against fortified Iniquity, i raud and Oppression. There is not a slave-trader on this Continent, though he may never read anything but his bills of sale and notes-payable, who does not know and hate THE TRIBUNE; there is not an extensive fabricator of drugged and poi sonous Liquors who does not consider it a very dangerous and immoral paper, and wouder why its publication is tolerated in a commercial, cot ton-buying City like New-York. The Newark Mercury once forcibly remarked that it had ne ver known fc hard, griping, screwing, avari cious employer who was not hostile to THE TRIBI RE, nor oneeminently generous and kind ly who did not like it. Promp and plain-spo ken in its denunciations of iniquity and abu ses of power, while claiming no exception from human fulibilitj, it may have done temporary injustice to individuals, but it has never been unfaithful to Principle, nor deaf to the cries of the wronged and suffering. In its columns the advocates of novel and unpopular theories i contemplating the melioration of human woes, especially those of the voiceless and down trodden. have eu-r found audience and hospi tality; while it has ardently resisted, and will persistently combat every attempt to proscribe and degrade any class because of diversities | of Nativity. Creed or Color. In defiance of calumnies the most atrocious, and of hostilities the most deadly and untiring, THE TRIHUSE has grown steadily in public ap preciation from the day of its origin. It means of serving the public have been augs merited in proportion. Instead of a single editor with one or two assistants, its organiza tion now comprises a numerous body of wri ters, each fitted by special accomplishment and exjierience for the particular line of dis cussion to which his pen is devoted; the daily amount of reading matter given more than quadruples that of itsearHett issues; a staff of valued correspondents encircles the globe, transmitting early and intelligent narrations of whatever in most worthy of attention; while Politics, Legislation, Literature, Art, History —in short whatever alfects the social well-be ing of mankind, Polemic Theology alone ex cepted—finds here the freest and most search ing discussion. Attached by profound conviction to the be neficent policy of Industrial development and Internal Intercommunication, whoseuiost con spicuous champion through the last Half Cen tury was HENRY CLAY- imbued, moreover, with that spirit of forbearance toward onr weaker neighbors, and toward the much wrong ed Aborigines of this Continent, and of Peace with All which will hallow the Dame of Whig, T''E TRIBUNE, while surrendering no jot ot' its independence, cooperated earnestly and ar dently with the Whig party MI long as its vi tality was preserved. When, in 1850-2, an attempt was made to interpolate slave-hunting into its creed, we sternly resisted that impo sition; when, at the close of the last Presiden tial canvass, it was seen thata large portion of the Whigs preferred to defeat their own party rather than allow its Anti-Slavery wing to share its triumph, even under a conservative Chief on a Pro Slavery platform, we knew and proclaimed that the Whig party was no more. Subsequent events, including the rise and cul mination of the Know-Nothing conspiracy, and the speedy absorption therein of the whole force of Pro-Slavery Whigism, only confirm ed our nndouhting anticipetions. "With no sickly lamentations, therefore, for the inevita bly bygone, but with hope, and joy, and sym pathy, and words of cheer, have we hailed the beginning and watched the progress of that mighty REPUBLICAN movement which, impell ed by the perfidious violation of the Missouri Compact, and stimulated by the astounding outrages whereof the rights of the Free Set tlers of Kansas have been the victims—by the repeated and utter vitiation of their elections by an armed mob collected by conspiracy and hurled suddedlv upon them from the border counties <<f the neighboring Slave State, is destined to sweep away the landmarks of old party feuds, and unite the true hearts and strong arms of the free-sonled in one mighty effort to confine the scourge and scandal of our country within trie limits of the States which unwisely uphold it. To the success of this effort the energies of THE TRIBUNE will be sternly devoted; while the TKMPERANCK RE- Koua, including the entire suppression of the Traffic in Intoxicating Beverages, will find in it, as hitherto, an earnest and unflinching champion. Commencing as a daily folio sheet of mode rate size, and with scarcely a shadow of pat ronage. THE TRIBUNE is now issued in quarto form Daily (three distinct editious,) Semi- I HWr/j and Weekly, on a sheet 44 by 34 inch es, eight ample pages of six columns each.— Its circulation has steadily grown from nothing to the following aggregates: Daily issues (evening and morning) 29,500 copies Serai-Weekly, 14,175 " Weekly, 137,750 " California edition, 6,000 " Total. 187,125 Wa believe no other newspaper in the world has a subscription list over half so large as this; and no periodical of any sort can rival it. And while its extreme cheapness, rendering an incroit.se of paying readers only as indirect pe cuniary advantage to us. has doubtless largely swelled its subscription list, it would be absur dity not to perceive in this unprecedented pat ronage some evidence of public approval and : esteem. | TERMS. .

Why Females Suffer in Health. No woman of delicacy is willing to disclose the peculiar ailments incident to her sex, even to a most Intimate family physician. This modesty and delicacy is implanted by nature, and neither should nor need be subject ed to the rude shocks inevitable in making known to the other sex those ailments belonging exclusively to the female. Except in extreme cases, her sensitivencs will sacrifice her health rather than her delicacy The consequences are serious, lamentablh and life-long. Thus what at first could have been easily rem edied, or perhaps better still, not incurred, be comes a complication of diseases, not only ru ining the health of the mother, and embitterin her days by sickness and suffering, hut entailing broken constitutions upon her children, ang emliarrassing, if not distressing, the business and pecuniary prospects of the husband. Let eve ry sensible woman TAKE \VAU\l\ft IA TIME (as thousands have done) by the bitter experi ence and sufferings of others, of the dreadful conseq jences she entails upon herself and those endeared to her, by her ignorance of the sim plest and plainest rules of health us connected with the marriage state, the violation of which entails disease, suffering and misery. How many are suffering from obstructions or irregularities peculiar to the female system, which undermino the health, the effects of w-hion they are ignoianf, and for which their del icacy forbids seeking medical advice! How many anffer from prolapsus uteri (tailing of the womb,) or from fluor alius (weakness, debility. Sec.)! How many are in constant agony fori many months preceding confinement! How ma-' ny have difficult, if not dangerous deliveries, and slow and uncertain recoveries! To the question, how are these to he preven ted ? what shall be done ? the answer is simple. Let every woman ascertain for herself, without violence to her delicacy, f he nature and charac ter of the ailment (to which she as a female is subject) the causes from which it may arise, and the proper remidies for its cure and future pre vention. This she can do by possessing a little volume (already possessed by thousands) whtch tells her wiiat is the matter, and tells her what to do for it, in simple but chaste words, and such as she can understand. This little volume is entitled THE MJJRRIED WOMJIJY'S PRIVATE MEDICAL COMPANION, BY DR. A. M. MAURICE ALL PROFESSOR OP DISEASES OF WCMEK. One Hundredth Edition (500,000) 18mo., pp. 26fl [ON FINE PAPER,.EXTRA BINDING, sl.] A standard work of established reputation found classed in the Catalogues of the great Trade Sales in New York, Philadelphia, and other cities, and sold by the principal l.ooksel ,ers in the United States. It was first published u 1847. since which time iFLVE HUNDRED THOUSAND COPIES have been sold, of which there were upwards of ONE HUNDHED THOUSAND SENT BY MAIL, attesting the high estimation in which it held as a reliable popular medical BOOK FOR EVERY FEMALE the author having devoted his exclusive atten tion to the treatment of complaints peculiar to N'emales, in respeet to which he is yearly con sulted by thousands, both in person and bv letter. Here every woman can discover, by compa ring her own symptoms with those described, the nature, chaiacter, causes of, and the proper remedies for, her complaints. The wife about becoming a mother has often need of instruction and advice of the utmost importance to her future health, will find such instruction and advicre, and also explain many symptoms which otherwise would occasion anxi ety or alarm, asall the peculiarities incident to her situation are described. It is of course impracticable to convey fully the various subjects treated of, as they are of a nature strictly intended for the married or those contemplating marriage. The revelations con tained in its pages have proved a blessing to thousands, as the inunmerable letters received by the author (which he is permitted by the wri ters to publish) will attest. Extract of a I.otier from a gentleman in Dayton, Ohio : DATTOK, May 1, 1847. Dr. .1. M. Mauriceau; "My wife has been perceptibly sinking for some three years or more, in consequence of her great anguish and suffering some months be fore and during confinement; every successive one more and more debilitated and prostrated her, putting her life in imminent danger, and which was on the last occasion despaired of. I supposed that this state of things was inevitable, and assigned myself to meet the worst. At this time (now about two months) I heard your book highly spoken of, as containing some matter reaching my case. On its receipt and perusal. I cannot express to you the relief it afforded my distressed mind, and the joy its pages imparted to my wife, on learning the great discovery of M. M. Desomeaux provided a remedy. It open ed sv prospectto me which I little conceived was possible. No pecuniary consideration can ever repay the obligations I am under to you, for having been the means of imparting to us the matters contained in "The Married Woman's Private Medical Companion." But for this, ere another year wonld have passed over my head, in all hnman probability my wife would have loien in hei grave and my children left mother less." " f In consequence of the universal popularity o the work, as evidenced by its extraordinary sale, various impositions have been attempted as well on booksellers as on the public, by im iraiions of title page, spurious editions, and sur deptitions infringements of copyright, and otb ervices and deceptions, it has been found neces sary therefore TO CAUTIONI THE PUBLIC to buy no boox unless the words "Dr. A.

In the publication of the following certificats' of cures, the names hav# been suppressed, as the testimonials were voluntarily offered, and at would be improper to publish them without the consent of the parties, and who would be un willing to publish to the world that they or their children or friends, ever had fits, when the circumstance is always regarded as one of the family secrets.

I have bean troubled many years with FITS, and have tried the skill of many physicians, hut nothing which I have taken appears to have met the require ments of my case, so well as vour Epileptic Pills. ANOTHER CASE OF FITS. Clarksribg, Va. I November 15th, 1852. J To Seth S. Hance. Baltimore. Md. Dear Sir—Having been afflicted for some years past with Faliißg Fits, I saw your adver tisement, and determined to give your pills a trial, and I am happy to say that since 1 com menced the use of them, I have not had an at tack. I believe them to be a first rate article, for, as 1 have writteu to yu in a former letter i I was attacked every two weeks, but since 1 have been using them I have not had an attack. Yours, respectfully, LETTER FROM A DRUGGIST. New York, Oct. 10, 1852. Dear Sir— Please send me two boxes more o' your Vegetable Epileptic Pills.

Dear Sir—lt is now ten months since my wife hud any of those nervous attacks. She thinks she is cured. She has not had any symptoms ot the disease for the last nine months. She took your Vegetable Extract Pills for about four months, and discontinued them jour months since. Mrs. S. was treated by the best old school physicians in the State for ten years,then by the best Homoepathic for eighteen months, without acure. It is to your Vegetable Ex tract Pills, and with strict regard to diet, that we ascribe her enre of the most dreadful dis ease that pvei afflicted the human family. I wish every persou afflicten with Epilepsy had this medicine, aud would give it a thorough trial.— it may not cure in all cases, but iu this it has performed wonders. A VERY REMARKABLE CURE. Milledgeville, Ga. December 17; 1852. J Dear Sir—l wish to inform yon that ona o my family has been afflicted with FITS tor a number of years, and seeing an advertisement in a news paper, concerning your Vegetable Ex tract Epileptic Pills, I came to the conclusion, after trying almost-very physician in my reach! and all having failed in relieving my "child of the disease, to send for six boxes of your pills, which proved an effectual cure for my daughter, who is now about 18 years of age. 1 think j there is no other medicine in use equal to them, j and I will be forever grateful to you for the use i of them for my daughter whom it has cured. Yours, respectfully. Nervous and Constitutional Disea ses. These pills possess a specific actior on the nerveus system, and although they are prepa red especially for the purpose of curing Fits they will be found of especial benefit to all per son afflicted with weak nerves, or whose ner vous system has been prostrated or shattered from any cause whatever; in fact it is almost impossible to convey an adequate idea of the peedy and almost miraculous results which these pills effect in the diseased, broken down tr -.arostrated nervous systems. Persons who were all lassitude, weaknesss and debility, be fore their use, at once become robust and full ol energy. Xo matter whether the constitution has been broken down by excess, weak by na ture, or debilitated by sickness, the:r effect on the unstrung and shattered uervous organiza tion is equally certain and apparent. In cases of neuralgia, headache, vertigo, pain in the nerves of the face, and the various train of ner vous affections, palpitation of the heart, period ical headaches, cold and shivered state of the frame, frequent fits of abstraction, total inabili ty, dislike to society, melancholy, religious mo nomania, heats and flushes of the face of! the slightest occasion, a desire that existence should terminate; they will produce a cure in an aston ishingly short period of time, and it will also remove depression, excitement, a tendency to blush, restlessness, sleeplessness,incapacity for study or business, loss of memory, confusion, giddiness, blood to the head, mental debility, hysteria, indecision, wretchedness, thoughts of self destruction, fear of insanity, &c.,"&c. They will increase and restore the appetite strengthen the emaciated, renew the health of those wbo have destroyed it by exc. sses, and induce continual cheerfulness and equanimity of spirits, and prolong life. Persons of pale complexion and cosnumptive habits are restored by a bos or two, to bloom and vigor, changing tlie skin from a pale,(ye!low sickly color, to a beautiful florid coraph xion. r C?"As these Pills arec. mposed of s jme o the most expensive mate dais in the listeria Medica, it will be impossible to leave them around the country on agency* as common Pat ent Medicines usually are. But in ordeT to let the afflicted in the most remote parts of the country have a chance to obtain them, they will be sent by mail free of postage, to any part of the United States, or any conntry with which the United States has postal arrangements, or the receipt of a remittance.

PIUS NONSENSE. The following is the rediculous conclusion of a recent "circular letter" put forth by 'this Reverence, the Bishop cf Newark " "We appoint the month of December the time during which thoTriduuin granted granted by our Holy Father Pope pius IX by his rescription of the 21st of January 1855, sLall be celebrated in this diocese.— We allow the several pastors to choose, at their discretion, any three successive days doting that month, for their respective congregations—arranging the time with the neighboring clergy, in order they mav assist one another in hearing confession* and giving the necessary instructions To all who assist devotedly at the relij;. iou exercises on any of these tbr-e day , the Holy Father grants a partial indulgence of seven years; and a {denary indulgence t those who attend during the entire Triduum confess their sins with humility and contr.- tion, receive the Holy Communion, and, the last of the three days, offer pr.vrers to God, according to the intention of Lis hoh ncss. These indigencies may be applied, byway of suffrage, to the 3ouls in Purga tory. His Holiness has also granted, that od each of three days, one mass of the Im maculate Conception of the Virgin Marr may be celebrated, with or w ithout singing. We also give permission for the benediction of the Messed sacrament on those days Given at our residence at Newirlc. this Bth day of November, A. D. 1855, being the octave of the feast of all Saints. f JAMES, Bisliop of Newark. By order of the lit. Rev. Bishop, Victor Beaudevin. Secretary." The credit of these" exorcises" to be ap plied to helping along the souls in Purga -1 tory! In other words, says the New York Mirror, obey the priesthood—do just'is the Holy Humbug commands, and HE will as sume the prerogative of God, and grant to* sinner all sorts of "indulgences'' here and absolute absolution hereafter. If this fool's logic is not blasphemous nonsense, we don't know how else to characterize it. It is pa— sing strange that any HONEST mind can he deluded by such religious Peler-Funk istn. A POINTED INQIIRT. —'Couldn't pu get young pork, ma'am, to bake with your beans'' said old Roger, somewhat cynically, as he sat at the table, on Sunday. 'They told me it was young,' said the landlady. 'Well, it may be so, but gray hair is nt a juvenile feature, by any means, in our lat itude, ma'am,' continued he, fishing up a hair about a foot and a half long, with his fork. 'He may have been young, hut he must have lived a very wicked life to be gr; so soon.' As he spoke, he looked along the table and a slight emotion was visible among tbr boarders, and the mau who sat oposite, wiio his mouth full of the edibles, with which i.<• had been endeavoring to smother a laugh, grew dark with the effort, and then collap sed, scattering dismay and crumbs ainid the nicely platted folds of old Rogers' shut frills .
