O A. most distressing and melan

that a party of young men, composed of

George Itudisill, jr., John Strickler,
David Coble and Cyrus H. Johnson pro
cured skiff and went to the York
co w side of the Susquehanna river to
spend the day. On returning about four
o'clock in the afternoon, and when being
in about the middle of the river, some
o f t he party commenced to " rock the

two o rtho party, who could not swim—
Cyrus ff. Johnson, a young man of 18

the lower end of town, being one of

to desist "rocking " as he could not
swim, and that if the skiff was overturn

ass paid to him— being the youngest of
the party—none supposing or intending
the skiff to be upset—but persisting in
thatthey regarded as sport, until the
boat was capsized—throwing the u hole
party into the river, which happened
near the " battery," where the river is
about twelve feet deep. The loud and
deep cries for help brought parties from
this side, to their aid, but not until
young Johnsen had sunk to rise no more.
The ekitf was turned bottom upward, to
which the young men held on until the
succoring party arrived. Efforts were
made until after dark to recover the
body—as many as fifteen skiffs, filled

When a boy my first essay was on
the subject of Intemperance. Almost
my first declamation was on the same
subject. In both these juvenile per
formances I aimed to vindicate my claim
to be called an Archer by directing my
arrows, cold as water and deadly as
steel, right into the heart of that giant
foe of the human race—the Rum-god,

MR, BAKER :—The distressing acci
dent which happened on the Susquehan
na river, on Sunday last, has taken from
our midst one who was beloved by all
who knew him ; when the word came to
this shore that Cyrus Johnson was
drowned we could scarcely realize that
it was so—yet such was the fact ; death
not only takes the aged—but also the
young. During all of our intercourse
with him we never knew him to use pro
fane language—yet full of sport and
jokes—yes, Cyrus is gone—snatched
away in the bloom of youth, from a world
of misery and trouble, to a better one,
we hope. Amongst his fellows he was
a great favorite for his goodness of heart,
amiable temper and companionable con
duct—in a word, a very promising young
man, and had not death so suddenly cut
short his career, would have made his
mark. A COMPANION.
ige Mr. H. Marlin Afflick, of Phila
delphia, arrived in Lancaster by the 1.42
train on Monday morning, and while at
the depot inquired of a tall, stout man,
if he could inform him where Hiram
K.endig could be found. The man told
him that he lived next door to Mr.
Keudig, and would show him the house.
They started off together, and went
some two squares north on Queen street,
and were joined by a third party, who
appeared to be acquainted with the
guide. Quite unawares, Mr, Afflick re
ceived a blow behind his ear from a
billet, and was also struck in the side.
He was then told that if he made any
noise they would blow his brains out
and a sponge passed over his mouth and
nostrils ; after which he was unconscious
until about three o'clock A. M. When
he came to his senses he found that he
had been stripped of all his clothing ex
cept his drawers, boots, and hat ; both
his shirts were even taken, and $1,200
that he had in a belt and $l4O he had
in a portwonnaie.

qintiilied to portray the the stupendous feat

works on less momentous themes have placed
him in the first position, as a graphic and pow

nish ample scope fur tile highest exhibition of
his -peculiar genius for military description.
Under his powerful pen the stirring scenes of
the War pass in review with the vividness and
distinctress of a present and living reality;
while his great talent for condensation ena
bles him to embody everything of importance
in a compass just suited to the public want.

It is made on the best principle. Its frame
is composed of SOLID PLATES. No jar can
interfere - xith the harmony of its working
and no sudden :Amok can damage its machine
ry. Every piece is made and finished by ma
chinery (itselffamous for its novelty, as well
as for its effectiveness) and is therefore pro
perly made. The watch is what all mechan
ism shout d be—ACCURATE. SIMPLE,
STRONG AND ECONOMICAL. Except
some high grades, too costly for general use,
foreign watches arc chiefly made bye women
and boys. Such watches are composed of
several hundred pieces, screwed and riveted
together, and require constant repairs to keep
them in our kind of order. All persons who
have carried "ancres," " lepines," and "En.
glith Patent levers," are prrfectty well aware
of the truth of thisstatement.
At the beginning of cur enterprise, more
than ten years ago, it was our first elject to
make a thoroughly good low priced watch for
the million, to take the place of these foreign
impositions—the refuse of foreign factories—
which were entirely unsaleable at Ironic and
perfectly worthless' everywhere.
flow well we have accomplished this may
be understood from the fact, that after so many
tears of public trial, we now make MORE
THAN HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES
SOLD IN THE UNITED STATE'S, and that
no others have ever given such universal sat
isfaction. While this department of our
business is continued with incieased facilities
for perfect work, we are at present engaged in
th•e manufacture of watches of the very HIGH
EST GRADE KNOWN TO CHRONOMET
RY, unequalled by anything hitherto made
by ourselves, and unsurpassed by anything
made in the world. For this purpose we have
the amplest facilities. We have erected an
addition to our main buildings expressly for
th,s branch of our business, and have filled it
with the best workmen in our service, New
machines and appliances have been construc
ted, winch perform their work with consum
mate delicacy and exactness. The choicest
and most approved materials only are used
and we challenge comparison between this
grade of our work and the finest imported
chronometers. We do nut pretend- to sell our
watches for less money than foreign watches,
but we do assert without fear of contradiction
that for the same money our product is incom
pe.ailily superior. All our watches, of what
ever grade, are fully warranted amid his war

These Pills, so celebrated many years ago
in Paris, for the relief of female irregularities,
and afterwards so notorious for their criminal
employment in the practice of abortion, are
now offered for sale for the first time in Amer
ica. They have been kept in comparative ob
scurity from the fact that the originator, Dr.
VACPAU, is a Physician in Paris, of great
wealth and strict conscientious principles, and
has withheld them from general use, lest they
should be employed for Unlawful put poses.
la overcoming female obstructions they seem
to be truly orimiratent, bursting open the flood
gates from whatever cause may have stopped
them ; but they are offered to the public only
for legitimate uses, and,all agents are forbid
den to sell them when it is understood that
the object is unlawful.
For sale by Dr. F. Hinkle, Marietta ' • P. A.
