'SAMUEL SLOKORT," EAI.IRATAN
SHARP PRACTICE :—Swindling in every
forte appears to be the order of the day.
The latest specimen is the following,
which was brought to our notice a few
days since, by a neighbor, who had just
received the joyful intelligence of his
"good luck." About four weeks since
quite a number of our citizens received
a pamphlet and several tickets, by mail,
which purported to be issued by the
Merchants' and Manufacturers' Stock
Company of New York, doing business
at 556 Broadway. The tickets entitled
the holders to large prizes in case they
held lucky numbers, always •providing
the holder•sent the Company $5 for each
of said package of tickets. We hope no
one in Marietta was verdant enough to
send the swindlers the $5. Now follows
the sharp part of the transaction. A
day or two since, our friend, as above,
received a written letter—and we pre
sume others received the same kind of
letter—of which the following is a true
copy : •

The "at your request, &c.," being
false, our friend , never having written a

informing us that we, too, have drawn ,a

cer The "Old soldier" furnishes us
a list of the oldest. inhabitants of this
borough. Commencing with Jacob
Rock, who is 92; Samuel Bailie, 88;
Samuel Hopkins 88; John M. White
hill, 78; Jacob Funk, 80; John IT.
Goodman, 78; John Hildebrandt, 77;

Reuben Welchans, 70; William Weid•

Kramer, 75 ; Samuel D. Miller, '75.
Captain Miller is the oldest settler in
the borough, having arrived here in
1809, whilst Marietta was yet in two
villages, called gew Haven and Water
ford. Of the above list there is bet one
( Mr. Rock) who is confined to the
house, and only two ( Mr. R. and Mr.
Wilson) who could not, if 'twere neces
sary, make a "full hand at his trade."
All but Mr. R. are very active men and
can be seen daily on our sidewalks, as
active as men of fifty.
The temperance society of this
borough intend holding a " Harvest
Home "-in Mr. Duffy's park, on Wed
nesday, August Ist. to which all temper
ance organizations and the public gen
erally are cordially invit ed. Able speak

Cni r 7cl, PITCHER.—The following
simple mode of keeping ice water for a
long time in a common pitcher is worth
knowing. We have tried it :—Place
between two sheets of paper ( newspa
per will answer, thick brown is better)
a layer of cotton batting, about half an
inch in thickness ; fasten the ends of
the paper and batting together, forming
a circle ; then sew or paste a crown over
one end, making a box the shape of a
stovepipe hat, minus the rim. Place
this over an ordinary pitcher filled with
ice-water—making it deep enough to
rest on the table so as to exclude the
air—and the reader will bo astonished
at the length of time his ice will keep,
and the water remain cold after the ice
has melted.
ar The Postmaster General is mak
ing a stir about the use of the franking
privilege. It is understood that some
members of Congress allow other parties
to fac similie stamps of their own names
on envelopes for which a consideration
is paid, and thus the postal revenue is
defrauded. The great difficulty is to
know how to put a check upon this de
spicable practice.

A TIMELY WARNING TO THE SlCK—ft is
especially important . at this time, when the
markets of the United States are flooded with
the direst poisons, under the name of imported
liquors, and when domestic compounds pur
porting to be medicinal, but not a whit less
pernicious, are heralded to the world as ',sove
reign remedies," that the public should fully
understand the facts. Be it known, then, that
while all the diffusive stimulants called liquors
are impure, and all the Tonics containing al
cohol are manufactured with a fiery article
containing amyl or fusel oil, a mortal poison,
OSTETTER'S CELEBRATED STOMACH
BITTERS contain none of these things, but
are a combination of pure essence of Rye with
the pure juices of the most valuable stomachic
anti-bilious and aperient herbs and plants,
and thiit as a safe and rapid.remedy for Dys
pepsia and all its kindred complaints, this
preparation stands before the world without a
rival or corn petitor. Its sales to-day are equal
to the combined sales of all the other tonics
advertised in the United States, and the certi
ficates which authenticate its usefulness are
signed by individuals of the highest standing
in every professional calling and walk of life.

REASONS WHY
Otrt Autumn 'Olatt4
MADE AT WALTHAM, MASS.,
IS TFIF. BEST.
It is made on the best principle. Its frame
is composed of SOLID PLATES. No jar can
interfere with the harmony of its working
and no sudden shock can damage its machine
ry. Every piece Is made and finished by ma
chinery (itself famous for its novelty, as well
as for its effectiveness) and is therefore pro
perly made. The watch is what all mechan
ism should be—ACCURATE, SfIVIELE,
STRONG AND ECONOMICAL. Except
some high grades, too costly for general use,
foreign watches are chiefly made by women
and boys. Such watches are composed of
several hundred pieces, screwed and riveted
together, and require constant repairs to keep
them in any kind of order. All persons who
have carried "nacres," " lepines," and "En
glish Patent levers," are perfectly well aware
of the truth of this statement.
At the beginning of tour enterprise, more
than ten years ago, it was our first object to
make a.',ltioroughly good low priced watch for
the million, to take the place of these 'foreign
impositions—the refuse of foreign factories—
which were enti yunsaleable at home and
perfectly worthless everywhere.
How well we have accomplished this may
be understood from the fact, that after so many
years of public trial, we now make MORE
THAN HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES
SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES, and that
no others have ever given such universal sat
isfaction. While :this ' department of ou r
business is continued with increased facilities
for perfect work, we are at present engaged in
the 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
this branch of our business, and have filled it
with the best workmen in our service. New
machines and appliances have been construc
ted, which 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 not 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
parably superior. All our watches, of what
ever grade, are fully warranted and his war
rantee is good at all times against us or our
agents in all parts of the world,
CAUTION.—The public are cautioned to
buy only of respectable dealers. All persons
selling counterfeits will be prosecuted.

L ADIES TAKE PARTICULAR
NOTICE
THE REAL VALPAU FEMALE PILLS!
[WARRANTED FRENCH. ]
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.
VALPAU, 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 purposes.
In overcoming female, obstructions they seem
to be truly omnipitent, 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.
Pyle, Mountjoy ; H. D. Parry and R. Wil
liams, Columbia, and druggists generally.
Ladies can procure a box, sealed from the
eyes of the curious, by enclosing $1 and six

PROSPECTUS OF

N view of the coming elections new and
I
extensive arrangements have been made to
give even greater variety and interest to
The'Viashington Weekly Chronicle,
The necessity of maintaining the fruits of
our great victory, and of strengthening those
eternal principles upon which alone republi
can liberty car. safely rest, will give extraor
dinary vitality to approaching political con
tests. Stationed here at the National Capital.
the CHRONICLE possesses peculiar *dean
tages to aid the common cause. Having been
conducted almost within the sound of the
rebel cannon during all the war, and therefore
fully understanding the intrigues and projects
of the traitors, it will not fear to speak out
boldl, in response to and in reflection of the
sentiments, of the free. millions of America,
and will defend them and their interests
against all opposition, come from what quar
ter it may, Since the meeting of the present
Congress of the United States, and the enun
ciation of that thorough policy which has com
manded the admiration and gratitude of the
people, the CHRONICLE has maintained its
poeitisn "solitary and alone." Traduced and
misrepresented as these majorities have been,
the Chronicle as their sincere and fearless de
fender, has been assailed with equal virulence
and injustice. But it has been honored with
the approval of the loyal people in all parts of
the country. For the first time in the history
of the Government, a prosperous weekly news
paper, opposed to human slavery, fully com
mitted to the policy 'and doctrines of the radi
cal men of the Republic, has been firmly es
tablished in the District of Columbia. We are
on the threshold of events not less important
than those .which astounded the civilized
world and shook the Republic to its founda
tion. These will demand extraordinary ener
gy and fidelity on the part of the public lead
ers, whether in Congress or the press.
The WEEKLY Cnnorircux is beautifully
printed in quarto form. During the session of
the present Congress, which promises to be a
protracted one, the subjects debated will ex
cite universal interest, and as they will be
frankly and thoroughly examined and dis
cussed in the Chronicle, as in both branches of
Congress, this journal cannot fail to be a most
useful and popular visitor to all loyal circles.
1 therefore cheerfully invoke the aid of the
friends of the cause in the different States and
territories.
