TINE YEAR EIGHTEEN HUNDRED AND
l. FORTY EIGHT has been mors replete with
wonderful. unexpected, and astounding political and
religious revolutions, and valuable discoveries and
inventions than any year since the commencement
OF the world. The whole continent of Europe has
been one great volcano Revolutions; not only the
old but the new world has been the theatre of wa
and bloodshed ending only with the treaty Of Querr
etaro, giving peace to Mexico, and the rich Gold
plains OF California to the American people.
Still greater event-one that will work COM
plete revolution in the entire m 1dical world and be
OF greater benefit to mankind than any invention that
has been made since the days OF Fulton--was tho
discovery OF the wonderful and truly great medical
compound, Johu Bulls Fluid Extract OF Sarsapar-
lila.
This invaluable remedy has already carried hap
piness to the hearts OF thousands and is daily giving
more consolation to the afflicted than could be afor-
ded by all the wealth in the mines of California and
the world combined9
Its put up in full quart bottles, and contains the
strength of SIX TIMES as much pure Honduras
Sarsaparilla as any similar preparation made in
America. Price, dollar per bottle six bottles
tor five dollars.
1t has been a well established fact for years past
that SaTsaparlla. when pure and properly prepared
was the only true panacea for all diseases or
jgina,lng from an impure state OF the blood, the
youth, barrenneSs, &c. We boldly assert that John
Bulls Fluid Extract of SarsaparilIa is the only pro-
Paration before the public that is prepared on strict
ly scientific principles and oil uniform strength The
Sarsaparilla is purchased without regard price,
and every pound, before being used is subjected to
che strlctest chemical tests and it's genuineness
aertained before being used.

side he stood throughout the whole otthe

of Saturday, referring to this subject, but
expresses the universal sentiment III thus
producing very just reprobation OF the
course of the 'Union:"
"Among the young officers whom the
Mexican war brought into conspicuous

Probably it, two years ago. our country

The PRESENT AND LAST ADMINIsTRA
T1oN.-One cannot but be struck with
the contrast between the attitude oc-
cupied by Gen. Taylor's administration,
in regard to questions OF foreign policy.
and that of the late Government. The
general complaint with the enemies OF
the Administration is. that Gen. Taylor
will not disclose his policy and define his
position, both upon foreign and domestic
questions. "What do you mean to DO
with the French affair." "What about
the Mosquito King!' care you for or
against the Monroe deciaration!" These
are the incessant inquiries OF his political
adversares Their curiosity seems to be
as perplexing and ill-timed as that OF
Santa Anna, who dispatched message
to Gen. Taylor, in the midst of the battle
of Buena Vista, inquiring "1chdt he
aOanted?' The old hero sent him back
word that he wanted PEACE. We have
no doubt that he is striving for the same
object now. though, if it cannot he secur-
ed upon permanent basis except by
resort to the "last Arguments Old
Rough and Ready will not be the man
TO take lTl9lit dl tue
We admit Gen. Taylor does not come
out and say what is the American de-
mand, and that he must obtain that or
nothing. His course is just the reverse
of the last Administration. With them
it was the "whole of Oregon or none:
inscribed even upon the banners of the
preceding Presidential contest, and boldly
proclaimed in the inaugural address OF
! the President. The "lame and impotent
conclusion of all that bluster has made
mortified nation heartily sick of all
rash and vain-glorious declarations. The
country has assurance, from the character
! of Gen. Taylor aud the wisdom of his
! couusellors, thai he will "demaud nothing
! but what is right and submit to nothing
| which is wrong" If he is slow and de-
! liberate in coming to his conclusions, he
will be equally slow in relimqulshing them
when formed. If he deals in no bra vado
it is because he is one OF those men who
! prefer action rather than words, aud who
once assuming a position, assumes it III
good faith aud from thorough conviction,
building his policy upon all iWmovabie

of battle will beat III vain.

lowing circumstances: A difficulty

A BEAU's STRATAGEM.-A romantic
story is told in the English papers of
lovers stratagem. A gentleman lost his
heart to a deaf and dumb inslructress.-
The lover passed himself off as III the
same condition; entered the school where
the young lady presided, aud learned from
her at the same time the art OF commune
eating his ideas by the tokens she taught
and his feelings by the tokens i'll which
even Ovid, with all his genius and learn
ing. can be outdoue even by simple
milk-mad In six mouths the romantic
swain led the young lady TO the altar; but
W hen the paper was handed him to sign,
containing the question -"Do you take
this woman to he your true aud lawful
wife," Il do" exclaimed the bridegroom,
and the aStonlshed priest dropped has
book and stood aghast; but the bride
groom picked it up, and the couple were
made happy.

The Danville Democrat says: "Hon.
Robert J. Walker, late Secretary of the
Treasury, has been recently on visit to
the iron and coal regions of this State.
He examined the Montour Iron Works,
at this place, Oh Monday last; and OH the
same day paid flying visit 10 Northum-
berland, his native place. On Tuesday
he returned to Pottsville. on his way
home, in company with Thomas Cham
bers, Esq at whose instance he was in
duced to view the extensive irou opera
tons in this region. 1t is said that he
has altered his lree-trade notions as far as
regards ad valorem duties Oh iron and
coal, and that he will lend his influence
in favor of moderate specific duties on
these staples of Pennsylvania, if bill of
that kind should be brought before the
next Congress. Thus it is that specula-
tive theory will give way to practical ex-
perience"

hundred and thirty miles OF ice, the bergs
of which were lrighttul. much more 50

afrers had seen before, Sir James aud
his party penetrated as far as the wreck

WOMAN RESCUED BY MARY HowITT.--
Charlotte Harris, (says a London letter,)
who was condemned to be executed, has
been saved, chiefly through the great ef-
forts OF the accomplished Mary Hewitt,
who not only drew up touchno memo
rial to the Queen, but she solicited, in per-
son, day after day, and night after night,
the signatures of the influential ladies of
England. The day at first appointed for
the execution of Charlotte Harris was
postponed, as it was discovered that she
was enciente. Mary Hewitt has saved

A late English paper (;he European

A late English paper (;he European
Iimes) states that the present year open
ed with large demand for pig lead, for
shipment to the United States--a,ad this
demand has steadiIy increased daring
the gear. 'This," adds the Times, 'is
altogether novel feature, as the United
States, instead of importing, has for
many years exported this metal " 1t
seems by this para graph that the miners
of Missouri, as we'll as those of Pennsyl-
vania, feel the effects of our free-trade
tariff The lead mines of Missouri are
sufficiently productive to supply not only
the demands of the United States, but
even Of the whole world. Notwthstand-
ing this fact, however, large quantities
of this metal are imported, to come in
direct competition with our own products.
Although our mines are as easily worked,
and as productive as those OF Great
Britain, the latter can send lead 10 this
country, paying the expenses OF transpor-
tatios and a small duty, and compete
successfully with the products of Ameri-
can labor in American markets.
The secret of this Iiesfin the chea"'aeSS
Of tabor. Wherever skill, ingeMtuy. or
capital, each or all combined, is cony Prlied,
the products of the United StatesS lear
no competition. But they canliot com
pate with the poorly-paid labor Of thoS'e,
couf tries where the loborer has few o,
the comforts and none of the Injuries
of life, but is forced to accept for his
services sum barely sufficient TO keep
life in his body. The -ffee-tsade policy
of the Locofocos tends to reduce the
wages of labor in this country to a level
with the rates in The old countries The
manufacturer and miner in this country,
under the present tariff, finds that his
products must compete with those of the
pauper labor Of Great Britain. He must
therefore reduce his prices, or succnmb
under the unequal and ruinous competi-
ton. Such is the particular working OF
the tariff of 1916. 1t beueits ihe Eug
lish manufacturer and miner at the eX-
pensc Of the American laborer.

power was found to exist, at about $50

river, then a canal, and proceeded to erect
manufactures. At that time there was
