Dentistry.

r. A. MILLER, Surgeon Dentist, of Hunting
don, Pa, will remain for few days at the
House of Mr.. Ca rrnon in this place, where he
is prepared TO wait those requiring his SER
vices AS he comes well recommended, we
have no doubt he is complete master of his pro-
fession, and will give satisfaction to those
who will employ him. We would suggest to
such of our friends as stand in need of Den-
tist, to operate on their teeth, the propriety OF
giving the Doctor a call. We are requested to
state that t is the intention of DR.. Miller to
visit our borough about four times year, and
this circumstance should dissipate the preju-
dice existing in the minds of many of our citi
zens against travelling dentists, at least so far
as he is concerned.

The Foreign News.

The foreign news in to- days paper is of the
most interesting character. The Russian
Army has been defeated by the Hungarians,
who compelled them to fall back upon Cracow,
thus transferring the revolution to Poland.
About $4,000 Russian troops were compelled
to surrender, and this circumstance has given
new impulse to those battling in the cause of
liberty throughout Europe. All the auguries.

The present course of things in Europe.
FIRST we see Italy emerging from the lethar-
gy OF ages, into the muscular manhood of a
brave and vigiiant nation. Next Hungary as
tounds theworld by her display of confidence
and courage, equal to a nation of century
trained warriors; and now, at last. we are star
tied by the annunciation that Russia hsxaelf
has been defeated with great and over W elnino
loss. See the latest telegraphic news by the

1--WE learn from our exchanges that they
are talking in Philadelphia and New York
about getting up meetings for the purpose of
giving expression 10 The universal feeling of
sympathy which pervades the entire popula-
ton of the United States relative TO the strug-
gle for liberty and republicanism which is now
going on in Hungary, France, Italy, Germany,
and Poland. The eyes Of all are turned to Eu.
rope, and the deepest anxiety is felt by our
people in the success of the great effort now
being made by the down -trodden millions of
Europe to shake off the chains of tyranny
The news of the momentous occurrences IN Eu-
rope read with the greatest avidity by the
American people, and it is subject of COM
mentary in all circles. The following spirited
declaration is taken from the New York Hera Id
In the meantime, it appears now to be
an appropriate crisis for the people of the
United States, full ofwealth and enterprise,
and enjoying peace and all the comforts OF
liberty and prosperity, to consider the sit
uation which the free institutions of Euro
pean nations are PLACED in, and the dan
ger which threatens them. When Ireland
suffered undered under famine, a few
years back, the benevolence of the United
Estates expressed itselfin a substantial man
ner. Ought not the sympathy ofthe A.
merican people equally to show, at this
time, what the feeling of this country is
towards the great liberal party of Europe
in the approaching contest? Ought not
subscriptions to be opened, and an Ameri.
can legion now to be organized, of five OIL
ten thousand men, to cross the Atlantic
and aid in the approaching struggle offree
republican government against unmitigated
despotism?

pend entirely upon the energy of the
French republic, and of those States in
Germany and Italy which think with Them

ought to be, collected, to aid and assist in
the great liberal cause of Europe. A lie.
