The Wheeling Gazette of Tuesday
says that the drought in that region
o'the country has been and is be-
Yond all precedent at this season Of
the year. They have had no rain
for about six weeks, and in all the
surrounding country the streams and
springs are dry. In limestone re-
gions much sickness prevails, and
cattle have been driven, in some in-
stances for miles, to obtain water.
The late corn is materially injured,
while the grass is generally dried up.

An affecting little incident occur
red at the lower market yesterday
morning. A lady with a full basket,
on the top Of which were a couple
of ham steaks, made a purchase
which required her 10 set her basket
on the pavement moment. Scarce
ly had she done so, when a little
emaciated girl grabbed one of the
steaks and began to tear it with her
teeth. The owner seized her by the
shoulder, when she burst out crying,
begging not to be hurt, saving, 81
haven't had anything TO eat for so
long, nor my mother neither"
The lady Immediately handed her
quarter and told her to go and buy
some bread, and run home. Some
of the bystanders added their mite in
money. A little girl then led the
little sufferer to q bakery, where she
could buy some food. The whole
scene was very touching. How few
of those who are enjoying the luxu-
ries, think for moment OF those who
lack the necessaries of life, or are
thankful TO the Giver of All Good
for the bounties showered on them

A'NEw PRIMER-THE Car TO BE

AiNEw PRIMER-TRB Car TO BE
|SUPEasEDED.-The National lntelli-
gencer Of a late date has an exceed
Iingly complimentary notice OF new
mode of priuiing firearms, which i
says is bound 10 suPersede every
other known mode. It's Maynard's
invention, and has been fully tested
and the patent therefor purchased
BY the United States. Two hundred
muskets and thirty thousand of the
primers were sent to Texas, where
for four months they were subjected
by the United States troops to the
usual trials and exposures OF militia
ry arms in field service. This practi-
cal trial secured from the officers a
very favorable report. Caps were
supposed to be beyond Improvement
but they will have to give way to
the new mode and will soon be as
obsolete as the flint. The appear
ance OF the gun is much improved
by the new system, as the ugly and
ominous snail-shell guard is dispensed
with, admitting Of a simpler, neater,
and more compact work, while the
action Of the lock and the cost Of
the gun remains the same. A
knowledge Of its merits and advanta-
ges secures all that is now necessary
to insure the adoption of this system
wherever the most perfect and eff
cient arms for military purposes can
be required, and where the same ad-
vantage is appreciated for sporting
guns, rifles, &c. The invention is
extremely simple; it changes neither
the model, weight, nor action of the
gun, and is applicable to any kind OF
firearms. The gun primes itself,
and that too with a precision unat-
tain able by hand, without regard TO
position, or temperature, or climate,
or light, or benunfbed, or bruised and
clumsy fingers, or awkwardness Of
the soldier or sportsman. The in
crease in the rapidity Of firing is
very great, as might be supposed;
while it is much safer than the cap
heretofore regarded as the most
safe.) The Hartford Times says it
has seen this new primer on one Of
Sharp's rifles, and that it is fully
equal in performance TO all that has
been said OF it. The gun is supplied
with fifty primers at once, which re-
quires no longer time than 10 cap an
ordinary double barreled fowling
piece. Another good quality about
them is, there is no miss fire about

casting off all its WORN ONT particles,
which are carried out of the system,
through the pores of the skin: When,
however, the skin becomes locked up from
sudden changes of weather, or any IN
due application Of cold. all the humors,
and virulent particles of the blood are re-
tanned within, and sickness and death
must follow. All the long catalogue of
diseases are the result. We have, under
such circumstances, discovered remedy
that will OPEN the pores and assist the
body to cast of any offending humor. 1t is
1IeATster's AII-HsnIInE Ointment. or the
WORLDS SALVE'
It opens those avenues through which
nature carries off the impurities within,
and Ihus relieves the body Of disease. 1t
is tins that it cures Consumption, Scroiu-
Ia, Feyers. Irresypelas, Asthma, Salt

Sores, and Infiammations Of every kind,
without destroying the tone Of the Sto-
mach as is generally done by the intro
duction aud continuance Of Pills and other
nOsirums.
Il is by acting upon this principle thai
il is proved to be one Of the most extraor-
binary medicines the world ever saw.
Its success in curing disease is altogether
unprecedented in the annals Of medical
Jurisprudence.
This we might demonstrate by the pub
lica,ion Of thousands Of certificates from
individuals of high standing in all parts
Of the United States, who have expe-
rienced It's ASTONISHING EFFICACY in the
healing of the most affecting maladies to
which mankind is subject. But we ap-
peal to a candid and enlightened public.
and only ask that the numerous cures
which are being effected by this Ointment
wherever it has been used, may secure
for it that reputation which il merits
that due attention be paid to the Direc-
