ATASON'S PATENT PURIFIED SPERM
lll QlI.-Thia Oil for hrilli d,,rah


Nl oIL.-This Oil, for brilliancy, durability,
and purity as light, and for Iubricating purpo-
ses, whether applied to the delicate works of
watch or the most ponderous machinery, surpasses
any oil now known
1T Is warranted not to gum, being entirely de-
prived of that substance, which so seriously i'm
pedes the rapid movement of all kinds of machine
ry; and for burning it is cheaper and better
than any oleagineus substance now in use.
While it affords light superior to gas or cam
phene, it is also free from the ngerous explosive
quality of the latter, being solely sperm oil
purified. - -. .a.-..
So pure is this oil that it will not freeze at any
degree of cold known within the limits of the
United States; having thereby in this, as in every
other particular, an advantage over the best sperm
oil as used .r
After devoting many years in experimenting
with the various oils, for the purpose of overcom.
ing their impurities as at present fabricated the
undersigned assures the public that he has sue
ceeded in producing the .sne plus ultra. of oils
He offers 1t as superior to any known oil in the
world for the purposes of burning and lubricating
and invokes the scientific of all countries to test
it and pronounce their opinion, satisfied that all
will agree that it is the finest oil offered for
sale. WILLIAM ID. TOWNSEND, Phila.

Hon. A. q. Brown.


Governor BOwn has addressed a letter to
the voters Of the 4th Congressional District in
which he confirms what has for some time
been understood and rurcrad abroad-that
he VIII not enter the canvass as a candidate
|for Congress The letter breathes the kindest
Feelings Of gratitude TO those who have so
long, under all circumstances, ever stood forth
among the number Of his fastest fiends-he
hints at no one whom he would mention as
his successor yet promises the candidate his
warmest supper: never doubling that the wis
dom Of the Convention will prompt them to a
choice which will do honor to the party and
the country.
Few representatives bid adieu to the station
|in which they have served their constituency
under circumstances so pleasing and fiattering
las those which attend the retirement of Gov.
Brown, loved and respected by all his own
party attached TO him by the warmest feelings
and sympathies-he must feel to some extent
that in quitting the position he has 50 long
and so honorably held that he is bidding adieu
TO a host of personal friends.
But having well improved the opportunities
he has enjoyed Of serving the people it is time
that he should be called to a higher station
land we confidently hope and expect to see him
returned by the new Legislature to the vacant
seat in the Upper House of our National coun-
|ciIs. We do not claim this because we think
he deserves it-for it is every mans duty to
his utmost abilities in the service Of his
party and country, but because our eyes rest
upon no man so well qualified and capable, as
we think, in every respect, to honor this high
station as well as the State he represents. We
shall continue to urge this matter from time
to time as occasion offers until a selection is
made and the choice ofthe people or their re-
representatives. made known.
A spirit Of hamony and disposition to bury
all old, dissentions and differences is recon-
mended and as other issues have arisen to
work quietly and jointly having laid these all
down at the foot of the altar of the party re-
constructed and re-afirmed-since the recent
storms-by the construction and adoption of
the Baltimore Platform.
