BROOKLYN, n. v, Dec. Goth, 1853.
For about eight years I have been severely
afflicted with Asthnai for the last two years have
suffered beyond all my powers Of description;
months ~ a time have not been able 10 sleep In
bed, getting what rest could sitting In n chair.
My difficulty OF breathing, and my sufforlngs, were
great NJ times, that for honrs together my friends
expected each hour would be my last. During
the past years ihaye had the aid and tendance
of some OF the most celo brated physicians. but
have received no permanent relief. I at length
had ihc good fortune 70 procure DR.. Curtls's Hyge
ana, or lnhaNng NapOr and Cherry Syrup. AZ tho

most siolcnt attacks, and was In great distress
almost sufOcating for went OF BREATH IN less thar

comfortable night. I have since continued

70 be, via: an unequalled romidial agent for all

Sci OF demagogueS, who, not content with mo-
nopoiizing the slntenseiy American feeIing,"
without clam or ability, are attempting to mo-
1 nopolize all the Offices
The fusion between Democrats and old line
/ Wings is an honorable one, because it is only
Oh local issues. Each party preserves its Ma
tlonal organlzatIon-its Old and long CHERISHED
principles, aud only aids in exterminating an
anti-republican and dangerous institution, foun-.
/ ded IN corruption, and KEEP; alive only by hy
pocricy aud deception.
Let the Intelligent voter look to the fusion of
/ the old office hunters, where Wings and Demo-
Gratis have banded together not in such man
ner as teave them free to act and think for
themselves, butrsby oathS, blindly to follow the
hehests of The fungi that has clung for wears to
the old parties. This is Know Nothingism-
more patrlotlcally speaking, ssAmericaaism." -
''Poverty nakes strange bed-frlows," saith the
old ada5e, and II never was better exempiiGrd
than in the fusion of the old Office pauprrs, who
/ under specouS cry of'sDown with Foreigners
and the Pope, boased that they would destroy
both parties. The rankest and most intolerant
Wings, going hand IN hand with ultra, but bro
ken down Democrats, is phenomenon that
PROBABLY could not exist if not celnented by
oatas and seasoned by proiase promises Of loavsS
aud fishes
The ticket at the head Of our paper contaius
the names of five wings. They were nominated
in open day, by delegates CHOSEN by that party
and not voted for ~ the secret councils of.tfly
Know Notbngs. The honorable Wigs, weo
do not wander after every false god that makes
IFS appearance in the polltica arena, will sup
port them, and those who are on theticket with
them. The Democrats Of Blair County will do
the same, and there is not shadow Of doubt
but that the ticket, 50 tremendously picked up
on, will be most triumphaatly elected. Who
can doubt the issue, when it IS a fusion of hon
orabIe men, openly formed to elect men to Off I
ces qualified to Gil them, against cabal of po-
hticaI renegades whose aspirations 10 flI office /
are not warranted by honesty, qualifications, Of |

Fruit and Flowers.

When God first framed this world of ours.
For beauty and for love,
Each attribute would try its powers,
It's varied skill would prove.
All. all but Mercy had share.
And she stood silent by,
Gazing upon the work so fair,
VITA earnest, longing eye.
The Father saw her darling face,
And read her wishes too,
AID said, il is sinIess place,
What is there you can do?''
She quickly sent her searching eve
Through our earth's fresh green bowers.
Then murmuTed with gentle sigh.
"There's neither fruit nor howers''
4 smile the wished commission gave,
Then swift as light she flew,
Her wings of violet to lave
In Eden's morning dew.
Up rose the sun; bat what a sight
Met his admiring view
The bursting buds speak their delight
Through tints of richest hue.
The flowers on every side look up
" I'M NUHueF 10 Inc SkyS
While nestled in each tiny cup,
Fruit germs lay lovingly.
New songs were borne upon the breeze,
New JOY earth's dweIlers feel:
For e'eu the birds and humming bees
Their bliss cannot conceal.
But when this happiness 10 spoil,
The monster sin appeared,
Thlsflrs and thorus from out the soil
Their heads as quickly reared.
Then Mercy wept, for we'll she knew
She had no power 10 stay
The curse that man upon bim drew,
BY leaving wisdomS way.
But still her work she must pursue,
And soften his sad hours
Chnice fruit upon the rough thorns grew,
Upon the thIsiles, flowers.

ton to Esquire Simms, oil Birmingham, to the
effect that the said iron dealer was engaged in
receiving and selling stolen property. About
the same time letter was received by Mayor
Adams police, to the same effect. Warrants
We're issued for John Lythe and Henry Nicho-
las, both secondhand dealers of A allegheny, and
they were arrested on Friday, and committed
TO Jail on Saturday, for further hearing before
Mayor Adams, Thursday next.
In the meantime officer Hague received in
formation OF the matter, ard consulted with one
of the Canal Board, who advised him 10 pro-
coed Immediately TO the line of the Portage
Road, from whence the iron had been stolen,
and, if possible, arrest the parties. He did so
and in Cambria county succeeded in arres-
ting twenty-sx men who are supposed to have
been concerned in the larceny. They are now
lodged ~ the county Jail. The parties were
all IN the employ of tn State, and were en-
gagged on the Portage Railroad. The iron was
cut up and shipped in barrels TO various points
in the West. Thirteen barrels have been re-
covered in this city.
Another lot consisting Of thirty-iour barrels,
which is supposed 10 be part of the stolen
metal, will likely be recovered also. The po-
lice are busily engaged in ferreting out those
concerned in the transaction. Some shipments
have been made 10 Cincinnati, and TO other
points on the Ohio river. There is no doubt
but that the greater portion of the iron will be
found. 1t is worth about two cents per pound,
and was sold for old iron The total value Of
the amount alleged TO have been stolen would |
be $4,000.
1t is supposed that these men have been en-
gagged in this infamous business for some months |
past, and that there are many more implicated |
who will yet be arrested. Piisburg Union, I

HON. GEO. w. JONES.

This gentleman spent the greater
part of last week in our county, and
while here addressed the people at
several points, upon the exciting ques-
ltions at issue in the canvass. He is
thoroughly posted in the politics Of
the day, and is doing yeoman service
in the good old cause of which he is
a worthy and faithful advocate. But
although he had no recognized OPP
ponent, he was not suffered to 60 I'M
answered. The Know-Nothings knew
that he was "a dangerous customer"
and they took care to have him fol-
lowed. But they paid dearly for their
whistle, and got but poor comfort for
their pains. He foored their orators
on every occasion, and did infinitely
more for his party and his cause, than
if he had been suffered to make his
speeches without opposition. Now
that he has quasi opponent, we trust
that he will come among us again; for
wherever he goes he is sure to leave
his foot-prints-foot-prints that will
grow deeper and more indelible until
the first Thursday in August, when
we predict his reelection to Congress
by an increased and overwhelming
maiority.-CoIumJia Herald.

Killing C0yn-Hilling corn is an
attempted substitute for deep plough
ing. If corn land is ploughed deep,
there is no need of killing. The
roots will strike down, instead Of
stopping at a hard pan and waiting
for mellow earth in the form of killing
to be put over them. By deep
ploughing you give the roots chance
to 60 down, and they will 60 as deep
as nature requires; without having
the earth piled over them. Nevel
disturb the roots by blowing after the
tenth of July.
