Having had several opportunities of witnessing
the operation of the admirable stove described
below, and being fully convinced of its great con
yenience, utility, and especially its economy. we
take pleasure in recommending it to the atten.
tion of the public and we do this voluntarily,
and without the knowledge of the proprietor -
New THING OF THE RIGHT KIND.-In
these days of terrible cold weather, when even
the mercury IN the thermometer cannot keep
comfortable without descending below zero,
the right kind OF an appliance to keep the
house, office, or shop at agreeable temper
AZURE, is prime necessity, and thing indis-
pensable. To those who use stoves we have
word to say, and it is no mercenary puff"
either. After trying various heaters, of as
many different patterns, to our non satisfac-
ton, we have now got Just the right article.
1t is stove invented aud manufactured by
Mr.. William CaPron Conductor on the Prov

Of combustion ana radiation I; whereas, IN
most stoves very large per cent. of heat is
lost BY immediate escape through the pipe and
chimney. Hence our stove is an economical
one, heating as it does our office with at least
one third less fuel than the old one, aud keep

Another good feature is the admirable mani
agement of the draft. 1t can be regulated so
as to give any desired quantity of neat, and
will retain even moderate fire over night.
AS regards the economy Of this stove, Mr..
Capron informs us that one of twelve inch

four hours, with only sixteen pounds of coal.
We have not tested ours by weight of fuel,
but are convinced Of a considerable saving

SUDDEN ILLNESS OF Mr.. GIDDINGs.-In the
House on Saturday, while earnestly discussing
private bill, Mr.. Giddings of Ohio was seen to
put bis hand to his head and fall into his seat,
being seized with atrophy of the heart. The
members and spectators we're at once thrown INTO
the highest state OF alarm. The Speaker and
numerous Representatives cried out to those who
pressed around him to stand back and give him
air. Amid the excitement the House adjourned.
Mr.. Giddings was removed to the lobby, where he
was attended by several members who pbysi-
clans. II was some minutes before he could be
restored TO consciousness He evidently suffered
intensely. He was carried TO sofa in the
Speakers room. and several city physicians were
summoned TO attend him, and every attention
was bestowed upon him. His condition was con-
sideFed extremely critical.
Mr.. Giddings was removed from the Capitol to
his bdgings in the evening, and the prospects of
his recovery were improving. His attack was
much more severe than former similar one.
Sunday night he was in fair way to recover.

The bitter, unrelenting persecution
visited upon those Democratic members of
the Pennsylvania Legislature who voted
against Mr.. Forney for United States Senator
wall probably drive enough Of them into the
Republican ranks to give to the latter per-
manent majority in the Legislature. As a
specimen OF the feeling against these boilers,
we see that one OF them has received an in
sulting letter hom six OF his fellow Democratic
members. boarding at the same hotel with
him, IN which they request him to remove TO
other quarters, and deny him association with
them on equal terms. He replies in a spirited
strain, and promises to take up his bed and
depart. Both the PennSyiraniaa and the
Washington Ul1ofs read the anti. Forney Dem.
ocrats out Of the party with much formularv
denunciation and abuse. Forney being thus
made the test Of Democracy, the party will
speedily find itself IN the minority in the Kew
Stone State. The democratic party has not
been wont to make such blunders as this, and
IL rs among the evidences OF It's disintegration
and dissolution. Mr. Buchanan waa stronger
than his party the State accepted him, but
