with ms associates in the open air; he will cx-

winter, and then leave him alone with his mates.

hard and dry outline of the old man, induced nv
over exertlon at an age which does not demand
violent exercise of any kind; besides this, sc
think such processes are apt to rctard the grow

clownish young fellow, who had far tbc last
eight months, undergone the most painful ex-

CITY AND STATE AFFAIRS.
To Advertisers.

The Tynchharg yirginian, now half a century
old. has acquired position second in influence to
but few. IL any other journals in the State; and
has n wider circulation than any newspaper pub
lishel SOUTHWEST Of the Metropolis. To say
nothing Of its circulation in this city and gh-
horhood--it is penetrating every part of that ex-
tensve region. which, by the completion of our
great lines of intercoamunication. has become
tributary to this city. As an advertising medium
therefore. it affords un'4nallci advantages to all
our business who desire 10 increase their
trade.
The Job OH e connected Herewith. is now one
Of the most extensive in the State, having been
provided during the last year with all the facilities
requisite to exceute any manner of work. from o
large poster to the most delicate wedding card
The proprietor has no disposition to puff the es-
tahlishment into notice, nor is it necessary since
his work speaks for ITSELF and the public have
shown their appreciation by increasing their pat
ronagc full fifty per cent in the last year.
All orders will meet with prompt attention.
