that shall adduce, neither weuld you
believe though one arose from the dead
and told you of the great efficacy of the
Lithontriptic. @
The Faculty and the public may be
surprised TO hear of remedy that win
certainly dissolve Calculi, or Stone In
the Bladder, and cause it to pass off
with the urine, and permanently cure
almost all the chronic diseases of the
Urinary Organs, those heretofore in
durable diseases. But the proprietor
is certain that at last he has found out
this great desideratnln an Medicine, a
certain and safe cure for these diseases
for the Faculty and the afflicted to give
his medicine fair and impartial trial,
and he has no doubt that they will
be thoroughly convinced of its grea.
efficacy and if it does not do what he
represents it to do, he would like to
know it and let it be exposed; but if
it does effect these cures, he hopes, for
the sake of su6eriag humanity, the F'a-
cuity-the guardians of public health
will give it their influence. There is
no humbuggery in the Lithontriptic;
every certificate is genuine. and tho
proprietor viii give one thousand dol
lars to any person who will find out
one spurious certificate.
Any person doubling the truth of
any thing that has been said, is ear
nestly and respectfully requested to
correspond with any person whose
name is annexed to any certificate, and
thereby convince himself of the truth
of every thing that has been published.
The number of bottles that it usu-
ally takes to cure is from one TO five /
though il has been known to take ten
bottles where there were extremely
large formations of CaIcui or Stone
to be dissolved in the bladder.

most wonderful certificates In the world,

The Governor of Minnesota recommends in his lu-
augural Message, that the present banking law, IN
whose provisions the people repose no confidence, es
repealed, and that one Of seme neighboring State
Wisconsin, for instance-long tried and trustworthy
be enacted in tie place. This would give us currency
which will aid business, and relieve Minnesota from
much Of the troubles into which she fell through the
insecure law low on her statute books.
The Detroit Free Press represents that the fund for
the repair Of the Saul Ste. Marie Canal has recently
been depleted to the extent Of $4,000, by transac-
ton which is not vet clearly understood. The last
Legislature of Michigan authorized the Issue Of bonds
to the amount of $4,000 for the repair of the canal
These bonds were negotiated with the Artisans Bank
ofNew-York and the proceeds left with it, subject to
the draft Of the proper State officers. Isems that the
State officer drew for some 5000 Of these proceeds
in favor OF +. r. Hazelton & Co., firm of brokers
lately doing business in Detroit, whose banking con-
Germ collapsed the other day.
The Chicago Press and Tribune givesthe following
wise advice to Western merchants:
"Frequenty during the past year, did we feel 1t to
be o II duty to urge Western merchants TO purchase
spaInely, and 10 sonne their invoices to plap sub
ii sal goods and such ices as are commonly reck-
oned among the neeessaries of life. We deemt equally
irnpera i've TO commence The year lS6O with similar
warnings. The West cannot yet afford to indulge in
Injuries and for their own permanent 1000 cur ner-
charts should not tempt the PEG etc buy them West
ern jobbers and merchants will be making out
their orders for the Spring trade We entreat them to
observe the same prudence and ,autlon which they
practiced the past year. Better by far 10 be obliged
[, order twice, or half-a.dozen times, than to
load dow their shelves with unstable goods or ex-
travagan articles which they are obliged touse every
dehonorable art to palm off upon their customers.
This advice is the more needfu az Western firms
are now in much better credit than they were year
ago. The New York importers and jo5bers argue cor
recty that houses that have paid promptly during the
fearful reyulsion through which we have passed,
good for oil they can be induced 10 buy Hence every
possible inducement will be- held out for Western
chants to purchase largely. Goods will be offered
VERY rery ckeap credits will be extended, aud the
syren cong of large business and large fortunes will be
sung to most enchanting melody. We sound the note
of solemn warning against yielding TO music decep
tive Let no man be ured by it to his own embarrass
ment and, perchsnee, destruction"

At Hackwiler, on the Lower Rhine, a Roman villa
has recently been discovered, containing bathing es-
tanele of nearly square mile in DIMENSIONS Among
the objects which the excavstors have already brought
to light gre blocks Of polished stone, of va
rons shapes and sizes, in marble and porphyry. The
interior OF the bathing apartments contains fnccoes and
sculpused works of remarkable beauty, and the fsg
meniary walls richly enameled and painted in oil,
red and blue colors predOminating The debris of a
very thick mirror Of little, exqnstely formed toilet
iugs and other articles denotng that this establishment
was at one time in successful operation have been col
leeted by the workmen.
Some time since an old lady and her two daughters
entered dagueJrisn establishment 10 Brookvile, Pa,
and in looking the portraits the mother dseov-
cred one which she st recognized as that OF her
son Robert, who had left home at the commencement
of the Mexican war rs volunteer, and had never
been heard of since that time. The dagnerreotyPst
gave the address of the original Of the portrait and in
short time the mother found her son residing in
Pittsburgh.
