DIED,


Tn this village, on Tuesday, the sth inst, Mrs.
PAMELA L., wife of JAMES BARNS, aged
20 years.
The occasion of her death was the explosion
of can Of kerosene oil, the gas from which ig-
nitcd while she was filling lamp, by which she
was severely burned on the hands and arms and
about the head and neck. She fingered for
more than four weeks and the fond expectation
was entertained by all her friends and neigbbors
that she would recover, but the fat had gone
forth, and, although every means was resorted
to that the best medical skill could devise, yet
the injury was 90 severe that she sunk beneath It,
She had been married about eleven years,
and was beloved by all who knew her--her kind
genial manners had endearcd her to large cir
Gle of friends, and the loss is severely felt by
her surviving partner and and large family of
relatives The funeral was held in the COngre-
gational Church, where, in the absence of Rev.
j. ANDERSON, Rev. ID. NJ. CooPER, of the
Presbyterian Church oficiated. The whole viii
lage testified their respect by being present On
the 18th, Sabbath, Rev. j. ANDERSON again i'm
proved the subject from the pulpit to large con-
gregation. Our sympathies are extended to
the mourning relatives, with the hope that He
who alone can dry up the mourners' tears may
afford them consolation. [CoM.

Ey- The long continued rains, and the
rough, unpleasantness Of the weather,
during tho past six weeks, have prevent
ed our farmers, TO n very great extent,
from harvesting their corn, potatoes, &c,
beside interfering with out door work
very generally. At no time within our
recollection, at this season of the year, es-
pecialy, have we had such a thorough
drenching and soaking as within the pc
Rod above stated. With fair weather
during the present and next month no
difficulty need be apprehended in the
completion Of harvest, although for a
time it has been thus deferred.

natinG In Ailiary deraAgcment, caused
By the Malayia Of miasmafic countries.
No one remedy b louder called for by the
necessities Of the American people than q sure
and sefe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
We ne now enabled to offer. with a perfect
certainty thst It viii eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
NO harm can axise from its use in any quan-
tity.
That which protects from or prevents thi.
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails. Prevention il
better than cure. for the patient escapes the
risk which he mus: run in violent attacks of
this baleful distemper. This "CuRE" expels
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AeuE
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, if taken on the first ap-
preach Of its premonitory symptoms. 1t is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class Of complaints. but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
4 dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND Aeux prevails. every body should have it
and use It freely both for cure and protection.
II is hoped this price will place it within the
reach Of all-the poor "a well q the rich. A
great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER
tain cure of 1ntermittents is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral. consequently it pro-
duces no quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
bx it are left as healthy as if they had never
hdd the disease.
Fever and Agueis not alone the consequence
Of the miasmafic poison. A great variety of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness. Tcsthache, Earache. Catarrh. Asth-
ma. Pslpifation, Painful Affection of the
Spleen. Mysteries. Pain in the Bowels, Coic,
