HA correspondent of the Steele Paris,
the government organ OF France writes from
Tunis, Algiers, as follows
"Our College of philosophers at home,
may, and probably do accomplish great
deal for The cause of science, but the Amer
leans are the people TO turn these discov-
cries 10 practical account. Many of the
modern inventions in use here are Ameri +.
can, and one American chemist, Dr. ]. C..
Aver OF Lowell, supplies much of the med
icine consumed in this country. His Cher
ry Pectoral, Pills, Sarsaparlla and Ague
Cure constitute the staple remedies here,
because they afe.of easy application, sure
in their results, and have the confidence OF
the people. While the science of Medi-
cine is carried 10 higher perfection in our
country (France) than any other, it strikes
a Frenchman as little singular that an
American Physician should furnish the
medical skill and remedies for our princi.
pal Province.
We are happy 10 inform our readers that
these superior medicines which The En-
peror's principal Province is obliged TO get
from America may be had by our neighbors
at all the Drug Stores IN BloomsSurg.

According to the Hartford Times, the
demand for Colts pistols is SO great that the
Company is scarcely able to keep in sight Of
their orders, and contemplate increasing their

now making three hundred pistols day and
about five hundred revolving rifles a month.
Contracts for ten thousand rifles, to be com

We are now living in tbe age Of Rebell-
ion. The South, not content with having
had the control of our Government almost
entirely ever since the formation of the Con
stitutOn, are now endeaEoFing to break up
our glorious Union, merely because for onee
the power is taken out of her hands. Overt
acts and hostility have already been COM
menced against the Federal authorities, and
where it will end, no man knows.
If there ever was a time wien every man
should take a good newspaper, which will
keep him posted in regard to the news of the
day, now is that time. Such a newspaper
is the LEADER.
In addition to the important matters oc-
curing in cur own country, the news from
Europe, for at least the year to come, will be
of stirring interest The heroic and patriotic
Garibaldi in struggling to build up a liberal
and united government in Italy; old thrones
are crumbling into ruin-sOOiety is in a
transition state.
The great advantages in taking Home
paper, like the Leader, over the Eastern
WeekIies are these:
Owing to our great Talegraphic arrange
menta, we are enabled to give news three to
Eve days earlier than can possibly be deliy-
cred by Eastern papers. The LEADER gives
more home news, both political and current,
than can be dOae BY Eastern cotemporaries.
The postage on the LEADER is ls to 2s cents
less year, than on Eastern papers. The
columns of the LEADHH will be enriched BY
the effusions of correspondents from all parts
of the Union.
There is one service that we solicit from
our Republican Friends, and that is, to lend
their aid in getting up Clubs for The coming
year. Let Il be remembered that we need
just the kind Of assistance that can only be
derived from friends scattered through the
country, and if each one wiz feel that he
ought to act and take hold with WILL We
can commence the new year with subscrip-
ton list greater than we ever had.
One hour in twenty-four spent in reading,
and ONE DOLLAR per year, viii give the
running history, aSi transpires, OF two con-
tinents, besides vast amount of information
on every subject and in every department OF
knowledge. There is no man who is not
able 10 spare the dollar and devote the time
for such a return.
A1ter presenting the above, we hope OuI
friends viii exert themselves to back US in
our enterprise.
