Last Sunday attended church in very ancient build

1t has been repaired the inside somewhat er the
same style OF the orgnathe seats and speakers stand
being very high In the wall is large stone slab whose
inscription states that the brick of which the church is
built were brought from England in l7Os In the ceme
try adjacent to the church graves which were dug in
lI02-3 There were also made graves of Rebel sol
ders, two of which killed by us at the time our
Company had the skrmish Oh Halls Hill lhis we learn
ed from the inscription upon the board that marked their
resting place.
We TOOK with us our arms when we went to church,
What would the people of Towanda think to see a con-
gregation going to church armed with rifles and at the
hurch door, long of " stacked AIMS" under the
care of sentinel while their owners were within listen
ing to the word Of Con, each having belt aud
rdgeboN containing forty rounds Of deadly messengers
Such was the picture portrayed on the occasion.
We are enjoying good health, as general thing. L.

reA- Ia paper entitled ESuiAe de Tout le
Moad. an explanation is given Of fact which has puz
zei sporting menuameIy, why the LETT barrel of gun
burst, much more lrequaltIy than the right: The ex
PLANTATION is this The sportsman on going out loads
io;a blrcs and on seeing bird rise fires naturally tie
ryh, one he reoad4 that barrel, and when he again
lri hare he fires again and 50 be does per
hlp twenty times in succession. Each firing give shock
70 The charge ia the left barrel and at last he succession
shots separates the wadding from the powder and shot
the consequence is that vacuum ensues between them
and when the second barrel is discharged it frequently
bursts To prevent this danger the recommendation Is
made that whenever the right hand barrel is loaded the
charge in the left hand one should also he rammed down
This looks reasonable at all events

A moments reflection ought to convince a sensible man
thartic Medicines. The practice is pernicious and suici-
dial. An experience of forty years has taught me that
the constantly increasing evils Of indigestion are fear
fully aggravated by the too free use of Cathartics. The
American people are fast becoming a nation Of dyspop }
tics by their artificial modes Of life. Drastic Cathartics
increase the ir~ritability, and PROSTATE the strength Of the
digestive organs.
The Pills now offered re especially designed to alIay
this irritability, and at the same time to invigorate AZ d
strengthen all the functions of digestion, while they are
gently laxative. They are %anOdyne, tonic and laxative.
They are so mild and invigorating that one is not remind.
Business Men, Students, Professional Men, Females, and
all persons leading a confined or sedentary life, should
try them.
