HUMPuREY's HoMGoPAruIc SPEcIFIcs had
their origin in great public want--me lcres
for all the common wants of enlightened life
c.ratives that fs.her, mother, nurse, or tray-
eler could always have With them, and always
rely upon-so simple that mistake could not
be made in the election, so harmless that all
might use them with impunity and so efficient
hat all might rely upon them with safety.
Such they have proved. Thousand of families
use them daily for all the ailments and sick
nesses of life and rarely are seriously sick, or
have need to Gala physician. Thousands
taking some single specific, have cur,l them
selves of chronic diseases which have been
the bane of their lives, and upon which they
have spent hundreds in vain, and among the
million who use them, none are found to ques
ton their purity or efficacy. Every family
should have a case See advertisement

81 have often inquired of myself what
great principle or idea it was that kept
this Confederacy so long together. It
was something in the Declaration Of In

that which gave promise that in due
time the weights should be lifted from
tho shoulders Of oil men, and that all
should have and equal chance. =
Now. my friends, can this country be

a Cast Woman.

A dashing young woman named Nellie
Otis, alias Burtis, has been arrested in
Boston for the larceny of Sc, 400 in mon
ey and government bonds, from a mapin
New York, on Friday night last. The
woman arrived in Boston on Monday, and
created considerable excitement among
the sporting fraternity, exhibiting SO 900
at a time, visiting the races and paying
for 80 bottles of wine and other liquors.
She placed $4,000 in the hands of a young
man to keep for her, and upon refusing
to return S2,700 of it, she made COM
plant at the Police Office. The man was
found, and $1,000 returned, as was sup
posed, to the rightful owner. The man
from whom the money was stolen in New
York then made his appearance, and re-
covered less than one half Of the $4,000,
but refuses to prosecute the weman.

An OIL Sraculation,

4 decidedly funny transaction in oil
occurred in Erie City few days since
Mr.. Jacob Aithott, Of the Althoif well,
discovered few days since that his eel
lar was partly filed with oil. lie always
thought his land was good oil territory,
but had no idea it was SO near the sur
face However, Jacob is practical man,
and without speculation much as to whe-
'her the oil Oozel through the earth, Or
whether a yeritable oil spring had brok
en- loose in the cellar, be set to work
pumping it out Thirty-two barrels Of
good quality petroleum were thus secured
David Kennedy and Co have large oil
refinery just across the road from Althofi'
and also an immense underground tank,
holding some eight hundred barrels
AlthoiT, showed them the oil, and they
bought the thirty two barrels at about
six dollars a banel-quitc reasonable
price-and thought they made COED
little spec. They contracted for al ia
cob's cellar oil at tic camc rate. The
latter rei:cl patiently for saore to collect.
TieauwhiIe Kennedy L 60. had occasion
TO examine their underground tank
Near the tank was found a crevice, and
they snclt something beside oil. TheJ
soon found that when their tank was fill |
ed Up TO This creyice the oil found its way
out Of the tank, and penetrated into their
neighbor's cellar They only lost con

back thirty two barrels Of ii at over six
dollars rer barrel and had contracted TO
keep on doing SO! The leak was stop

A Great National Curiosity.

The Sentinel, published at Jackson
vile, Oregon, of the 18th ult., says:
Several of our citizens returned last
week from visit to the great sunken
Lake, situated In Cascade Mountains,
seventy-fve miles northeast from Jack
sonville. This lake rivals the famous
valley of 'Sinbad, the Sailor" 1t is
thought to average two thousand feet
down to the water all around The walls
are almost perpendicular, running down
into the water, and leaving no beach
The depth of the water is unknown, and
its surface is smooth and unruffled, as it
lies so far below the surface Of the noun
tain that the air currents do not affect it.
It's length is estimated at twelve miles,
and its breadth at ten There is an is
land in its centre having trees upon it
No living man ever has, and probably
never will be able to reach the waters
edge. 1t lies silent, STILL and mysteri-
Gus in the bosom of the Everlasting
hills" like huge well, scooped out by
the hands of the giant genii of the noun
tains in the unknown ages gone by, and
around it the primeval forests watch and
ward are keeping The visiting party
fired rife several times into the water,
at an angle of forty five degrees, and were
able to note several seconds of time from
the report of the gun until the ball struck
the water Such seems incredible, but it
is vouched for by some of our most rei-
able citizens. The lake is certainly q
most remarkable curiosity

Homicide.

A man By the name of Carey, living in
Greenfield had on his place small peach
orchard which had suffered by the dep

day evening last, Carey sent his son, a
boy Of seventeen years, out to the orch
ard, telling him to take his gun, and it is
said directing him to shoot any trespass-
err The boy on approaching the peach
trees saw something dark moving among
them, and at once fired he then return
ed to the house saying, "Father | fetch
ed him that time sure" Carey instantly
went to the orchard and approached the
trees near enough to see an inanimate OBJ
iect laying on the ground He then ran
over to a neighbor's, Mr.. Snyder, whom
he addressed, saying, "my boy has shot
something among the peach trees; and l
am afraid it is your son, Snyder an
swered that "it could not be, for his son
had j1st gone down to turn in the COWS. "
Tie men, however, proceeded to the spot,
where they found the body of young sny-

buckshot. The scene that ensued, beg

out as in map, the city itself, with in
Vulnerable churches and converts, the
two great aqueducts which cross the plain,
the avenues Of elms and poplars which
lead to the city, the villages, lakes and
plains which surround it. To the north
the magnificent cathedral of Our Lady of
Guadalupe, to the South the villages of
San Augustin, San Angel and Tacubaya,
which seem embosomed in trees, like an
immense garden. And if in the plains
below there are many uncultivated fields,
yet with its glorious enclosure of noun
tains, above which tower the two mighty
volcanoes, Popocatepett and Iztaccihautt,
the Cog and Magog of the Valley, of
whose giant sides great volumes Of misty
clouds were rolling, and with its turgoise
sky forever smiling on the scene, the
whole landscape, as viewed from this
height is one of nearly unparalleled beau
