conscience, while the Adiutani, who
suddenly found himself famous, was
perfectly satisfied to discontinue his
visits at the house The affair was
officially reported to General Hancock,
who observed that the officer had
done the only thing which would re-
tain his rank in the service.

ACCOMMODATING In the wild West
crn ncighborhood the sound of a
church-going bell BAD never been
heard: notice was given that the Rev.
Mr.. A., n distinguished Presby-
terrain divine, would preach on a GER
tain day
The natives, who consisted mainly
Of those hardy pioneers who have pre-
coded civilization, came to hear him.
They had an indistinct idea that
preachin was something to DO
heard, and all attended to hear it.
After the service had Legun, raw
boned hunter with rifle in hand, and
all the accoutrements of the chase
about him, entered and took the only
vacant seat "a nail keg, without either
head The current thoughts of the
preacher, led him into a description
OF heaven and its inhabitants With
great power he had drawn picture
of the habitation of the blessed, and
was assigning each of the patriarchs,
apostles and prophets, his appropri-
ate place. His Calyinistic tendencies
led him to reserve the apostle Paul
for his climacteric. With bis eye fixed
upon the highest point, and with All
upward gesture that seemed to be Iii
rected to tho loftiest altitude Of the
heavenly places, he said:
And where, my brethren, shall we
seat the great Apostle Of the Gentiles
where, | say, shall we place the apos-
tie Paul? ~
Then pausing to give the magma
ton time to reach the elevation de-
signed for the apostle, he fixed his
eyes upon our hero Of the rifle. He,
therefore, thinking the address per-
sonal, rose instantly, and replied:
If he can't do no better, he can
take my seat ''
1t is need ess to say the climax was
never reached.

He is rich enough who wants moth

Lies have long legs but weak backs
Better the feet slip than the tongue.
He begins to die who hath no de

Few ofu are fools always; all some
times.
An evil nature never wants occa-
sion
Kind words cost nothing and 80 a

Nature cures and the doctor takes

Benefits like flowers, please while

A modest woman should often Meth

He that strikes with his tongue
must guard with his hands
Human existence hinges upon tri-

Judgment is the throne of prudence
and silence is its sanctuary
True sensibility leads us to over
come our feelings for the good of 9th

To work insatiably requires much
less mind than to work jndieiously.
Bells and priests may cull others
to holiness, and know nothing of it

Swiss BRIDAL CusroNL Il learned
yesterday n bridal custom of this re-
gion so sensible and proper. that |
shall mention it for the young folks at
home, The custom Of making gifts
to the bride prevails here, as every
where, but it is better regulated The
bride makes out written list of the
things she will require in beginning TO
keep house, especially those things
that are over and bove what would
naturally be furnished by her friends,
and one Of them says, IL will give her
this, and marks that as provided far,
another will give her that, and some
times two or three more will combine
and furnish more expensive present
than any one would give alone. After
the wedding the couple usually start
off on an excursion. and on their re-
turn they find their dwelling filled
with these presents, each marked with
the giyers name. At the hotel where
lodged in st. Gallen, bridal party
of the town had the wedding break
fast, when | was there, all tho, rela-
tiyes and friends making larger par

time their reputation has extended until they have
sale in of all other Cathartic and Purify
ing Medicines. There is hardly family among
civilized nations who have not personal evidence OF
their beneficial effects. Their great success is ow-
ing to their uniform reliability in cases of Consti-
patton, Bilious and Stomachic diseases, whether of
long short duration. They are entirely vegeta-
BILE in their composition and harmless to the gent
lest infant. One ingredient opens the pores of the
skin; another is diuretic, and stimulates proper
action of the kidneys; third is emollient, loosen
ing phlegm and humor from the lungs; other prop.
critics are warming and cathartie, and cleanse the
stomach and bowels from unhealthy secretions-
Their combined effect is, to regulate the impaired
functions of the system, and to produce health. 1t

They are expressly made for these diseases. Mil

Proofs of the Superior Quality
of the
American Watch
made at
WALYHAN6. MASS,

The American Watch Company, of Waltham,
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches are
cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more dura-
BILE, and better adapted for general use, and more
easily kept in order and repaired than any other
watches in the market They are simpler in
structure, and therefore stronger and less likely
to be injured than the majority of foreign watch
es, which are composed of from l25 to 800 pieces,
while in an oldEnglish watch there more than
700 parts. How they run under the hardest trial
watches can have, is shown by the following let
ter:
PENN. RAILROAD COMPANY.
OFFICE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT,
Altoona, Pa, Is Dec, 1856.
GENTLEAEN-Tho watches manufactured by
you have been in use on this railroad for several
years by our enginemen, to whom we furnish
watches part of our equipment. There are
now some three hundred of them carried on our
line, and we consider them good and reliable
time keepers. Indeed, / have great satisfaction
IN saying your watches give US less trouble, and
have worn and do Tear much longer without re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road. As you are aware we formerly
trusted to those of English manufacture, of ac-
knowiedged good reputation; hut class they
never keep time as correctly, nor have they done
as good service as YOURS
In these statements / am sustained by my pre-
decessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over series of years Respectfully,
EDWARD II. WILLIAMS,
General Superintendent
American Watch Co., Waitham.
We make now FIVE different grades of watches,
named respectively as follows:
Appleton, Tracy Co., WaItham, Mass
Waltham Watch Company, Waltham, Mass
p S. Bartlett, Yaltham, Mass
VIM. Ellery, Boston, Mass.
Home Watch Company, Boston, Mass.
All of these, with the exception of the HONS
Watch Company, are warranted by the American
Watch Company to be of the best material, on
the most approved principle, and to possess every
requisite for reliable time-keeper. Every dealer
| selling these watches is provided with the Com
pany's printed card of guarantee, which should
accompany each watch sold, so that buyers may
feel sure that they are purchasing the genuine
| tice. There are numerous counterfeits and imi
| tations of our watches sold throughout the coun
| try, and we would caution purchasers to be OF
| their guard against imposition.
| ANY grades of Waltham Watches may be pur
| chased of watch dealers throughout the country

Pain in the had, dizzy, bilious, costive, sick
from any cause, it is from the presence of offend
ing humors, and this is SO whether the pain be in
the hesh, the nerves or the bones,
BRANDRETH'S PILLS
should be always ready, and are sure to purge,
and this can be done according to the necessities
of nature, by which the offending humors are
removed, and the health restored.

of Brandreths Pills than of all others put to-
gether."
BRANDRETH'S PILLS are sold by all drug
gists, and at the principal Office, Brandreth
House, New York.
