SOHENCKS SEAWEED TONG.

This medicine, invented by Dr. J. Fl.
SCHENCk, of Philadelphia, is intended to dis
solve the food and ma ke il into chyme, the first
process of digestion. By cleansing the sto-
mach with Schenck's Mandrake Pills, the
Tonic soon restores the appetite, and food
that could not be eaten before using it will
be easily digested.
Consumption cannot be cured By Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup unless the stomach and Iiv-
er is made healthy and the appetite restored,
hence the Tonic and Pills are required in
nearly every case of consumption \ half
dozen bottles OF the SEAWEED' TONIC and
three or four boxes Of the MANDRAKE

A correspondent of the New York Tri-
dune, writing from Constantinople, Nov
ember %, says, that, under the teachings
of the American missionaries, who have
been laboring among the American Chris
tians Of the Turkish Empire for the past
thirty years, and who have carried the
Bible into every village, these people have
become convinced that many of their rites
and practices as a church are contrary
to the plain teachings of the scriptures
Thousands are combining to compel the
church to renounce these errors, and 60
back to the simple teachings of the Bi-
Bile. All the young men, it is said, are
joining in this movement. The writer
speaks of the movement as ga striking ev-
idence of the success of the American
missionaries in bringing this people back
to the Bible as their only sure guide"

The NaW judges.

On Monday last the Associate Judges
Levering, re-elect, and De Young elect
took their seats upon The Bench for th'
new official term. 1t is needless to say
that both are well qualified for the posi-
ton. Judge Levering has already occu
pied his seat fer three terms of fiteei
years, and at all times, and under all cir
cumstances, has won hosts Of friends, BY
his urbanity and impartiality, and the
prompt manner in which he dispatches
business as it comes under his control
Judge De Young is we'll known to oul
citizens; and, IS he has the ability and le
gal knowledge to enable him TO fill the
position with credit to himself and the
public which elected him, We have nc
doubt he will make popular judge. =
Judge Nackey, who retires, carries with
him into his retirement the respect auc
esteem Of all who knew him. He made
a most excellent judge. Cur Bench a:
now constituted will compare with advan
tage with any other in the State.

fastidious visitor The house, in its ev-
cry department, was neat and clean as a

table supplied with eatables in abundance
and cooked in style which would bring a
smile OF appreciation upon the face of an

JANUARY 1st., 1867.

"a happy New Year l' one aad all,
Sings "Jemes," the Carrier boy;
And may it prove, to great and small,
A year of greatest joy.
A year in which may i'll, nor woe,
Nor bitterness of strife,
But only blessings on you flow,
And strew your path through life.
This is the prayer of your friend Jemes,
Ere he sings of the times,
And waits to pocket-not in dreams
Your ''postal" dollars and dimes.
He feels that from your lib'ral store
You'll grudge him not the "peff,"
But pay him well for having served
Most faithfully, the "Jef."
All thank, you patron, now I'll sing,
With spirits glowing, clear,
And to your minds in measure bring
The lesson for the year.

Robbery at the Court House---Fire- Proofs
Blown Open.

On Wednesday night of last week some
scoundrels, in search of plunder, forced
their way into the Court House, in this
Borough, broke open the doors Of the ofii-
ces Of the County Commissioners, County
Treasurer and Clerk of the Court of Quar-
ter Sessions, and made a general search OF
the premises The entrence to the several
Offices was made by boaring holes obliquely
through the doors and partly through the
frames, and then forcing them open with
an iron bar. From the Commissioners office
they took nothing but a suit of clothes,
belonging to the CLERK, Mr.. Leith, and
few silver coins, which they found in a
desk.
In the Treasurer's Office they were more
fortunate. The vault Of this Office was
forced by powder-an oblique opening,
somewhat like that in the door, being made
in the brick work The brick was
laid thoroughly bare, and the lock of the
vault was much battered. S25S, includ-
ing two checks amounting to $50, and one
check of Elisha Allis, payable to the or
der of A. S. Knecht, &c.,-were taken
from the vault, when the outlaws left,
satisfied with their efforts there. Efforts
were made to blow open the vault of the
Office Of the Clerk Of the Sessions, but the
effort failed. Marks of powder are dis
tinctly visible
A large iron bar was left in the Treas
ure's office, and a piece of fuse was found
in the Clerks office, showing that the
scoundrels were well prepared to prose
cute their rascally business. We believe
that this robbery was committed by par
ties well acquainted with the premises
and not by strangers, as is generally sup
posed, from the fact that they did not ap
pear to make any mistake in locking fol
the only place where any valuables were
likely to be kept. A reasonable reware
offered might possibly bring them t.
light.-Easton Sentinel, Dec. 20, 1866.
