Great Discovery.

It has long been claimed that if we knew it,
there would be an herb, or combination Of
herbs, roots and banks that ould cure all the
ills human flesh is heir to. DR.. Mishler, with a
few of his professional friends, have kept this
idea constantly in view, and labored carefully
and perseveringly for years to ind this most
desirable treasure. Though they have not
found an instant cure for all complaints, they
have nevertheless discovered o remedy, which,
as yet, has never failed in curing Chills and
Dyspepsia and all diseases arising from any
impunity ofthe blood or disarrangement Of the
digestive organs, including Liver Complaint,
Coughs, Colds, Sick Headache, Neuralgia,
Nsryous ness, General Debility and all affections
Of the Kidneys and Urinary Organs.

THE PRINTERS EsTATE.-Th prin-
ser's dollars-where are they? A dollar here
and a dollar there, scattered over numerous
small towns all over the county, miles and
miles apart-how shall they be gathered to-
gether The paper maker, the building owner
the journeyman compositor, the grocer, the
tailor, and his assistants to him in carrying on
his business, have their demands, hardly ever
SO small as q single dollar. But the from here
and there must be diligently gathered and pa
tiently boarded, or the wherewith to discharge
the liabilities will never become sufficiently
bulky. We imagine the printer will have to
get up an address to these widely scattered
dollars something like the following:
"Dollars, halves, quarters. dimes, and: all
manner Of fractions into which We are divided,
collect yourselves, and come home Ye are
wanted Combinations of all sorts of men
that help the printer to become a proprietor,
gather such force and demand with such good
reasons for your appearance at his counter,
that nothing short of a sight of you will APP
pease them. Collect yourselves for valuable
as you are in the aggregate, single you will
never pay the cost of gathering Come in
here, in single file, that the printer may form
you into battalion, and send you forth again,
to battle for him and yindicate his credit
Reader are you sure you haven't a couple
OF the printers dollars sticking about your
so.d clothes -

EDITORS REPUBLICAN :-Here is a
scrap of information for those of your readers
who are fond of facts from Natural History. It
has been observed that garden seeds were new
er known to come up more rapidly than this
spring. Your correspondent recently planted
n few peas one day about noon, and in the eve
ming as he walked complacently forth to look
over the scene of bis Iabors, great was his as
Punishment at seeing that they were already
upl By this he does not mean, as folks gen.
orally do when they say their ''peas are up"
that simply few paltry green leaves were
just peering above the ground, giving only an
uncertain promise of possible realization in
the far future, but rather that he saw before
him the genuine ripe fruit in its full maturity.
Economical Of leaves and vines, it was grow
ing on the top Of the ground, as stones and
bricIlbats do. 1t is true, there was less to har-
vest than he had sowG a few hours before, but
then-the quick returns, you see!
To enquiring persons he would say, that
there is no patent fertilizer or hot-bed arrange
ment that can make seeds come up more quick
" than neighbours hc%z
