the cure of Incipient Consumption, Coughs,
Colds, Group, Asthma, Liver Complaints Dys
pepsia, and Gen eral Debility. For several years
/ have been urged by kind friends, who have
used, and been benefited by my Life Syrup, to
put it up for general sale; but few know the
large exp pense, row that the country is flooded
with Patent Medicines, which attend the same.
For years past / was reluctant to do so, the
capital required would be large, and did not
wish to curtail the operations OF my Venetian
Liniment business. But, thanks to the gener-
Gus public, who have appreciated my Venetia n
Liniment, am now able TO do so without any
detriment to my large business in that medicine
The foundation of my success attribute to at
tending to the manufacture of every drop my
self, and shall do the same in regard TO my Pull
monic Syrup. The Ingredients are perfectly
harmless, but act on the Lungs and Liver with
astonishing effect. Price IS cents. Depot. No.

We have received the advance sheets of
highly interesting and most exciting and
graphic work, bearing the above title, which
is now in press and will soon be issued. We
have never perused sketches of a similar
character in which we became more deeply
absorbed, and taking these advance sheets as
a criterion of what the work itself will be,
it is safe to predict that Sunshine and Shad-

world seldom equalled and never surpassed.

BUIIsKINs as. TANNERs.-In emulation
of the Tanners Club Of Johnstown, which
visited this place couple Of weeks since,
the Republicans here got up similar or
ganization, and on Friday evening last they
made their first public parade with flaming
torches, but without the requisite capes,
caps, etc. They presented quite respecta-
bte appearance, but many of the persons in
the line were beardless boys, aud altogether
it was mere empty show, signifying moth
ing. On Monday evening some twenty or
twenty-five Democratic juveniles got up a
burlesque parade, AID their appearance on
our streets, unknown and unanuounced, :,
created a good deal of merriment. They
were preceded by a most discordant band,
in which horns, drums, whistles, etc, figured
conspicuouslv, after which came transpa-
rency bearing the following legends: "Bull-
skin Club-the tail end of hide Grant is
not able to tan "'Rah for Grunt and Poll
tax-'Let Us have Peace -" 'How are you,
Leather (heaG) Tanners ?"-and on the re-
maining side was picture representing an
american citizen of African descent" and
a mules daddy" This caricature was an
nouncCd as Grants first appearance in the
ring" and elected considerable attention
from all who saw it. After the Transparent
cy came the procession, each boy bearin z
aloft large pumpkin. scooped out and
properly dsfgured in which lighted can
die had been inserted. The procession moved
up and down Main street, and everybody
was cut to witness it. Some few stones
were thrown at the procession by boys of
opposite political faith. but no damage was
done.

YOUR COUNTRY LIS!
BY ANTONIO.

Ye men Of might, We men of lore,
Arise your country calls once more.
Heed now her summons, ere she falls
Young men and old, your country calls
She needs your help 10 hurl away
The tyrant's binding, deadening sway.
Her greatness, power, her very all.
Need help--arise and heed her call.
When tyrants seized our happy land,
And bound in chains her mi chty hand,
Their wish was then that she might fall.
Ye heroes, heed your coCntry's call
Ehey were the bravest and the best,
They stood the bloody battles test,
They risked for country lie and all
For these, my country, you may call.
In raging conflict bold and true,
Beneath the dear "Red, White and Blue"
Stood sons whom naught could then appal-
Aloud to these, my country, call
You fought, tried heroes, to maintain
You conquered nObly-did sustain
This tottering Union from fall
She totters now-then list her call
Arise arise the cause is Just
"In God alone we put our trust"
To save our Union, blessed and fair.

Dear Feenlan-The Democratic Club Of
this place was addressed, on last Saturday
evening, by Hon. Geo. Bull, of Philadelphia.
Mr. B. is an excellent speaker, and is dong
good service IN the cause of Democracy
His speech was listened to with the utmost
attention, and received with great applause.
After the conclusion Of his speech the meet
ing adjourned
Gov. Geary addressed Radical meeting
on the Public Square. on. the same-evening.
in a speech which was but the reiteratiOn of
the vile ISLANDERS and Misrepresentation of
the Radical press, and failed to excite any
enthusiasm. He was followed by Gen.
Pierce, who endeavored to raise the spirits OF
his hearers by telling some dirty anecdotes.
But all to no purpose. The crowd. which
was not large at best, gradually and percep-
tibly became thinner and.thinncr. and at the
close Of his speech few remained to give him
a parting cheer.
A hickory pole. 185 feet in length, was
raised at Conemaugh Station on Saturday
last There were several speeches made on
the occasion.
poor widow woman named Luckard
had a pocket book, containing upwards of
seventy dollars, stolen from her one day last
week No clue to the thief.
Work has been resumed on the inside of
the now Methodist church, and it VIII be
pushed forward rapidly to completion.
