Another SWindla.

A short time ago a badly-posted resi-
dent Of this county sent on to some swim
ding watch concern in New York for a
number of watches, enclosing $3.50 as an
evidence Of good faith. On Monday last
he received a G. o, D. package by ex-
press, for which, before opening it, he had
to pay the agent $94 50. The package
was opened in the Express Office, but, as
a matter Of course, contained no watches.
Instead of the coveted timo-pieces, tn rec
or four pieces Of iron were found, snugly
packed in shayings, We understand the
victim made an effort to have the money
stopped in the hands of the Agent by
law, but was unsuccessful, as it was for
warded on Tuesday morning. All of our
readers who have any inclination to invest
in Yankee Tricks can find ample oppor-
t%unities for doing so, with about the same
result as above stated.

Moore's Rural New Yorker.

This is the very best Agricultural jour
nal in the country. Its Agricultural,
Horticultural and Mechanical Depart
ments are made up by the most expert
enoed editors to be found, and its corps of
contributors constitute the best improved
minds throughout the Union. To any
farmer it must prove invaluable, as a
source of information regarding his pur-
suit. At the same time it is a most well
come visitor to the family, as its Miscel-
l%aneOus and Domestic Departments en-
brace the choicest original and selected
articles. In a word we know of no paper
combining more of the qualities of a first
class Family and Agricultural journal
than the New Yorker. 1t is printed in
admirable style on the best paper, and
contains sixteen large pages weekly.

The New Year, with all its glittering
visions Of hope hat mantle in gems Of
beauty the rosy cheeks of health, fails to
gladden. the heart Of yonder pale, sickly
and delicate female Dark and gloomy
forebodings appear to settle upon her brow,
Her heart palpitates; her eyes are dim,
her intellect dull, her checks faded, and
her whole system writing with pain and
misery.
The use Of English Female Bitters will
relieve her of ali these troubles, and send
a thrill of joy and glow of health through,
out her frame, restoring her in health and
beauty, to the warm embraces Of family
and friends. nOv3-45

think of no word more expressive Of our
admiration than that invariably used by

quack and humbug. know it is gener-
ally considered, and especially in the
medical department, that the more they
advertise the greater the humbug, and
this, to a great extent, is but too true;
but in his case there is an exception.
All in this vicinity know that | visited
his institution last year for treatment,
and as you all knew my condition it is
not necessary for MT to recapitulate.
When | arrived there he gave me a thor
ough examination and then told me what
he thought of my case. and that if | would
remain there he could treat my case sue
cossfully, but was unwilling to take it if
| remained here; as he felt that his repu-
tation was at stake, and if | died it might
injure him greatly. insisted that he
should treat my case the best he could,
at the same time telling him that if | died
he should not suffer at my hands. He
told me it would be necessary for me to
see him or some other skilled physician.
Accordingly, when | was East this Fall l
was examined thoroughly. My lungs
were pronounced in a healthy condition;
the upper part of the bronchialtube SEEM
ed to be affected, which the physician at
tributed to the condition of my throat, and
remarked that | was doing exceedingly
well. Since my return my disease has
