TRAVELLING HUMBUGs.-The pleasant weather
has put the tinerant nostrum vcnders on tie
move. 1t is somewhat astonishing that people
will persist in patronizng these adventurers
when we have reliable stores, where genuine
goods can be bought of our own citizens who pay
rent and taxes and are thus assisted in building
up and advancing the general prosperity. Every
dollar spent with these peripatetc loafers is just
SO much money drawn from our midst to the de-
triment of our storckecpcrs. We advise our citi-
zens to patronise our town business people, and
let these candle light and coal oil peldlcrs 'alone
severely. ."-ErchGnge.

drowning-more murders and above all, more
deaths by lightning than we have ever known to

On Tuesday evening last, Gen. K1LPATRIcK ar
rived in this place on his way from Freeburg,
Snyder county, to New York, and rs no trains
left in the evening, many of citizens desiring
to hear him speak, prevailed upon him to address
a meeting In the Court House. Byseven O'Clock
the Court House was pretty well filled, when on
motion, Abraham Blasser was chosen President,
and w. d. Todd, and A. N. Brce, Esqrs., as Sc
cretaries. committee composed of Messrs. E.
Wilvert, Col. Geo. Wagenseller and j. X. Da-
Wis, was appointed to wait upon the General; and
invite him to address the meeting. The commit
tee after a short time returned with Gen. Kilpat-
rick, and introduced him to the audience. ...
The General said that he had come to talk of
National affairs, that to interfere in local politics
would be impertinent in him as stranger. He
referred to the sacredness of tho Constitution,
but said 1t required amendments to keep pace
with modern times, and to abolish slavery, which
now gives us 100000 of freemen instead of
slaves. Parties should be examined by their pro-
fcssiens, history and present attitude. The De-
mocratic p rty has professions, but no princl-
pies. He referred to Vallandigham's new depar-
ture, and asked what Democrats would think had
Breckenridge been elected President. He then
pictured the Democratic record of the past, hnd
compared it with the present attitude.
His speech was listened to with the most pro-
found attention, and was well received by the au-
diencc.

ONE MILLION OF LIVES sAVEDi /

II is one of the remarkable facts of this re-
markablc age, not merely that so many persons
are the victims of dyspepsia or indigestion, but
its willing victims. Now, we would not be un-
derstood to say that any one regards dyspepsia
with favor, or feels disposed to rank it among
the Injuries of life. Far from it. Those who
have eXperinced its torments would scout such
an idea. All dread it, and would gladly dispense
with its unpleasant familiarties, Mark Tapley,
who was jolly under all the trying circumstances
in which he was placed, never had an attack of
dyspepsia, or his ollity would have speedily for
saken him. Men and women sometimes suffer
Its tortures uncomplainingly, but whoever heard

Ofall the mutifarious diseases to which the
human system is liable, there is perhaps no one
SO generally prevalent as dyspepsia. There are
diseases more acute and painful, and which
more frequently prove fatal but none, the effects
of which are so depressing to the mind and so
positively distressing to the body. If there is a
wretched being in the world it is
A CONFIRMED DYSPEPTIC.

REMARKS.

The whole number of cattle for the week end

before, and of sheep 72l9 or 1000 less than last

bids Tor the best quality OF stabilized animals,
whether from the river or elsewhere, are under

and affords small encouragement TO feeders, one
of whom informed us that ASIDE from manure be
could not figure his corn feed 10 cattle at much

prices. This may afford crumb of comfort TO
the city and village consumer who regards the
price he pays for beef as extortionate. Geo. w.

The Montreal express train which was
to have left New York last night at IL
o'clock left thirty-five minutes behind
time. On reaching the bridge at Spuyten
Duyvil creek the engineer slowed down,
when the Yonkers train which was be-
hind, came laundering around the curve
at full speed. A collision took place,
which almost totally demolished one car
and smashed the platforms Of several
others. The engineer of the Yonkers
train jumped off, and the conductor was
thrown down the embankment, while
several passengers were thrown from their
hunks and severely injured. The passen-
gers describe the collision and its effects
as terrible, and wonder that many lives
were not lost.
