HOOEIAXD's GERMAN TONIC.

Was compounded for those not inclined to cx-
trcrlc bittcrs, and is intended for use in cases
when some alcoholic stmulant is required in CO y
rcction with the tonic properties of the Bittcrs.
Each bottle of the Tonic contains one bottle of
the Bittcrs, combined with PURGE SANTA CRUZ
RUM, and favored in such manner that the cX-
trcme bitterness of the bttcrs is overcome, form
ing preparation highly agreeable and pleasant
to the palate, and containing the medicinal vir-
tues Of the Bittcrs The price of the Tonic is 81.
50 per Bottle, which many persons think too
high. They must take into consideration that
the Stimulant used is guaranteed to be of pure
quality. i poor article could be furnished at q
cheaper price, but is it not better to pay little
more and have a good articlci medicinal pre-
puration should contain none but the best ingrc-
dicnts and they who expect to obtain cheap
compound, and be benefited By it will most GER
toinly be cheated.

The FOURTH OF JULY.-There appears to be
desire, on the part Of many OF our citizens, to
have an old-fashioned celebration on the 4th of
july, In this place, yet no steps have been taken
towards accomplishing this end. We would
suggest, in order to get starting point, so that
preliminary arrangements can be made, that the
Chief Burgess request, by public call made
through the papers, all societies, associations,
organizations, the different branches of trades
and professions, be represented by two delegates
each in meeting to be held at IN early day. to
decide upon centennial celebration of the Bo-
rough of Sunbury, and to perfect arrangements.
The original plot of the Borough of Sunbury was
laid out in June and July, 17T2, inst one hun
drcd years ago. We believe that liberal contrib
utions can be procured towards grand ccnten-
NAL celebration on the 4th Of July. If this
matter Is taken hold of Mt once, we can get up
n demonstration that viii be n credit TO our
town and worthy Of ''the day we celebrate"
We hope our borough fathers will favor the
movement and aid In furthering the arrange
mcnts. Publish It broadcast throughout the
adjoining counties by flowing posters that there
is going to be grand demonstration and ccntcn-
NAL celebration in Sunbury, Oh the 9Th OF July,
and addresses will be delivered by eminent speak
crs from abroad, and, our word for it, the town
will be packed with strangers, who will neces-
sary, leave some Of their spare change behind.
We are in favor Of celebrating, and we feel
confident that no more fitting time 10 have u
larger celebration in this place than was ever
held before, Is presented anywhere. We there
