The Father finally Outwitted.?The loving cou
ple who lied from Virgiuia to this place a few
weeks ago for the purpose of being united in
the bonds of matrimony, and were defeated
through the vigilance of the opposing father,
arranged their plans so well that last night they
succeeded in consummating their designs. It
seems that a company of young persons were
enjoying themselves in a social party at the
house of the young lady's father, (where she
had been kept confined t6 her room ever since
the first attempt,) and during a play that was
going on, she ran out of the house. A certain
doctor was waiting outside with a carriage, into
whieh the party jumped, and were conveyed
down the turnpike in double quick time. The
license being in readiness, they were married
by one of our preachers this morning about
three o'clock. The father reached our town
about eight o'clock; and as his carriage passed
down Bridge street, the bride, who was sitting
at a window, modestly remarked, ? There goes
pa, but I am married !"

ES8ENCE OF COFFEE.
With 12J Cent* to tavefour Pound* of Coffee I
rpma ESSENCE has been proved by many thousands |
X of tho richest and most respectable families, as well
as by the poorer class of jKiople, almost through the whole
United States, to be by far the best preparation of Coffee
ever offered to the public. Coffee made by this Essence
is much more wholesome, more delicate, fine-flavored,
perfectly clear, and, in every instance, superior to the
finest Java coffee.
In order to give full satisfaction and proof that the
above article is perfectly healthy, and to show something
of the deserved reputation it has gained and justly enti
tled to, we annex a few certificates and recommendation*,
particularly relating to health, from Dr. Booth and Dr.
Chilton, practical Chemist* and Analvsist* of the cities of |
Philadelphia and New York ; also, from our Agent*, all
of whom an* prominent Chemists and Druggists.

I have examined the Essence of Coffee manufactured

TRY IT AND BE CURED.?WONDERFUL AND PER
MANENT CURE OK DYSPEPSIA.
Baltimore, Sept. 13,1851.
Messrs. Mortimer <t Mowbray?Gentlemen: This is to
certify that in tho year 1843 1 was attacked with a ner
vous affection, In consequence of Dyspepsia or Indiges
tion, which continued somo eighteen months, during
which time my sufferings were intense, both of body and
nilnd. I tried every thing 1 could think or hear of, (as
there was much sympathy for me,) and at length all ef
forts failed to cure mo. I became much weakened, and
could walk but a very short distance at a time, and was
often in tho act of falling upon the pavement, (I would
stop in somo door or alley to prevent it,) in consequence
of frequent palpitations; and, from what I could learn,
I supposed I had disease of the heart, from frequent dis
tressing pains about the same; as also my chest aud ab
domen?the latter being much distended. At this stage
of my disorder I could neither eat, sleep or walk with any
satisfaction to myself. Life seemed to be a burden to
me. My feelings were gloomy beyond description.
I at length heard of Dr. Hampton's Vegetable Tincture,
and made trial of It 1 had but taken Vie first dose when
I felt a change for the hotter, and hope Immediately
sprang up. I continued, with the use of this invaluable
Tincture, U> imjtrove daily, until I had taken the contents
of three bottles, which, under Divine Providence, made a
perfect cure of me. , .
I found I had an excellent appetite, and could partake
of any food, which I could not do for years previously
without the most distressing sensations. I now enjoy
uninterrupted good health, aud have done so for the last
six years; and would say to all alMicted as I have been,
to cast aside your prejudices, and try Hampton's Vegetable
Tincture. Any inlormation beside this but meagre de
scription of my case will be given cheerfully for the bene
fit of the afflicted. Yours, WILLIAM M.OLDIIAM,
Custom-Uouse; dwelling, Fayette et., near 1? remont.
SUCH A MASS OK HOME TESTIMONY MUST CARRY
CONVICTION TO EVERY MIND.
Baltimore, Sep. 18,1851.
Messrs. Mortimer it Mowbray?tientlemen: The cure of |
Mr. Robert (lault, by the use of throe bottles of Hamp
ton's Vegetable Tincture, as per his certificate, is, 1 think,
almost unprecedented. His case of extremely excruciating
suffering, from Chronic Inflammatory Rheumatism, came
immediately under my own observation, through the last
four years, which I considered entirely hopeless. Through
my earnest persuasion, he was induced to try your inval
uable Tincture. I was prompted to remark at the time,
that if medicine would cure Mr. Gault, it certainly would
" remove mountains." The knowledge of this miraculous
cure compels me to consider It a duty I owe to the afflicted
(and particularly to those with complaints like his) to
make generally known the healing power of tin* Willy
wonderful medicine. YourSjaME3T'P m'eKK1TT,
