Messrs Mortimer & Mowbray—Gents: We have again to send an order for more of your truly won derful Hampton's Vegetable Tincture Since it was first tried it has sold without an effort, and we have uot seen the first person who has not been greatly benefitted by its use. A gentleman of our neigh borhood was induced to try the 'Tincture' for a vio lent palpitation of the heart. He had suffered so much fr_>m it that he said he had prayed fur death. He had taken but three d«ses when he assured us he would not take five hundred dollars for the ben efit he had derived, and that he should never cease to remember us with gratitude for calling his at tention to so valuable a medicine.

Messrs Mortimer & Mowbray—Gentlemen : It is with real pleasure tint I am able to attest to the gen eral healing and curative powers ot Dr Hampton's VegetaDle Tincture. Sometime during last Novem ber I was taken wi'h a very bad and serious cough. I was advised to take Cod-Liver Oil, and did so; but getting no better, I was induced to try your Tincture. 1 got one bottle, and before I had usod it all, my eough left me. Permit me also to state that, lor the last fifteen years, 1 have suffered very much from Acute Rheumatism and Vertigo, con fining me at times to my bed. lam fully convinc ed that 1 owe my present good health to the u«e oi the Tincture, and a kind Providence. You are, my friend*, at liberty to use this as you may think proper; and believe me, yours, very respectfully, G DUNAN. N. b.—l can be seen at any time at the Mayor* office. G. D. Curt of Cough, Consumption, great Dtbility. Haltimohk, July 6, 18J2. Messrs Mortimer & Mowbray—Gents: Last Sep tember 1 was attacked with erysipelas, trom which • dreadlul ulcer tormed on my right leg. Getting better of this, lsstNovtmber 1 took a deep cold, which .ed to what my physician told me was bil ious pleurisy, which leit me with a constant, deep ly-seated, and painful cough, having no rest day or night, and constantly throwing up from my lung* a thick matter. I btcauie much emaciated, grow ing weaker every day, and keeping my bed the greater part of the time. My tiiends thought 1 had the consumption, and at times I was also of the same opinion. At this stage of my disease,alter hav ing tried many and various remedies, without suc cess a friend advised me to try Or HampUm'sVeget able Tincture, and 1 procured me a bottle, which I now pronounce the greatest medicine I ever took. Before I bad taken hair the contents of one bottle, 1 felt much improved; and now, having taken but two bottles, my cough and pains have entirely left me, ana lam enabled to attend to business. I can truly say that, with th • blessing of God, I have been restored to the health 1 now enjoy by the use of this most invaluable medicine. Yours, WESLEY ROCK, Schroeder,|near Saratoga street.

A conversation bad just taken place George and his employer, relative t»an crease in bie salary, and had resulted in a refu sal to enlarge bis compensation. *lt was bard times,' Mr. Hale remarked,'and be really could not afford it.' George's salary had always been sufficient to meet bis demand*, but be was to be married soon, and be needed funds to defray bis wed ding expenses. George, w« regret to say, was somewhat nddicted to the wi&e cup, and was under its in fluence when he made the above threat. He was not fairly intoxicated, but was rather ,IK * e * c ' ,e d- A companion entered. Why, George,' said he, 'what is the matter? * ou look desperate—what is to pay?" .'Every thing to be paid, and nothing to pay •Come, come, you must look on the bright side of the picture.' 'No moralizing, Joe—l must bare money.' 'Invent a patent pill, or a rotary churn. 'Pshaw! don't tantalize me.' 'Has Mr. Hale reduced your salary?' 'No—don't talk to me now!' George now tried to think of a plan whereby to obtain the requisite funds, and be lay awake the greater part of that night, in contriving a scheme to defraud his employer. As he went to the store next morning, he called at the post office to get his employer's letters and papers, as was his custom. One letter was heavily and carefully enveloped, and George knew it contained money. 'Aha !'be said to himself, 'here is what 1 want.' Turning off into an obscure street, he open ed the package. It conta : ned one thousand dollars, which George transferred to his pock et book. A latter from his father, which be had not before observed, was now read. It was full ot solicitude for his welfare. It warned him to shun all vice, and to walk in the paths of vir tue and piety. It said—'Every morning at eight o'clock, we assemble round the family altar, and always remember you, my dear son !' Just then he heard a clock strike eight.— A strange feeling parsed over him. The struggle commenced between conscience and vice, and we are sorry to say that tbe latter prevailed. 'Did the money from Baltimore come this morning V inquired Mr. Hale, as George en tered the store. 'No, sir,' was the reply. 'O, dear, what shall 1 do? It was promised to-day, at the latest, and I wanted that thou* sand lo pay a note.' '1 have a friend,' said Geerge, 'from whom I can borrow five hundred dollars for you, if vou wish it-' 'Do so, if you please,' snid Mr. Hale. The next day came, but five hundred dol lars were still wauted, and could not be ob tained. The uote was protested. Creditors became alarmed. 'I suspected it,'said one. 'And just laid in a new stock, too,' said another. The first step down hill had been taken,and it was with difficulty that Mr. Hale regained his former position. »•»###»## Mr. Hale wrote to the Baltimore post-mas ter, and the nest day brought hiin his letters, one from the person from whom he had expect ed the remittance, and one from the post-mas ter. From these he learned that the letter bad been mailed a few days previous. Mr. Hale went to the postmnter in his own city, and laid tha matter before him. 'There ia some foul play here,' said be. 'Let me look at the mail-bills,' said the official. Me found, on reference, that the letter had reached his office, but none of the clerks knew what had become of it. The impression was that it had been placed in the wrong box. The uewa spread through the city, and many re marks not very flattering to the postmaster were occasioned. During these scenes of anxiety, was married, and made a bridal tour to the Falls.— The first emotions of fancied bliss destroyed the bitter remembrance of his wicked deed, but conscience only invigorated herself by this silence and suspension, and now tortured bim the more as he was returning to the city. A gloom came over his spirits, and his pleasure was turned into pain. When within fifty miles of home, while stop ping at L———, he enclosed two hundred and fifty dollars more of the stolen funds in a let ter, and directed it, in a disguised hand, '.o Mr. Hale. This letter he handed to a boy, and gave him a dollar to entry it to a post office about eight miles distant. The next day George returned to the store, and found that Mr. Hale had received two hun dred and fifty dollar? of the stolen money. 'Why,' said the astonished merchaat. ' it's f rom c f too, and not u word of explanation. I wish I knew that writing.' The intelligence soon spread through the city, and it was now fully believed that through carelessness it had Leeii put into another per son's letter box. A plan for detection was formed, and they determined to closely watch all letters, and, it possible, discover the writer. At length a let ter arrived, the direction of which very much resembled the one addressed to Mr. Hale. A warrant was issued, and the writer arrested and brought to the city. They also brought with them a boy, who stated that a gentleman had given bim a dollar to take a letter to the C post office, and that the letter was ad dressed to Mr. Hale. He had given the police a full description of bis person, &c., and they were eoing to make search for him. George beard of these facta, and hastened home, teiling his wife that be must fly. She ureed an explanation, but after a hurried em brace, he left her and fled—no one kuew wbi« i her. _ _ , # , It was fifteen years the sudden and jet unaipUioed Mm. Harmon re. moved to the far Wat to lire w.th her uncle. H<n she became acquainted with a Mr. Uay. He was a man of slnmi 34 or 40 years, and il was strange that one who had such an «PP*~ rent distaste for societv, should linger in her presence as be did. He was much respected, and Mrs. Harmon, who believed her former husband dead, reciprocated his feelings. She yielded her hand to Mr. Day, and finally be ■cause his wife. One evening Mr. Day ealled her aside, and intimated to ber that be bad a secrelto disclose to her. Showing her a ring, tie said— •Do you know this V ■she turned pale, atui feinted on bw boaotn.— | It was the one she bod given to ber former husband.

It was amusing to witnsss the artful ness of the lair maidens—how swiftly they would flee before an ill-favored visage, like tho timid fawn before the hunter's hound, while if some Adonic countenance pursued, the lair captive seemed suddenly deprived ofjter ve» locity. The ladies appeared to like the sport pro di gious-ly. Horse Burnt on th* Cars.—An Escape. A singular and most novel accident occurred on the cars going East of this place a tew days since, of wl.ich we have just heard the particular. Mr. Robert Lay, who resides near V lenna. was taking a beautiful and favorite horse of his own to the State Fair of New .!■ '™ d w " ln ,he ** r wi,h ,b « animal him* , Ihe train was in motion, and the doors closed from the outside, when he discovered 1 fire in (he forward part of the car among the straw. Almost instantly it was in a blazer- He tried to extinguish it, but failing, he at tempted in vain to open the door. At last ha succeeded, but the train being under full head way he dare not leap. He remained on it until badly burnt, when he jumped off, and narrowly escaped with his life, no bones being broken. Before the fire was discovered tho car was nearly destroyed, and the noble hors« suffocated or burnt to death. Mr. Lay has suC« fered much from his burns, but his life was most providentially preserved under these moat critical, yet novel circumstances.—Geneva Courier. Ordination of Missionaries.—Rev. Dan iel Whitiaker, a recent graduate of the Ro chester University, was ordained a few week* ago as a missionary to Burmah. Mr. Whit taker was recently married to a daughter of the Rev. Cephas Bennett, missionary at Ta voy. Miss B. was born in Burmah, bat re ceived ber education in this country, and now returns to Asia to assume the duties of mie> sionary life. Rev. Mr. Nesbit was also ordained as a missionary to Durmah on the Sunday evening previous. He is to sail in a few daye Irom Boston, accompanied by about twenty other missionaries of the Baptist Board, bound fur foreign stations. Mr. Whiltaker goes in about two months. Mr. Sherrier, another of the same class, destined as a missionary to Africa, is yet to be ordained. A Colporteur, in North Carolina, baa remar kable success in working off booka among those that use them. One poor family sola eggs enough, at five cents a dozen, to bay ft Bible, and a good selection of other books. A man who could not read, but waa blessed with a good wife who wanted books, waa at the trouble of polling up a few corda of wood and burning it to coal, for which be received fear cents per bushel, and thua procured the meaos of supplying her with a library. And now when the labors of the day are ended, he take* care of the baby while hia wife reada aloud.— Such are some of the reaulta of a good work. Singular Recovery of Moiftr.—Tho Booasboro (Md.) Odd Fellow states that one day last week Mr. Elias Davis, of that place, received q, letter from a Catholic priest of Pitta burg, Pa., enclosing the aum of $36 with a note informing him that it is an amount of money received of a certain persou who re cently confessed before him thai it waa money wrongfully obtained from Mr. Davis, while a memtier of the firm of fieniz, Davis & Co., sixteen years ago. Who the individual may be, and now he obtained the money, is unknown to Mr. Davis. The Elizabethtown (Ky.J Register of the 7th says: "The hesltb of Hon. Ben. Har din is rapidly declining, and no hopea are en teitained of his recovery. The news of bis death may soon be expected. We understand that lie has made a profession of religion, has become a member of tne Methodist Church, and expresses a willingness to leave the shores of mortal life." , Horrible.—Some weeks ago a Mra. Mey« ers near Albion, la., turned her children oat of the house, and with an axe undertook to chop open her own head. The children alaim« ed the neighbors, who found the unfortunate woman weltering in her blood—the scalp, and outer table of the skull, waa literally chopped to pieces! She had inflicted more than fifty ghastly wounds upon her bead, and yet Strang* ' as it may seem, none ol the blowa had pene* trated to the brain.
