M UELLER'S PATENT CHAIN
OVERSHOT THRASHERS, FEED
CUTT ERS, ic.
The above cut represents a single or one
horse machine with the hands necessary to
attend it.
The subscribers lake Ibis method of in
forming the public in general, that they have
for some time been carrying on, in all their
various branches, the manulactutc and sale
of Wheeler's Patent Chain Horse Powers,
together with Overshot Thrashers, Feed Cut
ters, Revolving Horse Rakes, lite., in Light
Street, Columbia co., and the town of North
umberland, Northumberland co., Pa.
Tlic Horse-Powers
are strong arid durable, and very simple in
their construction: run light, and ate not
liable lo gel out of order.- With a slight ele
vation, tho weight alone of the horse or
horses drives the Thrasher with force and
speed. They may also ho used for various
other purposes, such a driving Circular Saws,
Turning Lathes. Boring Machines, Grind-
Stones. Churns, etc. etc.
The Overshot Machines
have several advantages over the machines
now in use. The apton or feeding table is
level, and of a proper height to allow the
feeder lo stand erect, and feed evenly and
easily without annoyance from du6l; sticks
Bnd stone arc not liable to gel into the
thrasher, and the grain is not scattered, but
thrown dowi "V the separator. The two
horso machine,' attended by from two lo
three hpuds, will thrash Irom 100 to 150
bushels of wheat, or double the amount of
oats per day. The one horse machine, at
tended by two or three hands, will thrash
from 50 to 75 bushels ol wheat, or double
the amount of oats per day. The Feed-
Cutler is a first rato article, and is very much
used. It cuts fine and very fast; stalks are
cut by it 3-8 of an inch long, at he rale
of Worn 300 to 500 sheaves per day.
The foregoing is a brief statement of the
qualities and character of our machines.—
There probably is a larger number ol
Wheeler's Patent Powers made and sold
fhan any other kind. We offer our ma
chinos to the farming cotnmuni'y with full
confidence In their merits, and invite all in
terested to call and examine them before
purchasing elsewhere.
For further particiflars, or for purpose of
ordering machines, address the subscribers
at Light Street, Columbia co , or at North
umberland, North'd county, Pa., or apply to
the following agents:—Jacob Hurtman, Mil

Children ara delighted to study Geography
by this sy®:eo. Tliey iusxi eo rapidly end
receive such clear impressions ol (tie subject,
that it is a pleasure to both teaclmr and pu
pil to be engaged in it. We all know that a
better and more lasting idea of a locality is
obtained by looking at a bold and distinct
drawing of it, than by volumes of descrip
tion. If a man wants to get an exact idea
of a farm he has been purchasing, he learns
more by one iook at the draft on the hack of
the deed, than by reading the description in
side twenty limes. This is the great princi
ple ol l'eltoii's system of Geography, and
there are oihers equally practical combined
with it which entitle it In the reputation it
sustains, as the best and quickest mode oi
teaching Geography, vet introduced.
PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY—including ali
the invaluable discoveries in this science, ol

and remained there until the fire was out. —
The sale was then removed, and oppened in
the presence oi at least 1000 persons, who
witnessed the good condition ol the contents.
Will you please have the Safe and looks re
paired, as we intend to put it in use again,
having perfect confidence in its fire proof
qualities. Yours, respectfully,
LACEY & PHILLIPS.

TimiCS WON'T io.
FIIHEY never did do more than give tempo
rary relief and they never will. It is be
cause they don't touch the cause of the dis
ease. The cause of all ague and billious dis
eases is the atmospheric poison called Mias
ma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by
its
NATURAL ANTIDOTE,
and all diseases caused by it disappears at
once. Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure is this
Antidrila lo Malaria, and moreover it is a
perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate
of the celebrated chemist, J. R. Chilton, of
Now York, to this cfTect, is attached to every
bottle; therefore if it does no good it cur. do
no harm.
This is more than can be said of Quinine,
Arsenic, or any lonic in existence, as their
use is ruinous to the constitution and brings
on DUM B AGUE, which never allows a per
son to feel perfectly well tor a single moment.
In illustration of these truths I annex some
extracts from a letter just received from a
l'hvbician:
Georgetown, Ohio, March 17, '56.
JAS. A. RHODES, Esq.—Dear Sir: Yours ol
2d iust. is ai hand. The Cure arrived late
last year and ths difficulty in getting any one
to try it was greatly increased from the fact
that a remedy had been introduced which
was growing in favor with the public, as be
ing bolter than using Quinine, —not knowing
1 presume thai the remedy they needed to
escape taking Quinine, contuined tho DRUG
ITSELF!
This remedy, (kncw-i as "Smith's Tonic,")
would invariably BREAK an agtto, but it did
not CURE it, and it would often return with
renewed vigor. The one circumstance I
deemed in your favor, if I could institute a
lest comparison between it and your CURE.
The lollowing is the result:
Three persons took your "Cure," all of
which were esses of "Quotidian Intermit
tent Fever," ol many weeks standing. They
had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa
sionally missing n chill, but it was, (as in all
such cases,; slowly wearing thorn out, and
laying the Inundation of other and severer
maladies. I did succeed in effecting a radi
cal euro of all threb of these cases with your
remedy, and they have not had a chill since.
In all three of those eases the "Smith's Ton
ic" had heen used, and would, as before sta
ted, break the chill, but after a period or two
had elapsed il would return.
1 think lime will he no difficulty now in
giving to your "Cure" the vantage ground of
any other remedy now in use here, &e. &c.
WILLIAM ISUCKNER, M. D.
RHODES' FEVER and AGUE CURE, or
Antiilolc to Malaria, the only harmless reme
dy in existence, is equally certain as a PRE
VKNTTVE, as a "CURE." Take it when
yon feel the chill coming on, and jou will
never have a single one.

THK Author of the above volume is a gradu
ate of one or tin. first medical schools in the
United States, and having devoted a quarter of
a century lo the study and treatment of Syphilis
and kindred disorders as a speciality, he has
become possessed of most invaluable inform!-
lion in regard to the some, and is able to com
pass into vadc mccum compass the very quint
essence of medical science on this important
subject; as the result of the experience of Ihe
'most eminent physician in Europe and Amer
ica is thorouahly demonstrated in his own
highly successful practice in the treatment of
se.rtt diseases in many thousands of cares in
I the Uily of Philadelphia olono.
' The iracticeof Dr. Hunter has long boen,
and still is literally unbounded, but at (he ear
nest solicitation of numerous persons, he hus
been induced to extend the sphere of his pro
fessional usefulness to the community at larga,
through the medium of his "Mcdt ul Manual
Hand-fJook for the Afllic'cd.'' j-J;
H is a volume that should bo in tbo hand of
every family in the land, whether used as a
[.ret entive of Ferret v;cc, or sf g guide for the
alleviation of one of the moaf awful and de
structive scourges t)u visited upon mankind
for the sins of sensuality and impurity of every
kl d.
It is n volume that has received the unquali
fied recommendation of the first physicians in
the land, while many clergymen, fathers, moth
ore, | hilanthropists and humanitarians, have
most freely extended its circulation in all quar
ters where its powerful teachings would be like
ly to bo instrumental in tho moral purification
and phvsi'al healing of multitude! of our peo
ple, ninong the ynuug, volatile and indiscreet,
otherwise tho prido and flower of the nation.
The authoi argues particularly, most strongly
against every species of self-defilement, and
warns parents and guatdians, in scotching
terms, to gunid the young of both sexes from
i the terriblo consequences concomitant of tbeir
ignorance of phy'ologicol laws and sexual imd
purities and irregularities, whether exbihilo
ny precocious development or arising fiom the
viscious and corrupting examples of their school,
mates or otheiwise. To those who have lieo.i
already ensnared to Ihe "paths that take hold
on hell,'' a clear and explicit way is shown by
which they muy secure a teturn of sound health
and a regeneration of the soul from its terrible
pollution.
It is well known that thousanJs of victims
are annually sacrificed at the shrtn of Quack
ery —especially those auffoiing frotn Venereal or
Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weak
ness, Netvous Debility, and Ihe numerous mal
adies which spring directly or less remotely
from the indulgence of carnal pussious and se
cret viohlions of Nature.

PHILADELPHIA MEDICAL HOUSE—
Established 20 years ago by Dr. XINKKLIN,
corner of Third and Union streets, between
Spruce and Pine, Philadelphia, Pa.
INVALIDS
Are apprised that Dr. KINKELIN confines
his practice to a particular branch of medi
cine, which engages hit individual attention.
He cautions the unfortunate against the a
buse of mercury; thousands are annually
mercurialized out of life. Rocenl a fleet ions
are piomplly extinguished.
TWENTY YEARS'EXPERIENCE
In the treatment of a class of diseases hilb
erto neglected and imperfectly understood,
has enabled Dr. KINKELIN, Author of •
work on Self Preservation, to prove hat nine
tenths of the causes of nervous debility, lo
cal and constitutional weaknesajmenlal and
physical suffering, are tracoabll to certain
habits, forming the most secret yet deadly
and fatal springe of domestiQ misery and
premature mortality.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE,
on evil habit sometimes indulged
in by bgys in solitude, and which, if not re
formed in due time, not only hegels serious
obstacles to matrimonial happiness,but gives
rise to a series of protracted, insidious, and
devastating afflictions. Few ol those who
give way to this pernicious practico are a
ware ol the consequences, until they find
the nervous aystem shattered, feel strange
and unaccountable feelings, and vague fears
in tbe mind.
The unfortunate thus affeoted bocomes fee
ble, is unable to labor with accustomed vig
or, or to apply his mind to study; his step is
tardy and weak, he is dull, irresolute, and
engages in his sport with less energy than
usual.
If he emancif ato himself before the prac
tice lias done its worst, and enter matrimony,
his marriage is unfroiifnl, and hw sense tells
him it)at tliig is caused by his early follies.—
These are considerations which should itvt
| ken the attention of those similarly situated.
MARRIAGE
Requires the fulfillment of several conditions
in order that it may he really the cause jof
mutual happiness. Could the veil which
covers the origin of domestic wretchedness
be raised, and its true source in every in
stance disclosed —in how many could it b
traced to physical disqualifications and their
attendant disappointments! Apply then while
it is yet time, in order to have yoor unstrung
and relaxed organization rebraoed, revivified
und strengthened. _
REMEMBER,
He who places himself under Or. Kirikelln's
treatment may religiously confide in his hon
or as a genteman, and rely upon the assur
ance, that the secrets of Dr. K's patients will
never be disclosed.
Young man—let no false mndeety deter
you from making your case Known to one
who, from education and respectability, can
befriend you.
Too many think they will conceal the se
cret in their own hearts, and cure themia Ives
Atas ! how often Is this a fatal delusion, and
how many a promising young man, who
might have boen an ornament to society, has
faded from the earth.
S'riclnres of the urethra are rapidly re
moved by the application of a new thera
peutical agonl, used onlv by Dr. K. Weak
ness and Constitutional Debility promptly
cured, and full vigor restored,
"/ am a man and deem nothing tohiih
relates to man foreign to my feelings."

The only Safe which, in every instance*,
preserved the entire contents at
the late Extensive Fire s.
AT THE BURNING OF THE ARTIZAN
BUILDJNGS, Aptil 10th,and in thegreat
fire in Market Street, May Ist, 1856, the gen
uine HERRING SAFE preserved the Jewelry of
George W. Simms & Bro.; Books, Papers &o.
of Fisher & Bro. and Edward Semans & Co.,
after remaining exposed in the burning ruin*
for nearly Forty Hours, and proving conclu
sively what we have always claimed for
them, their great superioiity over all securi
ties known.
In these fires, the HERRING'S SAFE,
standing Bide by side with those advertised
as "warranted to stand 10 per cent, more fire
than Herring's," came forth the acknowledge'
ed victor, not only preserving their contents
in excellent order, but being themselves ia a
condition to go through another ordeal, while
the boasted "Salamanders" of othe) raakUrs
were badly used op in every instfnee, and
iu somecasostheir entire contents completely
destroyed.
To the public we would simply say, that,
during the fourteen years of the Herring's
Said has been before them, more than two
hundred hnve passed through accidental fires
without the occuirunce of a single loss.
We would, therefore, caution purohasem
against the misrepresentation of interested
parlies. The Herring's Patent is the only
Fire-proof Safe made in this city which is
protected by a Patent Right, aocl we will
guarantee it to resist more than double the
amount of heat of any other Safe now known
