Not a SicKles.

Dr. -a relative of Chief Justita *Taney, recently eloped with tlia wife df a Baptist deacon, from the village where they both resided, in Knox county, Ohio. They ware respectable people and worthy mem-, bers of society —‘both held high pbsitiohs in the same church. She left three little children, one a sweet babe of ten months old; he left four or five. The day before they eloped he took his wife, a gentle, blue ejyed, b'eautiful woman, and her b. be, on a visit to WifflW’B, ahd told 11M riot to CbtH’d back tilt 'the iiexl eVeHihjg; that hb Would take good care of the other children in her absence. When she came home he had been gone over fourteen hours, and the lonely little ones were all crying. When the dreadful intelligence came, she fell to the floor ■nd lay moaning and weeping in intensest agony, refusing to be comforted. It was the next night before a word of consolation which she would listen fell into her ear and heart. The bereft husband (compare him with the loving roue, Sickles) who idolized his wife,) pursued and overtook them in Monroe, Richland county, 0., where he found the erring w : fe prostrated with illness. T<e mercy of the humble Christian predominated in his heart. Without a word of cruel upbraiding, he staid arid nursed her back to life, then be talked with the Doctor and her, and reasoned with them, and promised to forgive all. and smooth the matter over, and hide the facts f-om the world. But with a sorrow too ■ deep for utterance did he learn that her heart was no longer his, that she loved another better than her own sweet babe and her kind husband. He took her hand in his and forgave her all—certified in writing that he gave hetj up on condition that she would ■marry the object of her choice as soon as possible, and he would never molest them. lie gave her $l6O and good advice, and wished the blessings of God to rest upon her, and then, bowing under his burden of grief, he returned to his poor motherless children, and desolate hearth.— Cleveland Herald. A Singular Sort of Appetite.—The Superintendent of the West Philadelphia Railroad exhibited to us the other day a horse whose hoofs the rats had gnawed until their teeth reached the quick. When lying down the rats had also gnawed the warts upon the inside of the horse’s legs. The rats are io savage in those parts that every morning some of the horses are taken out with feet bleeding from wounds inflicted by the ■nocturnal prowlers.— Phil. North American. (KrA correspondent of the New York •Express, who recently paid a visit to the Bank of England, says: “There was one iitem which I learned from the bank, decidedly g atifyif.g to my national pride. Not a single piece of American paper which laid over d"ring the lue panic now' remains unpaid. Tijis, says Mr. Elsey, the Governor, cannot brlsaid of any other nation on the earth.” i ’

SPECIAL NOTICES. Read JL'Uss. l»r. Mannj the discoverer and vender of that vrorld-renowncd medicine, Dr. Mann’s Ai;ue Balsam i« etill in the field, laboring for the good of the suffering. It is n]ow a settled fact, beyond a doubt, that the remedy is very far exceeding any thing of the kind ever before introduced, and we may well judge why it is io. Because the inventor has spared no expense ■or pains in thoroughly bringing into general notice, by meajns of the Preri, and the general efficacy f the medicine. Hence the result is that it now stands at the head of the list of all antidotes for all malarious diseases.

Single Tickets, S 5; Six Tickets, $25. To be Drawn at Cincinnati, Ohio, ON MONDAY, JANUARY 2 ? 1860. THE great favor with which my Grand Annual Gift Distribution, (drawn 25th December, 1838,3 was received, and the fact that I was unable at that time to supply near all the tickets that were desired, has determined me to prepare a scheme that surpasses in anything that has heretofore been attempted, and atfording better chances to the ticket holders to do well than could possibly be given in a scheme of less dimensions. All money received w’ill be deposited in bank by the projector, until after the drawing, and will be returned to the persons sending it, i; every thing does i not take place as advertised. Pers who desire, can deposit their money in sums of i : dollars and upwards with H. Duhmk <fc Co., a’ w cnown and responsible jewelry firm in this city, have consented to retain and take charge of all sums deposited with them until after the drawing. The total value of prizes to be distributed is One Hundred Thousand Dollars, and the number of prizes is Five Thousand, and the whole number of tickets being Twenty Thousand, there is consequently one chance in every four tickets. The drawing, as above stated, will take place on Monday, the 2d day of January, m a public hall in Cincinnati, and all the tick-et-holders who can possibly be present are earnestly requested to attend. The capital prize is the residence built and occupied by myself in Covington, Ky., opposite Cincinnati, (being the handsomest and best arranged dwelling in the city,) with grounds belonging thereto. It is fitted up with all- the modern appliances of bathroom, steam heating appliances, gas pipes throughout, with the machinery for manufacturing gas without trouble, and at a trifling expense. In fact, it combines everything most desirable in a residence; is situated on rising ground in the suburbs of Covington, commanding a beautiful view of both cities, and uniting the advantages of both town and country. The Farm of three hundred and twenty acres is beautifully located in Crawford county. Mo., in a region unsurpassed for health by any ill the Union, between the Iron Mountain and South-western Branch Kailroad, and but a lew’ miles distant from each. ’I he Carriage is one I had made expressly for my family use, of the best materials, and with the most substantial workmanship, and cannot be surpassed !by any in the Union. It has had about a month’s service—just enough to test its good qualities. The . horses are in accordance with the carriage, being I matches, spirited and docile, and beautifully made animals, and the harness is a set of the best silver- ' mounted that could be made. The price, (one thou- . sand dollars) at which this entire turn-out is put up, I is much less than it cost to me, and would be a bar--1 gain for cash. i 1 here are fifteen hundred prizes of American Gold , in the scheme, in sunis^ranging from five to one thousand dollars each, which speak for themselves. The three Buggies ami FLurses, with silver-mount-ed harness, worth four hundred dollars, are splendid prizes. The horses are*good, and the buggies from the establishment of I. & B. Bruce <fc Co., Cincinnati, one of the first manufacturers in the city. The four Pianos,.worth five hundred and four hunI died dollars each, have been selected by a competent judge irom the largest stock in-the West, and are pro nounced very superior. They are all of the make of Lighte, Newton Bradbury, of New’ York City, which are considered by competent judges to be the best now in use, and are put in the scheme at manufacturer’s prices. They can be seen at the store of C. M. Murch,74 West Fourth street, Cincinnati, O. There are twenty of Singer’s Sewing Machines, w hich arc acknowledged by all to be the best now in use. They are put in the scheme at the prices at which they are furnished by I. M. Singer <St Co. themselves, and range from seventy-five to one hundred and thirty one dollars each. The; e are twelve hundred Watches in the scheme, all hunting levers, and ranging in price from twenty dollars up to the Gold Chronometer Wath and Chain, worth two hundred dollars. The watches arc all put down at the lowest retail price. Besides the above there are a number of silver-plat-ed Tea Sets and other Silverware, handsome jewelry, etc. Programmes containing a full list of the prizes will be sent tAany one who may wish them. Agents and all persons desiring to act as such, are requested to order immediately w’hatever number of tickets they may wish, and be sure to say, ‘-For your Grand Annual Distribution-;”* otherwise, tickets might be sent in my regular Monthly Enterprise.

JOY AND GLADNESS HAH BEEN BBOUEH'F TO MANY HOMES AND FAMILIES, Since the introduction, of that World Renowned medicine, DR. MANN’S AGUE BALSAM, in the Western country, and especially the past season—it has brought health and happiness into moje families than any remedy upon record. The question W’ould naturally arise, why is this? Because it does, in all cases in the shortest time, arrest chills, fever and ague in its worst form, and in all cases performs a speedy cure. Persons residing in malarious districts using this Balsam occasionally during the sickly season, need have no fear of an attack of ague. It is therefore highly recommended as a sure preventative, if used in small doses daily during that particular time when this class of diseases prevail. For w ant of space we can only offer a few of the many evidences in its favor. Bucyrus, Ohio, Feb. 25, 1858. DR. MANN C0.,-Galion, Ohio—Gents', We are at a loss to find language sufficient to portray to the public the great esteem in which y-.-ur Celebrated Affue Balsam is held in this communi The fact is it never fails to cure ague in its worst ' ns, and we can sell nothing else. Yours, tec., HOLOBERT& TAILOR, Druggists. Corinth, Miss., Oct. 20, 1838. MESSRS’. S. K. MANN & CO.- Gents: Having procured a supply of your Ague Balsam, and testing it thoroughly in many severe cases of long standing, where all the popular remedies of the day had failed, I found, in all cases, your Balsam effected a safe and speedy cure. It is just the medicine we want here in the South. ' Respectfully Yours, JOSEPH BUCHANAN, Druggist. New York, Feb. 23, 1858. MESSRS S. K. MANN & CO.— Gents: I have at our house in St. Louis, sold your Ague. Balsam some three years, and have carefully observed its effects, and mnst in candor say, I do not believe it has an equal in the history of medicine; for, to my personal knowledge, it cures permanently every case, and 1 have know’n it used after all other remedies had failed, with the same happy result. I have no hesitation in pronouncing it the greatest discovery ever made in intermittent remedies, and a perfect triumph over chills, fever and ague. Respectfuly, PROF. O. J. WOOD. S. K.

I can also, by my heavy purchases of watches and jewelry, furnish dealers at lower rates than they can buy them from the manufacturers. Having such an advantage in buying, I can assure to my customers better gifts with their books than any other house, and can give to my agents a larger commission. A valuable gilt will be delivered with each book at the time of sale.' Gifts worth SSOO, at the loicest -wholesale prices, W’ill be impartially distributed with every SI,OOO worth of books sold.
