of the beet material, ever offered in this market. The stove to which we invite most especial attention is the justly celebrated KESOR DOUBLE OVEN COOK STOVE. Which is decidedly superior to any stove ever invented. Whyf Because the heatnas the shortest space to both oven and the whole width of the stove at once around the ovens: and will bake at once and equal in both, and by having two distinct and separate ovens in the same move, different artides can be baked at the same time which could not bo done in a single oven: which tends to great economy in fuel, aou at the same time alt other culinary operations can be performed as well as on any other stove.

Will please read the following statement from the Harrison Gasette.

THE

incredulous arc invited to read the following note from the Rev. Mr. Coldron, whose character for truth and veracity stands above suspicion, and have their doubts dispelled as to the superiority of WISTAR'S JBALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, over all remedies now before tho public of the same character.

COKYDON, Ind. Jan. 38,1848.

It is no less a duty than a pleasure to state, for the benefit of the afflicted, that I consider WWTAK'S BALSAM OF WILDCHERRY a great blessing to the human race. Having tried it in a case of sevnro affliction of the Lungs, I unhesitatingly recommend it to those similarly afflicted, as the best remedy I hsve ever tried, and one which cured me when physicians said I must die, and when I thought myself that my time to depart was near at hand.

WM. COLDRON.

IIAPDONFIELD, N. J. April, 1843.

On or about the 13th day of October, 1841,1 was taken with a violent pain in the side, near the liver, which continued for about five days, and was followed by the breaking out of an ulcer or an abcess, which relieved the pain a little but caused me to throw up a great quantity of offensive matter, and also much blood. Being greatly alarmed at this, I applied to a physician but he replied that ho thought he could do but little for iv so pi I refused to tske, feeling satisfied that they could do no good. Many other remedies were then procured by my wife and friends, but none did me any good and the discharge of blood and corruption still continued every few days, and at last becamo so offensive that I could scarcely breathe. I was also seised with a violent cough, which at times caused me to raise more blood than I had done before and my disease continued in this way, still growing worse, until February, when all hope of my recovery was given up, and my friends all thought I would die of a gallopping consumption. At tliis moment, when my life wss apparently drawing near its closc, I heard of Dr. WisTAR'S BALSAM OF WIJ.D CHERRY and got a bottle, which relieved me immediately and by the use of only three bottles of this medicine, all my pains were removed my cough and spitting of blood and corruption entirely stopped, and in a few weeks my health was roe to red, so as to enable mn to work at my trade, (which is a carpenter,) and up to this time I have enjoyed goood health.
