THE NEW FIVE CENT PIECE.-A
correspondent of the American Jour?
nal of Neum istnatics, writes :
After a careful search during the
first half of the present year, I have
at length succeeded, by the help of a
friend, in obtaining a proof (?) set of
the one, two, three and live cent pieces
of 1866; and inasmuch us the latter
piece, particularly, is an "original,"
both in desigu and workmanship,
perhaps a description of it may
prove acceptable.
I say it is an "origuul," because I
have seen nothing like it in my col?
lections, which abounds in all sorbs;
"bung downs," Chinese cash, Ger
man stivers, hellers and kreutzers; !
therefore, I think I um correct in the
statement.
On the obverse of this reniarkuble
coin, the first thing that attracts the
attention is a very elaborate and
highly ornamented gridiron, the
clumsy handle of which appears to be
broken from the body, thus render?
ing this culinary utensil almost use?
less. The upper part and sides of
this gridiron are hung with leaves of
some sort, strongly reminding one,of
the savory bunches of herbs displayed
in a market house in Autumn, or ai
green grocer's sign in hnckle-berry
time. Perhaps the same accident
that severed the handle of the gridiron,
also fractured the lower part, for we
notice that it is there skewered by
two arrows, pointing in opposite
directions. ? The motto, '-in Cod we
trust," is very opportune, for the
inventor of this coin may rest assured
that the devil will never forgive him
for such an abortion.
WHITE TENANTRY".-Several gentle?
men of our acquaintance, who leased
lands to tenants from the upper
Counties, have made contracts with
them for another year, says the Selma
Messenger, and are desirous of pro?
curing more labor of the same kimi.
On this subject, the editor of the
Livingston Journal, who is an int elli- j
gent witness on the value of white
labor, makes the following remarks:
"We infer from the experience of
our planters in making the present
crop, that they would willingly try
the experiment of ir?iile labor, if an
opportunity were afforded. We are
so well satisfied of the superiority of
that kind of labor over what is now
employed, that it seems useless to
argue it. The difference between in?
telligent white labor and that of free
negroes is just the difference be?
tween a rational human being and a
machine-and that machine one that
cannot be controlled ht will. It is
the difference between mind and
matter."
It is the intention of-"Brick"
Pomeroy to issue "one edition of a
Democratic blister for tho backs of
bondholders, Um m haters, nigger
lovers, and such props of the God and
morality party, Lo be called the Great
Campaign Democrat." It is to con?
tain some of " Brick's" famous solilo?
quies, pictures of the blessings of
Abolitionism, arguments, etc. ; its j
"aim will be to infuse pluck into!
Democrats, to opeu the eyes of tax j
.payers, to lash the scoundrels over i
the course this fall. It will be a blis- !
ter, a plaster of potash, an antidote !
for puritanism;" and altogether it will
be one of the deadliest shafts wielded
against the radicals during the cont?
ing great political campaigu.
While recognizing the liberty of
the people to carry weapous, as set
forth in the bill of rights, (Jovernor
Throckmorton, of Texas, recom?
mends the checking of the growing
abuse of the privilege, by the levy of
a tax upon all weapous carried about
the person, failure to pay which shall
justify their seizure. This not to
apply to parsons living on tho fron?
tier, or to travelers.
Two ladies were discovered in an
attempt to smuggle under their skirts
a youth fourteen years of age, io the
cars from Hartford to New Haven.*
A jjiTTLiE INCIDENT."-The Cin?
cinnati Commercial records the fol- I
lowing little incident as Inn ing occurred j
while the President was at Pittsburg: \
A little incident occurred during j
tho banquet, which created consider- |
able amusement. A small box address- j
cd to "His Excellency the President of ?
the United States," was brought into
thc banqueting room. At first, leurs j
wore entertained that the box con- ?
tai nod n torpedo, but after a brief
consultation it was* resolved to open
it aud Ko? the cou tents. The lid was j
forced off, and instead of a torpedo,
there lay the harmless but lifeless ?
body of a duck. In fact, the Presi- j
dent's gift was a dead duck.
borne twenty negroes recently in- j
sisted ou riding iu tho ladies' car of !
an Ohio Railroad. The brakesman !
refusing to admit them, they said, j
"They bought first-class tickets, and |
they were determined to have their 1
seats whar dey choosed t<> take 'em- j
peaceably if they could, but forcibly
if dey must," and attempted to force
the door. A light ensued, in which j
the darkies were worsted.
A tu v planet was discovered iu thc
constellation Capricorn, on the night I
of tho 6th of August, by M. Stephan, j
Director of the Marseilles Observa
tory. This discovery, which brings
the number of asteroids np to eighty
eight, was made with the new tele- j
scope, which is constructed ou a ?
hitherto untried principle. The pla- j
net has the appearance of a star of the
nindi magnitude.
A youug Louisville clerk induced ti j
respectable Hoosier girl to run away j
from her home and go over to Louis
ville, whore he promised to marry i
her. He kept her at a boarding
house two or three days, and made
dishonorable proposals to her. She j
got him into the parlor, locked the j
door and cowhided him within au J
inch of his life, whereat the people i
said good for the Hoosier girl. "

tyrs to Intermittent Fever, a wold with
you. Tho responsibility for your sum ring
rests upon yourselves. Just as surely as
you shake to-day, or will shake to-morrow,
HOSTETTER'S CELEBRATED STOMACH HITTERS
will extinguish the disease under which
you labor. Had' you taken* this genial
tonic as a preventive, you would have no
need of it as a cure; for it renders the Sys?
tem impervious to all miasmatic fevers.
But since you neglected thc precaution,
rid yourselves without delay of the com?
plaint by resorting to tho only reliable
remedy. Dreak the chills with Hostetter's
Hitters, and they will return no more. This
is the experience of thousands, and it will
be yours. Quinine is a slow means of re?
lict; it is nauseous to the last degree; it is
more dangerous than the malady itRclf; in
many cast s it utterly fails. How different
is the effect of the Hitters! Their curative
action is rapid: they are agreeable to the
palate; they are not only entirely harm?
less, but tend inevitably to strengthen the
constitution and'prolong life; they never
hare foiled, and it is confidently assumed
that they nerti- van fail in any case of
Fever and Ague, however inveterate in its
character. To be without Hostetter's Bit?
ters in any region infested with Intermit?

A NEW ANO GRAND Eroou IN MEDICINE.
Dr. Maggiel is tho founder of a new medi?
cal system* The qnantitariaus, whose vast
internal doses enfeeblo the stomach and
paralyze the bowels, must give precedence
to the man who restores health and appe?
tite, wivh from one to two of his extraordi?
nary Pills, and cures the most virulent
sores with a box or so of his wonderful and
all-healing Salve. These two great speci?
fies of the Doctor arc fast superseding all
the stereotyped nostrums of thc day. Ex?
traordinary cures by Maggiel's Fills and
Salve have opened the eyes of the public to
the inefficiency of the (so-called) remedies
of others, and upon which people have so
long blindly depended. Maggiel's Fills arc
not of the class that are swallowed by the
dozen, ?nd of which every box full taken
creates an absolute necessity for another.
One or two of Maggiel's Fills suffices to
place the bowels in perfect order, tone the
stomach, create an appetite and render the
spirits light and buoyant. There is no
griping and no reaction in the form of con?
stipation. If the liver is affected, its func?
tions are restored; and if the nervous sys?
tem in feeble, it is invigorated. This last
quality makes tho medicines very dcsirablo
for the want? of delicate females. Ulcerous
and eruptive diseases are literally extin?
guished by the disinfectant power of Mag?
giel's Salve. In fact, it is hero announced
that Maggie?$ Bilious, Dyspeptic and Diar?
rhoea Pills cure where all others fail. While
for burns, scalds, chilblains, cuts and all
abrasions of the skin MaggieVs Salve is in?
fallible. Sol 1 by J. Maggiel, ll Pine street,

NAME AND TRADE MARK.
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.
AS other parties aro advertising themselves as having purchased the property ?nd
business of the Emery Agricultural Works, increased their facilities, ana are con?
tinuing tlie business, the effect of which, if not the intention, is to divert the patronage
and business from the well known and long established EMERY'S ALBANY. AORICUL
TURAL WORKS of this city, the proprietors of these Works, in self-defence, and to
inform their patrons that they still live, beg a careful perusal of the following card:
The above celebrated Works were originated and erected during the years 1847, '48
and '49, by tho present senior proprietor, who has (with short interruptions) boen con?
stantly connected with them as the principal manager, aud since 1863, in connection
with his junior brothers, under the style of Emery Brothers.
During the summer of 1862, he attended th' World's Fair at London^ with some of
his leading inventions, atid remained abro i J nearly two years, engaged in successfully
establishing tlieir manufacture.
In the meantime, owing to embarrassments and losses, the Arm of Emery Brothers,
consisting of Wm. B and G. W. Emery, made an a-signment, and these entire works
and business wece sold, and puroiiased by other parties, and the said firm ceased to
i xist from November 1, lat>2, leaving the brothers, Win. B. and G. W., hopelessly bank?
rupt.
On "nis ri turu from England, in the early part of 1861, the present senior proprietor
negotiated - ir aud re-purchased the entire interest, real and personal, in and t-o these
works ami business, including its entire accumulation of patterns. Working machinery
and its business, and continued the same, witti the aid of Wm. B. and G. W., to No?
vember 1, 1864, when he assumed its entire management on his own account-Wu. B.
audG. W., for a very valuable cash cons.deration, preferring to relinquish all antici?
pated interests and retire therefrom, and with the intention with these funds of com?
promising with their creditors.
He has since associated with him his eldest son, HORACT HEBBERT EMERY, under
the style and name at the head of this notice, and continues the business, in all its
branches, at the old stand-than which no more owmplete establishment of its kind
exists in tlie country.
Th- v have largely increased their facilities, made many new and valuable additions
and im: roveuacnts to their already large assortment of machines, which their expe?
rte.au i observation, at home ana abroad, have suggested as desirable.
The semor member of the firm is the pioneer of this business here, and he has been
the designer, protector and patentee of all the leading and sueceswiul machines which
have given the wida celebrity to these works; among which are the EMERY HORSE
POWERS. COTTON GINS and CONDENSERS, Threshing Machines. Sawing Milla,
Corn Sheliers, Churning Machin?s, Cotton Openers, A?., all of which they now ofter
the public on the most liberal terms, and a coutiuuance of their patronage*is solicited.
In the articles of Cotton Gins and Condensers, they are the only parties manufactur?
ing them with the improvements which have given these Oms the precedence and their
world-wide reputation, notwithstanding other partie? are now representing that they
have purchased the Emery Agricultural Works and are making these celebrated ma?
chines-as a gla..ce at the facts and their machines wiR satisfy the moat common
observer.
The property which was purchased by said other parties, and called the Emerv Agri?
cultural Works, consisted of a receut collection of machines, tools, patterns. Ac., by
Mr. Farr, with tho services of Wm. B. and G W. Emery, and located in the village of
Bath, in an adjoining Comity, and in value about *5,000 to t7,000; the two Emerys tak?
ing employment with the no v organization.
We again solicit the attention of th? agricultural public ami trade, and assure them
that nothing wiU be spared to maintain the well-earned reputation of our wares, which
we otter on the most liberal terms to farmers, planters and dealers. Circulars and
price h-ts sent oratis on -Medication.
