Tiiisl well known .lournal. the third in age, in the
State, li«s been published at Clarksville, Kc-d River
County, Texas, since the :it)th September 18-12, by
its present Editor and Proprietor; and is issued on
Saturday of each week.
Tiiki.stamiakn aims at filling the place of a pub-
lic Jijurnal, in its fullest sense. The representative
of the region in which it has been so long published,
the Northern District of Texas—noting its public ex-
pressions, its products, its general progress, and as-
sisting so far as it may in its advancement, it is also
a compendium of the general news ;of tiie day, for-
eign and domestic a record of Polities, of Improve-
ments, Agriculture, the Fine arts, to all of which is
added as space may allow, a choice Selection of lite-
rary miscellany.
During the business season. Price Currents of the
New York and New Orleans Markets will be kepi up.
Great pains is taken to glean fully, from a very
large number of exchanges, every item of genera' in-
terest.
In Polities, the paper is unequivocally and un iwir-
vingly Democratic, and opposed to all ultraismt. I.s
editor believes to the fullest extent in the toleration
of Opinion, religious or political ; apd cannot there
fore'ttake part in the proscription of his fellow men
for the accident of birth, or of religious culture. His
position in this respect does not admit of change.but
he will cindeavur to discuss temperately and respect-
fully. the pnbtfc issues requiring notice by a public
Journal.
The!Standard having already a large circulation,
is published at the low rate of per annum in
advance, §53,5(1, at the end of six months,or $4,00 af-
ter the expiration of 'lie year.
Fifty two numbers will in a!! cases be furnished for
a yearfs subscription. This price, for the quantity
of reading matter, is low for this locality. All mate-
rial requisite for publication! comes to us bnrthened
with nln enormous expense of transportation, etc..
which prevents the possibility of competition in price
with Northern Journals, which find Type, Paper,and
Ink at their doors at first prices. The citizen who
takes a considerate view of the matter, however, will
perceive that tiie Journal at .home brings liiin the
Foreign news more regularly, and generally later,
than any one or two papers that he can get from
abroad: that it furnishes him domestic ucWs which
tbe foreign paper cannot: and also gives him a dis-
cussion of home interests and Stale policy, which the
foreign paper will not Httempt to do. For these rea-
sons iti is cheaper at last to supply himself with the
Home paper, and assist in maintaining an organ most
important to him as a medium of expression and a
representative of his interests, the more respectable
in its character and appearance, the more liberally
it is sustained. '

as any other paper in the State, at as low price, as
any of the same class. It is printed on the best

RESPECTFULLY inform their friends and the
public generally, that they have greatly enlarg-
ed their manufacturing establishment, and have now
such facilities as enable tliem to execute all orders
with despatch, and in the best style of workman-
ship.
They continue to manufacture three classes of their
justly celebrated
Patent Portable Circular Saw Mills,
which have given so much satisfaction to purchasers
throughout the Cnion. Those mills can be driven
by horse, steam, or wnter power, being equally well
adapted to either. They manufacture all kinds and
sizes of steam powers, such as Steam Engines, Boiler
and Smoke Stacks, mounted on wheels, and Boiler
and Siuoke Stacks, mounted on wheels ready to be
attached to the saw mill, with the engine detached
ready fo go to work, or Steam Engine and Plain
Cylinder Boiler.
They manufacture also a large size Horse Power,
with an enlarged wheel, and Third Class Saw Mill,
particularly adapted to plantation purposes: many
hundreds of which latter are in use throughout the
States, doing good service and enjoying the favor of
the best judges.
They also manufacture Ilorse Powers ofthree sizes,
adapted to all the purposes of the plantation and
farm: also Timber Wheels and Lumber Cars.
Their Portable Circular Saw Mills have been great-
ly improved, and may now be said to be perfect in
all their details, and to rank as the greatest labor-
saving machines of the age.
Caution against Infringements.
As-their mills are patented and their rights have
been infringed upon, and they have lately obtained
damages in anbtion brought in the United States Cir-
cuit Court for the District of Maryland, for an in-
fringement of their patent rights, they hereby fore-
warn and caution all persons from purchasing mills
similar in principle to theirs from unauthorized buil-
ders and manufacturers or their agent or agents, as
they are determined to seek redress through the laws
of their country, for.every violation of their rights
and privileges, as guaranteed by the patent granted
them by the Government of tbe United States.

" LUMBER! LtfMBER! f
THE subscriber takes this method to
inform the public in general, that he
has become the sole proprietor of the
  Steam Circular Saw Mill, heretofore
conducted under the name and style of Henderson
& Gibson, which will hereafter be carried on under
the name of L. D. Henderson alone.
Here permit him to return his most grateful thanks
to the old friends and customers of the late firm of
Henderson & Gibson, for the very liberal patronage
which was extended to them during the past season,
in the purchase of their lumber, and he hopes by
keeping on hand at all times, a constant supply of
seasoned lumber, at low prices, to merit a continua-
tion of the same. .
He has taken a great deal of pains, at a consider-
able expense, to causc'way the road through the
Pine flats, leading from bis mill to the prairie,in the
direction of the Western counties, over which wag-
o.tis can now pass without any difficulty, with heavy
loiids.
.Hie hasemployed Mr. Wm. P.,Snellas sawyer,and
Mr. Jo. Kitciiell, temporarily, as engineer, and from
jbeJsjMiwn ability.of these gentlemen, as sawyer and
engineer, he jjpejs no hesitancy in pledging'himself
to fill bills,, with as much dispatch and correctness,
as any mill in Red River county. His mill has been
running every day since the late purchase, and he
has been cutting from 400ft to 6ltfK> feet of lumber per
day. He has flow accumulated on the yard,upwards
itf atfOjlXH) feet of lumber,- nicely stacked, and ready
tor sale, at the price of $1 25 eta. per hundred feet,

PROSPECTUS OF THE
ADVANCE GUARD.
TIIE Advance Glabd is to be aDemocratic Re-
publican Journal, published on good paper,
twenty two by thirty three inches. To be publish-
ed in Sherman. Grayson eountv Texas,by Wallace
A. Price, late of the City of New Orleans, and C.
C. Wells of Grayson county Texas, and will com-
mence its issues between the first and middle of
February next, and be published weekly regularly
every Tuesday morning, at the low rate of $2 in
advance. S2 50 il payment is delayed six months,
and 50 at tbe end of the year, being one fifth
cheaper than any Journal of like size in this por-
tion of the State.
It is the hope aim of the Editors, not merely to
reap from the Advance Guard, pecuniar}* benefits,
but to conduct it in such a manner as to* be of ser-
vice to the party whose principles they espouse, to
place it at low figures, so as to be within the reach
of all classes,  itd fo extend its circulation so as to
make it a profitable and available medium of ad-
vertisement to benefit the portion of country in
winch it is situated, and to fill the place of a pub-
lic Journal with thte entire reading public. It be-
ing the representative of that region of country,
where its Junior Editor was raised, it will pay due
attention to its pro luctions, wants, prospects Ac.,
as well as to its public, social and religious phases,
also to the foreign and local news of the day, and
its pages will at all times be embclished With a
chotcjselection of Literary and Religious miscel-
lany. The trading public, Merchants, Druggists
&c., who purchase at New Orleans,as well as Stock
dealers and drovers, would do well to remember
that the senior and Principle editor has been for a
series of years, a citizen of New Orleans, and has
therefore been at trouble and expense in procuring
reliable co rrespondents in that city,so that we flat-
ter ourselveH that we will be able to give the pub-
lic through our columns, tbe general news of the
city, as well as prices current, exchange and stock
markets newk at least a week sooner than th«ly
con l>e bad through any other medium.
The Advance Guard is unswervingly Democrat-
ic. and opposed to all*other political organizations.
The strictest attention will be given to tiie political
events and issues of the day. and the energies of
tbe editors will at all times be devoted to the ad-
vancement of the principles aad interests of its
party. Our position politically being unckangabie,
yet in any dealings we may have with different po-
litical partisans upon any political or social Issue,
we shall endleavor lo treat them with mildness and
courtesy. Oinr columns are at all times open to
Religious contributions fitun any denomination
whatever, as we advocate BeHeion and morality
It is not the expectatioa of the Editors to meet-witk
as liberal patronage in the infancy of our Journal,
ae ts bestowed on older established ones. Rut the
senior Editor' having been engaged in the business
for the last fourteen years, and for several yean
with the most prominent city Presses, we do flatter
ourselves we oan give as much interesting news,
and as general satisfaction to all who do patronise
us as any other, and hope by constant attention to
the ir&nta o£ our patrons, and the interests of our
party, on a longer acqnaint*tyeet 4Q merit their
 b and support, and hbpr to he with the
journals <rf this region of Texas.

she wait -attacked with Bilions fever, and came
.very near dying, her physician had to employ the
use of Mercury very freely, and she became sali-
vated, her jaws became united, and fiiribur.years
she was unable to open them to feed herself with
any solid food, etcept through the space occasion-
ed by the loss of a tooth.lniBct sbe could scarcely
get the thickness of a case-kuifc between her teetK
her lower jaw was very much protruded, hot that
