III Sick Headache Remedy remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recently offered
10 the public is attracting great attention, not only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials 10
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by il, but also because
there are so great a number of people who are af-
ficted with the distressing complaint, for which
no medicine has before been made public DIR.
Eastman, who discovered the efficacy of his "rem-
edy," is physician in this city in high standing,
with a large practice. He is physician in whom
great confidence is placed; and we do not wonder
that his remedy for very common disease which
has been 80 long needed has attractedthe attention
OF all sufferers from headache who have heard of IT,
From our own knowledge Of DR.. Eastman's chaS
acter and practice, we have doubt that the med
icne deserves the favor il receives and that il will
prove to be a great benefit TO all who may give u
a trial.--Lynn Ncrcs, December %, 1883.

We announce with great regret the death OF
Hon. Albert Constable, Judge ofthe First Judicial
District of this State. He died at Camden, New
Jersey, opposite Philadelphia, on "Wednesday
evening, surrounded by his family. He had been
for long time past suffering from disease of
the heart, aggravated recently by long and
arduous trial. In the death Of this distinguished
| iurist the bar Of Baltimore has lost one Of its
brightest ornaments, and the State one Of the
ablest judges that graced the bench. His death
will be deeply regretted, and the more so because
it will be difficult to fill his place by well
qualified to perform its arduous duties. Previous
TO mis- elevation to the bench, he had occupied,
with honor to himself, and with satisfaction to
his constituents, the posts OF the United States
Congressman and a member OF the State Legis-
lature. 1t will be seen by the report elsewhere
that his death was appropriately noticed by the
members Of the bar.-Baltnore .4nericGn.

TO LOVERS OF THE FRENCH LANGUAGE

TyHE advertiser, a Frenchnlan and grad
il uate Of the Polytechnic School OF Paris,
specially Offers his services teacher OF his
native tongue 10 Schools, Classes, and Private
Pupils of This city and vicinity. The system he
follows 10 facilitate the acquisition Of the French
Language, miies in due proportion theory and
practice; by which avoided the difficulties the
student often meets with IN pursuing one ofth
many theoretical grammars, not sufficiently show
ing the domancal part Of the language, or prac.
iica one, in which the necessary grammatical
rules, if not entirely al least far too much, are
neglected In following these theoretical gram
mars, the student must have experienced that
after having devoted long time TO the mere me-
morizing of sentences, he find himself in posses
sion Of number Of set phrases valuable II Is
true, but from which, destitute OF landmarks, The
slightest deviation must lead him into unknown
regions.
The advertiser feels confident in the assertion
that the pupil, in adopting his method, may, with
little effort, after course of fory-esght lessons
and speak the French, and find the as
sistance of teacher not necessary in the further
prosecution of the studies OF that language.
