morning resulted in a complete route of the
Know Nothipgs. Although they had a clear
field, and fair fight, and strained every
norVe of the panty to it utmost tension, the
majority for Mr.. English, the anti Know No.

to the Know Nothing party since the election
in February last. Of 252 votes, when Mr. Ad-
Olson, the Know Nothing candidate for Mayor,
received 15S majority over his competitor for
Mayor. The following is the result: Number
of votes polled, Cos; English, anti-Know No

II Bakers Eitters.-This home manufac-
tured remedy for Dyspepsia, Nervousness, and
other diseases arising from disordered stomach,
&c, is rapidly winning its way to favor wherever
IL is introduced. We were shown letter on Satur-
day last from gentleman i'm Hanover, who de-
clares that after six wears intense suffering with
Dyspepsia and nervous headache, during which
time lie used, with little or effect great va
Tlety OF medicines recommended by others, he has
been perfectly cured of both annoyances by the use
of four bottles OF BAKERS PREMIUM BIrTERs.
With such unquestionable endorsements we think
that those who afflicted and yet fail to try this
remedy, deserve TO suffer. Capt. Baker is one of
our most reliable citizens, and we feel perfectly
satisfied that under no circumstances would he
recommend the use Of his Bitters where he did not
think hat 2Ood would result from so doing. For
cholera li.orDus and such like complaints we know
these bitiers are excellent, having had frequent
occasions 20 try them.-Richm0ad Morning Mail

value OF "CayteT's Spanish MirtxYs," for that
almost incurable disease, ScTofhlG.
Without being disposed or deeming II necessary
to go into the particulars or the case, 1 can say
that the astonishing results that have been pro-
duced by the use OF that medicine on member
Of ray oTn family, and under my own observation
physicians had been exhausted and all the usual
remedies had failed, fully justify me in recon-
men6ing Its use to all who may be suffering from
that dreadful fnalady
do not mean to say that 1t Is adapted to ill
constitutions, or that IL will afford the same relief
in ell cases: for, OF course, 1 can know nothing
about that-but Of what have seen of the effects,
