RINGS REMEDY

For FeUer and AgUe, Bilious Renaittent and In
terRHteHt FeUers, and all their kindred dis
eGsee.
There was a time when Fever and Ague and
Bilious Remittent Fever were considered
endemlcs-the special scourges of particular
regions and localities. TEey seem of late
years to have escaped beyond their old bounda-
ries. They PROSTATE the population of old
settlements as well as new; they reach the
hilltop as well as sweep the marsh and the
fOrest they prevail in northern cities as well a.
on the deltas Of southern rivers, and in the
swamps of the Southwest. Medical skill
seems to pit itself against them in VAIN
They triumph over all its stereotyped drugs; /;
they fasten themselves upon whole districts;
they appear to become even hereditary.
But at length Science, Research, and Ex-
pertinent have perfected the means Of repres-
sing, checking and exterminating these dire
diseases. A preparation which has been
tested during six years Of private practice,
and modified from time to time during that
period, until susceptible Of nofurther improve
ment, is now ushered before the public under
the name Of RNG's REMEDY as a positive and
invariable cure for Fever and Ague, Bilious
Remittent Fever, and all maladies which come
properly under the head of remittents and in
termittents. The proprietor of this great
medicine wishes Il 10 bo understood that ne
introduces it as an INFALLIBLE SPECIFIC. and
guarantees its uniform success This is a bold
but it is founded on the obserya-
tiOn of years, and the equally unqualified
declarations Of every patient-and the aggre-
gate amounts tosomet ethousands-wh have re-
sorted to it. The sufferer who NAV try the
q Remedy" will not have to wait long for a
confirmation of these statements. The mirror
viii reflect day by day less sallow and ghast-
y face, as the supply Of the medicine is df-
strength, appetite, spirits viii re-
urn; the duration of the chills and subse-
luent heats viii decrease at each recurrence,
intil these symptoms cease; and before q
month, and in some cases before a week is
'yer, the eonvalescent will be in condition to
esume the duties of active life. There is no
'uch word as fall with RIse's REMEDY. The
fleet is as invariable as it is saiutary.
What householder, what traveller, then, can
lfford, if health be valuable, to be without
his safeguard against class of diseases so
Universally prevalent as Intermittent and Re-
intent Fevers To the western pioneer and
he city resident it is alike indispensable; and
taken Occasionally during the warm season
will be found an admirable preventive of all
ndemics and epidemics prodaced by an i'm
'ure atmosphere.

TRIBUTE OF REsPEcT.-At an early hour on

sembled at their hall preparatory to perform
the last tribute of respect to departed broth
er, Moses DARsr; and being joined by the
brethren of Union Star Division, together with
the friends and neighbors of the deceased, a
procession was formed consisting of about three
hundred persons, whence they proceeded, with
solemnity and good order about two and
half miles to the grave, where the obsequies
were performed. After which a special COM
mittee was appointed to draft resolutions, ex-
pressive of the sentiments of the Division on
the occasion, who reported the following,
which was unanimously adopted: Whereas in
the dispensatich Of Providence, we are called
to lament the loss of a brother who was much
endeared to us, by his connection with our
Division, and his uniform, kind, and charita-
bic spirit, manifested in his department; and
with sorrow to reflect that the seat once filled
by our dear brother is now vacant, and that the
voice once heard in our hall, is hushed in death
forever. Therefore, -.
Resolved, That in the death Of brother No

TIaE.-About 1O O'Clock On Tuesday


TiRE.-About / % O'Clock On Tuesday
morning, FIRE broke out in the Char
Factory owned by Mr.. JOIN B. SHEP-
HERD, in the block betpeen Second and
Third streets, below the Public Square,
which. consumed the building with its
contents. We understand the Ere
caught from a stove that was heated for
the purpose of making varnish. The
proprietor had some outdoor business
to attend to, and during his absence it
is supposed the fire communicated to
the shayings on the floor, and then to
the building, which spread so rapidly
that in few minutes the whole was in
flames. By the exertions of our citizens
the fire was confined to the building
where it originated, and the stable ad-
joining. belonging to Mrs. Rachael Han
nan, notwithstanding they were al
most surrounded by old wooden shan
ties. Mr.. Shepard's loss we presume
is about $500. Mrs. Hannan's proba-
bly, $3.50. Mr.. Reuben McIntire had
material in the Chair Factory, valued
at $500, which was consumed.
Our citizens are deserving of
great praise for their noble exertions in
battling and subduing the flames. The
ladies turned out en- masse and rushed
to the rescue and performed good ser
vice.
Had this fire originated previous to
the recent rains, during the scarcity of
water in the private cisterns, tits ques-
tionable if thousands of dollars worth of
property would not have been sacrificed.
Is not this another warning, and does it
not call loudly for prompt and efficient
action on the part of our Trustees to
provide for the public welfare? This is
the second time we have been favored
by kind Providence with an abundant
supply of water in the very nick of time,
to prevent the destruction of our town,
and destitute as we are of the necessa-
ry fire apparatus, it is astonishing that
we have battled SO successfully with the
devouring element There is scarcely
a cistern in the vicinity of the fire but
is exhausted, which shows how nobly
our citizens worked. Cisterns should
be dug, hose procured and the fire ap-
paratus put in complete working order,
SO that we may have something to rely
upon at all times. 1t will be found the
cheapest in the end.

The RECENT ESCAPE OF q. s. PRIs-
oNERs.--About two weeks ago, seven
men, who were under commitment by
authority of the U. S. Government, and
two Of the sherif's prisoners. effected
their escape from the old Debtors Pris-
son in Eldridge street by saving off the
iron window bars. Since that period,
testimony has been taken before Com.
Bridgham, which reveals the curious
fact that the heavy iron bars were sof-
tened to such degree, by the use of a
chemical preparation, that they could be
cut or sawed as if they had been lead
1t is quite certain that Hungarian
chemist, who was confined there for
debt, manufactured the article, and he
was among the party who fed.

H The heavy rain of last Wednes-
day night proved very destructive to
corn lands in this vicinity. On many
side-hills the soil even was washed
away, and few fields that were planted
escaped having the seed washed out and
SO disarranged that replanting is una
voidabls. This is to be regretted the
more, when the high price and scarcity
ofseed grain is taken into consideration.
The wheat crop has frightened up
amazingly since the recent rains, and is
admitted by all there will be very
large yield, this season.

CROSSING TIE Sr. LAwKENcE.-The
St Lawrence river at Montreal eontin-
ued, at last accounts, "wednesday, the
25th April, to be filed with ice. On
Monday last. as we learn from the Mon
treai Transcript, twenty-three persons,
including thirteen ladies' and gentle-
men who wished to take the cars from
Boston, and ten ferrymen, undertook to
cross the river on foot. When about
four hundred yards from the Montreal
shore, a loud shouting from the land
they had quilted. and sharp Kissing
sound, caused by the rapid upturning Of
the ice above them, warned them that a
"shove" had commenced, and that the
ice was moving down. They were In a
very dangerous position, and Immediate
ly commenced making for the shore
Around them was moving mass of
jagged, rotten ice, and they were obliged
to jump from one cake to another. Fl
nally all reached a place of safety, with
the exception of one gentleman, Mr..
who was brought ashore by
the current, upon cake of ice, dead
he was stunned or crushed BY
the concussion of the ice, or whether he
was frightened to death, is not known.

there has not for many years been a
spring when the wheat throughout the
country gave such promise of an abund-

quarters the accounts are Of the most
cheering character.
From all parts of our State we have
the same intelligence. The fields of
Iowa and Missouri are also very promis-
ing, and we receive none but the most
favorable accounts from Wisconsin,
Michigan. Indiana, Ohio, and the wheat
growing portions of New York and
Canada. The only exceptions to the
unusually encouraging prospects which

PRICE OF WooL.-The first indica-
tons we have seen of the probable price
of wool this season, we find in the Cadiz
Republican of the Sd inst. We copy
the paragraph for the benefit of our
farmer readers: -f
son last Tuesday between seventeen
and eighteen thousand pounds of Z wool
was sold by the Sheriff, in this place, at
38t cents. On the following day up
wards of one thousand pounds of full
blood was sold in Rumley, by the same
officer, at 401 cents. These are about
the figures the same wool was bought
at last season, from which we infer that
the new clip will command at least as
high prices as that of last year."
