ID Sick Headache Remedy.-A remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recently offered
to the public is attracting great attention, only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials TO
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by il, but also because
there are so great number ofpeople who are af
hic,ed 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,
win large practice. lie is physician in whom
great confidence is placed; and we do not wonder
that his remedy for a very common disease, which
has been so long needed, has aitractedthe attention
of all sufferers from headache who have heard Of il.
From our own knowledge Of DR.. Eastman's char
acter and practice, we have doubt that the med
icne deserves the favor II receives, and that il will
prove to be a great benefit 10 all who may give il
a trial.-Lsnn Nesrs, December %, 1853.

Inqaest.-on Sunday morning, about eleven
o'clock, the body Of man named Augustus Davis
aged forty-eighi years, was found near Twenty
first street and Corcoran's ice-house, ut the base
OF steep ledge Of rocks. Il appeared, from the
investigation Of the jury that the deceased at a
late hour on Saturday night, had attended rattle
on M street, and that he had been drinking freely
Of intoxicating liquors. Their verdict states the
facts in the case but they were unable to agree as
to whether Davis fell accidentally over the ledge,
or was pushed over by the party with whom he
was returning from the rattle.
