II is most undoubted fact that DIR. Sanfords
Invigorator, or Liver Remedy, is one of the
greatest discoveries made in medicine the past
century. 1t has been study of the DIR. during
twenty years practice to find what particular
organ, when diseased, caused the greatest num-
Der of ills or pains, and his conclusion is, that
the liver is the greatest regulator of the system
and the most liable to disease, while if kept free
from disease is preventive of Dyspepsia, Jaun-
dice, general debility, &C., while last but far
from least VIC mention consumption; for our eX-
perience is that more cases ofconsumption occur
from diseased liver than from all other causes
put together.
Taking this to be correct hypothesis, we
have but to find remedy with which to correct
the liver, and we have cure of nearly ull the
diseases we are subject to by simply using
preventive That the IGpigorator is such
remedy, is beyond doubt to all who try it. for
its virtues arc such that for all complaints a,iS-
ing from liver arrangements, it is an unfailiug
remedy, while as family medicine, for all dis
cases Of the stomach or bowels, which arc cauS-
ed in greater or less degree by liver derange-
ment it is the safest, surest and most efficacious
remedy known.-Fria. Press. decT

Due 8th-On Sunday afternoon Frank S.
Mcclure, went to the store of Beattie & Ander-
son, for the purpose of talking business matters
with Bcatte, about an hour afterwards Mcclure
was seen to fall from the door to the sidewalk,
when picked up they found his skull fractured,
from which lie died on Monday night. Mr..
Beattie testified before the Coroner's jury that
after parting with Mcclure in the store, he re-
turned to tic counting room when he heard the
noise at the door, and on going there found
is, that in passing out of the door, the deceased
caught his foot on something, which threw him
on Tue sidewalk, causing the injuries Beattie
was arrested last evening, on the affidavit of
Saml. Mitchell, accusing him Of the murder of
Mcclure, hy striking Eim on the head with an
iron bar. Beattie was held to bail in the sum
of $4,000. The parties are well known and high
iY respected.

Duu 7fmes.-Thc weather yesterday was
dark and gloomy, with an occasional sprinkle OF
rain. Business affairs partook somewhat of the
condition of the weather; the populace ditto, and
everybody and everything looked as ill-natured
and ill grained as an octagenarian viniger ven
der. There was nothing of interest transporting
in the way of local news-no catastrophies, no
incidents, accidents, fights, runaways, love
scrapes, matrimonial squabblcS, or anything of
that character which usually fills the space de-
voted to this department of lively newspaper.
Police matters were very dull, only one or two
triling cases being disposed Of
