may readily imagine, were singular enough.

disturbed and wild, that / was quite alarm

mind, nor did his subsequent condnct re-
assure me. Our train was an express, and
he inquired eagerly, which was the first
station at which We were advertised to
stop. l consulted my Bradshaw, and furn-

A GENTLEMAN


Who, two years ago, lay upon what his physicians
and all his friends believed to be his death bed, is
now alive and in the full vigor of health His dis
ease was Consumption of which nearly III his rela-
tives had died. The circumstances which led to
his recovery were as follows: His younger brother
was in the habit of reading to him from books
about the house to while away his weary hours
One day he read to him from an old book published
in London about the middle of the seventeenth
century, of what was styled ga sympel and certain
remmeedee for diseases of We Lungs" Not wholly
without hope, and unwilling to leave anything un-
tried which gave promise of relief, the sick and
dying had the prescribed remedies prepared
and commemorate use. The result was favorable.
In two months he was able to walk about the prem
ises without difficulty, and in seven months from
the time that he commenced its use he was en-
tirely well, and has not been confined day since.
Grateful towards all-wise providence for his
restoration, he prescribed it for all in his vicinity
who were afflicted with diseases Of the lungs and
general debility, and in every case it has proved
effective.
Thoroughly satisfied that it is the only safe and
certain cure for Consumption, and wishing to do
bis fellow beings who are suffering, as much good
as possible, he has concluded to send the recipe,
with full instructions for putting up and using the
medicine, free to all who may order it. In or
der to defray the expenses of advertising, letter
writing postage &C., he requires each applicant for
the Recipe to enclose 10 cents and direct to M. T.
McKelvey, Ssndusky City, o. and it will promptly
sent by seturn of mail. jan7-l1ly.

enough to say that Judge Hovey made his

1000 to 1900 majority. Save light, in

E3s- The Citizens Bank of Tennessee
turns out to have been gotten up by certain
men of property who had gained a reputa-
ton for honor and integrity, which they did
not deserve-and used by them as a regular
wild cat, swiudling establishment. The cir
culation is reported at 100000, all of
which, nearly, will be lost to the public,
and the amount of which, the managers
have gotten into their own pockets. The
affair has aroused strong popular indigna-
ton at Memphis, and the swindlers are in
danger Of falling into the hands Of Judge
Lynch. The papers of that city are max
