4 PCzzLED JUsTICE.-A man named
Josh, was brought before country
squire for stealing hog, and three wit
nesses being examined swore they saw
him steal it. A wag having volunteered
as counsel for Josh, knowing the scope
of the squire's brain, arose and address
ed him as follows:
"May it please your honor, l can es-
tablish this mans honesty beyond the
shadow of doubt, for 1 have twelve
witnesses TO swear they did net see him
steal II.
The squire rested his head for few
moments on his hand as if in deep
thought, and with great dignity arose,
and brushing back his hair said:
''if there are twelve men who didn't
see him steal it, and only three who did,
I discharge the prisoner"

CEDRON Buffers,
The Latest and Most Important Dis.
cOVery Of the 10th Century.

MO MANS NAME is MORE INTIMATELY
~ connected with the history of the Materia
Medica of the United States, or more tavorably
known as q pioneer in medical discovery, than
that of DR.. JOHN BULL, of Louisville, Ky. His
inimitasle preparation of Sarsaparilla has long
stood at the M ad of the various compounds OF that
valuable drug. His COMPOUND PICTORIAL oE WILD
CHERRY has become household word throughout
the West and South; and his Worm LoZenges, IN
less than year after their introduction, attained
a reputation as widespread as the continent OF
North America. But the browning glory of his
life remains to be attained in his latest discovery
or rather combination; for he does not claim to
have been the discoverer ofCEDRON, which is the
basis of the bitters offered to the public.
That honor belongs to the native inhabitants OF
| Central America, to whom its virtues have been
| known for more than two hundred years. Armed
with it, the Indian bids defiance to the most dead
| " malaria, and handles without fear the most
venemous serpents. 1t is a belief with them that
while there is breath left in the body, the Oedron
| is potent to cure, matter what the disease may
! be.
While DR.. Bull is not prepared to indorse this
extravagant pretension, he is nevertheless salts
| fed from thorough examination OF the evidence
relative to its virtues, that as remedy and pre-
( tentative for all diseases arising from exlosure
| either to changes of weather and climate. or &c
| the miasmatic influences, it stands without g
rival and justly deserves the reputation it hos sc
long enjoyed in Central America and the Wesi

gloom pervaded our city yesterday as the news
spread of the decease Of Brigsdier General
James Cooper, Of Frederick, Maryland. He died
ct the American Hotel early yesterday morn
Ing, In the ffty-fourth year Of his age, of
congestion Of the lungs.
About noon yesterday General Cooper's re-
mains we're taken to the depot to be forwarded
to his late residence in Maryland. They were
escorted to the depot by the band of the Gov
vernor's Guards, by q cavalry company and
two companies of infantry. by Governor Tod
and staff, and by other civil and military of
fcials, and q large conoourse of citizens.
General Cooper, during his brief sojourn in
our city, had won the confidence, respect and
esteem of the entire community, We feel the
loss of 80 good man and so valuable an of.

FL0UR-A hrmer market without change In prices.-
Superne good grades could have been sold at as so to

WHIeKY-A dull market and prices declined to 439
43kc the latter rate for wagon.
PhoVlSIONs-The feeling in the market was hrmer,
and here was some disposition to speculate in lard and
for city 9Hc was offered and refused. 100 900 lbs bulk
shoulders sold at but the offerings exceeded the de-
mand at this rate. We heard Of inquiry for Mess
Pork. There Is no pressure to sell anything, properly
peabing as the impression is that gold has about .each
ed the bottom.
GRocERIEs-A dull market, and little or no de-
mand. Prices are UNCHANGED.
WHBAT-There 10 a continued fair demand for red,
from the local and interior miers at 81 209I 22 but
the offerings are light and holders generally asking
81 25 which is above the views Of buyers and there Is
nothing Of consequence doing. There scarcely any in
qury for white and prices merely nominal. The on
ly sale reported was 200 bush red at 81 90.

and the MARKETS dull, but We have changes to re-
port In prlchs, and continue to quote sheed and ear
d690D7Oc In bulk, and shelled at 6l@s2c, including
sacks, with small sales at these figures.
OATS-The market continues dull buyers having
Withdrawn and prices are dropping. They are freely
offered at 73c in bulk and &c. including sacks The
sale made public was 1000 bush in Fulton at zoe.
RYE-The demand is quite limited and prices sre to
great extent nominal but there ia not much on the
MARKET and holders are hrm at 95@97c for prime on ar
rival the former rate In bulk.
BARLEY-The market has not undergone any change
since our last report The receipts are light but the de-
mand Is only moderate. We quote prime 20 choice fall

THEATER-BENEFIT OF Mas. DICKSON To
morrow evening this charming actress appeals
to the generosity Of her friends and the public.
We scarcely can tell which would compose the
majority, her friends or the public, for, to us,
It seems ss II all Columbus were her friends.
We understand she has provided an immense
bill, with nothing but fun and music-a bill to
suit the times-foS we have 80 much tragedy
out of doors, that we do not care to see tragedy
in -doorp.
This is not only her first, but her farewell
appeal, as Mr.. Ellsler closes the Athenaum in
a few dsya, aud returns with his excellent com.
pany to Cleveland. Mrs, Dickson has become
the greatest favorite We have ever known In
Columbus. She came here upheralded, simply
as member of the Stock Company, and now
che is welcomed nightly with hear!ier applause
than some of the Stars. We are glad to hear
that the Box Seats are rapidly filling up, and
we advise all admirers OF a worthy and estima7
BILE lady, sll lovers Of good comedy, to secure
their seats early, for we are much mistaken il
the Atbeneum is not crowded on Monday
night.
Mrs, Dickson will appear as Phoebe in the
comedy Of Paul Pry, and Pocahontas in John
Bfougham's burlesqne of that name; Messrs
Lewis and Ellsler in two capital characters
each. Mr.. Dickson will solve the mystery Of
the MAN Without Head"-report saya q
fine piece of eccentric acting on his part Mr.
Spohr enlsrges his Orchestra for the occasion,
and excellent music may be expected. Go, by
all means.
