Great care should be exercised in
the purchase Of Government bonds to
see that their numbers have not been
altered from the original numbers. In
several cases where bonds have been
stolen their numbers have been chang
ed by inserting two additional figures,
one before and one after the original
number, in that way making the bonds
worthless to whoever shall buy them.
The frequent thefts of these bonds
that occur render caution on the part
Of purchasers especially necessary.

Mrs. Moore, the widow of the late
Thomas Moore, the poet, died at Slo.
perton Cottage on Monday, Sept 4, at
the age of 6S years. "Bessy" Moore
does not appear to occupy great
place in her husbands poetry, but
rarely was great poet more attached
to his wife. Through all his letters
and journals he is never tired of referr-
ing to her-quoting what she said,
telling what she did, describing how
she looked, and recording how she was
admired. He married her in 1911, and
her history is summed up in this one
phrase-that she was the delight of
his life. Mrs. Moore was the last that
remained of the present generation of
the Moore family.

HARVEY SIcKLER, Esq, the able editor oi
the Tunkhannock (Pa) Democrat, publish
es. the following in his issue of 30th of Or-
toher, 1861: E,
We deem 1t due to Messrs. j. G. Aver Dc
Co., and the public, to make Known our
experience with the use of their EXT. SAls-
sApARILLA in our family, by stating the
circumstances under which it was taken,
and its effects. =,
When our only child, now in his third
year, was about eight months old, q sore
appeared first in small pimples on his fore
head over his nose. These rapidly inereas-
cd. and uniting formed loathsome, vlru-
lent sore, which finally spread over his
forehead and face, not even excepting MS
cyclids, which became so swollen that his
ewes were closed. We called skillful ply
sician, who administered the usually pre-
scribed remedies. A solution of nitrate OF
silver was applied until the mass OF cor
ruption which covered his entire face turn
ed let black. The sore again and again
burst through the scorched and artificial
skin formed by this solution. Meanwhile
many remedies were employed without
any apparent benefit, For fifteendays and
nights. .Ae was constantly held by his pa
rents tGkeep him from tearing open with
his hands the corrupt mass which covered
his face.
Everything having failed we were in
duced by the high recommendations of
Ayers SARsAPARILLA for the cure of Scrot-
ulous disease, to give it n trial. In his
treatise on Scrofula, Dr.Ayer directs mild
solution of Iodide of Potash to be used as
wash while taking the Sarsaparilla, and
it was faithfully applied. =, i,
Before one bottle of Sarsaparilla had
been given the sore had lost much OF its
virulence and commenced to heal. Anoth-
er bottle effected an entire cure, and the
general prediction that the child must die
was contradicted. His eyelashes, which
came out, grew again, and his face Is LETT
without scar, as smooth as anybody's. 1t
is unnecessary for me to state in how high
esteem we hold AYERS SARsAPARILLA.

This excited suspicion, and an examination
of the sleigh disclosed splashes of blood
found upon the seat and dash board. There
upon party started out on the road lead
ing to the residence of the missing man,
and, when three miles out, found his body
In the condition described above.
Meanwhile Clear was making arrange
ments to destroy all evidences of his guilt
and leave the vicinity. Entering the Har-
rington house, he changed $50 in postal
currency for $l5 in greenbacks, after which
he purchased complete new suit of clothes
and took the cars for Milwaukee. While
on his way thither he managed to change
his garments, throwing his old clothes,
which were blood-stained, from the car
window. But the sheriff OF La Crosse
county, Mr.. ii. N. .Schoelberg, had obtained
a description of the man who changed the
money, and Immediately recognized Clear
as the criminal.
After searching through Wisconsin and
Minnesota, without success, Mr.. SchoelberS
came to this city, and, having procured the
services of officer Sherman, continued the
search. All efforts, however, were in vain,
and the sheriff was about to leave when he
happened, yesterday morning, to see par
agraph in The Times announcing that the
18th Wisconsin regiment had arrived in this
city. knowing that Clear belonged to this
regiment, he procured the services of officer
Sherman, who went to the Soldiers Rest
and found the murderer. On being con-
fronted with the sheriff the prisoner ex-
claimed "All right, boys; know what you
want" He was taken at once to the CEN
tral police station, where he confessed his
crime, but stated that the murdered man
had only $225, which he hadtaken and ex-
pended.
The prisoner is about twenty-five years
of age. His parents reside in Minnesota.

The inhabitants of La Crosse, Wisconsin,
were thrown into an alarming state of ex-
eitement, about the 1st inst, by the discoy-

The sheriff of La Crosse county set out in

The circumstances connected with the
case are briefly as sfollows: On the 3lst day
of December, German named Robert
Lange, who kept grocery store near vi
roca, Vernon county, Wisconsin, started
for La Crosse in sleigh drawn by a team
of horses. As he went for the purpose of
purchasing goods, he took with him all his
available funds, which, it is supposed,
amounted to about $500.
A young man named James A. Clear, be-
longing TO the 18th Wisconsin infantry, be-
ing about to leave for the field, asked per-
mission to accompany Mr.. Lange. The
latter assented and the twain started on
their journey. When about three miles
from La Crosse, the soldier seized an axe,
which was lying in the sleigh, and dashed
out the brains Of his unsuspecting compan-
ion. He then rifled the pockets of the MUIR
dered man and dragged the body out upon
the open prarie, about sixty rods from the
road, where he placed a couple of empty
beer kegs upon it, Mounting the sleigh
once more he drove boldly into the town;
and, having arrived there, stepped out Of
the vehicle, leaving the horses to go where
they pleased. The animals Immediately
proceeded to the hotel where their owner
had been accustomed tostop; and, the host
