Editor Of Telegraph:
!. In reply to many letters and inquiries from
people In this ssection Of the country, the under
signed take great pleasure in saying through the
columns of your paper, that our renowned prep
aration, known as Goes dyspepsia Cure, is a cor
tain eurelfor Dyspepsia, in its worst stages
Many cures of long standing, within our own
acquaintance, have been completely, and we be-
licve permanently cured. 1t will stop distress
after eating almost instantanoously, and enables
the dyspeptic who has lived for years upon Gra-
ham bread and the plainest diet, to eat as heartily
as he pleases, and any thing hes chooses, without
danger of distress, or souring, orirising onsath
stomach 1t is an infalliblc corrector of indiges-
ton and constipation, creates q healthy appetite,
stops sick headache, heartburn, sickness at the
stomach, pains, cramps or cholic in either stom-
ach or bowels, and swcotcns offensive breath as
soon rs YOU take it, and by enahling the1patient
to take plenty of hearty food; (Which is the pa
rent, of ,healh," produces yigor, strength and
energy. In every trial we have known, it hns
speedily ciadicated Dyspepsia with all its attend
ant suffcrngs, weaknesses, debility and loss OF
power, giving instcad o proper activity and tone
to the stomach and organs of digestion, and as
we confidently believe, and as the published ceri
tifcatcs in our circulars, almanacs, and in many

.Procecd with Thy Elephant 2

lI .t
In Columbana county resides an old fel-
low renownetli for his btligerent disposition
who is generally Known as Friend Shavey.
Born and bred Quaker, he was long since
read out of meeting on account OF his quar-
relsome propensites, but still pertin1aclously
clings to the plain clothes and plain language
of his early days, possibly as. a, protection
against the wrath which he is continually
provoking by his over-bearlng and irritating
demeanor.8 He is always the owner OF the
crossest dog in the neighborhood, the most
troublesome, breechy steers, &c and is con-
tinually in hot water with some of his neigh
bors in consequences Of the depredlations com
mitted by his unrully live stock. A few weeks
since, Van Amburghs s, Managerie, travelling
through Columbiana, was obliged'to pass his
residence A little before daylight, Nash,
the keeper, Of the elephant Tippoo Slab, as he
was passing over the road with his elephant
discovered this pseudo-Quaker seated upon q
fence upon the roadside watching bull
awhich he had turned ont upon the road, and
which was paving, believing and throwing
up a tremendous dust generally, In fact
from the fury of the animals demonstrations
one would readily have taken him for one OF
the Identical breed tat buttcd the locomotive

Fake That bull out of the way shouted
Nash, as he approached. y ~ .j-u5 ~
Proceed with thy elephant was the re-
a4If you don't take that bull away he will
get hurt" continued Nash, approaching,
While the bull redoubled his beligerent de-
monstrations.
"Don't trouble thyself about the bull, but
proceed with thy elephant" retorted Friend
Shavey, rubbing his hand with delight at the
prospect of an approaching scrimmagc, the
old fellow having great confidence in the in
vincibility of his bull, which was really the
terror of the whole country around. 81
Tippo Slab came on with his uncouth;
shambng gait; the bull lowered his head
and made charge directly upon the ele-
phant. Old Tippo without even pausing in
his march, gave his cowcatcher sweep
catching the bull on the side, crushing in his
& ribs with his enormous tusks, and then raised
him almost thirty feet in the air, the bull
striking upon his head as he came down and
killing him instantly. ~
I'm afraid your bull has bent his neck a
little" shouted Nash as he passed on.
Bent the devil" cried old Shavey with a
troubled look at his defunct bull, "thy ec.
plant is too hefty for my BEAST but thee will
not make so much out Of the operation as thee
spposcs. l was going to take my family to
thy show, but will see thee and thy show
blowed to blazes before [ go one step, and
thee may proceed with thy elephant, and be
ID, please; the "please" being added
as Shavey took second look at the proper
ton Of the stalwart elephant keeper.

More Railroad Murders.

The New York World has the following
scathing but just comments on the recent
railroad disaster in Pennsylvania and New
Jersey, reported by the telegraph:
We are happy to chronicle another hideous
railway accident" happening this time in
Pennsylvania, but upon the road known as the
New Jersey Central Seven persons were
killed, most Of them being crushed out OF all
semblance of humanity, and many more
how many does not yet clearly appear-were
very horribly wounded and mangled.
This pleasing incident of travel occurred
yesterday; and the day before yesterday, an
incident fully as agreeable very nearly came to
pass on the Hudson River Railway, switch
man having "blundered" in adjusting his
switch, but the cars which were thrown OIL
the track upsetting in such way as not TO Kill
or even wound any of the passengers.
1t is perfectly idle to express indignation at
such accidents" as these in behalf of public,
which, it we are to judge by its apathy and inn
beclllty, rather enjoys the excitement OF run
ming the guantlet of sudden death on all its
daily journeys. To denounce the officials of
the roads on which human life is thus trified
with is the easiest thing imaginable; but as
such denunciation leads to absolutely no re-
suits, unless it be to fix sort of odium on
many decent people for the results OF sys-
tenn which all men are more or less response
bic for upholding, we see neither proprlety nor
good sense in INDUCING in it. There really
seems to be something Chinese in the stolid
Indifference of the average American to his
own life and the lives of other people, and un-
til this habit of mind can be changed the
press labors in vain when it seeks to make
the community comprehend either its rights
or its duties in regard to to comfort and Sc
curity on the great lines and highways of ma
tional travel.
