Man, named PAUL FEAUX, repre-
n senting himself as Piano Tuner and
Repairer, understand, has been travelling
through Ohio under various ALIASES" and
pretending to be employed by me. This is to
warn the public against engaging him upon
my responsibility. as he has never been con-
nected with my house in any way. About
two years ago this man stold Tuning Ham
mer from me, or rather borrowed and never
returned it. This is the ONLY BUSINESS he has
ever done for me.
Persons having Pianos at Woodsfeld or vi

CARD.

Editor of Spirit of Democracy:
In reply to many letters and inquiries from
people in this section of the country, the I'M
dersigned take great pleasure in saying
through the columns of your paper, that our
renowned prep aration known as GOES DYS-
PEPSIA CURE, is a certain cure for Dys-
pepsia, in it's worst stages. Many cures OF
long standing within our own acquaintanc,
have been completely, and we believe perma-
nentlv cured, II will stop distress after
eating almost instantaueously, and enables
the dyspeptic who has lived for years upon
Graham bread and the plainest diet, TO eat
as heartily as heartily as he pleases, and any
thing he chooses without danger of distress,
or souring, or rising on the stomach. 1t is
an infallible corrector of indigestion and con-
stipation, screates healthy appetite, stops
sick headache, heart burn, sickness at the
stomach, pains, cramps, or collie in either
stomach or bowels, and sweetens offensive
breath, as soon as you take it. and by cnab
ling the patient to take plenty of hearty food
which is the parent of health" produces
vigor, strength and energy. In every trial
we have known it has speedily e.adicated
Dyspepsia with all its attendant suferings,
weaknesses, debility, and loss of power, giving
instead, proper activity and tone 10 the
stomach and organs of digestion, and as we
confid antly believe, and as the published GER
ti6cates in our circulars. almanacs, and in
many of the leading Journals, from conval-
escent patients will CONFIRM, completely, Per-
manently, and almost miraeulously "cure the
worst case of Dyspepsia in existence"
warrant it in every instance. 1t can be OBJ
tanned at all the Drug Stores in the United
States aud Canadas, at S1,o0 per bottle, or
six bottles for $500.

Trial Of Conspirators.

WASHINGTON, May 20.--The interest
III the conspirators' trial does not abate
in the least. The court. room was crowd
ed to its utmost capacity to-day. The
developments were of a startling charac-
ter. A large number Of ladies were
present, as, also, an increased delegation
representing the press.
There was nothing unusual in the ap'
pearance and conduct Of the prisoners
Nearly all Of the evidence taken to-day
related mainly to the connection Of the
rebel authorities in Richmond with those
in Canada. A cipher found in Booths
trunk was compared with one obtained
by Assistant Secretary of War Dana, in
Richmond, and proved to be the regular
cipher Of the government. A translation
was made, showing that the secret writ
ing which was found related to the Press
idential election. Nothing was developed
from it alluding to the conspiracy. though
it demonstrated, beyond all doubt, that
Booth corresponded with the rebel au.
thorities. ''
The teller of the Ontario Bank, oi
Montreal, was called, and testified that
Jacob Thompson kept large deposits Of
money there, but had lately drawn them
out. The bank accounts were presented
in court. He also testified to Booth S
purchasing exchange at that bank, and
stating that he wanted it to run the block
ade with,
The Court then went Into secret ses-
sion. All of the reporters and specta.
tors were required to go out, only the
prisoners and counsel remained. The
evidence taken is supposed to refer to
the completely of the leading rebels with
this conspiracy. g.ga q
The defense has summoned large
number of witnesses, and it is thought
that the trial will lastoat least two weeks
more. The Government has not con-
C luded the main evidence yet, and will
probably present rebutting evidence after
the testimony for the defense has been
heard. saH
