A KEROSENE RENEDY.---The Folsom Ieie-

drag himself along with the aid Of crutches
The ordinary remedies failed to give him
any relief and lie gradually grew worse
Some person finally recommended the use
of Kerosene, lie first spplied il externally,
and found immediate relief and continued
growing better. At length he commenced
taking II internally until he accustomed
himself to two drinks day until he had
so Ear recovered as TO obtain the full use OF
his limbs. A few days ago he wheeled
wheelbarrow loaded from the station ut
Alder Creek TO the American rlver dis
tance of nearly hall mile. He attributes
his recovery alone to the use of kerosene,
and has thrown all other remedies t0 the
dogs. 'i'

nN-Wheeling Intelligencer says:-


R1- Wheeling Inlellisencer says
Provost Marsha General Fry is not
gaining any laurels that we hear Of in
any quarter by lis recent contradictory
estimates as to the quotas due from the
different States under The Presidents
last call. He is accused in several Of
the newspapers Of gross bungIiog and
laundering, and lh're is no assurance
that his latest revised statements Rre
reliable. Some Of The Eastern paper
contend that they are far from correct
and will be contested. The burden of
the complaint against him is that so lit

chief of his first announcements. This
complaint applies especially to districts
like ours, A month ago we were told
that only four men were expected ofus.

blow. 1t was not offered or passed as

nitea shape that expectations Of a spec
