LOCAL AFFAIRS.
PROBABLE HOMICIDE.
Sequel to the Stabbing Case--Mc-
Hugh Lying at the Point
of Death.

We gave in Tuesdays local colomn, an &C.
count of stabbing ARRAY in saloon up town,
on Monday evening, in which young man
named John McHugh received stab in the
left side, and John Brinnan cut in the back.
Brinnan was not much hurt, but it is feared
that McHughs wound will prove fatal He Is
very low, and at 10 O'Clock last night it was
feared by his physician that he would not live
He is lying at the saloon of Dennis Mccain,
on Wabashaw street, above Third.
McHugh is an unmarried man. His parents
who are aged people and dependant upon
him for support-live in the 4th Ward.
Joseph Casey, who is charged with inficting
the wounds upon McHugh and Brinnan, was
arrested on Monday night at boarding house
on Fourth street, near Robert, kept by one
Manall, and locked up in the CITY jail. His
brother, Cornelius Casey, was arrested the
same night and also locked up. The latter
was present at the time of the stabbing, and
took part in the quarrel and melee, but neither
of the wounded men seem tocharge him with
the stabbing. His own hand was badly cut in
the tracas.
The Caseys will be examined before the City
Justice to-day at two o'clock, on charge of as
saulting McHugh and Brinnan with intent to
do great bodily harm.

ATTEMPTING TO PROCURE FRAUDULENT
ExEMpr1oN.-Dr. J.. w. Dibb, of st. Anthony,
was brought before United States Commission
er Cardozo Saturday, charged with attempting
to procure fraudulent exemption from the
draft, for two men named Charles Kistner and
James Grattan. The circumstances alleged are
these: '- ''"
Charles Kistner came before the Board OF
Enrolment at this place, and claimed exemp-
ton for "Emphysenia." This is disease or
ailment caused by the ruptHre of the lungs, if
we may 80 term it, which allows the air to es.
cape, and puffs up the skin of the chest, by
forcing its way through the orifce, or bursted
place in the lung. Kistner seemed undoubted-
" afflicted in this manner, and was exempted
therefor. F
James Grattan, also of st. Anthony, af-
forwards applied for exemption on the
same grounds. When the surgeon, DR.. Stew
art examined him, he found that no EN-.
physemia existed, and that the skin had been
pulled up by artificial means. Grattan, finding
that the fraud was detected, at once confessed
the whole transaction.
He says that Dr. Dibb agreed to fix him aud
Kistner up, so that they could get exempted
aud that they were to pay him $50 apiece
therefor. He thereupon punctured the skin
over their chests, and by means of an air pump
forced air under the skin, SO as to produce an
appearance of Emphysemia That it was most
ingeniously and skillfully done, is shown BY
the fact that despite DR.. Stewards vigilance
and quickness to detect fraud, 1t well nigh sue
ceeded.
Kistner's exemption was at once annuued,
and DR.. Dibb was arrested. Kistner and Grat-
ton gave their testimony against him, aftel
hearing which, Commissioner Cardozo held
him to bail IN the sum of $500, for his appear.
ance before the next term Of the U. 8. District
Court.
The above forms another of those curious
cases of attempted fraud, which have from
time to tine been exposed In this district and
detailed in our columns. They invariably COME
tolight, in some why or other just as the case'
above noted have.
DR.. Dibb is physician of st. Anthony, Wit
has always stood well in his profession. he wa
Surgeon in Capt Fisk's Expeditions in 1856
and 1854. His pleasant good humor has al
ways caused him to be much liked by numez
Gus circle of acquaintances, who will regret +
hear of the serious charges against him. an
hope that he may be able to disprove them.

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

is constitutional disease, a corruption Of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst put
in disease on any part OF it. No organ is free
from its attacks. nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is yariousy
caused by mercurial disease, low living. dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all. by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution. descending /" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, ~
will visit the niquities Of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands. sweliings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption. which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life. SO that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks Of other diseases: conse-
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
CLIMATES the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofalous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys. brain,
and. indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofllous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health Is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate 1t by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in
