The Mobile Times, of the 8th, pays just and
eloquent tribute to the memory Of the late Dr..
Fenner, and says:
During his exile from New Orleans, Dr. Fenner
devoted all his time and his exalted science to the
assistance Of the Confederate soldiers and the bat
te7felds around Atlanta saw him perform deeds Of
passive yalor before which the b0dest feats of our
heroes sunk in perfect nothingness.
DR.. Feaner realized, in our view the ideal of
Christian and patriotic devotion and his loss is not
only that Of his family, but of the whole country
Under the quiet and unassuming appearance of the
simple man of science, DR.. Fenner possessed an
the fire and enthusiasm Of great and powerful
orator. We never shall forget an occasion when
he appeared before select Joint committee of the
Louisiana legslature. 1t was our honor to preside
and there, in opposition to that mpetuous and
often sublime orator, DIR, Thomas Hunt he kept
the whole committee under the charm of his elo-
quence for over two hours, with no other theme
than professional discussion on the subject of
admission to the dissecting room of the Charity
Hospital,
& DR.. Fenner leaves. amongst other children, our
friend aud distinguished lawyer, Capt Fenner, who
acquired such distinction as commander of Fen
ner's battery, during the late war.
10 him, the inheritance Of such name will be
safely entrusted.

SIR II take great pleasure in stating
that, after having suffered from dyspepsia
for about fifteen years, at some periods
much more than others, | have been entirely
cured by the use of Goes Dyspepsia Cure.
NV friends know that of late years nv case
was be N an extreme one. had great suf-
fering from eating any kind of food, and on
an average would vomit about one third of
my meals, in a sour indigestible mass.
When the severe attacks would come, |
would lose all strength and be utterly help
less. Some Of the attacks would be so
severe that for days together would no,
retain anything on my stomach, save q little
Try toast and tea. For years / knew not
what it was to pass Eve consecutive hours,
without intense pain. From the time took
the first dose of this medicine ceased
vomiting, gradually all soreness passed
away, and flesh and strength returned, and
ever since have been able to eat any kind
Of food set upon the table. Six months have
now passed without any symptoms of the
return Of the disease. Ny case was con-
siiered BY all, even physicians, so marvellous,
that for time IL was feared it might be
fictitious but am no " SO well convinced,
that have been, not merely relieved, but
permanently cured, thatI can conscientiously
recommend Goes Dyspepsia Cure to all the
Victims Of dyspepsia.

Bona FIDE GIFT CcNcRkE the
many Gift Concert enterprises now on foot
in this city, none are more worthy Of con-
sideration and patronage than the Bona
Eide" at LAG Dearborn street, Of which the
popular and well-known firm Of Clark 4
Saylor are the proprietors. They are bust
ness men, enjoying an extensive and envi-
able reputation in Chicago, which affords q
guarantee to those who buy their tickets
that their distribution Of prizes will be fairly
and impartially made In addition to their
large and first class selection of Diamonds,
Watches, Clocks, Jewelry, solid Silver and
Silver Plated goods, (the whole Of which i'm
mense stock is comprised in their scheme, }

the fashionable retail trade OF this city, and

upon the several prizes offered, are their re-
gular retail prices, and unless they dispose
Of all their tickets, we do not ste how they
are going to make any money ont Of the
operation. But that is their business, not
ours. Their tickets are selling fast, and they
do not intend to postpone their drawing,
which will doubtless occur on the 23d Of
May, ensuing. Capt Saylor aud his gentle
manly assistants may always be found ~
the counter, ready to show you the prizes,

War rs 4 ScAs' We have frequently
been asked the question what che meaning
Of the term rat" or 'scAb" Is, when applied
to n workingmanf The 6rst ID geaerAlly
used by printers TO those who work for less
than established prices, the latter Is applied
BY the followers Of other mechanical svoca-
tons to the same class Of men. We sup
pose the terms were originally applied be-
cause FRAT" was considered the meanest
of all vsTnin, at enmity with everybody and
everything; and we certainly know Of no
more emphatic phrase than "scab" to sx-
press utter loathing and disgust Webster
defines him as slow, mean, paltry fellow"
but this is not the correct meaning Of the
word as nov understood among those to
whorr II is applied "ras" or "scab" is
neither lore nor less than m animal in the
likeness OF man, without the soul q Great
ure without manhood, honor, self-respect,
or in fact possessing any OF the attributes
which distinguish man above the brute
creation. A rat is thing that will accept
any position no matter how humiliating,
demur to no terms which his owner offers
that licks the hand that smites him I; and 10
invariably afraid to look m honest man in
the face A scab.is, il possible more repul'
sive still He is one who thinks an employer
is the o1.iy one who ought to determine what
has workmen should receive, and is willing
even to pledge himself, to obtain . situation,
that he will not Join q union IS long as il is
offensive 50 to do. His epidermis is invul-
nerAble, as be IS equally . strAnger to shame
or manly independence. In short, . scab is
one who thinks half loaf is always better
than whole one, and is never attacked with
Conscientious scruples. But then it is just
to add that q scab is invariably botch, q
botch is generally jack Of all trades and mas
ter Of none, . burden to himself and nuis-
ance to the community, and we believe it is
this consciousness Of his utter worthlessness
which makes him shun the society Of civil
lied humanity. OF all creatures, therefore,
preserve US from contact with rat or a scab.
