dispatch from Fredericksburg, to the Richmond
Dispatch, says:
This community was thrown into great ex-
.itement to-day by news of one of the most
aorrid tragedies that has ever occurred in the
State The house Of Augustus Limerick,
about 3hree miles from this town, was burned
;ast night, and upon examination by the neigh.
0cr3 they found the burned remains Of Mrs.
Limerick in the ruins Of the building She
haG evidently been murdered After further
search she murdered body of Mr.. Limerick,
horribly mangled, was found quarter of
nile from the house, Money was no doubt
me object of the murderers. No clue to the
perpetrators of the bloody deed has been dis
covered. The murdered parties had no child
Gil. There is much excitement in the commu-
Hiy. Such murders are so uncommon in this
State and taken in connection with another
recent murder and some signs Of lawlessness
n this region of country, there is naturally a
feeling Of anxiety and disturbance of the pub
l:c mind No effort for the detection Of the
nlrderes Til be spared.

A STATIC CH O L E r A.
- PREVENTIVE AND CURATIVE.

The cause Of Cholera is always found in de-
ranged state Of the digestive fluids, particularly y
the bile which has been put in disorder by eli
matte or other atmospheric causes. The hillary
ducts are thus prevented from fulfilling. their
functions, and consequently the whole circula-
ton is thrown into disorder. The more ones
system is thus deranged by unhealthy eatablcS
or irregular habits Of living, the more easy will
we become the victims OF ASIATIC CHOL-
ERA. -.
Asiatic Cholera is terrible complaint; it
takes its victims with rapidity unknown to any
other malady; the slightest neg ect against san
itary rules is almost surely punished with death
Yet Cholera is curable, like other Diseases
and in this Elixir we possess a remedy which !. is
q perfect safeguard against it. Experience in
thousands of cases, particularly in 1850, in Ger
many and in the Cholera season jusst past IN
has proved the use of PROF. WUNDRUM'S 5
CHOLERA ELINIR the surcst preventive
against the malady. .-

j HUNDRED YEARS AGo.-A great many
a7ents occur in hundred years. Within that
line, America has leaped forth into the aston
;3hing power that it is. One hundred years
arc, says an exchange, there was not single
-!hite man in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and
illinois Territories Then, what is DOW the
most aourishing part OF America was as little
'':novn as the country round the Mountains OF
tie Moon 1t was not until 1869 that the
.urous Boone left bis home in Maryland to
become the first settler in Kertucky ~" The
:,rst pioneer in Ohio did not settle until twenty
years after this time \ hundred years ago,
Canada belonged to France. The whole popu-
Iation of the United States did not exceed a
million and half of people A hundred years
ago, the great Frederick of Prussia was per-
forming those great exploits which have made
him immortal IN military annals, and with his
little monarchy was sustaining Il single handed
contest WITH Russia, Austria and France
:he three great powers of Europe combined-
+. hundred years ago, Napoleon was not born,
and Washington was young and modest Nir
.ginp Colonel, and the great events in the his
tory OF the two worlds in which these two great
5ut dissimilar men took leading parts, were
then scarcely fore-shadowed. Ahundred years
