Or to HooE & WEDDERBURN,
DR.. schenck,s pu,monic Syrup.

HIS great medicine cured Dr.. J. II. lSCHENCK,
the Proprietor of Pulmonary Consumption,
when it had assumed It's most formidable aspect,
and when speedy death appeared to be inevitable.
His physicians pronounced his case incurable,
when he commenced the of this simple but
powerful remedy. His health restored in a
very short time and no return Ofthe disease has
been apprehended, for al! the symptoms quickly
disappeared, and his present weight is more than
two hundred pounds
Since his recovery, he has devoted his attention
exclusively to the of Consumption and the
diseases which are usually complicated with it;
and the cures effected by his medicines have been
very NUMEROUS and truly wonderful. DR.. Schenck
makes professional visits to several Of the larger
cities weekly, where he has a large concourse of
patients and it is truly astonishing to poor
sumptiyes that have to be lifted out of their car
riagas and in few months healthy robust persons.
DIR. SCHENCK'S PULMONIC' SYRUP, SEA
WEED TONIC, and MANDRAKE PILLS are
generally all required in curing Consumption.
Full directions accompany each. so that any one
can take them without seeing DE-. Schenck, but
when it is convenient it is best to see him. He
gives advice free, but for thorough examination
with his Respirometer his fee is three dollars
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two
licensees OF the Doctor-0ne Whenin the last stage
Of Consumption and the other as he now is, in
perfect health--are on the Government stamp.

Conservative Convention.

1t is suggested that the Conservative voters

Der, (being court day. for the purpose of
nominating candidate for the State Conven-
ton, at the election to be held on the 22d inst
We cannot 100 earnestly urge upon the con-
sentative citizens Of the county constituting
at least three-ftts oft the whole population, the
Importance Of a thorough organization for the
contest. The mongrels have held their con-
venion and nominated their candidate, and we
would be traitors to ourselves and our coun-
try, if we failed to perform our duty at this
critical juncture in our affairs
Let US have full representation from ev-
cry magstelial district in the county, and let
us nominate man who will reflect in his acts
the sentiments Of the large majority of our peo-
pie. Let US have a man who will carry out in
good faith the great work of reorganizing our
State Government SO as to conform it to the
new order Of things, but who will not place
upon us any additional disabilities, as will in
evidentably result if the Convention should be
under the control of the mon rels. If any man
is afraid to meet the great responsibilities Of
the crisis, let him stay at home his presence
would only retard the work But let every
one who feels that he is MAN. and is not
afraid to contend for the right, come and par
ticipate in the proceedings Of the proposed
meeting.

Several TheftS

Were comm;ttedin our town last week. Ducks,
chickens, clothing, cabbage, fruit, pigs, bread,
corn, &C., were 'captured" and carried off
from the gardens, lots, stables, smoke, houses,
cellars and dwellings Of various parties, by
some unknown midnight providers. As our
citizens generally, at least of the Caucasian
persuasion, aud most Of the colored people ''to
the manor BORN are probably employed and
make their living in an honest way, these depre-
dations ere no doubt committed by set of
imported idlers who are lying around loose,
having ''no visible means ofsupport." Eschew-
ing honest labor, and not having the aid Of the
blessed Bureau, their only chance for living
is to steal from the induatriou working nor
ton Of the community their hard earned pro-
visions. There is bat one remedy for this evil
and every man who is not disposed to submit
to these thieving operations must adopt it

To the Friends of the Herald.

we return our sincere thanks to our many
friends for kindly Offices in endeavoring to ex-
tend the circulation Of the Herald. The great
strength of Democracy is beginning to speak
IN numbers upon our book. Every day we are
called upon to enter ''actite mens' names upon
our issue roll Ralicalism is now putting on
bold front,-the Herald has become its spe-
cial mark for attack, and mean, low, dirty,
funny, sheet, published in foreign county,
has been voted the organ of the Radical-rump-
ist convention of this county. Will the friends
OF conservatism do less for the Herald that has
pledged itself and all it's interest to war upon
this infamous faction of disunionists? We prom
Use to make this coming election campaign
rather lively, and want every conservative man
who feels that he has any interest in the sue
cess of white men, to sustain the Herald, which
has been pledged emphaticaly to the interest
of white men. 1t is not only the pecuniary
interest of the Herald that is at stake. but the
principle Of sustaining q paper that has been
openly and avowedly acknowledged to be the or
gan Of Conservatism in Shenandoah, and for that
very reason has called upon it the bitter de-
nunciations of the traitorous Radical party and
their persistent effort to discontinue and sup
press it.
We are determined that every vhite man
shall have the opportunity to take and read the
Herald. It's cost is but a trihe. If you have
not the money, how easily you can spare few
bushels Of potatoes, or corn, or a few pounds
of meat, or if you have nothing else send us
some wood to keep orr ink running this win
ter, and we promise to keep you posted in the
nefarious yilliany of this hell-begotten party
who have coveted you of your possessions, and
are trying to rob you, before they would MUIR
der you. But thank God, their doom has been
written-and we want to stand on the out posts,
ready to tell you of your deliverance.

The new system Of Advertising adopted by Geo.

The following extract from a speech delivered
before the n. Y, State Editorial Convention (late-

least acknowledges its advantages.

'Mr. Pettingill spoke in opposition to that plan
from the publishers stand point alone. He show
ed the publishers that by this system Of contract

their own home customers or others equally as
prompt and good customers ; that they were sell
ing one portion of their paper to be used to COM
pete with and unde1bid the other columns that
the owner Of the space thus sold could come right
in and beat the publishers prices and take his bus

understanding this, still wished to continue so ir-
regular and unbusiness-like system he (Pettin-

Startling Affair.

A few days ago our little village was thrown
into an unusual excitement. AS our attention
was called to the affair, from our sanctum door.
we saw men, women, and children running
through the street with the most marked ex
preston Of excitement; and one poor old ne
gro woman, taking the mania, dropped her wa
bucket at the town well, and as she run up
the street, by our Office door, we jumped out
upon her, and Selling her by her streaming
shawl, we called upon her to tell us the cause
OF the terrible excitement, when with the great
est mochelance she screamed out at the top of
her voice, ''let ME 60 CLOVER & CoFFMAN

stating the above circumstance, were informed
that their stock was So extensive, that they
would have enough to supply every demand.

4 Corn Thief Caught.

IN these piping times of political excitement
and demonstrating OF rebel States, and the
like, perhaps some Of your readers would relish
the particulars Of the capture Of notorious
corn thief, as they were related to me by one
Of the parties.
Lieut.. ?. II. Snarr, of Hardy county, disco
vered that his cornfeld was being deprecated
upon pretty extensively, and he therefore de
termined to catch the intruder. There was
peculiarly about the footprints of tbs I'M
prncplied rogue by which he was identified
beyond the shadow Of doubt. He had s4lec-
ted certain place whore he would ge over the
fence into the cornfeld Procuring a trap
weighing about twenty pounds, such as is used
by hunters for catching bears, wolves, foxes,
and other nocturnal depredators, he set it at
the proper place, inside the corn6cld, and pa
tiently awaited the result. 4 heavy log chain
was securely fastened to the trap, so that, if
the thief attempt to drag it away, he could be
traced by the trail left behind. Next morning
the trap WAS gone. 1t had been stolen ana
carried away during the night, with the valu
able log chain attached-~thus compromising
the theft. A company, consisting of three
men and four boys, armed with four rifles, one
double barrel shot gun, and che sixshooter,
with two dogs and mule, started in pursuit
of the absconding violation Of the law He was
traced to the top Of the mountain, when the
dogs were put upon his trail. Away they
went, laundering down the mountain, dogs
opening beautifully, the thief running ct the
top of his speed, and the trap and chain rat
ting over the rocks. Finding that he could
not escape, the villain halted and made battle
with the dogs. In the mean time the pursu
ing party came up, and having summoned the
enemy to surrender, and he refusing they
turned his tanks, right and left, and broke
through his centre in the twinkling OF bed
post. By this grand military movement the
enemy was soon hors dit combat. He was NOR
tally wounded, his sinful body having been
pierced by four leaden bullets; and in order
that he might die easy, since he must die, his
throat was cut from ear to ear. 1t was huge
black bear, which, after being dressed weigh
ed one hundred and sixty pounds G.
