A. S. Cox, native Ohioan, and brother
of the Hon. S. 5. Cox, died recently in
Washington. OF the deceased, the Inteli-
gencer says:
The announcement of the death of A. S.
Cox, ESQ., will fill with regret the many
friends who had been won by his sterling
qualities and manly virtues. He has been
a resident of Washington for twelve years
past, and was well beloved by all who knew
him. Genial in disposition. gentle and un-
affected in manner prompt and energetic
in business, and the very soul of integrity.
he inspired everywhere, as he deserved,
warm and devoted friendships among inti-
mate acqnaintances, and implicit conf
dence among those with whom he had
business relations. For several months
patient sufferer, he sunk last evening vic
tim to consumption. Among the bereaved
mourners presentat his release from earthly
pain was the Hon. S. S. Cox, so well and
tavorably known here. There are many,
indeed, of our citizens who sympathize
with him in his bereavement.

This new Compound, prepared by a prac-
teal Chemist having a full knowledge of
all the medical virtues of each ingredient
that enters into its composition, is warran-
ted to exceed anything Of the kind yet Of
fered to the public as an external applica'
tion for the diseases for which it is recon-
mended. We are satisfied that it will work
its own road into the confidence Of all who
use it, and those who try it once will never
be without it, and therefore we rely on eX-
pcricnce as the best test of its usefulness.
II is pronounced by Farriers, and all who
have tried it to be the best application ev-
er used. This Embrocation has been put
up for over eight years, and it is only
through the increasing demand and urgent
request of my friends and the Public that
send it forth as the grand remedial agent
for the various diseases to which that noble
and useful animal, the HORSE, is subject.
Many remedies have been offered to the
Public under different forms, some of these
are Injurious, others at best of little use,
and many wholly improper to answer the
purposes for which they are recommended
\ iudicious and really useful composition
free from those objections, has therefore
long been desired by many gentlemen who
have valuable horses, and are unwilling to
| trust them to the care of designing and
| pretending Farriers. Their wishes are at
| length fully gratfed, by DR.. Beale being
prevailed upon to allow this valuable EN-

L VIZ MDSI hbLlABLE IUSulON used
on Billiard Tables is the
CAT-GUT CUSHION,
Manufactured by Kavanagh & Decker and
patented Dec 8, 1866. (See Scientific Am
erican, volume l6, number H.
1t is the ONLY Cushion that possesses
all the qualities essential to perfect Cush-
ion. II is the most elastic and most durable
Cushion ever offered to the billiard-playing
public, as is abundantly proven by the
great demand for it since fits introduction
The peculiarity which distinguishes the
CAT GUT Cushion and renders it superior
to all others, is the frightened cord of cat
gut which oyerlies the face and edge of the
rubber, and running the full length of the
Cushion, which prevents the ball from bed
ding into the rubber and jumping from the
table. The addition of the cat-gut cord
also adds much to the elasticity Of the Cush'
ion.
The CAT-GUT Cushion has already been
applied to over 1000 tables which are in
constant use. 1t can be applied to tables
OF any make, for S75 per set.
