A New and Grand Epoch in medicine.

A New and Grand Epoch i'm Medicine.
MR.. MAGGIEL is the founder Of q new Medi-
cal Systeml The quantitarians, whose vast
internal doses enfeeble the stomach and par
alyze the bowels, must give precedence to the
man who restores health and appetite, with
from one to two Of his extraor !inarV Pills, and
cures the most virulent sores with box or 80
of his wonderful and all-healing Salve. These
two great specifics of the Doctor are fast super
seding all the stereotyped nostrums of the day.
Extraordinary cures by MaggiePs Pills and
Salve, have opened the eyes of the public to the
inefficiency Of the( calledD remedies Of others,
and upon which people have SO long blindly
depended. Maggiers Pills are not of the class
that are swallowed by the dozen, and Of which
every box full taken CT Gates an absolute neces-
sity for another. One or two of MaggiePs
Pills sufees to place the bowels in perfect or
der, tone the stomach, create an appetite, and
render the spiritsiig and buoyant! There is
no gripping, and no reaction in the form Of con-
stipation. If the liver is affected its functions
are restored; aud if the nervous system Is tee
Bile, tits invigorated. This last quality makes
the medicines very desirable for the wants OF
delicate females. Ulcerous and eruptive dis
eases are literally extinguished by the disen-
iectant power of Maggiers Salye. In fact, it is
here announced that Maggiers Bilious, Dys-
pepttc and Diarrhea Pills cure where all
others fail. While for Burns, scalds, Chill
blains, Cuts and all abrasions of the skin Nag
giers SalUe is infallible. Sold by j.. MAG

On Sunday last, about P. NJ, fire
was discovered in the store of Williams &
Rosenthal, in the wooden block Of buildings,
owned by NJ. s. Weyer, on State street. The
alarm was given, and in a very short time
our energetic fire company was on the spot,
but the fire had rapidly increased, and before
it could be arrested, several buildings were
consumed The house occupied by Mrs Vor-
hees as millinery store was destroyed, but
the most other goods were saved. The houses
of Williams a. Rosenthal, J s Barield. s
Weyer and NJ Kaderl's shoe shop were con-
sumed. The only insurance was that of Will
liams & Rosenthal, for three thousand dol
lars, and ]. S. Barfeld, for three Thousand
dollars. R&
To the fire company, Of course, all praise
is due. The Federal soldiers stationed hero
as on former occasion, contributed materi-
ally to arrest the flames, and were appropri-
ately thanked by the Mayor for the hard
work and good will displayed. Many of the
freedmen, too, were conspicuous for their
daring and perseverance in battling with the
fiery element After the flames were sub
dued, several fist fights ensued, under the in
fuence of something stronger than water.
