Mr.. HELMBoLD, (of Helmbold's Extract
Buchu notoriety,) of the drug store under the
Metropolitan Hotel, and his beautiful wife,
who are at the Union Hotel, Saratoga, ride in
one of the finest turnouts there. Not many
years ago he started in business on $50. He
has made the art of advertising the study OF
his lite; and owes bis success to printers ink.
The first year he came to New York, besides
the great amounts he expended on other news
papers, he gave $4,000 to three leading New
York dailies. Last year he expended SPA
O00 and over $780, 900 in posters, pamphlets,
etc, knowing that he would thereby establish
trade and reputation that would extend
through years, but little dreaming that nc
would make money the same year 80 quick
and so sure, however, are the returns from Ju
dicious advertising, that his receipts for tha
year exceeded his expenditures by about SIS;
600. The more money business man expena m
many fold its return, which nobody can deny

We had another alarm of fire yester-
day morning about half.past ten o'clock.
The cause of the alarm was as follows
A Mrs. Matterson, living in an alley be-
tween Sixth and Seventh streets, was
engaged in cooking, and in the, same
room, over the stove, were hanging
several articles of dress. By some mis-
hap a considerable quantity OF grease
was spilled npon the stove, which imme-
diately, took fire, and Large portion
ran upon the floor, all being in o blaze
The clothing hanging in the room there
took fire, when Mrs. Matterson cried for
help. A neighbor, a Mrs. Thompson,
hearing the cries, rushed into the house,
and as she went in, Mrs. NJ. threw a
bucket of water upon the floor, which
splattered the burning grease upon Mrs
Thompson, communicating the flames
TO her clothing Mrs. rs hands were
badly burned and also was her face, and
her hair was nearly all burned off hel
head. By the exertions of the neigh
,ors, the fire was soon extinguisAed. A
reel drawn by large number of boys
was on hand after the FIRE was all over
Mr.. Thomrlupson's wounds are not very

should be burned on the site of the

neighborhood, that it was finally con-
cluded to take them to East Wheeling
and there bury them. The people in
the immediate vicinity Of where the In
terment was intended to be made
raised an instruction against the con

all Monday night for the purpose OF
preventing any such proceeding. But

We learn from the Steubenyillle Her
aid that Mr.. John Drury,' clerk at the
Adams Express Compsny's office, at
Steubenville, met with q serious acct.
dent on Sunday afternoon. Mr.. Drury,
together with several other gentlemen,
were in q hand car at the time, coming
from the bridge on the P. G. & c. r. R.,
toward the city. The car came down
the grade from the bridge at sufficient
speed to allow the men to quit working
cranks. Mr.. Drury's hat blew off and
in his attempt to recover it, the revolt
wing crank struck him in the abdomen,
throwing him completely over the side
of the car, his foot catching in the
spokes of the car wheel. The car was
stopped almost instantly, but not before
the young mans foot and ankle had
been taken around several revolutions.
On examination, the tendons and mus
cles of the foot and ankle were found to
be badly torn. Mr.. ID. is doing as well
as can be expected from the nature OF
the wound.
