Tire Arnbian Physician.

Eme. AruDf18 X ayst~h- = /.
1t is question always with the al
bficted to find some potent remedy iol
their ills, or some skillful physician Wht
can and will converse freely with taeH
in regard 70 their diseases. The Arabian
Physician is Just such a man. lie nan
won reputation that could only nave
been accorded to him through years Of
successful practice in curing diseases
No where has he been but what he mas
received the highest encemiums o.
praises from the press for the wonder
full cures he has effected, and in every
instance he leaves behind him q name
rejecting the greatest credit to his
marvellous abilities. One great secret
is that he is 50 plain in his converse
ton that no one can fail to understand
his explanations in every particular
and at the same time become thorough
ly acquainted with the disease they are
afflicted and the remedy to cure 1T. Ihls
is very important matter, for many
persons are treated for diseases that
they are not afflicted with and the rem
edies prescribed for them in such cases
only irritates the real cause OF then
complaint. His success is sufficient
guarantee that to all he promises relief
they will certainly have it as he pos
sesses thorough knowledge Of all dis
eases, which have invariably yielded
to his prescriptions. His office and con-
sultation rooms are at No. 12O and l2li
McLure House, Wheeling, West Virgin
ia, where he will be pleased to see all
persons requiring medical treatmsnt.

Lectures ON the Animal Kingdom

We are gratifed to learn that the
public is becoming much interested in
the lectures of Professor Ebell. The
subject was considered at meeting OF
the principals of tho public schools, at
the Office of the Superintendent, on Sal,
urday, and noticed especially yesterday
in most of the Sunday Schools of the
city, with a view to the general at,
tendance of their pupils.
These lectures promise to be among
those rare occasions wherein instruc-
ton is intermingled with pleasure,
alike for young and old.

4 Free Fight.

4 Free Fight.
In that locality, in North Wheeling,
where George Eckhart has his beer sa-
loon situated, was the scene of riot and
free fight on Saturday morning between
~ and / o'clock. The noise and disor-
der carried on in the said saloon at that
dead hour of the night so alarmed the
neighbors living in the vicinity that
they could not sleep. They thought that
the spirits of the internal regions had
conc and were holding q high and
bloody carnival at George Eckert's.
They were right in their surmises, for
the evil genius that presided over the
dozen or more men there collected set
them to fighting and bowling. In the
melee Joseph Donavin had his nose very
near chawed off, while one of the ears
of Michael MCGUIRE shared the same
fate. 1t seems to have been a terrible
conflict between bad spirits encouraged
by morbid desire to do marked injury
to those engaged. We have been I'M
able to get the names of all those pres
emit, and those that we give, Joseph Don
avin and Michael Mcclure, we presume
were the most unfortunate of the party.

New Sleeping Car.

New sleeping Car.
The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Com
pany have just put on their road one OF
those new and splendid palace sleeping
cars. 1t embraces a double row OF
berths and can accommodate forty-four
passengers very comfortably. The seats
are all elegantly furnished and orna-
mented with silver mounting, which
not only serves as matter of beauty,
but preserves them from the wear and
tear of rough usage. At each end
there is small anti-chamber; the
largest one can be used for sit
ting and smoking in, while gazing out
at tho country when travelling; while
the other one is used by the
brakesman. The greatest advantage
of these chambers consists III the
two doors connected with them, which
protects the passengers in the inside
from being exposed to the atmosphere
when ono is opened unless both doors
should be opened at the same time, but
there is never no occasion for that all
less at the desire OF passengers. The
whole arrangement seems to have been
gotten DIP with view for comfort and
ease and we feel certain that the effort
has been attended with success. The
name of the car is the Getty of Cum
berland," and it is under the charge of
Conductor James A. Fee. The Com
pany contemplate putting three or four
more on the road, one of which will be
called the Getty of Wheeling" The
present one will be open for inspection
next Wednesday afternoon.
