A TERRIBLE FArE.-The following story,
terrible in its brevity, is told by the Provi-
dence, r. l. Journal: A fisherman of Hull
Mass, won't the other day, in his boat, as
usual, and while on the bay dense fog came
up and hid the shore and all surrounding
objects. Taking his oars to pull towards
home, he unfortunately took wrong course,
and his boat soon stuck fast in mud bank,
from which be could not start it. He then
attempted to wade to the shore, but the mud
held him fast until the incoming tide over.
whelmed and drowned him. His cries, at
first strong and earnest, and anon piteous.
were heard on land, but as the fog was dense
and impenetrable. he could not be seen, and
no aid came to him. His body was found
next day standing erect where he had met
his fate, rigid in death, with his garments icy
and stiff inclosing him.

Caution to the Unfortunate.

Beware of the San Francisco quacks and pre-
tenders who, with bogus sworn-to certificates, dupe
the unwary. Some of the selfstycd doctors,
whose names are to be found in tue daily and
weekly newspapers of San Francisco and other
places, are tradesmen and became too lazy to work
at their trades. Some tinsmiths, shoemakers,
newspaper carriers, intelligence Office Keepers &C.
Look over the San Francisco directory and you
will not find their Medical Institutions in it. Look
at the Directory for 1862 and 1868. The only way
to avoid imposition is to make inquiry-it will cost
you nothing, and may you many regrets for,
advertising physicians in eight cases out of ten
are bogus, there is 10 safety in trusting any of
them until you know who and what they are Dr.
Gbbon does not deceive people by exhibiting bogus
titles certificates, pretended patients letters &c.

A, MILITARY SNoB.-A good story is told
of certain Colonel, in the late war The
aforesaid Colonel was riding in a stage coach,
with several other passengers. when he acci-
Gentally dropped his hat outside of the coach.
Putting his head out of the coach window,
he exclaimed, in a steltorian voice:
. Charioteer, pausel have lost my
ahapeau."
The driver paid no heed to the demand
Again the pompous fellow authoriatively
spoke:
g Charioteer, pause have lost my
chapeau."
No attention being paid by the driver to
this command, plain, blunt man, who had
become disguised with his fellow travellers
Stiffness and pomposity, put his head out Of
the window and said:
"Driver, hold on this id fool has lost
his hat"
This was perfectly Ineligible to the dri-
eer, expletire and all, and the hat was
secured.n

A BRAVE FELLow-An instance of great
heroism on the part of young man, Captain
Wm. hickman, is related in the Newfound-
land papers as having occurred at Labrador
during the violent hurricane of October 9th
last. A vessel called the Sea Slipper had
struck on a reef near a place called Spotted
Islands, Labrador, at which were no resi-
dents. This young man, Captain Jackman,
being providentially in the neighborhood,
witnessed the vessels striking, saw her fall
asunder, with q number of persons on her
deck and rigging-twenty- seven, as it after
ward appeared. To save some of these poor
creatures, Mr.. Jackman cast himself into the
sea and swan to the wreck, hundred faith
oms or more from the shore. The hurricane
at this time was at its height. accompanied
by snow. Eleven times did this heroic man
swim between ship and shore, each time
bringinga man from the wreck and placing
him in safety By this time persons from q
neighhoring settlement had arrived with
ropes. Sixteen trips more did the noble
sailor, make, conducting all the survivors in
safety to the shore. Captain Jackman, like
alltrue heroes, is said to be as modest as ht
is brave, and when spoken to on the subject
will not allow that he did anything NOR,
than his duty. Application is to be made OF
his behalf, by the Magistrate of the district
to the Royal Humane Society, for its goll
medal, which will undoubtedly be prompt,
granted.

Seminal WeakneSS.-A sworn to Certificate
of most remarkable cure of Spermatorrhea
A desire to benefit humanity, and a feeling of
gratitude to DR.. W. X. D0HERTY, alone induces
me to make this statement. For many years / had
been afflicted with that fearful disease known as
" Spcrmatorrhea," i" or seminal weakness, the result
of self abuse, but till 1856 experienced but little
trouble or inconvenience; in that year, however, 1
had seminal weakness to fearful extent which
followed by the most alarming symp-
TOMS as weakness of the back and limbs, pain in
the head, dmness Of vision, nervousness and gen.
eral debility. My mind, too, was affected to such
an extent as to seriously impair my memory, my
ideas confused and spirits depressed. 1 was
to society, had evil forebodings and self
distrust, and entirely untitled for any of the
duties of life. From 1855 to the summer of 1868,
/ employed the very best medical talent | could
fnd and spent several hundred dollars, but in no
instance obtained more than temporary relief. l
had about concluded there was no relief for me in
this world, but reading Dr. Dohertys advertisement
l thought should call and see him, as he charged
nothing for consultation / had an interview with
the Doctor at his Office, in Sacramento street, and
his fee for treatment was so reasonable, deter
mined to try him, though 1 did not expect much
benefit from his treatment On the 9TH day of
December last, placed myself under his care; in
week found myself very much improved; and
now, after five weeks treatment, feel myself tho
roughly cured of all my troubles and in the enjoy
ment of the best of health. Hoping that my expo
rience may be of benefit to others similarly afflicted
