MEDICAL ADVICE-Dr. VIM. X. Doherty's
Medca and Surgical Institute sbecoming sine
gua non to the welfare Of our State and health
of our citizens; and his rapidly spreading reputa-
ton, although it may excite surprise, is but the
signal of skill, and follows nsthc natural effect
of such q cause. We are personally acquainted
with gentlemen who had suffered for years under
chronic disease, and who had taken advantage Of
every available means that promised relief. but
without success, until they called upon DR.. Do
herty, who in an incredibly short space oftime,
has given them entire relief. 1t is gratifying to
announce this fact, because the Doctor is a gen
tlcman who seeks, not by defamation of others.
to establish his reputation, or to rear the super
structure of hisown upon the ruin of another's
fame. The Doctor conducts his Institute in snch
a manner that mustbe gratifying to all his pa
tients. He examines, advises and rccommc nds
without charge, and the patient after hearing
his terms for treatment, can accept or reject at
pleasure. In no case does the Doctor make 4
charge unless he effects a cure. This, he is able
to do, because he feels the confidence which long
experience has given, and no doubt the consola'
ton which appertains to that confidence. Per
sons afflicted with eitheracute or chronic disease
would do well to consult the Doctor;at levcnts
IL can d o no harm, as for consultation he asks no
fee e:nor oes he insist on obedience to his advice
unless the patient places himself under his care.
His offices arc on Sacramento street, opposite the
Pacific MailSteamship Offices. +. News.

OUTRAGE IN THE COUNTRY.
Heavy Robbery nj Collier
vilIe-S9OO stolen.
An Invalid Clerk bound hand
and foot and nearly
Perishes.

The little town Of Collierville, on the
Memphis and Charleston railroad, was
the scene, durisg Tuesday night, Of an
outrage which caused the greatest ex-
element among the citizens Of that
usually quiet community. During the
night in question the store Of j. Q. Muir
daugh, Esq, was entered by burglars and
an extensive robbery Of money and goods
effected. The burglars, by placisg
ladder up to window in the second story
and pricing open heavy wooden blind,
managed to get into the building undis.
covered. Mr.. A. G. Wilson, a clerk in
the employ Of Mr.. Murdaugh, prostrasted
by sickness at the time, was sleeping be.
low, and the robbers. upon making
their way 10 his apartment, tied him fast
to the bed with ropes, and imposed
silence under threats of taking his life.
There being three Of the gang, one of
them remained with Mr.. Wilson with
pistol leveled at his head, while the other
two proceeded to consummate their me-
farious designs. They first repaired to
the safe in the front part Of the store,and
by using heavy iron bar brought along
for the purpose, they succeeded in forcing
the locks and appropriated $500 in
money, and large amount Of notes,
checks and other valuable papers. This
done, they next proceeded to load them
selves with the most valuable goods they
could discover, taking jewelry, pistols and
other. articles to the value Of about
FIVE handred dollars. Having thus accom-
plished their object, they returned eau
tiously to the second story descended
the ladder and made off with their booty
without raising the suspicious Of any
one except Mr.. Wilson, the clerk whom
they had bound to his bed and who was
compelled to remain 10 that condition
until morning, suffering the greatest pain
from the cords which we're cutting deep
into his wrists and ankles. Such was
his suffering indeed before he was dis
covered, that when Mr.. Murdaugh came
to his relief the next morning, he was
nearly insensible, and doubtless if not
timely relieved would have died. Upon
recovering sufficiently to speak he gave
a full account of the affair so far as he was
able, but was unable to give any de-
scription of the scoundrels which might
lead to their Identification, They had
taken the preoaution, as would seem
from his statement, to disguise them
selves by backing their faces and turn
ing their coats inside out. The affair is
still the occasion of much excitement in
the little town, and fears are entertained
that the same party are still in the neigh
borhood, and may at any time repeat the
outrage.

SUDDEN DaAru-CoRoSER's IsouEsr.
About five o'clock this morning, as Capt
simons, Of the Metropolitan Police, was
passing along Second street, on his way
TO tho First Diairict Station, he discey-
cred lying in the doorway Of one Of the
business houses in the jefferson block, 0
man whom he at frst supposed to be
drunk, but who on further investigation
he found 10 be- nearly dead with cold and
exposure. Helping the stranger to his
feet he then conducted him TO the
station, where be learned that he
had just been discharged from the
hospital, and not having sufficient money
Ia his possession to pay for lodgings be
had slept oil night in the doorway where
the Captain had discovered him. No
sooner scarcely had he given this simple
account Of himself, as he was seated by
the stove in the station-house, than he
suddenly fell back in his chair, made one
or two inarlieulate utterances and died.
His body was at once taken into another
apartment back OF the station, and upon
searching his clothes tor some article by
which he nigh, be identified, a bible and
memorandum-book we're found in one
Of his pockets, in the former of which
was written flames Hughes" and in the
latter flames Hughes & Co." Nothing
that could lead to further Identification
was found, and tits supposed that he was
stranger in the city. AT later hour
in the morning Esq. Gibson, summoniug
coroners jury, proceeded to hold an
inquest on the body, and verdict was
rendered in accordance with the above
facts. The appearance Of the deceased
would indicate that he had once known
much better days, while the writing in
the memorandum-book and on ay-leaf
of the Bible is in plain, clerkly hand.
