CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE IN FAVOR
OF FHOsTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERs.

w. II. Reese, ealing druggist in Month
cello, ILL.,, in a letter Of June 6, 1868, writes to
this effect: Having sold Hostetters Bitters
for the past four years, cannot but speak OF
the article as being the best tonic and appe-
ttze' eItant During the egue season Of 1866
could not keep sufficient stock on hand to
supply my customers. In fact, your Bitters
cians prescribe it all over the Western coun-
try. Indeed, great many families think they
are not saJe without yonr invaluable tonic"
pJ..t "a. n. "ltherspoon, Esq, q magistrate of
April 10, 1868, that he has used the Bitters
constantly in his own family for the previous
Two years He He hrst tried the preparation when
we're attack of fever Before the first bottle
was finished he experienced remarkable
change for the better. He had tried brandy
at tho outset, but found that did him more
r. harm than good In one month from the timo
ne commenced using the Bitters his health,
strength and appetite were restored. He had
reco%mended the article to others in like cir
Sumstsncee, and never known it to fail, and
fever.
Mr.. Samuel Young, of Clarion, Pa, under
uate April g, 1865, certifes that he was COM
attacks OF dyspepsia that ever afflicted any
mortal" by throe bottles Of the Bitters, after
va various other remedies had proved power
less. less. Restored to perfect health, he thanks
tnat excellent preparation for the result"
- Dr. Ct. NJ. Spencer, of Brush Creek, Perry
county, Ala, writing thence February s, 1868,
says: II have used your Stomach Bitters for
several years in my practice, and find them
superior to most OF the Bitters now prescribed
by the profession generally" Oct te

The Murder on the Great Republicans
arrest Of Captain W, B. Donaldson,


Last evening Detective Biyliss and
Mr.. Achey, under orders of Chief OF
Police Rufin, who received a dispatch
from the Chief of Police of ST. Louis,
arrested Captain w. B. Donaldson, OF
the Steamer Great Republic, at the Spen-
Ger House, on the charge of murder
Captain Donaldson was arrested at ST.
Louis, some time since, and taken before
the court, on the charge of having muir
dered a negro who was acting as one of
the cabin crew on the Republic. The
particulars of the case we're fully reported
at the time. As no witness appeared
against Captain Dsnaldson, he was dis
charged
A few days ago q colored man, who it
is claimed can be used as States evi.
dence, was arrested in this city, and sent
to St. Louis. Captain Donaldson arriving
here, on his way to st. Louis, to join his
boat, stopped at the Spencer House, and
was arrested. As the orders were to re,
turn him to St. Louis, Captain Thomas
F. Eckert went his security, guarantee

NEw MEMPHIS THEATER. Ms. F. W.
Lander, the great American trsgedieDne,
made her final appearance for this sea-
son at the New Ne mphis Saturday after
noon in the splendid character Of Marie
Antoinnet,e." The house was filled by
a fashionable audience, and the per-
formsnce was well worthy Of such an at
tendance. During the week Mrs. Lam
der played Eve pieces, Adriennc, Mary
Stuart, Elizabeth, Marie Antoinne
aud The School for Scandal, and had
more than fair houses. She confirms
her reputation as finished actress, and
when she comes this way again, will be
welcomed by many who admire her style
and school of acting. Messrs. Taylor
and Bscks, who attend her, are fine
actors, especially Mr.. Taylor. Saturday
night the ladies Of the Episcopal church
gave series OF grand tabesux for the
benefit Of an enterprise they have in hand,
under the immediate direction of Mrs.
W. G. Thompson, and Notwithstanding
the rain fell in torrents, attended by
heavy thunder and vivid flashes Of light
ming, the house was fairly filled by a very
fashionable assembly. The exhibition
was brilliant artistic success, rejecting
infinite credit upon the skillful manage
ment Of Mrs. Thompson and the fine
taste Of ell engaged. Tonight Mr.. Proc
tor, the eminent actor, will open short
engagement, producing Nick Of the
Woods, and will probably be the last star
Of the season.
