THE WAR, ITS EFFECT IN THE
CITY.-The war news circulated in the
JOURNAL Extra, produced great ex-
citement in the city yesterday. and
formed the chief topic of conversa-
ton.
Of course each side has it adherents,
but the friends of Prussia are by far
the most numerous; in fact, the
friends of France may be numbered
as the Irishmen reckoned who were to
accompany him to the wake.
THE two Shaughnessy's that's wan,
an meself that's two; but who the
divil was d'other?"
After Frenchifying a couple of
names, list of Frenchmen was made
out, on which Mr.. Patrick Burke
figures as Mons. Patrique DeBurque
Patsey Delany as Patrique De LAM.
and Philip Klein is transformed into
Philippe Petit. A legion has been
formed among the above named, with
John G. Schweizsr, who figures as
Jean G. LaSuisse. Conanaissaire de

LETTER From A BEREAvED Pa
RENT.-We have been shown private
letter from DR.. d. G. Jaquess, of
Helena, to his brothers in this city,
giving the sad details of the melan-
choIy accident by which he was be-
reft in a moment of both his boys.
On Friday of last week. the two sons
of DR.. Jaquess, in company with an
other boy, went out upon a bar in the
Mississippi. near Helena, to hunt tur-
tie eggs. After having secured mum
Der, and when ready to return, they
concluded to go in swimming; one or
the boys stepped off a bluff edge OF
the bar and was drowning when his
brother leaped in to rescue him and
both sunk together. The body of
one was recovered in two hours,
and that of the other after four
hours, The feeling of the father may
be imagined, but not described as
when reaching the scene of the aeci-
dent, he found the garments of his two
precious bOys-the hope and pride of
his household-lying together, and
by them a handkerchief full of turtle
eggs. The boys were promising
youths, esteemed and admired by all
who knew them, and devotedly loved
by their parents and their only sister.
On Sunday morning they were placed
in one coffin wrapped 10 each others
arms, and followed to their single
grave by almost the entire population
of Helena, while every church bell
in the city was tolling sad requiem
over the melancholy event. We cannot
conceive of a moIe painful incident
than the one We have just reported.
and are not surprised to learn that
the mother and sister are almost in
sane with grief, while the fathers
heart is wruDg with anguish that
knows no utterance.

AN INVOLUNTARY TREAT.-A re-
tail grocer on First Street uncon-
sciously treated his friends to cigars
on Thursday evening in the following
manner:
The grocer. who, for the present,
shall be called-well, Billy will do as
we'll as any name, has clerk who
is interested in the ice business,
and Billy seeing him take a Fifty
cent stamp for ice, as he supposed,
said, Come, John, be liberal for
Once, and spend that half for cigars
for the crowd"
All right. said John, and accord
ingly he laid out the stamp in weeds
that were distributed to those assem-
bled at the grocer's door. Billy took
one with the rest, and after putting
awhile, asked
Who did you sell that ice to,
John?"
"Ice?" exclaimed John; L didn't
ssll any ice; 1 sold fifty cents worth
of your table salt, and that was your
treat"
The roar that greeted Billy's ears
rather startled him for moment, but
deeming the joke good one, he join
ed in the laugh with as good grace as
the rest.

thrown by Capt. Trover. The boats

B BLOOD!
Look Out for Its 1mpurlty
FE YER AND DEATHf.

The health of the body depends
in great measure, upon the purity
of its fluids. The blood is the funda.
mental principle of every organ. II
is so, so to speak, flesh, cartilage, bone
and muscle, In liquid form. and i'm
pure blood can no more be solidifed
into sound animal substances than
any of the actual poisous can be con-
verted into wholesome food"
1t the life current that runs through
the veins and arteries is contaminated,
something more than tonic is required
to restore the vigor of the debilitated
invalid. Then how can the fiery de-
coctlons known as bitters, which are
only weak tinctures heated up with
Guinea-pepper affect this great cur
rent of life. the blood, especially
when they contain nothing in common
