NOTICES.
Caution-Audacious Counterfeit.

Ths reputation which, for many years, hiss
| attached TO "Hostette1's Stomach Bltters,' as
the STANDARD Tonic OF TIE AGE, and The
large demand for the article, not only III the
United Stale but elsewhere, have provoked
the cupidity Of the coUN1EaFElTING TRIBE.
and it has been extensively SIMULATED snd
INITIATED by unscrupul) us sha, pors.
The most daring counterfeit vi said Article,
which has been ATTEMPTED. hiss recently como
to our knowledge. The engraved steel label on
bottles containing the genuine bi;tcrs, with lis
beautiful vignetle Of st. George erc the dragon,
it's shield, containing Il warning against coun-
terfsiters, AMI its note Of hand for cone cent
at the foot, signed with our firm name, has been
copied SO closely, that the fraud can only be de-
tected on 8 minute inspection. The dark label
is also we'll counterfeited, and the wording on
both the imitation and genuine, are precisely
the same, the difference being simply in the
execution OF the work that of the imitation
being somewhat coarSer than the genuine -
Other counterfeits are on the market, which
are in all particulars the same as described
above, with the exception of q slight difference
in the spelling of our name.
In nd 1ition to the above, these countertelters
have gone So far in some instances rs to place a
strip of paper ovor the cork and fasten to tn"
neck oflhe bottle, on which is . vlsnette, and
other wise printed to resemble the general ap-
pearance Of our proprietary u. s. Revenue
stamp, but upon inspection will disclose the 40
sence OF tn. figure a." and the words -four
cents" also United States Internal Revenue"
all OF which, together with additional wording,
appear on our genuine stamp. The pubic are,
therefore, especially warned against lheso ne"

THE GRAVE OF OscEoLA.--In the last num-
Der of Lestie's Illustrated Nc,cs, appears sketch
of the grave of Osceola, the Indian chief, near
the walls of Fort Moultrie. Accompanying
the sketch is an account of Osceola's life and
death, from which we gather that he was thir,
ty-six years of age at the time of his death, and
during his life had slain large number OF
white persons in the glades of Florida. His
father was az Englishman named Power, and
his mother the daughter of Cherokee chief
tain. While on visit to an American fort,
she was seized and sold as slave. This arous-
ed the anger of Osceola, and from that time to
his capture, he waged bitter war against the
whites. On the 23d of October, 1897, while
holding a conference with General Jessup, near
St. Augustine, he was seized, with number OF
his followers, and taken to Fort Moultrie, where
he was closely confined until his death. Osce-
ola died as he had lived, a hater of the race
from which his father had sprung. He lay on
the couch in the cell assigned, and with a
frown as dark as cloud on his not unhand-
some face, he folded his arms across his ample
chest, and thus his spirit passed quietly away
to the happy hunting grounds of the Seminoles,
where his braves were impatiently awaiting his
presence.
