When disease has undermined the health,
and the physical system has become prostra-
ted, a stimulant that will not only strengthen
but remove the cause, should be immediate
Iy resorted to- Mentral distress is also
fruitful source Of the breaking down of the
constitution, and the ravages Of this enemy
to health are truly alarming For all such
maladies Hostetters Stomach Bitters have
been found unsurpassed. BY acting directly
upon the digestive organs, they remove the
heavy, disagreeable feeling after eating, so
often complained of by persons of delicate
temperament As soon as digestion is re-
stored the patient finds his strength in
creasing, and his general health improved.
Thousands of persons certify that it may
be relied on in all cases Of weakness or ner-
vous debility attendant upon sedentary hab-
its. The generality of Bitters are so disa-
greeable to the taste that they are objection
able to weak stomach. This Is not the
case wi. h Hostetters Bitters which will be
found mild and extremely pleasant Balsa-
mic plants, barks and roots contribute their
restorative juices to render it soothing and
strengthening. It's basis IS the only pure
/ stimulant which has ever been produced
containing no fpsll oil, or any other delete

residence Of our worthy postmaster, james
PYbass, Esq was entered by man sup
posed to be white or a bright mulatto, I'M
doubtedly for the purpose of robbery or
Something worse. The villain, whoever he
was, steathily entered the house before It's

About two clock he made his way to rear
room where the ladies were, and gently
pushed the door Of the chamber open; but
luckily the ladies' were not asleep, ana they
thinking that something was wrong, lit Il
candle and went out into the hall, ana there
disco cred the intruder endeavoring to hide
his face with the. collar of his coat. Mr.
Pybnss, who was sleepi"g in an adjoining
room, was called to by his daughter, and in
stantly the stranger made for the front door
and disappeared in the darku So Who he
was, or on what evil bent, no one knows;
but one thing is certain, his presence in the
sacred sanctuary Of Il private hom. at such

We call the attention of the public to the
fact that this reliable and well known firm,

now closing out their retail business fer the
purpose of engaging exclusively in the

are heavy dealers in all kinds of dry goods

We advise our friends and all others to
give them call when in the city, as it viii

j. r. Robertson and Mrs. Nourse, who
saw big fortune within reach by a put-up
humbug, have been most righteously disap-
pointed, and the people of Memphis are now
no longer annoyed by their miserable pre-
tensions, as the Brinckley College ghost has
been drowned in an ocean Of Lye, and the
Ku Klux have got possession of the jar and
sire now dividing the immense amount Of
gas it contained among the inmates of Ma
hooley's tavern, midway 'twixt hell and
Whiteoak All Jokes to the contrary, the
actors in this miserable farce should be fed
on green cheese and sharp sand for sixty
days, then melted down and run into glass
so that people might look at them darkly.
That would be natural BY way of giving
information, We will state the history ofthis
foolish scheme, which, undoubtedly, was
gotten up for no other purpose than to make
money.
Robertsons daughter, Clara, who was a
pupil at Brinckley College, asserted time
and again that she saw ghost; that it told
her the exact location ola jar which contained
valuable papers and treasures. On digging
at the place indicated, jar was said to have
been found-but it was put there by Mrs
NourSe; here Clara tainted "The jar"
said the ghost-what u agHopper-"must not
be opened for sixty days" Robertson
couldn't wait Sc long, and he modestly in
formed the public that it would be opened
at the Greenlaw Opera House, provided half
the proceeds-tickcts fifty ceats-were given
to Clara, the remainder to 90 to charitable
Institutions Last Thursday night was the
time set apart for uncorking the jar. I'm
fortunately for MIR. r. and Mrs. N, cards
appeared in the Memphis papers on Tues
day morning, signed by Mrs. Pickett and
Bishop Quintard, informing the public that
the charitable institutions would not coun-
tenance the show, or have anything to do
fraud. Without their aid the whole affair
would be q failure; now what was to be
done Word had been given that the jar
should be opened in public on the night of
the Both, and things were approaching a
crisis the Jar must be made way with. Ac-
cOTdingly, on Tuesday night this is hob
ertson's statement, and it's Just about as
sickly it well can be while entertaining
company, he heard Il noise in the back yard
and eXcusing himself, got up and went out
to see what was the matter, and when near
q woodshed was confronted by two unknown
men, who with pistols in hand, made him
give mp the jar and its contents; they then
grabbed him by the throat and knocked him
down just before beipg struck he says he
called to his servant Joe to come to him.
quick, and when Joe did come he found him
living upon the ground in a pool of blood
Here endeth the narrative.
We will 90 ore eye on the whole affair.
and wager Mr.. r. that he either knocked
himself down, or got Joe to do it for him,
and that as frst-class humbusgist he made
Il most ingIorious failure.
If the Bolivar ghost don't do better than
the BrinckIey scare crow, We'll get Umhaw
to mix liquor on him and get him as drunk
as billed owl, and then battle his head in
vinegar to take his ScareS away.
