outside of the pale Of true burlesque, and those
who wish TO understand what the genuine Arti-
Gle il should see Mr.. John Brougham personate
"Shyleck" In his Much Ado About a Merchant
Of Venice. This piece is equal to the best Of
Mr.. Broughsms burlesques, and although a
cruel travesty on Shakespeare, the most
devoted admirer of the 'dvne
Williams, as the Frenchmen call him, will par
don the author for his irreverence for the sake
Of the genuine wit and humor with which it
overnows. Mr.. Broughams "ShylOck" is sa-
vagely in earnest, and there is a real tragic
power about portions OF 1t that only serves to
enhance the ludicrousness of the situations in
which the unhappy jew is placed and the conf
cal language in which he bewails his wees. Mr.
Brougham played this part with great success at
the Walnut few seasons ago, and that it is en-
tirely to the taste of the public is proved by the
laughter and applause bestowed upon it last
night at the Arch.

Cheering Facts for the Bilious.

Every day demonstrates more clearly that
liver complaint in all its distressing forms, can
be controlled and cured without difficulty or in
convenience. 1t is an obstinate disease, bur its
obstinacy is not proof against the pertinacious,
remedial and restorative operation of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, That genial corrective
compets The organ TO IT'S duty. 1t must secrste
regularly and healthfully under the influence of
the Bitters. Their action brings back from
state of rebellion into perfect harmony with the
laws of health. If there is costiveness, it disap
pears if there is side.ache back-ache, it
ceases if the skin and the whites of the eyes,
are tinged with superfuous bile, they recoveo
their natural hue; if the appetite is gone, il re-
turns If the digestion is impaired it is restored;
in brief, whatever the symptoms of complaint
may be. and whatever the phase il has assumed
cure is ,eftdin. Such are the uniform effects
of this preparation where bilious disease has
been already developed; but in cases where,
there is merely constitutional tendency to liver
complaint. it may be prevented throughout life
by the regular USE in small quantities, OF this
palatable antidote. These proven facts and
should be seriously pondered--or, rather, they
should be promptly acted upon-by all persons
of bilious habit.

ATTACKED III A BEAR.


y Peoria correspondent of the Al
bany Register gives the following parti,
culars of the attack of bear upon a
young lady of that place recently:
"0n the evening of the 2nd inst,
young lady of this place bad gore a
short distance from her fathers house,
carrying light in her hand, when she
was startled BY low growl, and noise
which resembled the football of some
heavy animal approaching her immedi>
ate vicinity Being startled for the
moment, she raised the light and peer
ed into the darkness. and was soon en-
abled to make out the cause of the dis
turbance, for within a few yards of
where she then stood, with distended
jaws, she discerned hu. % bear making
rapid strides towards her, with the evl~
dent intention of making an evening
meal of her dainty person. Thinking
that her best course, under the circum.
stances, was to put the greatest distance
between herself and bruin, she turned
and fled with rapid feet towards her
fathers mansion. But few yards,
however, had been compassed by her
when the low, angry growl of the saw
age brute, now within few feet of his
intended victim, made it painfully evi-
dent that bruin was the faster Gf the
two in this fearful race, and some
other device must be adopted if she
would escape his dread embrace. Sum-
moning all her courage. she faced her
pursuer, flashing the light she carried
in her hand almost in the monsters
face. This seemed to astonish and CON
fuse his bearship for the moment, and
he turned as il to flee !; but his hunger
seemed to get the better of his fears,
and once more he turned and faced our
heroine, and with savage growls and
open jaws, seemed ready to make the
fatal spring. But the bold front and
steady nerves of our heroine, still wav-
ing the light in his eyes, kept the brute
at bay, while she slowly retreated. At
this juncture several children, who
were eye witnesses of the scene we have
been relating, at first not taking in the
full danger Of our heroine, now boldly
came to the rescue, aud with their
noisy cnmor so frightened bruin that
he took to the woods, aud left our hero.

Every man who is doing any sort of

poor mans son, and had to fight his
way to his place Not one of them, as
far as can ascertain, was a rich man s

boy, except that all boys should grow
as strong as steel bar, fighting their
way to an education, and then, when
they are ready, plunging into life with
that traditional half dollar and little
bundle tied up in red handkerchief, as

you that in five and twenty years, when
most of US that are now in our middle
ages have gone to their retribution, the
men of mark in this country will not be

them all they wish for, and ten times
more than they ought to have, but will
be those who are brought up in farm

through thick set hindrances of every
sort: and all the brown stone houses OF
this metro oils will be as nothing to

The Fay Rails affair reported last week
An ATTEMPTED MuRDER.-On Sat,
urday last, while Senator Fay was seat
ed in the Bella Union Saloon reading
a newspaper, with his back to the door.
Y. s. Rails entered and without word
drew his pistol. Mr. Fay happening to
glance up caught sight of the action.
and springing to his feet had barely
time to draw his revolver and present it,
when Rails fired, the parties being
about six feet apart The ball from
Rails pistol glanced along the arm Of
Mr.. Fays pistol, struck the end of the
plate back and disabling the weapon,
the parties being so close together that
the powder burnt Mr.. Fay's fingers
aud face. Tie ball split on the end of
the plate, a part going through Mr..
Fry's coat, pocket book and striking the
second rib on the right side, inflicted
painful flesh wound while the con-
cussion of the blow on the pistol caused
it to inflict painful wounds on the
hand and fingers. Rails Immediately up,
on firing retreated to thestreets, and fired
two more shots into the saloon at Mr..
Fay, who was virtually disarmed, hapi-
ly, however, infctlng no other damage.
A more deliberate attempt at murder
was never perpetrated in this State
We understand the proper steps have
been taken to bring the attempted mur,
derer to justice.
BoUND OvER.-James d. Fay and
V. S. Rails were each bound over yes
ter day, before James Il. Wade, in the
sum of $4,000, to keep peace.
