suffering from the national disease -indi-

nothing agreed with us. We discussed medi-

tract of dandelion, another almost every variety
of purgatives. In fact, we had made apothe-
carries shops of our insides but nothing had
done us any good. / said / wondered if your
PLANTATION BITTERs would help us any. After
some talk we concluded to try it, and meet
again at the same place that dsv month to
compare notes. We did So 1t was iovial

another. Each had gained flesh each re-
ported good appetite, sound sleep, an easy
stomach and a regular habit of body. The
change was marvellous. 1t was agreed to
report the facts to you, and was appointed to
make this communication. You can publish it

On Saturday night at IL O'Clock Thomas
d. Brennan, formerly yard master at
Columbus, KY. OF the Mobile and Ohio
railroad, and lately Of Bismarck, Missouri

He registered his name at the Southern
hotel and retired to bed. At about 80.
clock he appeared in the Office of the ho-
tel and informed the clerk that he was
not we'll and could not sleep.
He then walked out OF the
house towards the river. When
next seen he was lying on the sidewalk in
front Of Sackberger's hotel. After lying
there few moments he got up and walked
to Phillips restaurant, two doors north of
Sackberger's, and fell into the door. To
those who tried to compel him to get up
and 60 away from the restaurant, he said !:
II am sick help me up" He was raised
and placed on a chair, but he fell again to
the floor and died in few minutes.
On the person of the deceased was

HOW MUCH WE KNOW ABOUT 1T AND WHY
WE DON'T KNOW MORE
The Pulaski Patriot says the Cairo
newspapers "seem to be in possession Of
full particulars substantiating their faith
in the immediate building CT the Cairo and
Vincennes railroad" and adds "We see
no reason in the world why the Cairo pa
pers may not be posted, for certainly
Mcssrs, Hurd, Halliday and others there
know the exact condition of affairs, and can
tell the truth about it If they will. We
can see no reason why they should keep
the people ignorant of the facts, and yet
there is very general belief that these gen.
tlemen know more than they are willing
to divulge, and some even express tho be-
lief that they are with Burnside, Raum
and others, determined to do nothing until
such time as the creditors of Dodge, Lord
& Co., shall Voluntarily come forward and
offer clear receipt for all demands" We
do not know what Messrs. Hurd and Hal
lday know about.tho e. & V. road. These
gentlemen, in so far as the movements to
build the road are concerned, are to US
very close corporations. No information
from them ever leaks into thes" columns,
and oil our information comes from Gen.
Raum and DR.. Mitchell, who "leak" weekly
through the columns of their local papers.
But this we do know, that no movement to
rob the creditors of the road is deterring
Gen. Burnside from going on with the work,
Whatever may be said about him, there is
no reason that can be drawn from his con-
duct to believe he is any thing else than an
honest man, and we have expressed our
opinion OF Mcssrs. Hurd and Halliday, in
their relation to this enterprise, on the
second page of The BULLETIN.

RIVER NEWS.
PORT LIST.
ARRIVED AND DEPARTED.
RIVERS AND THEIR CONDITIONS.

Here the river continues to fall very fast
and during Monday II fell one foot, and ct
that rate it will not be very long before
the channel will be down to three feet TO
Evansville. At Cincinnati the river is
still rising very slowly. At Louisville it
10 about stationary. At Evansville the
river is falling and no doubt is full Of float
ing ice. The Wabash Is filed with ice
which is running out very freely. There
Is every prospect of the Ohio freezing over
above the mouth Of the Cumberland
river.
At 81. LOUIS the river is steadily falling
and the ice is getting heavier than it has
been. The worst place between here and
st. Louis Is Dog Tooth, where there 10
less than four feet, and as the surface Of
the river is covered with ice, it is diff
cult matter TO find the channel. Power
Island is still giving the boats . good
deal Of trouble. The bottom is composed
Of gravel, which makes it very difficult to
spar over. IL the fall in the river con-
tnues, in a few days there will be but
thirty inches in the channel TO St. Louis.
The ice is still coming cut very heavy
and 1t will not be surprising If it gorges
above here.

city-that is to say, the man who Uas the
runner of certain hotel Of this city (he
has since been discharged boarded the
steamer Illinois one day last week, just As
It landed at the wharf, and looking
around for victim settled upon an unpro-
tected female and importuncd her to ac-
company him to the hotel he represented.
The lady was very anxious to 60 forward
on her journey but was informed by
the runner that she could
not do SO; that the train
on which she should have gone to-
wards Chicago was already on its way
that she could not leave tho city until the
next day; that he would take her to no.
tel, see her comfortably and chsaply cared
for and DO particular TO have her at the
depot in time to take the train she desired
to go out on. The lady was "taken in, "
and accompanied the runner pastths train
she should have taken, and which was
waiting to receive the passengers from the
Illinois, to the hotel he represented. The
next day she ascer,ained she
had been gulled, and, having
her share of pluck, determined to have the
runner who had deceived her punished
