TRANSFORMING THE COMPLEXION
The transformations produced by Ha'
gan's Magnolia Balm are quite as
astonishing as any scene on the stage
Of theatre. That famous beauttier
transmutes a sallow, peeky looking
complexion into one in which the lily
and the rose vie for admiration, and
imparts to a dry, harsh skin the soft,
ness Of perfect loveliness. Tan and
freckles, which country air and sun
light are pretty sure to produce, in spite
OF parasols and sundowns, are COM
pletely obliterated by it; while it has a
perfectly magical effect in banishing
undue redness, blotches and pimples
from the skin. When the lady who has
used it to remedy her complexional
defects looks in the mirror, she is
equally astounded and gratifed at the
Improvements in her appearance. Every
blemish has disappeared; her neck,
arms and bosom now rival In white
ness the snowy collar which encircles
her throat, her cheek NANTES with a
peach-like bloom, and she is ready to
invoke blessing on the inventor Of the
article which has wrought such a
delightful transformation.

CHEAP GooDs.-Messrs. Emshelmer d
Blum will add this morning to their
closing out sale, their entire stock OF
underwear, hosiery and gloves, adapted
for ladies', gents and youths wear,
which comprises the choicest selections
Of foreign and domestic productions;
also, a choice stock Of all wool felt skirts,
velveteeus, furs, shawls, and all wooden
goods generally, which will be offered
remarkably cheap. Judging from the
increased rush Of buyers daily at this
store, we presume goods are sold at
extremely low figures, Notwithstanding
the recent advance on all kinds OF dry
goods. This firm, however, seems to be
determined to sell off their stock. Be
sides this, they will continue to sell the
best six cord thread at SC spool, which
is certainly the cheapest machine cotton
ever offered in this country, and should
draw out large forces Of buyers.

The GRAND CoNCERT.-The first grand
concert of the Wheeling Musical lnsti.
tute is to be given at Washington Hall,
on Thursday evening, February lst ami
the sale Of tickets is already large, so
great is the desire Of our citizens TO
hear a concert given by our home
talent Wheeling has as many talented
musical amateurs as any city Of her
size in the Union can boast, and it is
not saying too much to predict that the
concert 10 be given on Thursday night
will be as well worthy OF patronage and
give as much satisfaction as any ever
given in the hall. The price Of admis.
sion is so low as to exclude none, and
the programme is SO judiciously ar
ranged that all-those who love classic
music and those who linger lovingly on
the touching strains of an old ballad
will have their tastes gratifed. We
advise all to go. Seats may be secured

KING CHARLES THE MARTYR.-On
the 3Oth day of January, l649. Charles
the First, King of England, was be-
headed, and until 1859; the day was a
red.lettsr anniversary in the English
calender, with a service appointed for
"Charles the Martyr. How such a
service could have been retained for
two hundred years will probably serve
as a subject for discussion by future
antiquaries. The Office found many
defenders even the impiety and pro-
family Of some Of the illusions were
regarded as the most appropriate that
could be selected, and the whole service
was regarded as being almost inspired.

A BRurs.-On Saturday night as
Hiram Ball was driving along the road
that leads from the Monument, he
heard . woman shrek murder, mnr.
der" Hastily springing from his buggy
and over q fence, he heard again the
woman's voice cry, "Oh, Frank, don't
kill me-" and heard the dull thud OF
blows. Running in the direction from
which the sounds proceeded, he came
to where a man was kicking q woman
in most brutal manner. Mr.. Ball at
once interfered, when the ruffian, who
proved to be the woman's husband, and
whom she called Frank, turned upon
him and caught him by the throat.
Mr.. Ball had picked up rock as he
ran to the woman's assistance, and
luckily had it in his hand. As the
brute Of a husband caught him by the
throat, Mr.. Ball gently famed his face
with it q time or two, and the wind from
the stone was 80 great as to cause the
wife-beater to let go his hold on Mr..
Balls throat and sit down on the green
sward without any one telling him to-
1t is a great pity he was ever able to
get up again. This wife beating is get
ting to be quite common among a GER
tain class of men, and there should be
law enacted making them outlaws
and providing for bounty of not les'
than $50 for the scalp of every known
wife.whipper, the money to be paid on
presentation of the scalp at the Re
corder's Office. Such a law would stop
some OF them in their mad career.
