During last week young African.
aged about fourteen, and giving his
name as jest Tom," was found in
the basement of the Express Office
in company with Mr.. Jno. StefFners'
chickens. He had his pockets well
stocked with matches, which he said
he intended using in finding the
whereabouts of each particular chick
en-. He was placed in the lookup for
the night, and ere morning had bro,
ken the lock of the inner door and
crawled between the iron bars on the
outer one and fled.
a few nights thereafter he was
caught by sergeant Wheeler and
brought before Mayor Fowler, when
he stated that he once belonged to
Mr.. Neel on Reedy Creek. lie had
stolen at Mr.. Saul's and at DR.. Tee
ter's and of the cOIorCd people, and
had proven himself good at ''liftin9"

a sack of wheat. 1t is also said he
and his older brother had killed their
younger brother, year ago, in Haw-
kins county, Tennessee. by placing
the little fellows neck upon a rail
and piling others on top of it until
they chokcd him to death.
lie said he was innocent of this.
but affirmed that his older brother
had done it, because the little fellow
wished to follow hir,, and that there
was one damned niger less"
He had passed at one time under
the name of Bob, and said he had
ben sleeping in the grass because
"dese black niggers would not board
HIM"
He was ordered by the Mayor to
80 days in the Lookup, with % rea-
sonabIe lashcs on his entrance and
"A more on his exit. But in less
than twelve hours he had nearly made
his escape by again breaking the lock.
He was then pinioned and as soon as
the Sergeant had left, slipped his ca
bic with all the dexterity of a Five
Points expert, after which he was
ironcd. He is very small, as 1.-the
as a serpent and will weigh less than
60 pounds.

The hot solar rays that ripen the harvests
generate many distressing diseases. IL the
liver be at all predispOsed to IRE Sularities,
this is the season in which bilious attacks
may be anticipate. A weak stOmache, too,
is weakest in the summer months, and the
loss of vitality through the pores by excess

toric, combining also the properties of a
diffusiye stimulant and gentle exhilarant, is
in many cases necessary 10 health. and under
no circumstances should be dispensed with by
the sickly and debilitated. OF all the prep
arations INTENDED thus to refresh, sustain
and furtify tue human frame, there is none
that win compare with Hostetter's Celebra-
ted Stomach BItters. They have been
weighed in the balance of experience and not
found wanting; have been recommended
from the first as a great medicinal specific,
nat as beverage, and in spite of interested
opposition from innumerable quarters, stand,
after twenty years trial, at the head of all
proprietary medicines intended for the pre-
yention and cure of all ordinary complaints
Of the stomach, the liver, the bowels and the
nerves. In the unhealthy districts border
ing the great rivars of California, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters may be classed as the stand

those districts, place the most implicit conf
dence in the preparation-a confidence that
is increased every year by the results of its
operation. r.
