This wonderful vegetable re-
storative is the sheet-anchor of
the feeble and debilitated. AS
a tonic and cordial for the aged
and languid it has no equal
among stomachics. As a rem
edy for the nervous weakness
to which women are especially
subject, it is superseding every
other stimulant. In all climates,
tropical, temperate or trigid,
it acts as a specific in every spe-
cies of disorder which under
mines the bodily strength and
breaks down the animal spirits.

LARGE FIRES IN NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, July rs.
The shops of the Erie Railroad la jersey
CITY were burned last night. Loss 81, 500, ,OOO-
mostly Insured The Erie building covered
about six acres. No such fire has ever before
been witnessed In Jersey City. Besides Engi-
neet Mccarthy, OF the fire department, who
met a horrld death from falling walls a1d fire,
Charles Nagle, stoker, of the same engine,
was also crushed, but escaped with broken
legs. One man, machinlst, entered the
buildings Tor tools, and 1t is feared he perish
ed, The fire lasted TWO hours. significant
fact connected with the fire Is that at The late
strike all the Jersey City men were notified
that they would not be again employed. This
threat was carried out. The employees were
all from New York.
The flames Illuminated the shipping In the
river, aRd the light extended to the New
York side for great distance The scene
around the fire was one of excitement and be-
wIlderment. The mechanics and their wives
were rushing 10 and fro, giving expressions of
regret at the loss of their tools and prospec-
tive business. Upwards Of eleven hundred
hands were employed in the shops. There Is
no instance on record Of q destruction so eud-
den and complete. The machinery can only
be sold for old Iron.
The loss by the burning of the Catholic
Female Protectnry, at Westchester, this morn
Ing, is about sl50, 900. 1t was an educational
house for vagrant and criminal Catholic chill.
drep, presided over by the Sisters of Charity,
and It's destruction leaves some five hundred
children homeless. ALI the children were
rescued without accident.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
A Complicated Cotton Case--Important
Argument by Judge Magrath.

Judge Graham has been occupied for seVe-
raj days In hearing the case of William A. and
Jeremiah Beall, of Augusta, Ca, against James
Robb and c. T. Lowndes, trustees OF John
Fraser Co. This is an action brought to re.
cover the proceeds of over five thousand bales
of cotton shipped By the Messrs. Beall to Fra
ser, Trenholm & Co., Liverpool, through John
Fraser & Co., Charleston. The amount To-
volved is s1s4, 1856, with Interest from the 18th
of December, 1867. The Mesars. Bsall are re.
presented by the Hon. ]. B. Campbell, Colonel
Thomas Y. simons, and Messrs. Bulst e. Bulst;
on the other side are Judge Dunkin ana Messrs.
Magralh and Lowndes.
The first two days, Tuesday and Wednesday,
were occupied in reading the evidence, which
Is very vo!uminous. Yesterday morning the
argument was opened by the Hon. A. G.
Msgrath for the plaintiffs. Mr.. Magrath
argued, frst that Fraser, Trenholm & Co., of
Liverpool, and John Fraser & Co., of Charles
ton, were separate and distinct firms, either
firm being in no way liable for the obiga-
tions of the other, and even if they were not
distinct firms there was no proof in this case
