BILE have recovered their health under
their treatment, while many others have
been wonderfully benefited. As far as
we can hear, all who have called upon
them say the doctors described their
disease with accuracy, without asking a

them to prescribe the precise remedies
to effect lasting and permanent cure.
Their remedies are entirely vegetable

Pianos are to be found in every city, in

other firm, is American art indebted fol
its reputation abroad. The Steinwa!
Piano is now a synonym for all that il
desirable and durable in the art, and q:
such it ought to occupy pre-eminence ir
the minds Of purchasers" So saws one
of our Eastern exchanges. We can say
that the Steinways have pre-eminenct

MARrrs's FERRY IrEMs.-On Wednes-

MARTINS FERRY ITEMs.-On Wednes-
day evening at about four o'clock, a
whirlwind, accompanied by heavy
funnel-shaped cloud, coming from the
direction of st. Clairsville, passed quar-
tering along the hill back OF Martins
Ferry and struck the river just about
Burlington. Connected with the whirl-
wind was something having the appear
ance of gas. In its course it twisted OF
trees, tearing others up by the roots and
sent fence rails whirling through the air
with frightful velocity. 1t took three
rows of grapevines out Of the Schwartz
vineyard, and, at the point where it en-
countered Mr.. Robinson's board fence,
made things lively, tearing the boards
into kindling wood. Near Burlington
it lifted three apple trees out by the
roo's and passed over into West Vir-
gina. We heard Of no one being in
jured in person. 1t was accompanied
BY a loud and peculiar noise.
Rev. J. G. Castle, of the NJ. E.
Church, who has been unwell for some
time, left on yesterday with his family
for the mountains, hoping to improve
his strength by little recreation. He
received short leave OF absence from
his congregation.
On Wednesday forenoon, at the resi-
dence of Mr.. James Van Pelt, Mr..
Jacob Banegar, of Birmingham, led to
the hymenial altar Miss Lucretia Rog-
ers, daughter of Rev. j. II. Rogers, OF
Bellaire. Rev. J. c. Castle performed
the ceremony. The occasion was one
of unusual interest. All the parties left
on the ii o'clock train to take dinner
at the residence of the brides father in
Bellaire.
