Centaur Iinimenf.

There is no pain which the Centaur Liniment
will not relieve no swelling it will not subdue,
and no lameness which it will not cure. This is
strong language, but itistrue. Where the parts
are not gone, its effects are marvellous. It has
produced more cures of rheumatism, neuralgia,
lockjaw, palsy, sprains, swellings, caked-breasts
scalds, burns, salt-rheum, ear-ache &C., upon
the human frame, and of strains, SPAWN, gals,
&C., upon animals in one year than have all 9TH
er pretended remedies since the world began
1t is counter-irritant, an all-healing pain re-
lever. Cripples throw away their crutches, the
lame walk, poisonous bites are rendered harm
less, and the wounded are healed without a scar.
1t is no humbug. Therecipe is published around
each bottle. 1t is selling as no article ever before
Sold and it sells because it does just what it pre-
tends to do. Those who now suffer from rheu-
matism, pain or swelling, deserve to suffer if
they will not use Centaur Liniment. More than
1000 certificates of remarkable cures, including
frozen limbs, chronic rheumatism, govt, run
ming tumors, &c, have been received. We will
send circular containing certificates, the reci-
pc, &C., gratis, 20 any one requesting it. One
bottle of the yellow wrapper Centaur Liniment
is worth one hundred dollars for spawned or
sWeenied horses and mules, or for screw-worm
in sheep. Stock-owners, this liniment is worth
your attention. NJ family should be without

REMAINS OF NICHOLAS BREEDEN FOUND
At the time of the great freshet in this State in
September 1870, when so much property was
destroyed'and so many lives were lost in the
Shenandoah river, Mr. Nicholas Breeder of
Rockingham and two others, we believe were
at work upon an island in the Shenandoah river
in Page county near the Rockingham line. Mr..
Breeder could swim, but his companions could
not. When the waters became very high. Mr..
Breeder made preparations with view of trv.
ing to gain the shore by swimming, but his COM
panions, who could not swim, begged him not TO
desert them, whereupon he resolved in spirit
oil self-sacrltce to stay with them and await
events. The waters continued to rise till thew
were swept of the island. The result was. that
Mr.. Breeder, the only one who could swim. lost
his life, whilst the others fortunately caught in
the tops of trees and their lives were thus saved
The remains of Mr.. Breeder were not found
till few weeks ago. when they were found by
Mr.. VIM. F. Kite of Page county, and recog.
nized by the hair on the head which was still in
state of perfect preservation. We knew him
well. He was clever man, and was possessed
of an unusual degree of mechanical ingenuity,

A LATTER-DAY SAINT Who that is at all
familiar with Sabbath school literature has not
heard of the sanity Col Gardiner and the pious
Gen. Havelock of the British Army? Who
has not shed tears over the tender story of Wash
ington and his "liltle hstchet," illustrating the
early conscientiousness which afterwards ripen-
ed into the mature piety of the Father of his
country? Who has not admired the sublime re-
ligious faith of Stonewail jackson, which stood
as firm as the granite basis OF his native noun
tains, in the midst of perils and of death? And
who that has perused the pious discourse of Rob-
ert w. Hughes before the Shacknasty bush
meeting at Lynchburg, can fail to recognize in
the leader of the Radical host latter day saint
of the highest style. We take pleasure in call
ing the attention of the American Tract Society
TO the Radical candidate for Governor as the
best subject for religious biography that the past
century has developed. A volume from the
pen of one of the ''cullud breddren,' illustrated
by wocd-cuts, would be valuable addition to
our Sabbath school libraries. As a frontis- piece
we might have picture representing this mod
ern Moses leading the dusky children of Ham to
the promised Canaan, where they are certainly
to secure forty acres of land and mule" In
the meantime, let US by all means have a little
four-page tract for gratuitous distribution among
the heather white people of Virginia. Our
whole heart is in the home missionary work. and
if it cannot be accomplished in any other way,
we propose contribution for the purpose by
both parties. VIII our brethren of the press

finder wrote to him at once and aseertained that

HUGHES AND LUTHER.-Col. Hughes is re-
ported to have said in his Warrenton speech
that he ''came in the spirit of Luther in his jour

were tiles on the houses"
Our opinion is that man who could dare to
stand up before Virginia audience in advocacy
of such principles and policy as Col. Hughes
avows, has cheek enough to face any number of
devils, including Belzebub the Prince AS to

JUDGE FULTZ AND THE ENQUIRER. Since
his nomination for Attorney General on the Rad.
zeal Ticket. Judge Fultz has been pursuing
'the even tenor of his way" as usual. This be-
coming conduct on his part, the Enquirer does
not seem to understand, and every day or two it
discharges a shaft at him. In its issue of Satur-
day it says that it would be "Fultz-ome praise
to say that the Radicals have any candidate for
Attorney General" and the day before asked
whether he was all three, dead, deaf, and dumb,
In view of the fact that he has Daniel for his
competitor, it seems to us that it is unreasona-
in the Enquirer to expect him to go roaming over
the State like a roaring lion seeking whom he
may devoar," when we have scrptural authority
for the fact that even the Lions in the DEM re-
fused to modest Daniel" Though bold as
lion," yet being man, he might, like Macbeth,
we'll say:
II dare do all that may become man;
Who dares do more, is none"
Testing aside-we think that Judge Fultz is
conducting himself with becoming propriety,
and is showing more good sense than the other
candidates on the ticket with him. He is in
rather bad company. and, like the stork in the
fable, may be made to suffer in consequence

flows in the veins of the sire we not inform
