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 it is true. Where the parts
are not gone, its effects are marvellous. It has
produced more cures of rheumatism, neuralgia
lockaw, 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 scar.
1t is no humbug. Therecipeis published around
each bottle 1t is selling 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, TO any one requesting it. One
bottle of the yellow wrapper Centaur Liniment
is worth one hundred dollars for spawned or

ARREST OF L. G. WooLF, OF SOUTH CARROLL
NA.-Tbe Rockingham Register says that some
excitement was created in Harrisonburg on
Monday afternoon. of last week, by the arrest of
a man from South Carolina, name l.. G. Woolf
The party arrested had had a difficulty in
Charleston, S. c., in September, 1872, with a
man named Perrine, who hailed from Connecti-
cut. The testimony in the case shows, says the
Register that Perrine attempted to strike Woolf
with an iron bolt when W. shot him dead. He
was arrested, jury of negroes empanneled, a
verdict of manslaughter rendered, and his pun
ishment fixed at five years confinement in the
State prison at Columbia. Woolf had served
number of months of his sentence, when meet
ing with a good chance to escape he came to
the Valley of Virginia, where he was arrested as
stated, and carried back to Columbia Woolf
is represented as an educated man, lawyer by
profession, the head of an interesting family and
greatly respected where the unfortunate killing
occurred. His friends say and the testimony ad-
duced at the trial shows, that the killing was
purely a case of necessity and justifable homi-
eide, and only such jury as can now be OBJ
tanned in South Carolina would have convicted
him of any offence. The arrest was made by
Chief of Police, Joseph III. Kelly, of Harrison
burg assisted by Richmond detective John
Wren, a reward for his arrest having been offer
ed by the South Carolina authorities.

Gen. Kemper will make one Of the best Gov
ernors we ever had. He is honorable, high
minded, honest, intelligent, capable in all res
poets, emphaticall man of the people. He
deserves large vote from all classes of his fell
low-citizens, but especially from our German
friends for his kindness to them when we were
in dreadful war. He honored and respected
their conscientious scruples on the subject of
not bearing arms. He cheerfully, gladly signed
their exemptions under the law, end sent them
home to their farms and families rejoicing =
Now that the good citizens Of the State have
an opportunity OF testlfying their respect for
such man, ought not every man to do it Es-
pecially, ought not every TINKER and Mennon-
lite in the State to stand by the friend who
stood by them when they most needed a friend !?
We are sure We can answer for the honest, up
right, straightforward Germans of this part of
Virginia they will do their duty fully on the
4th of November to God and their country

A CARD.

To may Feltoao Citizens of augusta:
Having been called upon by Legion and
mount Zion" within the past month or more,
through the public press of the county, and
having been earnestly solicited by scores of my
friends in different parts of the county to be-
come candidate to represent the county In the
next Legislature of Va, l feel, that in respect
to myself and in justice to them, can no longer
remain silent on the subject and / assure my
friends that my seeming hardness in replying
must not be construed as disposition to treat
them cavalieriy; but l only took time to
turely reflect on so grave a subject, and to con-
suit with my friends in the premises
| would remind my fellow citizens that two
years ago l was urged by many of my friends in
person, as well as through the press, to become
candidate, and through the same medium,
declined the honor with the intimation that at
some future time might consent to become a
candidate, and believing that the time has now
come, L hereby announce myself candidate to
represent the county, in part, in the House of
Delegates of the next General Assembly of Va.
/ appreciate in the highest degree the honor
conferred upon me by the lattering estimate my
friends have put upon my ability to repres ent
them in the councils of the great State of Vir-
ginia; and. should it be their pleasure to elect
me, pledge myself to represent their interest
with honesty and fidelity at least, and with
whatever ability kind Providence has vouch-
safed to me. Respectfully,
JOHN j. CUPP.

liable source, that Rev. DR.. Muusey, whose re-

Hoston Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church South, in session at Marion last week.
and having satisfied the Conference Of his re-

the discharge of ministerial duties, he was re-
quested TO preach in that place on Sunday
evening. He complied with the request, and
delivered 40 able and impressive sermon to a
very large audience This Intelligence is very
gratifying to us, and we feel confident it will be
gladly received by the many friends Of
this able divine wherever his name and eminent
services in the Christian ministry are known

Ms- Summer Esiseases.-THE CHEAT
REM Y-BAKER'S PREMIUM BIT

From Editor of Norfolk Herald
This is the season which these celebrated Bit
ters are mostly sought after, and possessing as
they do a worldwide fame, it is hardly necessa-
ry to impress upon the mind of the invalid their
inestimable virtues. We have, in our social in
tercourse. heard but one expression in their IA
vor, and that Is, whenever used they act like
charm, and prove more eticacious than any
medicine that has ever been offered to the pub
lie. The maker of these Dtters uses no highly
wrought panegyrics or flaming haDd-bils to fur
ther the sale OF his Bitters, but simply throwing
the article on its own merits to be judged accor-
dinghy. he does not, like all the quack stuff
now in use, say that it will cure all the ills COM
mon to humanity; but he stakes his reputation
that whenever taken according to directions it
will cure Ague and Fever, Dyspepsia, Bowel
Complaint Cholera Morbus, Indigestion, Sour
Stomach Loss of Appetite and all diseases
arising from torpIdity of the Liver and inaction
of the digestive organs. Their equal is yet to be
had
