'Tll hear anything you have to say, Man.

Death Of Deputy q. r. Marshal Hill.
Arafh


W. d. Hildreth, the Deputy L. S. Mar
| shall who was shot at Hillsboro, Coffee
| county, last Friday, by a man named Saun-
ders, died yesterday, after enduring great
physical pain from the time of the
shooting.
United States Marshal Spence left Nash
vile for Coffee county yesterday, but ar
rived too late to be of any service 10 his
Saunders had not been arrested, but his
capture is only question Of time, as no
efforts will be spared on the part of the
Government officials herewith whom
Hildreth was great favorite-to accom-
plish that object.
The murdered Deputy Marshal was in
Nashville about ten days ago, and left
with Mr.. Butler, of the Commercial Hotel,
package OF printed forms, to be kept IN
til the return of the former.
Hildreth had been in the Revenue se--
vice but little over year, but had met
with remarkable success. Last fall he
made twenty arrests, and during the past
two years had arrested nearly one hundred
and fifty men, charged with all the crimes
IN the calendar, and proportion of whom
were desperate characters. He was fine
looking man, standing over six feet
in his stockings, with a round,
full face, smooth as a girls, bright, mirth-
ful eyes and brown, curly hair.
In bringing prisoners to Nashville, he
always took them to the Commercial
Hotel where he kept them under his per-
Sonal supervision until they had either Sc
cured bond, Gf it was a bailable case), or
had demonstrated their inability to give
security for their appearance, whereas he
might have had the arrested parties locked
up in jail Immediately upon reaching
Nashville, thus relieving himself of all fur
ther trouble concerning them.
In the death or Mr.. Hildreth, the Gov
eminent has lost a brave, kind-hearted,
chivalrous and efficient officer.

Liver and Blood Diseases.-By

liver and Blood Diseases.-By r. v.
Pierce, NJ. D.-A healthy liver secretes
each day about two and half pounds of
bile, which contains agreat amount Of waste
material taken from the blood. When the
liver becomes torpid or congested, it fails to
eliminate this vast amount of noxiOus sub
stance which, therefore, remains to poison
the blood, and be conveyed to every part of
the system. What must be the condition
of the blood when it is receiving and retain
ing each day two and ha'f pounds Of poi
son? Nature tries to work off this poison
through other channels and Organs-the
kidneys, lungs, skin, etc.-but these organs
become Oyertaxed in performing this labor
in addition to their natural functions, and
cannot long withstand the pressure, but be-
come variously diseased.
The brain, which is the great electrical
center of all vitality, is unduly stimulated
by the unhealthy blood which passes TO it
from the heart. and il fails to perform its
Office BEAUTIFULLY. Hence the symptoms of
bile poisoning, which are dizziness, head
ache, incapacity to keep the mind ON any
subject, impairment of memory, dizzy,
seepy or nervous feelings, gloomy forebOd-
ingS, and irritability of temper. The blood
itself being diseased, as it forms the sweat
upon the surface of the skin, it is so irri-
tating and poisonous that it produces dis
colOred brown spots, pimples, blOtches and
other eruptiOns, sores, bOils caTbuncles and
scTofulOus tIImOrs. The stomach. bowels
and other organs cannot escape becoming
affected, sooner or later, and we have, as
the result, cOstiveness, piles, drOpsy, dys-
pepsia- diarTpa. Other symptoms are con-
mon, as bitter or bad taste in mouth, inter-
nal heat, palpitatiOn, teasing cough, I'M
steady appetite, choking sensation in throat,
bloaiing of stomach. pain in side or about
shoulders or back, cOldness Of extremitieS,
etc, etc. Only a few of the above symp-
toms are likely to be present in any case at
one time. The liver being the great depu-
rating or blood cleansing organ of the sys-
tenn, set this great '.lOusekeeper of our
health at work, and the foul coTuptions,
which gender in the blood and rot out, as
it were, the machinery of life, are gradual
ly expelled from the system. For this pur-
pose my Golden Medical Discovery, with
very small doses daily Of my Pleasant Pur-
gative Pellets, are prominently the arti-
cles needed. They cure every kind of hui
NOR, from the worst scrOfula to the COM
mon pimple, blotch or eruption. Great eat
ing ulcers Kindly heal under their mighty
curative influence. Virulent blood poisOns
that Turk in the system, are by them rob
bed of their terrOrs, and by their persever-
ing and somewhat protIacted use the most
tainted systems may be completely reno
waited and built up anew. Enlarged glands,
tumoFs and swellines dwindle away and
disappear under the influence Of these great
reSolyents. myZ3 deOdiw&wlt

Once, Twice. Three Times.

Yesterday was a dGyof trial to the no
torious thief, Andrew Brown, colored-an
ordeal day. He was tried in the Criminal
Court on three separate indictments for
burglary and larceny, On the first for buI-
glary and larceny, in entering the pri-
vate residence of f. B. McClannahan, last
winter, he was convicted for ten years in
the penitentiary. On the second, for lar
ceny from the private dwelling of DIR. T.
A. AtchisOn, he was convicted for three
years. The third and last Indictment was
for forcibly entering Ewin, Pendletoa &
Co.'S. drug store and committing larceny,
and on this his case was given to the jury,
who have not rendered their verdict. All
of the crimes charged against Brown were
committed in the early part of last winter

ELDER FOUNTAIN E. PITTS.
The Last sad Rites stet the ifo66red
TLa1A

The remains of the late Elder Fountain
z. Pitts reached Nashville from Louisville
at $50 Sunday morning, where they were
met by large number of pastors, officers
and ether members of the Methodist
Churches in the city, and conveyed to
Mckendree Church, where the funeral ser
vices were held at 1870.
The hymns sung were all favorites of
the deceased, the sold Ship of Zion being
| selected as a voluntary. The first hymn
was read by Rev. r. Il, Brown, and the
opening prayer was offered by Rev. DR..
Weakley. DR.. Sawrie read the first lesson,
Rev. +. r. Hill reading the second.
Rev. j. W. Hill then read the second
hymn, after the singing Of which DIR. Kel-
ley delivered an appropriate address, giving
an interesting description Of the life. char
acter and preaching OF the late Elder Pitts.
He was followed by the Rev. w. Burr, of
GAINESVILLE, who gave an account of the last
illness Of the deceased, his death. and the
impressive funeral services which were held
at Louisville.
Rev. Z. T. Hart then read hymn, Rev.
w. r. Warren followed with prayer, and
tie services were brought to a close with
the benediction; pronounced by Rev. DR..
Green.
The remains were conveyed to Mt. Olivet
Cemetery and deposited in the vault, where
the services were finally closed by the sing
ing of an appropriate hymn, and prayer
offered by Rev. DR.. Kelley.
AT THE PENITENTIARY,
appropriate exercises were held by the Sun
day-school relative to the death of this vet
eran minister of the gospel. Elder Pitts
was Chaplain of the Penitentiary at the
time of his death, and had won the con-
fidenee and love of officers and prisoners.
Hence it was thought fit that some ex-
preston of the feelings of the prisoners
should be made.
The following resolutions were drawn up
by committee of prisoners and unani-
mously adopted by the school by rising
vote:
Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God,
in his Providence, to call from earthly
labor to heavenly joys, as We trust, our be-
loved pastor and venerable minister, Rev.
F. Z. Pitts; and, whereas, in him we lose
an able preacher of the Gospel of our Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ, aud the Church

Resolved, by the Prison Sabbath-school |
that we recognize in his death the hand of |
an all wise God, and while we mourn his |
loss yet We rejoice that his life and death |
show forth the triumph of the Christian
faith.
Resolved, that we will endeavor to fol- |
low bis precepts and practice his virtues
that our end may be like his, that of peace.
Resolved, that we tender to his bereaved
family and many friends, especially the
Church of Christ, our heartfelt sympathy. |

CURED in this country. 1t is estimated
that 10000 people were present. An enor-
nous tent was erected for their accommo-

but it was found too small, and various re-
ligious services were held under the shade
trees, in large barn and in a church ad-

About one thousand delegates are ex-
pected to be in attendance tomorrow, of
