L1BARALiTY OF PHYsIoIANs.-It II
has always been said that physicians
would disparage any remedy, however
valuable, which they did not originate
themselves. This has been disproved
by their liberal course towards DR.. j.
G. Ayers preparations. They have
adopted them into general use in their
practice, which shows willingness to
countenance articles that have intrinsic
merits which deserve their attention.
This does the learned profession great
credit, and effectually contradicts the
prevalent erroneous notion that their op-
position to proprietary remedies is based
in their interest to discard them. We
have always had confidence IN the hon.
orahle motives Of our medical men, and
are glad to find it sustained by the lib
eral welcome they accord to such RENE
dies as Aver & Co.'S inimitable reme-
dies, even though they are not ordered
in the books, but are made known to
the people through the newspapers

How to Feed Corn Stalks Proftably.

A TRUE STA TEMENT OF THE FORS-
TER GUARDS DIFFICULTY.

Having heard rumors detrimental to the be-
havior Of the Forster Guards on last Saturday
night, We visited the saloon Of Mr.. Victor
Haug (not Frank, at the corner of Royal and
Barracks streets, and elected the following i'll
formation. Mr. Haug states that the asser-
tons concerning the club are entirely errone-
Gus
That while at the door looking at the club,
q noise attracted his attention towards his
counter, behind which he saw man at the
money drawer. He imme liately turned in
pursuit Of the thief, who made his way out Of
the side door and. ran into the procession,
which, by this time, was in front Of his house
To-secure the man, he ran through the ranks
of the club.
A few of the members asked him what he
wished, and thinking that he was about to in
tertere with one of their members, pursued
him into his saloon, where he (Mr Hang) was
protected by the officers and other members
of the club. He further states that the Forster
Guards were not near his house when his
drawer was 'tapped," and that it was not
member of that club, but man without
sleeves, whom he can identify; and that for
what little damage was done in his saloon
during the mOmentary squabble the club,
through its president, has rendered full remu-
neratiOn.
