80 wearisome condition of humanity,

~ WeanSome condition OF humanity.
How many wretched homes in our land!
How many heart-broken invalids. Life with
many signifies a mere onerous existence. All
are subject to disease, but when health is re-
moved the hope is nearly gone out. Sickness
is usually incurred through exposure or care
lesSness. Especially is this true with those
diseases peculiar to women. Through her
ogn imprudence and folly she is made to drag
out miserable existence source of annoy
anee and anxiety to her friends, and anything
but comfort and pleasure to herself. Expo
sure to the cold at times when she should be
most prudent, and overtaxing her body with
laborious employment, are both fruitful causes
of many of the maladies from which she suf-
fers. Gradually the bloom leaves her cheeks,
her lips grow ashy white, her vivacity departs,
she continually experiences a feeling of weari-
ness and general languor, and altogether pre-
sents ghostly appearance. What does she
need? Should she take some stimulating
drug, which will for the time make her feel
letter, or does her entire system demand re-
paration! She requires something which not
only will restore to health the diseased organs,
but will tone and invigorate the system. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription will do this. 1t
imparts strength to the diseased parts, brings
back the glow of health, and restores comfort
where previously there was only suffering.
Every invalid lady should send for 1.-THE
Peoples Common Sense Medical Adviser" in
which over fifty pages are devoted to the con-
sideration of those diseases peculiar TO women.
1t will be sent, post-p paid, to any address, for
$3.50. Address, r. V. Pierce, NJ. D.,

warning. Sepulveda will recover.

MURDER.

A terrible, and from all &C.
counts most unprovoked murder
was committed at Castle Dome
last Sunday. Limo Lopez, a Mexi-
can, shot and killed another Next

any apparent cause or provocation,
unless drunkenness can be called
a cause. The murderer was taken

til an officer could arrive from
Yuma. The body of the murder
ed man was hauled to Castle
Dome Landing and from there
brought to Yuma in a boat, where

Justice at Last.

A report reached here this week
by parties from Sonora, that Ven
tura Martinez and his father-in-
law were shot and killed near
Magdalena, few days ago, by
their own countrymen. They
were overtaken with stolen stock
and supposed to be Apache In
dians, as they were painted red
and dressed in the Indian style.
When their pursuers were about
to eliminate their ears, their iden-
LITIGATION was developed.
Martinez was the notorious thief
who three years ago stole 100 head
of cattle from Messrs. Keener &
HONESTLY near Transfers Camp,
and drove them on the Tucson
road 10 SacatOn Station, having
disposed of a number Of the stock
on the route. At or near SacatOD
he was overhauIed by the owners,
but escaped, leaving them in DOS
session Of the cattle. His two
confederates uied near Morgan 5

QUEENS SPEECH.
My LORDS, AND GENTLEMEN: My re-
lations with all foreign powers are
friendly. The peace of Europe contin-
ues unbroken and I trust it will remain
SO. 1 will use my utmost endeavors
thereunto. The conference at Brussels
on the usages of war has been conclud-
ed. My Government has carefully ex-
amined the reports of its deliberations,
but considering the Importance of the
principles involved and the widely di
vergent opinions therein expressed and
the improbability of their reconciliation
have refused proposals for further ne.
gotiations.
The Serrano government in spain has
ceased to exist and Prince Alfonzo has
been called to the throne. The ques
ton of recognizing him in concert with
other powers, is now before my Govern
ment and the decision will not be long
delayed. 1 earnestly hope that peace
will be restored to that great but unfor-
tunate country.
Exer.ions for tie suppression of the
East African slave trade have not been
relaxed. I confidently trust that they
will result in the complete extinction Of
that traffic, which is equally repugnan'
to humanity and injurious to Legitimate
commerce. 3'
The differences between China and
Japan, once threatening war, are now
happily adjusted. I have learned with
pleasure that my Minister at Pekin was
largely instrumental in efecting this re-
suit. 70. lss
The past year has been one of general
prosperity and progress throughout our
colonies. The Gold Coast shows an
advance in the establishment of Civil
Government. Peace has been maintain
ed and slavery abolished. Hencefor-
ward there will be freedom there as else
where. I shall doubtless have your
concurrence in any measures which it
shall be my dnty to adopt. ensuring q
wise and humane system of native ad-
ministration in Natal.

way into his cabin at night, and though
acquitted of criminal intent, the deed
has weighed heavily upon his spirits
ever since, subjecting him to moods OF
dependency whenever he had othe,
causes of mental irritation. He has,
however, in the mean time, been an IN
dustrious, hard-working man, attending
strictly to his business and addicted to
no bad habits, and had the confidence
and respect of Mr.. Baxter, his employ
er, for whom he had worked in the tan
merry for several years. About three
years ago he married widow with a
large family of young children in desti-
tute circumstances. and has apparently
bean kind and liberal husband and
father. During the past season he in
vested his accumulations with partner
in the purchase of Mr.. Baxter's interest
in the tannery, and subsequently pur-
chased his partners interest, by which
he assumed liabilities which he depend
ed upon collections from the sale of
leather to meet Failing in his collec-
tions, he became embarrassed and de-.
spondent. and sought escape by suicide.
Immediately after he had swallowed the
poison, he repented the act; told his
wife what he had done, and asked for
medical help, which was soon procured
but without avail. Coroner Weed held
an inquest on the body, aud the jury
returned the following verdict:
U We, the undersigned jury, sum-
moned to enquire into the causes of the
death of James c. Mckay. find the fol-
lowing verdict: That he was a native
of Pennsylvania and fifty years of age
and that he came to his death on the Sth
day of FEBRUARY, 1875, in the city of Se-
attic, W. T., by taking strychnine, and
as the jury believe from the evidence,
with the intent to commit suicide.
