A JUROR MELTED TO TEARs.-One of the
jurors in the Wagner trial astonished the
spectators during Mr.. Lyons speech the
other day by shedding tears. He is a solid
man, who was never known before to in
dulge in the feminine privilege of crying.
But that day tears as large as a marble were
observed exploring the hills and valleys of
his rugged face. The audience freely com
mented upon the exhibition of such tender
heart, and gave the juror credit for a sympa-
thet1c nature. His tears, however, were not
for the prisoner. Two of his intimate friends
VINO were az liberty to leave the courthouse
whenever they chose, by signs signified to
the juror their intention of going out to take
ale and lunch, and invited him to accompany
them. He shook his head wofully, and lust
as his friends passed out of the door tears of
disappointment at missing his usual re-
freshments rolled down his cheeks Dtbagite

Bleeding from the Lungs, Catarrh. Bron-

Cure.

Il ADs T.
X, N.PIERCE, NJ. D., Buffalo, N. Y:
Dear SiT: L had suffered from Catarrh in
an aggravated form for about twelve years
and for several years from Bronchial trouble
Tried many doctors and things with no last
ing benefit. In May, 1872, becoming nearly
worn out with excessive editorial labors on
paper IN New York City, was attacked
with Bronchitis in severe form, suffering
almost total loss of voice. / returned home
here, but had not been home only two weeks
when was completely Frustrated with
Hemorrhage from the Lungs, hariftg four
serefe bleeding spells lcihia t,cO Uees aud first

lowing, improved sufficiently to be able to
be about, though in very feeble state Nv
Bronchial trouble remained and CatarrI, was
tenfold worse than before. Every effort for
relief seemed fruitless. 1 seemed to be losing
ground daily; l continued in this feeble
state, raising blood almost daily until about
Inc hrst OF March, '13, when became so bad
as 10 be entirely confined to the house. A
friend suggested your remedies. But was
EXTREMITY skeptlcal that they would do me
no good, as had lost all heart i'm remedies,
and began TO look upon medicine and doctors
with disgust. However, L obtained one of
your circulars, and read il carefully, from
which came to the conclusion that Won nm
derstoOd your business, at least. finally
obtained quantity of DIR. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy, your Golden Medical Discovery
and Pellets, and commenced their vigorous
use according to directions. To my surprise,
soon began to improve. The Discovery and
Pellets, In a short time, brought out a severe
eruption, which continued for several weeks.
l felt much better, my appetite improved, and
i gained I'm strength and flesh. in three
months every vestige of the Catarrh was
gone, the Bronchitis had nearly disappeared,
had no Cough whatever and / had entirely
ceased TO raise blood; and, contrary to the
expectation of some of my friends, the cure
has remained permanent. L have had no
more Hemorrhages from the Lungs, and am
entirely free from Catarrh, from which had
suffered so much and SO long. The debt of
ceived at your hands, knows no bounds. I
am thoroughly satisfied, from my experience,
That your medicines will master the worst
forms of that odious disease Catarrh. as wei.

mended them to very many and shall ever
