Every moment of delay makes your cure more
hopeless, and much depends on the judicious choice
of remedy The amount Of testimony in favor Of
DR.. Schenck's Pumonic Syrup, as cure for con.
sumption, far exceeds all that can be brought to
support the pretensions of any other medicine. See
DIR. Schenck's Almanac, containing the certificates
of many persons Of the highest responsibility, who
have been restored to health after being pronounce
ed incurable by physicians of acknowledged abili-
ty. Schencks Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured
many, as these evidences will show; but the cure
is often promoted BY the employment of two other
remedies which Lr. Schenck provides for the pur-
pose. These additional remedies are Schenck's
Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills. BY the time
ly use OF these medicines, according to directions,
DR.. Schenck certifles that most any case Of Con-
sumption may be cured.
DR.. Schenck will be at the QUINCY HOUSE, Bos-
TON on the following WEDNESDAYS, from to 3
O'clock Jan 18Th and 27th, Feb. 10th and 24th, and
March 10Th and 2ith. Consultation free but for a

The Death Of Cant. Mullen.

On the 10th we recorded the death in New Or
leans Of Capt. Richard W. Mullen, formerly Of
this State, and whose mother. sister and other
friends live in North Vassaboro. As many OF his
friends reside in this vicinity who would like to
know more Of the particulars of his death, we copy
from letter written by friend who was with him
in his last hours, the following information. He
died at the st. Charles Hotel in New Orleans. He
had been i'll and sleepess for several nights, took
audanum as a saporifc about seven P. NJ. on Sat
urday He unfortunately took what proved to be
too much for one in his feeble condition, from the
effects Of which he died at one A. NJ. on Sunday.
His body was placed by the Masors of Louisiana
Relief Lodge of New Orleans in their masonic
tomb. The letter bearing the information, was
addressed to the mother Of the deceased, and con-
cludes thus:
mo words which are at my command can at
ford you consolation for the loss Of your son; but
it will. know bring relief to your heart to know
that your son was beloved and respected by his
old comrades in arms that they gathered around
his death bed and used every possible means to
avert the fatal result and that the spirit released,
they, with his masonic brothers, paid to the poor
clay, which had once been comrade and brother,
every duty and respect which it could have receiv-
ed at the hands of his mother"
The remains will be brought to Nassalboro' for
interment
