As will be seen by the immense advertise
ments, which appear in cur columns this
morning, we are to have one of the largest
and most complete shows that is at present
on the road. We have been disappointed
and deceived until it is real source of graft
6cation to feel assured that at last we will
have an exhibition worthy of patronage. The
Great New York and New Orleans Geological
and Equestrian Exposition, will appear on
our principal streets on Aonday, September 6.
In speaking of this great show, we can do no
better than quote the following from the Buf:
falo IN. ~ Courier:
1.-THE Great New York and New Orleans
Geological and Equestrian Exposition made
its appearance in the city yesterday morning,
and its procession commanded universal ad-
miration. The dromedaries, the music car,
the numerous dens of wild animals, the bril-
liant cavalcade, and the now famous Parisian
calliope, these and the other features which
make mp the cortege, presented highly at
tractive appearance, and made our streets
take on gala appearance. .
although the weather was threatening in
the afternoon, the attendance was very large,
but it remained to the evening to put the
monster circus pavilion to the test. Such an
we have not seen together since
Bsrnum paid us q visit last summer, and
hundreds had to content themselves with an
occasional glimpse of the performance in the
ring. 30 great was the crowd, and so close
the pressure upon the ring, that the perform.
ance did not commence until some time after
the appointed time. In order to relieve the
canvass as far as possible, the manager
authorized his representatives to state that
those who wished, could have their tickets
returned to them, which would be good this
afternoon or evening. About nine hundred
ayailed themselves of the opportunity, but
the great mass seemed disposed to take their
chance. As it is probable that the attend
ance this evening will be very large, we ad-
rise families to 60 in the afternoon. a

pepsia and Liver Complaint or any derange-

Water-brash, gnawing and burning pains at

Tongue, and disagreeable taste in the mouth,
coming up of food after eating, low spirits,
&C., to put off from day to day buying an ar
ticle that they know has cured their neighbor,
friend, or relative, yet they have no faith in
it until it is too late. But if you will go to
your druggist, Chamberlaine, Middletown, or
H P. Baker, Odessa, and get bottle of
GREEN'S AUGUST FLOWER your immediate cure
is as certain as you live. Sample bottles of
this medicine can be obtained for 10 cents to
try its superior virtue. Regular size IS cents.
Try it, two doses will relieve any case.

destitute circumstances, with half a
dozen children, and unable to pay the
balance owing on the machine, when
the agent came around to take the ma

he should not remove the machine un.

the money that had been paid on it by

ODESSA, DELAWARE, August 2sth, 1875.
Mr.. Edstor-In justice to my friend,
Mr.. VIM. P. Mif1in, would most
earnestly beg that you will give the
following (Which is true account Of
the accident that occurred on Sunday
last) place 10 your next issue. The
account, as published BY you, is far
short Of the real facts; therefore, as I
say above, 10 justification Of Mr.. Mif-
Ain, and in order that the public may
not receive wrong impression, you
will greatly obligeI me BY. giving room
in your paper to the following: Mr.
Mi6ain and myself left the latter's house
shortly after dinner Of Sunday last and
proceeded to the M. E. Sunday School
Of Odessa. We both went in. but Mr..
MiMin complained Of the heat and
going out alone to his buggy placed
one cartridge 10 his revolver Gas be
always carries it loaded after night and
keeps the cartridges in his carriage.) J
He then placed it in his pocket and
started for the Presbyterian Sunday
School, stopping on his way back at
Asprils foundry to examine some cast
ings. Whilst there (unfortunately for
ali as it happened) Mr.. VIM. Rose and
myself came up. After little talk
Mr.. Mif1in proposed that We should. 90
back to the Sunday School. At this
moment l picked up The revolver which
Mr.. Miflin had laid on some boards,
Mr.. Rose having been locking at it,
and Mr.. Mif6in had forgotten it for the
time), and saying in playful manner,
'sBill, you son-of.a-g gun" fred. As
he pistol is a self.oocking one, and as
L was all done in an instant, my friend
had not the slightest chance to turn
aside the weapon or even realize the
leadly peril in which his life was placed.
Mr.. Miflin had not been pointing
he pistol at me nor I at him previous
o the shooting; and I am gerry sorry |
hat the public and our friends should
,e lead to suppose that Mr.. Mif1in
,laced the cartridge in bis pistol with
he intention Of frightening me, for
uch was not the case. These, Mr.. |
editor, are the facts, and the under
igned being party very deeply con-
'erned in the unfortunate affair, cannot
'e mistaken, as was your reporter Of
o-dsy's paper. Asking you again to
axe uery particular notice of this ex- |
! am yours very respectfully
