"GERMAN NO other medicine in the
world was ever given such a test of its curative
qualities as Boschee's German Syrup. In three
wears two million four hundred thousand bot
ties of this medicine were distributed free q
charge by druggists in this country to those af-
fllcted with Cons umptiou, Asthma, Group,
severe Coughs, Pneumonia, and ether diseases
of the Throat and Lungs, giving the American
people undeniable proof that German Syrup
will cure them. The result has been that Drug
gists in every town and village in the United
States are recommending it to their customers.
Go to your Druggist, and ask what they know
abcrt it. Sample Bottles 10 cents. Regular
size rs cents. Three doses will relieve any
case.

| land railroad, which terminates mere, suffers
greatly. prt.
Staunton-river bridge, an iron structure
on that road, gave way at 2. NJ. to-day
The bridges ct Galveston, Fall Creek, and
| Dry Fork, on the same road, also washed
away. In addition to these,
MANY TREsTLEs HAVE BEEN CARRIED AWAY,
| and the roadbed Is washed up in many
places. Communication by rail and tele-
graph with Lynchburg is entirely broken.
In this city excitement and anxiety runs
high. The water in the Dan river is within
foot and half OF the city free bridge,
which connects the city with the county,
and the water being still rising rapidly,
there is scarcely any hope that the bridge
will stand until morning. If the bridge
goes the Richmond and Danyille Railroad
bridge which spans the same a hundred
yards below will also be lost.
! THIS BRIDGE CANNOT BE REPLACED. r
for less than hundred thousand dollars.
The city gas-works, the immense foundry
and machine-shops Of Corbin & West
brook, and the lumber-yards Of Womack
g. Heidelberg, are submerged. The lowest
part of the city, known as Jerusalem, has
suffered much. Nearly a dozen houses
have been swept away, and as many more
are beyond hope. .ss .-.... 49,
The canal, which supplies several mills
and machine-shops with water, is broken
and the embankments washed away. 1t is
impossible at present to estimate the loss.
LOSSES.
Corbin & Westbrook's loss will reach
$4,000. W. Z. Crews, owner Of canal pro-
perty, will lose several thousand. The city
gas-works' loss cannot be estimated yet.
The city is tonight in great darkness on &C.
count OF the freshet. Womack & Heidle-
berg's loss in lumber and coal will reach
So, 900. Most OF the houses washed away in
the lower part Of the city are cheap tene-
ment-houses, occupied for the most part by
negroes. The main part OF Danvile being
situated on a bluff, far above the higl-water
mark, there is
no APPREH ENsION OF DAMAGE oS ANY OF THE
PRINCIPAL STREETS.
In North Danvile but little damage has
been reported. One Westinghouse, which
stood the great freshet OF 1870, has been
swept away. The mills and machine-shops
OF Boisscau & Flippen have suffered some by
the breaking OF the dam. Immense RATS
OF lumber, cord-wood, shingles, hay-stacks,
&C., arc being washed down the river. This
gives some idea of the destructiyeness Of
the freshet above here. So far I have heard
OF no loss OF life. The river is still rising,
and greater damage is feared tonight.
