from the Hon. James Ross. Grand Lecturer OF 1. o.
I. of Wisconsin
From a feeling of gratitude, ! take
great pleasure in giving testimony to the eff
eacv OF Hale's Cough Cordial in easily curing
a persistent cough. For a month while en-
gagged nightly in public speaking, | had SUI
fered with an annoying cough which stub
bornly resisted the various cough remedies
That I had taken. Through the advice OF
friends | fortunately gave Hale's Cough Cor
dial a trial, when my coughing eased at once,
and the following day it had done its work
complete and | felt all right. The first dose
went directly to the cold spot in my lungs;
and in the midst OF e general warmth and
perspiration the stubborn cough seemed 10
dissolve. In gratitude and esteem, am

tn Last Move in The Beecher Scandal.

After Frank MOultOn discontinued
his suit in the Beecher scandal, in which he
prosecuted for alleged malicious prosecutions,
Mr.. Sherman, counsel for Beecher, thought
lie was entitled to some extra allowance for
his valuable legal services, and consequently
made application in the Supreme Court for
81 500 for such allowance. The Court de-
cided that he had fixed the value Of his servi-
ces just ten times too high, and awarded him

About two hours after the conver-

smoke in the direction Of Severn street.

that was slowly, turning now and then
to watch tbs progress of the flames.
When reached the Angel inn at ISL

was bright, a glorious, a furious, a
hot fire, and l hoped that the old man
and the old woman were IN lt-and

turned my face from the fire for
the last time, and from London for
ever. When, in tie morning, ] reach
ed the town of Barnet, the streets were
full of the terrible catastrophe which
had occurred the night before-of the
burning of a man and woman and boy
to death.
No sympathy at all was expressed
for the old people, ':because they had
locked the boy in the garnet !; but
every heart was bleeding with pity
for the "poor little boy. So easy 1t

than know the truth.
