letters stomach Bitters was first brought to
the notice Of the American public. To-day it
is the most popular remedy on this continent
for dyspepsia, liver complaint, constipation,
debility, nervousness, urinary and uterine COM
plants, govt, rheumatism, intermittent and re-
mittent fevers, and is widely used in South and
Central America, Mexico, the West Indies and
Australia, as preventive and remedy for ma
larious disorders, and for many other maladies
record of it's victories is written in the testi-
monials of thousands whom it has cured, to
many Of which the widest publicity has been
given; it has won the emphatic sanction of
leading members Of the medical profession,
and it has repeatedly been made the subject of
encomiums by the home and foreign press.
Comment on the above facts is unnecessary.
We leave the public to draw it's own conclusions.

A Dead Shot.

William Spence, alias Oregon Bill, is
in many respects remarkable man. His
birthplace in Port Natal, South Africa,
and he has hardly yet reached 40 years.
He was at sea for years, and during the
time distinguished himself for his brave
ry in two engagements with pirates on
the coast of Africa. He participated
with credit to himself in the last war with
Russia, and was present at the fall Of
Balaklava.
From 1860 to 1866 he was an Indian
fighter on the frontiers of Kansas and
Texas, and in an engagement with the
red men on an occasion in which the
whites were victorious, after a bloody
hand-to-hand fight, he is said to have
killed seven warriors with his pistol an
bowie-knife.
In Portland, Oregon, he had friend,
John O'Madigan, now of this city. While
O'Madigan was walking along the street
smoking his pipe, and at distance of
ten feet, and at about right angle, Bill
suddenly drew his pistol and fired, the
ball taking the pipe from the mouth Of
his friend, but doing him no harm.

for the examination showed that the
body of the unfortunate man had re-
ceived no less than seven shots. Bur-
nam's face was blackened by powder,
and, with the blood flowing from eyes,
nose and mouth, and the brains oozing
from the head, presented q fearful spec
tacle. There were four balls through
his chest, two in his head and one in his
hand. Billiards. face presented ghast-
" and sickening appearance. A large
bullet had entered just at the side of the
nose, and another at the corner Of the
mouth. Blood in great quantities flowed
from the mouth, and to stop this the
mouth had been stuffed full Of cotton.
Yet this did not have the desired result,
and the black blood slowly oozed from
the mouth and nose, presenting sicken-
ing sight.
Corneilson was shot through the body
and also through the head. The shot
through the body was evidently given in
manner similar to those inflicted on
Burnam, after death. Death seems to
have occurred almost instantly in his
case.
