Detectives Witnesses.
Te the Editor of the National Republican:
SIR: It Is principle in Law, which is as old as
Of men known as detectives is TO be taken with
many grains of allowance or, as the Latins say,
'Erl grGno sails. One Of the most distinguished
writer's upon the rules Of evidence says: From
the nature Of their calling, the tact that they are
necessarily thrown in contact with the most de-
graded classes Of society in which they en- have
TO live and act the lie, renders them peculiarly
nrf:icd 70 go upon the witness stand. y y
Ther cfcTc it has been frequently held that the
liberty, lite or reputation of citizen should not
lie imperilcd by the depositions of such class
GHless supported by corrObOrRtive evidence" H.
deed, know Of no locality rave this District
where detectives allowed to depose in the trial
Of eases The Supreme Court of the District of
columbia recently granted new trial to de-
fencant who was convicted upon the evidence o
enc Of these obscene birds, who, to obtain a con-
fGstOr from the accused, played the role Of pris-
ouer, and caused himself TO be incarcerated in the
same cell with the defendant. 1t is surprising to
reflect upon the ease with which such men as
Cook, Richards, McDevitt Mel Elfresh and others
Of that stamp, succeeded in getting the ear of
Congressmen, who, above all others, should have
known what estimate TO place upon their vile
conspiracy. MT. Murtagh should feel proud of
the fact that he stands too high in the public es
tination to be injured hairs breadth by the
vernln whose fit place would be as gazers
through prison bars.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

IT IS A FACT ESTABLISHED and we'll known
that the Arabians attained height in the knowl-
edge of medicine which caused the whole world to
wonder and admire. With them the science of
chemistry had its birth, and it is therefore not at
all strange that people so eminentIy successful in
the healing art, and so persevering and daring in
character, should, by actual and untIring expert
nent, discover remedies far SURPRISING in efficacy
all Others for the of those diseases incident to
them from their mode of life. The greater part of
their time heing spent in hazardous and bloody
TO tho most violent attacks of rheumatism paralys
Is, neuralgia pains and various intammatory dis
eases also the most horid wounds, sprains brui-
tumprs, swelings, diseases of the joints,
All these diseases they were so surprisingly eff
cient in curing, that the uninitated looked with
wonder and attributed their skill to the powers OF
magic. H G. FARRELL'S ARABIAN LINIMENT
is com position of balsams and oils, from rare
plants peculiar to this country, and it by the
use of the articles composing this great remedy
that not only their physicians, but even the wild
Arabs of the desert were enabled to perform such
i miraculous cures. The Arab steed is world-re-
| nowned for his beautiful symmetry of form, hie
unsurpassed speed and agility, and the incredible
fatigue it is capable of enduring. Why is it? Be-
cause from the time of his birth his limbs
| fully watched, and upon the first appearance OF
disease the magic lotion is applied and such things
as confirmed sweeny, poll-eyil, fstula, r1ngbone,
The same result will follow in all cases where H
G. .Farrel's Genuine Arabian LlH4ment is used in
| time. Therefore delay not in procuring good
supply of it, for every dollar spent in 1t will save
you twenty, and great deal of suffering II MOI
your life.
