MEDICAL


GENTLRMRN:-About twelve years ago, while
travelling with Father Kemp's Old Folks Concert
Troupe as a tenor singer, took severe cold and
was laid up at Newark, N. j. This cold brought
on a severe attack of Catarrh which battled with
every known remedy for four weeks without avail
and was finally obliged to give up most desirable
position and return home unable to sing note.
For three years afterwards was unable to sing at
all. The fret attack of CatarIh had left my nasal
organs and throat sensitive that the slightest
cold would bring on fresh attack, leaving me
prostrated. In this way continued to suffer. The
last attack, the seyerest ever had was terrible.
suffered the most excruciating pain in my head.
was so hoarse TO be scarcely able to speak, and
coughing necessarily. thought was going into
quick consumption, and firmly believe that had
these symptoms continued without relief they
would have rendered me an easy victim. When in
this distressing condition, commenced the uee Of
SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE PoR CATARRH, very re-
luctantly confess had tried all the advertised
remedies without benefit. The first dose of this
wonderful medicine gave me the greatest relief. II
Is hardly possible for one whose head aches eyes
ache who can scarcely artculate distinctly on &c
count of the choking accumulaiions in his throat,
TO realize how much relief obtained from the first
application of SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE. Under
iis influence both internal and external rapid
recovered, and by an occasional use of the remedy
since have been entirely free from Catarrh for the
first time in twelve years.

New YORK, Sept. IA dispatch from
Wilkesbarre, speaking of the strike of the

believe the worst features of communism

committees, who are scattered through the
country, aud wherever their requests for
provisions are denied force is used. Barns,
orchards. stock yards and cellars are indis
criminatey plundered. Valuable COWS are
killed and their hides left where they are
slaughtered; itinerant peddlers are plum
dered of their packs. and potato fields are
invaded and their produce carried off.
Governor Hartranft has determined to
place regiment of three months men in
the disturbed districts to cooperate with
