| The COMING COMMENCEMENT OF the Uni
yersity promises to be one of high interest.
DR.. Hovey, Of Massachusetts. who delivers
the Sunday evening address before the So
ciety for Religious Inquiry, is a strong
thinker and fine speaker 1t is not every
day that an orator like Judge r. S. Hale,
who delivers the grafton before the Associate
Alumni. can be secured for such an occasion.
With his active intellect, ample fund OF
knowledge of men and things and genial
and earnest spirit, he cannot fail to give
superior Grafton. The poem by DR.. 5. 5.
Cutting, of Brooklyn. it is safe to say, will
be far above the average of Commencement
poetry and the addresses at the celebration
of the Medical Department promise to be of
unusual interest. Some of the other features
also will be noticeable We learn that the
Exhibition in the Park Gallery of Art will
include this year fine collection OF oil
pa intings, by distinguished American art
lists. For this the public will be indebted
to Hon E. j. Phelps. of the Boara OF lrus-
tees of the Gallery, who has secured the
promise of good number of good pictures,
the artists sending them to the gallery
for free exhibition, in order to crafty the
public, assist in cultivating public taste and
to widen their market for their productions.
We shall have fuller details of this exhibi
ton to give to our readers, at an early day.

Holman silver Pad.

AS preventive of any disease that attacksthe vias
the Pad is worth many times its weight in gold. 1t is
which, soithout Medicine, may be absolutely relied
upon to prevent the most, dangerous. maladies.
Nothing is truer than the old saying that Proven
The Pad will prevent Fever and Ague. Worn accord
ing to directions, the most delicate system Ga DEFY
malaria, and come forth as safe as the three Hebrew
furnace of fire. This Is absolutely certain, and has
been progen over and oyer and OUer again.
u 1t will prevent Yellow Fever, chagrss Fever,
Congestive Fever, and fevers of all kinds This has
been tested and proven in so auony instances that
ace state it positively and acithout qualification:
1t will prevent Colds, and protect weak lungs
against confirmed disease. 1t is better than all the
chest-protectors ever made. No one aoas ever
1t will prevent Summer Complaint and keep the
bowels regular. For this purpose alone the Pad
is north nany times its cost IN summer, chen these
1t will prevent Dyspepsia. If you teel the pre-
monitory symptoms OF this hydrG-headed monster
coming on don't gttempt to correct them aoith
Pad. 1t is the best and safest of tonics.
1t will prevent Heart Disease. Organic diseases
of the heart are iucarabe. The true scay to avoid
contracting them is to regulate the first symptoms
By soedring Hotmdn's Pad.
1t will prevent Chronic Internal Rheumatism and
6Menpaga often finally E fatal This has been
joy and gratitude of scores of sufferers, who we're
wise enough to apply the remedy in time.
LII Will pT6F6uG DICK 1edudcH6S. Ii tue Tdu Is put
on when the first symptoms appear, the attack will
be avoided. Think OF this, ye martyrs to the pain
full malady.
In short Holman's Ague and Liver Pad is the
most perfect preventive of diseases affecting the
vita! organs that has been discovered and the
great feature OF the treatment, and the one which
renders it precious beyond estimation, has already
been spoken of. but cannot be too much enlarged
upon. II is that no medicine is taken into the
stomach.
The habit of pouring medicines into the Stomach,
in the hope of curing diseases that depend upon the
Liver, is not only absurd, but wicked.
Endorsed by Ehousands-It has been en-
dorsed by hundreds of thousands of earnest, in
telligent living witnesses. who will tell you that
Holmans Pad is the cheapest most effective, the
pleasantest, most convenient, surest and most
satisfactory curative and preventive and thorough
liver and system regulator yet discovered.
We do not think it extravagant to say that the
Liver Pad marks the beginning of new era in
medicine This happy combination of absor bents,
acting specifically upon the Liver and Stomach,
removes from the system the poisonous principle
which paralyzes its action, and restores a normal
condition of health in manner that is absolutely
wonderful Time was when such proposition
could only have been accounted for upon the the DRY
of Divine OF Internal interpositon; but the age Of
witchcr aft has passed, and men now attribute
results to-lOocal causes.

A GREAT D1scovERY.-Not since the introduce
ton of vaccination by Jenner has any medical dis
covery began to equal in importance that of absorp-
ton, as illustrated in Holman's Liver and Ague
Pad. Strange as it may seem to those who have not
investigated its curative power evidences over
whelming that this simple device, composed Of
vitals liver and stomach, will in remarkably short
space of time, master any of the long catalogue Of
diseases having, their origin in torpid liver or
diseased stom ach. Surely Boston and its vicinity
will give the Pad hearty welcome.

At Salt Lake on the 18th, Robert T. Burton.
leading Mormon, was arrested for the murder
of Joseph Morris in 1862. Morris was proph-
ct who set up against Brigham Young, and
had about 500 followers. Burton was then
marshal of the territory, and arrested Morris
on a trumped up charge. After the arrest he
deliberately shot and killed Morris A woman
said. "This is another Mountain Meadow af-
fair" whereupon Burton shot her. Another
woman said, "You are cold-blooded murder
err" Burton replied, "No woman shall say
that and live" and shot her also. The Nor
mons are much excited at Buttons arrest, and
d. Fl. Wells said, ''you are arresting our best
people and they are getting excited and won't
stand it." Proof of his guilt is positive, and
he is held in $4,000 to await the action of the
grand jury. Brigham Young and other leaders
held secret meeting to consult on the situa-
ton.
A young desperate, named Herbert Blanch-
ard, at Savoy, Mass, was told by Mr. Stark
that he must not visit his daughter, whereupon
he knocked down Mr. Stark, and then shot
both him and his brother who interfered,
wounding both probably fatally Blanchard
