SPECIAL NOTICES.

as THE GREAT HEALTH RE
STORER.-In oil ages of the world the skill and
scientific attachments OF man have been direct
ed to q study Of the human system and q dis
covery of the various ills to which it is heir. IT.
after years Of constant application, some distin-
guiShed physician has succeeded i'll compound
ing an agent by which the slightest ache may
be overcome. he has been hailed as a great
beneiactOr of his race, and with great prOpriety
the world have gladly sung pseans to his praise.
This being proper, in the discovery of q remedy
for single disease, how much more indebted
are the whole human family to the inventor OF
BAKERS BfrTERS q medicine that has stood
the test Of time, and proved q panacea for Dys-
pepsia, Diarrhtea, Cholera Morbus, Cramp
Cbolic, Giddiness, Nervous Debility, Loss of D.
petite, and Sour Stomach, while the various
nostrums of quacks and empires have -four
ished for an hour and then disappeared never
again to be revived.
BAKERS BIrTERS are now used in hundreds
of families in Virginia as their only medicine,
and that they are appreciated even by medical
men as a tonic of great virtue, is abundantly at
tested by hundreds of certificates in the hands
of the Proprietor.
BAKERS BITTERS are compounded entirely
of vegetable extracts, which are so harmOni-
Ousy blended that all ages and sexes may use
them with benefit, and without the fear of
the slightest injury. Try them by all means,
and then speak of them to the afflicted as they
deserve.

WHTsKEY MORE PRECIOUS THAN
When we see that Virginia
spends money enough in two years to
pay the whole debt Of the State, and
that many of her citizens would see her
dishonored rather than pay small in
crease of public taxes, the conclusion is
irresistible that those people value drinks
above public honor. Virginians freely
plighted their lives in the defence of the
public honor, and freely poured out
their blood upon many battle-fields to
win for their glorious old mother a
bright and untarnished name. But
when it comes to the question of giving
up liquor to preserve that name intact,
why it seems to be doubtful. Blood in
deed may flow for honor; but whiskey,
that is horse of different color. The
whiskey cannot be given up. Whiskey,
the world will be forced to conclude, is
regarded in Virginia as more precious
than blood Rich. Dispatch.

Staunton Wagon Factory.

We call attention to the advertisement of the
Staunton Wagon Factery-Messrs.G Gibbs. Lick
liter & Shonao. proprietors They have estab-
1ished a factory in this place for the manufac-
ture of farm and spring wagons. buggles, carts,
wheelbarrows, spokes, hubs. farming nipple
ments, sash, doors, blinds, &c. This is an en-
terprise calculated to build up our city and be
of general benefit to the whole community, and
we hope our people will sustain them, and keep
our money at home. If we expect our whole
community to prosper, we must engage In
manufacturing pursuits, and produce soEle-
thing that will not only tend to keep our
money at home, but will attract labor and
money from other sections. The success OF one
enterprise Of this kind will tend to induce the
starting of other enterprises, all of which will
help to strengthen and build up our anguish
ing business interests.
1t affords us pleasure to announce that this
new and important enterprise promises favor
ably to become great success. Though the
time is so short since it commenced operations,
the orders for work are SO numerous as to keep
all the hands busy. None but good mechanics
in all of the departments are employed, and
none but suitable and properly seasoned tim
Der is used in their manufactures, and their
wagons are warranted for one year. Vehicles
and farming implements are repaired, and
horse-shoeing and blacksmithing carried on.-

A FEARFUL DEATH.-RareIy are we
called upon to chronicle SO terrible an
accident as that which befell Mr.. Mich
ael Benne5;; a young man of about %
years Of age, formerly from Fairfax
county, Va, but who, for year past,
had made our county his home. On
Wednesday evening last, while engaged
at the portable saw mill of Mr.. Charles
F. Billopp, saving logs on Mr.. Charles
c.. Hills farm, near this village, by some
mishap he got entangled in the shafts
of the mill; in an instant he was whirl-
ed AROUND the revolving saw, and before
the machinery could be stopped his legs
and head were severed from his body
and literally sawed into atoms. The
remainder of his body was torn into
pieces, causing instant death. His re-
mains were buried in the cemetery OF
st. Mary's Catholic church, near this
village.-MaTsboro' Nd Gazette.
