kT THE GREAT HEALTH RE-
STORER.-In all ages of the world the skillAnd
scientific attachments of man have been direct
ed to study of the human system and a dis
cOvery OF the various ills to which it is heir, IT.
after years of constant application, some distin-
gu1shed physician has succeeded in compound
ing an agent by which the slightest ache may
be overcome, he has been hailed as a great
benefaotOr of his race, and with great propriety
Inc world have gladly sung paeans to his praise.
This being proper, in the discovery of remedy
for 81 single disease, how much more indebted
are the whole human family to the inventor of
BAKERS BITTERS, o medicine that has stood
the test of time, and proved panacea for Dys-
pepsia, Diarrhpa, Cholera Morbus, Cramp
Cholic, Giddiness, Nervous Debility, Loss Of APP
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 BITTERS are now used in hundreds
of families in Virginia as their only medicine,
and that they are appreciated even by medical
men as tonic of great virtue, is abundantly at
tested by hundreds of certificates in the hands
OF the Proprietor.
BAKER'S BITTERS are compounded entirely
of vegetable extracts, which are so harmoni-
ously blended that all ages and sexes may use
them with benefit, and without the fear OF
the slightest injury. Try them by all means.

DISTRESSING RAILROAD AccIDEN

DISTRESSING RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
On Sunday night of last week dis
tressing accident occurred on the Rich
mond, Frederic & Potomac Railroad, on
the express train going North, when
about 2 miles from Milford station and
about 40 miles from Richmond. Whilst
going down defending grade the two
sleeping cars broke their coupling, and
by mistake of brakeman or passenger
the bell-rope was pulled which was a
signal for the engineer to stop the train.
The conductor signalled the engineer to
go ahead, but before the train had got
ten up sufficient speed, the sleeping cars
ran upon it, and crushed some of the
passengers who had gone upon the plat
form to see what was the matter. The
scene was heart-rending.
Mr.. w. G. Mainwaring of Richmond,
Secretary of the President of the Road,
was killed, and Mr.. John w. Aldridge,
the Foreman and business manager of
the Fredericksburg NeaUs SO badly in
jured that he died ON Wednesday night.
He was in the 4lst year of his age and
leaves widow and four children. He
was native OF Fredericksburg.
Maj. L. f. Donnelly of Charleston,
w. Va, had both legs so badly crushed
as to require amputation. His condi-
ton is critical.
Mr.. Frank J. Faulkner of Richmond,
an Anglo Virginian, was SO badly injured
as to require the amputatiOn of one of
his legs. Several other persons were
injured, though not severely.

ASTOUNDING FALSEHOODS!
AN LNFA NOUS LIBEL ON STA UNION
AND THE VALLEY REFUTED

We find the following in the New York Times
of the End inst. Every citizen of Staunton knows
that it is tissue of falsehOods from beginning
to end To give the narrative an appearance OF
truthfulness, the writer names various persons
as authority for his ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and
others-but with two or three exceptions, no
such persons live in Staunton. The Druggists
of Staunton have taken steps to ascertain who
the author of this libel on whole community is,
and to correct his false statements, by very
full and satisfactory report on the subject, from
which it viii be seen that, instead OF l00lbs be-
ing used by the people of this community every
week, there is only about Solbs sold-in every
shape and fornl-in twelve months. The state
ment made by our Druggists are fully endorsed
by many of our leading practicing Physicians
AS far as we know or believe, the consump-
ton of opium in the Shenandoah Valley, from
Staunton to Winchester, is not greater than in
any portion of the United States, of the same
extent. We have neither time nor space this
week for further comments
