A Woman's Loss.

1t has now become mooted question:
among scientists whether or not woman's
primitive beauty and vigor, which have been
lost. could not be restored and extended by
the action of certain constitutional agents.
These agents must necessarily regulate and
build up, fortify and antagonize all existing
female irregularities and distractions which
have produced the i'll health, must revitalize
the blood and give youthful bloom to the
checks. The remedy must unload the locked
up secretions, must add red corpuscles to tho
blood, aid digestion and strengthen the feeble.
We are glad to announce that such remsdy
has been found, and thousands of ladies' are
being restored by its use. 1t is known as DR.
Dromgoole's English Female Bitters.

Another Shooting at Alma.

The citizens Of Alma were startled on Fri
day night, about s O'Clock, by the report of a
gun, followed by an alarm that William Friel
had been shot. 1t seems he left Dr. Smiths
drug store, just before s, and went to his
home, which was not a great distance, and,
lust as he was a bout to enter the door, he was
called by two men, who were at the fence,
who wished him to come to them, and as he
approached them, and when within few
steps, he was shot with shotgun, through
the left arm and breast. He was not able to,
and did not, recognize either of the parties.
His suspicious however, rested upon the
brothers of his wife, who, it seems, is sister
of the Deans; she had left Friel because of
most cruel treatment, by him. Assuming
name of Pittcock, and Others went in pursuit
of; or to the residence of, Pink Dean, who
lived some eight miles from Alma. Not find
ing him at home, they started back, and met
him, with another man on the road, and went
back to Deans home, where, as it was late
and dark, they proposed to stay till morning,
guarding their prisoners. In the meantime,
as the story goes, Pittcock went to sleep, and
in fact all the guard did the same, and the two
prisoners got up and took the guns and hor-
ses of the posse, and went oyer to the house OF
a brother--Frank Dean. After good sleep
Pittcock l. Co. woke up to find that their
prisoners had gone. A good deal chagrined
they began to hunt about, and found that the
parties had gone to Frank Deans. On ap-
proacl.ing Deans house, it is claimed by Pitt
cock, cap was bursted on him, justas he got
at the gate; upon that, he played away with
his pistol, and shot Frank Dean through the
arm. On the other hand it is claimed that he
had arrested younger brother, about Is
years old, as an accessory to the shooting OF
Friel, and was abusing him shamefully-tell-
ing him he would make him trott all the way
to Alma on foot. On his brother, Frank Dean
demonstrating against such abuse of prison
er, Pittcock cursed him. and drawing his pis-
tol shot him without any further provocation
Pittcock, it must be remembered, was not an
officer, and had no authority, but if any, it
was of the doubtful kind.
In the shooting of Friel there is no justitl-
cation, although we hear I've has abused his
wife numerically: and. from all we can
learn of the shooting of Frank Dean. it was
an outrage. and should not 60 uninvestiga-
ted; and it is the duty of the sheriff to see
that the law is not violated, whether under
the garb of authority or not
Freil was dangerously if not fatally shot.

Not 4" Standing on the Order OF their
Going"

For two years past our Cherokee neigh
bors have complained long and bitterly that
their rights and privileges were being ruth
lessy assailed, by the presence Of the depot
and railway of the l.. II. f. S. Railway in
their territory. They had got SO trouble
some and PERSISTENT IN their demands for the
company's removal of their property that
arrangements had been made, and the work
nearly completed to go no further than Van
Buren,, and make the crossing to Fort Smith
here. Still. not satisfied, the sheriff of the
Nation embraced in the District opposite
Fort Smith, gave notice that he would on the
22d of January, Tomorrow, sell the depot
building and other property of the company,
as having been contiseated by the Cherokee
Nation. To avoid litigation, or any trouble,
on Sunday last, Supt. Hartman had large
number of hands employed, and the build
ings of the company were taken down, and
transferred across the river to Fort Smith,
where they will be re-erected, for the accom-
dation of their business at that point. At
this hour, not visage of the property Of the
company remains in the Nation, and we i'm
agine that when the Sheriff puts in an ap-
pearance, in the morning, to "knock off to
the highest bidder" the confiscated railroad
property, there will be some tall swearing on
the Cherokee line.
This move makes Van Buren, the terminus
of the l.. X. f. S. railroad for two weeks,
until the iron can be laid on the other side of
the river, and other work completed.
Passengers and mails, going East, will be
brought to Van Buren,, the night before, and
take the train, the next morning. And on
the arrival or the train at night, a" buss'
will take mails and passengers at once to Fort
Smith.
