A Freouent but Fatal Mistake.

As the Irishman, who had Just landed
and refused to pick up dollar, think
ing to go where they were "thicker,"
came to want, so those who fancy that a
cough or cold will cure itself, and refuse
to use DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery, often die with consumption.
This great remedy is an unsurpassed
pectoral and blOOd-purifier. 1t speedily
cures cough or cold, and consumption
in its early stages readily yield to it. 1T
has no known equal in controlling and
curing al scrofulous tumors, ulcers, and
eruptiOns. Some fancy because the Dis
colery is adUertjsed TO cure ride range OF
disease Il cannot cure any. Now, let us see.
Suppose a surgeon be setting a limb,
could he not truthfully say that his
treatment would gradually overcome all
faintneSs, nausa, dizziness, weakness and
lameness? Each symptom different, yet
all dependent upon the same cause. By
this process the Golden Medical Dis
covery cures many diseases, though all
are dependent upon impoverished blood
and general debility. Read the Peoples
Common Sense Medical Adviser careful
ly. Dr. Pierce's method of medication
is therein fully explained.

Sold Again,

Yesterday afternoon joke was per-
petrated in South Wheeling, and il car
ried further would have stirred the
Eighth ward to its depths. Some boys
were carrying a small scow to the river
preparatory TO starting on a fishing ex-
petition. A bystander called out TO
know what that was, and one OF the
BOYS. putting on very lugubrious face
and tone, said it was the body of a man
who had Just been shot. And this
story spread like wildfire, increasing in
size and detail as it sped. But some of
the boys feared the consequences and
fastened to correct the error, but not
until a Justice had been taken in" and
half OF a coroner's jury notified.

That Cutting Scrape.

After thorough and searching in
vestigation Yesterday, it would seem
that the sensational rumOr in regard to
the cutting affray in South Wheeling on
Tuesday evening, was an invention cut
from whole cloth. There was no dis
turbance i'm Koch's saloon or none in
Kloepner's, as was intimated by our
morning contemporary. The rumor
was given the press and police in good
faith, and was merely published at its
worth. Butler and Robinson were
found intact yesterday morning and at
work as usual, so that neither of them
could have been carved up on the night
preceding. And once more all is quiet
on the Potomac.

VANCOUVER, W. I. JAN. :, 1879.
MR. EDErUR, Dere Sur: i want to ask your
opinion about a matter OF mony, as odeturs
gcnerly know about these things. At times
along last year the pecpul had n good dccl
OF talk about the government being going to
resoom spccias payings on the lust of this
year, and they told me it uent that green
backs and gold wud he all the same about
this time, aud that the government was going
to give ont gold money for the grecuhack
money. So saved up all could get u hold
on aud got nine dollars, and was looking
ont for the time when the reasoning would
come on, and the fus, paper got hold OF.
which it was the Weakly Oregoniun, found
twas ali o. X, and chat New York, Phil
delfy, Baltimore, Chicager and them other
big towns was all resumed and was mitey
glad, for my nine dollers in grecnbacks was
all rite Bat don't feel so sure about that
now, for why (:l in the daley Orcgoniun
printed to-day see that in New York gold
is par and So is greenbacks, but in Portland,
the iinnans!ul pecc says gold is par still, but
the legal ten,!ers (wich means grcenbacks, J
is par too when when the banks sells them,
but only 30 & 4 half when you sell to them,
SO my nine dollars is not full face Now,
wat want to find out is this, do you think
Portland is going tn back down the other
places and make them not resoom. or would
you hold on to vour nine dollers if you was
me and see witch will back out, the Cover
ment of the United States or Portland!
Wich would you tye too; witch do you
think will come out, Portland or Unkle sam.
| want my nine dollars to come out May
be it's just the freeze up, and Portland don't
know no better. Shal i jest hold ON?
mean to my nine dollars. May be the
Oregoniun man is froze still and don't know
about the rcsoonun.
Yours to command,
ABRAHAM WILKINS.
