From the Rev. ID. J. Clark,

Pastor Congregational Church, East Ha-
 ven, Conn.
 It affords me great pleasure to add my tes- timony to, that of others in favor of Dr. LighthilI's success in the cure of catarrh. His treatment of my wife has proved so ben eficia1 that cheerfully recommend him to the confidence of the afflicted. The catarrh in the case of my wife was of long standing and in it's worst form, against which many remedies had been tried in vain. The very first treatment applied by Dr. Lighthin per- manently removed some of the most trouble some features and the results ever since have been of the most gratifying character. Our people may congratulate themselves on hay ing at their command the services of 8 phy- sician so skillful Dr. Lighthill in the treat ment of that troublesome disease, catarrh.

That the credit of Boston is good and that rates of interest are tending very low for secure investments, is shown by the negoti- ation of Boston's $1 ,0Oo, ,OOO loan at 35 per cent. The loan is about equally divided be- tween a national bank and savings institu- ton. At the current prices of government four per cents, money invested in them pays about 3 I'll per cent, and when four per cent. securities sell at no, stocks and invest naturally in demand at high figures.

HORRIBLE.

DANvILLE, Va, July 9.-Last
night about midnight Thos. De
J arnette entered bagnio here and
inquired for Mollie De Jarnette, an
inmate thereof. She appeared and
recognized him as her brother, and
at his request went with him to a
private room. A few minutes after
ward repeated pistol shots were
heard from the room. The police
were called in and found the door
fastened, they broke it down and
discovered the girl lying on the
floor weltering in blood and her
brother standing by her with pistol
in hand. He Immediately con-
fessedI IhavingIshot her and averred he
had done it to wipe out the disgrace
of his family by his sisters conduct.
He surrendered himself to officers
and has been committed to jail He
declares his willingness to accept
the penalty of the law. Medical
examination showed that the girl
was shot in five places, two wounds
at least being necessarily fatal, and
that she cannot survive. She pro-
tests that her brother was right in
taking her life and begs that he be
not punished, On their separation
after the tragedy the brother and Sis
ter embraced with mutual forgiveness
and tears of grief. The girl is only
II years old, and went wrong but a
few months since. She is remarka-
bly, intelligent and fne>looking.
Her brother is about twenty and is
railroad agent and telegraph oper~
ator at Browns Summit, N. G. Her
mother is the widow of DR.. James
De Jarnette, and lives in CasWell
county, N. O., near Danville.

that occasion when Gen. Hancock
gave his written opinion 10
Gen. Grant that he should take up
a line Of retreat and withdraw the
advancing army to this side of the
Rapidan as measure Of safety. other
wise the army would be annihilated
and the cause lost. AT the close OF
the interview, Gen. Grant handed to
each of the corps commanders present
sealed orders, which were to be opened
simultaneously at q given time and
acted under. These officers anticipated
that these orders related to q retreat,
and made up their minds that they
would soon be out of the very tightest

The Post of this morning says !:
It is no secret that some of the most
important members of the cabinet
share in the views of the marquis of
Lansdoune, and there are others,
though not holding high office, who
have been striving and are still seek
ing to induce the government to
withdraw from the obnoxious posts
tion they have taken up.
The News regrets Lord Lansda~
rone's resignation, although it be>
lieves he acted under a mistaken
apprehension of the character and
scope of Mr.. Forster's measure.
The Daily News this morning
says the delay in bringing forward
the Indian financial statement will
attract remark. 1t is the impress
sion that some large reform is con-
templated by the government relat-
ing to the Liabilities of India.
A Berlin dispatch to the Times
says the Turkish diplomacy contin>
ue to declare that the porte cannot
but regard the resolutions of the
Btclin conference as arbitrary, and
that it is impossible to concede SO
large a territory. If the Sultan
agreed to do SO he would on one
hand lose all trust with the Mos
lem's, and on the other be unable
to pacify different tribes in the
ceded districts. The porte will, there
fore, very probably try to ex'
postulate and shirk from car
rying out the wishes of the
powers by bringing forward
new explanations. But the porte
must be convinced that the intention
of the powers are this time very Sc
rious, and that the reopening of the
eastern question by war would GER
tainly end in the total destruction
of the Turkish empire in Europe
Nevertheless, the opinion prevails
in political circles here that the
porte will decline to accept the reso,
lutions Of the conference, and that
it will be impossible to prevent
bloodshed between the Turks and
Greeks.
