SEEKERS AFTER apEALTEa.

Uniortunates who are seeking tn renew
their health, are many. 81 noiten have they
been deceived by the advertisements of
worthless compounds, that many are dis
eoaragrd, and refuse u believe anything
they read in the papers. Therefore. the
hssl advertisement of really good medi.
cine is the reputation it has gained in places
where it is being sold. No other remedy
ever discovered has grown so rapidly ~
public favor as that true medicinal tonic
called Browns Iron Bitters. In localities
where its extraordinary merits have become
fully known and realized by those who
have been in ill-health, the sale is unure-
cedeRted. One druggist IN our city reports
the sale euf 23S bottles in one week. II is, in.
decd, wonderful heallh-giying. ltr-sav-
ing preparation. II is snothing aud refresh
ing ia its effect, and strengthens every part
Of the body, aud creates healthy appetite
and digestion, even when the system Is
almost destroyed by the many hurllul
ca'harics 81 commonly used. Reader, be.
warel duty demands thst YOU try Browns
Iron Billers, II your health is poor from any
eG0As.-- Esquirty.

pris'ug he Board Of Management OF
the Burlington County hospital called
to their aid the ladies' Of this and sur.
rounding towns for the purpose OF
giving an entertainment in behalf OF
the above Institution. At their meet
iug the ladies decided to give a grand
supper, fair and entertainment at the
Court House on Friday and Saturday

the intention to have an excellent
supper provided in the Grand jury
room and 10 addition to offer for ex-
hibition q handsome collection Of
works of art, and for sale an assort-
ment offancy articles &c. The young
ladies who are taxing such an active
part, have been cheered "a encour-
aged by the response to their efforts
through the county. 1t is hoped
that all friends Of this most noble
charity throughout the county, will
be on hand both days, and that the
proceeds will be so large as to war
rant the managers in repeating the
same later in the season. The price
Of admission 6 ceDts) is SO small that
no one can plead poverty. Every
drlicacy of the season will be offered.
An extra train for Philadelphia and
way stations, via Burlington, will
leave Mount Holly on Friday and
Saturday evenings at 10 80, for the
accommodation of visitors to the hos
ptal supper.

Company + boys came home from
YORKTOWN on Sunday morning The
boys looked we'll, but some showed
the effects of their camp life as they
were suffering from colds. They feel
proud to think that they helped to
carry of the grand prize won by the
Jersey troops for discipline and gen
eral department. The prize consists
ofa large gold-lined silver vase, val
ued at $1,000. A finely chiseled sill
yer statuette of sthe father of his
country" surmounts the vase. 1t il
reported that it is to be exhibited in
the cities aud towns which were repre-
sented at Yorktown, and if so we shall
have chance to see it when it is
placed on exhibition 10 Mount Holly.
Captain Merritt congratulated his
men on their arrival at the Armory,
for their eenrlemanly department and
soldier-like bearing while away, he
not having an occasion to speak to
any one under him.. We congratu-
late them on the record they made.
There was some unpleasantness cor
nected with Yorktowo centenn al,
notwithstanding its many enjoyable
features. The Boston Herald of Sat-
urday reports an alleged conversation
between General Hancock and Col.
Strachsn, of the Ninth sachusetts
Regiment, which represented tina,
State at the centennial, in which G n
eral Hancock is reported as having
spoken slightinely Of General Grub.
1t is also asserted in the article that
the latter circulated false reports about
the Ninth for the purpose of throw
ing odium on it aud benefting his
own command.
One Of the officers of the Battalion
was Interviewed on the subject and
appeared mach surprised that any
such charge should have been made
against his commander. General
Grubb," said be, "is too mnch of
gentleman to do any ssch thing, and
| have too high an opinion of General
Hancock to believe that be uttered
any language such as is attributed to
him. During the whole OF the time
that General Grub was at Yorktown
General Hancock showed him marked
deference;.in fact more Difference was
shown him than to any one else, ex-
cept the French guests. If then Gen
eral Haucok expressed himself as he
is reported to have done it was 10 fat
contradiction with his actions, which
were uniformly affable and kind to-
wards New Jerseys commanding Off
Ger. you wish to know anything
about the Ninth inquire 10 regard to
their actions at Richmond. IF you
took the troub you would get, dare
say, more than you could publish and
would not then feel it necessary to
test the veracity of reports about Ger
eral Grub coming from such
source" =
1t is needless for Us to add that
General Grub is gentleman of too
high standing to circulate any report
against brother officers command
The whole story scenes to US, to De
nothing more than lying newspaper
correspondents tale.
