any case of catarrh they cannot cure yet not

they are seldom called upon to pay the reward,
and when they have been 50 called upon they
have universally found that the failure to cure
was wholly due to some overlooked complica-
ton, usually easily removed by slight modi-
fication of the treatment. Therefore, if this
should meet the eye of anybody who has made
faithful trial Of this great and world-famed
Remedy without receiving perfect and per-
manent cure therefrom, that person will do well
to either call or write to the proprietors, the
Worlds Dispensary Medical Association, of
Buffalo, n. Y, giving all the particulars and
symptoms in the case. By return mail they
will get good advice free of all costs.

At one time in the history of the Con
federacy, the refugees became so numer-
Gus in the towns and villages remote
from the path of armies, that the good
citizens of the safe and pleasant places
were seriously annoyed. The invaders
were in their most sacred places, like the
plague in Egypt, entered into their
houses, and even their churches were it,
tested.
A worthy congregation of Virginia
town had complained that their pews
were occupied by refugees, often to the
exclusion of Their own families, and
their pastor was requested to give notice
from the pulpit that all refugees could
be accommodated in the gallery.
Accordingly, on one bright Sunday
morning the church as usual had its full
complement of obnoxious visitors, when
at the proper time the reverend gentle
man arose and gave the notice as re-
quested.
The refugees, though already seated
and disposed to mind their prayers, arose
at once, some with heightened color and
tossing heads, and went into the gallery
After the disturbance caused by the
move was over, the pastor gave out the
hymn, which he had unrehectingy
selected. 1t was
Haste, my soul, Oh, haste away,
To seats prepared above"
A litter went around the gallery, and
the congregation seemed much ANNOYED A.;
even the minister, before he finished his
verse, saw how unfortunate his selection
was, and all seemed to feel how ridicu-
lous it made them appear. Bic.

old original Sioux chief Red Cloud, has
been in Cheyenne for some days, and
has had a cheap" good time generally.

Thomas Peyton, who was bound over
by Justice Hart on the charge OF bur
glary and grand larceny, arrived in
Cheyenne on Sunday evening from
Fort Laramie, in charge of a deputy,
and was lodged in Jail. Our reporter
called on him yesterday afternoon on
invitation, and had a talk with him.
He claims that the whole matter is a
trumped up charge and grows out of a
desire on the part Of some parties at
Fort Laramie that want to get rid of
him, for fear that he might tell of some
things which would not sound very
well in regard to some of the people in
that region. He thinks he can get bail
in q short time.

The w%sstbound train between Green
River and Granger, on the Union Pa
cihc, recently encountered a band OF
1000 or 1900 antelopes. The snow
was quite deep and drifted in places,
and the antelopes were running on the
road bed. finding that the easiest road
to travel in. When they were first en-
countered many of them were killed,
and the engineer, seeing that the train
might be derailed unless it was slowed
up, decreased the speed. The antelopes
kept a short distance ahead Of the en-.
CINE, and then they would stop, turn
around and watch the headlight until
the engine was fairly upon them. They
delayed the train half or three-quarters
of an hour.-Boomerang.

caiaboose, as he was, it is said, justified
in what he did. At the place in ques-
ton, two or three games are run. The
party arrested claimed to have been
cheated by the dealer OF the game and
went for" him. The dealer, as it was
explained to our reporter, ran out to
get "a gun, =" but before he returned, the
arrest had been made. The party ar
rested, who does not desire to have his
name mentioned, claims to have been
