Wonderful.

From the Pittsburgh Dispatch, Sept. 25th, 1850.
VERY seldom do we read of an actual
case OF recovery, where hope had Alto
gethcr been lost, to parallel that which
was Monday investigated by Dispatch
reporter, who had heard in various quar-
ters persons talking to their friends of a
cure, seemingly little short of marvellous,
that had been performed. The plain facts
in the case referred to, without cxaggera-
ton, arc these, as they were learned from
the mother of the young man, his pastor
and other persons we'll known in the COM
munity:
William Lincoln Curtis Is the name
OF the young man in question. He is now
employed Mt III, X. Porter 81 Co.'s loco.
motive works in Pittsburgh, Pa. A year
ago he resided with his mother on Grant
street. About that time he went to bed
one evening with a violent pain in his
shoulder, the result, he thought, of cold.
The next morning the shoulder was
greatly swollen, the pain was intense, and
aches were felt all through his system.
His case was speedily developed into a
violent form of chronic rheumatism,
among the first notable features of which
was the paralysis of his left arm.
"He gradually grew worse, and in q few
months the elbow and knee joints and
both ankles became enormously enlarged.
In March last the cheek bones began to
enlarge, and upon his LEFT side particu-
larly, spreading his face out of all resem-
blance to his former self. The pain in all
his joints became intense; fever, with its
deteriorating effects, was now added, and
he became rapidly reduced to tho semblance of
skeleton, while vitality reached its lowest
possible condition, and his sufferngs were oil
such an indiscribable character that those who
most loved him sometimes thought IL would BIO
better If he was called away. At this time
physicians we'll known In Pittsburgh In formed
his parents that they could give no hopes OF
recovery.
The young man finally commenced taking
that wonderful medicine, PERuNA. In two
weeks quite change for the better, was per-
ceptiblc. In six weeks all the enlargement had
been reduced completely, while in spirits and
strength the patient was quite rs well as he had
ever been In his life. Nearly three weeks ago
he resumed work as n machinst at his old place,
able 10 perform as much labor as cvcrin his life.
these facts, said Indeed, I can not look upon
the cure much less than ms miracle. do not
hesitate in sounding the praise of PERuNA, and
In recommending it to all my fricnds.'"
The pastor of the church where the Young
man attended Sabbath school was visited, and
he readily confirmed the facts of the deformcd
bones, the emaciatcd condition from disease,
and of the doctors having given him UP. He
was greatly surprised ut his improved condition.
Said he, "lf he had not spoken, I would not
have known him.

A Prosecuted Bird ProbnLly no
bird Ia more generally and unjusily perse.
cn;ed than the familiar crow; every farm
er thinks himself privileged To destroy il,
and counts the death of every one gain
to agriculture. OF course tive bird, IN or
der to save his raceS from extermination,
must employ all his cunning to avoid his
enemies; hence his extreme shyness aud
certain flight at the sight OF any one arm
ed with gun. Thousands of crows are
destroyed every year by guns, uaps and
poisoned grain; and the young birds are
killed in their nests l'y every mrchin who
can climb a tree. Though the crow pulls
up few seeds of terminating corn, his
services TO the agricultural far outweigh
his depredaIions; lie daily devonrs insects,
grubs and worms, which but for him
would devastate whole fields of the young
corn; he delights TO worry the owl, the op
Ossum, and the raccOon, and will pursue
the tl,ievish hawk, and even the eagle,
with all the forces lie can raise. On the
whole the crow is prosecuted, compar- =
atively harmless and indeed most service
able bird. An ornlthologist says, Of farm.
ers, II they persist In killing crows, the
best season for doing so is when the ir corr
begins TO ripen.-Er.

"EAREWELI!"
A School Girls, Essay-By r.. u. w
Fay, April, 9th, 1860.

Yes! farewell loved ones! Farewell my dear
home and friends for a long, long time! How
often this word is spoken with an effort to keep
back the tears. Then you sigh how can leave
this dear home, where have spent so many,
many happy hours, and then the thought will
come, perhaps am leaving all those dear OBJ
jects Of affection forever. Perhaps before /
again enter that loved circle one of those dear
ones may be called to that home above above.
Then we will realize the full import of that
word, farewell. Perhaps 1t is school-mate, n
brother or sister; perhaps our own dear mother.
Then we look back on the day we left. We see
her just as she looked when she gave us the
parting Kiss and said, farewell A mothers
tenderness, mothers prayer, go with you.
And then we look back on the past-an unkind
word spoken to that gentle mother comes I'm
your mind and you say Oh II l could only see
my mother If / could only live my life over
again, would never give her pain. If could
only say forgive me. But she is gone, never to
return again. Let us so live that when the part
ing hour comes onr farewell will not be bitter
one mingled with tears for past wrongs We
have committed.

Sioux FALLS, OAK, Dec. 8.-For
some time the friends and relatives Of
"a. T. Fleetwood, late postmaster at this
place, have anxiously been trying to
learn of his whereabouts. About Sept. 30
he left here for visit to his cid hems in
Wisconsin. From Milwaukee, about six
weeks ago. he wrote to his son here that
he thought of spending dav or tive in
Chicago before coming home. Hearing
nothing further, the son became uneasy
and took steps to trace him up. The
only news 20 far obtained is that his trunk
has been left at q Milwaukee hotel, and th9
proprietor cannot tell where or when the
owner departed. No trace of him in
Chicago or elsewhere can be found. Mr..
Fleetwood is over sixty years of age, of
more than ordinary intelligence and bust
ness capacity. ]. He served during the war
in q Wisconsin regiment and held the
position of postmaster of this city for ten
years. There is little doubt that some
evil has overtaken him in Milwaukee, and
an effort will be made 10 obtain some
clue. He had considerable means and
owed no one.
